The Three Kingdoms

In the South China Sea, the biggest harvest of the Wu Kingdom is Australia, which is the Australian mainland in later generations.

After taking Australia, the navy began to march westward under the instruction of Sun Quan.

The first problem of the westward advance is the Strait of Malacca in later generations. This is a dangerous area, even in the era of battleships in later generations.

Compared with today's fledgling navy, in order to explore the route and cross this strait, the navy has paid at least two large ships, more than [-] fighting ships, and the lives of more than [-] soldiers.

Therefore, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai named this place Devil's Strait.

After passing through the Devil's Strait, it is the Indian Ocean of later generations.

Entering the Indian Ocean, the first stop is the Bay of Bengal.

These days, the size of the navy is not comparable to that of the State of Wu. The Navy of the State of Wu entering the Bay of Bengal is enough to level the sea area and stand firm.

The Bay of Bengal was a large strait that belonged to India and the Golden Triangle in later generations, but now, the strait is facing the Jiaozhou of Wu State and the Guishuang Empire on the left and right.

It is most suitable for Wu Guo's navy to land here.

Ashoka Island.

This island is located at the western exit of the Bay of Bengal, at the junction of the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal, facing the Indian Peninsula in the north.

In later generations, this place is called Sri Lanka.

Today, it is called the Kingdom of Ashoka.

In the 5th century BC, the Sinhalese migrated from the Indian Peninsula to this island. In 247 BC, King Ashoka of the Mauryan Dynasty sent his son to the island.Since then, it has been established as the Ashoka Kingdom.

Ashoka Kingdom is a small kingdom, not as good as a city in the Central Plains. The people and soldiers add up to only tens of thousands, and they were landed by Zhou Tai's troops.has been conquered.

Since then, it has become the bridgehead island for the Wu army to conquer the Guishuang Empire.

Zhou Tai and Gan Ning stationed [-] troops here.

On this day, the sea breeze was fierce, and on the island, there was a newly built deep-water military port terminal.A black eagle with a blue background, under the flag of the flying eagle with the wings of the roc, the two main generals Zhou Tai and Gan Ning, leading the generals above the division level, stood at the forefront, waiting for the young people who came off the ship from the Iron Armored Building .

"salute!"

Zhou Tai shouted loudly, and all the soldiers quickly raised their hands in a respectful military salute.

The young man who stepped down from the boat is now one of the best war gods in the Wu Kingdom, and the youngest and most trusted giant in the military aircraft department, Hussar General Zhao Yun.Zhao Zilong.

"General Zhao, your journey is going well!"

After saluting, Zhou Tai stepped forward, looked at the pale Zhao Yun, and asked with a smile.

"It's hard to say. I'm used to fighting on land, but I'm floating in the sea. A certain family's heart is always not at ease. If it weren't for my better health, I'm afraid this trip would have killed me!"

Zhao Yun's face was pale.There was a slightly bitter smile on Fengshen's handsome face.

He is a cavalryman, the most outstanding cavalryman in the world. On horseback, he dares to compete with heaven and earth.But on the boat, he felt that he was useless. Except for returning to Jiangdong from the East China Sea and taking the boat back then, few others would be on such a long boat.

The feeling of taking a boat is very weird, as if the whole person is drifting with the current in this vast sea, and he has no choice but to be himself.Floating in the sea like this, without a sense of security at all, it's amazing that he didn't faint.

"Hahaha!"

Gan Ning laughed a few times, and said: "General Zilong is a cavalry soldier, the most outstanding cavalry soldier in the world. It is not surprising that I feel this way on the sea. I was a general from the navy back then, and I floated like this on the sea. , I feel the same way!"

The Yangtze River is different from the sea. When Gan Ning went to sea for the first time, he felt the same way.

"General, do you need a break?"

Zhou Tai asked in a low voice.

"No, I, Zhao Yun, are not so precious yet, and I don't have much time to go south. This time I go south, and I must return to Jinling City on January [-] at the beginning of next year!"

Zhao Yun went south to command the battle this time not because of the untrustworthy War Eagle Camp of the Fifth Military Region of Wu State, but because the battle was more urgent.

"January [-]st? General, why are you in such a hurry?"

Zhou Tai led Zhao Yun along a newly built official road on the island, and walked all the way into a relatively rich and magnificent palace. This is King Ashoka's Palace, which is considered the best building on the road.

This is the command camp of the War Eagle Camp.

"The king is about to be crowned emperor!"

Zhao Yun sat down, took a sip of the bed warmer, calmed down, and said, he did not hide this from Zhou Tai, he said flatly: "The day of the coronation will be January [-] next year!"

"Crowned as emperor?"

Zhou Tai and Gan Ning were a little excited when they heard the words, and hurriedly retreated all the generals in the hall, Zhou Taicai asked: "General Zilong, the Central Plains has not yet been unified, is your king's move too impatient?"

"It's not the king who is anxious, it's Cao Cao who is anxious. You have been in the outer sea for too long, and the news about the Central Plains may be a little behind. The Wei Dynasty has already enshrined Zen, and Cao Cao has already been crowned. If the king is not crowned, isn't it tantamount to being inferior to him! "

Zhao Yun calmly explained.

"What a Cao Mengde, you are too impatient!" Gan Ning sneered when he heard this.

"He overestimated himself!"

Zhou Tai was a little angry: "My great Wu is the number one vassal in the world today. I conquered the north and conquered the hinterland of the Central Plains. In the Central Plains, we must raise troops to attack them!"

"It doesn't matter whether he is impatient or overestimated. Now he has forced the king to proclaim himself emperor in advance. For this reason, the king gritted his teeth and started the battle of Qingzhou. Now the entire flame army in the East China Sea has been involved in the battle of Qingzhou !"

Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: "The reason why I chose to go south at this time is to let you start the war in advance. It is to crown the king and give him more glory."

His eyes were fiery, hot and bright, and he said decisively: "I want the head of King Guishuang."

"King Guishuang's head? It's a bit difficult!"

Zhou Tai and Gan Ning heard the words.Glancing at each other, their expressions became serious one after another. The two of them reached a large sand table in the middle, and each of them spread out a few maps.

"General Zilong, we already know a lot about the Guishuang Empire!"

"tell me the story!"

There was a lot of interest in Zhao Yun's expression: "When I went ashore just now, I saw some dark people on the island. These are from Guishuang people!"

"Well, the king calls these people black races, and there are many such people in the Guishuang Empire!"

"Know yourself and know the enemy, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles, you know the history of Guishuang!" Zhao Yun continued to ask.

Gan Ning continued: "The Guishuang Empire was established by one of the five major tribes of the Da Yuezhi, the leader of the Guishuang tribe, Qiu Jue, until now. About 200 years ago, it was established with the Great Han Dynasty established by Emperor Guangwu. almost!"

"Today's Emperor Guishuang is Wei Sutipo who has been on the throne for ten years. According to what we know so far, he is a relatively wise emperor. He has 15 elite soldiers and many city guards under his command. , add up, there are at least 20 soldiers and horses!"

Zhou Tai added: "Guishhuang's soldiers and horses are headed by cavalry, and their cavalry is very powerful. It is said that many of the horses are good horses from Dawan. They also have one or two more important arms, one is the war elephant now. The most powerful war elephant soldiers in the camp, and the lion cavalry.
