Chapter 204: Exquisite Ancient Country
Qin Ge took Wu Baishuang to Shicheng to make peace with Zhao Yun, and the Qin army on the border was not suitable to move, so he could only borrow troops from Shicheng again, and he led 10,000 Qin Lingyin soldiers, let Bai Qi lead 10,000 spearmen of the Tong Clan, let Wu Qi lead 10,000 hammer shield soldiers of the Shi Clan, and let Zhao Yun lead 10,000 cavalry of the Qiang Clan, a total of 30,000 troops were borrowed.

Such a lineup can be described as luxurious.
This mission doesn't seem difficult!
The three military representatives of Qin Ge's core were all dispatched!
In fact, it was not so easy, what Qin Ge had to do was not only to conquer the Ten Thousand Demon Caves, but also to take the Ten Thousand Demon Caves in the shortest possible time and at the lowest cost and quietly...... That's hard.
The Ten Thousand Demon Caves are located outside Dunhuang, probably the Hexi Corridor, the junction of the Western Regions and the Western Regions.
It is a land of demons in the vast desert, it has been entrenched here for eight hundred years, the countries of the Western Regions cannot go south, the Yue Clan Niu clan cannot go west, and the demon lair has long been indescribable, this is a country composed of demons!
The scale of the Yue's cavalry is so huge, even if there are millions of iron horsemen, they have not eliminated the Ten Thousand Demon Caves, although on the one hand, the Yue's peace is in the Hexi Prairie, and they have no interest in the desert Gobi in the Western Regions, but on the other hand, it also reflects the strong defense capability of the Ten Thousand Demon Caves.
Level B Difficulty!
Absolutely treat it with caution!
The CIA planned not to go through the Hexi Corridor, because tens of thousands of troops set out from the highlands, although they could enter the Biandu Pass to the north and reach Hexi, but let alone attack the Ten Thousand Demon Caves, I am afraid that before they reached the Ten Thousand Demon Caves, they were annihilated by the Yueshi cavalry that kept coming out.
There is only one way to attack the Ten Thousand Demon Caves.
From the plateau to the northwest to the Western Regions, from the Western Regions to the east back to the Hexi Corridor, to avoid the eyes and ears of the Yue Clan. The first problem to be solved in order for this plan to be carried out is to find a reliable route, and this route has now been found by the CIA.
Qin Ge set out from Shicheng with only ten days of grain and grass, and the army passed through a large salt lake and glacier, and then crossed the snowy mountains and snow valleys, advancing at full speed for several days, and finally gradually found greenery, the altitude was constantly decreasing, and the temperature was constantly rising.
"Your Majesty, according to the map, it's ahead!"
Zhao Yun held the gentian gun in his hand and quickly arrived in front of him.
Qin Ge and Qing's thoughts were connected, allowing Qing'er to move forward quickly.
When he climbed to the top of the mountain, his whole vision widened, and he saw a large meadow in the central hinterland surrounded by mountains, with scattered pastures and fields, and a large city in the middle.
The ancient farming city has great requirements for geographical location, and at the same time has very strict requirements for the terrain, so the city will generally be built in a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the city is in the middle of the mountains, and just holds the exit of the valley, there are several river tributaries interspersed, the pastures are wide, the fields are fertile, self-sufficient, it is a good place.
Wu Qi asked, "This is also a town of the Qiang people?"
Qin Ge shook his head: "No, this place is the junction of the Qiang Land and the Western Regions, this should be a small country belonging to the Western Regions. ”
Zhao Yun was very surprised, if this is a large tribe, it can be said that its population should be about the same as that of the Shicheng tribe, but if he is a country, then this country is too small.
"There are dozens of ancient countries in the Western Regions, and there are countless unknown small countries. ”
When Zhang Qian sent the Western Regions to the Western Regions for the second time, he had arrived at Wusun, a great power in the Western Regions at that time, and in the process, he sent his subordinates to visit all parts of the Western Regions, including a force of envoys, from the Western Regions through the mountains to the Qiang Land and the Western Regions at the intersection of the Mi Kingdom.
The location of the country is very special.
This country is just located in the middle of the Tianshan Mountains in the Western Regions and the Qilian Mountains in Hexi, the two major mountain systems are adversary, and there is a gap, this gap is one of the passages between the plateau and the Western Regions.
There is a biography of the country of Mi in the Book of Han, which briefly records the country of Humi, and its original text is probably like this: "The country of Humi, the king governs the city of Mi. Nine thousand two hundred and eighty miles to Chang'an, three thousand three hundred and forty households, twenty-four thousand mouths, and three thousand five hundred and forty victorious soldiers......"
Soon after, the kingdom of Humi was subsequently destroyed by the kingdom of refinement.
Since then, this ancient country has completely disappeared in the long river of history.
It can be seen from only the documentary records that the country is really a small country, the territory is very small, the capital is called Micheng, a total of 3,340 households, a population of 24,000 people, and the number of its army is only 3,540 people, but in this world, the population and scale of the country have increased correspondingly, but the scale of Micheng is the level of Shicheng.
Stone City is a city actually established by Kuafu, although it is a foreign city-state, but it is magnificent.
In contrast, most of the buildings in Micheng are made of wood, and the level is very bad, almost like a slum.
