Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

January.

It is less than half a month before the first New Year in Dong'an.

Originally, at this time, the whole country should prepare new year's goods and welcome the arrival of the new year with joy.

But now, the war casts a cloud over this joy.

Although Su Yuan had tried his best to downplay the atmosphere of war, what people sat and discussed in folk alleys, taverns and teahouses was still about war.

"Just wait and see, hmph, our Majesty will definitely make those Xiguo devils go away!"

"That's needless to say? Where has Your Majesty ever been defeated?"

"That's right, if it wasn't for the fact that the army stopped recruiting, I would have wanted to join the army! Do a good job with these Xiguo devils!"

"Come on, important people in the military are very strict. Forget it if you don't work hard."

"Hey……"

"I really don't know whether to fight before the end of the year or after the new year."

"Let's not worry about that. Did you read yesterday's mansion newspaper? The adults have already said that, let us ordinary people feel at ease and prepare for the New Year. There is no need to worry about it."

"This is also..."

The common people are generally not worried, and even those Westerners who are still in Dong'an are not worried about Dong'an.

Instead, they are all worried about their own country.

Many of them are nationals of the Thirteen Kingdoms, and they are very pessimistic about their own country's participation in the siege of Dong'an.

You must know that they live in Dong'an, know how good the public security is here, how strict the military discipline is, and the living conditions are improving rapidly day by day.

On the other hand, in my own country, the parliamentarians and the military and police are working together, and the degree of oppression of the bottom is only slightly better than that of the previous Dazhou.How could an army composed of such a country be an opponent of the Dong'an Army?
For a while, these Westerners in Dong'an were anxious.

They were worried about accidents to their relatives and friends in the motherland, and tried to contact them through various channels to prepare them for the failure of the war.

It is conceivable that once such a foreign war fails, it will greatly affect the domestic stability.

Reflected in the votes, this session of parliamentary government will fail completely, and it will inevitably cause turmoil at that time, and the lives of the people at the bottom will never be safe.

It's just too late to do these things now.

……

West Maple National Military Port.

Delz and a group of admirals gathered here. These generals came from all countries of the alliance, and they all brought their country's warships together.

Looking out from the military port, the densely packed warships are boundless, there are almost a thousand of them, and the scene is very shocking.

This time, the Thirteen Kingdoms took out their old books at home.

What they want is to win or lose in one battle, and completely destroy the Eastern Empire, so as to carve up the resources, population, and even territory of the entire country.

For this reason, in addition to warships, naval soldiers and generals also selected the best of the best.

A total of tens of thousands of troops is very large.

Daerz looked at these magnificent warships and this group of heroic soldiers, feeling very proud.

Now he can be said to have both prestige and money.

The Thirteen Kingdoms honored him as the wartime leader, and the people in Xifeng even supported him immensely.His domestic approval rate is close to 90.00%, and he is the first president in West Maple history.

And the war bond issued by him led his whole family to make a lot of money, which is enough for the family to inherit for several generations.

Being a human being can do this, it is considered as having no regrets.

Delz had already thought in his heart that as long as he finished this battle and won the battle, he would be able to abdicate peacefully and enjoy the glory, wealth and good life from now on.

At that time, he will be like an emperor, no matter who the new president is, his prestige will not surpass him.

"Your Excellency, we are ready to go!"

A tall and straight middle-aged man in front of Delz said.

This is Akaxido, the admiral of the West Maple Kingdom and No.1 of the navy.

He presided over the formation of the first fleet from scratch. He is a pioneering figure in the West Maple Navy, with extremely rich experience in sea combat and outstanding psychological quality.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the national treasure of Xifeng Kingdom.

Delz sent him out this time because he was determined to win this battle.

"How about it, Akaxido, are you confident?"

"Your Excellency, I don't need confidence, because my soldiers are fully prepared. With them, we will win!"

"Haha, good! That's what I want!"

Delz patted Akaxido on the shoulder and encouraged:

"When you come back, I will personally wear a hero badge for you!"

"I'll win it over!"

Akaxido gave a military salute to Delz, then turned around, opened his mouth and shouted: "Salute!"

Brush brush!
The sailors all saluted Delz, who also smiled and raised his hand in response.

"Heroic lads, the Lord will bless you, I look forward to your return in victory!"

After the expedition ceremony, under the command of Akaxido, the warships began to sail out of the military port in an orderly manner, neatly arranged, and headed for the South China Sea.

This time, the main attack direction of the thirteen-nation coalition is the South China Sea.

There are two reasons for this choice.

One is that Xifeng Country is located in the south of Dong'an Nanhai, and this distance is even closer.The distance is short, and the supplies consumed by the alliance fleet and personnel are relatively small.

The second is the part of the East China Sea, which is somewhat dangerous in the eyes of the coalition forces.Su Yuan had already captured and pocketed the important strategic position of the East China Sea, Dongwa.It is estimated that the Dongwa Islands have been built into a military base, which is very unfavorable for the alliance fleet to approach.

On the other hand, in the South China Sea, Dong'an has just been unified, and the southern part is not particularly stable.Especially South Vietnam, Jiaozhou and other places.

From the perspective of the Union Army, the defense forces in those places are still very weak, and it is impossible for the Dong'an Army to arm them so quickly.

As for Wenlai... Although Wenlai announced an alliance with Dong'an, what can such a short-term alliance change?
Wenlai is just a small island with a population of about 30, and there will not be much conventional military strength, and the Alliance Army does not take it seriously at all.

After combining these factors, the coalition forces decided to launch an attack from the South China Sea.

As for the "First Island Chain" previously announced by Dong'an, the Alliance Army didn't care at all.They think this is nothing more than intimidation, and an island chain without sufficient strength is completely useless.

woohoo-

The whistle kept ringing in the military port, and Delz watched the warships leave, and turned to call the secretary.

"Has the Saxon country responded?"

"Reporting to Your Excellency, the Saxon country still refuses to sever commercial relations with the Dong'an country."

"Huh..." Dales snorted coldly, "I think they are addicted after eating some sweets, how dare they not take my warning seriously."

"Your Excellency, do you need another warning?"

"No need!" Dalts waved his hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "When the alliance army defeats the Dong'an army, the next target is the Saxon country! I think the alliance countries will definitely not object."
