The western Indian defensive line, Ram Fortress, this fortress was built at the pass of a canyon, and the Indians built Ram Fortress at the narrowest point of the canyon. The fortress is all made of stone. There were a large number of fortified weapons inside, and in addition, a large number of trenches were built nearby, and the Indians garrisoned here with more than 20,000 men. And the Yueshi people have only two infantry regiments. Obviously, it's unlikely that the Yueshi people will make a big move here.

"The above are inspecting the situation here, and they think that our position here is better, because if the Ram fortress is conquered, we can easily control this place. From Ram, you can go straight to the plains behind. We can threaten the rear of the entire Indy army. In that case, all Indians would become prisoners of war. Major Sturt, commander of the Yue's 1st Engineer Battalion, said excitedly. They were the first engineer battalion unit of the Yueshi, and they had been surveying the condition of the roads before, and they had only been mobilized here not long ago, but after coming here, Stert decided to do a big deal. His men were all miners, and they had long been exposed to Qin's explosives. Black powder and the like, after they entered the Qin army, such things were quickly replenished into their hands, so they didn't lack such things very much, or rather, they were able to do a lot of things now.

"What are you going to do?" Qin State Advisor, Major Zhang Shun asked. He was only an infantryman, and in his opinion, in the absence of sufficient artillery support, it was a wishful dream for the Yueshi to use two infantry regiments to open the Ram fortress, which was like a dog looking at bones by the Indians. Because it simply can't be successful.

"Don't be surprised if I tell me my plan." Sturt said with a smile.

"Okay, you say, I know what you think." Zhang Shun asked.

"I plan to use our old business, you know, I am a sapper, without the support of artillery, those infantry cannot do this, maybe the Indians also understand this, so, the two sides are just a stalemate, and there are not too many breakthroughs, but recently, I heard that there are considerations from above, to choose a breakthrough again, I think, the opportunity has come. We are sappers. Stert repeatedly emphasized that he was a sapper.

"I know that sappers are very special, but sappers are only useful before and after the war, and they are unlikely to be involved in the war all at once, and I think you might come up with other ways to do this." Zhang Shun said with a smile.

"That's right, my friend. I'm planning to do a big deal, I've already figured it out. We will dig a tunnel, and this tunnel will lead directly to the bottom of the Ram fortress, and then below, we will place many, many explosives, among which are the high explosives of your Qin State. Approximately, I think about it, I need, about a thousand stones. No, no, 1,000 stone is not enough, I plan to place 10,000 stones, and then the entire fortress, along with the damned Indians, will disappear completely. What I'm saying is true. Sturt said with a smile.

"Oh my God." When Zhang Shun heard this plan, he felt that it was simply the craziest action, because 10,000 stone explosives, including quite a lot of high explosives, were enough to blow up the entire fortress into the sky.

"You, your plan is crazy." Zhang Shun said after being surprised.

"Yes, it's crazy, but I think it's easy for me to support me from above, we just need to dig a tunnel, the ground here is not very hard, it's easy to dig, and it's very hard down there, the Indians can't think of that, I've already calculated it. From here, we dug for about seven days, about three miles forward, dug in a straight line, and then spent another seven days, digging a large enough space, placing enough explosives, and I believe, we would definitely succeed, and the Indians would never have thought that a great sapper would come up with such a plan. Sturt said.

"Your plan is crazy, you know?" Zhang Shun looked at the other party and said. The other party was obviously very excited, and he felt that his plan would be very successful.

And at this time, within Moran's headquarters, this plan was being considered.

"Sir, I think this plan may be very surprising, because we have tried to do this with sappers before, and we have had this experience, and if we can blow this fortress into the sky at once with a lot of explosives, I think we will undoubtedly be very successful." A major officer said excitedly. Sturt's battle plan was sent to Moran's staff, and one of the staff officers appreciated the plan so much that he decided to push it out of spite of all the introductions, because it looked crazy.

"I feel like it's a waste. 10,000 stone of explosives, and quite a lot of high explosives in them, we can use those guns to solve the problem. Moran said with a feeling of waste.

"Can I take a look at this battle plan?" Meng Ping said.

