Chapter 661: Some hats can't be worn

For the frightened ex-car masters. Ma Chao had already shown the methods of Hades before, and the next step was naturally to show the heart of the Bodhisattva.

He asked Long Zhihu to tell the former Cheshi lord that Jiaohe City was requisitioned by the Han army, and the Han army did not occupy the property of the people and the royal family in the city, and he could let the people of Cheshi enter the city in batches in the next month to take it away. In order to make up for the losses of the lord of the Cheshi State and the common people, the former Western Regions Changshi Mansion became the new capital of the former Cheshi State in the future, and Jiaohe City was garrisoned by the Han army in the future.

When the master of the Cheshi country heard this, he felt so sad in his heart, he really didn't know how to describe it. He said in his heart: You said earlier, if Jiaohe City can be exchanged for the feng shui treasure of the Western Regions Changshi Mansion, where can we resist, just move over and live happily!

Because he didn't dare to say this, Ma Chao couldn't explain to him: "You guys beat you this time, that must be suffered! First, this is the homework given to us by Master Taifu, and we must not only complete it, but also perform well; second, we can let Long Zhiyu open his eyes to this thing and the gang of Yanqi guys under him, and dare not have other thoughts in the future; third, we must also deter you, so that you will not be the first rat at both ends in the future, and secretly hook up with Wusun Guo." ”

Ma Chao successfully took the former Cheshi country here, and was worried about who would stay in Jiaohe City and how many people he would keep, when the Shadow Team sent Zhao Xing's urgent secret order: "Ma Dai led three thousand Xiliang cavalry to stay in Jiaohe City, and was fully responsible for defending against the invasion of Wusun and relocating the people of the former Cheshi country; Ma Chao and Ma Xiu immediately led the remaining two thousand troops to escort the former Cheshi lord and the people back to the Western Regions Changshi Mansion to join the army, and prepare to enter the customs from now on!"

When Ma Chao saw this order, he was immediately overjoyed, he knew that this time he was really going to fight a big battle.

Just when Ma Chao was marching with the lord of the Cheshi and the people, Fang Yue, who was originally temporarily stationed in Dunhuang County, also received an order from Zhao Xing: "Immediately lead four thousand reserve troops out of Yumen Pass to the direction of Jiaohe Ancient City, and complete the exchange of guards with Ma Dai who is stationed there!"

After Fang Yue saw Zhao Xing's handwritten letter sent by the shadow, although he had a thousand doubts in his heart, the veteran didn't say a word, and immediately ordered the soldiers in Dunhuang City to pack their bags and leave the Yumen Pass in a hurry as they did at the beginning.

On the way to the march, Fang Yue said to the four thousand reserve brothers who were originally demoralized: "After Lord Taifu left the Yumen Pass, he swept through the Western Regions, and now he has won Yanqi, Qiancheshi, and Shanguo. The governor of Guan Dadu led the army westward and completed the meeting with Lord Taifu, and now he is stationed in Qucheng, looking at the entire Western Regions!"

When the soldiers heard this, their morale was greatly boosted, and they no longer looked sluggish. Fang Yue's words were not groundless, he learned the whole story of Zhao Xing's layout calculation based on some information provided by the Shadow Members.

The Cheshi Country Lord and tens of thousands of people who came to the Western Regions Changshi Mansion were so frightened by the scene in front of them that they trembled. After the division of the Cheshi Kingdom, there were only more than 6,000 households and more than 40,000 people in the former Cheshi Kingdom, and the Han army and the soldiers who were evacuating in an orderly manner in front of them were no less than 50,000 troops. And the Han cavalry like the four hundred butchers led by Ma Dai passed in front of the former chariot master no less than four thousand.

The frightened Cheshi Guozhu, after several reminders from his family, looked up and saw a Han general about thirty years old coming in front of him, and the god-killing general who led the army to attack the former Cheshi stood behind him in a regular manner.

