"Your Majesty, I am impeaching the border guard general Ye Hu for ceding our Guishang territory to outsiders without orders. As a guard general, he is responsible for losing the territory!"
"I agree! Your Majesty! Please summon the border guard general Ye Hu to come back quickly to punish him. He dares to abandon his country at will. He has a way to die!"
"His Majesty…"
In the court of Kushan, the recent incident of Yehu abandoning the two hundred miles of land near the Tatar grassland and retreating to the fifteen-city defense line behind it caused a violent conflict in the court.
People of insight can naturally see the profound meaning behind his behavior, and know that if he does not do this, there will be no way to stop the Tatars from entering Kushan from all directions, burning, killing and looting.
And those who had no brains, or were deliberately against Ye Hu and the others, used this incident to impeach Ye Hu and demanded that he be withdrawn from the front line and punished! .
However, the Guishan Emperor Qiu Ye was not that stupid yet, so he naturally understood the correctness of Ye Hu's behavior. Although he was also very angry about giving up his territory, he also understood that it was his fault that he had gone there. Standing in Ye Hu's position, if he wanted to protect more of the interests of the Kushan Empire, he could only do this.
Therefore, he ignored the clamors in the court that wanted to bring him back and punish him. He pretended not to hear them at all. However, he did not stop the matter from fermenting and allowed the court to discuss it.
No one knew what was going on in his mind, but Ye Hu had already established a foothold in Fifteen Cities and established a defense line.
The Kushan Kingdom also immediately passed a resolution to transport a large amount of city defense materials to the fifteen cities.
Guishang has begun to prepare for a protracted war with the forces of Yunzhou County using the fifteen cities as a defense line!
However, due to the lack of war materials in Kushan, after all, they have just recovered from the war, and all kinds of war materials in the country are close to exhaustion, but this battle must be fought, so what should we do?
So Guishuang will look at Lao Zhang and his younger brothers - the countries in the Western Regions!
Brother, I am short of supplies now. As my younger brothers, you have to be cool, right?
Of course, Kushan did not ask them to give material things in a gentle manner, but relied on his past power to ask for them, so his attitude was not very good.
The countries in the Western Region were naturally unhappy, but in the face of threats they could only agree. But at this time, they had other Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts.
It wasn't there at first, but since Ban Chao asked Abulizi to contact other countries and send messages, all countries now know that the seemingly powerful Yuezhi is not the strongest country. He also has his own country to the south. threats.
And this force that could threaten the Dayue clan also sent them a secret message, saying that they would unite with them to resist the Dayue clan. The Yunzhou County Council would support them and contain most of the Dayue clan's troops in the south, allowing them to Don't worry that the Da Yueshi can attack them with all their strength.
At first they thought the secret letter was just a joke. Kushan was so powerful, how could anyone contain most of his troops?
But when they saw that Kuishang began to ask for war supplies from them, they finally understood that Kushan was not the strongest, and there were indeed forces that could fight him head-on!
As a result, the previous joint letter from Yelang's remaining forces resurfaced in their minds.
This seems a bit confusing!
Especially when Abulizi brought Ban Chao and others to Guizi Kingdom and met King Hebin of Guizi!
The arrival of Benchao and others, the technology contained in their complete armors, and the sophistication of their ordinary clothes and things they used, all made the uninformed people in the Guishi Kingdom believe that they must have severed contact with Guishi. People from the ancient Tang Dynasty!
If it is really the huge empire that ruled the Western Regions hundreds of years ago, it is indeed possible that it can fight Kushan head-on!
The traces left by the previous dynasty in the Western Region were so deep that even if Ban Chao and the others only lived in the land where the previous dynasty lived, the appearance in the Western Region gave them endless confidence!
And then, the war that took place in Fifteen Cities made the countries in the Western Regions completely determined to respond to Yunzhou County's rebellion against Guishang!
