Chapter 1237 Planting the Roots
Li Shun's mission has left the body poisoning.
With the identity of the mission group, the large amount of gold, silver and treasures and one hundred war horses he took away in Shaqi City, the mission group relied on wealth and goods to pass the test and successfully arrived at the Shinpox City, the city of Huashi, and then paid a visit to the sixth king of the Peacock Empire, Shari Saika.
The Mauryan Dynasty was founded by King Moongu. It reached its peak during the Ashoka era, and its control territory expanded to exceed the entire India in later generations.
King Ashoka practiced Buddhism and converted to Buddhism and became a monk after he was old. After King Ashoka died, the huge empire he created began to fall apart, and the states in the south and the north began to become independent. Now the ruling territory of the Mauryan Dynasty is actually less than one-third of the Ashoka period.
More than a dozen states and provinces such as Bengerard and Fulosha in the north were about to break away from their jurisdiction, and the same was true in the south, with kingdoms such as Yum and Sunga in succession. Moreover, these states began to vigorously abolish Buddhism and abolish the laws left by Ashoka. Brahminism and Jainism gradually flourished, and Buddhism was declining. In fact, the current state of Sonbu no longer believes in Buddhism, but advocates Jainism.
Although he was a mess in the country, in the face of the mission from the Qin Empire, King Sharichuga warmly received the mission, accepted the mission's blood and blood, a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry offered by the mission, as well as some enamel tea tanks and military water bottles carried by the mission, at the request of Li Shun, Sharichuga arranged for the envoy to take ten elephants and more than two hundred soldiers to follow Li Shun and others to find a way to the Qin Dynasty. At this point, the Li Shun delegation embarked on a difficult journey to return to the Qin Dynasty in the humid, hot and almost dark primeval forests and mountain valleys.
Li Shun's mission left silently, but the seemingly inconspicuous mission of the Eastern Qin Kingdom this time caused chaos in Central and Western Asia.
The mission abducted the fiancée Princess Asia, the fiancee of Antioch III. In addition, the Great Yuezhi suddenly went south and swept almost the entire Central Asia, attacked Kangju, defeated Dayuan, and conquered Daxia. It rushed like a group of wolves breaking into the sheep pen. It completely changed the pattern of the entire Central Asia in just a few months.
Although the Daxia people were destroyed, they went south to capture the two states of Sindu. In order to survive, they were still expanding to many countries around them. By the end of July, the Daxia had already captured the four small states of Sindu, occupying most of the Indus River basin, and even began to prepare for attacking Banguilard, the largest state in the northwest.
The people of Daxia who could not defeat the Dayuezhi decided to start to recover the country, but the target of revenge was a small country where grandmothers in the northwest did not love their uncles.
Therefore, under the pressure of Daxia, the small states of Zhendu were crying but could only endure the cost of the country's destruction and family's destruction, which also caused the Sinodu and the major states of the southeast to become turbulent.
Shortly after the founding of the Great Yuezhi Kingdom, the Emperor Antiao-III of the Anxu Empire personally led 30,000 troops from Dayuan to attack the Great Yuezhi. In half a month, seven or eight cities were sent to the Dayuezhi five tribal leaders, and the subordinates of King Xiumi, who was in charge of the western province of the Great Yuezhi Kingdom, were almost killed or injured. He fled to the Lanshi City with less than two thousand defeated generals to ask for help from the Great Yuezhi King Bi Kun. In shock and anger, Bi Kun had to quickly summon a large number of slave soldiers and soldiers from various tribes to start a head-on confrontation with the Anxu army.
If he could not stop the anger of revenge of the Anshen people, the land they had occupied for thousands of miles would change their hands. Their Dayue clans would be completely massacred and there would be no chance to make a comeback from now on.
In the situation of life and death, Bi Kun had no choice but to order all tribes to fight the Anxi people to the end without hesitation. All men who could still pick up weapons from the Dayue tribes participated in the battle, with more than 30,000 people, plus nearly 30,000 slave soldiers temporarily formed, the two sides fought repeatedly in the once peaceful and peaceful Daxia territory.
