Chapter 1,774 Coveting

After Brahe left, Helilach and Lebrali began to write a secret letter to be sent to Vesutiva I.

This letter introduced in detail the results of the battle between the Kushans and the Han Dynasty in the Wenjia area. At the end of the letter, there were three pure descriptions of battlefield changes without any introductory language.

It is based on different guesses and analyzes from three people.

The speculations and analyzes of these three people all have their own one-sidedness, and they all have similarities and conflicts, but these are the opinions of these three people.

As for what Vesudeva I could learn from this authentic letter and the three accompanying descriptions and insights of the battlefield, that was beyond the control of Helilach and the others.

In fact, what Helilach and others did not know was that when they wrote the letter, Vesudeva I had already received the secret letter from Zhu Kasyapa and Ghaznava.

Although the fact that the Malacca naval battle was fought against the Han army was covered up by Qiuliche among the army, Zhu Kasyapa and Qiuliche, as nobles who understood the concept of the Han Dynasty, finally decided to write a secret letter to let people

Take the boat back.

It is true that the speed of boats in the sea is much higher than that of the army, but if you compare the speed of individuals alone, then the navy is far inferior to the cavalry running in a straight line.

Therefore, this letter floated on the sea for more than a month before reaching the coast of Kushan. Then it was transferred to the land and rushed to the hands of Vesuthiva I.

Let me first say that Vesudeva I's life has been really good recently. Since he became violent, he found that many things are no longer a problem for him.

Khwarazm (Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan) rebelled before, right? Khorasan (Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan) rebelled before, right? The entire northern part of Kushan became semi-independent, right? It originated from Central Asia.

Kushan, it’s enough to lose Congling, but now Central Asia is about to be lost.

However, as long as there were no problems in Peshawar, the capital of Peshawar, Vesudeva I, who was just dawdling and getting by, was too lazy to care about the life and death of other places. Besides, for him, these were all issues left over from history, and Brahmins always

It's a hindrance, so Vesudeva I didn't bother to take care of it.

After losing one of his spiritual relics, Vesudeva I suddenly found that his throne seemed a bit unstable, and then there seemed to be unruly people, oh no, it seemed that there were Brahmins and Kshatriyas trying to harm him. Vesudeva I was shocked.

Although as the emperor he would not be killed, Vesudeva I felt a sense of despair just thinking about living a life where his words and deeds would affect millions of people again.

Forced by this kind of thinking, Vesudeva I cheered up. Anyway, the situation was so bad that even if I messed up, I would still step down. I was afraid of ghosts, so Vesudeva I began to act manically.

First, he put down the chaos in the country, then he fought against Khwarazm, and then he fought against Khorasan. In the end, he found that all reactionaries seemed to be paper tigers. Those guys who had been nagging him to step down were harvested by him like rice.

After a while, no one said anything nonsense anymore.

Inexplicably, Vesudeva I found that his throne was stable, and many low-caste inner Qi from Kushan jumped out and came to join him. Counting more than twenty, Vesudeva I can guarantee that,

Before this, he had never thought that there were so many unregistered internal Qi leaving the body among the people.

The Brahmins had agreed at the beginning that anyone below the level of Kshatriya would be given the status of a Kshatriya as soon as they entered the inner Qi body. Unexpectedly, there were so many inner Qi body people who did not accept the canonization of Brahmins at all.

What I didn't even expect was that after he went berserk and went berserk, he not only executed the rebels one by one, but also gained such a huge number of supporters.

Although Vesudeva I was not a qualified emperor, he was an emperor after all, so he still had some political acumen. He knew very well what the inner Qi of those who were unwilling to seek refuge with Brahmins and came to seek refuge with him thought about, but this

It's not a bad thing.

At that time, Vesudeva I was almost ready to step down and drag others to death, so he was not afraid of the Brahmans doing it to him. It didn't matter anyway. If he fell, whether he did these things now or not would have consequences.

With this idea in mind, after Vesudeva I wiped out all the Kushan rebellions and snatched back all the semi-independent Khwarezm and Khorasan, Vesudeva I finally dealt with the theocratic power that she had always been very unhappy with.

provocative.

