Chapter 383: Why not, send it back!
In the main hall, the officials were furious.

All the generals stood up to fight for this opportunity.

A small country that had never been heard of dared to invade the territory of the Mauryan Dynasty.

It is simply a matter of life and death.

An army of 100,000 people can easily sweep away the opponent and gain considerable military exploits.

All the generals excitedly scrambled for such good deeds.

The powerful ministers also recommended candidates who wanted people from their own faction to have more military power.

Ashoka's expression did not improve.

He was slapped in the face in front of the Parthian envoys.

If only one country was destroyed, it would not be able to demonstrate the power of the Mauryan Dynasty.

His eyes were filled with murderous intent.

But his eyes were fixed on the carriages that stretched for several miles behind the Forbidden Army.

"The king of Bactria wants to take it too!"

After the words fell, the envoy's expression froze.

The barbarians knelt on one knee, and Han Xin bent down to salute.

"See Your Highness."

Ying Xuan has already led the imperial army to the junction of Caiyun Road and Wuchi Road.

"However! If your country intends to break its promise, it is not certain where to send more troops of one million under my king's command!"

Seeing the Forbidden Army coming from a distance, the army generals came to greet them one after another.

Stand up together and want to explain.

Following Ying Xuan all the way, he certainly understood what was contained in these carriages covered with coarse cloth.

Not only did he fail to find reinforcements for his country this time, but he caused a big trouble.

"In this way, this transaction is somewhat fair."

They are also equipped with three times the number of horses, and their usefulness is self-evident.

That's not what he meant!

"See Emperor Tianyu."

Ashoka's fierce look made the messengers shudder violently.

"No matter what threats there are on the east side, there's nothing to worry about."

When the Maurya Dynasty began to send troops to the east and west directions at the same time.

"But after your country has eaten and drank enough, you must immediately attack Bactria with the army and help me win this country!"

"My army can protect your country and swallow half of the Seleucids safely."

"Send another 100,000 troops to bypass Parthia from the northwest."

Ashoka narrowed his eyes and leaned forward to look down at the envoy.

He spoke respectful words, but his eyes were not on Ying Xuan at all.

Several other people beside him also looked anxious.

"Go north with your country and guard against Kushan on the east side."

They looked a little embarrassed and seemed to want to retreat.

……

After the words fell, the messenger's face turned pale.

But Ashoka didn't give them a chance at all.

After returning home, I am afraid that I will inevitably die.

"It's not just Qin that wants to fight."

The more distant east.

They just wanted the Mauryan Dynasty to increase its troops on the Kushan border as a deterrent.

After many years of fighting, the majesty conveyed to the outside world will be destroyed in one day.

Han Xin clenched his fists excitedly.

There was no intention of directly stationing the Mauryan army in the country.

Then I thought of His Highness asking me to bring an additional 30,000 light cavalry.

Han Xin waited for a long time with 230,000 cavalry.

Wouldn't it mean that if you can't drive the tiger to devour the wolf, you will be surrounded by the tiger instead!

Ashoka suddenly turned around and sat back on the throne again.

Somewhat impatiently wanted to check it out.

Ying Xuan glared at him and smiled slightly.

"Go ahead, this is for you."

Han Xin no longer cared about etiquette.

Holding the hem of the armor in one hand, he ran over with long strides.

When the coarse cloth was lifted, pieces of silver light stung people's eyes.

A long silver dragon appeared as far as the eye could see.

Han Xin was stunned.

The barbarians swallowed their saliva and froze in place.

"Are these all silver armors?"

"Five thousand silver armors will defeat us."

"There are still so many in the country?"

Watching Han Xin running in the middle of the carriage as if he was having fun.

The corners of Ying Xuan's mouth curled up.

This was the surprise Lu Hui prepared for herself before leaving.

A total of 10,000 heavy armors.

Ten thousand silver-armored heavy cavalry can be assembled.

Ying Xuan could not even imagine that any country on land in this era could withstand such an army.

Liu Bang, who was following him, also told Fan Kuai, Cao Shen and Zhou Bo.

"This is a hundred-refined silver armor. The armor for both men and horses weighs a total of one hundred and twenty kilograms (thirty kilograms)."

"Invulnerable to all evils."

"His Highness used five thousand silver-armored cavalry to kill hundreds of thousands of royal court cavalry one by one."

"If you can join in, you will have great success at your fingertips!"

The three people who said this were full of envy.

Fan Kuai looked longingly at the mighty and domineering soldier wearing silver armor.

"Then when can we get one?"

Cao Shen smiled slightly.

"There are nearly ten thousand armors here. As a close minister of His Highness, Brother Liu Ji, he will definitely be able to get one for us."

"Do you still have to worry about this?"

Zhou Bo beside him was also smiling, not doubting Liu Bang's ability at all.

"Ji Gong called us to come and take refuge, and now he mentions this matter, it must have been arranged."

"Why are you so anxious?"

"Really, Ji Gong?"

Liu Bang's face froze, he nodded with a smile and remained silent.

In the letter sent back to Peixian County, he claimed that he would follow His Highness every step of the way during the war.

He is already a close minister of His Highness.

