Chapter 673: The Horrible Han Dynasty (1)(1/2)

Taiyuan City is full of traffic and flowers.

Merchants from all over the world passed through this ancient city and took countless goods to the place of wealth they wanted to reach.

Occasionally, there will be blond and blue-eyed exotic merchants who will arrive here with the flow of people.

Sometimes, some coins from distant and unknown foreign countries can appear on the market in Taiyuan, and some coins minted in gold or silver are carved with portraits on the front and back.

Although most Han people don’t know much about what the meaning of these barbarians doing this?

But this does not prevent people from accepting these gold coins.

Anyway, it's all gold, right?

But today, a strange mission came to Taiyuan City.

These people have completely different appearances from China.

Most of them have black hair, brown eyes, high nose bridge, wolves fur coats, and a pointed felt hat. This felt hat is large and triangular, almost completely covering the wearer's head and extending to both sides to completely cover the ears.

They usually have a bronze knife for melee combat tied around their waists.

To be precise, it should be a short bronze spear.

In the Western Regions and the Huns, this weapon was called "六". Its main purpose is as literally understood. When encountering an enemy, pull it out and throw it out with force. If used well, it can often produce miraculous effects.

After all, the main combat method of contemporary cavalry is nothing more than hedging with one hand or dismounting and shooting.

When hedging with hand and blades, this short-range long-range throwing weapon can indeed help the cavalry gain a certain advantage.

However, the Hun cavalry now generally no longer carry such weapons.

They switched to a smaller sharp knife.

This is because the bronze skulls of the Huns never played a role in the battle between the Han army!

The large number of crossbows equipped with elite Han army forces dispelled the Huns' idea of ​​throwing spears against the enemy in a minute. Instead of doing that, it would be better to rush to the enemy with a stern!

"This is Taiyuan..."

"One of the largest cities in the north of the Han Dynasty..."

In the center of the mission, a noble man in fox fur whispered to the young nobleman sitting in the middle of the carriage: "As you can see, this city is said to have a population of 100,000, and within hundreds of miles around, hundreds of thousands of people are still farming for the Han Dynasty..."

"One hundred thousand?" The young man was slightly surprised when he heard this: "Akaya City plus slaves, there are only one hundred thousand people!"

"You are right!" The nobleman of Fox and Qiu sighed: "But this is just a county town in the Han Dynasty!"

"It is said that there were more than a hundred counties in the Han Dynasty..."

"It's so big!" the young man sighed: "No wonder the Han Dynasty was able to defeat the Huns!"

The nobleman fox fur listened and was slightly respectful, but did not answer.

But a smile flashed in his blue eyes.

"Kunmo asked me to come to the Han Dynasty, just to tell me if the Han Dynasty is very powerful?" The young man picked up a glass of wine, then looked at the yellow wine in the wine glass, and smiled and said, "I already know that the Han Dynasty is very powerful..."

"I know this too if it is not used in the Han Dynasty!"

The power of Han is not described in words or words.

But it is a renowned reputation made by numerous corpses!

More than 20 years ago, when the Western Regions first came into contact with this powerful empire that emerged from the East, they had already tasted the taste of Han cavalry.

Zhao Ponu destroyed Loulan with eight hundred cavalry and directly passed away.

It shocked the whole world, and countless people knew from that moment that the world welcomed a new master.

The Dayuan War even told everyone that as long as the Han Dynasty was willing, their horse hooves could ignore the limitations of physical distance.

Moreover, the determination of the Han Dynasty was greater than anyone imagined!

So much so that although the Dayuan War had ended for more than ten years, the Dayuan Kingdom still surrendered to the Han Dynasty and sent envoys on time to deliver the tribute tribute to the Great Wall.

Even if the Huns blocked the road, they would send tribute to Wusun and handed over a humble and almost servile letter to the Han princess in Wusun.

Five years ago, the King of Dayuan, Yan Liu, died of illness, and the people of Wan did not dare to establish a new king privately. They immediately sent someone to welcome Yan Liu's nephew Chanfeng from Chang'an, Han Dynasty, and then sent one of the younger brothers of Chanfeng to Chang'an.

