Chapter 604 Western Regions
The Western Regions in this era are full of oases.

Especially Haitou City, which is located in the largest oasis in the north of Loulan Kingdom.

Loulan is a small country among the thirty countries in the Western Regions, but its geographical location is very important. It is an important hub of the Silk Road. The North and South Silk Roads are divided here. Taking blanket brown as an exception, he often went to Chang'an to study as a prince.

During the Han-Hungarian War, this place was a hot spot for repeated contention.

But in the end, the Han army was superior. Ban Chao, Fu Jiezi, etc., only relied on the influence of the Han Dynasty to command the armies of the countries and defeated the Xiongnu.

Its prestige has continued to the present.

The flames of war in the Western Regions were also affected by the situation in China.

Emperor Cao Wei was murdered in the street, and the state of Wei was divided into east and west, which weakened the influence of China on the Western Regions.

Some ambitious people are naturally ready to move.

The places occupied by the Qin State are the most elite places in the Western Regions.

Gaochang, Loulan, Yiwu, and Luntai are stretches of grassland oases that have been reclaimed by the Han people since 200 years ago. The population is prosperous, and the key is the throat of the Silk Road, where gold and jade are rolling in.

Great wealth certainly stimulates the beasts around it.

Since the end of the Han Dynasty, it has not been a day or two for various forces in the Western Regions to erode the Changshi Mansion of the Western Regions.

Chaos spread all the way to Hexi.

After Cao Zhen took office as the governor of Yongliang, he defeated the Hu coalition forces, beheaded more than 110 ranks, gained [-] lives, [-] million sheep, and [-] cattle!

All the thorn-headed tribes in Hexi had their heads shaved.

This battle also allowed the Western Regions to see the power of the Middle Earth, sending envoys one by one, and Cao Wei resumed his rule over the Western Regions.

Now Cao Wei is on the verge of collapse, and it has been 30 years since Cao Zhen defeated the Hus.

A new round of trials has begun.

Under the city of Haitou, the barracks of the barbarians spread to the horizon.

This place was originally an oasis, so the Zhuhu coalition forces simply didn't leave, and just grazed under the city.

The siege has been over four months.

The bones under the city had all rotted into black bones, and the huge rancid smell shot straight into the sky, attracting vultures to hover in the sky.

The three thousand Wei troops in Haitou City were already exhausted, but they refused to surrender.

To surrender is to become a slave.

A Han man went to be a slave to the barbarians, and was chained all day long, no different from a cow or a horse. His parents, wives and children were allowed to be insulted by them. The old and weak women and children in Haitou City would rather die in battle.

"Although there are 3000 thieves, they may not be the enemy of my [-] Yingyang camp. Why did the governor not fight?" Destroy the enemy army and cut off the head of the bandit chieftain.

Yin Chun stroked the two beards that had been carefully grown on his lips, which gave him the air of a Confucian general, "The Western Regions today are not the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty. To frighten the tribes, the Hu people have always admired swords and weapons, so if you don't make a move in this battle, you will be fine, and if you make a move, you will be severely injured, what is Feng Shijun's plan?"

Envoy Feng is Feng Qi, who was given the status of an envoy by Yang Zheng back then, and went to the Western Regions to bluff and cheat, and got along well, and became brothers with the king's family.

After so many years, Feng Qi has also cultivated his own influence among the countries in the Western Regions. The pro-Qin faction in the Western Regions has gradually increased, and he has also become one of the largest merchants in the Western Regions.

It was once rumored that Feng Qi's gold pile was higher than Tianshan Mountain.

Feng Qi's gemstones stacked together can cover the grasslands of the Western Regions.

Of course, this is just a legend. No one knows Feng Qi's real wealth, and it is certain that he is incomparably rich.

Its caravan went as far as another Daqin in Haixi.

"The rebellion in the Western Regions was instigated by Xianbei from the right, and Wusun, Qiuci and other countries were held hostage by him." Feng Qi was dressed in silk, satin and jewels, with a head of various gemstones embedded in his felt hat, and all the guards behind him were tall. There are barbarians in Martha, white and black.

