The two envoys never imagined that the entire Jingjue Kingdom would move to Da Qin! ?
This is indeed unimaginable for a place where there is no war.
Just like the Yuezhi who had just been destroyed. If several countries hadn't attacked together, they would have been able to fight. As long as they still had breath, they would have fought tooth and nail to defend their homeland.
Now that they are forced to leave their homeland, it is still unclear when they will be able to return to their country. And when the Huns continue to attack Wusun in the west, the Yuezhi may be forced to move westward.
The whole Yiqu clan was not like this. If he hadn't longed for a stable home, how could Yu Tu have led the whole clan to the Qin Kingdom to fight for their lives?
At present, no country is attacking Jingjue. Why would the queen give up on this land that has survived for thousands of years?
Wu Chan knew that they were puzzled, so he briefly explained the gradual expansion of the Sand Millstone.
After hearing this, Wizard Kukan nodded to express his understanding, and then translated Wu Chan's words to Mod.
Merde exclaimed: "Oh my god, how terrible is that desert? Will it spread to Persia one day?"
Kukanqi thought to himself: I'm not afraid yet. If you want to swallow us, you have to swallow our Dawan first. You are afraid of a ball.
But of course I couldn't say this out loud.
Ying Zheng said: "The desert is certainly terrifying, but the amount of sand is limited, and it cannot cover the entire world. Now it seems that it cannot be separated from the scope of the Western Regions."
The two envoys heard that it made sense, and then they felt relieved.
Mod said: "When it comes to deserts that can rotate and flow, I know that in the southwest of Persia, close to the sea, there is also a desert that can expand and flow."
Ying Zheng became interested when he heard this, so he asked: "There is also a mobile desert? What does it look like?"
"I haven't been there either." Mod shook his head and said, "That is the territory of the Arabs. We have always had conflicts with them, but I heard that the desert there is also very big, and it seems to be bigger than the one here. And it is gradually spreading, and it is almost reaching the seaside.”
"Seaside?" Ying Zheng asked again, "What kind of sea is that?"
"The Persian Gulf," Mod replied, "is the ocean under our jurisdiction in Persia, located to the south of Persia."
"Is there a map?"
It is somewhat diplomatically awkward for envoys to ask for maps of other countries. After all, a map of the entire country has very important strategic significance.
Morde hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll have someone bring the map. Along the way, I also had someone draw the route."
Ying Zheng understood that if he wanted to carry out long-term business cooperation, he must have a detailed road map, and the capitals that this route passed through also needed to be recorded and drawn on the road map.
Come and try it quickly. 】
Not long after, Merd's men brought a map of Persia and spread it out on the table.
A somewhat brief map was presented in front of Ying Zheng and Wu Chan. It was obvious that Moder must have a condensed version, but they were concerned about the mobile desert, and the map in front of them was enough.
Mered pointed at the map and introduced: "This is our current land in Persia, and the middle place is where the royal palace is. There is a sea in the north, which we call the North Sea, and there is also a sea in the south, which is the Persian Gulf I just mentioned."
Ying Zheng thought: There are oceans in the north and south. It is really a good place. I think it would be nice to have even one county in Daqin that is close to the ocean.
Mode pointed to the west side of Persia on the map and said: "To the west of us is the territory of the Arabs. Far further south from them is the location of the desert, which is at the other end of the Persian Gulf. We I just said that it has almost reached the seaside, which refers to the southern coast of the Persian Gulf."
"Fortunately, there is a sea in the middle. Otherwise, Persia would not be in trouble if it swept over." Ying Zheng frowned at the location pointed out by Mered on the map, thought quickly in his mind, and then asked: "This desert, How far is it from the Mediterranean Sea?"
"The Mediterranean Sea?" Moder said in surprise, "I didn't expect you knew that place."
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "I've only heard about it, but I've never been there."
Mod said: "I haven't been there either, but I know that many tribes of Arabs are concentrated on the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea. Calculating, there is still some distance from this desert."
Although there is a distance, it is still within the jurisdiction of the Arabs, so it is not far away even if you think about it.
Ying Zheng thought about what Taotie said to him...
The Qiang-Tibet Plateau rises from the sea, forming the highest plateau and mountains in the world, and then forms a mobile desert spreading outward in the north.
However, the Western civilization was sunk deep into the earth, and the sea crazily poured into it, swallowing everything up. Then, there was a mobile desert to the east of the Mediterranean Sea!
Who can believe that this is a coincidence?
The reason must be, as Taotie said, the map of mountains and seas has not been put together completely. Although the natural source power is temporarily stable, some energy systems are still chaotic, which has caused the two mobile deserts to spread outward.
What Ying Zheng didn't know at this time was that there was a larger desert on the south coast of the Mediterranean Sea, but it just didn't flow.
Although he was shocked in his heart, Ying Zheng looked relaxed on the surface. He said to Mod, "Can the sea really block the desert? What if the sand blows from the sky?"
"This..." Merde never thought about the flowing desert. After all, there were Arab tribes and the sea in between, so it was none of his business.
It wasn't until he heard that Jingjue was migrating en masse that he realized the horror of the desert.
Wu Chan smiled and joked: "In my opinion, as long as there is not much wind, the sand cannot be blown over. If the desert is like ours, it will swallow up all the Arab tribes in the future, then the Arabs will have no home." Ke Gui, I can’t grab your territory.”
It was originally a joke, but it made Merde break out in cold sweat.
