Chapter 806: Entry of the Protectorate of the Western Regions
The Western Regions Protectorate, Luntai City, Huo'an came back with a few generals.
"It's another expedition to Dayuan. Fortunately, I have attacked Dayuan twice in a row and are familiar with it."
Huo'an was assigned a copy of Li Guangli's expedition to Dayuan during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han.
For Huo An, who is familiar with the terrain of the Western Regions and has Huo Qubing as a general, it is not difficult, so it is easy to complete.
"Master, the eldest lady is back."
When Huoan returned to Luntai City, Wang Xuance reminded Huoan.
"My sister, I don't know how she is doing in Xiacheng?"
Huoan met Huo Qing who had returned from Xiacheng.
"elder brother!"
"Qingqing, did Chutian treat you badly? If he dares to neglect you, then I will not participate in this northern war. Maybe he will still stand on Lao Qin's side."
Huo An also attaches great importance to this sister. After all, she is trapped in "The Lord". Huo An only one relative, and gave up two S-level characteristics to Huo Qing.
"Brother, I came back just to talk to you about the war in the north. Chu Tian wanted to borrow troops from you and attack Xiliang."
"Married sister is like water splashed out. I didn't expect that when I opened my mouth, I didn't care about my safety... There was no problem in sending troops to Xiliang. However, before intervening in the Northern War, I needed to complete the defense of Dayuan. The Han Empire needed a nail in Central Asia, which was for future considerations and had to be guarded. Intervening in the Northern War means making choices and giving up some of the interests in Central Asia. A scout on my side learned that Torei of the Ili Khanate and Temujin's most capable son had already intentionally sent Subutai, Kublai Khan and other generals to attack the Kushan Empire."
Huoan knew that the troops from the Western Regions Protectorate's Office would not be able to stop Ogedei's power from expanding barbaricly in Central Asia.
The advantage of the troops from the Western Regions Protectorate's Office entering the pass is to unify the Han Empire as soon as possible. The specific gains and losses depend on how to weigh them.
The Anshi Rebellion broke out in the middle Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty dispatched troops from the Anxi Protectorate's Office to the Pass to serve the king. In addition, the rise of Tubo led to the Tang Dynasty almost losing control of Central Asia and Tianshan.
"Whether to enter the pass or not, you and Chu Tian will decide this. I'm just here to supervise it."
"Hmph, it's true that it's a girl going outward. I'm already planning to enter the pass, not only Xiliang, but also the Southern Barbarians need my troops. This guy Liu Bei actually wants to pacify the Southern Barbarians. The Southern Barbarians are your sister-in-law's territory, so how can Liu Bei occupy it?"
Luntai City, the Western Regions Protectorate and Xu Fengnian's generals came back from all over the country.
The civil war in the Han Empire had swept the Western Regions Protectorate, and even the Western Regions were not peaceful.
"The lord has decided to enter the pass, and we cannot stay out of the matter. The civil war in the Han Empire may have to be decided. I just don't know where we will be assigned to? Liangzhou, Liaodong, Southern Barbarians or staying in the Dayuan Kingdom and the Western Regions?"
Huo Qubing, Chen Tang, Gao Xianzhi, Wang Zhongsi, Ban Chao and others gathered.
Huo An unknowingly formed an amazing team.
If Huoan is in the densely populated Central Plains, he can also become a great prince in the north, but Huoan has always been unable to get along with Central Asia and wants to conquer Central Asia and expand territory for the Han Empire.
The reputation of the loser who competes in the Central Plains is better than expanding his territory and being famous in history.
"I want to fight back to Xiliang, and the three people who betray me must make a break with them."
Xu Fengnian is still worried about his betrayal.
"Enter the Pass?"
Huo Qubing couldn't help looking to the east.
These generals have been fighting in the Western Regions and Central Asia for a long time.
This time, Huoan planned to enter the country.
"Everyone is waiting for the order."
Huo An brought Huo Qing over.
The generals from the Western Regions Protectorate were all solemn and finally they were about to enter the pass.
"Xu Fengnian is responsible for the guide to Liangzhou, and I will arrange for you Huo Qubing. Ban Chao, Gao Xianzhi guard the Dayuan Kingdom, Wang Xuance, and Chen Tang guard the Western Regions Protectorate."
"It's really boring to guard Dayuan."
Gao Xianzhi couldn't help but feel depressed when he heard that Huo An had deployed himself in Dayuan.
Entering the pass to fight was a great military achievement.
"The threat of Central Asia is huge, and it is already difficult to defend Dayuan Kingdom. This is also a contribution. In the future, the teleportation array of Dayuan Kingdom will be needed as a springboard."
Huoan paid a considerable price to compete for the Dayuan Kingdom. If the Dayuan Kingdom is lost, he will cross the Palaciori again and attack the Dayuan Kingdom next time.
Including the number of times in the dungeon, Huoan has made three consecutive expeditions to Dayuan, but he has no energy to carry out the fourth expedition.
For him, the Pamir Plateau is now commonplace. Even if he was asked to lead his army across the Alps in the future, Joan probably thought it was very relaxed.
Wang Xuance asked, "Lord stayed in the Protectorate's Mansion, or went to the pass?"
"Nanban, defeat Liu Bei first. Liu Bei dares to attack Nanban, and this time he will suffer."
The Western Regions Protectorate once again recruited troops and obtained millions of cattle, horses and sheep from Dayuan. Among them, there were tens of thousands of best sweat-blooded BMWs, and the remaining war horses were even larger.
