Meng Kangbu is not without brains. On the contrary, Meng Kangbu has a very clear mind. The wise men in the upper echelons of Kushan have actually determined the time of the decisive battle between Han and Guishan. Meng Kangbu naturally also knows the approximate time.
When is it.
With this understanding, Mengkangbu's reasons became much more crude - rather than taking advantage of Zhou Yu's death to go to Malacca, it would be better to continue squatting on Ceylon Island and fortify Ceylon Island.
Taking advantage of the internal chaos after Zhou Yu's death or fake death, a large amount of materials were mobilized to complete the complete fortressization of Ceylon Island.
Anyway, the decisive battle will only take place in three to five years. The island of Ceylon has been completely fortified. Even if it is hammered by the seventh-generation ship, it will take several years to break it. Before the decisive battle occurs, our delay is success.
After breaking it into pieces and launching the decisive battle, I have almost spent enough time delaying it.
Meng Kangbu's answer made Zhu Helai somewhat silent. If you look at it purely from the perspective of delaying time, Meng Kangbu's idea is no problem. Ke Guishang wants to accumulate cards before the decisive battle.
There are enough cards to deal with the final battle of the Han Dynasty.
"The navy can now rely on its capital to defeat the Han Dynasty Navy, which suffered heavy losses, but it is absolutely impossible to defeat Zhou Yu's navy when the opponent has near-coastal defenses. And now there is no certainty whether Zhou Yu is dead or not. It's all
Infer, if this is the case, why don't we do our own thing?" Mengkangbu expressed his doubts, then looked at Zhu Helai and asked.
After all, Mengkangbu had suspected that there was something wrong with Zhu Helai from a long time ago, and he had enough evidence to prove that there was something wrong with Zhu Helai. Anyone who has no problem would deliberately conceal his ancestral home and origin.
Bar!
"Because just by doing our own thing, we may not be able to maintain the naval advantage until the decisive battle between the Han Dynasty and us in three to five years." Bankim answered on behalf of Zhu Helai, "Ceylon Island is fortified.
It is indeed a very good plan, and it is correct to use it as a support for the East Indian Ocean, but this alone is not enough. When the Han Dynasty Navy recovers, this support point will be knocked out."
Moncomb heard this and did not refute, because it was a fact. Everything he built on the island of Ceylon could only be delayed after the navy fell into a disadvantage and could not achieve final victory.
"We need a fulcrum for victory. I think you should know something about what happened to the Ganges Army of the Han Dynasty recently, and this is our opportunity." Bankim pushed several pieces of intelligence collected by Kushan to Mengkomb.
In front of him, Meng Kangbu took it expressionlessly and opened it.
Although Mengkhambu himself had heard of many things, the Ganges Army had always been the main force in confronting the Kushans. Even the commander of the navy would pay special attention to it, not to mention that some of the news could be used to stimulate Gan Ning.
, so Mengkhambu also generally knows the fun of the Ganges Legion.
But when Meng Kangbu opened the information that Bankim pushed over and looked at it, he was still shocked. Seeing Meng Kangbu's expression, Wang Ziqi on the side also reached for a copy and opened it.
Color became extremely surprised.
"Are these true?" Wang Ziqi looked at Bankim and asked with a hint of shock.
"In terms of intelligence, we will not mess around. This intelligence was originally collected from the front line. At present, the management of the Han Dynasty's front line has been in a certain chaos. This is how it flourished and then declined. The great victory they have always made them look down upon.
We." Zhu Helai said with a calm face, "That's what the saying goes, a proud soldier will be defeated."
"However, even if the Han army has so many problems, we are still defeated by the Han army time and time again." Meng Kangbu put down the information and looked extremely calm compared to Xun Qi.
These data and intelligence allowed Meng Kangbu to see a lot of problems in the Han Dynasty, but the outrageous thing about the Han Dynasty is that despite such debuffs, they can still defeat Kushan. After all, these situations are not only present now.
It happened before, but it was not as serious as it is now. So the question is, under the current circumstances, is the Kushan Army confident of defeating the Han Dynasty?
