Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 946 Controlling the Western Regions 2
In Xiliang, in the camp of the Han army, teams of elite soldiers are practicing, and batches of prisoners are being escorted to the camp for guarding.After Gongsun Xu defeated the 30 main force of the Anxi Kingdom, he not only obtained a large number of cattle, sheep, horses and supplies, but also captured 10,000+ prisoners.

In the largest tent in the middle of the camp, the generals under Gongsun Xu's command were discussing fiercely about the upcoming battle, while Gongsun Xu himself was reading information on the commander's seat, and from time to time chatted with Guo Jia, Jia Xu, The three of Li Ru exchanged opinions. For this western expedition, Gongsun Xu brought all the generals under his command, including three military advisers.

"Report to my lord, the envoys from the Anxi Kingdom brought them here." Huang Xu opened the curtain and walked in to report: "They are outside the tent now, do you want them to come in?"

"Anxi Kingdom, hehe, are you finally unable to hold on?" Gongsun Xu put down the information in his hand and said: "

Bring them in, I'll see what they want. "

The generals in the tent stopped arguing in an instant, and all of them stared outside with rather unfriendly eyes. After a while, the envoys of the Anxi Kingdom were brought in, and all the soldiers focused their eyes on them.

"Your Excellency is His Royal Highness King Zhao of the Great Han..."

"Presumptuous, since you know that my king is here, why don't you kneel down?" Zhang Fei smashed the table with his palm and roared, "Sure enough, a small barbaric country doesn't know etiquette. How dare you be so arrogant in front of my king."

"I am the envoy of Anxi, representing your Majesty." The envoy retorted: "My Majesty is the king of the Anxi Kingdom, and has the same status as your emperor. Your King Zhao is just a man under the emperor's hand. How can there be one in the world?" The reason why the king of a country bows down to the subjects of a country, hmph, I'm afraid you are the ones who don't understand etiquette."

"What a sharp mouth, to be so eloquent." Cao Ren pointed at the envoy and cursed, "You are an envoy from a small barbaric country, how dare you be so arrogant."

"Our country of Anxi has a vast territory, more than ten thousand li, and two million elite soldiers." The envoy laughed and said, "If this is considered a small country, then I am afraid that the big man you call is not even as good as a small country."

"Things that are not ashamed, I,,,,,,"

Cao Ren wanted to swear, but he saw Gongsun Xu raising his hand to signal others not to speak. After a long time, Gongsun Xu suddenly laughed and said, "Your Excellency should have studied my Han culture, but it's a pity that all you know is superficial. Your Chinese It's okay, at least I can understand, given your performance just now, I will give you death."

"When the two countries are at war, it is not the custom of your Han people not to be beheaded." The envoy panicked: "How can you be so unpretentious as a big country? Aren't you afraid that people in the world will laugh at you?"

"I, Gongsun Xu, can kill whoever I want, and anyone who dares to stop me." Gongsun Xu snorted coldly: "You, an envoy from the Anxi Kingdom, dare to act presumptuously in front of me. It's a joke. Don't say it's you, it's just you!" Your monarch dares to speak like this in front of me, I want to kill him too, what are you, hmph, kill..."

"His Royal Highness Zhao Wang, please forgive me, please forgive me, the villain knows his mistake..." The sharp-eyed and stubborn did not end well. Your Highness, please forgive me, I am bringing the sincerity of my country's monarch to discuss peace with the big man, and I ask your Highness to bypass me this time for the sake of the friendship between the two countries for many years."

"What news did your monarch bring?" Gongsun Xu asked, "Negotiating peace requires sincerity. Don't tell me that you just want to come to negotiate peace with me with only one mouth."

"Don't dare, dare not." The emissary was obviously intimidated by Gongsun Xu's tough attitude, and he didn't dare to lie in front of Gongsun Xu. Soon, the emissary took out a brocade silk from his bosom and handed it to the person next to him. The guard said: "The sincerity of our monarch is all on this, please look over it, Your Highness."

Gongsun Xu took the brocade and took a look at it, sneered, and handed it to Guo Jia and the others. After Guo Jia saw it, he also sneered and said: "Your country is so sincere, since you want to cede the Western Regions to me, can I be a big man?" I have to give you a gift in return."

"Don't dare, I'll let you return the gift. I just hope that it would be best if Anxi and the big man don't fight again." The envoy replied: "To show sincerity, our monarch has already ceded the territory. Please think about the people of the two countries, Your Highness. No,,,,,,"

"Let me ask you, who owned the Western Regions in the first place, and who owns them now." Gongsun Xu yelled angrily, "As I said before, you must have the sincerity to negotiate a peace. , so what, now that my big Han cavalry is all over the Western Regions, do you still dare to say that this is your territory? If you are not sincere, then see the truth on the battlefield, my big Han cavalry will soon cross your country of Anxi When the time comes, I will have a good chat with the monarch of your Anxi Kingdom in your palace."

"Ah, Your Highness, you,,,,,," the emissary was trembling with fear, and finally he lowered his head and asked, "Then according to Your Highness, what should we do?"

"Attack 30 war horses, 200 cattle, sheep and camels, and another tribute of 50 million taels of silver and [-] taels of gold." Gongsun Xu replied: "If you don't even have this sincerity, then don't talk about it."

"Your Highness, this, so many things, I,,,,,, "As the envoy of the Anxi Kingdom, no matter what conditions the other party puts forward, he will press down. Only in this way can the interests of his own country be guaranteed.

"The territory of the Anxi Kingdom is more than ten thousand miles, and the number of cattle, sheep and horses is tens of millions." Gongsun Xu said with a smile: "If such a huge country can't even show this sincerity, then I have to ask my subordinates to get it in person. My subordinates are all here now, you can ask them how much they would take if they went to get it themselves."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, we still have this sincerity." The envoy quickly replied, "I will prepare these things as soon as possible after I return."

"It's not as soon as possible, it's within half a month." Gongsun Xu shook his head and said, "I can wait, and neither can my subordinates. I hope Anxi will not let me down."

After the envoy left, everyone in the tent started discussing again, and Zhang Fei even stood up and said, "My lord, do you want such a thing? Isn't it too bad? At least 50 horses are needed. The war horses of the Anxi Kingdom not bad."

"What do you know?" Gongsun Xu replied: "If you want too much, they will definitely not be willing to take it out. At that time, they will have to wait. What I want now is not too much. If they save a little, they will definitely be able to get it within half a month." It was called out, and, hehe, do you think this is the end? Zixiao, tell me, what should we do next?"

Cao Ren stood up excitedly and replied: "We will continue to weaken the strength of Anxi with war, and this is just the beginning. Anxi will definitely not stop here, then we will have more opportunities to make a fortune, but, I don’t know what strategy His Highness will adopt to continue the attack.”

"There is no need for a plan, the Anxi Kingdom has no intention of giving up on this war at all." Gongsun Xu gradually narrowed his eyes and said: "Anxi Kingdom has borrowed troops from Guishuang, and they sent envoys to stabilize us temporarily, hum Hmph, everyone, your contributions will come again soon..."
