Chapter 940: The Great Moon Returns
There are more than a dozen small countries in the Western Regions, with a population of only a few hundred or thousand, not only to prevent the annexation of large countries, but also to worry about horse thieves slaughtering the city, and it is not easy to find a backer who can provide them with protection and will not annex them.
Xiao Wan will become the absolute overlord of the Western Regions in the future, this is an undoubted thing, when the time comes, the other countries in the Western Regions will be conquered by them, how should the Western Regions allies deal with themselves?
The best choice is to be loyal to Xiao Wan before this happens.
Annexed by Dayue or Wusun, their country will perish, the people will become slaves, submit to Xiaowan, and keep the country, this is already the best choice.
Tang Ning asked Mr. Xu to set aside an area in the city to house the people of the Western Regions allies.
As a result, those large and small countries in the Western Regions were either annexed or chose to submit, and the entire Western Regions completely formed a three-legged trend.
Among them, Xiaowan is the most powerful, but the combination of Dayue and Wusun cannot be underestimated, fortunately, they have occupied Dayue City, so that the Dayue soldiers will be isolated, people's hearts are scattered, and there is more and more good news on the battlefield.
After Mr. Xu arranged the matter of receiving the allies, he stood quietly behind Tang Ning, and after a while, he asked, "The minister is bold, I want to ask the lord of the country a question." ”
Mr. Xu used to be a native of Chen Guo, it is said that his family suffered from trouble, and the government not only did not make decisions for him, but sheltered the powerful squire.
Over the years, he has made great contributions to Xiao Wan, and he has risked his life and been undercover by King Kang's side for many years.
After Tang Ning left the Western Regions, he still had to take care of this place, he smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, it's okay to say it. ”
Mr. Xu looked at him and was silent for a moment before asking, "After unifying the Western Regions, how does the lord plan to treat the Chen Kingdom?" ”
When he asked this sentence, he did not mention Da Yue and Wusun, as if in his eyes, Xiao Wan unified the Western Regions, and these two could not hinder Xiao Wan's unification.
Today's Xiao Wan is hostile to Chen Guo, and Chen Guo has deployed 400,000 troops on the border to prevent Xiao Wan's invasion.
Mr. Xu's words made Tang Ning fall into deep thought.
He thought for a while and said: "War is the original sin, Xiaowan's soldiers also have parents and family, don't ignore their lives for the sake of family grievances." ”
The Tang family, Emperor Chen, and the court of the Chen State have some grievances that have not been settled, but the culprits of this matter have all been returned to dust, and their family of three has also been reunited.
Tang Ning has always had a special affection for Chen Guo, and he can't do things that have caused millions of people to fall into war for these grievances that are not life and death.
Mr. Xu had already received the answer to this question, nodded his head, and said, "The minister knows." ”
Then, he bowed to Tang Ning, "Xiaowan has the lord of the country, and it is the blessing of the people......"
……
Wusun City.
Since the news of the capture of Dayue City came, the entire Wusun Kingdom has fallen into a huge panic.
The Great Moon army was already homeless, and Wusun became the last place in the desert that was not conquered by Xiao Wan.
However, on the day of the fall of Wusun City, they seem to have seen it.
In the past few days, there have been more than ten wars, large and small, and the allied forces of the two countries have not won a single victory.
Under the heavy pressure of Xiaowan's army, Wusun has become a lonely city, and the people in the city and the allied forces of the two countries can only retreat in the city, outsiders cannot enter the city, and they cannot leave the city.
Xiao Wan has a steady stream of support, but for every point of food consumed in Wusun City, there is a point less.
Today's Wusun City, not only to feed hundreds of thousands of people, but also responsible for the grain and grass of the two countries' coalition forces, for a large city with rich grain reserves, although it can be affordable in a short time, but in the long run, Wusun will definitely face the embarrassing situation of food shortage.
Inside the city, in the camp of Otsuki.
