Chapter 697: Five Nations Alliance


"It's hot, it's so hot" Si Hongzhuang was lying on a bamboo chair, leaving only a pair of shorts all over his body, Rao was still covered with sweat, and his muscles were as solid as steel under the greasy.

The time has come to the middle of the summer of 349 A.D. in the eighth year of Yuan Shuo, and the drought in the Central Plains has broken out locally, and although there is no shadow of drought in South Asia, it is very sultry.

Each region of the earth has its own climate, some places are cold in the North and South Poles in all seasons, some places will be very hot in the Middle East and some desert areas, and some areas will rotate in four seasons, and there will be cold places near the North and South Poles, and there are many places that are hot in all seasons.

South Asia because of the relationship between latitude and longitude, is the four seasons of the year will be relatively hot, that kind of heat is not only hot, usually seems stuffy, if there is a lack of water again, in the summer is really not less hot to death.

The area where the Pingman Captain Department is located is actually okay, the heat is hot but it is like the extremely hot stage of the Central Plains, if it doesn't look stuffy, although the Han people stationed here will feel very hot, but they can still bear it, the problem is that it is difficult to adapt to the heat and stuffiness.

Under the sweltering heat, the Han army stationed in the Pingman Captain's Department has reduced the amount of training, because the high-intensity training has occurred under the sweltering heat, and some soldiers who could not adapt to it died of illness.

Heat death is an almost unpreventable thing, people's physique is different, some people in the same environment can not have a problem, some people will have an accident, in terms of disease, it is not only to rely on their own quality but also to have a means of treatment.

When the Han army came to this place, it was destined to encounter many things that had not been encountered in the Central Plains, such as diseases.

"It's a disease called malaria."

Fu Wei said with palpitations: "If you have that kind of disease, you will first get hot all over, and nothing you eat will be fragrant, and you will soon have diarrhea all the time, vomiting while pulling." ” At least they knew what kind of disease they had, and they didn't simply classify it as a soil and water adaptation, and they even figured out that it was because of a mosquito bite.

On how to treat malaria, the Central Plains actually studied the relevant prescription in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and the researcher was Zhang Zhongjing, who spent his whole life studying how to treat the plague and wrote a huge work on typhoid fever and miscellaneous diseases.

Although the theory of typhoid fever and miscellaneous diseases does not mention the treatment of malaria, some theories are the same.

The Han country's treatment of malaria is a prescription given by the center, but in fact, Liu Yan happens to know how to treat it, and the source is the interception of malaria in the Puji prescription.

The Han Chinese did not rush into Indochina as soon as their brains were hot, but they were prepared to the greatest extent in advance, including how to deal with known diseases.

Si Hongzhuang got up from the recliner and walked to the edge of the balcony of the bamboo building, looking at the soldiers who were lining up in the square in the distance.

In the sweltering summer, the Han army will definitely no longer be able to wear thick battle robes, and Liu Yan will not make some low-level mistakes, such as making the people stationed in the hot areas have no summer military uniforms, and the troops in the cold areas will not have winter clothes.

The soldiers Si Hongzhuang saw were all wearing a short shirt on the upper body and a pair of shorts on the lower body.

That's how you wear it in non-wartime, you should wear armor when you want to go into battle, no matter how stuffy the armor is, you still have to wear it to save your life.

"I heard that Ah San's side is hotter than ours."

Fu Wei was more or less particular, and wore a whole set of summer military uniforms on his body: "It's hot enough on our side, it's really hard to imagine how hot Ah San is there." ” In the Gupta Dynasty, Vagata and other Asan countries, there is a thermometer to measure, and the temperature in summer is basically about 45 degrees, and in some areas it can even reach 50 degrees, which is really very hot.

"I kind of know why the natives here are dark-skinned."

Si Hongzhuang approached the bamboo building and took out a pot of ice water, drank it bitterly, wiped his mouth before saying, "It's all hot."

It sounds reasonable, but it's nonsense, what kind of human skin is depends on the genes, and it should be dark, even if you move to the North Pole, you won't change the skin color brought by the genes.

The ice water in Si Hongzhuang's hand, the ice was artificially made, but it was not moved from somewhere.

If you don't understand artificial ice, it will seem complicated, but if you understand, it's actually just like that, it just so happened that Liu Yan was curious when he read the relevant travel novels, so he went to find information and tried it himself.