Although Brahmins are very powerful, they are different from any previous era, even different from the era when Yan Gaozhen came to South Asia. In this era, Vesudeva I has greater power in the world than Brahmins!

No matter what era it was in the past, the Brahmans who held the divine power themselves also had power higher than the power of the king in the human world. They had soldiers, generals, and their own countries.

However, this kind of power was nothing to Vesudeva I who was ready to pull people into the water before stepping down. He killed the generals placed by the Brahmins in the royal guards and directly parachuted an inner Qi out of the body. Unsatisfied

Get rid of them all.

In an almost purge-like manner, more than 20 people who believed that Vesudeva I had suppressed the rebellion and determined Central Asia to be a man of great courage and ability spontaneously came to seek refuge with Vesudeva I.

Shuang holds most of the military power in his hands.

As for the remaining military power, it was entirely to give face to the Brahmins. Otherwise, Vesudeva I really didn't mind being stained with the so-called divine blood.

Naturally, now Vesudeva I really feels what it means that I am the country. He is deeply addicted to this feeling. This feeling of commanding the world makes him truly feel that he is alive, instead of like before.

Controlled like a puppet by divine power.

It is precisely because of this that Vesudeva I, who was firmly on the throne, actively consolidated the Kushan territory and sent large armies to conquer and overwhelm it, in order to make his orders go further.

At present, Vesudeva I has once again restored the Kushan territory to its peak period. Except for the Congling area because the Han army is still squatting there, no one dares to take action. Vesudeva I has occupied all the other places that he can occupy.

However, Vesudeva I had already dispatched an envoy to the Han Dynasty in advance to observe, understand, and see if there was any chance. To be honest, after Vesudeva I regained the land that Kushan had lost, he

I really want to have a fight with the Han army.

Fortunately, this guy was just a tyrant, not a coward, and since the Han Dynasty was there, he just had the idea of ​​coveting it, wondering if there was an opportunity to prove it to himself.

Coupled with the constant news of success coming from the South Asian subcontinent, Vesutiva I's heart to challenge the Han Dynasty became more and more restless. However, without accurate news from the Han Dynasty, he could only suppress his restless heart.

live.

However, just when Vesudeva I suppressed his inner restlessness, the news of Zhu Kashyapa and Chuli Chue was delivered. This news was like a shot in the arm for Vesudeva I, which made the already already

The suppressed mood became restless again.

"Hahahaha, our army encountered the Han army at sea and defeated it. Only two ships escaped. Good, good, well done. I will give credit to Zhu Kashyapa and Ghazni!"

King Vesudeva I burst into laughter after reading the contents of the letter.

He really does whatever he wants, as if everything has gone smoothly since he became a tyrant, as if God is afraid of tyrants.

"Hmph, this guy Qiulique is actually afraid of getting into trouble. He has been beaten for nothing, so what else are you afraid of? Humph, diplomatic issues, what a joke. We in Kushan never talk diplomacy with weak people. The Han Empire can do that.

Then just row a boat and fight here, what are you afraid of?" Vesudeva I sneered repeatedly when he saw Chuli's uneasy narration behind him.

For Vesutiva I, although he was not sure how strong the Han Empire was, he knew very well that in this situation, which was almost an accident, with the strength they showed, they would most likely go back to the negotiation table.

[The navy of the Han Empire looks very ordinary. It was defeated by Zhu Kasyapa. Moreover, Zhu Kasyapa also said that if he didn't want to capture him alive, he would probably be able to easily wipe out the opponent, and the opponent has the ultimate ability to separate the internal energy from the body.

There are two fierce generals, and both have legion talents. This is the top legion configuration.】

After reading it, Vesutiva I restrained his complacency and turned to think carefully. He soon understood that the Han Dynasty did not say anything about the army, but the navy was definitely not their opponent to the Kushans. Based on this alone, the Kushans had no influence on the Han Dynasty.

There is nothing to fear in the room.

[It seems that my previous response to the Han Dynasty was a bit too conservative, so should I try to take back Congling, or even the area to the west close to the Caspian Sea? 】

Vesudeva I thought with some hesitation that for a country of their level, as long as there was one aspect in the military that others could not catch up with, then their war would be optional for them.

