Chapter 185 Convincing the Fat King
Author: Gongsun Wujiu
Cai Ting did not answer directly, but asked, "Does Kunmo know that Wusun is in danger now?"
Weng Guimi laughed and said, "Why should the Han envoys be alarmist? Although our Wusun is not as good as the Han, the Xiongnu is still a big country with hundreds of thousands of people who can control strings!"
Cai Ting said unhurriedly, "It is the Xiongnu that I am talking about!"
Weng Guimi laughed and said, "The Xiongnu and Wusun are brothers and have been living in peace for decades. How can they be our Wusun's great enemy?"
Cai Ting shook his head and said, "With all due respect, the Xiongnu and Wusun will become mortal enemies sooner or later, and there will definitely be a war within ten years!"
Weng Guimi said, "Everyone said that the Han envoys were arrogant. I didn't believe it before, but now I believe it..."
Cai Ting touched his nose and said, "Aren't you talking big words? Kunmo please listen to the foreign ministers' detailed words..."
Weng Guimi waved his hand and said, "Then let the Han envoy come and listen!"
At this time, Cai Ting stood up and said, "If so, please Kunmo allow the foreign minister to take something!"
Weng Guimi said, "You can get whatever you want."
Cai Ting turned around and clapped her hands, but Liu Yi, who had been waiting outside, walked to the door of the felt tent with something in his hands.
"Wow"!
The Wusun warrior at the door blocked his way.
Cai Ting turned her head and looked at Weng Guimi.
"Let him in!"
Weng Guimi ordered.
The two warriors immediately stepped aside.
Liu Yi entered the account, handed the things into Cai Ting's hands, and immediately turned around and left knowingly.
After Cai Ting waited for Liu Yi to leave, she walked to the table holding the items in her hands.
In order to prevent Weng Guimi from misunderstanding, he also specially selected the cases furthest away from Weng Guimi.
At this time, he opened the items in his hands and spread them out on the tables.
"Map!"
Weng Guimi couldn't stand it anymore and immediately got up and rushed to several cases.
"This is Dragon City...this is Junji Mountain...this is Chigu City...this is the right part of the Xiongnu..."
Weng Guimi quickly identified familiar places on the map.
"The Han Dynasty actually already has a complete map of the Xiongnu and the Western Regions!"
Weng Guimi looked at the map in front of him in disbelief.
In this era, any map is very precious.
Therefore, there is a saying that offering pictures is equivalent to offering soil.
Even Princess Jieyou was moved after seeing the map.
There was even a hint of greed in the corners of Weng Guimi's eyes.
"Messenger, what price does it cost to give this picture to Wusun?"
Cai Ting did not answer directly, but just said, "Kun Mo, don't worry, this picture was originally prepared for Kun Mo..."
Hearing this, Weng Guimi had to hold back his mood for the time being, but he had already made up his mind to get this picture.
Cai Ting naturally guessed what Weng Guimi was thinking, but he didn't care.
"Kunmo, please look!" Cai Ting pointed at the map and said
"When the Xiongnu were in Maodun, Laoshang, and the three generations of military and ministers were Shanyu, the kings on the left lived in the east, facing the Han Dynasty to the east of the Shanggu Valley, and received the dirty raccoon dog, North Korea.
The kings on the right are located in the west, facing the west of Shangjun, controlling Hexi, Jieshi and Qiang. And Shan Yuting is facing Daijun, Yunzhong."
"The current emperor of the Han Dynasty has succeeded to the throne. He is a man of great talent and strategy. He is angry with Emperor Bai Deng. In order to avenge the ninth generation, he recruited the most talented people from all over the world and rushed to the forest to learn battle formations. He appointed Wei Huo as his general and led the army.
The best soldiers in the world fight against the Xiongnu."
"The Battle of Henan, the Battle of Hexi, the Battle of Mobei, the Battle of Longcheng... The Han soldiers pursued them in depth for more than twenty years, and the Huns were repeatedly defeated.
