Three days later, an army of 30,000 arrived in Dawan and soon surrounded the city of the Far East.

At this time, Jiang Hu was stationed in the extreme eastern city, and there were 5,000 Qin troops under his command.

The monarch of Dawan has died, Daqin is here to avenge them, although the people of the Dayue clan have left when they come, but Jiang Hu obviously has no intention of withdrawing the army, after all, it is not allowed to go over the mountains and mountains, and Dawan here is rich in water and grass, fertile land, developed agriculture, fruits and vegetables everywhere, wheat as the staple food is much better than Daqin's harvest, and the climate is much better than that of the Western Regions, so Jiang Hu found that he liked it here, so he stationed down to organize Dawan's subjects to repair the royal city to produce and save themselves, and at the same time, he also sent a large number of scouts to inquire about the situation in all directions, and roughly explore the adjacent Kangju, Anxi, and Great Xia, which have been captured by the Dayue clan.

Antiochus III led a large army suddenly, and Jiang Hu, who got the news, did not arrange an army to meet the battle, but ordered the Qin army and Dawan soldiers to retreat into the defense of the Extreme East City, so Antiochus III quickly surrounded the Extreme East City, but soon found that the Great Qin Dragon Banner was flying above the Extreme East City, and then Antiochus III was even more angry, thinking that the Qin army had attacked his troops.

"Tell me, did the Qin army attack you?" After besieging the Far Eastern City, Antiochus III called the general who had been chasing Li Shun's mission and shouted questions.

"No, no, Your Majesty, it shouldn't have been the Great Qin people who attacked us, those people's weapons are very rudimentary, similar to those steppe barbarians in the north, and they still carried a large number of livestock and clansmen at the beginning, you see that the Qin army on the city wall is neatly and well-equipped, they are definitely not a group!" The general shook his head in denial.

"Didn't you say that those people were attacking the Far East City when they first came?" Antioch yelled angrily.

"At the beginning, they were indeed attacking the Far East City, but it was definitely not the Qin army in the city, the race was particularly mixed, there were Cypriots and Kangju people......"

"How so?" Although Antiochus was angry that the Li Shun delegation had abducted Althea, he also knew that Althea herself hated him.

Because he has carefully investigated in the capital in the past few months, all those who have had contact with Althea have been arrested and interrogated strictly, and it is generally clear that Althea really wants to escape, and he secretly joined a caravan of Great Xia, and this caravan has been witnessed joining the Great Qin Mission outside the city, and the Li Shun delegation does not necessarily know that Althea is hiding in the caravan.

But in any case, Althea left with the caravan and traveled thousands of miles all the way, and the mission had no reason why it could not recognize Aasia, because he had already learned that Althea had been in secret contact with Li Shun alone, and I don't know if the two had an adulterous affair, but it must have something to do with Althea's escape.

Now that Daqin has occupied Dawan, it is very likely that the Daqin delegation has crossed the snow-capped mountain plateau and returned to Daqin, or it is in Dawan City.

After thinking about it, Antiochus III decided to force the Qin army in the city to hand over the Li Shun mission, and he must bring Althea back, otherwise once the news spreads, he will soon become a joke of countless countries in the East and West.

At this time, Jiang Hu in the city also learned from the mouths of Dawan's subjects that the well-equipped and well-trained army in front of him was the Sabbath people, and through the telescope, the guy in the middle wearing shorts and the Toba crown should be the commander of the Sabbath people.

Five thousand against thirty thousand, if it is a battle on the plains, Jiang Hu still has to think about it, but now he occupies the advantage of the extreme eastern city, Jiang Hu believes that the rest of the people will not be able to take advantage of it at all, and Jiang Hu is actually very excited, I heard that the rest of the people is a big country in the west, and the marquis of Qinghe also reminded him that the strength of the rest people is no less than that of Daqin, and now he has just come to meet him, so he wants to weigh the strength of the rest people, so as to accumulate more experience for the future of Daqin to conquer the west.

