Following Greece, the Roman provinces of Judea, Spain, and Asia Minor launched armed forces one after another, and the Empire of Sabbath also took this opportunity to drive its troops into the territory of the Syrian provinces......

The news of the emergency for help flew into the hands of Severus in the Roman city like snowflakes, and Severus's eyes were red in a hurry, "What's going on?" What's wrong! ”

Just when Severus was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, an incident occurred in the territory of the Far East Qiuzi Kingdom that made all the people of the Holy Chinese Empire indignant.

The protagonist of the story is named Skinny Monkey.,Originally a nameless and nameless Liulang on the street.,Because of the thinness of the person, he got the name of a skinny monkey.。 When he was in exile in Yanzhou 40 years ago, he was taken care of by the Church of Our Lady at that time, and he was given a few acres of holy land, which can be regarded as the foundation of survival. Later, he joined the Imperial Army and became an excellent listener and made great contributions to the Empire.

Forty years have passed, and the thin monkey of the monkey spirit has become an old man with a big belly and gray temples, and ten years ago, in response to the call for the disarmament of the empire, he chose to return to his hometown and return to his hometown.

Out of his yearning for a prosperous life, after retiring, the thin monkey did not stay at home, but made an appointment with a few comrades-in-arms to use the pension and the reward silver earned for meritorious service in the past as the capital, and started a business in partnership.

With the help of his extraordinary intuition and connections with his comrades all over the world, the Skinny Monkey was able to do a thriving business, especially after the empire conquered Goguryeo, Baekje and Silla, and the Skinny Monkey traveled back and forth between Cheongju and Jeju, making a fortune with the help of medicinal materials, especially tiger bones and ginseng. Until the number of people going to Jeju to pan for gold increased, the business of Skinny Monkey gradually cooled.

Later, Thin Monkey heard that he could make a lot of money by going to the Western Regions to run a business, so he found a few seniors from the Qingzhou Chamber of Commerce who often traveled in the Western Regions, and asked them to count him in the next time they went to the Western Regions.

It is the principle of the Chamber of Commerce to help each other among fellow villagers, so the thin monkey came to Duyan City, the capital of Qiuzi, with his companions.

When they arrived outside the city gates, since it was already evening, the thin monkey's companions decided to rest outside the city for the night and wait until the next morning to enter the city to sell their goods. Since it was the first time for the thin monkey to come to Qiuci, he wanted to appreciate the style of Qiuci civilization in the city, so he said goodbye to his companions and entered the city first.

He followed the instructions of his former companions and paid the full amount of the entrance tax in front of the city gate according to the rules of the Qiuzi people. However, when he entered the city, he was stopped by the gatekeepers of Qiuzi, who said that there were prohibited items in the goods he had, and that his goods should be thoroughly inspected.

This time, the thin monkey brought in all the glass and porcelain, both of which were very fragile goods, and in order to prevent the Qiuzi people from destroying his goods, he insisted on not letting the Qiuzi people check it. At the same time, he gradually understands that the gatekeeper of Qiuzi checked that his goods were fake, and the real purpose was actually to ask him for a bribe.

As a veteran who grew up in the army, the most unaccustomed thing for the thin monkey is to bully people and use power for personal gain. So he knew that the other party was asking for bribes, but he just didn't pay out of his pocket.

When the people of the Turtles saw that he did not know him, they were so anxious that they went beyond the scimitar and shouted that they would take him to prison.

The thin monkey was furious, took out the customs clearance document distributed by the Imperial Border Pass from his sleeve, and shook it in front of Captain Qiuzimen, "Do you know what this is?" This is the clearance document of the Holy Chinese Empire. Do you recognize the words above? ”

Guizimen was frightened by him and shook his head blankly.

"It reads in the words of the Holy Chinese Empire: 'The army of the Holy Chinese Empire demands that the nations safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of our citizens in your country, otherwise the Holy Chinese Empire will not mind intervening in the affairs of your country and seeking justice for our citizens.'" Do you understand the meaning of this sentence? I advise you to get out of the way as soon as possible, or the Iron Fist of the Empire will not be something you rats can bear. ”

Upon hearing this, the Guizi people burst out laughing wildly, "Who do you think you are? It's just a small businessman. Your empire is thousands of miles away, how can you trouble our Qiuzi country for the sake of your little person! Besides, your empire is strong, but we are not vegetarians. If they dare to run to our turtles to make trouble, we will make them unable to eat and walk around. With a wave of his hand, Gui Zi ** waved his hand and said to his soldiers: "Come on, these Chinese dogs have hidden prohibited items, take them down for me." ”

Where did the thin monkey think that when he was in trouble in Jeju, the imperial customs clearance document that was repeatedly used had no effect in Qiuzi. In the face of the surging Qiuzi soldiers, the thin monkey from the military was not afraid, raised his head and struck the head cannon, knocking the Qiuzi soldiers to the ground, bleeding non-stop in his nose and mouth, covering his face and rolling back and forth on the ground.

When a group of Qiuzi people saw that Pao Ze was beaten down by the Chinese under their noses, they immediately became angry. More than 50 men and horses swarmed up and surrounded the thin monkey and his entourage. A fierce hand-to-hand battle was staged outside the gates of Duyan City.

Although the thin monkey is accustomed to killing and can fight well, after all, it is old, and the number of retinues is not as large as that of the Qiuzi people. After kicking several people in a row, he was finally outnumbered and pushed to the ground by the Qiuzi people.

