Chapter 766

When Li Kuang received the report of the war ahead, he specially summoned varug and chizheru who were brought with him after the defeat to wait in the tent.

"Shanshan people have no resistance to our entry. Shanshan people everywhere are very cooperative." Fan Jin said that the Han Army collected food and grass from the south of bailongdui: "we found that Shanshan is in a split, forming a separate regime in the form of tribes and towns."

When the Han Army enters the western regions and the army advances directly to bailongdui, a small group of troops will disperse.

Bailongdui is a large area. The territory of many countries is a part of bailongdui, such as Shanshan.

The choice for the western regions to face the Han army is Jianqing Biye. There are no people within 200 miles west of Yangguan. Even if there are cities and towns, people walk empty, and buildings are specially burned down.

After two hundred miles, the Han Army found that they could still find some Shanshan people. When they saw the Han Army, those Shanshan people showed many different aspects. They were afraid of nature, but they were generally friendly and looking forward to it.

"They know we are here to recover the western regions, but they don't know how we will recover it." Fan Jin smiled strangely before continuing: "nearly ten tribal leaders wanted to come over and were appeased for the time being."

"Come here?" Li Kuang was a little confused and then reacted: "is it for the throne of Shanshan king?"

Shanshan is in a split. If there were powerful people, Shanshan would have been reunified long ago. It is precisely because there is no strong figure in Shanshan that the division of Shanshan has lasted for decades. They have no ability to unify themselves. No outsiders wanted to see a reunified Shanshan before, but aren't Han people coming now?

In the past, the Han people ruled the western regions better than the Han rulers. The kings of the western regions ruled the western regions with the kings and leaders of the western regions to achieve the steps of controlling the western regions. The Han people did not directly participate in the folk governance of the western regions.

To put it bluntly, the way the Han people ruled the western regions was to make the western countries autonomous. The western countries provided the food and grass for the Han Army and paid tribute to the Han center every year. It's tribute, not tax. The way of Fu was that the kings and leaders of the western regions sent out labor to help the Han troops stationed in the western regions build military facilities or participate in farming.

"The big man will not follow the old rules." Fan Jin said that there would be no kings, leaders and other characters left: "what the Great Han wanted in the western regions was the county system."

In the past, the Han people didn't want to govern the counties in the western regions, but it has never been settled. There are complex local situations in the western regions. More importantly, the Han Dynasty center thinks that the western regions are too far away. Governing the counties and counties in the western regions will destroy the western regions, and the cost of sending troops to sweep the western regions is too much for the national treasury to support. In the end, it can only be thought about.

The Western Han Dynasty, the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Cao Wei Dynasty and the Western Jin Dynasty could not govern counties in the western regions. It took thousands of miles to dispatch troops from the Central Plains to the western regions. If thirty or fifty thousand troops were dispatched, if they wanted to maintain supplies, they would be at least thirty or five million stones of grain a month, of which Seventy-eight percent would be consumed during transportation. Even if they are cruel and willing to bear the consumption, they can only get a smashed western region, or the western region that has been rebellious all the time.

"Today is different from the past." Li kuangyou had a special understanding of the past history and knew that his ancestors were worried about consumption and return: "the Great Han should learn from the previous lessons. It has been proved that without governing the counties, the Han people will never really control the western regions."

Even the Gupta Dynasty, which is tens of thousands of miles away, has been defeated in the Han Dynasty. What strength will you worry about in the western regions?

Of course, distance is still an unavoidable trouble, but transportation consumption is not at all. Then there is the current upsurge of Han nationalism. The capture of slaves is really addictive. The Central Plains have been smashed. Are you afraid to smash the western regions?

"That's why I didn't let the leaders of Shanshan tribe come over." Fan Jin always had a smile on his face. The more he smiled, the more reserved he became: "we will not support a king of Shanshan, but Shanshan people can use it."

The name adopted by the Han state when it entered the western regions was to recover the western regions, but it seemed to the people of the western regions that it was another invasion by the Han people.

In fact, the Han people also knew that they were doing the invasion. No one cared about the name. They wanted war merit, wealth and population.