But in fact, he has never made any military exploits.

He also has no confidence to ask Ying Xuan for anything.

This time, three people were invited to come.

It was also because he saw that Ying Xuan had too many generals under his command, and it would be difficult for him to achieve results by himself if he wanted to stand out.

That's why we roped in these people to work together.

Unexpectedly, I wanted to say a few more words to encourage them.

But he trapped himself in it.

It should not be the case now, and it should not be the case now.

Turning around and looking at the grateful and excited eyes of the three of them, Liu Bang still failed to tell the truth.

Then he looked at the excited Han Xin and gritted his teeth.

"That's all, at worst, I'll give up this old face and go to Han Xin's house to get three of them."

"We cannot let the three of them think that there is no way out for them as soon as they arrive."

Liu Bang didn't know that his anxiety at this moment was clearly seen by Ying Xuan from a distance.

As early as when the Forbidden Army arrived at Lujiang, Ying Xuan heard the report from the leader of the Forbidden Army.

Waiting for Liu Bang and a few others, some time was wasted.

At that time, Ying Xuan asked Fan Kuai, Cao Shen and Zhou Bo's name.

This is so greedy for Ying Xuan.

You know, these three are the mainstays of the Han Dynasty.

Although it is slightly lower than the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, it is only one head.

Fan Kuai sacrificed his life for the Savior at the Hongmen Banquet and was extremely loyal.

Cao Shen even followed Han Xin in his expeditions east and west, and successively put down the rebellions of Wei, Zhao, Qi and other countries.

After the founding of the country, rewards for meritorious deeds ranked second, second only to Xiao He.

Not to mention Zhou Bo, who defeated Zhao Bi, defeated Zhang Ping, surrounded Zhang Han, attacked Han Xin, and killed the Lu family who tried to usurp the power of the Han Dynasty.

Great credit.

These three people were right in front of them, and they looked like they had just left the village and had never seen the world before.

How could I let it go.

Ying Xuan has been thinking about how to integrate these three people smoothly along the way.

There are no signs of intentionality.

At this moment, three people were seen looking at Shining Armor eagerly.

Suddenly an idea came to mind.

……

A few days later, in the far northwest, the Kushan tribe had been captured.

Zhang Liang and Xiang Yu have cleaned up the thorns everywhere.

It was not until the remaining Bactrians no longer dared to show any dissatisfaction with the Kushan rule that the two began to examine the external situation.

Zhang Liang took Xiang Yu and several Qin army generals to discuss around the huge sand table in the room.

"Take this map left by His Highness as an example."

"The main threat we face now actually does not come from the West."

"The Seleucids on the west side have become increasingly declining."

"It seems like the territory is huge, but in fact, their control over the territory on the east side is getting weaker and weaker."

"And the newly emerging Parthia to their south is prospering."

"Without external force, I'm afraid Seleucus will be devoured by Parthia within a dozen years."

"The Kushan people are really lucky. The countries to the west now have no time to focus on the Kushan people."

"They can develop smoothly even without us stationed there."

Xiang Yu on the opposite side also nodded.

He shifted his gaze from the west to the south.

His face gradually became cautious. "Compared to the declining Seleucids in the west, the Mauryan Dynasty in the south is the real enemy."

"The current territory of Guishang County is just like the relationship between the Royal Court and the previous Great Qin."

“The north is high and the south is low, the north is nomadic and the south is farming.”

"Without this Parthia, if we want to continue to expand westward, we must set aside a lot of energy to defend against the Maurya Dynasty."

"It's so similar to when we fought with the Royal Court for the Western Region!"

Zhang Liang nodded in agreement and was about to continue analyzing the strength of this dynasty.

Suddenly there was a report outside the door.

"Report!"

"The people sent to the West to find out information are back."

Zhang Liang's eyes lit up and he ordered someone to bring them here.

This was the first thing he did when he occupied this place, specifically selecting a few weak Bactrian forces.

He was given some interest exchanges, and after being supported, he was allowed to go west to explore the situation in various countries.

It was the right time to come back now so that they could conduct a more accurate analysis.

As the guards went forward, a few Bactrians wrapped in turbans came respectfully after a while.

He bowed to a few people first, and then said.

"Now the Seleucid country is completely in chaos."

"Not only was the royal family captured because of Antiochus III, it set off several waves of killing each other to compete for the throne."

"Local forces in other places are also vying for independence."

"I heard that the westernmost Ptolemaic dynasty is about to reach the vicinity of the Seleucid capital at this moment."

These words made Zhang Liang look happy.

Xiang Yu also narrowed his eyes.

They still have Antiochus III in their hands.

If you use this to get involved in Seleucid, or exchange territory with it.

No matter what, it would be more beneficial than watching Seleucus collapse.

Xiang Yu licked his lips and looked at Zhang Liang.

"If you miss such a good opportunity, it will be difficult to meet again."

"And the collapse of Seleucid will probably completely enrich the Naparthian Kingdom."

Zhang Liang also agreed with Xiang Yu's words.

Just as the two were calculating how to obtain greater benefits from this feast.

Suddenly there was an urgent message outside the door again.

"Report!"

"Oh no!"

