Chapter 93

"Mr. Wu An, what should we do with these prisoners?" Wang Ben asked as he watched nearly [-] prisoners approach Xiao Hong.

Although Qin Shihuang ordered no prisoners to be kept, so many people were executed, and Wang Ben hesitated.

Xiao Hong looked at the captured Donghu soldiers and Fuyu soldiers, thought for a while and said: "These captives are all high-quality manpower. It would be a pity to kill them all. Marquis Tongwu left [-] soldiers to guard these captives, and the rest of the soldiers continued to advance. , and wait until Donghu is completely conquered, thinking about how to deal with these captives"

To be on the safe side, Wang Ben left [-] soldiers to guard the prisoners, and continued to follow Xiao Hong with the remaining [-] soldiers.

Some of the Donghu soldiers who fled have returned to their respective tribes, and they have also brought back the news that the entire Donghu army was destroyed and the Donghu king died in battle. At this time, the Donghu tribesmen were panicked and were no longer able to organize effective resistance. , and Burigude, who had fled and returned, finally returned to Donghu.

"The king died in the battle?" Bu Rigude couldn't believe his ears. The 10,000+ army went out to fight, and the whole army was wiped out in less than two days, but the Qin army was not seriously injured. What should we do now.

King Donghu had six sons, and the death of King Donghu also led to a coup d'état by these six sons. Several parties broke out in a fierce conflict in the royal court in the hinterland of Donghu, which once again consumed Donghu's vitality. The [-] cavalry led by Li Xin finally arrived at the hinterland of Donghu and joined Wang Ben's army. At the same time, they brought Qin Shihuang's order to appoint Xiao Hong as the commander of this battle.

An army of 13 marched towards the royal court of Donghu. At this time, because the six sons of Donghu King were fighting for the throne, the entire Donghu had no organized and effective force to resist the Qin army. They were gradually eaten away by the Qin army, and finally surrounded by the royal court. Not alive.

"Jun Wu'an, the army has completely surrounded the Donghu Palace." Wang Ben, Li Xin, Ren Xiao and Tu Sui all gathered in Xiao Hong's tent to discuss countermeasures.

"How many people are there in Donghu's royal court now?"

"According to our Malai report, the number of sergeants in Donghu Royal Court will not exceed [-]. During this period, the six sons of Donghu King broke out in a big war. Now Donghu Royal Court is full of corpses, and Donghu's sergeants are all gathered in the royal court. Prepare to fight to the death near the king's account." Li Xin told Xiao Hong all the information he knew.

"Humph" Xiao Hong snorted coldly, "It seems that the temptation of power is really fatal. At this time, the sons of Donghu King are still free to fight for the throne. If this is the case, then tell the whole army to take a rest today and tomorrow morning To launch an attack on the Donghu Royal Court, remember that no one in the royal court can stay, especially the son of Donghu King must be killed in the royal court."

"Here..." All the generals bowed to accept the order, and withdrew from Xiao Hong's tent.

"I didn't expect the war to end so soon. Donghu couldn't help but fight, but the territory of Donghu and the Xiongnu is not small." Xiao Hong looked at the map and muttered to himself.

"Although the territory is quite large, it is still too far away from the Central Plains, so it is not easy to manage. Is there any way to manage this place well?" Xiao Hong fell into deep thought. Although the Great Qin destroyed the Xiongnu and Donghu, if the time is not taken to fully integrate this place into the Great Qin Soon there will be new nomadic forces taking root here, and they will grow into new enemies of Great Qin in the future.

"By the way, it can be like this." Xiao Hong remembered a game he played called Europa Universalis IV back then. Xiao Hong controlled Daming and attacked here, but in the end Xiao Hong chose to build the Protectorate. Daqin can also establish the Duhufu, and use the Duhufu to manage this place, which will not only strengthen Daqin's control over the various ethnic groups in the grassland, but also strengthen Daqin's national power.

The Duhufu first began in the Han Dynasty. After the Han Dynasty won a major victory in the war against the Huns, especially after Zhang Qian went to the Western Regions and Li Guangli conquered Dawan, he established the earliest Duhufu in order to bring the Western Regions into his rule. The government system, which replaced the power of the Huns, placed the north and south of Tianshan Mountains under the rule of the central government for the first time. The Duhufu was established in Wulei City, and the Duhufu also reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, there were six Protectorates of Anxi, Anbei, Andong, