Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 1067: Three Years of Peace

Chapter 1077 Making 30 Years of Peace
Night attack out of the city is mainly a strange word.If the enemy is unprepared, hundreds or thousands of people in the area will have a complete chance to destroy Wei's crossbows and eight-ox crossbows.Once the soldiers of Wei Guoan's Western Army were prepared, no matter how many people they went to, it would be useless.

Liu Yan nodded in agreement, so he immediately ordered to recruit soldiers in the city.This matter finally fell to Shi Butou, the general of Shi Guo.Shi Bu was unambiguous, and he also knew that there was no way out now.Just because the Jie people slaughtered more than 2000 Anxi army soldiers with despicable means, it is impossible for these Anxi army soldiers to let them go.Even if they surrender now, the Anxi army can spare the people in the city, but they will never let them off, the murderers who have been stained with the blood of the Anxi army soldiers.

Shi Bu immediately went down to look for someone, after a lot of trouble, what made him depressed was that the soldiers of the Shi army in the city and the young and strong in the city would not agree to be the soldiers.

Shi Bu had no choice but to take heavy rewards, and finally won more than [-] people who dared to die.In the middle of the night, the soldiers of Wei Guoan's Western Army finally stopped attacking after tossing around in the middle of the night, and let the servants go back to the camp to rest.

Ye Xian knew that if he wanted the horse to run, he had to let the horse eat grass.Therefore, in order to encourage the servants to fight bravely, Ye Xian rewarded the servants for their meritorious service.And promised that the family members of the soldiers who died in battle could be used as the Yi nationality of the Great Wei.Although the Yi nationality of the Great Wei is only a third-class citizen of the Great Wei Empire, even if they are a third-class citizen, their treatment is far from comparable to that of foreigners.This represents a kind of recognition. As long as they learn Chinese, they will have the opportunity to become naturalized citizens of Wei State, and they can even be promoted to nationality.

In later generations, the French foreign mercenary regiment was famous and powerful in combat.This is not only because of the high military salary, but mainly because as long as you have served for three years, you can obtain French nationality.With the rewards of a large amount of property, wine, meat and food, this made the servants of all countries extremely excited.Especially the temptation of not sealing the sword in Taluosi City is too great.

Shi Bu led more than 500 soldiers to sneak down from the city in a hanging basket, preparing to attack Wei's crossbows and eight bull crossbows.However, Shi Bu didn't know that Wei's crossbows and eight-ox crossbows were all mounted on chariots, and they could run away when fired.Mobility is very strong.Don't look at the ballista position that is only three hundred steps away during the day, but at night it is actually a pile of rotten wood, used as bait.

Shi Bu tiptoed to the firing position of the ballista of the Western Army of Wei State Anxi, and threw the kerosene skin on the ballista. It was only when the fire was lit that he realized that he had been fooled.

It was too late for him to retreat. The fire that was lit just now made them the best targets. As a result, more than [-] soldiers including Shi Bu were all shot and killed by the marksman of the Accumulation Shooting Battalion who had just made great achievements. empty.

Unlike the main force in Anxi led by Ye Xian, Liu Ke's journey went very smoothly.In fact, Liu Ke doesn’t work if it doesn’t go well. The capital of the Karnashuang Kingdom is in Qishi City (also known as Kesh, whose land is in Shahrisabz, Uzbekistan today.) The King of Karnashuang, Zhao Wudu, heard that the Wei Kingdom made a big move When he came to attack, he led the soldiers from all over the country to set up a big camp at Hungry Yangling, northwest of Qishi City, and prepared to resist stubbornly.

But when Zhao Wudumo saw a dense army appearing on the horizon, he was so scared that he almost peed.Faced with such a huge force, Zhao Wudumo, the king of the Karnashuang Kingdom, surrendered directly holding the king's seal and presenting the city without saying a word.

It is impossible for Zhaowudu to surrender. Jie Nashuang Kingdom is one of the nine surnames of Zhaowu in name, but its strength is too weak.Even Qishi City, the capital of the country, is called a city, but in fact it can barely be regarded as a relatively large village. It doesn't even have a city wall, but only surrounds an area with a radius of two miles with wood.Such a city is probably not as big as a Han township.