A lot of things in the Han Kingdom came from Liu Yan, and of course artificial ice was too.

The two were talking about it, and Huan Wen sent someone to summon it.

The Pingman Captain's Department was operated by the Han for half a year, and the land developed was of course larger, but it was not built according to the habits of Zhuxia, such as the bamboo building that varies from place to place.

On the other hand, as the land became larger and larger, some areas were converted into cultivated land, and the tuntian soldiers who came from behind tried to cultivate various crops.

In the summer, the rice planted in the spring has become a large green field, swaying in the breeze.

The other areas have their own crops, except for rice, all kinds of legumes, and all kinds of vegetables brought from the mainland, and the farm area is much larger than the military camp, and if you don't know it, you will definitely think that the farm is more like a military base.

Of course, production is for self-sufficiency, and Huan Wen also specially asked people to find a wetland and start breeding chickens, ducks, and geese.

He had wanted to find a grassland, but he couldn't find a grassland in such a place, and cattle and sheep could graze, but it was difficult to find a place to raise horses.

"The Great Han has a limited alliance with Sasanian."

Huan Wen is dressed in silk, he is already good-looking, he looks like a merry man, but his temperament is extremely hard.

He paused, glanced around the generals, and after a short moment continued, "The Persians will fight alongside us next. ” In terms of dealing with the Gupta dynasty, the Han state not only formed a military alliance with the Persian Sassanids, but also two Satrapps, the Kidoro dynasty and the Calabaras, and the five states would work together against the Gupta dynasty, but the Kidoro dynasty and Calabaras would not directly participate in the war.

The Jitara dynasty was a contributor to diplomatic relations, and they would lobby the countries surrounding the Gupta dynasty to remain neutral even if they did not join the war against the Gupta dynasty.

Calabaras was drawn into this alliance by the Persian Sassanids, because the Persian Sassanids valued the geographical location of Calabaras.

If the Persian Sassanid wants to send troops, the fleet needs a garrison to leave the mainland and enter the Persian Sea and go south to the Arabian Sea, and the location of Calabaras, which is located at the southernmost point of the Persian three territories, is very suitable, which can provide supplies to the Persian Sassanid and can also go ashore to rest, not to mention that it is too far to go directly from the Persian Sassanid mainland to the Pingban Captain's headquarters.

"It's good for them to join."

Yuan Qiao is also dressed in a silk suit, and under the support of his temperament, he is more like a noble son than Huan Wen.

He thought for a moment and asked, "How many troops will be sent?"

Huan Wen has no relevant information, and there is only news of a partial military alliance from the center, and the number of troops that those alliances will send has not been mentioned, and it has not even been mentioned who is the main and who is auxiliary, from which it can be seen that this alliance is more like a temptation.

In fact, the alliance is also divided into priorities, and the alliance of many national forces also requires a leading boss, or who should listen to whom Of course, the Han State attaches great importance to this local military alliance against the Gupta Dynasty, and the Asan territory is too far away from the Han mainland, and the Han State has a lot of strength at most, and it is naturally willing to have more helpers, but it has not yet figured out why the Persian Sassanid is so enthusiastic, and has a certain vigilance.

The Persian Sassanid envoys led by Kianush Arta Ardashir were in a hurry, and they still had the heart to be the boss of this local military alliance, but they really didn't dare to open that mouth rashly.

In the eyes of the Persian Sassanids, it was they who invited the two Satraps, the Zodora dynasty, and the Kalabaraths to join in, and the Han kingdom did not even know about those states before.

Since those countries were invited by the Persian Sassanids, the Persian Sassanids have a great deal of dominance, and the Persian Sassanids are the hegemon of Central Asia, and it is completely reasonable for them to become the boss of this military alliance under various factors.

Then the problem arises, based on the Persian Sassanid understanding of the Han people, the Han people are a proud nation, and no proud and powerful nation can give up the dominant power.

Moreover, the Persian Sassanids also understood that they took the initiative to join, and they were not invited by the Han State, so they had already negotiated an alliance but did not have a main and auxiliary status.

"Obviously, those nations must be obedient to the Sasanians."

Yuan Qiao didn't need to consume more brain cells at all, and said: "The Han never knew that there were those countries, and they must not know what kind of existence the Han is.

