If it's the latter, and you're strong enough to be a deterrent, does the AI bypass the land route with ships?

I know we don't know exactly how M2TW will work... just wondering about how this was in MTW.
You could allow them to cross your lands without a fight and lose of territories. The other way was to crush them once and forever
