Chapter 1636: Under the Despicable, Desire, Desire for Victory

After watching Li Xin leave, Brah turned his head and looked at the generals behind him and asked, "What do you think?"

"Although he is just an ordinary envoy, his temperament is far superior to every envoy before. At least he has not shown any fear from beginning to end. Even if he is intimidated by Yan Lipu, he has not shown any fear." Helirah looked at the back of Li Xin who was guarded by the guards and said with a little admiration.

"Yan Lipu, I know you have a lot of confusion and anger, but now is not the time for you to get angry. Next, we will have a battle with the Han Dynasty. If you have any questions, use your sword to ask the enemy in front of you." Brah saw that Yan Lipu looked unhappy and said with a smile.

"I will ask them with my sword. If they are worthy of my fight, then come on." Yan Lipu said proudly. As one of the few strong men with the extreme internal energy left of the body in the Kushan Empire, he had absolute confidence in his own force.

"Prepare for war. Since the Han Empire is confident that we can choose the time and place, then we will prepare a big gift for them." Brah said with a faint smile on his face.

"It's not good." Sulapuri said with a frown, "Even if the other party gives us the time and place to choose, it would be too embarrassing if we do it too much."

"There is nothing shameful or embarrassing in war. Since they have such a high attitude, why don't we take advantage of it? I still remember that His Majesty Yan Gaozhen was defeated by the Pamirs. Why don't we use it if we have the chance?" Brah shook his head and said.

"It was them who gave us the opportunity to choose a time and place. Since it is within the scope of the rules, why not use it? What is the face? Let's talk about it if you win." Helirah said with a chuckling, but a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

"Just doing this, isn't it acknowledging that our Kushan is not as good as the Han Dynasty?" Sulapuri frowned and said, "After saying that we are also a powerful dynasty that has been almost undefeated for more than a hundred years, from nothing to something, from the south of the Pamir Mountains, and are almost undefeated."

"That's just that we have never encountered a real powerful country as we did before. Think about what countries around us are considered powerful?" Leiblaley shrugged and said, and the circle of generals next to him suddenly showed an unhappy expression on his face.

"Although no one likes to listen to this, I still want to say that before we really fight against the Han Empire and truly defeat the Han Empire, we must be respectful to them." Brah said solemnly.

"At least under this heaven, as the Great Yuezhi royal family that once connected to the east and west, from history to today, the empire we have proved to be destroyed only once." Leiblaley said with a chuckling look at everyone.

"This time alone is enough to remember that the extreme Western Rome took more than a hundred years and is still in a stalemate with the Parthian Empire. It is hard to say it will be destroyed. The Parthian Empire is so powerful that I, Kushan, have fought several times. Except for Emperor Yan Gaozhen, have there been other victories? But did Parthian completely destroy us at its peak?" Helirah explained calmly.

"However, hundreds of years ago, the Hun Empire was extremely powerful. Not only did it almost destroy our ancestors, but even just the Right Xianwang who was responsible for advancing westwards, they fought all the way, with their troops pushing the Pamirs. Such a powerful empire was finally beaten by the Han Empire and almost disappeared." Helirahson looked at all the generals with a cold look, which made everyone feel a little cold.

"Okay, don't scare them, Helirah, you can just know these things. I know that your family is in history, but you don't need to show off these things." Seeing that all the generals were suppressed, Brah immediately stopped Helirah. If this continues, morale will be problematic.

"Ha." Helirah stopped intimidation indifferently. As a family that has always recorded his country's history, Helirah knew too many horrors that were buried in history, so he was most awe of the Han Empire.

By the way, when Kushan was still in Central Asia, it was a node for the exchanges between the East and the West, and it was much more profound than the Roman and Han dynasties that had a deeper understanding of the surrounding countries. Therefore, the Helilah family had detailed records of the surrounding countries.

Even if they were cheated by the Huns half dead and lost the classics, as compilers of history books, they had a deeper understanding of the surrounding countries than normal aristocrats.

