Chapter 1047: Dingxi Regions (First Update)

According to the records of the historical books, in this battle, Li Mu not only defeated the entire main force of the Xiongnu in one fell swoop, but also pursued the victory, chased a distance of thousands of miles, captured more than 100,000 Xiongnu troops, millions of Xiongnu livestock, cattle and sheep, and achieved an incomparably brilliant victory.

After this great battle, Uwei Shan Yu had to lead the remnants of the Xiongnu to flee back to Mobei Dragon City.

The entire Western Regions was now completely owned by the Zhao State, and many surviving small states sent envoys to visit Li Mu, and at the same time submitted to Handan, hoping to make the Zhao State their new patron as they had submitted to the Xiongnu before.

Speaking of which, this is also the sorrow of small countries, and there is no other way but to grovel.

What's more, Li Mu's previous auctions have greatly shocked the monarchs of these small countries, and they don't want to wake up one day and be told that "your country has been sold by our Metropolitan Governor, and you are limited to leave immediately within three days." "That's the case.

But the monarchs of these small countries didn't know that the oases and territories they currently occupied had actually been regarded by Li Mu as the territory of the Zhao State for a long time.

The reason why these lands are still retained is only because Li Mu wants to reserve land for the future large-scale migration of Zhao State according to Zhao Dan's orders.

For the Chinese people, only the land is the most attractive thing.

Although Li Mu also knew very well that at the beginning, they were basically rangers, criminals, Chengdan and the like, but these people are also Chinese, and letting others immigrate here will always give people a piece of land so that people can live.

But in any case, since the Huns have been defeated, in Li Mu's opinion, the problem of the Western Regions has been half solved.

Needless to say, the next thing to be solved is, of course, in the west of the Western Regions, the Governor of Bactria, Diodorus, who is eyeing the Western Regions.

Li Mu summoned Perseus, who had not been seen for a long time.

"Perseus, I think you already know where you are, right?" Li Mu looked at Perseus in front of him and said very calmly.

Perseus sighed and asked Ales, who was beside him, to translate: "Dear Grand Duke, the old Perseus is no longer of any use to you, if you can, please leave Perseus so that his bones can be returned to the land of Bactria." As long as you can grant his small request, the Perseus family will recognize Zhao's complete occupation of the Western Regions and become your most loyal allies of the Grand Duke. ”

Now Perseus has completely thought about it now, and he no longer wants to talk nonsense about cooperation, but hopes to impress Li Mu and let Li Mu let him leave the territory of the Zhao people.

As long as he could be free, Perseus thought he had enough to move back to the scene.

Perseus, however, was doomed to disappointment.

Li Mu looked at Perseus very calmly and said, "Mr. Perseus, maybe you don't know yet, the city of Bactra is actually in my pocket. ”

Perseus couldn't help but be stunned after listening to Li Mu's words, and then squeezed out a smile very reluctantly: "The Metropolitan Governor said that he laughed......"

Li Mu shook his head, threw a letter in front of Ales, and said, "You know Zhao Wen, right?" Read it to him. ”

Ales picked up the letter and glanced at it, then with a shocked expression on his face, he said to Perseus: "Master, the Grand Governor has sent a general named Zhao Kuo to the city of Bactria!" ”

……

"This is Bhaktra City?" Zhao Kuo looked at the tall city in front of him, and his face couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

I already knew that this long-distance attack would definitely be very hard, but Zhao Kuo really didn't expect that it would be so hard!

But hard work is hard work, when Zhao Kuo looked at the majestic city in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a faint trace of pride in his heart.

"I'm afraid it's not thousands of miles away from Handan, if I can take such a city, it will definitely be able to leave a name in history!"

At this moment, Zhao Kuo was not wearing the costume of General Zhao, but was wearing a costume that was quite awkward for him, and this costume was from Perseus's family.

Today, Zhao Kuo has a total of 2,000 Zhao cavalry around him, all of them are fully armed, carrying bows and arrows on their backs and sabers at their waists, and they are walking on the road in a grand manner.

The reason for this situation is that Zhao Kuo's current identity is a general of the Perseus family, who is responsible for leading the army of the Hu people of the Western Regions behind him to Bactra City, and gather under the command of Diodorus with the armed men of other big families, and launch an attack on a mysterious army that suddenly entered Bactria.

The so-called mysterious force is actually the cavalry led by Zhao Kuo himself.

Because Perseus changed his mind, the insiders in the Perseus family did not inform Theodorus of the news, but secretly changed Zhao Kuo and the two most elite Zhao cavalry and quietly sent them to Bactra City.

Of course, it wasn't just these two thousand cavalry, a full five thousand cavalry were sweeping through many towns in the Bactria region about two days away.

After all, in the plan agreed by Perseus before to let the Zhao people help kill Theodorus, the Zhao people would have obtained a lot of loot, so the Perseus family was completely indifferent to Zhao Kuo's behavior, anyway, as long as they didn't rob the Perseus family, the other families would attack the Zhao army at will.

Looking at the open city gate in front of him, Zhao Kuo didn't have much longing in his eyes, but turned his gaze to a large camp not far away, and asked the guide from the Perseus family beside him, "This is where your governor is gathering troops?" ”

The guide nodded, and said in a somewhat stiff Zhao language: "General, our people are ready, just waiting for you to go together." ”

Zhao Kuo smiled slightly, and suddenly took out two grenades from his hands.

"Second and third sons, the meritorious service is at this moment, come with me!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Kuo's whole person clamped the horse's belly hard, and rushed towards the military camp not far away like a sharp sword.

Moments later, the earth-shattering explosion accompanied by the light of the fire resounded in the barracks.

The historian recorded as follows: "In June, he went to Bhaktra, attacked the Seleucid camp, defeated 30,000 Seleucid soldiers and horses with a small victory, and captured the enemy Diodorus, and beheaded him. The regions of Bactria were subjugated and incorporated into the Protectorate of the Western Regions. The Seleucid king Antiochus II was furious when he heard the news, and led 100,000 troops to fight against Li Mu, but Li Mu was defeated and died of grief. Seleucus then lost the country due to civil strife due to the struggle of his sons for the throne, and did not return to the east. ”
