A Millennium Aristocratic Family Starting from the Shang Dynasty

Chapter 385 Why is Hu Er so expensive?
After several years of continuous immigration, a large number of people migrated to the four counties of Hexi, making the four counties of Hexi full of vitality.

In particular, Wang Jing specially arranged for some migrating people to return to their hometown to visit relatives, and told those people about the situation in the four counties in Hexi.Let more people migrate there.

After all, although the environment here is worse than that of the Central Plains, it is not as competitive as the Central Plains.In addition, in order to develop the four counties in Hexi, the imperial court had policy preferences for the four counties in Hexi, which was enough to make the people live a better life.

Therefore, from the 21st year of Tianming to the 26th year of Tianming, the population of the four counties in Hexi has exceeded 70 in five years.

In addition, the four counties in Hexi have many horse farms, which not only produce war horses, but also produce a large number of horses.Some of these horses will be sent to various places for sale, and some will be sold to local people at low prices.

Therefore, almost every household in the four counties of Hexi has horses.Horse plowing also appeared here, which was different from other places.

God-given city in the Western Region.

When the first batch of expedition men arrived, Wang Bo was already ready.

Because of the Divine Spring, the farmland in Tianci City is very fertile. Since the Wang family took root in Tianci City, they have cultivated millions of acres of fertile land. Tianci City diverts the spring water through ditches and connects all the small oases around it.

After years of development, the scope of these oases has been slowly expanding, and now they are all connected to Tianci City.

The original Gobi Desert has become a fortress in the south of the Yangtze River, which is also known as the God-given land.Today there are 20 people living in this God-given land.

At that time, the imperial court moved thousands of clans here. After years of multiplication, the number of Gan people exceeded [-].There are even more than [-] hybrids with Ganren.

It can be said that this place has become an important base for Daqian in the Western Region.

Outside Qiuci City, shouts of killing were heard one after another.

Wang Bo led [-] troops from the Western Region Protectorate, [-] expeditionary men, and [-] protective knights arrayed outside the city.

After Daqian defeated the Xiongnu, most of the small countries in the Western Regions surrendered, and many even went to Luoyang to worship.

Many small barbarian countries were shocked by the prosperity of Deep Luoyang, but some small barbarian countries found that Daqian was too far away from the Western Regions.Even if Daqian is strong, it is very difficult to project its power into the Western Regions.

So some countries in the Western Region began to have thoughts that they shouldn't have.

Among them are Wusun, Qiuci and some countries further west.In their thinking, the Huns were defeated and no longer a threat, and the Central Plains was thousands of miles away, so the Western Region was theirs.

Therefore, some small countries dared to be rude to Qian's envoys, and even sent people to attack and kill Qian's envoys.

Seeing this situation, Wang Jing was furious, so he sent out an expedition to Erlang, gave them soldiers, armor, and food and allowed them to follow the Western Region Protector in the crusade against Qiuci.

The Qiuci Kingdom has a population of more than 8 in the Western Region, but because it is on the trade route, it has a lot of money and has [-] soldiers.It is the strongest country in the Western Region besides Wusun.

But this power is only compared to the countries in the Western Regions.The local matching mechanism of the Western Region countries would have been destroyed countless times if it had been in the Central Plains.

Wang Bo led an army of [-] people to form a formation outside the city. Kucha State recruited all the troops from other cities in order to defeat Dagan in one battle.

In addition to these eight thousand troops, Wang Bo also had many soldiers drawn from other countries.The first thing that started was the fighting between the soldiers of Kucha Kingdom and these small countries.Daqian just sent some archers to assist.

The two sides fought outside the city until the afternoon, when the soldiers of the small country could no longer hold on and withdrew in embarrassment.

"This Qiuci Kingdom still has some skills!" Wang Bo said with a smile as he looked at the battlefield.

