Chapter 445 Planning
"Jiang Yan, a scholar in Chunnan, and Gao Senqi, commander of the Flying Tiger Camp in Beiliao!" When the doorman who welcomed the guests sang the identities of the two people who came together, the whole banquet hall was noisy. How could these two people get together? One was the first strategist of Chunnan and the other was the second in command of the Western Route Army of Beiliao. They were all amazing people. Jiang Yan appeared in Gondor, which did not make many people feel strange. Originally, everyone was surprised that Chunnan, who was an ally, was completed in Gondor.
At the ceremony, a person of sufficient level should be sent. Just a messenger in Dongping, Zheng Zhe, was obviously not of sufficient level. Although Jiang Yan did not have any titles and was just a bachelor's degree, who dared to underestimate this guy? Jiang Yan rarely appears in Chunnan's court to discuss politics with the ministers. In his opinion, discussing politics is to argue with those guys who were standing in the team, which was meaningless. But any major decision of Chunnan is indispensable.
But Gao Senqi appeared in Gondor in a grand manner and even broke into the banquet hall where many Dongping celebrities gathered. However, it would be too bold to see that Gao Senqi had not been wearing a long robe today, and everyone believed that he was here to smash the venue today. However, what everyone couldn't understand was that the generals in Yunzhou did not seem to have any hostility towards Gao Senqi, nor did they deliberately keep a distance. However, many people ran up and pat Gao Senqi on the shoulder to greet him. This made everyone even more confused. However, Tan Xiaopei glanced at the door on the main table in the banquet hall, and ordered indifferently: "Let Gao Senqi come to see me after the banquet."
At the whole banquet, the most eye-catching thing was the table where Gaosen Banner was. In addition to Gaosen Banner, there were senior generals from Yunzhou, and even Xu Yao and Cheng Chi were there. Everyone kept listing the advantages and disadvantages of each unit, analyzing the various situations seen in the military parade, judging which unit is stronger, which unit is weaker, and where it is weaker. Their discussions did not exceed the usual research, but in fact they were all the content that Gaosen Banner had known long ago. No matter what everyone was
No matter how to discuss it on the table, Xu Yao would laugh at Gao Senqi's combat power with a sneering smile beside him. At the beginning, Gao Senqi did not want to join the discussion, but then he could not resist Xu Yao's repeated provocations and finally argued with them. Gao Senqi had a deep understanding of many troops in Yunzhou, and his location was higher than that of the senior officers of Yunzhou who did not have to worry about supplies and equipment, and looked at the problem more comprehensively. For a moment, both sides had various armies.
The debate over configuration and combat power has attracted many interested people to listen. The generals of Yunzhou were also surprised to find that many places that they thought were secrets and had their own unique advantages were not so reliable. The development of Yunzhou relies heavily on the manufacturing industry of Yunzhou and the entire Dongping. The army's armed forces are indeed excellent, but there are also various problems. The huge gap in combat power between the main combat troops and the second-line troops is a very serious problem, which means that once Yunzhou
When the main combat troops are defeated, the investment of the second-line troops will be greater. In fact, Yunzhou has a much less understanding of the Western Route Army than Gaosen Banner. This is the difference between an area under the jurisdiction of the Northern Xinjiang Administration, which is friendly and open to the outside world and an area under military control for many years. The Intelligence Bureau has put a lot of effort into the Northern Liao Dynasty, but at least the simulation battalions established by the Western Route Army did not receive much information.
"This guy Gao Senqi is very interesting..." Tan Xiaopei pulled Ye Tao and said in a low voice: "But you really dared. Let Gao Senqi sway in Yunzhou like this, but you actually have a good relationship. You don't have to worry about the censors, but this guy knows too much about the situation of the army in your hands. How can you fight this battle in the future?"
Ye Tao smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Yunzhou's confidentiality measures are still very reliable. It is normal for Gao Senqi to understand some situations indirectly. After all, equipment and training are on the surface, but he must have done something else. Look at the situations he mentioned, only those who actually command the army can understand. He is a good general, but... Bei Liao doesn't have many opportunities for the Western Route Army to play out. I understand this, and other people in Yunzhou also understand this. Now that they can match Dongping and Yunzhou, only Xiling and Chunnan. Bei Liao are inherently deficient. We are fully confident in strategy, as long as we don't make big mistakes in tactical execution. In terms of tactics, Your Majesty, this is our strength. Since the establishment of the command and the staff system was built, various tactical plans and targeted training in Yunzhou have been underway."
Zhuo Mang also joined the discussion with great enthusiasm. Today, seeing these troops in Yunzhou made him a little excited. If the troops under the Northern Xinjiang Administration were not too small, they could directly attack Bei Liao. The Tianxuan Army and the Zhenning Pass were ready. Zhuo Mang asked, "Ye Tao, what are your plans now?"
