The sun sets in the west.
In the main hall, everyone watched.
There was a slight flash of strange color in the depths of Mu Heche's eyes, and he said: "I have traveled thousands of miles to come to Chang'an, which shows my sincerity. Is this how the champion treats me?"
"If I don't follow the wishes of the Marquis of Han, are you going to kill me in public?"
Mu Heche slowly walked out from behind the seat, with a little sadness and anger on his face, and raised his voice:
"The Xiongnu oppressed us and other people in the Western Regions in the past and committed countless evil deeds. I originally thought that the Han Dynasty would expel the Xiongnu and would cooperate with our countries in the Western Regions, and everything would be fine. Therefore, on the order of the Lord of the Country, I came to Chang'an to pay homage to the Emperor of the Han people.
Unexpectedly, the Han Dynasty was also like this, relying on strength to suppress the countries in the Western Regions, compared to the Xiongnu... let's not say it. "
Mu Heche dared to stand up, not to confront Huo Qubing head-on.
He was sure that Han wanted to conquer the Western Regions, and Huo Qubing would never do anything drastic in front of so many envoys and rulers from the Western Regions.
Otherwise, everyone in the Western Regions would be in danger, which would increase many variables, which would be inconsistent with the Han Dynasty's purpose of conquering the Western Regions.
The most important thing is that Muheche has other plans to intensify the conflict between Han Dynasty and other countries in the Western Regions and mess up the matter, which is also beneficial to Yanqi.
Mu Heche said with an angry expression: "Huo Hou asked me to say it again, so I will say it again. I hope Huo Hou will not forget, where is the Yanqi Kingdom behind us?
If you push us into a hurry, what's wrong with me, Yanqi and Wusun, uniting to protect themselves?
If Marquis Huo wants to kill me, please take action. "
Mu Heche looked like he was willing to die generously. When he saw Huo Qubing looking over with a cold look and a sneer on his face, he did not do anything in public after all. He sneered secretly: "If there is nothing else, there is a banquet at my house this time, so I won't attend."
Many envoys and heads of state from various countries in the Western Region were looking at the wooden chariot with different expressions.
The Han Dynasty wanted to annex the Western Regions, which was the last thing they wanted to see for the powerful elites in the countries in the Western Regions.
If not forced by the situation, which of these Western Region dignitaries would be willing to come to Chang'an?
Mu Heche thought to himself that he had an insight into the mentality of envoys from various countries, and this Han Marquis obviously did not understand the plans of the envoys from various countries. Using weapons rashly would only be counterproductive... Mu Heche's thoughts fluctuated and he stepped out of the palace.
Behind the low seat on the side, Zhou Chang frowned.
He had known that relying solely on force to suppress the situation would push things to a worse stage.
He asked Dong Zhongshu next to him in a low voice: "Do you need me to have someone go and comfort Envoy Yanqi?"
The old god Dong Zhongshu said: "There is no hurry."
As Mu Heche walked out, he winked.
Asher and Che Shi, the two leaders of the two kingdoms, also got up and planned to advance and retreat together and leave together with Mu He Che.
At this time, Xiao Qisheng, the close military commander of the Hou Mansion, came in from outside and happened to stand in front of the wooden car.
"What, do you want to use force?" Mu Heche stopped and asked.
Xiao Qisheng ignored him and said, "Master Marquis, I have brought all the things and people here."
Behind him were several soldiers, who unfolded a cowhide map in front of everyone.
That map is the topographic distribution map of the countries in the Western Region.
There are several long lines marked on it, which are dazzlingly scarlet, pointing from Yumen, the northwest border of Han Dynasty, to different countries in the Western Regions.
When everyone saw the map, even if they didn't understand military matters, they could still tell that the red line on the map was the marching route.
Roshna said in shock: "Huo Hou wants to use troops against the Western Regions?"
Huo Qubing: "It's not necessary to use it. There are already soldiers and horses out of camp. The fastest two groups will have the result of fighting tonight."
Mu Heche was about to leave, but after hearing this, he turned around and said:
"Many countries from our Western Regions came to Han, but discussions with you failed. So the Han people secretly sent troops to our Western Regions.
It can be seen that you have no real intention of peace talks, but just want to use military force to force us to obey. "
Huo Qubing said: "You are not within the scope of the peace talks. The target of my troops' attack is you, Yanqi Kingdom."
Mu Heche's expression changed slightly:
"You want to rely on raising troops to make me, Yan Qi, surrender, but it's absolutely impossible!"
Huo Qubing said: "When the Xiongnu controlled the Western Regions, Yanqi and Wusun were secretly working together to get both sides.
This time the Xiongnu were defeated by our Han army, and envoys from various countries visited Chang'an. Wusun wanted to know the progress of my Han Dynasty's negotiations with other countries, so he asked you to secretly cause trouble and undermine the collegiality. "
Everyone in the hall was shocked.
