Chapter 692

"Hot, it's too hot!"

Si Hongzhuang was lying on a bamboo chair, leaving only a pair of shorts. Rao was still covered with sweat. His muscles were as solid as steel.

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

Every region of the earth has its own climate. Some places are cold in the four seasons (North and south poles), some places will always be hot (the Middle East and some desert areas), some areas where the four seasons will rotate will also be cold (close to the north and south poles), and few places are hot in the four seasons.

Due to the longitude and latitude of South Asia, it will be relatively hot all year round. That kind of heat is not only hot, but usually dull. If there is another lack of water, it will be very hot in summer.

In fact, the area where pingman Colonel's headquarters is located is OK. It's hot, but it's like the extremely hot stage in the Central Plains. If it doesn't look stuffy, the Han people stationed here will feel very hot, but they can tolerate it. The problem is that it's difficult to adapt to the heat and stuffy.

In the sultry heat, the Han Army stationed in the captain's Department of pingman school has reduced the amount of training. The reason is that there have been accidents in the high-intensity training under the sultry heat, and some taxi soldiers who can't adapt to it have died of illness.

Heat death is almost impossible to prevent. People's constitutions are different. In the same environment, some people can do nothing, but others will have an accident. In terms of diseases, they should not only rely on their own quality, but also have treatment means.

When the Han army came to this place, it was destined to meet many people who had not met in the Central Plains, such as diseases.

"It's a disease called malaria." Fu Wei said with lingering fear, "if you get that kind of disease, you will get hot all over first. You won't smell anything. You will soon have diarrhea and vomit at the same time."

At least they know what disease they have. They don't simply classify it as acclimatized. They even understand that it is because they are bitten by mosquitoes.

About how to treat malaria, the Central Plains actually developed relevant prescriptions in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. The researcher is Zhang Zhongjing. He has been studying how to treat the plague all his life and wrote the great book on typhoid and miscellaneous diseases. Although the treatise on typhoid and miscellaneous diseases does not mention the treatment of malaria, some theories are the same.

The prescription given by the center to deal with malaria in the state of Han is actually that Liu Yan just knows how to treat it. The source is jiemalai powder in Puji Fang.

The Han people did not rush into the Indochina Peninsula as soon as they were hot. They were prepared to the greatest extent in advance, including how to deal with known diseases.

Si Hongzhuang got up from his recliner, went to the balcony of the bamboo building and looked at the soldiers in the square in the distance.

In the sweltering summer, the Han army must no longer wear thick war robes. Liu Yan will not make some low-level mistakes, such as making people stationed in the hot zone have no summer uniforms and troops in the cold area have no winter uniforms.

When Si Hongzhuang saw the soldiers, they 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 in non war. You should wear armor when you want to fight. No matter how hot the armor is, you should wear it to protect your life.

"I heard that ah San is hotter than ours." Fu Wei was more or less fastidious. He wore a whole set of summer military uniforms: "it's hot enough here. It's hard to imagine how hot ah San is there."

There is a thermometer in the Gupta Dynasty, vagadoga and other three countries. The temperature in summer is basically about 45 degrees, and in some areas it can even reach 50 degrees. It's really very hot.

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

It sounds reasonable, but it's bullshit. What kind of skin is human depends on genes. It should be black skin. Even moving to the North Pole will not change the skin color brought by genes.

The ice water in Si Hongzhuang's hand is artificially made, but it's not moved from anywhere.

Artificial ice making will seem complicated if you don't understand it. In fact, that's the case when you understand it. Just when Liu Yan was curious about reading relevant crossing novels, he went to find information and tried it by hand. Many things in the Han Dynasty are from Liu Yan, and so is artificial ice.

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

Pingman military academy has been operated by Han people for half a year. Of course, the land developed is larger, but it is not built according to the habits of Zhuxia. For example, the buildings vary from place to place.

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

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

Other regions have their own crops. Besides rice, they are all kinds of beans. They are all kinds of vegetables brought from the mainland. The scope of the farm is much larger than that of the military camp. If people who don't know it come and have a look, they will definitely think that the farm is more like a military base.

Of course, production is for self-sufficiency. Huanwen also specially asked people to find a wetland to raise chickens, ducks and geese. He had wanted to find grassland, but there was no grassland at all in such a place. Cattle and sheep could graze, but it was difficult to find a place to raise horses.

"The big man has made a limited alliance with Sasan." Huan Wen is dressed in silk. He looks good. He looks like a romantic childe, but his temperament is extremely rigid. He paused, glanced around the generals and schools, and continued after a little while: "the Persians will fight side by side with us next."

In dealing with the Gupta Dynasty, the Han state not only formed a military alliance with the Persian Sassan, but also two satraps, the tidoro Dynasty and the karabalas. The five countries will target the Gupta Dynasty together, but the tidoro Dynasty and the karabalas will not directly participate in the war.

The jidora Dynasty contributes to diplomatic relations. They will lobby the countries around the Gupta Dynasty. Even those countries should remain neutral if they do not join the war against the Gupta Dynasty.

Karabalas was pulled into this alliance by Persian sassanne because Persian sassanne valued the geographical location of karabalas. Persian Sassanian wants to send troops. The fleet needs a garrison to leave the mainland and enter the Persian sea (Arabian Sea). Karabalas, located at the southernmost end of the A3 territory, is very suitable. It can not only provide supplies for Persian Sassanian, but also go ashore for rest. Otherwise, it is too far to go directly from the mainland of bossassanian to the pingman colonel.

