Chapter 806: The Western Regions Protectorate Enters the Customs

The capital of the Western Regions, Luntai City, Huo An came back with a few generals.

"It's another expedition to Dawan, fortunately, I have invaded Dawan twice in a row, and I am familiar with the road."

Huo An was assigned to a copy of Li Guangli's expedition to Dawan during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

For Huo An, who was familiar with the terrain of the Western Regions and had Huo Qubing as a general, it was not difficult, so it was easy to complete.

"Lord, the eldest lady is back."

Huo An returned to Luntai City, and Wang Xuance reminded Huo An.

"My sister, I don't know how I'm doing in Summer City?"

Huo An met Huo Qing who had returned from Xia City.

"Brother!"

"Qingqing, did Chutian treat you badly? If he dares to snub you, then I will not participate in this northern war. Maybe he will be on Lao Qin's side. ”

Huo An also attaches great importance to this sister, after all, he is trapped in "Lord", Huo An is such a relative, and he also gave up two S-class characteristics to Huo Qing.

"Brother, I came back to tell you about the Great War in the North. Chu Tian wants to borrow troops from you and attack Xiliang. ”

"The sister who got married is like water spilled out, I didn't expect it to be Chutian's business as soon as I opened my mouth, and I didn't care about my safety...... There is no problem in sending troops to Xiliang. However, before intervening in the Northern War, I need to complete the deployment of the Dawan Kingdom. The Han Empire needed to have a nail in the coffin in Central Asia, and this was for the sake of the future, and it had to be guarded against. Intervening in the Great War in the North meant making a trade-off and giving up some of its interests in Central Asia. A scout on my side learned that the Ilkhanate Tuolei, Temujin's most talented military son, had intended to send generals such as Subutai and Kublai Khan to attack the Kushan Empire. ”

Huo An knew that the soldiers and horses of the Western Regions Protectorate would not be able to stop the brutal expansion of Ogedei's forces in Central Asia.

The advantage of the soldiers and horses of the Western Regions Protectorate is to unify the Han Empire as soon as possible, and the specific gains and losses depend on how to weigh them.

The Anshi Rebellion broke out in the Middle Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty dispatched soldiers and horses from the Anxi Protectorate to the Guanqin King, coupled with the rise of Tubo, which caused the Tang Dynasty to almost lose control of Central Asia and the Tianshan Mountains.

"Whether to enter the customs or not, such a decision, brother, you and Chutian will just decide, I just came to supervise."

"Hmph, sure enough, it's a girl outward. I'm already planning to enter the customs, not only Xiliang, but Nanban also needs my troops. Liu Bei, this guy, actually wants to pacify the Nanban. Nanban is your sister-in-law's territory, how can Liu Bei occupy it. ”

Luntai City, the Western Regions Protectorate, and Xu Fengnian's generals returned from all over the country one after another.

The civil war of the Han Empire has swept through the Western Regions, and even the Western Regions are not peaceful.

"The lord has decided to enter the customs, we can't stay out of the matter, the civil war of the Han Empire may have to be decided. Just don't know where we're going to be assigned? Liangzhou, Liaodong, Nanban or stay in Dawan and the Western Regions? ”

Huo Quzhi, Chen Tang, Gao Xianzhi, Wang Zhongsi, Ban Chao and others gathered.

Huo An unconsciously made up an amazing team.

If in the densely populated Central Plains, Huo An can also become a great prince competing for the north, but Huo An has always been unable to get along with Central Asia, wanting to conquer Central Asia and expand the territory for the Han Empire.

The reputation of the loser in the Central Plains is not as good as opening up the territory and expanding the territory to go down in history.

"I'm going to fight back to Xiliang, those three people who betrayed me must make a break with them."

Xu Fengnian is still haunted by his betrayal.

"Customs?"

Huo Quzhi couldn't help but look to the east.

This group of generals has long fought in the Western Regions and Central Asia.

