"After this battle between the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Xiqiang, there is no longer anything to worry about. The northern part of our Han Dynasty has been completely pacified, but the Western Region is still uneasy!" Liu Cong put down the information and shook his head.
"My lord is right, the Western Region is too important to us now!"
During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, although Zhang Qian sent an envoy to the Western Regions and opened up the road to trade, the tax revenue of the Han Dynasty mainly relied on grain, and commerce was only a small part. The Silk Road did not seem to be very important.
But things are different now. Many officials have discovered the importance of commerce. It is precisely because of commerce that the Han Dynasty prospered and became rich. Even Cao Cao, who occupied the hinterland of the Central Plains, and Sun Quan, who occupied the important land in the south, could not compete with the Han Dynasty. compared to. The big man can be said to be extremely rich!
There are dozens of countries in the Western Region. They are vast in area and very far from the hinterland of the Han Dynasty. It is not easy to conquer them.
"The Silk Road is very important to us. Without conquering the Western Regions, this trade route cannot be guaranteed. Today, four small countries are rebelling against our big Han. If we just let it go, they will come and leave as they please from now on. Let there be no peace in Liangzhou!"
"My lord, you want to continue to conquer the Western Regions?" Fazheng asked.
"There are dozens of countries in the Western Region, some of which are thousands of miles away from us. It is not the best idea to conquer them one by one. We must kill one to serve as a warning to others!"
"My lord, do you want to conquer the four kingdoms of Loulan, Qiuci, Wusun and Khotan?"
"That's right, anyone who offends our big man will be punished no matter how far away!" Liu Cong's voice was sonorous and powerful, full of confidence, which made Fazheng, Shi A, and even Cai Yan feel excited!
"Okay, my lord has this ambition, my subordinates will convey my lord's orders to Kong Ming and Zhengfang!"
Liu Cong took out his pen and quickly wrote down Wang Changling¡¯s poem Qijue on the paper.
"Send this poem too, Kong Ming will naturally know what to do!"
Fazheng and Cai Yan watched at the same time.
"The long clouds in Qinghai darken the snow-capped mountains, and the lonely city looks into the Yumen Pass in the distance. The yellow sand wears golden armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never return it if it is not broken!"
¡°My lord, what a poem, it¡¯s so heart-wrenching to read!¡± Fazheng was very excited.
"The prince's talents are unparalleled by anyone in the contemporary era. Even Qu Yuan is among the best!" Cai Yan said sincerely in admiration.
"My ambition is to read all the books in the world, to see all the beautiful mountains and rivers of the Han Dynasty, to go to a waterless place, to sit and watch the clouds rise, and finally to be like your father, to be a great Confucian, to preach, teach, and explain to students. Confusion, let my Han culture prosper. What a pity that in troubled times, I have to carry a three-foot sword to kill all the evil in the world?"
Today's Liu Cong has also learned to show off in front of the ancients, and he does so without blushing or heartbeat.
But just this moment made Cai Yan admire him again. When he walked to the waterless place and sat watching the clouds rise, he wrote this sentence that other so-called great scholars might not be able to write out! I¡¯m afraid that¡¯s what it¡¯s like to be a genius!
After the Battle of Xiping City, Liu Cong was ready to return to Luoyang. As for the subsequent conquest of Loulan and other four small countries in the Western Region, he did not need to worry at all. Even Li Yan and Zhuge Liang were a bit wasteful there, and it was enough for Ma Chao and Zhao Yun to lead a team of soldiers and horses.
Things in Beidi County have also settled down, and the potato planting in charge of Li Sanhuai, the captain of Diannong School, has also made progress. Liu Cong asked Huangfuhong to build some waterwheels and build some canals, preparing to divert the water from Wuding River to some places. fields for irrigation. Although potatoes are very drought-tolerant, Northland County is too short of rain. If it cannot solve the water problem, it will not be able to complete its afforestation plan, and the desert will become more and more serious.
The affairs of the Jingyuan Army were handed over to Fazheng and Wang Ping. Liu Cong was also very relieved. Fazheng was a qualified counselor. In the past history, if Zhuge Liang had not been shrouded in light, Fazheng would have left more reputation. .
After everything was arranged, Liu Cong left Jingbian and headed south with Cai Yan, Shi A, and three thousand guards.
Yecheng.
"Cao Cao's condition goes up and down. When he gets better, he seems to be back to the past, full of confidence. But if it gets worse and you have a splitting headache, it seems that your end is approaching.
"My lord, the battle report from Xiliang has arrived!"
In the back garden of the Wei Palace, Jia Xu took out a letter of intelligence and gave it to Cao Cao.
"Haven't they been confronting each other? Have they started a war?" Cao Cao was a little surprised, "Hasn't this Bu Dugen learned Liu Bao's lesson? Forcibly attacking the city will not have any effect!"
"My lord, the battle is over. The victory will be determined in one battle!" Jia Xu shook his head and said.
"What, the battle is over and the outcome is determined in one battle, so fast?" Cao Cao was shocked after hearing Jia Xu's words.
The battle of Guandu between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao lasted for a full year before the winner was determined. There were hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses on both sides outside Xiping City. If the victory was to be decided in one battle, what kind of ancient battle would it be? ? There was no news a few days ago, but now the winner has been decided. How can it not be surprising?
Cao Cao opened the information and read it carefully, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"In a decisive battle between infantry and cavalry, the numbers are not superior. How can such a result be achieved with just one formation? Wenhe, this"
"Lord, this seems incredible, but it is true!" Jia Xu couldn't explain it. When he saw this information, he didn't believe it the first time. But he understood that this was a fact. In such a battle, it is impossible for the scouts to send false or wrong information.
"What formation are they using?"
"I heard it's called the Eight Formations, and it was created by Zhuge Liang!"
"Eight formation diagramsZhuge Liang" Cao Cao put down the information, stood up, and looked at the rockery and stream in the back garden, "There was once a rumor that if one of them wins one of them, he will win the world. Wolong followed him back then. Liu Bei, Feng Chu voted for Liu Cong, but Liu Bei always lost. I thought the rumors were false, but I didn¡¯t expect that Wo Long is indeed a genius in the world!"
"Although Wolong's talents are high, they are not without flaws. Throughout his marches and battles, he used more regular soldiers and less tricks. It is only the courage of the Han army generals and the strength of the Han army soldiers that are the real danger. Now, Ma Chao has also surrendered to Liu Cong, making Liu Cong even more powerful!"
"Liu Cong" Cao Cao muttered silently in his heart, "It is clear that Zuo of Han Dynasty has declined, why would Liu Jingsheng give birth to such a Qilin son? If this son had been born a few years earlier, I would have done what Xu Zijiang said and became the ruler of the world. A capable minister, why do you need to be a traitor in this troubled world?"
"My lord, the Han army has found a way to transmit intelligence! It's incredible!"
"In what way?"
"Flying pigeons deliver messages!"
"A flying pigeon delivers a message?" Cao Cao was confused, "What is a flying pigeon delivering a message?"
¡°Just tie the information to the pigeon¡¯s leg and let the pigeon fly back!¡±
"Thisthis" Cao Cao widened his eyes, "How is this possible? Pigeon, won't it fly somewhere else?" (Remember this website's website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
