The greatest significance of history for contemporary people is to let people understand what is a lesson for the past, to avoid those who do what will lead to bad situations, and to learn from the experience of those who do will have good results.

"The situation we are facing is not optimistic, but it is also a situation that has been anticipated a long time ago." Su Ren did not say too clearly. He believed that the officers could understand the meaning of the unfinished: "The local people call Herat the location assembly. With fifty thousand enemy troops, there are more than one hundred thousand enemy troops in the Aral Sea."

Herat was fifty miles to the west of their location. There was once the territory of the Persians, and the back was occupied by the Hunets.

The Aral Sea is the Aral Sea of ​​later generations. Located 120 miles north of their location, the Aral Sea is the largest lake in the area, but it is not a high-quality freshwater resource. It is in a strange position in the interior, but the water quality is similar to that of seawater.

"The enemy army over the Aral Sea was assembled by the Hunets to deal with the forces of the right-wing army. It has now become a threat to us." When Su Ren said this, the officers burst into laughter. He also laughed for a while, and then continued: "Everything is still going according to plan. What we really need to pay attention to is the enemy army in Herat."

The Right Army of the Western Regions Protected Mansion first broke into the territory of the Shujie people, and then invaded the territory of the Hunets, but only fought against the territory of the Kangju people after a little raging in the territory of the Hunets.

The Hunnites must have been paying attention to the movements of the Western Regions Protectorate. They responded during the assembly phase of the Western Regions Protectorate's preparations for invasion and moved their troops to the Aral Sea.

What the Huns did not expect was that the Right Army of the Western Regions Protectorate would turn to Kangju. I don’t know why they didn’t leave the Aral Sea assembly area. They watched Kangju under the ravages of the Han army. Sorrow is everywhere.

Su Ren looked at his military commander's history and asked, "Has the data been calculated?"

Chen Xu immediately replied: "There are more than 34,000 Western Regions who have assembled our own troops."

Before they set off, there were 5,300 people belonging to the order of the Protector House of the Western Regions, 10,000 Han Chinese Xiaoguo recruited, and 56,000 people from the Western Regions who accompanied the army.

First, they entered the area occupied by the Shujie people. They called it the first stage of the invasion, and they did not experience much loss.

What really started to produce a lot of losses occurred in the second stage of the invasion, that is, entering the territory of Hunite.

The Persians said that the Hunite fighting style was tenacious. They were suddenly invaded. Although the civilians did not organize a formed unit to resist, the Hunets did not appear to be docile when they encountered the invasion, and even It can be said that the Hunets fought stubbornly.

When the Western Regions Suihu obeyed the orders of the Han to suppress the same Western Regions, and even when violent against the Shujie people, they faced a relaxed situation most of the time. They probably did not expect the difference between the Hunets. Using the experience and mentality of the Western Regions and the Shujie people to deal with the Hunets, many unnecessary casualties occurred without taking the Huns seriously.

In the early days of the invasion of Hunite, the Western Regions lost more than 10,000 people in a short period of half a month.

The serious casualties finally let the people of the Western Regions know that the Hunets are different, and face every battle with the most vigilant attitude, and the loss is naturally reduced. Their methods and methods to deal with the Hunets have become more cruel and bloody.

"We originally wanted to see such a result." Chen Xuqing couldn't help showing a triumphant smile: "Whether the Western Regions hate the Hunets or the Hunets hate the Western Regions, it is the result that we are happy to see. "

Although the Han Empire took the initiative to invade the Hunite, the main force of the invasion in terms of the number of people is the Western Regions. The people who do all the dirty work are also the Western Regions. There will be some Hunets who will survive on certain occasions. Spread everything that the people of the Western Regions did.

Did the people of the Western Regions realize that what role they have become is not that important? They don't have the right to choose at all.

For the Westerners who participated in the invasion, they invaded the territory of the Shujie people and the Hunite people, and exchanged their heads for five baht. There are still huge trophies on the books waiting to be shared. Just seeing these is enough. Up.

"This place is our chosen battle site." Su Ren pointed to an area marked as plain on the mountain map: "The battle itself does not have a complicated battle plan. We need to have a frontal battle with the Huns. Confrontation."

