The Three Kingdoms

So in his heart, in this Western Region, there are only soldiers and horses from the Protectorate of the Western Regions, where did the soldiers and horses of the Great Wu come from.This is not talking nonsense, what is it?

"Hehe. It's not that I'm talking nonsense, but Ban Duhu's eyes are a little shallow!"

Meng Gongwei said calmly: "The Western Regions I'm talking about are not just the Western Regions indicated by the map of the Western Regions Governor's Mansion in the eyes of Ban Duhu!"

"Meng Gongwei, what do you mean?"

Ban Lu jumped up against the case and said coldly.

"Banduhu, don't be angry. Listen to me. The Western Regions in Banduhu's eyes are different from the Western Regions in the eyes of our Great Wu. The Western Regions in our eyes. The west of the Central Plains is all the Western Regions!"

Meng Gongwei said.

"What envoy Meng said about the Western Regions is outside the territory of the Protectorate of the Western Regions?" Gai Ling asked with cold eyes.

"That's right, I don't know if the two adults can hear about Guishuang Kingdom?"

Meng Gongwei nodded, then asked back.

"Guishuang?"

Ban Lu's pupils couldn't help shrinking slightly, he was no stranger to the country of Guishuang.Because back then, his ancestor Ban Chao defeated Guishuang Kingdom.

"Guishuang, is that Da Yuezhi?"

Gailing frowned and asked.

In his memory, Guishuang should be another name for Da Yueshi, who is also a member of the Western Regions, located in the south of Congling.Separated by Congling Ridge, the connection with the countries of the Western Regions is not very deep.

"Lao Gai, the Guishuang Kingdom is the Guishuang Kingdom, and the Da Yuezhi is the Da Yuezhi. They used to be one, but now they are two different forces!"

Ban Lu explained in a deep voice: "Beside the Congling Ridge, the Da Yue clan lives in the form of tribes. And further south is the Guishuang Kingdom. Guishuang is an empire. It is rumored that their national strength is comparable to the countries of the Western Regions. !"

In the past, Guishuang and Da Yuezhi were still one, but later they were divided into Beida Yuezhi and Nanguishuang Empire. There is a lot of information in this aspect recorded in the classics left by Ban Chao.

"Messenger Meng, what do you mean by saying this?" Gai Ling pondered for a moment, then raised his head, looked at Meng Gongwei, and asked.

"What I want to tell you is that now the [-] soldiers of our Great Wu Dynasty have entered Guishuang from the sea for several years, and have achieved a brilliant result. Most of the mountains and rivers of the entire Guishuang Empire have been given by our Great Wu Dynasty. Take it!"

Meng Gongwei said word by word: "This is what I said, my soldiers and horses in the Western Regions!"

In fact, Meng Gongwei knew very well that if he wanted to convince them, he had to put some pressure on them. He believed that Banlu and the others still recognized the Central Plains, but they had been away for a long time, and they felt strange and independent.

"Are you scaring us?"

Ban Lu's face was a little horrified, his pupils suddenly shrank, and a cold light flashed across.

"Banduhu, do I need to scare you?"

Meng Gongwei looked at Ban Lu carefully. The whole Ban Dingyuan should be a mighty general. He could survive in the Western Regions for more than ten years by relying on the soldiers and horses of the Western Regions Protectorate. He has no skills and died early. After thinking for a while, I continued: "Okay, Ban Duhu, just think I'm scaring you, then I'll ask Ban Duhu, what's on your mind now?"

"You should be in Han!"

When Ban Lu heard this, he was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice.

"The Han family has long since perished, is it possible that Ban Duhu still wants to restore the country for the Han?" Meng Gongwei sneered.

"I'm a son of the Western Regions, what can I do to restore the country!"

Ban Lu's face was serious, he gritted his teeth, and said: "Even if the Han family dies, it doesn't mean that I will vote for you Wu family. The Central Plains has no master. How can you convince me Ban Lu!"

If the Central Plains has changed hands, he will be fine. It is nothing to surrender to the new court. After all, they are all from the Central Plains, but it is just a change of dynasty. However, the Central Plains is obviously still fighting. Who will win and who will lose? Naturally, he was unwilling to take refuge in Soochow just like that.