"Absolutely. Sir. The major handed Meng Ping the battle plan. After Meng Ping quickly looked at it, he felt that this plan looked very crazy, but there was indeed merit in the back, after all, near the Ram Fortress, the Yueshi people only had two infantry regiments, and the Indians must have relaxed their vigilance, and in a short period of time, if the Yueshi people want to mobilize troops to assemble, it may take a long time, and the location of the Ram Fortress is very important, starting from the Ram area, the back is all plains. If you put down the cavalry troops, they can easily occupy a lot of space. It was a direct threat to the flanks and rear flanks of the Indica army, and if this plan was implemented, a breakthrough was very likely.

"I think this plan is feasible." Meng Ping thought for a while and said.

"My friend, are you crazy?" Mo Lan looked at Meng Ping and asked.

"This plan is just an idea, if it is boldly implemented, we need quite a lot of explosives, and if it fails, the losses will be very heavy." Moran looked at Meng Ping and said.

"That's true, but our current situation has decided that we have to do it. My friend. Think about it, we have more than 20,000 Indians in the Laam area, and we have only two infantry regiments, no more than 5,000 at most, the difference in strength is very large, the Indians occupy a very strong fortress, and they dig too many trenches, if we want to attack, it will cost at least five infantry regiments. The strength of the three cavalry regiments, and the two artillery regiments, the time to mobilize troops far exceeded our preparation time, and the Indians are likely to react, at that time, the Ram fortress will become difficult to break, we will not be able to break through the Ram fortress, in this case, we will have to choose another place. It is difficult to calculate the amount of troops, time, and materials spent. Meng Ping thought about it and said.

"But if we can break through and open this fortress just by using engineering troops, it will be very helpful for us, and we can solve a lot of problems. For example, we can start from Ram and directly threaten the flank of the Indy army, and the enemy will certainly not think that we will do this, and they will have a hard time imagining what the consequences of our doing this will be for the other side, and this is an opportunity for us, which is very beneficial to us, but if we do not do this, it will cost more resources, troops, time, and supplies. But in doing so, it's just a matter of using some explosives. It's nothing. Meng Ping said.

"In this case, the cost is more cost-effective." Moran said.

"Yes, it's a great deal. That's what I think, war needs to take into account the cost. Meng Ping said.

"Hmm. Okay, but I need you to be able to prove that it's very cost-effective, it's feasible. The Indians will not find out, you know, if they find a lot of explosives, they just need to open a small opening, and everything will be in favor of the Indians, not us. Moran said.

"I think we can give it a try, it's a lot of risk, but it's also very rewarding, and I think we should try it, after all, it's war, and who knows what will happen." Meng Ping said.

"Well, my friend, you may be right, we should be bold and try." Moran said.

Immediately, the plan began to discuss whether it was feasible.

Goguryeo. Inside Li Wending's headquarters.

"Qi is blackmail, but I think that if we can take the initiative on the battlefield, I think we can still succeed." Li Wending thought about it and said.

"It's just that, not knowing how we can take the initiative on the battlefield, our soldiers are reluctant to launch a bigger offensive, they consider it useless, demoralized, simply unable to solve all the problems, perhaps, we can buy some white phosphorus grenades, this is a new product." Hawke recommends. He received a letter of recommendation from the Qin State Arsenal, and he hoped to be able to use such a new weapon in the Peninsula War.

"No, no, no. We've got a secret weapon, a very good secret weapon. Li Wending said with a smile.

"Secret weapon, I don't know what kind of secret weapon?" Hawke asked.

"This secret weapon can change our situation on the battlefield, and our Goguryeo side will occupy a lot of initiative, which is very conducive to us to further change our current situation, and I think this secret weapon is very beneficial to us." Li Wending said. Hawke was a little puzzled, he was in charge of the import of weapons, he knew that Goguryeo didn't have too many secret weapons at the moment, they were all conventional weapons, such as. Mortars, rifles, submachine guns and such weapons. However, they don't have a secret weapon yet.

"Tell you what. The Yan people used poison gas, and later the poison gas was sold to us. They have been stored and unused, and if we use such weapons, especially in a situation like the one on the peninsula, we can completely change the current situation. Li Wending said.

"I think, this is very crazy, you know, the Qin people are very opposed to poison gas, if they know that we use poison gas, they won't be able to get the support of the Qin people." Hawke said.

"Don't talk about the Qin State. Without Qin, we can still do this, you know, the Qin people provide us with some conventional weapons at most, but such weapons of mass destruction, they never give us. Now it's the Koreans, the Yan people help us, if we can't do something on the battlefield, what will the Yan people, the Koreans think of us, we can't do such a thing at all, so these poison gases must be used. Li Wending said resolutely.

