The first thousand three hundred thirty-nine chapters
Chapter 1339 Mingchao
Kang Juxiang glanced at King Kang Ju. Now the enemy has many soldiers and generals. Kang Ju used to have good relations with the Han Dynasty and paid tribute to the other side. As the replacement of the Han Dynasty, Huaxia has now captured the Western Regions. This will be certain.
He wanted to regain China's status and make Kangju surrender to China.
"If that's the case, how should we respond?"
At this time, King Kangju also shook his head. Although Kangju was considered a big country in the Western Regions and had many soldiers and horses in the country, it was still not enough for China. If the other party really came with this idea, so did he.
Don't know what to do.
"Your Majesty, China is now very powerful and cannot be resisted by us. Surrender is just like that. It is just a show. If the other party really thinks so, then it is a sign of surrender. For us, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
"
Kang Juxiang thought for a while and said that surrender was just a name. China would not interfere in Kang Ju's internal affairs, so it was not a big deal.
"What do you think?"
King Kangju glanced at the others again and asked their opinions.
"If China just thinks this way, surrender is not impossible."
"I agree, so as not to start another war with China."
"China is too powerful to resist, so surrender."
All civil and military officials saluted King Kang Ju one after another to express their agreement with Prime Minister Kang Ju's words.
"That's it, Lorda, you go out of the city immediately, ask them about the situation, and then bring them to Su Xie City."
Since no one had any objections, King Kangju had nothing to say and directly asked Minister Lorda to lead his people south.
Lorda led his people south, while Yan Liang and others headed north under the leadership of Komodo. Two days later, the two sides finally met.
"Captain, Lord Lorda is here."
When Darlo arrived, Komodo was immediately informed.
"Follow me to meet with the general immediately."
Upon hearing Darlo's arrival, Komodo did not dare to hesitate and directly led his people to fight with the opponent.
"Komodo pays homage to Lord Darlo."
Komodo saluted Darlo directly.
"Are these ten thousand cavalrymen from China?"
Darlo saw Komodo coming and asked him directly.
"As your Excellency expected, the other party is indeed an envoy from China."
Komodo glanced at Darlo and directly revealed the other party's identity.
"Have they made their intention clear?"
Upon hearing the other party's identity, Darlo also nodded.
"They said they were envoys from China, coming for peace, and wanted to see His Majesty."
Komodo directly revealed the identities of Zhou Yu and the others.
"As a recommendation, I want to meet with the Chinese envoy."
Hearing that the other party was indeed an envoy from China, Darlow nodded. He wanted to meet with the envoy from China to see what he wanted to do.
"I'll arrange it right away,"
Komodo nodded. Since the other party met the Chinese envoy, he had nothing to say.
Komodo brought Darlo directly to the Yingyang Army.
"what for?"
Komodo brought Darlo over, and the Yingyang Army immediately imposed martial law. I don't know what the other party wants to do when they come here.
"I am the envoy of Kang Juguo. I want to meet with the envoy of China."
Darlo saw the Yingyang Army under martial law and directly revealed his identity.
"Wait a moment, I'll go report."
Hearing that the other party was Kang Ju's envoy, Ying Yangjun at the front did not dare to neglect, directly clasped his fists at the other party, and then reported to Zhou Yu.
"The envoy from Kangju is here?"
Zhou Yu was also stunned when he heard the other party's identity. Now that the envoy from Kangju is here, what does he want to do?
"Yes, that's what the other party said."
Scout Ma nodded, that was indeed what the other party said.
"Let them come."
"promise."
Soon the scouts went out to take Darluo back to see Zhou Yu.
"Dalluo, the envoy of King Kangju, met with the envoy of Hua Xia."
Darluo came over to greet Zhou Yu directly.
"Darluo, right? Why did King Kangju punish you for coming here?"
Upon hearing that the other party was Kang Ju's envoy, Zhou Yu directly opened the curtain and met with the other party.
"My king has sent me to welcome the Chinese envoy."
Glancing at Zhou Yu, who had extraordinary magnanimity, Darluo couldn't help but nodded, thinking to himself that China was a kingdom in heaven, and any envoy could be so majestic. It was indeed not something that a small country like his could match.
"Well, then Zhou Yu would like to thank King Kang Ju. Now I just want to rush to Su Xie City immediately and discuss important matters with King Kang Ju."
Zhou Yu nodded at the other party. The fact that King Kang Ju sent an envoy specifically showed that the other party valued China. The more they valued China, the greater the chance of success in this negotiation.
"May I ask the angel, what do you want to discuss with my king?"
Hearing that Zhou Yu had something important to discuss, Darluo couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat. He came with two tasks. One was to confirm Zhou Yu's identity, and the other was to find a way to find out what the other party was talking about when he came to Kangju, so that King Kangju could
Be prepared.
"Haha, I'm afraid I can only explain this matter after I meet King Kang Ju, but I can only say that this matter is definitely a good thing for Kang Ju."
Zhou Yu couldn't help but betray Darluo. Although the other party was an envoy of King Kangju, he had not yet reached the level of making decisions on national affairs. Since he did not have the ability, talking to him would only be a waste of words and would be of no use at all.
No.
"It's me who asked more. Komodo, hurry up and move forward. Your Majesty is still in Su Xue waiting for the angel to come."
Since the other party didn't want to tell, Darluo was embarrassed to ask. Although both parties were envoys, the size gap between his country and China was too big. If Kangju was a big empire like Guishang or Anxi, he could also
Being on an equal footing with the other person, now I can only laugh with him behind him.
It took Darluo two days to travel south from Su Xue City, but it only took a day and a half for everyone to arrive at Su Xue.
"Your Majesty, Darluo and the Chinese envoy have arrived five miles outside the city gate."
