Chapter 439
After the court meeting ended, Meng Chen did not go back to the harem to rest, but sent someone to invite Liu Bowen, Jia Xu, Wei Zheng, Tian Feng, Jushou, Xun Yu, Zhou Yu, Li Cunxiao, Xue Rengui, Chang Yuchun and others to the Imperial Study Room.

"See Your Majesty!" When everyone arrived, Meng Chen had already been studying the map of the Western Regions for a while.

Meng Chen waved his hand, and said angrily: "They are all from our own, and they are not in the court, so there is no need for so many etiquettes. I have said it so many times and still can't remember."

Seeing this, everyone laughed, and Meng Chen didn't delve into it, but signaled Meng Shan to hang up the map of the Western Regions.

"I called you today for no other reason. Boren just came back from the Western Regions and brought back a lot of information."

Meng Chen turned around and took his place, then nodded to Chang Yuchun.

Seeing this, Chang Yuchun stood up, bowed to Meng Chen, and then walked to the map that Meng Shan had just hung up.

"This trip to the Western Regions, I have gained a lot, especially Guishuang and the countries west of Guishuang, I have obtained a lot of information." Chang Yuchun's opening remarks are quite normal, and it also aroused everyone's interest.

"Your Majesty, there is no rush for the Western Expedition." It was Wei Zheng who spoke.

"Xuan Cheng's words are very true, but there is no rush for the Western Expedition, but I think it will be safe to prepare in advance." Meng Chen first agreed with Wei Zheng's statement, and then expressed his own thoughts.

Seeing that Meng Chen had said this, Wei Zheng couldn't say anything more, as long as Meng Chen didn't send troops immediately, it would be the safest way to make some preparations in advance.

"If you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. If you don't know anything about the countries in the Western Regions, you will suffer a lot if you send troops in the future." Liu Bowen interjected at this time.

Everyone who heard the words nodded their heads, not to mention that the Western Expedition is of great importance, and if it fails, it will definitely affect the entire Great Xia Empire's control of the Western Regions.

Seeing that everyone turned their attention again, Chang Yuchun continued to tell the story of his trip to the Western Regions.

"In the first battle of Dawan Kingdom, His Majesty wiped out 20 troops of Guishuang, causing the Guishuang's troops to suffer a great loss, and then the Roman mercenaries and the coalition forces of the Western Regions fought several times, and Guishuang fell apart."

"Because the coalition forces of the Western Regions were not stationed, and the Roman mercenaries only controlled the surrounding areas of the capital, the Huacizimo Department in the Guishuang Kingdom took the opportunity to grow, and had already controlled the entire northern part of Guishuang, with a total force of nearly 35."

"The southern region has already been controlled by the Da Yue Clan. According to the information we have received so far, there are quite loud voices opposing Da Xia within the Da Yue Clan."

After saying this sentence, all the people present immediately discussed. Although they had doubts about the combat effectiveness of the 35 troops, Meng Chen found that the generals did not show any signs of underestimating the enemy.

"Okay, let Boren continue." Meng Chen interrupted everyone's discussion.

"To the west of Guishuang Kingdom is the Parthian Empire, the capital of Taixifeng, and most of the goods from the Western Regions trade route will flow into this country. Its military strength is not clear for the time being, but according to current understanding, the Parthian Empire and Rome are sworn enemy."

After saying this, Chang Yuchun took a sip of the tea from Meng Shan!
"In this way, as long as you enter the Parthian Empire, you can formally contact Rome." Liu Bowen said casually, but this sentence made everyone puzzled.

Isn't the Western Expedition that Mengchen has been going to destroy the Roman Empire?
"I, I heard from Emiya that the Parthian Empire once defeated the Roman army, but its combat power was not as strong as that of the Great Xia." Meng Chen said with a smile.

"Your Majesty often said that there are no permanent enemies and no permanent friends, so Parthia cannot be pushed into a hurry, otherwise its alliance with Rome will not be good for Great Xia." Li Cunxiao's words awakened everyone.

"So that's the case, Your Majesty is going to attack Guo in a false way?" Xue Rengui opened his mouth, this is a strategy that popped up in his mind.

Meng Chen smiled without saying a word, and then looked at Zhou Yu. During this period of time, Zhou Yu was basically hurt to speak, even in the early court.

"What's Gongjin's opinion?" Meng Chen asked.

After Meng Chen's voice fell, it was impossible for Zhou Yu to hide his clumsiness!
"Your Majesty! Ladies and gentlemen, only the praying mantis catching the cicada and the oriole are in the interests of Great Xia." As soon as these words came out, Meng Chen burst out laughing.

Zhou Yu was right, provoking conflicts between Rome and the Parthian Empire would be the best result.

"Gongjin's words are not bad, but the pressure is all on Mr. Wenhe's side. The Anbu's forces need to infiltrate quickly, and the intelligence from the Western Regions needs to be collected quickly." Meng Chen laughed loudly, looking at Jia Xu.

Seeing this, Jia Xu heaved a long sigh: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's hard for me to take on such a heavy responsibility." Jia Xu said helplessly, there are too many facts that Anbu wants to intervene.

"I have already considered this matter..." Wei Zhongxian walked in quickly after Meng Chen's voice was half spoken.

"Your Majesty, Guo Jia and Xi Zhong are asking to see you." Although Wei Zhongxian's voice was not loud, everyone present could hear him clearly.

Ever since Guo Jia was captured, Meng Chen has been letting him recuperate.

Especially after most of Cao Cao's men joined forces, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai still did not appear.

Now it seems that Mengchen is not without arrangements, but has been prepared for a long time.

"Haha, it's really time to come, Xuan!"

Not long after, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai came quickly, and they were stopped when they were about to pay homage.

"Fengxiao, Zhicai! You two..." Xun Yu's words were a little excited, because he found that Guo Jia and Xi Zhong's complexions were rosy, and their complexions were obviously much better than before.

"Wen Ruo!" The two were also extremely excited. From Cao Cao to Meng Chen's subordinates, it would be great to meet old acquaintances.

"Okay, okay! Wait for the three of you to talk later, let's talk about business first." Meng Chen hurriedly changed the subject, otherwise the three of them might have been able to talk for three days and three nights.

After saying this, Meng Chen looked at Jia Xu: "Mr. Wen He, how about Feng Xiao and Zhi Cai?"

"I wish I could, now Xu can sleep well!"

"Hahaha!" Jia Xu's words caused everyone to burst into laughter, and the overall atmosphere was obviously much more relaxed.

In the next hour, everyone discussed the route of the Western Regions march and the supply points set up along the way.

According to the situation in the Western Regions, it can be roughly divided into two routes.

The first route, the Western Expeditionary Army set off from Dunhuang, then went out of Yumen Pass, passed through Qiuci, arrived at Shule, and then arrived at Dawan.

The second route also starts from Dunhuang, then leaves Yangguan, passes through Dini and Chesha, arrives at Shule, and then reaches Dawan.

Regardless of the route, Dawan has become the advance base of Mengchen's westward expedition!

And when the Great Xia's Western Expeditionary Army arrived, no matter whether it was the newly rising Huacizimo or the Da Yueshi, they all had to make their own choices.

Otherwise, Mengchen doesn't mind taking them to the sword, and by the way, show off the military power of the Great Xia Empire!