Yanqi and Wusun had secretly formed an alliance and deliberately sabotaged this meeting between Han and the Western Regions?
If what Huo Qubing said is true, then there is a reasonable explanation for what Mu Heche did just now.
He didn't want the collegial meeting to succeed at all, and secretly had ulterior motives.
As for Che Shiqianguo, Houguo, and Wu Tanzi, they are the targets of his use to protect his identity.
After Huo Qubing finished speaking, the two heads of state, Wu Tan Zi and Che Shi, also looked at Mu He Che suspiciously.
"You make random accusations that Yanqi and Wusun are in love. Who can believe it?" Muheche was furious.
Huo Qubing said: "Take him down!"
Mu Heche shouted: "Why do you want to take me? I came here to negotiate about joining the Han Dynasty. Is this how the Han people treat envoys from the Western Regions?"
Xiao Qisheng turned his hand and hit Mu Heche on the shoulder, forcing him to kneel on the ground.
Two soldiers came up and controlled him.
"Come in!"
Xiao Qisheng shouted loudly.
Two young men walked in from outside the temple side by side.
The young man on the left is slightly taller, with a ruddy complexion, small eyes, a straight body, and a kind of toughness.
The other young man was thinner, about twenty-six or seventeen years old, with lively and narrow eyes.
The tall young man held in his hand an old man whose hands were bound and who was serving in the Western Region.
Mu Heche was originally struggling extremely fiercely, but when he saw the old man, his expression changed, revealing unconcealable horror.
By this time, everyone could see that Huo Qubing had already made preparations and arrangements for the opportunity of the banquet and the gathering of all the families.
The two young men held the old man in their hands and came to Huo Qubing.
The short young man looked at the wooden cart and saluted Huo Qubing: "Master Hou, Ju Duo, Wusun's envoy to Yanqi, has been escorted over.
This Juduo's status in Wusun is not low, and there should be many people in the Western Regions who know him. "
When the young man opened his mouth, he spoke in Hun language.
Roshna and the Lord of Kucha looked at each other with surprised expressions.
Qiuci was close to Wusun and Yanqi, so they knew Ju Duo in the young man's hand.
Ju Duo is a Qian Chang of Wusun, and his identity is confirmed.
The situation gradually became clear, and Wusun and Yanqi were secretly connected as Huo Qubing said.
What's shocking is that Huo Qubing was well prepared and was able to capture Ju Duo from Wusun.
He wanted to deal with Wusun and Yanqi, but he was afraid that he would have targeted these two families as early as when he defeated the Huns. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to catch Ju Duo in such a timely manner. Just sending him over such a long distance would have taken a long time.
He captured Ju Duo and took him to Chang'an, thousands of miles away. Of course, it was not as simple as testifying against Muhe Che.
But to show it to the people of the Western Regions, let them know that Wusun and Yanqi were secretly uniting to destroy the collegial meeting between Han and the Western Regions.
Seeing Wusun envoy Ju Duo, Mu Heche also realized that Huo Qubing had made arrangements for a long time and had already seen through his identity.
His face finally revealed the horror that he couldn't hide.
"you you……"
"You want to ask why the Marquis knows that Yanqi and Wusun have a secret connection?"
The tall young man who was holding Ju Duo said, "You think my Hunxie tribe is a fool.
The Western Xiongnu have been in charge of your kingdoms in the Western Regions for many years, and Yanqi and Wusun communicated secretly. Will my Hunxie tribe not be aware of it? "
These two young men were Gao Bushi and Pupeng from the Hunxie Department.
Historically, after they surrendered to the Han Dynasty, they became as famous as Zhao Ponu and became generals under Huo Qubing.
Wusun's Juduo was brought by the two of them to Chang'an from the Hunxie tribe.
People from all the countries in the Western Region could not help but feel awe-inspiring.
This Han marquis kept silent. While they were busy negotiating peace with the Han people, trying to gain benefits and retain their power, he had already made many arrangements.
Looking at the marching map at this time, the route taken by the Han army to dispatch troops was particularly subtle.
Among them, there are three groups of soldiers and horses, directed at Wusun and Yanqi.
Huo Qubing said to everyone: "I am sending troops to Wusun and Yanqi in the Western Regions. You can wait with peace of mind. News about Wusun's troops and horses should be sent out tomorrow at the latest."
After saying this, he looked at Muheche and said, "Kill him and send his head back to Yanqi."
"Wait a minute, I'm willing to surrender to the Han..." Mu Heche blurted out.
Xiao Qisheng used both hands, exerting force suddenly, and the sound of his neck bones breaking was clear and deafening.
