Zhang Yi laughed loudly. He was already very happy with a bunch of old brothers, but now they are arguing about having children. It's really interesting.
Now everyone is looking at him, arguing and arguing with no result, and he can only make the decision.
"Brothers," Zhang Yi said, "my idea is to focus on taking over South Korea first, and then think about the Ryukyu Islands."
"Yi Ge, don't you want to attack at the same time?" Niu Ben asked.
"I don't want to," Zhang Yi said with a smile, "It's not a question of whether I want it or not. Daniel, South Korea is a tough nut. In history, China has sent troops to South Korea many times, but they have never completely conquered it."
"If we use artillery during this expedition, there will be no problem." Xiao Han said with confidence.
"Yes, Xiaohan," Zhang Yi said, "but we must consider that the Korean Peninsula has complex terrain and a large population. If South Korea and the Japanese pirates fight desperately, we will not be able to stabilize the local situation with just a few artillery pieces."
"If we want to maintain stability, we must completely eliminate the local Japanese pirates, and then integrate the Korean nation into China through integration policies," Xiaolong said.
"That's it. Xiaolong's idea is also my idea," Zhang Yi said, "We need to set up the Eastern Expeditionary Force as soon as possible. I will be in charge, Xiaohan and Xiaoshi will be the vanguard, Daniu will be in charge of logistics support, and Liu'er will be in charge of the art troupe and medical care Team."
Zhang Yi announced his decision, Xiao Han, Shi Gandang and Xiaoliu were quite satisfied, while Xiaolong and Niu Ben were depressed.
"Brother Yi, are you going to keep me in charge of Chang'an this time?" Xiaolong asked.
"Xiaolong, I really want to take you with me, but this time we are going on an expedition to South Korea and going deep into the hinterland of Greater China. There are many unpredictable things. We must have a stable rear." Zhang Yi comforted, "Once the situation changes, We also need you to take two generals, Wang Zheng and Asr, to lead the army to the rescue."
Having said this, Xiaolong immediately realized the seriousness of the problem. If Greater China turned its back and cut off the escape route, the situation of Yi Ge and others would be extremely dangerous.
"Xiaolong, you are our strongest backing. You shoulder an extremely heavy responsibility, so I will ask you to be an unsung hero for once." Xiaoliu advised.
Everyone wants to expedition to foreign countries and establish immortal military exploits, but there is always someone who has to guard the rear, and this person is none other than Xiaolong.
"Hey, I would like to stay in Chang'an and take charge of Brother Xiaolong, but I don't have Brother Xiaolong's skills. I'm just a martial artist." Shi Gandang sighed.
"Me too, we all have to remember that although Xiaolong cannot participate in this expedition, his contribution is greater than all of us," Niu Ben scratched his head and said with a look of dissatisfaction, "But, Yi Ge, you asked me to be responsible for the logistics. I have a little opinion!"
Niu Ben was so anxious that he stopped speaking Mandarin and turned to his hometown dialect.
Zhang Yi glared at him, Niu Ben pouted and fell silent.
"To be honest, I would like Xiaolong to be in charge of logistics. If we cooperate well with Greater China and there are no accidents, then we can ask Xiaolong to be in charge of logistics during the expedition to Japan," Zhang Yi said.
"My brother-in-law said that in war, logistics is really important. Logistics is really important. A few days ago, Chen Yiyi said that Greater China attacked South Korea twice, both of which reached Ryugyong. As a result, South Korea's sticks attacked from behind and destroyed the logistics. We had no choice but to retreat, losing 70,000 horses." Xiaoliu said, "Daniu, is your mission important?"
"It's important, it's important, God, there is such a thing!" Niu Ben patted his head a few times, and now he understood, "So that's it. Don't worry, brother, I will definitely guard the logistics line."
"That's right, Daniel, the battle you encounter in the rear may be more intense than in the front," Zhang Yi nodded happily, "Daniel's performance determines whether we can stabilize the results and achieve the final victory. Xiaolong, decide whether we can return to Chang'an and escape unscathed."
As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell into silence.
It's difficult, it's really difficult for the sworn brother. He wants to go on an expedition to a foreign country and fight bloody battles for the future of China. At the same time, he has to beware of his compatriots causing mischief behind his back.
Therefore, it is not easy for Zhang Yi to make such a decision!
Xiaoliu almost wanted to cry. She blinked, tears welling up in her eyes. She felt an indescribable feeling of grievance, frustration and bitterness.
"Today's situation is extremely complicated. It's difficult for us to be caught in the middle, but I believe in Yi Ge's wisdom. We must advance, attack, retreat and defend," Xiaolong raised his voice and said resolutely, "Then I will sit in Chang'an and do the work. We are ready to support you at any time, no one can try to take advantage of us!"
That's right.
With Xiaolong, Wang Zheng and Aser at the rear, they are a brave and resourceful team. With an army of more than 200,000, they can handle any situation they encounter.
It is impossible for Zhang Yi to put all his eggs in one basket. In that case, he would be gambling with everyone's wealth and lives. He would not do such a thing.
As a result, the command team of the Eastern Expeditionary Force and the arrangements for the rear areas were finalized.
…
"My sister-in-law just mentioned Liujing. It must be a city full of willow trees. My sister-in-law's name is Xiaoliu. Isn't this a good sign?" Xiao Han said with a smile.
"Really, after we occupy Liujing, we will transform it into another Chang'an and build a bigger garden for my sister-in-law!" Shi Gandang said cheerfully.
"That's a nice idea, little fat man," Xiao Liu said happily, "I do want a bigger garden. Go and ask my sworn brother if it's okay?"
"Don't ask, asking is just for scolding, hahaha." Niu Ben laughed.
Everyone laughed. My sworn brother would never seek personal gain for himself and his family. It was impossible to build a garden.
"Why build a garden and shut yourself in it?" Zhang Yi said with a smile, "Wouldn't it be better if we build the world into a garden and live in it with all kind people?"
Everyone clapped their hands and applauded. This is called the state of mind. You can't accept it unless you accept it.
After joking for a while, we continued to discuss the expedition. Zhang Yi estimated that the ideal time would be March, not any later.
Xiao Han calculated the production speed based on time and said.
"Brother Yi, for this expedition to South Korea, we can bring at least 20 armored vehicles, 20 artillery pieces, and thousands of rounds of artillery shells."
Everyone was overjoyed. Zhang Yi was extremely satisfied and nodded happily.
"These artillery pieces are enough for the first battle to conquer South Korea." Zhang Yi said, "Considering logistics and other issues, we don't need too many troops for this expedition. I think the main participating forces are the armored corps, the artillery unit, and the Mopan City 8,000 Iron Army. There are also 20,000 wolf cavalry."
The brothers nodded. The armored corps and artillery force totaled 2,000 people. Together with the iron army and wolf cavalry, the total force reached 30,000 people.
At such a scale, logistical support is relatively easy. There are few people, but because of the artillery, the combat effectiveness is extremely powerful.
