Lu Bu was taught a lot about the world map by Jia Xu, so Jia Xu asked for a map. Lu Bu instantly generated a high-definition world map with partial terrain, which was directly displayed in the center of Weiyang Palace. The world map Although many people have seen this thing now, there are also many people who have not seen it. Therefore, when it was released, many people who had never seen it only thought it was a map and did not think deeply about it. However, after Jia Xu explained it, all the people who had never seen it were dumbfounded, and they were even old enough to not need to salute the eldest princess. , Zhao Qi, who pretended to be too old, started playing the ball directly. His movements were so flexible that he didn't look like a ninety-year-old man at all. "Quiet." Liu Tong knocked on a few boxes and said coldly. This was the first time she had seen the world map, but that didn't stop her from hearing about it many times. After all, Liu Tong is the regent princess. Although she has a generous personality, it does not mean that she is not majestic. On the contrary, after she spoke, except for Zhao Qi's old arms and legs, which were still jumping with joy, the others had already sat back, and soon Zhao Qi also Sit back. "This area, this area, is our area all along." Jia Xu took out a pole and pointed at the coverage area of ??the Han Dynasty on the map, "This is Chang'an, this is Jicheng, this is Chengdu, this is Moling, this is It¡¯s Jiuzhen in Jiaozhou, and this is Dunhuang in Liangzhou.¡± Jia Xu soon outlined the general scope of the Han Dynasty¡¯s rule. A group of court officials stared at Jia Xu's explanation in stunned silence. They looked at the area that was not much bigger than their own faces, and then looked at other blank areas. They suddenly felt that they had always thought that they were the lord of the world, but they ended up in such a big pool. It¡¯s really a bit embarrassing to dance for so long. "The borders of these places constitute the territory of our Han Dynasty. Although there are still many places inside that have not been developed, for the most part, these places have belonged to us and have been under our rule for no less than four hundred years, which can be said to have been since ancient times." Jia Xu pointed out calmly. Speaking of these places, all the court officials nodded repeatedly, indicating that this was the right thing to do. "Then these places are countries beyond our knowledge. There is a country here called Anxi." Jia Xu pointed at the map and said, and then many court officials showed thoughtful expressions. Although there is no shortage of wine bags and rice bags in the Han Dynasty court, there are basically no parallel imports now, so I quickly remembered the contents of the Han Dynasty book and squinted at it. "But this country is about to die." Jia Xu said calmly, "This country is about to be beaten to death by the Great Qin next to it. The main force of Great Qin is about 160,000 to 70,000. There are estimated to be ten dual-talented legions for the main battle. The number of troops in the decisive battle is increased. It seems that there are five or six, and the number of servants is huge." As soon as these words came out, many of the official pens recorded on the wat board fell to the ground. There were not many court officials in the country of Da Qin, but the strength and strength of the people on the other side were huge. At least they understand the specifications. "But Rome is quite far away from us. There is nothing to say. Our biggest opponent now is this." Jia Xu pointed at the map of South Asia and ancient India with a pointer and said, "This is the territory of Kushan, that is, The Great Yuezhi who roared in the court was not made into a sphere because of the map. Some places looked particularly large and some places were particularly small. Therefore, Kushan looked relatively smaller on the map. Although the court official was a little worried when he stared at that place, at least he didn't look solemn like when he was facing Rome. "If we want to send troops to Guishuang, we can only go this way, and this way." Jia Xu pointed to two roads and said. All the officials can understand the reason. There is no need to go south through the Congling Mountains of Central Asia. There is no need to go to Yizhou. There is nothing to say about heading westward from the south. After all, Qinghai-Tibet is not a place where people can go. "This is the forward base for our construction." Jia Xu pointed to Congling and said, "There are mines, water, and plains here. According to our calculations, if fully developed, it can support an army of about 100,000 people, but this piece of Kushan They are surrounded by high mountains and deserts, which can be said to be natural barriers. The Xiliang Cavalry once tried to fight, but after