Chapter 661 Grand Strategy

The "Destroyer" attack plane was used to attack the Sonia border guards in White Fang City. It took off and landed from Nicholas City Airport, and it was barely within the strike range of the "Destroyer".

Although Lu Ming didn't come to the battlefield in person, the armored train broke into White Fang City and blossomed from the center, directly connecting the Sonia Frontier Infantry Command, which was already in chaos after the violent air raid.

The third wave of strong attacks came from the First Infantry Regiment of the Petroleum Corps, which completely defeated the chaotic Sonia border guards.

Hundreds of corpses were left behind, more than 2000 wounded and prisoners were left, and the rest were defeated. Moreover, the regimental system was completely disrupted, making the defeat uncontrollable. Some deserters were terrified by the bombing of the plane, and even Fleeing for hundreds of kilometers, they fled to the western border of the Kingdom of Sonia before being collected.

Probably some of the defeated soldiers disappeared in the desert.

There is no clear border between the Kingdom of Sonia and the city-state area. In fact, there is a gradual buffer zone. Between the real city-state area and the border station of the Kingdom of Sonia, there is a buffer zone of more than [-] kilometers, most of which are desert areas. , there are very few people living, a few frontier residents live in the desert oasis, and there are also desert thieves who specialize in picking up trains.

Some deserters probably got stuck in it and couldn't get out again.

In short, in the city-state area and the border area, the First Infantry Division of the Northwest Frontier Defense of Sonia gathered more than [-] remnants and defeated generals.

If it is confirmed with the results of the city-state coalition and the "volunteer army", hundreds of people are missing.

In fact, after the successful raid on White Fang City, the "Alliance Army" quickly retreated to Black Fang City on the southeast border of the Nicholas city-state, and began to build fortifications to prepare for the next fierce battle.

Black Fang City and White Fang City are actually of the same ethnic group, but Black Fang City belongs to the land conquered by Nicholas.

The "Allied Forces" sent a telegram requesting a ceasefire to Punk Corporation.

In the telegram, the "Alliance Army" still believed that it was the Punk Trading Company that was in conflict with it, but it was obvious that the Punk Trading Company had bribed the military at the border post and used the military's power to invade the city-state alliance. That's why the Battle of White Fang City occurred. misunderstandings and tragedies.

……

In the large conference hall of the left castle where the "Representative Li" of Nicolo City lived, more than [-] city-state lords gathered, discussing something chaotically.

The small conference hall on the second floor was filled with Lu Ming, regiment leader Feng Qifa, regiment political training director Gao Yaohan, and Ni Luozi.

In front of the exhibition board with the map of the Western Regions and the western part of the Kingdom of Sonia, Lu Ming paced and said, "What is the worst outcome? The heavy Sonia troops gathered in the west will overwhelm us, and our defense line in Black Fang City will not be able to hold back , then, we will give up positional warfare, give up all the big cities in the Nicholas city-state, including the cities of our coalition city-state, and we will fight guerrillas with the Sonia in the future. We will destroy all the railway lines in the Nicholas city-state .”

Feng Qifa and Gao Yaohan looked at each other in blank dismay, while Ni Luozi's expression was bleak.

Lu Ming said: "Don't think this is a failure..."

Feng Qifa hesitated and said: "Our Petroleum Corps..., plus the recruitment of volunteers in Xiheishan Fort, may not be..."

Lu Ming waved his hand: "No, unless the Sonias must march westward to attack West Montenegro Fort, otherwise, we will delay the arrival of the decisive battle on the Western Front." Pointing to the map, "Our corps retreated to the west of the city-state of Supiro, Make the Sonia people understand that if we cross the Supiro, it is time for us to declare war with the Kingdom of Sonia."

"The Sonia people are not determined to fight a decisive battle with our Western Region forces, because they also understand that West Montenegro Fortress is an extremely difficult bone for them to rely on the western frontier defense forces alone."

"Our attack on their border guards, as well as our head-to-head confrontation with them in Black Tooth City, will make them aware of this."

"And once they occupy nearly two-thirds of the city-state land in the Western Regions, including the Nicholas city-state, they should fully satisfy their sense of glory. They have returned ten times and a hundred times the blow they suffered."

While Lu Ming was speaking, Feng Qifa and Gao Yaohan shook their heads and sighed, and Ni Luozi was even more gloomy.

According to intelligence, the Sonias have mobilized five divisions from the west and are gathering towards the western border.