King Xian of the Right, King Xian of the Left, and the Xiongnu Chanyu all suffered heavy losses and were exhausted from hard work, so they had to start migrating. The Chanyu fled far away, and there was no royal court in Monan."
"But now, when the Chan Yu was first established, his mother's family was not upright, and the country was deviant. There was always a fear of attack by Han soldiers, so the Chan Yu court moved to the northwest.
King Zuo Xian was also forced by the Han army and Wuhuan and Xianbei to abandon the eastern grasslands and move westward to the north of Yunzhong where Shan Yuting was at Maodun."
"As for the tribe of King Youxian, they also slowly moved westward. Three years ago, the royal court of King Youxian was already adjacent to Wusun!"
Weng Guimi followed what Cai Ting said, combined with his own knowledge on the map, checked one by one, and found that what Cai Ting said was indeed true.
In the past, when there was no map, I just had a vague feeling. Now I have a look on the map.
Weng Guimi already understood without Cai Ting's explanation.
He stared hard at the map and said, "The Huns are moving westward!"
From the map, he could clearly see that Wusun was already blocking the Xiongnu's westward migration.
At this time, Weng Guimi was no longer as calm and calm as before.
Although Wusun claims to have 180,000 men who can control strings, its actual combat troops are only 90,000.
Among them, he can command and mobilize only 60,000.
The other 30,000 horses are in the hands of Xiao Kunmoni Mi.
Cai Ting knew that her words had moved him as soon as she saw Weng Guimi's face.
He knew that talking too much would lead to mistakes, so he stopped talking.
At this time, the big tent fell into silence, Weng Guimi's face was gloomy, and he was constantly thinking in his mind.
He knew that the words of the Han envoy were often alarmist, but they were definitely on target.
In fact, long before he inherited the position of Kunmo, he had vaguely felt the threat from the Huns.
A few years ago, King Youxian even moved the royal court to the grassland in the northeast of Tianshan Mountain.
Four years ago, the Han Dynasty sent General Li Guangli of the Second Division to conquer for this purpose.
At that time, Wusun was still discussing whether to send troops to assist the Han army.
But in the end, I chose to maintain the status quo.
In the Battle of Tianshan in the second year of Tianhan, although the Han army killed and captured more than 10,000 people, King Youxian's tribe was particularly powerful.
Since last year, more and more Xiongnu kings on the right have entered the vast basin between Jinshan and Tianshan, and Wusun is feeling more and more pressure.
From time to time, various princes would report news that their tribesmen were being harassed by the Xiongnu.
By this year, the three tribes of King Yili, King Huyan, and King Wuchan had gradually approached Wusun’s core pasture of Jiuhe.
Encouraged by King Youxian, the tribes continued to expand westward, and conflicts between herdsmen from both sides over the pastures increased day by day.
"Is it really necessary to form an alliance with the Han army?" Weng Guimi thought for a long time and began to hesitate in his heart.
At this moment, Princess Jieyou, who had been listening quietly by the side, made the crucial blow.
She stood up and said slowly: "Where in this world is there a country that can occupy a place forever?
Let’s just say that the place where Wusun is currently stationed as pastoralist was originally the territory of Sai. Later, the Dayue clan was forced by the Xiongnu and moved westward. The Sai people were forced to move south, and the Dayue clan lived there."
"But just over ten years later, Liejiao Mikunmo followed Shanyu's orders and led the Wusun to defeat the Dayue clan. The Dayue clan moved westward again, to Daxia, and we, the Wusun, took possession of this place...
"
"The Sai people, Dayue clan, and Wusun have all changed their masters three times in the past few decades..."
Princess Jieyou’s words became the last straw that broke the bridge.
Weng Guimi was no longer silent, he slowly raised his head.
"What can the Han envoy bring to Wusun? What does Wusun need to provide to the Han?"
