Chapter 466: Believers
"I'll talk about anything else when this is settled, I can't give you another reply right now."
The ambiguous words made King Loulan misunderstood, and he thought he agreed, and immediately said that he would cooperate.
Even he mistakenly thought that if Loulan cooperated hard, Great Wei would work hard to help him suppress the Holy Sect.
In fact, as long as Da Wei does not intervene sideways, it is not a big problem to deal with the Holy Sect with internal royal power, and I am afraid that Shangshu and others in the military department will see that the Loulan Holy Girl is young and beautiful, and will be bewitched by her, thus delaying his plan.
Finally, the king sent people to set up a banquet to invite Yuan Wanshan and the military department Shangshu, after the meal, the plan was officially launched, announcing that the two commanders of the Great Wei military camp had been assassinated, and they were currently being rescued, and their lives and deaths were unknown.
In an instant, the Great Wei military camp was in a state of emergency preparedness and asked Loulan to give an explanation.
The people of Loulan were scared to death, and they didn't dare to take a step on the street, they all knew what it would be like to offend Da Wei.
At the same time, other countries are also paying attention to this matter, and they cannot understand who dares to assassinate the people of Great Wei.
Could it be that Loulan's own lawbreakers deliberately want to provoke trouble between the two countries? It seems unlikely.
For a while, there was a lot of speculation.
Gao Changguo was the country that was most concerned about this matter, thinking that Great Wei and Loulan would definitely have a war.
The king of Loulan sent troops to conduct various searches, and a few days later, he lived up to expectations and caught the murderer, who was from Gaochang!
The man immediately confessed that it was an order passed to him by the king of Gaochang to assassinate the Wei people.
For a while, all the countries in the Western Regions were stunned and couldn't believe it, but when they thought about it, they felt reasonable.
Gao Chang and Da Wei have a grudge, it was Da Wei who helped Loulan disrupt Gao Chang's plan, and some time ago he fought with Gao Chang and occupied a border city in Gaochang, so Gao Chang couldn't swallow this breath, so he killed the little commander and was discouraged.
Everyone thinks so about this, but Gao Chang shouted that he was wronged and issued a statement as soon as possible, saying that it was not they who did it.
People don't believe this statement at all, and they think that Gao Changguo is afraid of retaliation, so he said a few words in a high-sounding manner.
I don't know whether it was intentional or spontaneous, thousands of people in Loulan City marched with white cloth strips, saying that they wanted Loulan to crusade against Gaochang and give an explanation to Dawei.
In the front, the Great Wei also sent troops to protect Loulan and quell the civil strife, so Loulan could not let the small commander of the Great Wei be killed.
The people once stepped into the palace, which caused the king of Loulan to have a headache, and the effect of sending troops to suppress it was not great, but there were more and more people, and it became more and more intense.
There was no way, King Loulan could only announce it to the outside world, saying that Gao Chang should show sincerity, otherwise he would join forces with Dawei to seek justice.
Takakura was greatly wronged, a pure backstabber, of course he was not happy, and no less than 100 copies of the notice were issued, saying that he had no reason to do this.
It's a pity that who believes this post, no one believes it!
There are also people who privately post a reply to the blood and tears of Gaochang's notice, and read it aloud during the parade.
Of course, not all countries are ignorant, and some feel that Gaochang was framed.
Loulan Wangcheng.
The king urgently convened a meeting with the ministers to announce his dissatisfaction with Gaochang and prepare to seek justice from the Great Wei Alliance.
It's the first time everyone has seen such a strong King of Loulan, what the hell, is this the cowardly king from before?
Similarly, the people of the Western Regions straightened their waists for the first time, felt their dignity, and shouted Long live the king! Loulan is finally about to rise.
In fact, how did they know that the king they were going to rise to was nodding his head in the palace at the moment flattering and cowardly...
"General Yuan, Lord Shangshu, have already done what you two ordered. This Xialou Lan can be regarded as officially forming an alliance with Da Wei, right? ”
Loulan is 108,000 miles away from Dawei, but the big tree of Dawei is a powerful backer.
Two days ago, they analyzed the current situation, the Great Wei took the border city of Gaochang, and they didn't plan to return it at all.
Although the Great Wei country is far away from Loulan, the Gaochang border is close to Loulan!
As long as there is the assistance of Great Wei, it is also a huge support, and with that strength, Loulan will become the master among the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, surpassing Gaochang and getting rid of the title of a weak country.
But before that, we must first hold the power firmly in our hands, and we can't share it equally with the Holy Sect, only in this way will Loulan prosper.
"Don't worry, I've already sent eight hundred miles to report back to Your Majesty urgently. As you know, we are here to quell the civil strife in Loulan, so we are here to ask for a decree.
But rest assured, Your Majesty also needs to have an alliance and will not refuse your request. ”
Bingbu Shangshu said with a smile.
It's really, no kidding.
Li Xingchen sent troops to help, not for nothing, but to make a gap in the Western Regions.
There are so many countries in the Western Regions, and it is impossible to do without an alliance, so when he sent troops to come, he secretly mentioned this matter to Yuan Wanshan and others.
However, it is the Holy Maiden of Loulan who has to be supported, not the king.
As long as there is the support of the saint, there will be no problem with Loulan.
"That's good." King Loulan laughed.
Not only Great Wei, but also Loulan itself has also discussed, and it is agreed that a strong backer is needed, and Great Wei is the only country.
"Then send troops, crusade against Gaochang and make them pay for their stupidity."
I've been preparing for so long, and I've been staying in this place where birds don't for a while, and it's time to open the gap to disintegrate the Western Regions.
Gaochang, as a checkpoint to the Great Wei and Loulan, should be regarded as the first battle of disintegration.
"I have prepared three thousand iron horses, all elites, ready to set off at any time."
That being said, in fact, half of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, and only some of them are elite.
Fortunately, Yuan Wanshan and the others didn't care, they had their own soldiers, and they just wanted to use Loulan as an excuse to have a reasonable reason to send troops.
After that, the two left with 3,000 Loulan soldiers and horses, returned to the Great Wei military camp, and handed them over to the commanders for scattered training.
After dealing with some things in the army, the two of them secretly went to the Holy Sect.
"Holy Maiden, everything is going on, tomorrow our army will start a war with Gaochang, Loulan is afraid that there is danger, you have to be careful." The military department Shangshu said kindly.
The ambiguous words of the Loulan Holy Maiden made them misunderstand that she was Li Xingchen's woman, so they specially ran to remind her on the eve of the war.
It's not that he is afraid that Gao Chang will enter Loulan and threaten the safety of the Loulan Holy Maiden, but that the king of Loulan has not been at ease recently, and he is afraid that they will fight on the front line, and he will suppress the Holy Sect in the rear.
If something happens to the saintess, Li Xingchen will be held responsible, and no one can afford to pay.
The Holy Maiden of Loulan smiled, "Don't worry, the sect is also fully prepared, and has recruited nearly 10,000 Holy Sect troops, although there is no systematic training and no particularly great combat effectiveness, but all of them are loyal believers." ”
