------------ Introduction

"Wusun Dakun Miguia connects the countries of the Western Regions and prepares to deal with Beifu." Zeng Hua looked at the information in his hand carefully, and Wang Meng, Che Yin, Mao Muzhi, Pu, Liu Gu, Rongye Wang and others sitting around the long round table all looked at Zeng Hua and said nothing. They had already read this information when they were in the meeting, and only Zeng Hua, who had just rushed from Bacheng, was the last to know.

"In June of the twelfth year of Yonghe, in the name of his thirtieth birthday, the king and important ministers of the Western Regions invited the kings and important ministers of the Western Regions to gather in Chigu Castle, and held secret talks to form an alliance to deal with Beifu together. Everyone elected Gui A as the leader of the alliance, swore a blood oath to the gods, and fought against my Beifu together. Liu Gu and Rong Yewang, the left and right members of the Privy Council, were the conveners of the meeting, and immediately began to tell the information in detail after Zeng Hua read the brief intelligence overview.

"Present at the meeting were the Cheshi King Nongqi, the Yuli King Baitou, the Yanqi King Long'an, the Khotanese King Damu, the GUiz King Xiangze, the Shule King Nanmi, and the Ronglu Kingdom, the Humi Kingdom, the Qule Kingdom, the Pishan Kingdom, the Weisu Kingdom, the Mountain Kingdom, the Gumo Kingdom, the Wensu Kingdom, the Weitou Kingdom, the China, the Shache Kingdom, the Exhaust Shi Kingdom, the Qusha Kingdom, the Xiye Kingdom, the Yinai Kingdom, the Manli Kingdom, the Yiruo Kingdom, the Jiling Kingdom, the Drug Donation Country, the Xiuxiu Kingdom, the Qin Kingdom, and the Mi Kingdom, the Xihe Mi Kingdom, the Shan Huan Kingdom, the Bilu Kingdom, the Pulu Kingdom, The kings or important ministers of the twenty-seven city-states, including the Ugan Kingdom, signed and drew the pledge on the covenant. Thought it was a league. Liu Gu said slowly.

"From this point of view, except for the countries of Tianshan Nandonglu such as the Land Shan Kingdom, the Zhiguo Kingdom, the Xiaowan Kingdom, the JiNg Absolute Kingdom, and the Loulan Kingdom, which are controlled by our Qinghai generals, most of the countries in the Western Regions have joined Wusun's anti-Beifu Alliance. It seems that this Wusun Da Kunmi's ambition and means are extraordinary! Zeng Hua nodded and continued, "Cunxi, you can introduce the situation of Wusun. Since it is the leader of the anti-Beifu alliance, we must focus on understanding it. ”

King Rongye answered, and stood up with a stack of materials: "At the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty (the beginning of the 2nd century BC), Wusun and the Yue clan were nomadic in the Qilian Mountains of Dunhuang in present-day Liangzhou. It is bordered by the Xiongnu to the north. According to the "Hanshu = <. His son Hunt Jiaomi was just born, and was adopted by the Xiongnu Mao Dunshan (209 ~ 174 BC) to raise the * people, and later was able to revive the homeland with the help of the Xiongnu. In the third year of Emperor Wen of the former Han Dynasty (176 BC), Mao Dunshan attacked Yueshi. Defeated, the Yueshi were forced to move westward to the Yilieshui (present-day Ili River) valley, and drove out the Cypriot tribes who had been nomadic in the area for a long time. Later, the old Shangdan Yu joined forces with Wusun Kunmo to hunt arrogantly, and then raised troops to attack the Yueshi who moved to Yilieshui. The Yue clan was defeated, so they followed in the footsteps of the people and moved south to the territory of Great Xia. But there are a few who remain in the area. After the Cypriots and most of the Yueshi went south, Wusun gave up the homeland of Dunhuang and Qilian, moved to the Yilieshui Basin and stayed with the Cypriots, the Yueshi people were nomadic together, and established the Wusun Kingdom. ”

