The Xiongnu envoy has been waiting in Yangguan Post for nearly a month, and he is still quite sincere, and the level of the envoy sent is also quite high, and he is even more sincere. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info is the Hun right big and Qu Xu Bu teeth, this is an old man in his sixties, looks inconspicuous, but the demeanor is quite graceful, the Han etiquette is actually very skillful, no worse than the Han officials of the envoys.

When meeting with Zhang Fang, Gan Yanshou and other principal and deputy envoys, he took off his hat as a gift. Although he didn't stumble, when he thought of this person's identity and official position, it was already a very respectful salute.

In another small carriage, Zhaojun looked at the city of Yangguan and the Han and Hungarian envoys saluting each other, while poking out half of his face from the car window, and asked Qingyan in a low voice: "This is the official of the Huns?" It seems to be similar to the magnates of Chang'an, and it doesn't look like a barbarian at all. ”

There was a reason for Zhaojun to ask Qingyan, because after learning that Gongzi was about to send an envoy to the Xiongnu, Qingyan and the Han brothers and other entourages who were about to leave immediately began to read books one by one—yes, that's right, they began to read books to see if they could collect all the information related to the Xiongnu.

Because it is information, it is only available to relevant subordinates, so although Zhaojun is also one of the entourage, he is not qualified to contact these, so he can only ask Qingyan from time to time.

Qing Yan was still paying close attention to the information of the upper echelons of the Xiongnu, and after a little thought, he said: "This is not strange, this Da Jiqu is a hereditary position, and only the Su Bu clan can inherit it in the past dynasties. The Xu Bu clan is one of the three major surnames of the Xiongnu, which has been passed down for hundreds of years and can be called the old nobles of the Xiongnu. It is not surprising at all that there is such a bearing. ”

Zhaojun suddenly remembered these materials in his heart.

Qing Yan thought for a while, and then said, "Oh, by the way, this subu tooth seems to be the father of the right Yan clan who is preparing to succeed Mo Gao......"

"Where is the army of King Zuo Xian now?" After the cold noise, Zhang Fang asked this in the first sentence.

Subu motioned to his retinue to unfold a brief parchment map and point to a certain point: "Ten days ago, news came that a large army was stationed here. "This right-handed, right-handed, Chinese-speaking is quite passable, at least understandable.

Zhang Fang, Gan Yanshou, Gongsun Fu and others immediately stepped forward. Zhang Fang and Gan Yanshou knew the terrain of the Western Regions best, especially the sphere of influence of the Duhu Mansion, and at first sight, they blurted out: "Pu Zhize!" ”

The governor of Yangguan on the side also said: "It's Pu Zhize." Since receiving the warning, we have been waiting for the border gates and counties, Dunhuang, Jiuquan, Juyan, Yumen Pass, and Yangguan. The Western Regions Protectorate and Jiaohebi have also entered a state of alert. ”

Zhang Fang's familiarity with Pu Zhize, especially above Gan Yanshou, who had only heard of it, but Zhang Fang had really been there. He obeyed the Zongba in the team, and he was a pure Pu countryman.

The Duwei of Yangguan suggested: "Duhu Duhu sent a message the day before yesterday that he had led his army to Jiaohe for 300 miles and was stationed in the Toulon River Valley, waiting for and protecting the envoys. ”

Zhang Fang pointed his finger diagonally northwest along Yangguan, and paused somewhere: "The west entrance of the Toulon River Valley is probably here, that is to say, our next route and meeting point are here." ”

Both the Subu Tooth and the Yang Pass Lieutenant glanced at the young envoy in surprise, and nodded at the same time: "Exactly." ”

The envoy set off again, this time there were more than ten Huns in the entourage, although the number of the other party was not much, but it was only necessary to understand at a glance that all of them were the elite of the Huns. There are also more than a dozen vehicles accompanying the car, all of which are grain and grass. When traveling in the territory of Dahan, there is a post almost every 100 miles along the way, supplementing food and accommodation, and everything is worry-free. But as soon as you get out of Yangguan, let alone the old people, you can't even see a few passers-by. Therefore, carrying enough grain and grass is the most important thing.