"This." Hawke felt that he should be firmly opposed. However, Li Wending's reasons for saying that only when Goguryeo occupied the initiative on the battlefield could such a problem be completely solved. If you don't take the initiative, the negotiating table becomes extremely disadvantageous.

"Well, it's better that no one knows about it, and perhaps, we should tell the Yan people or the Koreans. It's better to let them know about these things. Hawke suggested. Hawke took a step back and said.

"Okay, I still know that, if neither country knows what is going on, such a war will be bad for us." Li Wending said. Immediately, he gave the order to transport such a batch of secret weapons to the peninsula.

Bangladesh. The station of the new army of South Korea. Zhang Shi had returned to their headquarters.

"We have defeated the main force of the Goddess Cult, and now it's time for the city-states to help us eradicate the Goddess Cult. If they don't obey the order, we will kill them. We don't mind annexing more countries, or, let them know we're awesome. Zhang Shi said confidently. After solving the main force of the Divine Po Sect, Zhang Shi became much easier. The Cult of the Goddess still exists in other city-states, and the presence of these forces is likely to make a comeback, in order to prevent such a thing from happening. Zhang Shi immediately issued an order to pursue and sent envoys to various countries, asking them to participate in the military campaign to exterminate the Divine Po Cult.

For the state of Mengla, Zhang Shi decided to give a certain punishment, he wanted to disband the army of Mengla, and completely annex Mengla as his own governor's jurisdiction.

"But, sir, I think we should wait a little longer, isn't it too much of a hurry for such a thing. After all, we have just eliminated a large number of the main forces of the Divine Woman Sect at this time, and then we will launch military operations with other countries. Our military power can be too large, and then there is a big gap. Although the combat effectiveness of the armies of various countries is not very strong, but if they are united, I think. We don't have any way about it. This will greatly deplete our military strength and will have a great disadvantage for us, and I hope that the Commander will consider this carefully. A staff officer suggested.

"Well, I know, but what we need right now is morale, we have a strong morale, and those city-states have very weak military power, and we should continue to keep us strong in this situation." Zhang Shi said. Then he vetoed the opinion of the staff officer. The staff officers were helpless about it.

Qi State, Laizhou Shipyard, this is a military shipyard, Qi State has done a piece with the Koreans, they have ordered more than 50 warships of all kinds from Qingcheng, these warships will be the first batch of Qi Navy Naval Force of the warship military force, at the same time, they also carry out technical cooperation with South Korea, especially shipbuilding cooperation, Qi State's shipbuilding technology will advance rapidly.

"These are the first ships to sail from Qingcheng, there are only five, they are not equipped with weapons at the beginning, but we have mobilized a group of artillery from all over the country here, and they will greatly help us become the first naval military force." Said the director of the shipyard. They are modifying their ships, installing a large number of guns, and all kinds of weapons, so that they can become real warships.

"Well, you must speed up, our navy needs a large number of warships, and the faster you are, the better it will be for us." Tian Heng looked at the warship and said.

"Yes, General, we'll speed things up." The director said. The addition of weapons to their shipyard was stressful, but it was also an opportunity to learn, after all, there were many places they had to learn.

"I have an idea, do you think this is okay?" Tian Heng said. Seeing that there were only five warships, Tian Heng felt that it was still few, and he felt that he should think of a good way to solve such a problem.

"I think that we can build some from which civilian shipyards, or buy some civilian ships, which ships, can be temporarily refitted, after all, they are not much different, we can use them to expand the number of our warships, such warships can meet our needs. I think it's doable. Tian Heng said.

"This. General, this, civilian ships and military ships, there is a big difference, for example, there is a big difference in these speeds, as well as the thickness of the deck, and the solidity of the hull, civilian ships, after all, are only used to transport goods, they are not used to fight. The director said worriedly.

"We are just used to save emergencies, and we can also modify it, for example, the thickness of this deck, we can add iron armor, it really doesn't work, we can use a larger iron frame to fix it, things should be more flexible, after all, we still have a lot of warship needs, the Qi Navy is still waiting for ships, if there are no ships, the navy is meaningless." Tian Heng said. For the construction of the navy, Tian Heng is very anxious, his main purpose is only one, that is, rapid development, and then solve all the naval problems of Qi State, only by solving this problem can all the problems be completely solved.
