Chapter 462 World Pattern
After Liu Chan explained the affairs of Yongzhou Longyou, he returned to the room to rest, it was still early, but after several days of marching, Liu Chan was also quite tired, and slept on the bed, and he had to continue to set off back to Yizhou early tomorrow morning.
As for Zhuge Liang, he had to stay in Yongzhou for a while longer, and he could only return to Yizhou after Yongzhou was completely stabilized and all the soldiers and horses in the two places were formed.
If it weren't for the birth of his son, Liu Chan would have waited until the two places were completely stable before going back, and he would not be in such a hurry.
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"
As soon as Liu Chan fell asleep, there was a call outside the door.
Listening to this voice, Zhuge Liang came over in person.
"Did something happen?" Liu Chan suppressed the displeasure in his heart, he knew that if there was no big incident, Zhuge Liang would not come over to trouble him, so Liu Chan put on his clothes and opened the door.
When I opened the door, I saw Zhuge Liang standing under the porch, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, Wusun Kingdom, the Dayue clan sent an envoy to ask for a meeting." ”
Liu Chan frowned: "Why don't you come early or late, but come at this time." ”
Zhuge Liang explained: "Your Majesty just left Liangzhou, they arrived, I heard that Your Majesty just left, it has been chasing here, Wusun Country is the largest country in the Western Regions, and the Great Moon Kingdom has existed for hundreds of years, they are anxious to see Your Majesty, Weichen did not dare to call the shots, so they had to come to ask Your Majesty." ”
Liu Chan nodded and said, "Take me to meet them." ”
Although Liu Chan was in a hurry to return to Yizhou, when he heard that Wusun and the envoys of the Great Moon Kingdom had arrived, he did not dare to be careless and went to meet him in person.
Wusun is located in the northwest of the Western Regions, nominally speaking, it is not actually the countries of the Western Regions, and does not belong to the jurisdiction of the Western Regions Protectorate, its land area is half the size of the Western Regions, with a population of 340,000 people, and 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses.
If they offend Wusun, although the Han are not afraid, if they make a stumbling block in the Western Regions, then the Western Regions will not want to be peaceful.
And the Otsutsuki clan is even more incredible.
The Otsuki clan is actually Guishuang.
There is actually a relationship between this Guishan and Wusun.
Hundreds of years ago, at the turn of the Qin and Han dynasties, the Da Yue clan and Wusun were both nomadic people in the area of Dunhuang in present-day Liangzhou, adjacent to the Xiongnu.
Later, the Dayue clan was defeated by Wusun and the Xiongnu, moved to Bactria in Central Asia, took root, and gradually replaced Bactria .
In the end, the Kushan, one of the five Xi marquis of the Da Yue clan, unified the other Xi marquis, conquered the east and west, and marched into the Ganges River valley of the subcontinent, and finally established the Kushan Empire.
And the marquis is also a noble tribe, the meaning of the leader, the status is second only to the king.
Later, Wusun also migrated to the Ili River valley and established the Wusun state.
As for why Zhuge Liang called the Kushan Empire the Great Moon Clan, it was because he didn't know that the Great Moon Clan had long been replaced by the Guishan Clan.
It is true in history that King Bo of Guishan was transferred to Wei to send envoys to dedicate himself, and was canonized by Cao Pi as the king of the pro-Wei Dayue clan, which shows that Cao Pi did not know the situation on the Guishan side.
But Cao Pi didn't know that the pro-Wei Dayue clan Wang Bo Tuo, whom he canonized, controlled no less land than him, and the population and soldiers under his rule were not much worse than those of Wei, after all, Guishan, Dahan, Anxi, and Rome were known as the four great empires of this era.
In the Central Plains, the impression of Guishan is only a few hundred years ago, for example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Zhang Qian to the Western Regions to find the Dayue clan and ask to deal with the Xiongnu together.
Or in front of more than a hundred, the King of Guishan begged for the Han princess, and sent 70,000 troops to attack the Western Regions, and was defeated by Ban Chao.
Liu Chan came to the palace, and Zhuge Liang said: "Your Majesty, the envoys of the Wusun Kingdom and the envoys of the Dayue Clan are waiting in the side hall, I don't know which envoy you plan to see first?" ”
Liu Chan muttered: "Let's announce the envoy of Wusun Kingdom first." ”
"Xuanwu Sun Kingdom's envoy is here!"
