Chapter 891: The Rice Barn is Lost
Meeting with a group of envoys, the prince of Yan always has a warm and friendly smile on his face, which makes people feel more cordial, and when facing the times of envoys from various countries, he is behaving with a degree of momentum, words and deeds before showing the bearing of a great country, both polite and polite, and faintly has a pride in the country, during which he can handle and release freely, so that the people present are bright, and the eldest prince is truly mature in the past two years!
Welcoming the party into Beiping and properly settled, Liu Huan held a banquet in the Yanwang Mansion in the evening to entertain the envoys of various countries, and was particularly courteous to the representative of the Kushan Empire, the third prince of the Natfiliemo, and in the eyes of those envoys who came to Beiping for the first time, they felt dizzy when they just entered Beiping City, and the wide streets, the magnificent city walls, the majestic buildings scattered and the endless flow of people made them secretly praise the richness of the Han Dynasty in their hearts! Passing by Luoyang, Chang'an, along the way, the scene has already amazed them, and now this Han Dynasty capital makes them feel like they are in a dream!
The construction of Beiping from the beginning is Liu Yi personally responsible, and after several years of development, its city scale and population have reached an unprecedented level, now the entire Yandi has a population of nearly 11 million, and the Han capital Beiping has 170,000 households, more than 760,000 people, the city occupies a circle of dozens of miles, the people's livelihood is rich and the business is prosperous, and there are many people from all over the world to come here, it can be described as a veritable first metropolis and not only within the scope of the Han Dynasty, take these envoys who come now, the population of a city in Beiping will exceed the strength of most of the country, and the wealth and strength of the Han Dynasty have been concentrated here!
Liu Yi's mentality of the Heavenly Empire in his heart is not only not weaker than today's people, but even stronger, his construction of Beiping is based on Chang'an, the capital city of the Tang Dynasty, and the capital of the Han Dynasty should naturally be the world's largest metropolis! Of course, with what he has seen and heard in later generations, Liu Yi will not be like those emperors in another time and space, any small country can get a hundred times a thousand times a return gift from the Han Dynasty, and the great country is not like this, good food, good accommodation, fun and good hospitality can be done, but the envoys must also show enough sincerity.
When the Xiongnu came to Beiping alone, the Xiongnu only sent Liu Yi a thousand horses, and the Han Dynasty was countless horses, cattle and sheep, Wuhuan Hu Yanshuo and others never rude, that is, the Xianbei people came here to test the truth and the truth is also really carefully prepared, here the king of Yan will not talk about any gentlemanly demeanor, that is, the eyes of the reciprocated, the Han will not beg you to come, if you want to get married, you have to be polite, so the envoys of the Western Regions countries do not dare to slack off here, Even such a powerful force as the Xiongnu was subdued by King Yan, let alone them?
As a prince of the Kushan Empire, and having seen the exquisite gifts presented by the mission, Nathrefrith naturally also had an extraordinary skill, in addition to many exquisite gold, silver, and jade sculptures, there were also a hundred carefully selected beauties, all of which were of course perfect. In Liu Yi's impression, India is a place where beautiful women come out, or to add a premise, girls before marriage, many Indian women do not pay attention to their own figure after marriage, it seems that they still maintain the aesthetics of fat as beauty in the Tang Dynasty of China, and it will not be much worse at this time!
India and China are known as the world's four major ancient civilizations, but also have a glorious history and a long heritage, at this time the population of the entire region is a few points more than the Han Dynasty, and the Kushan Empire is the Great Moon Clan invaded the north of India to establish a powerful empire, at that time the strength of the time is unparalleled, the Greeks established the Great Xia is for its destruction, and Central Asia has a hegemonic status, most of these beauties are from its plunder, this time to Liu Yi is also a flower offering Buddha!
Prince Fredema didn't think of two things, one was that the hundred beauties he thought were the most important gifts made King Yan of the Han Dynasty quite a headache, and later generations Langsheng occasionally read books on the Internet and disliked the stallion harem, and often abandoned them when he saw such a label. But in this life, he really has his own harem, there are as many as ten side concubines, plus concubines and maids, although there are still hundreds of three thousand beauties, and now there are hundreds of people, if Liu Yi really works hard, even with his physique, one day he will die, and he has no intention of doing this at this time!
In the eyes of King Yan, whether it is gold and silver utensils, exquisite handicrafts, even those beautiful women with vivid colors, they are not as good as the cottonseeds in Huang Shenzang and the jade box, this is the biggest harvest of the Western Regions Mission's trip, Prince Frelimo may no longer think that the worthless things in his eyes are priceless treasures for Liu Yi, and Wang Fu, Huang Shen and others cover it up skillfully enough.
