The city of Weili fell, and Fu De ordered the Han army to slaughter the city, and did not seal the knife for three days.

The news of the Han army's slaughter of the city again, with the news of the defeat of the Qiuci army, spread to the country of Qiuci, and the whole country was shocked.

It's just that the extreme traitors in the Qiuci country are not allowed, or unwilling to do so, but the reason is because the Qiuci country has always had an extreme traitorous force, since the pre-Han Dynasty, it has been constantly planning to establish itself in Qiuci, cancel the Western Regions Protectorate and the long history of the Western Regions, every time the Western Regions are in turmoil, in fact, you will see the figure of these rebel and self-reliant forces.

As for those subjects who want to surrender to the Great Han, they are all anti-Han people in the past who have been suppressed, and their ancestors are all beneficiaries of the establishment of the Western Regions Protectorate in the territory of the Great Han in the territory of the Qiuci Kingdom.

After all, as the capital of the Western Regions, Qiuci Kingdom will naturally become the main prosperous place of the Silk Road on the road back then, and these beneficiary families who have developed due to the trade of the Han Dynasty naturally hope that the Qiuci Kingdom will re-establish diplomatic relations with the Han Dynasty, reopen the Silk Road, or even merge the Qiuci Kingdom into the Han Dynasty, they don't care.

After all, due to the opening of the Silk Road, their family has already become a pure merchant in hundreds of years, and the essence of a merchant is that there is no concept of a country, as long as there are interests to be made and do not hurt their lives, it is okay to sell the country of Qiuci and become a Han themselves.

However, with the loss of contact with the Western Regions over the years, these beneficiaries of the Silk Road were inevitably damaged by the traitors, and even ruined by the family.

However, the fact is that the insistence of the anti-Han people in the Qiuci Kingdom also forced them to do so, because those people understood that the current offensive of the Han State, even if they surrendered, those of them who had disturbed the Western Regions and betrayed the Han State in the past felt that they could not escape the killing of the Han army.

Therefore, instead of this, they should resist to the death, and they may not have a chance to drive away the Han State, they believe that other Western Regions powers like Shule and Wusun will definitely not sit idly by and watch them be wiped out by the Han State one by one, after all, everyone understands the truth of cold lips and teeth, and no one will be willing to let others slaughter them.

It's just that if they have to wait for the rescue of other Western Regions countries, they obviously have to successfully drag the Han army for a while, otherwise, where will the Western Regions countries, which have just jointly sent troops but were defeated by the Han army, have enough time to integrate their forces?

When Fu De led his troops into the territory of Qiuci Kingdom, he was surprised to find that in addition to the soldiers stationed in the city, other places in Qiuci Country can be said to be uninhabited for hundreds of miles, and even in the past, there were no people on the trade routes of the Western Regions to protect the Silk Road, which was very strange.

After all, even if the Silk Road is blocked, coupled with the fact that the 5,000 cavalry of the Han army in the previous period disturbed the rear of Qiuzi, it is impossible to let these precious roads left by the previous generations be wasted.

After all, these ancient roads have greatly saved the traffic problems of the people of Qiuzi, even if it is not safe outside, but it is impossible not to even see a figure, after all, at least someone is herding cattle and horses, but now there are no people, which is very revealing.

Obviously, the recalcitrant Qiuzi State must have carried out a strong wall and cleared the Han army, and wanted to force the Han army to retreat through logistical pressure. Later, after Fude and the 5,000 horsemen who were responsible for disturbing the rear of the Guizi Kingdom met up, the news he received from them also confirmed his suspicions.

In order to deal with the Han army, the Qiuzi Kingdom ordered all the subjects outside to enter the nearby city, leaving no food and water outside the city, as if the Han army was trapped in the cliff outside the territory.

In this regard, of course, Fude knows why the people of Qiuci Country are like this, not because they have repeatedly rebelled against the Han, and even the power of the Han Dynasty has been squeezed out of the Western Regions, which has a lot to do with Qiuci Kingdom.

Don't look at the soldiers and horses of the Qiuci country, the residents are not martial, they are good at music and dance, the famous Qiuzi music and dance originated here, it is difficult to see that they have the strength to squeeze the Han out of the Western Regions, but this is the case, if the Han Dynasty is not the Western Regions Protectorate is located in the Qiuci country repeatedly rebelled, how can the Western Regions succeed in chaos every time?

The reason for this is that the strength of the army of the Qiuzi country is not high, but the armor is excellent, and it has been the land of iron production in the Western Regions since ancient times, and the country with famous craftsmen and technology.

In addition to being the hinterland of the Western Regions, there is also the reason why the craftsmen in the place are excellent, after all, some craftsmen were recruited to produce weapons for the Western Regions Protectorate, so self-produced and sold, it is better than the Han Dynasty traveling thousands of miles from Liangzhou to transport weapons, isn't it?

