Chapter 381 Connecting to the Western Regions and then the Silk Road

In the 12th year of Zhonghua, after Zhenxi General Wei Rui arrived in Liangzhou, he immediately led Hua Rong, Yang Zhi, Li Daozong, Pang De, Yan Xing and others to station troops in Dunhuang.

At the turn of spring and summer in 13, Wei Rui swore an oath in Dunhuang and sent [-] troops westward into the Western Regions.

The Han Dynasty once set up the Protectorate of the Western Regions in the Western Regions and built dozens of cities.Later, the Han Dynasty declined, the road to the Western Regions was cut off, and the cities of the Western Regions were occupied by the Western Regions.

In the north of the Western Regions is the habitat of the Northern Huns, who fled here after Dou Xian conquered the Huns.The Xiongnu who migrated westward during the Western Han Dynasty had already migrated to Europe, succeeded in the whip of God across Europe, and became the ancestors of the Huns.

After the northern Xiongnu were expelled to the northern part of the Western Regions, they had been fighting against the Eastern Han Dynasty. Taking advantage of the rebellion in various parts of the Eastern Han Dynasty, they cut off the Silk Road and oppressed the countries of the Western Regions.

And among the countries in the Western Regions, many of them worked for the tiger and gradually grew stronger.

Wei Rui led Pang Deyan to lead [-] soldiers and horses to the north, where the Huns were the most arrogant.Marching to Yiwu, he was attacked by the Huns.

However, these Huns are not as powerful as the Southern Huns.If it weren't for having a good horse and coming and going like the wind, he might have been shot to death by Wei Rui's crossbow array.

Wei Rui sent Pang De to pursue him. He stayed in Yiwu to rebuild Yihe Duwei City, leaving a Duwei leading 500 people to guard here.

The troops were divided and Yan Xing was sent northward to cross the Tianshan Mountains to attack Pulei and Yizhi.These two countries have also been oppressed by the Huns for a long time. As soon as they heard that the Han army was coming, they immediately rebelled against the Huns and greeted Yan Xing.

Yan Xing led the two countries to defeat the Xiongnu soldiers, and set up garrison cities in the two countries, leaving two captains with 500 men to garrison each.

Wei Rui took Pound as the forerunner and went westward to Liuzhong, chasing the Xiongnu and fleeing to Gaochangbi.The Huns ambushed Wei Rui and charged Wei Rui from above the sand dunes.In the end, before rushing down the dune, Wei Rui shot him over, and he had to run away again.

Wei Rui continued to send Pang De to pursue him, and he himself rebuilt Wuji Xiaowei City in Gaochangbi.A school lieutenant was left to lead 1000 people to protect the grain road.

Continue westward to Jiaohe City, which is already occupied by the front of Cheshi.Wei Rui attacked the front of Che Shi, drove him out, and took back Jiaohe City.

Continuing westward to Weixu, the country of Weixu was also coerced by the Xiongnu.Wei Rui sent troops to attack Weixu and the Xiongnu.The Huns fled again, and King Wei Xu led his people to surrender, begging Wei Rui for forgiveness.Wei Rui reprimanded him for his bad behavior, made his son king and sent him to Shouchun.

The king of Weixu country got a good end. Many kings of the 36 countries in the Western Regions were killed by the Huns, and even the country was cut off.Some kings who were biased towards the Huns were also killed by Zhang Yijun during the battle, and they were directly expelled from the country.

Wei Rui led his troops to Nanhe City and attacked Yanqi State.The Yanqi Kingdom was also an accomplice of the Huns, and its king was killed by the Pang De tribe during the battle.After occupying Nanhecheng, Wei Rui directly expelled the country.

As far as Weili, they attacked the Huns in Yuli.With the lessons learned from Yanqi Kingdom, Yuli Kingdom directly turned against Wei Rui when Wei Rui attacked, killing the Huns by surprise.

Send Pang De to attack the mountain country in the east.The mountain country is located on the edge of the desert, between the north and south roads, and only a few Xiongnu soldiers are stationed.Pang De set up a garrison city in the mountain country, leaving a captain and 500 people to garrison.

Wei Rui continued to go westward to Wulei, Yancheng, and Tagancheng. The Xiongnu soldiers from the three places were concentrated in Tagancheng, as well as the subordinate soldiers of the Kucha Kingdom.Wei Rui captured it in three days and killed more than [-] Xiongnu soldiers.The Huns continued to retreat, and Kucha surrendered.Wei Rui punished the king of Kucha, escorted him to Shouchun, and re-established the Protectorate of the Western Regions in Tagan City.

