Chapter 281 Wusun Kingdom (4K)

After another half month of marching, the army finally arrived at Dunhuang City.

The Qiang army sent out came back yesterday, swept around, and killed more than 1000 Huns in total, and finally wiped out these annoying harassing troops.

Arriving at Dunhuang City doesn't mean you have reached your destination. Huo Shan set his destination at Hami, which is nearly a thousand miles away from Dunhuang.

Just arrive in mid-May. In the past two months of land reclamation, there was enough time. The yield of the newly opened land could not be too high, but it had to be planted, so I stayed in Dunhuang City for three days.

Huo Shan hurried on the journey and didn't stop for a day. Everyone was very tired and just in time to rest.

In fact, Hami is a bit far away, but there is no way. He doesn't like ordinary places. The 20 military households are very powerful in the Western Regions, enough to take root in that land.

.........

"The envoys have been in the Western Regions for some time, how is the situation?"

Huo Shan turned his head and asked Zhang Anshi.

Zhang Anshi smiled:

"Recently, there has been a lot of news. As expected by the governor, the countries in the Western Regions are very enthusiastic, but they just haven't made a statement."

Huo Shan lay on the recliner, resting his hands behind his head:

"The things that can be foreseen, the sloppy words at both ends of the first mouse are talking about them, and they will not express their position unless they sense a real crisis.

They'll know what to do when our large army approaches the city. "

"Not all of them are like this. Some have a tough attitude and treat our envoys very badly, while some are really resigned, such as the Pulei Kingdom and the Pulei Houguo."

Huo Shan became a little interested:
"Tell me."

Zhang Anshi arched his hands, then smiled and said:

"Pulei Kingdom is a very interesting country. When their king heard that we were about to enter the Western Regions with millions of soldiers, they surrendered without waiting for our envoys to propose."

Huo Shan thought for a while, then said:

"Their life is not easy. I originally wanted to destroy them directly, but now that they have surrendered, let's accept it. What about Pulei Houguo?"

"Pulei Houguo's attitude is very tough, and he directly kicked out our envoy, very arrogant.

The specific reason is why, the envoys in the front didn't understand it, and after inquiring about it later, they found out that they like to fight against Pu Leiguo. "

Huo Shan bared his lips:
"Tsk, it's pretty good."

Huo Shan was very speechless in his heart. He didn't want to say more at first, but he couldn't hold back:
"The Pulei Kingdom still has a population of at least 2000 people. They don't even have half of the population of the Pulei Kingdom. It will be over a thousand. Pai Habayashi can kill them even in the past. Where do you think they have the confidence?"

Zhang Anshi was actually a little speechless:

"Perhaps they felt that with the backing of the Xiongnu, it was impossible for a big man to travel such a long distance to the Western Regions.

According to the envoys, many countries in the Western Regions think so, and many of them don't have a clear understanding of the big man. "

Huo Shan shook his head and sighed:

"God's sins can be forgiven, but one's own sins can't live!"

The most famous part of the Western Regions is the 36 countries of the Western Regions, but it is still four or fifty years before this statement appears.

And at the beginning of that time, there were not 36 countries in the Western Regions, but more than 36 countries. After each annexation, only [-] countries remained.

As for now, there are more, the big man has never made a specific statistics, but according to Huo Shan's estimation, there are still some who are close to seventy or eighty.

But these countries, like the Pulei country, have a population of 2000 in the majority, and a population of more than [-] is already very powerful.

Most of the country does not even have the population of a single township of Dahan.

If Huo Shan had worked harder and been more ruthless, he might have earned the reputation of fighting for a lifetime and destroying more than a hundred countries, which sounds domineering.

However, there are also some big countries, such as Dawan, Kangju, Wusun, and the Da Yuezhi who could not get along in the northwest and moved to Central Asia, etc.

Speaking of Wusun, he thought of the marriage that he still never forgot.

"What's Wusun's attitude?"

"There is no news from Wusun yet."

"Information says that Lie Jiaomi is dead?"

Lie Jiaomi is none other than Wusun Kunmo, the king, who married Liu Xijun.

"Exactly, Lie Jiaomi died last year. The exact time is not clear, but we still know that his grandson Junxu Mi succeeded to the throne."

Huo Shan sighed:

"His younger brother Dalu still hasn't won the kingship, but this is a good thing for us, but this Dahonglu is really worthless."

Zhang Anshi was silent, but he agreed in his heart.