This time, Huo An is going to enter the customs.

"Everybody, wait for orders."

Huo An brought Huo Qing over.

The generals of the Western Regions Protectorate were solemn, and they were finally about to enter the customs.

"Xu Fengnian is in charge of attacking Liangzhou, and I will arrange Huo Qubing for you. Ban Chao and Gao Xianzhi guarded the Great Wan Kingdom, and Wang Xuance and Chen Tang guarded the Western Regions Protectorate. ”

"Guarding the Great Wan Kingdom? It's really boring. ”

Gao Xianzhi couldn't help but be depressed when he heard that Huo An had deployed himself in the Great Wan Kingdom.

Entering the customs to fight is a great military feat.

"The threat in Central Asia is huge, and it is not easy to hold the Great Wan Kingdom, which can also be regarded as a credit. In the future, the annexation of Central Asia will also require the teleportation array of the Great Wan Kingdom as a springboard. ”

Huo An paid a lot of price, in order to fight for the Dawan Kingdom, if the Dawan Kingdom is lost, the next time he will have to re-cross the Green Ridge and attack the Dawan Kingdom.

Counting the number of dungeons, Huo An had already made three expeditions to Dawan in a row, and he didn't have the energy to make a fourth expedition.

The Pamirs were now a common thing for him, and even if he were to lead his army over the Alps in the future, Hoan would probably find it easy.

Wang Xuance asked, "The lord stays in the capital to protect the mansion, or goes to the Guannei?" ”

"Nanban, defeat Liu Bei first. Liu Bei dared to attack Nanban, and this time he wanted to make him suffer. ”

The Protectorate of the Western Regions once again recruited troops and horses, and obtained millions of cattle, horses and sheep from the Dawan Kingdom, among which there were tens of thousands of good sweat and blood horses, and the rest of the war horses were even more huge.

"Sweat and blood horses, priority is given to recruiting imperial hussars, secondly, recruiting the Western Regions Protectors, Anxi Protectors, and thirdly, the servant army."

According to the elite level of each legion, Huo An successively distributed excellent war horses.

"Xu Fengnian formed four corps, Ma Teng and Han Sui formed an army, Li Hu and Dugu Xin formed an army, Yang Shihou formed an army, Huo Qubing and Zhao Ponu formed an army, each army formed 40,000 cavalry, a total of 160,000 cavalry, to attack Liangzhou."

"I led 80,000 cavalry into the Southern Barbarians to support Mu Ke."

The Western Regions Protectorate sent a total of 240,000 troops!

When King Wusun heard that Huo An was going to enter the customs to fight, Mao recommended himself: "The cavalry of Wusun Kingdom is willing to serve as the vanguard and pacify the world for the king!" ”

"The Wusun Kingdom has been of great help to me by guarding the Ili River Valley. Γ–gedei will not be indifferent to my entry into the customs, he may sneak into the Ili River Valley. Keeping the Ili River Valley is the best help for me. ”

"Yes."

King Wusun was undoubtedly a reliable subordinate, having twice proven his loyalty through counter-plots.

A group of cavalry entered the teleportation array and headed for Dunhuang.

Dunhuang County and Yumen Pass are still under Xu Fengnian's control.

"Why is there a transfer of soldiers and horses in Luntai City? Could it be that after the end of the expedition to Dawan Kingdom, the Western Regions Protectorate will still make a big move? ”

The people of Luntai City noticed the unusualness of the Western Regions Protectorate.

A large number of soldiers, horses, grains and grass were transported to the teleportation array, and the originally expensive teleportation array costs were almost completely ignored by the Western Regions Protectorate, so there was only one possibility, and the Western Regions Protectorate would break out again.

It's just that who is not necessarily targeted?

The scouts deployed by Lao Qin and Wokotai in Luntai City brought the movements of the Western Regions Protectorate back to their respective forces as soon as possible.

