Chapter 109: The Western Regions 'Near' Recovery

Liu Xie's love for the dragon son and dragon girl spread all over Chengdu overnight. After Liu Xie, it is equivalent to the continuation of the Han Dynasty, and this symbol of the continuation of power is not only the ministers of the court and the central government, but also the ordinary people.

If a person who came from later generations saw it, it would be hard to imagine that people in this period would have such strange thoughts, and what does it matter to you if they have a future leader! Happy hairball! But people in this period don't think so, because Liu Xie brought them hope, and after Liu Xie has it, then this is a continuation of hope. This kind of feeling is unimaginable to future generations.

It's like Liu Xie himself couldn't figure it out at the beginning, let's talk about the celebration of the whole world, that's just talking, whether you are happy or not, what's the matter with me! But when he heard that there were really people in the market who were so excited about this matter that they burst into tears, and then invited guests in a big way, Liu Xie was a little stunned for a while!

He can only sigh that the people's thinking in this period is really simple!

Just when Liu Xie was happy to win the dragon son and phoenix girl, Lao Yuan and Lao Cao finally opened their positions in Guandu and couldn't hold each other.

At this time, Yuan Shao, the two generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou, were not killed by Lao Cao as in history. may be because without the help of Second Brother Guan, without the help of Xu Huang and Zhang Liao, in the war between Cao and Yuan, Lao Cao was not as sharp as in history.

But no matter what, Lao Cao's 100,000 army, or Lao Yuan's 300,000 army, is now holding each other in Guandu.

Every day there are small battles, and there are winners and losers.

At the same time, Liu Xie's Han army also launched an attack on Wusun.

The relationship between the country of Wusun and the Han Dynasty can be said to be quite complicated.

During the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, in order to completely defeat the Xiongnu, he sent envoys to contact the Western Regions, and formed a political alliance with these small countries in the form of peace to jointly deal with the oppression of the Xiongnu. At that time, the largest kingdom in the Western Regions was Wusun, which was close to the Xiongnu.

Wusun was originally active in the area of Dunhuang and Qilian Mountains (i.e., the Hexi Corridor), and later moved westward to the Ili River valley and the area around Issyk-Kul Lake, located in the western part of the Xiongnu. Wusun is mainly engaged in animal husbandry, with a population of more than 600,000 and a military force of nearly 190,000.

Because of the long-term rule and enslavement of the Xiongnu, and later with the gradual increase of national strength, politically tried to get rid of the control of the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu nobles attacked Wusun several times, but they were all defeated by Wusun. In this case, Zhang Qian, who had been an envoy to the Western Regions, suggested that the Han Dynasty use a generous bribe to lure Wusun so that it would return to the old land of Dunhuang, and at the same time marry a princess and become a brother with Wusun. In this way, you can 'break the right arm of the Huns' and jointly flank the Huns.

Therefore, Wusun and the Han Dynasty began to cooperate during the period of Emperor Wu, but later because the national strength of the Eastern Han Dynasty gradually weakened, the countries of the Western Regions read their strength one after another, and the princes of the Central Plains fought wars, who still cares about the countries of the Western Regions! In this case, Wusun, who had already had contact with the Xiongnu, once again cooperated with the Xiongnu.

Because of this, the current Wusun Dakun Mimani did not accept surrender, and planned to unite with the Xiongnu to block the Han army from continuing northward.

What the Han army did in the Western Regions had long attracted attention in the Xiongnu Xianbei and other tribes.

However, in Wusun, not all of them were pro-Xiongnu, and they also had pro-Han representatives. Its representative is Xiao Kun Mi Mosa, in Lu Bu led the crowd with Tai Shi Ci, Huang Zhong, Xu Chu and others to attack Wusun at the same time, Xiao Kun Mi Mosa also took Moxia to make chaos in Wusun and stabbed the big Kun Mi Mani.

With the cooperation of the Red Dragon Guard, the Great Kun Mimani and his supporters were quickly killed by Mosa.

At the same time that Wusun, under the leadership of the new Dakun Mimosa, surrendered to the Han Dynasty, Zhao Yun also took Moxia and cooperated with his brother-in-law Ma Chao, Ma Dai, as well as Pang De, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and others to surround the Dayue clan.

The Dayue Clan did not resist to the death like the Wusun Kingdom, and after the Han army appeared, it surrendered directly. Even the king of the Otsuki clan is ready to sacrifice the princess of the Otsuki clan to the emperor of the Han dynasty in order to be good for eternity. This proposal was rejected by Guo Jia and Jia Xu. Of course, the beauties can be accepted and sent to Chengdu to be dedicated to the emperor.

They don't dare to rob such a thing as a beautiful woman, otherwise if Liu Xie is investigated in the future, they will not be able to bear his anger. As for Yongshi Tonghao, then it is not necessary, the Da Yue clan can retain its cultural heritage, but it must accept the Han culture, that is, sinicization.

This is the keynote of Liu's agreement, and slowly sinicizing these Hu countries can retain their cultural heritage of various ethnic groups, but Han culture must be learned.

Of course, this is a preferential treatment for those small countries that surrender first before the war, as for those small countries that resist to the end, there is no such good thing, it is good that the race is not exterminated, and they plan to retain their own cultural heritage, there is no door!

Although the Han army has done countless bloody things along the way, it has to be said that this method is quite deterrent.

And after returning to the Han Dynasty, as long as you have the ability, you can go to the Central Plains to live, or join the army as a general, or be an official. At this time, the Han Dynasty, in the eyes of these small countries, was the Heavenly Kingdom, the Heavenly Empire, and the attraction of being able to enter the Heavenly Dynasty as an official was not small.

Even many aliens want to have the status of the Celestial Empire and are proud to have such an identity. It will definitely not be like later generations, one by one, they are proud of immigrating abroad, and they have lost all their national culture, but they worship foreign countries, which is too embarrassing!

As soon as Wusun and the Great Moon Clan fell, the countries of the Western Regions were almost taken down, and the remaining small countries surrendered one after another.

Finally, the 'Han army', which has developed from tens of thousands of troops to more than 200,000 troops, began to deploy against the Xiongnu and Xianbei.

From this, it can be seen that those enslaved and the nearly 200,000 extra army are not only thinking about survival, but also thinking about getting enough benefits from it. Otherwise, how could they not rebel? If someone takes the lead in rebellion, the Han army will have no power to fight back in this situation. But now, this army maintains a fairly strong fighting force and morale.

This is the horror of feeding war with war, drawing a big pie...... In fact, it's not really a pie, because when sharing the spoils of war after the war, basically whoever has made the most meritorious service can share the big one first, and the more military merits, the more spoils of war will naturally be.

Under such stimulation, others naturally worked harder.

……

On the third day of the baby's birth, when Liu Xie was holding a banquet in the palace for his son and daughter, he finally received good news from the Western Regions.

When everyone saw Liu Xie laughing with the note, the ministers all looked at him with strange looks. (To be continued.) )
