Chapter 195: Guishuang plots against Dawan

The camera will turn, let's see what Buddhism is doing?

In the northwest of Tianzhu, there was a powerful country, which was one of the four most powerful empires during this period; Kushan Empire.

The territory of Guishan is equivalent to the entire Jiangbei land of the Han Dynasty, the sum of Hebei, and, you, Qing, Gon, plus Sili. His predecessor was the Otsuki clan.

There are many people who believe in Buddhism in his country, even if they are court officials, there are many Buddhists, but Buddhism has not been promoted by Guishan, and there is a faint sense of suppression.

After seeing Liu Kun's cultivation of the three layers of ghosts and immortals, the Buddhists have realized that the progress of merely relying on folk preaching is too slow, and if they want to win over believers in a big way, they must get the support of the courts of various countries.

At this time, Zhu Falan, who was sent to the Han Dynasty to preach, returned to Tianzhu and brought back a piece of news; The monarch of Kushan, Vesudeva, has been on the throne for nearly three years, but the power in his hands has been hollowed out by the courtiers, like a puppet king, depressed and unwilling.

After some deliberation, the Buddhists thought that this was an opportunity for Buddhism to become the state religion of Kushan, and sent Zhu Phran to contact Vesudeva and express to him;

As long as Vesudeva supported Buddhism as the state religion of Kushan, and supported Buddhism to co-opt believers, Buddhism strongly supported Vesudeva and made him a veritable monarch.

At the same time, Zhu Falan told the king of Guishan about the rapid expansion and great ambition of the Han Dynasty, hinting that at the current speed of the Han expansion, at the latest next year, it will invade Guishan, and if there is no Buddhist support, the Guishan country will be destroyed, only in the evening!

The Han Dynasty expanded its territory in a big way, and the King of Kushan also knew a little; By this time, Zhangjaw's army had conquered several small states in the northeastern part of Kushan. If it weren't for the mountain hazards. Jaw's troops will definitely attack Kushan.

King Kushan believed that Buddhism was united. The benefits outweigh the disadvantages, and the conditions of Buddhism are agreed to one by one!

In just one month, the two auxiliary ministers who controlled the power of the court returned to heaven one after another, and the rest of the courtiers were scattered, and they were gradually pulled together by the King of Guishan.

At the same time, it is announced to the whole country; From today onwards, Buddhism is the state religion of Kushan!

The population of the Kushan country is 10 million, and the Buddhists have shown several miracles in the Kushan country. The number of believers in Kushan increased from one million to more than three million, which not only made up for the loss of the land of Funan, but also stabilized and consolidated Shakyamuni's cultivation in the ghost and immortal period.

With the addition of 2 million followers, Shakyamuni no longer has to worry about a sudden drop in the realm.

In October, the King of Kushan unified the dynasty, and his ambitions grew, and he wanted to build a strong army.

"You should have heard of it, this year. The Han Dynasty expanded wildly, almost doubling its territory. The power of his country has bordered my country, and I estimate that there will be a war between my Guishan and the Han Dynasty.

I want to train strong soldiers, but there is no good horse, I don't know what Zhu Qing thinks! ”

There are ministers who are tired of playing and played: "In the north of my Guishuang, there is a small country, called Dawan, its country is rich in BMW, if Dawan is conquered, you can get more than 10,000 BMW!" ”

Youchen Ma Ming retorted: "No, between my Guishuang and Dahan today, it is precisely because of Dawan as a buffer that there is no face-to-face engagement. If our country sends troops to Dawan, it will force Dawan into the arms of the Han, and at that time, the Han will not blow up and get Dawan, and its soldiers will be directed at my Guishuang! ”

After smacking Ma Ming's words, the courtiers agreed: "Ma Ming's words are reasonable!" ”

"This is a golden word!"

"If it weren't for Ma Ming, I would have almost lost the country!"

Jia Shi said indignantly: "Even if I don't attack Dawan, won't Dawan take refuge in Dahan?" Our army is short of horses, what good can you do? ”

Ma Ming said with a picture of Zhizhu in his hand: "King Dawan has only one daughter, named Xuelian, twenty-eight years old, her appearance can be described as a country and a city, the most important thing is that this woman has not yet married!"

My king is wise and martial, young and promising, it is a good match for the princess of Snow Lotus, if you marry her, the good horse of Dawan is equal to the good horse of our country, and I will be at the mercy of my king! ”

When King Guishan heard this, he immediately ordered: "This matter is so decided, with Ma Ming as the envoy, send Dawan to ask for his marriage!" Tell King Dawan that I want 10,000 BMW as a dowry!! ”

Ma Ming hurriedly played: "The king can't, if this is the case, it will be difficult to ask for marriage, marry the princess first, and then try to win a BMW!" ”

Kushan Royal Road; "I married the princess, and it took at least half a year to get married, and the matter of strengthening the army was imminent. If you wait half a year to get a good horse, it's too late! At this time, it is so decided, scattering the dynasty! ”

After speaking, the King of Guishan brushed his sleeves away!

He gloated at the horse: "Some people claim to be smart, but now they are lifting a stone and shooting themselves in the foot, a dowry of 10,000 horses, hahahaha!" ”

Ma Ming had no choice but to send an envoy stupidly, hoping that God would bless him that his three-inch tongue could convince King Dawan.

Dawan is in the west of the Han Dynasty, about 10,000 miles away from Chang'an in the Han Dynasty. (about 7,000 miles in a straight line) most of the inhabitants of the country cultivated rice. Wheat for a living.

During this period, Dawan was famous for its wine and good horses, and its horses were famous in Dawan; Akhal-Tekinma. Legend has it that the ancestor of this horse was a Pegasus.

Because there is a red substance in the sweat of the neck part when it runs, it is bright red like blood, so it is called "sweat and blood BMW".

The sweat and blood horse is handsome and martial, beautiful in size, light and flexible, with infinite endurance and endurance, which can be used by the light cavalry for a long time and long-distance riding, even if it is an ordinary sweat and blood horse, it can run more than 600 miles a day.

If it is paired with a horseshoe, its speed will be increased by 20%.

The role of the horseshoe is so great, just looking at Liu Kun's army can know that even Liu Kun's Karasuma horse and Xianbei horse, after nailing the horseshoe, can do 500 a day, not to mention this world-famous sweat and blood horse.

There are more than 70 large and small towns in Dawan, with about one million people. To the west of it is Kangju, and to the west is Khorezm, two small countries with similar national strength and territory to Dawan.

To the east is Huyi, Yuning. To the west of Yuliao, the river flows westward and flows into the West Sea. The river to the east of Yu Kou flows eastward and flows into Shiozawa. The water of Shiozawa flows underground, and to the south of it is the source of the Yellow River, from which the water of the Yellow River flows.

The Wusun Kingdom in the northeast of Dawan, now Wusun, Huyi, and Yuning are all occupied by the Han army. The northwest of Dawan is the Northern Xiongnu, and the territory of the Northern Xiongnu is slightly larger than Wusun, which is about equivalent to a continent of the Han Dynasty! The strength of his department is at least twice that of Dawan.

The southwest of Dawan is the country of rest, the rest of this period, and it is also one of the four empires of this period, and its territory is equivalent to the sum of the four states of Hebei, And, You, and Qing of the Han Dynasty, and its national strength is slightly smaller and Guishan.

In the southeast of Dawan is the Guishan we just mentioned, and the national strength of Guishan is at least ten times that of Dawan. (To be continued......)