In order to vent his resentment, Guizishi stripped him of his skinny monkey's clothes, trapped him, and escorted him to the streets in a prisoner van.

The people of the Western Regions who traveled back and forth in Duyan City all laughed when they saw the embarrassed appearance of the thin monkey, and even threw vegetable leaves, eggs, and stones at him, just to see his pitiful appearance of dodging left and right.

The thin monkey was tossed half to death by the Qiuci people, and was rescued by the Chinese companions who came to the inquiry and bribed the Qiuci officials with huge sums of money.

However, after being rescued, the skinny monkey felt that not only had his personality defiled devastatingly, but at the same time, he had also disgraced the empire and the great Virgin. The more he thought about it, the more ashamed he became, and the more he recalled, the more ashamed he became. Disturbed by the mood of grief and indignation, he finally couldn't hold back the condemnation and shame of his conscience, and finally chose to cut himself off and embarked on a dead end.

Early the next morning, his body was found in the waterways by the river.

News of the Skinny Monkey's death soon spread back to the Empire. Luan Yi was furious.

Luan Yi still vaguely remembers the appearance of the thin monkey, and in his memory, since the Battle of Guandu, as an excellent listener in the imperial army, the thin monkey has made outstanding achievements, and Luan Yi has awarded him the Medal of Honor more than once. But he didn't expect that this excellent imperial soldier did not fall on the battlefield, but fell under the insult of the Qiuzi people.

In a fit of rage, Luan Yi wrote headlines for the next issue of "Holy Light Daily" overnight - "Those who offend my Huaxia will be punished even if they are far away". While describing the insult suffered by the skinny monkey in Qiuzi, the article fiercely criticized the rude and vicious behavior of the Qiuzi people. Subsequently, he said categorically that "those who offend our Huaxia will be punished even if they are far away" is definitely not an empty slogan, but the unswerving goal of the imperial court and the imperial army. The Chinese were humiliated to death in Qiuzi, and the empire would never sit idly by. How they insulted the Chinese people, the empire subjected their king to the same insult.

As soon as the news broke, the people of the Empire gritted their teeth at the despicable deeds of the Qiuzi people, and at the same time were grateful for the Empire's efforts to seek justice for the people.

In the next few days, the Holy Chinese Empire, from the court to the common people, was deeply immersed in a wave of condemnation of Qiuzi. At the same time, the Imperial Army began to prepare for the upcoming Western Expedition in an intense and orderly manner.

In fact, as early as a year ago, Luan Yi had already begun to prepare for the war against the Elite. At present, Qiuzi's evil behavior just gave him the excuse to eliminate Qiuzi together. With the condemnation of all the people and the donation of money and materials, the preparations for the Western Expedition soon came to an end. A total of 120,000 soldiers and horses of the imperial army from all walks of life were assembled in Yangcheng, Qiang Autonomous Prefecture.

In order to cultivate a successor, and because he was inseparable from Luoyang for a while as an emperor, Luan Yi handed over the handsome seal that went to the Western Regions to his eldest son Luan Ping, and appointed Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang as his right-hand men. The veteran generals Zhao Yun and Ma Chao took the old and the young, and Guan Suo, Zhang Bao, Zhao Tong, Dian Man, and Gan Ning went out with the army.

The 120,000 troops were divided into two routes, with 40,000 people attacking the relatively weak Jingjue all the way, and the remaining 80,000 troops went straight to Qiuzi.

When King Qiuzi saw that the Eastern Empire had really sent troops to encircle and suppress him, he was terrified. Hurriedly sent envoys to negotiate with Luan Ping.

Luan Ping doesn't look at the usual elegant and handsome son, and he is also a decisive character when he puts on armor.

When he saw the envoy of Guizi, he did not talk to him, but without saying a word, he had him taken down, stripped naked, tied to his horse, and let the knight drag him around the camp.

The poor turtle envoy didn't even give his name, so he grinded his whole belly away under the drag of the galloping war horse, and his whole body was covered in flesh and blood.

The tragic torture was not over yet, and he was crucified by the imperial guards and placed outside the capital of Qiuziyan.

At this time, the envoy of the turtle had not yet lost his breath, or more precisely, thanks to the wealth of the imperial military doctor, he couldn't cut off his breath if he wanted to, unless Luan Ping gave an order.

The scorching summer sun scorched the hot pain on the body of the Guizi messenger, and the eagle hovering from the height saw the bloody prey on the cross, and the saliva overflowed, and from time to time it suddenly fell, and pecked at the fresh meat on the Qiuzi messenger.

"Ah......h

The terrible screams made people shudder, especially King Qiuzi, who seemed to have signs of incontinence. Just yesterday, he sent 50,000 of Qiuzi's most elite soldiers and horses out of the city to meet him.

It was the army that he thought he was mighty, and in the confrontation with the Holy Huaxia Empire, it only suffered a round of artillery bombardment before it became chaotic and scattered and fled.

Then, the Holy Huaxia Imperial Army sent several sentinels to shout back and forth outside Duyan City: "Hand over the king of Qiuci to protect the lives of the people in the city." Otherwise, the Imperial Army will have the people of Duyan City bury the dead Imperial merchants. ”

When they heard this, the people of the city were terrified. They had heard of what the Eastern Empire had done in the Xianbei Grassland in the past, and they had done a lot of slaughtering cities.

From this moment on, King Qiuzi found that the civil and military officials in the court and the people in the city, including the wives and concubines next to the pillow, looked at him differently. He always felt that someone was going to harm him, and that his head was going to be sent out of the city.
