Chapter 317: Youzhou Mu Lvbu(2/2)

Fan Chou was an old man under Dong Zhuo. When Beigong Yu caused chaos in Liangzhou, he became Dong Zhuo's troops.

This person is very honest, quite strategic, and mature. At that time, Dong Zhuo was afraid that Gongsun Du would dominate the family in Liaodong, so while appointing Gongsun Du as the prefect of Liaodong, he sent Fan Chou to Lelang, saying that it was assistance, but in fact it was surveillance.

Dong Chu didn't know much about Gongsun Du, or he had never heard of it.

For a long time, he even thought that Gongsun Du was Gongsun Zan's kindness, and later he realized that this person was actually his father's subordinate. However, Liaodong was far away from the Western Regions, and Dong Qi did not have the energy to understand this person.

If Gongsun Du and Fan Chou hadn't started a war, Dong Qi might have forgotten these two people.

Zhuge Jin was not very clear about Gongsun Du, but he was able to answer the question that Dong Qi just asked.

"As soon as the Grand Tutor died, Li Guo had no time to take care of Liaodong. The princes of Guandong were in a melee, but Liaodong was also remote, and even Liu Yu could not take care of his development. Gongsun Du was comfortable in Liaodong and naturally did not want anyone to monitor him... So sooner or later, there would be a death fight between Gongsun Du and Fan Chou."

Dong Qi nodded slightly: To put it bluntly, it’s still a dispute over interests!

They are all the father's unit, so Dong Qi said in his heart that he naturally did not want the two to fight privately. If he wanted to distinguish between relatives and alienation, Dong Qi was more inclined to Fan Chou. Unfortunately, he is now in the Western Regions and has no ability to interfere in affairs with Liaodong.

After pondering for a while, Dong Qi said to Zhuge Jin: "Why not write a letter by hand? Please come forward to mediate?"

"This...is hard to say whether it is useful, but you can give it a try."

"Hope it's useful!"

After saying that, Dong Qi breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, he had done everything he should do. As for whether these two people could listen to advice, it would be better to let fate. Thinking of this, he threw the two documents aside and began to turn his attention to the Western Regions.

The current situation in the Western Regions is very complicated!

After Dong Qi conquered Kucha, he made Dayuan and Wusun panic.

Especially Wusun, the Qihuo Army had already invaded Wusun's territory. Facing the Qihuo Army like locusts crossing the border, the Wusun King also felt fear. At the suggestion of Wusun Prime Minister Dalu, he went to the north to Hutu Shanyu in Zhizhi City for help, and formed an alliance with Kangju Kingdom in the west... Kangju, this is another country and nation that Dong Qi had never heard of.

In fact, there are records of Kangju in the Han Book.

It is said that Kangju was a branch of the Huns, and the king was in the city of Beitian. If it is accurately divided, Kangju does not belong to the fifty countries in the Western Regions.

He was once very powerful, and he caused rebellion in the Western Regions several times, and was very hostile to the Han Dynasty.

Dong Qi did not expect that just broke the Five-Nation Alliance, another Three-Nation Alliance popped up, which was a bit unexpected.

The Western Regions had not yet been pacified, and the Northern Xiongnu and Kangju ran out again.

If the Great Yuezhi was added, Dong Qi was shocked to find that there would be a lot of trouble to pacify the Western Regions.

"Yuan Jin, do you see if it is possible to have a long-term relationship with Kangju?"

Regarding the issues in the Western Regions, we must also ask the Western Regions experts.

After listening to Dong Qi's inquiry, Ban Qi pondered for a moment and shook his head gently: "I'm afraid it's unlikely... The national strength of Kangju is not weak. When the ancestors pacified the Western Regions, the country had a population of more than one million and had a control of 200,000. In the past two years, the national strength of the Kushan Kingdom declined, and Kangju might be stronger. The reason why the Dayuezhi wanted to form an alliance with us was probably because of the pressure brought to them by Kangju. From the perspective of attitude, they were closer to the Huns."

"Will this be of no use if you give them enough benefits?"

Ban Jian smiled bitterly and said, "Lord, the Northern Xiongnu king Tingzhi City is on the bank of Du Lai Water. But the Du Lai Water is in the territory of Kangju. When Gan Yanshou and Chen Tang attacked Zhizhi City, Kangju had joined forces with the Xiongnu. To put it bluntly, Kangju and the Northern Xiongnu are one... And Wusun has always had a close relationship with the Northern Xiongnu."

"That means, as long as the Northern Huns send troops, will Kangju definitely send troops?"

Ban Li nodded, "There is no doubt about this."

Kangju has 200,000 string controls, and the Huns also have at least 200,000 string controls, plus Wusun and Dayuan...

Dong Qi couldn't help but take a breath.

He unexpectedly discovered that the enemy was fighting more and more, and now there were as many as one million enemies he had to face.

Ha, this battle is getting bigger and bigger!

Zhuge Jin stood up and said, "Lord, it is not particularly difficult to solve the three-country alliance of Lao Shizi."

Dong Qi asked quickly: "What? Did Ziyu have an idea?"

"If I want to say that the focus of solving the Three Kingdoms Alliance is not on Wusun, nor on the Northern Xiongnu, nor on the Laoshizi Kangju."

"How do you say this?"

"Wusun can find helpers, but we actually have them... lord, I think it's time to let the Great Yuezhi King do its part. When we attacked Kucha, they moved their troops, but did not take any actual actions. Now, we must let the Great Yuezhi get in, and the key is when to capture Dayuan."

At this time, Dong Qi had already understood what Zhuge Jin meant.

Capture Dayuan, join forces with Dayuezhi to restrain Kangju, then drag down the soldiers of the Northern Huns, and then kill the Wusun!

It sounds like, it's a good plan.

Dong Qi remembered a war movie he watched in his previous life, called the Great Decisive Battle.

There is a saying in it: Eat one, grab one, stare at one...

If you turn this sentence into the Western Regions: it is to eat Dayuan, clamp Wusun, stare at the Northern Xiongnu, and guard against Kangju.

But in this way, I am afraid that the power of the entire Western Regions will be mobilized!

And if there is a flaw in one link, then Dong Qi will face a more terrifying crisis than Dong Zhuo's death.

Close your eyes, Dong Qi said nothing, just thought quietly.

No one spoke in the hall, and everyone understood Zhuge Jin's plan. To put it bluntly, it was a gambling.

If he wins, Dong Qi can not only occupy the entire Western Regions, but also plant the Han army flag on the territory outside the territory.

But once it fails, not only will it not be able to get Dayuan and Wusun, but Dong Qi will even face the danger of spitting out Shuxian and Han'an City. This is by no means a small problem. In fact, it is also related to the future development of the entire Western Regions.

Dong Qi can't lose, nor can he afford to lose!

Note: Wei You - Liu Yu's Eastern Cao official. First Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan were in harmony. Later, Yu was Hu Yi, and several times asked Zan to meet him, saying that he would not go. At that time, he was defeated. Yu wanted to attack him, so he told him that the Eastern Cao official was Youbeiping Wei You. You said: "Today, he led the way and took Gong as his return. The counselors and ministers must be trusted. Zan's civil and military talents are strong and capable. Even if there are minor evils, he should tolerate it." Yu stopped.
