Chapter 1146 Decision based on strategy
  ...

Lu Min looked at the slowly closing city gate and the crowded and noisy crowd, and couldn't help but shake his head.

Sure enough, when it comes to empires and non-imperial countries, the difference between side dishes and main dishes is basically just different plates.

They all ran to the gate of the capital before they thought of closing the door. No one else could react this quickly.

Do you really think that since you have more soldiers, the cavalry running outside the capital are all your own soldiers?

"Zhiran, what do you mean?" Wan Peng looked at the closed city in front of him with confusion, and looked at Li Jue with a puzzled expression, "The other party wrote to us. After we come, no one will welcome us. Just forget it. , why are you closing the city tightly and not letting us in!"

Li Jue looked around, with a confused and confused look on his face, then took out the letter from his sleeve, read it carefully, then checked the name of the city, and nodded on the spot.

He was used to seeing a large group of cavalry roaring past in the Western Regions at every turn, and Li Jue was also used to galloping along with the cavalry.

I have never considered what kind of mentality King Wusun had when he heard the news that Li Jue led the Xiliang cavalry army to attack the border.

The trembling King Wusun gritted his teeth and walked from his palace to the city wall. Looking at the scene outside the city, especially the 'Han' flag in his memory, he couldn't help but relax. tone.

If the visitors were the Huns, I'm afraid it would be a very difficult day.

However, after seeing the army of Li Jue and others, King Wusun frowned on the spot, and then sighed heavily.

Relying on the quality and appearance of equipment to evaluate the eliteness of an army is the easiest and fastest way for a normal person to estimate the combat effectiveness of an army.

As for seeing the inside through the external minister, distinguishing the elite talents of soldiers with only the naked eye, etc., these advanced abilities are obviously not reflected in King Wusun.

For King Wusun, the Xiliang cavalry, who wore leather armor and had relatively simple weapons, were no different from his guards.

And judging from the painting style, his guards are obviously more pleasing to the eye.

If it were the army of other small countries, they would have such equipment and show such momentum and quality.

King Wusun praised him in high and low terms to express his approval and praise.

But what kind of army is this? This is the army of the Han Empire, the Han Empire that as long as the name is announced, other countries have to retreat three points, the Han Empire that no one dares to face for hundreds of years!

It would be fine if they were ordinary cavalry, but this unit is said to be elite cavalry from the Han Empire.

Is this the result? Just this kind of equipment? The same thing as his bodyguard? How much combat effectiveness can this kind of army have?
  King Wusun made a little evaluation in his heart. He felt that he was at most stronger than his own guards, and he estimated that they were only among the best.

But compared to the Huns' elite cavalry, his guards were not even worthy of carrying shoes.

That kind of battle damage exceeding 1:10 made King Wusun tremble and fearful.

After carefully observing the Xiliang cavalry and confirming that there was nothing else going on, King Wusun sighed and felt that the mountain pressing on his head and the pressure behind him were nothing more than that.

No, at least we can't make a decision yet. We have to test it out more before we can make a choice.

King Wusun, who wanted to make up his mind, thought about the combat effectiveness and record of the Han Empire in the past. Out of caution, he still chose to hesitate and did not immediately take sides.

As for the battle between the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and other small countries in the Western Region, in the eyes of King Wusun, it was just the same thing. Although the battle damage ratio is extremely high, the armies of small countries are small in number and their combat effectiveness is relatively poor.

There are only one or two who are capable of fighting, and the others can be said to be just showing off.

No matter how high the battle loss ratio is, in the eyes of King Wusun, it really doesn't have much value.

Among the thirty-six countries in the Western Region, most small countries can exist because of the existence of the Western Region Protectorate.

The Western Region Protectorate established by the Han Dynasty was itself endorsed by the Han Dynasty. All countries had been certified and recognized, and it was difficult to attack each other. Otherwise, they would be against the Han Dynasty.

Under such circumstances, even the most powerful Wusun Kingdom would not be able to take such risks and forcibly destroy other rubbish countries.

But that was then, not now.

After the strength of the garrison captains in the Western Regions Protectorate began to be significantly weakened, King Wusun already had an idea, but due to the pressure of the Han Dynasty, he just gave it a thought.

Especially the abilities and the number of troops he heard from others about the military commander who was replaced later made King Wusun give up his idea for a time.

According to the rules left by previous kings, he completed the tasks assigned by Colonel Shu Ji very obediently, and at the same time handed over the command of the army to Captain Shu Ji.

The mission assigned by Colonel Shu Ji was to reconnaissance and search for the Huns. In order to complete this mission, King Wusun lost a lot of troops, and the shadow of the Huns was even heavier in his heart.

Even in the royal capital, an envoy from the Huns came, which made King Wusun a little afraid.

The Huns envoy provided him with many favorable conditions and allowed him to take sides, just like he did hundreds of years ago.

But at least King Wusun, who had some strength, relied on his own abilities to get some time for temporary thinking and choices.

Now that the troops led by Captain Shu Ji had already made the hesitant King Wusun feel a little biased in his heart.

However, it is still too early for King Wusun to really make up his mind.

Certain news and intelligence must be verified before they can be used, and you cannot just listen to the Huns' one-sided words.

Of course, he also knew that the country was divided into two factions, one supported the Han people and the other supported the Huns. Constantly appeasing the two factions gradually exhausted his energy.

If we cannot make the most correct choice, I am afraid that this country will disappear into the long river of history before long, even if it was once so powerful.

Weng Guimi, the king of Wusun who once made the Wusun country powerful, left behind the biggest hidden danger.

A hidden danger that is incomprehensible to a people like them.

"Go, find someone to inform the minister, go and contact the Han general, and confirm your identity!" King Wusun turned to the lying soldiers and gave instructions.

Although it is located in the Western Region, after all, due to the influence of Han culture caused by Princess Jieyou, among the upper-level bureaucrats in the entire country, there are still many people who can understand and explain the Chinese language. Of course, there are also people who can understand the Xiongnu language. people.
