Control the ancestors and create an immortal family starting from the Qin Dynasty

The Han people have their own intelligence network.

The Huns were naturally not far behind.

They wanted to take action against the big man, so they naturally made sufficient preparations.

Although Zhang's Trading Company was the number one trading company in the Han Dynasty, the Huns did not fully trust it.

After they received the food and grass provided by Zhang's Trading Company, they began to gather troops and then rushed out of the city to station troops on the border between the Northern Huns and the Han Dynasty.

But after the Huns had stationed their troops, they had no plans to attack the Han Dynasty.

This made everyone very confused.

Even the Protector General of the Western Regions was in confusion.

Because this is not what they thought.

Originally they followed the message Zhang Wei passed on to them.

The Northern Huns collected food and fodder, assembled troops and horses, and prepared to attack the Han Dynasty.

But judging from the Northern Huns' behavior, it seems that they have no intention of attacking the Han Dynasty.

at the same time.

The Han general guarding the border looked at the Northern Hun soldiers stationed not far away with a hint of doubt in his eyes, and asked someone to pass the news here to the Protector General.

The Protector General of the Western Regions is currently summoning his generals to discuss important matters.

Its main content is aimed at the Northern Huns.

They planned to defeat the Northern Huns in one fell swoop.

Then take away the governance rights of the Northern Huns here.

Eliminate the influence of the Northern Huns here.

Just when everyone was discussing the most important part, a soldier suddenly walked out from outside.

Seeing the generals inside, the soldiers immediately knelt on one knee and told them what they had discovered.

"Ok?"

People around heard the news from the soldiers.

There was a hint of shock in their eyes.

Then he looked straight at the Protector-General.

This is a little different from what they thought.

How could it become like this?
It was completely beyond their expectations.

They really didn't expect that the Northern Huns were just stationing troops on the border and had no intention of taking action against the Han Dynasty.

Moreover, Your Majesty does not agree to take action against the Northern Huns at all.

Under such circumstances, if they act rashly, it would be truly deceiving the emperor.

They really didn't dare to do anything.

"My Lord Protector, what's going on?"

"Yes, didn't the Zhang Family Business send a message saying that the Northern Xiongnu were going to attack the Han Dynasty?"

"Why is there no movement now?"

"They even stationed troops on the border. What's their plan?"

"Are you trying to intimidate the big man?"

Someone said.

They couldn't understand the purpose of the Northern Huns doing this.

The Northern Huns have already gathered food and supplies, and they still have so many warriors.

Logically speaking.

This shouldn't happen.

Moreover, the Huns were brave and good at fighting.

They are not good at forbearance.

Whenever something happens, they always advocate solving it with force.

They have made sufficient preparations here, but have never thought of taking action against the big man. What does this mean?
Gan Yanshou sat on the seat.

He closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

Because he couldn't predict the other party's intentions.

If they simply wanted to attack the big man, they could have done so.

But now...

This matter did make him a little confused.

"Send a message to the Zhang Family Business to see if they have any news."

"Tell those outside not to act rashly."

"As long as the Xiongnu do not take action, we have no reason to take action."

"Tell them to be vigilant and prevent them from crossing the defense line and contacting the countries in the Western Region."

"At the same time, strengthen the vigilance on both sides. If any trace of the Xiongnu is found in the Western Regions, arrest them immediately and make a decision after identifying them."

"Here!"

The people below nodded.

They looked at Gan Yanshou and turned around to do their work.

After seeing these people leave, Gan Yanshou sat directly on the chair and looked at the topographic map of the Northern Huns.

The Northern Huns split from the Huns.

They were dissatisfied with the Han Dynasty's rule and support for the Southern Xiongnu.

I have long wanted to take action against the big man.

However, they never thought of fighting alone.

They even established a city on the border between the Western Regions and the Xiongnu.

He even allied with the King of Kangju.

They thought they were far away from Dahan Mountain.

It is impossible for the Han Dynasty to send a large army to attack them.

This leads to their lawlessness.

He didn't take the big man seriously at all.

He even joined forces with the King of Kangju to build a city at the border between the Western Regions and the Xiongnu, hoping to divide the Han Dynasty's rule in the Western Regions.

After noticing this matter.

Gan Yanshou tried his best to stop it.

He even wanted to completely eliminate the Northern Huns or drive them further north.

Let them never think of stepping into the Han territory.

Originally, he had already written his request in a memorial and submitted it to the capital.

But what he never expected was that his idea was rejected.

No one agreed to his request.

Your Majesty actually asked him to withdraw his troops.

