605 The prototype of the southeast is emerging
The prototype of 605 southeast appeared
Poof!
A sip of steaming milk tea turned into a rain all over the sky, so frightened that Du Dazhuang hurriedly avoided several steps to resolve Emperor Li's killing move, and the beautiful maid bit her red lip and took the teacup to replace it. β»β»β»β»β» I β» I β» β»
"Forget it." Li Mo waved his hand: "This thing is too strong, I don't want to drink it, let's make a pot of green tea for everyone." β
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The maid walked out of the Butong Book House with her front feet, and Li Mo rushed to Chen Ping and Tang Shaoyi regardless of the image of the emperor, snatched the telegram and rolled her eyes after reading it, and after staying for a long time, she threw the telegram to Li Enfu, patted her forehead and smiled bitterly.
"84,240 bottom row extended-range bombs!"
"The Navy and the Marine Corps are really saving."
Emperor Li now knows that it is bitter, but it is ridiculous that when he was studying the fire support ship before, he was still thinking about whether to make a Katyusha at sea, but now that he thinks about it, things like Katyusha and automatic rifles, even if they are taken out, I am afraid that before the battle is over, he will be tossed by logistics and lie down first.
More than 80,000 shells, how much does it cost!
While Li Mo lamented, the three people present also twitched the corners of their eyes, throwing out ten times the total amount of ammunition a day for the air force in two hours, and the navy was really willing to do so, even if they went to defend Gapo, this battle would not be able to be fought, and their confidence would be destroyed by the overwhelming shells and bombs.
"The front-line command has set a landing at Silang Gang Port early tomorrow morning, and the first to enter Gapo are the 5th and 11th Infantry Divisions."
After Chen Ping finished talking about the landing plan, Tang Shaoyi smiled bitterly and said: "It's okay to land early, such wanton bombardment, no matter how strong the nerves of the British are, they will collapse, and if they really build a scrap slope, I don't know how much it will cost to rebuild." β
Although the navy is suspected of being wasteful, everyone is only complaining a few words, compared with the lives of soldiers, it is still possible to bear a few more shells for the time being, but it is time to clarify the overall plan of the southeast peninsula after Gapo takes it.
"Yuanshou, what are you going to do?" Although everyone had discussed and formulated plans before, they had not yet been put into action at that time, and now that Canada has basically stabilized, and the Malayan Peninsula is about to start again, Tang Shaoyi also hopes to hear the opinions of the military again.
"We are sure that according to the previous agreement between us and Siam, after Siam sends 20,000 troops to attack the Malay Peninsula from the north, it will automatically receive the four states of Perlis, Kedah, Kelantan and Tenggaru that were cut off by the British, and as a reward, half of Perak will also be handed over to them for jurisdiction."
Chen Ping picked up the pen and drew a horizontal line along the map between Terengganu and Ipoh, and after seeing the northern range of the horizontal line, Li Enfu smiled: "Good guy, they are half of the Malay Peninsula smaller, and the King of Siam is going to die of happiness this time." β
After smiling, Chen Ping drew a circle along the south of the Strait of Johor: "This is the scope of Gapo Province that we have set, including Kapo Island, Pulau Ubin, Deguang Island, Bintan Island, Linga Islands and the Riau Islands in the middle, plus the Natuna Islands in the northeast, that is to say, the exit of the Strait of Malacca must be controlled by us and become a permanent and inalienable territory of our country!" β
"Natuna?" Tang Shaoyi was puzzled: "Your Majesty, Natuna is close to Pontianak, why ......?" β
"Natuna is the only way for Malacca to enter and exit the South China Sea, and Gapo Island lacks strategic depth after all, so it would be much better if Natuna had support. β»β»β»β»β»I'm going to have a net of *β» (5) * (1) * Ξ * ΞΞΞ€ * β»," Chen Ping explained.
"Oh."
While Tang Shaoyi and Li Enfu nodded secretly, they also understood that this time Li Mo was determined that he would not choose to continue to expand and annex land in the southeast, so the latter immediately asked: "Then what are you going to do with the rest of the southern part of the Malay Peninsula and Sarawak, Sabah?" β
"I agree with the emperor's opinion, after the establishment of Gapo Province, as long as the immigrants go over, plus Borneo, the security of the Strait of Malacca can already be ensured, so there is no need to continue to be attached to the southeast land, and our image as a responsible major country must be well maintained." Chen Ping pulled the corners of his eyes, took Gapo, and was extremely excited after getting the coveted control of the Strait of Malacca, so he deliberately quipped and asked: "Mr. Li, are you preparing to do business and invest recently?" Why don't I ask them to leave you a piece of land? β
Enfu nodded matter-of-factly: "I won't pick either, you just find a small island in the middle of the Strait of Malacca, and I will go fishing with the emperor next time." β
"Well, this is a good idea, it's called Fishing Nanlong alone!"
