Chapter 313 Chaohu Lake

The next morning, Wang Qiang was woken up by Su Su: "I'm in Wuhu."

Wang Qiang was confused about this place name: "What about?"

Su Su pointed to a fork in a river on the north bank of the river: "Ruxukou!"

Wang Qiang was shocked all over: "Zhang Liao's power shocked Xiaoyaojin!"

It was Zhou Tai who changed shifts at this time, and he said angrily: "Can you not always mention this person?"

Su Su smiled and said, "Okay, then I won't mention it. The Ruxu River connecting Chaohu at the mouth of Ruxu is now changed to Yuxi River. It is pronounced almost the same, and I have read it a lot, but unfortunately I can't get fame. In Chaohu is Hefei. This is not only the main attack base for Cao Cao to attack the Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms, but also the base for the Ming Dynasty's navy, and the Huai Army base of Li Hongzhang, a Hefei native who was "Prime Minister Hefei Tianxiaxi" during the Qing Dynasty. The location is very important."

Wang Qiang nodded repeatedly when he heard this.

Su Su smiled and said, "Oh what? This is the predecessor base for the Zheng He fleet. By the way, Brother Qiang, who prehistoric, has always wanted to mess with Jie Jie of Xia, and Jie of Xia's hometown is Chaohu."

At this moment, Yang Guang ran out of the painting again: "Make a dragon boat? Find me! What dragon boat can Xia Jie make in such an ancient era?"

What I want is ancient! Wang Qiang said in surprise: "Your Majesty Yang can build ships?"

Su Su smiled and said, "If the carpenter emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Ming Dynasty said that he could build a ship, I would believe it. I would not believe it if His Majesty Yang said he could build a ship."

Yang Guang coughed dryly: "I haven't raised pigs but have eaten pork! At least it can point out the shortcomings and deficiencies of taste."

Speaking of this, Yang Guang immediately opened up the embarrassing topic: "Wang Qiang, I want to test you, why is the location of Chaohu so important?"

Wang Qiang browed and smiled proudly: "After so many days of influence, I am no longer Wu Xia Ameng, of course it is convenient for logistics and grain transportation!"

Yang Guang laughed: "I answered correctly, but there was no award."

Speaking of this, Yang Guang sighed: "In ancient times, logistics was crucial. If you were to transport grain to a hundred thousand troops, you had to have tens of thousands of civilians. These tens of thousands of civilians also had to eat, and they walked slowly. You only walked dozens of miles a day. After a month, you could walk around and fight for hundreds of miles, and you would have to eat it. How could you fight?"

Wang Qiang immediately responded: "So you have to occupy the waterway and transport grain by boat. And you can't take a few people to drive the boat. You can transport more and go faster."

Yang Guang laughed and said, "That's right, although the Yangtze River is long, there are very few places that can be used. Cao Cao only fought against the Eastern Wu two main battlefields, Jingzhou and Hefei. The battle of Feishui in the Former Qin Dynasty, Fu Jian wanted to destroy the Eastern Jin Dynasty was also in Hefei. The Mongolian destroyed the Song Dynasty and went down from Jingzhou to Shunjiang. During the Qing Dynasty, Zeng Guofan also captured the Anqing Shunjiang and took down the river. As long as he controlled the water route, he controlled the logistics line and the troops transport line. In ancient times, the war relied on water routes."

Yang Guang sighed again: "It's a pity that I have no waterway to attack Goguryeo, and the logistics pressure is too great. Those bastards deliberately dragged their legs on transporting grain. How could they be defeated?"

Wang Qiang sighed: "That's right."

Su Su smiled and said, "So, since ancient times, China's unification has been the north unified the south, and the south has a wide water network. This battle is too easy to fight. The south cannot defeat the north. The Song Dynasty alone could not recover the Central Plains, and it was all logistical. Not only in ancient times, but now the US military has 20,000 troops in Afghanistan and no waterways. Pakistan has also cut off land transportation for them, so they have air transported it. The air transport has caused the US treasury tossing and causing trouble for the past ten years."

Wang Qiang browed: "Didn't Susu say that the US military in Afghanistan is growing opium? This income is huge! Can it offset the deficit of the national treasury?"

Yang Guang sneered: "The income of opium belongs to the CIA, what does it have to do with the US treasury? Like the US Marine Corps, the CIA consumes military pay from the US treasury, but the income is full of personal pockets and is not even under the command of the US government. It is a blessing for me to have such a guy."

Su Su smiled and said, "Brother Qiang, who is the world's largest drug dealer?"

Wang Qiang was shocked: "CIA?"