"Don't say it yet." Meng Kangbu interrupted Xun Qi. He thought that Xun Qi was going to speak from Zhu Helai's point of view. He had finally found a hard-core and reliable ally, how could he make him rebel.
"Secretary, may I ask, when the Han Dynasty has so many problems, if we start a decisive battle with each other, how sure are you of winning?" After interrupting what Xun Qi was about to say, Meng Kangbu looked at Zhu He.
Lai asked, "It doesn't matter whether there is a problem or not. What matters is whether we can win."
When Xun Qi heard this, he couldn't help but look at Zhu Helai. In his opinion, the frontline soldiers of the Han army had made so many mistakes and had so many problems in management.
The rhythm of defeat, the so-called arrogant soldiers must be defeated, but what does Meng Kangbu mean by this rhetorical question? Even with such a debuff, can the Han army still fight?
In Xun Qi's impression, there is no problem that the Han army's army is stronger than the Kushan army, but the elites of Beigui are not vegetarians. As a prince, it is not that Xun Qi has never seen those elite backbones of Kushan.
There are also a large number of fifth- and sixth-level smelting immortals, and there are also a large number of middle and low-level backbones. As a result, Kushan, with such strength, is still unable to win against the Han army in such a state?
"Considering..." Zhu Helai thought for a while before explaining.
However, as soon as he started speaking, he was interrupted by Meng Kangbu, "Secretary, there is no need to consider what is available and what is not. I just want to say, do you think our Kushan army can win against such a Han army?"
If so, will it be a big victory or a small victory?"
Zhu Helai was silent for a while before he said, "I'm not sure if we can win. The Ganges Legion of the Han Army does have many problems, but a large number of heavy armored shield guards ensure the minimum strength of this legion. With Guan Yu
The main commander ensures the online strength of this legion, and a large number of backbone generals can maintain the overall structure without major problems."
This is the biggest problem. The Ganges Army of the Han Dynasty now has a lot of problems, but even under these problems, Kushan is still not sure that he can win. This is why they are considering forcing Oswin
They were promoted to be the commander of the Grand Army, because only when Oswin reaches that level can they be confident that they should be able to win. Otherwise, they are not sure.
After all, Guan Yu represents the upper limit of the Ganges Legion. In the military structure, as long as the belief and will of the legion commander can be passed on, then the person sitting in that position represents the limit of the overall strength. And Guan Yu treats the soldiers, in this
No one can find fault with the times.
If Guan Yu treats his soldiers well, is loyal, has the belief to sacrifice his life for righteousness, and has enough ability, as long as Guan Yu still stands in the position of commander, the soldiers below will follow Guan Yu hard in battle, no matter how many ideas they have.
After all, not to mention the military structure, even the bureaucrats abide by the concept of what goes up and what follows.
Therefore, even if the Ganges Army has such problems, as long as Guan Yu still adheres to his beliefs and the logistics equipment can keep up, when going to the battlefield, the overall combat effectiveness will still be maintained at a high level. This is the commander-in-chief's.
significance.
There is no need to evaluate things like shield guards. This is a bottom-line thing. It is true that 180 shield guards are not invincible these days, but the opponents currently faced by 180 shield guards are generally not
No matter how hard it is, a steady hand is basically enough.
This is also the most difficult thing for Kushans to deal with - the lower limit of the Ganges Legion's combat power requires Kushans to jump to reach it, which is very fatal.
"So even if I lead the navy to attack, even if Zhou Yu is really dead, what can I change if I win this battle?" Meng Kangbu looked at Zhu Helai calmly and said, although he had some concerns about Zhu Helai.
Doubtful, but as long as Zhu Helai still respects reality, Mengkangbu is still willing to listen to the other party's suggestions. After all, Mengkangbu still agrees with Zhu Helai in terms of brain.
"Your thinking is wrong." Just as Xun Qi was applauding Mengkangbu's speech, Szegedi slowly said, "Only by blocking the Han army from the Indian Ocean can we have enough power to deal with the Han Dynasty.
