"Yes, Your Highness, given so much time to the Principality of Moxico, I am afraid that they can build hundreds of chariots, and the chariots are equipped with artillery, which is still a threat to our infantry chariots."

Sun Di also said so.

"Are you misunderstanding something?"

Ye Yu said and smiled slightly, "Try to make a corps first, if there is no problem...... Then get three out. ”

"Huh?"

The two froze.

They had never seen Ye Yu so "generous"!

"Three corps, with a regular army."

"These three corps become a column, and after you are the column commander."

Ye Yu opened his mouth and said, "I heard Zhang Xingbang say that there are wars in the west and east, do we have to fight too?" ”

"Your Highness...... But ......"

The two were puzzled, they felt that such a big move would hurt the daily life of the people.

"I know what you're thinking."

"Don't worry, Jiaguo can bear it."

"This is what I will say to Ye Lie after the winter summary meeting in the future."

Ye Yu spoke slowly, "But I'll reveal it to you first." ”

Sun Di and Zhao Qing looked at each other, nodded, and followed Ye Yu to the office.

"This is the next strategic deployment, and you know that our main energy source has changed from coal to diesel, right?"

Ye Yu said and the two nodded.

"Although we can make diesel ourselves, the oil we make is not an order of magnitude different from the oil we got from the Western Regions."

"But the Western Regions are too dangerous, and once the Principality of Moxico turns its gun, it will be dangerous over there."

Ye Yu explained, "Didn't an engineering team repair and expand the northern defense line before? ”

"Yes."

The two continued to nod.

"The northern defense line, on the one hand, is to prevent Moxico from attacking from the north, and on the other hand, it is to facilitate your attack."

"Attack?"

"Xianbei area, there should be some oil near there."

Seeing the doubts of the two, Ye Yu slowly explained, "Then occupy the entire territory of Xianbei, and we will send troops to Dongying." ”

They were thrilled to hear about this strategy.

Although they are not war maniacs, they have fought very hard during this period of passive defense.

Now I'm finally ready to play!

"Alright, you go and get ready."

Ye Yu raised his hand and motioned for them to leave.

"But Your Highness, I heard that Dongying is a few islands, and if you want to fight over there, you can't do it without a boat."

Zhao Qing was just about to leave when he suddenly thought.

"It's okay, the ship is already preparing."

Ye Yu said calmly, "You don't have to worry about this. ”

With his words, Zhao Qing and Sun Di were relieved to leave to continue the project of tanks and combat vehicles.

After Ye Yu rested a little, he continued to return to the large flat land that he had made out before in the mountains.

The construction of the airship continues here.

For Ye Yu, attacking Dongying can not only rely on the ship, but also the behemoth in front of him.

In addition to being able to fly, he also had to do the problem of defense, and the steel plate needed to be able to withstand the long-range fire of rapid-fire guns.

As for the artillery...... He doesn't care, the entire airship is considered hollow, and it is not easy to hit, let alone the problem of excessive penetration after hitting.

Only by flying in the sky can you have an absolute advantage.

What's more, there is nothing in the sky now.

There is no need for air control and command, and even the concept of air supremacy and airspace does not appear.

Compared with the slow progress of the airship, in addition to the combat vehicles and tanks, the speed here is also faster.

Not the project of ironclads, of course, but of shipbuilding.

After Zhang Ye's efforts during this period of time and the people and design drawings sent by Ye Yu.

He'd come up with something that could at least replace the ironclad.

On the basis of the original wooden ship, some iron hulls were installed on the outside, and then painted to prevent rust, which could basically resist rapid-fire guns.

Such side-chord artillery is eight, sixteen on both sides, plus various rapid-fire guns, but it is different.

Ten on one side plus four on the front and back, a total of twenty-eight rapid-fire guns!

Together with the steel shell outside, there is already enough combat power at sea.

Of these ships, Zhangye built three, which can accommodate a total of 100 people and are very large.

It is also considered that the harbor was built large enough at that time, and now it can accommodate at least five ships after being slightly fenced off.

Now he's building a small boat that can hold about 20 people.

Of course, these ships will also be covered with steel hulls to prevent rust with paint.

Two guns on the front, both rapid-fire guns on the side.

When these were being built, Zhangye officially started the ironclad project.

The main reason is that Ye Yu has already given the design drawing, and with the experiments done before, these people who have been transferred over are confident about building ironclad ships.

In the past, when they were in the Southern Dynasties, they were engaged in preliminary research on ironclad ships.

already had a mature theoretical foundation, plus Ye Yu's design drawings, they quickly started work.

However, the caliber of the guns of this ironclad ship is larger than that of the guns on land, and the turrets are also much larger than the turrets of combat vehicles and tanks.

This is something that needs to be tackled.

It is necessary to consider not only the weight, but also the stability of these guns.

Therefore, the construction of the ironclad ship has not been delayed.

Towards the end of the year, the winter conference opened, and the reports of various departments showed that Jiaguo was developing steadily, and unlike the crazy rapid development before, it was now mainly stable.

The living conditions of the people are also good.

After years of educational reform, the literacy rate of young people has exceeded 90 per cent.

The army is also full of talent.

"When you report, give me some bad news, I want to know, where is the problem, forget it this time, but I need to add it later."

Ye Lie frowned slightly and said.

He slowly let go, and the free time did rely on the railway to make private visits or patrols around the microservice.

In this nearly a whole year, he can be regarded as traveling all over the cities of Jiaguo and seeing the lives of the people.

Therefore, we have a more accurate grasp of Jiaguo.

In the afternoon of the next day, after the report was over, Ye Lie stayed to have dinner with the core ministers as usual.

Of course, he didn't expect that after such a bloody battle, Jiaguo's economy and people's livelihood would be stabilized.

And it can continue to grow!

"Before eating, Ye Yu, I heard you say that you have something to play, right?"

Ye Lie said, looking at Ye Yu on the edge of the seat.

"Exactly."

"This is the future direction of Jiaguo, and it is also my previous promise to you."

Ye Yu got up and spoke slowly, "Everyone, we have been passively defending for so long, and we have lost too much for the sake of the people not to lose. ”

With that, he walked up to Ye Lie, "Everyone, Ye Lie, I announce that we can attack outside. ”

This sentence made everyone here extremely excited, whether it was a civilian official or a military attaché, they were all fed up with the so-called different regions of the country before to come and do things!

Especially in the recent war, there is also the king of stability!
