Chapter 684: War
Thank you for the reward from the False Silent Son!
Cao Cao came out of the Qianqing Palace and walked straight towards the harem, with Dian Wei and Cui Yingying following closely behind Cao Cao.
Cui Yingying's current identity is not an ordinary female official, but a funeral concubine, more than a year ago, Cui Yingying finally failed to escape Cao Cao's clutches, although Cui Yingying's current identity is a funeral concubine, but she is still responsible for what she was responsible for in the past, that is, she also serves as a female official.
The three of them walked along the corridor towards the queen's bedroom, the three of them were not very good, Cao Cao was a little depressed because he was about to leave, Cui Yingying's mood was of course the same, and Dian Wei looked anxious to say something.
Cao Cao finally noticed Dian Wei's expression, and couldn't help but stop and ask in surprise, "Dian Wei, do you have something to say to me?" ”
Dian Wei immediately knelt down and pleaded: "Your Majesty, please let me help Your Majesty to go to the Western Regions!" ”
Cao Cao smiled, helped Dian Wei up, patted Dian Wei's majestic arm with some emotion, and said with a smile: "What are you anxious about?" As the general of the Imperial Guards, of course you have to go with me! ”
Dian Wei couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, "Really? ”
Cao Cao asked with some amusement: "You don't joke, will I still lie to you?" ”
Dian Wei smirked, his big fan-like hands kept touching his head, Cui Yingying couldn't help but smile when she saw Dian Wei's funny appearance.
On the second day, Cao Cao packed up his mood and led 5,000 Imperial Forest troops to leave the palace and came to the garrison of the First Legion outside the city.
Cao Cao stood on the podium and raised his voice to the iron army below, which could terrify all the powerful enemies in the world: "Warriors of the Great Wei Empire. Go with me! ”
The 50,000 soldiers couldn't help but boil their blood boiling, and they raised their weapons together and shouted: "He!! ”
For reasons of secrecy, the departure ceremony was not held as in the past. After Cao Cao admonished several cabinet ministers who had stayed behind, he led the army on the road.
Meanwhile. The spies lurking in Wusun and Xiye received direct orders from Cao Cao, respectively.
Two days later, at noon, an unexpected incident suddenly reached the ears of the king of West Night and Pishan, and last night, at the junction of West Night and Pishan, a patrol of West Night suddenly disappeared, and then more than 100 bodies were found in the territory of Pishan.
The prince of the West Night, King He, was furious, and on the one hand sent people to report the situation to the Wei army left behind in the West Night, and on the other hand ordered the army under his command to assemble, and the lord of the West Night was originally Mo Du. However, this person didn't listen to greetings very much, so he was replaced by Wei two years ago.
In the evening of the same day, Wang Qi, the son of the current king of the Western Night, ordered the army to immediately attack the border city of Pishan, after discovering that the Wei defenders had not objected.
Tongye City is located at the junction of Xiye and Pishan, with a population of more than 1,000 people and a garrison of 100 people. The 100-man defenders of Pishan were caught off guard, and what was even more unexpected was that when the western night attacked, the city gate was opened by a group of homeless people in the city.
The army of the Western Night then marched into the city. A horrific massacre ensued, filled with the screams of the people and the captives before they died, and the most terrible cries of the women in their desperate situation. His eyes were covered with blood, and the people were mercilessly slaughtered by the mad army like cattle and sheep.
The matter spread to the royal city of Pishan. The government and the opposition were shaken, and the angry King Pishan immediately ordered General Zuo to lead all the troops to counterattack Xiye.
General Pishanzuo led an "army" of 500 and arrived at the city of Tongye three days later. A fierce assault was immediately launched on Tongye City, while the two hundred defenders of the West Night took advantage of the favorable terrain to confront the Pishan army.
The war between the two countries shook Usun and the other two countries that had rebels, and the envoys of the two countries who remained in the royal city secretly visited Queen Usun.
"I've seen the Queen!" The envoys of Pishan came to the side hall to pay respects.
The envoy of Pishan secretly came to Wusun half a month ago, as the secret envoy of Pishan, at this time, in addition to the envoy of Pishan and Queen Wusun in the side hall, there are also Yang Kai, a close confidant of Queen Wusun, and the envoys of Mi and Qule.
This Yang Kai is a fugitive Han man, and he is also the national teacher of the former King Wusun era, but now Yang Kai's identity is the military advisor and prime minister of Wusun, which can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person.
"No need to be polite! I already know the thing! What is the current situation? Queen Wusun said calmly.
The envoy of Pishan immediately briefly explained the cause of the whole matter and the present situation, and at the end, he pleaded with a tight face: "Queen, please also send troops to help you and me for the sake of the two countries!" ”
Queen Wusun did not respond immediately, but asked, "Have you asked Great Wei to intermediate?" ”
The Pishan envoy nodded, "My king has sent an envoy to the Western Regions Protectorate, but he hasn't replied yet!" However, looking at the reaction of the garrison in the West Night, it can be seen that they don't seem to have the intention of mediation! There was a hint of resentment in Pishan's emissary's tone.
Queen Wusun thought for a moment, and solemnly said to the envoy of Pishan: "Pishan and my Wusun have always had a close relationship, and I, Wusun, will never sit idly by!" ”
Then he turned his head to Yang Kai on the side and said, "Military Division, immediately order the troops stationed in the border city to assemble!" When she said this, Queen Wusun gave Yang Kai a very covert look.
Yang Kai agreed, promised, and left.
Seeing this, the Pishan envoy couldn't help but be grateful, and thanked him: "Thank you Queen Gaoyi!" ”
Queen Wusun smiled slightly and said very kindly: "The envoy doesn't have to be polite! And that's right! ”
Queen Wusun pondered: "Looking at the current situation, we must start it in advance!" He raised his head and looked at the envoys of the Three Kingdoms present with an inquiring look.
Without thinking about it, the Pishan envoy echoed: "We, Pishan, are completely at the disposal of the queen!" ”
Qule and Mi's envoys glanced at each other, and also hugged their fists together and said, "This is also the intention of our country!" ”
Queen Wusun said loudly with a little excitement: "Good! There are only 100,000 Wei troops in the Western Regions, and we will definitely be able to expel the Wei people's forces from the Western Regions! At that time, I, Wusun, am willing to divide and rule the Western Regions with the Three Kingdoms! ”
When the envoys of the Three Kingdoms heard this, a touch of greed flashed away, and the co-governance of the Western Regions was the reason why the Three Kingdoms were bold enough to prepare to rebel, and in their opinion, it was not very difficult to expel the Wei army from the Western Regions, and before Wei, the Western Regions had not been under the rule of the Han for a long time! Didn't the Han army that ruled the Western Regions before also be expelled by them, and the legendary powerful Han didn't react, all of which was their greatest source of confidence!
Queen Wusun said in order to reassure the three "little brothers": "The three of them may not know that the Dajin Kingdom has reached an agreement with the main palace that as long as our army attacks the Western Regions Protectorate, they will attack the Northern Protectorate of the Wei State from the north!" Let Wei not be able to take care of each other! ”
The three of them couldn't help but light up in their eyes. Qule's envoy asked with a look of disbelief, "Queen, are you saying that the Jin Empire in the north will also use troops against Wei?" (To be continued.) )