"Haha......."
Amid the laughter, Chen Pingzhong picked up the pen: "The Sultan of Brunei, the family of Muhammad Jariru Alan II arrived in Pontianak after the war, and now they are under our protection, and I have sent someone to hand over the agreement I made before to him."
According to yesterday's telegram, he has promised that as long as Sarawak and Sabah return to the Kingdom of Brunei, he is willing to jointly develop all the oil and mineral resources in his territory with us in proportion to the proportion, and he is willing to grant diplomatic immunity and visa-free treatment to our citizens, and he has also promised that China will guarantee the security of the future Kingdom of Brunei, and has agreed to the request for a garrison. β
"Hehe, it's being sent to Brunei after the fight, and you're not afraid of dissatisfaction in the army."
"Soldiers should take obedience to orders as their duty, and I also feel that a rich and colorful Asia can show our strength and dominance, and Asian affairs and conflicts between nations cannot disappear once and for all, not only now, but also in the future, we should ensure the balance of Asia, which is the way to long-term peace and stability."
"Well said!" Tang Shaoyi clapped his hands and sighed: "The country's territory is too large, and there are many ethnic groups, which will inevitably lead to instability, so no matter how much land Siberia occupies, no matter how wide the territory is, there will be no trouble in the future, but there are too many ethnic groups in the Nanyang area, if we continue to encroach upon, it will make all countries regard us as a flood beast, which is more than worth the loss." β
"In addition to these, the emergence of some small countries can also ease the overall tension and national pressure in Asia, because after we drive out all the foreigners, the national ** idea will rise, so if we occupy it all, it will be a big stewed pot, a pot is so hot and mushy, it is better to skim off some miscellaneous ingredients and make the soup thick." Li Enfu also agreed.
The words of several people have completely detached themselves from the prospect of the post-war Asian pattern involving the war, and Li Mo was also relieved when he heard it, and it was his opinion not to continue to expand in Asia, which can now be accepted and agreed by everyone, and finally it was not in vain, and immediately asked: "Yuan Shou, how is Vietnam doing?" β
Chen Ping pointed to Vietnam and said: "The main war is over, and the post-liquidation is currently underway.
As for the territorial issue, it is impossible to return the north of Haiphong to Vietnam, because most of the people there are focused on our country, and we have developed over the years, and many people want to return, so the army has put up welcome slogans in many places along the way, so we decided to make territorial claims at the request of the victorious country and take back all the land north of Haiphong!
At present, the little king of Vietnam is already under our control, considering the needs of diversification in Asia, according to your suggestion, Vietnam will be split from south to north, leaving only the narrow strip by the sea in the east to them, and we are looking for agents in the west part, and two or three countries will be formed, as for the remaining part of Vietnam, it will be temporarily controlled by Phan Pei Zhu and other revolutionary parties on the grounds of military buffer, and the south will continue to be given to the little king of Vietnam, and the views and ideas of these two countries are irreconcilable. As long as we express our unwillingness to see change, we believe that in a few years the Nguyen dynasty in Vietnam can be divided into two countries. β
Looking at the Southeast Peninsula that was divided into pieces by Chen Ping, Li Mo seemed to see the pattern of Southeast Asia in the later generations, and the others were quite similar, only the Vietnamese tyrant was completely gone, after the coastal defense was cut off, Vietnam's strength had declined a lot, and the slender land was almost all within the range of naval guns, plus it was divided into two countries, and the internal contradictions would make them have no intention of caring about it.
As for Laos and Cambodia in later generations, it doesn't matter if they are still called like this, a Southeast Asia will be formed in their own hands, and the king of Siam has said that as long as the four Malay states are recovered, he will also do his best to maintain the current pattern of the southeast peninsula, plus the planned Malay and Brunei kingdoms, as long as they maintain neutrality with China and exert some pressure to express their unwillingness to see any changes, then the pattern of Southeast Asia will be initially formed.
This will be a big deal after its own reincarnation, an Asia has been planned on the paper, and the rest is just a water mill, and then it should be the South Asian subcontinent.
The Andaman Islands and Ceylon are the places that must be fought, only the Andaman Islands can control Ceylon, and then threaten India and Burma, Bangladesh and other places, the only pity at present is that the Indian Grand Fleet fled, so that the task force did not complete the work, and after this time, the Indian Grand Fleet is bound to be more careful, and there is no possibility of a decisive battle in a short time.
All that remains is to take control of the Malay Peninsula first, then to the Andaman Islands, then to Burma, then Ceylon and India, and the war has just begun.
