Chapter 1257 The Finale
After defeating the Jurchen Han army, Xue Rengui led his troops to leave the north and return to Youzhou.

However, Su Dingfang's army stayed in the north.

Although the Jurchens were destroyed, there were still many remaining forces. If the Han army left after the Jurchens were wiped out, the remnants of the Jurchens would come back.Only by staying here and slowly operating can these sites be completely digested and incorporated into the territory of the Han Dynasty.

The following year, the canal from Jizhou to Xuzhou was also dug.

Liu Bian ordered the excavation of the canal from Yuzhou to Jiangxia.

In the same year, the Han army went north to attack the grasslands.

This time, the Han army did not make a tentative attack like a few years ago, but the entire northern force, trying to wipe out Mongolia in one fell swoop.

In Youzhou, Xue Rengui sent troops fifteen.

In Bingzhou, Li Jing sent 15 troops.

In Shuozhou, Lin Yu sent [-] troops.

In Liangzhou, Chang Yuchun sent [-] troops.

In Guanzhong, Zhuge Liang sent [-] troops.

In Liangzhou, Cao Cao sent 15 troops.

In Jizhou, Yue Fei sent [-] troops into Bingzhou to act together with Li Jing.

A total of more than [-] Han troops penetrated into the grassland from all directions.

In recent years, the Mongolian shield has entered the depths of the grassland, and the great Han has built a large number of castles on the grassland to store food and prepare for the future attack on Mongolia.

These castles penetrate hundreds of miles into the grasslands.

After the Han army went out, the inland governors of various states mobilized millions of civilians to continuously deliver food to these established fortresses and transfer stations.

The introduction of sweet potatoes and corn, the improvement of rice and wheat, the birth of various farm tools, and the methods of farming in the imperial examinations of later generations increased the grain production of the Han Dynasty several times. The Han army went out without worrying about food and grass.

The reason why the grassland nation is difficult to wipe out is because of its strong mobility. If the enemy invades on a large scale, they will escape into the grassland and hide.

However, with such a large-scale dispatch of troops by the Han army, there is a continuous supply of food and grass in the rear, and the Han army can garrison on the grassland for a long time.

When the Han army penetrated deep into the grassland, Mongolia had no escape and no retreat.

The Han army had reached the door of the Mongols, and the Mongols had no way to retreat, and there was no way to escape.

In the far east, Xue Rengui sent troops to sweep all the way, penetrating thousands of miles into the hinterland of the grassland, and all the tribes in the grassland were wiped out.

The Mongols then moved west.

But Xue Rengui pursued closely and led his troops to kill to the west.

In the end, Tuo Lei stationed in the eastern grassland had no choice but to fight the Han army.

But for the Han army, the forces of the four prefectures of You, Bing, Ji, and Shuo have converged in one place, with a total of 40 troops.

On the Mongolian side, the number of troops that can be drawn on this grassland is less than 15.

A big battle ensues.

On the side of the Han army, there are Li Jing, Yue Fei, Xue Rengui, Huo Qubing, Lin Yu and other top commanders.

On the Mongolian side, only Tuolei, Murong Ke, Que Teqin and others are the opponents of the Han army.

The war lasted for almost a month.

In Mongolia, the 15 people became less and less, and in the end there were only more than [-] people left. Generals such as Murong Ke and Que Teqin were even beheaded by Jia Fu.

Blood flowed like rivers on the Mongolian grasslands, and Tuo Lei saw that the situation was not good, so he could only lead the army to break out of the encirclement and retreat to the west.

On the grassland north of Liangzhou, Zhuge Liang and Chang Yuchun also led their troops northward to besiege Mongolia.

On this piece of grassland, Mongolia's military strength is only about [-], and the leading generals are Murong Chui, Tuoba Gui, Hu Luguang and others.

Although they were rare cavalry generals, they couldn't hold back the large number of Han soldiers, and Zhuge Liang, Chang Yuchun, and Wang Zhongsi were also top commanders.

After more than a month of fierce fighting, Murong Chuihu Luguang and others were about to be beheaded by the Han generals Pang De and Gao Siji respectively, and Tuobagui could only lead the remnants to flee westward.

