Chapter 1334

The victory of the 10th Legion in the Battle of Liushantai made the Luzon assault cluster, which had been active in the Eastern Luzon region, threatening the Empire's supply line to the south of the cluster, finally collapsed. Since Tabraki hoped to completely eliminate the supply strongholds set up by the Liushantai Empire in one battle, he concentrated the two assault clusters together, which also wiped out the entire assault cluster, and directly led to the disappearance of the threat to the supply line of the imperial army. After this attack, the conservative Luzon garrison, Shiliad, never dared to invest his troops to attack Liushantai from Kuiyangba, the supply line of the imperial army, which gradually lost control of the Luzon Kingdom over this area.

In fact, some military scientists analyzed that if Hilliard could adhere to the implementation of Tabraki's harassment policy, it would make the empire unable to establish a stable supply line in the East Luzon region. Since there was no perfect road from Liushantaizi to Kuiyangba, a large amount of labor would be required to enter the road system. In the face of enemy attacks, if we want to build and open the road from Kuiyangba to Liushantaizi, it would be almost a pavilion in the air, and the original idea was to be expected.

The idea of ​​forming a siege of Luzon in central Luzon, namely Manlong and Robin, was impossible to realize. However, while Hilliard, who was conservative and cautious, insisted on implementing the policy of Frederick, the head coach of the Luzon military, was equivalent to handing over the control of Luzon, allowing the empire to carry out construction and development in this area without any scruples. As the road extends to the south step by step, the entire Eastern Luzon gradually became another dagger that the empire inserted into the waist of the Luzon Kingdom.

Then, with the full promotion of Kong Yunzhen, the Governor of Northern Luzon, a large number of labor forces had been recruited to continuously cross the southern border and entered the Eastern Luzon region, and began to fully invest in the construction of roads from Liushantai to Kuiyangba. Under the arrangement of the military, fortress fortress groups were also started to be built in Kuiyangba. The administrative area centered on Kuiyangba gradually took shape. Kong Yunzhen even clearly expressed his hope to establish Kuiyang Mansion in the Eastern Luzon region and become the fifth prefecture of Northern Luzon County. The address of the prefecture was chosen in Kuiyangba and a new policy was introduced to develop the Eastern Luzon region, encouraging the people of Vito to immigrate to the Eastern Luzon, and sent personnel to the Indian-Dean region to recruit immigrants to the Eastern Luzon development plan.

The young man in white-shirted standing in front of the rooftop with his hands on his back and forth staring at the distant sky had been paced back and forth on the rooftop for half an hour. Even the guards were so anxious when they saw the calm and wise coach. In their minds, the coach's position had risen to nearly the legendary God of War after successfully completing the battle against Comini. Nothing could stump him. In front of him, all the enemies were just native chickens and tile dogs vulnerable.

Frederick did encounter difficulties. He hesitated when he was determining who was the head coach of the Manlon region army. Kroof tended to let Tabraki be the head coach, but in the end Frederick chose Hilliard, who was more cautious. The battle report sent now seems to prove that his original choice was correct, but Frederick knew that he might have made a mistake. If he could give him a chance to make a new choice, he would choose Tabraki as the head coach. It was just that things were easy and he would never have such a chance again. If he made a mistake, he had to accept reality.

When Hilliard sent a plan to let Tabraki lead a 10,000 team to attack the enemy's supply line Frederick realized the trouble. Tabraki's idea of ​​attacking and destroying the Tang army's supply line was correct, but a 10,000 team was not enough to achieve this goal. If Tabraki was the head coach, Frederick estimated that Tabraki might send three 10,000 teams to divide into multiple attack clusters to launch an attack. For the Tang army, which has not yet established a stable foothold, it is almost fatal. Avoid its edge, choose its weakness, and sway and attack it. This is the essence of guerrilla strategy.

A 10,000 team is obviously a compromise move by Hilliard. In this case, Tabraki may lose many opportunities and have to choose to take risks. For example, when the enemy has only about 10,000 people, three 10,000 teams can launch an offense and concentrate their superior forces to siege and annihilate them, but a 10,000 team can only choose to give in and avoid it.