Feng Qi seized every opportunity to show off, "Brother Yin, brother Ma, after the Xiongnu were defeated by the Han, Xianbei jumped up, and Tan Shihuai unified all the tribes of Xianbei. For thousands of miles, the Western Regions belonged to the right part of Xianbei. The two divisions of the Japanese law are growing, and there are 20 people who control the strings. This time, tens of thousands of troops are going south to the Western Regions. They are just vanguards, testing the strength of the Great Qin army!"

Xianbei was extremely powerful in the hands of Tan Shihuai, completely inherited the territory of the Xiongnu, and once sent troops to attack the country of Japan, rejected the Eastern Han Dynasty's title of king and marriage, and repeatedly attacked the nine northern counties of the Han Dynasty.

If it were not for his early death at the age of 45, the pattern of the Three Kingdoms would have undergone major changes.

"Brother Feng is well-informed." Yin Chun complimented.

Feng Qi laughed loudly, "Where is it? Brother Yin is guarding Xizhou. He is both wise and brave. Zhi Dian Luo and Luo Ri Lv are by no means opponents."

Yin Chun also laughed loudly, "Brother Feng is also a hero in the world, and he has already confessed Brother Feng's merits to the King of Qin!"

In recent years, Feng Qi has supported the Qin State, recruited many craftsmen and scholars from the Western Regions, and supported a large amount of food and grass.

All kinds of information are naturally out of the question.

A businessman naturally values ​​profit first, and at Feng Qi's level, money interests no longer attract his interest.

Political interests are his ultimate pursuit.

Without the support of a powerful force, no matter how much money you have, it is still fish on someone else's chopping board.

Yang Zheng, whom he called Younger Brother Yang back then, is even worse now.

Ma Xun blushed a little when he heard the two of them boasting.

After laughing for a while, Yin Chun looked serious, "The turmoil in the Western Regions has been going on for several months. Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time. The bandit army is already slacking off. Our army is strong and strong. In this battle, we will not leave any armor behind. Zhi Lian Luo and Luo Ri Lv have learned a terrible lesson!"

"Follow the order!"

A row of Qiang general Hu will shine his eyes.

The reason why Yin Chun procrastinated until now was because he wanted to settle the Western Regions in a single battle.

So Feng Qi came here after smelling it, proposing to reshape the order of the Western Regions, wrote tens of thousands of words, analyzed all the countries in the Western Regions and even the countries west of Congling, and sent people to Chang'an quickly.

You don't need to send troops from Chang'an, you only need to integrate the countries in the Western Regions, and you can defeat the Xiongnu in the Western Regions like the big Han back then.

The cavalry gathered like a flock of crows to the sound of horns.

Ma Xun's [-] Yingyang Battalion lined up at the front, Yin Chun's [-] soldiers were in the middle, and Feng Qi's [-] Yi soldiers recruited with a lot of money were behind.

The victory or defeat of the war is not considered by the soldiers of the Qin army at all, and the equipment and morale are not at the same level.

If the Zhuhu coalition has a set of leather armor, it is elite.

Forty percent of Yingyang's army is made of iron armor, and as for the leather armor, everyone has a set.

The soldiers of Gaochang Mansion were aided by Feng Qi, and they were also well-equipped. They brought a large number of chain mails, machetes, and iron shields from the Western Kingdom.

The previous defeats were actually Yin Chun's deliberate show of weakness, playing a trick of arrogance, in order to find out the strength of the Hu coalition forces.

The inability to attack Haitou City for such a long time has already shown their combat power.

[-] people, rank five military merit.

The rest depends on how much you gain.

To fight for oneself, of course everyone uses their lives.

"This battle is not only for Daqin, but also for you!" Yin Chun's heart was full of emotion. He happened to be 30 years old this year, and at the age of 30, he was alone. He ruled 10,000+ people and had tens of thousands of troops in his hands. Now that the husband is here, what more can he ask for?
At this moment, two people appeared in Yin Chun's mind, Zhou Yu and Cao Zhen.

A young man, famous all over the world.

A brave and good at fighting, deterring the Western Regions.

"It's a great fortune for you and me to be born in Daqin and meet the hero!" Yin Chun said to the generals behind him.

"Da Qin!"

Under the spring sun, tens of thousands of knives and spears stabbed at the blue sky, and the murderous spirit caused the vultures circling in the sky to flee in panic.

The flags are flying, and the cavalry is like a tide.

The flag with the Qin character flying over the land of the Western Regions, over the vast grasslands, rolling iron hooves...
