Zhuge Jin's personality is a conservative person. He knows very well that with the current combat effectiveness of the Han Dynasty on the Malay Peninsula, it is very difficult to fight the Kushan navy in Malacca.

Selyan's arrival cleared the scum in the navy, successfully purged the entire navy from top to bottom, and successfully exerted the combat effectiveness of the Kushan Navy, while cooperating with such a sea-stabilizing needle to take charge, victory is actually very difficult.

In addition, Kushan received shipbuilding materials of "unknown origin". Although these materials could not be made into large ships in a short period of time, even using some of them to reinforce Selyan's sea fortress would cause considerable trouble to the Han Dynasty.

Although the mobility of the sea fortress is garbage, Selian, who lives in Malacca, does not need much mobility. It only needs to be able to curb the military force of the Han army.

Under such conditions, Zhuge Jin thought that it would be more realistic, and put his goal on Ye Dingguo, took down Ye Ding, and then reproduced the strategic intention of attacking the north and south.

"It's very difficult. Selian has a strong military ability. After the previous wave of war, all the young and strong men in Ye Diaoguo were incorporated into the Servant Legion by the other side." Zhou Yu shook his head and said.

The Han Dynasty, which originally occupied the righteousness of liberation of Ye Diao Kingdom, took the documents of the king of Ye Diao Kingdom to join the Han Dynasty and became a marquis, and was an unjust army that incited Ye Diao people to fight against the Kushan.

The Han Dynasty, which was a big banner that silenced the people and punished the crimes, was able to gain a foothold in the early days of this war. After Selian removed the scum of the army and optimized the previous rule plan through Masinde, it was unlikely that the Han army would continue to hold high the banner of silenced the people and punished the crimes.

Ma Xinde's notice to Ye Ji's people was 10 taxes and 3, and then asked Ye Ji's nobles to be evil, and then took half of the taxes from Ye Ji's nobles.

This method of transfer makes Kushan look less dark, which is also the reason why it can support Qianfan Navy. After all, Kushan is currently short of ships and is unlikely to transport grain by sea. Collection of grain from the local area is a very important operation.

However, this action gave Sun Ce and others a chance. With his domineering aura and all kinds of bizarre luck, Sun Ce successfully incited the people of Ye Diao to overthrow the Ye Diao nobles.

This is also when Zhou Yu sent Li Yan, Wen Pin and others to land in Ye Diaoguo, preparing to kill the Ye Diao nobles when the people were available and take full control of Sumatra Island.

This is a very good plan, because Sumatra is large enough, with enough output, and the terrain is quite complicated. As long as Li Yan and Wenpin's legion can capture the hearts of the people, they can stand firm in Sumatra. As long as they stand firm there, the Han army will be equivalent to attacking Malacca from the north and the south at the same time.

In the end, this strategy failed. Zhou Yu desperately led Selyan away. Sun Ce led Gan Ning and Taishici to successfully take down the north side of Malacca, but Nan'an's plan to take down Sumatra failed.

After Meng Kangbu and others ate Sun Ce's flash bomb, Ma Xinde guessed what the Han army wanted to do, and decisively crossed south to Sumatra, and then did the same thing as the Han army, and it was even more outstanding than the Han army!

After all, Ye Diao Guoju is attached to the country. Even if the Ye Diao nobles are animals, the Han army must follow the process if they want to take action. If they don’t follow the process, they must try to be more secretive and try not to make a statement as much as possible. However, Ma Xinde doesn’t care about these things anymore.

After Ma Xinde came, he directly told the people of Ye Diao that the Kushans had a list of ten taxes and three, and that it was your Ye Diao nobles who had trashed them, and they turned into ten taxes and seven taxes and even nine taxes. How could we, Kushans tolerate such people and directly break up the door to deal with Ye Diao nobles.

After all, Kushan had been in Malacca for several years, and Ye Diaoguo had been infiltrated. After Masinde made the plan, he directly ordered Monkamp and others to implement it.

To be honest, Mengkangbu was unwilling to implement this plan, but in addition to Mengkangbu, there were also Aruno and Annar and others who retreated from the North Bank. In addition, Aruno was the deputy general of Selian and was willing to obey Masinde's instructions. Although Mengkangbu was a little reluctant, he did not have any conflicts with Aruno and others, so the order was finally executed.

As for the original plan of Sellian to disgust the Han Dynasty with the method of ten taxes and one tax, Masinde did not implement it at all. He hanged the Ye Diao nobles in front of the people in the most efficient way, and then distributed the fields and grain to the people of Ye Diao.

And once again, he posted a list saying that it was 10 taxes and three, and ordered all the people to remember that whoever collected more than this tax would notify them of the Kushan army, and one would kill the other.

Because Masinde did too quickly and in place, he dragged the Ye Diao nobles out to hang them in front of the people, and then distributed the fields and grains, and released the results to the people, so that Kushan's reputation seemed to have rebounded to a certain level.