Throughout history, Zhuxia will find various names for their military operations and try to avoid using the word "invasion". When other countries and nations conduct cross-border military operations, they have not avoided the word "invasion".

For example, during World War II, the allies launched military operations to land in Europe and France from Britain. Except that the French used the word "liberation", the other allies used the word "invasion". Among them, the U.S. military has really done a full ten of the "invasion", where it goes is to make every effort to search. Even ordinary soldiers send packages from Europe to their homeland every month, which is not enough at all. It also makes the high-level specially increase the weight of packages that soldiers can send. Soldiers are like that, not to mention the planned robbery by the army. After the recovery of France, the new French government has nothing else to do, that is, it has been protesting against the robbery of France by the United States.

During World War II, it was not only France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg... Including Germany that protested against the empty country of the Yankee army. Anyway, one of them protested that it was almost empty, but it was useless.

Compared with the words "liberation" and "recovery", the term "invasion" is used as the definition of military action. However, a practice of any country except Zhuxia, such as the United States, has not been covered up. Their later definition of overseas war is also "invasion", whether it is the Korean War, Vietnam War, Yugoslavia war, Iraq war and Afghanistan war, They are directly defined as "invasion". The difference is that the directory of "invasion" will be divided into anti-terrorism invasion, hostage rescue invasion... And so on.

Zhuxia is a more implicit nation. Even if it is domineering, it will be quite implicit. For example, the Western Han Dynasty named "Daxia" for distant countries, which means that the same robes must be re accepted into the big family. Of course, the place where the Han Army passes through is to "share the holy grace". That process has been invading all the time.

After the Western Han Dynasty, a new pattern was played, which was to create a tributary system on the basis of the Western Han Dynasty. The Central Plains Dynasty conferred the official position of national king or tribal leader of a place, indicating that the country and tribe had entered the Zhuxia system. Then they all belong to the same banner. No matter what happens, it is "family affairs". Even if it is to destroy a country or tribe, it is also to deal with housework. No one should talk about the housework of Zhuxia.

What if a country or tribe is unwilling to accept official titles? Of course, the emperor and the common people will feel that those guys are too stubborn and should be completely eliminated from the body to the spirit.

Liu Yan also pays attention to the compromise strategy internally, and has never planned to hide anything externally. He has such a mentality and idea, and he is really paying for it. He is like this, and the people below will save the consumption of brain cells. They don't have to find any names for war after war. Whoever they want to do anyway, they must do it directly. If they die, they will think about why they did it at the beginning.

"Of course, you can't show your attitude directly." Fan Jin smiled happily: "the illusion of hope that should be given is still necessary."

The Han people need to lead the way in the western regions. In many aspects, they also need all kinds of cooperation from the western regions. Even if they want to kill, rob and capture light, they also need to take steps.

"How to use Shanshan people is presided over by you." Li Kuangcai didn't want to spend his energy on those complicated things. He hesitated and said, "pay attention... HMM..." he didn't say anything later.

What Fan Jin understands is nothing more than to pay attention to face. There will never be any promise in words. It should be tricked, but it still needs to be tricked. He went out of the army account and asked "who is varug". When he got a response, he waved and left with people.

When chizheru stood outside the account, he didn't even dare to move. He kept standing still for nearly an hour. He watched as varug was taken away by a scribe and kept looking at the closed curtain with complex eyes. There was both expectation and anxiety.

The 5000 Western allied troops brought by Luo Xia did not seriously compete with the Han Army, leaving the vast majority, but less than 1000 people broke through.

Behind chizhelu, he saw the Han Army handling the battlefield with his own eyes, and also saw that the Han Army converged and died in battle. There is no intuitive impression of how many people in the western regions died. There will never be more than 100 bodies converged by the Han army.

The defeat of the coalition is naturally due to the credit of chizheru brigands and Shanshan people, but chizheru really doesn't think he has much credit. He later found out some news that the Weili people were defeated in the first war, and the Shule people only insisted on a round of charge. The SUD people didn't even escape directly. The Kucha people and the Di people fled late and were pursued all the way. The rest of the horse thieves were simply fighting against the enemy.

