Chapter 1040: Yuan Tan and Liu Bei Arrive in the Western Regions
The capital of the country, Yecheng.
In the splendid palace hall.
Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty sat on the three-foot-high dragon platform, and Yuan Shao, the king of Tang Dynasty, sat a little below.
Underneath, civil and military officials sat upright, and the atmosphere was grand and solemn.
Everyone's eyes looked outside the hall.
Jia Xu stood there with one hand behind his back and a scroll in the other.
This scroll is incredible, with golden dragon heads inlaid on both sides of the green jade tube.
Speaking of which, Jia Xu is very low-key. After all, low-key depends on the situation. Now that he is here on behalf of Yuan Tan, he is extremely proud at the moment.
inside the hall.
Tang Wang Yuan Shao's dragon nose can spit out fire, and he should be happy that Shu has been defeated. However, the Kingdom of Shu was assigned to Yuan Tan, and Yongliang also entered Yuan Tan's control.
The Kingdom of Shu compensated Yuan Tan at that time, and Yong Liang robbed him from his father and his great king. His eldest son also let go, this is not called robbery, this is called Ming Na.
I really miss spanking his ass as a kid.
Yuan Shang was also in a bad mood. In private, people called Yuan Tan the King of Shu, but he thought he could be called the King of Qin. After all, his elder brother's control area was the territory of the Qin State back then.
Fortunately, under the operation of Sima Yi, Jingzhou was brought back.
Jingzhou's territory is not small, but it is a war zone next to Jiangdong.
Sima Yi is very cautious about the future at the moment. He is now a soldier who has studied Yuan Tan day and night. He knows that if he wants to usurp the throne, it is impossible to lie down and win. He has to keep learning and researching.
After research, it was found that Yuan Tan's influence was too great.
In the beginning, Yuan Tan and his father Yuan Shao can be said to have started from Nanpi together.
In the battle of Gongsun Zan, Yuan Tan tried his best to turn the tide and killed the Hun King. At this time, it has a deep influence in Jizhou, Youzhou, and even the grasslands.
Later, Yuan Tan invaded Qingzhou and conquered the entire Confucianism with a three-character scripture in the Confucian Temple. Confucianism, the influence of Qingzhou will be there.
Xuzhou is the territory of the father-in-law. Many people say that Lu Bu is very leisurely now. Whoever dares to say that he is a slave of the three surnames will wait to become the head of the country in the future.
Then came the Central Plains War,
Yuzhou, Gunzhou, and Sili. Sima Yi covered his face with one hand, he lost it.
If Yuan Shao was not a father or a king, he would not be able to suppress Yuan Tan at all.
Fortunately, ancient times paid attention to these things, so Yuan Tan didn't dare to do anything clearly, but he kept making small moves behind his back, and now Yongliang and Xichuan are directly under the jurisdiction of Xichuan.
Sima Yi saw that Yuan Shao was very angry now, but he must not express it at this moment, it was too disappointing.
With a lot of accumulation, I believe that the internal battle to the death is not far away.
Sima Yi came out, "Your Majesty?"
Yuan Shao: "...."
Sima Yi took the initiative and said: "Your Majesty has a will, and I want to announce that Jia Xu, the military commander of Shence, will have an audience."
Jia Xu has no official position and is white.
But when you go to the hall, who dares to underestimate it?
The people on Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang's side scolded the old fox even more. From Dong Zhuo's meeting to now, he is the one who has lived the most comfortable life.
Jia Xu is very excited, he has changed many masters in the past, but in fact he doesn't want to change at all. Fortunately, I met the eldest son, the meal ticket for a lifetime.
later.
Jia Xu opened the scroll and read the report.
Yuan Tan captured the Kingdom of Shu, and Liu Zhang and others all surrendered.
Yuan Shao, Yuan Shang, Sima Yi and others: "..."
Yuan Tan wiped out the evil Ugo tribe of the Southern Man, and won the support of the Southern Man.
Yuan Shao and others: "...."
Yuan Tan and Zhu Rong got married and established the Protectorate in Nanman.
