Chapter 687 Aftermath

In late autumn and early winter, after various news from the northwest confirmed the identity of the army, the original war sank.

The southern route of the Western Regions was completely flattened, and the news that the Western Expedition Army entered Yumen Pass spread to various places, which made the Han prefectures and counties prosperous in the Han Dynasty. The passionate Wenke gathered at the gathering of the Western Expedition Army that was inspiring, praising the prestige of the Han people and wrote various poems, which caused a sensation in the area.

The aristocratic caravans, who were trapped in the chaos in Central Asia, have returned to various families one after another since Yumen Pass, and wrote down their experiences in the battle. They were able to survive the death. The senses of the wolf king were now different. After returning, the Mediterranean and Central Asia were vividly told in their mouths. Lightning attacked Anxi in early winter, slashing waves and killing the capital of Anxi, scaring their emperor to escape overnight, and their whereabouts are still unknown. The Qin Emperor Severu, 200,000 troops were deployed in the Western Expedition Army, and finally they were cleverly resolved by Governor Gongsun. He cut off one arm of the other party in the battle formation... Word of mouth, it added fuel and fire to evolve into various fascinating deeds, and even brought a little mythical color.

Various rumors for a time have wiped out the confusion and uneasiness brought by the civil war for four years. With such a powerful Western Expedition Army guarding the northern gateway, many people finally breathed a sigh of relief. With a little knowledge, or the elderly in the village who had experienced the wolf king's southward, occasionally talking about the past at the entrance of the village, they were quite proud: "When the wolf king in the north was only a few hundred people, he dared to rush to Luoyang. Do you know that at that time, there were hundreds of thousands of troops gathered in Luoyang, and I expected that this person would be incredible in the future... I still remember that after passing by our village, I came in to ask for water. The head was 1788 feet long, and his arms were thick with thighs. I would raise the stone mill at the entrance of the village to play. What is the Western barbarians counting? How can I block the power of the wolf king..."

It is equivalent to the words and conversations in the market. After all, there are not many people who know the core information. The aristocratic families are more concerned about the army and whether the southern Western Regions Road is really flattened. All kinds of fast horses that convey messages are flying back and forth in various cities, country roads, and families with gaps even fought halfway, causing riots, which caused a headache for the prefecture and county officials. But as time went by, from the back caravan, the fragmented information finally pieced together into a complete piece of information and placed in front of the middle and upper classes of this world. It was a huge amount of information that they could not imagine.

The sea in the land is beyond the perception of many people, and the Qin Dynasty, which unified the entire Mediterranean, is also a giant. The area under its jurisdiction is not much different from that of the Han Dynasty. Even the Akira, which is located in the middle, is also a great country. Millions of people live on that land, except for the color of the skin, eyes, and hair, which is no different from the Han Dynasty. However, all of this was destroyed in war.

The wolf king dragged the entire Central Asia and the West into war with his own army. There were hundreds of thousands of people who died on the battlefield alone, and tens of millions of civilians were involved in the war. More than one million Persians in Central Asia alone died, which was not considered missing. The casualties caused by hunger and disease. During the seven years of the Western Expedition, even the emperors of several countries died in the war, three died in peace, one Persia died, and two emperors of the Qin Dynasty died in the hands of the Western Expedition Army. Although they were thousands of miles apart, after reading the terrifying numbers in the information, they usually made people sweat and their scalp numb. If the wolf king went south with 170,000 elite troops in the war, it would be difficult for everyone in the world to make other choices, either take a side or perish.

But ordinary people did not think much about the above people. The various wars on the Western Expedition, the story of which general fought bravely became a topic of discussion among the people, and most of them talked about it. In addition, when the Wolf King came back, the war between the South and the Central Plains suddenly disappeared, which made people feel the illusion of dominating the world. Some people even mocked: "It seems that Sun Quan, Liu Bei dared to fight? He angered the Wolf King in the North, and his family would fight you."

In such an atmosphere, the wolf king Gongsun Zhi, whom people often mention, has arrived west of Dai County and northwest of Yanmen.

The grassland was withered and dried up soil was exposed. The ignorant grassland children drove the cattle and sheep that were about to be sold back. A quaint leather felt tent in the distance formed a huge circle. The Hun women were making fire outside the tent. The men at home were bargaining with the Han vendors. In addition to sitting in the tent, the others were no different from the Han people. After the transaction was reached, the merchant happily invited people to go to the circle to count the animals.