"The Protectorate of the Western Regions is also going to participate in the war, and this time it is really a big war within the Han Empire, involving all the princes."

Lao Qin obtained a trait, and he was originally slightly confident, but the Western Regions Protectorate suddenly sent troops, which made Lao Qin's brows furrow.

Last time, Chutian arranged for Zhang Dao to invade Liangzhou, delaying a lot of troops of the Qin army.

After Zhang Dao was repulsed, Chu Tian found Xu Fengnian, who was currently in the Western Regions Protectorate, to re-emerge from the mountain to block Lao Qin.

Xu Fengnian's threat is no less than Zhang Dao's, and even greater than Zhang Dao's threat.

Zhang Dao's peasant army was afraid of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, but Xu Fengnian was not afraid of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, it was better to say that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry owned by the Qin Army now was just the remaining cavalry that Xu Fengnian played.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, Yizhou Mu, Shu Guogong, and General Zuo Liu Xuande are waiting outside the palace to receive you."

Xun Yu walked into the hall and reported to the headache of Old Qin.

"Liu Xuande, he is finally here, and this king has been waiting for him for a long time."

Soon, the high-spirited Liu Bei came to the palace.

Liu Bei has been tossing and turning for ten years, and finally has a stable foothold, his power is on the rise, and the situation is very good.

"This time I came to Xianyang City, in addition to meeting the Son of Heaven, Xuande had something to ask for."

Lao Qin looked at Liu Bei, who was already familiar with him, this person's willpower was simply extraordinary.

It is not so much that Liu Bei's success is benevolence and righteousness, but rather that it is tenacious willpower to the extreme: "Xuande is okay to say." ”

"If Your Excellency wants Yizhou to join the Xianyang Alliance, you must promise Xuande to return power to the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty and restore the Han Dynasty, instead of following Dong Zhuo's example and blackmailing the Son of Heaven to order the princes."

"It is not easy to restore the power of Han Tianzi, Han Tianzi is not capable of dealing with troubled times. After defeating the Xia King and unifying the Han Empire, I will return the power to the Han Emperor. ”

"A word?"

"It's a deal!"

"So what do I need to do?"

"Drag Zhang Dao in Hanzhong and Mu Ke in Nanban. The last time we tested each other, they couldn't wait to jump out and fight against me, and they were too much of a threat to me. Both of them are the Taishou of Yizhou, and now as the new Yizhou pastor, it is your duty to quell the rebellion of the two Taishou. This is an edict from the Son of Heaven ordering you to pacify Yizhou, and the holy decree cannot be disobeyed. ”

Lao Qin threw the holy decree to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei easily caught it, and the holy decree still had a great effect on Liu Bei.

In any case, Liu Bei had to consider the consequences of rejecting the holy decree of the Emperor of Han.

In the name of Kuangfu Han Dynasty, there are pros and cons to chasing the Central Plains.

"Hanzhong and Nanban have a lot of populations, if you can recover these two places, it is exactly the result I want, I promise you."

"Do I need help?"

"No need, I can pacify Hanzhong and Nanban by myself."

"It's Liu Xuande, I want to hear about your plan."

Liu Bei consulted with Lao Qin again, and then left.

Lao Qin looked at Liu Bei's departure and knew that Liu Bei's rise might affect the civil war of the Han Empire.

Li Si, the chief of the Qin Palace, saw that Lao Qin let Liu Bei leave, so he suggested to Lao Qin: "The lord can detain Liu Bei in Xianyang City and try to annex his subordinates." Liu Bei Xiaoxiong also let him leave safely, which is tantamount to letting the tiger return to the mountain. ”

"Li Si, Chu Zimou has already begun to deploy the next big war, we don't have time to subdue Liu Bei, for our own use, we can only use Liu Bei, only his charm can command the current Yizhou Legion. At this time, except for Wang Defa, the princes of Jiaozhou, the princes of the other twelve states have all intervened in the civil war. ”
