Strictly speaking, the Western Regions where Sima Ji is now located is already a gathering area for Persian language ethnic groups, which of course has nothing to do with the current Sassanian Persia. The reason why the Persian people spread so far is closely related to the Achaemenid dynasty in the Spring and Autumn Period, which is the ancient Persia in people's impression.

As the first great empire in world history, the Achaemenid dynasty came to power, with a much greater influence than the Macedonian king who fought in the east. The Achaemenid dynasty stood alone at the top in its own time. It felt a bit like ancient Egypt watching other civilizations in its own time.

The many Persians in the Western Regions today, as well as the nomadic farming Persians in the vast areas of Eastern Europe, are all legacies left by the Achaemenid dynasty. Of course, Sassanid Persia is also very powerful, but it does not have the status of the Achaemenid dynasty to see the mountains at a glance.

In name, the Western Regions had already belonged to the Central Plains dynasty when Emperor Xuan of Han established the Protectorate, but the humanistic habits here were more similar to the Persian Empire. But it doesn't matter. Sima Ji was not worried that there were so many Persian Empire since ancient times, whoever had the ability was his own.

As far as he knows about the history of later generations, these tribes that are not far from the Persians will become Turkic in the future. In the future, some tribes in this area will become Mongolian, which can be adjusted in the future.

The habits of farming and nomadic people alone are already exploited enough. Don’t look at their relationships that are closer to those of the Jin and Hu people. That is an illusion.

"It's closer than you imagined. You're doing well. Let's take a break first. I have something to do in Gaochang!" Sima Ji waved his hand and just could understand the situation. The current Persian Empire naturally had emperors. Later historical evaluations were of course considered a magnificent monarch. During his tenure, he had annexed the nomadic peoples around the river to a certain extent, pushing the border to a very close position to the Chief Mansion of the Western Regions.

But the Persian emperor must have this ability at this time. He was only one year old, and even a genius would have to grow up for ten years. If he wanted to grow into a towering tree, he could not do without taking care of him when he was a small sapling.

At this time, he is naturally definitely not Sima Ji's opponent. If he had a high opinion of himself, he might have regrets. Sima Ji would not have this bad habit. Even if the opponent was Zhao Gou and Qin Hui, the King of Yan would not feel that he could show his ability in a thousand. The opponent would be a golden combination of the Gor Map Khitans, so that he could show his wise and magical martial arts.

Strictly speaking, Shapur II has been the emperor of the Persian Empire since he was born. In a sense, it can be said that he has been the Yellow Emperor for 70 years. However, the other party is only one year old now, so what should I think about the situation in the Persian Empire?

The emperor cannot manage the government, and the power must be in the hands of his mother or wife, and a group of great nobles are added. Sima Ji doesn't need to recall this model. Isn't this the Great Jin Empire in the past few years? It's not the first time that the King of Yan has dealt with such a country. He is the final winner of the Eight Kings Rebellion.

Perhaps the Persian emperor was not as meaningful as the emperor of the Central Plains dynasty, but such a country might not be very weak, and it would definitely not be as strong as it is.

Having a rough understanding of the Persian Empire, Sima Ji put it behind his mind and did some things that suited his identity first, such as appeaseing the small countries in the Western Regions. Most of the small countries in the Western Regions were at best even city-states. The weak Sima Ji would not do anything to them, and it would be embarrassing to fight. Take the Pule Kingdom in the Book of Han for example. The king ruled the Shuyu Valley in the West of Tianshan Mountain. He went to Chang'an for 8,360 miles, 325 households, 2,322 mouths, and 799 soldiers. The Marquis of the Assistant Kingdom, one left and right general, and one left and right commander. The southwest reaches the 1,387 miles of the capital protection.

There are three hundred households in a city, with a total population of two thousand. The men are all soldiers, with a total of eight hundred. There are many countries like Pulei. Sima Ji came to cause trouble for these countries with an unprofessional army of 120,000. Even Shi Le's hometown, the Jieshi, is better than these countries. When encountering such an opponent, it cannot solve the problem in one hour, so Sima Ji killed the vanguard.

Even Wusun was the one who was the king of the Western Regions, that was the country where the Han Dynasty attacked the Huns and married each other. Sima Ji didn't care about the matter of marriage or not, and marriage did not delay the reputation of the Han Dynasty. Moreover, this matter depends on the general situation. When the Han Dynasty confronted the Huns, it was not the Han Dynasty itself who was married. Often, the Han Dynasty and the Huns were engaged at the same time. The left and right wives of Wusun at that time were a Han man and a Hun. The Huns were much stronger than Wusun and they were married. The Han Dynasty had to learn from the Huns, which was also normal.

Now Wusun has long been weak. When Sima Yan was still alive, the prince was all serving as a attendant in Luoyang. Sima Ji was not polite and asked Zhou Ji to order people to pass the imperial edict to prepare to perform a play with the other party in Gaochang. As for those Xiye, who were not much bigger than the city-state, Zihe, even saved the imperial edict and sent someone to notify him.

"Who dares not come? I heard that these small Western countries were afraid of the Huns two hundred years ago. Murong Han, whoever dares to accept you will destroy them!" Sima Ji ordered casually, his tone was so disgusting. The country is too small and it cannot even play the role of training troops. The weather is quite hot, so it's better to bother the Xianbei people to go there.

Sima Ji is going to follow his example in the grassland operation. In fact, he will also try whether the Jin Dynasty has authority in the Western Regions. If all of them come, it means that there is authority. If no one pays attention to him, it means that the Western Regions should be rectified.

I don’t know if Zhou Ji was particularly popular in the Western Regions or for some other reason. After receiving the notice from the General Office of the Western Regions, many envoys from small countries set out toward Gaochang, including Qiu Lu, the king of Wusun.

Sima Ji, who was quietly waiting to show that he was supported by the people, was a little surprised when he heard that Qiu Lu came to Gaochang. He immediately found the contemporary Wusun King and asked suspiciously, "Don't you know if Wusun King has been to Luoyang?"

"Xiao Wang used to be a attendant in Luoyang when he was young and was appreciated by Emperor Wu." Qiu Lu quickly spoke when he heard this, "Because his father was in poor health and Emperor Wu was in a funeral, Xiao Wang left Luoyang and returned to China."

Sima Ji sighed secretly that it was you. He was still revolving around his own ban state at that time. He just knew that there was such a thing and had never seen the person involved. He didn't expect to see him today. The other party left Luoyang for many years but had not forgotten his words and could still talk to him. He spoke, "The King of Wusun came in person. I am very pleased that Wusun was already a family as early as the pre-Han period, and today it is also an ally of the Great Jin."