I heard that the king of Yan of the Great Han Dynasty was crusading against the rebellion in Yecheng for the time being, and there were many envoys who had just come to the Han Dynasty and unanimously put forward their wishes to visit, among which Prince Philema was the head, and the king of the Kushan Empire told him to see the great hero in the mouth of all the envoys before this trip, which was also one of the most important purposes of his visit! In the face of the requirements of a group of envoys, at this time the prince Liu Huan did not dare to make a good claim, every time there was a big war, his father would be extremely focused on the war, even Cai Yan would not disturb it at this time, but everyone was indeed sincere, and at the moment they could only write a book and send it to Yecheng overnight to wait for King Yan to decide!
Today's Beiping can be described as unprecedented, but Liu Yi who is on the front line is by no means easy, after he got the report of the Western Regions Mission, he handed it over to his eldest son to deal with, compared with the current battle with Cao Cao obviously has a heavier weight, although the battle of Qingzhou did not achieve the goal he expected, but it can be called quite a gain, Cao Jun suffered a lot in this battle, and the huge casualties will definitely affect the next battle of Yanzhou, Although the Yan army also suffered heavy losses, its absolute superiority in strength could ensure that they would not be affected too much. The battle situation that worried Liu Yi was not Qingzhou, the battle of Hanzhong had begun to develop towards an extremely unfavorable situation for the Yan army under the concerted efforts of Cao Cao and a group of subordinates, just one day before the Western Regions mission arrived in Beiping, the key place in Hanzhong, Micang Mountain, had been captured by Cao Hong, the general of the Cao army, and it was less than ten days before and after!
The battle of Hanzhong, the Cao army has a huge advantage in the local strength, for Zhang Hu in the struggle to support at the same time, but also to take into account the coordination between the two armies at any time, the reason why he led the army to meet Cao Cao's army instead of sitting in the Hanzhong backbone city in addition to wanting to give full play to the advantages of Ma Chao Sizhou battalion cavalry is also the biggest concern is also the cooperation between the two armies, the war is not under the Hanzhong city, Zhang Gongqi can still be calm, but once it endangers his fundamentals, many situations may occur under the critical situation, Zhang Hu's countermeasure in his heart was to drag the main force of Cao's army in person, and when Zhang Wenyuan's Yanyun army arrived, he would sit in Hanzhong with his good defense, and he would lead the army to respond from the side, and he would face the strong enemy Cao Cao and he would have enough confidence to hold this place!
But Cao Cao who can think of it will not ignore, although he still doesn't know how the specific movement of the Yan army is, but he will not have the slightest slack about Liu Yi and Zhang Hu's ability to use troops, it is inevitable that reinforcements will come, although there are more than 100,000 in front of the Yan army and the Hanzhong army, but the military orders are not the same, and the unfamiliar is that he has to firmly grasp the place to use, in the face of Zhang Hu's attack, Cao Mengde went all out to deal with it, although this Zhang Zicai has the ability to use soldiers, but when the army is at a great disadvantage, he will definitely not get any benefit from himself, He wants to take advantage of this advantage so that he can be under the huge pressure of the Cao army at any time and is powerless to take care of it, so that Xiahou and Cao Hong can better concentrate on dealing with the Hanzhong army, as long as the two dangers of Micang Mountain and Dingjun Mountain can be brought down in time, Zhang Hu will have to retreat to Hanzhong no matter how clever he is, and there will be more places that can be used by him at that time!
Treating the key attack differently, the soldier Gui quickly and fully attacking is Cao Cao's strategy for the battle of Hanzhong, he knows the Yan army well, Zhang Hu has the Sizhou battalion iron cavalry in his hand, and it is extremely difficult for him to break it, but it is much easier to entangle with it. In the face of Cao Jun, there is a big gap in the actual combat experience of the soldiers and generals, and the elite soldiers of Cao Hongjiang are divided into ten teams to attack Micang Mountain day and night without stopping, and even ordered people to make a rumor that the Yan army led by Zhang Hu has been broken by the Cao army, so that the garrison of the Han Chinese Army is even more panicked when it is tired of coping, and finally succeeded in taking Micang Mountain after ten days and ten nights, and once it is lost, the right wing of the main force of the Yan army led by Zhang Hu is completely exposed in front of Cao Jun's eyes!
