(Thank you for your support.) Although I was mentally prepared, the dismal first order was still unexpected. Well, the path you choose will be completed on your knees. ）

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Three days later, Gan Yanshou led a large army to rendezvous. On the same day, news also came from Chen Tang's side.

Khotan ran away.

It's a pity, but it's to be expected. After all, in the battle of Encirclement and Ino, the Kangju people were not completely annihilated, and more than ten horsemen escaped. Some of these people will be separated, some will flee, but as soon as one of them escapes back to the camp, Khotan will be alerted. If he's smart enough, he'll choose to avoid the enemy's edge.

Obviously, this vice king of Kangju is a smart man and has made the right choice.

However, the monk can't run the temple if he runs away. Khotan ran away, and the Kangju cavalry led by him ran away, but the looted grain, grass, cattle and sheep, and population could not be taken away. The Inu poison has already paid the price of the annihilation of the entire army for this, and Khotan will not repeat the mistakes of the past.

However, Khotan is obviously not a good stubble, others are running away, and things are falling. But I can't get it, and I'm not willing to give it away. Before leaving, he ordered a fire.

Fortunately, the advance of the Han-Hu coalition army arrived in time and quickly killed at the beginning of the fire, stopped the spread of the fire, and intercepted and killed some Kangju people.

Most of the looted things of the Han army were returned to their original owners, and some of the Kangju cavalry who set fire to them and the slaves who did not escape were also captured. In addition, the cattle and sheep population of the Wusun people who were robbed by Khotan and Yinu were all owned by the Han army.

"Zigong and the Wusun envoy led the rescued four hundred and seventy-one Wusun people to Chigu Castle, meet with the Great Kunmi, and return the population." In the Chinese military tent, Gan Yanshou said while reading the brochure from the messenger, "All the seizures will arrive in the near future and will be used for military use." ”

Regardless of the Han and Hu generals in the tent, they all like to move the color, and it is another beautiful victory.

In fact, for the vassal armies of the Western Regions, this is the battle they want - there is no need to fight to the death, the enemy army flees in despair, leaving behind a lot of baggage, everyone has a lot of money, and their own strength is not lost...... If you can do this in every battle, you have to fight for the head.

In the Western Expedition, Gan Yanshou and Chen Tang each had their own tasks. Gan Yanshou was in charge of the military part, and Chen Tang was also responsible for negotiating with the envoys of the kings of various countries in addition to the military. Because in addition to being the deputy lieutenant of the Western Regions Protectorate, he also has an identity that cannot be ignored: the envoy of the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, his meeting with Wusun Dakunmi was in accordance with etiquette.

"Zigong suggested that the army march westward along the valley of the Yili River and enter the boundary of Kangju, and he would then come to join the army." Gan Yanshou rolled up his slip, raised his head and said, "All the gentlemen should prepare their own ones." ”

The generals saluted and retired, and in the end, there were only two people left in the tent: one was Zhang Fang, and the other was Chenglin Tianci of Wudan's branching mansion.

The two glanced at each other, and Zhang Fang smiled and made a gesture of "you please first".

Lin Tianci then saluted and said: "Yu Du Hu, when Cao Duwei of our country escorted Jiankun Xiaowang to leave, it was said that if the Han army arrived at the boundary of Wusun, it could send people to the north to call for a meeting with him, and then we would know whether there were Jiankun reinforcements. ”

Gan Yanshou stared at Lin Tianci and nodded slowly: "That's right, you once said this." So ......"

Lin Tianci said solemnly: "My subordinates are willing to go." ”

Gan Yanshou groaned a little and said, "It's okay, you go." If there are no reinforcements, if there are no reinforcements, you do not have to come and join them. ”

Lin Tianci was stunned for a moment, and said hurriedly: "Du Hu, after I am all in the Han army, I will have a blood feud with Zhizhi, and I will never ......."

