Although the Western Regions are large, there are also many countries.

The three northern kingdoms are actually considered brothers-in-law, the royal families of various countries have intermarried with each other, and now the southern countries have bowed their heads to the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, and the rest do not express their positions, and those small countries that have been beaten to the destruction of the country are their examples.

On the first day of the ninth month, a fast horse galloped on dry ground, and the rolling weeds rolled on the ground along with the gravel in the hot wind, blowing from under the horse's hooves to the other side.

Farther afield, the majestic snow-capped mountains accumulate perennial snow and roll over the horizon.

Located in the middle of the Daisetsuzan Mountains, along the mountain range is the Yelan Province, which is a dense field with dense and orderly vine trellis outside the rock-carved castle.

The grapes of Yelan Country have abundant sunshine and sweet water, and are famous for their trade routes in the Western Regions.

Entering the city gate along the official road paved with gravel, the soldiers of Yelan Kingdom were mostly white, resisting the strong heat, wearing a head-wrapping robe, leather armor inside, and most of the weapons were spears and scimitars.

Her face was covered with a scarf, and judging by her body shape and exposed eyes, she was a woman. Most of them have deep eyes and high noses, and their hair hidden in the ring-headed veil hat is slightly earthy yellow, which is very different from the women of the Central Plains.

The buildings in the city are mostly made of rocks and bones, and the loess is compacted for meat, and the roofs are flat, and many wooden poles are erected on them, which are hung with clothes or grapes and air-dried meat.

Many women can be seen on the streets, while men do household chores at home, and occasionally a few men with children on their backs can be seen arguing with each other on the street.

Go along the long street, to the end, is the magnificent imperial city, extending inward, is a huge palace community, the walls are white, the top of the palace is mostly the original top, wearing a thin gauze robe of the civil and military ministers are discussing the national policy, the voice is crisp, or soft.

And the first one, is a golden king's golden seat, on which the woman sitting, the posture is slender, the royal robe on the body has a strong Western Regions color, with silk as the main material, and the rest of the materials are mostly decorated with Western Regions characteristics.

Yelan is a country in the Western Regions dominated by women.

The country's women are not as weak as they might think, they are agile on the battlefield, and they are as brave and ferocious as men.

As the king of Yelan, Itas is also a woman, she wears a gold crown studded with emeralds, and she is in high spirits to discuss the current predicament with her ministers, who are also women.

"The ambition of the Emperor of Xia is very big, very big, his army is as fierce as the devil in the desert, and they are withdrawing this time because of lack of time. But next year will definitely come back again, and I will get through this with you and all the subjects of Yelan Kingdom.

If necessary, I hope to break off the alliance with Jukan and Ugo, although we have had hatred and feuds before, but in the face of a strong enemy, I hope to give up these gaps, unite against a strong enemy, and keep our country. ”

Below, the men and women in the palace were women, many of them young women, who were as valiant and warlike as men, and who supported the king's words.

Itas was also satisfied with their answers.

"Actually, you don't need to panic, the number of Xia country's troops is not large, they have defeated many countries in the southern and middle roads of the Western Regions, but those are extremely small countries, and some small countries do not have as many people as our army."

With everyone's support, Itas puts on a confident smile behind the veil, making her beauty even more glamorous.

"The army of the Xia State is not so terrible, I believe that as long as the three kingdoms are united, they will definitely be able to repel the soldiers and horses of the Xia State and crush the greedy ambitions of the emperor of the Xia Kingdom......"

……

While discussing the state of affairs in the palace.

A huge cavalry appeared in the Gobi more than a hundred miles southwest of Yelan Kingdom, and every cavalry running was covered with gravel.

After some more travel, the cavalry gradually split into two groups.

The horse running at the front slowed down, the red helmet swayed in the wind, and then the young general Le Ma, who was wearing two crotch armor and a red cloak on horseback, turned his head to look at the other figure that had separated.

"General Ma, let's separate here, each of us will march on a hurry, and before leaving the Western Regions, give the three kingdoms in the north an eye medicine, and tell them that we are not here with etiquette, but with a sword!"

Huo Quzhi pulled out his Han sword on horseback and looked north, "...... Target the south of Yelan Country, attack a wave, and then return to the main force to return to the east! ”

Ha ha!

Ma Chao, who has a cold temperament, originally only revered his ancestor Ma Fubo, but in the past few months, he has followed Huo Quai's illness to gallop thousands of miles in the Western Regions.

