"send troops!"

King Hu Yongmu of Kucha slapped his couch, stood up and said to the civil and military officials.

At critical moments, we need to make a decision immediately. If we hesitate, it is likely to cause disaster.

"After making a decision, the king of the country will be wise. After this victory, he will definitely win the favor of the Han cavalry."

The King of Kucha and most civil and military officials worshiped the King of Kucha.

"The five thousand cavalry were led by General Gan, and the bloody horse of my sweat was entrusted to the envoy of the Cheshi's former country. I also passed my letter and handed it over to the King of Knife. Kucha had always been a vassal state of the Han Dynasty and had never had a second heart. Kucha could charge for the Han Dynasty, or go through fire and water for the Han Dynasty."

Hu Yongmu asked downwards.

"No." The civil and military ministers responded.

In the face of Guan Yu's edict, Kucha made a clear statement and was willing to offer his sweat and blood.

The imperial edict spread throughout the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions in these days.

Many countries were intimidated by Guan Yu, believing that the Han Dynasty was about to enter the Western Regions again.

Of course, there are also some self-righteous people who turn a blind eye to the manifesto sent by Guan Yu. They do not think that Guan Yu can defeat the Xianbei cavalry.

For example, King Jingjue and King Khotan. They refused to send troops on the grounds that the country had no cavalry.

There are also more than a dozen Western Region countries such as Shule, Khotan, and Shache in the upper reaches of the Tarim River, which all refused because they were far away.

The Loulan Kingdom, Xiaowan, and Qiemo countries, ignored the manifesto passed down from Guan Yu.

The thirty-six countries in the Western Regions refer to the early Western Han Dynasty, where thirty-six countries were distributed in the Western Regions.

As the times moved, the thirty-six countries, or more divided, or multiple countries were annexed.

For example, in the fifth BC, the Western Regions split into more than fifty countries. Until the early Eastern Han Dynasty, there were more than fifty countries in the Western Regions.

According to the original historical trend, during the Three Kingdoms Rebellion of the Han and the Three Kingdoms, the countries in the Western Regions continued to merge major powers, and by the Wei and Jin Dynasties, several major powers such as Loulan and Cheshi emerged.

Even in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the unfamous Gaochang Kingdom rose, defeating several major Western Regions powers one after another, unifying the Western Regions, and establishing a powerful country spanning most of the Western Regions.

But some people also mentioned the Western Regions, and called the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions.

Therefore, the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions do not mean that there are thirty-six countries in the Western Regions.

Five days later, Cheshi, Jiaohe City.

Nearly twenty countries from Kucha, Weixu, Puli, Gumo, Weitou, and Qiang gathered in Jiaohe City.

Except for Kucha, the rest of these countries are small countries.

Kucha is centered on Kuche Oasis and has abundant resources. Therefore, it has five thousand cavalrymen.

Since Gumo annexed Wensu Kingdom during the New Dynasty, its strength has increased greatly and it has a thousand cavalry. Gumo did not intend to send troops, but when he saw that the Kucha king, who had always been scheming, had dispatched all the cavalry, he also sent troops to try his luck.

There is also the Qiang Kingdom, which is a country of travel and a pure nomadic people who follow the animals and go through the water and plants. They cannot be underestimated. There are also a thousand cavalry coming to Jiaohe River.

Guan Yu mobilized the chariot master and assembled two thousand cavalrymen.

The other small countries gathered a total of 4,000 cavalrymen.

There are a total of 13,000 string control men, which are much more than Guan Yu expected.

The most important thing is that Kucha is coming.

On the afternoon of that day, Guan Yu received a report from the Cheshi Kingdom that the Xianbei in the West was frequently mobilized, and countless tribes gathered in one place, as if there was a great war.

After hearing this news, Guan Yu burst into tears. It must be that the Han army defended Shuofang, reinforcements rushed over and launched a counterattack against the Xianbei in the west.

Suddenly, Guan Yu had a decision in his heart. Going to war tomorrow. Perhaps there would be countries in the Western Regions coming. But Guan Yu couldn't wait.

He notified Che Shi Wang Juhong and informed the countries in the Western Regions to prepare their troops and supplies and set off tomorrow.

That night, Ju Hong invited Guan Yu to the Cheshi Palace.

"This cup, I wish the general a victory." Ju Hong looked at Guan Yu and said respectfully to Guan Yu.

"The Xianbei has been attacked by our army. In this battle, I will take the first place of the Japanese rule to avenge the previous shame." Guan Yu said heavily after drinking, drinking all his mouth.

