4095--Andrew envoys from all walks of life leave one after another
The lack of majestic cities in Wusun territory has a lot to do with Wusun's living habits. Even after Dawan's army invaded Wusun, it was basically impossible to get more benefits from Wusun territory.
possible things.
For this reason, Dawan was often in a passive position when facing Wusun's army. This situation was similar to that between the Han and the Xiongnu. When the Xiongnu was strong, the Han's army was passive when fighting against the Xiongnu.
If the defense wants to go deep into the grassland to fight the Huns, there will be greater risks, and the combat effectiveness of the Han army's cavalry is far behind that of the Huns' cavalry. It was not until the appearance of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that the situation reversed.
Even so, after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu, the Han's national power suffered a lot.
Now the situation of the Jin army is different. At first, Lu Bu attached great importance to the power of cavalry. Now, there are many cavalry in the Jin army. If these cavalry appear on the battlefield, they will become a factor that affects the battlefield.
Powerful.
The rapid maneuverability of the cavalry can make the battle faster and cause more damage to the enemy. After penetrating into the enemy's army, as long as there is sufficient food and grass, it can make the enemy's soldiers panic all day long.
When Dawan dealt with the Wusun people, there was no other way. Putting such a matter in Lu Bu's hands would be different. The Jin army with elite cavalry would make the Wusun people understand why the powerful Xianbei people saw the Jin army.
The reason why the cavalry would flee later.
The Jin army had already proven its capabilities in battle after battle in the past.
At present, the Jin State is stable and the national strength is strong. If the Jin State wants to go to war, the army's generals will not hesitate at all. As the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to raise an army and use it for a while. When the army's generals come on stage, the army will show corresponding combat effectiveness.
Come.
At this time, the Jin army was at its strongest. Lu Bu would try his best to keep the Jin army as strong as possible.
Only when you become stronger can you have more initiative and prevent the enemy from having the idea of attacking.
Just like this time, why the envoys from Wusun and Dawan rushed to Chang'an to form an alliance with Jin was all because of the combat effectiveness of the Jin army. If the Jin army paid a heavy price when it conquered the countries in the Western Regions, it would definitely not cause
Wusun's attention even made Wusun think that the Jin army was nothing more than this.
Wusun also has ideas about the countries in the Western Regions. When they see that the Jin army's combat effectiveness is not enough, they will definitely send troops to Kucha.
However, the Jin army's devastating offensive methods frightened Wusun and Dawan, and also made them realize that only by uniting with Jin could they gain more advantages.
The envoys from all parties tried their best in Chang'an. They wanted to find out more information about the Jin State. It would be better if they could get enough benefits from the Jin State.
After the envoys from all parties went to Chang'an, the most obvious benefit was that they could do business with the Jin State. Their merchants could be protected after arriving in the Jin State, and the Jin State's merchants were not allowed to collect money when doing business in the Western Regions.
In terms of taxes, they are a vassal state of the Jin State. If they collect taxes from Jin merchants, it will be a provocation to the Jin State's majesty.
Although various countries had a lot of reluctance, they still agreed to this article. Who made their current status lower than that of the Jin State? In this case, the status of the merchants of the Jin State was lower than that of the merchants of the Western Regions.
Higher.
After the merchants heard the news, they were naturally overjoyed and rushed to the countries in the Western Regions to do business. They also specially selected those cities that were only dependent on the Jin State. In this way, they could receive a lot of tax exemptions and enjoy such power.
It's still good for businessmen.
Going to the countries in the Western Regions to do business is a relatively cost-effective thing in itself for the merchants of the Jin State. Things owned by the Jin State are extremely popular after arriving in the countries of the Western Regions, and they are much more expensive. This is why businessmen flock to them.
The reason for that.
Many merchants went to Wusun and Dawan to do business. After Wusun formed an alliance with the Jin State, they would definitely not embarrass the Jin merchants. And Dawan was close to the city currently occupied by the Jin army. If they embarrass the Jin merchants, they would still have to worry about the Jin army.
attack.
After Dawan and Wusun will not embarrass the merchants of Jin, it will be more convenient for merchants to go to Kushan. The most valuable thing is to know the news about Kushan.
Even during the Han Dynasty, there was little contact between Kushan and the Han Dynasty. After all, the road was far away, and even if the army of the Han Dynasty wanted to go there, they would probably be unable to do so.
If you want to reach Guishang, the factors of Wusun and Dawan must be overcome, and fighting against Dawan and Wusun will consume a lot of national power.
Even though the Jin Kingdom has now pacified the world, there are still voices of opposition in the court when Lu Bu sends an army to pacify the countries in the Western Regions, let alone attacking the more distant Wusun and Dawan.
However, the opposition of officials in the DPRK cannot affect Lu Bu's decision. To pacify Wusun and Dawan, we must not use ordinary means. Currently, the countries in the Western Regions have a lot of troops. If the elite cavalry of the Jin army can enter the battlefield,
, the war will be more beneficial to the Jin army.
The Jin army will pacify cities one after another at a faster speed. When the officials in the court see the achievements of the Jin army, they will just silently enjoy the joy of victory as they do now.
Lu Bu could understand the opposition of these officials. Besides, it would be abnormal if there was no objection at all to the decision.
Within a month, envoys from all parties left one after another, and it is unclear what kind of gains they had in Chang'an City.
Although Xiang Dalu found out more about the Jin State in Chang'an City, he did not find out how to make the Jin army's weapons. The Jin State controls this matter very strictly. If you ask too much, you may even
will arouse suspicion.
Not only the Wusun people want to get it, but many countries in the Western Regions want to get these weapons. They are worried about the invasion of the Jin army. If they have a certain strength in their hands, they will have greater confidence.
Many of these envoys who inquired about the weapons of the Jin army were arrested by the soldiers. It was a joke that they dared to inquire about the serial ballistas and gunpowder in Chang'an City. They were simply tired of living.
It can be said that Lu Bu had anticipated such a situation. When other princes saw the methods displayed by the Jin army, they also tried their best to get the manufacturing methods of these things from Lu Bu's hands, but their actions