…
When Zhao Jun arrived at the Tatar army stationed outside the fifteen-city defense line, all the tribal Khans were shocked. They thought about which governor Yunzhou County would send to command the army, but they never thought about it. He actually came in person!
Immediately after receiving the news, the Khans of various tribes who were originally scattered throughout the military camp began to gather at the Chinese army's tent to meet the Khan!
When Zhao Jun walked into the Chinese army's tent under the respectful guidance of Sengge, the tent was so spacious that it could accommodate fifty people. Except for the passage in the middle, it was already so crowded that there was no room to stay. .
In addition to the famous large Tatar tribes and small and medium-sized tribes, even many small tribe leaders with only a few hundred people, not even counted by the Tatars themselves, also came here.
Maybe they only brought a dozen or twenty people this time, but it was undeniable that they were indeed the leaders of their own tribes. According to Zhao Jun's order to summon all tribal leaders, they were indeed qualified to come.
As soon as Zhao Jun came in, the big tent that was noisy and noisy like a vegetable market fell silent for an instant. Even if some people did not recognize Zhao Jun's appearance, they saw that Khan Sengge, the largest tribe present, had to follow this impressive young man. When Song Ren died, they naturally knew Zhao Jun's identity.
Apart from the Heavenly Khan, who else could be treated so respectfully by the Sengge Khan?
After a few breaths of silence, everyone seemed to react at the same time, the next moment!
"We see the sky Khan! May the Eternal Life God bless you forever!"
Khans of all sizes caressed their chests and waists, and saluted Zhao Jun with loud shouts.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Jun felt no emotion at all, and strode forward expressionlessly. During this period, some people kept looking up secretly to look at the Tian Khan, but they were all impressed by Zhao Jun's calm and unhurried demeanor, and his heart became even more intense. He secretly sighed, he is worthy of being the Khan of Heaven, his magnanimity is beyond the comparison of ordinary people.
Zhao Jun ignored everyone's scrutiny and came to the deepest part of the big tent. He sat down directly on a large chair covered with a white wolf's skin and a golden knife. He raised his hands in front of everyone and said softly: "Okay, no need to worry. Be polite!"
"Thank God Khan!"
Everyone bowed together and stood up. At the same time, Seng Ge also returned to the team. Taking his place, he and Ding Hongguang stood at the first place in their respective rows on the left and right sides!
After sitting down, Zhao Jun first glanced at the people below, and then asked: "Who can tell me how many people here today, how far the criticism has reached?"
Immediately, the fat man Seng Ge stood up, cupped his hands and replied:
"Khan Huitian, since I received your summons, all tribes from all over the grassland have sent soldiers. As of yesterday, the number of soldiers in the army has exceeded 500,000!"
Zhao Jun nodded and heard Seng Ge continue: "After receiving the order to attack from Yunzhou County, since there was no unified command, we tribal leaders each led our own people from all directions. Passing through Da Yuezhi's defense line and entering its territory, this period of time was quite effective.
The Dayue clan voluntarily gave up more than 200 miles of territory and withdrew the army to the fifteen-city defense line in the rear.
Due to the obstruction of the city, our footsteps have been blocked here these days and we cannot advance even an inch! "
Seng Ge told Zhao Jun the current general situation in the simplest words. Zhao Jun listened carefully and quickly understood the current general situation.
After nodding and waving his hand to signal him to retreat, Zhao Jun immediately stood up, looked around and said loudly: "It's just attacking the city, you are not good at it, but the Yunzhou Army under my command is the best!
Send me an order to mobilize all the troops early tomorrow morning and march to Songyuan City, the first city in the fifteen-city defense line. After the Yunzhou army breaks the city, I will massacre everyone in Songyuan City without sealing the sword for three days!
If they dare not give me face, then let them pay with their lives! "
"Yes! Your command is the will of Changshengtian!"
Upon hearing this, all the Tatar Khans, big and small, immediately touched their chests and bent down in response!
