It is said that if we want to attack Kushan Central Asia and the parts of southern Asia that are not close to the sea, the Han Dynasty will have no problem guarding the supply line. But after passing through the Central Asia and entering the real South Asia, the maximum distance between most of the territories and the coastline is only
Thousands of miles ahead.
In other words, if we kill from Aksai Chin, there will be no problem in Central Asia with the strong military strength of the Han Dynasty. But let alone this place, Chen Xi still has to build a road, and he just mentioned Aksai Chin.
Qin, after reaching places close to South Asia, it will still be controlled by the Kushan navy.
At a distance of more than a thousand miles, at the current incredible marching speed, there is no pressure to attack and outflank you. As long as Kuishang's brain is still online, at this time, the Han Dynasty's supply line can be cut off casually, even if the Han Dynasty has
No matter how overwhelming the military strength is, it is impossible to continue to advance.
It is obvious that even if Jia Xu follows the normal Central Plains war thinking, as long as the opponent's navy launches various landings and attacks South Asia, as long as there is no way to suppress the Kushan navy, it will basically be impossible to continue the war.
After all, no matter how willful and powerful the army is, if its logistics supply line is cut off, it is probably not far away from collapse.
Of course, it is also a way to directly attack the Indochina Peninsula, march at high speed, and directly destroy the blocking line in front of Guishang with powerful troops, abandoning the logistical supplies in the rear, and just feed on the enemy.
But let’s not talk about the difficulty of quickly destroying the Kushan blocking line from the front and forcefully breaking into the hinterland of Kushan. Just talk about how to get out after one enters. Hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous soldiers can kill your army soul army. Although the caste system is
There are many pitfalls, but the class stability advantage of the caste system is still very obvious.
For the upper echelons of the country, they have an extremely large number of untouchables. Even if the Han Dynasty achieves the prerequisites for a forced breakthrough, they will be defeated by the enemy, and the Kushans are too stupid to create a large-scale no-man's land and carry out the simplest clearing of the country.
.
The army that charged in was easily killed by Kushan due to its superior terrain and strength. To this extent, it was like Rome parachuting a legion into Yecheng. Although it was indeed easy to cause great damage to Yecheng at the beginning,
But when the Han Dynasty reacts, they can be wiped out quickly.
Therefore, when this method is not advisable, the most correct choice for the Han Dynasty is actually the simplest way to fight steadily, step by step, use regular troops to deal with Kushan, and finally kill him.
In this way, one node that the Han Dynasty cannot bypass is the navy. Someone must intercept the Kushan navy. Not to mention defeating the Kushan navy, as long as the Kushan navy is stopped, they will be unable to interfere with the Han Dynasty's logistics supply line, so that they can
The Kushan navy, which affected the strength of the Han Dynasty, was eliminated. Relying on the strength of the army, the Han Dynasty was enough to drag the Kushan to death.
It's just that for the navy of the Han Dynasty, Chen Xi felt that it was a bit difficult to achieve this level. Lu Jun had previously made a finished seventh-generation ship, one worth 100 million yuan, but the cost was too high.
Afterwards, Chen Xi typed back the planning document to Lu Jun.
After that, the seventh-generation ships were stopped by Chen Xi. After all, judging from the current situation, the advantages of the seventh-generation ships on the ship are obvious, and in terms of shipbuilding technology, Chen Xi no longer thinks that the Han Dynasty is much inferior to the Kushans, but rather
Compared with the price of sixth-generation ships, seventh-generation ships are simply too expensive.
One ship costs 100 million yuan, and another one costs less than 10 million yuan due to technological improvements and the continuous improvement of workers' proficiency. Before there is a breakthrough in the combat capabilities of both sides, it is better to stop building the seventh-generation ship.
This is why Chen Xi suggested that Lu Jun combine the ship advantages of seventh-generation ships with the cost advantages of sixth-generation ships to create a new type of sixth-generation ship.
After all, after the two are combined, although it is equivalent to another deterioration, the cost is basically stuck at 10 million yuan. At this level of cost, the same amount of money used to build seventh-generation ships can now build ten new sixth-generation ships.
.
Chen Xi has a country in his hands. It is impossible for him to invest all his money in one industry. He needs to take care of all aspects. In Chen Xi's opinion, the current seventh-generation ship is a failure. One seventh-generation ship can defeat five six-generation ships.
First-generation ships, the new sixth-generation ships will probably only be three or four.
But the price is too expensive. Chen Xi must consider the balance between scale and combat effectiveness. The navy he wants to build will definitely eliminate fourth-generation ships and fifth-generation ships in the future.
The size of the navy will be controlled at about 200,000, and although the carrying capacity of the seventh-generation ship is about 3,000, in fact, if it is really going to fight, 2,000 people will be about the same.
If it were a pure seventh-generation ship, it is estimated that more than 100 ships would be needed, and the cost alone would cost more than 10 billion. Taking into account maintenance and other aspects, it is really too expensive.