The defeat of the Allied forces was too miserable and embarrassing. Chizhelu had enough knowledge. Even if they didn't rebel, the Han Army spent more effort at most. There was no suspense about the victory or defeat of the war. How dare you boast?

"Go in."

"Ah?"

"Lang will call, go in!"

"OK... No, yes, no!"

Of course chizheru was nervous. After standing for a long time, his legs became numb, and his walking posture was very strange. He didn't dare to look up when he got in. After walking a few steps, he knelt down and fell on the ground motionless.

"You said your name was Liu Bo?" Li Kuang was dealing with his official business. He didn't stop writing and didn't raise his head: "is Bo a ranking or a name at home?"

Chizhelu does have another name called Liu Bo, but it hasn't been used for a long time. He first stood up and bowed down again. He replied respectfully, "the eldest child in a small family is the Han family."

That "Bo" is the ranking, not the name.

In addition, Li Kuang asked very professionally. He asked "name" but didn't say "name". Just because now when you ask a person's name, if you use "name", you are asking "name" and "characters". The respondent should not only answer "name" but also introduce his own "characters".

Li Kuang looked up at chizheru. What he saw was chizheru's curly hair. When he looked up, he saw a face that was not different from the Han people. It was rough and had a lot of beard at the same time.

"The villain's grandfather is Han." Chizheru said respectfully, "Grandpa was a member of the army."

Grandfather? That was at least a hundred years ago. It should be the period of the coexistence of the Three Kingdoms. If you can go out of Northern Xinjiang, there will be nothing else except Cao Wei. At that time, no one dared to say that they were not Han people, whether it was Cao Wei, Shu Han or Eastern Wu. No matter which country's army went out to fight, foreign nationalities were also regarded as Han troops.

"As a Han, stand up." Li Kuang rarely smiled. He didn't pay attention to going to check, but he couldn't find it at all: "you speak Chinese very well. You have a Xiliang accent. Did you grow up in Xiliang since childhood?"

Chi zhelucai dared not hide that Chinese was indeed learned from Xiliang people, but he didn't grow up in Xiliang. He is a person who has no fixed residence. He speaks Chinese with a Xiliang accent. There are many Xiliang people in the horse thief team... Or should be said to be from the Liang state of Zhang.

"Oh..." Li Kuang said to a man next to him, "since there are northwest people in that team, let someone check it. If you have meritorious deeds, record it."

Chizheru was obviously stunned. He was stunned before turning around. He wanted to understand what was going on. He didn't dare to stop the Han army from annexing his horse thief group. He was very envious that those people from the northwest should be counted as meritorious.

"The Han Dynasty recovered the western regions. People with aspirations and talents are welcome to serve." Regardless of what Chi zhelu was thinking, Li Kuangcai asked, "since you have been running to the western regions all year round, you naturally know the terrain and mountains. Since you are a descendant of the Han family, are you willing to work for the country?"

"Yes, villains will!" Chizhelu... Er, no, in the future, there will be only uncle Liu, not chizhelu. He bowed down again, full of joy: "serve the son of heaven and volunteer for villains all his life. I'm willing to go to hell!"

Li Kuang nodded with a smile and waved Liu Bo out. When Liu Bo came to the curtain, he said, "it's not only the son of the Han family, but also to record military achievements."

Uncle Liu stopped, turned around and saluted Li Kuang. He was full of gratitude and thanks, and then went out.

Li Kuang looked at the disappearance of Liu Bo's figure before he moved his eyes to the case table again. In fact, he doesn't care whether Liu Bo has Chinese ancestry. First, he cares about Liu Bo's understanding of the western regions, and then Liu Bo's fluent Chinese. It's very necessary to recruit similar people. The least thing is that he can use even looking for water.

Han is not a country that divides ethnic groups by blood. If we really want to do that, how to confirm the blood lineage is a big problem. We don't even have a basis for how to identify. We can only look at the general appearance and then integrate culture.

"Integration or integration..." Li Kuang wrote and looked at the top of the account: "as long as they don't look so strange, they all belong to the objects that can be integrated. It's enough for those ethnic groups that look different from the Han people."

At present, even if the Han people want to pull cannon fodder, not everyone can be cannon fodde
