In early September, Han Xin was the first to return to Xianyang, and two days later, Wu Jian also led his army to Xianyang.

Upper Forest Garden.

One hundred and ninety-seven people stood neatly in the training ground, their eyes like torches, and the equipment on their bodies could be described as truly armed to the teeth.

Each person is equipped with a short spear, a light crossbow, a mountain knife, a long knife diagonally on the back, and the outermost side is a backpack in the style of a backpack, wearing a short robe on the upper body, pants on the lower body, and even the shoes are redesigned by Yujin, which is very suitable for mountaineering and marching.

As for the alcohol, bandages, blankets made of cotton, flints, ropes, etc., all the equipment for survival in the wilderness and special operations is readily available.

I nodded in satisfaction, waved my hand, and said, "Sit down." ”

Everyone was a little excited to see me for the first time, and they didn't know how to react for a while.

Wu Jian has been with me for the longest time, and he knows very well that he can't give orders at this time.

Han Xin seemed to have grown a lot since the last time he called for karma, and when he saw that Wu Jian didn't speak, he wisely chose to shut up.

Seeing that everyone looked at each other and none of them dared to sit down, I smiled again and said, "Sit down." ”

As he spoke, he sat down on the ground.

Seeing this, everyone no longer hesitated, bowed down and thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

Then he sat down cross-legged.

I looked at Han Xin and Wu Jian with interest.

"What? Are all the bandits out? Let's talk about it, Wu Jian, you come first. ”

Wu Jian arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, although there are twenty-eight counties in the area of the minister's subdivision, it includes stable and wealthy counties such as Neishi, Shangdang, and Sanchuan, so there are not many bandits, and the minister's 100 people only pulled out forty-five bandits, exterminated more than 1,000 bandits, and killed two people in battle, both of which were casualties when they were not familiar with special operations in the early stage. ”

I nodded and looked at Han Xin, "It's your turn." ”

Han Xin smiled and arched his hand: "There are only twenty counties in the minister, but he pulled out forty-nine bandit villages, suppressed 1,500 bandits, and killed one in battle, which was caused by falling off the cliff by mistake. ”

I complimented, "It seems that Han Xin is slightly better, but you guys are doing a good job." ”

Wu Jian smiled and clenched his fist at Han Xin: "General Han is really brave and good at fighting. ”

"Concession and concession."

"Han Shin." I took out an edict from my bosom: "It's yours." ”

Han Xin respectfully accepted the edict, opened it and looked at it carefully, and said in surprise: "Your Majesty, didn't you say that the person who won should lead the special forces?" Why did he return to the Western Regions? ”

I said lightly, "What? Don't want to go back? ”

Han Xin hurriedly said: "Follow Your Majesty's order!" The minister is just ......"

I smiled and explained: "Meng Tian led 30,000 troops in Qinli County, and those people in Loulan seem to have no objections, but I have to guard against it, it is too close to Hexi Weaving, once there are rebels and thieves, occupying the surroundings of Hexi Weaving and Youze, it is a very serious loss for Daqin, so Meng Tian can't move, but 30,000 people are useless there." ”

I stared into his eyes: "So you take this edict to go to Zhang Han, transfer 20,000 people from Meng Tian, and garrison them in the area of Green Ridge." ”

Han Xin was a little puzzled: "But in addition to General Meng's 30,000 people, isn't there also General Wang's 40,000 people in Weixi County?" ”

"Wang Jin's 40,000 people must not be moved lightly." I said slowly: "His 40,000 people are the Dinghai Divine Needle of the Western Regions, and in addition to guarding against the four counties of Hujiao, he also has to guard against Kangju and other Western countries. What you need to do is also very simple, beware of green ridges and expensive frosts. ”

Wu Jian had a lot of friends in Xianyang, and when he heard this, he frowned and said, "Your Majesty, does Guishuang have any plans?" ”

I glanced at him, nodded, and said, "Yes, although I don't want to deal with them, but business still has to be done, and I have to get by on face, but if I can't get what they want in business, I'm afraid sooner or later I'll meet each other." ”

Han Xin didn't say anything more, and said with a serious face: "The minister obeys the order!" It will live up to His Majesty's expectations. ”

I smiled, hoping that this year's travel around would make him realize my good intentions, and if something like this happened again, I am afraid he would never have a chance again.

I turned my head to look at Wu Jian: "What do you think?" ”

Wu Jian did not hesitate at all: "Obey Your Majesty's orders!" ”

"I wanted you to go back to the grasslands, but it's enough to have a seal there." I smiled and said, "But there is a place for you, go to Longxi." ”

Wu Jian was a little puzzled: "Longxi is the old land of Great Qin, and it is the foundation of my Great Qin, and it has always been stable and ......."

Wu Jian was a little apprehensive in his heart, I had something to say before they left Xianyang, and the second one went to the Great Wall to retire, and now when I heard that I was going to let him go to Longxi, my heart instantly cooled.

I naturally saw through his careful thinking, and said with a smile: "Although Longxi is stable, have you carefully looked at the map of Daqin?" ”

Wu Jian frowned and thought about it carefully, and hesitated: "Forgive the ministers for being stupid, the territory of Great Qin runs across the four seas, and it seems to be ......"

Then he suddenly said: "Your Majesty is talking about Kunlun?" ”

I nodded: "Kunlun is located on the plateau, and the Yaqiang people there still live a life of Ru Mao drinking blood, and I have not paid attention to it before, just because there is neither output nor population, which is a drag to Great Qin. But now that I've decided to recuperate, it's best to take this opportunity to incorporate Kunlun into the Great Qin Territory. ”

"But as Your Majesty said, Daqin can't get anything there, so why spend money and food to take it there?"

Instead of answering him, I asked, "How much do you know about astronomy and geography?" ”

"Uh......" Wu Jian said embarrassedly: "The minister can't understand this way......"

"Need to learn." "If you're good at astronomy and geography, you know how much climate change and environmental change are affecting human civilization," I explained. The reason why the Yaqiang people failed to develop civilization was because the climate of Kunlun was cold, which was not suitable for growing crops, and naturally could not support an excessive population.

But what if one day Kunlun has a warm climate and can feed a country of 400,000 people? They were condescending to the Great Qin, and although they would also feel unwell when they entered the plain, the Qin army would be in danger of entering the plateau, and they would have to face their threat at that time. ”

Wu Jian nodded as if he didn't understand, and then said, "The minister understands, the minister is willing to go!" ”

"Good. But as I said, the Achants don't even have an army, but the primitives, you know, are a bit of a hassle to rule them. ”

I admonished, "So you need to take advantage of it!" Dada is a good choice object, Xiqiang originally originated from Kunlun, the strength of the Dada Department has also been divided into two, there will be no threat to Daqin, you will go to Dada first after you arrive in Longxi, let him find a way to help you conquer the Yaqiang people. ”

"The minister understands, but I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money and food......"

I shook my head: "It's not something you think about, I'll tell Zhang Han to do it." ”

"Yes!"