In addition, most people in this era have no national concept, so paying taxes to whom is not tax. Masinde's quick knife to cut the mess successfully stabilized the credibility of the Kushan people in Ye Diao's hearts. After all, if the food is divided and the field is divided, you still have to believe it.

Even if you are suspicious, you will only doubt it when you collect food in the next wave.

This trick is called using corrupt officials to make money, enrich the treasury, kill corrupt officials after use, calm the anger of the people, and win the hearts of the people. Not to mention that the people of Ye Diao have never seen this way of playing. Even if it has been repeated many times in history, this trick is still a supreme weapon.

As a result, Zhou Yu has no black materials to be played. Although Li Yan and Wen Pin can fight, they can only shrink to the point where they already have the advantage when facing a human offensive like Ma Xinde. As for completely winning Ye Tuo, it is obviously not an opportunity.

It was even more troublesome after that. Sumatra has a tropical and marine climate, and it has matured three times a year. Mashinde built up credibility by stabilizing tax revenue and successfully broke the Ye Dian into two parts with the Han Dynasty. Yes, this country split after the collapse of the nobles.

Masinde and Zhou Yu both relied on their own advantages to establish their own credibility on Sumatra, and both sides missed the opportunity to kill each other.

So much so that the Kushans have a headache in the south and north, and the Han Dynasty cannot cooperate perfectly in the situation in the north and south, and it cannot be used to lay the foundation for victory.

Both sides feel uncomfortable, but both sides can barely accept this situation. In the current situation, either side crossing that line will cause a decisive battle.

This is why Zhuge Jin advised Zhou Yu not to play so much and take down Sumatra first, because the Kushan naval food and grass in Malacca are currently based on Sumatra, and the staple foods are bananas, rice and sea fish.

To be honest, this food is very high-end in the Central Plains. However, how to say it, if it is put here, it is garbage. There are many wild bananas here. The rice is ripe three times a year, which is not a problem at all. The sea fish only depends on the fishing level. As the Indian Ocean’s channel to the Pacific Ocean and the local climate, Malacca itself has large fishing grounds.

It can be said that except for sea fish, the other two logistics come from Sumatra. After occupying Sumatra, the only choice of the Kushan Navy is to replenish supplies from the local area. Not to mention the difficulty of this kind of supply, we only discuss one thing, that is, ships.

Maritime logistics also requires ships. With the current size of the Kushan Navy, if you want to transport food and grass from the local area, you may need a small fleet.

Considering that the middle and lower reaches of the Ganges have been taken down by the Han Dynasty and the shipyard has started construction, the guy with a privateer will not care whether he is a pirate or a bandit. Therefore, if he really wants to transport food and grass like this, Selyan may have to invest in an escort fleet.

This greatly weakens the Kushan Navy in Malacca to a great extent, which is conducive to the advancement of the next plan. As for head-on battles, to be honest, Zhuge Jin is really not optimistic.

Zhou Yu's intention was very clear. Ye Dingguo was not unable to fight, but whether he could fight could be defeated. The level of Mashinde's talent made Zhou Yu feel a headache. The military garrisons of the Han Dynasty were also being carried out along the northwest coast of Sumatra, which belongs to Kushan.

What is even more extreme than the Han army is that Ma Xinde really did it to arm all the young and strong, and then rely on false propaganda to make Ye Diaoqing regard the Han army as the enemy.

This method may be exposed, but Ma Xinde clearly holds the evil idea that I will not lose if I die. From a certain perspective, this guy is doing a bad guy thoroughly. After no longer being bound by ideas, threats and constraints will no longer exist.

After all, Zhou Yu is still young and has a relatively positive outlook on his three views, so he really can't do such things.

Because if Zhou Yu did this, the young and strong Ye Diaoguo would undoubtedly be wiped out in the end, and the opposition would be established, and with the war, it would turn into blood feud. Even if he was once a countryman, he would have to be killed.

Therefore, Zhou Yu was wondering if there was any clever way to get around. Sumatra could help, but if he really wanted to seize Sumatra, with Mashind's shameless style, it would probably be not a battle, but a massacre.

Massacre will accumulate considerable psychological pressure. As the saying goes, it is fine to kill enemies on purely the battlefield, but large-scale massacres and species similar to those of themselves are likely to have psychological illnesses. With the current situation of the legion, after psychological problems occur, combat effectiveness will also occur.

Therefore, Zhou Yu can accept Sumatra as the battlefield, but it is impossible to use Sumatra as the breakthrough point. With Zhou Yu’s current understanding of Ma Xinde, that guy really doesn’t mind Ye Diaoguo’s blood flowing cleanly.

Zhou Yu is still quite taboo about this. To destroy a country is to destroy a country. If there are not even a few living people after fighting this country, Zhou Yu feels that he still can't do it.
