With one word from Liu Yan, he sent 60 people of Dawan to Loulan!

Loulan is now the most powerful country in the Western Regions.The 15-year-old Queen of Loulan, Man Libi, is simply the greatest queen in the history of Loulan.

Although there are rumors that Man Lizhu and Man Libi and Liu Yan are so and so, and so and so and so and so and so and so and so on, and they are a perfect match.

How is that?

I can only hate that I am a man, and Liu Zhoumu is not a man, so I have no chance at all!

Therefore, the current 34 monarchs have tried their best to guess Liu Yan's mind and flatter Liu Yan.Some people even offered to present beauties to Liu Yanjin.

However, what they didn't expect was that after hearing these suggestions, Liu Yan didn't even have the slightest smile on his face.

"Everyone!" Liu Yan finally spoke up, and said, "What is the guardian of the Western Regions, what is the king of Xiliang? I, Liu Yan, do not need your reminders! What is Kang Juguo? I just want to deal with it. That's all. Now, what I want to ask is...how to treat Guishuang?"

"Guishuang?" Man Lizhu's heart moved, and she said, "Master, does it mean to have peace talks with Guishuang?"

"I do have plans to send envoys to Guishuang. However, is it peace or war..."

Liu Yan smiled sadly, and said: "Just look at the King of Guishuang, Kanishejia, who is still acquainted."

……

Three days later, Guishuang Palace.

"Is there no news from Kangju?" Kanishka, King of Guishuang, asked his servant, Kalilun.

"Your Majesty, not yet." Kalilun bowed slightly, and persuaded him: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. The third prince is good at fighting, and he will lead an army of [-] and Kang Ju's army together to deal with the Han who came from afar. Army, nothing will happen."

Kanishka shook his head slightly, and said, "I'm not worried about any accidents. Rather, I can't wait!"

"Can't wait?"

"Yes, I just can't wait!" Kanishka nodded slightly and said, "Let me ask you, who owns the most extensive territory of Guishuang Kingdom?"

"Of course the king."

"Guishuang Kingdom, in whose hands is the most powerful?"

"Of course the king."

"No, no, no, you're not quite right!" Kanishka said, "It's okay to say that Guishuang is in the hands of the lonely king and has the most extensive territory. However, it is okay to say that Guishuang is in the In the lonely hand, the strongest is the most problematic."

"why?"

"It's very simple. Eighty years ago, my land in Guishuang was not much smaller than it is now, and I used to think that I was very powerful. The previous king even thought that he could be on an equal footing with the big Han, so he asked to marry the princess of the big Han.

However, soon, the [-] army of the former king was defeated by the [-] army led by the great Han Banchao, which became a great shame and humiliation to the former king.

I, Guishuang, also fell into a slump, lost a lot of land, and my momentum plummeted.It wasn't until this king came to the throne, took back those lost lands, and added some more, that I, Guishuang, gradually regained my former prestige! "

Caliron's eyes lit up.Said: "So, if our army can defeat the Han army this time, it proves that the Guishuang army is indeed stronger than it was 80 years ago. Your majesty, you will become a greater king than the previous king?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Your Majesty, don't worry." Kalilun said confidently, "Our army will win this battle with the right time, place and people. Your Majesty, you will surely get your wish!"

"This king thinks so too! Uh...Kalilon!"

"The servant is here!"

Kanishka said expectantly: "According to the days, the front military report should arrive. You go and set a table of wine and food for the king. The king will drink while waiting for the arrival of the good news!"

"According to the order!"

With little effort, a table of exquisite wine and dishes was placed.

While drinking slowly, Kanishka anxiously waited for the military report ahead.

With little effort, the military newspaper arrived.

However, it is not good news, but bad news!

"Report to the king, something is wrong!" A sergeant held up a sheepskin official document, and said with a mournful face: "Our army and the Han army fought in Kangju, and suffered an unprecedented defeat! The third prince was captured, and fifty thousand The official army and the [-] Kangju army have all become prisoners of the Han army! Please, my lord, make plans early!"

Clap!

As soon as the sergeant finished speaking, the wine glass in Kanishka's hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

Looking at the face of the Guishuang King, his eyes were already wide open and his face was blood red.

He yelled frantically: "You...what did you say? You...you...you say it again!"

Chapter 123 Want to Sue for Peace?Then you have to pay compensation

The sergeant held up the sheepskin document again, and said: "My lord, our army was defeated in Kangju, the [-] army, the whole army was wiped out!"

"Ah? The entire army of our army... was wiped out?"

Kanishka took the official document and looked at it carefully. The more he looked at it, the more depressed he became. He felt his head buzzing and shook it three times.

There is no way, he understands too well what it means for the entire army to be annihilated by Liu Yan with fifty thousand Guishuang's elite.

That means that Guishuang has repeated the mistakes of 80 years ago!

It means that my previous high expectations turned into a big joke!

It also means that I am not much better than the previous king, and my reputation will be destroyed in one lifetime!

……

Three days later, it was still Guishuang Palace.

Kanina Sega's face was gloomy, and the main ministers of Guishuang received the envoy sent by Liu Yan.

"Taktu! You ungrateful villain, how dare you come to Guishuang!"

"Do you really think our Guishuang's sword is not good?"

"Your Majesty, we have nothing to say to this villain! Just drag him out and chop him up, and ask Liu Yan to send another envoy!"

"Kill him! Kill him!"

……

After the ministers of Guishuang saw this "big man envoy", they shouted loudly and were filled with righteous indignation!

Without him, this messenger is not someone else, but Taktu, the original Lord of Kangju!

