Emperor Liu Hong

The preparations for the expedition have already been almost ready.And what Liu Hong needed was to consider bringing those people with him.In this way, it would be easy. As for the commander, Liu Hong asked Li Ying and Liu Fu to go out with him. As for the general, as long as there were no missions, he would take them with him. Then, he mobilized his troops and headed towards the 36 countries in the Western Regions. .

In the past, it was not easy to go to the Western Regions, but now it is easier.After all, the railway leading to Anxi has already passed through their section. As long as they take the train, they can reach them quickly.

Of the 36 countries in the Western Regions, the closest to the Han Dynasty are the Qiang and Loulan.And the railway leading to An'xi happened to pass by here, so Liu Hong and the others' first stop was here.

Raoqiang is an extremely small country, and Loulan is not that big.The two of them were next to each other, and when Liu Hong and the others got off the train, they were all within Liu Hong's attack range.

Seeing the Han army coming, the kings of these two countries were terrified.Hurry up and send someone over to ask where the big guy got offended.

This is the first time for Liu Hong to come to this place in the Western Regions, regardless of his previous life or present life.Therefore, how could he have any spare time to meet people from those two countries? He took Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Hu Che'er and his guards with him, and began to appreciate the customs of the Western Regions.

Liu Hong could ignore the two envoys, but Liu Fu and Li Ying could not.Therefore, they had no choice but to raise their accounts and bring the two envoys here.

"My lords, I don't know why the vassal country has made the Celestial Dynasty unhappy, and even provoked the army of the Celestial Dynasty to attack. Please express it clearly, and I will wait for the small country to correct it?"

"It's really unreasonable, you don't know what you did, and you still come to ask us, it's really unreasonable!"

"Exactly!" After hearing what Li Ying said, Liu Fu also said, "Up to now, you don't realize what mistakes you made, so it shows that you don't take us big guys seriously at all. Therefore, we Sending troops to destroy you this time has not wronged you!"

Hearing that the big man was going to kill them directly this time, the two envoys were frightened and stuttered. "Two big men, we really don't know where we have offended you, the Heavenly Dynasty. Please tell us, two big men, that even if we are going to die, let us die in the open?!"

"If you want to be a sensible ghost, that's good. I'll help you!" Seeing their appearance, Liu Fu stopped talking nonsense to them, and said directly: "You countries, as the vassal countries of our big man, have you ever asked for help? Did our big man pay tribute? When your king took over, did you get permission or appointment from our big man? You have never had any of these. This shows that you didn’t see our big man at all, and didn’t take our majesty at all. Seeing the eyes, do you think that we big men can destroy you without sending troops?!"

Hearing this, the hearts of the two messengers went cold.After all, what the big man said is the truth, this is indeed what their country did not authentic.

Now that you know the reason, you need to quickly remedy it.Therefore, the two envoys no longer dared to stay here any longer.Immediately get up and rush back, let their king find a way to go.

The two kings were all dumbfounded when they heard the reasons that the two messengers said.You know, although they are nominally a vassal state of the big man, none of them take the big man seriously.Especially after the Han weakened, it was impossible for them to pay tribute to the Han.In this way, this matter was slowly and completely forgotten by them.Even if the big man stood up again, they still didn't think about paying tribute.

"Oh, what can we do about this, this point. It's really our fault?!"

The two kings turned around in a hurry. After all, they knew that since the big man had arrived, he would never be easily dismissed.And their ministers can only be dead horses as a living horse doctor, trying their best to come up with a remedy.

"Your Majesty, the top priority now is to prepare the tribute immediately and send it to the big man, in order to ask for the big man's forgiveness. Otherwise, our country will probably be successful..."

Although the words were not finished, the two kings all understood the meaning.So they immediately prepared tributes to go to the big man to make amends.

The big man's army is here, how could they let them go just because of a little tribute.But the big man didn't let go of what he got.So, Liu Fu and the others left the tribute, and then kicked the people from those two countries out of the camp of the Han army.

Seeing that the big man did not forgive them, both Luo Qiang and Lou Lan didn't know what to do.And at this moment, Huang Zhong came to Luoqiang with a team of troops.

Liu Hong came here purely to relax, therefore, all the matters of the battle were left to Liu Fu and Li Ying.But the two of them saw that the opportunity was rare, so they directly ordered Huang Zhong to lead people to destroy the Rao Qiang with the least number of people first, so as to give the 36 countries in the Western Regions a blow.