Speaking of Wusun, he is also a guy with both ends of the head, and there is still a story in it.

When it comes to this story, we have to mention our late Bowang Hou Zhangqian.

After Zhang Qian returned from his mission to the Western Regions, he proposed to Liu Che the strategy of uniting the Western Regions, cutting off the arms of the Huns, and developing his own.

Lao Liu naturally agreed with this strategy, and Zhang Qian proposed Wusun Kingdom.

And he didn't go at the right time, it was the time when the Wusun country was in turmoil.

At that time, Kunmo was Lie Jiaomi, and he had a son, no one knew what his name was in Dahan, but it was recorded in the books that he was the prince.

But the prince died young, and before he died, he proposed to let his son Cen Zou be the prince. Lie Jiaomi also had this idea, so he agreed.

And this Cen Zou is Jun Xu Mi, and Jun Xu Mi is a title.

However, the prince has a younger brother named Dalu, who has military power in his hands.

This Dalu thought, the boss is dead, isn't this me?

But you didn't follow the rules, so ah, I feel very dissatisfied in my heart.

As for Lie Jiaomi, he was afraid that Dalu would hurt Jun Xumi, so he gave him [-] soldiers and horses, and let him go out on his own, and he controlled more than [-] soldiers and horses to protect himself.

Most of the military power is still in the hands of Dalu, and the father and grandson are living a miserable life!

As for why Dalu was able to control so much military power, there is nothing but one reason, the support of the Huns behind it!

And our Bowang Hou Zhangqian just came here not long after this happened.

He first went to see Jun Xumi. Logically speaking, his opponent had the Xiongnu behind him, so he should agree to the big man, but he didn't agree.

The specific reason is not recorded, anyway, it just didn't work.

Perhaps Jun Xumi was young and frivolous, and he hated this kind of behavior of participating in other countries' internal affairs.

Or maybe the Huns contacted him, and the Huns were very powerful in the Western Regions, so he didn't dare, just like his grandfather.

Zhang Qian then went to Lie Jiaomi, who was even more courageous than his grandson, and said to him, "Old people belong to the country and cannot be autocratic."

It means that he is old, and he doesn't care what he says about this country. Although this is also a fact on the surface, it is just an excuse.

Thinking about it, I know that a generation of old kings still have no power in their hands, and the left and right are just forming an alliance.

At that time, the big man didn't have the idea of ​​asking them to help, just don't help the Huns.

He also said that the ministers in the country don't understand the big man, and the subconscious meaning is that you big man have the qualifications to form an alliance with me, Wusun?
But the good thing is that our Zhang Qian has not given up yet, he took advantage of the situation and invited Lie Jiaomi to send an envoy to visit me, Dahan.

And when dozens of envoys came to the big man, they were shocked by the strength of the big man, and they facilitated this matter after returning home.

But at that time, the Xiongnu Shanyu wanted to attack Wusun after he knew about it.

The old man Liejiaomi was in a hurry, knowing that the big man was trying his best to win over the countries in the Western Regions, so he asked for marriage and support.

Although Huo Shan strongly disagreed, Liu Che agreed and chose the clan Liu Jian, who was the grandson of Emperor Jing.

He chose Liu Jian's daughter Liu Xijun, made her a princess, and married the young girl to the old man Lie Jiaomi.

Huo Shan had no objection to wooing Wusun, but was very supportive. Wusun is a big country in the Western Regions, with a population of more than 20 and nearly [-] troops.

It's not much compared with the big man, but you compare it with other countries in the Western Regions!

But Huo Shan objected to the marriage for two reasons. One was that he didn't like marriage and he didn't want Liu Xijun, a poor woman, to die early in pain. These two points can be counted as one.

According to the history that Huo Shan learned, Liu Xijun was very unaccustomed to the tradition of these nomads treating women as brothers and sisters, father died and son succeeded, and finally died of depression.

And Huo Shan can't say, change to someone with a tougher personality, who is not human, you change one, liberate Liu Xijun, but harm the other, so he objected.

And the other reason is that Huo Shan knows that for the idiots in the Western Regions, if you don't show them a little bit of strength, you will make them feel threatened.

Then you form an alliance, no matter how many women and things you send, it is impossible to win them over.

And the subsequent situation is generally the same as history and Huo Shan's guess.

After the Xiongnu Shanyu heard about the marriage, he also sent a woman over.

Lie Jiaomi directly accepted all the bills, Mrs. You belonged to a big man, Mrs. Zuo belonged to the Huns, what a joke!