"Hunting arrogance is grateful to the Huns for saving their own kindness, but they don't want to crouch under the elbows of the Huns for a long time. Therefore, when Zhang Qian, a doctor from Taizhong, was ordered by Emperor Wu of the former Han Dynasty to suggest that he return to his hometown of Dunhuang and Qilianjian in order to deal with the Xiongnu together with the Han, he resolutely refused. However, after he learned that the former Han State was rich and strong, he was willing to marry the Han. You have to rely on Han's help to respect yourself. The former Han Dynasty once used Princess Xijun and Princess Xie Wu with Wusun Kunmi. And Wusun Kunmi has always taken the Xiongnu princess as his left wife. ”

"In the first year of Ganlu (53 B.C.), the son of the woman was slaughtered as a little Kunmi. And sent Chang Hui to lead the army to Tun Chigu, and divided the subordinates and boundaries of the large and small Kunmi: the big Kunmi got more than 60,000 households, and the small Kunmi got more than 40,000. Since then, Wusun has been divided into two kings, large and small, and ruled by dividing the territory. As a result, the two are often infighting and chaotic. In the end of the Han Dynasty, the Han Emperor and the Western Regions Protector tried their best to resolve the difficulties for Wusun, trying to keep it from splitting and civil strife. ”

Speaking of this, King Rong Ye couldn't help but show a disdainful tone, and everyone had a similar expression, and it seemed that they were all a little unaccustomed to the selfless "internationalism" JiNg god of the Later Han Dynasty (Eastern Han Dynasty). has been with Zeng Hua for so long, and everyone has been more or less infected with the ugly "modern politics" utilitarianism.

"Today, Wusun Dakun Migui A is majestic, the city is far-reaching, and he is known for his great ambitions. He first offered more beautiful nV treasures to envelop Xiao Kun Mi Bu Jia, and flattered him. Then set up an ambush in the wild hunting ground and assassinate Bu Jia. Bujiazi was young, and Gui'a was regent in the name of his false father, acting as the power of Xiao Kunmi. In less than two years, Gui'a's power was consolidated, and his young son Yu Yilieshui drowned, so he unified Wusun and Kunmi. However, over the years, due to the war between the big and small Kunmi, the population of Wusun has long declined from more than 600,000 in the heyday of Emperor Wu of the former Han Dynasty to more than 400,000 now, with more than 100,000 soldiers and horses. ”

King Rongye's information is very detailed, and it seems that the Beifu caravan has been very effective in the Western Regions over the years.

"Gui'a has many in-laws with the countries of the Western Regions. The Cheshi King Nongqi is his cousin, and the Yuli King Baitou is his cousin, Yanqi Kingdom

Rather than being a brother-in-law, the king of Khotan, Damu, was his cousin, the king of gUiz was his brother-in-law, and the king of Shule was his brother-in-law, and the relationship between the rest of the countries was omitted. ”

After listening to King Rongye's introduction, Zeng Hua smiled: "It seems that this Gui Ah Ding wants to dominate the Western Regions, and he has some means, you see that he used the method of marriage to form a huge spider web in the Western Regions." However, this is also normal, in order to protect themselves, the countries in the Western Regions are all married to each other, it seems that our Beifu wants to enter the Western Regions, which is very resistant. ”

"General. Ladies and gentlemen, our Privy Council has made several deductions based on the situation in the Western Regions, and we have found that the countries of the Western Regions will have several reactions when the army of our Northern Mansion presses the border. As soon as Liu Gu's words fell, the secretary and staff officer next to him immediately opened the curtain in the middle of the lobby, revealing a huge map, which included the western regions of Jinshan, Liangzhou, and Qinghai General Districts. Liu Gu stepped forward, took a long rod from a secretary, and pointed to the map. He spoke.

"The first possibility. That is, the countries of the Western Regions are fighting their own wars. Each defending the city, this situation is only one in five possible. The Western Regions has a vast territory and a large population, and the strength of the whole region cannot be underestimated. However, there are also a large number of countries, each with a few cities as a country, and the strength of a country is not strong, and it is impossible to confront the western expeditionary army of our northern province. The countries of the Western Regions are aware of this. That's why they formed an alliance with Wusun. ”

"The second possibility is that the Wusun army is the mainstay, and various countries send troops to form a coalition army. Then they took advantage of their geographical advantages to occupy dangerous terrain and fight a decisive battle with our army, trying to defeat our army on the front line such as Tiemen Pass and Tianshan Pass before our army penetrated into the Western Regions, or to reject our army with dangerous strength. Wait for our army to retreat in the face of difficulties. They should be very clear. The greatest difficulty for our army is that the road is long, the grain and grass are unsustainable, and even if we pour all our strength into transporting grain, we will not be able to support it for long. Besides, it's not yet time for us to be able to run the Western Front at full capacity. This one is probably X the largest. More than one-half. ”