"Plan? General, what are you kidding..." Ye Tao said with a wry smile: "Isn't this obvious now? The army has just been moved, and although it is not large in scale, it cannot withstand a long distance. However, after the Northern Grassland is pacified, a big problem has been solved. In addition to leaving the necessary forces on the Northern Grassland and the Fenglang Plain, 80,000 to 100,000 troops can be roughly transferred for foreign warfare. However, it will take one year to one and a half years to form an army, and the coordination and cooperation of each department can be negotiated. Yunzhou
If you fight against foreign countries, the troops on Zhenzhou need to be strengthened. In addition to the twenty-five garrison battalions, ten various main battle battalions, and about 100,000 troops that Lu Dan himself already has, at least ten main battle battalions are prepared to temporarily give him ten main battle battalions. For Xiling's defense, there must be guaranteed that there will be more than 150,000 troops to maneuver. The remaining forces can only consider the battle against Bei Liao... Your Majesty, General, I think, if nothing unexpected happens, it is indeed the choice of Bei Liao as the first opponent, right?"
The first opponent Ye Tao mentioned naturally refers to the choice of the process of unifying the entire continent. It is natural to choose Northern Liao. Northern Liao is the weakest of the four countries formed by the split and evolution of the Tang Dynasty in the Middle Earth, and its geographical location is relatively awkward. If the Northern Liao does not solve the problem, there will always be a thorn on the back when fighting against Xiling and Chunnan in the future.
Tan Xiaopei nodded, glanced at Gao Senqi, who was still arguing with the generals of Yunzhou in the distance, and said, "One and a half years... two years later, it is almost this season, and we will march together."
Ye Tao squeezed his eyes and said with a smile: "Three ways... Your Majesty, you are going to march in three ways."
Zhuo Mang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, there is also Min Yue." Now everyone has no big idea about landing operations. The Marine Corps, which is currently only five battalions formed by the Dongping Naval Division, is always ignored by everyone without realizing it. This is exactly what makes the navy generals depressed, and it is also the driving force that prompts them to step up training the Marine Corps.
Tan Xiaopei smiled and said, "Yes, Sanlu... Don't let Min Yue know about this, otherwise, he might ask me for something in the court again." After thinking about it, Tan Xiaopei asked, "When the time comes, I will assign a department to Yunzhou to assist you, do you need?"
Ye Tao smiled and said, "Your Majesty, if you are paying attention to Zhenning Pass to restrain and take the main attack from the Yunzhou direction, then I would be welcome. In fact, the same is true. The Western Route Army is currently fully prepared, targeting Yunzhou, but the Eastern Route Army and other units of the Northern Liao Dynasty are relatively weak. The Western Route Army only has a small number of troops on that side, which may be mainly to defend against the offensive in Zhenning Pass, but only a small part. The Tianxuan Army is enough to deal with that unit. Moreover, Your Majesty will not only have these troops, but there must be a few troops in Yicheng, right? If Your Majesty wants to give me an army to strengthen the offensive here, I will never ask for it. But I don't know which troops to give me?"
"Blood Qi Army!" Tan Xiaopei said lightly. "I'll rest assured to send the Blood Qi Army to you. Moreover, you may be the only one who can take over those guys. They are originally mobile forces and the main force in foreign combat. After being maintained for many years, it's time for them to move."
Ye Tao thought for a moment and said, "Okay. In this case, then my troops on the Eastern Expedition will be complete, and I will wait for the training and deployment to be completed."
Tan Xiaopei asked again: "The troops in your hands and the Blood Qi Army are all guys who rely on logistics to fight. The materials consumed too much, especially this time, it must be a cavalry battle. The combined horse materials and rations are awesome. Is your transportation capacity enough?"
Ye Tao smiled mysteriously and said, "If everything is to be lucky from Gondor, it will not be enough to make Suo Zheng exhausted. However, it is almost two years to go to the best of me. Your Majesty, is the general interested in coming to the workshop to see it?"
"Haha, I'll go there even if you don't say this." Tan Xiaopei said with a hearty smile, "There are so many fun things in the workshop, especially the research institute. I know that there are many good things you hide... But, do you have a way to solve the problem of supplying materials in the army? There is this project in the research institute, and aren't there some electrical and alchemy projects?"
Ye Tao said helplessly: "I was always hesitating whether to make this thing. Especially on the endless grassland, it has a great impact on the ecology. However, what should appear will always appear. I think, in my hands, at least do things better from the beginning. Then your Majesty will know when he goes to see it. In terms of technical difficulty, the thing I made is not qualified to enter the research institute at all. It is just an ordinary project in the workshop."
