"Tell me about Shache, how about the two countries of Shule? How far is it from the Kingdom of Khotan?"

The figure above the throne put down the jade cup and leaned against the back of the chair. The momentum in his every move made Yuchi Li'an, the king who had rarely experienced war, feels like he is almost breathless when he kneels on the ground.

"The kingdom of Shache has been around for about 400 miles. The king's name is Suliyta, and he is unruly and evil. He often takes strong troops to attack various countries. The governor comes with the army of the country. He hopes to kill this person and return peace to the Western Regions."

Dian Wei-hwan slapped the table, scaring Yuchi Li'an to shake for a moment, and then the vicious voice seemed to explode in his ears: "Just talk nonsense, just talk about how many people they have, just whether they can accept my great man!"

"I have more than 40,000 soldiers, and I am used to being arrogant. I don't... I am very obedient..."

"Then beat him up!" Dian Wei stood up.

At the top, Gongsun Zhi reached out and pressed him. The giant man stopped talking, sat back, and whispered a few words to Zhang Fei behind him, Gongsun Zhi knelt downward and signaled: "Stop talking."

"Yes, the governor of Shangbang was located in the northwest of Shache, with more than 30,000 households, and about 60,000 to 70,000 people, with 20,000 troops. It was just below the Pamir Mountains, and the capital of the country was Panhua City, and the king Timan. At that time, Ban Dingyuan was stationed in Shule Kingdom. He had just become a powerful Western Region, and the whole country admired many great Han Dynasty."

"What are the two countries now?"

"Last month, Shache Kingdom was still attacking Shule, and it should be fighting now. I heard that Suliyaphi personally led 20,000 troops to attack, and Kucha also sent troops to help." Yuchi Li'an did not dare to look up and still knelt there, and then he heard words ringing above.

"It seems that everything is almost clear."

In fact, when he came to the Western Regions from afar, his eyes were basically dark. Gongsun Zhi also read several documents about the Western Regions on the road and talked with Ma Chao about some information that the other party knew. For example, several small countries in the Pamirs, the specific situation was not clear at all, so why did he leave the life of the King of Tian.

Gongsun Zhi stood up and walked to Yuchi Li'an. The latter raised his gaze. Only after contacting him at such a close distance did he feel the oppression brought to him by the other party's tall body. Under the shadow of the backlight, the outline of his face was revealed, and the voice sank fell, "You have done a good job so far, so let's keep your head on your neck for the time being."

The King of Khotan below finally breathed a sigh of relief, Gongsun Zhi turned around and walked around with a clang of armor and clanging sounds in everyone's sight: "Since the Kingdom of Khotan surrenders, I am a subsidiary of the Han Dynasty. I will temporarily order you on behalf of the Protectorate to draw 5,000 people from the Kingdom of Khotan into the Western Expedition Army's supplies camp to assist, and in addition..."

He walked back to the throne and turned around suddenly. The lights on the table were swaying, and the sound was also raised at this time: "It's all."

Below, more than ten generals slammed and stood up from the seat. Pan Feng quickly put down half of the lamb leg, wiped his greasy lips, and then stood up. He looked at the lord in white velvet armor in front of the throne with a solemn look. When his majestic gaze swept over, he closed his stomach and stood straight in the crowd.

"The caravan behind will not wait. The fighter planes are fleeting, so let them walk slowly behind them, but the back battalion of the baggage must follow. Tomorrow morning, I will immediately pull the battalion westward. In addition, I will send my order to let the three cavalrymen such as the sacred man go directly around the city of Shache Kingdom and directly attack the back of the Suliyapoxi army. In two days, I will see someone's head hanging on the flagpole."

"yes!"

"Go down and prepare"

The generals of the army walked out of the King's Hall one after another, and the galaxy outside was already shining. After some of the tone for going west was implemented, there was no need to continue to stay in the city. They discussed the strange countries west of the Pamir Mountains with their familiar companions, gradually dispersing, and then rode their horses to the military camp outside the city.

Lu Bu and Gongsun Zhi discussed with him in the palace for a while, and came out with the other party just now. The girl who had been waiting for a long time was not in awe of the legendary White Wolf King. After all, her father was also very powerful. After parting outside the palace, Lu Lingqi turned over and said, "Dad, is there another war?"

"I still say the same for my father. This kind of war is not worthy of us going up in person."

"Dad... I heard my daughter outside just now. A name called Po Xi, it seemed..." On the horse's back, the girl pinched her fist and raised her father's sideways. Before she could finish her excited words, the sound of horse hooves in the back approached. Among the cavalry, a burly figure holding a snake spear turned around and muttered: "Daughter should stay at home and be a woman's business. The battlefield is a man's business."

