Chapter 1185: The War is Over [Subscribe*Monthly Tickets]

Bingzhou was able to defeat the Dayuezhi who had beaten them into a panic and made them flee in fear. The equivalent exchange rate was that Bingzhou was stronger than them!

If Kongque knew that Bingzhou only mobilized the Zhenxi General's Office, one of the four towns, to attack Dayuezhi this time, it is unknown how they would react.

"Terrible Bingzhou!"

Not only the city-state lords of Peacock were afraid, but even the five dukes who were granted fiefdoms now truly understood the horror of Bingzhou.

When they were in Bingzhou before, they could not intuitively feel how terrible Bingzhou was. It was not until now that they might become Bingzhou’s enemy that they truly felt how terrible Bingzhou was.

Juyan City, Zhenxi General’s Mansion.

Luo Bing fell into deep thought as he looked at the manifesto sent from the royal city to attack the Great Yuezhi, the tiger talisman for mobilizing the army, and the golden seal for controlling the entire western counties and cities of Bingzhou and the countries in the Western Regions.

He held both military and political power in his hands and became the true King of Bingzhou Zhenxi.

"How many troops are needed to defeat the Great Yuezhi?" Luo Bing looked at his deputy general and the Protector-General of the Western Regions.

"It's not difficult to defeat the Dayuezhi. The difficult part is that they are so good at running. And your majesty and Wang Cheng's intention is obviously to destroy the country!" said the Protector-General of the Western Regions, stroking his long beard.

It was very difficult to defeat the Dayuezhi in the past, but it is not difficult now. He does not even need the Zhenxi General’s Office to take action. He can mobilize troops from the countries in the Western Regions and chase the Dayuezhi like chasing a rabbit.

The key point is that the Great Yuezhi, as one of the nomadic peoples, were too good at running. Every time they invaded the Western Regions, they ran away without waiting for them to gather their army.

Therefore, in fact, as the Protector-General of the Western Regions, he also very much agreed with Wang Cheng's decision to conquer and destroy the Dayuezhi this time.

"How many troops can the Western Regions Protectorate borrow from the Western Regions?" Luo Bing asked the Protector-General of the Western Regions.

As a former elder of a famous family and now the Protector-General of the Western Regions, this old fellow has also begun to study the art of war.

"Two hundred thousand is no problem!" the Protector-General of the Western Regions answered directly.

"So many?" Luo Bing was shocked.

"Dayuan will contribute 80,000, Wusun will contribute 70,000, the Protectorate will contribute 8,000, and other countries will contribute some. It won't be a problem to collect 200,000!" The Protectorate said with a smile.

"How much do you have?" Luo Bing asked silently.

Although he was the General Zhenxi of Bingzhou, the Western Regions was very special and was directly under the jurisdiction of the royal city, just like Hetao.

So although he knew how many soldiers the Western Regions Protectorate had, he could not rule out the possibility that these people were recruiting soldiers privately.

This is also the habit of the nobles themselves. They have their own private soldiers and can speak with confidence.

"Ten thousand? According to my title, it's not too much for me to have three to five hundred private soldiers, right?" said the second elder with a smile.

"Ten thousand people, to suppress the entire Western Regions?" Luo Bing and the lieutenant generals of the Zhenxi General's Mansion were all stunned. They all stopped their work and looked at the Protector-General of the Western Regions.

"I was originally planning to lay off some of them and only keep 6,000!" said the Protector General of the Western Regions with a smile.

"How did you do it?" Luo Bing asked worriedly.

Ten thousand people can suppress the entire Western Region, and Wusun and Dayuan can easily gather 150,000 troops, so these ten thousand people are not enough.

"It's nothing. When I first arrived in the Western Regions, I invited all their kings to a banquet, and then I killed all those who were late. Those who didn't come were also destroyed by me, including Wusun and Dayuan. After that, they all behaved well!" said the Protector-General of the Western Regions indifferently.

"..." Everyone was silent.

You are really brave, aren’t you afraid that the entire Western Region will be in turmoil and join forces to kill you?

"I can die in the Western Regions, even miserably, but if I die in the Western Regions, the Western Regions will no longer exist, don't you think?" The Protector of the Western Regions looked at Luo Bing with a smile. "If I die in the Western Regions, won't the general avenge me? Won't your majesty avenge me?"

The Protector General asked back with a smile.

Luo Bing nodded, this is indeed true.

The Protectorate of the Western Regions was directly under the royal city, and the Protectorate General represented Bingzhou.

If this guy died in the Western Regions and died tragically, Bingzhou would not let the Western Regions go, nor would it investigate how this guy died.

Wang Cheng will only care about my people dying here, and you must be buried with them!
"This is my path to becoming a famous family!" said the Protector-General with a smile.

No one knows how to take advantage of the situation better than these masters.

"It's a pity that the ruler of Daxia doesn't understand. He won't learn even after many teachings!" said the Protector-General of the Western Regions disappointedly.

"?" Luo Bing and others were puzzled. What did you teach them?
"Like the King of Wutan, I only taught him once and he learned it."

"I taught him to send someone to the border to cause trouble, and then die on the other side's territory, and finally send troops to attack the other side, and I will mediate."

"So the ruler of Wutan was so angry that he went to the neighboring country and said that the sheep of the neighboring country had eaten his grass, and he almost destroyed the neighboring country."

The Protector General of the Western Regions said with a smile.

As a die-hard fan of Bingzhou and the number one loyalist, the Western Regions Protectorate naturally favors Wu Tanguo to the utmost.

"But the ruler of Daxia just can't do it. I asked him to provoke those countries further west, but he told me that those countries were too strong and they couldn't afford to provoke them!" The Protector-General of the Western Regions said, hating him for not fighting and lamenting his misfortune.

It was precisely because of the incompetence of the ruler of Daxia that he was defeated by Dayuezhi. He had no intention of helping and without giving any orders, the countries in the Western Regions just stood by and watched.

It was precisely because of this that the King of Great Xia was forced to run to the royal city to ask to see Yan Yan.

"There is a gap between those who have studied in the royal city and those who have not!" sighed the Protector-General.

Almost all the people in Wutan Kingdom received reform and education in Gaoquesai and Wangcheng in Bingzhou.

"So, in this war, the Zhenxi General's Mansion will dispatch another 30,000 troops as the main force to participate in the war." Luo Bing thought about it and finally spoke.

Originally, he planned to mobilize an army of about 50,000 to 80,000, but the Western Regions could mobilize so many troops on their own, so he only needed to mobilize the elite troops from his own headquarters in Juyan Lake, and there was no need to mobilize troops from other garrisons.

"That's enough!" The Protector General of the Western Regions nodded with a smile.

The 30,000 elite troops from the Zhenxi General's Mansion plus the 8,000 from the Western Regions Protectorate, that's a total of 40,000 elite troops.

What's more crucial is that these 40,000 troops are professional soldiers, which is totally different from those armies in the Western Regions who are soldiers in wartime and farmers in peacetime.

Therefore, although the military force in the Western Regions seems to be large, compared with the elite troops in Bingzhou, it is not even on the same level.

What's more, with Luo Bing leading the troops, these 40,000 can be used as 100,000.

"Go and mobilize the troops. I will send someone to notify the specific assembly orders and marching movements!" Luo Bing gave the order.

"Well, I don't know anything about fighting. I can only cooperate blindly!" said the Protector General of the Western Regions modestly.

Professionals do professional things, and he, a half-baked man, is not capable of marching and fighting.

It's enough to tease the countries in the Western Regions, but it's not enough to compare with veteran generals like Luo Bing.
