Half an hour later

Richard put down the pen in his hand, pinched his eyebrows a little tiredly, and took a break.

Seeing this, Zheng Yuan, the deputy director of the secretariat who was waiting on the side, hurriedly waved his hand, and when even the palace secretary lifted the boiling hot water kettle to make tea, and then immediately presented it.

Most of the folds on the royal eucalyptus have been approved, and only two or three copies are left, Richard took two sips of the teacup, glanced at Zheng Yuan who was standing on the side, and asked;

"Where did the Imperial Army General Staff Headquarters reorganize the military region?"

Zheng Yuan knew that this was His Majesty's examination for himself, and when he worked by His Majesty's side, he often came into contact with international, domestic and foreign military and political affairs, which greatly enriched his horizons and cultivated an international strategic vision to look at problems.

He bowed and replied;

"Returning to Your Majesty;

Wei Chen privately speculated that His Majesty's reorganization of the army troops with the situation of the large military region should be set up to deal with the long-term enemy of the Tang Kingdom, the beautiful Jianguo, in order to prepare for the decisive battle.

The standing strength of the army of the Tang Kingdom is 67,500, plus the 15,500 expeditionary force that returned to China and reorganized this time, the whole army has a total of 83,000 troops.

The division of the four major military regions, especially the Southern Military Region and the Northern Military Region, is a front-line force to deal with the strategic pattern of Tang and the United States vying for hegemony.

The Central Military Region sits in the rear, mainly in the economically developed coastal areas of California, Nevada, Utah, Iowa, Northern Province, and Oregon, covering 65% of the population and 77% of the economic output of the Tang Kingdom, and will serve as a large rear to support strategic confrontation.

The Overseas Military Region covers the provinces of Hawaii, Panama and Angel Island, a special jurisdiction of the Kingdom, maintaining two vital migration routes in the northern and central Pacific Oceans, and is a continuous source of strength for the Tang Kingdom.

The setting of the four major military regions, especially the two iron fists of the Southern Military Region and the Northern Military Region, is like a twin peaks.

Suppress Texas in the United States and the core industrial area of the five major lakes centered on Chicago, forcing them not to act rashly, so as to occupy the strategic advantage of North America. ”

"Well, it looks like you've got a deep dive into the subject, which is good." Richard picked up his teacup and took a sip.

His Majesty's evaluation made Zheng Yuan happy, and the 36,000 pores on his body were all comfortable, indicating that these words were to the point.

"What do you think of the Kansas Civil War in the United States today?" Coldly, Richard threw another question.

Zheng Yuan did not rush to answer, but muttered the organizational sentence, and replied with a cautious expression;

"Your Majesty;

Weichen secretly thought that the Kansas Civil War belonged to the local contention and evolution of the North and South, and had three characteristics.

First, the North and the South of the United States clearly understand the great harm of the expansion of the civil war, so they deliberately limit the scale of the civil war and try not to spread it to other states.

As soon as such signs appear, they should be curbed immediately.

The GDP of the Kansas region of the United States is less than 1%, the population is less than 1.91%, and the local characteristics of the civil war in the region are obvious, which will not affect the overall pattern of economic development in the United States.

The second is long-term. Due to the huge forces behind the two sides of the Kansas Civil War, it is impossible for anyone to win anyone.

The South lost 1,200 men this month, and was soon replenished with 1,400 volunteers. The North lost 750 men in the next month, and soon it was replenished with 1,000 volunteers.

If this tug-of-war continues, there is no possibility of ending the war in the short term.

The third is low intensity. The Kansas Civil War is now in its third year, and there have been only two battles with more than 1,000 casualties, only more than 10 battles with more than 100 casualties, and hundreds of battles with fewer than 100 casualties.

The civil war is characterized by fragmentation and frequent conflicts, which should be deliberately controlled by people of insight on both sides of the North and the South.

It is not so much a civil war as a military exercise ground.

Now the dispute between the North and the South is divided into two types: the military is fighting in Kansas, and the military is the fierce confrontation on Capitol Hill, and the situation has become worse and worse in the past few years.

The Southern legislators, represented by the Southern slave owners, vigorously pushed for a nationwide discussion on the "legalization of black slaves" in the United States, and this has become the focus of contention between the two sides.