As Liu Ke occupied Qishi City, he immediately dispatched soldiers and horses to rush two hundred westwards to capture the Nasebo Kingdom.As a result, the Nasebo Kingdom was the same as the Karnashuang Kingdom. They surrendered without saying a word.Now the Nasebo Kingdom has already learned that the Heda Eastern Expeditionary Army was almost wiped out.At this time, the total population of the Nasebo Kingdom was less than 10. As for the army, although there were more than four to five thousand troops in the Nashuang Kingdom, more than half of these troops were mobilized by the Heda Empire, and they were finally consumed in stone. Under the city.A big country has the survival wisdom of a big country, and a small country also has the way of survival of a small country. Although they are powerless to resist the attack of powerful enemies, they don't care who rules them.Therefore, the Nasebo Kingdom and the Karnashuang Kingdom surrendered directly.Liu Ke wanted people, so they recruited young men and women as much as possible, and gave them food if they wanted food, and wealth if they wanted wealth.

After occupying the Kingdom of Karnashuang and the Kingdom of Nasebo, Liu Ke discovered that there were more than 10 countries in Central Asia, most of which had a population of less than [-] and only a few thousand soldiers.Liu Ke then changed the original battle plan, divided the infantry of the Anxi Army into battalions, and cooperated with a large number of servants to start a campaign.

On June [-], [-] in the era of the Yellow Emperor, Liu Ke's troops arrived in Tocharo (now Kundutu, a city in northern Afghanistan).When Liu Ke arrived in Tocharo, in fact, Ezhanah Yabu, who broke out from the desert three days ago, took the opportunity to control Tocharo.

With the eastward expedition of Enayu, he has almost exhausted the soldiers and horses in Tocharo City. At this time, there are only 45 old, weak, sick and disabled in Tocharo City.Ozanahe Yabu took the opportunity to seize control of Tocharo and established himself as the Khan of the Heda Empire.In order to ascend to the position of Khan, Ezhanahe Yabu slaughtered more than 15 civil and military ministers of Enagu's confidants in the city.After integrating the Tucharian soldiers, Ezhana He Yabu recruited all the Heda people under the age of [-] and over [-] years old in Tocharian. I have soldiers and horses.

Who would have thought that Liu Ke led the army so fast that Ezhanahe Yabu had no time to train the newly recruited army into an elite division. Under the hasty resistance, there were many mistakes and omissions.In fact, Liu Ke has only one 5000 infantry regiment around him, plus a cavalry battalion, with less than [-] troops.And left the luggage and supplies behind.Liu Ke just asked the [-]nd regiment to make a strong attack on Tocharian, so as to avoid being seen by the defenders of Tocharian and suffer a disadvantage.

But who would have thought that Li Shen, the colonel of the [-]nd Regiment, almost attacked the city wall after just some probing.In the middle of the night, a rebellion suddenly broke out in the city of Tocharo, and hundreds of remnants loyal to Enayu took the opportunity to seize the North Gate and hand it over to Liu Ke.Liu Ke decided to take a risky attack, and the Wei army entered the city in the middle of the night. At night when the sight was not wide, Ezhanahe Yabu didn't know how many soldiers and horses had arrived in Anxi.

Ezhanahe Yabu was already frightened by the Anxi army, so he did not organize soldiers and horses to defend immediately, but led more than ten thousand confidants to take the opportunity to escape.With Ezhana He Yabu's escape, Liu Ke's troops occupied the whole city of Tocharo.

When it was dawn, the Heda people finally discovered that Wei's army was actually less than one-tenth of theirs.Of course, this must include [-] to [-] soldiers and civilians in the city.When these Heda people surrendered their soldiers, another rebellion broke out.

Liu Ke was furious, and finally suppressed the sporadic rebellion with grenades and incendiary bombs.On the third day, the main force on the southern front and the servants led by Wei Guo Liu Ke arrived in Tocharo.Liu Ke also used the excuse that the Heda people in the city resisted the heavenly soldiers and refused to accept Wang Hua, and drove all the young and strong men in the city to the Penchi River, where more than [-] people drowned.

When Ezhanahe Yabu learned that Liu Ke used his horse to drive away the young men in Tocharo City to drown in the Panchi River, he was not only terrified but also angry.In any case, he is the Khan of the Heda Empire. If he does not make decisions for his subjects, he will never be recognized by the Heda people as a Khan.Now that the capital of the country is occupied by the state of Wei, it is impossible for him to just be a coward, as the saying goes, there is no need to bear it anymore.Ezhanahe Yabu was determined to fight back against the Wei army. He sent a letter to Patirobal, the southern general of the Heda Empire, asking him to abandon his past and lead his troops to support him for the benefit of the Heda Empire.