This is really not alarmist, and it is extremely possible!
I think Jingjue has the protection of the Qin Dynasty, so there is no need to mobilize troops to seize the territory of other countries in the Western Regions, but who will protect the Arabs?
Besides, the tribes there are not unified to begin with. If they lose their homeland, who knows where they will fight?
Seeing that Mod was in trouble, Ying Zheng comforted him and said, "Prince Mod, don't worry too much. I have some ways to stop the spread of the desert, but it may take some time."
Only then did Maud calm down: "I hope so."
Kukanqi said from the side: "Since the Jingjue are going to migrate en masse, then we won't have a transfer station for future trade. What should we do?"
Ying Zheng said: "I will probably give the transfer rights here to Loulan, including this Jingjue Royal City, and I will probably give it to him as well."
Regarding the ownership of Jingjue City, he and Wu Chan have discussed it in the past few days and sold it to Loulan at a reasonable price.
No matter when the desert comes, after all, this place can still be used for decades.
Moder shook his head: "Loulan and Dawan are not familiar with each other, so I, Persia, can't believe it easily. The best way is for us to follow you to Daqin together."
Ying Zheng knew in his heart that even if Jing never moved away, Mo De would definitely follow him back to Daqin this time.
Firstly, it is to see with one's own eyes the prosperity of the ancient Chinese country, and secondly, it is to purchase goods suitable for Persia in person without being charged the price difference by middlemen.
"The road to Da Qin is extremely long, and I'm afraid I'll offend the prince." Ying Zheng said with a persuasive look, "Besides, we have to wait until the weather warms up before we can set off. I've already brought some goods, why don't we just stay here Deal, Prince Murd takes it back to Persia."
Moder refused to give up and insisted: "The goods brought by King Qin must be of high quality, but the quantity is limited. As for the long distance, it is not much further than here to Persia. I think we will wait for the weather to warm up and accompany you." Let’s go to Daqin.”
Ying Zheng said with some reluctance: "Okay, in a few days it will be an important festival in our Daqin. It is New Year's Eve and the New Year. Let's lively and lively together in Jingjue, which can be regarded as saying goodbye to this big city. A few days ago We have just worked together to annihilate the Yuezhi, so the safety along the way has been guaranteed."
"You..." Kukanchi said in shock, "You wiped out the Yueshi?"
For the past month, he had been on the road with Merde, and naturally he didn't get any information.
"What, you're surprised?" Wu Chan said with a proud smile.
"I'm a little surprised." Kukanqi said, "The Yuezhi's national strength is quite good. A few years ago, King Kushan conquered five tribes and unified the Yuezhi. It was a time when morale was at its peak."
Ying Zheng sighed softly: "It is indeed a difficult opponent to deal with."
Immediately, he roughly told how the Yuezhi surrounded and pursued him and the King of Xiqiang, how he united with the Xiongnu generals to attack Jiayuguan, and how they dealt with the armies of several countries in the Gobi.
Kukanqi and Moder were both stunned when they heard this, thinking in their hearts: This man in front of them is indeed not easy to mess with!
Coming to such a far place, with just such a pass under my control, tens of thousands of soldiers and generals, yet they were not defeated? !
Not only was the city gate not broken, but it also attracted warriors from the two countries to come to the rescue. The armies of the four countries hunted and surrounded the King of Kushan.
This King of Kushan simply stole a chicken and lost more than a handful of rice, and even the chicken coop was lost.
Fortunately, I came to him to do business. If I had other thoughts, I wouldn't be able to go back alive.
"Have all the harem of King Kushan gone to Wusun?" Mod asked.
Ying Zheng nodded: "Touman Shanyu has already led the army to conquer. I sent people to inquire a few days ago. I think there should be a battle report soon."
Kukanqi was surprised: "The Huns are so ferocious?! King Qin and we are friends. They won't finish defeating Wusun and continue to attack me, Dawan, to the west, right?"
Regarding this issue, Ying Zheng really had no idea.
When he was in Yinshan, he gave the black fox to Touman and told Touman that it was a bloody horse carefully cultivated by the Dawan royal family. It traveled thousands of miles a day and was priceless.
If Touman really captured Wusun this time, it would be equivalent to directly bordering Dawan. Wouldn't Touman, who loves horses so much, snatch the bloody BMW?
It is estimated that Touman himself would not believe it.
"The Xiongnu attacked Wusun with great reluctance, and Wusun was not an ordinary person." Ying Zheng said with relief, "It's possible that he didn't get any advantage and went back directly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yong asked for a performance outside the door, and Wusun came with the battle report.
What a coincidence, whatever is said comes to pass.
"Your Majesty, there is information from the detective horse." Zhang Yong came in and said with cupped hands, "Touman Chanyu of the Xiongnu has defeated Wusun after a fierce battle and killed all the Wusun royal family. Now Wusun has destroyed the country."
Ying Zheng: "..."
This slap in the face was a little too fast.
"Where is the Yuezhi royal family?" he asked.
Zhang Yong said: "The Yuezhi royal family took the Yuezhi and Wusun remnant troops to occupy the western area of Wusun. It suddenly snowed heavily there. The Xiongnu could no longer move forward and had already withdrawn."
Kukanchi breathed a sigh of relief.
What kind of situation is this? At least the Yueshi still have a royal family, but Wusun is actually worse than them.
It seemed that Yuezhi could replace Wusun and re-establish a political power, but in the end, Wusun became the scapegoat.