[Let’s wait, I have a lot of time. In my impression, the Han Empire has always been famous for its cavalry and infantry.] Vesudeva I forcibly calmed down the restlessness in his heart, but it was obvious that he no longer concealed his feelings about

The Han Dynasty coveted him.

As a tyrant, and a tyrant who can secure his position, the ability required must be higher than that of most wise kings, and compared with the so-called wise kings, tyrants can not care about other people's opinions, so the execution ability of tyrants

It's very scary.

After wiping out the domestic rebellions one by one and solving the historical problems such as Khwarezm and Khorasan, Vesutiva I rose to be on par with the founding monarch of Kushan. No, it is no longer on par.

What Sudeva I wanted was transcendence.

The continuous news of victory from the Baiyana Dynasty did not make Vesudeva I obviously excited, because for an empire, there was no possibility that any non-empire could not solve for them.

For the empire, the small countries next to it are just a matter of willingness and whether it is cost-effective. There is nothing that the kingdom will push back on.

Therefore, this almost destined victory could only be regarded as a snack before the meal for Vesudeva I.

Even for Vesudeva I, if Brahe was defeated by the Hundred Vehicles Dynasty, or the alliance of ten countries, or even more countries, Vesudeva I would give Brahe a second army to avenge his humiliation.

Perhaps the power of the empire will be comparable to that of the local kingdoms in those distant places, but the point that the empire is far superior to the kingdom is that it can come back again after defeat.

So what if I lose, so what if I lose, there are only a handful of victors in ancient times, the empire’s confidence has never been that it will never fail, but that even if it fails, I can do it all over again, and if it doesn’t work once, it can be done twice, but if it doesn’t work twice, it can happen again.

You can do this three times until you are completely killed.

This is the strength of the empire. For Vesutiva I, there is no need to worry about the ants next to him. As far as he knows, there are only three countries that can make Vesudeva I an opponent, the distant Rome, and the declining Anxi.

And the unfathomable Han Empire.

For Kushan, the most suitable one is naturally the rest that seems to be about to set in the west. However, for Vesudeva I, there is only one most suitable one, and that is the Han Empire.

His Majesty Yan Gaozhen wanted to go beyond founding the country, open up territory and leave a foundation for Kushan. For Vesutiva I, there was only one choice, which was to take back the Congling that His Majesty Yan Gaozhen had given up, and annex the east of the Caspian Sea to Kushan again.

territory, and then faced the Han Empire directly in the Western Regions, and once again begged the other party to marry the princess to Kushan.

Of course, it is possible not to take this path, it is also possible to overthrow the Han Empire directly to the ground, but the second option, even Vesudev I knew that it was courting death.

Although I really want to do this, I need to consider the reality. Vesudeva I really wants to compete with the Han Dynasty, but this kind of competition needs to be limited to a tolerable range, and the Han Dynasty cannot really be angered.

Already.

At that time, Dawan was so profligate, and the Han Dynasty thought that it was not worthwhile to go on an expedition for the sake of the opponent's strength. Even the opponent imposed heavy taxes on the Silk Road, and the Han Dynasty turned a blind eye. In the end, the blind Dawan conquered the Han Dynasty.

Angry.

In the end, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't even care that Dawan was thousands of miles away. He sent troops directly to defeat the country, killed the king, and then replaced it with a new king. Although this country was still called Dawan in the future, in fact, except for the people, there was no one.

Change people and change everything.

Think about it again, the distance between the capital of Dawan and Peshawar in Kushan now is thousands of miles, and there is no shortage of thousands of miles. It's really annoying. When something like this happens, even if it's because of the geographical advantage, it's them.

If Kushan can win, even Vesudev will not be able to swallow this sigh of relief.

Therefore, Vesudeva I's idea was that if he took action against the Han Dynasty, he would definitely take action. The south of Congling and the east of the Caspian Sea would definitely be taken back, but he could not fight against the Han Dynasty, so Vesudeva I was more interested in taking action.

Want to test the waters.