After besieging the Far East City, Antiochus III sent an interpreter to loudly convey his request to the city, and Jiang Hu listened to the interpreter's translation with a bewildered face.

Li Shun's mission to the West He knew that it was his platoon of 500 soldiers who escorted Li Shun's mission to the green ridge, but today he heard that the rest of the people said that the Li Shun mission kidnapped the fiancée of the king of peace, what kind of stalk is this, is Li Shun so awesome?

However, Jiang Hu knew that Li Shun did not come to Dawan and did not return to Daqin at the moment, so in order to make this matter clearer, so as not to be confused and fight a battle cheaper for the people of the Dayue clan, Jiang Hu still asked the interpreter to tell Antiochus III that they had not yet seen the Li Shun mission, and as for the accusation of abducting Antioch's fiancée, he would not admit it, but warned Antiochus III that Li Shun, as the envoy of the Great Qin Mission, was ordered by the First Emperor to rest in peace, and brought exquisite gifts for friendship and trade. Now Antiochus inexplicably pursued and killed the Great Qin Mission, resulting in the disappearance of the Great Qin Mission, if the Great Qin Mission has three longs and two shorts, the Great Qin will inevitably raise a national army to seek rest.

The Great Qin people will not admit defeat in this kind of thing in a war, and they will naturally not be convinced in this kind of thing of quarreling, and it is just a big deal to fight, so Jiang Hu's tone is also very aggressive.

After listening to Jiang Hu's solemn statement and warning, Antioch vomited blood three times in anger, and directly ordered the army to form a shield array and start attacking the extreme eastern city, and as a great Qin general who grew up in the war, Jiang Hu not only fought bravely but also was familiar with the art of war, and calmly commanded the Qin army and the Dawan soldiers to defend the city and counterattack.

The arrows on both sides were overwhelming, and after three days of fighting, Antioch could not bear it.

The food, grass and arrows he brought from afar were not enough, and after three days of consuming most of the arrows, the city wall remained immovable, and he suffered hundreds of casualties, so under the persuasion of a group of vassals, he had to temporarily withdraw his troops and send envoys into the city to inquire about the situation.

And inexplicably after three days of fighting with the rest people, the Qin army and the Dawan soldiers also suffered hundreds of casualties, which was completely thankless, and Jiang Hu was also relieved in the face of Antioch's softness, and told the envoys that the people who attacked them at the beginning were the people of the Dayue clan, and now they have captured Great Xia, if they want to take revenge, they should go quickly, and Jiang Hu also solemnly warned the rest envoys that no matter what the truth of the matter is, the Li Shun mission must not make any mistakes, otherwise it will provoke a war between the rest and the Great Qin.

After receiving the return of the envoy, Antiochus decided to withdraw after thinking twice and go to trouble the people of the Otsuki clan first, and he guessed that the Li Shun delegation was very likely to go to Great Xia first, if so, maybe this trip could find the Li Shun mission, and then capture Althea.

After Antiochus III withdrew from the army, Jiang Hu hurriedly wrote a note about this situation and the disappearance of Li Shun's mission, and arranged for a messenger to be sent to Xianyang as soon as possible.

This was the third wave of messengers he had sent since he arrived in Far East.

There are more than 12,000 miles from Dawan to Xianyang, plus there are thousands of miles to cross the snow-capped mountains and plateaus and cross the vast Gobi and desert in the Western Regions.

And if Li Shun and the others are unlucky, they may have lost their bones and scum after more than half a year.

But at the moment, Jiang Hu didn't dare to send troops to the Dayue clan or rest in peace to find the whereabouts of Li Shun's mission, so he could only send some soldiers to follow Dawan's caravan to Daxia, rest and poison and other places to secretly inquire about the situation.

A month later, it enters July.

The Western Regions and other places and the northwest of Daqin and Guanzhong have entered autumn one after another, especially the places in the Western Regions, it seems that the taste of winter has begun in an instant, the desert is raging with wind and sand, and the colors that are verdant on weekdays begin to wither and wither in a few days.

