At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

He was shocked when he heard the news, thinking that Wei Guo was taking advantage of the fire to rob, and after learning the news that they were having civil strife, he wanted to interfere to share the benefits.

This is also a guilty conscience. When Wei Jun took over Dawan Kingdom, he thought about preventing Wei Guo from interfering in the situation in Central Asia, so he planned to capture Wei Guo's envoys to turn against Wei Guo, and sent troops to repel Wei Jun.

As a result, civil strife broke out, and it has not been completely quelled to this day. There are still people rebelling, and the interior is quite unstable. Big hair.

So he was very nervous and sent many spies to the border to inquire about the situation and get specific information.

It took a lot of effort and bribed many local people, and then I learned that the direction of Wei Jun's deployment was westward, and the target should not be Guishuang, nor Anxi next to Guishuang, but Kangju State to the north of them.

Once this was confirmed, Emperor Guishuang suddenly remembered the news that Kang Juguo had sent troops to help Dawan Kingdom resist the Wei army, and he was overjoyed.

Okay, okay, as long as they don't come to trouble me, if the people of Wei Guo come to trouble me at this time, then there is really a big problem.

So after much deliberation, Emperor Guishuang decided to keep a small number of troops to guard the north, and he still devoted all his energy to the counter-insurgency war in the south, trying to kill all the rebels as soon as possible.

Chapter 1466 One thousand three hundred and seventy six Emperor Caracalla set his sights on the East

Not to mention, the four-year-long rebellion of the Guishuang Empire has not subsided until now.

The opponent is the actual controller of a place, with a high position and weight, and his strength is not weak. On the contrary, he is a bit strong and has a solid foundation.

The Guishuang Empire's control over the southern territory is already quite limited.

So this rebellion is essentially a battle between two countries, not a battle between the emperor and the traitor.

So no matter from which point of view, it is very dangerous to open up a second battlefield at this time.

And if Wei Jun took advantage of the fire to loot at this time, the Guishuang Empire might really come to an end.

Coincidentally, the Parthia Empire was busy at the border friction with the Roman Empire at this time, and was not prepared to deal with the military threat from Wei.

When the State of Wei attacked the State of Dawan, the Anxi Empire had no intention of competing with the people of the State of Wei, so they did not intervene. They just wanted to monopolize the trade routes in Central Asia.

The main enemy they faced was the Romans. The Romans thought that they made too much money and took too much money, so they repeatedly sent troops to fight.

This time, I don't know what happened to the new emperor of Rome, the guy they called Caracalla, who actually led the imperial guards to kill him again.

He was conducting military exercises on the border, and by the way, he was engaging in friction, as if I wanted to fight you.

It seems that he looks rich and powerful.

When he was on the expedition, his frame was decorated with gold, and the battle flag was embroidered with gold edges. He looked like a wealthy warrior.

While showing force, showing financial power at the same time, in order to hit the fighting will of the rest of the army.

However, this does not have the desired effect.

The enmity between the Parthian Empire and the Roman Empire ran deep.

The Roman army also excavated the Parthian Tomb, so the Parthian Empire has a sworn feud with it.

Once the two armies confront each other, it must be the thunder that stirs the fire, and they can beat each other's brains out.

The matter has come to this point, the war is a foregone conclusion, all the energy of the Parthia Empire is on the western front, and the eastern front must be stabilized no matter what, and there must be no loss.

As soon as he heard that the Wei army was gathering on the eastern front, as if they were going to fight, they quickly sent people to inquire about the news and inquire about the situation.

In the end, it was judged that the target of the Wei army's advance was Kang Juguo, not Guishuang, and of course it was not them, so the Parthians breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to go back to the western front to fight passionately with the Roman army.

Depending on the situation, it can be transformed into a middle-door confrontation at any time.

Caracalla's operation is mainly to accumulate military prestige, and by the way consume the strength of the military leaders in Central Asia, and then satisfy the imperial guards' need for spoils, and recharge their life cycle.

If there is no war for a long time, the guardsmen will be very angry.

What the emperors bought with money is only the temporary right to use the throne. The time is limited, and they have to recharge at any time.

Therefore, launching a war to plunder wealth itself is a recharging behavior. Only recharging can become stronger, and only recharging can have a bright future.

