Chapter 388: The Seven Immortals Islands Meeting (1)
For these masters in the empire, Lao Jiu actually wants to be recruited into the army and serve the empire. However, most of these people are used to freedom, and that kind of restrained life is not what they want at all, so it is better to let them go and let them play freely.
The impact of the weather on the Australian continent is almost negligible. With the completion of the grain harvest, the current Empire has entered the depths of winter, but on the Australian continent, it has just entered the summer, but it is when the weather begins to be hot.
A large amount of cultivated land in the open Qinling Plain is now also full of grain and vegetables. If the war had not spread to the Qinling Plain, the harvest season in a few months would be enough to meet the needs of Australia.
For battles between players, the casualties are basically within a manageable range, and because there are too many constraints, both sides will try to avoid some large-scale wars. Especially in the absence of absolute superiority, almost no side is willing to attack with all its might.
For players, every duel is almost a thousand kills and eight hundred self-losses, unless there is absolute strength to suppress. Of course, even if the strength is strong, sometimes you need to consider the equipment of both sides.
Because the player's use of equipment is not comparable to NPCs at all. Often a low-level player may use his own equipment to counterattack a high-level player, and this kind of thing is often seen in the game.
Originally, Lao Jiu, who also wanted to go to the junction to fight guerrillas, but because of Dumb, he could only continue to soak in the Qinchuan River. Because Dumb's current ascension can only rely on the powerful bloodline power contained in the descendants of these divine beasts.
With Lao Jiu's efforts for several months, Dumb's strength not only recovered to level ninety-five, but also improved by one level, reaching level ninety-six. However, the more it goes, the more difficult it will be to improve Dumb's strength.
With the union of the major empires, the Chinese players on the Australian continent, as well as the players of the Easy Empire, have become the targets of the major empire players. However, the Chinese people, who never admit defeat, will not back down at all and have always stuck to their territory.
Seeing that a relatively quiet year was about to pass, there was an urgent report from the Seven Immortals Islands. The fleets formed by North America, South America, and the European Union actually appeared in the waters of the Seven Immortals Islands at the same time, and their purpose was obvious, the Seven Immortals Islands, which were located in the center of the Endless Sea.
After receiving the news, Lao Jiu took the undead cavalry as soon as possible and passed towards the Seven Immortals Islands. It seems that the defeat of the South American Alliance fleet last time has alerted several major alliances to the fact that the Seven Immortals Islands must be captured before heading south.
Today's Seven Immortals Islands, after many renovations, have become the "Seven Star Fortress" on the endless sea! For this kind of large-scale naval battle, the small islands around the Seven Star Islands can play very little role.
At present, the number of fleets in the Seven Star Islands is only more than 2,000 ships, of which three Atlantis warships are the mainstay. According to the information received by Lao Jiu, the total number of fleets of the three major alliances is close to 10,000, and the number of troops is more than 10 million.
Faced with such a huge number of Imperial Alliance fleets, Lao Jiu directly gave up his plan for a frontal naval battle. Under such a large disparity in strength, the advanced fleet of the Easy Empire is no longer enough to make up for such a gap.
What's more, almost all of the troops dispatched by the major empires this time are the elite of their own empires, and all of them are in their seventies or more, and if the Empire chooses a naval battle, there is almost no hope of victory.
When Lao Jiu arrived at the Seven Immortals Islands, he immediately convened an emergency military meeting. The main content of this meeting was how to defend the Seven Immortals Islands and how to defeat the invading enemy with minimal casualties.
The Seven Immortals Islands were named after the corresponding Big Dipper by Lao Jiu. The largest of these islands is Tianshu Immortal Island, which is located in the northwest of the Seven Immortals Islands, which is also the military stronghold of the Xiaoyao Empire in the Seven Immortals Islands.
When the alliance imperial fleet appeared in the waters of the Seven Immortals Islands, as soon as Lao Jiu received the news, he notified all the persons in charge of the Seven Immortals Islands, and went to the conference room as soon as possible, waiting for the convening of the military meeting. And when Lao Jiu arrived, all the people in charge of the Seven Immortals Islands had been waiting for a long time.
"Salute! "Lao Jiu had just stepped into ......the conference hall, and the quasi-person saluted him neatly.
"Due to the urgency of the situation, Zhao Hao will directly report the current situation!" Lao Jiu gestured to everyone, and then said directly to Zhao Hao in front.
This was not a simple meeting, so there were a lot of participants, including the commanders of the Seven Army Corps and the three major naval divisions, who were in charge of logistics supply and financial allocation.
