Green Ridge, where several major mountain ranges in Asia meet. The Silk Pass between wide valleys and basins between tall mountain ranges. It is home to a large number of semi-nomadic and semi-agrarian peoples. They made their fortunes on the prosperity of silk. At opposite ends of the ridge are two completely different worlds.

The vast army that winds and stretches as far as the eye can see is slaughtered from the pass under the plateau. Countless elite cavalry of the Han army stepped on the corpses of people and animals, and walked through one burning village after another, rushing towards the capital of the Great Wan Kingdom in the distance.

After a year of replenishment, the Han army at this time was more powerful and ruthless than when it was in the northern expedition to the grassland! They will never let go of any of their enemies.

The border battle that had erupted a few days earlier ended in a complete victory for the Han army.

Basically, the alliance between Dawan and the Dayue clan, who had no will to fight, was over after the Han army launched an attack. King Dawan was the first to flee, and with his royal guards, he fled the battlefield early when the Han army crossed the river.

Originally, he planned to take advantage of the good opportunity for the Han army to cross the river to fight a battle, but after the general of the Dayue clan engaged in the battle, he was surprised to find that the Dawan people had actually run away. It was their king who took the lead and ran first. The general of the Otsutsuki clan, who was betrayed, scolded the Dawan people for dying, and urgently dispatched troops to escape with the Dawan people's buttocks. If he didn't run again, he wouldn't be able to walk if he wanted to after the Han army crossed the river.

I have to say that the horses of Dawan are indeed very good. Unlike the dwarf Mongolian horses of the steppe. The horses used by the Dawan and Yueshi people were taller, faster, and not bad in endurance at all, that is, poor in cold tolerance.

Not to mention, relying on the speed of the horses really made them escape a lot of horses. The Han army followed the pursuit, and only slowed down after the chase without giving up.

Half of the 10,000 Otsutsuki soldiers and horses who came to support were left behind. Along the ancient silk road, there were all the horses and corpses of the Otsuki clan.

As for the soldiers and horses of the Dawan Kingdom, they did not lose much. Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses ran clean. But they ran away, and the monk couldn't run away from the temple. The Dawan people are a semi-nomadic and semi-agricultural people, and they have cities and villages. Hundreds of thousands of Han troops pushed over, and those who did not want to leave their homes and businesses were all taken prisoner. Livestock property was plundered. Houses were burned, and people were sent to work as coolies. The entire Dawan country is full of mourning.

As the vanguard, Zhao Yun's troops followed the road that Li Guangli's army had walked in the past, and went straight to the capital of the Dawan king. When they reached the city, they realized that they had surrendered on their own initiative.

King Dawan and his family and nobles fled westward with the soldiers and horses of the Dayue clan and hid in the territory of the Dayue clan. The leaderless Dawan kings all took the initiative to surrender to the Han army under the city after a few days of chaos. This kind of small city can't withstand the gentle push of the Han army at all.

It was so easy to end.

"This land is fertile." Gao Yang leaned over and grabbed a handful of soil from the ground, pinched it hard and threw it away, and said with some emotion.

"It's full of rivers and beautiful mountains. The wind and rain are smooth all year round, otherwise you can't raise a good horse like Dawan Ma. Cao Cao on the side responded to Gao Yang's words in a timely manner.

Gao Yang glanced at him with a smile and said, "Then you are interested in staying here as a governor and supervising the development of immigrants." Will this be the land of our big man? ”

"This ......" Cao Cao immediately lowered his head with a tangled expression. Although Dawan is very good here, the mountains and rivers are beautiful and the products are abundant. And the exotic woman also has a unique flavor. It's just that this place is small, and it is not a big temple that can accommodate him Cao Cao at all.

"Alright." Gao Yang waved his hand, signaling that the topic would be revealed. Walk towards the royal capital of the Dawan people.

In the past, the pearl city on the silk where people came and went, is as silent as a ghost at the moment. In Central Asia, it is a rare place to be seen in the wide streets, except for the Han soldiers standing guard, there is not a single ghost.

The exotic buildings lining the streets are quiet and quiet. There is no such thing as looking at people inside the crack of the door. At this time, if you dare to lie down in the crack of the door and peek out, the sharp spear will immediately pierce you through all the people and doors.

"Such a depressed market. You really want to be an occupying force. The voice of the origin with a hint of teasing sounded in Gao Yang's mind.

Curled the corners of his mouth slightly, Gao Yang slowly rode forward, and responded softly, "What's wrong with the depression in the market?" I'm not here to do business. Don't you understand what it means to be in a war of conquest? It is to kill and drive out the natives. They were robbed of their wealth, their land, and everything. Make everything here your own. In the future, it would become the seat of the Central Asian Governor's Palace, and it should have been a military city. ”

"You know Alexander's expedition, right? He was almost as invincible as you were. However, after Alexander's expeditionary force left, all the lands he conquered rebelled. You don't have any ideas? Yuan asked with a smile.

