Anqing, as the resting emperor, gave in and nodded, and the matter was settled. Especially Cao Cao, who was afraid of long nights and dreams, immediately drafted a contract, and signed a contract with Anqing in his office.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, you see how good it is, our two countries have become close partners, won't your wish be fulfilled?" Looking at the signed contract, Cao Cao didn't mention any of his joys, and then, he took out a box of cigars with white powder, handed it to An Qing and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, this box of 'fairy powder' is a gift from our Han to Your Majesty to celebrate our contract." In the future, if you need it, you can buy it directly from the shops in the city, and our Majesty has decided to sell the 'fairy powder' openly in your rest. ”

"Made, aren't you big men short of raw materials, don't you have too much 'fairy powder' to sell to me, why just after I signed this contract, you have goods for public sale in our rest?!" After listening to Cao Cao's words, Anqing's lungs were about to explode, but there was no way, in order to stop the shortage of white powder in the future, he had to endure this breath.

After sending Anqing away, Cao Cao hurriedly sent a telegram to Liu Hong about the contract. Seeing this news, Liu Hong was overjoyed.

"Great, those three empires, the task at this stage is finally completely diligent!"

For these three countries that can be compared with the Han Dynasty during this period, Liu Hong has a detailed plan. In order for them to never threaten the Great Han, Liu Hong planned to take three steps. The first step is to colonize them. The second step is to divide them into small countries one by one, so that they are all in civil strife, so that the big men can profit from them. The third step is to wait for the conditions of the Han to completely merge them into the Han Dynasty.

Of course. Liu Hong also knows that these three steps seem to be completed, and it will take at least a few decades, and if you don't get it right, it may take hundreds of years. But Liu Hong believes that as long as the plan is well planned and efforts are made in this direction, things will succeed sooner or later. No, didn't he complete this first step quite well!

"Now that the rest has been taken, I will quickly inform the prime minister. Let them rejoice too. ”

There is no need for Liu Hong to send someone to spread such a thing, as early as the moment he received the telegram, the news had already spread. And Liu Qi, who got the news, put down the things in his hand. began to run into the palace.

It's no wonder that Liu Qian is in a hurry, it's really too exciting news. Don't look at the fact that there is no compensation this time. However, the rest of the place raised the status of the Han people. and gave the Han land, which made the arrangements and deployments of the Han in Rome, Anxi, and Kushan, all on the same starting line, and they could arrange and guide the people as they wanted, but it made the imperial court save a lot of heart.

Liu Qian happily went to Liu Hong, but the generals in the Military Aircraft Department couldn't hold their breath. Especially the generals of the army, who had not moved for a long time, and when they saw that the navy and the army under the governor's command had made great achievements, they began to make a noise about the commander-in-chief.

In fact, don't say that ordinary generals are making a fuss. The five commanders of the Military Aircraft Department couldn't hold back anymore. You must know that among them, except for Liu Fu, they have not acted for a long time, and even Liu Fu has wanted to be idle at home for nearly two years, and now that they see others making meritorious contributions, where can they sit still.

"No, we can't wait any longer. Your Majesty has long said that you will act, but there is no letter until now, so we must give Your Majesty a wake-up call. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty has long said that he will destroy all the countries in the Western Regions that are close to our Han Dynasty, but now that Rome, Anxi, and Guishan have all cleaned up, but which places have not been moved, it is really inappropriate."

"Okay, let's not talk about it here, let's go to Your Majesty!"

"Yes, go to Your Majesty!" Speaking of which, the five commanders went directly to Liu Hong.

Liu Qian didn't know that the generals of the army couldn't bear it. He is now happily living with Liu Hongbai how to better enslave and plunder Rome, rest and Kushan. And at this time, the five commanders came to the palace.

These five commanders, but the top existence of the Han army, the Han came to the palace together, Liu Hong thought that something big had happened, so he hurriedly asked: "A few Aiqing, what happened, why did you let a few of you come over together?" ”

"Your Majesty, nothing happened, a few of us came here to ask Your Majesty, those countries in the Western Regions, when will we fight?"

"Oh, so these guys can't wait!" As soon as he heard their words, Liu Hong understood everything, so Liu Hong asked Liu Qian: "Uncle Huang, how are the preparations for the conquest done, and when can we send troops?" ”

"Your Majesty, all the preparations for the conquest have been completed by our Government Council. As long as Your Majesty is willing, we can mobilize troops at any time. ”

Hearing Liu Qi's words, several commanders were all excited. This means that it won't be long before they can go out to fight.

