Out of the village, Huo Yang continued to walk, along the long road, passing through villages and towns.

All the way, as far as the eyes can see, there are fields and ditches everywhere.

Countless Hu slaves and maids work in it.

Juyan's young and strong people now only need to be responsible for basic guidance and farming.

Most of the heavy physical work and tedious and simple things are taken care of by the Hu people.

As a result, they were able to save countless hours of time.

So that they can have time to organize and train at a time when they used to have to devote all their energy to running the farm.

Young people on horseback came and whizzed away in groups, and between the roads and fields, children riding foals or goats, with pigtails, frolicked together.

On top of the city fortress and side walls, heavily armed soldiers paid attention, observed, and guarded every passerby.

The waiter even saw the patrol of the Eagle Yang Brigade, which was known as the Che Cavalry General's pro-army.

Hundreds of light horsemen, straddle * riding tall horses, wearing leather armor, walked slowly in silence, and the aura of slaughter overflowed, making everyone who saw them shudder.

And in the city fortress, in the living room, the sound of looms and looms is endless.

"How many weavers are there......" the messenger frowned, his mood a little dull.

Along the way, there are dozens or hundreds of beacons and city ceremonies, most of them are three or five hundred, and dozens of people are spinning and weaving.

They work day and night to produce and weave wool.

Merchants from Hexi, Bingzhou, and even Guanzhong and Luoyang lined up to buy gold, five-baht coins, grain, salt and vinegar, and other things.

In the long run, I am afraid that in a few years, I will be able to break even.

There is no longer a need for the Dasi Nong to level the level of the transfer of materials.

In other words, by that time, I am afraid that this general will be uncontrollable!

………………………………

"General ......" Zhang Anshi was studying the documents reported from all over Juyan, when Huang Ba walked in and reported to him: "I just received a report from Qu Li: The envoy of Wusun has arrived in Qiuci and will arrive in half a month at the latest!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Anshi nodded and said, "The Wusun people have finally woken up?" ”

In the past few months, Zhang Anshi has been waiting, waiting for the Wusun people to take the initiative to connect.

Which Cheng thought, wait until today, there will be no news.

This made him a little angry, but for the sake of Princess Jiewu, Zhang Anshi didn't care about the Wusun people.

"Brother Huang......" Zhang Anshi said to Huang Ba: "Please go to Loulan and greet the envoy in the name of Ben Hou!" ”

"No matter how you say it, Han and Wu are also allies!"

Well, an alliance that almost exists in name only!

To tell the truth, the fault is not the relationship between the princesses who solve their worries, and the fault is not that the Han family advocates faithfulness.

At least at the national level, a nail must be spitted in one mouthful.

Otherwise, Zhang Anshi wanted to tear up the previous treaty and set up troops to recruit this Erwuzai.

"No!" Huang Ba gladly accepted this order.

"Anything else?" Zhang Anshi asked.

"General Huiyu, there is indeed a ......" Huang Ba lowered his head and said: "Some time ago, the last general met Hu Shang from Dawan in Juyan, according to what he said, now King Wan is no longer the king of cicadas......"

"Huh?!" When Zhang Anshi heard this, he immediately stood up, with a fierce light on his face.

At the beginning, when Emperor Xiaowu was Li Guangli, he attacked Dawan twice, and in four years, let the Wan people kneel down and sing about conquest, kill the faint king who took the lead in opposing the Han Dynasty and was stubborn, and brought his head back to Chang'an.

Then, Li Guangli set up a message for him in the course of the war, and acted as the widowed nephew of the leading party, Cai Cai, as the king, and the Son of Heaven later recognized him and canonized him as the 'Oak King'.

The so-called oak is also the truth.

The implication of the Son of Heaven appointing Cai as the Oak King is far-reaching, and it is the hope that the new king will lead the Wan people, naturalize the Han family, and bear fruitful fruits in the future.

After the Oak King ascended the throne, he did work hard in the direction of the hope of the Son of Heaven and the Han family.

It's a pity that his actions angered those Dawan nobles who were above the top and pretentious.

Two years after King Oak ascended the throne, he staged a coup d'état against the nobles of Dawan, who could not bear it, killed Wu Cai, and then installed his younger brother Cicada as King Wan.

Because of the fear of causing the Han army to come again, after the cicada king ascended the throne, he immediately bribed the Han envoy with a lot of money, and even took the initiative to send his son to Chang'an.

Moreover, the cicada king is indeed willing.

opened the way with gold, sweat and blood as a courtesy, and smashed open the mouths of high-ranking officials of the Han family.

It was quite low in terms of posture, so the Han family pinched their noses and recognized the legitimacy of the cicada king and canonized it.

But here's the problem......

Whether it is according to the agreement between the Han and Wu Cai at the beginning, or the promise of the Cicada King to the Son of Heaven later, the replacement of King Wan must be decided by the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty!

