I'd like to present my novel new theory of warfare called Highway-centric operations for consideration as the 6th generation of warfare.

Life is a Highway!
Otherwise...
"So you're driving to Brasilia, huh?"
The sovereign autotomy strategy.
It's possible that, if anything, you're underestimating the stupid.
I'll be there when the light comes in, just tell 'em we're survivors
by my estimation this makes Britain unintentionally immune to invasion due to the M25
If the regime is popular or the rebels are feared, militia will appear to block the advance and cause friction until regular forces can consolidate.
Otherwise, TEMPO TEMPO TEMPO
(Apologies if it was tongue in cheek and I didn't pick up on it)
Grant, specifically, was good about *not* doing this. Guderian too.
At 23mins, David Kilcullen discusses Highway-centric warfare. Congratulations on your theory's acceptance into mainstream scholarship.

Keep driving, keep moving!
Amateurs talk tactics, armchair generals talk strategy and professionals talk logistics. Kinetic Lineas Warfare is a Supply Chain.
But it's too late, you crossed the finish line first, you win. That's how it has always worked
This kind of warfare relies on moving faster than your opponent can think. If you're moving at leg speed, your opponent has days to calm down and think straight.

What good is a city without highways to support it?
You could siege all of Homs, but it only has like 5 highways, and 1 goes around the city. Just drive down them, and to the finish line.
This is your Book of 5 Rings, don't get fancy, drive!
I really gotta start reading bios.
It's the Idiocracy of auto racing.
