Chapter 1447: The next battle(1/2)
"Battle Book?"
"Battle Book?"
Hearing this.
Everyone looked confused and confused.
"Yes."
Wang Kang said, "I am going to give the enemy a letter of war and engage in a battle!"
Everyone looked at each other.
Or Jiang Chenghua said, "The enemy reinforcements are about to arrive. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to issue a letter of war?"
A letter of war was given, and the two sides made an appointment to fight.
This is a common thing in war, just like two armies fighting, with the generals of the enemy and us fighting in front of the formation.
The war letter was released.
If both sides face the challenge.
Then a region will be selected and the two armies will fight head-on.
But at this time, it is not suitable.
Enemy reinforcements are coming.
After detailed investigation, you can know.
This time the enemy came to the main army, including the armies of the three countries: Wu, Wei and Ba.
The specific number has not been known yet, but it will definitely not be small.
And there is also the Central Army directly under the Great Chu court!
Under the feudal system, the Chu State had thirty-six vassal states, which had great autonomy and therefore had great disadvantages!
If you want to ensure the authority of the court, you must have the strength to shock the various vassal states!
If there is a rebellion, it can be cleared out in time!
Although there are many vassal states, in recent years, no incident of vassals and kings chasing chaos has happened.
The reason is that the court is strong and authoritative!
Where does authority come from?
It is not royal blood, but military strength!
The imperial court has its own army, with a huge number and extraordinary combat power.
Whether it is elite or weapons and equipment, they are all top-notch.
Collectively known as the Central Army!
And this time, the Chu court sent the Central Army!
Wang Kang was right, although they achieved great results and killed two princes and kings, causing huge losses.
But the gap in force still exists.
If you write a letter of war, fight head-on.
Then both sides will inevitably invest in all the main forces to fight!
The enemy's troops have the advantage.
This kind of war is like an egg hitting a stone.
The best way is to rely on current morale and adopt strategies, similar to the elimination of King Jin and King Nan, to defeat each one, constantly eliminate it, and narrow the difference in military strength.
This is a long-term war, and this patience is necessary.
Therefore, it is extremely unwise and irrational to write a letter of war.
At least the time is not yet available.
The enemy has just experienced a series of great defeats, and they urgently need a big victory to boost morale and eliminate the decline.
This is exactly what the enemy wants.
All the soldiers present are the chief generals, and they naturally have this strategic vision.
But they didn't dare to directly refute it, and only Jiang Chenghua said it.
But it is not a direct advice.
Wang Kang said, "I know your concerns, but this is something I have thought about."
Although his tone was calm, it was undeniable!
"Please consider it more."
Jiang Chenghua said, "The meaning of the war is different. The enemy will inevitably face the battle. According to the following view, we have achieved great results now. We should stabilize the front line and slowly plan..."
"Slowly picture it?"
Wang Kang asked back: "I wonder if you have ever thought about a question: How long will it take for you to prepare for this battle?"
Everyone was silent for a moment.
After a while, a general tentatively said: "Ten years?"
Then he shook his head again.
"Twenty years?"
"Thirty years?"
Many people have said a period of time, but this is not accurate.
No one knows how long this battle will take. As they said, ten years, twenty years, thirty years, or even more, are possible!
Even if this generation doesn’t work, the next generation will continue to fight!
Because these are the two strongest sides in the mainland at present, and everyone knows that this is not a war between ordinary countries.
After one party surrendered, he paid compensation and ceded the land. He signed an agreement and then it was over.
Won't!
This is a war of death!
The State of Chu is too big!
Even if they have an advantage, it will be a long process to capture them all!
"Master Commander."
Jiang Chenghua spoke, "This is the case with war. It is impossible to be anxious. If it is too urgent, it may backfire..."
Everyone nodded.
They all felt that Wang Kang was too anxious.
Urgently seek success.
If you want to have a decisive battle with the enemy and set the victory, you must also consider the actual situation.
"No."
Wang Kang shook his head and said, "That's too slow."
If this continues, then when should I fight?
"There is another question you have to consider: fighting is about making money and logistics supplies. Have you ever thought about it?"
Everyone looked at each other.
They were all the heads of each legion, and the logistics were uniformly allocated by the commander camp. They had considered it, but did not take it seriously.
"We have been fighting for such a long time, let alone whether we can defeat the enemy, we will be dragged down ourselves!"
Wang Kang was the commander of the Allied Army, and he had many things to be responsible for.
Logistics is also a top priority.
With such a large-scale army, the daily consumption is an astronomical number!
The military supplies and food required today are all borne by the Union.
Yan State is self-sufficient.
Both Yue and Zhao must have something to come out.
There are also expenditures on the northern grasslands, mainly supporting forage.
The grassland war horses are powerful, but they are also very expensive and require special breeding, otherwise it will be difficult to ensure combat effectiveness!
Logistical expenditure is huge.
Wang Kang is under great pressure!