There is no new king canonized by the Son of Heaven,

None of them are legal.

And according to the original supplementary agreement, the new Wan King of the Cicada Queen must be in Chang'an's Dawan Proton!

You must know that in order to cultivate an excellent Dawan king, the Han family has invested a lot in that Dawan proton over the past few years.

He hired a famous teacher to teach him poetry, calligraphy, etiquette and music, and hired the daughter of a nobleman as his wife, built a mansion for him, and rewarded him with a lot of money.

For what?

Isn't it that after the death of the cicada king in the future, let this proton who was influenced by the Han culture lead Dawan to the avenue of poetry, books, rituals and music?

Make Da Van a country like South Vietnam back then.

Now, since the cicada king is dead, Wanren does not send an envoy to report, and second, he does not write a letter to ask the Son of Heaven to set up a new king.

What is this behavior?

Bring traitors!

Twenty-five boys!

Moreover, now it is Zhang Anshi, the general of the chariot, who is in charge of Hexi!

And he's only been in office for a few months!

Dawan people are nakedly slapping him, the general of the chariot and cavalry, in the face, mocking and provoking the dignity and personality of Yinghou!

"Captain Huang!" Zhang Anshi looked at Huang Ba and ordered him: "Pass my general's order, immediately send someone to Quli, and inform the Western Regions Protector of this matter, please Wang Duhu immediately send someone to investigate, be sure to find out the matter!" ”

Actually, you don't need to check!

Zhang Anshi knew that Huang Ba's information was very likely to be true!

A few days ago, the Son of Heaven sent a letter to inquire about Dawan.

Liu Xun, who is far away in Chang'an, knows that in history, Dawan broke free from the control of the Han family in this year.

The difference is that in history, the Dawan people seem to have taken the opportunity to break free when Li Guangli defeated Yu Wushui and the whole army was annihilated.

Now it seems......

Those guys, I'm afraid, aren't that smart!

They weren't smart enough to choose the timing at all, they followed their feelings!

Just like the widow back then, in front of the envoys of the Han Empire, he was arrogant and rude, and his words were disrespectful, which provoked the Han envoys to smash the golden horse in the palace, and then sent people to intercept and kill the Han mission.

Those who think they are smart are not widowed, they think that the Han Dynasty makes the sky high and the road is far away, and they believe that the Dawan phalanx is invincible, thinking that they can sit back and relax.

But he never expected that when Chaotianzi heard the news, he was furious and sent Li Guangli to the west.

The first time it didn't take down, the second time it directly increased, and an unprecedented super expedition that shook the past and the present.

The self-proclaimed invincible phalanx of the Dawan people is like a joke in front of the flexible and changeable Han cavalry.

Their Wu fort was even more in ruins in the engineering equipment of the Han army.

The Han army drove straight in, surrounded the capital of the king of Dawan, Guishan City, and beheaded the first fierce general of Dawan, so the people of Wan were frightened, and the king of the city was killed.

Thinking about it carefully, Liu Xun can understand the psychology of Dawan people.

Because, Liu Xun knew that the Dawan people were not ordinary Yidi, let alone barbarians without culture, system, and etiquette as the Han family thought.

In fact, the Dawan culture came from the only other civilization on this earth that could be compared to the Zhuxia civilization - the Greco-Macedonian civilization.

Aristotle, the homeland of Plato and Archimedes.

They are descendants of Alexander's crusades, remnants of the Seleucid dynasty, and a split part of the kingdom of Bactria.

Their ancestors, who had followed Alexander and Antiochus, punched and kicked Assan, crossed mountains and seas, and swept almost the entire world.

When Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was proclaimed emperor in Surabaya, the ancestor of the Wanren was still a great empire.

Antiochus III's expeditions to India in the east and Syria in the west made the Seleucid sunset particularly dazzling.

However......

Soon, the Romans rose and the Seleucid dynasty fell apart.

The eastern part of it soon lost contact with the mother country of Europe, and then encountered a great battle between the Huns and the Yueshi, who were defeated and fled westward.

The Yueshi cavalry, who was defeated in front of the Huns, fled westward, and immediately turned into the Great Demon King, and ruthlessly taught these European colonists who were far away from their mother country and lost their homeland.

It was also at that time that Dawan lost contact with Bactria due to a series of chain reactions triggered by the westward migration of the Yue clan.

After that, he was taught to be a man by the Han army again.

But......

In any case, the Wanren are also descendants of the great empire that once spanned the European continent.

The imprint of Greek civilization on them is still very deep.

Therefore, even if he was abused by the Yue people and abused by the Han army.

His heart must be unconvinced.

Perhaps, they are still dreaming, dreaming of another conqueror like Alexander or Antioch in their home country, who will relaunch the crusade and bring them back to Greece and Macedonia, the land of lilacs, milk and honey.

And Liu Xun also reminded Zhang Anshi in the letter.