However, after a while, the envoy of Wusun Kingdom walked in, and after talking with the envoy of Wusun Kingdom for a while, Liu Chan understood the thoughts of Kunmo of Wusun Kingdom (king, leader, Shan Yu, the meaning of Shan Yu, is the lord of Wusun).
Wusun Kingdom is independent of the Western Regions and does not belong to the jurisdiction of the Western Regions.
The reason why Kun Mo of Wusun sent an envoy a few months later than the countries of the Western Regions was that he wanted to see the strength of the Han first, if the strength of the Han was average, there was no need to send an envoy, and if the Han was strong, it would not be too late to send an envoy.
Jiang Wei arrived in the Western Regions for only a few months, and with only 100 people, he established the Western Regions Protectorate, united vertically and horizontally, divided and co-opted to manage the Western Regions in an orderly manner, although the Western Regions had not been completely pacified, but also let Kun Mo of Wusun know that the Han was not something that Wusun could provoke, so he sent envoys to pay tribute.
After finding out the mind of Kunmo of Wusun Kingdom, Liu Chan named Kunmo of Wusun Kingdom as the king of Wusun of the pro-Han Dynasty, which can be regarded as a good friend of Wusun.
After receiving the envoy of Wusun Kingdom, Liu Chan sent the envoy of Guishan Kingdom to meet him.
The envoy of the Guishan Kingdom was about forty years old, tall and straight, and his appearance was not much different from that of the Han people, after all, the ancestor of the Guishan clan, the Da Yue clan, migrated from the area of present-day Dunhuang.
"The envoy of the Guishan Kingdom, Yan, has seen His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Han Dynasty."
The Kushan envoy spoke fluent Chinese.
Liu Chan frowned slightly, pretending not to know: "Guishuang? Isn't your country the Otsuki clan? ”
Yan smiled and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor doesn't know that as early as more than a hundred years ago, the Dayue Clan was replaced by my Guishuang. ”
"Oh?" Liu Chan nodded and asked, "Then I don't know what the King of Guishan sent an envoy to Han, what did you do?" ”
Yan replied: "Your Majesty, the Great King sent the Great Han to congratulate His Majesty on defeating the Wei State, and secondly, to ask for relatives. ”
Liu Chan raised his eyebrows: "Asking for a kiss?" ”
Yan nodded and said: "Yes, I heard that Your Majesty has a younger sister, who is at the age of marriage, and the king learned that His Majesty defeated Wei and recaptured the Western Regions, so he intended to ask His Majesty for marriage, hoping that the two countries would marry and communicate with each other. ”
Liu Chan said lightly: "You are very well-informed, and you actually know that I have a younger sister." ”
Liu Chan's sister Liu Ting is thirteen years old this year, and she can get married, but Liu Chan didn't expect that King Botuo of Guishan would know the news.
However, Liu Chan was not surprised, this wave tone is also a talented monarch, before this, Guishan has been weakened, but after he succeeded to the throne, the Guishan Empire gradually became stronger in his hands, although he was a cold bystander to the war in the Central Plains, but he has always been paying close attention.
However, although this wave of rhetoric is eloquent, it is a matter of the early days of succession, and in his later years he is a faint king, he was born in 170 A.D., and is now fifty-four years old, at this time Guishan is in his hands, has gradually declined.
Because in two years, the Sassanid Empire (Second Persian Empire) established by Ardashir, the king of kings, will replace the Sabbath, and around 230 years, it will attack Kushan, dealing a huge blow to Kushan, causing Kushan to decline.
During this period, the Han Dynasty, known as the four great empires, Rome, Anxi, and Kushan had actually gone into decline.
The Han Dynasty was torn apart and replaced by the Three Kingdoms, while the Kushan fell at the hands of the Bo Tune, the rest was destroyed by the Sassanid Empire, and Rome erupted in the third century crisis.
Only Ardashir, the king of kings, established the Sassanid Empire, flourished, first replacing the Sabbations, then inflicting heavy losses on the Kushans, and then attacking Rome and capturing several Roman emperors.
