Lu Jia felt that there might be something wrong with his ears.

I asked carefully three times, and got three identical answers in succession.

That's right, I heard it right.

Wusun and Qiuzi combined, put about 2,000 troops in front.

"They look down on people too much, don't they?" Lu Jia shook his head in disappointment.

Although the situation is unfavorable to him, the other party does not give him the respect he deserves.

What kind of combat strength do I have with more than 800 people?

Is it that you Wusun don't know?

Or do you have no pressure in your heart?

Put 2,000 people and want to stop Lao Tzu's more than 800 people?

To put it mildly, with their little combat strength, these more than 800 people will be unable to form an army if they make a charge.

"Envoy Lu, it seems that this battle is inevitable, let's prepare early, and let these envoys who go home with us take a look at the true strength of our big man!" Xue Tuo, the captain of the forbidden army, looked at Lu Jia and said.

"Don't panic!" Lu Jia shook his head.

What he is showing now gives him a very strange feeling.

This intuition is often accurate.

It's not metaphysics, but according to the reality, everyone will have a subconscious cognition of a thing in their hearts.

And when you happen to be in this environment at a certain moment, you will subconsciously notice that something is abnormal.

It's like a sales performance of 10,000, which should be a commission of 500, and suddenly gives you a commission of 1,000.

Five hundred is normal, but when you see a thousand, you will instantly feel that something is wrong.

Therefore, the sixth sense often comes from the subconscious, not from some unreliable metaphysics.

"This is not normal!" Lu Jia said with a frown.

"It's not normal, but now we don't have a choice, unless we take a detour, but in that case, the purpose of the land envoy will be discounted." Xue Tuo, of course, noticed that something was abnormal.

At this time, anyone with a little brain has noticed this problem.

Even if Wusun and Qiuzi hadn't fought against the Han army, what they did in the Western Regions wasn't enough for them to make a comparison for themselves?

The two parties are united, and the tacit understanding is inherently problematic.

At this time, the only way to reduce the number of problems caused by tacit understanding is to increase the number of troops.

But Wusun and Qiuzi did not do this, but only sent 2,000 soldiers out.

"Find a way to go around the back and take a look, and send someone to check on both sides!" Lu Jia then commanded.

"The envoy is worried that they have ambushed people around?" Xue Tuo thought about it, and it seemed that there was such a possibility, but he felt that it didn't mean much.

Lu Jia nodded and said: "It's not impossible, we are not only the mission, but also so many envoys from the Western Regions, they carry a large amount of materials, and the speed of travel is fundamentally us, if it is only us, it will not be a problem to break through, but with them, if we are a little careless, it is very likely that we will be separated by the combination of Wusun and Qiuzi, and when the time comes, the end and end will not be echoed, and the formation will be disrupted, and the combat effectiveness will be brought into full play, which is tantamount to a fantasy." ”

The expression on Xue Tuo's face gradually became solemn.

That's right, he just ignored that.

He only needs to take five hundred forbidden troops with him, and he can easily break through the opponent's blockade.

But what about the missions in the back?

What do they do?

What's the use of running in front of you no matter how fast you are?

Is it possible to leave the mission unasked?

Lu Jia made the decision to take them back to Luoyang, and from that moment on, it meant that the mission had no other choice.

Only by successfully bringing these people back to Luoyang can the prestige of the Han Dynasty flutter in the sky above the Western Regions, and everyone will be jealous of the prestige of the Han Dynasty.

If the mission had a problem on the way, it was because the Han army ran away on their own that they had a problem.

Even if the Han is still strong, his reputation will also plummet.

Rather than this, it is better not to take them with you from the beginning, so that the mission can change the route at will, and go as far as it wants, no matter how it goes, it will not affect the prestige of the Han here, at most the effect is a little worse, but there will never be any side effects.

"Huh? Our people? Just as Xue Tuo was about to send someone to investigate, he saw a few war horses hurriedly running in front of him, and the people on the horses were exactly the clothes of the Han army.

"Why are there so many people?" Lu Jia looked at the situation in front of him, subconsciously felt that something was wrong, looked at it again, counted the heads, and sure enough, found something wrong.

There were five people who went out before, which was also a kind of scout reconnaissance commonly used by the Han army.

For this kind of intensive reconnaissance at close range, the general use is to use the army as a unit, and the scouts of this unit are generally only responsible for the area ten miles away and within thirty miles.

Within ten miles is the reconnaissance of the second or third formation, that is, a team is divided into two teams, which basically means a carpet investigation.

And the farther ones, thirty to fifty miles, are in tithes, and fifty miles away, most of them are tun and hundred.

In this way, even if they encounter a situation, they have a certain ability to protect themselves.

