Three Kingdoms: Starting War Strategy System

Xu Chu reported on things related to Yizhou, but he said very little about some things in Jingzhou.

The final request was:"Your Majesty, the Yizhou Army and the Jingzhou Army will join forces to explore the southern tip of Yizhou and the Shan Kingdom. It is covered with tropical rain forests and it is inconvenient to march on land. Although there are communication pigeons and reconnaissance pigeons patrolling in the air, they cannot do so because of the language inconvenience. Report the situation as soon as possible.

The civil servants and generals of Yizhou would like to implore Your Majesty to dispatch a hot air balloon, a new product of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, to Yizhou to join the exploration!"

Xu Chu prostrated.

Guo Jia, Xun You, Xun Yu and others were stunned.

Information about hot air balloons is Guo Jia's secret, and few people know about it.

However, when the Chinese Academy of Sciences came to support the Jiaozhou war, Zhou Yu and other Jiangdong troops used hot air balloons to fight in Linyi State, which proved to be of great use.

It is only natural that the Yizhou Army and Jingzhou Army know this.

Liu Chen pondered for a moment, then nodded and said:"Feng Xiao, you ask the Chinese Academy of Sciences to dispatch a hot air team to aid Yizhou!"

"Subordinates obey!"

Guo Jia, Xun You and Xun Yu shouted in unison.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xu Chu was even more excited. They had long been interested in hot air balloons.

In fact, with the added ability, although it was inconvenient for them to march on land, it was not that troublesome.

What's more, there happened to be many tame weapons such as reconnaissance pigeons in Yizhou. Beastmaster. For example, King Mulu in the Southern Barbarian Rebels is a typical beastmaster.

It is not very troublesome for them to communicate with each other.

But if there is a hot air balloon, communication between people will be much simpler. What? If there is any trouble, just wave the command flag in the air.

You can even use communication pigeons to send messages from the air, making message transmission even simpler.

……

Xu Chu retreated after reporting everything in Yizhou and Jingzhou.

Then it was Yu Jin's turn to step forward, cupped his hands towards Liu Chen and said,"Your Majesty, the general is here to report on the battles in Jiaozhou and Linyi Kingdom, and the countries in the Golden Triangle beside him.……"

Yu Jin started to talk about 1510.

Although Yu Jin has been guarding Jiangdong and has not gone to the Jiaozhou front line, he still knows a lot about the battle reports on the front line.

Liu Chen, Zhao Yun, Guo Jia, Xun You, Xun Yu and other court officials just listened to Yu Jin's explanation.

Compared with the pale text on the information, Yu Jin's explanation is more intense, more real and exciting.

It also made Liu Chen and others lament the strength of Jiangdong Army, the strategizing of advisers such as Zhou Yu and Lu Su, and the hard work of generals such as Sun Ce, Huang Gai, and Zhou Tai.

"This is the important minister of the country and the pillar of the country!"

Liu Chen sighed and expressed great recognition and appreciation for the civil servants and generals of the Jiangdong Army.

After Yu Jin thanked him, he got to the point:"Your Majesty, it took me a month to travel from Jiangdong to the capital this time.……"

"A month?

Guo Jia was stunned:"Did something happen on the way?" Or was it delayed due to visiting friends and other matters?"

Now that the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is open, and there are cement roads extending in all directions, if it takes a month to reach the capital from Jiangdong, the speed is more than half as slow as before.

Yu Jin immediately explained:"It's not that the journey is slow, but that I visited a man on the way. Friends."

Guo Jia, Xun You and Xun Yu breathed a sigh of relief and were instantly relieved!

If there is a traffic jam problem on the canal and cement road, they must solve it as soon as possible.

Yu Jin continued:"At the end of the day, we will set off. , Jiangdong Army had already broken through Funan Kingdom (Jian simple village) and marched into Siam Kingdom (Titanium Kingdom).

If the general's prediction was correct, Jiangdong's army would have captured Siam at this time. As a result, the entire Golden Triangle countries fell into the hands of the Han Dynasty.

Governor Zhou Yu and others wanted to establish a naval base in the bay next to the Kingdom of Siam.

In this way, the future Maritime Silk Road could be transferred from land, and then sailed again from the naval base of the Kingdom of Siam without passing through the Strait of Malacca. Avoid the tragedy of shipwrecks and fatalities caused by weather conditions such as strait currents and storms."

……

Sea trade transportation in this era was extremely risky, mainly due to the impact of weather conditions such as currents and storms on the ocean, which were difficult for humans to control.

Even Dahan's current technological level cannot guarantee the safety of sea trade transportation 100%.

In fact, even in later generations, accidents involving shipwrecks and fatalities will occur.

The Maritime Silk Road starts from Jiangdong and other coastal prefectures and counties, goes south to Nanhai, and then trades with the countries in the Golden Triangle, as well as Luzon and Malacca.

Then go to India to cross the ocean through the Strait of Malacca, and go to the Shendu Kingdom, Kushan Empire and other trade further west.

The voyage is too long and there are too many possibilities for accidents. Especially the geographical location of the Strait of Malacca poses huge risks.

Now that the countries in the Golden Triangle have captured it, the Han Dynasty can explore the Kingdom of Siam by land and transfer directly to the west in the bay on the other side.

This made Liu Chen, Guo Jia and others overjoyed!

Not only was it a surprise, Zhou Yu and other Jiangdong troops captured the Golden Triangle countries nearly a year faster than expected.

It is also surprising that Dahan’s maritime trade transportation will be safer and more convenient in the future. There are more choices.

Liu Chen roughly simulated it.

Later generations of Guojia in the Mekong River Basin, such as Yue Nang, Lao Wo, Jian Suzhai and Tai Kingdom, have all fallen into the hands of the Han Dynasty.

The map of later generations is like a golden rooster standing on its own, but missing its legs.

Now that we have captured the countries in the Mekong River Basin of the Golden Triangle, it is equivalent to having chicken feet. The real golden chicken is independent, more complete and mighty!

Moreover, now they can even establish a naval base on the other side of the Andaman Sea, without having to cross the turbulent and dangerous Malacca Strait.

In fact, this is also the strategic ideal of many people in later generations.

If the countries in the Mekong Golden Triangle are captured, Guo Jia will no longer have to be constrained by the countries in Nanhai and Dongnan.

Starting directly from the Andaman Sea, trading with Western countries through the Arabian Sea, or heading south to India and across the ocean, there is no obstacle to the Atlantic Ocean.

Strategic materials need not be affected at all.

Of course, today is the Han Dynasty, and in this era, the Han Dynasty is the most powerful.

The reason why we captured the countries in the Mekong River Basin of the Golden Triangle was not because of constraints. Foreign countries and races did not yet have the ability and qualifications.

Rather, it is more convenient and serves as a springboard for future westward marches.

Liu Chen's heart was surging. He looked at Yu Jin and said solemnly:"Jiangdong Army has made great contributions to the country! It should be heavily rewarded!" These few short words cheered up Yu Jin and he immediately prostrated:"General, on behalf of my colleagues from Jiangdong Army, I would like to thank Your Majesty." kindness!"

"Zhou Yu wants to establish a naval base in the Andaman Strait, and I am sure!"Liu Chen waved his hand.

The Andaman Sea... the big man didn't have this name yet, so Yu Jin was stunned for a moment, but he didn't ask back, and said gratefully:"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