"Yes!" Zhao Hao saluted, and then said to Lao Jiu, "According to the news sent back by our patrol team, just an hour ago, a large number of fleets were discovered in the northwest, southwest, and due west directions of our Seven Immortal Islands. ”
"The preliminary estimate of the number of fleets on each route is at least three thousand or more, and judging by their course, their destination is obviously the Seven Immortals Islands. According to the information that has just been transmitted from the front, there is obviously a tendency for the three-way fleet to unite. ”
"Now the three-way fleet is all staying, a hundred kilometers west of the Seven Immortals Islands, and there is no tendency to take the initiative to attack for the time being. And the Seven Immortals Islands have also entered a state of first-level readiness, and all the personnel on each small island have been evacuated. ”
"As far as the current situation is concerned, have you ever considered how this war should be fought?" Lao Jiu asked with a frown.
"With our current strength as a sailor, we are completely incapable of fighting the opponent head-on. So, I personally advocate a war of attrition. Zhao Hao said directly, "After all, the enemy is coming from afar, and the follow-up supply is limited, as long as we don't make head-on contact, the enemy will naturally break through after a long time." ”
"Let's talk about the specific battle plan!" Lao Jiu still frowned.
"At present, we have seven continent legions in the Seven Immortals Islands, with a total strength of three and a half million, and they are fully capable of holding the seven main islands." Zhao Hao continued, "And the three legions of our Loose Water Division are wandering in the waters of the Seven Immortals Islands, ready to fight guerrilla warfare at any time. ”
"Our Canglong Naval Division, Jiaolong Naval Division, and Tiger Shark Naval Division each led 500,000 naval divisions and 600 warships to fight guerrilla warfare with the enemy on the periphery. And with our reserves, as well as cargo capacity, each fleet is enough to carry three months' worth of food. ”
"And our main task is to hold back the enemy, so that they cannot be attacked and retreated. It only takes three months, and the enemy army will naturally break itself, and by that time, we will have the absolute initiative! ”
"You also agree with Governor Zhao's strategy? Or is this the result of your discussions? A sneer hung on the corner of Lao Jiu's mouth, and he looked at the generals present and asked.
Seeing the sneer on Lao Jiu's face, there were more than 20 people present, but none of them answered. In fact, the coercion exuded by Lao Jiu's body at this time has made the atmosphere extremely depressed, and anyone can see that Lao Jiu is very dissatisfied with this practice.
At this time, Zhao Hao's forehead had gradually begun to sweat. They were very clear about the current situation facing the Seven Immortals Islands, and this strategic plan was also discussed by him and the other generals, in their opinion, this was already the best way at present.
"Don't blame them, after all, they're not like us, and there are things they can't take into account." At this time, Yu Shengxiang, who rushed to the Seven Immortals Islands with Lao Jiu, spoke.
Among the women, only Yu Shengxiang is the one who knows the most about game warfare, because she has always dreamed of becoming a female general, so she has a lot of involvement in military strategy, which is why she is willing to lead troops.
"Pull up the map, I'll analyze it first, and then you can make a decision!" Yu Shengxiang glanced at the crowd, and then waited until the map of the entire Seven Immortals Islands was presented in front of everyone's eyes before pointing to it and saying.
"At present, almost all of the enemy warships are located west of the Seven Immortals Islands. In addition to the seven large islands in the Seven Immortals Islands, there are more than 100 small islands in the rest of the islands, although these islands are not big, but what if they are connected? ”
"Have you ever thought that if the enemy does not take the initiative to attack the seven main islands, but uses the numerical superiority of their ships to connect the surrounding islands? Then it is likely that it will form an independent artificial land outside of our seven main islands. ”
"In this way, we will be completely isolated by the other side, and the seven small islands will be fought separately, which will also provide each other with a chance to break through. As for the logistical supply, you are completely wrong. ”
"For the enemy's alliance fleet, it is still easy to build a teleportation array. After all, compared to the entire Seven Immortals Islands, the investment in a mere teleportation array was not worth mentioning at all. ”
"So, the small islands around the seven main islands are also very important. Especially those islands of tens of square kilometers cannot be lost. Therefore, in this battle to defend the Seven Immortals Islands, except for the Navy Corps, the rest of the Army Corps must fight a tough battle. ”
"But except for the seven main islands, the rest of the islands have almost no shipping lanes for large ships, and the reefs in them alone are enough to keep the Alliance fleet out, will our worries be unnecessary?" Zhao Hao said stubbornly.
"That's what you don't know, there's a technology called artificial islands. I have carefully studied the islands of the Seven Immortals Islands and the layout of the reefs in each place. Since the South American Alliance suffered a loss last time, this time they still chose the Seven Immortals Islands, which means that they have thought of a way. Yu Shengxiang said with some concern.
"In my estimation, the purpose of the alliance fleet this time may not be to occupy the entire Seven Immortals Islands, but to occupy a maritime military base station belonging to them in the waters of the Seven Immortals Islands, which is the long-term plan!"
