Gaochang, Qiuzi, Wusun, Dawan...... These are the ancient names of the Western Regions, open the annals of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and often appear, from the time of Zhang Qian, the Han people set foot in the Western Regions, for thousands of years, live and multiply here, develop and grow, just in Gaochang City, although this is the capital of the Uighurs, but the Han people still account for more than one-third.

They were responsible for farming, weaving, making pottery, opening shops, and running businesses...... Wherever they went, the Han Chinese were the most industrious and basically the wealthiest group, provided that the local rulers did not rob and kill......

However, for all Han people, a catastrophe seems to be not far away, since the two Song Dynasty, not only the names of those ancient countries have disappeared from the annals, but also millions of Han people in the Western Regions.

The cavalry of the Great Eclipse, the men and horses of the Black Khan, they are gathering rapidly, like a black cloud with ears on the horizon, constantly churning and growing, and quickly attacking to the east.

Ye Hua stood at the head of Gaochang City, looking at the horizon in the distance, he seemed to hear people shouting horses and neighing, and heard killing howls...... Ye Hua is full of confidence in victory.

There is no reason why the Great Zhou Xiongbing, who has initially achieved firearms, will fail.

But he is still nervous, because this battle is related to the first thousand years, and the efforts of the Han family will also affect the history of the next thousand years!

Neither he nor Da Zhou can afford to lose!

In history, the Black Khanate alone gathered more than 100,000 people and destroyed Khotan, and this time with the addition of the Samanid Dynasty, plus other forces, it is very likely that more than 300,000 troops will be added.

This is a suffocating number, since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, only Li Hongji has gathered 300,000 horses to fight a decisive battle with the Great Zhou.

It's just that this time was completely different from this one.

It is a battle of victory and defeat with Li Hongji, but this time it is a battle of life and death!

Ye Hua pondered for a long time in the city, and then immediately ordered that all taxes should be reduced in Gaochang, and that the Uighurs would collect more than seventy percent of the heavy taxes, but Ye Hua first lowered them to less than fifty percent, and said that he would choose the opportunity to continue to reduce them.

In addition, Ye Hua issued an order to allow all sects to spread in Gaochang, as long as they force others, do not interfere in government affairs, and do not gather people to collect money, they will be respected and protected.

In response to the many poor people, Ye Hua declared that the cultivator had his land.

He slaughtered the Uighur dignitaries and distributed their pastures, cattle and sheep directly to the people.

In addition, some Uighur female soldiers who had surrendered earlier were brought in, and they were asked to go deep into the tribes to explain the strategies of the Great Zhou and win the hearts and minds of the people.

Moreover, Ye Hua also invited some tribal elders, leading figures, and wealthy merchants from Gaochang to the mansion and talked with them...... Ye Hua promised that in the future, Gaochang would respect all the tribes, and after the implementation of Juntian, each tribe would have officials, and they would be distributed proportionally.

The imperial court sent 30 percent, the local Han 30, the Uighurs and other tribes 40 percent, and the outstanding Uighur officials were transferred to the interior or even into the center as officials.

In addition to these, Ye Hua also signed a five-year purchase contract with them on the spot, totaling three million taels of silver...... Of course, the money was all from his daughter-in-law, and Ye Hua told these people that the imperial court would send a group of excellent doctors and teachers to the Western Regions to help them......

Thunderbolt means, bodhisattva heart.

In general, the people of Xizhou did not fully accept the Great Zhou, but they were not so repulsive.

Ye Hua asked his soldiers to buy and sell fairly, whether it was grain or livestock, or requisitioned personnel, they must clearly mark the price and not take advantage of it.

After the implementation of this set of measures, the market in Gaochang was stable, the supply of soldiers and horses in the Great Zhou Dynasty was sufficient, and tens of thousands of people were also obtained...... For the next big war, a solid foundation was laid and a stable rear was established.

In contrast, Ye Hua was more concerned about the hundreds of thousands of Uighur elites, and if he could get his hands on them, it would undoubtedly be a great help.

In addition to sending more than 1,000 family members to persuade, Ye Hua also asked Ye Zhong to take 3,000 people to protect his family, and let Yang Ye lead 20,000 people to press the formation behind.

……

"Dear General Atai, Da Zhou is with full sincerity, I hope you can recognize the situation...... As long as you surrender, the court will never treat you badly, and any request can be discussed! ”

As the Uighur commander, Atay was unmoved.

"You despicable Han people, killed our Khan, took our capital, and came to pretend to persuade you to surrender, if you believe your nonsense, we people will die without a place to bury!"

Ye Zhong endured the foaming stars in his face, and he said in a deep voice: "General Atai, you should know that this dispute was caused by your invasion of Khotan, which is a loyal vassal of the Great Zhou, and it is impossible for the Great Zhou to sit idly by. Your country was instigated by the Black Khanate to act as their pawn, and this is the root of the whole thing! ”

"I don't care!"

Atai shook his fist viciously, like a mad-haired bison.

"Let me ask you, why did you go to the Western Regions? This is not your territory! It is you who have ruined the peace of the Western Regions! We Uighurs will never die with you! ”

"Nonsense!"

