Chapter 3572 The forward strategy stalemate

Zhuge Jin's character was conservative. He knew very well that with the current combat effectiveness of the Han Dynasty in the Malay Peninsula, it would be very difficult to defeat the Kushan navy in Malacca.

The arrival of Selian cleared away the scum in the navy, successfully purged the entire navy from top to bottom, and successfully brought out the original combat effectiveness of the Kushan Navy. At the same time, with such a sea-fixing needle in place, victory is actually

Very difficult thing.

In addition, Kushan received shipbuilding materials of "unknown origin". Although these materials cannot be made into large ships in a short time, even if some of them are used to strengthen Selian's sea fortress, it will cause considerable damage to the Han Dynasty.

trouble.

Although the mobility of the sea fortress can be described as rubbish, Selian, who lives his life guarding Malacca, does not need much mobility. He only needs to be able to contain the force of the Han army.

Under such prerequisites, Zhuge Jin thought it was better to be more realistic and target Ye Tiao country, capture Ye Tiao completely, and then reproduce the strategic intention of attacking from the north and the south.

"It's difficult. Selian's military management ability is very strong. After the previous wave of wars, all the young men of Ye Tiaoguo were incorporated into the servant army." Zhou Yu shook his head and said.

The Han Dynasty, which originally held the great mission of liberating the Ye Tiao Kingdom, took the document that the leader of the Ye Tiao Kingdom joined the Han Dynasty and became a prince. It was an unjust teacher who could incite the Ye Tiao people to fight against the Kushan.

The Han Dynasty's banner of taunting the people and crusading against crimes was tenable in the early stages of this war, but after Selian eliminated the dregs from the army and optimized the previous rule plan through Masinde, the Han army wanted to continue to hold high the banner of taunting the people and crusading.

The flag of sin is no longer possible.

Masinde's previous notice to the people of Ye Tiao was to pay three taxes out of ten, and then he asked the Ye Tiao nobles to act as villains, and then took half of the tax from the Ye Tiao nobles.

This method of transfer makes Kuishang look less black. This is also the reason why it can support a thousand-sail navy. After all, Kuishang currently lacks ships and is unlikely to transport food by sea. It is very important to collect food from the mainland.

Operated.

However, this move gave Sun Ce and others an opportunity. Sun Ce relied on his domineering spirit and various bizarre lucks to successfully incite the Ye Diao people to overthrow the Ye Diao nobles.

This was also the time when Zhou Yu sent Li Yan, Wenpin and others to land in the country of Ye Tiao, preparing to take advantage of the popular support to kill the nobles of Ye Tiao and fully take over Sumatra.

This is a very good plan, because Sumatra Island is large enough, has sufficient output, and the terrain is quite complex. As long as Li Yan and Wenpin's army can capture the hearts and minds of the people, they can stand firm in Sumatra Island, and as long as they stand firm there

, the Han army was equivalent to attacking Malacca from the north and the south at the same time.

In the end, this strategy failed. Zhou Yu tried his best to lure Selian away. Sun Ce led Gan Ning and Tai Shici to successfully capture the north side of Malacca, but his plan to capture Sumatra on the south bank failed.

After Mengkangbu and others ate Sun Ce's flash bomb, Masinde guessed what the Han army wanted to do, and decisively crossed south to Sumatra, and then did the same thing as the Han army, and it was even more awesome than the Han army!

After all, the whole country of Ye Tiao is annexed. Even if the nobles of Ye Tiao are cattle, the Han army must follow the procedures if they want to take action. If they don't follow the procedures, they must try to be as secretive as possible and try not to tell the truth. However, Masinde doesn't care about this.

Already.

After Masinde came, he directly told the people of Ye Tiao that we in Kushan had previously announced a tax of three out of ten. It was your Ye Tiao nobles who made the list into a tax of seven out of ten, or even nine out of ten. How could we in Kushan tolerate this?

As long as people exist, the army will break down the door and take out the Ye Tiao nobles.

After all, Kushan had been in Malacca for several years by this time, and Ye Tiaoguo had been infiltrated to a great extent. After Masinde made the plan, he directly ordered Meng Khambu and others to implement it.

To be honest, Moncomb was unwilling to implement such a plan, but at that time, in addition to Moncomb, the army retreating from the north bank also included Aruno, Annar and others. In addition, Aruno was Selian's deputy general, and

Although Mengcomb was somewhat reluctant to listen to Masinde's instructions, he did not conflict with Aruno and others, so in the end the order was carried out.

As for the original plan proposed by Salian to disgust the Han Dynasty with a tax of one out of ten, Masinde did not implement it at all. He hanged the Ye Diao nobles in the most efficient way in front of the Ye Diao people, and then gave the Ye Diao people

The fields and grain were divided.

He once again posted a list stating that the tax was three out of ten, and ordered all the people to remember that whoever collected more than this tax would be notified to the Kushan army and every one of them would be killed.

Because Masinde did it too quickly, dragging out the Ye Tiao nobles and hanging them in front of the people, and then divided the fields and grains, and took advantage of the situation to ease the people, Kushan's reputation seemed to have bottomed out.

It's the same and has reached a considerable level.

