Chapter 623 Straits of Malacca
Ocean Fleet continues to set sail.
Pass through the seas of the Nansha Islands, sail for a while, and enter the Johor Strait.
Speaking of the Johor Strait, we have to mention the Johor Country. Johor Country is divided into two parts by the South China Sea. It is located in the West Johor Country on the Malay Peninsula, connected to Siam in the north and the Johor Strait in the south, connecting to the Star Kingdom; Johor Country in the east is located in the northern part of Borneo and Java in the south.
The four countries of Johor, Siam, Star Kingdom, and Java, including the surrounding Annan, Luzon, Ni Kingdom, Nanzhang, Zhenla and Piao Kingdom, are all members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
According to the federal division, all ten ASEAN countries were classified into Southeast Asia. Therefore, in the game, these ten game zones competed with each other and cooperated with each other.
As a member of ASEAN, Johor's most famous specialty is tin ore, and its tin ore stock ranks first in the world. Johor in history gradually flourished because of the discovery of tin ore.
There are countless bloody storms surrounding the tin mines in Johor.
Speaking of tin ore, in history, China has strong demand for tin ore in Johor, especially high-quality tin ore. Because tin is mainly used in the lining of tea boxes and has a moisture-proof effect.
In addition, the pepper from Johor also enjoys a high reputation in the West.
Apart from these two specialties, there is nothing else worth Ouyang Shuo paying attention to. This long-distance voyage, the ultimate destination of the fleet, was to cross the English Channel and arrive in the UK, which is unprecedented.
Therefore, if the fleet now goes to Johor to purchase a batch of pepper and then transport it to the West for sale, it would make a profit. However, Ouyang Shuo was not going to do so.
In fact, when the fleet sailed into the Johor Strait, Ouyang Shuo had already made up the idea of a small country.
It is the Star Kingdom.
The Star Kingdom is located in the north and adjacent to the Johor Strait. It is located in the south and opposite to the Java Kingdom. It is adjacent to the south entrance of the Strait of Malacca. It guards the main throat of the Strait of Malacca, and its strategic position is very important.
The Strait of Malacca, a maritime channel connecting the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, is the only way for Europe and Africa to sail eastward to Southeast Asia, East Asian ports and Oceania.
The territory of Star Kingdom is less than the size of a county in China, and the total number of gamers is less than 400,000, which is a veritable small place.
It’s such a small place that occupies such an important throat, how can it not attract attention?!
Even if the game map is expanded ten times, the entire territory of Star Kingdom is only 7,000 square kilometers, and it is even less than the upper limit of the territory of 10,000 square kilometers for a third-level county town.
Besides, the area occupied by the only royal city of the Star Kingdom, the Lion City, and the scattered islands around it, the actual area of territory that can be used in the wilderness is even smaller.
Therefore, the entire Star Kingdom currently has only one second-level county town; the rest are five or six player villages scattered on the island. Apart from this, there is no player territory.
The largest port in Xingguo is Sin Chew Port, known as the No. 1 port in Asia. The King City Lion City is located near Sin Chew Port and is a veritable strategic focus.
In order to avoid Lion City, the second-level county town named Fengshan County is located on the east coast of Xingguo. Shicheng and Fengshan County are the only two cities in Xingguo.
As for the player guild, there is only one large guild called [Temasek Mercenary Group], stationed in the Lion City. The rest are either scattered adventure teams or leisurely professional players in life.
Even so, it is still not easy for Ouyang Shuo to conquer the Astrology Kingdom.
Not to mention the others, the 100,000 combat professional adventure players are enough for the Ocean Fleet to have a drink. Not to mention the imperial guards stationed in the Lion City.
According to Gaia's setting, the total number of troops stationed in the royal city accounts for 10% of the total number of players in the country. If there is more than one royal city in a country, it will be distributed evenly and the total number will remain unchanged.
Therefore, the total number of 100 million players in the Chinese region is 10 million. On average, it is also an imperial guard with more than one million.
That's true, it's really hard for the player lord to capture a royal city. You know, the garrisons in the royal city are all elite troops, and well-equipped.
After the emperor enters the royal city, the garrison of the royal city will automatically switch to the special forces of the dynasty. For example, the current garrison of Xianyang City is the famous Daqin Iron Army, which makes the enemy scared.
The one who commanded this Iron Army of Qin was a peerless general like Wang Jian and Meng Tian.
Similarly, the garrisons in Luoyang City were mainly composed of the Han cavalry.
Based on the total number of 400,000 players in Star Country, the Lion City garrison is about 40,000.
If the 40,000 imperial guards were fighting on the local area, Shanhai City would not be worried at all. Just take out a field legion and you could easily overcome it.
The problem is that Ouyang Shuo is now leading a joint fleet of two formations.
In addition, Fengshan County is at least a second-level county town, and it is a second-level county town built to its peak. Conservatively estimated that the territory will not be less than 5,000 troops.
