Chapter 896: Western Attack
Liaodong is so big, it is impossible to swallow it in a short time.
The Xianbei people also seem to be dragging their feet.
Yang Zheng knew that they were waiting for winter to come and freeze Zhongyuan Haoqiang to death.
But this time it was clear that it was going to disappoint them.
What the Xianbei people could think of, the military department of Daqin had already thought of it, and the powerful people had also thought of it, and Ma Long had already prepared for it, and truckloads of briquettes were sent to Liaodong.
Hebei lacks everything, but the briquettes are inexhaustible.
It's still a hot summer, and the heroes are already preparing for winter.
The sheepskin jackets and cotton jackets in Guanzhong were frantically transported to Youzhou, and the people of the government directly made a lot of money, which directly stimulated a wave of Guanzhong's economy.
The financial resources of the wealthy families exceeded Yang Zheng's imagination.
Even if some Xiaohao is not rich enough, Yang Zheng is also very considerate to provide loan services, which can be repaid in ten-year installments and five-year installments.
There is nothing else in Liaodong, and the resources are extremely rich.
Timber, medicinal herbs, animal skins, war horses, iron ore, etc., you name it.
With the ability of the heroes to scrape the ground, they are not afraid that they will not be able to do it in the future.
As long as it is properly run, war is not mere attrition.
In this battle, as long as it can stand its ground, Daqin will win half of it.
The Xianbei people have some strength, but this strength is not worth mentioning in the face of a unified Central Plains Empire.
The war in the east tends to stabilize, Yang Zheng no longer invests energy, Ma Long's strategy of defending as an offensive is basically unsolvable, and the fate of the Xianbei people can only be consumed alive and dead.
The Great Qin Empire's gaze turned to the Western Regions.
The nations have been mobilized, and their eyes have turned to the west of Congling.
The richest places in the Western Regions are just a few pieces, Gaochang, the Seven River Basin, and the Hezhong region.
Together, everyone went their own way, attacked each other, and now they are all part of the Chinese civilization and have a common enemy.
Even if there is no common enemy, the wealth of Hezhong and Tianzhu is enough to arouse their interest.
70,000 allied troops gathered in Shule, with Yin Chun, the governor of Gaochang as the main general, and 30,000 troops gathered in Shaye, with Yang Yi, the king of Xia, as the main general.
As the soldiers pointed out, the countries of the river trembled.
At this time, after Kang Juguo parted ways with the Bada people, he was already weak.
The Dawan Kingdom was repaired by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty four hundred years ago and became a vassal state of the Han Dynasty.
As soon as the two countries saw that Daqin was unstoppable, they offered beautiful women and good horses, and sent the prince to Daqin as a hostage.
"Your Majesty the Great Emperor, my Dawan Kingdom will always be a subject country of Great Qin!"
"Your Majesty, Kang Juguo has never betrayed Daqin, it was a misunderstanding back then......"
Yang Zheng did not forget that when the Xia Kingdom was first established, Kangju, Dawan, and Qiuci joined forces to resist Daqin.
Now one by one they are docile.
"I also believe that it was a misunderstanding back then, since it was a misunderstanding, let your king personally come to Daqin to make amends to me!" Seeing the former enemy groveling in front of him, Yang Zheng couldn't be more happy in his heart.
The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty.
Dawan is located in the Green Ridge Basin, with huge geographical value and condescending to the river.
If the Chinese civilization wants to advance westward, Dawan is a very good strategic highland.
Kangju is located in the north of the river, and in front of Xia Guo, he will definitely not be able to stay.
"We are willing to join Daqin and attack the Great Moon Clan and the Sassanids together!" The envoy learned the Han rites and bowed his hand indecently.
Defeated by the Xiongnu, the Dayue clan moved west to the Hezhong region, conquered the Bactria region, established the once-prosperous Kushan Empire, defeated the Central Asian overlord Anxi Empire, and went south to Tianzhu. Conquer the Ganges region.
