Before Tangning came, she had a rough understanding of the situation in the countries in the Western Regions.

The Western Region is known as 36 countries, but there are less than ten countries with a population of more than [-]. With a population of several thousand, they can be regarded as medium-sized countries in the Western Region. Of course, there are only a handful of small pocket countries like Shan Huan and Wu Tan Zi.

Although these countries are small, they are also one of the many countries in the Western Region. The horse thieves in the desert dare to loot caravans, but they dare not take action against these small countries.

Once they destroy a small country, the powerful countries in the Western Region will completely wipe them out in the desert.

However, this was already a thing of the past.

Now the Western Region has become a mess. Those big countries can't take care of themselves, so how can they care about these small countries? That's why a group of horse thieves looted Shan Huan.

The Wutanzi Kingdom is not far from Shanhuan and is not much bigger than Shanhuan. Tangning was worried about them for a while, until she learned from Bahar that although the Wutanzi Kingdom is small, its old, weak, women and children are all good at martial arts, and it can be said that all the people in Wutanzi Kingdom are good at martial arts. If you want to kill Wu Tanzi, you will need a gang of horse thieves with at least a thousand people.

In the Western Region, small horse thief gangs usually only have a dozen people. The one who massacred Shan Huan today was considered a medium horse thief force, and there were not many horse thief forces with more than a thousand people in the entire desert.

Their targets are all large caravans loaded with goods, and they try their best to go head-to-head with the Wutanzi Kingdom, and the price-performance ratio is extremely low.

This caused the Wutanzi Kingdom to stand out among these small countries. Small horse thieves could not defeat them, and large horse thieves looked down upon them. This also made the Wutanzi Kingdom safer.

Shan Huan and Wu Tan Zi are both small and small countries. The two countries are not far apart and have been on good terms for generations. The remaining people of Shan Huan will go to Wu Tan Zi tomorrow.

It just so happened that the Wutanzi Kingdom was also on the route of Tang Ning and others. Tomorrow, we would escort these Shanhuan people there and buy some food from the Wutanzi Kingdom before they could set off again.

Early the next morning, Tang Ning and others packed their bags. Dozens of Shan Huanguo's survivors had already assembled.

They burned down dozens of houses in the country. Regardless of whether the Wutanzi Congress would accept them or not, this was already a home they could not return to.

"Let's go."

Tangning got on the camel and walked out of the oasis. The people of Shan Huan Kingdom also rode on the camels. The camels carried them and their luggage and walked deep into the desert.

After entering the desert for more than half a month, Tangning had already become accustomed to this environment. Tang Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao were already used to it, but after seeing the "big scene" yesterday, they became listless again.

Tang Ning was riding a camel, intentionally lagging a few steps behind, walking side by side with Tang Yaoyao. She glanced at her and asked, "What, do you regret it?"

She was the one who vowed to stay by Tang Ning's side and not let him flirt with women in the Western Regions, but now she has become a frost-beaten eggplant, hiding her pretty face under her cloak and veil, riding swaying on a camel.

Hearing Tang Ning's voice, her beautiful eyes under her cloak rolled her eyes at Tang Ning, gritted her teeth and said, "I don't regret it!"

Tangning looked at her and Xiaoxiao, thought for a moment, and said, "Why don't you just stay there until we get to Wutanzi Country? I'll take you back after I finish my business in Xiaowan."

Tang Ning knew that the Western Region was in chaos, but she never expected that it would become this chaotic.

After seeing Shan Huan's tragedy today, he decided not to let Tang Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao take risks with them again.

It is naturally best to stay in Chen Country, but it is a pity that they have been in the desert for half a month. It will be more dangerous for them to go back. Due to the special characteristics of Wu Tan Zi Country, the horse thieves will not take action against them, leaving behind a man who is proficient in poison. Gu's elders take care of them, which is enough to deal with all dangers.

"I want to go with you." Tang Yaoyao glanced at him and said, "I don't want to have another sister after you come back."

Tangning knew that she meant what she said, but after feeling her determination, she no longer forced herself.

However, if Tang Shui had not found her parents, their engagement would not have been annulled, and Tang Yaoyao would not have had an extra sister, but an extra sister.

After all, there was that marriage certificate before Tang Ning existed. After all, Tang Shui should be the sister of all of them.

Tang Yaoyao was riding on the camel, looking at him and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Tangning put her thoughts aside and said, "You can follow if you want. I won't worry if I leave you in Wutanzi Country..."

