Rebirth: I’m Lv Bu - Chapter 980
Huo Tuo came to Queen Wu Sun and bowed and said, “Queen!” Queen Wu Sun turned her gaze back and asked, “What’s the matter with you?” Huo Tuo said, “Your Majesty, although the old prime minister said it. It made sense, but the minister thought that he could not pin all hopes on Lü Bu’s willingness to accept our peace request. The minister thought that he must prepare for the worst results and order all the troops to be deployed along various passes to prevent accidents.” The queen nodded and said, “I have thought of this too, so go and pass the order for me.” Huo Tuo promised and stepped back.
Queen Wusun looked at the distance and thought for a while, then quickly walked to her bookcase and sat down, unfolded two blank parchments, lifted a quill, and wrote a letter separately. After checking and confirming that they were correct, she called a female officer and handed her two letters, saying: “Immediately send a reliable person to Guishuang and Kangju!” The female officer accepted the two letters and responded. , Went in a hurry.
What did Wusun say about Guishuang and Kangju? In fact, these are all ancient countries. Kangju is a neighboring country to the northwest of Wusun, and its territory is probably between Lake Balkhash and the Aral Sea. The country has a population of nearly one million. Although it is a nomadic people, they are very good at doing business. Kangju merchants have been frequent visitors on the Silk Road for hundreds of years. They have an army of about 150,000, and their strength is not inferior to Wusun. And Guishuang is even more powerful, generally known as the Guishuang Empire, one of the so-called four great powers of ancient Eurasia in later generations. The four great powers of ancient Eurasia refer to the Han Dynasty, Rome, Guishuang, and Anxi. The territory of the Guishuang Empire is very vast, probably from the present Tajikistan to the Caspian Sea, Afghanistan, and the Indus Valley. The Guishuang Empire is to the west of Wusun, but it does not border Wusun. The two countries are separated by a large country. Since the Guishuang Empire is one of the four great powers in the ancient Eurasian continent, its own strength should not be underestimated, with a population of nearly 10 million and a military strength of more than 500,000. It is not too difficult to mobilize a million troops when necessary. This Queen Wusun contacted Kang Juguishuang while seeking peace with Qin Jun, but she didn’t know what she had made.
In other words, the coalition led by Wusun not only failed to achieve any results in the face of the powerful forces of the Qin Army, but also hit and suffered a lot of losses. Countries in the Western Regions to the south of the Tianshan Mountains broke away from the control of Wusun and lost their sincerity to the Qin army. Many countries and even the king personally came to Puchanghai to meet Ailang.
While pacifying the countries, Ailang sent liaison officers to the surrendering countries to understand the specific situation of the countries according to the previously formulated plan, and at the same time served as a channel for communication between the two sides. At the same time, the Han merchants with the most acute sense of smell have poured into Pu Changhai in groups, preparing to use Pu Changhai as their new base for operating the Western Regions.
On this day, while Ailang was walking with Huang Yueying on the beach of Puchang, an army officer suddenly reported: “Enjoy the lord, the envoy of Wusun is here, and hope to see the lord!” Ailang couldn’t help but smile, and looked at Huang Yueying, smiling: “It’s just as you expected Yueying! Wusun really sent someone to ask for peace!” Huang Yueying smiled and said, “It’s hard to say now. Although Wusun’s envoy is here, I don’t know whether it is here for peace. Ai Lang smiled: “What else can they do if they don’t come to ask for peace? Is it possible to give me a statement of war? They don’t have the courage to measure them!” Huang Yueying smiled slightly.
Ailang said to the officer who reported the news: “Go and bring that Wusun messenger here. It’s too wasteful to stay in the tent in such a good weather!” The officer promised and hurried away, leading him in a while. An old man with white beard and hair and gorgeous official gown came over.
The officer had always been Ailang, and said to the old man: “This is our lord, His Royal Highness Qin! Next to our lord’s wife, Princess Qin!” The old man hurriedly bowed: “Welcome to His Royal Highness Qin, to the princess and empress! I am Prime Minister Wusun. Sapporo, please come to visit His Majesty King Qin at the request of His Majesty the Queen and ask His Majesty Qin to sin!”
Ailang smiled and said, “Your queen is slow enough! Only then did I realize that it is time to beg!” Sapporo hurriedly said, “Our country will never dare to be an enemy of a big man. For more than a hundred years, our Wusun has been a big man. The most reliable ally! We once jointly wiped out the Huns, and we can be said to be good friends who lived and died together! This time it was really because of the villain’s instigation that this caused such a misunderstanding! my country’s rudeness also invites King Qin Haihan!”
Ailang smiled and said: “Since it is a misunderstanding, then it is enough to make it clear.” Sapporo repeated. Irene walked to Sapporo, and Sapporo couldn’t help bending down further, feeling a little nervous for no reason. Ai Lang said: “I know that you have doubts and concerns about my entry into the Western Regions. I can tell you clearly and unmistakably that I am not a threat to your countries, and I will not want to devour you like wolves, tigers and leopards! My army! The reason for entering the Western Regions is because your previous actions made me feel threatened. I must guarantee that similar things will not happen again in the Western Regions. This time, it is inevitable to march into the Western Regions. Secondly, our army entered the Western Regions for To manage the order of the Western Regions, so that you don’t attack each other and make life miserable, but also to protect the important trade channel of the Silk Road. Therefore, if Wusun surrenders, Wusun will not only be safe, but will also integrate into the economic circle of the Central Plains. Greatly benefit from it!”