Thinking of the letter from the Son of Heaven, Zhang Anshi couldn't help but laugh sarcastically: "I don't know whether I live or die, it's whimsical!" ”

Greek civilization and the Alexandrian Empire and the Seleucid dynasty that grew out of the body of Greek civilization.

Once upon a time, maybe it was really powerful!

However, times have changed.

Now, Greek civilization is in a position to protect itself!

In some Western historical records that Liu Xun traced, in just these years, there will be the famous Greek uprising!

And the fate of the rebels was extremely tragic.

The legions of the Romans, with blood and fire, pressed the last pride of Greek civilization to the ground and rubbed it.

Almost all the rebels were hanged in the city-states and docks.

Sparta, Athens and countless other once-glorious city-states burned in flames.

Since then, Greek civilization has weakened.

More than 90 years later, a child born to a virgin is said to have completely buried this glorious and splendid civilization.

Aristotle, Plato, Archimedes, Alexander, Seleucid and even Rome, became legends.

The temples of Athena, Zeus, and Poseidon were all pushed to.

Greek philosophy, mathematics, engineering, military affairs, art, and religion all withered.

It would be another 1,600 years for a man named Copernicus to break the deadlock, and then the so-called Renaissance would be ushered in, digging the dead Greek civilization out of the legends and graves.

Therefore, the stubbornness of the Dawan people, in Zhang Anshi's view, is as ridiculous and pitiful as the stubbornness of Chen Guojun's ministers in the history books.

No matter how awesome the ancestors are, they are also awesome ancestors!

Sun Tzu is a weak scumbag, so you have to recognize the reality!

When beaten, you must stand upright, and if you do wrong, you must correct!

According to the description of the letter from the Son of Heaven, Zhang Anshi sketched out the general situation of the matter.

Huang Ba was beside him, looking at Zhang Anshi's expression, he thought there was something, so he asked, "What else does the general command?" ”

"Others?" Zhang Anshi pursed his lips and said, "Don't worry about it for the time being, first understand the reality of the Dawan people, figure it out!" ”

Zhang Anshi is really curious, who gave the Dawan people the courage to set up a king on their own without consulting the Han family and informing the Son of Heaven?

Liang Jingru?

"Nuo ......" Huang Ba bowed his head and took the order.

"By the way......" Zhang Anshi suddenly stopped Huang Ba, who was about to leave, and asked, "Is there any recent movement between the King of Loulan and the Lord of Zhuyi?" ”

Since arriving in Hexi, in addition to civil affairs and military, Zhang Anshi is most concerned about the belly of Princess Zhuyi.

There is no one more concerned about this matter than he is.

It's a pity that the princess of Zhuyi doesn't seem to be very good, and she has never heard the news that the current queen of Loulan is pregnant.

This made Zhang Anshi a little embarrassed, he originally planned to wait for Princess Zhuyi to give birth to a son, and then kill the king of Loulan.

"General Hui......" Huang Ba replied with some embarrassment: "The last general heard that it seems that the lord of Zhuyi has been hiring women and medical officers who are good at protecting the fetus recently......"

"Oh......" Zhang Anshi immediately became happy.

Huang Ba lowered his head and blushed a little.

How did he not know which King of Loulan was a eunuch without a little hook?

As the queen, her husband has no little hook, but he is asking for a woman and doctor who protects the fetus and raises the fetus, isn't it just to tell others that the princess of Zhuyi is raising a little white face?

This is embarrassing for the Han family doctors.

Therefore, everyone took the initiative to help hide this matter.

Just like Huang Ba, Zhang Anshi doesn't ask, he won't say it at all.

No way, it's too embarrassing!

The Emperor of the Han Dynasty steals a man?

Spread it out, let alone the Son of Heaven, they can't hang their faces.

is the only Zhang Anshi, not only did he not feel anything wrong, but he was very happy.

The geographical location and strategic position of Loulan are extremely important.

Especially now, in the future, it will become the most important military and economic point of the Han Empire in the Western Regions.

Become the forward base of the Han family to run the Western Regions!

How can Yidi be the king in such a place?

Changing cages for birds, changing blood for seeds, is the king.

Since ancient times, in addition to the benevolence and morality of Wei Guangzheng recorded in the history books, Wang Ye also needs blood to water and flesh to fertilize.

Even the legendary soup king who 'opens the net on three sides, and Ze reaches birds and beasts' is the same.

Even if he is the idol of Confucius, the eternal saint Zhou Gong, he is also a ruthless person with blood on his hands.

After reading countless classics and experiencing countless things.

Zhang Anshi has understood a truth - the so-called benevolence, righteousness and morality, which is spoken to Zhuxia's siblings, this so-called inner king.

And the thunder and the storm are given to Yidi, this is the foreign tyrant.

Of course, these things can't be said to be broken.

No matter how dirty the work in the hands is, the mouth must be full of benevolence and morality.

Brainwashing, this is the art of justice!