Gan Yanshou raised his hand to stop: "Listen to me." I am not refusing you, but I want you to cut off the way of Zhizhi's northward escape from the north - this is the only gap that my army cannot fill, and if you have an army, I hope to stand alone. ”

Lin Tianci's blood surged, and he clenched his fists heavily: "I will definitely live up to the expectations of the protector." ”

Zhang Fang nodded secretly, Gan Yanshou really has the talent of a general. Lin Tianci and his udan were separated, and all the soldiers and horses added up to only a few dozen people, and among these tens of thousands of people, there were not many of them, and there were no few of them. However, if you can recruit Jiankun soldiers and horses and go straight to the backyard of Zhizhi from the north, it will be a dark move, and if you use it well, you can get the effect of a surprise soldier.

After Lin Tianci withdrew from the account, Gan Yanshou turned to Zhang Fang and said with a smile: "What does Zhang Gongzi have to say?" ”

In public, Gan Yanshou would call Zhang Fang's official rank, and in private he would call him Gongzi. Zhang Fang's weight, he understands better than anyone else, lower his stature and maintain enough respect, there will only be benefits in the future, no harm.

Zhang Fang glanced at the armor outside the tent and smiled without saying a word.

Gan Yanshou was slightly surprised, but still raised his voice: "Put down the curtain, retreat ten steps, and don't let anyone approach." ”

The armor outside the tent promised, put the curtain and retreated.

Zhang Fang said in a low voice: "I got some news, and I wanted to discuss it together after Chen Jun returned, but now Chen Jun can't wait for me for a while, so I can only ask you to protect it." ”

Gan Yanshou didn't speak, only showed a focused expression.

"Du Hu must have known that Zhi Zhi killed his Kangju clan."

Gan Yanshou nodded, he had also seen the confession of Inu poison.

"The murdered Kangju clan is the second (Xiongnu, princess) of the Kangju king Ren Sai, and his mother is the concubine of Ren Sai, and the second daughter of the Kangju dignitary and auxiliary Marquis Beise. The eldest daughter of Bei Se is the concubine of the little king of the rhino moon department, and she is also the mother of Tu Mo, the little king of the rhino moon who is currently in power. ”

Zhang Fang paused when he said this, so that Gan Yanshou could straighten out this somewhat complicated kinship.

Gan Yanshou really sorted it out for a while, and finally straightened it out. The killed Kangju clan, his maternal ancestor was Kangju's important minister, the auxiliary marquis Beise, and his cousin was Tu Mo, the little king of the Xiyue Department, one of the five Kangju tribes. No matter which one is, it is a very important minister of Kangju.

Gan Yanshou smacked his lips and realized: "The Kangju clan was killed, except for the Kangju Wang Rensai, there were at least four people who were dissatisfied - Princess Kangju, Fuguo Hou Beise, Princess of the Rhino Moon Department, and Xiao Wang of the Rhino Moon Department. ”

Zhang Fang answered: "It's true that there are four people, but there is no Princess Kangju, this person is deceased." Another person needs to be added, Kangju left to ride Jun Kaimu. ”

Gan Yanshou was slightly surprised: "Who is this?" ”

"The son of Beise, the uncle of the Kangju clan, and the general who guarded the eastern border between Kangju and Wusun."

"Defend the eastern border between Kangju and Wusun?" Gan Yanshou heard the doorway, and his eyes lit up.

"If we can send an envoy first, contact Kaimou, show the prestige of our army, express the goodwill of our army, and obtain the support of the Kangju people, the chances of winning the western expedition will increase by three points."

"If this can be the case, it will definitely ......" Gan Yanshou smiled and looked at Zhang Fang in confusion, "Where did Zhang Gongzi's news come from?" ”

"Kangju Zuo Du Wei Inu poison."

Gan Yanshou will be suspicious: "The words of the thief chief may be difficult to trust." ”

Zhang Fang said unhurriedly: "Why not give it a try?" There is only one messenger left and right, and when my army is approaching the city, the Kangju people no longer have the eyesight to see, and they don't dare to learn to kill the envoys, right? ”

It makes sense to think about Gan Yanshou, and it's good to try it. Since Kangju people are lying in the power of Zhizhi, it means that they are still very practical, so in the face of the Han Heavenly Soldiers, Anzhi will not choose again?

"Okay, I will send the soldiers of the Metropolitan Protectorate and the Marquis of Wensu to the eastern border of Kangju to contact this left horseman." (To be continued.) )
