Chapter 860: The Scared Krull
In the end, as Lin Ziran expected, the Krull Kingdom did not have the courage or confidence to start an all-out war with the empire for an oil field.
Because the main naval force assembled by the Daheng Imperial Navy was so swaggering outside the Quping Naval Base, the six latest unified all-heavy artillery battleships and a number of heavy cruisers directly made the Krull Kingdom Navy 'strongly recommend' the cabinet to exercise restraint!
Even if you want to fight, it's not now, and you can't be stupid and go head-to-head with Dahengren!
Now the new battleships of the Krull Kingdom Navy have just started construction, even if they are working day and night, but it is estimated that it will take a year and a half or even two years before they are completed and put into service.
This means that within two or three years, the Krull Kingdom will be at an absolute disadvantage in terms of new warships.
At this time, fighting hard with the Daheng Imperial Navy, although the Navy of the Krull Kingdom has more old-style ships and a larger total tonnage, it has no chance of winning in the bottom of his heart.
In addition to naval considerations, there is also a very important point that the Krull Kingdom is not stupid, even if it wants to fight with the Great Heng people, it has to be pulled into the Orissa Empire.
The world boss and the world's second boss go head-to-head, and they will lose both, which won't make Kekel, the Walya Empire and other countries benefit.
So if you want to fight, you have to bring other countries together to fight.
Of course, the key point is that through the first few days of raids, the KA has already occupied a great strategic advantage, and its forward troops have even killed the Kean oil field, forcing the Western Union Army to blow up many oil field facilities and ignite the oil well to retreat.
The Krull Kingdom believes that the Republican Army already has a great strategic advantage, so it should be possible to do it without the help of the elite troops secretly sent by itself.
Another crucial factor is that they Kruer people have been exploring for oil on the mainland of their kingdom island, and there is good news in the coastal areas of the northeast, their oil survey team has found oil, although the final reserves are not yet known, but the front-line surveyors report that it will be a very optimistic data, at least a large oil field with an annual output of one million tons!
Therefore, after weighing it, the Krull people directly and quietly withdrew the thousands of elite troops of the Krull Kingdom in the republican army.
Now there is no need to completely turn the face with Daheng people for this bit of oil!
And the Daheng Empire also made a menacing appearance as usual and wanted to fight people, but when it saw that the Krull Kingdom quietly withdrew the elite troops in the republican army, it also ordered the naval fleet to be disbanded, so what should I do.
To put it bluntly, the Daheng Empire is just to scare people, even if the navy of the Daheng Empire can rely on new warships to suppress the navy of the Krull Kingdom to a certain extent, but seriously, it does not have the ability to kill with one blow, even if the Krull Kingdom can't beat your few cutting-edge warships, it is not afraid to bully your other warships, and most of the warships of the two navies are old warships.
It's hard to say whether or not the Krull Kingdom can be blocked, let alone forced to submit.
So in the end, if you fight, you will definitely lose both.
And the Daheng Empire is not stupid here, this can scare people, but if you really go up and fight, it will become a real stupidity!
As a result, the conflict between the two countries, which was thought to be caused by the civil war in the Ken area, actually lasted only a few days, and ordinary people outside did not even know that there was such a thing, and the diplomats of the two sides were already sitting together and communicating with each other.
After this was impossible to end in person, the two sides went back to the old path of proxy war, and the civil war on the side of the Republic of Ken went back to the old ways.
Only this time, the Western Alliance was beaten too badly in the early stage, and in just a few days, the three main divisions they deployed on the first line were completely finished, and the two divisions on the second line of defense were also severely damaged.
And they only have a total of eight divisions!
So the situation in the Ken area has changed now, but it doesn't matter!
With the Great Heng Empire on the side, the Western Alliance does not have to worry about being completely wiped out, no, the Liej volunteers who were helped by the Great Heng people soon set foot on the land of the Republic of Kean.
Many people in the Liej Kingdom have already gone to the Western Alliance of the Republic of Kean on their own to serve as soldiers, and most of them are still strong and have good tactical literacy, well, most of these people are actually retired soldiers in the Liej Kingdom.
Of course, the kingdom of Liej did not dare to directly transfer the active troops after temporarily retiring from the army, but directly mobilized the retired personnel in the civilian population to go to the east to participate in the war and support the brothers of the Liej.
After all, most of the people in the western part of the Kean region are still of the Liej race, which was part of the Liej kingdom a few decades ago.
The people who live in these two places are all Liej, and to put it bluntly, they are a family.
Of course, several leaders of the Western Alliance, all of whom are careerists, will not return to the Kingdom of Liej with the Western Alliance, but want to establish an independent state and establish a new Kingdom of Kean.
Therefore, although the two sides have a close relationship, they are always two independent political groups, and the influence of the Kingdom of Liej on the Liej people in the Kenn region is actually very limited.
The Great Heng Empire is the real backer of the Liliej people in the Kean region!
After the initial successive defeats, the Western Alliance gradually retreated to the west, and at this time, the Republican Army lost the lead of the elite troops of the Krull Kingdom, and gradually lost its sharpness, and the battle line gradually stabilized.
After the follow-up Western Alliance re-recruited and urgently trained tens of thousands of troops, it began a large-scale counteroffensive and hit the Kean oil field directly!
And when it comes to hitting, it can't be beaten.
This oil field area is very important, what are the two sides fighting in this civil war for?
Not for the oil fields yet!
The Great Heng Empire and the Krull Kingdom are for the oil fields, in fact, they themselves are also for the oil fields.
Therefore, after the republican army finally seized the oil field area, it began to build strong fortifications here and deployed the main force, including two heavy artillery regiments.
The Western Alliance suffered tens of thousands of casualties, but only recaptured a small half of the oil field area, and then the two sides fought repeatedly around the oil field area, but no one could help anyone.
The Daheng Empire looked at it, although it was said that the Western Alliance could not recapture the oil field, and the oil field could not be completely used by the empire, but it didn't matter, the Daheng Empire was not short of oil in the first place.
The Great Heng Empire wants to control the Kean oil field, purely because it doesn't want other countries to get the oil here, and it doesn't matter if it can get it or not.
So it doesn't matter if this stalemate ends!
