Chapter 502
Luo Qing, who came to Chang'an, did not expect it to be so smooth. Emperor Liu Xun was different from what many people imagined. He seemed to be impatiently waiting for the arrival of this war.

The entire Han Dynasty and even Zhu Xia were completely turned upside down by the edict of Emperor Liu Xun.

A series of orders flew to the county as the messenger traveled.

Liu Xun's attitude was unprecedentedly tough, which indeed exceeded many people's expectations. Haohaotangtang's soldiers were recruited from various counties.

"Since Emperor Xiaowu defeated the Xiongnu in the Mobei decisive battle, the soldiers of the Central Plains have never been as strong as they are now."

"Isn't this considered militarism?"

"How can there be a corrupt Confucian like you among the Confucian sects? Emperor Liu Dan doesn't care about the displacement of the people in the world and imposes a strong taxation. That's called militarism.

The Han under His Majesty's rule is thriving, and the treasury is far more prosperous than before. Even a large-scale use of troops cannot cause refugees to fill the ground. This is called doing what we can! "

Various voices sounded from everywhere, and finally they converged into one voice, which was the emperor's edict, "Defeat the Xiongnu, restore the tranquility of the border of the Han Dynasty, and make the Han Dynasty have another 50 years of stability!"

Luo Shi received the emperor's will, "Qing is the son of the former Wushuanghou. In the past, Wushuanghou Wuji led the armies of the Western Regions and Hexi to attack Mobei and annihilate the Xiongnu. Now I will entrust this task to Qing. Don't let the ancestors Shame."

Luo Shi put away his will, looked at the magnificent scenery of the Western Regions with white clouds, turned around and shouted to the assistant officer of the Duhu Mansion: "Pass down the order of the Marquis, recruit all righteous soldiers to join the army, recruit the troops of all vassal states, collect food and grass, and go out!"

The armies of the Western Regions and Hexi are the most powerful in the ranks of the Han army. Because of their long battle experience, they are no worse than those formed by good families.

The main problem in the Western Regions was the small number of Han people. Luo Shi was unwilling to send a large number of Han people to the battlefield every time he fought, because he was afraid that a large number of Han men would die in battle, and then change the already fragile population ratio.

After four generations of emperors' continuous exile and immigration, as well as the force deterrence of the Metropolitan Protectorate, the former ancient Wusun Kingdom in the Western Regions has lost most of its territory.

This is the basic territory of the Dadu Protectorate in the Western Regions. Luo Shi is very cautious in protecting it. Even if he attacks the Xiongnu, he is unwilling to recruit large-scale personnel from it.

Because fighting the Huns may not necessarily win, and the long-distance attack of thousands of miles is a kind of loss in itself, and it is unknown how many people will die on the road.

The Governor of the Western Regions governs all the countries in the Western Regions, and all of them received this rather severe letter from the Governor of the Western Regions. It turned out that the Xiongnu had made a comeback and wanted to compete with the Han people again for the position of the overlord of the world.

The war between the Han court and the Xiongnu may have been in the past for too long. The kings of these small countries in the Western Regions have forgotten how the big Han defeated the Xiongnu.

Now he actually thinks that the Xiongnu can compete with the big man. Luo Shi's evaluation is daydream. The Xiongnu without the Western Regions is a tiger without wings.

Although there are countless different thoughts in their hearts, the bodies of the countries in the Western Regions are very honest. They have recruited people and food, and followed Luo Shi to send troops to attack the Xiongnu.

The Xiongnu are too far away, and Luo Shi is too close, what can we do!
……

Peerless Marquis Mansion.

The emperor's decree came down, and after preparing for the battle, it was time to go to war.

Luo Shi was wearing the general's attire, and his wife adjusted the collar of the robe for him, "My beloved, when will you be back?"

Luo Shi was silent for a moment and said: "The food and grass can last for at most one year, if you can't eat it from the enemy, it will be one year."

"Okay, one year, one year later, you must come back on time, I will wait for you at home."

Luo Shi nodded silently, the woman in front of him no longer had the beauty of the past, and both of them were a bit old.

A princess of the Han family lived with her for decades in this wild land of the Western Regions, supporting each other as she went on.

Luo Shi suddenly sighed.

Ugh.

When I went to Chang'an to kill Liu Dan, I hurt her after all. Although I didn't say anything, I woke up from the dream from time to time. This stagnation made her suffer all the time. Since then, her body has been deteriorating. .

A pampered woman is actually in poorer health than a battle-hardened general like herself.

Thinking of these, Luo Shi didn't know what to say, his life was really screwed up.

In the eyes of outsiders, he is the Northwest King of the Han Dynasty, the Great Protector of the Western Regions with great military exploits, the number one brave general of the Han Dynasty today, and the idol of the world's athletes. Among the common people, his prestige far exceeds that of his elder brother, Duke Zhao who sits in the city of Zhao.

But only he himself knows the bitterness in it, and how much pain there is under the iron body. Taking away Liu Dan's woman and daughter and protecting Dawan Dongwang is his act of obeying his heart.