Of course, this is also inevitable, which led to the fact that Qiuzi Guo learned some advanced weapons and techniques of the Han army, which invisibly increased their strength and gave them the capital to fight against the Han Dynasty, which could completely wipe out the Western Regions Protectorate, which had allowed the Han to rule the Western Regions for a long time.

As for the Western Regions Protectorate, it is the jurisdiction set up in the Western Regions in the former Han Dynasty, and it is the highest official position in the Western Regions since the former Han Dynasty, and the "Metropolitan Protector" is the highest local governor in the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty, with a "rank ratio of 2,000 stones", which is equivalent to the "County Captain" in the interior, and the "County Captain" is the deputy position of the head of a county, in charge of the military, and the Western Regions is set up as a "Metropolitan Protector" because of its special status, which is actually equal to a county in the Han Dynasty.

The main responsibilities of the Metropolitan Protection of the Western Regions are to defend the territory and secure the land, coordinate the contradictions and disputes between the countries in the Western Regions, stop the intrusion of foreign forces, maintain the local social order in the Western Regions, and ensure the smooth flow of the Silk Road. The "Duhu" is in charge of more than 30 countries east of Dawan and south of Wusun, and each country "has a Han seal and ribbon for its own translators, domain chiefs, monarchs, eunuchs, officials, Dalu, Baichang, Qianchang, Duwei, and Qu, Danghu, generals, and Xiangzhi Houwang, all wearing Han seals".

That is, in the sense of rule, since the Han Dynasty, the Western Regions has been a part of the Han family, and many people in later generations who do not know their minds say that the Western Regions are not the land of the Han family, which can be described as vicious.

This is also the reason why Fuquan ordered Fude to conquer the Western Regions, and the Han Emperor and even the ministers did not oppose it, after all, from the dynastic aspect, the expedition to the Western Regions is to recover the country, and those who oppose it are actually undoubtedly with the national thieves in a sense, and naturally no one dares to oppose it.

Of course, there is no position of protector of the Western Regions, only the post of the chief historian of the Western Regions, and the reason is long.

In the former Han Dynasty, the capital protection was added to other official titles, and most of them were led by the cavalry captain, with a rank of 2,000 stones, and they all protected the Wulei City, which was similar to the canal plough field official, and the Tuntian Commander belonged to the capital protection, and the capital protected the opening of the mansion. The capital protector was in charge of Dawan and the eastern city of Guo Zhuguo and the inspector of Wusun, Kangju and other countries, and issued court orders; When the kingdoms are in turmoil, they must send troops to requisition.

By the end of the new dynasty, the Western Regions were in turmoil, and Li Chong was not protected in Qiuzi, so he was dismissed. Emperor Guangwu of this dynasty established the military for twenty-one years, and the eighteen countries of the Western Regions asked for the restoration of the capital, but Emperor Guangwu did not allow it.

Later, in the seventeenth year of Emperor Yongping of the Han Ming Dynasty, Chen Mu was the protector of the capital, but the following year, Yanqi and Guizi rebelled, attacked and killed Chen Mu, and then dismissed the capital.

In the third year of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Yongyuan, a generation of famous ministers Ban Chao was born, and Shi Banchao, who was the commander of the army, pacified the Western Regions, and then took Ban Chao as the capital protector, but the station of the Western Regions Protectorate became the Qiancheng of Qiuzi State.

However, this also failed to ensure the permanent protection of the Western Regions, in the first year of Emperor Yong of the Han Dynasty, the Western Regions were chaotic again, the Jubilee was returned, and the Han Dynasty did not reinstate the capital protection. In the second year of Yanguang, Ban Yong, the son of Ban Chao, was the chief of the Western Regions and the Western Regions was restored.

So far, with the isolation of the Western Regions, the Great Han Kingdom has never placed the post of long history again, and naturally, there is no Western Regions in the Western Regions to protect it.

Among them, the Qiuzi country, where the Western Regions Protectorate is located, has made great contributions, and every time there is chaos in the Western Regions, its country will inevitably participate in it, which is also the reason why the Western Regions Protector often cannot be put down in the first place, and may even be destroyed by foreign enemies, after all, the internal chaos is in chaos, and where does the strength come from to quell the chaos? The only way to rely on the Central Plains to send troops to quell the chaos is to quell the chaos.

Therefore, this is also the reason why the whole country of Qiuzi did not dare to surrender in the face of the fear of Fude's slaughtering army, because their sin was too great, that is, the Han army promised not to kill them, and they did not dare to surrender.

In November, the Han army pulled out the city of Wulei, and the siege of the city was unexpectedly smooth, the reason is also very simple, the city of Wulei was once the benefit of the Silk Road, and it was also the place of governance when the Western Regions Protectorate was initially placed, and the people in the city who wanted to return to the Han army, there were many people, and they were the internal response to welcome the Han army into the city, which was naturally understandable.

