Saint Qin Batu

Chapter 454 Parthian Empire
"Why, are you surprised to see me?"

Ying Zheng's voice sounded above the hall.Although the tone was very flat, the ministers below immediately glared at the lords of the Western Regions.

A series of cold gazes made these country lords feel like a light on their backs, and suddenly became restless.

"Savages in the wasteland dare to offend the majesty of the First Emperor!"

As the right chancellor, Feng Quji stood up, looked at the lords wearing gold and silver with a look of disdain, and scolded.

Just when the leaders of the Western Regions were afraid, but they didn't know what Feng Quji was talking about.A man who looked about 50 or [-] years old stood up.

The man said in a somewhat crappy Guanzhong dialect: "Please, Your Majesty, forgive me!"

"Oh? You can speak elegant words?" Ying Zheng raised his lips slightly and walked slowly towards the hall.

"Barely learned a little..." The man was the Lord of Shanshan. As the first ruler to submit to Qin, the Lord of Shanshan was also the first to learn Guanzhong dialect.

Fortunately, he has a good language talent, and he has studied hard along the way. In just a few months, he has been able to communicate easily.

"It just so happens that I'm also very interested in the affairs of the Western Regions. Tell me about it." Ying Zheng asked kindly, as if he had let go of his emperor's airs.

"Of all the nations in the Western Regions, the Yuezhi people and the Wusun people are the strongest, and the most prosperous cities..." The Lord of Shanshan breathed a sigh of relief, and when he was about to talk, he was interrupted by Ying Zheng waving his hand.

"I already know what you said. And what I want to hear is about the West of the Yuezhi."

"To the west of Yuezhi?" The Lord of Shanshan was obviously taken aback, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I'm not very clear about the west of Yueshi..."

Ying Zheng frowned slightly at the words of the Lord of Shanshan.

From Wang Jian's military report, Ying Zheng learned that a group of strange people had reappeared on the battlefield in the Western Regions.Moreover, it is the same as among the Huns.

These strange people can use the power of blood and evil to induce celestial phenomena.It should be from one school and one school.

Therefore, Yingzheng also strengthened the existence of the Roman Empire.

It's a pity that after capturing the base camp of the Yuezhi people, the Qin army almost slaughtered the Yuezhi family.Most of the rest fled west and south.It also prevented Ying Zheng from obtaining more information about Rome.

However, at this moment, the Lord of Shanshan spoke again.

"However, I have heard from businessmen in the past that there seems to be a powerful emerging empire to the west of the Yuezhi."

"Oh? What's the name of the empire?" Ying Zheng's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.

The Lord of Shanshan was silent for a long time, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

"Anxi, Anxi..." The Lord of Shanshan chewed a few words repeatedly, then nodded and said, "It seems to be an empire called Anxi."

"Rest in peace?" Ying Zheng frowned and began to think.

In Yingzheng's first life, the history was not very good.In his impression, at this time, the only thing worthy of praise in the West seems to be the Roman Empire.

However, chewing on the name "Anxi" repeatedly, Ying Zheng seems to have gradually gained a little impression of such a country.

"It seems that the country of Anxi is right between the Western Regions and Rome." Ying Zheng thought silently in his heart.Moreover, it seems that this country also has extraordinary strength.

Could it be that the person who appeared among the Xiongnu and the Western Regions who could use extraordinary strength came from the country of Anxi, not Rome?

"No." Soon, Ying Zheng denied the speculation in his heart.

If it is about the appearance, there may be some possibility, but judging from the narration in Jun Jiuyou's mouth that day.Those weirdos should have used the Macedonian phalanx.

Especially on their shields, there are extremely strong western-style totems.

Such totems should definitely not belong to Central Asian culture.

"It seems that before Rome, the empire still has a big problem to solve..." I thought that most of the west of Yuezhi were just Yingzheng of some small countries, showing a hint of contemplation.

However, Ying Zheng showed another gleam of joy immediately.

"Since it is a big country, if it can be destroyed, the national destiny it will gain should be much more than that of the countries in the Western Regions!"

This time Wang Jian defeated the Western Regions, and the national fortune he gained was not much, even much less than Baiyue.

If it weren't for the relatively powerful Yuezhi and Wusun, I am afraid that Yingzheng would have looked down on this little national fortune in the Western Regions.

Thinking of the fate of the country, the kindness in Ying Zheng's eyes became more and more obvious.

"The lord of the country is a man of great talent, and he can speak elegant words so smoothly in just a few months."

Ying Zheng's words overwhelmed the Lord of Shanshan, so he could only thank him in embarrassment and humility.

"Since this is the case, is the lord willing to condescend to become an official in our Great Qin?"

"To be an official?" Hearing these two words, Shanshan's head suddenly became hot, and then he knelt down, nodded fiercely and said: "The general will be willing! The general will be willing!"

"The last general?" Ying Zheng was taken aback for a moment, but then his smile grew stronger.

"The last general is the name of the soldiers. Now, Aiqing should be called a minister!" Ying Zheng helped the Lord of Shanshan up and said.

"Here! Thank you, Your Majesty!" This time, the Lord of Shanshan answered smoothly.

"My Great Qin does not support idlers. Since Aiqing is willing to serve Qin, then she must do things for Great Qin." Ying Zheng suppressed his smile slightly, and said to the Lord of Shanshan.

"Here." The Lord of Shanshan, who was still in excitement, promised again and again.

"Zhen, I will give you enough people, silk and silk, even gold and silver utensils, it's not a problem." Ying Zheng's eyes became more and more serious, and he looked like a different person from the smiling face before.

"And what you have to do is to cross the Parthian Empire and reach a country called Rome."

"Cross Anxi?" The face of the Lord of Shanshan suddenly turned pale.

Since he could remember, the trip to Xianyang was already the farthest he had traveled.

Now he is actually going to cross another country again, to a place he has never heard of.This is simply killing him!

"Pfft!"

The Lord of Shanshan knelt down, weeping, and cried: "Your Majesty, I heard that Anxi Kingdom is huge, it is said to be bigger than a hundred kingdoms, my minister..."

"Huge?" Ying Zheng's cold voice brought an abrupt end to the cries of the Lord of Shanshan.

Ying Zheng walked up to the Lord of Shanshan again, pointed to the huge sand table in the center of the hall, and said, "Is it as big as my empire?"

The Lord of Shanshan rubbed his eyes and looked towards the place Ying Zheng pointed at.

"Your hundreds of nations, plus Yueshi Wusun, are nothing more than that!" Ying Zheng pointed to a corner of the empire and said, "How dare you call it a country in such a tiny place?"

The Lord of Shanshan stared blankly at the direction Ying Zheng was pointing at.On that corner, black flags were planted.Under each flag, it represents a country in the Western Regions.

Different from the later generations, the current state of Qin not only unified Baiyue, but also regarded Donghu of the Xiongnu as its own hunting ground.The vast grasslands naturally became the territory of Great Qin.

"Your Shanshan Kingdom is only so small!" Ying Zheng lightly kept sanding the table, and the flag marking the Shanshan Kingdom was pulled up.

"As long as you can understand Rome for me, and map out the route along the way. I will give you ten Shanshan kingdoms!"
