Sihai Pavilion as a place to receive foreign envoys, but also the face of the Han Dynasty to the outside world, in terms of attributes, Liu Yi has naturally made adjustments, comfortable, Xiang Han and other attributes have, but as an envoy of Eastern Wu, whether it is Gu Tan or Zhuge Ke did not sleep well this night, what he has seen and heard along the way, plus the weather of Chang'an, the capital, no matter from which aspect, the Han Dynasty has now surpassed the Wei Dynasty and Eastern Wu, the most terrifying thing is that the Han is still calm!

In fact, after Lu Xun burned Guan Yu's army, the Han Dynasty had the ability to attack Eastern Wu, if Liu Chan was more radical at that time and raised troops to attack Eastern Wu, it might be a continuation of another battle of Chibi, as long as Eastern Wu held, there was a chance to turn the tables, and if Wei had the opportunity, he would definitely not let it go.

It's a pity that Liu Chan didn't do this, but chose to stabilize his own strength first, and then step by step, although it gave Dongwu a chance to breathe, but the Han also in the past few years, step by step Yuzhang, Lujiang, Luling and other places stabilized, the current Han can be called the most of the Three Kingdoms!

Now that the Han is strong enough, he is still not in a hurry to attack, but continues to develop, which makes Gu Tan and Zhuge Ke a little worried, when the Han really sends troops, what kind of scene is it? Will the Wei Dynasty be able to stop it?

Dongwu is already an absolute weaker at the moment, at this time, the Han and the Great Wei are in a confrontation, and Dongwu is not qualified to intervene, no matter which side wins, even if Dongwu bets right, there is no share of Dongwu when the cake is finally divided.

Unless the Han himself is in turmoil, it is ......

At dawn the next day, Gu Tan and Zhuge Ke, who had not slept well all night, glanced at each other and smiled bitterly.

A waiter came in, bowed to the two of them and said, "Two gentlemen, the time for the court meeting is almost up, and General Zhao is already waiting for the two of you in the Four Seas Palace." ”

"Youlao, please reply to General Zhao, I'll be there later." Gu Tan said.

"Whoa!" The waiter bowed slightly and bowed to leave.

The two of them smiled bitterly, and after each washed up, they dressed up and came to see Zhao Guang, who was talking to the general Luther.

"You two didn't sleep well?" Zhao Guang looked at the two of them in surprise and said, "But is there any inconsiderate hospitality?" ”

"No, it's just that Chang'an and Jiangdong are different after all, and they are a little uncomfortable." Zhuge Ke shook his head and smiled.

"Two, Your Majesty has issued an edict, today to meet with the envoys of Eastern Wu, please follow me into the palace." Zhao Guang nodded, there are people who have had similar problems, but it is good to stay in Chang'an for a few days, it is not a big problem, but at the moment, it is more important to be summoned by the Son of Heaven.

"I'm tired." Gu Tan said politely.

Since it is the Dongwu Mission, when the court meets the Son of Heaven, there should be a guard of honor that must be there, and the accompanying guards they brought yesterday slept well, and they were in good spirits, and under the guidance of Zhao Guang, they went straight to the outside of the palace.

Just as he was about to enter the palace, he saw a rocket suddenly rise in the direction of the city wall, and at the same time a loud horn sounded.

"Quick, get out of the way!" Zhao Guang looked behind him when he heard the sound, his face changed, and he hurriedly waved his hand, and the soldiers of the Han army around him, as well as the courtiers and envoys of various countries who came quickly, quickly retreated to both sides, seeing that Gu Tan and Zhuge Ke did not know why, Zhao Guang hurriedly shouted.

Gu Tan and Zhuge Ke hurriedly retreated to both sides with the mission, and after a while, they saw a rider coming with two battle flags on their backs, and the road was unimpeded, even if they entered the palace gate, they never dismounted.

