When Lin Ziran was having a headache in the back to solve the military expenses, the fighting in various parts of the front line did not stop.

Guang'an City on the northern front, since the first wave of enemy attacks was repulsed, the troops of Quyang Prefecture did not launch an attack for several days, and the defensive intensity in the direction of Guang'an City was beyond the expectations of the Quyang Prefecture army.

On the northwest front, the enemy forces in the direction of Zhongluoju continued to advance, and the forward troops of both sides engaged in frequent battles with cavalry, but the current enemy forces in this direction were not large, and the forces of the two sides were mainly cavalry, so the battle situation was relatively stable in a short period of time.

On the eastern front, the defense line of the Hetai Heights, the Southern Navy firmly held the Hetai Heights, and Yuan Yonghan's offensive troops also suffered the same troubles as the Quyangzhou army, that is, although the battle situation had a superiority in strength, the Southern Navy's defensive combat capability surpassed them, so that it was unable to overcome the defense line.

On the Western Front, it's about the same.

Of course, the reason why the enemy forces in these four directions have not been able to tear through the defense line of the South China Navy is not only because of the South Navy's excellent defensive combat capability, but also because they are unwilling to fight hard, and they all know that they are not the only ones who are fighting the South China Navy.

In case they fight to the death on their side and lose a lot of troops, the others are sitting and watching the show, and they don't want to suffer.

After they lost a lot of troops, even if they defeated the Southern Navy, they wouldn't do this kind of thing if they hadn't been picked by other feudal towns.

Therefore, as soon as they heard that the other defense lines had not been broken through, these feudal towns also invariably stopped the pace of attack, always thinking that they should not go first.

They knew that Lin Ziran still had a large number of strategic reserves in the Liangluo area, and they knew with their toes that once the war in a certain direction became tight, then these strategic reserves would be transferred to.

What they wanted was definitely for others to attract Lin Ziran's main force, and then they themselves faced a little pressure, and finally drove straight in.

The enemy forces in these four directions have their own plans and have their own plans, which also gives the South China Navy a chance to breathe.

Originally, Lin Ziran thought that several fronts would face a crisis in a short period of time, especially the northern front area was even more dangerous, and even he considered taking the initiative to abandon Guang'an and Hexi counties, and the northern front fully retreated to Luohai County, relying on the defense line in the direction of Chongguangcheng and the northwest hilly area to block the enemy.

But what I didn't expect was that after three or five days passed, the front line reported that everything was stable, and Guang'an City was as stable as Mount Tai!

At this time, Wu Guanlin and others from the General Staff Office also sensed the opportunity.

"Now the enemy forces on the four fronts seem to be unwilling to attack our army's positions on a large scale, whether it is the northern front, the eastern front or the western front, such a situation has occurred!"

Wu Guanlin pointed to the military map and said: "In this case, we can take advantage of the contradictions between them and choose to break them one by one!" ”

"At present, we have three main divisions, three newly integrated divisions, two cavalry divisions and three strategic reserves of heavy artillery regiments in the Liangluo area and Anlong County."

"If we send a part of it to strengthen one of the fronts, then we can gain the advantage of troops, and then launch a counteroffensive, as long as we move quickly enough, we can concentrate our forces to defeat the enemy forces in a certain direction before the enemy forces on other fronts react, and then quickly return to other fronts!"

"As long as we can defeat the enemy forces in one direction, then the strategic crisis of our enemies on all sides can be alleviated, and if we can defeat the enemy forces in two directions, then at that time, I am afraid that it will not be that we are facing a crisis, but that they are thinking about how to escape!"

For Wu Guanlin's proposal, Lin Ziran was very interested.

But Lin Ziran's perspective is not purely a military perspective, but more of an economic perspective.

Now that the financial system of the Nanhai Prefecture is facing a complete collapse, it is now relying on the issuance of additional paper money, patchwork and other means to maintain it, and even the salaries of officials have been suspended.

However, the war on the fourth front is still fighting, and according to the current situation, it will not end in a short time, and during this period, small-scale battles have broken out every day, and the military expenditure is extremely high.

If this continues, without the enemy forces coming from all sides, the finances of Nanhai Prefecture will collapse first.

If the finances collapse, you still have a fart, and you don't need others to beat you, you have to finish it first.

Therefore, even if the fourth front is stable, Lin Ziran will not allow the war to continue to drag on and become a war of attrition.

The current situation of war of attrition must be put to an end as soon as possible.

After thinking deeply, Lin Ziran set his eyes on the map.

If you want to choose a direction to actively counterattack, then there are many things to consider.

One of the most important is the terrain and transportation.

If you choose to attack the northern front, there is the main artery of the Luo River, and the troops can travel very quickly by boat, and it will not take a few days to transport tens of thousands of people to fight a battle, and then transport them back.

If the hundreds of thousands of troops in Quyang Prefecture can be defeated in the area of the Guang'an Plain and the Luohe Gorge can be recaptured, then the northern front can be completely stabilized, and then the troops can be redeployed to defend again.

Of course, there are more than 100,000 enemy troops on the northern front, and it will be a bit difficult to defeat them for a while.

As for the eastern front, with the defensive capability of the Hetai Heights defensive line, plus two infantry divisions and three cavalry divisions, even if Yuan Yonghan launched an all-out attack, he could hold it for a while.

On the other hand, if the Southern Navy were to launch an attack in this direction, it would be relatively difficult, and it could be said that it would not be much easier than it was to overcome the defense line of Chongguangcheng at the beginning.

At the beginning, the Southern Navy took the defense line of Chongguangcheng, purely relying on heavy artillery bombardment, bombarding with shells regardless of the cost, and finally took Chongguangcheng.

The Hetai Heights Defense Line, which is the main contention between Nanhai Prefecture and Dongding Prefecture since the beginning of the Duke Meng's era, both sides have built a large number of permanent fortifications in this area, and what really fights is actually more difficult to fight than the defense line of Daguangcheng.

But on the western front, there is no such good defensive terrain, and if the enemy army is ruthless, he can even bypass the defense line of the sixth division and kill directly to Luohai City.

But on the other hand, there is no good traffic in this place, and there are no rivers in this direction that can be navigated by large-tonnage ships, and the march can only be carried out on two legs, and the speed is slow.

As for the northwest, although it is also important, the location is relatively special, and the strategic position is relatively not very important, if the situation is not good, it can even directly abandon the entire Hexi army.

The core area of the Southern Navy is the Liangluo region.

This is also the essence of Nanhai Prefecture, to put it mildly, in fact, as long as the Liangluo area is not lost, it will not have much impact if other places are lost.

After pondering the map for a long time, Lin Ziran finally set his eyes on Guang'an City on the northern line!

It will not work to continue to drag on, and if you want to fight back, then the northern front is the best option.

Now the enemy army has already run to the city of Guang'an, and has put on a posture of attacking Guang'an City.

However, this also means that the enemy army is already in the Gwangan Plain, a place with an unobstructed view!

If they face the counterattack of the Southern Navy, there is no danger to defend at all!
