In the battle conference room of Siris in Ireland Hill, Chief of Staff Luo Kai of the Imperial General Staff was showing Chris various alternative plans.
"Your Majesty! The preliminary candidates include Hanhai and Demon City... These places have their own advantages." He pointed at the report and introduced the advantages of these candidate cities to Chris.
"The Demonic City can transport the navy, and it is adjacent to the Ferry City so that we can transport the weapons and equipment we produce to the Demon Realm." After Luo Kai introduced several cities, he began to introduce the more suitable alternative cities.
It is best for these cities not to be too prosperous, and of course not too remote. They must be a transportation node and be adjacent to some heavy industrial bases.
Only in this way can we immediately transfer the materials to the Demon Realm and maximize our advantages.
The advantages of Ireland Hill lie in the speed of industrial production, as well as the dispatching advantages of the modern system. The advantages of dispatching and command can be exerted everywhere. The advantage of industrial production requires the right time and place to achieve it.
Although there are now large floating transport ships to supplement transportation capacity, those who can use railways and roads for transshipment still need to use these transportation lines to supplement.
"The disadvantage is that this place is too close to Seris City. If we lose control, it may affect our core industrial area..." Luo Kai finished introducing the advantages and then talked about the problem of the Demonic City. He hoped that His Majesty the Emperor would
You can think more about it.
"Of course, after calculation, the possibility of losing control is very low. But we have to consider this reason." He then continued to add.
Then, he mentioned another alternative city: "Compared to Fallen Demon City, which is adjacent to Dukou City, I am actually more optimistic about another alternative, which is Hanhai."
Hanhai's location advantage is actually very obvious. It is close to Beijun, a stone's throw away from the industrial city Tubao, and is surrounded by mountains on both sides. It is relatively easy to be blocked, so it is also a very suitable place.
"The location of Hanhai is the same. It is not far from our core industrial area, nor too close." After Luo Kai finished talking about the advantages, he started to talk about the shortcomings of Hanhai: "If there is a problem, we can find it in Beijun
Set up a defense line to enclose the vast sea. Therefore, from a safety perspective, the vast sea is more suitable than the Demonic City."
There is another question that he did not mention, that is, Hanhai is the node where the Ellandhill Empire's power grid transmits power to the grassland area. If there is a problem here, the grassland area will return to before liberation.
"Of course, there are many problems with other alternatives. Some people have proposed opening a portal to the Demon Realm near Briburn... However, it is too far from our core industrial area, and the problem of southbound transportation is actually huge.
"Luo Kai has some other plans in his hands, but these plans are obviously not as attractive as the two alternatives above.
"The problem with Nobal is similar. It's very far there. Although the transportation on the westbound railway has been somewhat alleviated, the problem is still serious." After finishing speaking, Luo Kai closed the report in his hand and waited.
Chris makes his own choice.
The responsible persons sent by several cities are waiting for His Majesty Emperor Chris to decide the future of the cities they are responsible for.
"So, what we need to choose now is Dragonfall City or Hanhai?" Chris tapped the copy of the plan in front of him with his hand, thinking about which place is more suitable.
Now, just one word from him will determine the future development of this city. If the attack on the Demon Realm is successful, then this city will become the entrance to the Demon Realm, and there will be no obstacles to its prosperity.
But if it fails, the selected place will become another front line against the devil. At that time, it will become a war zone and be covered by the flames of war.
"Let's go to the Demonic City... Since we can't be sure where the exit of this portal is, it is more suitable to be close to the sea. Otherwise, it will be too difficult for the navy to enter the Demon Realm." Chris finally chose
The auspicious name of the Demonic City.
This city is the testimony of Elanshir's victory over the demonic invasion, and its name is indeed very fitting for this attack.
Therefore, after Chris made a decision, he chose the entrance in such a place: "Let the Dragon King open a portal in the Fallen Demon City! And we will use the recent period of time to build a cross-sea bridge that meets the transportation capacity to connect the Fallen Demon City.
Magic City and Ferry City!”
"In addition, let the floating transport ships gather as soon as possible. We must use as little time as possible to deploy enough troops in the Demon Realm!" He ordered, and the general in charge of transportation and dispatching over there put His Majesty the Emperor's order
Recorded in his meeting minutes.