Zhao Yun frowned and said, "Since it is a foreign city, I'm afraid there will be trouble, do you want to send troops to attack directly?"
Qin Ge showed a smile and said, "The CIA is not an empty salary, this little problem has been solved." ”
Zhao Yun showed a very surprised expression, even if the country is a small country, the population should reach about 300,000, of which there are at least more than 150,000 people in Micheng, how many people are there in the CIA, how can it be possible to occupy the country?
At this time, Hu Mi Guo found the troops that appeared in the south, only to see that when he looked at it from a distance, Wang Cheng opened the huge wooden gate, and a sound of bone horns sounded from inside, Zhao Yun was even more surprised when he saw this, they had a full 40,000 troops, and now the gate of Mi City was opened, if the troops took the means of attack, this small country could be destroyed in an instant.
"Let's go!"
Qin Ge led the way into the valley and passed through the fields of the fertile pasture.
At this moment, the narrow streets of Micheng were full of people on both sides, most of them were the people of Micheng who came out to see the excitement, and the soldiers of Micheng were neatly arranged in two rows, and each soldier held a bone horn in his hand and blew a very rhythmic whining.
Qin Getun soldiers outside the city, put away the green ox, and walked into the city.
Bai Qi, Wu Qi, Zhao Yun, and the three generals dismounted one after another, not leaving an inch, and followed closely behind.
Four Chinese people walked into a city in the ancient Western Regions, and the facial features and skin color of the Humi people were similar to those of Huaxia, but they had very significant characteristics, that is, the arms of the Humi people were particularly thick and long, which was about twice that of the Huaxia people, and probably because of the relationship between the long arms and the good shooting, the main weapons of the Humi soldiers were all longbows.
The Archer is well-known in the Western Regions.
The country's army is all archers.
The pre-Qin Qi book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" described many strange countries, and their people were different from each other, which were roughly divided into: people, aliens, and monsters.
"Human country" is a normal human country, and "alien" means alien, which generally refers to foreign countries other than the Chinese people. As for the spirits or demon clans, the Xiaoyang and water demons that Qin Ge had seen all belonged to this category!
The people of Humi belong to the country of Inhumans.
They are not Huaxia, nor are they humans.
The "Classic of Mountains and Seas" describes a country called the Long-Armed Country, and the people of this country have long arms, so they are called Long-armed People, which is very consistent with the Humi people encountered.
An old man walked out slowly and said in a somewhat jerky Chinese language: "I am the king of Humi, welcome friends from the plateau, please follow me into the palace." ”
Why did the king greet him personally?
Bai Qi and Zhao Yun didn't see the clues.
Wu Qi stared at him and found something.
Qin Ge walked into the so-called royal palace, and the guards left and right by King Humi, and other idlers and others all repulsed.
He suddenly bowed deeply to Qin Ge, and even his broken Huaxia became fluent at this time.
"Your Majesty!"
Zhao Yun and Bai Qi were both stunned, how could King Humi know Qin Ge, even if he knew Qin Ge's identity, he didn't need to luggage, this was his territory after all!
Qin Ge nodded: "Diao Chan, it's really hard for you!"
King Hu Mi smiled, shook his body, and showed the prototype, it was none other than Diao Chan!
It turned out that the king of Humi had already been dropped, and Diao Chan had become the appearance of King Humi, so as to control this small country, as for the guards on the left and right, they actually turned a blind eye to this, and it must have been controlled by demon law.
Diao Chan's combat power is not necessarily the strongest among the powerhouses of the same level among the demon cultivators and demon clans, but Diao Chan's ability to change and bewitch is an unparalleled existence in the entire Chinese demon world, otherwise how could he be Qin Ge's ace spy agent on the spot? Qin Ge let Diao Chan take charge of the CIA, and it was precisely because he took a fancy to Diao Chan's potential.
Diao Chan puffed up his chest and said to Qin Ge: "This kingdom has been controlled by the CIA!"
The three generals finally understood why His Majesty wanted to establish the CIA, and the secret service force would be the force used to solve the affairs of the state in Article 3 in addition to diplomatic and military operations.
"Well done!" Qin Ge asked, "What about the real king?"
"That guy is a frog at the bottom of the well, he doesn't know Huaxia, and he doesn't cooperate, so he has been locked up by me. Diao Chan paused at this point and continued: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the CIA will find a way to make him honest." ”
Qin Ge didn't ask much, "How is the situation in the Ten Thousand Demon Cave now?"
Diao Chan replied, "The route from the country of Humi to the Ten Thousand Demon Caves has been determined, but the distance is quite long, and there will be some troubles on the way. ”
"What's the trouble?"
"There is a sworn enemy called the Elite Country, and this Elite Country is much stronger than the Elite Country, and with the current capabilities of the CIA, there is no way to control the country by controlling the Harmony means. Therefore, the departure of our troops is likely to attract the attention of the Elite Peerless Country, and in order to ensure that the attack on the Ten Thousand Demon Caves is unimpeded, this Elite Peerless Country is an obstacle that has to be eradicated."
"What??!"
Qin Ge immediately thought of a certain tomb robbery novel he had read in his previous life, and when he saw the Exquisite Ancient Kingdom, he was very impressed!