They brought out 56,000 lambs. Some of the lambs fell in the growing stage, and the other lambs had been fed with blood to become mature men, with deadly horns growing on their heads.

This generation of Han people don't like threats. They think Northern Xinjiang is the biggest threat. When the domestic people's livelihood is still in a state of erosion, they gritted their teeth and solved the threat they saw.

They would go to war and even go to war with the Gupta dynasty regardless of consumption and loss. It was nothing more than thinking that the Gupta dynasty was a threat, and did not want to wait until one day that the warships of the Gupta dynasty sailed to the coast of the Han Empire and chose to take the initiative to eliminate possible threats.

Now the Western Regions who are brought out are also considered to be threats. Taking them back and carrying out a siege will not be the best plan. It is impossible to cover up the matter completely. Once they are noticed by the Western Regions, no one will be aware of it. It is only one of the bad results to respond to the enlistment of the Protector of the Western Regions. What is more serious is that it will make the Western Regions recognize the facts and carry out a life or death resistance.

"How about Xiaoguo?" Su Ren asked what kind of choices they would make when they noticed the movement of the army: "Is it stable?"

"It's very complicated." Chen Xu didn't know what expression to use, so he had no expression on his face: "Generally, the situation can be controlled, and more people who will have trouble have been transferred."

Human feelings are very complicated. Two people who don't know each other get along for a long time, and they either become friends or enemies.

It will be more complicated if there is such a touch, and not everyone can be cruel.

"Then you won't waste time." Su Ren never felt that every Han Chinese would have the same consciousness: "The situation cannot get worse."

After the meeting, the officers naturally returned to their respective teams.

The area where they are located should be regarded as a plateau area. As they are closer to the sky, the night sky they see will naturally be clearer.

Tonight is a cloudless weather. The moon has passed this latitude during the day, and there are only twinkling stars in the sky.

The Hunets are semi-nomadic and semi-agricultural. It is probably that the southeast is dominated by farming, and this place is also a plateau; the northwest is an area with a relatively low altitude, and there is a trend of a plain over there. Come to settle the nomadic tribe.

"I heard that the altitude to the south of Kunlun Mountain is higher than where we are staying?" Fang Lun was lying on a haystack, looking at the sky of uncommon stars: "The altitude of the Tianshan Mountain is also higher here. many?"

To the south of Kunlun Mountain is the modern Hoh Xil Mountain Range, and further south is the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the world's highest altitude. The Han people have not yet brought that area under their control, and are still in an exploratory stage.

Seriously speaking, the Western Regions are also a place with a higher altitude, especially the two areas of Tianshan and Congling (Pamir). The Western Regions Protectorate arranges to go to these two places for training every year. In fact, it is a kind of adaptation to the plateau. the process of.

"There are a few savages living on it, and there is a kind of cow full of hairy?" Wang Mian didn't know that it was a cow: "I heard that the meat of that kind of cow is very chewy?"

The Han people have been exploring the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau since the eighth year of Yuanshuo. All kinds of information only show that it is an extremely desolate place. It has been repeatedly confirmed that it is not suitable for the survival of the Han people. At the same time, there is no rich mineral resources after exploration. The area that can provide farming is also small and pitiful.

This is a mistake of the contemporary Han people. Maybe it is because of incomplete exploration, maybe because the technology is not enough, otherwise, the minerals on the plateau will be found to an astonishing level.

According to modern exploration, the types of resources stored on the plateau are extremely rich. There are 101 known minerals, including copper reserves of 80 million tons, gold 2000 tons, and silver more than 100,000 tons. Others include lead and silver. The reserves of zinc are even more amazing, but the reserves of iron ore are lower.

If the dynasties of the past dynasties know that there are such huge reserves of minerals on the plateau, there is no need to worry about the amount of gold and silver, only 80 million tons of copper ore is enough to drive them crazy, and it is estimated that they will be controlled at any cost. And mining.

However, all dynasties and dynasties have encountered the same situation as the Han people today, or they have explored because of the relationship between technology and have not found it, or even have not moved their sights at all.

