Sweep the World

For countries with coastlines, generally prosperous economic zones will be in coastal areas, and coastal areas will inevitably bear more than half of the country’s tax revenue.

The expeditionary fleet came all the way and shelled at least 27 cities, three of which were landed and plundered, and the seven cities were completely burned to ruins.

Two Satrap is not a strong economically powerful country. Their main business is grazing, but based on the current economic structure, grazing is to ensure that they have enough horses, cattle, sheep and camels. , In fact, not much money is made.

In those coastal cities, there are a few of them as trade transit areas of other countries. Before that, there were a large number of Persians and people from Gupta, and a small number of Romans, Egyptians, and Pontians.

After the Han Empire joined in, there were a lot more Han people.

Only when the war broke out, the navy of the Han Empire often carried out cruising blockades, and there was actually no one other than the Han on the sea routes.

"In the list they gave, there are 261 Han Chinese, and more than 3,000 related servants." Yuan Qiao held the two documents sent by Satrap, which was a kind of dry parchment. . He said to Huan Wen: "This is only the first batch, and there will be more later."

The expeditionary fleet has already received the envoys of the two Satraps, and did not deliberately do anything to humiliate. However, the reception standard is at the national level. It only arranges two tents and does not give daily materials. Up is a kind of humiliation.

"Those merchants are acting very fast." Huan Wen knew who the two satraps were on the list: "It's only a few years before the big guys develop a business route. What are their business opportunities here? "

The Han must be saved. This is also one of the missions of the expeditionary fleet this time, not only to save, but also to rescue with a big fanfare. Use this cautious behavior to inform all citizens that the country will not abandon anyone, but will pay the most whenever possible. effort.

"In exchange for some common domestic trade products for precious metals here." Yuan Qiao didn't believe Huan Wen did not know what the business opportunities were: "Trade profits are usually more than 200%."

Who doesn't have a trade caravan in the big family of the Han Empire? These people, who were regarded as upper-class nobles in the Han Empire, also had at least one trading fleet under their name. At the beginning, they went to sea trade from the mainland to the Indo-China Peninsula. Later, as more and more countries were discovered, maritime trade routes were repeatedly opened up. The footsteps of the trading fleet also went further and further.

Two Satraps are not a country with any special products, they also have the homeland of the Gupta Empire that they should have. If there is a huge profit for something, it is probably some fine knives, and then horses and camels.

Tens of thousands of miles of sea travel to obtain horses and camels is an extremely uneconomical thing, unless the horses are expensive enough, but the horses on the two satraps are not unique, they have not only the Asan continent There are powerful countries in Sassanid and some other Central Asian landlocked countries.

The only ones worth buying by the Han people are those knives, which are a very special kind of Uzi steel, probably the pinnacle of current smelting technology and forging technology.

That’s right, the Persian Damascus swords were obtained either from the Indians or from the two satraps. The latter two satraps were destroyed, and the Asanmen continued to undergo dynasties to make Damascus swords. The technology became unique to the Persians.

"The other thing is some fur." ​​Yuan Qiao's position determines that once the expeditionary fleet wants to fight against which country, it must do its best to understand that country, including but not limited to military strength, mainly relying on what generates the economy. Benefits must also be mastered: "This semi-nomadic and semi-agricultural country, the best area is the coastal area after our ravages. We destroy it in a round, and they will lose at least four-tenths of their taxes in two or three years or even longer."

Huan Wen thought about it in another way.

If the coasts of the Han Empire were ravaged by such a raging period and sea trading cities such as Jingkou, Linzi, and Ma Shijin were destroyed, the first thing they would have to face would be the large number of homeless refugees, and then they would lose about 28%. The annual taxation may not be a big problem in two to three years, but the follow-up impact of the longer time will inevitably influence the success or failure of the national war.

"They should think that our main target of attack is here." Yuan Qiao made a judgment based on the reaction of the two satraps: "The Tianzhu Shogunate is very aggressive. We landed from the sea, and they were afraid of being attacked by both sides."

No country will not be afraid of war on multiple sides, especially when facing a hegemonic power such as the Han Empire, two satraps will not be one of the surprises.

