Chapter 796: The Queen's Wrath
Latia already looks much more mature than a few years ago, her slightly squinted eyes are shining with a determined light, her slender eyelashes and delicate facial features make her look not only beautiful but also have a superior temperament, but it may be that the impression a few years ago was too deep, Liu Zhang always felt that the girl in front of her was childish.
But Liu Zhang knew that this kind of childishness was very dangerous, and he was deceived by this childishness several times a few years ago, when it was just a princess problem, and now it is a matter of war, Liu Zhang listened carefully to Latia's words, not to be deceived by her childishness.
"Liu Zhang, let me give you an analysis, although I didn't know it before, but since the Wusun Army is directly occupying Jingjue, not to occupy Shache, what does it mean? It shows that they just want to cut off the back road of our Shache army, and the real killing move has not been made.
If my prediction is correct, the real killer move of the Wusun army is the army of the Yue Empire, and it is likely that the Wusun people have colluded with the Yue Empire.
His Royal Highness the King of Shu, you can kill me, and Shache can be destroyed, but can you defeat the Wusun and Yueshi Empires? Even if you transfer all the troops outside the White Dragon Heap, you may not be able to take these two armies, not to mention that you can't support tens of thousands of people so far away in combat supplies.
So, Liu Zhang, you need me, you can't kill me, it's not me begging you not to kill me, if you are willing to accept equal cooperation with me, I can order the Shache army to attack the city with the Sichuan army, if you want to drive me, hehe, you think too much. ”
Lathia spoke loudly, and the hall looked at her in shock, how could the generals of the Sichuan army not see that this little girl was so powerful, and dared to shout so loudly in front of the lord, many of whom had known Latea before. Same as Liu Zhang. I also feel that the Latia in front of me is different from the girl who seemed to be very docile a few years ago.
Of course, Liu Zhang knew that the girl's meekness a few years ago was faked. pretended to be injured in Yangping Pass and pretended not to know Chinese to deceive and take care of her, and later pretended to be the daughter of King Qiang to deceive Liu Zhang to let her go, and then pretended to be innocent and lied to sympathy, and finally pretended to be poisoned.
is just like his previous life, he is a professional actor, and with this childlike and innocent face, if he is an ordinary person, he really can't tell the difference. Even if Liu Zhang had learned acting like this, he almost thought it was true during the short time when he was poisoned in Latia Qiang.
It turns out that this girl deceived the dead and did not pay for her life.
But meekness is fake, then she was also pretending at the beginning, when she was the princess of Shache, she was a hostage in the hands of the Sichuan army, and she had to pretend in order to survive and leave.
Isn't it the same now? Also hostages, too, to leave. Why don't you install it? Even if she saw that she was going to use Shachejun, and she didn't want to be used by herself. It's time to take the opportunity to leave, right?
Why are you looking so fierce now? Did she get carried away when the queen was in charge?
However, Liu Zhang still admired Latia's wisdom, and before he could react, Wusun would collude with the Kushan Empire, and she actually analyzed it from Wusun's strategy.
If Mi Tian really fought alone for Wusun, it would be absolutely impossible to run to occupy a jingjue, but to occupy Shache, and not to occupy Shache, which can only prove that the Wusun army and others have divided labor, and the Wusun army only undertook the task of cutting off.
If Wusun joins forces with the Kushan Empire, it will be really difficult.
In Liu Zhang's view, Wusun's problem is still an internal problem, but Guishan is a big empire, Liu Zhang must not let such a big empire get involved in the Western Regions, it is much more difficult to drive it out than a Wusun.
Liu Zhang felt that what Lathia said was true, and Wusun must have cut off the back road of Shache, and then let Guishuang destroy Shache, so as to achieve the goal of carving up the remaining sphere of influence of Shache with Wusun.
If this is the case, then the speed of taking down the essence should be faster, and against a big empire like the Kushan Empire, it should be a quick battle and nip their invasion in the bud, if they completely occupy Shache, the royal family of the rear empire has already germinated the idea of turning Shache into Kushan territory, it will be a war of attrition.
Although the Kushan Empire is far from Shache to climb over the green mountains and cross the desert, but the Han is 108,000 miles away from Shache, and it is definitely the Han who suffers if he wants to fight with the Kushan Empire in this place.
A quick victory, whether it is their physical condition, their supply situation, or the factors of the war situation, they must achieve this goal, and to achieve this goal, their own 10,000 people cannot do it.
Liu Zhang still needs Latia's strength and her own abilities.
"Her Majesty." Liu Zhang looked at the angry Latia lightly: "Your Majesty is right, this king really needs your strength, but don't think about it if you cooperate equally, I can ignore your troops, or you are in command, and those snakes and insects you raise are also yours."
But you yourself must be controlled by the king's people, that is to say, you can take the piccolo with you, but you must not have any poison on your body, your food, clothing, shelter and transportation must be guarded by my soldiers, you can command your army, but your guards must be people from my Sichuan army......"