When Dalluo returned, he naturally sent scouts back to report the news to Kang Ju.
"Open the city gates wide and order the people in the city to line the streets to greet you. In addition, a banquet will be arranged in the palace to welcome the Chinese envoys."
When he heard that the enemy was about to arrive in five miles, King Kangju directly ordered the city gates to be opened wide and organized the people to line up to greet him.
Zhou Yu entered the city and couldn't help but shook his head when he looked at the people around the road. Although Su Xie was the royal city of Kangju, there were still many shortcomings here compared with China. Not only was the city small, the population was not large, but even the residents'
It seems that most of the people in clothing are poor and not as rich as China.
But everything has advantages and disadvantages. It is precisely because of this gap and precisely because of China's wealth that those foreign races regard China as a treasure and have never given up their invasion of China. If China is a bitter and cold land, it should be compared to
Those foreign races regard China as their formidable enemy.
Zhou Yu got out of the car, and the people around him, including Kang Ju, the civil and military officials, all saluted, and King Kang Ju also came to greet him.
"King Kangju respectfully welcomes the envoy from China."
King Kang Ju saluted Zhou Yu. Although he was the leader of a country, as a former vassal state of the Han Dynasty, Zhou Yu represented the son of China, so it was not an exaggeration for him to salute him.
"King Kang Ju, you are so polite."
Zhou Yu glanced at King Kang Ju and did not return the gift. He now represented the emperor of the Chinese Empire and Yuan Shu, so he absolutely could not return the gift.
"I have arranged a banquet, angel please come."
King Kang Ju glanced at Zhou Yu, led the way directly, and entered the palace with Zhou Yu.
Everyone sat down, but Yan Liangli did not sit down behind Zhou Yu. His current duty was to be Zhou Yu's guard, and he would definitely not drink or eat.
"Play music and dance."
King Kangju glanced at Yan Liang and directly ordered the palace musicians to play music. Then a row of dancing girls came gracefully and began Kangju's unique dance.
"King Kang Ju, it's time for us to talk about business."
After some wine and food, Zhou Yu glanced at King Kang Ju who was in the first place.
"Come on, all the dancers have left, and the musicians have stopped playing."
Hearing Zhou Yu speak, King Kangju also knew that the other party was about to show off his cards, so he directly abandoned the dancer and paused the music.
"Angel, I wonder why you are here?"
"King Kang Ju, I said when I came here that this trip is to give Kang Ju a great gift. Now I can reveal the gift. The Chinese prince actually has other goals in his expedition to the Western Regions. The so-called target is actually Kang Ju's enemy.
, Da Yuezhi."
Zhou Yu looked at King Kang Ju and slowly stated Hua Xia's goals.
"Angel, I didn't hear clearly. Who did you say China's target was?
Da Yuezhi?"
After hearing this, not only King Kangju was stunned, but all the civil and military officials accompanying the banquet in the palace became petrified. The worst case scenario they originally expected was that Huaxia would surrender to Kangju, and they didn't care, but they didn't.
It's so exciting to think that the other party's real target is the powerful country to the south of Kangju, the Great Yuezhi Kushan Empire.
"You heard it right, our target is Da Yuezhi,
When China was first founded, the Da Yuezhi brazenly increased their troops on the southern border with the intention of invading China. They also colluded with the remnants of the previous dynasty in the empire to overthrow the rule of our emperor.
This is unbearable, so our Imperial Majesty decided to launch a counterattack against the Great Yuezhi. Now he gathered 500,000 troops in the southern part of the empire and defeated the 300,000 troops led by the Great Yuezhi General Hariwan. At the same time,
After conquering all the way out of Yizhou, we have already entered Baloyega and occupied a large area of the territory of the Great Yueshi.
The reason for the expedition to the Western Regions now is not just to take back the rule of the Western Regions, but also to open up a second battlefield and attack the Yueshi from the north.
Our Emperor personally led a million-strong army from Shule into Lite, and sent 300,000 cavalry into Khwarezm. The domestic industry has also prepared a million-strong army, and the second batch of troops will arrive at any time.
The reason why I was sent to Kangju was actually because Kangju was very obedient to the previous dynasty, and it was difficult for our country to effectively manage the vast territory of the Dayue clan, so I wanted to invite Kangju to join us in sending troops to attack the Dayue clan.
If Kangju agrees, after the matter is completed, I can suggest that His Majesty the Emperor hand over the land of Khwarezm to Kangju for the development needs of your people."
Zhou Yu glanced at King Kangju and directly stated his original intention of coming. After all, the battle between himself and Kushan had already begun, and he needed Kangju's supply of drinking water and food. As for the Khwarezmo he mentioned, those were
Later, after taking down Da Yueshi, Kang Ju still wanted to run away?
It's simply impossible.
Now King Kangju and the ministers of Kangju were even more shocked. They really didn't expect that Da Yuezhi would have such courage and dare to provoke Hua Xia.
No, it’s not like they’ve never done this before, but they were severely punished by the big man. They didn’t expect to dare to play with fire this time.
This is the ironclad. There are 500,000 troops in the south and one million troops in the Western Region. This is 1.5 million troops.
Even if the water is thrown away, at a reasonable price, China will send 700,000 to 800,000 troops this time.
As for the 700,000-800,000-strong army, that's not 700,000-800,000 cattle and sheep. You must know that the people of Kangju are only a few hundred thousand people. Even if you can put together 100,000 soldiers and horses even if you have to work hard, it will be good.
The other side has sent nearly one million troops this time, and the country has also prepared a second wave of troops. This is really beyond their imagination.
"Lord Angel, this matter is of great importance. Although I, Kangju, respect me as King Kangju, there are still four little kings who are divided into other places. I need to discuss with them before I make a decision."
