Kryuger was startled and said urgently: "General Zhang, are you joking?" Start a war from here? That would push Eswatini to the side of the Zulu Kingdom, these natives are not easy to mess with, one is tougher than the other, and they are not afraid of death when they fight! ”

Zhang Hexiang glanced at Kryuger and replied lightly: "General Kryuger, so what?" We are not going to invade Eswatini, but to go to war with the Zulu Kingdom! Now it is very difficult for your country to accept the aid of our Chinese Empire, or to trade with the outside world, because you have no access to the sea, do you want to continue like this? Isn't it true that we are helping your country to become strong just to realize your dream of having access to the sea? Look at this location, it's only a hundred kilometers from the border of your country to the sea, if our march goes well, even in three days, we can control this area, and once we control this area, imagine that in the future you can have one or two seaports, what an exciting thing......"

"You—do you mean to take the northern part of the Zulu Kingdom and achieve permanent occupation?"

Kryuger asked in surprise, indeed, as early as a few months ago, Jiang Shenghua had proposed a similar idea to himself and Mr. President, and now, I didn't expect Zhang Hexiang to put it forward as well! It's just that having access to the sea is indeed the dream of the Boers, but this dream has never been included in the agenda of the German and Austrian Federal Republic, this is not a simple matter, not only will there be a war with the Zulu Kingdom, but also with the Portuguese colonists in the northwest and even Eswatini and other countries will have conflicts, I did not expect that this Zhang would solve the problem of access to the sea in one breath in this H war!

"Of course!"

Zhang Hexiang smiled: "Shouldn't we do this? Shenghua, tell me, how should this battle be deployed? ”

Jiang Shenghua was not polite, stood up straight, came to the front of the map, picked up the baton, and said: "Generals, please see, if I am the supreme commander of this war, first of all, I will give up the head-on decisive battle with the Zulus, regardless of whether I can defeat the Zulus, even if we can defeat the Zulus, even if we win a big victory, we have to go deep into the Zulu hinterland, it is also a very troublesome matter, the Zulus have tens of thousands of troops, and attacking from the hinterland means that we may face the threat of force from the south and northeast, on the territory of the Zulu Kingdom, The Zulus are also more familiar with the terrain than we are, and it's hard for us to have a complete advantage in battle.

"Second, since a head-on battle is not a wise move, how do you deploy it?"

Jiang Shenghua smiled. "Very simply, we are an elite, placed in Essomolo, relying on the strong city defense of Essomollo, here to withstand the attack of the main Zulu army, our main force to the north, quickly from Eswatini to our border to the north of the Zulu, under the reaction of the Zulu, in one fell swoop, control the northern area of the Zulu Kingdom, from the north of Richard's Bay to this Bangkokchi, that is, the southern tip of Mozambique, this area, must enter the control of the German and Austrian Defense Forces, I think the area of this area is not large, That is, 20,000 square kilometers, eat him in one go, and then master the two ports on the coastline, this will be the lifeline of the German and Austrian Federal Republic in the future, and it can be out of control anywhere, only these two areas can never be out of control! ”

Eto'o exclaimed: "Mr. Minister, you are not based on self-defense, but on the initiative, I am dripping, we are going to take the initiative?" ”

"Of course!"

Jiang Shenghua replied: "Why can't we take the initiative to beat others when we are only allowed to beat us?" Treat our friends as warm as the sun, but treat our enemies as merciless as fire! ”

"Are you sure, Mr. Minister? You know, when we plunder the territory of other countries, we will not only suffer from the constant resistance and sneak attacks of the Zulus, but also suffer from the pressure exerted on us by the British. In the end, under the strong blows of the British, our Boers suffered heavy casualties, and had to abandon Natalia and migrate inland, only to come to the Transvaal and Orange, if we seize the entrance to the sea of the Zulu Kingdom, then the British will definitely intervene against us with arms! ”

Eto'o asked.

Jiang Shenghua shook his head and said, "General Eto'o, you have to understand that even if we don't seize the entrance to the sea of the Zulu Kingdom, will the British settle down with us?" Why did they support the Zulu Kingdom? Isn't it going to follow the Zulu kingdom to suppress you? That's because now the British can't spare their hands in Europe, they have to rely on the strength of others, once Europe is calm, they will be even more unkind to you, and when the time comes, even if you don't grab the seaport of the Zulu Kingdom, they will still defeat you, and then re-split the German and Austrian Federal Republic into two countries, because the united Boers are too strong, and the Boers united with the blacks will be even stronger, which the British absolutely cannot tolerate! ”

"Well said!"

Jiang Shenghua had just finished speaking, and Martinas' voice sounded outside the door. I saw Martinas kicking in and out of the door, and just walked in.

Martinas exclaimed: "Mr. Minister is very right, the British will never let us go because we don't go to the sea, their goal is to keep the Boers weak and make the Boers their slaves!" Krueger, Eto'o, I think the Minister is right, we need to take our access to the sea in one fell swoop when the British don't have the energy to take care of Africa, so that our resources and goods can be shipped out for trade, and only then can we get the aid that the Chinese Empire and even other allies have given me! This is a thousand plans, we will do everything to occupy the Zulu kingdom in the north and occupy the sea mouth! ”

"Well, Martinas, I agree with you!"

Kryuger said in a deep voice, "It's just that if we want to capture the area of the Zulu Kingdom in the north, it will require a large number of troops, and I think we have to complete the frontal defense and occupy the territory of the Zulu Kingdom, and at the same time face possible threats in other directions, and we may not have enough troops now......"

"Who's to say it's not enough?"

Zhang Hexiang on the side said proudly: "General Kryuger, you also underestimate the soldiers under your command, I believe that they will complete the task assigned to them by Mr. President and you!" (To be continued.) )