"The southern Parthians have marched into the interior of Seleucid!"

Before he finished speaking, Xiang Yu was already anxious.

"We can't watch them grow bigger!"

"Don't let me lead 30,000 troops and attack the eastern part of Seleucus."

"As much as you can take!"

But Zhang Liang frowned.

"No, then Parthia isn't worried about us sending troops?"

At this time, the Kushan tribe member continued to speak.

"No~ it's more than that."

"Coming north with them is the Mauryan Dynasty's 100,000-strong army."

"And these one hundred thousand did not participate in the battle against Seleucus at all, but kept approaching the east side of Kushan."

"It seems like they are going to attack us!"

These words made Xiang Yu's eyes suddenly widen.

Said somewhat angrily.

"How brave!"

"You dare to provoke us directly when you come up?"

"This Maurya Dynasty is really in a remote location, it makes Lard blindfolded!"

"Sir, let me go forward and lead 30,000 troops to kill them."

"Give these arrogant barbarians a long memory!"

When the Kushan tribesman said this, he looked like he wanted to stop talking.

Xiang Yu shouted loudly.

"If there's anything else, just finish it in one breath, don't keep harping on it."

The Guishang people trembled at Xiang Yu's fierce look.

Then he said slowly.

"The general of the Maurya Dynasty also sent people to shout to the defenders."

"Tell me to let Guishang hide in the nest."

"If you dare to think even a little bit about Seleucus, they will march in force and destroy this place!"

"He also said that I don't know where the Kushan ants came from."

"But remember clearly that only the Mauryan Dynasty is the real overlord of this land."

"Even if they conquer both countries at the same time, it will be easy for them."

When Xiang Yu heard this, his eyes widened in anger.

Instead, a smile appeared on his face.

"it is good!"

"What a Maurya."

“I really don’t know where the confidence comes from.”

Xiang Yu couldn't bear it any longer, so he turned around and shouted to Zhang Liang.

"gentlemen!"

"Can this be tolerated?"

"Your Highness leads us across the world, and we will bow to everyone wherever we go."

"Now that I have just arrived in the West, I am ridiculed by a group of barbaric and ignorant barbarians."

"It's just a disgrace to His Highness!"

"If this continues, how can we still intimidate other clans?"

After hearing this, Zhang Liang was not in a hurry to speak.

Instead, he looked at the sand table thoughtfully.

He said pointing to the Maurya Dynasty in the south.

"I didn't expect that the Maurya Dynasty is actually not far away from our Daqin Xigang."

"It's only separated by a high mountain."

Xiang Yu didn't understand Zhang Liang's words and was a little impatient.

But then Zhang Liang narrowed his eyes and said.

"Da Qin Xigang is an important base for His Highness to lay out the world."

"But at this moment, there is such a group of restless guys outside the port."

"If these arrogant people learn about the existence of Westport, wouldn't it completely hinder the navy's progress to the west?"

Zhang Liang raised his head, his expression gradually becoming dangerous.

Scan the generals present.

"You know, His Highness attaches great importance to the navy."

"Wouldn't it be wonderful if we removed this obstacle and opened a way for the navy to go west?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone present was stunned.

Even Xiang Yu blinked in shock for a moment.

He just wanted to defeat the opponent's army and shatter the pride of the Maurya Dynasty.

But Zhang Liang directly wanted to wipe out the entire Maurya Dynasty?

Good guy!
Xiang Yu didn't answer for a while.

The generals around also said with some worry.

"But the Maurya Dynasty is full of troops after all."

"I heard that there are millions of soldiers, and there are even elephant soldiers that we don't know about!"

"And we only have a total of 50,000 people stationed here."

"If we really go deep into the hinterland of the place, wouldn't it be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth?"

But Zhang Liang did smile.

"Didn't you hear what the other general said?"

"What does it mean to conquer two countries at the same time?"

"Doesn't this tell us that they are still fighting in other directions?"

This statement made everyone stunned.

Then he burst into laughter, that's right, I have never seen such a fool before.

Secrets are also disclosed to the outside world.

If the Maurya Dynasty fought on two fronts, there would be so much they could do!
The corners of Zhang Liang's mouth raised slightly.

"Send a message to Wang Li of the Western Regions."

"Let's bring 50,000 cavalry to help!"

"You won't let us touch Seleucus?"

"Then why don't we attack the Maurya Empire directly?"

These words made all the generals excited.

Only Xiang Yu sighed.

"This Seleucus is a nice piece of fat."

"We can't eat anything!"

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liang raised his eyebrows.

"Who said that?"

"It turned out that Seleucus collapsed because he lost his monarch."

"Then why don't we just send their monarch back?"

This statement once again surprised everyone.

"No!"

"That's because His Highness defeated us and captured us. He hates us to the core."

“If you put it back, wouldn’t you let the tiger return to its mountain?”

But Xiang Yu paused for a few breaths.

Then he suddenly smiled.

"it is good!"

"What a good plan!"

"Now they are fighting for the throne and we are sending Antiochus III back!"

"Then Seleucid doesn't put on a good show?"

"It's impossible to say that they can persist any longer."

"Until we have time to get back to it!"
