The snow is full of Chang'an, although the weather is cold, but it is difficult to stop people from celebrating the great victory, with the war between the Great Qin and the Xiongnu, Li Ang killed 200,000 captives and no one dared to say anything gossip, after all, who at this juncture blamed the soldiers who brought great victories to the country, then wait to be spurned by the people of the world! With the emperor's iron fist at the beginning of the year, a large number of scholars who can write but not martial arts are assigned to fill the army, and the entire Daqin seems to have returned to more than 30 years ago.

"Wu Anjun is worthy of being my Great Qin Killing God, killing 200,000 Huns, it's really happy!" In the wine shop in Chang'an, the men called friends and friends, while drinking, while talking about the war with the Huns, when it came to the pleasant place, the wine was surging, all of them were red ears and thick necks, as if they had experienced the battlefield in person. Almost all the men in Chang'an are drinking to celebrate, and the women who are doing housework at home don't understand the minds of men, they just feel that their husbands are like crazy, and if they have nothing to do, they just talk about pit killings and beheadings, which makes people's hearts furious when they hear it.

In the imperial city of Weiyang Palace, Cao Anmin, who received Li Angjie's report, feasted the ministers to celebrate his first victory in foreign warfare since he ascended the throne, killing 200,000 prisoners and annihilating nearly one-third of the troops on the northern front of the Xiongnu. "Today, the whole country celebrates." Cao Anmin stood up from his seat. Hong Sheng, seeing the emperor stand up, the ministers of the hall all stood up in unison, and raised their wine glasses like the emperor. "This first cup I led the ministers to pay tribute to those dead Great Qin soldiers." Cao Anmin's face became solemn, he looked at the door of the main hall of Weiyang Palace, and the wine glass in his hand was slanted. fell to the ground in front of him, and the ministers of the full hall did the same, and gave the first cup of wine to the dead Great Qin soldiers.

Cao Anmin poured the cup full of wine again, and said, "This second cup, I want to respect Wu Anjun to boost the prestige of my Great Qin army, and kill 200,000 prisoners well." After speaking, he tilted his neck. The cup was full, and the ministers also drank the wine in the cup, not to mention the emperor's kindness to Li Ang, but with Li Ang's battlefield merits, they really deserved this cup.

"This third cup, I want to respect you, if it weren't for you and me working together, my Great Qin would not be able to win this big victory." Cao Anmin toasted the ministers in the palace with the last cup, but it was unexpected, and when they came back to their senses. The emperor had already drunk the wine in his cup, and with a burst of thanksgiving, the ministers sat down in the banquet.

The planning is staggered, the atmosphere in the Weiyang Palace is hot, and the ministers in the palace watch the singing and dancing, and applaud from time to time. Some familiar families did it together, discussing this great victory, they knew that this great victory did not shake the foundation of the Huns, and in the distant Haixi, the Romans were already sharpening their knives, relying only on the fleet of Daqin It was difficult to stop the Romans, and only by letting Li Ang go to Haixi as soon as possible could the Romans be contained at the lowest cost. Now almost all the families admit that Li Ang's military talent is second to none in the current Great Qin, especially his iron-blooded style, which is even more difficult for ordinary people to reach, looking at the world. It's hard to find a character like him.

At the end of the song, the people were scattered, in the Weiyang Palace, the people had gone seventy-seven, eighty-eight, and the rest were the heads of the major families, who ruled the entire Great Qin together with the emperor, and now it is obvious that the emperor left them, and there are definitely important things to discuss with them. The chamberlains and ladies retreated quickly, and the black cavalry battalion took over.

"Constantine, the new emperor of Rome, issued the Edict of Milan four months ago, making Christianity the state religion." Cao Anmin looked at the heads of the major families in the hall, and asked the guards to send the information file sent by the Jinyi Guard to everyone, although it was only the information from four months ago, but the meaning expressed above was already very clear, Constantine was eloquent, by no means mediocre, and he would definitely be a big trouble for Daqin in the future.

Looking at the dossier in their hands, the heads of the major families frowned, judging from the information, the most intuitive feeling they had for Constantine in their hearts was that it was terrible, this young man who was only twenty-seven was deep in the city, and the matter of seizing the throne was not only ruthless, but also leaky. "Your Majesty, the new emperor of Rome has the quality of a hero, and he should order Wu Anjun to move westward quickly, otherwise this person will straighten out political affairs, and I will worry about the hegemony of Great Qin!" Among the heads of the major families, some people said in a deep voice, and the people next to them were also solemn, nodding their heads one after another, for these great families, the hegemony of Daqin is not just as simple as face, but also where their interests lie, Daqin monopolizes the entire world trade, and nearly seventy percent of the profits are taken by the royal family and them, if once the Romans overthrow the hegemony of Daqin, and cause other countries to follow suit, they will no longer be like

Take more benefits, no one wants to see such things.

