Luhmaru Jiduo's head fell to the ground. When the headless corpse gushed blood spring on its neck and fell down, all Jiduo people were stunned.
Wait for Ma Bin to walk over and lift luhmaru Senduo's head, the Senduo people at the scene still couldn't react.
The expression on the faces of these princes, nobles and officials sent to Dora was very wonderful, incomprehensible and incredible... Almost all of them were ignorant.
"You, you!" Musadiro Jiduo wanted to attack, but when he pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, he heard Ma Bin read luhemalu The charge of sending too much. He knows luhmaru One of the people who sent many plans opposed that: "
No matter what the real intention of the Han Empire towards jidoro, the Han Empire did send troops to rescue Peshawar.
The Han army not only came, but also did not sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight until the Sasan siege side showed a decline or Peshawar fell, and then launched an attack.
In any way, the Han Army showed a genuine side.
Luhmaru How much? Standing in his capacity as the Lord of jidoro, there was nothing wrong with him. He just wanted to ensure the authority of the Lord and retain the influence of the Jiduo royal family.
To speak of luhmaru What's wrong with sending more is that he doesn't recognize the reality at all, and sending more is really too weak.
At the same time, luhmaru Jiduo thought too simply about the Han Empire. He didn't know that the Han troops who went abroad, whether the former Han Dynasty or the current Han Empire, killed hundreds or dozens of kings.
For the military leaders of the Han Empire, just a crime of disrespect for the Han Empire is enough, and there is no need to have any real evidence.
"No respect for the king, no piety to serve the son of heaven!" Ma Bin will also luhmaru Jiduo's head was held high, and he didn't mind that the dripping blood splashed on his boots and trouser legs: "he really didn't know the number of days to incite the army and people to be hostile to the king of the Han Dynasty. His death was stupid!"
Now the Han army went up to Li Tan and down to an ordinary taxi soldier. No one had any special emotional fluctuations.
In their view, isn't it just killing a country Lord? When the Han Empire wiped out the western regions, there were dozens of similar masters killed. What's special about jidoro, or what surprises them by killing him in public?
The Han Army on the side of the Palace Square just surrounded the princes, nobles and officials of jidoro in an instant and disarmed the soldiers of jidoro, but they were also killed directly in case of resistance. It's really not too noisy.
In the city wall and other places, these places do not know what happened on the other side of the Palace Square. However, the Han troops in these places have long been on alert. Once there is a change, they can fight back without asking for instructions.
"Musadiro." Ma Bin went to musadiro Send more than three meters in front, said with a smile: "you are Uncle Wang, can you have a candidate for the successor to the throne?"
Musadiro Jiduo is actually shocked and angry, that is, luhmaru You should die if you send more than a thousand, but luhmaru After all, Jiduo is the head of a country, or a country that has won great popularity and loved by the nobility. How can the Han people say to kill it?
"..." musadiro Jiduo thought that the Han army would slaughter princes, nobles and officials in order to destroy Jiduo. He has made up his mind to resist violently. When Ma Bin asked him when he was about to start, he couldn't respond in an instant: "this..."
"The crime of luhmaru is a private crime." Ma Bin didn't look like Yan Huan. On the contrary, he said very seriously, "I'm actually for the good of your country. With the strength of a big man, I won't tolerate a sinister Lord, especially the Lord, who incited his people to be hostile to a big man. He died, jiduoluo survived. He lived... Jiduoluo was destroyed by a big man one day. This truth doesn't need to be said more."
"Immortal country?" Musadiro Jiduo still holds the handle of the knife, but he is no longer so desperate. He kept changing his face, took a deep breath several times to calm himself down and said, "the master of the country chose... I'm afraid it can't be the son of the former master?"
"I don't care." Ma Bin really didn't want to take care of it: "you'd better discuss on your own. You'd better propose more candidates for the holy decision."
The Han army was still sitting in a circle, but it did not prevent the princes, nobles and officials of the sendoro side from coming together to discuss.
