Chapter 270(2/2)
This is also easy to understand.
If the Eastern Alliance does not go to Gal, the one you can choose is Visa Kapa.
Simply put, it is to echo the actions of attacking Varodarda and on the side of the Narmada River. If the Eastern coalition forces landed on the estuary of the Godavari River and attacked the inland along the Godavari River, they could cooperate with the offensive in the north and implement a strategic cutting of the southern region.
By then, most states in the southern region, especially those in the southernmost states, will surely seek independence.
From a strategic perspective, the Eastern Alliance can also rely on Slan to steadily control the southern part of the Varo Kingdom, ensuring the fruit of victory that can be swallowed.
On the tactical level, it is relatively easy to attack Visa Capa.
Not to mention anything else, the sea route from Slan to the front line can be shortened by thousands of kilometers, which means that the time for transport ships to travel can be reduced by half.
Obviously, it is a great thing to shorten the shipping time by half during high-intensity landing operations.
The key is that no matter how powerful a navy is, it is impossible to send all landing troops, weapons, equipment and combat materials to Shanghai at one time. Even if there are enough transport ships, they will not work at the tactical level. Therefore, landing operations are divided into waves, and troops, equipment and supplies to Shanghai in batches. This requires transport ships to travel back and forth between the landing ground and the rear port, and the round-trip sailing time determines the frequency of the troops being sent. If the delivery speed is not fast enough, the ground battle after landing will inevitably be affected.
If you want to say it, this is also the number one problem that landed in Gal.
The distance is too far!
From Slan to Gal, the shortest routes are about 1,800 kilometers. If you want to avoid the Vanluo Air Force and move in the near-shore small ships that are hard to defend against, the route will be increased to 2,400 kilometers. Even for landing ships, it will take 5 days to sail round-trip. If you change to a slower civilian ship, it will take at least 7 days. If you are in Visa Kapa, the round-trip time can be shortened to 3 and 4 days.
As for other ports, they are not close to Gal.
For example, the ports in Myanmar, especially the deep-water port, have a flight from more than 1,000 kilometers to Gal.
However, at that time, the farther delivery distance was not the most serious problem.