One hundred thousand combat adventure players, forty thousand Lion City garrisons and five thousand Fengshan County troops are the main military forces of the Star Kingdom. If you want to capture Lion City, you must annihilate these three forces one by one.
Yes, it's annihilation.
There is nothing else, because this is a battle to destroy the country, and neither side has the possibility of surrender.
The only thing that made Ouyang Shuo happy was that the Star Civilization belongs to the Greater China Circle, and its science and technology tree refers to the configuration of the Chinese science and technology tree, and there are no Western strong ships and powerful cannons.
Otherwise, there is basically no chance.
***************
On April 20, the Ocean Fleet Dragon Head was on.
The Red Horse Boats sent out to investigate the terrain of the Star Kingdom have returned one after another, bringing detailed information.
In the combat room on the third floor of Dragon Shou, Zheng He, Chen Dameng, Pei Donglai and the four generals, staring at the Star Kingdom map drawn by the intelligence officers and discussing specific combat plans together.
Ouyang Shuo sat in the upper head, silent.
The attack on Xingguo was not Ouyang Shuo's intention to start temporarily, but he had already formulated a set strategy when he was formulating the plan for the great navigation. Zheng He had long known this plan.
The only thing that surprised was the other three generals. For the need for confidentiality, the three of them received the news when the fleet left the waters of the Nansha Islands.
The most shocking of the three was the fireworks monster.
As the captain of the personal guard, Chen Dameng didn't think much about it. His duty was to protect the safety of the king and the prince. Pei Donglai was also an orthodox soldier and would only think about how to implement the king and the prince's order.
The fireworks monster is different. He is a player and has a broad vision. The fireworks monster is too clear about what milestone significance it has in the history of the rise of Shanhai City, especially in maritime hegemony.
He was once again deeply shocked by the ambition of the Lord Ouyang Shuo.
It has to be said that the fireworks monster was extremely passionate at this time. He was very glad that he could wisely choose to integrate into Shanhai City, so that he had the opportunity to participate in such a great cause.
It can be imagined how crazy it will be once domestic players get the news. In reality, Chinese players have criticized the Star Kingdom that guards the Strait of Malacca.
The two countries are said to be friendly countries, but in fact they are constantly in friction.
Once Shanhai City occupy the Star Kingdom, domestic players can only applaud.
"The last thing I think is that the key to this battle is to take down the Lion City as soon as possible, and to be fast." The fireworks demon stared at the map and continued: "It can be foreseeable that if the war is delayed, neighboring countries will inevitably intervene. By then, the fleet that has been besieged by many countries will have to retreat regretfully."
The fireworks monster said it very straightforwardly and pointed out without any hesitation that the possibility of failure of this battle.
When Chen Dameng heard this, he glared at the fireworks demon.
The fireworks monster naturally would not argue with Chen Dameng. He turned to look at Ouyang Shuo in the upper hand and asked him to decide.
"Three days, we only have three days," Ouyang Shuo said.
As for how to capture the Star Kingdom, Ouyang Shuo asked the Military Affairs Office to conduct a detailed simulation before the fleet set off. The Military Affairs Office's Operations Department concluded that it cannot exceed three days, otherwise it will be difficult to clean up the situation.
However, at that time, the Military Affairs Office had no detailed first-hand information and could not formulate a detailed combat plan.
Ouyang Shuo basically agreed with the judgment of the Military Affairs Office. Several famous multi-national melee in his previous life have long been alerting him. ASEAN is just a hornet's nest, and if you don't pay attention, you will make trouble.
Therefore, it is necessary to fight quickly.
"The enemy only has a total of 100,000. Even if they line up and stand there for us to kill, they have to kill the boss for a while. Three days is really too hasty." Pei Donglai frowned.
"So, the only way to win by surprise." The fireworks monster made another suggestion, suddenly stepped forward, and pointed to Fengshan County on the east side of the map. "Liucheng and Fengshan County, one in the middle and the other in the east. The key to breaking the enemy is to make a sound to the east and attack the west. The last general suggested that the fleet be divided into two, one bright and one dark."
"One of them is responsible for attacking Fengshan County. It can be foreseen that once Fengshan County is attacked and the national war begins, the aliens in the enemy country will definitely not give up and will spontaneously come to Fengshan County to support it. Therefore, Fengshan County can be used as bait to continuously annihilate the aliens in the enemy country."
The plan of the fireworks monster made everyone's eyes lit up.
"Continue to talk." Ouyang Shuo remained silent.
"The other one, in a little disguise, temporarily hiding on the sea. When the battle situation in Fengshan County is in a stalemate, suddenly break out and directly kills towards Sin Chew Port and raids Lion City. By then, the Lion City garrison will probably have only 40,000 imperial guards, which will be relatively easier." The fireworks demon explained.