We're stealing;

The contradictions between the two sides on this issue are extremely pertinent, there is no possibility of compromise, and their positions are in the opposite direction, like a festering wound that rots and stinks, and sooner or later it will affect the whole body. ”

"Well, high-level people who are familiar with the situation in North America can basically see this, some people in the United States are clamoring for a war against the Tang Kingdom to divert the focus of domestic contradictions, and some people advocate the division of the North and the South and the establishment of their own countries. What do you think of the extravagant expectation of a unified South by force, especially Mr. Lincoln, the representative of the Kansas Congress, who is an advocate of this argument? ”

"Your Majesty;

Wechen secretly believes that the United States' vain attempt to bring trouble to the east is actually unable to resolve the essential contradictions between the North and the South, and is only a cover-up and temporary delay.

In the face of the impulse of the US military adventure, the Holy Monarch of the Tang Kingdom is in the court, wise and powerful, and has sufficient military strength to deal with it.

Seven years ago, the kingdom had the ability to defeat the enemy and win it in one fell swoop, and today, when it is strong, it has enough confidence to defeat the enemy and truly establish the hegemony of North America.

If you want to truly solve the contradiction between the north and the south of the United States, the most beneficial thing for the Tang Kingdom is the division between the north and the south, and the most unfavorable for the Tang Kingdom is the reunification of the north and the south after the war.

From the perspective of national strategy, no one likes to sleep with a strong man next to him, which will make it difficult to sleep.

If it were two delicate women who gave what they wanted, the situation in North America would be much better. ”

"It's a very vivid metaphor." Richard nodded in agreement.

On the other hand, he also verifies his judgment through the perception of the international and North American situation of today's political elites.

After the rise of the Tang Kingdom in North America, the historical landscape has become very different from the original, and there is no experience to follow when it comes to the United States and Mexico.

The Tang Kingdom has adopted a policy of gradual encroachment on Mexico, Mandarin Zhengyin is popular in Mexico City, more than 60 schools of all sizes have implemented Chinese education, Chinese cuisine has spread all over the streets and alleys of Mexico City, and more than 100,000 Chinese immigrants live in Mexico City, which has exceeded 20% of the city's population, and its influence has penetrated into all aspects.

The command of the Mexican government forces is in the hands of the Chinese, and the current government is dominated by pro-Tang forces, mainly President Flamingo, Army Commander General Dos Santos, and Finance Minister González's family take turns in the office.

The first two were once the commanders of the Mexican servant army, and in the Tang-Mo War, they followed the army of the Tang Kingdom to charge into battle, conquering the city, and their hands were stained with the blood of countless Mexicans, and it was impossible to turn back.

The only way out is to cling to the thighs of the Tang Kingdom, do their duty as a younger brother, and maintain the status quo of the vassal countries at this stage, which is in their own interests.

Finance Minister Gonzalez is the father of the three sisters of Aisha, whose real name is Ronaldric Hubert Santo Domingo Rivera Gonzalez, who can rise all the way and become a powerful figure in the current Mexican government, which is inseparable from the background of the three sisters in the Tang royal court.

The future honor and disgrace of the Gonzalez family are naturally tightly tied to the Tang Kingdom.

According to the plan;

At the end of this year, González will be inaugurated as president of Mexico, while former President Flamingo will be transferred to the post of interior minister, and Army Commander Dos Santos will continue to be in charge of the military.

The local upper class in Mexico City is generally keen to learn Chinese, and has sent their children to Chinese schools, married Chinese wives for their adult children, and actively integrated into Chinese society.

The actions of Mexico's upper class now affect large swaths of the local middle class, a sight that Richard would like to see, removing the way for future annexation of Mexico.

From the perspective of the North American grand strategy

The Tang Kingdom adopted the "Southward and Eastward Pressure Strategy", the so-called "Southward and Eastward Pressure Strategy", which is to infiltrate military, political and cultural influence into the south, deeply bind the current Mexican government, and will achieve quantitative change to qualitative change in ten years, twenty years or even longer.

Richard is not in a hurry to change the status quo, the people under the current Mexican government are already less than 800,000, and many Mexicans who are dissatisfied with the current Mexican government have fled south to the Aztec Republic, and the current government's population continues to bleed.

But on the other hand

The Tang Kingdom is immigrating to Mexico at a rate of 5~60,000 people per year, which is likely to further accelerate, while assimilating the local population, quietly changing the socio-demographic structure of Mexico.

Expected in 5 years

The Chinese population in Mexico will account for more than half of the total population, and in 10 years it will account for more than 7 percent, and in 20 years it will occupy more than 9 percent, which is a change from quantitative to qualitative.

The eastward pressure strategy is mainly aimed at the United States, and the Southern Military Region and the Northern Military Region are the two iron pincers that threaten the deep Great Plains region of the United States, forcing it not to dare to act rashly.