"Brother Dingguo, this is ......" Gu Tan looked at Zhao Guang suspiciously, and saw in his eyes, whether it was a civil official or a military general, even Huang Quan, who was the third duke, quickly retreated to both sides after hearing the horn, this battle, I didn't know that I thought it was the Son of Heaven's honor guard, who would have thought that it was just a small soldier.

"My Han stipulates that at any time, the front-line intelligence Ruolai, regardless of the size of the official position, from the prime minister to the three princes and the people of Limin, must give way!" Looking at the knight in the distance, Zhao Guang smiled.

"There's a war?" Gu Tan and Zhuge Ke were shocked, and then they were a little puzzled, they came all the way from Jingzhou, and they didn't hear about any recent wars.

"Well, at the beginning of the year, the Dawan and Wusun alliances gathered 80,000 troops with the intention of attacking the Western Regions, and Sikong led the army to resist, so it should be a war report." Zhao Guang saw that there were no other sentry agents in the rear, and smiled.

Dawan? Wusun?

Gu Tan and Zhuge Ke looked at Zhao Guang, these two places are not close to Dahan, they must be tens of thousands of miles away from Chang'an, right?

"According to calculations, Dawan's Guishan City is about 6,700 miles away from here." A look of excitement flashed in Zhao Guang's eyes and said, "Let's go, the frontline battle has arrived." ”

Gu Tan and Zhuge Ke followed Zhao Guang and a group of Fanbang envoys into the Hajj to meet the Son of Heaven with doubts.

For the magnificent palace, the two of them have been numb at the moment, from the beginning of entering Chang'an, to now, the two of them have lost count of how many times they have been shocked in their hearts, until now, no matter how magnificent and exquisite this palace is, the two of them do not have much feeling.

Liu Chan has not yet entered the court, the previous knights have been waiting in the center of the hall, the Han civil and military forces are in order to do four columns, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong are on both sides, followed by Liu Ba and Huang Quan, and then Wei Yan, Pang De, Ma Dai and other generals, the generals of the Han Dynasty are now in the Quartet, even Wei Yan has only recently been transferred back from the Hetao, but also to train young generals.

After the ministers arrived, Liu Chan came to the top of the main hall accompanied by Huang Hao of the small yellow gate, and saw the knight in the center of the main hall, Liu Chan was a little surprised: "There is a battle report today?" But the battle between Sikong and Dawan and Wusun has come to an end? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Sikong has now led the army to capture Guishan City, Wusun has also been blocked by General Wei Chang in Shicheng, after hearing that the Dawan Kingdom was destroyed, Wusun has moved the country north, and the external troubles of my Han Xizhou have been removed, and Sikong has specially ordered a humble post to come and send a book." The knight bowed.

Xizhou, that is, Liu Yi is pushing the Han power to the area of the Khotan River, and the above table suggests that the imperial court set up another state in the former Western Regions, set up a state to assassinate the history, and divide the 36 countries of the former Western Regions into several counties, among them, Dawan is also in the counties that were originally divided.

"Okay, Sikong deserves to be my big Han pillar stone!" Liu Chan stroked his palms and smiled: "Quickly present the Sikong Song Book." ”

"Whoa!" Huang Hao trotted down, took the book from the knight's hand, and ran back quickly.

"Read!" Liu Chan said with a smile: "It is also shared by the ministers and envoys of various countries." ”

"Whoa!" Huang Hao hurriedly opened the book, took a deep breath, and said loudly in his throat: "At the beginning of the ninth year of Xingyuan, Shule surrendered, the Western Regions has been nearly unified, there are two countries of Fanbang Dawan and Wusun, disobey the king, lightly start the war, and bring the people to attack, fortunately the soldiers of Xizhou used their lives, in mid-March in Shule broke Dawan, which lasted two months, the Han Heavenly Army invaded the Dawan royal city of Guishan City, captured the Dawan royal family, and has now sent people back to Chang'an, in addition to Dawan has more than 300,000 mouths, a separate county can be set up, the folk customs here are very different from my Han Dynasty, and the language is not compatible, If you want to completely naturalize it, you should follow the example of the first emperor's book and the same track, if you can completely turn this place into my Han land, then this place can be an important town for exchanges between our Han Dynasty and the countries of the Western Regions, and I ask Your Majesty to arrange this matter as soon as possible. ”

Today's Western Regions is not the Western Regions of the past, the countries of the Western Regions in the past have now become Western Prefectures, and the current Western Regions should be the place west of Dawan in order to be called the Western Regions.

