Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

When everyone heard Zhang Yanyu's words, they all looked at Qian Hongtao aside.

Among all the people present, only Qian Hongtao had fought against the Sakura Kingdom and the Koreans.

Qian Hongtao felt the eyes of everyone, and he nodded with certainty, and then said: "Brother Zhang is right, Goryeo's servant division does not have much combat effectiveness."

"They generally have low morale and poor equipment. Their only role is to act as cannon fodder on the battlefield and wave flags."

After hearing Qian Hongtao's words, everyone turned their attention to Zhang Yanyu.

"Yanyu, continue talking." Lin Yi looked at Zhang Yanyu and said slowly.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Yanyu responded, and then continued: "Your Majesty, what we mean is that since the only one who can fight us is the Sakura Empire, then let's not be timid and just make a bold move!"

As he spoke, Zhang Yanyu walked up to the map hanging on the wall with some excitement and used a baton to draw lines on the map.

"The Sakura Army on the southern front is now mainly concentrated on the Liaozhou Peninsula. Behind them, only Shengjing, Songyuan, and Siping have garrisons to guard against our army."

"The total strength is only two brigades and one Goryeo division. Our first division is mainly concentrated in Tongliao and Aohan, while Lord Sun's Beijing camp is in Beipiao and Jinzhou."

"To the east of Mr. Sun, a brigade of the Sixth Division of the Sakura Kingdom is stationed at Yingkou. The rest of the main forces of the Sakura Kingdom are in Gaizhou and Zhuanghe."

"This actually gives us an opportunity to penetrate the rear of Sakura Country."

"As long as we can defeat the brigade at Yingkou in the south, capture Shengjing in the north, and then occupy the empty Fengcheng and Dandong, then the soldiers of the Sakura Kingdom on the Liaozhou Peninsula will be surrounded by us. "

"In this case, there will be Rakshasa Kingdom in front of Sakura Kingdom and our First Army behind them, and their logistics supplies will be cut off."

"Whether it's supply lines on land or supply lines at sea."

"And if the Sakura Kingdom wants to re-open the supply line, it must either repel the [-] people from our First Division and the Beijing Camp, or capture the Liaozhou Fortress Group."

Lin Yi nodded when he heard Zhang Yanyu's words.

According to Zhang Yanyu's arrangement, the entire northern part of the Liaozhou Peninsula will be blocked by the First Army, and the Sakura Kingdom soldiers attacking the Liaozhou Peninsula will not get any supplies.

Unless the Sakura Kingdom can defeat the First Army's defense line with Maxim's defense head-on.

So the defense line built by Maxim was so easy to be broken through? If it were, then the Somme would not be called a meat grinding ground, and World War I would not be called a war that changed the world's military tactics.

You know, this thing killed [-] people in just one day.

Lin Yi could not guarantee the first legion at this time, but in terms of firepower alone, Lin Yi could definitely say that he was the legion with the strongest firepower at the same scale.

This is true whether in Daxia or in the world.

A regiment has 26 people. Lin Yi is equipped with five Maxims per basic platoon and one ZB-[-] light machine gun per squad.

A company is equipped with a gun platoon and has two Schneider 75-caliber artillery.

In addition to the artillery platoons owned by each company, a battalion also has an additional artillery battery with 12 Schneider artillery pieces.

Each regiment is equipped with an artillery battalion and 24 Schneider artillery pieces.

A division is equipped with two light artillery regiments and one heavy artillery regiment.

The light artillery regiment has 96 Schneider guns, and the two regiments have 192 Schneider guns.

The heavy artillery regiment consists of 24 VZ-14, 149 mm heavy guns.

The above number of artillery pieces does not include the number of artillery pieces equipped by each company and battalion level.

A rough estimate is that the number of weapons possessed by a division of the First Army is about 800.

And based on the capabilities of the Sakura Empire, artillery over 75 mm is considered a heavy artillery. Many of their Class A divisions are equipped with 37 mm or 60 mm mountain guns.

Whether it is quantity or quality, the First Legion far surpasses the Sakura Empire. What can they use to break through the First Legion's defense line?

Head?

Even with human heads, Lin Yi was confident enough to hold them all to death in front of the position.

However, this kind of firepower ratio does not mean that there are no shortcomings. Not to mention other things, the logistics supply alone is a headache.

Fortunately, Zhao Xu had ordered the entire Daxia arsenal to urgently manufacture a batch of artillery shells and ammunition.

Although Daxia's heavy industry and military industry are not very good, it can still produce some bullets and artillery shells.

At the same time, Lin Yi also purchased a batch of ammunition from his assistant in case of emergency.

In order to arm the First Legion and buy weapons, Lin Yi emptied his own Prince Rui's palace.

He is now waiting to win this battle, and then go to Sakura Country and Rakshasa Country to compensate. After all, if he doesn't return the blood, he, Prince Rui, won't be able to handle it anymore.

These days, landlords don’t have much food left...

"What other ideas do you have? Let's talk about it together." Lin Yi nodded to Zhang Yanyu and motioned for him to sit down before looking at the others.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates believe that in addition to guarding against the Sakura National Division surrounded by us on the Liaozhou Peninsula, we also need to guard against enemy forces supporting from the direction of Goryeo."

"Your Majesty, please ask your Majesty to send the first division to capture Dandong and Fengcheng!"

"My subordinate is willing to issue a military order and will never let any reinforcements from the Sakura Kingdom pass through the defense line of my first division!"

When Xue Dingshan, commander of the First Division, saw Lin Yi asking, he immediately stood up and said to Lin Yi.

"Eh? Lao Xue, this is your fault! We came up with this plan, why do you want to pick my peach?"

"Your Majesty, what we are saying is that you have to keep your bowl of water level. Whatever happens in this matter, it has to be done by my fifth division!" Zhang Yanyu suddenly became anxious when he heard that Xue Dingshan wanted to compete with him for the key point of Dandong.

He only talked about Dandong and Fengcheng, partly because these two places are indeed the transportation hubs of the Liaozhou Peninsula like Goryeo.

To the west, he could attack the small cherry blossoms on the Liaozhou Peninsula, and to the east, he could beat up the reinforcements in the Goryeo region. This was something he specially reserved for himself.

Why is Zhang Yanyu so confident that Dandong Lin Yi will hand it over to him. The main reason is that the predecessor of the Fifth Division was the horse bandits.

They have a large number of military horses in hand, which can be quickly inserted. Zhang Yanyu still remembers what Lin Yi mentioned to him before, such as fast troops.

Anyway, it just means one thing, that is, you have to be fast, and you have to complete the set goal before everyone can react.

Zhang Yanyu felt that the opinions put forward by Lin Yi were very consistent with his fifth division, so since then, Zhang Yanyu has specially strengthened the military and horse configuration of the fifth division.

The current fifth division can be said to have two horses per person, and it can truly respond quickly.

Dandong is the farthest away from Tongliao. Zhang Yanyu feels that no matter what, Dandong should be handed over to him.

But who knew that at this time, Xue Dingshan of the First Division would jump out and compete with him.
