Chapter 109 Long Feather Long Night ([-])

tiger kingdom
Royal palace
"See Your Majesty!"

An envoy of the Sunga Dynasty respectfully knelt on the ground on one knee, and said respectfully to Wang Changyu who was sitting on the throne.

"Get up."

On the throne, Wang Changyu wore the emperor's twelve-pronged crown on his head, and wore a self-made Han emperor's uniform, and spoke majestically to the envoys of the Xunjia Dynasty below.

All of this is naturally translated by translators.

A few years ago, Wang Changyu led more than 9000 Han soldiers to invade the eastern territory of the Sunga Dynasty.

At that time, the old king of the Sunga Dynasty died suddenly, and many princes were fighting for power.

The eldest prince of Sunga was killed, and the fourth prince asked Wang Changyu to send troops to help him defeat the other brothers and brothers on the condition that he ceded the eastern territory and gave his sister to Wang Changyu as a marriage partner, so that the fourth prince could seize the throne of the Sunga Dynasty.

Wang Changyu agreed, and sent troops to help the fourth prince defeat the second, third, and fifth princes, and legally occupied more than a dozen cities in the eastern part of the Sunga Dynasty. According to his position as the general of Huwei, he established the Huwei Kingdom, and called himself King Huwei. It is a country of brothers with the Sunga Dynasty, and married the fourth prince and his sister as the queen.

Later, after discovering that the connection between the Han Dynasty and himself was completely cut off, Wang Changyu gradually developed a heart of arrogance, and asked people to imitate the emperor's dress and crown of the Han Emperor Liu Che. He still called himself King Huwei externally, but internally he called himself the Son of Heaven and the Emperor.

Although he was married to the Sunga Dynasty and was still a country of brothers, Wang Changyu often drove himself to conquer and plunder the borders of the Sunga Dynasty.

This distressed the fourth prince who had just become king of Sunga. As a new king who usurped the throne with the help of outsiders, the opposition forces in the Sunga Dynasty were very strong. The new king had to be busy guarding against rebel forces in the country. There was no time to guard against Wang Changyu's looting.

On the contrary, after the establishment of the Huwei Kingdom, in order to quickly replenish the population, Wang Changyu conquered the Pyu tribes who had disdain to conquer before, and forced the barbaric and backward Pyu tribes to migrate their population to his own King Huwei. Domestically, become your own soldier and follow yourself to conquer the Sunga Dynasty.

"The nobles in our country rebelled and wanted to overthrow our king. Our king asks you to send troops again to help my king suppress those rebellious nobles." The envoy of the Sunga Dynasty is very humble. His country is now suffering from internal and external troubles and the people are in dire straits.

"King Xunjia hopes that Your Majesty will send troops to suppress the rebellious nobles in Xunjia." The princess of Dianyue Kingdom translated.

She was captured by Wang Changyu, and later learned Chinese, Pyu, and Sunga from others, plus her mother tongue Dian, making her a multilingual talent.

The reason why she worked so hard to learn so many languages ​​is that the princess worried that she would be rewarded too after seeing her sisters being rewarded as toys.

Therefore, in order not to be rewarded, one cannot make a vase, it must be useful.

Therefore, after the Dianyue princess learned multiple languages, Wang Changyu was really reluctant to reward such a talent, but instead canonized the Dianyue princess as Guanglu Xun, one of the nine ministers, and made her a Marquis of Guannei.

Anyway, the big man can't get in touch here, so he, Wang Changyu, can come here whenever he wants.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Zhao Tuo could still call himself emperor in Nanyue, why couldn't my Wang Changyu call himself emperor while he was poisoned?
"How can my soldiers fight for other countries?" Wang Changyu smiled slyly, he was negotiating terms.

"The soldiers of our mighty country cannot fight for the benefit of other countries." Princess Dianyue translated.

"My lord, as long as you are willing to help my king to quell the civil strife, my king is willing to give you sixteen cities in the eastern region of Magadha."

"Hahaha! The country of brothers is in trouble, how can I not help?" Wang Changyu laughed heartily after getting the promise he wanted.

"Your Majesty is wise!" The palace ministers echoed one after another.

Some of these ministers were former officers of the Han army, some were elders of the Piao people, and some were leading parties with meritorious service.

They were promoted one after another by Huwei Emperor Wang Changyu. For example, the nobleman of Dianyue Kingdom was made a leader by Wang Changyu and became the prime minister of Huwei Kingdom because of his meritorious service in leading the way.

And a Han army marquis who followed Wang Changyu to the south was promoted by Wang Changyu as the Great Sima General and granted the title of Husband.

Seleucid Kingdom

Canaan area
This is an ancient civilization, where many civilizations meet. It is said that more than 1000 years ago, the prophet Moses escaped from Egypt with his slaves, got rid of the rule of the Egyptian Pharaoh, came to the Canaan area, and established many free city-states.

Now, this area is the last land of the Seleucid Kingdom.

Seleucid's eastern territory was occupied by Parthia, and the northern territory, including Antioch, was occupied by Rome.

clang--

clang--

shhhhhh!
"What's the sound outside?"

Inside the city, Wang Changye asked a down-and-out Seleucid nobleman beside him in Greek.

In the past few years, Wang Changye has roughly learned Persian and Greek, and has been able to communicate in the Anxi and Seleucid regions.

After working as a court musician in the royal palace of the Anxi Kingdom for several years, Wang Changye's alliance request was repeatedly rejected. In desperation, he had no choice but to continue westward to find new allies for the great man.

After coming to Seleucus for a few months, Wang Changye gradually got used to the life here, and also understood the general situation here.

Armenia to the north was an ally of Seleucus, Parthia to the east and Rome to the west were enemies, and Egypt to the south was in constant civil war.

"I heard that this Rome is very warlike. It often invades neighboring civilizations and plunders the people of other civilizations to serve as slaves. What it does is comparable to the tyranny of our Central Plains hundreds of years ago. Why don't we call it the Great Qin? "Wang Changye felt that the name of Rome was not pleasant, so he gave Rome a name from the Central Plains - Daqin.

"Our Seleucids may really be about to perish." The down-and-out nobleman of Seleucids sighed.

"There is no immortal country in the world." Wang Changye could only persuade his Seleucid friends in this way.

The dozen or so Han envoys who followed him to Anxi died of illness, and a few said that "I am happy here, but I don't miss Han". They chose to stay in the Anxi Kingdom as court musicians and were unwilling to continue westward.

Therefore, there were only four Han envoys who followed Wang Changye and continued westward to Seleucus.

I think that when we set off from Chang'an, there were still a team of two to 300 people, and now there are only these four people left. This trip to the Western Regions is really not something ordinary people can stick to.

Tread-tap-

At this time, the city gate opened, and a group of Roman cavalry rushed into the city.

"#@%¥#%¥#..."

Wang Changye couldn't understand Latin, so he could only raise his hands to surrender to the group of Roman cavalrymen, and shouted in Greek: "I am not a Seleucid, I am an envoy from Han, please don't hurt me, I want to see you." Ruler of Rome (Great Qin)."

The Romans conquered the Greek region very early. Although their soldiers still couldn’t understand Greek, some of them with a higher level of education could indeed understand Greek. So a Roman officer rode to Wang Changye’s side and spoke in Greek. He asked Wang Changye and the four Han envoys around Wang Changye: "Han country? I haven't heard of it, but since you are not Seleucids, I don't have to kill you. As for whether to forgive you, I will submit your request Submit it to the Senate, and the elders will make a decision."

"senate?"

Wang Changye was very confused. He heard about this kind of thing for the first time, and subconsciously thought it was similar to the imperial court meeting of a great man.