Then, Chief of Staff Luo Kai continued to introduce the composition of the Ailan Hill troops entering the Demon Realm: "The Demon Realm Expeditionary Force is composed of elite veterans drawn from the 1st, 9th, and 13th Army Groups.
"
He drew a circle on a blackboard representing a portal, and then drew a series of small symbols representing troops around the circle.
After these troops enter the demon world, they will violently attack in nine directions to establish a safe landing site for the advance troops.
Luo Kai pointed at these small symbols and introduced to Chris: "The size of this army is not large now, with only about 9 divisions in total! But we will soon mobilize follow-up troops to reinforce these troops."
"Until it is reinforced, this force will operate without air cover, so we have assembled more artillery and air defense forces to ensure the safety of the airspace for this expeditionary force."
"According to the combat plan, we will seize a demon assembly point as soon as possible, including but not limited to castles or towns."
"Using this node as a stronghold, we will quickly occupy the nearby plain areas to ensure the entry of subsequent engineering troops."
"The two engineer divisions will enter the Demon Realm later. They will bring enough equipment to build an airport in the Demon Realm. As long as the airport is completed, the air force can enter the Demon Realm to fight."
"Everything is based on speed! We must quickly occupy a large enough landing point to ensure that subsequent troops can enter the demon world without hindrance."
"In addition, we are not sure that there are scarier creatures, larger and longer-range weapons in the demon world, so we can only evaluate the demon's resistance based on the demon's combat power at this stage!"
"According to computer calculations, the demon army will be defeated within 1 hour to 3 hours... If everything goes well, we will expand the landing point to about 900 square kilometers within 5 hours!"
"It's not difficult to build a landing site with a depth of 30 kilometers both vertically and horizontally, but then you may run into the enemy's counterattack troops. In the beginning, there may only be devil dogs..."
"Once we encounter the enemy, our whereabouts will be completely exposed. At that time, the enemy's counterattack will be very targeted."
"We estimate that in 7 hours, elite troops of the Demon Force will arrive near the landing site. Our defense line will undergo the most brutal test at that time."
"The frontline troops will soon run out of ammunition, and subsequent supplies may not be delivered to them as soon as possible."
"So, my suggestion is to increase the proportion of magicians in the army as much as possible, so that our troops can continue to fight for a while after they run out of ammunition and food."
"As much as possible, arrange for the exoskeleton troops to go to the demon world... This can increase the firepower and give these soldiers the ability to engage in hand-to-hand combat..." Chris frowned and ordered after hearing this.
He must ensure the safety of these front-line troops. If the defense line is penetrated, then the airport and other field facilities behind these troops, as well as the tens of thousands of engineering troops, will all be lost.
"Don't worry! The night elves will also send out magician troops. We also have dwarf troops, and the dragon tribe will also help... If it doesn't work, let the orc tribe also send some troops..." Chris can use it now.
There are really too many troops.
The Magic Continent has never seen such a powerful force, gathering all races from dragons to humans, and bringing together all the elites of these races.
The elves have already called, telling Chris that they will have an elite force led by the Elf Queen herself, and they will be the first batch to enter the portal.
As for the Dragon King, he planned to let his most powerful general Brooke lead the Dragon Clan's Golden Armor Legion as the vanguard, coordinating with an army of about 1,000 orc lion knights.
If you include the human army of Ailan Hill, this army's combat capabilities are still very powerful.
The Beast King can create a portal that is larger than originally expected. This is an advantage that Chris only recently learned about. This allows Chris to send enough troops to the demon world in one go, and the danger is also reduced a lot.
.
"What if it's at sea? If the portal opens at sea, do we have a complete battle plan?" Chris frowned and asked Luo Kai.
A confident smile appeared on Luo Kai's face. He looked at Defense Minister Castner beside him and said easily: "If the portal is lucky and opens at sea, we... will have almost won the war! Your Majesty!
"
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Kastner nodded and continued: "If we appear on the sea and the devil cannot find our traces within 10 hours...then the main force of the navy can all pass through the portal!
"
"When the time comes... even if all the devil's fleets surround us... it will be of no use." Admiral Bakalov raised his chin and said: "At that time, Your Majesty, you will have only one question to consider: Where should we land?