Thinking of this, he immediately asked, "Is Le Fei back?" β
"A telegram has been sent to get them back." Chen Ping said: "Since the Indian Grand Fleet is not in Colombo, it is not appropriate to continue to stay in the Indian Ocean, and the first batch of dragon teeth has been off the assembly line, and the third Xiqin-class heavy aircraft carrier has also started sea trials ten days ago, and the attached aviation wing has completed the modification training on three training carriers a few days ago, and will use the opportunity of sea trials to carry out the integration of early combat effectiveness, and take this opportunity to make the pilots familiar with the aircraft, and supplement and maintain.
In terms of progress, by the end of February, we will have three heavy aircraft carriers, two medium aircraft carriers, four Guam-class battleships, eight Hebei-class battleships, and four Beijing-class fast battleships, and have the ability to continue to deter the Indian Ocean and Australia, while also recapturing the Colon Islands and reopening South American routes.
In addition, I have recalled the remaining five Jinghai-class light cruisers in accordance with your suggestion, and they have all been docked and begun to be converted into light aircraft carriers, and the first one can be delivered by the end of June next year.
The research and development of the Night Owl carrier-based attack aircraft is also progressing smoothly, and Mr. Adel has already made a package ticket to me, and the first batch can be delivered by the end of June next year at the latest, when the aircraft carrier's ground strike intensity can be increased several times, and the fourth and fifth Xiqin-class heavy aircraft carriers and two Guam-class fast battleships are also scheduled to enter service at that time, that is to say, as late as next July, we will have the ability to threaten the West Coast of the United States, cut off the Panama Canal, and at the same time maintain the ability to storm the Indian Ocean or Australia.
If all goes well, the second batch of six Xiqin-class heavy aircraft carriers, four fast battleships, and six large cruisers will be completed one after another in two years, and we can look forward to a decisive battle with the United States at that time! β
"Wait, Yuanshou, are you undercounting, what about Jilin?" Although Chen Ping's outlook made everyone's hearts fly, Li Enfu suddenly found a problem and immediately asked in surprise.
"The Jilin level is the same as the Dalian level heavy patrol, and it has to be downgraded."
The corner of Shaoyi's eyes twitched again, the speed of elimination of the navy is too great, this is obviously using war to accelerate the replacement of equipment!
"It's all money wasters!" Tang Shaoyi glanced at Li Mo, who was silent, and knew in his heart that this must be from the emperor's instructions, but the capabilities of aircraft carriers and fast battleships are obvious to all, and now is not the time to talk more about money, so he has to grit his teeth and ......!
Li Mona didn't know Tang Shaoyi's thoughts, but he had his own plans, using the war to speed up the replacement of equipment is necessary, in addition to ensuring that the troops continue to maintain strong combat effectiveness, but also because the post-war economy will definitely need a long recovery period, it is impossible to have the opportunity to change equipment for the army, but after the war, the army needs to maintain sufficient deterrence for a period of time, so build more equipment in wartime and eliminate the old models in advance, so you can avoid the embarrassment of having technology but no money after the war.
In fact, this is something that everyone knows, but they are reluctant to pick it up, so Li Mo deliberately snorted and asked, "Shaochuan, where are you?" Gapo ....... β
Tang Shaoyi knew what Li Mo meant, and knew that Gapo was only the beginning, and the follow-up plan of the Indian Ocean was the key, so he immediately said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, the first construction corps has all arrived in Pontianak, and we are also ready to use the prisoners of war, as long as the military fully controls Gapo, I guarantee that the funds, materials, and manpower for repair and construction will arrive within ten days, and in two months, I will give the army a large base in Gapo before leaving the Indian Ocean!" β
At the same time, with the guarantee of Yiwen and Wu's right-hand man, Li Mo was completely relieved, and just as he was about to continue talking, Duan Fei rushed in suddenly, and almost knocked over the maid who walked in with tea.
"Let's fight!"
"Your Majesty, I have just received news that the allied forces of Britain and France will set out from Forbert, Auxerre and Orleans in three arrows early this morning to attack the German defense line on the periphery of Saint-Miel and Paris Versailles."
After hearing the news, Chen Ping walked to the map, looked at the location of Paris and Saint-Miel and asked urgently: "How many troops?" β
"It's not clear, but the deputy chief of the General Staff said that at least 150 divisions!"
"Two million people!" After roughly estimating the number of a division of the Entente team, even the calm Li Enfu exclaimed: "God, this is going to be desperate!" β
Li Mo was also nervous, the previous intelligence said that the Entente might be launched in January, but he didn't expect it to be ahead of schedule, and he took out so many troops at one time, so he quickly glanced at Chen Ping and saw his conjecture in his eyes.
"Verdun!"
Chen Ping's finger was fiercely pointed at Verdun, a strategic town fifty kilometers behind Saint-Miel: "Britain and France want to open up Verdun and connect with several isolated fortresses that are surrounded nearby, and then use it as a base to march into Lorraine and force Germany to come back!" β
