Chapter 1377 - Won't Be Defeated, Right?
Zhu Jishi got up from the soft mahogany bed and stretched out, very satisfied. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info look around, Su Xiaomei Su Puyaka was wrapped in a quilt, her hair was scattered and lying on the side, and there were still a little tears on her face.
This girl is really good, tender and delicious, very different from Japanese women like Kusumoto Takako, who will never be made to cry by his stormy attack, these women from samurai families are extremely enduring, and some of them have been specially trained, so they can do whatever they want. Such a woman is certainly very energetic, but she lacks a little bit of the youthfulness of her youngest daughter's family, and this Su Puyaka doesn't know anything or anything, she is really young to the extreme.
Zhu Jishi, who has already incarnated as the old pervert emperor, is in a very good mood, and now everything is easy. The crown prince is also filial and does things properly, not only taking care of the government in an orderly manner, but also has some military talents, which seems to be enough to take on a big responsibility. As for the other princes and princesses, many of them have already shown their talents, and the Ming Dynasty is really becoming more and more prosperous.
It seems that there is no need to worry about the affairs of the world war. The United States is playing very well, Kansas City has been surrounded into an iron barrel, and the Confederate States of America are in a mess, and there is a sense that they are about to break up when a catastrophe is imminent--Mathilde is really hard enough, and he personally went to Louisiana and Texas to lobby, and tried every means to disturb Henry. Bush's game has a bit of a "-stirring stick in the Americas."
Although there is some bad news in Europe; One; Root; Read; Novel yb+du But that's the trouble of the Russians, it's a big deal to support more weapons and guns, Russia is a fighting nation, where is it so easy to be defeated? And the Germans, Austrians, and Swedders who participated in the war did not look like they would fight Petersburg and Moscow with their mortal strength. They all have to be careful to watch out for the "existence fleet" of France. Who knows when the French will jump out for the crown of white world supremacy? Even Mathilde didn't have that idea. And Napoleon IV!
As for the Southern Theater. Now it depends on Zhu Guoxiong's means, if he can successfully take Imphal and then disrupt the situation in India itself, he should be able to force the British Eastern Fleet to leave the Strait of Malacca to seek a decisive battle with insufficient troops. Moreover, during this time, the Navy's Nanyang Fleet had already begun mine warfare, and fought several small-scale cruiser encounters, and the "Tianjin" class on the Ming side had superior performance and could take advantage of a lot of advantages. The confidence of the navy has also risen. The command of the South Ocean Fleet is already planning a decisive battle!
Hearing the movement of Zhu Jishi getting up, Nanmoto Takako hurriedly came in from the outside with a few maids, took mouthwash, delivered freshly brewed coffee, and dressed Emperor Zhu with socks and shoes. Several people were busy around Emperor Zhu. The movement was not small, but it did not wake up the little girl, it seems that she was really tired last night.
Zhu Jishi drank a few sips of bitter coffee, lifted his spirits, and asked while rinsing his mouth: "Are the daily briefings from all sides here?" When will the Prince and the Indo-Burmese Front Command leave? Can the date be set? ”
Nanmoto Takako, the personal maid, is still working as a female secretary - she is going to follow Emperor Zhu for the rest of her life, so she can naturally use it with confidence. She is a full-fledged medical graduate of Jesa University and has a sufficient level of education to cope with the work of a secretary. And for the "punishment" given to her by Emperor Zhu. Not only did she have no complaints, but she was clearly enjoying it.
Hearing Zhu Jishi's question, she smiled before speaking, her eyebrows were affectionate, "Your Majesty, the briefings in all aspects have arrived, and I will present them to you at breakfast. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just been informed by phone that the Southwest Front Command will leave for Bangkok this afternoon, and His Highness himself will leave the day after tomorrow. ”
Zhu Jishi nodded slightly, he is really diligent!
"By the way, there is also news that the British have just appointed a new commander of the Indian army, who is an old acquaintance of His Majesty. Admiral Hemming. ”
"Will. Hemming became the commander of the Indian Army? Zhu Jishi frowned, he was really an old acquaintance, not only his old acquaintance, but also an old acquaintance of the Ming Royal Army, most of Shi Dakai's generals of their generation were still his disciples!
