contend

Chapter 914
After the Xiongjin Governor's Mansion was established, the tyrants really became more disciplined.

Honestly organized the final blow to Ma Han and Jin Han.

The tyrants got serious, of course Sanhan was no match, the so-called [-] army was defeated by the wolf-like tycoons before even half a month.

Three Koreas were completely subjugated, and there were 31 more hereditary county magistrates.

Each county is much smaller than the Central Plains.

There is no way, there are too many monks, and even so, there are still more than a dozen tyrants who have not been assigned.

Just when Yang Zheng was about to return to Daxing, the tyrants came to work again. This time they set their sights on the Wa country across the sea...

Yang Zheng was a little speechless, this group of people really had a lot of desire.

"Wo Kingdom has just established a new dynasty, and it is quite powerful, not comparable to the three Koreas. I suggest that you cultivate and live for a few years, send secret agents to infiltrate, know its reality, and then use troops." Wei Guan suggested.

"What Boyu said is true." Yang Zheng also felt a little tired.

When I get older, I don't have as much desire for territory as I did when I was young.

But the powerful are willing to toss, so go to toss.

In the past two years, we should take a break first, and everyone can breathe a sigh of relief. Anyway, the country of Wa is wherever it is, and we can't escape.

What Yang Zheng wants is sustainable development, not sprinting.

The immediate priority is not how much land to capture, but to deeply cultivate the Central Plains.

For martial arts, Daqin is enough, what is lacking is Wenzhi.

On the way back, as soon as they arrived in Xingyang, there was a report of defeat from the Western Regions. The coalition forces in the Western Regions were not good for the war in Hezhong. Sasanian Persia was powerful and built many cities in Hezhong.

The coalition forces of the countries in the Western Regions all have their own little calculations, and seeing that the river is a hard bone, their minds are scattered.

The two armies fought, and the [-] Western Region Allied Forces faced [-] Sasanian Persians.

No one expected that when the two sides fell into a stalemate, the coalition forces dispersed in a rush, Yin Chun fell into a bitter fight, and the [-] Gaochang soldiers were suddenly surrounded.

However, in the face of the enemy's persuasion to surrender, they did not lose the face of Daqin, fought bravely and bloody, beheaded nearly ten thousand enemy troops, and severely damaged the invincible Sasanian army.

If the food and grass hadn't been eaten up and the enemy cut off the water source, Yin Chun might have been able to create a miracle.

Just when the whole army was about to be annihilated, thanks to the desperate rescue of the Khotan army, the seriously injured Yin Chun was rescued.

Yang Yijun in the north was also helpless in facing the Sasanian Persian cities. Although he broke through a few cities, he suffered heavy casualties, and his subordinates were mostly cavalry.

The enemy that Daqin is facing now is not a loose nomadic people, but a civilization.

If you look at the history of Sasanian Persia, you will know that they are also a traditional conqueror and the most glorious dynasty of the Persians. Since their birth, they have been expanding and fighting.

After reading the defeat report, Yang Zheng looked gloomy.

The defeat this time had a great impact on Great Qin. The countries in the Western Regions didn't cooperate very much. Now that they are defeated, can they be convinced?
"With the strength of the Han Dynasty, even a small defeat against the Western Regions is nothing to worry about. At this time, we can distinguish which of the countries in the Western Regions really returns to the Great Qin." Du Yu comforted.

After pondering for a moment, Yang Zheng said: "This battle is my carelessness, I shouldn't have marched into the river so quickly."

If you are wrong, you have to admit it. The past few years have been so smooth that you have underestimated the enemy.

The Western Regions were not well integrated, so they rushed to advance troops, and the opponents were not weak, so the defeat was reasonable.

But having said that, Yin Chun did not embarrass Da Qin.

Qin Jun would rather die than surrender, which deeply shocked the Sasanians, making them afraid to take advantage of the victory to pursue.

The Western Regions are still under the control of Daqin.

Although the nations were dissatisfied, no one dared to stand out at this time.

