The sky curtain also continues.

【Furthermore, the Guanzhong region has significant transportation advantages. 】

【Although it is surrounded by mountains, the transportation is very convenient. 】

【As the largest tributary of the Yellow River, the Wei River runs through the entire Guanzhong Plain. 】

【Through the Wei River, ships can directly enter the Yellow River and then reach all parts of the country. 】

[This also means that Guanzhong is not like Shu, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. ]

[Guanzhong is also very convenient for going east to fight for the world! 】

[Standing on the Guanzhong Plain, you are standing on the second floor of China's topography! ]

[The altitude is 200 meters higher than the North China Plain, which is equivalent to having a high-altitude bombing advantage in the era of cold weapons. ]

[King Wu of Zhou set out from Haojing and headed straight for Chaoge along the Weihe-Yellow River waterway.]

[The 700,000-strong Shang army was scattered on the plain.]

[Qin Shi Huang was even more ruthless. After taking Guanzhong, he directly used dimensionality reduction to attack. Wang Jian led 600,000 Qin troops to swoop down. The battle to destroy Chu was like a bulldozer crushing ants! ]

【In order to strengthen the transportation advantages of Guanzhong. 】

【Since the Qin and Han dynasties, the government has attached great importance to the shipping of the Wei River and built many canals and docks. 】

[It enables materials from Guanzhong region to be transported to various places by water. ]

[The Wei River connects to the Yellow River and goes straight to the Central Plains, while the Han River connects to the Yangtze River and goes straight to the south of the Yangtze River. ]

[Emperor Wu of Han fought against the Xiongnu, and it took only three months to transport 500,000 dan of military rations from Guanzhong to Hetao;]

[What Zhuge Liang coveted most during his Northern Expedition was the amphibious highway network in Guanzhong! ]

Outside the sky.

Three Kingdoms.

Zhuge Liang saw himself being mentioned.

There is also some intention.

"This Guanzhong area is truly the foundation of kings and hegemons!"

Zhuge Liang sighed, his voice full of emotion.

"It is surrounded by dangerous fortifications and has fertile fields for thousands of miles. It can be used for attack or defense. It is truly a strategic location bestowed by God."

As he spoke, a hint of envy couldn't help but flash in his eyes.

"If we, the Han people, can occupy this place, why should we worry about not accomplishing our great cause?"

Zhuge Liang's mind emerged the current situation of Shu Han in a remote corner, with scarce resources and a small population. The key point is that it is extremely difficult to leave Sichuan.

This is in stark contrast to the abundance and convenient transportation of Guanzhong.

"Although our Han people have the passion of their soldiers, we are trapped in this cramped place. It is really difficult."

At this time, he glanced at the plan submitted by Wei Yan on the table.

Zhuge Liang frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

His fingers also rubbed the location of Chang'an City on the sheepskin map repeatedly.

"The Ziwu Valley plan is indeed a shortcut. If it succeeds, we can quickly open up the situation and occupy Guanzhong."

"At that time, Emperor Gaozu left Hanzhong and secretly crossed Chencang to seize the Three Qins"

"It is truly a brilliant strategy for the ages!"

"But the road in Ziwu Valley is rugged and easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you are not careful, you will be in a desperate situation."

"Our military strength is limited, and we cannot afford such a risk."

"This plan is too risky. If it fails, not only will the lives of 5,000 elite soldiers be in danger, but it will also seriously undermine the morale of our army."

"But without a surprise victory, it would be difficult to defeat Cao Wei."

"It's a huge matter and we can't make a hasty decision."

Zhuge Liang gathered his thoughts and continued to watch the sky.

[In addition, there are many important land transportation routes in Guanzhong area, which connect all parts of the country and are the main transportation arteries in ancient times. ]

[The famous "Silk Road" started from Chang'an. From Chang'an, through the land transportation routes in Guanzhong area, it can lead to Central Asia, West Asia and even Europe. ]

【This convenient transportation condition made Guanzhong region the economic and cultural center of ancient China. 】

[Let’s take the Qin Dynasty as an example. ]

【After the Qin Dynasty unified the six kingdoms, it built a large number of highways to strengthen its rule over the country. 】

[These highways were centered in Xianyang and extended in all directions, many of which passed through the Guanzhong area.]