A soldier looked at the gruel in the bowl and cursed angrily: "How is it less than yesterday!" ”
Several of his companions shook their heads, all lamenting in their hearts.
These Dayue troops have become homeless, Dayue City has been breached, they have lost food, grass and reinforcements, and can only rely on Wusun's temporary relief, but for them who have to fight on the battlefield often, how can this gruel?
In the barracks, in the tent, several generals surrounded the commander of the big moon, their faces showed anger, and one of them put the bowl on the table and said: "General, look at it, Wusun treats friendly troops like this, and the food they sent today is thirty percent less than yesterday!" ”
This General Dayue's face was calm, and he said, "General Ben knows, you go down first." ”
After everyone left, a trace of helplessness appeared on his face.
The two armies are united, and they fight against Xiao Wan together, one is prosperous, and the other is lost, it stands to reason that Wusun will never dare to do anything bad to the friendly army, but with Wusun's current situation, their own food is not enough, and they have to take care of the Dayue army, which is already considered benevolent and righteous.
Since learning of the fall of Otsuki Castle, there have been several riots in the Otsuki army every day.
The soldiers here, their families are all in Otsuki City, and no one knows what the situation in the city is like at this moment.
This makes everyone have no intention of fighting at all, and even he is worried about his wife and children who are far away in Dayue City.
But Xiao Wan's offensive was more and more fierce, and while they were tired of parrying, fear finally began to rise in their hearts.
When facing an opponent who is simply unbeatable, this feeling will come to anyone's heart.
He sat in the tent for a day, and when he stood up, it was as if he had made a decision.
He walked to the door and instructed the two guards, "Gather all the generals and come to the tent to discuss the ......."
……
In the blink of an eye, another month has passed, and now it is the beginning of November, and there are still two months before the end of the year.
Yesterday, Lao Zheng came with good news again, Xiao Wan was on the battlefield, and had completely suppressed Da Yue and Wusun, and the elders who infiltrated Wusun City also successfully got in touch with Xiao Wan's undercover agent in Wusun, and under their internal and external cooperation, no accident, Wusun will be taken down within half a month.
Tang Ning calculated the time, if they could take Wusun in half a month, and then spend half a month discussing the policies and guidelines after the unification of the Western Regions with the ministers, it would be possible to return to Guizhou for a reunion year.
Tang Yaoyao looked at Tang Ning and asked, "Are you going back soon?" ”
Tang Ning nodded and said, "At most, we can go back to Qiandi." ”
Tang Xiaoyao just hummed, and didn't say anything anymore, and his mood didn't seem to be high.
The little one on the side also looked a little excited.
Tang Ning was a little strange, the two of them had been criticizing the weather in the Western Regions for a long time, and they didn't want to stay here longer, but after hearing the news of going home, they didn't show any joy.
He looked at Tang Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao suspiciously, and asked, "What's the matter, don't you want to go back?" ”
Tang Yaoyao naturally couldn't tell him that she was lost because after returning to Qiandi, she could no longer live a two-person world with Tang Ning, but thinking of these days, she had occupied Tang Ning for a long time, and she felt guilty about the thoughts that had just risen, and quickly sorted out her mood, with a smile on her face, and said: "Yes, I have long wanted to miss them......
Xiaoxiao looked up at Tang Ning and asked, "Brother, are there a lot of insects in Qiandi?" ”
Tang Ning was a little dumbfounded, she couldn't have imagined that her martial arts were already the top in the world, but she would be afraid of those bugs?
But girls, it's normal to be afraid of these, no wonder she has never been very willing to learn Gu arts, it turns out that the crux is here.
Tang Ning touched her head and said, "When you go to Qiandi, let the elders sprinkle some deworming medicine around your room, and there will be no insects approaching......
Xiao nodded, still a little depressed.
Tang Ning was about to comfort her again, Mr. Xu knocked on the door, walked to the courtyard, looked at him and said, "Lord, the big moon has descended ......"