"Under my edict, quickly send medical doctors to the Western Regions with good medicine to keep Yin Chun!" Yang Zheng ordered to the guards around him.

Talent is the most important thing, it doesn't matter if you fail once, just come back next time.

In this battle, the combat power of Sasanian Persia was almost fully understood.

With a superior force and home field advantage, but they fought like this with Fubing, it can only be said that they were lucky this time.

Whoever controls the Hezhong area stands at the center of the world stage.

Before the rise of navigation, the Silk Road was the economic lifeline of this continent.

If there are interests, of course they must be contested.

If you don't take it, it will be cheaper for others.

The middle of the river was originally a land of no owner. Alexander once captured this place, the Parthians once captured this place, and the Da Yuezhi also occupied this place, establishing the Guishuang Empire, and then the Sassanians, Da Cannibals, Xiliao, Mongolia, and Da Mao.

Huaxia also tried to open up this place, but it was a pity that after the Battle of Talas, before Gao Xianzhi regained his strength, the Anshi Rebellion followed one after another...

If the Chinese civilization really wants to go out and compete with other civilizations, it must enter the river!

Because Congling, Tianshan, and the desert grassland cut off the Central Plains Empire from other civilizations.

So Daqin needed a place to stay west of Congling.

"I want to re-establish the four major Protectorate Houses, Anbei Protectorate in Mobei, Anxi Protectorate in the Western Regions, Annan Protectorate in Jiaozhou, Andong Protectorate in Liaobei, what do Yuan Kai and Boyu think?"

"Didn't Your Majesty just set up the Xiongjin Governor's Mansion?" Wei Guan asked.

From the name, one can tell that the rank of the Duhu Mansion is higher than that of the Dudu Mansion.

The Great Han once set up the Protectorate of the Western Regions, with a rank ratio of two thousand stones, and was the highest military and political officer in the Western Regions.

This defeat exposed the problem that Yin Chun did not have enough control over the coalition forces of the various countries. The military power in name does not mean that he has real control over the military forces of the various countries.

To be honest, you still need your own people to fight.

Others can only beat the side drums and fight for the wind, and expect them to risk their lives, that is a fantasy.

"I would like to serve as the Protector of the Western Regions, and I hope Your Majesty will grant you permission." Du Yu volunteered.

Wei Guan rolled his eyes a few times, wanted to say something, but finally swallowed it back.

Of course Yang Zheng knew what Du Yu was thinking.

One is to avoid fighting in the court, and the other is to make a name for yourself, so that it will be left in a more colorful stroke in the history books.

Du Yu is not good for money and power, but he only likes fame.

Only when he goes can he be sure.

If it succeeds, it will be enough to seal a hereditary duke in the Western Regions in the future.

Yang Zheng said helplessly: "Every time the country has a problem, Yuan Kai has always stepped forward."

Du Yu laughed and said: "This is the duty of a minister. This is not only to promote the prestige of the Great Qin State, but also to spread Confucianism. As a scholar, how can I stay out of it?"

"Haha, the three of you, my monarch and my ministers, will surely be famous throughout the ages!" Yang Zheng also laughed, not forgetting Wei Guan beside him.

Wei Guan was moved, "It's really a blessing for me to meet His Majesty!"

Du Yu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for fulfilling the task."

"Yuan Kai is the governor of Anxi, Ma Long is the governor of Andong, Lu Kang is the governor of Annan, and the governor of Anbei. Who can take on this role?"

There are actually many candidates, Zhang Te, Wen Yang, Meng Yu, and Ma Xun are all qualified.

Wei Guan cupped his hands and said: "Mobei is unusual, and someone who is not wise and courageous is not qualified for the job. I recommend Pang Shizhong!"

"Pang Qing?" Yang Zheng looked at Wei Guan, isn't this just dismissing his competitors?
However, it is also okay to let Pang Qing go to Mobei, firstly to avoid the intensifying internal strife between the DPRK and China, and secondly, this time may not be an opportunity to increase his qualifications.

A few years later, when Pang Qing returned to the court, he could truly stand against Wei Guan.