He also told him not to engage in a major war with the Huns.

This is really unreasonable.

After knowing this, he naturally couldn't tolerate it.

Then he disobeyed Liu Shi's orders.

Want to take direct action against the Northern Huns.

I thought that the Huns would attack the Han Dynasty under his instigation.

By then, they will have legitimate reasons to prepare to fight back.

In this way, they would not be considered to be disobeying the emperor's orders.

But what he never expected was that the Northern Huns actually gave up attacking the Han Dynasty at this time.

There was not even the thought of another decisive battle.

I also want to station troops here.

He looked at the distance between the Northern Huns and the countries in the Western Regions.

Then he glanced at the current topographic map of the Northern Huns.

The Northern Huns were indeed very far away from the Han Dynasty.

But their ties with the countries in the Western Regions are very close.

All countries in the Western Regions have connections with the Northern Huns.

This is also the reason why the Northern Huns wanted to divide the Western Regions and the Han Dynasty.

It's not just the countries in the Western Regions.

Even he received an invitation letter from the Khan of the Northern Xiongnu.

The Northern Huns wanted him to surrender to the royal court.

Together they rebelled against the Han people.

At that time, he could also give himself a king who would rule the world with him.

Others might believe this, but he would never believe it.

The Huns were cunning by nature.

They never keep their word.

If you believe what the Huns say, it would be like having one foot in the underworld.

Since the Huns have no intention of attacking the Han Dynasty.

He also had no valid reason to remain on the border line.

He is still needed to guard the Western Regions.

If he leaves the Western Regions, the situation may get worse.

As soon as the order was issued.

Gan Yanshou assembled his troops, left behind some guards, and left the border.

This place is not very far from the Western Regions Protectorate.

Not only did they have to maintain their rule over the Western Regions, they also had to guard against the Huns' covetousness of the Han Dynasty.

One general is certainly not enough.

Zhang Wei has now penetrated deep into enemy territory.

They just need to do the things in front of them well, and some things will naturally be solved.

The news of the evacuation of the Western Regions Protectorate reached the ears of the Northern Xiongnu generals in an instant. When the Xiongnu generals learned that the Western Regions Protectorate had evacuated the battlefield, the corners of their mouths slightly raised.

He currently has no intention of going to war with the Han Dynasty.

The reason why they set up a city here was to use it as a base for outward expansion.

Then win over the countries in the Western Regions.

Let the countries in the Western Regions submit to them again.

If they could get all the countries in the Western Regions to stand on the side of the Xiongnu, they would have the manpower and resources.

If the countries in the Western Regions also joined the crusade against the Han Dynasty, even if they could not defeat the Han Dynasty, they could still damage the Han Dynasty's national strength.

Wait until both sides are exhausted.

They are reaping the benefits.

Why not?
They learned all these plans from the Han people.

We have established diplomatic relations with the Han Dynasty for so many years.

They had long been familiar with the culture of the Han Dynasty and their administrative strategies.

Over the years, they even sent countless scholars to the Han Dynasty to learn culture from them.

And how to govern the country?

Of course, what they were most exposed to was Confucianism promoted by the Han Dynasty.

But this thing was not popular among the Huns.

Why would the Huns need such a thing?
The Hun warriors conquered the world with their own fists.

Why would I learn these Confucian things?
Compared with Confucianism, they actually believe more in the Legalist thought promoted by the Han Dynasty.

This is exactly what the Huns need.

After learning the Legalist thought promoted by the Han Dynasty, they adopted some different methods and strategies in governing the country and the army.

At present, their army is no longer a loose sand.

Especially the cavalry.

Everyone obeys orders.

Once a war breaks out, these people will be the first vanguard to rush towards the enemy.

After being transformed by Han culture, they were asked to stab the sharp blades in their hands into the chests of Han soldiers.

This scene is sure to be beautiful.

When the Hun general thought about the scenes that might happen in the future, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on his face.

Then have people stationed here.

As long as the city behind is not built, he will not take action against the Han Dynasty.

After the city is built, it will be the best time for them to take action against the Han Dynasty.

Now, of course, I have to waste time.

at the same time.

In the newly built city occupied by the Huns.

Zhang Wei tasted the fine wine from the Western Regions from time to time.

Don't say it.

The wine from the Western Regions is really good, and their glass making is also great.

It has a unique flavor.

It is very different to sit here and enjoy delicious food while drinking fine wine.

"Sir, there's a letter from the Protector General!"

Just when Zhang Wei was tasting the wine.

A soldier walked in from outside.

In his hands he held a white dove.

Then he stood beside Zhang Wei respectfully.