[The construction of the Chidao greatly improved the transportation efficiency of the Qin Dynasty, facilitating the rapid mobilization of troops and the timely transportation of materials. ]

[Under the rule of the Qin Dynasty, the transportation advantages of the Guanzhong region were fully utilized and became the national transportation hub. ]

【Finally, the Guanzhong region has an important geographical location. 】

【Guanzhong is an important channel connecting the Central Plains with the Northwest and Southwest regions. 】【In ancient times, the Central Plains was the political, economic and cultural center of China. 】

【The northwest and southwest regions have rich resources and vast territories. 】

【The Southwest can become a strategic rear area. 】

[The northwest was where powerful dynasties came into play.]

【As a hub connecting these three regions, Guanzhong has an important strategic position. 】

[Whether it is offense or defense, it has a great advantage. 】

【Especially during the period of fighting for the world. 】

[Control the Guanzhong region, and take Hanzhong to get through to the Sichuan Basin. 】

[You will have a super stable logistics base. ]

[During the Chu-Han War, Xiao He's fleet of ships transporting grain from Bashu to Guanzhong never stopped, and he used the grain to pile up Xiang Yu to death.]

【It can be seen that the geographical advantages of the ancient Guanzhong regime are multifaceted. 】

[Its terrain is difficult to attack and easy to defend; its natural resources are rich, providing sufficient material support for national development. ]

【Convenient transportation, important geographical location, and important strategic position. 】

【These advantages made Guanzhong the political, economic and cultural center of ancient China and gave birth to many powerful regimes. 】

【The Qin, Han, Tang and other regimes rose in the Guanzhong region. 】

【Finally unified China and created a glorious history. 】

【Thank you for watching, remember to like it, see you next time! 】

The sky screen video ends here.

Netizens’ comments also appeared one after another.

《Old Qin people report in! 》

"This terrain is really amazing."

"Guanzhong has both offensive and defensive capabilities, and its geographical advantages should not be too strong."

"Golden horn, silver edge, grass belly, Guanzhong belongs to the golden horn."

"Eight Hundred Miles of Qinchuan, the Foundation of the Emperor!"

"The Zhengguo Canal has transformed saline-alkali land into fertile soil."

"With sufficient food and supplies, we can not only defend firmly, but also attack from all sides. The terrain is invincible!"

"The disadvantage is that the core area, the Guanzhong Plain, is too small. If the Guanzhong Plain is destroyed, the regime will immediately decline."

"During the Qin and Han dynasties, northern Shaanxi was a forest of giant trees and rich in resources."

"There were still elephants in Guanzhong during the Shang and Zhou dynasties!"

"The canal transportation was blocked, the environment deteriorated, and after the An Lushan Rebellion, the main external hostile forces shifted to the northeast, so it declined later."

tomorrow.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at the screen.

I carefully read through the advantages of the level and the comments from netizens, and kept pondering in my mind.

"We had thought about moving the capital to Xi'an before, but later shelved it."

"After reading this, I think I can think about this matter carefully again!"

Liu Bowen was standing by, stroking his beard and speaking slowly:

"Your Majesty, the Guanzhong area is surrounded by mountains on all sides and has many passes. It is indeed easy to defend but difficult to attack."

"If we move the capital to Xi'an, the foundation of our Ming Dynasty will be more solid."

"But moving the capital is a big deal and requires long-term consideration."

Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded.

"We had planned to send Biaoer to inspect Xi'an and plan the city's construction, water conservancy and transportation."

"It is important for Biaoer to rest and relax now. We cannot send him there."

"In case Biaoer really dies from overwork like Tianmu mentioned, we can't bear that."

"I need to find another capable official to conduct the investigation on my behalf."

"Besides, let's not talk about whether to move the capital or not."

"First, we need to restore the ecology of Guanzhong."

"Well, let's send some people to plant trees first."

"Planting trees to restore the ecology of Guanzhong will always be beneficial, whether the capital is relocated or not."

"Biao'er once said that moving the capital is a long-term plan. I can wait!" (End of this chapter)
