Chapter 193: Military Heart is available
Being able to tie the countries of the Western Regions to his chariot, Wei Xuan was of course happy to see it, so he agreed with the envoys of the countries to meet at the Green Ridge, and there was no limit to the number of troops sent by each country. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Green Ridge is located in the southwest of the entire Western Regions, on the Pamir Plateau. There are two important mountain passes in the area of Green Ridge. One is the Uzberi Pass, and out of the Uzberi Pass is Dawan. There is also a Tulu Gart Pass, and out of the Tulu Gart Pass is Wusun. The northwest of Dawan is Kangju, and the southwest is Guishan.
Dawan and Wusun are two of the most powerful countries in the Western Regions. Wusun had always submitted to the Han Dynasty, and this time he also sent an envoy to Gumo. And Dawan didn't take Dahan in his eyes earlier, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops to capture Guishan City, the capital of Dawan, in order to obtain Dawan's sweat and blood. Later, Guishan became stronger and stronger, and Dawan and Kangju were forced to submit to Guishan. It wasn't until three years ago that Dawan got rid of Guishuang's control, but he didn't accept Dahan's control anymore.
After Wei Xuan led his army to arrive at the Green Ridge, while waiting for the arrival of the armies of the Western Regions, he sent an envoy to Guishan City to summon Yuanzhong, the king of Dawan, to meet him, and at the same time ordered the construction of a city at the source of the Kyzyl River between the Uzberi Pass and the Tulu Gart Pass, which was named Green Ridge City. Wei Xuan's goal was to conquer Kushan, Kangju, and rest in peace until Rome, which were far from the center of the Han Dynasty, and he needed to use the Green Mountains as a base for advancement.
......
Two days later, the armies of the Western Regions countries arrived one after another, some sending 3,000 troops, some sending 5,000 troops, ranging from more to less, a total of 50,000 people. Wei Xuan ordered it to form a battalion and handed it over to the command of the king of Shule, called the Western Regions Alliance.
After another day, the envoy sent to Dawan came back and cried: "Dawan King Yuanzhong no longer wants to be a vassal to Dahan, and he also cut off the ears of his subordinates, and made disrespectful remarks. It is said that if the prince dares to pass through the Uzberi Pass, he will make the prince die without a place to be buried. ”
Wei Xuan sneered: "This king wants to march from there to see how he can do this!"
Since Ban Chao put down the rebellion in the Western Regions, both sides of the Uzberi Pass have been included in the jurisdiction of the Western Regions Protectorate, which is not so important. Coupled with the limited garrison of the Han in the Western Regions, this dangerous mountain pass actually fell into the hands of Dawan. Dawan has only a thousand troops stationed here, but there is a lot of husband in charge, and there is a momentum that is not open, which is also the confidence of Yuan Zhong to refuse Wei Xuan's summons.
Although the terrain of the Uzberi Pass is steep, the generals of the Chu army still do not pay attention to it, and they are eager to try it one by one, and they have asked for the battle.
Wei Xuan said with a smile: "This king had a dream last night, and there will be gods to help him." At dawn tomorrow, everyone can just pass through the mountain pass, and there is no need to waste a soldier. ”
Unlike the city, the mountain pass is at the mercy of the army, and there is no way to use equipment such as Xiangyang artillery and heavy hammer carts. If you want to seize the mountain pass, you can only rely on human lives to fill it. And Wei Xuan's westward expedition no longer planned to transfer another soldier from the Central Plains, so he didn't want his subordinates to sacrifice needlessly. When encountering such a difficult situation as the Uzberi Pass, of course, he had to go out himself.
......
That night, the moon was bright and the stars were scarce. In order to prevent the Chu army from sneaking attack, the Dawan army stationed at the Uzberi Pass lit countless bonfires, illuminating the entire mountain pass as bright as day. The soldiers were also divided into two teams, taking turns on duty, and did not dare to relax in the slightest.
In this way, when it came to the third watch, the soldiers who were on duty in the first half of the night still did not see anyone come to change shifts. One of the captain-looking guys said angrily: "One by one, they only know how to snooze, I'll go and wake them up." ”
With that, he couldn't wait to burrow into the tent. However, as soon as he entered the tent, before he could shout, a pair of large, invisible hands grabbed his throat tightly, lifting him off the ground. He kicked his legs hard a few times, and finally took his last breath. Until this point, he didn't know how he died.
Soon, the Dawan soldiers on duty outside saw an extremely strange picture. One by one, their companions clutched their throats and fell to the ground, as if their necks had been choked alive by something. They wanted to escape, but the terrain of the mountain pass was dangerous, and there was only one way down the mountain, and anyone who fled to the intersection would be inexplicably set on fire until it burned to a pile of ashes. They wanted to resist, but they couldn't see the enemy at all. In the end, they can only die one by one. There were a few cowardly ones, and they were even scared to death.
There was not a single living person in the entire Uzberi Pass, and Wei Xuan appeared from the void, threw the last corpse in his hand on the ground, and shook his head gently. The art of invisibility and the art of earth are used for assassination, and they are really invincible. Although he has caused a lot of killings, this is a mirror time and space, and he doesn't have much psychological burden.
......
At dawn the next day, when the vanguard of the Chu army passed through the Uzberi Pass, the soldiers were surprised to find that the cliffs on both sides of the pass were full of the corpses of Dawan soldiers, a whole thousand, not a lot. Many of the corpses still had frightened expressions on their faces, and it was clear that something terrible had happened before they died.
Seeing this, Guo Jia took the opportunity to shout: "The prince has the help of the gods, and this battle will be won!"
The soldiers immediately shouted loudly: "The prince will win! The prince will win!"
I don't know who was caught in it and shouted: "Long live the prince!"
The shout of "Hooray!" suddenly resounded throughout the mountain pass. The word "long live" can only be enjoyed by the emperor, and whoever dares to call himself long live will be complicit. Now hundreds of thousands of people are shouting long live, there is only Wei Xuan in their hearts, and there is no longer the little emperor Liu Xie.
Jia Xu stroked his beard lightly and said with a meaningful smile: "Lord Wang, the military heart is available!"
When Wei Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but be moved. He came to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty in the mirror time and space, and in four years, he went from a weak scholar to now becoming a prince, and all the states and counties in the world were under his control, so why not be an emperor! However, thinking that four years had passed, he had only mastered thirty-five magical powers and spells, and he immediately calmed down, sank his face, and waved his hand: "Let's go!"
What is the emperor? If he can't find the one hundred and eighth boundary gate, he will only have a dead end. Do you really want to kill the emperor again?
Wei Xuan gathered his mind and led the army to break into the territory of Dawan. After walking for more than ten miles, a Biao army and horse arrived in front, but Yuan Zhong was worried that there were too few defenders in the Uzberi Pass, so he sent 5,000 reinforcements over. Wei Xuan waved his hand lightly, and Ma Chao took the lead in leading the army to sweep over. Poor Dawan's 5,000 men and horses were not enough for the Chu army to stuff their teeth, and they were killed in a blink of an eye.
Dawan was originally one of the countries in the Western Regions, but now he did not listen to the orders of the imperial court, Wei Xuan intended to kill chickens and monkeys, and then ordered the soldiers to divide into five roads, and killed them together to Guishan City, the capital of Dawan Kingdom.