300,000 people!?

Many people were a little surprised when they heard this, in most people's cognition, the population of those countries in the Western Regions can be full of 10,000, it is not bad, and now a country with a population of 300,000 suddenly appears, it is indeed surprising, even if it is placed in the Central Plains, so many people are considered medium counties, no wonder Liu Yi wanted to set up a separate county in Dawan when he divided Xizhou.

"Good!" Liu Chan said with a smile when he heard this: "Sikong uses soldiers like gods, quasi-playing, and the wealth of Dawan is ruled by Sikong, part of the reward for meritorious soldiers, and the other part is controlled by Sikong. ”

"Your Majesty!" Li Yan frowned and said, "Is this too hasty?" At least it should be counted, Sikong has a noble character, but it is inevitable that there are greedy people under his command? ”

"Your Majesty, what the doctor said is not unreasonable." Huang Hao reminded in a low voice.

"That's right, that's right, you will send someone to Dawan as soon as possible to count the belongings, and ......" Liu Chan turned his head and looked at Zhuge Liang and said: "This Dawan Taishou candidate will be arranged by Zuo Xiang and go on the road together." ”

"Minister, obey!" Zhuge Liang and Li Yan went out of the train, and after bowing down to receive the order, they each returned to the train.

Zhuge Ke squinted his eyes when he heard this, looked at Li Yan, and then looked at Huang Hao.

"Your Majesty!" Taichang came out of the ranks, bowed down and said: "The envoy of Dongwu has arrived." ”

"Oh?" Liu Chan nodded and said, "I heard that King Wu discovered an island overseas?" Quite extensive? ”

"Back to Your Majesty." Zhuge Ke and Gu Tan stood up, bowed down and said: "That's right, this island is quite extensive, comparable to Wu County, there are already people on the island, it is said that before the pre-Qin Dynasty successively crossed the sea and drifted here, King Wu named this place Yizhou, hoping that His Majesty can put this island under the rule of Jiangdong." ”

Liu Chan thought for a while, nodded and said: "Since the people of the island have the same score as my Han Dynasty, and this island is the closest to Jiangdong, it belongs to Jiangdong, but the household registration and cultivated fields need to be compiled into a book as soon as possible and handed over to the imperial court." ”

"Your Majesty." Gu Tan smiled bitterly: "The country of Wu has been poor all these years, and the king of Wu intends to send my Han Enzebu and Yizhou, but he is powerless, and the ministers have come to worship the Son of Heaven this time, hoping that His Majesty can allocate some money and grain for the construction of Yizhou." ”

Liu Chan frowned when he heard this, the matter of determining the name, that Yizhou was originally discovered by Sun Quan, and it was not at hand, as soon as he touched his mouth, there was one more county on the map of Dahan, he was naturally willing, but now he wants money and food, and this has to be considered.

After all, Liu Yi has just conquered the Western Regions, and now the power of the Han Dynasty is concentrated on building the Western Regions, especially in terms of coins, which is basically impossible, not to mention Wu Guo, Liu Chan has not seen much money in these years.

"Your Majesty, this is a big matter, and you can't make a rash decision." Pang Tong frowned and bowed to Liu Chan.

"Yes, Dahan is also working everywhere now, and it needs to be discussed." Liu Chan nodded and looked at the two of them: "And stay in Chang'an for a while, and I will reply after I discuss with Zhuqing." ”

Gu Tan and Zhuge Ke had long known that this matter was not easy, so they could only nod their heads and thank them at the moment and return to the train.
