Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 1019 Changes in the Situation of the Western Regions
"But the second general has been gone for a long time, what should I do if I can't catch up?"

Huang Zhong panicked, Zhang Xiong is the Duke of Shu, if something happens, none of them can afford it.

"This is the end of the matter. Let's not worry about the Second General. Let's discuss the current situation." Cao Cao said.

"I'd like to ask General Cao to make up his mind. Before I set off for the expedition, His Majesty has explained that everything we have to do in the Western Regions will be obeyed by General Zhengxi." Huang Zhong said.

Wu Shun did say that, both Zhang Xiong and Huang Zhong can lead troops to fight, but Cao Cao has a greater advantage in commanding in the middle.After all, a person who has been a king has more courage to make decisions.

Huang Zhong's words made Cao Cao feel Wu Shun's trust.

"Your Majesty trusts Cao Cao so much, Cao Cao is ashamed." Cao Cao felt that he was unfavorable, and he was ashamed of Wu Shun's trust.

"General Cao doesn't need to be like this. The Western Expedition Army was not familiar with the environment before. Now that I have joined the White Tiger Army, the strength of the Western Expedition Army has increased. In addition, with General Mulu, the poisonous insects of the Western Regions have no effect. The real swords and guns Even the Allied Forces of the Western Regions will not be able to stop our advance." Huang Zhong said.

Through the battle just now, Huang Zhong already had a general understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Western Region Allied Forces.

In any case, [-] Western Region coalition troops are not enough to fight in an upright manner.

"That's true. The weather in the Western Regions is unpredictable, and there is drought and water shortage. To fight for a long time, you must find a source of water." Xiahou Dun said.

"We are not familiar with the place, how can we find the water source?" Xu Chuweng said angrily.

Cao Cao explained that in front of Huang Zhong and others, he cannot be called the lord, which made Xu Chu a little unaccustomed.

"Generals, our army has captured many soldiers from the Western Regions just now, and we can find some of them who are willing to serve us and find water for us." Mu Lu suggested.

"That's a good idea. How about sending General Mulu to surrender?" Cao Cao said.

"The last general obeys orders!" Mu Lu took orders.

"This matter has been agreed upon. Now that the coalition forces in the Western Regions have collapsed, King Wusun and Queen Shache have escaped. In order to prevent them from forming another coalition force, the army will rest for three days and continue to move forward!" Cao Cao said again.

"Yes!" the generals replied.

There is nothing wrong with Cao Cao's order, and the generals have nothing to add.

If the army continues to move forward, it will be the boundary of Shache Kingdom, and it will definitely be attacked by force.Behind Shache Kingdom is Wusun Kingdom, known as the most powerful country in the Western Regions.

……

Just as Cao Cao, Huang Zhong and others were discussing how to advance, Zhang Xiong killed all the way to the territory of Wusun Kingdom.

Why is Zhang Xiong so fast?

That's when he gave full play to the bandit's style, entered the desert, and the supplies couldn't keep up, so Zhang Xiong led his troops to attack all the way forward.

Fight for war!

Everything that can be robbed is taken. Of course, what the soldiers rob the most is food and water.This is also the truth that Zhang Xiong understood after experiencing the baptism of wind and sand several times.

In today's Wusun Kingdom, the king fled back after being defeated, and his face was greatly damaged. However, he learned that an army of more than 1 people was attacking the territory of Wusun Kingdom. The army that made waves.

But before leaving, he received a request for help from Queen Shache!
The Kingdom of Shache is about to be attacked by the people of the Central Plains. The Queen of Shache hopes that the Kingdom of Wusun will see the relationship between the two countries and send troops to help Shache overcome the difficulties.

When Wusun King was in a dilemma, Zhang Xiong successively captured three cities of Wusun Kingdom, robbed countless supplies, and approached the capital Wangcheng.

How could King Wusun have the mood to support Shache Kingdom at this time?

The Shache Kingdom hasn't been attacked yet, and the people here are almost hitting the king's city. For Queen Shache, King Wusun is helpless.

In the current situation, they can only sweep the snow before themselves!
Zhang Xiong's army's attack along the way was very smooth, and there was a very important reason-the Western Regions coalition forces were concentrating on dealing with Cao Cao.The troops of the Western Regions facing the northern front are very weak, coupled with the bravery of the heavy infantry of the White Tiger Battalion of the White Tiger Legion, the generally low walls of the Western Regions cannot stop them at all.

……

On this day, Zhang Xiong went to the city of Wusun King. He shouted for Wusun King to surrender, but Wusun King ignored him.

The White Tiger Legion brazenly launched an attack!

Gao Shun commanded the White Tiger Battalion to charge up to the top of the city, and went on a rampage, killing countless enemies.

Three days later, King Wusun was forced to surrender!

Because the nobles in the country are persecuting him!No surrender!

After capturing Wusun King City, Zhang Xiong wanted to send troops to attack the neighboring Shache Kingdom.One day after the army set off, the two armies met at the border of Shache Kingdom.

It turned out that under the unified command of Cao Cao, the Western Expeditionary Army and the White Tiger Army jointly launched an offensive against the Shache Kingdom. They rushed to the royal city in one day, and the siege battle lasted only one day before the Shache Kingdom surrendered.

Cao Cao issued the order that if you don't surrender, you will surrender, which really frightened Queen Shache.

After joining forces, Cao Cao led his troops to Wusun Kingdom, because the Huns were to the north of Wusun Kingdom, and these Huns should be called the Northern Huns, because the Southern Huns had surrendered long ago.

Now that he is here, Cao Cao of course wants to defeat the Huns again!

However, before Cao Cao mobilized troops, the Xiongnu ran away. They did not flee for their lives, but went to seek the protection of the Anxi Kingdom.

In the west of the Western Regions, there are two relatively powerful countries-the Anxi Empire and the Guishuang Empire.There is naturally constant friction between these two countries. In order to be able to overwhelm each other in strength, they are extremely fancy about the ownership of the countries of the Western Regions.

However, due to concerns about the Central Plains, the two countries have not done anything.Of course, there are also reasons for the alliance of the countries of the Western Regions.

The previous Han Dynasty had a great influence on the Western Regions, and the entire Western Regions only followed the Han Dynasty. If the Anxi Empire and the Guishuang Empire wanted to move the Western Regions, they had to consider how the powerful Eastern Empire would react.

The envoys of the Northern Huns went to the Anxi Empire and explained in detail about the invasion of the Western Regions by the Kingdom of Shu. However, King Anxi was not very surprised when he heard the news.

The Huns were afraid of people from the east, but they were not afraid of the Anxi Empire.

Now King Anxi is afraid that once he uses troops, the Guishuang Empire will make big moves behind him.

You must know that in the west of them, there is a Persian country that is growing rapidly!

Whether it is the Parthian Empire or the Guishuang Empire, they all want to crush this little Persia to death, but they restrict each other, and no one can secretly become stronger.

It is precisely for this reason that the Persian kingdom that survived in the cracks took advantage of the mutual restraint between Anxi and Guishuang, and its national strength grew extremely fast.

……

"Second General, it's time for us to report the results of the battle to His Majesty. The countries around the entire desert in the Western Regions are willing to surrender, and the kings of all countries are willing to submit to Your Majesty." Cao Cao said to Zhang Xiong.

Cao Cao is the general of the Western Expedition, presiding over all matters of the Western Expedition, but Zhang Xiong, the Duke of the State, is here, and Cao Cao will still ask for his opinion if he has something to do.

"General Cao. Let all the countries in the Western Regions send a member of the royal family to the capital to pay homage to His Majesty." Zhang Xiong said.