……

The Wutanzi Kingdom is dozens of miles west of the Shanhuan Kingdom. The camels are not very fast in the desert, and they can reach it in a few hours.

Looking from a distance, a low earth wall appeared in the desert. The wall was only about ten feet high. Most of the loess on it had peeled off, making it look even more dilapidated.

A place surrounded by earthen walls is the Wutanzi Kingdom.

Although it was said to be a country, its area was actually not as large as a village in Chen State. When Tang Ning and his party approached the "city gate", a group of guards armed with weapons trotted over from the city gate.

The old man Shan Huanguo came out and had a conversation with them. The leader looked at Tangning and his group before leading them towards the city.

Although Wutanzi Country is small, there are actually shops and restaurants on the main streets of the country. Some people who obviously look like Han people are coming in and out of the shops. It is obvious that there are businessmen who have established their business here.

Tangning and others were taken directly to the palace. It was said to be a palace, but it was actually a larger earthen house. A man wearing bright yellow clothes and covered with many jewelry sat on a high seat and watched them walk in.

"See the king!"

Everyone in Shan Huanguo put their palms on their chests and bowed to the man.

Tang Ning and others also followed the same pattern of salutes. After all, although other people's countries are small, they are still real kingdoms, and the proper etiquette is still indispensable.

Bahar looked up and muttered in a low voice: "Why did they change people?"

Tangning looked over and hurriedly explained: "When I came here last year, he was not the leader of Wu Tan Zi..."

Although these countries in the Western Regions have small land areas and not many people in the country, within the low walls surrounded by loess, people are divided into three classes, including poor people and rich households, ministers and heads of state.

Similarly, the intrigues and intrigues in the Chen Kingdom's court are not uncommon here. Moreover, these small countries in the Western Regions have a small number of people, so it is very easy to launch a rebellion. With dozens of people under their command, they can launch a rebellion. A coup.

This sounds like playing house, but it is a true portrayal of the domestic political struggles in these small countries in the Western Regions.

"I'm sorry to hear this news." The leader of the Wutanzi Kingdom looked at everyone in the Shan Huan Kingdom, with a trace of regret on his face, and said: "The birthday of the mother of the country will be in a few days, and I originally planned to invite you, the king, to come here to attend. Banquet, it’s a pity…”

He sighed and said: "Those damn horse thieves should really be burned by the fire of hell day and night, and their souls should be burned to ashes..."

The old man stepped forward, knelt down on one knee, and said: "The country of Shan Huan has been destroyed by those horse thieves. We are all homeless. I ask the king to show mercy and take in us remnants. The king's Shanhuan’s kindness will never be forgotten by the people..."

The leader of the Wutanzi Kingdom looked at them. If Shan Huan's whole country defected, he would naturally welcome it. This would greatly enhance the strength of the Wutanzi Kingdom.

But all the young and strong men of Shan Huan Kingdom have died in the hands of horse thieves. Only these old, weak, women and children are left. Not only can they not make Wu Tan Zi Kingdom stronger, but they will become a burden to them.

His eyes flickered, he looked at the old man, shook his head and said: "Shan Huan and Wu Tan Zi are friendly neighboring countries and should help each other, but now the situation in the Western Region is in chaos, and our country cannot protect itself, so how can we protect you? "

When the leader of the Wutanzi Kingdom said this, he clearly refused, and the expressions of everyone in the Shan Huan Kingdom instantly turned pale.

Although Tang Ning couldn't understand their conversation, she could probably guess the outcome by looking at the expressions of everyone in Shan Huanguo.

The leader of the Wutanzi Kingdom glanced at everyone, his eyes suddenly lit up, and when he looked at the old man Shan Huan, a smile appeared on his face again, and he said: "However, if our country does not take you in, wouldn't Shan Huan have to If my country is destroyed, how can I watch my friendly country perish?”

The old man was already in despair. When he heard this, his expression was startled, and his face quickly showed joy, and he asked: "So, the king has agreed to take us in?"

The leader of the Wutanzi Kingdom did not answer the question directly. Instead, he looked behind Tang Ning at Tang Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao who were wearing cloaks. Their cloaks were used to protect them from wind and sand in the desert. Their texture was not heavy, but thin. A layer of gauze cannot completely cover the pretty face under the cloak.

The leader of the Wutanzi Kingdom looked at them and asked the old man: "Are these two girls also citizens of your Shanhuan Kingdom?"
