Although Li Yuan's voice was not loud, his tone was as calm as possible, the history of the survival and development of these foreign peoples was just a record in the history textbook for him in the past, and now, they are living companions of this era.

The Qin generals who listened all had serious expressions, and what Li Yuan said was like pushing open a window for them, they thought that they had stood at the peak of Shijie, but at the moment when they suddenly turned around, they found that there were higher and more dangerous peaks outside the window waiting for them to conquer and climb.

Li Zuoche was thoughtful.

This resourceful descendant of the famous general of Zhao suddenly found that his past knowledge was so naïve and insignificant in the face of the huge and unfamiliar amount of information.

Cao Xin's mouth opened wide, his eyes stared at disbelief, and he muttered to himself.

The great powers of the West, the powerful infantry phalanx, and the stone-throwing carts and pikemen have many similarities with the Xiaoyue soldiers under his command, but what does this prove? On the unknown battlefield, whether the cavalry of the Qin State is powerful or the infantry of the West is more powerful, no one can know the answer.

The collision of Eastern and Western civilizations.

Which one prevails is a historical puzzle.

Civilizations have their own merits.

Strong enemies are coming one after another, and whether they advance or retreat will test these young people who have no hesitation on the battlefield in the future.

Luo Jia, Li Zuoche, Cao Xin, Ji Xin and other generals were speechless for a long time, their expressions were solemn, after fading the initial fanaticism, they found that for the Qin army on the way to the west, the future opponent was not weak, but a more powerful and difficult than the other, compared with it. The Huns, who tried their best to flee westward, were nothing.

"Ahem!" Li Yuan coughed heavily, and pulled the generals who were immersed in imagination back to reality: "Okay, the generals of Great Qin, cheer up, look up, at the end of the west, there is a broader land, there are more difficult enemies to deal with, there is the wealth and glory that we dream of, but wherever we can reach." It's my Great Qin's iron hoof, are you ready? ”

Li Yuan shouted.

This question is like thunder.

Pulled Luo Jia and the others back from the shock of knowing the unknown Shijie at the beginning.

"Great Qin is invincible!"

"Bixia Shenwu!"

The heartfelt shouts made Li Yuan feel a sense of satisfaction as a teacher for the first time, and more importantly, through this explanation, the minds of the generals of the Qin army were unified, before, they just blindly followed Li Yuan's footsteps. Today, many of them have their own goals.

"Bixia, you give the order. No matter what the task, I, Cao Xin, will never frown. The five-eyed one-eyed shouted at the first.

"Lao Cao, what are you calling? You're not the only one here? Before Cao Xin's words fell, another battle among the generals was triggered.

"All silent, I order-!" Li Yuanchang took a breath and said loudly: "Luo Jia listens to the order." Your cavalry immediately set out and marched along the gallop road to Tianchi in the Ili Valley, where the pastures were full of grass. If Helianbi's subordinates want to rest, the place they choose must be there! ”

"Cao Xin and Ji Xin, your two men and horses are the left and right flanks of the cavalry, receiving supplies from the vanguard along the way, and at the same time you must protect the safety of the grain route to prevent the destruction of the Huns and thieves."

"No."

"No!

Cao and Ji glanced at each other excitedly, and each received the order.

Then, Li Yuan held a tiger talisman in his hand and solemnly handed it into Li Zuoche's hand: "General Li, your department is the rear team, and I will deploy the Jiangdong Army to you." ”

Long expeditions.

The most important thing is that in addition to the sharp spears of the vanguard troops, the strength of the shields of the rear team is also equally important, and the Jiangdong army may be deficient in attack power, but in terms of defense, Li Yuan believes that Huan Chu will not let him down.

Li Zuoche and Huan Chu nodded in agreement, the first battle was very important, Li Yuan took the strong attack of the Luo Jiabu cavalry as the vanguard, which was understandable, and with the expansion of the scope of the war, they did not worry about not having a chance to show their skills.

After issuing a series of orders, Li Yuan stood up suddenly, threw the horsewhip in his hand on the sand table, and said loudly: "Gentlemen, the eldest husband was born in this world, and he should carry a three-foot sword and behead the enemy, so that he can live up to his good life." Will you join this king in sweeping away the barbarians and strengthening my prestige. ”

"No!"

"Great Qin, Great Qin!"

In the king's tent, the morale of the generals of the Qin army was once again led to a high point by Li Yuan's words, which is the spirit of the king, and this is the self-confidence that the Qin people have accumulated over the years.

The army marched in unison.

Luo Jia, who was determined to be thousands of miles away, rushed to the front line for the first time, and after he was excited, after making an appointment with Cao Xin and Ji Xin, he led more than 30,000 elite horsemen of his headquarters to travel more than 600 miles in one day and night, and went to the Ili Valley where Wusun was located.