The 3,776-kilometer-long border between Tang and the United States, except for a few mountains and rivers, is mostly an endless plain, and there is no danger to defend at all.

With a total of 18,700 troops, the Southern Military Region defended the eight provinces that originally belonged to Mexico, mainly facing the border areas of the United States, Texas, Monterey, Kansas, etc., and the great plains that stretched for thousands of miles.

Due to the close relationship between the Tang Kingdom and the southern United States, the possibility of war between the two sides is extremely small, this is a relatively weak iron pincer, with a field mobile strike division and 5 frame divisions, with a total strength of 18,700.

While shouldering the burden of dealing with U.S. pressure, the Southern Military District mainly targeted the Mexican rebel Southern Aztec Republic.

After the signing of the Jinling Friendship Treaty between Tang and Mexico, the Tang Kingdom actually concluded a military alliance with the current government of Mexico and had the right to military protection of the country.

If the Southern Aztec Republic breaks the existing ceasefire line, then the fun will be great......

The Tang Kingdom had every reason to send troops to fight, to support and cheer up the often angry Mexican government guides, and to assist the Mexican government army to chase and fight all the way and wave its troops south.

And this task belongs to the Southern Military District.

The jurisdiction of the Northern Military Region includes the six states that originally belonged to the United States, namely Montana, Colorado, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, and Nebraska, with a total strength of 46,600 people.

The Northern Military Region directly threatens the Great Lakes industrial region, which is vital to the economy of the northern United States, and is also a densely populated area in the northern United States, as well as a key military fortification area of the United States.

Across the Missouri River, the United States has stationed more than 88,000 troops in border towns, almost more than 70 percent of its troops are hoarded in the area, and a dozen fortresses and hundreds of town defenses have been built with heavy money.

The United States has also suffered enough of the cavalry of the Tang Kingdom, and they are crisscrossing the Great Plains, as if they are returning to their own yards, fighting when they want to, and leaving when they want.

The reason why the Tang Kingdom does not maintain many troops in the north and south military regions is because the Tang Kingdom has the most complete military service mobilization system and reserve system in the world today, and has a strategic reserve system, which can easily raise up to 450,000 troops within a month after the all-out war mobilization.

These 450,000 troops are not serfs armed with rudimentary weapons in the Russian Empire, but more than half of the veterans with service experience, plus young and middle-aged militiamen with perfect military training, with perfect weapons and considerable combat effectiveness.

In the Northern Military Region, where the Tang Kingdom was at the forefront of the confrontation with the United States, almost every Chinese resident living here knew how to use a gun, and hunting on horseback was a necessary skill, and sharpshooters emerged in an endless stream.

Whether it is grazing cattle and sheep or self-employed farms, in the agricultural and animal husbandry production in the vast northern region, it is almost necessary to pick up a gun from time to time to patrol the farm and hunt wild wolves, foxes, beavers, passenger pigeons, and other wild animals.

Occasionally, local ranches and farms often organized hunting teams to hunt the bison herds to prevent the herd from harming the crops, which was a routine cavalry combat training.

The volunteer cavalry team organized every winter is a fairly regular armed force, and its combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.

It is precisely by relying on a strong civil foundation that the Tang Kingdom now has the ability to organize a cavalry corps of more than 150,000 people or more, and the war background is many times stronger than 7 years ago.

This approach of "combining the military with the people" is where the Tang Kingdom has sufficient confidence to deal with the challenge of the United States.

In peacetime, there is absolutely no need to maintain an excessively high number of military personnel, so the Northern Military District is also dominated by 10 rack divisions, and only two fully manned field mobile strike divisions are retained.

They are the 1st Northern Division ~ Yuzhun "Dahe Division", the 4th Northern Division ~ Yuzhun "Hongyan Valley Division", all of which are cuirassier heavy cavalry divisions.

Each division has two cuirassier heavy cavalry regiments, three light cavalry regiments, and an artillery regiment, which is good at long-distance running operations and extremely strong combat effectiveness, and is the trump card unit of the Tang Kingdom.

The 1st Northern Division, the Great River Division, was stationed at Fort Obaha on the Missouri River and was at the forefront of the front against the United States.

The "Red River Valley Division" of the Fourth Northern Division is stationed on the outskirts of Phoenix City, only a few dozen kilometers away from the Hongyan Valley Fortress, and can rush to the front line at any time.

With the dense fortified defense line on the Colorado Plateau, it can be described as impregnable, and it is basically impossible for the US military to break through the area without paying a heavy price.