Although Ye Zhong was ordered to try his best to appease and persuade him to surrender, he couldn't bear it if this guy didn't get in with oil and salt.

"You have to figure it out that before the Great Zhou marched into the Western Regions, it was the Black Khanate that invaded the Western Regions first, and including you, were threatened by their ears. For thousands of years, the Western Regions have been the land of the Han family, and the Great Zhou cannot be excluded from the Western Regions because of the absence of more than 100 years! That's impossible! ”

Ah Tai sneered three times, "You Han people are so skillful, I can't talk about you, but I want to tell you, I will never be a lackey for you!" ”

Ye Zhong said with a calm face: "Then there will only be a battle!" ”

"That's right!" Atai was extraordinarily resolute.

Ye Zhong had no choice but to sneer: "Since you are obsessed, you can only see you on the battlefield!" ”

As he spoke, he turned to leave, but at this moment, a group of Uighur soldiers rushed out and surrounded Ye Zhong, all of them showed their weapons, like a group of fierce gods.

Atay laughed maniacally, "You still want to run?" Come, take him down, I'm going to give his head to our allies! ”

"Allies?"

Ye Zhong's heart chuckled, and he shouted badly, "Atai, are you talking about allies?" Or is it a new master? I advise you to think clearly, be a slave to the Black Khanate, you will always be a minion! And turn your back on your ancestors and your conscience! Whether it's black sweat or big food, you don't have Da Zhou's mind, you follow them, be careful of being bitten back! It doesn't matter if you die or not, the point is that these hundreds of thousands of people will die from your stupidity! ”

"Shut up, shut up!"

Ah Tai roared angrily, he personally drew his saber and walked towards Ye Zhong step by step.

"Little bunny, I don't need you to teach me a lesson! Today is your day of death! ”

As he spoke, he raised his knife and slashed down viciously.

In an instant, two people jumped out from the side, and the weapons in their hands stabbed into Atai's soft underbelly, blood splattered instantly, and Atai let out a painful roar, he barely turned sideways, and when he saw this person's face clearly, he was suddenly shocked.

"You, how dare you betray me?"

The person on the other side smiled calmly, "Brother Atai, you betrayed the Uighurs first, and you are the one to die!" The man turned the handle of the knife violently, the wound turned into a bloody hole, and the internal organs were ripped out, and Atai screamed in pain, and fell straight to the ground, his eyes wide open, and he could not blink to death!

The two people who killed Ah Tai almost simultaneously clicked on one knee and knelt in front of Ye Zhong.

"My name is Agu, and I am ...... It's the younger brother of this man. He pointed to Atai on the ground, and then said to the young man: "His name is Murong Yan, and we are willing to submit to Da Zhou!" ”

Ye Zhong didn't expect such a dramatic scene to happen.

He asked the two of them to stand up and speak, Murong Yan looked very anxious, he was the young man who took the lead in dealing with the Great Food Cavalry.

They chased a section out, and when they met the surviving Qiuzi people, they all burst into tears, and the city of Qiuzi had been slaughtered and burned by fire.

The Uighur soldiers were so indignant that they immediately sought revenge on the Great Cannibals.

And at this moment, Agu led his men and horses to chase after him, and he was ordered by his brother to stop Murong Yan, and if he was disobedient, he would kill them!

"General Agu, you are someone we respect! Ask the poor turtles, what do the robbers do with the big food? They killed all of our men, men, women, and children! They burned down the temples, they burned down the ancestral halls, they burned down our cities! This is what your brother calls an ally? No, they are a group of robbers, a group of bandits that are ten thousand times more terrible than the Great Zhou! ”

Murong Yan violently tore open his clothes, revealing his strong chest.

"General Agu, you can kill me now! None of us will resist, because we shouldn't kill each other! Please do the same in the future, don't become a big cannibal lackey and slaughter your own brothers! ”

Murong Yan closed his eyes, and after a while, he heard a loud bang, and when he looked up again, Agu threw the knife in his hand on the ground.

"Let's go, let's do something really useful!"

……

"The two generals are high-minded, admirable, big beasts, dare to slaughter turtles, you can't let them leave alive!" Ye Zhong said: "I have 3,000 elite horsemen in my hands, you immediately select 20,000 warriors who can fight, and we will join forces to leave the Great Bird Eater Beast here!" ”

Murong Yan and Agu looked at each other, and immediately said happily: "You also have firearms in your hands?" ”

"That's nature!" Ye Zhong said firmly.

The two of them were immediately overjoyed, in Khotan, they had already learned firearms, as long as there were firearms, victory would definitely belong to them!

The two of them immediately released more Uighur soldiers back to Gaochang, and personally selected 20,000 elites to join Ye Zhong.

They took out Gaochang's wine, poured a bowl of wine each, and held it high, "Let's fight side by side!" ”

"Yes, revenge together!"

Ye Zhong drank the wine in the bowl in a big gulp, his face turned red, and at this time, someone came to report that a team of cavalry had killed him......