"I know that the general has won, but I don't know if the general is back after this battle?" Ju Hong said sadly.

"It depends entirely on the arrangement of the general. Maybe I won't come back." Guan Yu shook his head and said.

Many people thought that the Han Dynasty was going to enter the Western Regions. But Guan Yu believed that the lord would not enter the Western Regions so soon.

Because Liangzhou is blocked, the Hexi Corridor is blocked, and the Silk Road is blocked. For Yanmen and Hetao after the war, controlling the Western Regions is equivalent to a burden. If there is war in the Western Regions, you have to use your energy to pass.

Just like during the Jianwu period of Emperor Guangwu, the Northern Huns took advantage of Wang Mang's killing and the Western Regions Protector Li Chong lost contact with the Central Plains, and the Xiongnu entered the Western Regions.

The Huns collected taxes and re-engraved them, and the countries in the Western Regions could not bear the burden. Eighteen countries, represented by Khotan and Shache, jointly wrote a letter to Luoyang, requesting the restoration of the gubernatorial master. Liu Xiu did not promise because "the Huns were not settled" and "the country was first settled".

It took only three years from the rise of the army to the emperor, and only twelve years from the time of the emperor to the pacification of the world. But after he unified the country, he was "disgusted with military affairs" and "don't talk about military affairs". Because Liu Xiu understood that the rivers and mountains after he cleaned up were already full of holes and had to rest and recuperate. He gave up continuing the battle and was diligent in political affairs, so he had the "maintaining the martial arts era".

On the contrary, as long as you leave an influence in the Western Regions and enter the Western Regions later, you will have a thought. Because you defeated the Xianbei, you will control the grasslands. The countries in the Western Regions have no choice.

"General, if you stay, I will divide the Cheshi with the general. Although the Cheshi country is small, it can also be prosperous and wealthy. If the general wants to have a hero..." Ju Hong invited him.

"The king of the country doesn't have to say anything anymore. For many days, I have been communicating with your brothers and have a heart to each other. You should understand me." Guan Yu stretched out his hand and interrupted Ju Hong's words.

Ju Hong choked and looked at Guan Yu. He saw Guan Yu stand up and said slowly: "Although Guan Yu is a martial artist, he knows the word "loyalty and righteousness". As the saying goes, birds that choose trees can be found to be good trees; ministers who choose masters can meet wise lords. Guan Yu was originally a desperate person, but when he met a general, he was invited to the heavens for his blessing. If it were not for the general, Guan Yu might be wandering around, so how could he have the opportunity to make achievements? The general's kindness will be unforgettable for three lives. Guan Yu's life's wish is to follow the general to pacify the north and south, and the east and west of the army. Guan Yu's destiny is the destiny of the general. Guan Yu's body is the body of the general."

"No matter what, I will follow the general's life and death. Guan Yu once vowed that if he violated the general, he would kill him together."

Guan Yu looked longing, couldn't move when he spoke, and his eyes were firm.

"The world is like this, there is only one general!" Ju Hong stood up and bowed to Guan Yu.

Guan Yu calmly returned the gift.

"Today, we should separate. We should not talk about other things, but just say goodbye."

Ju Hong asked Guan Yu to take his seat. He knew that Guan Yu was determined and that he would hurt his harmony if he said anything again.

Until midnight, Guan Yu was slightly drunk and returned to the room to rest.

The next day, early morning.

Guan Yu woke up from the haze, and the servant went into the room to wash up and deliver food to Guan Yu.

Guan Yu suddenly found that there was an extra wooden box in the room. He happened to enter the room. Guan Yu asked what this was?

"Report to General, last night, the king of Cheshi sent someone to carry a box of gold to thank General for helping him unify Cheshi." ** reported to Guan Yu.

When Guan Yu opened the box, it turned out to be a box of gold.

Although Ju Hong had just unified the eight departments, this box of gold was also a fortune for him.

At this time, ** took out another large seal and handed it to Guan Yu, saying, "This is the deputy king's seal of Cheshi. It can drive the king's right in Cheshi. The king of Cheshi said that no matter when the general needs Cheshi's help, he can use this seal to mobilize national strength and army at any time."

The Kushan system had a deputy king system, but that deputy king was just the king's deputy. Even if the power was too great, it was not as good as the deputy king's rights given by Ju Hong.

"The army has gathered! Hang the seal in front of the door and seal the gold. Follow me out of the city."

Guan Yu's expression remained unchanged and he ordered him.
