The opinion of the National Security Committee is more consistent with that of Bai Nan, and it is inclined to the second option, that is, the main dòng sends troops. Although this means that Datang will continue to invest in the next war after one war, and invest more logistical resources in the Far East, this investment Datang can still afford it, and the return after that is definitely worth it.

Although Vietnam's social and economic devastation was severe due to years of war, it also coincided with the Tang people reorganizing local production and investing in infrastructure to further reap the benefits of the local economy. Of course, in the short term, Vietnam is also a money pit, but in the long run, whether it is a strategic location or economic returns, it can bring enough to Datang.

In the end, Zhao Daling also decided to implement the second set of plans, which would be presided over by the Far Eastern Theater and launch an operation against the Xishan Dynasty in Vietnam. Because the Far Eastern Theater is adjacent to many areas where conflicts may break out, and because of the vast scope of garrison, a considerable amount of military supplies are stored in the bases of the Far Eastern Theater. The war between the Qing State and the Tang Dynasty may break out at any time, because no one knows which tendon of the Qing people will suddenly plan to attack the Tang army when they make a mistake, so the Tang army stationed in the Qing Dynasty can only be ready at all times, and the Qing army's Guan xì is also an enemy and a friend.

During last year's Gurkha War and the expedition to the Philippines at the beginning of the year, Datang had already mobilized tens of thousands of troops in the theater of operations, and used fleets for transportation, and also consumed thousands of tons of various materials. Of course, this will consume the inventory of Datang's combat readiness warehouse to a certain extent, but there is still not much problem in launching a war against Vietnam with a scale of more than 20,000 people. After all, at the same time, the replenishment of materials transferred from the local area is also in place.

The Ministry of Defense also quickly made plans to send troops. The Yamato Corps in Southeast Asia is planned to have three brigades. A brigade of the Siamese Corps. and a regiment of the Chenla Corps, which was to attack the Gia Dinh area in southern Vietnam, the area defended by Nguyen Lạc from the direction of Cambodia. The regular units of the Don Army, the 5th and 6th Brigades, each with a regiment, plus the 1st Marine Regiment, consisting of about five thousand troops, will land in the Bac Ha area (northern Vietnam). The goal was to seize Thang Long Province, the core area of northern Vietnamese rule.

In fact, the troops in the hands of Ruan Hui, who ruled Bac Ha, were more gunshot, and Ruan Yue was second, and Ruan Lu was the worst, but in Jiading, which Ruan Lu occupied, Datang sent the most troops. And in North Vietnam, only about 5,000 troops of the regular army of the Don Army were used. This also reflects the trust of the General Staff Headquarters of the Ministry of National Defense in the combat power of the regular army of the Tang Dynasty, although the number is quite inferior to that of Ruan Hui's army, but the firepower of this Tang army is also much stronger than that of Ruan Hui.

Vietnam's water network is dense, and the Tang Navy can provide a bad help to the army in combat, although some sections of the Red River, which flows through Thang Long, are relatively shallow. It is not suitable for cruisers with a deeper draft, but there are only frigates of one or two thousand tons. It can still be used in the river. In addition, the Datang Navy also has a large number of gunboats, this kind of small gunboats with a tonnage of several hundred tons, can easily act in shallow water, and some gunboats are also specifically aimed at the operational needs of fire support, enhancing their own firepower, the Datang Navy in Hong Kong has four gunboats with a displacement of more than 200 tons, equipped with a 155 mm naval gun, such gunboats with shallow draft, can move freely in the river, and provide fire support for the Datang ground forces.

Bai Nan no longer did too specific interference and guidance on how the Tang Army would fight this war, and the General Staff Headquarters of the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff of various theaters had done a lot of such things, and they were very familiar with it. Paiknam trusted the elite of the army to come up with a detailed and feasible battle plan.

“…… Our troops will bypass Halong Bay and land in two directions south of the mouth of the Red River. The Xishan Army does not attach enough importance to coastal defense, and it mainly relies on pirate ships, and the navy will clear the coastline in the north in advance to strike at the pirate forces that may pose a threat to our army's landing, and after ensuring sea supremacy, our army will officially launch a landing. After the successful landing, our army will immediately move towards Thang Long and organize the repulsion of any enemy who stands in the way of our army, and it is expected that in 24 hours, the whole army will reach the periphery of Thang Long and launch a siege operation against Thang Long. Assistant Qi Yuan read the general battle plan from the Ministry of National Defense to Bai Nan, and he was meticulous.

This battle plan is flat and stable, and there is nothing brilliant about it, Bai Nam is clear that the main force of the Tay Son Army mainly follows Nguyen Hue in Phu Xuan, and there is also his garrison in the Thang Long area, but Hòu is the troops displayed on the border of the Qing State, but relatively speaking, the force to defend the coastline is relatively small. Bai Nam believed that with the quality and combat capability of the Tang Army, it could easily advance to Thang Long in one day, and the Xishan Army should not have made any effective response at this time.

In the capital incident, the Tang army also used a very fast forced march to directly catch the Qing army by surprise and besiege the city of Beijing.

"The southern front will take the 7th Brigade of the Yamato Corps as the vanguard, starting from Svay Rieng, the overseas consul of Chenla, and raid Gia Dinh to the east, and the 2nd Brigade of the Yamato Corps will attack Tay Ninh on the other route, and after clearing the enemy forces in southern Vietnam, the Southern Front Army will continue to advance northward, aiming at Quy Nhon, the capital of Nguyen Ngak. After the capture of Quy Nhhon, the southern front will seek to join forces with the northern front in the Phu Xuan area and launch a final decisive battle against Nguyen Hue's troops. ”

Bai Nan nodded and commented: "Our troops on the northern front are still a little small, although it is already a brigade-sized force, but if we really fight, we will not only face tens of thousands of troops of the Xishan Army, but also after capturing some strongholds, we have to divide our troops to defend, and the northern front army still needs to continue to advance southward, seeking to converge with our friendly forces on the southern front, so that even if there is no battle damage, the actual northern front army is fighting less and less." ”

Qi Yuan explained: "Yes, this point has been examined by the General Staff Headquarters, so the General Staff Headquarters only lists a few strongholds that need to be defended, and at the same time, it also requires our army to actively mobilize local resistance forces after capturing the Beihe area, such as the old troops of the Zheng Lord, the old troops loyal to the Later Li Dynasty, and the landlord forces who are dissatisfied with the Xishan Army, and organize them into temporary servant armies, mainly to assist us in guarding some of the Guanjiàn strongholds, and also to undertake some engineering and auxiliary tasks. ”

Bai Nan said with a smile: "This test is still very good, it seems that the Military Intelligence Department has been sure to win over some local forces, which will not only be beneficial to our operations, but also extremely helpful for the future governance of Vietnam." (To be continued.) )