"Wu Anjun wrote to me, at present, he has recruited nearly 500,000 troops on his own, which should be enough to fight with the Romans, the only thing missing now is money, nearly a million people are heading west, and Wu Anjun can't afford the cost along the way." Looking at the heads of the major families who were angered by the Romans, Cao Anmin said his true purpose, to ask these great families for military expenses for Leon.

The emperor's voice fell, and the heads of the major families were silent, and after a long time, the head of the Sima family spoke, "As long as Wu Anjun can go west as soon as possible, my Sima family is willing to share the burden for the country and take out 100 million gold baht." As soon as the voice of the head of the Sima family fell, the head of the Xiahou family also opened his mouth, and he was even more ruthless than the Sima family, with an extra 50 million gold baht. Someone took the lead, and soon the heads of the major families gritted their teeth and reported the number of gold baht, and in the end, it was as high as 1.7 billion gold baht.

Since even the money can be given up, the emperor has no opinion on the prince given to Li Ang next, and the heads of the major families, anyway, the fief given to Li Ang is in Haixi, which can't destroy the balance of Chang'an, and they are happy to fulfill it, but it is just the title of 'King Wuwei'.

On the second day, the ceremonial officials in the Weiyang Palace read out the emperor's edict, and the ministers were shocked, Li Ang became the first person in Daqin to be crowned king when he was alive since the founding of the country, but no one dared to object, everyone knew that the emperor's edict of the king must have been agreed by the major families, and more importantly, Li Ang's fief was in Haixi, how long could this Wuwei king last, and it was not clear whether it was uncertain, after all, the Romans had been in obscurity for 30 years, and the national strength was not comparable to that of the Huns. Even if it is as strong as Leon, it may not be able to achieve great things. In the eyes of the ministers, the great families and emperors were just letting the king of Wuwei go to Haixi to drag the Romans.

Not to mention what the ministers think, at least among the people, Li Ang's reputation is as high as the sky, the king of Great Qin Wuwei, what a majesty this is, for a while, there are more Han young people who go west to the river to defect, these young people full of enthusiasm only want to follow Li Ang, the prestige of the Han family spread all over the world, so he does not hesitate to stay away from his homeland, and is willing to follow Li Ang to a foreign country thousands of miles away.

When the edict of Chang'an arrived at the camp where Li Ang was, it was nearly two months since the beginning of spring in the following year, and when the envoy arrived, he and his entourage saw a jaw-dropping scene, the Hu soldiers in Han clothes whipped the Hu people like them, and built roads in the vast grassland, and after careful inquiry, they learned that as soon as Li Ang opened spring, he released more than 200,000 Hu soldiers and the Great Qin army who had been trained for a whole winter to sweep the border of nearly a thousand miles, and exterminated the tribal peoples who depended on the Xiongnu. All the men who dared to resist were killed, the women, cattle and sheep were given to these Hu soldiers who surrendered, and among the remaining captives, all the old and weak were killed, and only the young and strong were left to build roads.

"Only King Wuwei can shock the Huns." After the envoy of Chang'an inquired clearly, he just said this, and the entourage beside him also thought that the Great Qin generals they had seen before were also fierce, but compared with the Wuwei King who was about to meet, it was just a small thing, and it was not worth mentioning.

Half a month later, the envoy went to the camp where Li Ang was located, read out the emperor's edict, the whole camp was like thunder, and the Hu soldiers who surrendered to Li Ang were even more ecstatic, and the Lord Wu Anjun they wanted to follow was now the king of Wuwei, and they were naturally extremely honored.

—

After receiving the edict, Li Ang had a secret conversation with the envoy in his bedroom, no one knew what the two were talking about, but the envoy from Chang'an left very hurriedly, and he returned to Chang'an with Huang Yuan and Li Cunzhi, they returned to Chang'an, one is to replace Li Ang's post, and the other is to accept the gold baht of the major families, part of which is escorted to the river, and the other is taken by Huang Yuan to Jiangnan to build a warship, the cost of a giant ship like Shui Longyin is extremely terrifying, and he also has to recruit personnel on board, It can be said that there is no one for three or five years for the fleet subordinate to Leon to take shape.

In the face of Li Ang's cold-blooded crusade on the border line, the Huns jumped like thunder, but there was nothing they could do, because I don't know when they had an extra Qin iron cavalry in their territory that came and went like the wind, this cavalry was just like a demon from Huangquan, where they passed, there was not an inch of grass, and all that was left was a creepy human head Jingguan, in just two months, more than 100,000 people died in the Xiongnu territory, even if the Huns wanted to stop Li Ang from purging their vassals on the border line, they were powerless, They will have little to do until they find this terrible cavalry force.