Ma Bin didn't lose luhmaru He even asked people to send cloth that could be wrapped. Later, he would carry out necessary treatment, such as spraying lime for corrosion prevention, and then send someone to jilongpo.
"These barbarians will not wake up until they lose their heads." Li Tan had no mood swings from beginning to end. He personally killed three kings in the western regions. The leader of a small country had long been tired of killing. He had not killed a large general. He felt happy: "killing only one person is a waste."
Before that, Li Tan had sent troops to let some Han troops enter the palace. It didn't matter whether it would cause any bleeding or not. To control, we should control a country's "brain" tightly.
There was no military order to rob, but the Han army could not rob. That's why Li Tan said waste.
"This small country... Is very poor." Ma Bin saw with his own eyes: "the so-called Treasury, a few boxes of gold coins and jewelry, in addition to weapons and armor."
Li Tan tilted his mouth, and an unhappy expression appeared on his face.
It's not how greedy Li Tan, who is a lieutenant general of the Han Empire, is that the Han Army pays attention to expenditure and income. Military operations with no income but expenditure are at a loss. In recent years, the Han Army has not fought a war at a loss for a long time, even if there is no oil, it has to scrape three feet of the ground to get some oil and water out.
The income of the army is not completely swallowed by itself. It is the soldiers who get 40% and 60% of their income. The army can leave 10% of those profits, and the remaining 50% will be turned over to the state treasury.
In some ways, the reputation of the Han Empire is so bad that the military must carry 67 / 10 of them!
However, the emperor doesn't care about the country's reputation. He wants material benefits.
The army has received tangible benefits. It is full of enthusiasm in opening up to the outside world and maintains strong combat effectiveness.
The military is composed of people. Those soldiers basically have relatives. The property sent back is obtained by their relatives, and their relatives will spend it again.
In this way, not only the military families make profits, but also the consumption of military families stimulates the local economy. When the economy is stimulated, people are attracted to put into production. With transactions, the country can collect taxes.
Precious metals have such a cycle. It can be said that not one or two groups will benefit. Who will complain if they do not benefit.
If the army captured livestock such as horses, cattle and sheep, it would actually reduce the price of livestock in the Han Empire and make meat less extravagant.
Like the battle of Hetao and the war of Hexi in the Western Han Dynasty, almost all people in Guanzhong benefited. Similar things continue to happen to the Han Empire. Knowing that foreign wars have dividends, either interests are damaged, or brains are bad, or what are you doing against the war?
Location: Longji slope.
Xie'an received the war report on the third day after the results appeared in Peshawar.
Kill a lord? Xie an just glanced at it and didn't have any idea about it. He would kill anyway. Luhmaru was also mentioned in the report It's a dereliction of duty to send more as if the people over there didn't kill them.
The camp on the side of jilongpo is in the state of being cleaned up, and it seems that the number of troops stationed is not too much.
Among the follow-up troops from the mainland, two standing armies have been built under the command of the shogunate of the western expedition. At the same time, they have brought 40000 County soldiers and nearly 100000 people from the western regions.
To the north of jilongpo, that is, the partial division led by Dou a, they made a move to fight with the Yulin army at about the same time, but they threw themselves into the air after entering the Xigao car.
Of course, the Han Army knew that xigaoche was migrating across the country, but before, the main force of xigaoche remained in China and chose to station on the edge of the desert, looking like waiting for the Han Army to fight.
The Han Army in doua didn't rush up immediately because it had to pass through the desert and was not ready. Once it was killed, even if it won, it would suffer heavy losses.
The withdrawal of the main force of Xigao car still did not escape the eyes of the Han Army scouts. The reason why doua caught up was nothing more than an act of seizing land.
There was no garrison left along doua. It was the main force pursuing xigaoche after entering xigaoche. If it could catch up, it would be a big war. If it could not catch up, it would be regarded as a transit detour against sassanne, and cooperate with the main force of the shogunate to invade sassanne from another direction.