Even if these people have the surveillance of the Qiuci defenders in the city, they also found an opportunity to secretly communicate with the Han army, after the two sides agreed, when the Han army besieged the city, the city suddenly became chaotic, and the Qiuci defenders, who were barely resisting the Han army's offensive, were immediately defeated under the combination of the Han army and the city.

Wulei was taken, and Fu De considered that the people of Qiuzi were available to the people, so he did not issue an order to slaughter the city, but only ordered Qiuzi to report it, and slaughtered all the traitors who resisted stubbornly and died as punishment.

After that, the Han army marched into Yancheng, the capital of Qiuzi State, at this time, Yancheng up and down, had already been in chaos, Wulei City was quickly breached, so that the rebels of Qiuzi State were dumbfounded, after all, the Han army broke through Wulei City, only with the food and equipment hoarded in Wulei City, the Han army that fought repeatedly, there would be no trouble with logistics shortage.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still a chance to defend the city, I am afraid that the defenders in Yancheng would have fled long ago, but after learning that Wulei City was breached because of the domestic response of Qiuzi, Yancheng immediately launched a wave of actions to eliminate the traitors.

For a time, there was a lot of rumors, and all the citizens who had close contacts with the Han people were all killed indiscriminately by the anti-Han monarchs and ministers of the Qiuzi State, and it was completely a situation that they would rather kill 3,000 by mistake than leave one behind.

When the Han army besieged Yancheng, it was only then that he knew the news, Fu De was furious, the country of Qiuzi was so stubborn and stubborn, it was simply not allowed to be Han Tianwei, and immediately ordered the Han army to build weapons, storm Yancheng, and ordered, after the city was broken, the sword would not be sealed for three days.

The Han army, which has already tasted the joy of slaughtering the city, from top to bottom, is excited, especially those who are the servants of the Western Regions to descend Hu, especially they are the most excited, the previous Wulei City was easily broken, so that they could not slaughter the city, they were already full of complaints, and now they can directly slaughter the capital of the country, where are they not happy?

The morale of the army is available, everything is logical, the Han army besieged the city for three days, and attacked day and night, and the last more than 30,000 young men in the country were barely scraped together, which was not the opponent of the Han army who had experienced a hundred battles at all, and many of them were on the battlefield for the first time, facing this kind of strong army, even if they were the defenders of the city, but how much strength they could have, they would naturally know.

In the early morning of the fourth day, the Han army attacked the city again, and the capital of Qiuzi State, Yancheng, was broken, and after the Han army entered the city, in the face of the devastated Yancheng, they did not hesitate to start the slaughter.

At the same time, the good news of Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao came, and the two countries of Mo and Xiaowan, who rebelled against the Han Dynasty with Shanshanguo, were also pacified by the Han army, and at the same time, Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao also came to the news of the slaughter of the capitals of the two countries, but because the two countries were small, it was not as shocking as Fude Tu and the three kingdoms.

Since then, Fu De led the Western Army, broke the five countries, slaughtered the five capitals, shocked the Western Regions, and the small countries such as Qiuzi and Gumo took the initiative to offer a table, learn the example of the mountain country, and are willing to surrender the country name, lead the troops to return to the Han Dynasty, and always be the Han land and Han people.

And Fude also considered that the Han army had been sending troops for a long time, and the territory was too large, and it would take time to govern, so it was good to be able to annex more land without wasting time.

This move caused the Western Regions to fall into a short period of tranquility, but this does not mean peace, the countries west of the Western Regions, except for the countries that took the initiative to surrender their land, the rest of the countries that did not want to surrender, in order to prevent the destruction of the country and the slaughter of the city, could only unite again to protect themselves, and started an arms race against the Han Dynasty.

The news of the Western Regions reached Luoyang, although Fuquan expected this, but he also had to pretend to be surprised, after all, the matter of destroying the country and slaughtering the city itself suffered from the taboo of the Han ministers, not to mention that the former Han Dynasty so far, every time the Western Regions was recovered, the Han had never done this kind of slaughter, and now Fude has done it so thoroughly, of course, it will be said by some people who are not convinced of his power.

In this regard, Fu Quan came to consider that the repeated killings, in addition to intensifying the contradictions in the court, would also have bad consequences for the Han army's attack on the Western Regions; After all, with the spread of the news of the Han army's repeated massacres of the city, the Han army will inevitably encounter stubborn resistance, and then leave Fude as the main general, and there will be no defeat, so let him get out at this time, the time is just right.

Therefore, at the court meeting, Fuquan played, Emperor Liu Chong agreed, summoned the Western General Fu De into Beijing as a guard, and at the same time, re-established the Western Regions Protectorate, on the grounds of being familiar with the affairs of the Western Regions, made Wang Sheath the Western Regions Protector, Duan Wei for the long history, and made the two of them rebuild the order of the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty.