Zhang Wei looked at the soldier and took the pigeon from him.

After taking the pigeon, Zhang Wei took down the letter.

After seeing the contents clearly, Zhang Wei's eyes flickered.

Then he put the cup aside and stood up from his seat.

"Very interesting!" Zhang Wei murmured to himself.

He also didn't expect that the Northern Huns were actually gathering their troops on the border between the Han Dynasty and them.

So far, you have no intention of taking action against the big man?
Then why were they clamoring so much before?
"Is the news true?" Zhang Wei asked.

The soldier nodded: "This carrier pigeon flew over from the Western Region Protectorate, there won't be any problem."

"And there is reliable news that the Protector-General has brought troops back to provide support!"

Even the protector general's men have returned the same way they came.

The Northern Huns would naturally not attack the Han Dynasty again.

After Zhang Wei learned of this conclusion, a different color appeared in his eyes.

He waved his hand and asked the big soldiers to leave.

After the soldiers leave.

Only then did Zhang Wei send a notice to the people in Zhangjia Commercial Bank.

Let them come over to discuss important matters.

Zhang's firm also knew that this matter was of great importance.

After receiving Zhang Wei's message, they immediately came to where Zhang Wei lived.

Just entered the tent.

Zhang Wei's voice rang out: "The situation in the north has been settled."

"In recent years, the Northern Huns should not attack the Han Dynasty."

"But the Northern Xiongnu still have to rely on the Zhang Family Trading Company. You should stay in the city built by the Northern Xiongnu during this period and provide them with food and fodder."

"However, the price of food and fodder must increase by 30%."

"Here!"

The people around nodded.

They have received news from Kyoto.

I also know that Kyoto has handed over all the power here to Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei is now their helmsman.

Naturally, they had to follow Zhang Wei's orders.

After Zhang Wei saw that they understood, he led the Han army and quietly left the city where the Northern Huns were located.

He had other things to do.

It was previously thought that there was a fierce battle between them and the Huns.

It now seems that the Huns had no intention of attacking the Han Dynasty at this time.

Think about it too.

Although the Northern Huns hated the Han Dynasty.

But he didn't dare to attack the big man openly.

The authority of the Han Dynasty still exists.

When the late emperor was alive, he simply defeated them.

The Huns were even required to offer tributes and come to pay homage every year.

Now, the Huns are just a vassal state in the eyes of the Han Dynasty.

Moreover, this vassal state was not particularly large and was not taken seriously by the Han Dynasty.

Under such circumstances, how could the Northern Huns dare to go to war with the Han Dynasty without any preparation?
They will definitely think twice.

Only after confirmation will we take action against the big man.

Since the Northern Huns don’t have the courage to do so.

He naturally wouldn't waste time here.

After everything in the city was prepared.

Zhang Wei left the city without any regrets.

When he appeared again, he was already in the Western Regions Protectorate.

The news that Zhang Wei had returned to the Western Regions Protectorate spread throughout the entire Western Regions Protectorate in an instant.

Gan Yanshou was the first to summon Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei was summoned to Gan Yanshou's tent.

Seeing Zhang Wei return safely, Gan Yanshou breathed a sigh of relief, then stood up from his seat, walked to Zhang Wei, raised his hand and patted Zhang Wei on the shoulder.

"Well done."

"If it weren't for the news you brought, I might not be able to hold back and take action against the Northern Huns."

"If we take action first, it will be against the emperor's order. If things go wrong, both you and I will lose our heads."

"Fortunately, this matter has been successfully resolved, but someone needs to explain to the Imperial City. How about the General go there?"

Gan Yanshou looked at Zhang Wei dimly.

If he handed over the position to Zhang Wei.

Then he returned to the imperial city to plead guilty.

Your Majesty will definitely take advantage of the situation to relinquish the military power in your hands.

A person whom Your Majesty can trust will also be sent to take charge of the Protectorate of the Western Regions.

At that time, Zhang Wei would naturally become the Protector General of the Western Regions.

How could he give this opportunity to Zhang Wei?

After all, Zhang Wei is a member of the Zhang family. Even if he returns to the imperial city and does something wrong, His Majesty will not do anything to Zhang Wei.

I will definitely handle it with care.

After all, the Zhang family is now in its heyday.

Even His Majesty has to show some courtesy to the Zhang family when he sees them.

Not to mention, Zhang Wei is also one of the important capable people in the Zhang family.

Therefore, letting Zhang Wei go back this time is the safest decision.

Zhang Wei looked at the person in front of him and did not refuse, but agreed. (End of this chapter)