At this time, Patirobal, the southern warrior, was fighting against Mudara Gupta, the governor of the Juhad state of the Gupta Empire.At this time, the Juhad state of the Gupta Empire was as large as the central and southern areas of Punjab in northwestern India.The Governor's Palace is located in Mirheta (now Ludhiana).When the Gupta Empire was established, this was actually Juha Germany. After the Gupta Empire occupied this place, the Uhad State was established and the prince Mudara Gupta was sent as the governor.Although there were not many cavalry troops in the Gupta Empire, they were mainly infantry and elephant soldiers.However, in the Juhad area, the opposite is true. There are very many cavalry here.The Punjabis, Siyus, Sidhus, Gills, Sandhus, and Grewals are all nomadic peoples of the Gupta Empire, and they also grew up on horseback. nation on.

King Juhad Mudragupta was also a general who was good at fighting. Although his reputation was not obvious, and he won less and lost more, but he firmly resisted the attack of the Heda Empire. If he lost ground, he just lost Dozens of cities, including Lahore and Amritsar in the northwest, still occupy most of the territory of Juhad State.Especially last month, taking advantage of the large amount of water in the Suttledge Moon River, he used water as a soldier and ate up more than [-] Heda cavalry under Patirobal's command, which delayed the Heda army's attack.

As for the western generals, Ezhanahe Yabu didn't think about it, because he knew that the western generals Wu'er was Erna's confidant, and if Wu'er didn't lead troops to fight, he would be very proud.But Ezhana He Yabu did not wait for reinforcements from the southern generals of the Heda Empire, but instead waited for the army of Wei State.

After losing the capital city of Tocharo, Ozanahe Yabu led the remnants to retreat to Huolu City (now Balkh, Balkh Province, Afghanistan).Although Huolu City is a famous city, in fact it can only be regarded as a small town.And this city is still the old land of Tocharian Kingdom.As early as when the Heda Empire annexed the Tucharo Kingdom, it almost destroyed Huolu City.At this time, even the walls of Huolu City were incomplete, and it was impossible to defend against the city.

Although Ezhanahe Yabu clamored in front of his subjects to give Wei a good look, but he didn't dare to resist Wei's army in his heart.Therefore, when the rangers of the Wei state appeared in Huolu City, they were afraid that the Wei army would attack Huolu City, so they sent people to start negotiations with Liu Ke without authorization, hoping that the Wei army could retreat.

No matter what conditions Ezhanahe Yabu gave, they couldn't satisfy Liu Ke's appetite.What Ran Ming wanted was to expand Wei's territory to the Shuanghe Basin in the heyday of Tang Dynasty.In order to gain time, let the main force surround Huolu City.Liu Ke sent envoys to put forward some vague conditions, and made false claims with Ezhana He Yabu.Liu Keben had no intention of negotiating peace, so he ordered the Heda people who surrendered to Wei's army to sneak into Huolu City to spread the news that Ezhanahe Yabu wanted to negotiate peace with Wei. Zhanaghe Yabu was also very dissatisfied, and even some Heda warriors came to accuse Ezhanaghe Yabu with knives.

In the tradition of the Han people, the emperor needs strength and righteousness.At this time, Ezhanahe Yabu barely had the strength to command the surroundings, but he did not have the prestige to rule the whole country. With Ezhanahe Yabu losing streak in consecutive battles, and even negotiated and surrendered, this made the proud and arrogant Xi Da It is difficult for people to accept.Before Wei's army formally attacked, there were several incidents of army mutiny in Huolu City. Although they were all suppressed by Ezhanahe Yabu, Ezhanahe Yabu also knew that the Heda Empire seemed to be peaceful. Under the current situation, there is a rolling undercurrent hidden.

On the morning of July 170, 4000 in the era of the Yellow Emperor, Yemi City, located [-] miles southwest of Huolu City, sent more than [-] cavalry to support Huolu City.On July [-], more than [-] reinforcements from Hushijian City (near Ganbashir, Afghanistan today) arrived in Huolu City.On July [-]th, when Liu Ke saw the reinforcements of the Heda Empire gathering towards Huolu City, Liu Ke was furious, saying that Ezhana and Yabu had no intention of peace talks.Immediately, an attack operation code-named "Punishment" was launched to preemptively strike first.Liu Ke ordered the Zhenwei Army to attack Huolu City.

The entire army of the Zhenwei Army was reorganized from the soldiers who were defeated in the Syr Darya, and their combat effectiveness was not weak.

