Soon after, the celebration banquet ended, and the next morning, Kryuger summoned the three division commanders and the instructor corps of Zhang Hexiang and Jiang Shenghua to attend a military meeting to discuss military deployment. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Kalius, several generals of the Huaxia Empire are not very familiar with the situation in the Zulu Kingdom, you can introduce it to you!"

After everyone was seated, Krugel said in a deep voice.

The commander of the first division, Kalius, stood up and said in a deep voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Zulu Kingdom now has a total territory of 120,000 square kilometers, located in the southeast of the German and Austrian Federal Republic, surrounded by the sea on one side, with a coastline of more than 600 kilometers, and now the Zulu Kingdom has a population of more than three million people, and the Zulu people will become an age group at any time, and they may be drawn out to form an army at any time, and the fierce Zulu people are born warriors, born to fight, these people are very strong, but, Now their country should have a regular army of about 50,000 people, which is slightly stronger than our current strength, but they face the sea, and at the same time reconcile with the British and form an alliance, so now they basically only need to consider the defense problem in one direction, now the Zulus have at least 20,000 deployed in the northwest region, and there may be a conflict with us at any time, and the 10,000 troops in the south are being mobilized, I think, if the Zulus are going to go to war, they will definitely launch a general attack on us from the northwest, It was at least 30,000 troops who went to war, and as for whether the troops from other directions would gather in the northwest direction, we still can't tell. And we need to keep our troops in four directions, which will make our mobile forces much less than our opponents......"

Kryugel smiled: "Okay, Kalius has made a brief introduction, that is to say, the Zulus may send no less than 30,000 troops to attack us, and in this war, we can mobilize a total of only four brigades, 20,000 people, there is no doubt that in terms of troops, we are at an absolute disadvantage, what do you three think......"

Kalius said in a deep voice: "General Kryuger, I think this time, it is better for our first division to be in charge of this battle, the 30,000 people who defeated the Zulus dare not say, but it is guaranteed to be undefeated, and there is no problem in stopping the 30,000 Zulus outside the country, if the general can support our two brigades, I think, it should be 9 out of 10 to defeat the opponent!" ”

Krugel didn't speak, looked at Eto'o, the commander of the second division, and said with a smile: "Eto'o, what do you think?" ”

Eto'o shook his head and replied: "General Kryuger, this battle is very important, I think that our goal should not be to win a decisive victory, but to use this battle to hone our army, I suggest that the three divisions take turns to fight, with this battle, hone the actual combat level of our army, and finally concentrate the strength of six brigades, with a crushing posture, directly defeat the opponent!" I suppose that with our current level of equipment, there should be no problem in defeating the Zulu army! ”

The two division commanders were full of confidence, and both believed that this battle would be won.

Krugel said in a deep voice: "Eto'o, then you said that six brigades of troops were sent to the battle, and the number of troops participating in the battle even exceeded that of the Zulus, do you think that we have mobilized such a large number of troops, and the defense forces in other directions are enough?" ”

Eto'o smiled: "General, what's not enough, unless it is inevitable that the British will attack us, the armies of other countries in other directions are not sure enough to defeat us, and the relationship with us is not bad, it is in peacetime, we will transfer some of the troops, I don't think there will be much problem, not to mention that there are soldiers in our territory who have just retired and joined the police sequence, and they can also be transferred back at any time and reorganized......"

"Then how do you fight?"

Kryugel asked.

Eto'o picked up the baton, pointed it on the map, and said in a deep voice: "General, you see, on the border of Dezu, the two areas that are most likely to start a war are these two areas, Esomolo and Dundee, these are the two most convenient ways for us and the Zulu Kingdom, among which Dundee has complex terrain, it is difficult to deploy troops here, no matter which side attacks, it will face huge problems, yes, Osomolo will be the most likely to break out in the direction of war!" This is our frontier castle and our strongest military stronghold to the east, and as long as we concentrate our forces here, the Zulus will not be able to set foot in Ethomolo! In less than two months, we will be able to repel the Zulu attack! ”

Krugel shook his head and replied, "Eto'o, what if, what if?" The Zulu people just sent a certain force to quickly pass through Dundee and detour directly behind us? You must know that these Zulus are walking through the mountains and mountains one by one, and the brothers are not an obstacle for them at all, and if they attack us from behind, then we will be in danger......"

Treser, the commander of the 3rd Division on the side, replied: "General Kryuger, I also think that the direction of the Zulu attack must be Essomolo, because now that the Zulus have artillery, their artillery is simply difficult to move in the direction of Dundee, so if the Zulus want to attack with all their might, then Essomolo must be the first to bear the brunt, as for the sneak attack you mentioned, there is a certain possibility, however, we only need to place two battalions of troops in the Alba Mountains in Dundee, and the Zulus will be able to rush through!" Esomolo is where we will fight! ”

"What about the north side?"

Jiang Shenghua on the side suddenly said, "What's the situation in the north, I see that the territory of the Zulu Kingdom extends to the northeast, a large piece of ......"

"That's right, Mr. Minister."

"To the north," replied Kryuger, "almost two thousand square kilometers of land surrounded by us and the Zulus, but this land does not belong to us Boers or Zulus, but to the indigenous peoples of the Eswatini Eswatini, and neither of our two countries wants to provoke them, while pushing Eswatini to the camp of the other, because the friction and fighting in the past have never been to that area......

Jiang Shenghua looked at this narrow strip and shook his head.

Zhang Hexiang also noticed this place, the border of the Transvaal is less than two hundred miles away from the sea, if it is by cavalry, it will take a day and a night to reach the sea!

"Never started a war in this area?"

Zhang Hexiang sneered: "General Kryuger, then this time we will start from here and provoke a war!" ”
