 Chapter 508508 Moving

On Long Island, Tang Mo, who had a small meeting with Nangong Hong and Roger, nodded and admitted his thoughts: "I am indeed transferring new industries to the hinterland of the kingdom."

"Compared with Bunas and Jade City, which have almost no strategic depth, Linshui and Tongcheng are obviously more suitable for me to increase investment." He did not hide it: "Bunas will no longer be a key area for my business in the future. One thing I’m very sure of.”

 Roger was a little unhappy, because Bunas was once the core industrial area of ​​Datang Group, and it also carried his most bitter and glorious memories.

Roger, who has been working hard in Bunas, still has a lot of affection for it. And he also regards it as his own foundation, and it is also the foundation of Datang Group.

Now Tang Mo has to abandon this foundation and shift his focus to Long Island, Linshui and other places, which makes Roger very uncomfortable.

Today's Roger is not only the prime minister, but also represents the interests of many people who followed Tang Mo in the early days and made their fortune from Bunas.

They were very worried that after Tang Mo returned to the Tang Kingdom, he would gradually abandon the old system and rely on those latecomers with dark eyes and black hair from the same clan.

Tang Mo also knew what Roger was thinking. It was not time for him to eat alone so that the whole family would not be hungry. There was a large group of people surrounding him, each of whom had their own ideas.

Roger on this side is worried about Bunas' future, while Nangonghong on the other side is refreshed.

In his opinion, as long as Tang Mo is willing to shift his focus, then he and the new forces he represents who have joined the Tang Kingdom will have hope.

“The strategic depth in Bunas is really a problem.” Tang Mo explained to Roger: “There is no way to expand the space there, so it is unsafe to place important facilities there.”

Although he is now relying on the more talented Nangong Hong, it does not mean that he trusts Nangong Hong. In fact, among Tang Mo's team, the people he trusted the most were still the old men brought out by Bunas.

 So, when Tang Mo made a decision that was unfavorable to Bunas, he would explain his intentions to Roger and reassure Roger.

"This melee within the Trade Alliance has exposed many problems. For example, our old friend Lions I obviously has some ideas of his own in his heart." Tang Mo pointed to his temple: "Obviously , he is already considering getting rid of our influence.”

"The Lions Empire is just a microcosm. In fact, Dorne, Sussus, and other countries have begun to try to get rid of our influence." Tang Mo said, and spread his hands helplessly: "In the past, when there was only Cyric, they didn't choice, so they can only endure it. Now that they have us, they are ready to drag their old mistress Cyric to weaken our influence. "

“Doesn’t that sound annoying?” Tang Mo laughed as he said it: “But it doesn’t matter, they won’t be able to get rid of us for a moment.”

Tang Mo still has this confidence. If the other party wants to take action against Bunas, he will definitely receive the news in advance. No matter how well the other party hides, they cannot escape his sight.

 It’s just that Bunas’s strategic depth is too small and there is no room for it. Therefore, it is impossible for Tang Mo to continue investing in such a place.

What's more, compared to our own territory, this is just a "rented land" after all, belonging to the Datang Group rather than the Datang Kingdom, so there are loopholes in the general sense.

　　Before, there was no choice. Tang Mo could only develop in Bunas. Now that he has his own territory and better choices, Tang Mo can no longer be nostalgic for Bunas.

 So, he looked at Roger and expressed his concerns: "But the problem is, it is not a good thing to have too deep a bond. If we can't protect our old friends, they will inadvertently have our ideas."

"Many countries have come to us to apply for loans." He lit a cigarette for himself when he said this: "If they don't want to pay back the money, or even want to get more benefits...attacking Bunas seems to be A better choice for them.”

In this melee, the Lions Empire unexpectedly formed an alliance with the Gobel Kingdom, which in itself was a wake-up call for Tang Mo.

 Several countries surrounding Bunas have actually begun attempts to get rid of the control of Datang Group.

For example, Susus attacked neighboring countries and expanded its territory, the Kingdom of Dorne declared war on the Goblins, and the Lions Empire formed an alliance with the Goblins. In fact, they had not discussed this series of actions with Tang Mo.

This uncontrollability forced Tang Mo to consider the safety of Bunas, so he took advantage of the situation and reduced his investment in Bunas.

Since new equipment can be placed anywhere, it might as well be placed in a safer Linshui Port or Copper City.

  After all, Linshui Port is protected by Dongwan Port outside and has a wide inland to rely on. The geographical advantage is obviously much better than Bunas. Roger is also a smoker now. When he saw Tang Mo lighting a cigarette, he knew that he could follow suit, so he quickly lit one as well.

