~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In May, the East China Sea is white and the sand is thin, and the sound of gulls are chirping.
Nearly a thousand war horses were rushing, with their manes flying, their long neighing and shaking the sky, and their dense hooves were like thunder, galloping on the wide beach, roaring and having fun.
Half of the five hundred general guard soldiers had rarely seen the sea, and half had not seen the sea for too long. They all ran happily, and the fun was not less than that of war horses.
A girl sat quietly on the hillside, looking at the blue waves from afar, sucking in the sea breeze, and her pretty face was filled with pleasant enjoyment.
Ma Han walked behind the girl, reached out and pressed her shoulders, and said softly: "How does it feel?"
The girl looked back and it was Mi Zhen, and she smiled: "No matter how good it is, there will be nothing."
Mi Fang, who was following Ma Han, shook her head: "Huahua Luoyang can't get used to it, and she actually had to return to the East China Sea to be comfortable. Little sister, little sister..."
Mi Zhen's lower abdomen was slightly amplified and she was pregnant. As early as four months ago, the doctor had diagnosed Mi Zhen with joy, and everyone in the house was happy. However, Mi Zhen's pregnancy reaction was quite serious, and she vomited as much as she took, was in a state of indifference, and she felt weak and weak. Because she was pregnant and had taboos in various medicines, even the doctor was at a loss now.
Finally, Zhang Zhongjing suggested that it is better to let Mrs. Ru return to the place where she was born and raised and bathe in water and soil to nourish her body, which may be effective.
It just so happened that Ma Han was about to arrive in Xuzhou, so he took Mi Zhen with him and walked a long journey. After nearly two months of travel, he finally arrived in the East China Sea. Not to mention, he was still dozens of miles away from Qu County. When he smelled the familiar salty and fishy sea breeze, Mi Zhen looked radiant and energetic. He tasted delicious and didn't vomit anymore.
Ma Han was both happy and emotional when he saw it. Sure enough, people really have roots.
So he decided to let Mi Zhen live in his parents' home until he gave birth to the child safely, took good care of his health, and then returned to Luoyang. Ma Han also took advantage of this leisure time to accompany his concubine who was pregnant with Liujia, because he was not sure whether he would be with him when his fourth child was born.
When Ma Han went to the East China Sea, it was not as simple as accompanying his concubine to return home. He wanted to hold a pre-war meeting here.
Ma Han's general guards were 100% from northerners, and more than 100 of them were even in the extreme north. They crossed mountains and forests like flat ground. The forests and snow fields were as easy as they could deal with Yuru even in high-altitude hypoxic areas. However, when they first entered Huaibei mist and rain, they were trembling with the boats and crossing the water. Except for some of the team members who were forced to go into the sea by Ma Han many years ago, overcame their fear of water at the cost of filling the salty and bitter sea water, and they performed calmly. Most of the players who were later promoted were quite terrible.
The more this happens, the more determined the guards he is in training. What he wants is a guard who can fight tigers and catch turtles in the sea. What is going on?
During this period, Guan Cheng from Yuzhou Mountain Island has continuously sent ships of all sizes to pick up and drop off general guards and carried them to the island in batches for closed training. Ma Han's requirement is that within one month, all entourages must meet the standard of not being dizzy on a boat and not sinking into the water. Those who fail to meet this standard will stay on Yuzhou Mountain Island to continue training and are not qualified to participate in the war.
Three days ago, Ma Han received a letter from the Eagle Eagle Group in Xuzhou to report on the results of this diplomatic mission.
Cao Cao declined.
Sun Ce was granted the title of General of the Hu Ben and entered Luoyang. Sun Ce said that the people in the south were not used to the north and only wanted to be the prefect of Wu County. This move was like Cao Cao.
The position Liu Bei received was Wei Wei, one of the nine ministers, and he was the host of the palace guard, which was his identity as the royal relative. Liu Bei cried with gratitude and said that he would eliminate the thieves for the country and take office after pacifying the place. Well, there are more than Yuan Shu in the country, but pacifying the place... This is something that even Ma Han dared not say will be accomplished in the short term. It seems that this "Uncle" used the procrastination technique.
Liu Biao was the most powerful in territory and received the highest position - Situ, who was above the Nine Ministers. According to Kong Rong, Liu Biao was still a little hesitant, but his subordinates, such as the Cai family, seemed to be quite moved and were actively lobbying.
The distance between Huang Zu in Jiangxia is too far, and no news has been heard back in the first fashion.
The one who responded the most positively at the moment is Yuan Shu.
For Yuan Shu, Ma Han gave up the position of Taichangqing. Taichangqing is the leader of the nine ministers, who is in charge of the affairs of the ancestral temple and generally does not participate in specific administrative affairs. From this position, we can see Ma Han's good intentions. This is obviously a retirement position, with a noble status but no real power, which is most suitable for a vain prince like Yuan Shu. Taichangqing is usually held by the Liu clan relatives. Letting Yuan Shu take this position is an exception and a slap in the face - since you have ever planned to rebel, then go to worship and repent in front of the Han Dynasty ancestral temple every day.
For the crimes committed by Yuan Shu, if you die a hundred times, you will be able to redeem your fault. If you still refuse without knowing whether to at least refuse, you will be extinguished from the court.
With Yuan Shu's situation at this time, it was like pulling him out of the fire pit. Therefore, Yuan Shu's statement was: I would like to listen to the general's defeat.