Seeing their excited looks, Liu Hong smiled and said: "The preparations of the Government Council have been completed, how are the preparations of your army completed, if you can, then let's send troops as soon as possible!" ”

"Your Majesty, we have already prepared, as long as the logistics materials of the Government Council are delivered, we can send troops at any time!"

"Alright, since all the preparations are completed, let's send troops as soon as possible!"

What Liu Hong wants to attack this time is the 36 countries of the Western Regions, that is, the Xinjiang in the future. Liu Hong couldn't let go of this area no matter what, so since it was all ready, and the military couldn't bear it, it would simply start fighting.

Hearing that Liu Hong was going to send troops directly, Liu Qian's brows furrowed. Although Liu Qian, who had already appreciated the benefits of the invasion, was eager to quickly defeat the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions. But for a long time, the Han Dynasty has flaunted the state of etiquette, and this crusade against the subject country for no reason has never been done.

"Your Majesty, before we send troops, do we have to find a reason first? You know, let's send troops directly, but it doesn't conform to the concept of our big man. Speaking of this, Liu Qian said a little worriedly: "Although with His Majesty's current prestige, even if he forcibly sends troops, no one can stop him. But Weichen thinks it's better to find a reason. After all, if you directly tear off this fig leaf, it will make people become careless, which is not necessarily a good thing for a country. ”

Listening to Liu Qian's words, Liu Hong couldn't help but nod for a while. He knew that although the country in "Sima Fa" was warlike and bound to perish, it was not without a little truth. It's good to live a lifetime, or have a little awe. If he tore all the fig leafs without scruples and made Dahan have no scruples at all, maybe he didn't have anything when he was alive, but what will happen in the future, it's hard to say. At the very least, if the big man is so domineering that he has no scruples, he will definitely become the target of other countries.

Hearing Liu Qian's words, these commanders didn't care at all, because they had already thought of a countermeasure, "Your Majesty, we have also considered this issue." We can use the opportunity of the Games to bring people from these countries as we did last time. And with the lesson of the last time, those countries will definitely not dare to come, so don't we have an excuse! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the third movement of our Great Han is about to be held. Let's take advantage of this opportunity to take down all those countries! ”

"My day, if the Games are held this time, if I take the opportunity to get rid of those countries in the Western Regions, the reputation of this Games will definitely be completely stinky!"

The sports meeting has been made a fixed project by Liu Hong, which is held every three years, and this year is the third time. Speaking of which, it is not impossible to use this Games as an excuse to get rid of these countries in the Western Regions. However, the last time we got rid of those foreigners on the grassland, we did it under the pretext of holding a sports meeting, and if we use this excuse again this time, it will have a very negative impact on the sports meeting.

For the sports meeting, Liu Hong still attaches great importance to it. After all, its holding is conducive to the improvement of the physical fitness of the Han people, so Liu Hong doesn't want those unfavorable things to affect it. But this matter was raised by those commanders, and Liu Hong was not easy to oppose clearly, so he asked Liu Qian: "Uncle Huang, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Liu Qian doesn't have Liu Hong's overall view, for him, as long as there is an excuse to send troops, everything is already fine, and this idea is still used by Liu Hong, of course he can't object, "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the idea of a few commanders is good, and we can use this as an excuse." ”

"Made, asking is almost as effective as not asking." Hearing Liu Qian's words, Liu Hong shook his head for a while: "Although this idea is good, the effect is too slow." After all, these places are not close, and this back and forth will take a long time, are you willing to wait like this? ”

As soon as Liu Hong said this, the others all frowned. After all, what Liu Hong said was the truth, they are going to the Western Regions to spread the message now, and then wait until people from which countries come, it will take a few months to do so, and they definitely don't want to wait.

"Your Majesty, but if we don't use this excuse, then what excuse do we use?" They all knew that Liu Hong paid a lot of attention, and since Liu Hong said that, there must have been a countermeasure, so they asked Liu Hong directly.

"There is no excuse for the crime that you want to add, let's give them a crime, it's not a simple matter!" After listening to their questioning, Liu Hong said with a determined face: "Since I ascended the throne, these countries have not come to pay tribute to me, which is a great disrespect to me. For so many years, I have always had a wish for peace, hoping that they would wake up. But until now, they have been like no one, and they are really unbearable, so I have decided to raise troops to attack them in order to maintain the dignity of our suzerain! (To be continued......)