the fight, they were forced to retreat. "There was an uproar in the whole place, although many people present were ravaged by the Xiliang Cavalry. , but they are still willing to admit that the Xiliang cavalry is the best cavalry in their Han Dynasty. As for the past, let them go by the past. Now they are their own soldiers, and of course they will not hold grudges. As a result, you tell us now that the most capable Xiliang cavalry cannot defeat Kushan here. "This is due to the terrain. If we fight them on the plain, we can beat them seven to one." Guo Bang stood up with a clang and said very unconvinced, "Now on the plain, we can beat ten to one." The air was silent for a moment. A large group of people recognized this guy as Guo Si. There was no way that Guo Si spent too much time in Chang'an and had many acquaintances. However, he had a high level of political awareness to go to court and knew what to say and what not to say. Therefore, There was only silence.  Liu Tong looked at Guo Si with half-squinted eyes. She also recognized this guy as Guo Si. However, when the Xiliang Three Fools withdrew from Chang'an and went to the Western Regions, and looking at the current situation, they have indeed established a forward base, that is, Said that this matter itself was planned, Liu Tong couldn't help but frown. Liu Tong half-squinted his eyes and stared at the fury in Guo Si's heart. He suddenly said, "Where is the guard? Get out." Even if you are stupid, you know that you still have a great desire to survive. If everyone sees through it and doesn't tell it, then it's good for you and me. If you have to tell it, someone will definitely not be able to step down today. Seeing this, Jia Xu also rolled his eyes. He didn't care about Guo Si, he just forked it out and didn't kill him on the spot. He couldn't help but feel that Liu Tong understood the righteousness. "Just like what the guy said before, the opponent's troops are very dependent on the terrain, and we have basically no experience fighting in the desert next door." Jia Xu turned around and continued to speak calmly, as if he was talking to the guy who had just been forked out. He doesn't have the slightest connection. "We have it." Zhu Jun stood up and said, "It doesn't exist for your generation, but it does exist for people like us. The battle of Xiqiang is also a desert battle." "The other side is mainly camel riders. "Our infantry is capable of fighting in the desert. The problem is that without cavalry, we can't catch up and are too passive." Jia Xu glanced at Zhu Jun and said, "What kind of pretense are you pretending to be?" He said as if you are older than me. I'm twenty, so I'm fifty now. "The same goes for cavalry. Desert warfare requires very high levels of patience. If you don't share the patience of camels, it will be difficult to fight for a long time." Zhu Jun frowned and said, "Generally speaking, camel cavalry is a specialized unit for desert warfare. , the first talent needed should be sharing, and by connecting these, the second talent is the talent for combat. " "Can you get it?" Chen Xi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said immediately. "If there is a camel, it's okay. If there is no camel, it's better not to dream." Zhu Jun said coldly. He had been annoyed to death by Huangfu Song recently. He was doing all the so-called elite talents all day long. Zhu Jun just wanted to Tell me, can you be more realistic? "Received." Chen Xi nodded and said, if I had told you earlier, it would be no problem if we could get it done. "We will transfer a group of adult camels back from the north later. Although it is not many, there are still ten or twenty thousand. Please invite us when the time comes. The general took action." "But." Zhu Jun said calmly, "If Chen Hou is interested, he should still care about Huangfu Yizhen. That guy seems to be hysterical." After saying that, Zhu Jun sat back in his seat. He stopped talking, that is, he dared to directly say that Huangfu Song was hysterical in the court, which other normal people would not dare to say even if they had the guts. "Is Huangfu Yizhen hysterical?" Chen Xi looked at Zhu Jun in confusion, repeated it twice silently, and said to himself with a weird look on his face, wasn't he fine a while ago? Why did I suddenly become hysterical? But I didn¡¯t come to the meeting today. It¡¯s not that I can¡¯t understand why I¡¯m hysterical. It was said that Hua Tuo's medicine was so unreliable, or Huangfu Song simply didn't take the medicine at all. Chen Xi thought about it and felt that it should be the latter's problem, and indeed he should be forced to receive treatment. "Ahem." Jia Xu coughed twice, and then Everyone's attention was drawn back again, "The biggest problem in the country of Kushan lies in these two places." Jia Xu pointed to the Indian Ocean and then to the plains in the south of Kushan, "First of all, the Kushan It¡¯s hard for us to describe how strong the navy is. Anyway, as far as the current situation is concerned, we have fought several times and never got an advantage.