Well, in order to protect Kang Juguo, Guishuang lost more than [-] soldiers, and even the third prince was captured by Liu Yan.

Taktu, the lord of the Kangju Kingdom, was lucky, and instead acted as an envoy for Liu Yan!You are so willing to praise Liu Yan's stinky feet, why didn't you beg us Guishuang to send troops back then!

There was no fear on Taktu's face.

When Minister Guishuang's voice faded, he smiled wryly, and said: "Everyone! Everyone! You hate me so much, you want to fight and kill, I can understand. But, having said that, have you ever thought about it, Liu Yan? Why don't you send someone else to be an envoy? There are so many talented people in the Han Dynasty, so why can't Liu Yan get a good debater?"

Yeah... why?

Taktu's reminder immediately made Guishuang people aware of a fact that was hidden in their hearts but they were unwilling to believe——

If Liu Yan wants to negotiate with Guishuang, he doesn't need any debaters at all!

He just needs a megaphone!Whether it's Taktu or a cat or a dog, it's all the same to Liu Yan.

In other words, Liu Yan didn't take Guishuang seriously at all!

All of a sudden, the faces of Guishuang's monarchs and ministers changed slightly, and they could no longer maintain their previous aggressiveness.

"Tell me!"

Guishuang King Kanisha took a deep breath, and said, "What conditions does Liu Yan want to release my Guishuang prisoners of war? And what conditions do you want to live in peace with me, Guishuang?"

Taktu said: "There are mainly five conditions. First, Guishuang recognizes the rule of the Han Dynasty over the countries in the Western Regions. All Guishuang's negotiations with the Western Regions must go through the Han Dynasty, rather than contacting the countries of the Western Regions individually.

"It seems that Liu Yan is going to swallow the 36 countries in the Western Regions in one gulp? All right, Liu Yan used Kangju to fight and won the respect of the king, and the king did as he asked."

Guishuang was defeated, and the Western Regions were owned by the big Han, which is what the title should have meant.

Although Kanishka was very reluctant, he still agreed directly.

Immediately afterwards, Taktu raised Liu Yan's second condition: Guishuang donated 20 taels of silver and 50 taels of silver to the big man as a ransom for Guishuang's prisoners of war.

"Hmph, opening and closing your mouth is money. This Liu Yan doesn't look like a big Han official, but a businessman who only cares about profit!"

After hearing this condition, Kanishka said with disdain.

Of course, no matter how stubborn he is, he can't change the fact that Guishuang will have to pay compensation to the big man.

Well, isn't it 20 taels of gold and 50 taels of silver?

Compared to the tax that this king can collect from the goods of the great man, it is nothing.

However, what he never expected was that Liu Yan's third condition was to move Guishuang's tax on the goods of the big man!

Taktu said: "Liu Yan's third condition is to ask the king to promise that all the goods of the Han Dynasty will not exceed [-]% of the total value of the goods when they pass through Guishuang!"

"I..." Kanishka trembled with anger when he heard this condition, but he still had to try to maintain his composure, and said disdainfully: "It's just money! Liu Yan's situation is just like that."

In fact, at this moment, his heart is bleeding!

Why can Guishuang prosper?

The most critical reason is because he is an important node on the Silk Road!

The trade between Tianzhu and Dahan, between Anxi and Dahan, and even between Rome and Dahan must be transferred through Guishuang.

Guishuang doesn't have to do anything to get huge tax revenues. I don't know how beautiful life is!

It's good now, Liu Yan directly requested that Guishuang's tax on the goods of the big man be reduced to [-]%.

This at least reduces Guishuang's income from the big man by more than [-]%!Guishuang's national taxation must be reduced by at least [-]%!

This is simply eating Kanishka's flesh and drinking Kanishka's blood!

However, having said that, is it possible not to agree?

Whether money is important, or the army and his son, Kanishka can tell the difference!

He can only die like a duck!

"What about Liu Yan's fourth condition?"

Taktu said: "The fourth condition of Dahan is: the battle between Dahan and Guishuang is entirely due to Guishuang protecting and provoking the authority of Dahan and protecting Kang Juguo.

Guishuang Country should take full responsibility.Therefore, Guishuang should cede the city of Malakanda and its surrounding areas to the big man for peace! "

"No! Your Majesty, you must not agree to the unreasonable demands of the big man!"

"Big deal, let's stop those captured soldiers and horses, and fight Liu Yan to the death!"

"Bold! Damn it! Liu Yan, you are really deceiving people too much!"

"Liu Yan raised this condition, what do you think of our Guishuang country? We will never agree! Never agree!"

"Liu Yan wants Malakanda? Good! Ask him to lead the troops and get it yourself!"

……

Okay, as soon as Taktu finished speaking, the hall was filled with voices.The Guishuang ministers clenched their fists, waved their arms wildly, and clamored that they would never compromise with the big man.

Just now Liu Yan asked Guishuang to recognize the Han's control of the Western Regions, and asked Guishuang to pay compensation and reduce taxes. Although these ministers were unwilling, no one said anything.

But now, they can't take it anymore!

The reason is very simple, what Liu Yan wants is Malacanda!

The capital of the Khwarazmo region!

It can be said that half of Khwarazimo's strength is here.

The reason why Kanishka claims to have rejuvenated Guishuang is not because it reconquered Khwarazmo and Northern Tianzhu?

Liu Yan is good, he didn't do anything, he just wanted to take away half of Huarazimo's strength.

This is simply slapping Guishuang King Kanisha in the face like crazy!

It's like riding on Guishuang's neck to shit and pee!

Tolerable or unbearable?

It's really deceiving! "