It was clear that there were three reconnaissance teams of two or three formations that had just gone out, and three three-person and one two-person formation had already returned.

In other words, there are only two two-person reconnaissance teams left outside and have not returned.

But there are nine people in the team in front of you?

"Land Envoy! There are four people who are not ours! The sharp-eyed Xue Tuo observed carefully for a while, and soon found different places.

And as the distance shortened, Lu Jia also saw that there were indeed four people who were dressed completely differently from the Han people.

But there is also no discord between the two sides.

What are they doing?

On the topic of what they were doing, Lu Jia was quickly confirmed.

Even if he is used to seeing strong winds and waves, it is difficult for Lu Jia to wake up from this reality for a while.

But the facts tell him that this is indeed the case.

Not everyone has the guts, and not everyone can't see the general trend of the future.

Of course, there are some surprises.

"You mean, that's the envoy of Wusun and Guizi in front?" Lu Jia was a little surprised, he didn't expect that those two thousand people were the mission.

This scale is not small at all, although there are a bit of people, but considering that the Han Dynasty mission came out with more than 1,000 people, this situation can be understood.

Maybe people saw the scale of the Han Dynasty's mission, so they also formed such an embassy than the gourd painting scoop?

"Dear Han envoy, this is the case, we received a notice from your subordinates a month ago, so we immediately selected some personnel to join the mission, and our mission of Wusun is led by the eldest prince himself, and more than 200 of them are nobles......"

"Our Qiuzi mission is led by the high priest......"

Those who came to report from both countries reported the size and composition of the mission.

Lu Jia was still very surprised by this.

He didn't expect that Wusun and Guizi would exert such a lot of strength.

Especially Wusun, even if the eldest prince leads the team, there are more than 200 people who are nobles.

If it is placed in the Han Dynasty, it is equivalent to sending more than 200 officials of high status in one mission.

And the fact is, what is the number of officials in this mission led by Lu Jia himself?

So far, there are basically five real officials, one of themselves, one of the two deputy envoys, Xue Tuo, and Wang Ting, the deputy lieutenant.

There are only these five officials, and the 'apprentices' under his command have not yet been officially appointed as officials.

At best, they are officials, but it is undeniable that as long as they can return to Luoyang this time, they will definitely be knighted.

"As far as this envoy knows, it seems that Dawan also sent an envoy to visit the two countries of Wusun and Qiuzi, right?" Lu Jia was still a little uneasy.

There are still 3,000 Dawan soldiers hanging behind him, which has proved that the previous revelation of Adoli is true.

"That's right!" The two smiled slightly, and there was no hiding anything about it.

On the contrary, he generously admitted it, but then said: "King Dawan sent an envoy to visit, claiming that the Han Dynasty was about to wave his troops westward, and when the time comes, no one in the Western Regions will be able to escape, so if you want to keep your pasture and power, you must find a way to prevent the Han army from entering the Western Regions, and the best way is to stop the Han envoys and let them stay in the Western Regions forever, so that the Han Dynasty does not know the depth of the Western Regions, so naturally they will not dare to send troops rashly, and then, every time the Han Dynasty sends an envoy, we will intercept it once." ”

"Dawan's statement has been recognized by some people, but it has also been rejected by more people, the strength of Dahan Everyone knows, if Dahan really wants to enter the Western Regions, no one can stop it, Dawan can't do it, Wusun can't do it, Qiuzi can't do it, even if it's a tripartite alliance, it can't be done either."

"That's right!" The Qiuzi envoy nodded and confirmed the words of the Wusun envoy, and then said: "King Dawan is really calculating, in terms of geographical location, his Dawan is the farthest away from the Han Dynasty, if the Han Dynasty marches into the Western Regions, Qiuci will bear the brunt, and it will be absolutely impossible for him Dawan to send troops to support at that time." Maybe when the time comes, Qiuzi won't be able to bear it, and Dawan will directly raise his hand and surrender? ”

"So we openly agreed to King Dawan's request and sent troops to pretend to stop the Han envoys, but secretly we also organized a mission to prepare to return to the Han with the Han envoys."

"Originally, it was to prevent Wusun and Dawan from noticing, but I didn't expect that Wusun would have the same idea as Qiuzi......"

Listening to the description of the two, Lu Jia smiled helplessly.

There's not much to say.

On the surface, they are afraid that the other party will agree to Dawan, and if they don't agree, there will inevitably be a fight.

So he agreed on the surface, but secretly sent a mission.

As a result, I didn't expect that both families had the same idea, and as a result, the mission crashed, so there was no need to hide anything now.

So the two discussed it and decided to simply merge the two into one.

"Han envoy, King Dawan's actions are really hateful, so we have also decided to give Han envoys and Han a gift......