Yuan Shao and others: "!!!"
Everyone was shocked by the news unexpectedly. In other words, the large territory of Nanban belongs to the Eldest Young Master.
The one named Zhu Rong must be very good-looking, after all, the eldest son has always been a gentleman when it comes to vulgar fans.
But there are also different opinions, thinking that Yuan Tan is shameless and married Zhu Rong in order to gain greater influence and control the Nanman area. The Nanman are all savages, and they will die in a fight. The integration of this force should not be underestimated.
At that time, the wedding between Yuan Tan and Zhu Rong was very grand, completely following the ancient rituals of the Zhu Rong tribe.
Meng Huo and Zhu Xiaomei also got married at the same time.
Everyone is happy.
At the invitation of the various tribes of the Nanman, Yuan Tan sent 3,000 Shence troops to establish the Nanman Protectorate.
Maintain peace in Nanban and prohibit wars. This is in the interests of most tribes, so the tribes of the Nanman are willing to submit to Yuan Tan.
Through Zhurong, the oldest tribe.
Yuan Tan unified the Southern Man.
...
At the same time outside Yumen Pass.
Cao Cao was stationed in the yellow sand, and there was no need to blink when the strong wind came, because he was wearing the sunglasses of a future soldier, very powerful and domineering.
In the yellow sand, a team came, the leader was riding a white horse, also wearing a pair of sunglasses.
Suddenly, Cao Cao took off his sunglasses, his eyes were full of memories of the past, "Xiansi..."
"Brother Meng De."
"Ahahahaha, brother." Cao Cao still likes to laugh.
The two dismounted, ran towards each other, and gave a warm hug. They didn't think of big shots at all, but they were friends they hadn't seen for many years.
Many civilian caravans around, as well as soldiers who have not experienced some things, watched this scene in shock.
It is rumored that the two have a close relationship, which is by no means a lie.
Yuan Tan came here under the protection of five hundred magical tiger guards.
Seeing that Cao Cao trusted him, he brought so few people with him, and was very pleased.
In fact, he didn't bring anyone else.
The combined size of the troops stationed in the border areas of both sides did not exceed 1,000 people.
For Yuan Tan and Cao Cao, Dawan from Liangzhou to Cao Cao belonged to the hinterland safety zone, and their armies were all on the east-west border.
In other words, Cao Cao's army was all guarding the Guishuang Empire in the west, and it had no defense against Yuan Tan.
The same is true for Yuan Tan.
The two exchanged arms.
Cao Cao took Yuan Tan's hand, "Let's go, let's go to Yumen City on my side. It's not easy to meet each other, so we have a good talk. Besides, Brother Wei has prepared many good programs for you." After finishing speaking, he gave a You know the eyes.
We have been separated for many years, but there is no sense of strangeness.
Cao Cao invited Yuan Tan to a small town not far away, which was also an outpost established by Cao Cao. Of course, the outpost battle in this small city is not for military purposes, but as a transit point for caravans from both sides, a place to rest halfway.
Yuan Tan and Cao Cao had just left.
The tranquility of the past has been restored here.
Camels, caravans, coming and going.
After a while, there was another gust of wind and sand.
In the strong wind, caravans and travelers chose to stop advancing.
And the three figures, hunched forward against the wind, leaned on simple wooden sticks, their tattered clothes and messy long hair fluttered in the wind, but they gave people a kind of unyielding.
Two of them were also carrying a simple stretcher with a dying person lying on it.
After the leader saw the caravan in the wind and sand, he was overjoyed, "Second brother and third brother, we...we have finally arrived."
If all goes well, Cao Cao, the king of the Western Regions, can be encouraged to counterattack the Central Plains. At that time, he can also reconvene people loyal to the Han Dynasty and make a comeback.
It’s like what our ancestors sang in their dreams: this little pain in the wind and rain is nothing, don’t be afraid to wipe away your tears, at least the big man still has dreams.
The big man has died for four hundred years without being stiff, and there are still some people who still end up in the Han Dynasty. This is his last chance.