――。

Downstream of the Ili waters.

The rich snow-capped meadows make the pastures lush in spring and summer, the long nutritious pastures grow day by day, and the juice in the grass stalks and leaves is tender and the water comes out of the water, which is a paradise for the cattle and horses of the Huns who came from the ice fields and pastures further north.

Defeat Great Xia.

Occupy Usun.

Helian Bi, who annexed the Huyan Evil Department and led himself as a big single Yu, was full of spirits. In fact, he did not expect that the tentative attack of the conquest of Great Xia, which he did not care about, would allow the Xiongnu tribe to get sufficient supplies on the eve of continuing to advance westward.

Bactria and Wusun.

Over the years, enough nutrients have been drawn from the silk arteries, and these nutrients are now all cheaper for Helian Bi and his tribe. After a short rest in the pastures here in Tianchi, the Huns could easily embark on the long journey to the west, and their conquest would leave the Qin army far behind.

As long as he imagined the scene where Li Yuan and his huge and powerful army could only follow behind him and eat ashes, Helian Bi couldn't help but smile.

From Chang'an to the Ili Valley, if you march normally, it will take a month, even if the Qin army advances quickly, it will take more than 20 days.

The successive victories made Helian Bi gradually lose his coolness.

During the reign of Mao Dun, the Huns lurked in the shadows of Chang'an, selling court officials, opening shops, and establishing intelligence networks, which allowed the Huns to grasp the changes in the Qin State in a timely manner.

However, after Li Yuan took power, the crackdown on the enemy's intermediation was unprecedentedly strengthened, not only in the secret of the Xiongnu, but also in the Chu and Han dynasties, and it was difficult to avoid the purge storm in Chang'an.

The long-term loss of the enemy's intelligence made the Huns only rely on "hearsay" from the merchants to guess, and Helianbi's laxity came from this.

In fact, the speed of the Qin army's westward expedition far exceeded Helianbi's imagination, so when the Qin army's black Daxu appeared on the east bank of Tianchi, the Huns were panicked for a while, and they almost couldn't even complete the basic queue formation.

Tianchi (Sailim Lake).

It is a mountain lake formed by the infusion of Ili water flowing from the depths of the Pamir Plateau, and the iceberg snow water flows all the way to the northeast and into the cold water lake, where the trilogy of the Xiongnu and the Qin began here.

On the shallows by the lake, Da Dan Yu Helian Bi wore a bloody red cloak, two pheasant tail feathers on his head, and a sweaty horse riding down, which looked like a fiery red from a distance, eye-catching and unusual. The conquest of Wusun gave the Huns an extremely valuable strategic material of war horses.

The only thing that made Helian Bi a little dissatisfied was that the weapon in his hand was still a bronze war spear, although its sharpness had not been reduced, but in terms of toughness, it was not as good as the iron weapons of the Qin army. The upgrading of weapons marks the strength and weakness of a country's and a nation's productive forces and production, and in this regard, the Huns who are moving uncertainly cannot be compared with the Central Plains people who live in groups.

If it was just one Luo Jia and his 30,000 horses, Helian Bi would not have taken it seriously. But unfortunately, just when he decided to deal a severe blow to the vanguard of the Qin army, he heard the news that Li Zhongxiang's Western Regions Coalition army on the southern road from Shule had been killed.

The two Qin armies converged, a full 80,000 cavalry, such an elite division, not a rabble like Wusun Daxia, Helian Bi was as big as a fight for a while.

On the other side, the Qin army marched in a column on foot, and in the center of the battle array was Li Zhongxiang, the famous Western Regions Divine Arrow General in the Qin army.

In the Western Regions, there are the names of Xiao Li and Da Li.

Da Li refers to Li Yuan, the Emperor of Shenwu, and Xiao Li refers to Li Zhongxiang, who has guarded the Western Regions for more than ten years, pinched more than 30 small city-states together, and trained the first strong army in the Western Regions.

In the past few years, Li Zhongxiang has not been idle, on the oasis of the Tarim Plateau, he has left his footprints everywhere, externally he resisted the Moon Protector and Diqiang, and internally he ruthlessly conquest those countries that were resentful of the Qin State, the most unlucky of which was Khotan.

This big country on the Southern Silk Road, because of the competition with Loulan for dominance, was actually destroyed by Li Zhongxiang three times in a row. The old king of Khotan and the old king of Loulan have always been on good terms, but when the old king of Loulan was seriously ill, he tried to unite more than ten countries on the Southern Silk Road to stand on his own.

As a result, unfortunately, although the old King Loulan failed to survive, the King of Khotan was also killed by Li Zhongxiang, and the whole army was annihilated in the area of Hetianshui. Today, Khotan has become a vassal state of Loulan, and the new king of Loulan is Li Zhongxiang's brother-in-law An Tuqi. (To be continued......)