"Then why don't we strengthen the defense of Bunas? The Tang Dynasty's army is invincible, and it is impossible for them to break through our defense line!" In the short silence, there was only the crisp sound of the lighter, and Roger, who lit the cigarette, was puzzled. Asked.

"Because the strategic depth is not enough! If I amassing a large army to try to protect Bunas, in the process of increasing troops, it will be tantamount to threatening all the surrounding countries! If I am accumulating heavy troops on the border, everyone will think that we are a threat!" Tang Mo continued to explain.

Tang Mo followed Nangong Hong's suggestion and expanded westward, with the intention of resolving the hostility of the surrounding forces. The Datang Group is too big and the threat is too great, which can easily arouse the suspicion of surrounding forces.

If the Tang Kingdom now sends troops unscrupulously to the territory of the Datang Group, it is tantamount to lifting its own fig leaf, nakedly mixing the Datang Group and the Datang Kingdom, which had finally seemed to be separated, together again.

 This is unfavorable to both Datang Group and Datang Kingdom, and it may not necessarily bring benefits.

Afraid that Roger would not understand this level, Tang Mo continued to say to him: "Of course, we can ignore other people's opinions and just arrange our own defense lines. But in fact, because of the distance, we The defense line is too close to Jade City itself!"

"The other side can threaten Yucheng's industrial zone with only heavy artillery. If they break through our defense line, we won't even have a chance to reorganize our defense line." Tang Mo held a cigarette between his fingers and spread his hands helplessly.

 Roger still seemed reluctant to give up on an already built and prosperous city like Bunas, and wanted to continue insisting: "No one will break through our defense line..."

"The war will be protracted! Prime Minister! By then we will have to fill the trenches with troops to consume. This is obviously not what we want to see." Tang Mo, the Nangong Hong Gang who couldn't stand it, continued to explain.

 He somewhat looked down on Roger's stubbornness, and felt that Roger was far inferior to him in terms of talent. But Roger is Tang Mo's confidant, and this position is probably one that no one can surpass.

 So, even though he somewhat despised Roger, he still spoke patiently, hoping to convince Roger.

Tang Mo also said from the side: "Moreover, the war will destroy all our industrial investment, and the lost factories will directly affect our war potential and weaken our production capacity."

"You know how many new weapons we have..." Roger still believed that with the advanced weapons and equipment of Datang Group, it shouldn't be a big problem to defend Bunas.

Tang Mo was a little embarrassed, because it was the new weapons and equipment he developed that made the strategic depth between Yucheng and Bunas completely negligible.

If it is purely infantry, then the distance between Yucheng and Bunas can be said to be very far, and the strategic depth is actually very sufficient.

But Tang Mo came up with tanks, trains and cars, and there were airships and planes in the sky. This suddenly made the strategic depth between Yucheng and Bunas a complete joke.

Therefore, Tang Mo could only continue to explain helplessly: "Yes, I know it. It is precisely because we know what the future war will look like in advance that we pay more attention to strategic depth. If we do not have enough strategic depth, then the enemy's The bombers could blow us up to nothing overnight."

Roger also knew that it was impossible for the Datang Group to never sell weapons such as airplanes. Once everyone had airplanes, the distance between Yucheng and Bunas would indeed be said to be insignificant.

 The flight range of planes taking off from the Lions Empire can completely cover Bunas. For Bunas, which is full of industrial areas, there is really not much time to react.

Just listen to Tang Mo continue to say at this time: "Our anti-aircraft guns can intercept the enemy's airship, but if the enemy has a plane, do we still have enough time to react? In more than an hour, two hours at most, the enemy's plane will We can reach Bunas. Will our factory be safe by then? "

Seeing that Roger was silent, Tang Mo continued to ask: "Even if we know that the enemy's plane is about to attack, do we have time to take off our own plane to intercept it?"

"This..." Roger actually understood Tang Mo's thoughts. What he was still struggling with now was just his feelings for Bunas.

Seeing that Roger was already shaken, Tang Mo continued to remind him: "Roger, now that we are the masters of a country, we should look at the problem from the perspective of the entire country. We can't just because we have feelings for Bunas. Blinded by emotion."

"Sir, I understand." Finally, Roger agreed with Tang Mo's choice and lowered his head to suppress his personal feelings for Bunas: "Sir, I will leave for Chang'an as soon as possible!"