"What's there to think about?" Gao Yang said indifferently, "Can he compare with me?" Can the Greeks compare with the Chinese? His original intention was to rob the wealth. But what I want to grab is land. The advantage of the farming people is that they can convert any piece of land into their own hereditary domain if they are given time. The earth is so big, but there will be so many Chinese people in the future. I can only plan for the future after the entire world island has been cleaned up as soon as possible. The scattered nation-states will not be able to build this planet as my backup base. In this era, the only one with the most potential to unify the universe is the Chinese nation. Do you understand? ”

"That's right." The origin responded: "The Western world in this era is in chaos. The Roman Empire was on the verge of collapse, and it was surrounded on all sides by uncivilized barbarian tribes. It's cold in the north, and there are big forests everywhere. To the south is the African desert. When the Romans played to their death, there was nothing left of the West. ”

"So I'm going to them." Gao Yang raised his head slightly, and said with a savior expression, "I want to free all ignorance and end all wars and disputes." Knock out those that shouldn't exist. Leave the essence behind. In the future, the world dominated by Chinese people will become even better. ”

"And in what capacity are you going to exist in the future?" The origin point asked out loud in confusion: "You can't always exist as a captain of the Han Empire, right?" An all-powerful god? Or a religious leader? ”

"Behind the scenes." Gao Yang looked at the palace of the Dawan people not far away, and said with a smile, "I only do behind the scenes." I don't need the world to have my legends circulating. I just need to have a firm grip on the world. ”

......

The rapid advance of the Han army not only frightened the Dawan people, but even the Dayue clan, who was the king and hegemon in this generation, was also frightened and looked at the Han army surging like a tide with strange eyes.

For the Otsuki clan, who immigrated from the East a few years ago. There is no other people in the vicinity who knows better than they how terrible the armies from the East are!

Neither the Han army nor the Xiongnu were able to resist the natives living in this land. What's more, the Han army repaired their army fiercely before. The people of the Otsuki clan, who have been consumed by a peaceful and easy life, are only left with wealth, and they no longer have the courage to fight to the death against a strong enemy.

The Otsuki clan sent the elders of the clan to come and beg for peace with a large number of gifts. They expressed their willingness to give the Dawan Kingdom to the Han Dynasty, and the two sides lived in harmony with the Dawan Kingdom as the boundary and regarded each other as brothers. As a sign of sincerity, the gifts brought by the elders of the Otsuki clan included the head of King Dawan, who had fled to the Otsuki clan.

"Don't say things that don't make sense." Gao Yang put down the wine glass in his hand, waved his hand unhappily to stop the interpreter from continuing to hang his stammering Chinese.

He put the wine glass in his hand on the table, stood up, and looked around the palace hall of the Dawan people. Keeping his eyes on the elders of the Great Moon Clan who were flustered, he hooked the corners of his mouth, and said with disdain, "All of your gold jewels, horses and beauties will be brought back." ”

"General!" After the translation was finished, the elder of the Otsuki clan in the lead immediately shouted in a panic, "If the general is too little, we can discuss it again, discuss it again!" ”

"Huh." Gao Yang shook his head slightly, and a thick disdain flashed in his eyes.

This Dayue clan was able to compete with the powerful Xiongnu a few years ago, and the two sides were mortal enemies of each other. Definitely not a weak brigade. But when they came to this rich place, they went about their business with the taxes collected from the fat and oily silk. When he robbed his body, he was poisonous, and the days passed unusually freely.

But behind this prosperous life is that after a few years have passed, the Dayue clan, which was able to fight with the Huns, the overlord of Northeast Asia, has fallen to the point where they dare not fight in the face of a strong enemy!

There are hundreds of thousands of troops in the air, but they only want peace and ease, and even to be able to seek stability. Ignoring the strong enemy on the side of the couch, he took the initiative to ask for peace, and easily betrayed his vassals. This kind of goods is not vulnerable at all!

It is no wonder that when the Middle Eastern empire arose in the future, it was like destroying all the countries on silk into the mud. Never be exalted!

"It's all good, but I don't need you to send it." Gao Yang raised his head slightly, and swept over the large group of mighty Han generals in the hall with a proud face, and shouted, "We will go and get it ourselves!" ”

Gaoyang has no shortage of wealth, and there is no shortage of horse beauties. He wasn't uncommon with something like this begging for his life.

Strong and ambitious. How could Gao Yang be bought by these things? He wants land, and cheap labor!

A country of brothers? Yes, show your strength. To be able to prove that you are qualified to be my brother's strength! As long as I can approve of it, then we are brothers.

Compared with others taking the initiative to send, Gao Yang prefers to use the war knife in his hand to grab it! (To be continued)
