Chapter 2216
Wuyang stretched out his voice and said a little embarrassedly: "This road is also the lifeblood of Dunhuang. Huba used to be in charge, but now it is estimated that Xutuo will be managed."
"Along this road, many armed forces are believers of Sudu."
"If you want to open up this path, it is no different from the ones who destroy Xutu."
When Zhou Jian heard this, although he was serious, he absolutely had no intention of retreating. Instead, he asked: "How much do you know about the deployment of the Buddhist sect on the Silk Road?"
Wuyang didn't say much, turned around and found a map in the room, then dipped his fingers in tea, and drew a long line on it to indicate the approximate location of the Silk Road.
Then she pointed to three places: "These three places are all armed forces from the Western Regions stationed. They are different from the Heishan tribe and are considered to belong to Dunhuang directly."
"The number of people must be about 70,000 to 80,000. This is not considered other small tribes. However, they certainly do not have the standard military armor like the Great Zhou Dynasty. They are not considered regular troops, but they can only be called armed forces. However, the people of the Western Regions are naturally warlike and are not easy to chew on."
Zhou Jian narrowed his eyes and looked at the three nodes of the Silk Road on the map. It was like three tigers crossing the route. It would be absolutely impossible to open up the fortress to break the deadlock without clearing them.
"They are not the most difficult ones. The difficulty is that when I take action, Xu Tuo will come to hear the sound. Looking at the map, you are easily attacked by front and back. This is the trouble." He frowned. He had known more about Xu Tuo in the past five days.
Although this person is a speaker, he has a keen sense of smell, is conceited but not careless, and is very difficult to deal with.
Wuyang couldn't help but sigh: "Apart from the means of war, it's too difficult to overthrow Dunhuang."
This is true, but Zhou Jian also knows that the benefits after success are proportional to risks and benefits throughout history.
Just as he was pondering how to get rid of Xutuo's eyes, open up the Silk Road in blitzkrieg, and carry out defense and shelter, Guanshan rushed in from Tuobei Mountain with a serious expression.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Upon hearing the sound, Zhou Jian turned his head and was slightly surprised that Guanshan had always been very steady.
Bang!
Guan Shan rushed in, knelt down and clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, Xu Tuo has someone to send a letter!"
"Their people say they want to make a deal with you!"
Upon hearing this, Wuyang and Master Ku were all surprised. Xu Tuo took the initiative to trade? What kind of character is Xu Tuo? A god-like character. Hu Bai, who used to call the wind and rain, could only carry his shoes. It was now, and he was still thinking about taking the initiative to trade.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Zhou Jian's mouth, but he was not surprised: "He finally came. I think he doesn't want his dozens of men?"
As he said that, he took the letter and opened it and his eyes instantly became cold.
really!
Xu Tuo came to ask for people, and the condition given was Loulan. At the end of the letter, there was a very threatening saying, if there was no transaction, Loulan would be stripped naked and hung on the tree, allowing the birds to eat!
"Hmph!" After reading it, Zhou Jian's face was furious and he directly tore the letter apart. This threat angered him.
Loulan is his true confidant. The torture he faced in these days is probably unimaginable. When Zhou Jian thinks of this, he feels a little guilty.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
"What did Xutuo write?" asked Master Ku, feeling his anger.
"Xutuo wants to exchange Loulan's life for his subordinates' lives. If you exchange for thirteen, the time will be in the middle of the two armies tomorrow at sunset! I dare to threaten me like this and fall into my hands. I have to blow this Xutuo into a human stick!" Zhou Jian cursed domineeringly, and even had a sense of evil spirit.
The beam is getting bigger and bigger!
"Your Majesty, Xu Tuo is very tricky and be careful of fraud!" Wuyang reminded him.
