Chapter 174: Air Intelligence Blockade Line (I)
Ye Yinzhu said: "If I remember well, you told me before that the Air Force is the most difficult army to form, because the requirements in all aspects are too high. Just like the Milan Empire, after years of hard work, it only had a five hundred-sequence hawks and dragon cavalry, which was destroyed in my hands."
Oliveira smiled bitterly and said, "You still said that the loss almost made my grandfather vomit blood. It was the most expensive dragon cavalry and the ace of our Milan Empire. Its role in the army is too great. The result was all destroyed in your song "Dragon Xiang Cao".
Ye Yinzhu said: "Then is there such an air force in the Florida Kingdom?"
Oliveira shook her head firmly and said, "No, there are definitely not. The Kingdom of Florida may have several dragons, but it is impossible to have an air force. On the mainland, besides our Milan, only Landias can have such capabilities."
Ye Yinzhu smiled indifferently, with a light of wisdom flashing in her eyes, "That's easy to deal with. Let's build an air intelligence line for the back of the Florida army. Don't they want food and supplies? Once they transport it, we will destroy it once. We only have three thousand people. With mobile guerrillas, I will break this Florida supply line with sufficient intelligence."
Oliveira's eyes flashed, "Good idea. In this way, if the Florids want to get supplies, they can only send troops back to the country and protect their food and grass from beginning to end. But even so, they may not be able to withstand our beast-level charge. But..."
Ye Yinzhu said: "But what? Brother, you are more expert in military affairs than me. If you have any questions, please raise them and let us discuss them together."
Oliveira smiled and shook her head, "Maybe I have more military classes than you, and I am better than you in some specific aspects, but in terms of overall situations, I am far inferior to you. If I guessed well, I am afraid that the entire map of the Kingdom of Florida will be deeply imprinted in your mind now, including the comparison and position between our army and the Florida army, which are all within your calculations."
Ye Yinzhu smiled and said, "To put it bluntly, I have to thank Sula. Sula told me before that when two armies confront each other, intelligence is the top priority. Only by having a good intelligence network and fully grasping the enemy's movements can you make the best choice. Brother, what are you worried about?"
Oliveira said in a deep voice: "I'm worried that the Florids will be anxious."
"Oh?" Ye Yinzhu's eyes showed a hint of surprise, but soon returned to normal, and a sudden look appeared in the depths of her eyes. "You mean, the Florids would burn their boats and launch a desperate attack on Milan in order to achieve the goal of fighting to support war and plunder Milan's food and grass?"
Oliveira nodded and said, "Once you are forced to a desperate situation, this is the best choice. Retreat to protect food and grass can only miss the opportunity to fight and give us a chance to breathe. If the Florida commander is smart enough, he will definitely choose to attack. Although our east is not as rich as the Puglia Plain, there will never be less food and grass where the army is stationed."
Ye Yinzhu frowned slightly. He did want to miss this problem. His eyes flashed and his brain started to run rapidly. "Brother, according to the current situation, how many days can the Florida army last?"
Oliveira thought for a while and said, "The consumption of 500,000 troops is an astronomical figure. According to common sense, the Florida army itself can last for up to three to five days. If it comes to the most difficult time, killing the mount to maintain the food of the soldiers, it can last for about three more days. That is, eight days."
Ye Yinzhu nodded and said, "In other words, in eight days, the Florids will go hungry."
Oliveira said: "That is in an ideal state. Judging from the current location of the Florids, as long as their domestic supply allocation is fast enough, within six days, the first batch of supply supplies will definitely be delivered to the Florids. If it is faster, it will be almost done in five days."
Ye Yinzhu thought for a while and said, "What is the situation of the Milan Oriental Legion now? If Flor launches a storm attack, where will they first attack?"
Oliveira said without hesitation: "In the previous battles, although the Eastern Legion relied on its strong city to defend, it also suffered heavy losses, with at least 20% of its personnel reduced, and its actual combat effectiveness was at most 150,000. Moreover, these soldiers were not baptized by war, and their combat effectiveness was much weaker than that of the elite Florida army. Now these 150,000 troops are hoarded in three border cities, with Sford City, an important city on the eastern border as the center, forming a defensive line across the border. If the Florida wants to succeed, they must rush through this to the defense line."