In addition, most people in this era have no sense of the country. Paying taxes is not taxing. Masinde's quick and easy operation successfully stabilized the credibility of Kushan in the hearts of the people in Ye Tiao. After all, the food was divided and the fields were divided.

It’s also divided. You still have to believe more or less.

Even if there is doubt, it will only be raised during the next wave of grain harvest.

This trick is the so-called use of corrupt officials to make money, enrich the national treasury, and then kill the corrupt officials to make the people angry and win the hearts of the people. Not to mention that the people of Ye Tiao Kingdom have never seen this kind of gameplay. Even if it has been repeated many times in history, this trick

Still a supreme weapon.

As a result, Zhou Yu had no use for the black material he had prepared. Although Li Yan and Wenpin could fight, in the face of Masinde's offensive, they could only shrink to the place where they already had the advantage. As for completely taking advantage of

The lower leaf tone is obviously not a chance.

Then it became even more troublesome. Sumatra has a tropical maritime climate, with three crops a year. Masinde established his credibility by stabilizing taxation, and successfully split Ye Tiaoguo into two parts with the Han Dynasty. Yes, this

After the collapse of the aristocracy, the country was divided.

Both Masinde and Zhou Yu relied on their own advantages to establish their country's credibility in Sumatra, and then both missed the opportunity to kill the other.

As a result, Kushan currently has a headache because there are Han dynasties in both the south and the north, and the Han dynasty has a headache because the situation between the north and the south cannot coordinate perfectly and cannot be used to lay the foundation for victory.

Both sides feel uncomfortable, but both sides can barely accept this state of affairs. In the current situation, if either side crosses that line, it will lead to a decisive battle.

This is why Zhuge Jin suggested that Zhou Yu should not go too big and capture Sumatra first, because Kushan currently relies on Sumatra for its navy's food and fodder in Malacca, and its staple foods are bananas, rice and sea fish.

To be honest, this kind of food is very high-end in the Central Plains. However, if you put it here, it would be garbage. There are a lot of wild bananas here. Rice ripens three times a year. It is not a problem at all. Marine fish

Just looking at the fishing level, Malacca, as the passage from the Indian Ocean to the Pacific Ocean, and due to its local climate, has a large fishing ground.

It can be said that except for sea fish, the other two types of logistics come from Sumatra. After occupying all of Sumatra, the only option for the Kushan Navy is to supply supplies from the mainland. Not to mention the difficulty of such supplies, we will only discuss one thing

Things, that is, ships.

Maritime logistics also requires ships. With the current size of the Kushan Navy, if you want to transport grain and grass from the mainland, you may need a small fleet.

Considering that the middle and lower reaches of the Ganges River have been taken over by the Han Dynasty, and the shipyards have started construction, guys with privateering licenses don’t care whether they are pirates or bandits, so if they really want to transfer grain and grass like this, Selian is afraid

A convoy fleet is also required.

This weakened Malacca's Kushan Navy to a great extent, which was conducive to the advancement of the next plan. As for head-on confrontation, to be honest, Zhuge Jin was really not optimistic about it.

Zhou Yu's intention is very clear. It's not that Ye Tiaoguo cannot be defeated, but whether it can be conquered. Masinde's talent level gives Zhou Yu a headache. The military garrison of the Han Dynasty is on the Sumatra Island belonging to Kushan.

The northwest coast is also doing this.

What was even more excessive than the Han army was that Masinde actually went out of his way to arm all the young men, and then relied on false propaganda to make Ye Diaoqingzhuang regard the Han army as his enemy.

This method may be exposed, but Masinde clearly holds the evil idea that even if I die, I will not lose. From a certain point of view, this guy has done a very thorough job of being a bad guy. Without the constraints of concepts, threats

and constraints instantly cease to exist.

After all, Zhou Yu was still young and had relatively upright views, so he really couldn't do such a thing.

Because if Zhou Yu does the same thing, then Ye Tiaoguo's youth will undoubtedly be wiped out in the end, and antagonistic emotions will be established, and with the war, it will turn into a blood feud. Even if he was once a member of the same country, he must score you.

If I die, I will die.

Therefore, Zhou Yu was thinking to see if there was any ingenious way to get around it. Sumatra could provide support, but if he really wanted to take Sumatra by force, with Masinde's shameless style, I'm afraid it wouldn't be a battle, but a massacre.

.

The massacre will accumulate considerable psychological pressure. As the saying goes, killing enemies on the battlefield is nothing more than killing enemies of their own kind. However, large-scale massacres of species similar to one's own are very likely to cause mental illness. And with the current situation of the legion, psychological

When something goes wrong, combat effectiveness will also go wrong.

Therefore, Zhou Yu can accept Sumatra as the battlefield, but it is impossible to use Sumatra as a breakthrough point. Based on Zhou Yu's current understanding of Masinde, that guy really doesn't mind Ye Tiaoguo's blood being shed cleanly.

Zhou Yu still has some taboos about this. Destroying a country means destroying a country. If there are not even a few people left alive after defeating this country, Zhou Yu feels that he still can't do it.

It can be said that the Han Dynasty raised the moral bottom line a lot because of Chen Xi's existence, and could not tolerate anti-social things.