A Dawan caravan returning from Daqin crossed the rugged and difficult green ridge before the autumn, and when they returned to the Dawan royal city with a large number of enamel defective products, they knew that their king had been hanged, and a Daqin army had been stationed in the city, and now Dawan has no monarch, and has been temporarily taken over by the Daqin army, and Jiang Hu, the general of the Qin state, is waiting for the order of the Daqin emperor, whether to completely occupy Dawan or re-canonize a Dawan monarch to submit to Daqin and become a vassal state.

There is no chance to resist if you resist, because the Qin army has completely taken over the royal city, and all the Dawan ministers must obey Jiang Hu's arrangement, but fortunately, the military discipline of the Daqin people is quite strict, except for patrolling the city and nearby villages and towns, the most you can do is eat white food and prostitute a little lady, compared with the ferocious and barbaric Dayue people, it is simply an angelic existence, so all the Dawan people do not hate the Daqin army, but many people are very happy to have the protection of the Daqin people, after all, the Dayue people have just retreated for less than three months, The bloody and murderous scene of the massacre in the city is still fresh in the memory of many people, and there is already news from the Great Xia Kingdom that the Great Yue Clan has completely captured Great Xia, slaughtering more than 100,000 people, and the monarch of Great Xia and countless nobles and civilians have been killed, and the blood is flowing like a river of corpses.

Compared with what happened to Great Xia, because of the existence of Great Qin, Dawan was able to survive and not be destroyed.

In order to repay the brave Daqin soldiers, the Dawan people not only sent a large amount of food and clothing to the military camp, but also many unmarried girls or widowed women took the initiative to come to the military camp to find a Daqin soldier as a husband.

Because after the massacre of the Dayue clan, there were almost two percent fewer adult men in Wangcheng and nearby towns, and nearly 20,000 soldiers were all slaughtered.

For this kind of thing, Jiang Hu also turned a blind eye.

After three years of eating sand and soil in the Western Regions, this group of Great Qin soldiers has accumulated a lot of negative emotions in their hearts, and many of them have gradually become tired and dissatisfied.

And he doesn't care much about the enamel equipment incident that worried Jiang Hu before, because he has received an urgent letter from his brother Jiang Pu's servants, and the enamel incident has been resolved, so he just needs to wait for the emperor's arrangement with peace of mind, and then wait for the news to cooperate with the court to carry out military reform.

Jiang Pu did not write down the specific content of the military reform too clearly, but there were already general signs, that is, the scope of conscription and the way of service will undergo tremendous changes, and ordinary soldiers over the age of 30 will be discharged.

At present, among the 10,000 horse pawns under Jiang Hu, more than half are over thirty years old.

From the dismantling of the Northwest Army seven years ago to the present, these tens of thousands of people have hardly been replaced.

After a long period of service, arduous battles, and a blank stay in the Western Regions far from their homeland for several years, both soldiers and generals have been suppressed to the extreme, and the reason for maintaining the army's strong combat effectiveness is the strict laws and military discipline of Great Qin.

These elite horsemen have participated in the conquest of the Xiongnu, Yueshi, Wusun and the Western Regions Wars, large and small, dozens of battles, large and small, all of them have accumulated a lot of military merits, if these military exploits can be honored after retirement, then everyone will be satisfied.

But what worries Jiang Hu is that according to the eldest brother Jiang Pu in the letter, this military reform will cancel the current 20-level military merit knighthood system, so how to redeem the knighthood and rewards after these soldiers retire is still a mystery, plus the enamel incident heard that the emperor was extremely angry, and the final outcome may be that the military merits of all soldiers will be canceled, so these soldiers will not have the slightest land and real estate as a reward after retiring, which is extremely unfair to the 20,000 soldiers who fought hard for Daqin to expand the territory.

Therefore, Jiang Hu was very angry in his heart, and while waiting for the orders of the imperial court, he also began to loosen the control of the soldiers, hoping to appease the negative emotions that had accumulated for a long time in these soldiers who had followed him for several years.