However, the Sassanids rose strongly, and in the first year of Emperor Qinglong of Wei Ming, they defeated the Yueshi people, and the Kushan Empire retreated to the Ganges River valley to survive.
Yue's, Kangju, and Dawan are all regarded as half a foot into the Chinese circle, and since the Han and Wei dynasties, they have paid tribute year after year.
Attacking the river is also in their interests.
The Sassanids are the real invaders.
Yang Zheng tapped his fingers on the eucalyptus, to be honest, it is not difficult to defeat Dawan and Kangju, but if you want to completely annex them, it is very difficult.
After all, he didn't do it with the strength of the Han Dynasty back then.
The river is a big stage for all ethnic groups, east, west, north and south, and almost every force that rises will touch this place.
The cost of ruling is simply too great.
Therefore, it is the most reasonable way to raise a few good dogs to act as pawns, and Dahan also does this.
The envoy looked at Yang Zheng nervously and cautiously, the fate of their country depended on the next sentence.
"Why should I believe you?"
The two envoys breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, "We are willing to take out a city for the garrison of Great Qin, set up Xuanyi Mansion in various places, establish Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, and always be a subject country of Great Qin." ”
"Looks like you've done a good job." What Yang Zheng wanted, they gave it.
"Your Majesty need not doubt our sincerity."
When it comes to this, the dogs will jump over the wall when they are in a hurry, and if they press too hard, they will fall into the arms of the Sassanids.
The great man once said that politics is to make more of one's own people and fewer enemies.
Hezhong and Tianzhu are so big that they can accommodate everyone's interests.
The accession of the two countries can also increase the strength of the western expedition.
"I hope you don't forget your promise today!" Yang Zheng nodded in agreement.
"Your Majesty Emperor Xie!" Both knelt down at the same time, excited.
The two wars were actually taken advantage of, and the loss of Great Qin's national strength was minimized.
Sometimes political means are easier to achieve than military means.
Regardless of victory or defeat in this battle, it is doomed that the Western Regions will be completely integrated into the Chinese civilization circle.
Yang Zheng was in an extremely happy mood, "The prince can lead the princes of the two kingdoms to visit Daxing and see the prosperity of my Daqin." ”
"The retainers take the order." Yang Xu arched his hand.
Today's Daxing has a bit of the atmosphere of all countries coming to court.
The city is becoming more and more prosperous, there are more and more people, and the sad look of worrying about tomorrow on the faces of the people in the past is gone, replaced by self-confidence and atmosphere.
The rule of inaction makes the people full of vitality and the rapid development of all walks of life.
From all over the world, nobles from all over the world come from far and wide.
The population of Daxing has long crossed the threshold of one million, and even the surrounding cities have prospered.
The only thing that made Yang Zheng a little unhappy was that the Wa Kingdom and Sanhan also sent envoys to pay tribute.
The lesson of the farmer and the serpent cannot but be learned.
I don't have the energy to care about these little shrimps now, so I can only wait to get them later.
Not all the small surrounding countries were respectful to Great Qin.
The Linyi State in the south raised 70,000 troops, known as 200,000, attacked Jiaozhou, killed the people, and broke through the counties and killed the chief officials in the Eastern Wu period.
Yang Ji, the assassin of Jiaozhou, led 10,000 Qin troops to the south, but there was a sudden epidemic in the army.
Lin Yi took the opportunity to attack, and the Qin army's original nine troops were insufficient, and they were defeated by thieves, with heavy casualties.
Lin Yiguo's morale was greatly boosted, his ambition was extremely expansionary, and he sharpened his knife and prepared to sweep Jiaoguang and annex Nanzhong.
However, the Guangzhou assassin Shi Tao Huang turned the tide, with the elite composed of 8,000 Lingnan disciples, half-way surprise attack on the Linyi army, killing nearly 10,000 enemies, capturing more than 30,000 people, chasing the dead and chasing the north, round Mao Jiong, advancing by land and water, killing into the Linyi country, pulling out 7,000 families and returning.