To the southeast, a Han cavalry came out of the Yinguan and passed through their sight, along the road trampled by the shafts and horse hooves, heading north. When resting in the middle, a horse rushed to the earth slope and swept across the picture of the foothills bordering the grassland. After several spring and autumn, green and yellow continued to repeat in his sight. The once blank grassland had gathered tents of all sizes, and people began to reproduce here.

Xu Rong took off his iron helmet and his hair was gray. It was several years ago that he had become the governor of Bingzhou from Yanmen Prefecture. What's more important is that he was appointed as the commander of the Western Liang Army by Gongsun Zhi. But in fact, only Xu Rong was unable to participate in the Western Expedition in his heart. Comparing with the Gentile Army was probably the biggest regret in his life.

To the west, at the end of his sight, a vast amount of smoke spread. Xu Rong untied the water bag around his waist, lifted it over his head, and waited for the Western Expedition cavalry to pass by here, and his cloak was waving. He stood on the slope and shouted loudly: "The soldiers of the army returned from battles, show the mighty power of our great Han Dynasty, Rong took the water in his hometown, respected you all the triumphant success."

The dozen knights who were flying in the cavalry stopped and took the water bag handed over by Xu Rong's cavalry. Their dark and callous faces were red and their eyes were red. They bowed to Xu Rong and others on the horse's back, "The water in my hometown is delicious!" Then they tied the reins: "Continue to detect" and ran away from the front and disappeared from sight.

"These are all my big men..."

The wind was sobbing, and he stood there for a while, watching the scout leave, and then he turned over and took his personal soldiers to the front. When he faced, the broken and blood-stained wolf flag came with the black dragon. The flags of forest swept across the wilderness, and the overwhelming power overwhelmed everything in his sight. The army that was coming was incomplete with armor and traces of swords and guns, as fast as possible, and as if they were struggling to break out at any time.

When Xu Rong approached the past, a team of horses rushed over from Dai County. On the back of the horse, the man with a bald head and big beard was in his forties and looked bloated. He almost fell down on the way here several times on the way, and was nearly ten feet away. He saw that the person coming was Gao Sheng, who was stationed in Dai County.

"Premier Gao is here too." He raised his hands and greeted him.

Gao Sheng, who was nearly fifty years old, was still in his old state, but his energy was still there. Looking at the yellow grass in the distance, the army that was raising a shocking dust, laughed: "Then my leader, Lao Gao, will always be... how can I not come to welcome you?"

Not long after, Hua Xiong, who had a wide mouth and a tiger beard, rode a horse from the team and stepped forward to bow to the two of them: "The leader is in the central army, I have sent someone to report it. Oh, I haven't seen each other for a few years, Lao Gao's fat body is becoming more and more out of control."

The three of them were old acquaintances and did not care too much about the jokes. Soon, Li Ke brought a team of cavalry to take a look, "It turned out to be you, I thought someone had passed the wrong thing." After that, he turned around and returned, leaving the three of them looking at each other with an awkward look, but finally laughed.

The marching front army had reached the vicinity of three people. With the sound of footsteps, the sound of horse hooves rushing in front of them. The guards of hundreds of people, with wolf riding over, then separated from both sides, the three of them rode their horses and turned around and dismounted. In their sight, the majestic and powerful black horses stepped forward.

“Rise!”

"Huaxiong!"

"Xu Rong!"

The three of them knelt down on one knee as soon as they lifted their cloaks and bowed in unison: "Greetings to the lord (leader)"

"Get up." Gongsun Zhi also got off his horse and waved at them, "Follow me."

"yes!"

It has been seven years since the king and his subjects met. Fortunately, Gao Shengnai followed Gongsun Zhi when he was still a horse thief. More than ten years have passed. If we talked about it, if we had not followed the horse thief leader that night, we would probably have different things here and even the world. Whenever we suddenly think of this possibility, Gao Sheng felt that there should be a certain number in the sky.

The three of them walked on the grass in front of the army and talked about some wars in the Western Regions. The country. Xu Rong wanted to give a brief report on the situation in Bingzhou over the years, but was interrupted by Gongsun Zhi: "I just came back, and I don't want to listen to these things. You are the governor of Bingzhou. As long as it does not affect the affairs of the northern region, you will make your own decision. When the year is over, go back to Shanggu County and I will tell you a day."

Although it was a bit exaggerated to take a day alone, on the other hand, this was Gongsun Zhi's greatest trust. Half an hour later, Xu Rong rode his horse to the south with satisfaction. Looking at the leaving team, Gongsun Zhi turned over and looked at the outlines of the four hills vaguely seen in front of him, and whispered to Gao Sheng next to him: "The white wolf is in front of him."

Gao Sheng nodded.