"The sweat-blooded BMW is preferred to recruit the Imperial Cavalry, secondly, to recruit the Western Regions Protectors, Anxi Protectors, and again, to the minions."
Huoan distributed excellent war horses according to the elite level of each legion.
"Xu Fengnian formed four corpses, Ma Teng and Han Sui formed one army, Li Hu, Dugu Xin formed one army, Yang Shihou formed one army, Huo Qubing and Zhao Ponu formed one army, each army of 40,000 cavalry, a total of 160,000 cavalry, attacking Liangzhou."
"I led 80,000 infantry and cavalry to enter the Southern Barbarians and support Mu Ke."
The Western Regions Protectorate sent a total of 240,000 troops!
When the King of Wusun heard that Huoan was going to enter the pass to fight, he recommended himself: "The cavalry of the Wusun Kingdom is willing to serve as the vanguard and pacify the world for the king!"
"The Wusun Kingdom guards the Yili River Valley well, which is of great help to me. Ogedei will not be indifferent to my entry into the pass. He may attack the Yili River Valley. Keeping the Yili River Valley is of the best help to me."
"Affect the order."
King Wusun was undoubtedly a reliable subordinate and had proved his loyalty twice through counter-espionage schemes.
Teams of cavalry entered the teleportation array and headed to Dunhuang.
Dunhuang County and Yumen Pass are still under Xu Fengnian's control.
"Why are there any troops and horses in Luntai City mobilized? Will the Western Regions Protectorate's expedition to Dayuan Kingdom be over, and there will be a big fight?"
The people of Luntai City noticed the unusualness of the Western Regions Protectorate.
A large number of soldiers, horses, food and grass were transported to the teleportation array. The originally expensive teleportation array cost was almost completely ignored by the Western Regions Protectorate. Then there is only one possibility that the Western Regions Protectorate will break out again.
But who is not necessarily the target?
Lao Qin and the scouts deployed by Ogedei in Luntai City immediately brought the movements of the Western Regions Protectorate back to their respective forces.
"The Western Regions Protectorate also wants to participate in the war. This time it is truly a great war within the Han Empire, and all the princes are involved."
Lao Qin gained a characteristic and was originally a little confident, but the sudden dispatch of troops from the Western Regions Protectorate made Lao Qin frown.
Last time Chu Tian arranged for Zhang Dao to invade Liangzhou, delaying a lot of Qin army forces.
After Zhang Dao was repelled, Chu Tian found Xu Fengnian, who was currently in the Western Regions Protectorate, to come out again, causing trouble for Lao Qin.
Xu Fengnian's threat is no less than Zhang Dao, and even greater than Zhang Dao's threat.
Zhang Dao's peasant army was afraid of the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, but Xu Fengnian was not afraid of the Western Liang Iron Cavalry. It would be better to say that the Western Liang Iron Cavalry that the Qin army now owns is just Xu Fengnian's remaining cavalry.
"His Highness of the King of Qin, the governor of Yizhou, Duke of Shu, and the left general Liu Xuande were waiting outside the hall to receive him."
Xun Yu walked into the hall and reported to Lao Qin who was having a headache.
"Liu Xuande has finally come. I have been waiting for him for a long time."
Soon, the energetic Liu Bei came to the hall.
After ten years of going through Liu Bei, he finally had a stable foothold, his power was in an upward period and the situation was very good.
"This time I came to Xianyang City, except to pay a visit to the emperor, Xuande had something to ask for."
Lao Qin looked at Liu Bei who had been familiar with him. This person's willpower was extremely extraordinary.
Rather than saying that Liu Bei's success is benevolence and righteousness, it is more of a strong willpower: "It's okay to say Xuande but it's okay."
"If you want Yizhou to join the Xianyang Alliance, please be sure to agree to Xuande, return the power to the Han emperor, and restore the Han Dynasty, and not imitate Dong Zhuo and use the emperor to order the princes."
"It is not easy to restore the power of the Han emperor. The Han emperor is not able to deal with the troubled times. After defeating the King of Xia and unifying the Han Empire, I will return the power to the Han emperor."
"A word is certain?"
"One word is certain!"
"What do I need to do?"
"The Zhang Dao who held Hanzhong and Mu Ke from the Southern Barbarians. Last time they tried to test each other, they couldn't wait to jump out and become enemies with me, and threatened me too much. Both of them were the prefects of Yizhou. You are now the new governor of Yizhou, and you have no choice but to quell the rebellion of the two prefects. This is the emperor's edict to quell Yizhou, and the imperial edict should not be disobeyed."
Lao Qin threw the imperial edict to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei easily took it, and the imperial edict still had a great effect on Liu Bei.
In any case, Liu Bei had to consider the consequences of rejecting the imperial edict of the Han emperor.
There are pros and cons to compete for the Central Plains in the name of supporting the Han Dynasty.
"Hanzhong, the Southern Barbarians have a lot of population. If they can recover these two places, it is exactly the result I want, and I promise you."
“Can assistance be needed?”
"No, I can pacify Hanzhong and the Southern Barbarians by my own efforts."
"It's worthy of being Liu Xuande, I want to hear your plan."
Liu Bei discussed with Lao Qin again and then left.
Lao Qin looked at Liu Bei's leaving figure and knew that Liu Bei's rise might affect the civil war in the Han Empire.
Li Si, the chief of the Qin Palace, saw that Lao Qin allowed Liu Bei to leave, so he suggested to Lao Qin: "The lord can detain Liu Bei in Xianyang City and try to annex his subordinates. Liu Bei is a hero and let him leave safely. This move is tantamount to letting him go back to the mountain."
