Section 1058 The situation
Dr2619-01-29,am3:42
In the abandoned fields, weeds grow.
Under the night, two black shadows rustled through the grass, hugged their waists, and climbed up to the roof of a farm tool house.
Due to the civil war, the nearby farmland has been abandoned for a whole year. Looking around, there are half-human-tall thatch everywhere, except for the farmhouses submerged in weeds and the broken tractors scattered everywhere.
It is difficult to tell that this was once one of the largest grain production bases in the Eastern Plain, the largest grain production base in the Red Clay continent.

"Night telescope."
"Give."
Taking the telescope from his companion's hand, the female scout in a camouflage uniform looked at the horizon in the distance.
The searchlights were straggling everywhere, and the roar of construction machinery was vaguely heard.
In the green night vision goggles, a large number of excavated machinery and workers wearing hard hats appeared.
"Oh my god, guess what I saw, Shamin is building fortifications!"
"Aren't they going to attack the Principality of Nice?"
"Maybe their purpose is not at all."
"Remove, report the situation to Shangfeng!"
"good!"
The two moved their bodies, slid down from the roof, and then hid in the half-man-high thatch, retreating to the rear.
Not long after the news from the front line came back, the commander-in-chief Bai Yefenghua of the Southern Commander and the commander-in-chief Lacey of the Northern Commander-in-chief returned to Sanchahe City and asked Chen Xing to discuss countermeasures.
Before the army could be deployed for a few days, the two supreme commanders left the team, but this was not because they were abandoned, but because the situation of the war had changed. It was thought that Qingguo and Sha would continue to attack, but the troops of the two countries stopped the offensive at the same time.
, the defense line was built on site, and there seemed to be no intention to continue to go deeper.
The locations where the two countries built defense lines were both hourglass-shaped strategic locations with wide mouths to narrow mouths.
This terrain is very beneficial to the defense, especially for large armies of millions. Simply put, narrow mouths are not conducive to the deployment and passage of large troops, while the defense occupies a wide terrain and can fully deploy troops, and
Fan-shaped firepower blocks the narrow mouth.
Usually, the offensive party needs to pay two or three times the price to break through the blockade.
But the hourglass-like strategic location is a double-edged sword, which means that no matter which side attacks, it will pay a heavy price.
The current situation is that Qingguo and Shaguo will hold the key narrow mouth and will no longer advance.
"Can you tell us why Ramsden suddenly expressed his support for you?" Lacey asked at Chen Xing.
"This..." Chen Xing hesitated for a moment and found that Bai Ye Fenghua was also looking at him, as if he was concerned about the answer.
"Actually, I wanted to ask before, but I just haven't had the right opportunity." Lacey paused and continued, "I heard that in the past few days, many of our sea-cargo merchant ships have been seized by the fleets of Qingguo or Shaguo.
Now.”
"What does it mean, I didn't understand." The amount of information was too large, and Chen Xing was a little confused.
"It seems that they are preparing to force us to go to the negotiating table." Bai Yefenghua said as she knocked on the table.
"I knew it was the result since they started building the fortifications." Laceyn's passage.
"Hey, you two..." Chen Xing looked at the two women, with a bad tone, "Is it because of their wings hard?"
The conversation between the two women was unclear, so he completely excluded him, which made him very upset.
"I don't dare." Bai Yefenghua quickly stood up to apologize. Lacey also stood up, bowed slightly, and apologized intently.
"The Qing Kingdom and Sha Kingdom build fortifications in order to fully block us."
"Including the seizure of merchant ships, it is also part of the blockade."
"Totally cut off our transportation channels." Bai Yefenghua explained.
"What's the point?" Chen Xing said in confusion. The Ambergris River Basin is known as the "dear of God". It has fertile land and rich resources. In addition to being self-sufficient, it can also export a lot of food and resources every year, and does not require imports from abroad at all.
“For the past year or so, we have been in a state of civil war, and many plantations have been affected and have been abandoned.”
"Since last June, we have all eaten strategic reserve grain."
"Once the lockdown is too long and there is no import of food from abroad, the Ambergris River will face a crisis of food shortage."
"The food problem is most likely to cause chaos among the people and the country."
"At that time, we will have to sit at the negotiating table and ask for peace from our enemies."
"Agree to ced the Taizera region and agree to a series of humiliating conditions such as the independence of the ten city-states."
Bai Yefenghua faced Chen Xing and said seriously, "The reason we want to know the purpose of Ramsden is because we all feel that Ramsden is making you take the blame."
"The leader who agrees to cede land will inevitably become a sinner for eternity."
"This..." Chen Xing hesitated for a long time. He had thought about Ramsden's purpose. Even though the other party was a respected guardian of the world, as long as the other party was an individual, he would have a purpose.
Ramsden once told him that humanity is facing a huge threat.
And what is this threat?
Chen Xing thought of two points about this.
One is the chaos caused by Sora.
But he felt that Sora's influence was limited to the Internet. Now that even Ming.com is disabled, what other waves can she make?
Second, there is no threat at all, but Ramsden is sympathetic to humanity.
You should know that the larger the scale of the war, the more people will die. Perhaps the guardian was compassionate and did not want to see the misery of living beings, so he asked him to end the war as soon as possible.
So far, these two points can be thought of.
If it is the second one, it is really possible. Ramsden wants to use him to promote peace negotiations and let the Red Kingdom swallow this mouthful.
Thinking of this, Chen Xing was so scared that he was so clever. He would never do such a thing.
Once he does it, he will not only end up as a stigma for the ages, but will also affect his descendants. He said that he will not go this way no matter what.
"Can't you break through?" Chen Xing asked.
Bai Yefenghua and Lacey looked at each other without saying a word.
The situation is obvious. Their troops are at a disadvantage and they have to rush towards the narrow mouth, which is simply unrealistic.
Chen Xing thought about it for a moment and then understood.
"Is this plan possible to let the East China Sea fleet of the Principal of Nice clear the sea routes and transport grain from abroad?" Chen Xing asked again.
Lacey rubbed her brows and said nothing.
Chen Xing suddenly had a bad premonition and asked Bai Ye Fenghua, "What's the situation?"
Bai Yefenghua sighed, "Since the Queen came to power, she has removed the budget of the East China Sea Fleet."
"It is said that in order to pay the salary, the fleet captain sold all the cannons..."
