How did Shah Rukh know that Ji Ling's real base was in the middle reaches of the Irrawaddy River, hundreds of kilometers north of this place. (Pinyin for biqi u)

Occupying the base, Shah Rukh can be regarded as a temporary shelter, so he decided to advance steadily and steadily to the north step by step, and in a month, he can always find the real base of the Han army and obtain food for the Han army.

After a day's rest, the 200,000-strong army divided into two teams, land and water, and slowly marched from south to north.

Along the way to the north, two hundred kilometers, Shah Rukh obtained two empty bases, and found very limited food.

After three days of continuous marching, it took a decent base to be found.

This base is the northernmost base that Pang Tong has stationed when he hunted elephants here.

Shah Rukh found what he wanted most right now, some food.

Although it looks small, only about 100,000 kilograms, it is enough for his team to eat for a day, which is a good sign.

And so the tragedy began again.

Ji Ling and Wen Ping won a victory that seemed inexplicable to outsiders.

The two declared that the Amirdi* had perished in a sudden plague.

Believe it or not, the facts cannot be explained, and after the battle ended, Ji Ling and Wen Ping silently burned the letter paper in the bag.

As a result, some historical truths were drowned in flames.

Many years later, the "Chenhe Chronicles" contained: In the thirteenth year of Jian'an (the twenty-sixth year of the Chenhe River), 300,000 troops of the Western Amir Empire conquered the east, and all died of plague in the Irrawaddy River Valley.

In order to make the plague more thorough, Ji Ling and Wen Ping directly wiped out all the military horses of the Amir army that were lucky not to die, and captured more than 500 warships and more than 300,000 gunpowder guns. This is Amir's savings for twenty years, and it was wiped out at one time.

When the battle report came to Jiangxia, Yang Xi gasped.

He didn't expect such a good effect, with Yang Xi's prediction, the first success was certain, but he didn't expect that the second time he could use the same method to get the entire army at once.

This is probably the earliest biochemical warfare.

This year is 208 AD, the thirteenth year of Jian'an, and it is also the year of the Battle of Chibi.

But all this with the addition of Yang Xi, in the future, it will no longer be in the year of the Common Era, but in the year of "Chenhe".

Later generations called 183 years as the first year of Chenhe.

Then this year will be "the twenty-sixth year of Chenhe".

In the twenty-sixth year of Chenhe, there was no battle of Chibi, no great aura of Zhou Yu, only a plague, which took away the 300,000 troops of the Amir Empire.

The Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, on the other hand, lost 5,000 stone of grain, or 155,000 kilograms!

According to Yang Xi's order, Wen hired Ji Ling to leave enough men and horses to gather 100,000, and he led the remaining soldiers and horses to the south along the Andaman Sea and returned to the Wuchang Strait.

The carrier pigeon was as early as the second day after the end of the war, it had been transmitted to the Wuchang Strait, Pang Tong was overjoyed, and it was sent back to Nanhai Island, I believe that it would not take a few days, Yang Xi could see the battle report in Jiangxia.

Wen Ping returned to the Wuchang Strait, and Pang Tong set up a banquet to wash the dust for the whole army.

During the banquet, Pang Tong, Wen Ping and Lei Zi tacitly did not mention the matter, and the matter will be sealed in a corner of several people's minds, and it will slowly fade.

Wen Ping's short expedition gave the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce at least five years to settle down, and he also brought back gold that could be squandered by the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce for half a year.

This is the result of five months of Ji Ling's efforts in the Irrawaddy River.

After Ji Ling's army expanded to 100,000, he was already able to control the entire Irrawaddy River Valley.

There is one unit that has made great contributions in this battle, and that is the special forces Huya.

The 1st Yellow Shooting Battalion of the Huya Army has detected the enemy's movements many times, and has successfully sniped the enemy's hot air balloon detection team from the ground and even the sky in a timely manner, making great contributions.

Huang Jie served for three years, and was actually promoted from an ordinary Huya special forces soldier with the rank of corporal to captain.

Wen Ping and Pang Tong led 100,000 troops to return to the north, and left Lei Zi to lead 100,000 troops and continue to stay in Southeast Asia.

Pang Tong left 50,000 gunpowder guns each for Lei Zi and Ji Ling, and as for the ammunition, he would arrange for the merchant ships of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce to send it.

In July, the sun was like fire, but Yang Xi didn't feel hot at all.

He even personally went from Jiangxia to Shanghai Port to welcome the return of Pang Tong's army.

In Shanghai City, Yang Xi received Pang Tong and Wen Ping's army, and awarded Pang Tong, Wen Ping, and Ji Ling gold medals on the spot.

Naturally, Pang Tong's military rank was promoted to the first general in Chenhe District and a four-star general.

