Emperor Hongwu Qin Feng wanted an edict from the daughter of the second emperor of Jiashi and sent it to Ma Chao.

Ma Chao has been worried these days, Daqin has no tradition of sending his daughters to foreign countries, he is afraid that Emperor Hongwu will agree to Jia's request and fall into the name of Daqin. This old fellow is fifty or sixty, and he still wants a princess, it's really hateful!

Therefore, when Ma Chao got the edict, he was overjoyed. In a hurry, he summoned the Kushan envoy, and ordered the interpreter Deva to copy a translation of the Kushan language, and asked the Guishan envoy to take it with him.

The envoy of Guishan was very happy, because he had successfully completed his mission, and his heart said that his majesty would be happy at this moment, and he was able to marry a princess of the empire, which neither the Roman emperor nor the Emperor of Rest had ever achieved.

This is also the case, the emperors of the empire are accompanied by many princesses of the kingdom, but if you talk about the princesses of the empire, there are really none.

Therefore, when Emperor Gasega II received the reply from Emperor Hongwu, he was very happy to open the edict.

"This bright yellow satin is good, the letter from the emperor of the East to me, ha, it is really the first in the West, it is worth having, and it will be put in my storage room for collection." As he spoke, he opened the edict, and saw that there were many square characters written on it, and he did not know it.

The special envoy of Guishan hurriedly nodded to the side and said, "Your Majesty, there is also a translation, you can read the translation." ”

"Oh." Kasega then opened a parchment roll next to him and looked at it in detail.

The envoy of Guishan was overjoyed in his heart, waiting for the emperor's reward, but who knew that the face of the second emperor changed greatly, and he exclaimed: "What! Emperor Hongwu wants my daughter?! ”

The imperial prime minister in the palace, who was waiting for the good news, was stunned for a while. How did things turn the other way around? I even want the emperor's daughter! It was true that Kasegah II had six princesses, but all of them were married. Could it be that he cut off his husband and gave the widow to Emperor Hongwu. By the way, the feet passed a little past the two Guishan sons!

Although he was old, he fought all his life and built a great empire, and he was a great king, with the title of king of kings, and no one dared to disobey his orders. I saw that his angry white beard was fluttering, and the crown like a golden hoop on his head was trembling, and he got up and scolded angrily: "Bastard, you dare to bring back such a letter." You're teaming up with Emperor Hongwu to tease me! ”

"Ahh The emperor's anger made the envoy of Guishan pee his pants in fright, and he collapsed to the ground with his buttocks, shouting: "No, Your Majesty, the minister doesn't have it, the minister doesn't know!" ”

"Stupid!" Kasega II was even more furious, "You brought it back without looking carefully, what use do I want a courtier like you!" He stepped down from his throne and kicked out his envoy with one kick. Puzzled, he chased after him and stomped on his feet, only then he shouted angrily: "Come on, drag it out and hang it!" ”

Click-clattering sound. The samurai in front of the body, who was dressed in armor, came up like a machine, and two people came up. One carried a tomahawk, the other a mace, and their faces were wrapped in helmets with iron armor masks. And he took the envoy out and hanged his head.

"Your Majesty is angry!" The Imperial Prime Minister Ali Laka shouted loudly, bowed and saluted, "Maybe Emperor Hongwu also has good intentions. I want to marry the princess of the empire, thinking that it is good for eternity. Why don't you agree to Emperor Hongwu, I heard that Emperor Hongwu is in the prime of life. If you can give birth to a prince, with the support of my Kushan Empire, you will definitely be able to become the emperor of Great Qin in the future. This is of great benefit to the expansion of the royal bloodline. ”

"My grandson is the Great Qin Emperor?" Gasega scratched the root of his white beard, but his face changed again, and he said that I went there to find my daughter, and it was too late to give birth. The thought only passed through his mind, the great king of kings, Kasegas II, had a brain, and at the same time, the dignity of a great king made him never give his daughter to others as a bargaining chip for friendship.

And he was wise enough to see Emperor Hongwu's despicable heart, and said angrily: "I asked Emperor Hongwu to marry his daughter to me, but Emperor Hongwu didn't say anything, but asked me to marry his daughter to him." He didn't mean to marry my daughter, but instead used this matter to insult me. To insult me is to insult the Empire, and this matter must not stop with him. ”

The ministers looked at each other, and they didn't know why the emperor didn't give up with Emperor Hongwu.

"Pass my order and order the imperial general Gassanid to wipe out the Great Qin army on the border and teach Emperor Hongwu a lesson. Let him know that I am the one who will not allow him to resist. He listens to whatever I say. Did he think that by conquering the chaotic and weak subcontinent, he would be able to build an empire? If he does not listen to me, I will drive him out of the subcontinent ....... ”

In Kasserga's view, his conquest of the subcontinent was easy, but the later control would involve too much energy from the empire. And in the west of his empire, there is a great empire that is not inferior to him, so he did not send troops to the subcontinent.