As for Xizhou, Cao Cao also led his troops north to attack Mongolia.

At the same time, Wusun, Dawan, Kangju and other countries sent troops to help.

Under the command of Cao Cao in Xizhou, there are 15 troops, and there are no less than 25 troops from Dawan, Kangju and other countries.

And Mongolia's military strength in this grassland is only about [-].

Facing the fierce offensive of the Han army, the Mongols couldn't resist it at all, and on the Han army side, there was also Li Cunxiao, a peerless general who could defeat ten thousand with one.

Wherever the Han army went, the Mongols were all defeated. In just one month, only 4 or [-] of the [-] soldiers and horses were beaten.

But in the east, Tuo Lei, Tuoba Gui and others also fled here with the remnants.

Because Chang Yuchun, Li Jing and other two armies were in Xiliang and on the grassland north of Bingzhou, the battle line was too long, and it was difficult for the Han army to come.

Tuo Lei gathered the remnants and defeated generals from all over the country, and also gathered an army of 10,000+, so he wanted to fight to the death with the Han army led by Cao Cao.

At this time, Guo Kan suggested dragging mines and leading his troops to move westward to Anxi, further west where Rome is located.

Considering that if the battle continues, Chang Yuchun and Li Jing in the east will lead their troops to arrive, and Mongolia will be completely wiped out by the Han army. Tuo Lei finally agreed to Guo Kan's suggestion and led the remnants of Mongolia to move west.

Seeing that Mongolia was moving westward, the Han army did not continue to pursue it.

After all, the Han army has suffered a lot from the continuous fighting in the past few months, and if they continue to fight, it will only be a situation where both sides will suffer.Mongolia can move westward to fight Anxi and Rome, which is a situation that the big man would like to see.

In two years, Mongolia and Jurchen in the north were also pacified by the Han army.

The territory of Jurchen, Mongolia, and Han was pacified, and it was expanded again.

It reaches the East China Sea in the west, the South China Sea in the south, the southwest region, and penetrates into the barren land in the south, and the northeast region, and arrives at Heilongjiang, where the Great Khingan Mountains are located.In the north, the grassland area south of Moon Lake is all Han territory.In the west, it goes directly to the Tianshan Mountains, and in the northwest, it reaches the Aral Sea.

With such a territory, in the entire history, only the Yuan Dynasty established by Mongolia can rival the Han Dynasty.

However, the Yuan Dynasty was relatively divided and consisted of many khanates, while the Han Dynasty was a truly unified country.

The Great Han at this time can be called the number one empire in the world, even if it is Rome, it cannot be compared with the Great Han.

In the face of such a powerful Han, Dawan, Kangju, Wusun and other countries bordering the Han even voluntarily became affiliated countries of the Han.

Due to the surrender of Dawan, Kangju and other countries, Liu Bian ordered the soldiers and horses of Xizhou to enter Guishuang, and began to slowly manage the west.

On the east side, Liu Bian only ordered at this time that Su Dingfang of Yunzhou sent a navy to Dongying to help the Wa Kingdom Himiko restore the country.

But at this time, Himiko is not so enthusiastic about restoring the country, because a few years ago, he was taken into the harem by Liu Bian as a concubine, and she lived very comfortably in the big man, so why would she have the idea of ​​returning to Dongpu to become the native queen?
One year later, Dongying was pacified, and Liu Bian became Yingzhou in Dongying.

And the Taiwan Province of later generations, which is today's Yizhou Island, was also occupied by the big Han, but this island is still a barren land, and the people are all aboriginals. Liaoyi County is under the jurisdiction of Yangzhou.

In the six years of Yong'an, Liu Bian has passed his age.

The Han Dynasty is already extremely powerful, and now Liu Bian is not thinking about continuing to expand, but is concentrating on various domestic constructions.

40 years old, not old, Liu Bian's road is still very long, and the road of a big man is also very long.

Perhaps one day, when the horseshoe is stepped out, the lofty ambitions of all Han natives will come true...