According to our current estimation of the situation of the army, advancing on land and water side by side, and outflanking the front and rear, is the most likely way to win, and the current navy is simply unable to support this plan."
"After repairing the Ceylon Island Fortress, won't we be able to support this plan?" Mengkangbu said casually. When he originally built this thing, he was also preparing to attack the Han army from the north of Ceylon Island to seize Samadha and other places.
The idea of ​​​​a fallback route, so speaking out, is not a problem.
"When the Ceylon Island fortress is repaired, the Han army's navy will be restored. At that point, it will not be so easy to outflank the Han army's retreat and face the front of the Han navy.
To put it bluntly, the reason why the Han army is willing to cease war with us is because we now have the power to threaten their food routes?" Zhu Helai sighed and decided to share some things with Meng Kangbu.
It's kind of a settlement.
Mengkangbu was silent for a while after hearing this, but he had to admit this fact. Zhu He was right. The Han army was willing to cease war with Kushan. In addition to the so-called world crisis, the bigger reason was that the current Han army was actually
There is no way to start a fight with Kushan. The so-called overstretch is only partly due to one reason.
The more practical reason is that after the Han Dynasty navy was severely damaged, the Indian Ocean was once again controlled by the Kushans. With Meng Kambu's current naval strength, once the Han Dynasty's army was dispatched on a large scale, it would have to consider the possibility of Meng Kambu's property being confiscated in the rear.
possible.
After all, Zhou Yu initially concealed for Kuishang how to use the moon tide and the secret ship technique to sail the super ship directly into the Ganges River.
Precisely because Mengkangbu was able to do this, it was basically unrealistic for the Han Dynasty to mobilize a large-scale main force to fight against the Kushans in the short term. Therefore, after the world crisis, the Han Dynasty chose to cease war with the Kushans. Without this reason, the Han Dynasty is now
Still hammering Kuishang.
After all, these are not the only crises on a world scale. The previous problem of Africa becoming a god was a real world crisis, but whether the Han Dynasty should attack Kushan or Kushan, there was no end in sight.
To a certain extent, the Han Dynasty is also a typical example of how to choose what to eat. When the Kushans did not have the strength to threaten themselves, they hammered the Kushans vigorously. However, when the Kushans got a card that could disgust the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasties
The room quickly became civilized.
"It is because of our strength that we can sit here to discuss. If we were not strong enough, we would still be beaten by the Han Dynasty." Zhu Helai concluded calmly, but no one present refuted this, because it was true.
That's very correct.
"We need to maintain the strategic advantage at sea." Zhu Helai looked at Mengkangbu and said, "There is no other reason, it is very simple. Only by maintaining the strategic advantage in a certain aspect can we ensure the Kushan Empire in the future.
We will not suddenly encounter a devastating blow, and currently the only advantage we have is the navy."
Although the army now needs the will of the empire and the will of the empire, the soul of the army and the soul of the army, and the three talents and three talents, it seems to be much stronger than before the Anxi's subjugation, and in terms of potential, it is also far stronger than the Anxi's back then, but in the face of
To be honest, the strength of the Han Dynasty is really not enough.
In this way, the only strategic advantage Kushan can choose is the navy. As long as one of the army and navy can maintain a dominant position, then Kushan has cards and can continue to fight. But if both fall into
To be honest, the Kushan Empire can only wait for the Han army to come to an end and concoct it personally. There is nothing to say, it is just such a simple and realistic situation.
"Strategic advantage?" Meng Kangbu lowered his head and thought, while Xun Qi repeated this sentence. As a non-loser who broke out of the Xun family's immortal strangulation game, Xun Qi also had his own understanding of strategy and tactics.
Therefore, when Zhu He came to analyze the overall situation, Xun Qi knew that nothing he said was of any use.
Because Zhu Helai's judgment was correct, as long as Kushan retained part of its strategic advantage, the Han Dynasty would not be unscrupulous when facing Kushan.
