The journey has not been smooth sailing.After the conquering king passed away, his generals took control of his vast territory in the east and established a huge dynasty - Seleucus.
It's just that a hundred years have passed, the glory of that dynasty is no longer there, the isolation of the region, and the internal corruption have caused the rebellion of the subjects.Whether it is the aborigines within the dynasty or the people who migrated from Macedonia within the dynasty, they are unwilling to be under the rule of the dynasty.
Parthia and Bactria became independent one after another, and Egypt to the west of Seleucus and the rise of Rome also threatened the rule of the dynasty.
After ten years of migration and struggle, the Yuezhi moved westward all the way, left the Western Regions, competed with the nascent Bactria for several years, and finally obtained a large piece of land between the Great Qin and Bactria.And the girl Alia also established her own powerful knights in the battle along the way.
Regarding this emerging force, the surrounding countries have completely different attitudes.Bactria naturally wants to deal with it quickly, while Parthia is ambiguous.
As for Seleucus, the attitude was subtle.On the one hand, it does not recognize the independence of Bactria. In its official map, the land occupied by the Yuezhi is still in the Seleucid territory.On the other hand, Seleucid's war in the west has been extinguished. Since his succession to the throne, the ambitious Antiochus III has been committed to expanding eastward and recovering the land that Seleucus had lost in the east for decades.
In this case, Seleucus would naturally be happy to have a force to contain Bactria in the east.
As for the south, after the death of King Ashoka, the Maurya Dynasty, the domestic politics were not stable, and the monarch who had just succeeded to the throne was not well-received.For the Yuezhi, which is still a small force now, they have never taken it seriously.
To the east of the Yueshi is the Western Regions vassal states of the Great Qin, and Dawan and Wusun are two of them.
Dawan turned a blind eye to Yuezhi's attitude.Anyway, the land controlled by the Yue clan has never cut off trade with the Western Regions.
And Wusun, since he was defeated by Zhang Han's [-] cavalry army in the Qilian Mountains ten years ago and surrendered to the Great Qin, he has repeatedly rebelled and been suppressed in the past few years.Wusu moved westward all the way and was adjacent to Dawan.
Both the Yueshi and Wusun were defeated by Qin, and their land and country were destroyed, which was painful.
Therefore, Wusun's new successor, the young prince, always wanted to unite with the Yuezhi, advance eastward, and resist Daqin.
This is also the reason why Queen Yuezhi recalled Aaliyah.
"Alia, the experience of the past ten years is like a dream. I still can't believe it. We have established a firm foothold and have our own territory in this strange region."
Queen Yuezhi was slender, with wheat-colored skin exuding a youthful atmosphere under the almost transparent goose-yellow Hu skirt.As she grows older, Mia's appearance becomes more and more beautiful.That innocent smile and kind heart attracted warriors one by one to join him.
Alia smiled: "Your smile is the treasure guarded by our knights."
"By the way, Alia. The new king of Wusun sent envoys to form an alliance with us and deal with our common enemy Daqin. What do you think?"
Having said that, Alia stopped in her tracks and said softly, "Mia, my queen. Do you want to return to the old homeland and restore the glory of Yueshi?"
Mia also stopped walking, and the graceful aura exuding from her body was enough to make any man bow down under her skirt.The queen of the Yue family thought of the young man with a gentle smile in Zhaowu King City many years ago, who was also the chief culprit who caused her to leave her hometown. Her eyes became extremely firm and she clenched her hands.
Mia looked at Aaliyah and said: "I want to go back, I want to regain the Yueshi's homeland, I want to defeat Qin, our Yueshi's fateful opponent. I want that man to be in my Bow his high head before him. But I know I can't do it alone. I need your help, Aaliyah."
Facing the girl's expectation, Alia responded, "I understand, we can form an alliance with Wusun, but we can't go east now."
"Why?" Mia didn't understand. Not long ago, Aaliyah sent a large number of troops to the border, why did she say she couldn't go east now?
"King Wusun is eager for revenge, but the current Daqin is just like the Japanese, and it is not wise to join hands with him to advance eastward at this moment. Moreover, the news from the caravan on the commercial road. Launching a large-scale campaign against the Hu people in the north, the number of troops dispatched alone is hundreds of thousands."
"Hundreds of thousands!" At this time, Mia yelled in surprise, and her confidence in vowing to restore the country just now stagnated.Although Yueshi's warriors are good at fighting, they have few opponents all the way westward, but their number is only about [-].
Comparing the two, there is a natural gap.
"That's right!" Aaliyah nodded and said, "We are still very weak now, whether compared to the Bactrians in the west, or the Macedonians in the west, let alone the Qin people in the east. The Sun Alliance is not for the eastward advance, but for the complete elimination of Bucket."
"Why?" Mia asked, somewhat puzzled by Aaliyah's thoughts.
Alia said: "Only by mastering the land of Bhakt, can we control that trade route. The trade route connecting east and west from Xianyang, the capital of Qin, can bring us huge benefits. A large number of cities and land can also Provide us with countless food and grass. Only with food, grass and wealth can we recruit soldiers and have the capital to advance eastward. The reason why I sent troops to the border of Dawan Kingdom is to show our army and majesty to the countries of the Western Regions , but also for testing.”
"Try?"
"That's right, the countries in the Western Regions are not a whole, and many of them just succumb to Qin's military power and lustful power, not real surrender. Those are the ones we can ally with."
"So that's how it is." Mia shook her head, her face a little discouraged, and said with a smile: "Aaliyah, compared to you, I am a fool. Without you, I might have died that night, Or, become a puppet played by Tuoluwo."
"King, please don't say that. You have a power that most of today's rulers don't possess. Your powerful heart is so gentle that it can make all people feel hope and save those who are lost. With this power, you can unite people from all races in the kingdom. We need your power to gain a foothold here, and even to defeat that unforgivable existence in the future."
"Really?" Mia showed a cute smile, "Alia, I'm really happy when you say that.
……
Zhaowu City, the residence of the chief historian of the Western Regions of the Empire.
Zhang Han is dressed in armor and stands in the pavilion in the backyard, from which he can overlook the surrounding scenery of the city.
Behind him, the figure of a general in black flashed, his hands bowed.
Zhang Han turned his head slightly and asked, "What's the matter?"
Four years ago, Ying Ziyi was relegated to Yunzhong.Zhang Han was sent to the fief by Ying Ziyi to command the soldiers and horses in the fief.
Xiao He, Li Zuoche, Zhang Han.Ying Ziyi's three important officials are in charge of the financial, government and military affairs of the fief.
"Our spies in various countries in the Western Regions have sent news one after another. Hearing His Royal Highness's order, the kings of the Western Regions have already left one after another. It's just that some kings still ignore it."
"Hmph!" Zhang Han snorted coldly and asked, "Who are they?"
"King Qiuci, King Wusun, King Cheshi, and King Dawan also invaded the country with the Yue clan, so they have no time to come."
"How's the preparation for the war?" Zhang Han asked with murderous look in his eyes.
"Lord Xiao He has received news that the horse gear, armor, and provisions used by the [-] cavalry are all ready and ready to go at any time."
"Very good!" Zhang Han said slowly: "We must let the kings of the Western Regions understand that if they don't want to stay on the throne, then I, Daqin, have the ability to replace them at any time. What about the side situation?"
The black-armored general looked embarrassed, and replied: "The journey is far away, and our spies haven't sent any specific information yet, and the caravans from the Western Regions in the past only said that Yuezhi has established a country in the West."
"Whether it's the Yue clan or the Xiongnu! The eternal hegemony of the empire must never be touched."
