Chapter 738: A Map That Subverts Ideas

Just when Yuan Shao wanted to die in the Battle of Jieqiao, Fei Qian summoned all the generals and held a battle meeting against Xianbei.

Of course, this combat meeting still did not include the Southern Xiongnu, but only aimed at Yu Feiqian's series of personnel, including Zhao Yun, of course.

When Fei Qian thought of this, he couldn't help but be happy, and even Zhao Yun's square face didn't feel any sense of disobedience.

In the Han Dynasty, such a man was the standard for handsome guys, and as for the kind of sissies in later generations, uh, there were some, but it was not acceptable to most people......

Think about it, if Zhao Yun was really as tactful as Long Yangjun in the Four Gentlemen of the Spring and Autumn Period, it is estimated that he would have been included in the harem by that big guy a long time ago, where would he be reduced to the point where he wandered in Liaodong for a long time before following Liu Bei?

However, Zhao Yun's age doesn't seem to match Fei Qian's memory, doesn't it mean that he was only eighteen years old when he appeared, and now it looks like he is at least in his twenties, but this is not important, the important thing is Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun......

Fei subconsciously licked his lips, and then rubbed the saliva that was faintly about to flow out by touching his chin and beard, and then said with a serious face: "Take the map!" ”

Several guards propped up a parchment roll with a wooden stand and placed it behind Fei Sneak.

Fei Qian coughed, then stood up, ready to explain to Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Ma Yue, and Zhang Ji, and then Xu Huang and the others also hurriedly stood up together and stood next to the sheepskin map.

"The so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles." Fei Qian pointed to the open parchment scroll, made a cliché opening statement, and then continued, "We, the big man, are in this area now...... And I'm here now......"

This map is actually very simple, neither the accurate cities and towns are marked, but even the main roads of the hills and rivers are only represented by some simple symbols, but even so, it also gives a great shock to the people in the big tent.

Especially after seeing that the territory of the Han Dynasty only occupied a small area of the map......

At the beginning, Fei Qian relied on his memory, and then integrated some of the original map data of the Han Dynasty, when he drew it, even Xu Shu, a person with a more out-of-the-box thinking, couldn't accept it, and argued with Fei Qian for a long time, and even the content of the Classic of Mountains and Seas was moved out, and then it was examined to Dayu Dingtianxia Kyushu, and finally half-believed it.

Although this fact somewhat hurts self-esteem.

The Han Dynasty, or China, was not a boxy piece of land, or even the center of the world......

In fact, the distance and time from the Han Dynasty to the four directions, if you want to be very accurate, there is still some difficulty when there is no effective tool for statistics, but if you only need a general concept, in fact, it has been almost done before the Han Dynasty, but many people ignore it.

This is still when Fei Qian and Huang Yueying came to Pingyang to chat, because in ancient times, many times it was expressed as rhetoric, and it was often used as an approximation, what thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, thousands of miles of scenery, etc., these poems or historical records can not reflect the distance more clearly, but the famous gallop road of the Qin Dynasty can.

The Qin Dynasty's Chi Road has Shangjun Road, Linjin Road, Dongfang Road, Wuguan Road, Plank Road, West Road, Straight Road, Binhai Road, these roads are almost built to the most marginal place of China at that time, although there are some historical books that record these roads were damaged in the war, but there are still some leftovers, for example, in the historical records, there are many places to mention that the distance of the straight road is 1,800 miles......

Of course, this data is not very accurate, but it also provides a little evidence of how far the territory of the Han Dynasty is in the four directions.

Therefore, when Fei Qian held up the map of the territory of the Han Dynasty, almost everyone couldn't believe it, but looking at Fei Qian's serious expression, their eyes widened and their hearts were shaken.

When Fei Qian was talking about the Xianbei area in the north while gesturing, even Xu Huang, who was calm, couldn't sit still, opened his mouth wide, obviously wanting to say something, but in the end he endured it.

Ma Yue was relatively lively, and he had been following Fei Qian for some time, but he couldn't help it, and arched his hand: "Lord, how can Xianbei have such a large area, isn't it ......?"

"Bigger than our Han Dynasty?" Fei Qian completed what Ma Yue had not finished speaking, then raised his eyebrows and said, "Unfortunately, this is indeed the case, but in a large area north of Yinshan, it is not of much use for the time being, with low temperatures and drought all year round, it is not suitable for farming, at most it is only used for grazing...... However, this area, the birthplace of the Xianbei people, is very suitable for farming if the cold can be eliminated...... Our side is yellow earth, and the land over there is black earth......"

"So the south is red land?" Huang Xu, who was standing on the side, listened attentively, and couldn't help answering, and then found that everyone was looking at him, and scratched the back of his neck with a little embarrassment.

"Well, the soil in the south is indeed red in the South Vietnam, in fact, the so-called five elements with five colors also have a certain truth......" For some theories of the ancients, Fei Qian sometimes feels very admired, maybe it is a coincidence, maybe it is a kind of prophetic exploration, and then came to such a conclusion.

Fei Qian nodded at Huang Xu, then ended the topic and continued: "Therefore, Xianbei's strategic depth ...... Well, what do you mean by that...... That is to say, the place where Xianbei can assemble and exercise, and even break away from the battle is very large, coupled with the unique grazing habits of the Hu people, so as long as there is water and grass, it is equivalent to continuing to live, and for us Han people, we must travel long distances to transport grain and grass......"

Fei Qian sighed and said: "If you don't solve the problem of long-distance grain and grass transportation, or if you don't solve the problem of long-distance grain and grass transportation, or if you go completely similar to the grazing way of the Hu people, you can fight in such a large area as Xianbei, once there is a problem with the supply of food and equipment, the consequences will be quite serious...... We've done this for many of our predecessors......"

The information asymmetry between the authorities and the soldiers led to the fact that many generals in the Han Dynasty were either exhausted and exhausted in the desert in vain, or were blocked by the Xiongnu at that time on the way home.

Fei Qian stretched out two fingers and said, "So, there are only two relatively good ways to fight the Hu people......
