Hearing that Ning Yuan was going to bring all the auxiliary orcs in the enemy's rear to Vietnam County, Bai Ze suddenly made a mistake.

The most difficult part of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau is to walk, and the rugged terrain is very unfriendly to those who walk on two legs.

Under normal circumstances, people living there do not easily leave the place where they live.

It is already very difficult to travel on a small scale of a few dozen people, let alone a large-scale long-distance migration of tens of thousands of people.

Ning Yuan's question directly stumped Bai Ze, and after picking up the teacup on the table and drinking it all, Bai Ze directly ordered someone to bring up the map of the Yunnan region, and then looked at it carefully.

After about half an hour, Bai Ze suddenly raised his head and said to Ning Yuan, who was also looking at the map: "Your Majesty, if you insist on bringing those surrendered orcs to Vietnam County, then there are three options to choose from.

In the first plan, you need to lead the army to capture Jiangcheng at the southern tip of Yunnan, and then let those orcs who have taken refuge in us move closer to the Li Xianjiang River to the east of Jiangcheng.

Along the Li Xian River, you will enter the Vietnamese county when you enter the Tuojiang River.

In the second option, you need to lead your army to conquer the northern part of Laos, and directly open the road from Vietnam County to Mongla, and then those orcs who have taken refuge in us can enter the northern part of Laos from Mongla, and finally enter Vietnam County.

In the third option, you need to lead a small Condor navy up the Red River (Yuanjiang) into Yunnan, and then conquer the enemy cities south of Ailao Mountain.

The smallest magical energy transport ship of our Condor Navy is just right for sailing on the Red River, and as long as the orcs who have taken refuge in us can reach the west bank of the Yuan River, we will be able to use the magical energy transport ship to transport them to the rich Red River Plain. ”

Hearing the three plans proposed by Bai Ze, Ning Yuan immediately frowned, he looked at Bai Ze and asked, "Aze, it seems that the three plans you proposed are not so easy to do." ”

Bai Ze nodded and said, "That's right, although these three plans seem simple, they are really difficult to implement, and we need to invest a lot of manpower and material resources.

The difficulty of the first plan lies in the water system of the Lixian River, Tuojiang River, and Heishui River.

Although these are three different names for the same big river, they also represent three different sections of the river.

Originally, with the volume and depth of this water system, our small magic energy transport ships could sail in this large river.

However, due to the topography, there are several waterfalls with relatively large drops on this river, so our magic energy transport ships cannot sail into Yunnan through this water system.

If we wanted to use water transportation in a river where there were no waterfalls, we would have to build a large number of boats or rafts along the coast, and then let the orcs go down the river into Vietnam.

This option seems to be the closest option, but we have to make a lot of rafts and boats on site, and because the river is very fast, it is very unsafe to take a raft or a boat, so I personally recommend that it is better not to choose this option.

The second option is one that I personally like, because it is the fastest to implement.

The entire southern part of the Xishuangbanna region is bordered by Laos and Myanmar.

As long as we occupy the northern region of Laos, we can not only open the road between Laizhou and Mengla, but also allow the orcs in the Xishuangbanna region to directly enter the northern region of Laos through the border.

After we occupy the northern part of Laos, our army can enter the Xishuangbanna area from any place at any time, attacking and retreating.

At that time, the entire Xishuangbanna region will be enveloped by the front of our army, and the logistics production base will directly become the front line, and the enemy will not only lose an important grain production area, but will also be flanked by us in front and rear, and it will be difficult to take care of the beginning and the end.

Of course, this plan also has one of the biggest drawbacks, that is, Laos as a country.

Laos once formed a Southeast Asian coalition with several nearby Southeast Asian countries and invaded our Vietnamese county.

Although they eventually withdrew under our pressure, they have always regarded us as their greatest enemy.

Laos is a small country, and we can destroy them at any time if we want to.

However, Thailand, Burma, and Cambodia, which are adjacent to Laos, may not allow us to destroy Laos easily.

If we were to invade Laos at this juncture, it would probably attract a coalition of the other three countries.

While we only want the northern part of Laos, several other countries probably don't, so if we choose the second option, we are likely to attract new enemies and trigger a larger war.

If it is only a small-scale war, it will not have much impact on us, and I am afraid that a bigger war will break out under the instigation of people with good intentions.

So if we can't control the scale of the war, then this second option, no matter how good it is, can't be chosen.

As for the third option, it is the most troublesome to implement, and it also requires us to open up a new battlefield.

First of all, we must control the waters of the Yuanjiang River throughout Yunnan and eliminate all unstable factors that might threaten our warships.

Although the enemy did not have much water power, the entire upper reaches of the Yuan River were under their control.

If they were to put a large number of trees into the Yuanjiang River, the trees would seriously threaten the safety of our ships as they went down the river.

Although the enemy may not be able to think of such a solution, we have to guard against it.

Secondly, we must capture all the enemy cities south of Ailao Mountain, and then go west until we enter Xishuangbanna.

Your Majesty, the armies that protect the Monkey Legion are fine if they are engaged in encounters in the wilderness, but if they are to conquer cities, their numbers are a little too small.

If we want to capture all the enemy cities west of the Yuan River, we need to send at least 50,000 Silver Pegasus Knights and Ape Legions, because for every area we capture, we must leave enough troops to garrison.

Thirdly, if we were to take the defensive in the north and then open a new theater of operations in the south, we would probably draw the enemy's attention to the south.

If a large number of enemies suddenly move south, then our plan for a large population migration will probably be stillborn, because it is impossible for us to engage in a large-scale jungle battle with the enemy in the southern part of Yunnan.

However, as long as we control the waters of the Yuanjiang River, it will not be so easy for the enemy to go south.

With the two natural barriers of Ailao Mountain and Wuliang Mountain, it is difficult for the enemy to send a large-scale army on foot expedition.

The only force that can be quickly supported by the enemy is the air force, and if we put enough pressure on them, they will have to watch us do whatever they want to the south.

Finally, all three options have a common difficulty, and that is the road.

Most of the mountains in Yunnan run north-south, but our march route is from east to west.

In other words, we have to climb the north-south mountains along the way to finally reach the Xishuangbanna area. ”