"Your Majesty, this Will. Is Hemming powerful? The green voice sounded, and it was Su Puyaka who asked, the little girl had woken up, and she was looking at the Ming Emperor who asked for her body last night with big eyes.
"Su Xuanzhi, you shouldn't ask about foreign affairs." Kusumoto Takako reminded with a smile. There are rules in the Daming Palace, who can ask about some national affairs, and who can only serve the emperor honestly, there are rules. For example, Gao Zi himself, although his status is low, he also serves as a "secretary", so he can naturally participate in some political affairs. But Su Puyaka did not have such power.
Su Puyaka was coquettish: "The concubine body wants to ask, the concubine's hometown is in Assam." ”
Zhu Jishi looked at this little girl who could be his granddaughter with a doting look, "Will. Hemming has some ability, but how many people are there in the Indian army? Less than 700,000, if you can resist the millions of heroes of my Ming Dynasty? ”
Su Meiren exhaled and smiled, "Then the concubine will be relieved." ”
Zhu Jishi smiled slightly, but thought in his heart that Daming has an army of several million, and it also has the ability to expand to more than 10 million. But how many can be put into the Indian battlefield? If it is now Juan as the commander-in-chief of the Southwestern Army, he would not be worried, but the crown prince ...... After all, it's not a general's material.
He thought about it again, but he still felt that it was okay. Will. If Hemming had 700,000 British or American troops in his hands, he would not have allowed the crown prince to be the commander. But eighty percent of Haiming's army is Indian Ah San, a notoriously weak soldier, and the "Chinese" in Assam (actually the Dai people) are also interested in the Ming Dynasty, as well as the help of the Su royal family, I really can't think of any power for Haiming to return to heaven?
……
Fort William, Kolkata, India.
Will. For most of the past 20 years, Hemming has served in the Indian Army and the Indian Viceroyalty, and is familiar with the officers of the Indian Army Command. Therefore, the process of taking over the command of the Indian army was very smooth, and it only took half a day to complete the handover. In the afternoon of the next day, the deployment of the Indian army began to be adjusted.
"Your Excellency, Commander, Garnet of Army Group Imphal. Lieutenant General Wolseley sent an urgent telegram that had just uncovered a conspiracy and evidence that the royal family of the princely states of Assam had defected to China and was preparing to incite an uprising. "The Chief of Staff of the Indian Army, Evelyn. Major General Wood first reported the news from the Imphal side. The Imphal Fortress has long been regarded by the Indian army as the eastern gate of India, and it must not be missed.
"Got it, tell Lieutenant General Wolseley that I need him to lead the Indian First Army, a newly formed mobile corps consisting of six Indian infantry corps with a total strength of more than 250,000!" Will. Hemming Road.
The Indian First Army is not Will. Hemming ordered the formation of his predecessor, James Brown. It was ordered by Admiral Grant before he left India due to illness to serve as a mobile force for the Indian army, ready to reinforce Imphal or Burma.
"Your Excellency, who will take over the Imphal Army?" Evelyn. Major General Wood asked.
"Let Lieutenant General Gordon go." Will. Heming seemed to have a plan, "Also, help me arrange my trip, I'm going to Myanmar to inspect." ”
"Okay." Evelyn. Wood paused, "Your Excellency, are you going to reinforce Burma?" King Min Dong has already called several times for help. Lieutenant General Roberts is also asking for reinforcements. ”
"No, there will be no reinforcements!" Will. "We have to abandon Burma and tell Lieutenant General Roberts to prepare for a retreat." ”
"Abandon Burma? His Excellency the Governor General and the London side ...... "Evelyn. Wood reminded.
"Will agree." Will. Heming waved his hand, "They won't send me millions of troops, so they can't expect me to hold all the territory, if they think anyone can defeat the 70 million squadron with 700,000 people, I'll be happy to go back to the farm in Ireland to retire." ”
Evelyn. Wood nodded expressionlessly, "I see, Your Excellency, do you have any other orders?" ”
"No, that's all for today, but there will be new adjustments when I come back from Myanmar." (To be continued......)