"The third possibility is that the countries of the Western Regions will first lead our army deep with a small victory, and their troops will not only clear the field and fortified walls when they retreat step by step, but also send mobile troops and horses to disturb our grain routes. When our army penetrates deep into the hinterland of the Western Regions, when its momentum is like the end of a strong crossbow, we will ambush our troops in all directions and destroy our army in turmoil. This may be one-third of X, because it requires the countries of the Western Regions to make huge sacrifices, I wonder if Gui'a, as the leader of the alliance, has the ability and courage? ”

"Has the Privy Council worked out a strategy and tactics accordingly?" Zeng Hua asked.

"Yes," Liu Gu replied in a loud voice, then turned his head and nodded to King Rongye.

King Rongye, who had been waiting on the side for a long time, hurriedly stepped forward and took Liu Gu's long rod.

"First of all, we have an ally in the Western Regions, and that is the Yue Banbu. The ancestors of Yue were originally the tribe of the Xiongnu Beidanyu. for the after

The Han chariot cavalry general Dou Xian chased, the north was in Du Jinshan, and the west went to Kangju, and his subordinates who were weak and could not go to the north of gUiz, stayed in the south of Jinshan, and the northeast of Wusun. The place is thousands of miles, and there are more than 200,000 people. The people of Liangzhou called 'Shan Yu Wang', referring to their tribal leaders. The customs and language are the same as those of Gao Che, and its people are clean in Wusun, Mobei and other tribes. Vulgar hair cut to the eyebrows, to Daigo to coat it, then shiny, three baths a day, and then eat. General Jinshan's Lawyers Association had a very good relationship with his ministry when he crisscrossed the Jinshan region, and later he was encircled by General Jinshan, and his subordinates had admired the Central Plains for a long time, so they had a deep friendship. The Yueban Department and the Wusun Department have been old enemies for many years, fighting in the north of the Western Regions. Therefore, once my northern mansion raises troops, Yue will definitely respond. ”

"Of course, we also have General Qinghai's subordinates. They have long occupied and controlled Haitou, Loulan, Shanshan and other countries, which can be regarded as laying the nail for our northern province in the Western Regions and South Road. Based on the above, our Privy Council has formulated three sets of operational plans. ”

King Rongye pointed to the map with a long rod and began to talk endlessly: "The first set, my Beifu military ......"

The people present were all important ministers of the Northern Mansion, and JiNg was in the military strategy, so after listening to King Rongye's story, he couldn't help but nod his head.

After King Rongye finished speaking, Zeng Hua was silent for a while and then added: "According to last year's plan, Lu Zhen will attack the difficult water area in the northeast with Yang Su and others in the spring of this year. This is our plan to cut off the wings of Yan Guo, and we can't move it. Therefore, Lu Zhen and the others couldn't move, and when they came back from Nanshui, they stayed in Mobei instead of Jiang Nan and others. ”

"There is also the former Rouran Khan Bati, it is said that he has become more and more nourished in the bones of the deed, and shouts every day to counterattack Mobei and recover Rouran. We have been working hard to run Mobei for several years, and we finally have a little stable situation, and there can be no mistakes. And he has never followed the deed bone of submission and Bati, and he is always a thorn in Mobei's back, which must be pulled out. So last year, the Privy Council had already drawn up a battle plan to go up the sword water and eliminate the Qigu and Bati. I thought about it, this task is the most suitable for Wolf Mountain General Ye Lixun, and he has already given him a combat order, and he should start to act at the beginning of spring this year. ”

"General, what about the east? According to intelligence, the Kanto region has been dark cHa0 turbulent in the past two years. At this time, Wang Meng continued.

"Dark cHa0 surging?" Zeng Hua said meaningfully, "It's indeed dark cHa0 surging, I'm afraid it's just an opportunity." But Mr. Jingluo should be able to handle it. ”

Hearing this, Wang Meng and the other four giants smiled at each other and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Zeng Hua clapped his hands and said: "Okay, the yamen of the various divisions have begun to move, and we are ready to go west!" ”
