Chapter 3 Sweeping Liuhe Chapter 1 Jin Ge's First Move Section 21 Sword Pointing 2

Hearing Melonz say this, the middle-aged gentleman was a little undecided, and it was naturally a happy thing to be able to stuff the appetite of the Tang people at the expense of the interests of the Luzon people, but Fermi also knew that the appetite of the Tang people was not so easy to fill, and Li Wufeng's ambition was well known, and it was difficult to say whether he would stop there, but the situation was not up to anyone, and the posture that the Tang army was now putting up in Rosse Province was to open up the passage to the Baltic Sea, and Pauling did not seem to be lying at this point. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 Of course, they can launch an attack on the Kerman province to the west, or they can advance southwest along the Volga River to the Xize province, depending on the intentions of the commander of the Don Army.
But since there is this hope, in any case, you can also work hard in this direction, Fermi never thought that the Hansen League and the Luzon people could form a solid alliance, as an old politician who has been rolling in the diplomatic circles for decades, Fermi knows that those alliances are not much more effective than waste paper, and if they can be used for their own use, they will be saved, and if they can't, they will be abolished, and the Hansen League and Luzon have no interests in the first place, and they have come together purely because of the interests of the Indo-German issue, but now in the face of the huge pressure of the Tang Army, no one wants to meet the first shot of the Tang Army head-on, although the situation is forced to unite, but both the army and the political axe are skeptical of this alliance, and no one is willing to take the initiative to act as the target of the Tang army's attack, but is more willing to wait until the other party and the Tang army have a brutal battle to play the role of deciding the surname, in this case it is indeed difficult to share the enemy.
"Melonz, do you think we can convince the Luzon to give up the province of Niezon in exchange for the Tang to stop?" asked Fermi after pondering for a long time.
"I'm afraid not, the province of Xize is to the Luzon people what the province of Kerman is to our alliance, not to mention that after gaining the province of Xizer, will the Tang people stop? From the geographical point of view, the two provinces of Xize and Lebo are connected together, and it is entirely possible that they will go south along the Volga River into the province of Lepo, then the Luzon people may collapse if they get everything in South India, so the Luzon people will definitely not tolerate this kind of thing. Shaking his head, Melonz was skeptical of this possible surname. He had served in the military service of the Union for quite a long time, and he was still slightly accomplished in military affairs, and he was very familiar with the situation on the eastern coast of the Baltic Sea.
The coastline of the Indian Kingdom on the edge of the Baltic Sea is very straight, there are not too many good harbors, and there are not many islands along the coast, the original sovereignty has always belonged to several islands of the Indian Kingdom but in essence are controlled by pirates rampant on the eastern shore of the Baltic Sea, the Indians because they have almost no naval power, so they only nominally retain sovereignty over those islands, but in fact they have never exercised sovereignty. Many of the coastal areas are semi-desert areas, and their economic value is not very large, and the Indicians attach great importance to the land tradition and the Baltic piracy is rampant, so in fact the Indo-German tribes do not attach much importance to this area.
The Indian kingdom nominally had four provinces bordering the Baltic Sea, the provinces of Lepo and Cizer in the southern Indo-Deian region controlled by the Tiks, and the provinces of Kerman and Fahan in the western Indo-Dean region originally controlled by the Yakuans.
Due to the rampant piracy in the Baltic Sea, a considerable part of the spices exported from the Duchy of Merry to the Hansen allies were transited through the Indean land route, but due to the high cost of land transportation, and the social security situation in this area was also poor, the bandits and horse thieves in the desert Gobi were not inferior to their counterparts at sea, and they were also very arrogant。 This kind of thing has become more and more intense in recent years, and the source of spices has also become extremely unstable, resulting in a sharp rise in the price of spices in the Hansen League, which has seriously damaged the interests of the commercial aristocracy of the countries in the alliance.
Now that the Luzon people control the provinces of Leibo and Xizer in the south, and they control the two provinces of Kerman and Fahan, the Tang people can only choose one of these four provinces if they want to get an outlet to the Baltic Sea. Although the two of them are senior officials of the Alliance's Foreign Affairs Agency, this matter is not something that the Foreign Affairs Agency can decide, this needs to be coordinated with the military, although the military does not believe that the alliance with the Luzon people can be maintained for a long time, but they believe that at least for now the alliance and the Luzon people are tied to a rope, and the two sides should be in the same boat, as for the future, it needs to wait until the current big trouble of the Tang people is solved.
