By the time Bai Zhizhan entered, the room was already filled with smoke, as if it was on fire.

The two were snorting smoke and smoking pipes.

Wang Kaiyuan forget it, the salty and wet uncle in his forties is not strange to smoke a pipe.

But Li Qing is young, and he smokes a pipe, which really doesn't match the noble status of the eldest prince.

Looking at his skillful appearance, his smoking age is not short.

The most annoying thing in the navy is the smoker.

Smoking is absolutely forbidden on aircraft carriers, and even on other warships, smoking in the cabin, at most stealing a few puffs on the open deck.

In the Navy, smokers also do not make up a large percentage.

At least none of the high-ranking officers Bai Zhizhan knew smoked.

Interestingly, on the submarines in the worst conditions, the proportion of smokers is even greater, and even close to half of the officers.

Bai Zhizhan doesn't smoke, but he doesn't hate other people's smoking. There is no way, almost all of these army officers are smokers.

He went and opened the window a crack before he walked over and sat down.

The cold night breeze poured in, and the air in the room was suddenly much fresher.

For more than ten minutes, he had calmed down.

It's one thing to be surprised, but there's no need to be surprised.

This strategic plan, which involves three parties, can be said to be an inevitable result.

The main thing is:

After the formal conclusion of the treaty, the Empire officially declared war on the Kingdom of Bran no later than May 1, within two months of the strategic embargo imposed by the Kingdom of Bran.

If the neutrality of the Locke Republic could not be guaranteed, the Empire would have to bear the war on the Western Front of the Western Continent alone. If an attack on the Locke Republic was necessary, the Empire would need to mobilize for war at least a month in advance, by April 1 at the latest.

The main reason for the double preparation was that the Empire did not want to go to war with the Locke Republic.

Although the negotiators of the Empire did not emphasize the accession of the Laloc Republic, they have consistently stated that war against the Republican is not an option.

After the mobilization of the Empire began, for the purpose of strategic deception, the Liangxia Empire would hand over 3,000 tanks, 2,000 heavy artillery pieces, 10,000 military trucks, 1,000 combat aircraft, and 500 railway locomotives to the Luosha Federation in the name of joint defense and in accordance with the method of pre-war deployment. However, it was not until after the Riman Empire officially entered the war that the Liangxia Empire sent fighters to the Luosha Federation as agreed.

In this arrangement, these weapons and equipment are actually used as collateral for security.

Fundamentally, the Luosha Federation did not trust the Liangxia Empire and the Juman Empire, so they asked for these collaterals to strengthen their own defense capabilities.

The counterpart to the requirement is the obligation.

Within a month after the Empire officially declared war on the Bran Kingdom, that is, before June 1, the Luosha Federation sent troops to assist the Empire, sweeping the eastern part of the Western Continent, attacking and occupying several small states between the two countries, and eliminating the worries of the Empire.

At this point, the first stage of the strategic offensive was completed.

At this stage, there is only one main purpose.

Open up the ground communication line from the Liangxia Empire to the Riman Empire to ensure that at any time, weapons, equipment, ammunition and medicine resources can be continuously transported to the Riman Empire.

The Rosa Federation can also benefit from this.

This was followed by the second phase of the strategic offensive.

On the first day of the second half of the year at the latest, that is, on July 1, the Empire had to impose a strategic blockade of the Bran Kingdom, which was mainly based on submarine warfare.

Depending on the situation of the war, it is decided whether or not to carry out strategic bombing.

If needed, the Liangxia Empire will provide 1,500 twin-engine bombers to the Empire by July 1, and another 1,500 in the second half of the year.

Again, depending on the actual situation, it is decided whether to send pilots to the war.

Because there are too many uncertainties, there are no hard and fast rules on strategic bombing.

On the side of the Luosha Federation, the "southbound" operation will be launched simultaneously. Through the shackled land bridge between the Mohai Sea and the Broad Sea, he sent troops to attack the Boi Kingdom, which was controlled by the Bran Kingdom.

If Luo Sha's army made a major breakthrough before October 1, the Liangxia Empire sent its army and army aviation to launch a coordinated attack in the direction of Van Luo.

If no breakthrough is made, the Liang Xia Empire promises to send a fleet to fight in Fanyan Ocean within the year, at the latest at the beginning of next year.

At this stage, the Luosha Federation behaved more actively, and it was going to the "ice-free port".

For hundreds of years, starting with Pitt the Great, the Rosa Empire has struggled southward to obtain a port that would not freeze in winter.

Even now, the Luosha Federation has not given up.

Because the east was blocked by the Liangxia Empire, and the west was the Riman Empire, the only way out for the Luosha Federation was to go south from the shackled land bridge to Fanyanyang.

On the Guia side, the Liangxia Empire was also to launch a strategic offensive of the same scale.

However, according to the actual battle situation, it was divided into two sets of plans.

If the Sasan Imperial State is defeated, or if the threat is completely lost, the Liang Xia Empire will have to launch an attack on Shiquan City within the year, seize and control the throat strait into the Fanyan Ocean, and ensure that if necessary, it can immediately send a fleet into the Fanyan Ocean.

If the Imperial State of Sayi had not been defeated, or if the Newland Federation had already entered the war, the Liang Xia navy would have to put its main force on the Guia Ocean to meet a strong enemy, then it would send troops to the Toe Peninsula within the year, and advance south and direction along the Toe Peninsula, and march by land to Shiquan City and Van Luo.

There is only one key.

After entering the second stage, the Liangxia Empire could not continue to stay out of the situation, and had to take action to align itself with the two allies.

This, of course, is tantamount to acknowledging the great threat posed by the Nuland Federation.

Although both the Empire and the Locksa Federation emphasized the threat of the Bran Kingdom and believed that the focus should be on the west, they did not deny that the Newland Federation was the real enemy in the long run. It is precisely because of this that the Liangxia Empire is required to place its main force in the Guia.

With the foundation laid in the second phase, it's easy to talk about next.

In the later attack, the troops are still divided into three ways, but more attention is paid to coordination and cooperation.

On the western side, the Empire will advance southward, striving to sweep the northern shore of Luxinhai, and advance to the southeast at the right time to join the Luosha army.

In the middle, after Luo Sha's army reaches the north shore of Posha Bay, it will split into two routes.

All the way to the west, first try to persuade the Republic of There to join the alliance, or else unite the Terman army and capture the region as quickly as possible.

The other way to the east, advancing towards Van Luo, and together with the Liang Xia army, flanked the Bran army in the area.

On the eastern route, the Liangxia Empire focused on the area around the Yanhai Sea, and after securing the strategic superiority of the Guia, it gave priority to advancing into the southwestern Guia.

The main strategic purpose is not to attack Austria, but to prevent the Nuland Federation from sending troops to Fanyanyang.

On this basis, offensive operations in the direction of the Toe Peninsula and the Gangaro Plain were considered, and they were certainly dominated by ground advances.

Because the shipping line connecting the three parties cannot bypass Fan Yanyang, it is necessary to ensure Fan Yanyang's sea control rights.

Comparatively speaking, the third phase of the strategic offensive has made much broader restrictions.

There are too many uncertainties on the battlefield to predict them all, and it is impossible to make a detailed plan.

Just the strategic offensive plan of the first two stages is scary enough.