Ye Yinzhu quickly took out the sheepskin map, squatted on the ground, spread the map, Olivei stretched out his hand and pointed at the map, pointing to him the location of the three cities he mentioned and the current location of the Florida Army and Qincheng mixed army.
Ye Yinzhu's hand fell on a large open space behind Sford City, "What is the terrain here?"
Oliveira said: "This is a hilly area, which stretches for about hundreds of miles. The eastern border of the empire is not as prosperous as the northwest border. The main economic point is among the cities on the border. Moreover, there are vast primeval forests among these hills, because it is winter now and there are no edible fruits. After passing the hills, we will reach our Milan. This entire land is vast and sparsely populated. Without a half-month march, it is difficult to see prosperous cities or towns." He obviously had grasped the meaning of Ye Yinzhu, so when explaining, he focused on the Milan border here.
Ye Yinzhu's hand quickly passed by the map, "In other words, the Milan Empire is distributed, and the main prosperous areas are in the south, southwest and northwest. The east is the most barren, right?"
Oliveira nodded and said, "That's right."
Ye Yinzhu's black eyes lit up, "Brother Oliveira, if you were the commander of Florida, what would you choose to perform this storm-down attack?"
After pondering for a while, Oliveira pointed to the map and said, "I will send a large army to form a formation under the three border cities, two of which are surrounded without attacking, and do their best to attack one of them, launching a charge regardless of losses. As long as you can break the city, get supplies from it, and then break the other two cities is not difficult. At that time, you only need to send a large army back to the country to protect and replenish the supplies continuously, and even use the power of this army to wipe out our guerrillas, and you will no longer have any worries. The remaining army, at least 300,000, directly advance into the empire, like a sharp knife, breaking the rear of the empire."
Ye Yinzhu smiled and nodded, "What if I open the defense line and let you go? Will you be willing to enter Milan directly?"
Oliveira was stunned for a moment, and a hint of horror appeared in her eyes, "Yinzhu, what do you mean?"
Ye Yinzhu said: "I just asked you, if I open a gap and let your army pass through my defense line, will you agree?"
Oliveira shook her head firmly, "Never. First of all, I don't know if this is your trap. Secondly, and most importantly. The situation does not allow me to do that at all. The 500,000 army needs too much food. With the current situation of Florida, it will take at least three days to reach the three cities on the border. Even if they have not passed the battle, they will not be able to obtain any supplies for more than ten days before they arrive at the next city. If they use the killing mount as food during the period, the speed of advance will be further reduced. In this way,
We don’t even have to do anything. When they arrive at the city within the empire, they will no longer have much combat power. What’s more, behind them, there are more than 100,000 Eastern Legions in the Empire. From any perspective, no matter what kind of commander, they will not make such a failed decision. The first prerequisite for advancing into the empire is to have supplies. In addition, if I were a Florida, under such a huge gap in military strength, I would definitely wipe out the Eastern Legion completely before I could continue to move forward to eliminate my worries.”
Ye Yinzhu clapped her hands, "That's easy to do. Brother Oliveira, I have an idea. If it can be realized, even if the entire battle cannot be reversed, the Florids will suffer a great loss."
While talking, Ye Yinzhu said something to Olivera.
Listening to his words, the surprise in Oliveira's eyes became stronger and stronger. In the end, it even turned into horror, "No, how can this be done? Yinzhu, this is too dangerous. It definitely won't work."
Ye Yinzhu smiled indifferently, "Do I have experienced fewer dangers? Do you think this Florida 500,000 army is stronger than the 300,000 army of your Northern Legion? At the beginning, the total number of soldiers and civilians in Qincheng was only more than 20,000 people, and they could resist your 300,000 army. Could it be that this time I could not stop the Florida charge with more than 100,000 support from the Eastern Legion? And don't forget that I also asked Grandma Nina for the 100,000 logistics supply army. What I need now is the absolute right to allocate the Eastern Legion."
Oliveira's eyes flashed with light and her face looked gloomy and gloomy. After listening to Ye Yinzhu's plan, he knew in his heart that this was the best way. However, Yinzhu...
