contend

Chapter 962 Brothers
The war between Sasanian and Rome was fought on and off for two years.

The two sides are old enemies for thousands of years, the kind that will never die. As long as the other party is still alive, this war will not stop.

The biggest consumption of war is not food, but also population.

Countless civilians of countless ethnic groups in the West were involved in this war, and war weariness was everywhere.

And when they looked around, they found that the only pure land around them was Daqin, and only Daqin could accept them.

Just like the Yuezhi, Heda, and Qiuci moved westward to avoid the war between the Han and the Hungarians, a large number of tribes and people who hated war moved eastward into the Han and Xia kingdoms.

They brought a large number of people and wealth, which greatly promoted the prosperity of the two countries.

But of course Sasan and Rome refused to let these traitors go, and sent cavalry to hunt them down.

The Protectorate of the Western Regions made a decisive decision and sent cavalry to rescue. The war between the two countries turned into a small-scale melee among the Three Kingdoms for no reason.

Daqin sent troops to rescue, which itself was an encouragement and support for those who moved eastward.

Realizing that something was wrong, Sasanian and Rome temporarily stopped the war, and each sent envoys to demand the return of their men.

What you eat will naturally not be spit out.

At this time, the traditional skills of the Central Plains began to exert their power. Anxi Duhufu pushed the ball to Han Guo, Han Guo pushed the ball to Xia Guo, and Xia Guo pushed back to Anxi Duhufu.

After coming and going, half a year has passed, and the raw rice has already been cooked.

The strengths of Han and Xia were there. When Sassanid and Persia were fighting fiercely, they were not idle. They trained soldiers, stockpiled food and grass, fortified the city, and built the Hezhong and Qihe valleys into railways.

At this moment, Yang Yi, King of Xia, Yang Min, King of Han, and Du Yu, the Protector of Anxi, gathered in Guishan City. According to regulations, each brought a thousand elite guards.

Although the three sat together, the soldiers of the three parties had their own characteristics.

Xia Guo's soldiers are all cavalry, well-equipped, mostly Qiang and Hu descendants, carrying longbows in the north, with fierce eyes, they look like veterans of many battles.

The soldiers of the Han Dynasty were all tall and burly Han people, with swords hanging from their waists, crossbows hanging on their horses, three hundred heavy cavalry, and seven hundred heavy armor. With this strength alone, the forces in Central Asia would not dare Despise qualified new rises and seal the country.

There are Qiang descendants behind Xia Guo.

Behind the Han Dynasty was the strong support of Shu Han scholars.

Of course, the most elite is the Protectorate of the Western Regions. Each of the thousand cavalrymen is holding a long spear. If you look closely, you will find that their armor is slightly different. As soldiers, many of them actually wear the bright light that only generals can have. Armor, Black Light Armor, Cold Forged Armor.

In addition to the sharp long lance, each person also carries other weapons at the waist according to personal preferences, such as maces, bones, short halberds, knives, and swords.

In terms of momentum, they are also the most powerful.

These people are Liangjiazi and Qingying children from Yongliang.

Almost everyone is capable of both civil and military skills. If they are placed in other armies, they must be at least officers of the rank of Qu Chang and Duwei.

The equipment was second to none. The calmness, confidence, and devotion on their faces instantly compared the other two armies.

Yang Yi, who has always been arrogant and brave, became more low-key after seeing this team.

The awe of Du Yu was once again high.

"Your Highness." Du Yu bowed his hands to the two of them respectively, "The Sassanians will not give up the land in the river, and they will make a comeback sooner or later. The Romans did not really form an alliance with the Great Qin. They are planning for China, and we will work together to resist foreign enemies. !"

Since the establishment of Han State, Xia State has been somewhat displeased with Han State.

Of course, Han Guo also disliked Xia Guo.

The relationship between the two sides couldn't be more obvious. Xia Guo annexed Han Guo, and it could become the overlord of Central Asia in one fell swoop.

In addition to guarding against the Sasanians, the Han Kingdom also had to guard against a sudden attack from the Xia Kingdom.

Although Yang Min has no ill feeling towards his elder brother, the situation of the two countries dictates it.

Yang Min knew better that the reason why Yang Zheng established the Han Kingdom was that he didn't want the Xia Kingdom to expand too much and become militaristic.

"It's true what the guardian said, everything is for my Daqin's century-old plan!" Yang Min and Du Yu basically wore a pair of trousers.

But Yang Yi's eyes flashed, "Daduhu, I have joined forces with the three parties. We have 20 elite soldiers, plus the government soldiers, Muqi, and other righteous followers. It is not difficult to raise an army of 20. With this [-] army, why are you afraid of Sasanian?" Rome!"

Du Yu shook his head and said with a smile: "20 troops, plus horses, people eat horses and chew, where does the food come from?"

After all, Daqin's foundation in Central Asia is too weak.

Yang Yi was speechless for a moment.

Yang Min bowed his hands to him, "My elder brother has the bravery of my father, but there are hundreds of ethnic groups in Han and Xia, and the ambitious people are like crucian carp crossing the river. Once the war goes wrong, these people will take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble. Years of hard work went to waste."

Both Sasanian and Roman powers are great powers, one is at its peak and the other is on the rise again.

It is almost impossible to destroy them quickly.

Moreover, when entering the Mediterranean region, not only cavalry is relied on, but the importance of the navy will also be highlighted.

Yang Yi was just talking, looking at the reactions of the two, "Since the Sasanians are not being attacked, what is the purpose of this alliance?"

Du Yu said solemnly: "Xia Han join hands, our Great Qin will be invincible here, and His Majesty's great plans for the future will also be realized."

Yang Yi secretly received the Sasanian envoy, so naturally he couldn't escape Du Yu's eyes.

This is a dangerous signal.

No matter what the two sides are talking about, it will definitely damage Daqin's interests.

That's why Du Yu had this alliance. Apart from showing it to the countries in Central Asia, it was also to remind Yang Yi not to go astray and do things that make loved ones hurt and enemies happy.

When it comes to the emperor, neither of them dare to neglect.

"I would like to obey the order of the Great Protector!"

Yang Yi does have ambitions for He Zhong, but it is not out of control.

It's fine if Han is weak, but Yang Min is not an ordinary person. In two years, he managed the river in an orderly manner.

As Han became more and more stable and powerful, this ambition was also restraining.

What if you don't restrain yourself?As long as the emperor is still in power, Yang Yi will never dare to risk the dissatisfaction of the world and attack his own brother's feudal state. If that is the case, Yang Yi will die from the Great Qin.

What's more, there is Du Yu here.

This is a hurdle he will never be able to get around, especially today, after seeing the soldiers of the Anxi Protectorate, he is even more sure of this.

The last time Yang Zheng ignored him, it had already made him nervous.

"Han and Xia join hands, and this place will be the land of Qin forever!" Du Yu looked relieved, he believed that the two princes were not fools, both would benefit from cooperation, and both would lose from fighting, and they would only give outsiders a chance.

"Eternal land of Qin!" The Liang family from the Anxi Protectorate was the first to roar.

All of them blushed with excitement.

Then the soldiers of the Han Kingdom roared, but the loudest ones were the Qiang cavalrymen of the Xia Kingdom, "Long live the Great Qin!"

One after another shouted straight into the sky, shaking the entire Central Asia.

Du Yu glanced at the two of them. As long as the two countries live in harmony, outsiders will have no chance at all.