Long Zhihu, who was in charge of the message, said: "This general in front of you is the newly sealed King of Pingxi of the Han Dynasty, and all the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions will be ruled by him in the future!"

The former master of the car division hurriedly knelt down and saluted Zhao Xing, and Zhao Xing accepted it calmly.

Zhao Xing said to the former lord of the Cheshi: "In the future, you will be the people under my rule, and I will love you as I love the Han people, but the premise is that you must be honest and listen to me!"

The lord of the Cheshi didn't dare to get up, and replied tremblingly: "My king is mighty, the former Cheshi doesn't dare to have a half-heart!"

After appeasing the overly frightened Che Shiren, Zhao Xing immediately led 50,000 cavalry to leave the Changshi Mansion of the Western Regions, and marched towards Yumen Pass without stopping for a moment.

Since he had already used the title of "King of Pingxi" in advance, the title of Laoshizi of the Western Regions Governor's Mansion was thrown aside. Before leaving, he had renamed the place as Liwei City, which is homophonic to "Liwei", and the meaning is self-evident. The former Cheshi Country was also canceled from the country name, and the area where the former Cheshi Country was located was directly divided into Cheshi County, and the first Taishou was served by the veteran Fang Yue, who was about to arrive.

Although the imperial court did not know and would not be willing to crown Zhao Xing as the "King of Pingxi", before he came to the Western Regions, he secretly made gold seals, royal seals and other things to declare power. So when the panting Fang Yue met with Zhao Xing in the middle of the road and took the letter of appointment handed over by Zhao Xing, he didn't know for a while when the big man would have another "King of Pingxi".

The reason why Zhao Xing was in such a hurry took out the Golden Seal and Wang Xi who were equal to the conspirators in the rebellion, and he also blatantly appointed Fang Yue as the Taishou of Cheshi County, just because he was in a hurry to return to the Guannai to deal with a major matter.

This is a very important matter for the Jin Kingdom, and Zhao Xing has been waiting for a long time. He has absolute certainty and confidence, and this time he will definitely force the court to promise to give him the title of king, so it is nothing to take office in advance. Compared with the matter of self-proclaimed in advance, if Zhao Xing's next thing is known to the imperial court, he will be labeled as even more rebellious.

In addition to the green hat, Zhao Xing doesn't mind others putting a lot of hats on his head, even including "rebellious ministers and thieves, traitors, national thieves" and other hats that are obviously insulting, he will laugh down. But the hat that the court recently put on him was so weird that it was even a little unexpected for him.

Zhao Xingfei tried his best to draw troops from the direction of Bingzhou and Liangzhou, and even Guan Yu led the army out of Yumen Pass with great fanfare, to a large extent, to let the Huangfu Song father and son stationed in Chang'an do it. And before Huangfu Song's father and son sent troops to attack the Jin State or the Liang Kingdom, they must have to let the imperial court convict themselves of a crime, otherwise they would not have become a teacher.

According to Zhao Xing's speculation, the idea that the imperial court can fight now is nothing more than to force the Jin State to hand over Wei Yan and the more than 10,000 captured soldiers of the Northern Army, and the Jin State will definitely not agree. The imperial court then used this as an excuse to send troops to attack the Jin state, and the most vulnerable location of the Jin state happened to be Shangjun in the north of Chang'an.

Judging from the urgent information sent by the Shadow Members, Huangfu Song's father and son have already launched an attack in the direction of Shangjun by taking advantage of the lack of troops available in the direction of Liangguo. And Zhang Fei, who was far away in Yecheng, Jizhou, also took advantage of the sudden disappearance of the Montenegrin army on the frontal battlefield and launched an offensive in the Guangping area.

Zhang Fei's actions were obviously to cover Huangfu Song's western front, intending to attract troops from the Jin direction to support, resulting in insufficient troops sent to the western front for defense. And if Xu Huang is not fooled, then the eastern front will become the main battlefield, and Zhang Fei will take the opportunity to recover a large area of land in Jizhou.