This point was first realized by the Roman emperors in the third century AD.

From another point of view, through the letters written to him by the envoys he sent to the Wei Empire, he learned part of the situation of the Wei Empire, and had a little understanding of the political status quo and power model of the Wei Empire. Surprised and jealous.

That emperor was simply a super political strongman who said what he said. No one dared to oppose him, and the people of the whole country paid taxes to him. There was no military leader in the entire Wei Empire, and everything was directly managed by the government he ruled.

How did he do that?

Emperor Caracalla was shocked and puzzled.

In some subsequent letters, he learned that the former Wei Empire was similar to the Roman Empire he ruled, and it was also in a divided state with many warlords, but the appearance of this emperor changed everything.

He violently removed all obstacles, eliminated all warlords and separatist forces with his powerful army and superb talents, unified the country, and then set up his own government to manage every piece of land.

In order to better manage the land, he built roads everywhere, and built the roads of the empire to extend in all directions. Wherever the roads can extend, his government can manage them.

What a terrifying dominance.

The wealth of the world truly belongs to him alone!

Caracalla felt that her saliva was about to drip, and felt that she was constantly eating lemons, which were so sour.

The more he understands the Wei Empire, the more he understands the political status quo of this country, he is very sour, so sour that he can't help himself.

No, no!

He can, why can't I?

He also came over from that time and wiped out all the enemies with violence!

He can, I can't?

We are all the supreme rulers of a country, he can, so can I!

In order to accumulate prestige and exercise the combat effectiveness of the army, let's start with the Parthian Empire first.

Emperor Caracalla set his sights on the East, and he was very confident.

Not only because of his self-confidence, but because he had recently acquired a funny, smart, young military staff officer.

A military staff officer of noble birth and exceptional intelligence from the State of Wei.

This staff officer came from the distant state of Wei, and came with the fleet of Wei. After he came to Rome, he quickly mastered some Greek and Latin expressions with his amazing learning ability. People smack their tongues.

After a few months, he was able to speak Greek and Latin fluently with Emperor Caracalla.

They talked about some military issues, because at that time the Emperor Caracalla was already preparing to attack the Parthian Empire.

He expressed his interest and asked to follow the army to see the real battlefield. Emperor Caracalla liked this young man very much, so he granted his request and let him join him in this war.

It was just a whim, and Emperor Caracalla never thought that this young man had military talent and talent. He just studied with him for a while, and he basically understood the situation between the Roman army and the Parthian army.

Then start trying to make an opinion.

The professional staff officers around Emperor Caracalla felt it was ridiculous, but Emperor Caracalla trusted him, tried to adopt some of his suggestions, and initiated certain actions.

Under his suggestion, Emperor Caracalla set up the battlefield according to his tactics several times in a row, successfully attacked the elite cavalry of the Parthian Empire, achieved considerable results, and captured a general of the Parthian army.

And this is just a small test of the young military staff officer.

Many professional staff officers were shocked, shocked by this young man's sharp thinking and amazing insight.

This young military staff officer gave him extremely different senses.

Moreover, as a native of Wei, he has nothing to do with any forces here. A pure outsider and pure neutrality, he can be appointed by him and become his excellent support.

His background as the son of the chief assistant of Wei's cabinet will also bring him great convenience, making it difficult for any Roman forces to attack him easily, but anyone who wants to attack him must consider the forces of Wei behind him .

so perfect.

Thinking of this, Emperor Caracalla felt very happy.

The young man named Cao Chong was handsome and intelligent, and he had a keen sense of military affairs that was different from ordinary people. He could notice things that even the veteran military staff around him didn't notice.

And discovered some flaws in the Anxi army that were not easy to find, and made targeted countermeasures, so that the Anxi army suffered losses and suffered brutal blows.

Emperor Caracalla even planned to wait for him to make some contributions, let him be his chief military staff officer, give him an official, give him high treatment, status and power, let him become his trusted official, and keep him in Rome.

With Cao Chong, Emperor Caracalla felt that he could rise up.

As soon as he rises up, the aging and declining Parthian Empire will be in trouble.

The two major powers in Central Asia each have their own worries and frustrations.

