? The scene of the rise and fall of rabbits on the Qingxu battlefield was turned by the battle between the Jin army and the sea. In the end, several coalition forces were completely defeated, and the hero Yuan Shao and Linji were brought down, and everything disappeared.

Many people can predict that Zhao Xing would inevitably rescue Kong Rong and Tao Qian, but few people speculate that the Jin Congress used such fierce and bold means to participate in the Battle of Qingxu.

The ability to achieve sudden strikes and large-scale military delivery strategically is something that strategists can do. The reason why the "strategist" Zhao Taifu was able to hide in the Wohu City and leisurely command the battle between the east and west lines without making mistakes is that he was inspired by countless classic battle examples in later generations.

Tens of thousands of Jin troops landed on the East China Sea from Yuzhou Mountain Island, and then divided into two groups to rescue Xia Pi and capture Yan Liang. No matter how you look at it, they all have the smell of "Incheon Landing"; tens of thousands of Jin troops landed on Qingzhou from the coast of Le'an, bypassing two outposts arranged by Yuan Shao on the land and attacked Linji. No matter how you look at it, they all have some shadows of "Normandy Landing". These two classic battles came from later generations, and only time traveler Zhao Xing would know it.

Experience creates wealth, and knowledge is power. Under the guidance of some of Zhao Xing's seemingly imaginative ideas, everything in this time and space is changing day by day.

If Zhao Xing had not insisted on establishing the navy, then if it were Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, or others, once they occupied the vast area north of the Yellow River, the first thing they thought of would be how to recruit soldiers, gather large-scale troops, and wait for a suitable opportunity to cross the Yellow River and fight for the Central Plains. They would never have been in a state of ignorance and crazy to do anything to burn money.

To put it bluntly, until the end of the 20th century, not many people really attached importance to managing the ocean. Even many crises of national destruction came from the sea. Therefore, except for Zhao Xing, no one in this time and space truly realized the importance of controlling the ocean to the Han people. Cao Cao could not do it, Liu Bei could not do it, and Zhuge Liang could not do it...

What is really amazing is the carrying capacity of the Jin Navy. A total of 80,000 soldiers, plus tens of thousands of war horses, is a very huge number in any case. Although it only crossed the Bohai Bay from Quanzhou to the offshore of Donglai, it was only a crossing of the Bohai Bay in this era, but in this era there were no steam engines and steel ships, and all the transport of troops could only rely on the currents, wind and the "Popeye" to rotate huge winches to provide power. How many troop transport ships do they have to be dispatched at one time?

If war horses are not included, then according to the fact that a ship transports 500 soldiers, a total of 160 transport ships are needed; if war horses of the Flying Tiger Army and the Dragon Cavalry Army are included, the number of transport ships will surge to about 500. Although Zhao Xing's family is big and wealthy, it is difficult to gather such a large number of transport ships for a while. So how did he solve this problem?

It's very simple. Calculate the volume in advance and let the fleet run two more trips. Because the Jin Navy built several large port strongholds along the coast, the troops from different landing sites can be transported into the military port in batches, and then wait for subsequent troops to arrive there until the assembly is completed.

This is also the reason why the battlefield in Xuzhou is more than twice that of Quanzhou Le'an, Qingzhou, and Taishici's troops launched an attack on Yuan Shao after Zhao Yun led his army to Xia Pi, Xuzhou.

Another thing is worthy of people's thinking. Among the nearly 200 large transport ships dispatched by the Jin State Navy, 60% of them were actually civilian ships. These transport ships were jointly invested by Mijia, Chenjia in Donghai, and many large merchants in Youzhou, and were specially customized from Quanzhou Navy Shipyard. Because the shipyard undertakes the civilian ship project, it can create some profits and income. The civilian transport ships they manufactured, in accordance with Taishici's instructions, considered the possibility of converting them to military from the very beginning.

When it was necessary during the war, Taishici ordered the collection of these transport ships from the local area to participate in the war and gave merchants certain economic compensation. This practice greatly reduced the cost of construction and ownership compared to the manufacture of a large number of transport ships that were idle at the docks during the war. Compared with the use of a large number of transport ships in normal times, it greatly reduced the cost of construction and preservation, and it was a pioneer in both military and civilian use.

Relying on its strong maritime transportation capabilities, the Jin army achieved its strategic goal of landing in Qingxu without any effort. It was not until this time that the court and related forces that gathered heavy troops on the front line of Jizhou, intending to prevent the Jin team from going south to cross the river and discovered that Zhao Xing had no intention of forcibly crossing the river from the beginning. At that time, the Jin State mobilized four regular troops, a total of 120,000 troops on the battlefield of Jizhou, was just to divert everyone's attention, and even intended to provide everyone with some seemingly possible opportunities, such as attacking Qingzhou and Xuzhou.

Once the Jin army gained a firm foothold in Qingzhou and Xuzhou, the heart of the Central Plains would be completely exposed to the horses of the Jin cavalry. Even Sun Jian, who was far south of the Yangtze River, suddenly felt the pressure coming to his face.

However, judging from the current battlefield situation, it is really a difficult task to drive the landed Dragon Cavalry and Flying Tiger Army into the East China Sea to feed fish, unless Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Liu Yan and the court can form a complete whole, and even Sun Jian, Liu Biao and Sima families must be added.

This is like in a square nine grid, Zhao Xing has steadily occupied the top row of three grids with the labels 1, 2, and 3 (Liangzhou, Bingzhou, Jizhou and Youzhou), and now he has begun to develop the grid with the index number 6 (Qingxu two provinces); the position occupied by Sun Jian can be called the grid No. 9, Liu Biao is naturally the grid No. 8, while the Sima family is the grid No. 7; the Han Dynasty court, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Liu Yan and other forces are currently distributed among the grids 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and the No. 6 grid also contains the 80,000 troops of Jin State.

Once Zhao Xing completely occupied the No. 6 grid, the adjacent No. 5, 8 and 9 grids will face direct threats. Therefore, from the perspective of strategic layout, the land of Qingxu must not fall into Zhao Xing's hands. Otherwise, the remaining forces will only be left with the fate of being eroded by Zhao Xing.

Since they could not drive away the army of Jin, they had to confront each other in Qingxu. Although the problem could not be completely solved, it was better than facing Zhao Xing's threat directly. So the panicked forces such as Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Liu Yan began to mobilize and assemble large troops near Qingxu. Even Sun Jian and Liu Biao, south of the Yangtze River, began to worry and secretly supported the forces directly facing Jin, hoping that these forces could stop Zhao Xing's pace of going south.

Therefore, Qing Xu from the Four Wars Land became the first meat grinder since Zhao Xing traveled through time. In the next period of time, he ruthlessly devoured the lives of soldiers from all sides...
