Chapter 1457 Allen's Strategy

"yes!"

After responding respectfully, Allen cleared his throat and slowly expressed his thoughts:

"The national strength of the Britannian Empire is far above our country's supremacy - although I am very unwilling to give up, this is a fact of irony."

Speaking of this, Alan took a special glance at Emperor Xiade and observed Emperor Xiade's expression.

After confirming that there was nothing unusual on Emperor Xia De's face and that he was not angry because of his words just now, Alan continued:

"The current national strength of the Britannian Empire is at its peak."

"From the current national strength of the Britannian Empire, it is no problem to launch an expeditionary force of 3.4 million people."

"Although the current national strength of the Holy Hillan Empire is much worse than before, it is still possible to grit our teeth and pull up an army of 100,000 to launch an invasion of our country."

"Therefore, the number of coalition forces between the Britannian Empire and the Holy Hiran Empire will be as high as 4.5 million."

"And the current troops that our country can use for combat are only 100,000."

"With our current weak military power, we will fight against the coalition forces of the Britannian Empire and the Holy Hiran Empire head-on. To be honest, there is only one way to die."

Speaking of this, Allen paused again, turned his head and looked at Emperor Xiade's expression.

Seeing that Emperor Xiade was still expressionless, Alan continued with confidence:

"So--we must avoid head-on confrontation with the coalition forces of the Britannian Empire and the Holy Hillan Empire!"

"In Xiaguan's opinion, the best strategy to fight against the enemy is scorched earth."

"Do not engage in head-on battles with the coalition forces of the two countries, and withdraw all supplies along the west to Bellu, and all supplies along the north to Bellu, and concentrate them on Bellu!"

"At the same time, all our troops are concentrated in Berlu."

"We are in the city of Berlu, and we are fighting a decisive battle with the coalition forces of the Britannia Empire and the Holy Heran Empire!"

After listening to Allen explaining his strategy, Xia De was stunned.

After a while, Xia Decai said anxiously:

"Do you want me to give up all the land north and west of Belle without shooting an arrow?!"

"Your Majesty..." Allen said in a deep voice, "I know it's hard to accept, but I dare to use my life to guarantee it - this is indeed the strategy with the highest chance of winning in our country at present!"

"There are two major benefits to implementing such scorched earth combat."

"The first major benefit - it can prevent the coalition forces of the two countries from obtaining supplies along the way of the attack! Increase the logistics burden of the coalition forces of the two countries!"

"The more the coalition forces of the two countries move forward, the heavier the logistical pressure they bring!"

"The supply line of the two-country coalition forces will become increasingly fragile!"

"The second biggest benefit is that we can concentrate our troops and supplies in our country's first strong city - Bolu!"

"Relying on the strong Bolu and abundant supplies, our army's long-lasting war of resistance can be made possible!"

"The supply line is constantly being lengthened and the coalition forces of the two countries cannot obtain supplies along the way naturally cannot withstand long expeditionary operations."

"As long as we can hold on until the supply line of the two coalition forces collapses or exhausts the supply line, it will be a victory for our country."

"...I understand." Xia De said in a deep voice, "General Jones, what you mean is... put the battlefield in Berlu, and drag down the supply line of the two coalition forces through the protracted war of resistance. Am I right?"

"That's right." Allen nodded.

After a while of silence, Xia De turned his head and looked at another general, Rudolph.

"General Rudolf von Baumann, I want to hear your opinion. If the Britannian Empire and the Holy Heran Empire launch an invasion on our country, how can we fight against the enemy to obtain the highest chance of victory."

"Your Majesty." Rudolph nodded to Shade, "I partially agree with General Jones' combat plan."

"Somewhat agree?" Xia De frowned, "How do you say this?"

“I agree with General Jones’ idea of ​​using scorched earth.”

"From our current national strength, scorched earth combat is indeed the strategy with the highest chance of victory."

"But I don't agree with scorched earth combat against both armies."

"I think - we should adopt the combat strategy of 'retreat on the Western Front and attack on the Northern Front'."

"The scorched earth combat was adopted on the Western Front, and all the supplies on the Western Front were withdrawn to Berlu, so that the Britannian army could not obtain supplies along the way."

"And on the northern line, we took the initiative to attack and defeated the Sheeran army through field battles."

"After defeating the Sheeran army, we will withdraw all our troops to Bellu, relying on the strong Bellu city, and fight a protracted war with the Britannian army."

Rudolph's words made Xia De frown again.

"General Bauman, why did he retreat on the Western Front and take the initiative to attack on the Northern Front?"

"Your Majesty," replied Rudolf, "the four major knights of the Britannian army have a total strength of nearly one million."

"From the current national strength of the Britannian Empire and the grudges we have with the Britannian Empire for the past century, the Britannian Empire has dispatched to attack our army, which is definitely more than 300,000."

"If we fight a decisive battle in the field with the Britannian army whose troops are far above us, our chances of victory will definitely be infinitely close to zero."

"So we must try our best to avoid head-on confrontation with the Britannian army and conduct a thorough scorched earth battle on the Western Front."

"Until the Britannian army approached Bellu, we will never fight with the Britannian army. We will slowly stretch and drag down the Britannian supply line."

"But the Sheeran army is different."

"From the current national strength of the Holy Hillan Empire, he can only dispatch at most 100,000 people."

"Their troops are comparable to ours, and they may have to be less than us."

"So if we have a decisive battle in the field with the Sheeran army, we have a chance of winning."

"If scorched earth is used in the west and north sides, then an army of about 4.5 million people will be gathered under the city of Bolu."

"Even if Bolu City is the most powerful city in our country, it is still too dangerous to face a large army of this size."

"Therefore, it is very necessary for us to reduce the number of enemy troops that can reach the city of Bellu as smoothly as possible."

"As long as we can defeat the Sheeran army on the northern line, the only troops that can reach the city of Berlu will be left."

"Only if the Britannian army is concerned, our chances of defending the city of Bellu will be greatly increased."

"As long as we can hold on to the city of Bellu, it will be a matter of time before the Britannian army's supply is exhausted."

"When the Britannian army retreats due to insufficient supply, it will be a victory for our country."

As soon as Rudolph finished speaking, another general who had not spoken since the beginning, Erich von Marceyu, was able to answer the conversation at this time:

"I agree with General Bauman's strategy of 'retreat on the Western Front and attacking on the Northern Front'."

"It would be too dangerous if both coalitions were allowed to concentrate at the city of Bolu."

"We must take the initiative to attack on the northern line and defeat the Sheeran army!"

"As long as the Sheeran army retreats, our next battle will be much easier."

Rudolph and Erich had the same idea.

Their ideas were contrary to Allen, which naturally meant that an argument would inevitably happen.
