Chapter 697: : Five Nations League

"Hot, it's too hot!"

   Si Hongzhuang was lying on a bamboo chair, with only a pair of shorts left all over his body. He was still covered in sweat, and his muscles were as solid as steel under the greasiness.

   The time has come to the middle of summer in the eighth year of Yuanshuo (AD 349), and the drought in the Central Plains has partially broken out. Although there is no shadow of drought in South Asia, it is very hot and humid.

Each region of the earth has its own climate. Some places are cold in all seasons (the north and south poles), some are always hot (the Middle East and some deserts), and some areas where the four seasons change are also cold (close to South and North Pole), and there are not few places where the seasons are hotter.

   Due to the latitude and longitude, South Asia is relatively hot throughout the year. The heat is not only hot, but usually looks stuffy. If there is another shortage of water, it will be really hot in summer.

The area where the Pingman’s captain’s department is located is actually good. The heat is hot but it looks like the extremely hot stage of the Central Plains. If it doesn’t look stuffy, the Han people stationed here will feel very hot, but they can still tolerate it. The problem is that the heat increases. It is difficult to adapt to the boredom.

   Under the sweltering heat, the Han army stationed in the Pingman Captain's Headquarters has reduced the amount of training. The reason is that the high-intensity training under the sultry heat has happened, and some soldiers who could not adapt have died of illness.

  Heat death is a thing that is almost impossible to prevent. People have different physiques. In the same environment, some people can do nothing, but some people will have trouble. In terms of disease, it depends not only on one's own quality, but also on treatment.

   When the Han army came to this place, it was destined to encounter a lot of things that were not encountered in the Central Plains, such as diseases.

   "It's a disease called malaria." Fu Wei said with lingering fear: "If you get that disease, your whole body will become hot first, and nothing will be fragrant when you eat. You will soon have diarrhea, pulling and vomiting."

   At least they knew what kind of illness they had. They didn't simply classify it as being unacceptable. They even figured out that it was because of being bitten by a mosquito.

   About how to treat malaria in the Central Plains, the relevant prescriptions were actually developed in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. The researcher was Zhang Zhongjing. He spent his entire life studying how to treat the plague and wrote the masterpiece "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases." Although "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" does not mention the treatment of malaria, some theories are still the same.

  The treatment of malaria here in Han is the prescription given by the central government. In fact, Liu Yan just knows how to treat it, and the source is the Jieyasan in "Pujifang".

   The Han Chinese did not rush into the Indochina Peninsula as soon as their brains are hot. They are 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 balcony of the bamboo building, watching the soldiers lined up on the square in the distance.

   In the sweltering summer, the Han army definitely can no longer wear thick shirts. Liu Yan will not make some low-level mistakes, such as letting people stationed in the hot zone have no summer uniforms, and letting troops in the cold regions have no winter uniforms.

   The soldiers that Si Hongzhuang saw were all wearing a short shirt on the upper body and a pair of shorts on the lower body. This is how you wear it during non-war time. You should wear armor when you are in battle. No matter how stuffy the armor is, you should wear it to protect your life.

"I heard that Ah San's place is hotter than ours." Fu Wei is more or less particular, wearing a whole set of summer uniforms: "Our side is already hot enough. It's hard to imagine how hot Asan's place is. ."

   There is a thermometer in the Asan countries such as the Gupta Dynasty, Vajdaqa and other countries. The temperature in summer is basically around forty-five degrees, and in some areas it can even reach fifty degrees, which is really very hot.

"I kind of know why the indigenous people here have dark skin." Si Hongzhuang approached the bamboo building and took a pot of ice water out, took a swig, wiped his mouth and said, "It's all very hot. of!"

   It sounds reasonable, but it is a nonsense. What kind of human skin is based on genes. If it is dark skin, it will not change the skin color brought by genes even if it is moved to the North Pole.

   The ice water in Si Hongzhuang's hands. The ice is artificially made, but it is not brought from somewhere.