The Governor of Yangguan sent a team of cavalry and guides to escort the envoys to the eastern entrance of the Toulon River Valley, and then returned. As long as you follow the valley mouth and go all the way to the west, you can meet with the troops of the Western Regions.

There are guides, elite soldiers, and local retinues, and there are almost no cases of getting lost or being attacked. On the way, except for a little detour due to heavy rain and landslides blocking the road, there was no major danger.

Half a month later, the envoys and their entourage appeared safely at the exit of the Toulon River Valley, and successfully met with the Western Regions Metropolitan Protector Duan Huizong, Deputy Captain Guo Xi, and an old acquaintance, Sima Duxun of the current Jiaohebi Army.

Zhang Fang and Duan Huizong are old acquaintances, and they have a lot of friendship, and they have more friendship with Guo Xi and Du Xun. Gan Yanshou was the last protector of the Western Regions, not to mention the generals, even the ordinary officials of the Metropolitan Protectorate are familiar with it. Comrades, that is, modern comrades-in-arms, that kind of relationship and feelings, there is no need to elaborate, just think about it.

It turns out that there are still old people in the west out of Yangguan.

After a happy gathering, the military Sima Duxun reported on the recent developments of the Huns: "There is good news, the front and rear of the Cheshi, the front and rear of the Pu class, at the request of the capital protectorate, sent troops to block the road to the south of Izan Moyan. Taking advantage of the situation, Mogao led a large army in the northeast of Puzhize and surrounded the remnants of Izan Moyan, and there were three skirmishes between the two sides. Half a month ago, Izamo led the remnants to surrender to the carved pottery Mogao. ”

Zhang Fang and Gan Yanshou glanced at each other and said happily: "So, this rebellion is over?" ”

Du Xun nodded heavily: "It's over!" ”

When the group heard it, they were all happy. Of course, the most excited was the Xiongnu envoy and his party, who immediately took off his hat and saluted the generals of the capital to express his gratitude. Although the Metropolitan Protectorate did not send a single soldier, the Cheshi and Pu countries were willing to send troops to help, and they were not afraid of the might of the Han army?

This incident further made the upper echelons of the Huns, such as Xu Bu Nanya, see the strength of the great powers, and become fearful.

The Xiongnu rebellion was successfully resolved, so that the envoys finally went on the road with peace of mind. However, the affairs of the war are fickle, and in order to prevent unforeseen things from happening, Duan Huizong decided to send Du Xun personally to lead 200 troops to escort the envoys to the north until the mission is completed.

If it was in the territory of the Great Han Dynasty, none of the 2,000 stone county guards and commanders would dare to send more than fifty people to escort them. Because the highest authority of local officials can only send 50 people. There is only an exception for the Western Regions Metropolitan Protectorate, which can dispatch troops and horses according to the needs of the situation, and there is no upper limit on the number of personnel. As long as you play it beforehand, you can do it.

Sending people to protect the envoys is justifiable, especially if the envoy is still a relative of the prince and the king. Duan Huizong's note is not at all a risk for national affairs like Gan Yanshou and Chen Tang back then, but a real shot.

From this point, it can be seen that Duan Huizong is worthy of being a person who can serve as a local commander at the foot of Du Ling, the son of heaven, and he is sleek and knowledgeable. It's no wonder that Gan Yanshou and Chen Tang were only a year and a half as a protector and deputy lieutenant, but what about Duan Huizong? He served two terms as the protector of the Western Regions - and it was not re-elected, but the successor was unqualified, and later the imperial court worshiped him as the protector again to clean up the chaos in the Western Regions...... It is conceivable that this gentleman is energetic.

Of course, Zhang Fang will not have an opinion, thank you and smile.

From the Toulon River Valley to the north of Pu Shize, this route does not need to look at the map to know, because he experienced it personally when he fled. From there, it takes twenty days to reach the meeting point with the Huns.

Twenty days later, what will happen to the Han-Hungarian alliance? (To be continued.) )