Muhe Che was in the palace, his neck was broken in front of everyone, his head was turned 180 degrees to his back, and the look of horror on his face was frozen forever.
Huo Qubing then looked at Wu Tanzi's envoy Ashe'er and Cheshi, the two heads of state of Qianguo and Houguo.
The expressions of the three people suddenly changed.
"Master Hou...we have never colluded with Wusun and Yanqi!" Asher explained in shock.
Things took a turn for the worse.
If Huo Qubing believed that they were on the same side as Muheche and hindered peace talks between Han and other countries, they would become like Muheche in an instant.
This is completely different from the expected common advance and retreat of the peace talks between China and Han. It obviously deviates from the original intention of the countries coming to Chang'an, and no one will stand on their side.
In the face of life and death, those who used to be the masters of the country and enjoyed all the wealth and honor were the most greedy for life.
The two leaders of the chariot kingdom said in a seductive voice: "The two of us... are willing to lead the chariot army to the front country and the rear country, and sincerely join the Han Dynasty..."
To surrender one's life.
Dong Zhongshu watched the whole process and almost couldn't help but smile.
This is a portrayal of the fact that the barrel of a gun is the last word.
Huo Qubing's words just now, combined with the situation in which he resolutely sent troops, became particularly convincing.
He used the premise of sending troops and then reasoned with others. As expected, the effect was excellent and the situation was stronger than the others.
"Everyone, let's drink this cup to the fullest."
Huo Qubing raised the bronze wine bottle in front of him and did not take the opportunity to ask about the attitudes of other countries.
In the next few days, if the process of defeating Wusun with troops in the Western Region goes smoothly, these countries will naturally know what choice to make.
Roshna sighed and was the first to raise the wine bottle and drink from a distance with Huo Qubing.
Beside him, the lords of Kucha, Gumo, Wensu and other lords hesitated for a moment and raised their wine glasses one after another.
In the Western Region, the night is getting darker.
The practitioners of Yindi, including Liu Ru and Wu Yun, stood on a sand dune and looked at the Han troops pouring out of the military camp in the distance.
"Liu Ru, it seems that your analysis is very accurate. When the Han army leaves the camp and heads northwest, the target should be Wusun."
The head of the five aggregates whispered:
"In the past few days, the Han troops have been drinking water and the scriptures have been imprinted into their bodies. As long as we activate the scriptures, it will affect their minds."
"Next, shall we intercept and kill the Han generals, or shall we secretly promote the sutra seal to make the Han army lose this battle and lure the Han general champion to come to the Western Regions?"
"Don't rush to take action yet, and don't expose the Han army being affected by the seal.
If chaos occurs in the Western Region, the champion will probably come over. When he leads these Han troops, we will activate the sutra seals and take the opportunity to deal with him. "
Liu Ru said: "Our people have already gone to Wusun. Let us first pass on the whereabouts of the Han army leaving the camp and inform Wusun in advance.
The Han army rushed over and ran into Wusun's ambush. How will they win? "
"It's actually okay for the Han Dynasty to annex some countries in the Western Regions. If they fight with each other and the national destiny is destroyed, we can take advantage of it."
A few people disappeared quietly while talking.
…
On the other side, Li Gan, Yao Zhao, and Chen Qing led the army out of the Yumen Camp and advanced to the northwest.
Ten thousand soldiers and horses were dispatched to the camp, and Li Gan was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army.
Chen Qing and Yao Zhao were the left and right pioneers respectively.
Riding his horse forward, Li Gan suddenly asked, "Did the Marquis only let you two come?"
The last time they attacked the Qiang people, Yao Zhao and Li Gan joined forces to fight. They got along well together and said with a smile, "What? We two are not enough?"
Li Gan said: "It's not that it's not insufficient, but the soldiers and horses of the Yumen camp have been stationed here since they defeated the Xiongnu. All countries in the Western Regions are paying close attention to our movements. We sent ten thousand troops and openly pushed towards the northwest. It doesn't feel like Hou. My way of using troops."
Yao Zhao gave a thumbs up: "General Li is so awesome. We don't know the specific arrangements of the Marquis.
But Fu Luzhi also came to the Western Regions. He led the troops alone and marched in secret. It is unknown where he went. "
"How many people did Fu Luzhi bring?"
"have no idea."
Chen Qing interjected: "I feel that Mr. Hou may have arranged more than just a surprise attack on Lu Zhi."
Chen Qing's guess was correct.
Fu Luzhi followed Huo Qubing's order and entered the Western Regions, but the target was not Wusun or Yanqi.
After he came to the Western Regions, he unified a force of 3,000 troops and went south.
In the starry night, Huo Qubing arranged for two groups of troops to go to Wusun. The march route was unexpected and they did not even advance within the Western Regions.
But the style that raises thunder in the plains has arrived at the door of Wusun's house!
