Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 32 Returning to Book Friends Questions

In the previous article, a brother pointed out that the 160-pound bow was too outrageous. I counted the bows according to the Qing Dynasty. Kangxi claimed that he could open a 150-pound bow when he was young. There are 131-pound hunting bows that have been handed down. Take a 130 lb hard bow.I don't know much about bows and arrows. I only know about bows and arrows in the literature.Thank you for your corrections!
Regarding the first Northern Expedition, I have read the questions raised by many book friends. The first time to capture Longyou as a grand strategy will not change. The key to capturing Longyou lies in breaking Long.

Why the focus is on breaking the dragon, not much to say in the subsequent chapters.

It is said in the history books that You Chu, the prefect of Longxi County, shouted to the Shu army: "If you can block Longxi, so that the reinforcements from the east (reinforcements from the Cao Wei court) cannot reach here, within a month, my officials in Longxi County will not need you to attack. They will all surrender, and if you can’t do it, you will only increase the burden by mobilizing people like this.”

How to break it is a very critical issue. Since ancient times, there have been three roads from Longxi to Guanzhong: ①Chencang Weishui Road, ②Longshan Road, and ③going north along the Jing River, passing Xiaoguan and going south in a large circle.

Therefore, the key point is to block the Chencang Weishui Road and Longshan Road; Jieting is on Longshan Road, which is also the only way to go south.

The focus of Chencang Weishui Road lies in Shanggu, and the Longshan Road lies in Jieting.In this way, everyone does not know if they understand?
The focus of the plot of the first Northern Expedition in the follow-up lies in these two descriptions. In history, Zhuge Liang only took down Jieting, but not Shangyu. As a result, Shangyu still kept in touch with Guanzhong to obtain supplies from Guanzhong.

Guo Huai is a person who is ignored by everyone. Guo Huai is very keenly aware of the terrain in Longxi, which is why he immediately abandoned Tianshui and went to Shanggui.

These are thoughts about Longxi. You can take a look. There are still some problems in the first Northern Expedition. I will slowly write these problems later. You don’t need to be particularly anxious to explain your views on the Northern Expedition, and whether Wei Yan proposed Ziwu in history Gu Zhiji is also very questionable, and will be mentioned in detail in subsequent chapters.

Generally speaking, Jieting was only the trigger for the failure of the first Northern Expedition. There are many other factors that led to the failure of the first Northern Expedition. I will talk about it later. This is why I saved Huang Quan. If I simply think that the Northern Expedition failed Just guard the street pavilion, why don’t I start writing directly from the street pavilion, many authors start writing from the street pavilion, because I really thought about the whole situation carefully.

There is also the issue of Longxi. Let me briefly say that it is very convenient to go from Hanzhong to Longxi. With the West Han River, the terrain is flat and convenient for water transportation.

In addition, Longxi was not poor in ancient times. After the development of Qin Mugong, Western Han Dynasty, and Eastern Han Dynasty, Longxi became rich.At the beginning, Liangjiazi of the six counties was located in Longxi, and the northern area of ​​Tianshui produced a lot of wheat; Tianshui is now a famous hometown of medicinal materials; Longxi area was once a famous horse breeding area in Qin and Han Dynasties, with 30 horses.

What if Longxi is poor?Where did the Guanlong nobles come from?
You can check the website for the real situation in ancient Longxi.

I checked a lot of information, whether it is ancient military formations and history, astronomy, geography, the wind direction in the first few chapters, and the hydrology mentioned by Huo Yi, they are all true.You can ask the brothers in Chengdu whether the north or northeast wind is blowing in Chengdu. This paper was researched by Chengdu Real Estate with people from universities.

I welcome everyone to correct my question, if there is a mistake, please correct me!I hope to bring you a historical novel that fits the history.

If everyone is not satisfied with the outline of my book, Zhou can only apologize!
Afterwards, I will not answer the relevant content about the first Northern Expedition, unless it points out that my information is wrong!
The expert is a teacher, and everyone is welcome to correct my mistakes in data and historical materials!