At this time, it happened to be the time when Wei Jun marched into Kangju.

When Kang Juguo heard the news that Wei Jun was gathering at Zhenxi Dufu Mansion, he almost immediately thought that Wei Jun was here to deal with them.

To say it was a guilty conscience, after the new king killed the old king and ascended the throne, out of luck and saving face, he didn't plead guilty to Wei Guo in time, but planned to expose it as if it had never happened.

They themselves have suffered heavy losses.

Of the 2000 troops beaten, only more than 2000 people came back alive. It is said that [-] heads were beheaded, and some were arrested.

More than 2 young and strong men were lost in one breath, which was a huge blow to Kang Juguo.

Kangju country is a semi-nomadic and semi-settled country, and the maximum number of soldiers and horses that can be mobilized is no more than [-], losing a quarter in one breath. What a tragic loss?

For a while, every family was crying, and every family was mourning the dead relatives in their own way.

A large group of women became widows, a large group of parents lost their children, and a large group of children lost their fathers. The resentment of the people against the king reached its peak.

Taking advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the new king launched an army to crusade against the old king, successfully killed the old king who rashly supported the Dawan Kingdom and caused disasters, and became king himself.

But the problem wasn't solved, it just seemed like it wasn't brought up again.

After a few years of stable life, he felt that the Wei people seemed to have forgotten what happened at the beginning and were reassuring. As a result, he never expected that Wei Jun would come just after a few days of stability.

There are quite a large number of Wei troops, and they are well equipped, and there are many horses. The army formed by them is marching towards the territory of Kangju State, and it is majestic.

It's not to trouble others, it's already confirmed, it's to trouble the Kangju people.

They have sent a declaration of war.

This is fine.

Kang Ju's country fell into a severe panic almost immediately.

Chapter 1467 One Thousand 370 Seven Zhang Fei Decided to Fight a Guerrilla

For Kang Juguo, Wei Jun and Wei Guo are powerful representatives.

They were able to annihilate the Dawan Kingdom and defeat their [-] troops at the beginning, but now they will only be stronger and more difficult to deal with. Kang Ju himself has obviously not become stronger, and they know this in their hearts.

Now that Wei Jun has come, it is absolutely impossible to spare them, and it is impossible to resolve the conflict between the two sides.

However, although King Kang Juxin was also very panicked, he was still eating meat with a knife after all. He also relied on the army and force to seize the throne. He fought all the way, and the throne was full of blood.

Therefore, fear is fear, and action must be taken, and we cannot sit still and wait for death.

So he did three things.

First, ask Guishuang and Anxi for help. Even if you can't ask for help, at least you need the solidarity of Anxi and Guishuang, or protest to Wei Jun and threaten them to go back.

Whether there is solidarity means whether there is a possible reinforcement. Even if the reinforcement does not come, it can actually put some psychological pressure on the Wei army, so that the Wei army will always remain vigilant and cannot go all out.

Second, hand over the bones of the killed old king of Kangju to Wei Jun, and hand over his descendants who have not yet died. Let the Wei Jun commander kill him to vent his anger, and then ask him to retreat.

Anyway, Wei Jun's reason was that the previous king had offended them, not the current king. They hoped that Wei Jun could recognize the difference between the Kangju country under the previous king's rule and the Kangju country under the current king's rule.

Third, prepare the army for war, issue a national mobilization order, and call on the five little kings in Kangju to come to serve the king with their own troops and horses.

Everyone clenched their fists and moved their energy to one place. When they had no other choice, they were forced to fight with their swords. This was the last hope of everyone under all kinds of helplessness, and we must not take it lightly.

Even if we can't fight, even if the national strength is far inferior, Wei Jun's logistics supplies must be very difficult. If we work hard in one place, we will definitely be able to win a certain amount of vitality.

He also fought to survive.

But soon he realizes that the situation is far worse than the worst he imagined.

The reactions of Guishuang Kingdom and Anxi Kingdom were very cold, or there was no positive reaction at all.

They just keep saying that they have their own difficulties and that support is out of the question.

It's okay to express solidarity, let me add verbal support-Kang Juguo must work hard, and must work hard to defeat Wei Jun.

But write a letter to the Wei Jun coach or something.