The young general in front of him became more and more admired.

is not only the high spirit of the other party, but also the use of cavalry changeable tactics, it is indeed true that he wanted to return east before, but he also took the opportunity to retreat and return to the south of Yelan Kingdom, not seeking to attack the city, just to knock it out when leaving.

Ma Chao laughed loudly and turned his horse, and after giving the order, one man and one horse galloped away, and soon the cavalry who carried the order blew the horn along the way.

Two groups of cavalry, turned into two sharp swords, from south to north, straight into the southern region of Yelan Kingdom.

The sun was shining brightly, the fields between the roads were busy with the peasants doing their work, and a little further away was a vineyard erected in another field.

In the midst of peace, the busy farmers in the wheat fields heard the roaring sound, and when they raised their heads vigilantly, there were countless flying sand and dust in the Gobi in the distance.

In the dust, there is a dense rush of figures, with the power to bulldoze everything.

The sudden sound of war rang out.

The people who were busy in the vast fields looked up, and the two cavalry of four thousand in total burst out with a savage cry, and rushed into the wheat fields and vineyards like a torrent.

Pieces of crops fell under the churning horses' hooves, and when a Yelan country in the front of the front reacted from a brief stunned look, the oncoming Feiqiang rode out of the blade and slashed at his neck, and his head and body rolled twice in the wheat field.

The four thousand cavalry were magnificent, and instantly swept through the surrounding fields and vineyards, and the dense corpses were paved all the way with the iron hooves.

……

The beacon fire rose, and the sudden battle was conveyed to Yelan City one by one, but it had not yet reached the city.

The first thing to come was the news that the Xia State conquered the Japanese in the East China Sea, and the whole country was wiped out.

Itas, who was originally in the main hall and talking to the ministers, had a confident smile on his face.

"Above the East China Sea? What kind of widows, all wiped out by the Ju clan? She asked again, somewhat incredulous.

The messenger had brought the news back from the border, and the person who delivered the news over there had indeed said so, and she could only nod her head to the queen to confirm.

Hiss~~

In the main hall, there was a sound of inhalation.

It's not that they are afraid of how powerful the soldiers and horses of the Xia Kingdom are, but when they heard that the other party was sending troops to attack the Western Regions, they were also fighting against some Japanese pirates in the East China Sea.

War on two fronts......

For a while, Itas and the civil and military forces in the palace were a little skeptical that the Three Kingdoms Alliance on their side could resist the Xia Kingdom.

If you can't resist it, you may follow in the footsteps of those would-be robbers and the Ju clan will be wiped out.

Itas summoned the messenger a little closer, and inquired a lot, and learned that there were hundreds of thousands of pirates, scattered on several large islands in the East China Sea, and many ships.

was also beaten and retreated, and in the end, an extraterrestrial star fell, smashing the capital of the Japanese into powder.

Itas listened to some of such fantastical words, but he didn't believe them all, after all, the meteorite falling from the sky was pure exaggeration.

"War or ......"

She sat on the golden throne and whispered when a hurried figure outside had already rushed into the palace on horseback, and was stopped by the guards outside the palace.

After a hurried exchange of words, the guards escorted him up the stairs and pushed the door open for her.

The man hurried into the main hall and knelt on the ground.

"Queen Itas......" The messenger hurriedly opened his mouth.

Itas's heart thumped a little, and with a bad premonition, she leaned forward slightly, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on outside?!" ”

"The cavalry of the Xia people suddenly appeared in the south, and the war is urgent!"

Itas hurriedly left the Golden Throne and walked down the royal steps, originally she wanted to ask something, but suddenly stopped again, and was in the eyes of everyone's puzzled eyes.

She whispered: "Forget the matter of uniting Ugo Li and Jukan...... Consult with them and surrender the Xia Kingdom, we can't win. ”

Soon after, the three northern regions of the Western Regions, together with the central and southern countries of the Western Regions that had surrendered, formed a delegation of envoys to worship the Son of Heaven and went to Yanjing in the Xia Kingdom.

At the same time, Su Chen's return team had already entered the boundary of Rongzhou, and he met with several side branch disciples of the Su family who were busy working in Qingchuan County, and continued to move forward.

Looking in the northwest direction for a while, Su Chen suddenly whispered, "It's almost time to Ding'an, right?" ”

Dian Wei nodded.

On the ancestral coffin, Su Chen was stunned for a moment before he spoke again.

"I want to go and pay homage to wish justice."