Obviously, the disastrous defeat of the First Division of the Western Frontier Defense angered the senior leaders of the Sonia military and was determined to teach the Montenegrins and the so-called city-state coalition forces a painful lesson.

Both Feng Qifa and Gao Yaohan believed that Representative Li would definitely make the Petroleum Corps into an army. It was an armed force of nearly 2 people in a division. In addition, recruiting volunteers from various city-states may not be without the power to fight.

But he didn't want to, but Representative Li was planning to withdraw his troops and abandon the city-state of Nicholas if the first infantry regiment couldn't stand the battle.

Lu Ming looked at Feng and Gao, and said, "It's still the same sentence, don't think it's a failure. When the five Sonia divisions go deep into the Western Regions, you will find that only five divisions need to rule stably. It will be a drop in the bucket here, and it will fall into a real war swamp. At that time, if they don’t withdraw their troops in desperation, they will send more armed forces.” After a pause, “If we look at the overall situation, our western front is only An oil corps will contain at least ten divisions of Sonia, or even a dozen or twenty divisions." Holding a red pen on the map, the western part of Sonia, which is close to the city-state area, is circled, "Not only in the Western Regions, Here, too, we will develop and support the forces against the Sonia!"

Feng Qifa and Gao Yaohan gradually became surprised.

Feng Qifa asked in surprise: "Will the Principality start a war against Sonia together with the Kingdom of Griffin?" There was excitement on his face. As a military general, the more battles he fought, the more enjoyable he was.

Lu Ming said: "For the time being, we will not consider these things, but there is no doubt that if our Petroleum Corps, with [-] soldiers, can exhaust the military and financial resources of the Sonia in the Western Regions, it will be of great help to the principality's grand strategy." He added: " Moreover, the three provinces of the three talents will be announced as the leaders of the principality tomorrow, and Hanzhou, which is adjacent to the three provinces, will also receive an official letter from His Royal Highness tomorrow. Reorganize the Hanzhou National Army."

"Ah?" Feng Qifa and Gao Yaohan looked at each other, their faces full of surprise.

The southern part of Hanzhou is Xiyangzhou, which was influenced by the Kingdom of Sonia. The Principality took the lead in controlling Hanzhou. There is no doubt that it also supported the Western Regions strategically.

The principality outpost is getting closer and closer to the Western Regions.

The oil transported from Xiheishanbao to the Principality was originally a newly built freight railway to the northeast, passing through several Western autonomous prefectures to Hanzhou, and then turned north from Hanzhou to the northern region.

Currently, the oil pipeline from Hanzhou to Montenegro is being planned.

And in the end, it will definitely be from Xiheishanbao to Hanzhou, and there will also be an oil pipeline controlled by the Principality.

Now, these plans obviously have to take the first step, that is, the Principality really controls Hanzhou.

Lu Ming understood what Feng Qifa and Gao Yaohan were thinking.

The speed up of his own strategic planning was also because he found that the Sonias seemed to be determined to expand their influence in the Western Regions, and would not shrink back because of their own intervention.

Therefore, we can only follow the original strategy that is the least controllable and the most variable, and strive to turn the Western Regions into the imperial cemetery of the Sonia.

At the same time, his gaze also turned to Hanzhou.

Originally, I wanted to wait. The Northern Territory also needs to develop, and it can be stable for a few years, or even ten or twenty years.

But in troubled times, it is actually impossible to allow oneself to plan and develop, and can only follow the general trend and follow the trend.

Lu Ming looked at Ni Luozi, "I asked you to listen here, because I hope you know that the earth-shaking changes in the Western Regions will be a kind of tempering for you. You have to think clearly about how you want to go next."

Then he said to Feng and Gao: "Let's go, let's go to the meeting and tell them how to fight guerrillas next. Of course, they can also submit to the Sonia, but I think as members of the coalition, they should all be on the side of the Sonia. They are on the blacklist, and the Sonia people have no heart of forgiveness, let alone the influence these city-state lords have in the local area. The national belief of the Sonia people firmly believes that they can conquer everything!"

After taking two steps, he turned his head and said to Ni Luozi: "Before the Sonia came, we went to solve Huo Huo Luo. ? Their rule is extremely cruel and barbaric, and they are unpopular with the people. After solving the bloody chaos, it will become one of the excellent bases for our rebels!"

Ni Luozi was originally worried about gain and loss, but at this moment he lifted his spirits, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!" Glancing at Lu Ming, his face was full of gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Representative!"
