Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Lin Yi heard the shouts from everyone present, whether they were true or false, he still nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good, now I will talk about the task arrangements."

"Everyone must know that after the empire declared war on the Allies, the empire's enemies are currently mainly in two directions, one is the Rakshasa Empire in the north, and the other is the Gaul and John Empire in Southeast Asia."

"The Yinglong fleet has already gone to Oahu. If their sneak attack is successful, then we won't have to consider the issue of Milician sending troops in a short period of time."

"This means that the empire needs to fight on two fronts."

After hearing Lin Yi finish talking about the two-front battle, everyone present looked solemn. They had considered this issue a long time ago.

Although fighting on two fronts is dangerous and will greatly test the empire's logistics, there is no way around it.

"I know what you are worried about, but I assure you that logistics issues will be personally supervised by His Majesty and I, and we will ensure the logistics supply for the front line." Seeing the faces of everyone, Pan Chengzhang said.

After hearing Pan Chengzhang's assurance, everyone looked better.

Let’s not talk about Emperor Zhao Xu. Let’s talk about Pan Chengzhang. He has been in charge of the military for so many years. He has always been cautious and fair. Everyone still has great trust in Pan Chengzhang.

"Since everyone has no objection to the two-way battle, I will continue." Lin Yi glanced at everyone and then continued.

"Whether it's the Rakshasa Empire in the north or the Gaul and John Empire in the south, we have fought against them all, and the empire has never lost since the Longxiang Army was established."

"In addition, according to intelligence, their focus is on Europe, so the resistance we may encounter in the Far East will not be that strong."

"So, based on the topography in the north and south directions, the arrangements are as follows."

"Except for the Fifth Division and the Sixth Division, the Longxiang Army rushed collectively to Guangdong, Guangxi and Yun Provinces. From three directions, they launched attacks on the Gallic Empire and the John Empire entrenched in Southeast Asia."

"The Tubo area needs defense. This will be the responsibility of the Tibetan army commander. The Xichuan area serves as a reserve force and is ready to support at any time."

"In addition, the Longxiang army stationed in Guangdong Province needs to regain Xiangjiang and Aozhu first. These two places have been away from the empire for a long time. I hope to get them back this time."

"As for the Dongchuan Army on Yizhou Island, you took the newly recruited Yizhou Army from Yizhou Island and landed in Siam. You opened up a battlefield behind them and held back Gaul and the John Empire so that they could not attack the Longxiang Army with all their strength."

"As for the northern plan against the Rakshasa Kingdom, we need to defend the Western Region and attack on the grassland to cut off supplies from the Far East."

"As for the Far East, which is more difficult to deal with, we have the Jingying Camp, the [-]th and [-]th Divisions of the Longxiang Army, the Guanwai Army, and the Goryeo Army to deal with it."

"This king has two requirements for the Rakshasa Empire in the north. One is to get Vladivostok and Ussuriysk back!" Lin Yi pointed at the map behind him.

However, when he said this, he suddenly paused, and then said with a hint of anger: "This name is really convoluted, what the hell is it!"

“From now on we will still call them Twin Cities and Vladivostok!”

When everyone heard Lin Yi's nonsense, they were stunned for a moment, and then started laughing.

Of course, they were not laughing at Lin Yi, but they could hear the momentum of victory from Lin Yi's words.

What does "will still be called the Twin Cities and Vladivostok from now on"? The naming rights of this area belong to whoever occupies it and names it.

Lin Yi changed his name rashly, which means that after this battle, these two places will definitely belong to the empire.

That's why these generals laugh.

Vladisvotok, no, it should be called Vladivostok now.

Whether it is Vladivostok, the Twin Cities, or even Sakhalin further east, they are the inherent territories of the empire, and they have been since ancient times.

Since the establishment of the Andong Protectorate in the Tang Dynasty, this place has been the inherent territory of the Xia Dynasty.

Many of the northern ethnic minorities who have left a strong mark on the history of Daxia originated from these areas.

In the past, Daxia was weak and was robbed by the Rakshasa Kingdom, but now that the empire is strong, it must be taken back!

"Your Majesty! I have a question!" At this time, a voice suddenly sounded from the crowd.

Lin Yi looked at the man and found that it was Zhu Zhizhang, the new commander of the Western Region Army.

The former commander of the Western Region Army, Sheng Zengren, colluded with the Rakshasa Empire and prepared to betray the empire, but was successfully captured by Zeng Shaoqing's Fourth Division.

After that, Pan Chengzhang promoted Zhu Zhizhang to become the commander of the Western Region Army.

Zhu Zhizhang's personal experience can be said to be very amazing.

He was a student in the sixth batch of Yanwu Hall, and graduated with the tenth place in the sixth batch, and has been working in Guangdong and Guangxi Province ever since.

Under his training, the combat effectiveness of the Gui army improved several levels. When faced with the provocation of Annan's Gallic army, he chose to fight back hard.

It repeatedly repelled small groups of provocative troops sent by Gaul and maintained the empire's security and territorial integrity in the southwestern region.

At that time, the jurisdiction of the Western Region had just been taken back. Lin Yi considered that the Western Region was close to Rakshasa and far away from the Central Plains. In case of war, it would take a long time for the empire's support to the Western Region to arrive.

Therefore, Lin Yi told Pan Chengzhang that he needed to arrange a strong and capable person in the Western Region who was loyal to the empire.

Pan Chengzhang directly recommended Zhu Zhizhang without even thinking about it. Therefore, Lin Yi was deeply impressed by Zhu Zhizhang.

"Speak." Lin Yi nodded to Zhu Zhizhang.

"Your Majesty, not only the territory outside the customs has been taken away by the Rakshasa people, but also the territory in our Western Region!"

"I would like to ask the prince, do we want to get back the territory that was taken away from the Western Region?" Zhu Zhizhang looked at Lin Yi and asked.

Hearing Zhu Zhizhang's words, Lin Yi smiled faintly. He finally understood what Zhu Zhizhang meant.

"I understand, thank you for your blessing, you are here to help me!" Lin Yi scolded with a smile.

"Aren't you just asked to defend, aren't you willing? Okay, then I will give you the privilege. You can make your own decisions about the war in the Western Region. Whether to attack or defend, you decide for yourself."

"But my only request is that not an inch of the existing land in the Western Regions be lost! As long as you can guarantee this, you can take care of the rest!"

Zhu Zhizhang was not annoyed when he saw that his little thoughts were exposed by Lin Yi. Hearing that Lin Yi asked him to make his own decision, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Whenever an inch of land is lost in the Western Region, I don't need Your Majesty to take action. I will pick off the head myself and send it to Your Majesty's account!" Zhu Zhizhang looked at Lin Yi and said solemnly.

"Why do I need your dog's head? Your dog's head should be properly placed on your neck!" Lin Yi laughed and cursed in the same way, and then looked around at everyone present again.

"Gentlemen, I still say what I said. This war is an opportunity for the empire! Whether the empire can regain its glory of yesterday depends entirely on this battle!"

"Therefore, I hope that you will fight bravely against the enemy. Your majesty will not forget your efforts, and neither will the empire!"

"Yes!" The dozens of commanders present stood up after hearing Lin Yi's words, and solemnly saluted Lin Yi and the imperial dragon flag behind him.
