Chapter 777 Affecting Judgment
Pound hurriedly: "Wen Ruo, tell me, what should we do?"
Yu said softly: "Send someone to Liangzhou immediately, tell Wenhe everything about the Western Regions, and ask him to keep an eye on the Xiongnu's movements. If there is any change in the thieves, be sure to send troops to respond!"
Pang De bowed his body and cupped his hands: "If you don't worry about Wen, I will send someone to pass the order!"
report!
Just at this time, a guard came in from outside the palace: "Military division, general, King Loulan outside the mansion, please see me."
Xun Yu waved his hand: "Let him in!"
The guard bowed his body and cupped his hands: "No!"
Not for a while.
King Loulan came to the main hall under the leadership of the guards.
However, behind him, there are still many people following.
Judging from the clothes of these people and the recent influence, Xun Yu immediately understood.
He pretended not to know, and asked tentatively: "Kirzner, these people..."
Without King Loulan's introduction, these people took the initiative to speak up.
"This old man is Tu Kehu, king of Qiemo. Hearing that the envoys of Zhao Tianwang's empire are coming, I come here to pay my respects!"
"I am Li Yuehu, king of Cheshi, and I am here to thank you for helping me defeat the Huns. A little gift is not a respect."
"I am Ruoqiang country..."
"Oh, I am King Qixu, and I am specially here to pay homage to the envoys of Zhao Tianwang's empire. It is not respectful to prepare a small gift."
Xun Yu roughly counted that there were eleven countries.
Moreover, these countries all have one characteristic, they were all blackmailed and suppressed by the Huns.
This time, the first is to thank;
Then the second thing is naturally for the grain and grass stored in the mansion.
Xun knew it well, but pretended not to know it, and he would not withhold it. He didn't take these things to heart, but he just needed a clear attitude from them.
"Come on, give me a seat!"
Xun or call the guards, and prepare more tables.
After all the kings sat down, King Che Shi spoke first: "A few days ago, I heard that my lord led five hundred troops, and defeated the three thousand elite Xiongnu. Such a record is admirable."
King Weixu bowed his body and cupped his hands: "My lord is so smart and cunning, it is unimaginable. You must know that we have at least 2,000 soldiers and horses, but facing the Xiongnu's elite cavalry, we have no strength to resist."
Hu Wang sighed: "If it weren't for our tribe, we were nomads. I'm afraid they would have been extinct in these years. Now all of them are women and children, and there are less than 5,000 people. They are all killed by the Huns!"
At the beginning, the kings flattered and slapped Xun Yu frantically.
He may have expected it a long time ago, so he didn't look too excited, but has been waiting for their follow-up operations.
Flattery.
The kings were indifferent for a while.
And Xun Or was equally indifferent, causing the atmosphere to be awkward for a while.
After pondering for a long time, Che Shiwang cupped his fists and said: "My lord, in fact, I am waiting to come today. I have other things to ask for besides meeting my lord!"
Xun Yu pretended to be surprised, and said "Oh", "I don't know what's the matter, everyone?"
King Che Shi didn't hide anymore, and said directly: "I heard that your lord has seized the food and grass of the Xiongnu. We deducted all the food and grass from the people bit by bit. Now that there is no food, the people of our country are really..."
All the kings complained incessantly, each of them felt like a dead mother, unable to live without food.
Xun Yu smiled lightly: "You can return these grains to you, but...
Xun may have said it implicitly, but the people here are not fools, they don't need to clarify, they will understand.
Che Shi Wang took a deep breath and said solemnly: "My lord, to be honest, not to mention me and other small countries with less than 10,000 soldiers, even the entire Western Regions are nothing in the eyes of the Zhao Tianwang Empire."
"The territory of the Zhaotian Empire is the sum of the ten Western Regions. I'm afraid it can't be matched. You are rich and powerful, and the Western Regions said to give up, so they gave up without any scruples. But we are different. This is the home we depend on for survival. "
Che Shiwang was obviously hesitant when he said it, and in Gou Hu's opinion, he also took a lot of courage: "I just said in case, in case Zhao Tianwang Empire will be like the previous big man, leave as soon as you say, without any doubt. Don't worry about me waiting, so what should I do?"
The kings immediately agreed!
"Yes, our country is relatively small, with less than 5,000 troops, and we can't resist the Huns cavalry charge at all. If we are left behind, the Huns will destroy us directly."
"This is what I'm most worried about. The Huns come and go like the wind, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses dominate the country at every turn. We are really hard to resist. If it weren't for this, how could I have been able to swallow my anger after waiting for so many years?"
"I think back when the big man was strong and powerful, we were willing to bow our heads and surrender. With the help of the big man Lu, the people can at least have a good life, but if you leave, the Huns will intensify their exploitation!"
There were endless cries of suffering.
For the countries in the Western Regions, they are the victims of the war, and they can only be cut as leeks.
The Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu had a war that lasted for three hundred years. No matter what the reason was, the countries in the Western Regions were like weeds on the wall, and they developed the habit of relying on the strong.
But every sudden change in the situation will cause a new round of oppression!
Although the big Han is more benevolent than the Xiongnu, and is better for the countries in the Western Regions, but the long-standing conflicts between the two sides will eventually have to be borne by these small countries.
And they simply can't afford it!
Even Kucha, a powerful country in the Western Regions, was once a slave to the Huns. Copper, iron, and coal are abundant here. To the Huns, Kucha was nothing more than their weapons factory.
They will set up the Boy Servant Duwei's Mansion, and use this ruling institution exclusively for slaves to firmly control the countries in the Western Regions. In other words, the people of the Western Regions under the rule of the Huns are not treated as human beings.
"I understand what you mean!"
He Yu took a deep breath, and said in an extremely solemn tone: "However, Zhao Tianwang's empire is different from that of the Great Han. The Great Han has gone through more than four hundred years, and the internal chaos has already been exhausted before it perishes.
"The Zhaotian Empire is not the case! It is a new dynasty, and it is full of vitality. Now I have been ordered by my lord to return to the Western Regions to take root here. For a hundred years or a thousand years, as long as the Zhao Tianwang Empire is here, the Western Regions Protectorate will be there!"
"You can rest assured on this point!" Xun said definitely and definitely.
The kings still hesitated. After all, this kind of thing didn't happen once or twice. If the worries of the kings of the Western Regions could be dispelled by just talking, then the world would no longer have to fight, and they could just quarrel.
"Ling Ming." Xun Yu greeted.
"Yes!" Pound replied.
"Give them back the food later." Xun Yu said softly.
Pang De was surprised: "Military division, we just leave food like this..."