"Uncle Yan's meaning is already clear to Wen." Huan Wen considered: "If they don't surrender to the Tianzhu Shogunate and surrender to us, can they accept it?"

Zhu Xia's highest level of military use is a soldier who can defeat others without fighting, especially when he leads his army on an expedition to a powerful country. As soon as the army arrives, he forces the opponent to kneel and surrender, which is regarded as the highest achievement of a military commander.

Huan Wen had a lot of auras, and he still yearned for the achievement of being able to defeat others without a fight.

Furthermore, the expeditionary fleet needs a good start, and there is no better start than just landing and intimidating two Satraps.

The question now is, what kind of surrender conditions can they negotiate.

"We need time to build this bridgehead." Yuan Qiao meant: "That is, we can't negotiate the desired result. Delaying time is also beneficial to us."

"Presumably the two satraps are already mentally prepared to cut the ground and seek peace, and they also understand that they need to pay good money for peace." Huan Wen is very serious about the conditions for the surrender of the two satraps: "They hope to leave this place. How can a war be so easy!"

The best result is that they can grab enough benefits from the two Satraps who want to break away from the war, and at the same time make the two Satraps a country that can drive, just as Zhu Xia did in repeated foreign wars, defeated. An enemy country makes this enemy country for its own use at the same time, using them to destroy or consume another enemy country.

Huan Wen clearly understands that it is not difficult to do that, especially given the premise that the two satraps have taken the lead in seeking peace, the difference is only the speed of time.

The landed cape was occupied without any brutal fighting, and then the Han army began to push toward the surrounding area and arrested the aliens who had not had time to escape, making them the next labor force to build the bridgehead.

"I don't know something." Liu Ming stepped on the red soft ground and escorted some captured prisoners together with a group of robes: "This place is barren, what do they live on?"

The captives looked very dark, but they were not of African race. In terms of race distribution, it should be from Ah San's race, not from the Serb race.

The Serb race is a kind of sub-white skin race. Zhu Xia was called the Serb a long time ago. The highest contact was in the Western Han Dynasty. According to records, it was first seen in Dawan.

Contemporary Han people already know that the Serbs have another name. The Persians call them Scythians, and this name is inherited from the Parthian Empire.

At that time, the Scythians were a powerful nation in the northern part of Parthia, enslaving other peoples, which was equivalent to the role of the Huns on the back of the Parthian Empire. They were also beaten to a half body, although many areas behind were Serbs. Mostly, but there is no longer a big threat.

The environment at the Cape looks too bad. The land is all soft and soft. A large amount of smoke and dust can be blown up by a little bit of wind. No matter how it looks, it is not suitable for farming.

In addition to the soft ground, most plants look half-dead, and you can't see the green that plants should have, let alone see the patches of green shade.

This kind of scenery is not seen in the mainland of the Han Empire. To see this kind of landscape, one needs to wait for serious soil erosion on the Guanzhong Plateau, but the color of the land will not be earthy red, but an earthy yellow.

People nowadays cannot judge what makes the environment so bad, but it is actually a phenomenon that the groundwater has dried up. It may be that the underground river is broken, or it is simply that it has not been able to retain the water that should be left behind. If this phenomenon continues, the geographical environment will soon become the face of the Gobi.

Liu Ming is quite happy to see new things, and is willing to spend some time and effort to explore and understand.

"It stands to reason that the beach shouldn't look like this." Liu Ming grabbed a handful of withered weeds, put it under his nose and smelled it, only the smell of soil, not the slightest smell of plants: "It's the land. Has it been salted?"

No one can answer Liu Ming's question for the time being. A special scientific research team needs to come and study the soil. If there is no problem with the surface of the soil, find the right place for deep excavation. If you can dig into an underground river, you can get the answer by checking it.

They escorted the prisoners back to the camp, and Liu Ming was told that Shangguan had been given a new mission.

"We will be the second batch of troops to land in the Sassanian territory." Xin Ling is the leader of Liu Ming's team. He looked around the fifty people under his command with enthusiasm on his face: "We will be the first. The firearms that landed on the enemy country from the sea this time must be powerful!"