Sapporo only promised, and immediately said in a very sincere manner: “Here is the sincerity of our Queen and Wusun to express our surrender to King Qin! We Wusun are willing to serve King Qin as we did in the Han Empire! King Qin has his orders. We Wusun will do our best!”
Ailang smiled and said: “Okay! You made a correct decision! You will definitely not regret it in the future! You must be very tired from coming so far, so let’s go and rest. Tonight, we will have a banquet. Talk more.” Sapporo bowed and promised. Ailang asked the officer to take Sapporo down to rest.
Ai Long watched Sapporo go far, turned his head and asked Huang Yueying: “Yueying, what do you think?” Huang Yueying thought: “This Sapporo, I have heard of it. I heard that it was him decades ago. Representing Wusun as an envoy to the Han Dynasty. Wusun used him as an envoy to seek peace, and his speech and manners are very humble and sincere. There should be no problem….” “But?” Ai Lang asked. Huang Yueying was taken aback, then suppressed some thoughts in her mind, smiled and gave Ai Lang a white look, and said, “There is nothing but it.” After a pause, “There should be no problem. But this is nothing. Sun’s strength is not weak, unlike other Western Region countries, we cannot treat Wusun in the same way we treat other small Western Region countries.”
Ailang nodded and smiled: “Mao Jie said the same in the letter sent not long ago!” Then he said, “I want to build a city in the Western Regions as a stronghold for our army and merchants in the Western Regions. It can also be used as a forward base to continue going west!”
Huang Yueying said: “My little girl has been thinking about this too!” He looked up and glanced into the distance, and said: “The Western Regions are very vast, and a city alone may not be able to achieve our goals! So the little girl thought, we should Plan several cities!” Ai Long thoughtfully nodded, and said: “You are right! This should be done!” Then he smiled and said, “I think the first city is best built on the west bank of the Puchang Sea.” Huang Yueying smiled. Said: “This is really similar to what a hero sees! The little girl also thinks that Pu Changhai is the most suitable place! Not only is there lush water and grass, it is the only way to go from the west to the east, and it is not too far from Yumen Pass. A city could not be more suitable here!”
Ailang held Huang Yueying’s slender hand and smiled: “You are wrong!” Huang Yueying was surprised, after thinking about it, she didn’t know what she said wrong, and said in a puzzled way: “What did the little girl say wrong? Yes, let me ask my husband for advice!”
Ai Lang smiled slightly, squeezed Huang Yueying’s slender hand, and said with a serious face: “How do you say that a hero sees the same thing? It’s obviously a couple who sees the same thing!”
Only then did Huang Yueying react, and her beautiful eyes glanced at Ai Lang with shame and joy.
That night, Ai Lang hosted a grand banquet in the big tent of the military camp to entertain the Usun envoy Sapporo and his party. At the banquet, Sapporo, on behalf of Queen Wusun, presented a thick gift list, a banquet, the guests and the host enjoyed themselves. Early the next morning, Wei Yan returned to Wusun with Sapporo on behalf of Ailang.
The situation in the Western Regions finally calmed down. After several battles, Ailang basically controlled the entire Western Regions, especially the area south of the Tianshan Mountains. It can be said that Ailang was firmly under control. At this time, it is time to consider building a city in Puchanghai. To this end, Ailang sent people to notify countries to assist. Naturally, all countries did not dare to neglect, and with all the money and effort, the west bank of Puchanghai quickly became very busy.
Seeing that everything was on the right track, Ailang felt that he had been away from the Central Plains for too long, so he handed over the affairs of the Western Regions to Mao Jie, leaving 60,000 horses stationed in Puchanghai and other places, leading Huang Yueying and the rest of the soldiers. Embarked on the journey back east. When I went, it was like a squally rain, but now it was a gentle wind and rain when I returned. Everyone was in a relaxed mood, holding a playful attitude, and proceeded unhurriedly.
At this time, in Jizhou Prime Minister’s Mansion. Cao Pi received an urgent report from the west that his Western Regions Changshi Mansion and related personnel have completely withdrawn from the Western Regions and are on the way back, while the Western Regions Protectorate established by Ailang has almost controlled the entire Western Regions. Cao Pi felt very disappointed and couldn’t help sighing. Then he became annoyed: “The most hateful people are the Xianbei and the Huns. I originally wanted them to enter the Western Regions to deal with Lu Bu, but I didn’t expect them to fight in the northern grasslands first! All plans fell short!” Originally, according to Cao Pihe In Sima Yi’s plan, the Xianbei and Huns should have already entered the Western Regions to help Wusun deal with the Qin army. However, people are not as good as the sky, but the Huns and Xianbei people broke out because of a sudden incident. The two sides fought fiercely for the control of the northern grasslands.