As early as June, Cao Cao had more than 100,000 soldiers in Jingzhou, 20,000 soldiers and horses in Yiling and Jiangling from west to east from the north of the Yangtze River, and 30,000 soldiers each in Xiangyang in the north and Xiyang County in the south of Huaishui, which could go south at any time.

Yang Xi directly ordered Pang Tong to be the commander-in-chief of the four group armies of Jiangxia County, Chenhe County, and Jingnan County, and had jurisdiction over the Jingnan Theater, Chenhe County Theater, and Jiangxia Theater Commanders. Lu Meng, commander of the Jingnan Theater, Mao Luan, commander of the Jiangxia Theater, and Wen Ping, commander of the Chenhe County Theater, were all under the command of Pang Tong.

The commander-in-chief headquarters of Pang Tong was located on the left side of Lishan in the north of Anlu, and began to build a city here, named Dawu City, and set up Dawu County.

Lü Meng still stationed 60,000 soldiers and horses in the two counties of Changsha and Wuling in Jingnan. Wenpin Zetun 60,000 soldiers and horses in Wuchang County and Huarong County. As for Maoluan, it is naturally directly stationed in Yundu, the closest to Xiangyang, and Dawu, the closest to Xiyang, and there are also 60,000 military horses.

In this way, the entire Western Front Theater, the part bordering Cao Cao and Yizhou, Yang Xi was equivalent to handing over all of them to Pang Tong to deal with.

--

Sun Quan was shocked when he received Zhou Yu's battle report that Amir's 300,000-strong army had been wiped out by the plague on the Irrawaddy River.

He naturally suspected that Yang Xi had used some special means to destroy the army of the Amir Empire. But with his IQ, how could he really think of the insider.

No one can imagine it.

Now that the threat from the Amir Empire was lifted, Sun Quan immediately ordered Zhou Yu to lead the army back to Jiaozhou to discuss a strategy to take Shu.

Zhou Yu only left 20,000 troops and horses to guard Tai County, Laos County and Yue County, led 80,000 troops himself, and returned to Jiaozhi County, Jiaozhou.

After the research of Sun Quan's group, it is believed that even if Liu Bei does not plan to go south, he now has the strength to attack Bashu.

In the fifth year of Yuan Feng, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up 13 departments of history in the country, Sichuan region is the Yizhou Department, the state is governed in Luo County, in the next few hundred years, it has been divided into Shu County, Qianwei County, Zhuti County, Yueshan County, Ke County, Jianning County, Yongchang County, Hanzhong County, Guanghan County, Zitong County, Ba County, Brazil County, Badong County, Yizhou County and other counties, under the jurisdiction of 146 counties. Yizhou is located in the Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan and Hanzhong basins of Shaanxi.

Sun Quan's coveting of this place is not unreasonable. When the population of the Eastern Han Dynasty was the largest, the population of Yizhou reached 4 million, and although there are many wars and natural disasters for many years, the population of Yizhou still has more than 2 million people.

Facing the map, Zhou Yu analyzed: "Now the lord wants to take Shu land, but he doesn't need to worry about Liu Bei's uncooperation. Liu Bei occupies Hanzhong, if the lord takes Bashu, even if there is a danger of mountains and rivers in Hanzhong, he cannot block Cao Cao and the lord from both sides, so Liu Bei will inevitably send troops. But even if Liu Bei sent troops, it must be very few, and the reason is still from Cao Cao's pressure. ”

"Since Gong Jin also agrees with this matter, then send troops to Bashu. However, the land of Bashu is dangerous, but how can you get in? Sun Quan was worried that he would not be able to enter Shu.

Zhou Yu pointed his finger on the map, along Panyu City all the way to the northwest, to Tsing Yi County on the side of the Bashu Tsing Yi River.

"This ancient road communicates Tsing Yi County (Lushan County, Sichuan), Nan'an County (Leshan), Yandao County (Yibin) through the Tsing Yi River, enters Nanyi Road, Fenguan Mountain (Yunnan Weixin), Pingyi County (Bijie, Guizhou), Hanyang (Hezhang, Liuzhi, Guizhou), connects the Ke River (the upper reaches of the Beipan River), and goes up and down Panyu along the Ke River, but it can be a route for me to march."

It turned out that what Zhou Yu was referring to was the famous Yelang Ancient Road.

This is the "Historical Records" recorded in the Western Han Dynasty from Shu to transport wolfberry sauce through Yelang to Panyu ancient road.

This ancient road is mostly through the waterway, in Yizhou Qiqi County, it is mainly based on the Qiqi River, along the river to the southeast, into the Pearl River into Guangzhou.

Since Sun Quan occupied Jiaozhou, he has long seen the benefits of water transportation, and he is vigorously developing shipping.

The Pearl River is one of the top three rivers in the world, and the runoff of the Huai River is more than ten times.