   If you don’t understand artificial ice making, it will seem complicated. If you understand it, it’s just that. It just so happened that Liu Yan was curious when looking at the relevant crossing, so he went to look for information and tried it by himself. Many things in Han are from Liu Yan, and of course the artificial ice is also.

   The two are making a fool of each other, and Huan Wen sends someone over to summon.

   The Pingman School Lieutenant Department was run by the Han for half a year. The land opened up was of course larger, but it was not constructed in accordance with Zhu Xia’s habits.

   On the other hand, as the land becomes larger and larger, some areas are transformed into cultivated land, and the farming soldiers from behind try to cultivate various crops.

   The rice planted in spring has become a paddy field in summer. It looks like a large green area, shaking in the breeze.

Other areas have their own crops. In addition to rice, there are all kinds of beans. Indispensable are all kinds of vegetables brought from the local area. The scope of the farm is much larger than the military camp. Think of it as a farm more like a military base.

   Of course, production is for self-sufficiency. Huanwen also specially asked people to find a wetland and started breeding chickens, ducks, and geese. He originally wanted to find the grassland, but there is no grassland in such a place. Cows and sheep can be grazing, but it is difficult to find a place to raise horses.

   "The big man has already formed a limited alliance with Sassan." Huan Wen is a silk suit. He looks good in the first place. He looks like a romantic boy, but his temperament is extremely rigid. He paused, scanned the generals present, and then continued after a short while: "The Persians will fight next to us."

In dealing with the Gupta dynasty, Han not only formed a military alliance with the Persian Sassanids, but also had two Satraps, the Gidoro dynasty and Karabarras. The five countries will fight the Gupta dynasty together, but Jido The Luo Dynasty and Karabaras did not directly participate in the war.

   The Jidala dynasty contributed to the diplomatic relations. They would lobby the countries surrounding the Gupta dynasty, and even those countries should remain neutral even if they did not participate in the war against the Gupta dynasty.

   Karabarras was drawn into this alliance by the Persian Sassanian because the Persian Sassanes valued Karabarras's geographical location. If the Persian Sassan wants to send troops, the fleet needs a station to leave the mainland and enter the Persian Sea (Arabian Sea). It is very suitable to be located at the southernmost point of Karabaras in the Asan site. It can provide the Persian Sassan with supplies and at the same time. It would be too far to go directly from the Persian Sassanian mainland to the Pingman captain's department to go ashore and rest.

   "It's okay for them to join." Yuan Qiao is also in a silk suit, and his temperament is more like a noble son than Huan Wen. He thought for a while and asked: "How many troops will be sent?"

Huan Wen has no relevant information yet. There is only news about the formation of military alliances from the center. The alliances have not mentioned how many troops will be sent, and they have not even mentioned who is the leader and who is the auxiliary. It can be seen that this alliance is more like a trial. .

   In fact, alliances are also divided into priorities. Many countries (powers) must have a leader when they form alliances, or who should listen to whom?

Of course, the Han country valued this local military alliance against the Gupta dynasty. Asan site was too far away from the Han country. The Han country was very strong and would only be able to use it at most. It is naturally willing to have more helpers, but it hasn't been done yet. Understand why the Persian Sassan is so enthusiastic, holding a certain degree of vigilance.

   The Persian Sassanian envoy headed by Kianus Alta Aldashir is more anxious. They still have the intention to be the boss of the local military alliance this time, but they really didn't dare to rashly open the mouth.

   From the perspective of the Persian Sassanian, they invited the two Satraps, the Jiduo dynasty, and Karabarras to blend in. The Han country didn't even know those countries before. Since those countries are invited by the Persian Sassanids, the Persian Sassanids have a lot of dominance, and the Persian Sassanids are the hegemony of Central Asia at any rate. It is completely reasonable to become the leader of the military alliance this time under various factors.

  The problem is that, according to the Persian Sassanian's understanding of the Han people, the Han people are a proud nation, and it is impossible for any proud and powerful nation to give up the dominance. Furthermore, the Persian Sassan also understood that it was their initiative to join, not being invited by the Han country. Only when they had clearly negotiated the alliance but did not distinguish between the main and the auxiliary status.

