Chapter 1302: Jack's Response

In the camp tent, Han Xin assigned tasks to the three major armies, which seemed to be all concentrated in the Colombian region, and did not mention the Brasilia dynasty, another target, which was puzzling.

In the face of the generals' questions, Han Xin did not answer them, and only let the ministries act according to the plan.

…………

On 16 May, with Han Xin's order, the American theater of operations poured out, and the vast army crossed the fulcrum city, crossed the northern border of Egua County, and brazenly entered the Colombian region.

Behind the army, there was a long line of grain transports.

This grain and grass were sent by the Indian Empire to offset the payment for arms. In order to transport grain and grass to the front line, Egua County guarded Zhou Haichen and mobilized almost all the young and middle-aged people in the county.

Dawson Dynasty, Liberty City.

The news of Bactria attacking Colombia was transmitted back to the capital as soon as possible.

Jack got the reward, his expression was solemn, and he muttered to himself: "The cunning Oriental, it is really a good calculation to make a move at this time." ”

At this time, Jack didn't realize that the entire war in the Americas had the shadow of Great Xia behind it.

Ouyang Shuo has been laying out for so long, just to hit with one blow, take the Panama Canal, choke the neck of the Dawson Dynasty, and prepare in advance for the next big move.

"How many troops can the kingdom send to support Colombia?" Jack asked, and sitting across from him was Franklin, the prime minister of the Dawson dynasty.

The Panama Canal was too important for the Dawson dynasty to garrison nearly one-fifth of its forces in a single state.

Therefore, Jack subconsciously wanted to keep Colombia and keep the Panama Canal.

When Franklin heard this, he replied, "I can only send an army of 100,000 at most." ”

"So little?" Jack was surprised.

"In the last month, the defense of the Maple Leaf Dynasty in the north has been very stubborn, and the number of troops has increased instead of decreasing. I suspect that this is due to the recent acquisition of a batch of firearms. ”

Franklin was helpless, "The same is true of the Maya dynasty in the south, and the harassment of the southern side of the kingdom has been very ferocious lately. More than half of the kingdom's army was sent to these two battlefields. ”

Jack's face was ugly, "Find out, where did they buy their firearms?" ”

"If nothing else, it should be Great Xia, and only Great Xia has the strength to sell such a large number of firearms at one time." Franklin was sure.

"Great Xia, it's Great Xia again!"

As Jack chewed, he already had a bad premonition in his heart.

"We are fighting for life and death on the front line, but Daxia has made a lot of war money, what a good calculation." Jack faintly captured the ghost hidden behind the curtain in Great Xia, and his mood became even more depressed.

History has come to a big reversal.

"It seems that we have to provoke the Night Empire and let it find more trouble with Great Xia, otherwise, the territory of Great Xia will become a pure land, which is really too comfortable." Jack's gaze was grim.

Franklin said, "In my opinion, the Night Empire is a group of bugs hiding in the dark, and it will be difficult for them to confront Great Xia head-on. In the battle of Hawaii, Great Xia had already scared them. ”

"If you don't give it a try, how do you know it won't work, it's better than doing nothing."

Jack has confidence in the Night Empire, he believes that Keisuke Honda and others will not easily forget the hatred of destroying the country, and one day, they will strike a fatal blow to Great Xia.

"Then try it!" Franklin didn't insist any longer, and instead said, "What should the Colombian side do, do you want to send reinforcements?" According to the intelligence from the front line, this time, Great Xia sent a full 750,000 troops, which was inevitable. ”

Beyond the words, Franklin was not in favor of increasing troops.

If you want to fight against the Great Xia army, the Dawson Dynasty must send at least 500,000 additional troops, which is impossible to do.

Jack didn't want to give up easily, the strategic position of the Panama Canal was too important, "Can you let the troops that invaded the Indian Empire withdraw, and then let the Brasilia Dynasty send a reinforcement force?" ”

"It's okay to withdraw our army, and let the Brasilia dynasty send troops, I'm afraid it's difficult."

"The lips are dead and the teeth are cold. Once Bactria conquered the Colombian region, the next target of attack must be the Brasilia dynasty. Otherwise, why did Bactria station so many troops in South America? Jack saw it more thoroughly than Franklin, "As long as you explain the interests and disadvantages to the other party, you are not afraid that they will not send reinforcements." ”

Franklin nodded, acknowledging Jack's judgment, and then analyzed the difficulties in execution: "At present, the South American battlefield is intertwined, and it may be difficult for the army to quickly withdraw from the front line. ”

"Then let the Brasilia army be in charge of the queen, we are fighting for them."

"In that case, the resentment of the Brasilia Dynasty is not ordinary, after all, they are still counting on this war to defeat the Indian Empire in one fell swoop." Franklin was delicate.

The Brasilia Dynasty was not a puppet of anyone, and they were willing to form an alliance with the Dawson Dynasty, which in essence also had a realistic desire to fight against the Indian Empire.

Therefore, this time on the Eastern Front, 400,000 troops were put into battle at one time.

You must know that until the war has been fought, the entire Brasilia Dynasty's army is only more than 800,000, which is equivalent to nearly half of the dynasty's army invested in this battle, which is a great courage and determination.

If the troops are withdrawn at this time, it will undoubtedly fall short.

Thinking about it a little further, without the threat of the Eastern Front, it is probably only a matter of time before the Indian Empire solves the Argentine region, and when that time comes, what will the Brasilia dynasty use against the Indian Empire?

With Great Xia's strong involvement in the South American battlefield, can the Dawson dynasty still be a reliable backer in the eyes of the Brasilia dynasty?

That's when everything will change.

In such a situation, Jack's demand that the Brasilia dynasty not only withdraw its troops from the Indian Empire, but also send a large army to reinforce Colombia was a bit excessive.

If this is done, the alliance between the two sides will probably come to an end.

Jack was very decisive, "Let's get through the current difficulties first, and then talk about it, as for the future, that's for later." In Jack's eyes, the so-called allies are just chess pieces.

When it's time to give up, there must be no hesitation.

When Franklin heard this, he sighed in his heart, and according to his judgment, the kingdom should maintain good relations with the Brasilian dynasty rather than die to protect the Panama Canal.

It would be a foolish choice to abandon the Brasilia dynasty.

After all, it was only the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, and the Panama Canal was far less important to the Dawson dynasty than it was to later generations.

Of course, Jack has Jack's insistence, and he focuses on the future layout of the kingdom, and he can't be wrong.

"One more point," Franklin felt, he needed to be reminded of the need to be in place, "so that the withdrawal of troops from the Eastern Front at this time may not be able to keep the Argentine region, how can we explain to the Spanish dynasty?" ”

This time, Jack was finally stunned.
