Chapter 579: Bold Guess
"According to you, as long as you don't find a suitable reason, will you keep putting it off?"
"Not to mention, that's the key."
"If the Empire has made up its mind, how can it be possible to stand still for a spurious reason?"
"Even if you don't have to, then you have to have it."
……
Li Mingbo and Zheng Jiangming seem to be singing both sides, and this question and answer seem to have forgotten the white stop battle in the same car.
Bai Zhizhan has always frowned, and did not participate in the conversation between Zheng Jiangming and Li Mingbo.
In fact, as Zheng Jiangming said at the beginning, the Alliance Group has been using the Raleigh Kingdom to try to make the Raleigh Kingdom become a black sheep in the Entente family.
The problem now is that time is running out to get the alliance bloc to make a fuss.
After taking the Xifan Canal, it was only a matter of time before the Imperial Navy attacked Lu Xinhai, and it was easier to seize Lu Xinhai's sea dominance.
At that time, will the Raleigh Kingdom still be half-hearted?
In the usual style of the Raleigh Kingdom, it was certain that a fleet would be sent into battle immediately in order to consolidate its position in the Entente bloc and ensure that it would become a victorious power.
It's hard to say the position of the Empire, but the Liang Xia Empire will definitely choose not to blame the past.
Of course, according to the understanding of the White Stop, at least during the war, there is no need for the Manman Empire to worry about the Raleigh Kingdom, and most of them will open the net.
Even if he is very dissatisfied with the two-faced and three-sided swords of the Raleigh Kingdom, before the end of the war, he has to focus on the overall situation.
It can be seen that no matter how high the price is offered by the alliance group, the Raleigh Kingdom will not be tempted.
If you use the battlefield as a casino, the Raleigh Kingdom is a small gambler with few chips in his hand, but he likes to daydream and follow the trend.
In Zheng Jiangming's words, the Raleigh Kingdom cannot become the Luosha Federation.
What is lacking is not only strength, but also more important ambition.
The biggest dream of the Raleigh Kingdom is nothing more than to reproduce the glory of the Roman Empire, occupy the coast of Lu Xinhai, and turn Lu Xinhai into its own inner lake.
Obviously, in terms of vital core interests, the Raleigh Kingdom did not conflict with the two empires of the Entente bloc, and there was not much to do with it.
In other words, the benefits that the Allied bloc can give, the Entente bloc can also give.
So, will the alliance be able to drag on?
"Have you ever thought that after going through so many things, the Riman Empire will still be able to let a two-faced ally control the vital Lu Xinhai?"
Bai Zhizhan suddenly came out with a sentence, which shocked Zheng Jiangming and Li Mingbo.
However, Bai Zhizhan didn't seem to notice the expressions of the two.
"Don't forget, on the issue of dividing the sphere of influence, the problem on Lu Xinhai's side is the most prominent, and it has not been properly resolved so far."
"You're saying that the Empire is going to give up the Raleigh Kingdom?" Li Mingbo asked first, and then looked at Bai Zhizhan and Zheng Jiangming through the rearview mirror in the car.
Bai Zhizhan didn't say anything, he just brought up a new topic.
"It is possible, and given the current situation, it may be the best solution. In any case, we need oil from Posha Bay, and we have to rely on the input of the Republic of There in that direction. The value of the Raleigh Kingdom is obviously not comparable to that of the Republic of There. ”
"Malta."
After Bai Zhizhan said it, Zheng Jiangming nodded slightly.
"What?"
Li Mingbo didn't understand it at first, but after he opened his mouth, he immediately thought of it.
With the current situation, the strategic initiative is in the hands of the Entente, or it is not good for the Alliance to drag it out, so the Alliance will definitely try to plot against the Raleigh Kingdom, and the sooner the better. Whatever the Allies do, they must take the vital Malta.
Even if you are not able to rebel against the Raleigh Kingdom, you can consider sending troops from Malta to attack the Raleigh Kingdom.
For example, landing in Sicily.
To put it bluntly, as long as Malta is taken, everything is easy to say.
Otherwise, the alliance group will soon lose Lu Xinhai, and the previous efforts in the direction of Lu Xinhai, including the landing in the western part of the Beixuan region, will become meaningless.
"Who replaced Rommel on his way to Benghazi?"
"I heard it's a stand-in."
"What?"
Zheng Jiangming sighed with a wry smile and said, "According to the previous arrangement, deception is the main thing, so the officer who was sent over was somewhat similar to Rommel. ”
"In this way, the Manman authorities are really determined to take the Raleigh Kingdom."
"In this matter, the Empire actually has no choice."
After Zheng Jiangming said this, Bai Zhizhan nodded and did not express other opinions.
As for the meaning of this sentence, it could not be more obvious.
As mentioned earlier, not only the Liangxia Empire, but also the Palman Empire, now all of them are now counting on the Posha Bay oil fields within the sphere of influence of the Republic of There.
Although the Imperial Army occupies and controls Posha Bay, it has to establish a good relationship with the Republic of There to ensure that the local oil fields can be produced normally, and the oil produced will continue to be shipped out, so that the war machine of the Liangxia Empire and the Yama Empire can continue to operate.
The reason is that the workers in the oil fields, as well as the workers in the ports, are all dispatched and managed by the Republic of Ther.
"Ready at home?"
"There must be preparation, but whether it is done or not, it is difficult to say."
Bai Zhizhan's brows jumped a few times, and then he looked at Zheng Jiangming.
"The Western Continent is the home of the Juman Empire, and we haven't entered the Land Heart Sea yet, and it will take at least half a month to clear the mines laid by the Bran army and open up a safe shipping lane." Zheng Jiangming sighed before he said: "The Empire is ruthless, and we can only sigh with admiration. ”
Bai Zhizhan rubbed his forehead vigorously before saying, "There is another possibility, maybe we didn't think of it." ”
Zheng Jiangming was stunned, but didn't answer.
"Let the Raleigh Kingdom become a quagmire and consume the forces of the Riman Empire."
"This ......"
"If the alliance group has been secretly in contact with the Raleigh Kingdom, and the high-level officials of the Raleigh Kingdom have indeed defected to the alliance group, at least before that, even if this idea has been dispelled now, in the previous months, there would be enough time to complete the targeted deployment."
"You're saying that the Raleigh Kingdom will become the Luosha Federation?"
"It's unlikely, but the kingdom of Raleigh does have the potential to become a battlefield that can devour a large number of troops. Even if it's a civil war. ”
Zheng Jiangming's expression had darkened, obviously worried.
"From a strategic point of view, this is the key to the alliance group preventing us from rushing out of Lu Xinhai, or preventing Lu Xinhai from entering the sunset ocean."
"And even if that's the case, what?"
"There are two keys, one is Tunisia and the other is Malta. If my speculation is correct, then the Confederate group will definitely march on Tunisia in advance, and the Hindan army will give up on its own initiative, at least not stubbornly resist. Next, the Hindman army will consider whether to abandon Malta according to the actual situation. ”
"If you give up Malta, you ...... future"
"As long as we attack Lu Xinhai, what else is there to worry about?"
Hearing Bai Zhizhan say this, Zheng Jiangming let out a long breath.
"Anyway, we're going to have to hurry."
"When I got back, I called to ask about the situation. If you really guess, we must consider launching an operation to invade Lu Xinhai in advance. ”
Bai Zhizhan nodded and didn't say anything more.