¡± As soon as these words came out, everyone whispered, the people of the Han Dynasty had no feeling at all about the navy. , even the concept of navy exists in the south and is not very common in the north. What's more, for the Han Dynasty, what's the use of a strong navy that can attack cities and plunder lands? "Quiet." Jia Xu said with a dark face, and then pointed to the location of Malacca, "Look here, this is the only passage. If our navy wants to pass by, it must go here. However, this place is occupied by Kushan's Qianfan Navy. "It's blocked." "Everyone here should understand the advantages of transporting food and grass by water," Jia Xu saw that the court officials were still disapproving, so he continued. This time, everyone looked solemn because Jia Xu drew a line to let everyone understand the difficulty of grain transshipment. Guishan blocked this place, which basically blocked the shipping logistics line of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, the court directly fell into a wordless silence. "Originally, if it was smooth here, starting from Yangzhou, starting from Jiaozhou, starting from Qingzhou, it would take two or three months to transfer a large amount of grain there, but here is blocked, you can't go here, if you continue to go south, go The storm here is too great." Jia Xu sighed and said, "Guishang is indeed very good in terms of grand strategy." At first, when Jia Xu and others did not pay attention to the concept of the world, they did not feel it. After they opened their eyes, they had to think that Kushan was a terrifying arrangement in terms of grand strategy. With their qualifications Of course, we cannot casually think that it was just a coincidence that Kushan blocked the place. But how should I put it, it was actually a coincidence that Kushan blocked Malacca. However, regardless of whether it was a coincidence or not, this result can not help but make those resourceful people in the Central Plains think deeply. Blocking this place, considering the wind and waves going south, shipping is not worth the gain. The court of the Han Dynasty now has too many resourceful people. It soon became clear that this was a deceptive situation. If the other party blocked the place, their maritime logistics could be basically said to be finished, and the land route Everyone couldn't help but think about the land route to Congling. Although there was a Congling logistics base there, the mountains were high and steep, and the deserts and Gobi deserts were connected to each other. I'm afraid that even if they wanted to do logistics, the transportation pressure would be too great. Unless they camel riders Also get it out, otherwise it can only be used to attract attention and carry out feint attacks. In this case, there is only one way, which is to go south to the south of Jingzhou and the south of Yizhou. However, after looking at the location and thinking about the Hengduan Mountains, all the court officials suffered from liver pain. "It seems that you have thought of the crux." Jia Xu said with a smile. The Hengduan Mountains in the south of Yizhou is a sinkhole. The Han Dynasty has ruled there for hundreds of years. There are counties, treasury, and a few If the army wants to pass by and open a position on the spot, it is actually not a big problem. The only problem is that if you want to fight Kushan, a small number of troops are of little significance, but if you want a large army, you can only adjust the food supply. If you break the terrain and adjust the food supply from other places, it will be very troublesome. "So the current solution is a multi-pronged approach. The highways from Chang'an to Hanzhong, Hanzhong to Chengdu, and the viaduct from Chengdu to Zhongnan, plus the local grain base in Zhongnan. A multi-pronged approach should be able to ensure the food and grass for an army of about 100,000 people. , although it is easy to be attacked by the opponent's navy," Jia Xu pointed to the Bay of Bengal and sighed. Everyone nodded indifferently. They had to admit that what Jia Xu said was very reasonable. If they were Kushan, they would definitely touch the Han army's grain road there. The difficulty of transporting grain and grass was doomed to the Han army's strength. upper limit. Once you have to protect the logistics and food, the troops at the front will be insufficient. Without the logistics and food, there is no way to fight this battle. Unless you have the ability of Sun Wu, who can run thousands of miles to attack the capital. If you don't have this ability, then don't talk nonsense. It will definitely not