Although Huolu had no less than [-] Lida troops at this time, due to the great loss of prestige of Ezhanahe Yabu, the defenders were not twisted into a single rope.In particular, Living Road City has no city defense advantage at all.Although Huolucheng Heda was brave and tenacious, he was eventually outnumbered. The Zhenwei army and tens of thousands of servants launched an active attack, and Huolucheng was finally broken by the Wei army.

Ezhanahe Yabu led more than [-] remnants of his troops and broke out in the dark.Ezhanah Yabu retreated to Yemi City in the southwest of Huolu City (in today's Sarpul Province, Afghanistan). Ozana He Yabu was still unwilling to fail, and mobilized troops to prepare for a counterattack.On July [-], Patirobal, the southern general of the Heda Empire, led an army of [-] and returned from Juhad State of the Gupta Empire.Although Patirobal was very dissatisfied with Ozanakh Yabu's successive failures, he even established himself as Khan.But now the Heda Empire is in turmoil, and it really can't stand the toss.Patirobal persuaded Urdu to temporarily unite with Ezhanah Yabu to resist the Wei army for the sake of the overall situation.

At the end of July, Ozhana Heyab and Patirobar's reinforcements were defeated by Liu Ke again using rockets and bombs. However, this time because Ozhana Heyab had prepared ahead of time, although Liu Ke defeated Ezhana again He Yabu, but beheading is not much.

At the end of July, the Heda Imperial Army had already lost Gaofu City (in present-day Kabul, Afghanistan), Hexina (in present-day Ghazni, Afghanistan), Hesaro City (in present-day Jusharistan, Afghanistan) and other areas.

Until mid-August, Urdu led more than 14 cavalry of the main force of the western war generals of the Heda Empire, and joined forces in Herat on the upper reaches of the Heli River. All the troops and horses assembled more than [-] people.He had enough troops and autumn was coming, so he decided to counterattack from three sides at the same time, trying to defeat Liu Ke's main force in one fell swoop and regain the lost ground.As a result, Liu Ke surrendered too many surrendered troops at this time, and the army swelled to nearly [-] horses. A large number of wounded soldiers from the Battle of Stone City also returned from their injuries.

Although the Heda Empire is powerful, it is a mess in governing the country, making all the ministries of the enslaved countries resentful.At this time, seeing that the Heda Empire was gone, there were not many tribes who worked with it.It can be said that Ezhana He Yabu has mobilized the final strength of the Heda Empire.

Knowing that the last army of the Heda Empire concentrated in Ezhana Heyab was fighting him, Liu Ke said: "The Heda Empire is over, and the Heda nation will soon become history, a cloud of the past!"

Liu Ke said to Zhao Xun: "Back then in Huolu City, if the general hadn't let him go on purpose, he would have been a dead bone. However, Ezhanahe Yabu was determined to fight against the general by gathering tens of thousands of troops. The big movement only dragged down the lives of 10,000+ people. The first battle in Stone City made us have no worries in Lingxi for ten years. After today, Lingxi can maintain peace for at least 30 years.”

Zhao Xun nodded and said, "What about 30 years later?"

"After 30 years?" Liu Ke showed a contemplative look, and said for a while: "Your Majesty is planning, and it is estimated that the chess situation will be completed in 30 years, and there will be no opponents in the world. Using 30 years, Our Great Wei Dynasty was able to build the railway from Yecheng to Suiye. At that time, the soldiers from Yecheng could be transported to any place in Lingxi in full armor within a month by railway transport, commanding these local chickens and dogs , how can you resist my great Wei Wangshi's thunderous blow?"

Zhao Xun said: "There is a message from the court, it seems that the people in Hexi have begun to make moves, and it is estimated that it will be bad for the general!"

"Since the Heda Empire has been destroyed, this general's contribution can be compared to that of Wei Huo, but all ministers are afraid of the master's achievements! Liu Ke is no exception." Liu Ke said: "This time the Anxi Army marched west, leaving a little Flaws, just to give those people the truth. Using Liu Ke's head to appease the anger of those people should be enough. This general knows what he is doing, and so does His Majesty. His Majesty will never treat Liu Ke's descendants badly. .”

In fact, Liu Ke is also very clear, he knows that Ran Ming will definitely not compromise with the Hexi gang, but it is still necessary to suppress him.As long as the limelight is over, he might change positions with Senior Brother Chen.In fact, Liu Ke's attack on the southern front went smoothly, and Zhao Xun's contribution is not small.Through the aftermath of the Battle of the Syr Darya in Stone City and Liu Ke's successive victories, Zhao Xun had room to give full play. He and the tribe were drawn together in various ways, and even many people around Ezhanahe Yabu secretly communicated with Liu Ke.