There has never been contact, and Dahan has no friendship with them, and only one victory over Ah San is not enough to deter. ” "Say so" Si Hongzhuang frowned at first, and then said viciously: "The Persians are coming to fight for the fruits of victory."

Si Hongzhuang has the reason to think so, it is the Han State that took the lead in fighting with the Gupta Dynasty, and the first battle was also victorious, maybe those countries thought that the Gupta Dynasty was easy to bully, and Hula came over to get a piece of the pie to make such an alliance.

As for the Persian Sassanid clearly stated that there would be no land demand or anything like that, as long as it involves the national level, not to mention that the promise is useless, even if it is written in plain words, it can be torn up at any time, and it cannot be taken seriously at all.

Huan Wen must have thought about similar problems, such as the Persian Sassanid and other countries felt that the Gupta Dynasty was easy to bully, and for example, the Han Kingdom was too far away from the Asan territory, and found that the Gupta Dynasty was easy to bully at the same time, and the Han State took the lead and couldn't wait to take advantage.

"The alliance is a foregone conclusion."

Huan Wen set the tone first, lest someone say something embarrassing to everyone.

He tapped his fingers rhythmically on the desk in front of him as he said, "The center has no other instructions. ” Several countries want to unite to bully the Gupta dynasty, and there is only one big intention on how to cooperate, such as the two Satraps marching from the northwest of the Gupta dynasty, the Gupta dynasty using the state to hand over to the Gupta dynasty to make trouble, and Calabaras providing supplies and resting places for the Persian Sassanid army, but there is no word on the details.

Huan Wen felt a little better because the center did not have new instructions, which meant that this war could still give him free reins.

On another level, he thinks that the center allows them to do their own thing, and they can completely leave the so-called allies and do their own thing without new orders from the center.

"An alliance is an alliance, and even if there is a plan, there must be time to prepare."

Yuan Qiao knew what was going on as soon as he saw Huan Wen's attitude, or how to say that the two of them had a tacit understanding when they partnered, so he followed the direction that Huan Wen wanted and said, "I don't know when those alliances will be ready." ” "That's right."

Si Hongzhuang really didn't think that he needed any allies to deal with the Gupta Dynasty, and said, "Didn't the general already have a plan?"

Huan Wen has been looking for a breakthrough, and landing directly from the coastal land of the Gupta Dynasty will encounter a strong resistance, so he really can't hit it hard.

He had already looked for a landing direction, starting from a small country in the southwest of the Gupta dynasty, and had even begun to make relevant plans.

"Ah San's navy has been trying to fight back recently."

Li Mai was in charge of naval warfare, and there was no one here who knew the Gupta Dynasty's naval movements better than him: "They have already assembled a fleet of more than 1,500 ships, and we have avoided fighting a battle at sea, and they dare not attack the Pingban Captain's Department again, and they are forming a sabotage formation to deal with our attack." ” Recently, the Gupta navy was very active, and the Han navy was no longer able to completely block the Gupta navy on the coast when the number of Han warships was far less than that of the Gupta navy.

Except for the necessary raids, the Han navy gave way to the blockade of the coast, and the confrontation between the two sides was transferred to the Bay of Bengal region.

If Huan Wen wants to land on the Asan territory, then he must once again severely damage the Gupta Dynasty's navy, and once again block the Gupta Dynasty's navy in the port in order to make effective deployment.

In his plan, he said that he was going to attack that small country, but the necessary confusion of the Gupta dynasty had to be carried out, not so that the Gupta dynasty could not judge where the Han army would land from, but to make the Gupta dynasty believe that the Han army would land somewhere they thought it would be.

In fact, it is also embarrassing, in the history of world wars so far, not only has the Zhuxia civilization not had such a large-scale cross-sea landing invasion, but other civilizations have not had such a large scale.

The cross-sea landing in the Mediterranean is not something that Huan Wen can find to study now, he can only think about it with the long history of the march and many paintings, and after making a general direction, he magically found that after there is a detail, more details pop up, there are too many details for strategic confusion, and there are many details on how to land, and even after the landing, there are endless details.

"General."

Li Mai was very embarrassed and said to Huan Wen: "With the current number of warships in our army, I am afraid it will be difficult to have a battle with Ah San.

We need more warships. ”:
