Chapter 932 Diplomacy
On the day the army set off, Yang Zheng saw him off as usual.

Wen Yang has aged a lot these days, but his demeanor is more stable, and his every move has the demeanor of a general.

The faces of the soldiers not only showed no fear, but rather joy.

After the dismantling of the Chinese army in the past few years, almost all those who did not want to fight have retired, and those who stayed were almost professional soldiers who made their living by fighting.

It can be seen from their equipment.

In addition to the standard equipment provided by the imperial court, some people also forged their own weapons, mace, hand hammer, hand halberd and other handy weapons. Soldiers with good conditions also forged long lances, from lances to poles. , It is not comparable to cheap goods in the military.

Some soldiers also have leather boots and leather cloaks, and the armor is better.

In the past, only generals in the army used equipment, but now ordinary soldiers can get it after saving for a few years.

The military strength of the Western Expeditionary Army has not been unprecedented in the past ten years.

Although the force is small, it is stronger.

The soldiers know how to invest for themselves, which shows that they are more professional, and it also reduces the economic pressure for Daqin.

Most of the soldiers in the Chinese army are small landlords. If they buy a few slaves and add a farm ox to their families, they can let them go and concentrate on practicing martial arts and improving their military skills.

Especially the sons of the Liang family and the Qingying, capable of both literature and martial arts, although there are many sons of noble families and powerful men, they are extremely loyal to the Great Qin.

"Such a powerful team is invincible in the world!" Wen Yang said with his head held high.

"Then I will wait for the good news from General Hou in Daxing!"

"I will live up to Your Majesty!" Wen Yang waved his long lance.

The army set off slowly, and countless war horses galloped towards the west.

The soldiers turned their heads and bowed to Yang Zheng, who also waved to them.

The people of Daxing were more excited than Yang Zheng, they lined the road to see him off, cheering one by one, as if they had already won the victory.

This made the soldiers' chests stand taller.

The envoys of the various countries and the princes studying abroad have expressions of envy and a touch of fear.

Sure enough, after returning to the city, Sasanian's envoy came again, not as arrogant as last time, and they naturally received the news that Daqin had conquered Dawan and Kangju.

It is self-evident who is the target of such a strong team going west.

"Your Majesty the Great Emperor, we Sassanids recognize Daqin's rule over Kangju and Dawan!" The envoy stayed in Daxing for a long time, traveling around, without the confidence he had at the beginning.

"Return it to Hezhong, the two families will make a good alliance." Yang Zheng said with a smile.

Although Hezhong is far away from the Central Plains, it is also far away from the core area of ​​the Sasanian Dynasty.

There is no threat around Daqin, so Yang Zheng can concentrate on fighting for Hezhong, but there are many enemies around Sasan, and they are fighting against Rome.

"We Sasanians will never give up on the river!" the messenger said with strong emotion.

This kind of negotiation is emotional, which already shows that they are at a disadvantage.

"Then why do you need to take the initiative to come to my door to discuss with me? If you have the right to negotiate, we can discuss further. As long as you are willing to withdraw from the river, I, Daqin, can support you in dealing with Rome."

As soon as the word Rome was spoken, the messenger was stunned on the spot.

The war between the Sasanians and the Romans was not only a territorial dispute, but also a sectarian conflict.

"His Majesty……"

"If you don't want to talk, it's okay. We can take the initiative to find the Romans and attack from both sides. At that time, you will not only lose the river!"

The messenger's face was covered with cold sweat.

The mission to Daqin this time was originally only to observe the national strength of Daqin.

In fact, the Persians have always looked down on Huaxia, and they prefer to be closer to the West. This has been the case since ancient times.

It was only because Daqin's strength exceeded their expectations that he put away his arrogance.

"Your Majesty, can you give us some time, I need to go back and report to our monarch!"

"Time?" Yang Zheng smiled, "Then you'd better hurry up, Anxi Governor can fully represent my will, and it's the same when you talk to them, we Huaxia have always loved peace."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The envoy had a strange expression on his face, and after saluting, he hurriedly turned and left.

Yang Zheng didn't have much hope for him. The matter between the two countries these years will eventually be resolved with a knife.

But it's good to scare them.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, China's diplomatic wars took off. Sometimes the achievements of diplomacy were greater than those achieved on the battlefield, so Yang Zheng would naturally not forget it.

Ten days later, another wave of envoys came to Daxing.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Yang Zheng laughed.

The appearance of the Great Qin in the west of Congling Mountain could not fail to attract the attention of the Romans.

The Roman mission was much more formal than the Sassanian, with various gifts and a few blond maids.

In reciprocation, Yang Zheng specially prepared a grand welcome ceremony for them.

"Your Majesty, our Roman Empire is willing to form an alliance with the Great Qin Empire to destroy the evil Sasanians together!" The envoy introduced a long list of his names, but Yang Zheng didn't bother to remember them. title……

In the age of smart weapons, war is the fastest way to communicate civilizations.

"It's fine to wipe it out, we Daqin just want to regain the lost land."

Just kidding, a few blond women want to buy him off, how is that possible?

But then again, these women have uneven figures, where they should be big, and where they should be small, and their clothes are passionate and full of exotic styles.

When Liu Heng saw them, he couldn't move his eyes away.

Sassanian was no fun, and Rome was no fuel-efficient lamp.

They beat them, Daqin just watched the excitement, there was no need to get deeply involved.

You can make a lot of money by having both sides.

"It doesn't matter, as long as Daqin sends troops, we will launch a counterattack in the Mediterranean Sea at the same time. We Rome and Daqin have many common enemies, including the barbarians on the grassland!" The messenger said respectfully.

"Daqin is going to attack Hezhong. As for whether you want to fight Sassan, that's your business. As for cooperation, we can talk about it after this battle. I also welcome you to go to Hezhong to watch this battle."

The Three Kingdoms are the most stable.

Whether it is Sasanian eating Rome, or Rome eating Sassanian, it is not a good thing for Daqin.

Taking the river as a window to look at other civilizations is Yang Zheng's ultimate goal.

The envoy's eyes rolled, and he was a little puzzled by Yang Zheng's attitude, but he was still quite polite, "As you wish, Your Majesty the Emperor."

In fact, such a big battle is just for the Sassanians to put some pressure on them.

Yang Zheng accepted the gift, and the women all returned it.

At this age, it's better to take it easy.

Liu Heng kept moaning, with a look of pity on his face, and he didn't know why he had such a strong desire in this regard...

It's not rude to come and go, Yang Zheng also rewarded them with some gifts.
