This continent is still in an era of extremely underdeveloped sea power.

Every country on the continent, including the British Empire, valued the army over the Navy.

Although great powers close to the sea, such as the British Empire and the holy Helan Empire, have established naval forces, they have never paid attention to the construction of the Navy.

The total number of the navy of the British Empire was only 20000, which could not be compared with the army with millions of troops.

The 20000 navies of the British Empire had the usual task of beating pirates along the coast and escorting the envoys.

At the beginning of last year, the navy of the British Empire was responsible for escorting bancro to the Far East to discuss alliance with the Hungarians.

Limited by the limitations of the times, everyone did not realize the importance of the Navy and coastal defense.

After hearing that Su Cheng wanted to ask the Imperial Navy for help, Humphrey frowned:

"Navy?"

Humphrey was also one of the masses who could not see the usefulness of the Navy.

Humphrey really couldn't think of anything he could do to help these Marines who can only fight pirates on weekdays? And help them take the mujawitz fortress.

Others cannot see the importance of the Navy and coastal defense because of the limitations of the times, but Su Cheng is different.

Su Cheng had expected Humphrey to react like this, so he said positively again:

"I'm not kidding. I'm just going to ask the central dispatching navy to go north and help me take the mujawitz fortress."

After noticing that Su Cheng really didn't joke with him, Humphrey also put away his surprise and doubt and seriously asked:

"Your Excellency, how are you going to cooperate with the Imperial Navy so that the Michael knights can take muhavitz fortress?"

"It's simple. Just make a surprise attack across the sea! " Su Cheng said firmly.

"Cross the sea... Surprise attack?"

Su Cheng raised the Knight Sword in his hand, replaced the baton with the Knight Sword again, and pointed to the map.

"Mr Humphrey, please look."

"To the west of our britannian Empire and holy Hiran empire are adjacent to the sea."

"The battle plan I have drawn up is very simple, that is, to bypass the eghar mountains by sea, land at the clear water port of the Holy Hiran Empire, and then run all the way east along the north of the eghar mountains to win the muhavitz fortress in the north of the eghar corridor!"

"I intend to send 80000 people to complete this plan, leaving only 40000 people to stay at Avalon fortress."

"First let the Imperial Navy go north and station at [port Lott] in the west of the north."

"And 80000 of my knights quickly left Avalon fortress, marched quickly to port Lott and boarded the ships of the Imperial Navy."

"The 80000 people of our army escorted by the Imperial Navy went north along the coastline of our country and the Holy Hiran empire."

"Go straight to the [clear water port] at the southwest corner of the Holy Hiran empire!"

"The clear water port of the holy Hiram empire is one of the garrisons of the naval forces of the holy Hiram empire."

"There will definitely be the navy of the holy Hiram Empire stationed in the clear water port."

"At that time, the naval forces responsible for escorting 80000 troops of our Knights will need the fastest speed to raid and defeat the Helan naval forces of Bishui port! Create conditions for landing! "

"After the 80000 troops of my knights successfully landed in Bishui port, they will run all the way east along the north of the eghar corridor."

"The speed must be fast. We must catch up with the garrison of muhawitz fortress and the 30 Hiran troops in the eghar corridor. Before they react and know that their rear has been landed by our army, they must rush to the north of the eghar corridor and take the muhawitz fortress!"

"Because of this battle, we need to go around a big circle, from the Avalon fortress in the south of the eghar corridor to the muhawitz fortress in the north of the eghar corridor."

"So I named this battle - the great revolution of the north."

"Through a great turn, take the muhavitz fortress, an important town of the Holy Hiran Empire, and block the 300000 Hiran troops in the eghar corridor!"

After listening to Su Cheng's bold plan, Humphrey's eyes stared with shock.

Humphrey saw this kind of operation for the first time.

It is the first time to see such a battle that requires the joint efforts of the Navy and the army and the concerted efforts of the two armies.

At the same time, it is also the first time to see such a surprise attack on the enemy's rear by sea.

While Humphrey was still shocked, Su Cheng continued:

"The reason why I invited Mr. Humphrey you to Avalon fortress this time is to hope for your support."

"Such a large-scale operation can only be carried out with the support of the Central Committee."

"The central government needs to support me, be willing to transfer the Imperial Navy to participate in this operation, and build more troop carriers in order to make this operation successful."

"So - I hope Mr. Humphrey and I can write a joint letter to the Central Committee and ask the Central Committee to allow me to implement the 'great revolution of the North'!"

After that, Su Cheng took out a stack of paper.

On the top of this stack of paper, the words "the great revolution of the northern kingdom" are impressively written.

"I finished writing the general plan of this operation for your majesty and the central dignitaries to read and evaluate the feasibility all night last night. Now I only need a joint letter from you and me."

"With your support, Mr. Humphrey, it will undoubtedly greatly increase the possibility that the central government will agree to my operational plan."

"I want to start this battle! I want to take the mujawitz fortress and wipe out the 300000 Hiran army! So - Mr Humphrey, please help me! "

Su Cheng's words are sincere.

But Humphrey didn't immediately nod to Su Cheng's request.

Instead, he stroked the short beard on his chin and began to meditate.

It was not long before Humphrey said quietly:

"... Your Excellency, isn't it possible not to launch such a bold and risky battle?"

"Don't we just stick to Avalon fortress and don't let it be taken away by the Holy Hiran Empire?"

"As long as we stick to the fortress, the Holy Hiran empire will always retreat."

"Although this will not have too brilliant results, we will not have too many losses ourselves."

"Your battle does sound feasible. If you succeed, you will benefit immeasurably, but your battle plan is still too bold."

"Even I, who don't know much about the military, can see that your battle plan, your excellency, has many risks."

"Why should we give up the safe play and carry out such a bold battle?"

It can be seen from Humphrey's words and tone that Humphrey did not support Su Cheng's "northern revolution".

However -- as soon as Humphrey's voice fell, Su Cheng immediately replied without thinking:

"Mr. Humphrey, like a shrinking turtle, sticks to Avalon fortress until the Hiran army withdraws. Do you think that's good?"
