Luo Zhang’s first stop was Kucha, because Kucha was closest to Anxi. In previous years, Kucha would offer sacrifices to the Western Turks, and the tributes would be beauties from their own country who could play musical instruments. Beauty.
But this year is better. The Western Turks were killed by Li Jing. There are no more Western Turks and there is no mention of Qiuci.
Although this is no longer the case, what needs to be done still needs to be done.
No, when Luo Zhang was about to leave Kucha, he saw a camel team leaving the capital of Kucha in a mighty manner, taking their king's mission to the capital of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an.
I want to meet Li Shimin, pay tribute to Li Shimin, and rely on him.
If you don't do this, Qiuci will be very flustered.
Although the Tang Dynasty has not launched an attack or threat to them, who knows whether this powerful country that can destroy the Western Turks will also be interested in them.
They just want to live in peace and contentment, commonly known as hanging on!
They don't want to fight and kill. If they are held by a stronger thigh, the effect will be the same for them.
Looking at the Guici people leaving, Luo Zhang shook his head and didn't pay attention. You know, this is a living example. If you fall behind, you will be beaten, and if you fall behind, you will grovel.
After finishing the supplies, Luo Zhang directly led a group of people towards their next stop, Yudian. Luo Zhang was also full of curiosity about this country.
You must know that the emergence of this country has a lot to do with the Han Dynasty's attacks on the Turks.
Because the first king of this country was a general of the Han Dynasty.
At that time, they fought against the Turks, and the Han army was defeated and beaten to pieces. One of them fled to what is now Yudian, where they fought tenaciously against the Turks.
There was no country at the beginning, but it existed in the form of a vassal town. The Han Dynasty also continued to provide help and let it lead the Turks.
As decades passed, the Han Dynasty gradually declined, and the help given to this army gradually disappeared. Until finally, the Han Dynasty fell, and the Jin Dynasty that came to power had long forgotten this army, so that they could only fight alone, and finally He raised the banner and established the Yu Dian Kingdom.
The monarch of Yu Dian State still had a blood relationship with a person from the Tang Dynasty, that is Yuchi Jingde.
The surname of the prince of Yu Dian Kingdom is Yu Dian. As for the name of the general, Luo Zhang did not care about it. This is just a passage recorded in unofficial history.
Now that he was about to enter Yu Dian, Luo Zhang naturally thought about it.
If possible, Luo Zhang would like to explore this period of history to see if it is true.
Of course, Luo Zhang did not tell Sun Simiao and the others about this kind of thing. He would just take a look and ask around when the time comes. There is no need to go too in-depth.
However, if the monarch of Yu Dian is really named Yuchi, and they have not forgotten that they are Han people, they can use it when they fight against the cannibals in the future, and now they can treat it as spying on information.
The team left the city in a mighty manner, and encountered a sky full of yellow sand after walking for a day.
This kind of weather is too common in the Eighteen Kingdoms of the Western Region. After so many days, Luo Zhang has become accustomed to it. His whole body was wrapped up, except for a pair of eyes.
The advantage of this is that you won't be swallowed up by the sand, otherwise you might open your mouth and it will be sand.
Due to a strong sandstorm, Yu Dianguo, which could have been reached in three days, had to walk for five days. Fortunately, Luo Zhang had more supplies, otherwise he would not have been able to survive in this vast desert.
Of course, we also encountered dangers along the way. We were surrounded by wolves at night. Such dangers were called dangers to ordinary people, but to Luo Zhang and the others, they were not a problem at all. Instead, they killed a lot of people, and they all became Luo Zhang. Chapter their midnight snack.
However, the wolf meat is not very tasty and has a sour taste. Fortunately, Luo Zhang’s craftsmanship is good. Sun Simiao, Lao Duwu and others who ate it gave it a thumbs up!
The country of Yu Dian is much taller and rougher than Qiuci. There is a famous soldier standing guard on the city, and there is a famous soldier patrolling inside the city.
Compared with Qiuci, the military here is much stronger and more prosperous. As for the music here, there are no sounds at all. Some are the sounds of drinking from a large bowl and eating large pieces of meat.
The constant shuttle of merchants from south to north is a sign of the prosperity of a country, unlike Qiuci, which only knows how to rely on and play the piano, and does not know how to survive.
