Any conspiracy must be based on corresponding strength.

More than 2,000 years ago on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, there was a period when the Three Kingdoms were established, and Shu was less than one-third of the national strength of Wei, but it invaded the Central Plains seven times and fought one after another.

This move, which seemed quite strange to later generations, once touched many people, thinking that the monarch and ministers had an unswerving dream of "recovering the Han Dynasty"!

Not to mention that after the death of Emperor Zhaolie, there are still a few points left of this dream - even if there is, in just 11 years from the death of Emperor Zhaolie to the death of Kong Ming, there were 7 Northern Expeditions to the Central Plains!

With the wisdom of Kong Ming, don't you know the truth of recuperation? With such a waste of money and frequent use of troops, not only will it not be able to revive the Han Dynasty, but I am afraid that even the little national strength it has will be wasted!

However, there must be a rational reason behind all the irrationalities in the world.

At that time, although the Shu Kingdom had natural risks, it was also trapped by natural risks.

If it is attacked by the enemy, it only needs to break one city, and the whole country will be destroyed!

It's useless to defend the city for a thousand days, as long as it is broken one day, the entire basin is completely finished, and there is no place to retreat if you want to!

The art of war is cloudy, and the lonely city cannot be defended.

It's hard to live in a lonely country!

Since ancient times, the period when Shu can hold on to it is not because of its corresponding provinces and endless foreign aid.

Once it becomes a lonely place, it only needs to surround a few passes, consume them day and night, and take it sooner or later, but it is just a water mill.

——And about 100 years after the turtledove was at this time, Chang Gong made a clever plan to retreat to the Shu realm, and the slogan was loud and loud, but from the time he retreated to the basin, he was already strategically invincible!

——If the East captures and annexes the whole country, how can it be defended for a long time with a place surrounded by cliffs?

-- If the eastern captives have not annexed the whole country, how can they counterattack with a land of cliffs on all sides?

- What do you say about fighting to the end, but you are greedy until you can't be greedy anymore! Once the enterprising spirit is lost, all that remains is a hard day!

Yes, there are 7 expeditions to the Central Plains in the 11 years of Zhuge Kongming.

It's not that he can really take the Central Plains, but he is small and weak, and he has to attack instead of defending. It's good that he can take the initiative, although he has lost people, but he can be regarded as taking advantage of the time and place.

……

The weak Shu at that time was just like America at this time!

To the west, Mount Rocky runs from south to north along the coast, not only failing to provide a barrier for America, but instead blocking the moisture from the Pacific Ocean, creating a large desert in the territory out of thin air!

To the east, the Missouri River runs from North Dakota to Choctaw into the Mississippi River, and there are large plains on both sides of the river, and the long banks of the river are completely impossible to defend everywhere!

To the north, Canada swears allegiance to the Queen of Britain, since Britain changed its attitude towards America, Canada took the lead in jumping out and attacking, relying on the control of America's supply line to Loczen Island in the Atlantic.

To the south are Mexico, Texas and France, which have gradually become assimilated since they got together. To tell the truth, the turtledove is not afraid of Canada in the north, but afraid of the brothers in the south.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a Jedi on all sides.

Of course, it goes without saying that the biggest threat comes from the east.

Two years ago, when the United Indian Emirates was first founded, the United States had amassed a heavy army in Iowa, intending to break through the middle and storm White Rock.

However, at that time, the international situation changed drastically, and the eight-nation coalition forces of Britain, France, Russia, Austria, Mexico, Germany, Danger, and Canada gathered in Washington to demand that the newly incumbent President Zachary Taylor give eight faces.

At the same time, the commander of the 3rd Guards met with the turtledove and proposed a plan of "it fights it, I fight mine".

To put it simply, it was to establish a long line of spurt-attacks along the Missouri River to the east of America's borders to attack and defend

, in full bloom.

The long borders are full of holes for the Indians, but what about the United States?

The barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes!

If you attack Mount Braque, I will attack the Great Lakes; I may not be able to beat you on the frontal battlefield, but when it comes to walking A, Hai thinks he won't lose to anyone!

Turtledove had an idea, and gathered a few more people, such as beavers, fifteen dollars, blood wolves, and waterwheels, and refined them on the basis of this plan, and finally finalized that the strategy of "attacking instead of defending" would need to be adhered to for at least the next 10 years.

The Americans would have spent enormous resources and paid a considerable price for this, but the West Bank of the Missouri River would have been spared at least a dozen years of war!

With these more than ten years of respite, we can talk about development and catching up.

Under the mediation of the eight countries, the United States and the then United Indian Emirates signed the "Temporary Armistice", and the two sides took the Missouri River as the boundary and each withdrew its troops.

After the agreement was signed, the U.S. military was still heavily stationed in several important towns along the river at first, but as the Indians fanned the wind and lit fire everywhere, today they crossed the river to grab a chicken, and tomorrow they crossed the river to cut down a tree, and the U.S. army was slowly brought up the rhythm, and the troops gradually dispersed when they could not be pressed in.

In less than a year, a 1,000-kilometer standoff was formed along the Missouri River.

On such a long front, the defensive lines of both sides have become a sieve, and no matter how many troops are sprinkled in, it does not matter.

[In view of the general environment,

……

In the beginning, this plan was called the "Eastern Front Defense Plan".

Over the past two years, it has played a huge role, literally sparing the entire west of the Missouri River. In this context, factories have sprung up one after another, railways have spread out along the lines, and schools are full of books......

When the Planning Committee took over the project not long ago and renamed it the "Queen of Thorns Project", after some combing, it was discovered that the whole project had evolved into a strange monster.

According to Soyer's message from Washington, at least 10 American political families have intervened in this line of defense, 200 companies have accounts with it, and three-quarters of the members of the Senate are wiping their butts for it...... Even America's inner instinct had to be coerced into participating in this kind of thing, holding someone else's handle in his hand, and at the same time his own handle being held by others.

And on the American side, the situation is very different. There are a lot of companies that have been established by the Americans, and their only business is to do business with this line of defense. Turtledove was surprised to find that once this line of defense was dismantled, at least tens of thousands of Americans would lose their livelihoods, and they would really become "food and clothing for millions of workers"!

This line of defense is like a leech with two mouthparts, sucking blood on the left and right.

Unfortunately, while the Americans had rough skin and thick flesh and long blood, the Americans were about to be sucked dry. It was supposed to be a plan to bleed the United States, but now, I can't hold it anymore.

When the true face of S002 was peeled off in front of the turtledove layer by layer, even the turtledove felt that he was about to become the king of the dead country!