More than fifty people responded in unison: "No!"

The expeditionary fleet landed on the cape, but did not mainly attack the two Satraps. Before the negotiations with the two Satraps came to fruition, the combat plan for the southern coast of Sassan was drawn up.

In fact, they are here to help the Tianzhu Shogunate the most. Even if the two Satraps did not immediately urge them to negotiate and surrender, their presence on this side would inevitably make the two Satraps afraid to come out and surrender. Battle at Tianzhu Shogunate.

"So, Qian Jiantonghui is the best candidate for the general leader of the Tianzhu Shogunate?" Huan Wen will have a leisure period after the battle plan is confirmed. He has to wait until the war breaks out before he gets busy again: "What a lucky guy. what!"

The Duhu of a Duhu Mansion can already be regarded as the middle and upper class of the Han Empire, but compared with the generals of the field army, it is quite a bit inferior.

Being able to become a general of a field army shogunate is actually a step up to the top of the military. As long as you can win a big victory as the leader of the shogunate, you will have the basis for becoming a permanent general. And become a permanent general? Look at the few people who were named by the emperor in the event of a war, and then look at the titles and treatments they received. As long as there are no examples of rabbits and dogs, three generations of wealth are inevitable.

Yuan Qiao smiled slightly when he saw Huan Wen's jealousy that he didn't even cover up.

The Tianzhu Shogunate will not be the most important and prominent shogunate in the future, but the Tianzhu Shogunate will definitely be the one that has experienced the most wars.

The three continents are not small. There are too many kingdoms on it. In addition to the kingdoms, there are many states, city-states, tribes, and tribes. It is destined to have these things all over, so that they can safely go north and participate in the invasion of Persian Sassan.

In the Han Empire, fame and fortune can only be achieved by war. As a soldier, the most feared thing is that no war can be fought.

In fact, in some respects, the ambition shown by the emperor, the determination to penetrate the entire world island, is the greatest protector for honors and military commanders.

As long as the Han Empire will continue to have wars, the probability of occurrence will decrease wirelessly.

After all, the emperor has such great ambitions, he always needs people who can lead the army to fight, and the knife will not be easily changed if it is used smoothly.

In this way, it all shows that unless it is a guy who has a brain twitch, he will have a good death.

"I'll take a whole thousand ships." Huan Wen didn't intend to stay in the cape, and exhorted: "The negotiations with the two Satraps will take a long history."

Yuan Qiao saluted, thinking in his heart: "Yuanzi is a little bit overwhelmed."

The Asan Continent is the battle zone of the Tianzhu Shogunate. Even if the two satraps surrendered, they should surrender to the Tianzhu Shogunate. If the expeditionary fleet accepts the surrender of the two satraps, it will undoubtedly be a depressing thing for the Tianzhu shogunate to vomit blood, and the confrontation between the two shogunates will become inevitable.

Yuan Qiao feels that Huan Wen’s departure is a good thing, UU reading www. uukanshu.com After he became the main person in charge of the two satraps, he would let the Tianzhu shogunate take the lead in accepting surrender, so as to maximize his reputation, but he would not give up gaining merit in this matter. In fact, the benefits will account for the bulk.

The expeditionary fleet was formed for the expedition to Europa. The biggest contribution would be to appear on the battlefield at the battle with Rome. The hard work to seize the Asan Continent is not only a matter of ignorance, but also a kind of unsatisfactory business.

On the Tianzhu shogunate side, Qian Jiantong, who was approved by the central government, took over as the head of the shogunate. Just after taking office, he received the news that the two satraps were about to surrender to the expeditionary fleet. It can be said that for a while, he felt that his authority was in danger.

The army is far more realistic than anywhere else, and the generals who cannot win the war are waste materials. And waste materials will never be recognized by the soldiers, and without the approval of the soldiers, the army cannot be used like an arm.

"This is the first challenge I have to deal with after taking office!" Qian Jiantong usually has a guilty conscience with Shang Huanwen. Facing the current situation, he can't afford to retreat at all: "Send someone to contact the expedition to the shogunate, and at the same time make a transfer. The cavalry pushes the Chambal River!"