"After tidying up, he is still that heroic man, just like the one I saw you before."

The woman put away her melancholy, smiled and said, "Go to see your robes and lead them to defeat the Xiongnu. I am the daughter of Emperor Xiaowu and the real princess of the Han family. I don't want to see such things as the Xiongnu exist in the world."

Luo Shi nodded, then turned his head and strode forward, but the more he walked, the more he felt an ominous premonition, but in retrospect, he didn't know where this feeling came from, so he could only shake his head and attribute it to concerns about the future.

In Wushuanghou's mansion, the woman watched her husband stride away, couldn't hold it any longer, coughed twice, the bright red blood on the white cloth was so dazzling, her face was so pale, her body was really sick. Worse.

There may be a strong side in her character, but she is still a weak woman after all. She understands the violent behavior between her husband and elder brother but cannot forgive herself. After 18 years, both her own children and her elder brother’s children have grown up. She couldn't take it any longer.

"lady!"

The maid exclaimed from the side, and then said anxiously: "Do you want to call the Patriarch back?"

She waved her hand and said: "Don't make a fuss, the owner of the family is going to do big things, we don't want to make trouble for him, and the big things of the country are beyond the reach of a woman like me."

The maid was anxious when she heard the words, but she didn't know what to say.

"Be sure to come back soon, dear."

……

"Tap Tap!"

There was a sound of horseshoes at almost the same frequency, and the ground undulated quite regularly. Even if they didn't need to look, everyone knew that it must be the Temple Army.

After several times in the Western Regions, only the Temple Army, the most powerful army in the Western Regions, can play horsemanship to this level!

Relying on this 3000-strong army, the Western Regions Protectorate has deterred the Western Regions Protectorate for decades. Those small countries are almost invincible.

"If the temple army does not arrive, there must be no war."

When the number of the Han army was insufficient, the combat effectiveness of the servant army was very hip, so there is this saying that the temple army has always undertaken the most difficult tasks.

Luo Shi raised his eyes and looked towards where he came from. He saw a group of knights dressed in temple army decoration who could easily control the horses at high speed, and then lightly controlled the deceleration. Watching these people riding horses even felt like a kind of enjoyment.

"The supreme descendant of Su Wang Shanghuangtian, the great high priest, I offer you my most sincere respect!"

After dismounting from their horses, these Temple Army knights from various countries in the Western Regions went directly to Luo Shi with the greatest courtesy. He once thought about correcting his address, but failed in the end, so he let it go.

The soldiers of the Temple Army are not puppets, but they have been blessed with a lot of buff halos under the effect of the artifact, and they will lose these after losing the blessing of the artifact.

With the arrival of the Temple Army, the rest of the soldiers gathered. The Western Regions may lack anything, but the only thing in abundance is horses.

In the Western Regions, even pawns are pawns on horseback.

But the fact is that no one knows how to ride a horse at all, even the Han people from the Central Plains, as long as they live here for a generation, they will grow up immediately.

The Han people here are not only farming, but also grazing.

The oldest tribes were all a combination of farming and grazing, but later the farming was too full to eat, so they gave up grazing.

Now that the Han people in the Western Regions have embarked on this road again, there is a powerful Central Plains behind them, and they are still in a key position on the commercial route, so that the Han people in the Western Regions do not need to rely entirely on farming to survive, and naturally they cannot give up grazing to ensure combat effectiveness.

More and more soldiers gathered, with swords and guns standing everywhere, the roar of countless war horses resounded through the clouds, and the sound of war drums beating.

The temple army surrounded Luo Shi and walked up to the high platform.

"His Majesty the Emperor of Chang'an sent an imperial decree to the Western Regions to recruit warriors from the Western Regions to attack the Xiongnu.

The soldiers of the Huns extended to the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and the horseshoes of the Huns broke through the stability of the Western Regions again.

The Han Dynasty ruled the Western Regions for decades, and it must have been more prosperous than when the Huns came here.

The brilliance of Su Wang Shanghuang is spread here, which can only be brought by Zhuxia, brandishing weapons and raising horseshoes to defend the glory of Su Wang. "

As soon as Luo Shi's voice fell, the sound of horses' hooves fell in unison, and all the soldiers of the temple army roared, and swords struck each other two by two.

There was a murderous atmosphere in the field. In this land, the concept of royal power has never been supreme. It is unstable to rule only by imperial power, and it still depends on the appeal of Su Wang.

"set off!"

----

After the decree was issued, Shi Nai sent five thousand cavalry from Wusun and Dawan, and [-] soldiers from the twelve kingdoms including Qicheshi and Qimi, all knights.

A school captain came in and said: "The countries in the Western Regions are out of order, please send [-] Han knights to fight to the death."

The world said: "The temple army is brave and brave. I lead the army in the town to overcome difficulties and overcome difficulties. If there is no one who can't be defeated, the army should not worry." —— "Hanshu Wushuanghou Family"