"Obviously, those countries must follow Sassanid." Yuan Qiao didn't need to consume more brain cells at all, and said: "Big guys never knew those countries, and they presumably didn't know how big guys exist. They have never had any contact. The big man can't talk about friendship with them, and only one victory over Asan is not enough to shock."

   "So..." Si Hongzhuang frowned first, then said viciously: "Are the Persians coming to fight for the fruits of victory?"

Si Hongzhuang had every reason to think so. It was that Han was the first to fight with the Gupta dynasty, and it was also victorious in the first battle. Maybe it was those countries that thought the Gupta dynasty was good for bullying. Out of such an alliance.

   As for the Persian Sassanian clearly stated that there will be no demand for land, as long as it involves the national level, let alone promises useless, even if it is written in plain text, it can be torn up at any time, and it cannot be taken seriously at all.

Huan Wen must have thought about similar problems. For example, countries such as Persian Sassanid think that the Gupta dynasty is easy to bully. Another example is that the Han Kingdom is too far away from the Asan site. He found that the Gupta dynasty was a bully and Han was the first to take the initiative and can’t wait to come. Take advantage.

   "The alliance is a foregone conclusion." Huan Wen first set the tone so that no one would say something embarrassing for everyone. He tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table in front of him, while saying, "The center has no other instructions."

Several countries want to unite to bully the Gupta dynasty. There is only a big intention on how to cooperate. For example, the two satraps marched from the northwest of the Gupta dynasty, and the Gupta dynasty used the state to give it to the Gupta dynasty to find trouble, and Karabarras provided Persia. The supply and rest places of the Sassanid army, but there is still no detail on the details.

   Huan Wen feels a little better because the center has no new instructions, which means that this war will allow him to play freely. On another level, he thinks that the center allows them to do their own thing, and before the center has no new orders, they can put aside the so-called allies and do it themselves.

   "The alliance is an alliance. Even if there is a plan, it takes time to prepare." Yuan Qiao knew what was going on when he saw Huan Wen's attitude. How could they say that the two have a good understanding of each other? He followed Huan Wen's direction and said, "I don't know when those alliances will be ready."

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

   Huanwen has been looking for a breakthrough. Directly landing from the coast of the Gupta Dynasty will encounter a strong resistance, so I really can’t hit it hard. He has already looked for a good landing direction, starting from a small country in the southwest of the Gupta Dynasty, and has even begun to make related plans.

"Asan's navy has been trying to counterattack recently." Li Mai is in charge of naval battles. There is no one here who knows the movements of the Gupta dynasty better than him: "They have assembled a fleet of more than 1,500 ships. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com We evaded fighting at sea. They dare not attack the Pingman Captain's Headquarters again. They are forming a formation to deal with our attack."

   Recently, the Gupta dynasty’s navy has been very active. With the number of warships in the Han state far less than that of the Gupta dynasty, the Han’s navy has been unable to completely block the Gupta navy on the coast. In addition to the necessary harassment, the Chinese navy gave way to the coastal blockade, and the confrontation between the two sides was transferred to the later Bay of Bengal area.

  Hanwen wants to land on the Asan site, so 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 carry out effective deployment. In his plan, he said that he wanted to start with that small country, but the necessary confusion about the Gupta dynasty must also be carried out. It was not that the Gupta dynasty could not judge where the Han army would land from, but that the Gupta dynasty should firmly believe that the Han army would be there. Think of landing somewhere.

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

The previous cross-sea landing in the Mediterranean is not something Huan Wen can find for research now. He can only think about the long history of the march and the many paintings, and after making a rough direction, he magically discovered that there is a detail, and more There are too many details about how to log in, there are too many details about how to log in, and there are even endless details after logging in.

   "General." Li Mai said to Huan Wen embarrassedly: "With the current number of warships in our army, I am afraid it will be difficult to engage in a battle with Asan. We need more warships."