The reactions of the above princes were expected by Ma Han, especially the three ambitious guys Cao, Sun and Liu. If a decree could make them enter the capital obediently, that would be a strange story in the world. It would be better if the Southern Expedition was a slap and a fight, and diplomatic and military practices were both in both hands. Those who obeyed would eat dates; if they were not convinced, they would eat beats.
Just as Ma Han was conceiving the plan for the southern expedition, he suddenly heard Mi Zhen’s close-fitting maid’s sachet and shouted happily: “Here’s here, come, they are here!”
The horse man looked up, and the sea and sky were white sails, like clouds coming from the north; the smoke and dust in the southwest were open, and the flags were faint.
Ma Han smiled and came to those who were dissatisfied with the consequences.
...
At the end of May, General Nan, General Nan, General Nan, and General Taishi Ci of Qingzhou; General Yangwei, General Nan, and the left-level supervisor of the navy, led 8,000 Dragon Wolf Xu Lin Army, 5,000 Bohai Army, various warships, and transport more than 500 ships to the East China Sea.
At the same time, General Zhennan, Le Jin, the governor of Yanzhou, Zhang Liao, the prefect of Dongjun, Gao Shun, the prefect of Shanyang, Tao Ying, the commander of Pei, Cheng Lian, the governor of Pei, Mi Zhu, the governor of Xuzhou, Chen Deng, the prefect of Guangling, and Zang Ba, the prime minister of Langya, also gathered in the East China Sea. In addition, Guo Jia, Xun You, the strategist who traveled with Ma Han, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Chen Dao, and the powerful generals of the navy, Guan Cheng...
For a moment, heroes gathered and the situation suddenly rose.
On the third day of June, the pre-military military congress (i.e., the East China Sea Military Constitution), a milestone in the history of the Three Kingdoms in this time and space, was officially held.
On this day, Qu County Mi Mansion was surrounded by soldiers from one after another; teams of patrolmen showed almost no gap, and open and secret whistles were everywhere; the whistle was even released for thirty miles, and even a stray dog was allowed to enter within this range.
At this time, in the spacious palace, the Dragon Wolf Army generals gathered together. This inconspicuous mansion gathered most of the essence of the Dragon Wolf Army, including the Dragon Wolf Army, which can even be said to be the soul figure of the Han Dynasty - Ma Han. This security level is definitely the highest level.
At this time, the generals who should have sat upright and listened to their lord's guidance were surrounded by a giant sand table, pointing and talking, and couldn't hide their excitement and excitement on their faces.
Among the generals present, only Guo Jia, Xun You, Le Jin, Chen Dao and others participated in the war chess performance in the battle of Guandu. Most of the generals had never seen the real sand table, nor did they see the war chess performance. Even Guo Jia, Xun You, Le Jin, Chen Dao and others had never seen the war chess performance in the water, and the surprise was no less than everyone else.
This giant Jianghuai sand table was made as early as the beginning of the year. Unlike the Guandu Battle sand table, the former is a local sand table, which shows all the terrain of Guandu Battle in a very large and small way; while the Jianghuai sand table covers the three states of Yu, Jing, Yang, and some Xuzhou terrain. It is unrealistic and impossible to show it in detail on a bed-sized sand table.
This sand table focuses on land such as mountains and plains, but water - important main tributaries of the Yangtze River, Huai River, Han River, and Zhejiang River.
The proportion of mountains and flat ground was deliberately reduced, while rivers, lakes and seas were magnified ten times. In addition to infantry, cavalry and vehicles, clay soldiers also had a large number of warships made of wooden strips and pieces, which could be called handicrafts.
Rivers, lakes, seas, mountains and mountains, city gates, hundreds of boats compete to compete, the entire sand table gives people a strong visual impact of "the map of the country and the country entering the war".
"You guys, today's meeting is the theme of the Southern Expedition. I don't want to talk too much about it. A war game will win countless debates." Ma Han walked to the sand table with his hands, reached out to draw a half-arc above the sand table, looked around the generals, and said, "Old rule, divide into two teams, hold white as my Dragon Wolf Army, and hold black as the forces of Jianghuai. You can use all your strengths, try your best to attack each other, and don't have any worries. Now I think more, and I will lose less in the future; think more, and I will win faster. I will not participate, just do arbitration. Come on, Fengxiao, Gongda, Ziyi, Wenqian, form a team."
In the new battlefield, the old opponents, Guo Jia and Xun You began to fight war games again, and joined forces with Taishi Ci and Le Jin. The other generals formed their own teams and chose the black and white side freely. However, most of them wanted to choose white, and very few of them took the initiative to choose black. As a result, they were driven by the "arbitration" Ma Han.
In the last round of chess, Guandu only involved tactics, and it was good to have a fight at the opening, but this time it involved changes in strategy, tactics, diplomacy, and various political tendencies. The situation was ten times more complicated than Guandu.
Although Guo Jia and Xun You are familiar with this sand table and have played a lot of games on weekdays, no one dares to be careless in the face of this unprecedented complex new situation, rack their brains and use their own methods. Taishi Ci and Le Jin are responsible for specific tactical attacks. The two sides have been fighting each other for nearly an hour, and it is difficult to distinguish.
The generals gradually realized the trick and were full of interest. They made suggestions and each helped one side.
Ma Han smiled with his hands behind his back. He believed that after this intuitive and vivid three-dimensional strategy and tactic teaching class, all the generals who directly or indirectly participated in the southern expedition would have a game of chess in mind about the situation in Jianghuai and Jingnan. In this way, they could be called "generals". Only under the leadership of generals who have a broad mind and know themselves and their opponents, they would be expected to achieve the final victory of the southern expedition.
