Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

However, in fact, Zhu Yuanzhang was not the only one who fell from the sky.On Liu Bei's side, a big pie fell from the sky as well.

It's just that Liu Bei's pie is still halfway, still in the process of falling, and hasn't really hit the head yet.

And the root of everything about these two pies has to start with Liu Che.

The initial territory in Liu Che's hands included Yizhou, Nanzhong and most of Jiaozhou.

If Liu Che did not have Yizhou, he could actually retreat to Jiaozhou.

After all, there is always a Nanzhong between Yizhou and Jiaozhou.As Nanzhong is the territory of the Nanman, the biggest threat to the Han people here has never been the barbarians, but its natural environment.

It took Liu Che several years to initially conquer this place. Could it be that the strength of the Nanman was really strong enough to fight against Liu Che for a few years?That's not the case. What really blocked Liu Che for so long was the natural environment here.

Due to water and soil reasons, Han soldiers will suffer from various diseases even if they stay in this territory for a long time, and their combat effectiveness will be seriously reduced even if they do not fight.

Not to mention the poisonous insects and weeds that can be seen everywhere in the virgin forest environment, as well as the large-scale miasma.

Liu Che spent such a long time here in Nanman. In fact, most of the time was for the soldiers to start adapting to the natural environment here, at least not to reduce their combat effectiveness due to the problem of acclimatization, and then conquered Nanman step by step.

Just like most ordinary people will have altitude sickness when they go to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, it takes a certain amount of time to adapt.

Therefore, even if Yizhou is gone, Liu Che's forces can retreat to Jiaozhou.With Nanzhong in the middle, the Jin army's battle will only end after taking down Yizhou, and it is not time to continue chasing.

However, Liu Che had a long-term vision. He clearly saw that although there was indeed an option to retreat to Jiaozhou, in the final analysis, this road was just waiting for death slowly.

The Shu army can spend a few years adapting to the natural environment in Nanzhong, and the Jin army can certainly spend time to do this.

After a few years, when the Jin army also pacified the Nanman, what would Jiaozhou do to resist the huge Jin army at that time?At the peak, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and the dangers of the mountains and rivers in the land of Bashu, Liu Che was a little proud, but not to the extent that he had no self-knowledge!
Furthermore, Zhu Yuanzhang has been peeping at the remaining half of Jiaozhou for a long time.Before the start of this great war sweeping the whole world, Zhu and Liu have been in a state of confrontation.

I'm afraid that once this great war sweeping the world is over, the Jin army may be blocked by Nanzhong and will not be able to get through for the time being, but Zhu Yuanzhang may come over first.

If the two sides continue to fight, it will be of no benefit to both sides, and it will only benefit the Jin army in the end.Today, the Jin army already owns half of the country. If the entire southern land is pacified in one fell swoop, even if Hebei and the Central Plains add up, they will not be able to shake the sky!

In this way, Liu's surname is really about to change to another surname!
After much deliberation, Liu Che finally gave up on this path!
Even, Liu Che was quite courageous. For the sake of the Han family, he even sacrificed himself, voluntarily gave up this retreat, and gave his strength as much as possible to the remaining Han family clan to replace him. Fight for the last hope of the Han Dynasty.

It was precisely because of this that Liu Che finally sent Huo Guang to Zhu Yuanzhang as an envoy to conclude a deal with Zhu Yuanzhang on his behalf.

The reason why Huo Guang appeared in Jingbei at that time was to make preparations in advance. Once Liu Che really didn't survive this time, he didn't wait for a week, but let the Jin army take the land of Bashu, and officially started this battle with Zhu Yuanzhang. field transaction.

From this point of view alone, as Liu Che's first minister, Huo Guang had great trust in him, and Liu Che entrusted all his affairs to Huo Guang to handle.After all, when Huo Guang replaced Liu Che and Zhu Yuanzhang in this transaction, there was a high probability that Liu Che was no longer alive at that time!

It is precisely because of the existence of this transaction that Liu Che achieved his final goal and saved the last power for the Han Dynasty. At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bei each got a huge pie.

As for the content of this transaction, it is naturally related to the half of Jiaozhou in Liu Che's hands.

It was precisely because Liu Che knew that even if he retreated to Jiaozhou, it would be nothing more than a slow death, so he took him as the last bargaining chip in his hand and started this deal with Zhu Yuanzhang.

The specific content of the transaction is nothing more than Zhu Yuanzhang letting go of the road, and even the people who helped him took the sea route to Liu Bei's territory in batches.If you go from Jiaozhou to Qingzhou by land, you will almost cross the north and south of the Han Dynasty. There are too many variables in the middle, and there are quite a lot of people like Liu Che, so it is not easy to hide their whereabouts halfway.

If it's just a few people traveling easily, spending more time may not be impossible to walk over.But the manpower prepared by Liu Che for Liu Bei, plus the family members of these people, just let them walk such a long distance by themselves, even if Liu Che had prepared in advance, this road is basically impossible to walk.

It is not easy to travel by land, so the only option is the sea route!
However, Liu Che's people did not have any experience in sea voyages, and they were not enough to experience such a long sea voyage alone, so they could only choose to seek Zhu Yuanzhang's help.

Even, in order to prevent Zhu Yuanzhang from playing tricks on the way, in Liu Che's plan, not only did his group of people arrive in batches, but they would not actually hand over Jiaozhou to Zhu Yuanzhang until the last moment.If there is an accident in the middle, the last manpower in Liu Che's forces will use Jiaozhou and Zhu Yuanzhang to fight to the end.

Whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang or Liu Che, they can clearly see the next goal of the Jin army, which is probably the entire southern land, in other words, it is Zhu Yuanzhang's territory.

If the rest of Liu Che's forces use Jiaozhou to fight Zhu Yuanzhang to the end, Zhu Yuanzhang will still be able to unify the entire Jiaozhou in the end, but it will take a lot of effort.And as the next target of the Jin army, he must be able to weigh clearly which is more important!

Zhu Yuanzhang, as the next target of the Jin army, doesn't have so much time to waste for him!