But the problem ahead of us is that the Tang people are very likely to throw off the Luzon and launch an all-out attack to the west, after all, the Luzon people have a heavy army stationed in South India, not to mention that they still have more than 150,000 reserves stationed in the Comini area in the rear, which can be reinforced at any time, and the Tang army will not fail to see this, while in the West Indo-German region, the Allied army has only 200,000 men, and the Nia rebellion in several provinces has intensified, will the Tang army ignore the differences between the two regions? No, it is conceivable that they will definitely not!
Fermi had discussed this issue with General Suvorov, the commander of the Allies' garrison in West India, and Suvorov admitted that he would not be able to quell the Neite rebellion in the provinces for a short time, even if the League added another 100,000 troops to him. The backlash of the religious forces was to be expected, and the success of the Holy Spirit in the upper echelons of the West Indoan region also exposed their strategic weakness in the middle and lower classes, where they had little support and were too difficult to accomplish by relying solely on the military might of the Alliance. The Holy Spirit Sect's top brass also seems to be aware of this, and they are gradually changing their strategies, but they have not seen obvious results in a short period of time, this is a difficult and complex long-term work, and it will take time to gradually fill in the lack of faith in the minds of the people, but it seems that the Tang people are not willing to give their side too much time.
Under these circumstances, the possibility of the Tang army and the Luzon secretly making peace so that they could launch an all-out attack on the Allies' controlled territory greatly increased, as evidenced by the fact that the Tang army was massing heavy forces on the border of the Mish-controlled province of Pamé to threaten the province of Deshin, which was under their control. Fermi thinks that it is necessary for him to immediately return to Blue Castle to discuss with Suvorov the possible impact of the change in the situation, since the Tang people have revealed such a message, then they can also give a positive response under the condition of ensuring that their own interests will not be harmed, and sometimes it is impossible to say that the interests of the allies are sacrificed for their own interests, not to mention that it is still unknown whether this "ally" is admitted by the top leaders of both sides, at most it can be called an ally with a temporary surname.
"Now the strength of the Luzon in the South Indian region is similar to our strength in the West Indian area, but the Luzon people have quite sufficient reserves in the Comini area to the south, if they can lead the Tang army to seize the two provinces of Xize and Leibo, as you said, the Luzon people will not give up and will definitely fight with all their might, I think it will be difficult to distinguish the victory or defeat between the Tang army and the Luzon in a short time, then we can win a precious respite, I don't think the military will have much objection to this plan, after all, they also need time to quell the turmoil of the Nia in several provinces。 ”
Fermi finally made up his mind that he needed to return to Blue Castle to negotiate with Suvorov immediately, and this plan had to be supported by the military, and there was still a lot of work to be done on their side, which was left to Melonz to be in charge.
"Lord Fermi, have you decided?" Although Melonz has always supported this idea, but when the matter comes, he is a little worried, this matter is not without risk, the Tang army will definitely be very smooth in the early stage with its own cooperation, but the strength of the Luzon people in this area is more than the alliance, once the Tang army thinks that the Luzon people are not easy to gnaw on this bone, and turn to attack the alliance, without the response of the Luzon, the alliance army will fight alone, unless it is supported by the rear, I am afraid that it will be burned.
Fermi was a little displeased, the original intention of this plan was proposed by the other party, he just substantiated it, but now he hesitated, no wonder this guy did not mix well in the military affairs department and the foreign affairs department, how can this indecisive surname be in charge?
"Melonds, is there anything else you have to say?"
"Oh, no, no, I just hope that you and General Suvorov will have a good idea of this plan, the Tang people are very cunning, our plan must be very thorough, we have to let the military know the negative effects of this plan, otherwise if the situation changes, they will put all the blame on us. Mellonz heard the other party's dissatisfaction, he could only tactfully remind the other party that he needed to consider the negative side, only in this way might he be able to make the other party not have some other unnecessary misunderstandings about himself, Mellonz didn't want to cause the other party to hesitate on this issue, and he also wanted to mess with the alliance's foreign affairs office.
