Chapter 429

It has to be said that the Parthian Empire has indeed done a lot of research.As early as when the Han Dynasty destroyed the Guishuang Empire, the Anxi Empire had already discovered this new neighbor.According to the preliminary investigation, it is known that this is from the Han Empire in the east.

In recent years, as Cao Cao opened up the Western Regions, many merchants from the Anxi Empire came to Dahan along the old Silk Road and made a fortune. Many of them took the opportunity to learn the blunt Dahan Mandarin.

For the big Han who is rich in silk, the Anxi Empire still wants to deal with it, especially now that the sunset of the empire is slowly rising, under the corrupt politics, there is the extravagance of the nobles, and they have an endless desire for wealth and power .

In 197 AD, with the war between the Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire, some people worried that the big man would send troops over to take advantage of the fire after he knew about it, although there was no such idiom in their dictionaries.

"We must ensure the safety of the rear!" Parthian Empire, in fact, the official name should be the emperor of the Parthian Empire, Vologassis V said to his courtiers.

This emperor was actually a rebel. He betrayed his father, Vologassis IV, and appeared in 191 AD, and then succeeded to the throne the following year.His succession gave the Parthia Empire a short-term vitality. Young generals, excellent prime ministers, and those who rebelled against their superiors would always have a few capable ministers and fierce generals around them.

"Great emperor!" The newly promoted minister said, "From the information we have collected, the big man was originally in the far east, where the water and grass were luxuriant. This time they went here on an expedition, and the road was dry. It is destined that for them, the original land of the Guishuang Empire is just an enclave. They can't garrison many soldiers, and it is difficult to survive here. If they leave it alone, they will naturally retreat."

In fact, the big man did not launch an attack afterwards, and the minister's "foresight" was praised by Vologassis V.At least that's good news since the Roman Empire invaded.

During this period, the Parthian Empire sent people to the Han Dynasty for trade, and the caravans were composed of nobles from the Parthian Empire.They came to Dahan around 199 years, came to Chang'an, passed through Luoyang, even entered the Central Plains, visited Xiangyang under construction, saw the prosperity of China, and learned that this place has been replaced by a country called "Great Chu", However, this new country is full of vigor and vitality.

Construction is everywhere, and the prosperity is even more prosperous than their capital.The key is that silk and rhubarb are two very popular commodities in the Parthian Empire and even Rome!
Not only that, but recently there have been more tea, ceramics and glass products. These commodities have turned the eyes of the caravan into the shape of gold coins. But also beautiful.

Interestingly, when they left, about [-]% of their followers had converted to the Ancestral God Religion.Then, holding a copy of "Pinyin" and a "Dictionary", as well as several promotional copies of "Ancestor God's Teachings", they returned to the Parthian Empire with the caravan.

"The Great Chu Empire took over the territory of the original Great Han Empire? What kind of country is this?" Vologassis V discovered that the border troops seemed to have changed a group of people in the early 200s.

A group of more elite, people feel dreadful existence.According to the best general in the empire, this army feels more dangerous to him than the Roman Empire!
"Your Majesty!" Aldaban, a nobleman who is a relative of Vologassis V, stood up, "Our caravan came back from Dachu and brought back a lot of goods and news about their country. It is a young empire. The emperor's name is Shihui. It is said that he was originally a general of the Han Empire. He later rebelled and expelled the Han imperial court to the area of ​​the Guishuang Empire. Now it has entered the area of ​​​​the Guishuang Empire.

This country has not been established for a few years, but it is developing rapidly. I heard that their king is a legend.Legend has it that he can turn Douzi into elite soldiers with a wave of his hand.When a number is reported, the population corresponding to this number will appear in all directions.Point out a place, and there will be excellent equipment and excellent mounts here.

Many people of Dachu even believed that this was the incarnation of a god in the world.The point is, their desire for land is very strong. In the past two years, almost no people lived in the Western Regions. In the past two years, 300 million people have been immigrated, and they have been constantly renovating that area. In the past year, they have even sent people to Guizhou. On the land of the Frost Empire, and then build here.But this is not their focus, our empire is probably within their attack range! "

"Speaking of which, isn't the big man also within their attack range?" Vologassis V asked suspiciously.

"But here is the strange thing. They were supposed to completely wipe out the big man, but they chose to drive them away. Now they are just driving them to that area, but they don't continue to attack. Maybe as a subject, Shi Hui is too embarrassed to attack His original king?" Aldaban said slowly.

"This is too bad. We can't face the enemy, Rome has already given us a headache!" Vologassis V said painfully, and he really took over his father's mess, only to find that the mess is worse than he imagined!
Politically, the aristocrats are becoming less and less afraid to fight, and they are becoming more and more selfish.The wars are all dependent on slaves and mercenaries. Even if heirs are sent out, they will be those bastards or illegitimate children. Such nobles have no way to defend the royal family.

In terms of military affairs, the Parthian Empire did not have a standing army, and the Royal Guards could still count on it. It was precisely because of their desperate efforts that the Roman Empire did not succeed in taking down the Parthian Empire.But apart from this, the nobles who should have sent troops to support and fight immediately after the king shouted, but there is no way to expect it.

"Perhaps we can try to form an alliance with them. If it doesn't work, we should also form an alliance with the big man. When necessary, unite with the big man and drive the big Chu back to their original territory!" Aldaban clenched his fists and said.

"Good idea, send someone over to talk to them, and it's the same with the big man!" Vologassis V nodded.

So this diplomatic envoy came to Shazhou with the friendship of the Parthian Empire and of course some gifts, and then a businessman who had learned some Chinese languages ​​through dictionaries and pinyin acted as an interpreter.

"Want to form an alliance with us?" Ju Shou, as the governor of Shazhou, can have a certain decision-making power in this regard according to the latest regulations.However, the follow-up needs to be reported to the court. If the governor's decision does not meet the interests of the empire, then Jushou will also face the result of being punished.

Generally speaking, it is the safest way to report obediently, but this is too slow, and there is no way to reply within two or three months.As the governor, Jushou decided to exercise his power.

"If you want to form an alliance with us, you can!" Jushou replied to the interpreter, "What kind of sincerity can the Parthian Empire show?"

"My lord, the Inspector of Great Chu asked us, how much benefit should we offer in order to form an alliance?" the interpreter cautiously replied to the envoy of the Parthian Empire.

"Ask him, is he asking this question on behalf of himself, or on behalf of Da Chu!" The envoy asked with great interest.

 Tomorrow there may be only one update, maybe two updates, who knows...