happen. Method. "Why not get through this place?" Zhang Jian, the old guard, squinted his eyes and pointed at the slender piece of land between the Gulf of Thailand and the Sea of ??Myanmar. "According to the plan on this map, I think this place is only a hundred meters wide." About fifty miles, just open a canal to connect the east and west. " Zhang Jian's words made everyone stunned, and then they couldn't help but look at the position of the Myanmar Sea and the Gulf of Thailand. After a while, they looked at Zhang Jian in shock. This guy is now already there. He is over eighty years old, and he is the same as Sima Jun. He is also the kind of old man who can be used as coffin flesh. "Gongyou, is this project difficult?" Jia Xu said slowly after a while. They had never thought that they could build a canal here before, but Chen Xi was dumbfounded and had never thought that there was another way. This kind of operation. "Visual inspection shows that the width at the narrowest point is no more than 150 miles. It is not difficult to build a canal at all." Sun Qian swallowed his saliva and said, what an unscientific solution this is. The canal built by the Han Dynasty, not counting the Grand Canal currently under construction, the six auxiliary canals combined are so long. The length of 150 miles is really not a problem for these people! "Let's keep this as a record, and get a group of people to investigate when the time comes." Jia Xu said speechlessly. They really haven't thought about building a canal, but if a canal is built at that location, it seems that it will be easily attack. "Are you worried about being attacked?" Zhang Jian seemed to understand what these people were thinking instantly. The loose skin and the smiling face looked like chrysanthemums. "Mr. Zhang, please speak." Jia Xu saluted respectfully. "They attack you by water, so you cavalry go and fight them! The boats can run fast, and your six-legged cavalry are not slow either. They can't beat them in the water. They sail boats to capture your area, but you won't go south to capture them. "It's easier to destroy a water village than to build it. If it doesn't work, burn it down." Zhang Jian said, "You are too young." Chen Xi instantly understood what Zhang Jian was thinking. This was a competition for national strength, to see who could build faster. He could not win on the battlefield, but he could still drag you to death. After all, the Han Dynasty still has professional infrastructure talents, and the Kushan side, after doing this a few times, the local area can sustain it, but the Malacca side will definitely not be able to sustain it. ??"Thank you for your explanation, Weiwei." Jia Xu saluted respectfully. "It's nothing. This is all the experience of exchanging money in the past. As for the capital after Chen Zichuan, don't use the money that you have or don't have. Just exchange the money directly. Complex problems are simplified. If you can make a bargain ten to one, then just exchange it to death. "Sooner or later, I won't be able to hold on anymore," Zhang Jian said with a cold expression. "Actually, if you ask me, if you have a lot of money, you can build dozens of shipyards in this area. If you can't defeat the ship, it will just sink the ship. I don't understand the navy, but I guess shipbuilding also requires a construction period. Stay calm and calm, both sides will We have no reserves and we cannot lose with infantry alone." Zhang Jian pointed to the Bay of Bengal and said, even more ruthlessly than Chen Xi. Chen Xi's original idea was to explode a sea of ??ships and block the Bay of Bengal. Zhang Jian directly planned to use it as a battlefield and a tomb of warships, so that both sides would have no time to build ships. Anyway, the Han family does not rely on the navy to survive, and your Kushan navy If you are strong enough, it depends on what you do if you can't build a boat. "We have considered this." Jia Xu coughed twice and said, feeling that these old guys were not easy on gas if they were serious. "Then I won't say anything. Anyway, when facing this kind of opponent, it's better to be reasonable than to act like a hooligan, and to act like a hooligan is better to hurt others with your own strength." Zhang Jian moved his mouth, sat back on crutches, and gave a summary before leaving, saying This guy had done this kind of thing before he got up. "Zhang Gong's idea can be used as a reference. Let's continue talking about Guishuang." Jia Xu nodded to Zhang Jian who sat back and closed his eyes to rest, and then continued to explain. "This area is the largest essence area of ??Kushan." Jia Xu pointed to the Ganges River Basin in the south of Kushan. "In this area, rice can be harvested three times a year. There is no rotational farming or fallow. The yield per mu in a year can be easily exceeded." Ten stones.¡±