Hearing this, Meng Gongwei's gaze became a little cold. He thought for a while before continuing: "Ban Duhu, not to mention the situation of the Han Dynasty. Not to mention the current situation in the Central Plains. These are a little far away from the Western Regions. I just want to Just ask, we are all from the Central Plains, this cannot be changed, right?"

"That's right, we are all from the Central Plains. No one can change this!" Ban Lu nodded solemnly, and this point has never changed.

"Since this is the case, it will be easy to handle!"

Meng Gongwei said: "Banduhu, now in the Western Regions, the Protectorate of the Western Regions has already lost its majesty and cannot rule the Western Regions. Should we people in the Central Plains be united? If Han Sui's army storms the city and kills each other, You are just losing both sides, and in the end you will naturally let the barbarians like Qiuci and Wusun benefit, are you willing?"

Ban Lu's breath was suffocated, and the light in his eyes sank slightly.

If there is a real fight, whoever wins will be the loss of the Protectorate of the Western Regions, and it will not even be able to keep its dry city.

"Messenger Meng, you are indeed an excellent envoy. Your tongue is as sharp as a sword, and what you say is indeed very reasonable, but we are the Protectorate of the Western Regions. In the Western Regions, I am the orthodox. Why don't they take refuge in us? It's us Surrender and wait!"

Gai Ling said with a sneer.

"This question is easy to analyze. You only have [-] soldiers and horses. Do you think you can command [-] soldiers outside the city?"

Meng Gongwei narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light burst out of his eyes: "Even if I persuade Han Sui to surrender to you, can you hold back? In the future, when my great Wu generals go north, what should you do?"

When Ban Lu and Gai Ling heard this, their expressions changed slightly.

After all.The strong are king.

Their military strength is inferior to that of Han Sui, even if Han Sui surrendered, they dare not accept him, because as long as Han Sui enters the city, he can directly turn against the enemy.

"Ban Duhu, Gai Changshi, are you having a hard time recently?"

Seeing that they were moved, Meng Gongwei continued: "Not only you, but even the Central Plains people living in the Western Regions are having a hard time. Without the protection of the Central Plains, you have no ability to control the overall situation of the Western Regions. Bullying, and my Great Wu Dynasty has absolute confidence to clean up the Western Regions, why are you so stubborn and do not surrender to my Great Wu?"

"Meng Gongwei, even if what you said is true, Wu Jun is now in the Guishuang area, but whether he can go north to the Western Regions is still in the middle, why should I believe you?"

Ban Lu said in a cold voice: "Over the years, my Protectorate has been bullied by barbarians, and I have been sending envoys back to the Central Plains to ask for help, but who wants to send troops? You just want to take down the Protectorate of the Western Regions. Take it for granted!"

"The Central Plains is in chaos, the Han Dynasty is destroyed, and the princes of all parties are fighting for the Central Plains. Who can take care of the Western Regions!"

Hearing the words, Meng Gongwei couldn't help sighing in his heart, and said faintly: "Our Great Wu Dynasty's military strength in the Central Plains is also tight now, but we still gritted our teeth and sent troops to the Western Regions, for what purpose, to tell you, the Central Plains I haven’t forgotten you, our Great Wu is in the south, we can’t walk the Silk Road, we can only go up by sea, and fight all the way, isn’t this sincere?”

"Don't say it so righteously, you just want to open up territories!" Gai Ling said.

"That's right!"

Meng Gongwei didn't deny it: "We want to open up new territories and show our prestige to the barbarians. Is this wrong?"

Ban Lu was silent for a long time before he said: "Meng Gongwei, what you said is correct, but you lack a reason for me to trust you!"

"Banduhu, after you were powerful in Ban Dingyuan in the Western Regions, don't you want to try the power of Ban Dingyuan again?"

When Meng Gongwei heard the words, his eyes moved, and he said persuasively: "There is no reason, it's just whether you want to believe it or not. As long as you believe in our Great Wu Dynasty, you will have this opportunity!"

When Ban Lu heard this, his breathing suddenly became heavier.

Gai Xun's gaze also became serious.

"Well, it would be very difficult for you to surrender to Han Sui's army outside the city. Why don't you form a peaceful alliance under my auspices and unite to resist Kucha, Wusun and other countries. After all, you also need an ally now. I guarantee that Han Sui's soldiers and horses will not be incorporated into the Protectorate of the Western Regions, and if the main force of the Wu army goes north in the future, I will discuss the funeral later, how about it?"
