Chapter 673 Wusun King

Outside Yumen Pass, Wusun Camp.

"Kunmi, we can't go on like this."

In King Wusun's big tent, all Wusun's ministers were very dissatisfied.

The premise of the alliance between the four great princes of the Yuezhi and the King of Wusun was that the Yuezhi gave up three wealthy countries in the Western Regions and a large area of ​​excellent grassland as Wusun's sphere of influence.

Then, the four major Xihou took the wealth of the royal city, willing to transfer half of the wealth to Wusun as a bait, and invited the Wusun army to return eastward together.

Wusun and Yuezhi both started in the Hexi Corridor, and there was an old grudge between the two parties. Being able to return to the original land has great temptation and political significance for Wusun.

What's more, King Wusun is also aware of the wealth of the Yuezhi Royal City.

From dozens of countries in the distant Western Regions to the Great Qin in the East, there are thousands of caravans of all sizes every year, and this is only one-way.

On this commercial road, there are two very rich cities, one is the royal city of the Yue clan, and the other is the Jin city of the Qin people.

But as the war progressed, things became complicated.

Inside the Yuezhi, it has split over the years.A large number of aristocrats settled in the Yueshi Royal City, a land of wealth, and imitated the people of China, cultivating fields and saving food and grass.Even with the help of the Qin people, water canals and various agricultural facilities were built.Coupled with the addition of trade routes, they lived a very comfortable life.

But the other faction, like the Four Great Xihou and their tribes, conquered the Western Regions and maintained Yuezhi's influence in the Western Regions.

Naturally, it is impossible for this group of people to transport food and grass from the Yuezhi Royal City.The Western Region has a vast territory, and such a logistics supply method is not realistic.

Unlike the semi-nomadic Yuezhi, Wusun, like the Xiongnu, lived by water and grass.Such a long-distance military operation will be followed by a large number of tribesmen.

Men are fighting outside, while women, old people and children are behind tending cattle and sheep.

The four major Xihous of the Yuezhi also have the same logistics supply methods.

But in this way, a contradiction arises.The army came to the west, followed by a large number of troops, but there were many excellent pastures.

Both the Yuezhi and Wusun needed pastures and safe havens to resettle the tribesmen, but as the army advanced, resources became limited.Coupled with the old feud between Yuezhi and Wusun, after the joy of winning the Three Kingdoms of the Western Regions faded, the naked reality appeared before the eyes.

"This month, our followers have fought dozens of fights with Yuezhi, and many people have been injured."

"I shouldn't have listened to those Yuezhi people back then."

"Kunmi, we have been away from the royal court for half a year. If the people of Dawan hear the news, they may take the opportunity to occupy our place."

……

Amid all the objections, King Wusun waved his hand to stop the discussion.

Because the guest he had been waiting for had arrived.

The curtain of the tent moved lightly, and a man in a black robe walked in under the leadership of the guards.

After taking off the black robe, the comers should be dressed in different attire, which is very different from all the Wusun people present.

"Great Qin Chehou Hanyang Jun Zhao Shuang met Wusun King!"

The visitor spoke Wusun fluently, which surprised King Wusun a little.In order to cope with this meeting, he specially prepared a translator, but now it seems that it is unnecessary.

"Mr. Hanyang can actually speak Wusun language?"

"Follow the Wusun caravan who came to Jincheng to learn for a while, and naturally understand."

"It seems that Your Majesty has long been prepared."

King Wusun looked at the man in front of him. He had an aura that was different from Wusun and even the royal families and nobles of the Western Regions.There are countless legends about this man in the Western Regions. Following the defeat of the Yuezhi's rebel army, they fled westward one after another and spread among the countries in the Western Regions.

Of course, there wasn't much good to say about it.

King Wusun had also heard the legend that he defeated the Yue clan with tens of thousands of cavalry with [-] infantry.

He didn't dare to underestimate the man in front of him, but he was also unwilling to bow his head.

"I heard that the Qin army is invincible, even in the Western Regions, we have already heard about it. I wonder if I can learn it this time?"

"Soldiers, ominous weapons, saints have no choice but to do it."

King Wusun frowned when he heard Zhao Shuang's words.It's very simple, because he didn't understand at all.

General Wusun on the side scolded even more.

"Stop talking nonsense, we don't understand your Qin people's great principles. I just want to know whether you dare to fight."

Facing the menacing crowd, Zhao Shuang was not annoyed.

"Kunmi should know that Qiu Biju, the great prince of the Yue family, has [-] cavalry in his hands, and he is stationed behind Yumen. Behind him is a large grassland and dozens of fortresses. Wusun's army will have to defeat them if they want to reach the king's city." These [-] cavalry and the thousands of elite soldiers in the dozens of fortresses. There are also nearly [-] defenders in the Yuezhi King City. May I ask, if Wusun finally got his wish, does he still have the strength to fight against the Qin army? "

King Wusun has a deep understanding of his enemies.With the development of the Yuezhi royal city and the supply of armaments from the Qin people, many armored infantry troops appeared in the Yuezhi army.

These infantry are better equipped than the Horde's cavalry, and their mission is also to guard the fortress.

Wusun did not have a strong ability to attack fortifications, but what he had was the ability to persuade the four major Xihou of the Yuezhi to surrender as important members of the Yuezhi.

But things didn't go as smoothly as King Wusun imagined.

"What's more, if the Wusun army has consumed too much force in this battle, will the four major Xihous still pay Kunmi and you accordingly?"

"What do you want to say, Your Majesty?"

"Wusun and Dawan are both powerful countries. Wusun has not lived in the land for a long time, and the long-term war will be disadvantageous. If there is a change in the rear, there will be no return. Kunmi must investigate."

Zhao Shuang's words cast a chill in the hearts of everyone present.Wusun was expelled by the Yue clan and migrated to the Western Regions.

Compared with other small countries in the Western Regions, Wusun, who can dispatch tens of thousands of rangers at every turn, is undoubtedly a first-class military power.Relying on his followers, he became king and hegemony in the Western Regions, but it didn't take long, and he made many enemies.

It will take a year to mobilize the army.If they continue to entangle here, once something happens in the rear, they will lose their way back.

"The Western Regions are vast enough for Wusun to live in. Rather than forming an alliance with the four great Xihou, Wusun should be an alliance with our Great Qin. In this way, Wusun can gain a firm foothold in the Western Regions, and our Great Qin has gained enough in the Western Regions." support."

Zhao Shuang's words moved King Wusun a little.

King Wusun knew better that if he wanted to form an alliance with Zhao Shuang, he would be making an enemy of these four great princes.

Betrayal has huge benefits.

Unknowingly, the corners of King Wusun's mouth curled up slightly.

At night, in the rebel camp of the Yuezhi, monstrous flames ignited.

The leader of the Yin-Yang family came here with his descendants all the way and witnessed this scene, but he didn't care about this battle that would affect the pattern of the Western Regions.

"The illusion of the Western Regions is about to open."

As the years passed, Gao Yue's figure became taller and taller.At this moment, her pair of beautiful eyes looked at the battlefield in the distance, and she didn't care about it.

"Your Excellency Donghuang, do you really want to do this?"

"If I can't get the dragon soul and heal my injuries, then to me, everything is meaningless."

There was a bit of loneliness in the words of the leader of the Yin Yang family, but he was also extremely determined.

Under Gao Yue's gaze, he went away alone.