Wei Rui stayed in Gancheng and sent Pang De to go to Wensu to attack Gumo, Wensu and Weitou countries.These three countries are not very big, but they occupy a lot of places.It took Pound about ten days to completely defeat them.

Pang De continued to march to Chigu City and attacked the Wusun Kingdom.The Wusun Kingdom was a major country in the Western Regions and was originally the staunchest follower of the Eastern Han Dynasty in the Western Regions.However, the Huns killed the Wusun king and forced the Wusun people to rebel against the Han.In the first battle, Pang De wiped out more than [-] Huns and more than [-] Wusun people, and successfully recovered Wusun.

Taking advantage of the victory over Wusun, Pang De went to Shule, and the Shule Kingdom surrendered.Walking to Wuji City, to Guishan City, Dawan Kingdom surrendered.

Yan Xing went west to Jinman City, attacked and killed hundreds of Huns, and restored Wubuhou City.He led his troops to Wutu Valley, attacked the rear of the chariot division, and captured the king of chariot division by surprise.The troops were divided to attack the Xiongnu in Beilu and Dongqimi, and the two countries surrendered.

Huarong, Yang Zhi, and Li Daozong traveled from the South Road to Municheng to attack Shanshan.The influence of the Xiongnu on the South Road was very small, and most of them were caused by the Qiang people.Hua Rong and Yang Zhi guarded Liangzhou all the year round and were well-known among the Qiang people, so they did not encounter much resistance in Shanshan.

Continue westward to Qiemo, attacking Qiemo State and Xiaowan State.These two countries are also small countries. Seeing the army coming, they immediately chose to surrender.

March to Zhijingjue (the ancient city of Jingjue where the ghost blows the lamp), and attack Jingjue country.The Jingjue country resisted for three days and was wiped out.

Yang Zhi went south to attack Ronglu.Rong Lu was frightened and opened the door to surrender.

Huarong led Li Daozong to continue westward to Ningmi and attack Jumi.Kumi country resisted for two days, but was defeated and surrendered.

Li Daozong sent Li Daozong to attack Qule Kingdom in the south.Qule Kingdom resisted for three days and surrendered to Li Daozong.

After the three joined forces, they continued to march to the west city and attacked Yu Zhiguo.Yu Zhiguo occupied a lot of land, and the three men divided up their troops to attack, and it took six days before Yu Zhiguo surrendered.

Divide Yang Zhi to attack Pishan Kingdom in the west.Pishan Kingdom was afraid and chose to surrender.

Continue to march to Zihe and attack Xiye Kingdom and Hutaogu Kingdom. The two countries did not resist and directly welcomed Hua Rong and Li Daozong into the city.

In Zihe, Hua Rong divided his troops.Li Daozong sent Li Daozong to attack Puli State and Deruo State to the west.The two countries had few soldiers, and both were destroyed by Li Daozong in one day.

Yang Zhi led his troops to Zihe, and Hua Rong sent Yang Zhi to the southwest to attack Wutuo Kingdom.Yang Zhi defeated Utopia with a crossbow battle.

Hua Rong led his army northward to Shache and attacked the country of Shache.After the Huns of Shache Kingdom were expelled, the king of Shache Kingdom surrendered.

Huarong attacked Wulei State to the west, and Wulei State surrendered.

So far, more than [-] countries in the Western Regions have returned to the rule of the Duhufu.However, after this battle, only sixteen countries remained among the thirty countries, and sixteen countries were eliminated in the war.

When the Western Han Dynasty established the Protectorate of the Western Regions, there were 36 countries, and the remaining four countries either left or perished, and are no longer in the Western Regions.

After opening the Silk Road, Wei Rui became the first governor of the Western Regions, restored the Silk Road, and his name went down in history. Finally, at the age of 78, he swore to be the city king.

Hua Rong and Yang Zhi were also conferred the title of Duke of the county because of their great achievements in the restoration of the Western Regions. They ranked 63rd and 64th in the list of Chinese founding heroes, and 31th and [-]st among military generals.

Afterwards, Pound went south and north, and was finally granted the title of state prince, ranking second in the list of heroes.

Yan Xing and Li Daozong also divided their forces into more than 100, and among Li Daozong's famous Chinese generals in the early stage, he also ranked in the thousands.