In those few days, Liu Che's face was so green. Huo Shan didn't know he was fighting, otherwise he would have wanted to mock him: Hehe, I told you not to listen to me, look!

Of course, just think about it!
Last year, when Huo Shan was fighting with the Xiongnu, news came that Lie Jiaomi had died, Jun Xumi had succeeded him, and Dalu, his uncle, had been taken care of by this guy.

The Dahan sent envoys to pay homage to the old king and congratulate the new king. When they returned, they brought back a letter, a letter from Liu Xijun.

He said that he didn't want to remarry, and that he would marry the grandson of his previous husband, so he asked his family to support her and save her.

Rejected by Liu Che, it probably means marrying a chicken as a chicken, marrying a dog as a dog, going to someone else's territory, and obeying their customs.

Marrying into another country, the language barrier is still the same custom, and the country is still close to the Huns, the sworn enemy of the big man. One can imagine what kind of life she will live.

Huo Shan didn't know about this, and it was too late when he came back to find out, but even if he knew, there was nothing he could do if he wasn't there.

Is what Liu Che said right?
It's true, but it's not the right thing to do, and it's very wrong.

But now that he is here, it is impossible to bring Liu Xijun back to the big man, even if Huo Shan takes her back, she will not be able to survive the big man.

Married into Wusun, she is from Wusun, not a big Han person anymore!

But it is still possible to give her a better life.

I can't take you back to your natal family. It's okay for your natal family to come and support you.

As for the country of Wusun, Huo Shan has no intention of destroying him, the mission of this trip is to destroy Dawan.

To destroy Wusun, Wusun is also a powerful country, just frighten him and make them obedient.

But the situation keeps changing, who can say for sure!

The Western Regions are in a state of disunity, and it is impossible for them to unite on their own, unless there is a powerful foreign force coordinating them, such as the Huns, such as the Han.

However, the Xiongnu did not do it thoroughly, and the same is true for the big men in history. They were all about wooing.

What Huo Shan has to do is to get this matter out of the way, he either dies or surrenders, and Wusun, a big country not too far away, is no exception.

And to achieve this goal is also very simple.

There is no need for Huo Shan to divide them by himself. They are divided in the first place, and it is very simple to break them one by one.

Either resist to the end and be wiped out by my [-] army, or surrender, and then send troops to follow.

As he fights all the way and goes deep, the power in Huo Shan's hands will become stronger and stronger. He is not afraid of Wusun with only a hundred thousand soldiers, let alone adding the troops of these small countries one after another.

A family of five hundred, a family of ten is five thousand, and a family of twenty is ten thousand!

Not to mention that there are big and small, five hundred and one family is just the minimum number.

If another big country is gathered, it is not impossible to have [-] troops.

If it comes down like this, it will be another legend, leading 20 Han soldiers and [-] alien soldiers to sweep the Western Regions.

Although it is a little unstable to do so, but what to do so steadily, what Huo Shan wants is not to really expand the territory.

If he really wants to expand the territory, he must destroy all the countries on this land.

Since they can't actually rule, why destroy them? The continuous rebellion involves a lot of energy to this area that can't be ruled, and make trouble for yourself?

He is here to stir up the wind and rain, so that the wind and rain in this world will become the wind and rain of my big man.

Instead of using all your strength to destroy them now, it is better to gather them, they are also a very powerful force, wouldn't it be good to fight the Huns together?

Afterwards, just like Qiang land, just plan slowly.

Furthermore, countries like Kangju and Da Yuezhi are too far away, and it would be a hugely difficult task just to get them to surrender, let alone destroy them, as long as there is a Dawan.

It is still uncertain whether they can be made to surrender.

Although they were weak compared to the big man, if they were near the big man, then Huo Shan would definitely be able to destroy them.

But Dawan is thousands of miles away from Dahan Pass, which is the real ten thousand miles. According to later generations, they all came out of Xinjiang, which is a proper Central Asia.

Not to mention Kangju and Da Yuezhi, which are farther than Dawan. Kangju is thousands of miles away from Chang'an, and if converted into kilometers, the distance is more than ten kilometers, which is five thousand kilometers.

They are still nomads, trying to exterminate them is easier said than done!
However, the specific situation remains to be seen in the past.

For example, the Da Yuezhi is divided into five divisions, each of which is not at peace with each other, and there is room for manipulation. I don’t know the specific situation!