The good news sent in advance did not reassure Frederick. He was even more worried that Tabraki would take a greater adventure in order to prove the correctness of his own strategy. When he ordered Hilliard to ask Tabraki to suspend the attack, he had just sent it to Manlon City, a team of ten thousand people led by Tabraki had already encountered a battle of destruction in Liushantai. Tabraki, who had lost his prestige, could no longer bear the responsibility of leading the general, and the military judge would investigate and judge him. Frederick regretted it, but he could no longer change this fact.

The frequent activities of the Tang army in the north of Manlong were obviously to restrain Hilliard's attention. Of course, it is not ruled out that if Hilliard reacted weakly, they would take the opportunity to launch an offensive in the north. This made Frederick feel powerless. What he originally set was that the Tang people might take action in the Manlong area and force themselves to draw troops from the west to return to the central and northern Luzon land. Therefore, he would let Hilliard, who was cautious and calm, serve as commander and preside over the overall situation in the Manlong area, that is, he hoped that Hilliard could maintain the situation in the Manlong area not to deteriorate too much. As long as the Tang people could be blocked in the border area, it would be worth it even if he suffered some small losses. However, Frederick did not expect that the Tang people would be so arrogant and would openly invade East Luzon and act as if he would forcibly occupy the East Luzon area. This indeed caught Frederick off guard.

In the East Luzon, the actual economic value is not great, with slopes and hills as the main ones, mixed with some flat land and valleys called dams, and the population is quite sparse. It turns out that the central government of Luzon did not pay much attention to this land. In fact, the Gaoyue people lived on this land. Later, even a considerable number of Gaoyue people slowly moved to the mainland of Vito or the Tanghe Empire. The population of this land seemed even smaller. Except for some Gaoyue people who were unwilling to move away and a very small number of Andeans, almost no one lived in this area.

There is no need to look at the map anymore. Frederick, the more decent place name on the land of East Luzon, could almost recite it. Kuiyangba is a very suitable place. I had ignored this at the beginning. If I could build a fortress here earlier, maybe...

Thinking of this, Frederick shook his head again. What if he built a fortress? Kuiyangba is too far from Manlong. If the Tang people wanted to take this land, even if the fortress was built on Kuiyangba, it would only be a wedding dress for the Tang people. In front of the superior enemy, no matter how strong the fortress was, it would not take long. Everyone knew this.

But now the Tang people occupied the line of Kuiyangba and looked at Manlong and Robin in the west with a downward view, which put Manlong and Robin at a disadvantage on the terrain. Although there is no decent road between Kuiyangba and Manlong or Robin, this terrain advantage is meaningless, but there is always an indescribable pressure in people's mind, just like the enemy will rush down and rush into the city at once. In fact, there is no more than three days of march from Kuiyangba to Manlong, and it is impossible to reach it at all. It is already quite fast to reach Robin even further to five days.

Now is not the time to consider the psychological concerns of Robin and the people of Manlong. How to cut off this troubled fungus is what we need to consider now. Sending reinforcements to send a more flexible young general to serve as the guard of Manlong may be a good choice, but another condition must be met, that is, stability, and generals with both conditions seem to be difficult to find. Kroof is naturally competent for this position, but the Southern Indian and Germans need him to take charge, especially when the Tang people were also full of interest in this land.

But he still had to take charge of Aslan. Although the Comineans had already tamed and surrendered on the surface, Frederick knew that this was just a temporary calm and had not been digested for a long time. This place was still a high-risk area. Once there was a stir, Frederick himself was not sure whether the people here would be in a rush.

It is a suitable candidate for this item. Although Hilliard can only be maintained for the time being, this indicates that the crisis is coming.

The annexation of Cominei certainly increased the strength of the Luzon Kingdom, but it was not so easy to completely digest it. This also caused more concerns from the surrounding powerful neighbors. They would definitely not be willing to see the Luzon Kingdom's national strength reach a higher level, and would definitely find ways to stop Luzon's strength. All kinds of methods may be used in this period. Isn't the Andean Corps operating in Pamir like this? Frederick always suspected that the intelligence department obtained a few days ago about the hidden rebel forces in Cominei coming from Pamir, and the Tang people and the so-called Andean Corps are undoubtedly the backing of these rebel forces.