Huang Zhong has been holding back for several years, and he is already impatient.And now when he came to the Western Regions, he was able to be the first to go out, which made him very happy.You know, this is the first victory of this expedition, and he must win it cleanly.Therefore, when he arrived at Raoqiang, he was not polite at all, and ordered an attack directly.

Raoqiang was once annexed by Loulan.Therefore, his number is very small, with a total of more than 1000 households and a population of 6000. Therefore, as soon as Huang Zhong's army arrived, they immediately surrounded them, and they couldn't even escape.And if they want to fight the big man, it is even more impossible. After this period of intensified production, although the big man's new muskets have not been completely replaced, all the troops on this expedition have already changed their equipment.They used cold weapons, and if they wanted to compete with the hot weapons of the big man, they would just die. Therefore, it didn't take much time for Huang Zhong to completely take down Lao Qiang. [

"Although the number of people is not large, but no matter what, this is annihilation of a country. And it is the first achievement of this expedition, which is not bad!"

Huang Zhong escorted the people of Laoqiang back to the camp, but the people of Loulan were frightened.They didn't expect that the big man would wipe out Yao Qiang so quickly.

"It seems that this time the big man is really serious, and we Loulan will definitely not escape the end of destruction."

King Loulan realized that something was wrong, so he had to make the last effort to send someone to ask how the big man was doing before letting them go.

The envoy who received the order quickly ran to the Han camp, and at this time, the Han army was also ready to deal with Loulan.The reason why it was late to attack Loulan was entirely because Loulan was protected by a city.In this way, it is much more difficult to deal with them than to deal with Lao Qiang, and some preparations are required.

Now, the big man has a lot of ways to attack the city.Even if they came in a hurry this time and didn't bring artillery, they brought all of them, whether it was explosives or airships and hot air balloons. These things, any of them, can easily capture the city.

In this siege, in order to reduce casualties, the Han army chose hot air balloons.Therefore, it took a long time to prepare, but the effect of the siege was good. A few dynamite packets were dropped, and Loulan's city gate was blown open.

Loulan's envoy saw a hot air balloon flying over as soon as he left the city, but he didn't know what it was.Therefore, he still rushed to the Han camp.But when he heard those loud noises and saw the city gate being blasted open, he knew it was broken.But before he had time to react, the crazy Han army rushed over.

"broken!"

Not only the messenger thought so, but the king of Loulan also thought so.In order to keep the green hills, King Loulan wanted to take people out.But the Han army has long been preventing them from escaping. Not only are they all prepared at the city gates, but the soldiers who have finished throwing explosives on the hot air balloon are now holding binoculars and staring at those city gates to see if there is any escape. Yes, so immediately command people to pursue.

With these arrangements, King Loulan can still run there.Not to mention the King of Loulan, even the others failed to escape, either captured by the Han army or beaten to death by the Han army.

After capturing the city of Loulan, Liu Hong and the others don't have to suffer in the wild, and they all moved to the city.And when they moved to the city, the news of their extermination of Raoqiang and Loulan spread in several nearby countries.

You must know that the 36 countries in the Western Regions are not very far apart, and they all pay close attention to each other, whether they are friendly or wary.Therefore, as soon as Liu Hong and the others made a move here, they got the news there.

"What is the purpose of the big man to destroy Raoqiang and Loulan this time? Do they know to destroy these two countries, or do they want to destroy us all?"

Don't look at them, they all know that the Han army wiped out these two countries, but this time, the Han army didn't let go, either killed or captured them. Therefore, none of these countries know why the Han army raised troops.

But even though they didn't know why the big man raised his troops, they just guessed. They also knew that once the big man sent a large army, it was impossible to just wipe out Yao Qiang and Lou Lan.Therefore, the countries Qiemo, Xiaowan, Jingjue, and Ronglu prepared gifts overnight and went to the Han army to inquire about the specific situation.

"Made, now one by one is running to get faster, but what did you guys do so long ago?!"

Liu Hong is full of contempt for these countries.Of course, he didn't have the heart to meet them, so Liu Hong left the person who would meet them to Li Ying and Liu Fu.

The two of Liu Hong are quite helpless. You know, they are busy with the two countries just now.But at this critical moment, Liu Hong asked them to meet those envoys again, of course they were reluctant.But Liu Hong is the emperor, no matter how angry they are, they dare not come to Liu Hong, but if this happens, those envoys will be out of luck.