"You ......" Before Liu Zhang finished speaking, Latia was furious, pointed at Liu Zhang, and said with a red face: "You are shameless, you say it well, what troops are under my command, and I myself was held hostage by you, isn't it your puppet?" What's the difference with your big man's puppet emperor? ”
"Presumptuous." A Sichuan army general shouted.
Liu Zhang raised his hand to stop, and said to Latia: "Please speak with respect, my Han Emperor is not something that you foreigners can blaspheme, but if you are young and ignorant, it is the first time, and this king will not pursue it."
But this king still said that everything about you is free, the same as the power of the queen before, but you are not free, and your personal safety must be put in our hands.
If you want to think that this is a puppet, I also know that you are not satisfied, but you have no choice, with your cleverness, you should know that you are dangerous to us, if you let you go, you should be able to think of the disadvantages of our Sichuan army. ”
Liu Zhang really needs Latea's help, but if Latia is released in order to cooperate, Liu Zhang will definitely not do it, don't look at Latia being captured so easily this time, it is because Latia fell into an ambush carefully arranged by the sky, and the Sichuan army is just picking up a leak, and even so, if Liu Zhang didn't keep an eye on it, he would almost suffer a big loss.
If Lathia is really released, it will be a great threat to the Sichuan army, first of all, the five thousand cavalry, although it is only five thousand Qiang prisoners, but the lives of the five thousand Qiang people are pinched in the hands of Latia, these people are even more loyal than diehards, and their combat power is definitely not inferior to the elite Xiliang army.
And Liu Zhang has already inspected this cavalry with Latia as the pillar, and the equipment of this cavalry is not even comparable to the most elite Sichuan army, which is a full suit of Roman ring armor, short swords, and 5,000 Dawan horses, and dozens of sweat and blood horses worth thousands of gold.
This kind of cavalry defense, impact, that is extremely powerful.
Su Lan's archers dealt with ordinary cavalry, as long as the terrain was open and not surrounded and annihilated, they could annihilate the opponent's countless cavalry at the cost of almost zero casualties.
But against the cavalry of Upper Latia, Liu Zhang felt that the outcome was really unpredictable, first of all, the bantam horses of the Su Lan cavalry could not outrun the Xiliang horses, and the Xiliang horses were dwarfed by the Dawan horses.
With the impact of this cavalry, Su Lan has to rely on returning to his horse to win, and the pressure is definitely very high.
Coupled with the Roman ring armor of the whole body, after pulling down the mask, it is almost a full-body defense, even if the compound bow is extremely powerful, it will take a hundred meters to penetrate, a hundred meters, what is it for Dawan Ma?
If Su Lan's archers use return shots against this cavalry, if they don't control it well, the whole army will be wiped out.
In addition to this cavalry, Lathia was able to achieve hegemony, and there was also a religious identity of a witch god, of course, this was mainly to paralyze the people to facilitate the rule, and the reason why it could be regarded as a witch god was Latea's innate ability to magic.
In the battle of Yamaguchi, Liu Zhang saw Latia's ability, which can be said to have exceeded his imagination, and the King of Mulu was a scum in front of Latia.
Not to mention that the Mulu King can only control the training for many years, even if he controls the wild ones, he can't control such a large number.
There are a lot of poisonous substances such as snakes, scorpions, spiders, and centipedes in the Western Regions, and as far as Liu Zhang knows, Latia deliberately planted many poisonous insect seeds in the important cities she ruled.
There are so many poisonous insects in the first battle of Yamaguchi, if the Wusun army is replaced by the Sichuan army, the Sichuan army will definitely suffer heavy losses, although the Sichuan army is also equipped with medicine, but the medicine that can last for so long is only the king of Mulu has some, and that amount will definitely not equip the whole army.
The rest of the drugs are antidotes, and they are also detoxified after being bitten, so many poisons on the battlefield, how many medicines can you detoxify?
Wusun is also a country in the Western Regions, and it has been in contact with these things all the year round, which is much more professional than the Han army, and the Sichuan army's poison against Shanglatia is absolutely impossible to be the same ending as Wusun.
In other words, if Latia is let go, Liu Zhang will not be able to control this woman at all, and it is likely that she will be bitten upside down, Liu Zhang will not do such a thing.
Moreover, Liu Zhang absolutely does not want to form a time-consuming situation of three-legged support.
So even if Liu Zhang needs Latia's help, it is impossible to release him, and if Latia is really unwilling to cooperate, then he would rather meditate on countermeasures.
Because he followed Liu Zhang all the way a few years ago and saw how Liu Zhang dealt with Ma Chao's Xiliang Army and the Xiliang Coalition Army, Latia had a certain understanding of Liu Zhang, and looking at Liu Zhang's expression, she already knew that Liu Zhang's words had no room for bargaining.
Latia was angry in her heart, knowing that Liu Zhang had taken a fancy to all her power and was with her personally, and the magic was personal, as long as she controlled herself, she controlled the magic.
If you want to recruit snakes and scorpions that are not good for the Sichuan army, then the Sichuan army guards will kill themselves first, and if they die, what threat can those snakes and scorpions have. (To be continued......)
