Chapter 675 Hu Ben Army's Grand Canal Strategy(2/2)
That's right, this Grand Canal is the lifeline of the Ming Empire.
The Hu Ben Army controlled this lifeline, which was equivalent to mastering the lifeline of the world.
To go further, after mastering both sides of the Grand Canal, the Hu Ben Army can also use the Grand Canal as a support and continue to unfold along the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. The Yangtze River and the Yellow River both sides gather the most important inland towns and populations. As long as these two horizontal and vertical lines are in the hands of the Hu Ben Army, the world is basically in the hands of the Hu Ben Army.
What ships are suitable for fighting in the canal? Of course, it is Cangshan boats. Zhang Zhun has always felt a little regretful, thinking that those Cangshan boats would gradually lose their function as the Hubshan Navy gradually became stronger. Due to design reasons, Cangshan boats could not fight from the ocean. Now it seems that these Cangshan boats can play a role again when they are replaced by another place.
At present, the Hu Ben Navy has more than 30 Cangshan ships. If they are concentrated in the canal, it will be enough to razor all the towns on both sides of the canal to the ground. Of course, he will not do this madly. He will only use the deterrence of the Cangshan ships to make the defenders on both sides of the canal retreat.
It is not difficult to let the Cangshan boats concentrate in the canal. You can go upstream from the Bohai Bay along the Yellow River. The water level of the Yellow River is very shallow now, of course not. However, as long as you wait until summer, the water of the Yellow River rises, the Cangshan boats can go upstream and enter the canal waters, and from then on, you will fight in the canal waters. If the Yellow River cannot be used, then enter from the estuary of the Yangtze River. It is definitely a breeze to send the Cangshan boat in under the escort of the Dabai Fleet.
Aren’t the Tartars in Cangzhou? Didn’t they think the Tiger Army could not do anything to them? The damn thing was, let the Cangshan boat bombard them! As long as the red-clothed cannons of the Tartars were not moved, the Tartars would have to be beaten. The red-clothed cannons of the Tartars were difficult to move, and they were far less flexible than the Cangshan boat.
"Dry!"
Zhang Zhun slapped hard.
"grown ups……"
Lu Yidian asked in a little confusion.
He didn't understand why Zhang Zhun became so excited all of a sudden.
"Oh, it's okay, you can go ahead and get on!"
Zhang Zhun woke up and waved his hand and said.
Lu Yidian turned around and went.
The problem of the Grand Canal strategy is not yet implemented. Now, we will solve the food problem in Dezhou City first. Zhang Zhun's last gaze fell on Linqing. His fingers slowly slid from Dezhou to Linqing.
"Bang!"
Zhang Zhun gently reached out and pressed the Linqing position on the map.
"Brother Wei!"
Zhang Zhun shouted loudly.
"arrive!"
Brother Wei hurried in and waited for instructions.
Zhang Zhun said sternly: "Send someone to send a command to the Dragon Cavalry Camp and come to Texas to see me immediately!"
Brother Wei agreed to go.
Chapter completed!