Therefore, for the Western Regions, the Han Dynasty was a giant who could fall from the sky at any time, with thunder and anger.

Everyone knows that rashly offending the Han Dynasty is like seeking death!

But……

"It is precisely because of this that Wusun should have kissed the Huns, right?" the young man murmured in a low voice: "Xian Kunmo Liejiaomi once said: If you are too close to the sun, you will be burned to death!"

"So, Kunmo decided to break away from the alliance with the Huns and turn to get along with the Han Dynasty, in order to maintain the independence of the Wusun!"

"Now, that's the same!"

"Han is the sun, and it is much bigger than the Huns!"

"It's much better than the Huns!"

"Can Wusun still be independent if it is too close to such a sun?"

When he said this, a trace of harshness flashed in the young man's eyes.

For Wusun, its own living environment is actually very harsh!

Although Wusun is now a great country that both Han and Huns compete to be in harmony, they control 80,000 or 90,000 yuan, independent of the Western Regions, control the vast grasslands, and have a significant voice in the entire region.

but……

Wusun’s foundation is too shallow!

Even the concept of the Wusun tribe is based on duckweed, just like the willows in the Gobi Desert, which may be buried in the desert at any time!

After all, after all, the Wusun Kingdom is just a kingdom made up by power.

The real Wusun has been completely annihilated in more than a hundred years.

Now Wusun is just a bloated giant who, with the support of powerful power, put together people from all sides!

This can be seen from the population structure of Wusun.

Among the 300,000 males in the Wusun Kingdom, one-quarter of them had Yuezhi blood, one-quarter of them had Suemen's blood, and half of them had Suemen's blood, and the remaining half of the population was the mixed race of the Xiongnu, Donghu, Yuezhi, and Suemen.

Even his heir has half of the Hun blood!

Therefore, in Wusun, the sense of identity is really very thin!

The Xishi and Xishi in Yuezhi are often not allowed to go to Chigu City.

The divisions are dirty and they are all the time to make a dog's brains come true!

Even the founding king and Xiankunmo, who was jointly supported by the Wusun tribes, did not have absolute power.

For such a kingdom, the primary goal of survival is actually to maintain its own independence.

You cannot be interfered with by external powers too deeply.

Just like when Wusun was oppressed by the Huns, it was almost suffocated!

The mistake is not the emergence of the Han Dynasty. Now Wusun has probably been annexed by the Huns!

But, the front door drives the wolf, and the back door enters the tiger!

Compared with the Huns, the Han Dynasty people were even more terrifying in the eyes of this young man!

It's even more terrifying!

The Huns could only use force to coerce Wusun at most.

As long as the tribes remain united, the Huns will have no chance!

But the Han Dynasty is different, very different!

The horses in this country are fierce, but the culture is even more fierce!

His uncle Weng Guimi was a famous warrior and wise man in Wusun. He was very smart and brave since childhood, and even the Huns were afraid.

However, such a warrior has been fascinated by the women and culture of the Han Dynasty.

If you open your mouth all day, it means you say, and if you keep your mouth shut, it means you are Mencius...

He even abandoned the tradition of the Wusun people and ordered people to build the palaces of the Han Dynasty and live in a comfortable stone house.

In just ten years, the warrior's weight has doubled and he is so fat that he can't walk.

The nobles in China called him the "Fat King".

It's simply a shame!

It doesn't matter!

The important thing is that because Kunmo took the lead, the nobles in Akagu City followed.

Now, in Chigu City, everyone has a wide range of hats and robes, and likes to use silk as their clothes, and they must eat meat and meat.

They even learned from the Han Dynasty people, reclaiming fields, planting crops, building manors outside Chigu City, and living a settlement life, leaving the tradition of Wusun behind.

They play like this, and in a few years, everyone in Wusun will probably learn the culture of the Han Dynasty, wear the clothes of the Han Dynasty, and live the lives of the Han Dynasty people.
To be continued...
