Seeing that many people said that Wang Mang and Liu Xiu were very much like crossers, they suddenly opened their minds and thought that there was a huge electromagnetic storm at the turn of the two Han Dynasties, causing a group of modern people to cross collectively?
Because Liu Xiu's relatives, Ma Yuan, are also very much like a crosser.
First of all, Ma Yuan was from a family of officials and eunuchs, and his three elder brothers Ma Quan, Ma Yu, and Ma Yuan, all achieved high-ranking officials of two thousand stones in Wang Mang's new dynasty; such a family background, coupled with Ma Yuan's talent, believed that he was mixed with a high-ranking official under Wang Mang, but Ma Yuan, with his knowledge of crossing, determined that Wang Mang would undoubtedly lose, and the world would fall into great chaos; so he resolutely let go of the criminals under his jurisdiction, abandoned the officials, and ran to the border to start a livestock business, and thus successfully escaped the chaos in the Central Plains.
In a chaotic world, what business is best to do? Of course it's arms! And what is the safest and most profitable thing in the arms business? Horses, of course! Whether it was the turn of the Qin and Han Dynasties or the turn of the two Han Dynasties, the horses used by the cavalry were all rare things that the warlords of the chaotic world dreamed of, so the horse aid business became bigger and bigger, and more and more people came to join the "Ma's Border Animal Husbandry Group Co., Ltd.", and finally there were hundreds of guests, becoming the largest "livestock private enterprise" in China at that time. Ma Yuan led everyone to nomadic horses in the Longxi and Tianshui areas, opened up wasteland and cultivated land, and after a few years, he actually accumulated a huge fortune, with thousands of cattle, horses, sheep, and tens of thousands of grains, which can be described as a county in Wang Mang's chaotic world.
And it was precisely because Ma Yuan held such a large army and horse resources, Liangzhou Dou Rong, Kui Huan, Bashu Gongsun Shu, Zhongyuan Liu Xiu and other forces greatly appreciated Ma Yuan, and tried their best to win his help; Gongsun Shu even did not hesitate to invite him to the high position of Marquis and Great General, but Ma Yuan finally chose Liu Xiu, who did not give him any official position, and became an idle guest in Shanglin Garden.
Does this mean that Ma Yuan has already decided that Liu Xiu will be able to unify the world and become a generation of Ming Emperors?

Later, when Liu Xiu personally conquered Kui Huan, because he was not familiar with the terrain of Longdi, he asked Ma Yuan to help, and Ma Yuandang even invented a miracle that was ahead of the times - the three-dimensional sand table deduction operation (it is said to be more than 1800 years earlier than the European army), to be precise, it was the "rice plate", that is, the rice was gathered as a valley, and the situation was drawn, in order to visually display the longdi road path and dangers, thus clarifying the best march route of the Han army.
As a result, Ma Yuan's imaginative crossing initiative allowed the Han army to easily cross several passes, and it was as if it were fighting in front of its own house, and soon the Kui army was easily destroyed.
In addition, because Ma Yuan's knowledge was far greater than that of the people of the time, he simply opened a hundred pulpits in the Eastern Han Palace later, he talked about the Gewu Canon today, tomorrow he talked about the three auxiliary elders, the day after tomorrow he talked about the young man in Luli, and the day after tomorrow he talked about the heroes of the rivers and lakes, anyway, the streets and alleys of folk fun, historical geography, and cultural customs, Ma Yuan's all-encompassing sky was crazy, so that the princes, kings, palace women, and eunuchs in the palace were all addicted to it, and they were tireless and tireless.
After that, Ma Yuan was sent to Southeast Asia on an expedition to Pingding Jiaotong, so Ma Yuan gave full play to the rich geographical knowledge of his crossers, opened roads all the way to the mountains, encountered water and canals, and finally reached Lingnan, and then entered the sea from the Qianti Port in Hepu County with large and small building boats, along the Qinzhou Bay, Fangcheng Coast and Beibu Bay, close to the land to transport supplies, so that the sea and land went hand in hand, straight to Hanoi. This great sea and land journey across the ages, non-crossers Ma Yuan can not do it.
According to the Jin Dynasty's "Divine Anomaly Classic", the king of Siam in the south (around present-day Thailand) at that time was amazed by the outstanding deeds of the Fubo general Ma Yuan, and sent emissaries to present two military sacred cows to the Han army. The two cows were as black as paint and had large bodies, but they did not have to feed forage, because they would go out on their own to find iron and stone for food, and the keeper only needed to prepare a pot of charcoal in the cowshed for them to quench their thirst. It is also said that this kind of cow dung is the best iron block in the world, which is called "iron pickaxe".
Two thousand years ago, the Indochina Peninsula was still in the Bronze Age, where did the iron, which is clearly a steam locomotive secretly invented by the crosser Ma Yuan, used to transport supplies on the expedition, and also wanted to pull the Siamese country as a cover, haha!
According to the Book of later Han, Ma Yuan once advised Liang Song and Dou Gu, the two sons-in-law of the Guangwu Emperor, to say: "Mortals are noble, and when they are lowly, such as Qing and others, they should not be degraded, and they are high and self-sustaining, and they are reluctant to think and despise." Unfortunately, these two magnates did not listen, but they resented him, and later they also slandered Ma Yuan's reputation after his death, and the result was as Ma Yuan predicted, "Songhou caused disaster with Guiman, and it was inevitable that he would not avoid it." ”
In addition, Ma Yuan was also a grandmaster-level Soma master and economist; he wrote many papers detailing the calendar token system, which made great contributions to the restoration of the financial system of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Did Ma Yuan, who know everything about astronomy, geography, economy, animal husbandry, military, and science and technology, discover each other's secrets in the process of getting along with Liu Xiu, who is also a crosser (perhaps accidentally singing a song of chrysanthemums), and was snubbed after his death?