This is like if Sima Qian had a son and passed on it, the Sima family's understanding of neighboring countries would definitely be much stronger than Li You's knowledgeable and memorable half-bottle water. This is also considered a kind of family origin.

"Helilah, what's the point of being so scary?" Amir, the general who had not spoken, looked at Heilah with dissatisfaction. He was basically out of place with these nobles. He had no choice but to be a Dalit. He had to rely on himself to make a good fortune.

"Although I don't like Helirah's words, if I remember correctly, he is telling the truth. The Han Empire is the only super empire that has successfully destroyed another empire. This record is still unbreakable." Sharuk, the general next to him, said slowly, and everyone's expressions became even more ugly.

In fact, the possibility of annihilation as an empire in other countries is actually very small. A vast territory alone is enough to choke to death in a country that wants to annex the empire. The supply line is a reality that cannot be avoided even in the age of hot weapons, let alone ancient times.

So normally speaking, if one great empire wants to destroy another empire, the efforts of several generations are inevitable during this period. However, what will happen to several generations of empires, such a system that is both scam and despicable, is really unreliable.

After all, you cannot guarantee that you will be a wise ruler for generations, nor that you can guarantee that another empire will be a fool for generations. To be honest, one generation will seriously damage another empire's vitality. This is basically a fantasy.

In fact, Emperor Wu of Han defeated the Xiongnu, which greatly damaged the vitality of Emperor Zhao, which allowed Emperor Zhao to free up his hands to develop the country and continue to differentiate and destroy the Xiongnu. The most important reason why Emperor Wu lived for too long, and he had been in power for fifty-five years. In ancient times, these were three generations.

In this way, the iron-blooded way of Emperor Wu cannot be said to have destroyed the Hun Empire. It can only be said to have severely damaged the Hun Empire. If it weren't for Emperor Zhao, Emperor Xuan would have been very powerful, and the Hun Empire was a brainless person one after another, so it would not be so easy to destroy the Huns.

Similarly, referring to Rome and Anxue, you will know that Anxue is not as powerful as the Huns, and Rome and the Han Dynasty are definitely in the same way, but the war between Rome and Anxue has been fought for at least two hundred years. If we count the rise of the Sassanian Persian Empire in the future instead of Anxue, we will continue to fight with Rome, and the war between the two empires lasted for six hundred years...

The reason why the two empires were so turbulent is that the emperors on both sides did not reign for a long time, and the emperors from the Roman republic were also strong and weak, and the emperors from the Sassanian Persian system were also strong and weak.

You can see that with the same basic structure, the country ruled by Vesutva I, who had been scrambling to live, was like sunset, and after the turmoil, the entire empire was reborn in the ashes, and even its spirit was different.

This is the biggest problem with the so-called imperial system. If the emperor is really powerful, the power that the entire country will burst out will be very terrible. If the emperor is too good, the entire country will be too good at it. In short, the king of the country who has fallen country is basically too good at it.

So if two large empires with vast population and large population base start, generally speaking, as long as one of them is not too unlucky and several generations of garbage are produced in succession, it can only be said that both sides have a win or a defeat, and it is difficult to say who loses and who wins.

Just like the rest of the world now, to be honest, Vollogis V's opponent would still be the Five Sages Emperors. If this generation of emperors continues, the war between the two sides will last for hundreds of years.

It can be said that in the imperial war, as long as there are no powerful emperors who have to die for more than three generations of opponents in a row, or a country has produced several generations of wise rulers in a row, it is basically difficult for anyone to destroy their opponents by fighting for faces.

The foundation of the power of the Hun Empire lies in the fact that the three generations of Shanyu, Maodun, Laoshang, and military officials all deserved the view that the wise ruler was wise. Including the earlier Touman, the three generations of wise rulers directly laid the foundation of an empire.