"It's good for them to join." Yuan Qiao is also dressed in silk. With the support of his temperament, he is more like your son than Huan Wen. He thought for a moment and asked, "how many troops will be sent?"

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

In fact, the alliance is also divided into primary and secondary. The alliance of many countries (forces) also needs to have a leader. Otherwise, who should listen to whom?

Of course, the state of Han attaches great importance to the local military alliance against the Gupta Dynasty. The A3 territory is too far away from the mainland of the state of Han. The state of Han is very strong and gives one point at most. More helpers are naturally willing, but it has not yet understood why Persian Sassanian is so keen and has a certain sense of vigilance.

Ikianush Alta The Persian Sassanian mission led by Al Dahir is in a hurry. They still want to be the boss of this local military alliance, but they really don't dare to open that mouth rashly.

In the view of Persian Sassanian, they invited two satraps, jidoro Dynasty and karabalas to join in. Han didn't even know those countries before. Since those countries were invited by Persian sassanne, Persian sassanne has a great dominant power. Moreover, Persian sassanne is at least the overlord of Central Asia. It is entirely reasonable to become the leader of this military alliance under various factors.

Then the problem comes. According to bossasan's understanding of the Han people, the Han people are a proud nation, and any proud and powerful nation can never give up the dominant power. Moreover, Persian sassanne also understood that it was they who took the initiative to join, not at the invitation of the Han state, that they had clearly talked about the alliance, but did not distinguish between the main and auxiliary positions.

"Obviously, those countries must listen to sassanne." Yuan Qiao didn't need to consume more brain cells at all. He said, "the big man never knew those countries. They must not know how the big man exists. He has never had contact with them. He can't talk about friendship with them. Only one victory over ah San is not enough to deter him."

"So..." Si Hongzhuang frowned at first, then said fiercely, "are the Persians going to compete for the fruits of victory?"

Si Hongzhuang has the reason to think so. The Han state took the lead in fighting with the Gupta Dynasty, and won the first battle. It is not possible that those countries thought that the Gupta Dynasty was easy to bully, and Hula came to get a share of the alliance.

As for bossasan's clear proposal that there will be no land demand, as long as it involves the national level, let alone commitment, it is useless. Even what is written in writing can be torn up at any time, and it can't be taken seriously at all.

Huan Wen must have thought about similar problems. For example, bossashan and other countries think that the Gupta king is easy to bully. For example, the Han state is too far away from assan's territory. When he finds that the Gupta king is easy to bully, the Han state takes the lead and can't wait to take advantage of it.

"The alliance is a foregone conclusion." Huan Wen set the tone first so that no one would say something embarrassing to everyone. His fingers beat the table in front of him rhythmically and said, "the center has no other instructions."

Several countries want to unite to bully the Gupta Dynasty. There is only a big intention about how to cooperate. For example, the two satraps marched from the northwest of the Gupta Dynasty, the Gupta Dynasty used diplomatic relations to make trouble for the Gupta Dynasty, and karabalas provided supplies and rest places for the Persian Sassan army, but there is no explanation on the details.

Huan Wen felt a little better that the center had no new instructions, which meant that this war could let him play freely. On the other hand, he thinks that the center allows them to do their own things. Before the center has no new orders, they can leave the so-called allies and do their own things.

"An alliance is an alliance. Even if there is a plan, there should be time to prepare." Yuan Qiao knew what was going on when he saw Huan Wen's attitude. How else can he say that the two partners have a full tacit understanding? He followed Huan Wen's direction and said, "I don't know when those allies will be ready."

"Yes." Si Hongzhuang really didn't feel that he needed any allies to deal with the Gupta Dynasty. He said, "doesn't the general have a plan?"

Huan Wen has been looking for a breakthrough. If he lands directly from the coast of the Gupta Dynasty, he will encounter strong resistance, so he really can't hit it. He has found a good landing direction, starting from a small country in the southwest of the Gupta Dynasty, and even has begun to make relevant plans.

"Ah San's navy has been trying to fight back recently." Li Mai is in charge of the naval battle. There is no one here who knows the trend of the Gupta Navy better than him: "they have assembled a fleet of more than 1500 ships. We evade the battle at sea. They dare not invade the pingman Colonel again. They are organizing a broken attack formation to deal with us."

Recently, the Gupta navy has been very active. Under the current situation that the number of warships in the Han Dynasty is far less than that of the Gupta Navy, the Han navy has been unable to completely block the Gupta Navy along the coast. In addition to the necessary attacks, the Chinese Navy gave way to the blockade of the coast, and the confrontation between the two sides was transferred to the bay of Bengal in later generations.

If Huan Wen wants to land on assan territory, he must once again hit the Gupta Navy and block the Gupta Navy in the port before effective deployment can be carried out. In his plan, he said that he wanted to attack that small country, but the necessary confusion of the Gupta Dynasty had to be carried out. It was not that the Gupta Dynasty could not judge where the Han army would land, but that the Gupta Dynasty should firmly believe that the Han army would land at a place they thought.

In fact, it is also difficult for Huan Wen. In the history of world war so far, not only did Zhuxia civilization not have such a large-scale cross sea landing invasion, but other civilizations did not have such a large-scale.

Huan Wen can't find the data to study the Mediterranean Sea crossing landing. He only thinks about it with Commander Shi and many praises and paintings, and makes a general direction. He magically finds that after having a detail, more details emerge. There are too many details for strategic confusion, and there are many details about how to land, Even after 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'm afraid it's difficult to fight with ah San. We need more warships."