In the darkness here, Subai's palm suddenly slammed the reins, the sound of horse hooves suddenly stopped, and her pretty face was slightly cold: "Ring-eyed thief! Say it again!"

"I said women should..."

"presumptuous"

A loud shout trembled the streets, and the lights that were already on in the houses were blown out quickly. The whole street was completely dim, and only a few torches were clearly extinguished in the wind. After a expressionless face, Lu Bu carried the halberd towards the other party, and even the figure of the mount was lengthened in the flames.

Several Cao generals on the opposite side stood up, all from military backgrounds and had killed people. They were naturally sensitive to murderous aura, but Zhang Fei was not afraid of the murderous aura and prompted the horse to greet the other party, with a voice in his mouth: "The family of the three surnames..."

However, when he said something, he suddenly thought of something, swallowed it back, stared at Lu Bu and looked straight at him: "... I almost scolded you. Governor Gongsun said that the army should not be disturbed, otherwise he would be beheaded and displayed for the public. Forget it this time." He waved his hands several times, turned his horse head and went to the city gate.

"Zhang Fei!"

After riding a dark horse, Lu Bu's voice came from behind. He pulled his horse and turned slightly: "What else? If you want to hit us, find a place where there is no one!"

The tip of the halberd was hanging on the ground, and the flower robe was stroking in the wind. The swaying fire light shone on Lu Bu's face and was silent for a while. It did not burst out like before. The murderous aura of the previous one was restrained, but he just looked at the other party calmly and then spoke.

"...... A family did do many things in the past, which made people look down on them. When someone exposed their wounds, they would be furious and murdered. Over the years, they always think about the past, and even I feel that the wrong things I did back then were ridiculous. If it weren't for Gongsun Zhi, a family would have no time to have the leisure to reflect on themselves in a few years and walk a new path. If you, Zhang Yide, still think about the battle at the Sishui Pass, decide the best and the worst, and wait for the war to settle down, I will wait for you."

In front, Zhang Fei looked at Lu Bu silently, his expression seemed strange and complicated. He hesitated for a moment: "...Okay! When the Western Expedition is over, I will fight with you again in front of the Sishui Pass, regardless of life or death, only about winning or losing." This time, he raised his hands and said.

"Goodbye!"

As if he didn't want to be watched like this, Zhang Fei whipped it: "Go!" He left with several Cao cavalry, and Lu Bu bowed. When the other party disappeared into the darkness, the girl next to him couldn't help but want to speak, and the father there laughed.

"If you marching and fighting, you will be unable to touch the head. If you marching and fighting, you will be defeated without fighting. Lingqi, you must learn something. The general is just a weapon that is being wielded. The commander of the army is the one who wielded the weapon."

Lu Lingqi widened her eyes and opened her mouth slightly.

The stimulating tiger, holding the halberd and riding a war horse, took a few steps. He stopped halfway, turned his mighty body and showed a kind smile to his daughter, and stretched out his arms.

"Lingqi, people need to learn to grow. Now is your best opportunity to keep up."

Deep in my memory, it seemed like I had returned to Bingzhou. The sunset was setting in the field. The young father said when he carried his young daughter on the horse's back. Lu Lingqi wiped her wet red eyes, nodded vigorously, rushed to her father with a horse's belly, and walked side by side.

"Dad, my daughter has grown up." She said softly.

...

In the King of Khotan Palace, Gongsun Zhi stood under the eaves, looking at the father and daughter's departure, and he also remembered his wife and children far away in Shanggu County, but when he stood in this position, there were always some choices.

Behind him, there was a sound of jingling iron chains sounded, and he approached. Above his tattered steps, a figure with iron chains tied to the ankle came from the side room where Yuchi Li'an was waiting before to the figure standing with his hands behind his back. The hoarse sound ran out of his throat.

"Xu…. I've seen the governor."

"Wenhe is resourceful, I have a question I want to ask you to teach you."

The gray hair drooped on his face in a mess. The old man said, "I dare not." When he looked at Gongsun Zhi outside the King's Palace and turned around, he wanted to find the wolf that was prey. He opened his tone slightly: "I have something to decide. I think you probably heard it in the side room. What should I do?"

Jia Xu's turbid eyes moved slightly, raised his gaze a little, and stared at Gongsun Zhi's instep: "Dayuan guards the Silk Road, which is also the road to return to the Western Expedition. You cannot make mistakes, and you cannot pretend to deal with others... and kill the current King of Dayuan, support the Han people, and send a general to guard it."

"Okay, I will do what you do!"
