The people in the hall were just arguing with each other at first, but in the end, both sides were angry, and many people quarreled loudly and fiercely, and Ji Ge, the prince of Cheng Zhou, strode up to Zhan Bai and roared loudly: "Zhan Bai, bring my army, I want to go back to save my father." ”

Zhan Bai frowned and persuaded: "Brother Ji, you have to be calm, brute force can't solve any problems." ”

Brother Ji laughed twice, and then looked at Zhan Bai coldly: "My kingdom is in danger, my father and queen mother, my brothers and sisters don't know whether they live or die, my people are being mutilated, you actually let me calm down, how can I calm down?" ”

Brother Ji lost his comprehension a little, stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhan Bai, and the last sentence was already roaring loudly.

Zhan Bai's face turned cold: "Brother Ji, pay attention to your attitude. ”

Brother Ji smiled coldly: "Don't play prestige with me here, others are afraid of you, but I'm not afraid of you, make me anxious, it's a big deal that we break up, no one can think about it." ”

Others don't know that Zhan Bai is in detail, but Brother Ji knows that he is very clear, don't look at Zhan Bai is very majestic, in fact, that is just the surface, without the strong support of the high-level leaders of the Western Regions, Zhan Bai is nothing, relying on that group of low-level people who can only sell their strength, what big things can be done?

"You...."

When James stood up, he was about to have a seizure.

Du Zhongbo, who was on the side, hurriedly got up and crossed between the two, and said with good words: "Everyone is their own people, why be so angry, and now is the current time of the great enemy, infighting can only cheapen others, the two adults must not be impulsive." ”

Du Zhong Bodang persuaded Zhan Bai to calm down slightly, he looked at Brother Ji coldly, and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to do?" ”

Brother Ji said coldly: "I will lead my country as a soldier and leave to recapture Xingcheng, whether you agree or not, I will do it, no one can stop me." ”

After that, Brother Ji turned around and left, with a wave of his hand, he belonged to several generals of the Zhou Kingdom, looked at Zhan Bai, hesitated for a while, and finally got up and followed Brother Ji away, they admired Zhan Bai's eloquence and strategy, but their country was ravaged by the enemy, and they could not sit idly by.

Zhan Bai wanted to stop it, but was stopped by Du Zhongbo, who shook his head: "Forget it, let him go." ”

Zhan Bai gritted his teeth and said: "Brother Ji is brave and unscrupulous, he is a fool, he will not be the opponent of the Jin army." ”

The Jin army used only 1,000 people as a small force, which was the successful attack on Xingcheng, and then a series of actions, Zhan Bai could guess that the generals of this army were by no means general, and Brother Ji was not capable, and it was very likely that he had no return, and he gave his life in vain.

Du Zhongbo knew Zhan Bai's carefulness, he was not worried about Brother Ji, he didn't care about Brother Ji's life or death, what he cared about was the 15,000 Cheng Zhou ** team in his hands, this army has a very strong combat effectiveness, and it has always been valued by Zhan Bai.

Du Zhongbo said lightly: "Brother Ji has a resolute attitude, it's not something you and I can stop, since we can't stop it, let's follow his fur and caress it." ”

Zhan Bai frowned and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Du Zhongbo said: "Give him five thousand more people, and let Shang Zhidan go with him." ”

Zhan Bai's eyes lit up slightly, his face was relieved, and he nodded and smiled: "This is a good idea, so do it." ”

Shang Zhidan is a very capable young general, Zhan Bai appreciates this person very much, and with his assistance, even if Brother Ji can't win the Jin army, nothing big will happen.

While the two were talking, more than a dozen people surrounded at this time, these people were the kings and powerful high-ranking officials of the eastern countries of the Western Regions, they saw Ji Ge leading the army back to their country, and they immediately looked dissatisfied and angry, and everyone gathered around Zhan Bai and asked him to give an explanation.

Looking at these people, Zhan Bai sat back in his chair, rubbed his brows, and suddenly had a headache.

Of the 36 countries in the Western Regions, the population is mainly concentrated in the eight central countries, and the commercial aspect is concentrated in the six western countries.

As we all know, although the territory of the Western Regions is very large, there are many countries and scattered forces, so the military is not strong, but on the other hand, commerce is extremely developed, and the status of merchants is very high, which is very obvious between the two regions and the Jin Dynasty.

Since Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty, the Dashi Empire occupied the seven states in the west of Longyou for nearly a hundred years, cultural differences, geopolitical conflicts, led to a long-term confrontation between the Dashi Empire and the Jin Dynasty, although no major war broke out, but the two sides have always been on guard against each other, hostile.

In this case, the Dashi Empire has always maintained a military force of about 100,000 in the western part of Longyou, and the supply of supporting these 100,000 troops is supported by the seven eastern countries of the Western Regions, plus the taxes that must be handed over to the Dashi Empire, which leads to the seven eastern countries of the Western Regions being very poor.

Later, the relationship between Dashi and the Jin Dynasty eased, the two sides opened trade with each other, and commerce developed rapidly, taking advantage of this shareholder wind, the seven eastern countries of the Western Regions were naturally the first to participate, and got huge benefits in a short period of time, but unfortunately this good life did not last long, with the rise of the Persian Empire, soon broke out with the Dashi Empire A fierce collision broke out, and the Jin Dynasty also broke out the second Longyou War, and the trade route was blocked for a while.

In fact, these are not important, in the eyes of the people of the Western Regions, whether it is the Dashi Empire or the Jin Dynasty, how the war is going, how many people are killed or injured, it has nothing to do with them, they only value interests, the war will always end one day, and the trade route will always reopen one day, when the war is over, everyone will trade again, that is the most important thing, but all of this has undergone a fundamental change with the sudden outbreak of Zhan Bai.

Zhan Bai has his ideals and ambitions, but what does all this, in the eyes of others, have to do with himself? The thirty-six countries of the Western Regions, although they seem to be scattered, are actually a whole, what you Zhan Bai wants to do, no one will stop you, but you can't ignore everyone's thoughts and situation.

Zhan Bai's military action, from the very beginning, the Western Regions countries were opposed, especially the seven eastern countries of the Western Regions, the reaction was the most intense, because in their opinion, maintaining peace with the Jin Dynasty, conducting trade, and earning huge amounts of money is the most important thing, once the war with the Jin Dynasty starts, even if you Zhan Bai occupies the entire Longyou, at that time, a hostile situation with the Jin Dynasty will be formed, and trade will be interrupted, this environment, for the Eastern Seven Kingdoms, what are the benefits? There is no benefit at all, you Zhan Bai has expanded the land, and we have contributed money and efforts, but in the end we will not get any benefits, and of course the seven countries in the eastern part of the Western Regions are fiercely opposed.

And Zhan Bai knew that he couldn't make sense of the seven eastern countries of the Western Regions, so he finally took the step of leaving them aside, gathering the forces of the central, western and northern parts of the Western Regions, and actively preparing for war, but he didn't expect that the Jin army took the first step and caught him off guard. 2k reading web