This bloody battle lasted for a month, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. Faced with unaccustomed city attacks and defenses, the fierce battle caused two Shehous, the Great Yuezhi, to be killed. Nearly ten tribes of all sizes were exterminated, with more than 15,000 casualties, and nearly 20,000 slave soldiers. The Absolutes who came from afar were almost at a loss. Antioch brought 20,000 elite soldiers from the royal city and traveled to Margiana.
More than half of the 10,000 soldiers temporarily convened by the province were also lost, and all the bows, arrows and weapons were exhausted. As Antioch III was about to draw troops from nearby provinces again to replenish their military equipment, just as he died in one go, and the Dayuezhi was completely included in the rest area, the capital suddenly heard the emergency news that Moron, the governor of the Western Mid-de Province, was rebelled. Faced with the domestic crisis, Antioch III had to withdraw his troops in a rage.
To fight against foreign countries, we must first settle the internal situation. This is an eternal iron rule.
Medes is the gateway to the West of the Silence Empire. Once Medes loses control, Ahri's plan to plot against Asia Minor in the future will suffer major setbacks. If Moron surrenders to the Seleucid Kingdom, Ahri, which has just begun to rise, will be under tremendous pressure.
Looking at the retreating army of Anxue and the piles of corpses left behind, the Great Yuezhi King Bi Kun cried heartbrokenly while being grateful.
At this point in the battle, there were only a few thousands of warriors and tens of thousands of real Yuezhi people he brought out after the defection from Yuezhi. The so-called Yuezhi are actually nomadic tribes of different races conquered along the way, and there were also a large number of alien women who were plundered along the way. The name Yuezhi has actually almost died in name only.
The leader of the Yuezhi tribe who defected with him died in battle this time, including the King Xiumi who he relied most, and the Hou of She who guarded the Anxi border for him.
The strength of Maodun in this battle was most completely preserved because he was enfeoffed near the direction of the Son-Doven and was thousands of miles away from the Lan family city. Originally, Bi Kun's idea was to let him serve as a buffer between the Great Yuezhi and the Son-Doven, so as to preserve the strength of the real Yuezhi people.
There is also a Kashmir Plateau and a big river between Gao Fu and Lan's city. The only passage is the Khyber Pass, which is the only smooth passage from Central Asia to West Asia to the South Asian subcontinent. It is a bit like the Hexi Corridor from the Central Plains to the Western Regions. Its geographical location is very important. As long as troops are sent to block this pass, it can basically cut off the connection between Central Asia and Shindu and other places.
This is also an obvious trick for the Great Yuezhi King to beware of Bi Kun.
After hearing that Anxi invaded the Great Yuezhi, Maodun sent troops very slowly. He knew that Anxi was very powerful, and he knew that with the current strength of the Great Yuezhi, he could not completely fight against the Anxi people. He also knew that Bi Kun would definitely fight to the death for the survival of the Yuezhi tribe. Although the Great Yuezhi could not defeat the Qin army, according to the battles for several consecutive months, the combat effectiveness of the Western countries was not at the same level as that of the Qin army. Bi Kun still had a great chance to win, of course, it would definitely be a miserable victory.
This is actually the ending Maodun hopes to see.
He now has 30,000 tribes. Although he is not as strong as a soldier, as long as Bi Kun's strength is reduced, he will have the opportunity to replace him in the future and finally take all the Dayuezhi into his hands.
Therefore, when Maodun summoned the tribe to slowly cross the plateau and appeared near the Lan Clan City, the war had come to an end. After Maodun commanded the tribe to participate in two battles, Antioch III quickly retreated, leaving only the crying and howling sounds of the Great Yuezhi Kingdom and countless Great Yuezhi people who had lost their relatives.
In the next time, the Great Yuezhi will be under great pressure. As long as the news of this heavy casualty war between them and Anxi spreads, Dayuan in the north, Daxia in the south, and Anxi, which is already in power, will inevitably suppress the Great Yuezhi's living space from three areas, and the Great Yuezhi's future is in danger.
The current dilemma of Dayuezhi is caused by one person, that is Maodun.
If Maodun hadn't robbed Tianma and attacked Cheshi Kingdom, he would not have caused the pursuit of the Qin Dynasty. If Maodun had not requested to attack Dayuan, he would not have had a conflict with Anxi. The Dayuezhi had provoked two strongly rising powers that the entire civilized world could not provoke, and had laid the root of disaster for destruction.