At the same time, the Yulin army has entered a state of war with the main force of sassanne, that is, the number of Yulin army is only one quarter of the main force of sassanne. The camp construction of sassanne's main force is not like Peshawar. There is no possibility of breakthrough in a short time, but it has entered a stalemate stage.
Not counting serving in the army, xie'an's total military strength has reached 170000. There are five standing armies alone, including the Yulin army, but there are three standing armies.
The Han Empire has not dispatched more than three standing armies for many years. It is generally mobilized and set out at the level of "division". Only two standing armies have been dispatched to fight the first power in the A3 continent.
It can be said that the Han Empire still paid great attention to sassanne, a country at the imperial level, and dispatched five standing armies on its first March after the war.
"General." Wang Quan smiled and said, "did general Huan scare Sasan when he landed from the coast of Sasan?"
According to the information from the shogunate of the western expedition, sassanne was supposed to assemble at least 500000 troops. First, no matter how many elite the 500000 troops are, it is exaggerated to listen to the number of 500000 alone.
If it's other countries, xie'an will think it's nonsense after receiving information, but there's nothing surprising about Sasan.
Persians have their own historical background in playing with violent soldiers. It is said that they could assemble an army of 60000 or 700000 in the Darius era hundreds of years ago. There is no reason to go back the more they live.
What Xie an knows is that the 200000 Sassanian army originally transferred to the eastern battlefield has been temporarily taken to the coast. It can be seen how much Shapur II attaches importance to the expedition fleet commanded by Huan Wen.
"General Huan's mission is to attack Rome from a distance, and attacking Sasan is just training." Xie AI shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "our attack on Sasan is not to destroy the country at once, but to destroy more troops in Sasan. What general Huan did..."
The Han Empire is strong, and Sassanian may not be weak. The Han army can win against Sassanian army, but it can destroy the vast Sassanian at one time. Even the most arrogant Han people don't have that confidence.
The war between empires cannot be a war that will lead to the final victory or defeat. In fact, it is a confrontation again and again. It not only destroys the other party's army and effective strength as much as possible, but also consumes the other party's national strength.
How long did Rome fight pattia? How many more battles can be defined as annihilation? According to the complete statistics of the soldiers lost on the battlefield by both sides, the total is definitely more than 3 million.
Then came the civil strife of Parthia, and then the national strength was really difficult to support the continued war. It happened that Rome met an Augustus who did not consider the hidden dangers of rapid military expansion. Otherwise, even if Parthia had no money, if Rome came step by step, the result of the war would not appear so soon.
"The center has long cared." Xie an doesn't mind revealing: "the war between the Han Dynasty and sassanne will probably be a way of encroachment in the first ten years, and there is no idea of killing sassanne."
The Han Empire can't afford to destroy sassanne at one time. It's not any other pressure. Sassanne is also a vast empire with a population of 70 or 80 million, that is, to destroy sassanne's military power at one time and break through the whole territory of sassanne. Then it's over?
It will never be that easy! It can even be said that the real beginning of the difficulty is after the disintegration of aldasher's rule over sassanne.
"The Han nationality is too far away from Sasan..." Xie an's expression became slightly strange: "even without the burden and loss of grain transportation, the difficulties in other aspects are not small."
There will be casualties in war, and the source of troops must be replenished.
War will also lead to equipment consumption, which is also transported from the mainland.
So road construction has become a necessary thing. The key is that even if it takes more than 2000 miles from the local Anxi capital guard house to jilongpo, it means that it takes more than 2000 miles to build only one military channel.
More importantly, there are many aspects. For one thing, it is impossible for the Han Empire to levy corvee and let the number of Han people come thousands of miles to build roads. For the other hand, it needs tools and materials to build roads.
In this way, even if the shogunate of the western expedition can catch prisoners of war and become a labor force for road construction, will the materials still have to be transported?
Think about the importance of military channels, and then stroke through various difficulties. It is not difficult to guess why the center has formulated a war plan for the preparation period of the first decade.
