Chapter 544: Corpses Everywhere (17)
The second Longyou War, the war in the west of Longyou has ended, the main battlefield of Longyou North Road, only a lonely city in the state remains, there are still 70,000 or 80,000 Tubo troops, but the overall situation has been decided, everyone understands that the war has actually ended, and the first Longyou War, Tubo was defeated again, and this time the defeat was much more tragic than the last time.
Hundreds of cavalry galloped along the road.
Li Xun stopped, and looked at a small city not far away, outside the city, a Jingguan made of thousands of human heads, which made people look creepy.
Hua Shaosheng asked in a low voice beside him, "Lord, it's better to set it on fire." ”
Li Xun was silent for a while, and finally shook his head and sighed, "Let them be buried in peace." ”
"Yes, my lord."
Hua Shaosheng responded, led more than 30 people, and stepped forward to deal with the Jingguan.
Li Xun got off his horse, looked at the ruined scene around him, shook his head, and sighed again.
This is Yanchi County in Shazhou, and then go further is Guazhou, and after Guazhou is Minzhou, the easternmost part of the western part of Longyou, the destination of Li Xun's trip is Xiaogu County, Minzhou, the news of Gewa's killing has reached Wuzhou, Hou Quan, Niu Jin, Hu Xian and others are now resting in Xiaogu County.
The war in Wuzhou had just ended a few days, and there were a lot of things, but Li Xun threw everything to Fan Zhongyun, Sima Zhen and others to deal with.
"Dashuai, you don't have to be too sad, after this battle, Tubo has suffered so many casualties, the country is shaken, there is no twenty or thirty years that cannot be recovered, Longyou Dao should have a long period of peace and tranquility." Seeing that Li Xun was in a bad mood, Li Cunxiao walked closer and comforted him softly.
"I hope so."
Li Cunxiao looked at the inexplicable look on Li Xun's face, and couldn't help but ask strangely: "The biggest threat to Longyou is Tubo, now that Tubo has been disabled, what else can pose a big threat to Longyou?" ”
Li Xun smiled and didn't speak, if it was before, he would have thought the same way, but the news that Liu Xie and Beijiang would have come back from the Western Regions, after the analysis and speculation of Fan Zhongyun, Sima Tu and others, Li Xun had a different understanding of some of these things.
The once powerful Dashi Empire has been destroyed, in this earth-shattering change, the once equally powerful Lunar Eclipse Empire has also perished, replaced by a more powerful, emerging Persian Empire, its founding emperor is only thirty-eight years old, named Chesis, the former Lunar Eclipse Empire Persia and the governor of Simeria, is such a little-known person, but in this earth-shattering change, like a bright starlight, suddenly shining with infinite light, extinguishing the two great empires of the lunar eclipse and Dashi, He took the vast territory into his own hands and created a huge empire that has never been seen before.
The light of Chessis is too strong, so that although the countries of the Western Regions are also victorious countries, they undoubtedly dare not compete with them, so they can only retreat to the Western Regions, and dare not touch the territory of the Dashi Empire, the current situation is that Chessis focuses on stabilizing the internal situation, clearing the remnants, and there is a Western Regions in between, so for the powerful Persian Empire, Li Xun is not too worried at present.
What Li Xun is really worried about is the Western Regions.
The Western Regions have a vast area, a population of tens of millions, rich in food, and the vast majority of the people who live here are well-fed, because of this, the commerce of the Western Regions will be so developed, but at the same time, there are thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, each of which is independent, and the power is not strong, in the history of thousands of years, the Western Regions have had several unified dynasties, but the time is very short, most of the time, the Western Regions are divided, so whether it is the Tubo or the Jin Dynasty or the Dashi Empire, the Western Regions have never been taken seriously, Li Xun used to think the same way, Wuzhou was close to the Western Regions, but he had never worried about the military threat from the Western Regions.
The second Battle of Longyou broke out, and a shocking war broke out between Tubo and the Jin Dynasty, and everyone's eyes were focused on the Longyou battlefield, but who could have known that thousands of miles away, a war that was not much smaller than here had lasted for several years, and the entire Western Regions were united, facing the powerful Dashi Empire, and had achieved the ultimate victory.
The situation of the Western Regions countries being independent has been formed for hundreds of years, and the division between countries has been formed for a long time, you only recognize your country, I only recognize my country, this ideology has been deeply rooted, but the military invasion of the Dashi Empire has changed all this.
In this life-and-death war, there is one person who stood up, that is, Zhan Bai, the prince of Anshu, defeated the army of the Dashi Empire several times with inferior forces, and in the subsequent war against the Dashi Empire, he gradually became the leader of the Western Regions, and finally led the Western Regions to win the war.
The power of idols is powerful, and any move and plan by Jhamber will be widely supported and embraced.
The war between the Western Regions and the Dashi Empire has ended, and each country has begun its own life, but the military strength of the 36 countries in the Western Regions, nearly 200,000 troops, is still gathered on the border of the Dashi Empire, and it has not returned to their respective countries with the end of the war.
Liu Xie spent a lot of money to buy off Zhan Bai's henchmen, and got important news that Zhan Bai has been supported and supported by most of the high-level generals in the army, and Zhan Bai's next plan is to use absolute strength and military power to force the countries of the Western Regions to agree to form a unified power core similar to a coalition government, which is equivalent to indirectly unifying the countries of the Western Regions in one regime.
A unified Western Regions is absolutely powerful, and with such a powerful regime next to each other, the pressure in Li Xun's heart can be imagined.
The source of Li Xun's pressure is very simple, a scattered Western Regions countries, there is not much threat to anyone, even if it is Longyou two years ago, Li Xun has accumulated a certain strength in his hands, at that time, if he faces the unified Western Regions, Li Xun still has enough confidence to face any challenge, but the current environment and situation are very different, Tubo has been completely defeated, the once powerful Dashi Empire has also fallen, although Persia has risen, but the internal instability, it is impossible to continue to expand in a short time, in this case, If Zhan Bai can really unify and gather all the forces of the Western Regions, then the next direction is likely to be the western part of Longyou, and now Longyou has just ended a tragic war, and its military strength is declining, and it is unknown whether it can protect itself in the face of the unified Western Regions.