"Zhuang Quan and the others have been transferred." Fang Lun didn't know how much Wang Mian knew, and asked, "Do you know why?"

"What else can it be." Wang Mian rolled over to make him more comfortable lying down: "They are different from me, and they don't care about the life and death of my brother-in-law or any other relatives."

Zhuangquan came from the south of the Yangtze River. There was no tragic raging by the Five Hus, and there was a slight difference in the treatment of foreigners from the Han people north of the Yangtze River.

Most of the others who sympathized with the Western Regions came from the south of the Yangtze River. They had lived in the north of the Yangtze River since childhood and survived the raging Hus. Only three or five out of 100 sympathized with the Western Regions.

They at least knew who they belonged to them, and they didn't go mad after they noticed something wrong, and they sighed everywhere, but just persuading the people of the Western Regions to leave or flee with their guards would cause the situation on this side to become extremely bad.

Fang Lun didn't know what his mood was, and asked, "They will be fine, will they?"

"You can ask the wrong person about this." Wang Mian said with a ridiculous expression: "Maybe you can ask Tun Chief Li."

Fang Lun wanted to ask, but felt that once he did that, there was a 60% chance that he would become one of the people transferred.

"We are Han people, and they are also Han people." Wang Mian said of Xiaoguo and the soldiers of the Western Regions Protector's Mansion: "If it is miserable, we will be escorted back to the Western Regions and there will be no execution."

Fang Lun was not as optimistic as Wang Mian. After a short silence, he said in an inexplicable tone: "We are participating in a war."

Whatever you want to say in the world can most easily arouse a person's evil thoughts, there is no doubt that it is war. No matter which camp you are in, the two sides treat each other as enemies. Since it is a hostile relationship, it doesn't care what means are used to eliminate it, and it becomes more and more irrelevant.

In the early morning of the next day, the sound of the horn that rang throughout the camp awakened the people in their sleep. They should clean up as soon as possible, no matter what their mental state, whether they can eat in the camp is entirely up to the commander's order.

"After three months of running, I can eat and drink with my hands free on horseback." Wang Mian's sleep quality was obviously good last night, and the whole person looked very energetic: "I can eat rice **** in this broken place. It makes me feel happier than holding a leg of lamb."

The marching troops, whether it is the regular army of the Protector of the Western Regions, the Han Xiaoguo and the Western Regions, are all chewing on the hot rice balls.

No one cares about how many food trucks are always there, but no one has noticed that there are always ten people in the team who look like civilians, and they receive far more protection than one. The soldiers who led the team~lightnovelpub.net~ They just sighed that they were so strong that they were not short of food in their hometown so far away from their hometown.

"Can you understand now why I am so desperate?" Abati gathered the hands of the rice ball and said to Zeku: "Such a small matter explains too much."

Zeku just didn't know what Abati meant as before. He only knew that Abati was one of the smart people in the village. If Abati wanted to follow suit, there was absolutely nothing wrong.

"So the king sent someone to ask me if I want to join the servant army. I didn't hesitate to choose to join." Abati didn't find out what he was going to be, but he really wanted to serve the Han Empire. He first got a certificate of good citizenship. , And then desperately to obtain naturalization: "Trust me, obey them, serve them, is our only choice."

Zeku said cleanly: "Do what you say."

For the remaining Western Regions, if the record in the exchange book is good, basically the Han army will ask if they want to join the servant army. Once they are willing, they will be included in the establishment of the servant army and become the glorious servant soldiers of the Han Empire. Since then, he has been out of touch with Suihu.

Judging from a lot of information, Abati firmly believes that becoming a servant soldier is the most important choice in his life. All he knows is that if he wants to become a naturalized citizen, he must first become a servant soldier.

"I hope that the Confucian scholars with the army will not brag." Su Ren actually has a headache: "If they are not successful, even if it is obvious, no one from the Western Regions can go back."

"It is a long process to turn barbarians into summer." Chen Xu himself is also one of the disciples of Confucianism, but now most Confucian students are actually'long' and crooked, and more inclined to metaphysics: "We can't let the whole army of Western Regions Annihilated, only we are left to go back."

Su Ren started rubbing his swollen temples again.