Yukduo was very happy to see that the army defeated Ganjun, so he sent a large army to attack him, hoping to completely defeat Ganjun in one battle.In the past, under the excellent matching mechanism of the Western Regions, few battles could last so long. Usually, the cavalry would win a wave of battles, and then use the cavalry to intimidate the opponent. Once the opponent wavered, the army would press for a decisive battle and defeat it.

But in today's battle, those archers were so powerful that his cavalry couldn't attack them at all, so they could only fight with infantry.

As a result, the battle lasted for more than three hours, and even the soldiers had been taking turns to play for a while, but even so, they were getting heavier and heavier when walking in their armor.

"Your Majesty, the main force of the Ganren are the soldiers. Just defeating these people will not cause any damage to them. How about pressing forward with the army, driving the defeated troops into the formation, and then defeating the Ganren in one fell swoop!"

King Yukduo of Qiuci looked at the Gan people, then nodded in agreement, and immediately ordered the army to press forward.

As soon as Yukduo changed his formation, Wang Bo noticed it immediately.

Three thousand soldiers of the Guardian Knights have arrived on both sides of the battlefield.

"Warriors of Daqian, King Qiuchi dares to attack and kill the envoy of Qian. He has committed a heinous crime. He is now the wife of Yinzi. Kill him!"

In the sky, at some point, the dark clouds dissipated slightly, and a ray of golden sunlight shone down, just falling on Wang Bo, reflecting him like a god.

When the surrounding soldiers saw such a miracle, they immediately shouted: "King Wen is above, kill him!"

Amidst the thundering roar, the army immediately ran towards the Kucha people's formation.The three thousand Guardian Knights' horseshoes were like thunder, rushing towards the Kucha people like a torrent.

Arrows fell all over the sky. The Guardian Knights were already good at riding and shooting, and they also had the Three Treasures of Cavalry. Their strength far surpassed that of the Kucha people. For a time, a large number of Kucha people were shot directly off their horses, and then they were trampled into pulp by the war horses in an instant. .

Along with the continuous rain of arrows, Kucha's cavalry team soon suffered a large number of casualties, and the formation became sparse, while the charging Guardian Knights charged past the Kucha cavalry.

The long sword swept across and a large number of Kucha people were killed.

Followed by Yuanzheng Erlang, he attacked the defeated Kucha army that had been scattered into rout, and drove them to attack other Kucha army formations, while he hid behind. Once the Kucha people's army formation was In the chaos, these people immediately attacked and killed them.

Then he led more defeated troops to attack other military formations.

The two thousand cavalrymen of the Western Region Protectorate kept looking for the Kucha army formation that was still capable of fighting, and then fired fiercely with their strong bows. Once the army formation could no longer hold up, they immediately launched a charge to disperse it.

The Qiuci people couldn't defeat the Huns, that is, they were in front of a small country in the Western Regions. How could they be the opponent of the Daqian Iron Cavalry?
Originally, they could still fight for one or two rounds in a state of complete victory, but after fighting for three hours, the Kucha people couldn't stand it at all.

When the army is defeated like a mountain, people follow blindly. After encountering an enemy that cannot be defeated, the soldiers will choose to flee for their lives, and one person's escape will bring more people with him, and finally the army will be completely defeated.

Wang Bo led his army to defeat an army formation again. Seeing that King Kucha's banner was very close, he immediately ordered two thousand fine cavalry to rush straight into King Kucha's army formation.

When Yukduo saw the rout on the battlefield and the overwhelming force of the cavalry rushing towards him, he was so frightened that he did not dare to stay. He abandoned the army and fled back to the city.

Wang Bo led his army to easily break through the obstruction. When he saw King Kucha escaping, he cut down King Kucha's flag with a knife, and then shouted: "King Kucha has escaped!"

Hundreds of people shouted in unison, and soon everyone on the battlefield heard it.

Seeing the general fleeing, the Kucha army could no longer hold on and was defeated. Wang Bo led his troops to pursue him one after another. The Kucha army suffered heavy casualties and numerous surrenders.