However, the Han Empire, the opponent of the Hun Empire, had seven generations of monarchs above average, and then met the powerful Emperor Wu in the early days of the Yizhixie era. Well, Emperor Wu directly survived the five or six generations of Shanyu.

When Emperor Wu of Han died for five or six generations of Shanyu, emperors of super-high standards such as Emperor Zhao and Emperor Xuan were connected to the Han Dynasty, and the Hun Empire had four generations of waste materials. If he had not died, how strong should he have to be?

So what really needs to be said about the destruction of the empire is much greater than that of the enemy. However, for the historians who compiled historical books of the Kushan and the Han Dynasty, there are more likely to be written about the causes of war, but the possibility of reasoning to be destroyed by war is really small.

"Okay, just be sure of this matter. Don't have too much psychological pressure to fight with the Han Empire. After all, we are not the ones we were a hundred years ago. It's better to have a fight to let us know each other." Brah comforted everyone and said, indeed, the result of destroying an empire...

"But I still don't recommend tampering with time and place." Sulapuri said hesitantly. He also knew the power of the Han Empire. "In my opinion, a strong empire should at least have confidence. We have it when facing other countries, but when facing the Han Empire, our mentality is obviously a problem."

"There is a problem, but I think the general's proposal is good. We should indeed have confidence, but even though we know that it is not so easy to win, we still maintain confidence rather than being cautious. This is probably not good." Leiblaley explained.

"But if we win with such means, what can we get?" Sulapri obviously couldn't let go.

"Get confidence." Brach said in silence for a while.

"How can one gain confidence? It can only make the soldiers feel ashamed!" Sulapuri said dissatisfied.

"What do they know?" Helilah mocked, "What the soldiers need is victory, what we need is confidence. Even if we use this method, if we can defeat the Han Empire, do you think there will be a change in our mentality for us?"

"I reserve my opinion." Sulapril was silent for a while and nodded in recognition of Helilah's answer, but stubbornly retained his opinion.

"Do you have any ideas? Tell me what you think. Let me understand your mentality." Seeing that Helirah persuaded Sulapuri, Brah turned his head and asked other civil servants and generals.

"No more." Yan Lipu shook his head and said, the same was true for other generals. These generals did not have so much thought than civil officials. What's more, after hearing the achievements of the Han Empire, they were more awake as generals who charged into battle.

After all, it is not only soldiers who need victory, but also generals need victory. Let’s go to the hell. As for the time and place, the generals don’t care about it at all. It’s enough to win, and you don’t have to take the rest to heart.

"Since that's the case, you can choose soldiers to prepare for war. It is impossible for us to fight too large-scale wars with the Han Dynasty. This is completely unnecessary, but it is not good to have too few. Each of you can prepare a soldier." Brach said after thinking for a while.

Brah really didn't want to lose too much force, but he wanted to peek at the current military power of the Han Empire. So after thinking about it for a while, he prepared to turn this battle into a microcosm of a war and control the scale of both sides, but all the soldiers were elite.

"Herilah, Sulapuri, Leibrelly, you three stay. Let's talk about the time and place, and how to fight this battle. Although we are ready to lose, if we win, we also need to be prepared." After Brah took away the general, he said to the three civil servants.

Several people compared the map and calculated the speed of the Han Dynasty's march, and finally chose a place that was quite unfavorable to the Han Dynasty. As for the agreed time for the war letter to be one month later, but there were only more than twenty days left after the sending. If the army marched, it would be impossible to travel so far in these twenty days without forcing it once or twice.

Although the marching for more than twenty days only took one or two forced operations, which seemed to have no effect, but to reach that level, a slight gap may cause the balance to deflect in a certain direction.

"I always feel that if we do this, if we lose, it will be really embarrassing." Sulapri sighed and said.

"So you have to win. Choosing despicable means means we have been to win from the beginning, not to lose to others for the so-called dignity." Helirah shrugged and said, "We have no way out, of course our general is even more."