The Prime Minister of the Empire, Ali Laka, was taken aback, "No, if you declare war with Emperor Hongwu, you will definitely take the opportunity to provoke a war in the west of the empire!" ”

As a result, the ministers persuaded them not to fight with the two empires at the same time.

The elderly Kasserga II laughed with wisdom and said confidently: "Although Great Qin has the "roof" plateau, bordering my Kushan and the Western Regions, his real strength is in the Central Plains. If he had crossed thousands of miles to fight, would I not be able to defeat an expeditionary force at my own doorstep? ”

Kasega II touched his beard and said disdainfully: "This young emperor has been blinded by his sudden surge in strength, so let me teach him a lesson, and let him know that in this world, there are many beings he cannot afford to provoke." He doesn't come out of that bullshit Central Plains, he just walks out, he has to know that he is ...... in this world. Kasega stretched out his little finger and touched his fingernails, "He's just a little guy." ”

In his old age, he had seen the rise and fall of too many empires, such as the mighty Egypt, the great Greece, the prosperous Persia, the powerful empires that once ravaged the world, and now they were either provinces of other empires or vassal states. Therefore, the second emperor of the Gyalsega looked down on the emerging Great Qin State at all, and even more down on the Hongwu Emperor.

"Expeditionary Force!"

"If there are more sorties, thousands of miles away, we can't afford to support them, and if there are fewer sorties, it's not enough to fight."

"Your Majesty is wise, let that humble Emperor Hongwu know the strength of our Kushan Empire!"

As a result, the king of kings, the emperor of the world's top four great Kushan Empire, Gyazega II, issued an edict to his southeastern border general, Gassanid, to destroy the Qin army.

Half a month later, the world ushered in the fifth year of Hongwu.

On this day, the palace of Kasega was shrouded in clouds, and the ministers were cautious, and the face of Kasega II was extremely ugly. With the sound of heavy footsteps, everyone followed the voice, and saw the warrior in iron armor, dragging the wounded Gassanid to the temple, shaking his hands and throwing it out.

The seriously wounded Gassanid could barely move his body, "Honorable Majesty, the Qin army has a formation that has never been seen before, they are well-equipped, the horses are strong, and our army is ...... Defeat....... ”

Chalsegas II could no longer bear it, and the dignity of the empire was ruthlessly trampled on at this moment, which came from the defeat of Gassanid. This made the emperor with the title of king of kings lose face, thinking about the words he said half a month ago to teach Emperor Hongwu a lesson, it is tantamount to slapping himself hard.

Kasega did not dare to look at the courtiers below, for he was like an old lion who, in his last glorious years, had been provoked by a young lion from a foreigner. He must not endure this evil breath, and roared with his hair open, "Order the governor of the province of Bharayaga, Vesu Tapo, to mobilize troops and horses to destroy the army of Great Qin on the border. Kill them all without leaving one! ”

"Knock the shame of this empire into the dungeon, and sacrifice it with his blood when the empire's armies achieve a glorious victory!"

No one objected to this, because it was about the dignity of an empire, and only bloody killings could save face.

So, in order to maintain the dignity of an empire, the Kushan Empire once again sent troops. Vesudova, the governor of the province of Palayaga, in the southeastern part of the empire, and his son, a powerful imperial general Vesilika, mobilized an army of 100,000 to conquer the Qin army on the southeastern border.

In the battle of Yussanid, although the 7,000 trapped army led by Ma Chao defeated the camel soldiers of Kushan, it also lost more than 3,000 people, including more than 1,000 wounded soldiers. When the scout reported the news of the gathering of the Kushan army to Ma Chao, Ma Chao decisively chose a strategic retreat. He protected the wounded soldiers and quickly retreated to Fancy City. and ordered the vassal states of the subcontinent to send troops to carry goods to finance the war.

Annoyed, the Khadesega II could not accept this outcome and ordered his governor, Vesutava, to attack the city of Fanish.

Ma Chao's army was less than 10,000, and the army of the subject country was less than 30,000, and the news of asking for help was quickly sent to Sanjiang City in Nanban Prefecture.

Emperor Hongwu was temporarily in the palace, Qin Feng was on the throne, and his face did not have any expression, making people wonder what the young emperor was thinking, "Great Qin is being challenged from outside, as an important minister of the country, what do you have to do?" ”

Jia Xu thought for a while, and then went out and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you negotiate peace?" ”

"Peace?" Hongwu Emperor Qin Feng's expression changed suddenly.

Guo Jia pondered, Ma Chao won the battle in front, the dignity of the country was not compromised, and there was still an opponent in the hinterland, Dongwu, it was really not good to start a full-scale war with a huge empire at this time. He also followed out and said: "Your Majesty, what Jia Xu said is very true. There are also Dongwu entrenched in Jiangdong and Jingnan in China, and it is not appropriate to start a war with Kushan at this time, so it is better to negotiate peace. ”

"Peace!" A bloodshot shot appeared in Qin Feng's deep eyes, and a right eyebrow kept jumping.

Xin Xianying behind the veil, when he recorded it here, it was really difficult to write, "The rising Great Qin, is it going to end in the first foreign war with the initiative to negotiate peace?" (To be continued......)