If we switch to a new generation of sixth-generation ships that has been designed now and takes into account some of the advantages of seventh-generation ships and the cost advantage of sixth-generation ships, although it will require about two hundred ships, the cost will be reduced to two billion in an instant.
Chen Xi has no problem with his mind. Unless there is a real breakthrough, or a warship is manufactured with invincible combat effectiveness, Chen Xi will consider whether it is necessary to invest such a cost. Otherwise, Chen Xi must have money.
Think carefully.
After all, there is more than one place to spend money. Chen Xi needs to invest money in all aspects of such a large country. The use of every money needs to be carefully considered. The navy is very important, but there are too many important things in this country at present.
.
Based on this, Chen Xi stopped the construction of seventh-generation ships, which cannot reach a level of 1:8. The efficiency of seventh-generation ships is actually better than that of sixth-generation ships. This is not how money is burned. The Navy should really pour some cold water on it.
"In short, to fight against this country, because it has a long coastline, we must have a navy." Chen Xi squinted at Jia Xu and said.
Jia Xu nodded silently after hearing this. There was no way. With the navy's presence, the long coastline had become a possible troop deployment point at any time. No matter how it was arranged, the logistics supply line would not be safe, so there was no way to fight.
.
"According to what Ziyi said before, our navy is still far behind. It was basically easily annihilated by the opponent." Li You pressed his temples and said with a little heartache. After raising a navy for so many years, it was annihilated.
.
"There is no way. The biggest difference between the navy and the army is here. Bizarre situations like naval battles often occur. Any fleet that has invested countless efforts may be completely wiped out in an hour. That kind of place is simply impossible.
There's no way to run away." Chen Xi said helplessly.
"I've also heard about this. The gap is a bit big. How is Xingba doing in this aspect?" Because it involves future national strategy, Guo Jia also stopped drinking at this time and asked Chen Xi solemnly.
road.
"Xingba is already the most talented general I can find in water and naval battles. Although he can also make a difference in land battles with his strength, we have many generals in land battles, so why bother." Chen Xi glanced.
He glanced at Guo Jia and directly rejected what Guo Jia wanted to say.
"But they were all wiped out in just a few seconds." Fazheng, who had been silent for the whole time, said.
"It's normal. If you can't beat it, that's it. Unless you can run away in a water battle and are surrounded, you will only die." Chen Xi spread his hands and said helplessly, "And, in reality, it is impossible for us to find another one here.
There is a better naval admiral than him. Even if there is one, I am afraid it will take a generation. At present, Gan Ning is already among the very strong ones in naval battles."
"Are there any naval talents worth cultivating?" Guo Jia heard this and didn't bother with this aspect. He turned to look at Li You. Now that the compilation has been basically completed, only the household registration that is left to be checked and filled is in Li You's hands.
.
"This kind of thing cannot be seen, but in my opinion, there is no difference between the navy and the army. If you feed it with war, sooner or later you will be able to produce satisfied generals." Li You said with an almost calm expression, "Zichuan, since
You said it’s here, what level does Zhou Gongjin belong to?”
"If there is anyone in our generation who can defeat Kushan in a naval battle, it would be him." Chen Xi paused for a while and said in an uncertain tone, "Of course, I say there is.
Maybe, he does have a huge advantage in terms of talent."
"I see." Jia Xuxu knocked on the table, somewhat understanding Chen Xi's arrangement.
"In a naval battle, how much influence does the warship have?" Li You asked silently, regretting that he didn't take care of the flying bear. Otherwise, what the hell would the navy be? It rushed over from the sea and broke the ship in half.
"If there is no generation difference in the ships, the impact will be very small. In reality, there is no generation difference between our sixth-generation ships and the seventh-generation ships recently built by Lu Jicai. That is to say, if the opponent's naval combat level is high enough,
, Technology and other aspects are really great, it is not impossible for a sixth-generation ship to defeat a seventh-generation ship." Looking up at the rafters, Chen Xi said with some uncertainty.
Of course, this is also the reason why Chen Xi doesn't know about Lu Jun's crazy true artifact unparalleled plan. If he knew, he would understand the huge gap like a chasm between Lu Jun's seventh-generation ship and other warships. To put it simply, Lu Jun's mind
The seventh-generation ship belongs to the level of, I can beat you with one fleet, no, ten fleets with one ship.
However, one piece of material alone is worth 50 billion yuan. If Chen Xi saw the current construction plan of the Lujia Shipyard, he would definitely feel crazy.
"You are still talking about this, work for me!" Lu Su went out for a trip and came back with a bunch of official documents and found that these people were all talking nonsense. He immediately smashed the pile of official documents on the table in anger.
Roared at everyone.
"Work, work, work." Fa Zheng, Guo Jia quickly ran back to his seat, picked up the official document and started reviewing it hard.
"The Lu family shipyard needs a large amount of high-quality iron?" Lu Su looked at the official documents sent by his steel factory in Luzhong, Qingzhou, thought about it and gave instructions. After so many years of development, the output of iron is enough to meet the needs of armor and weapons.
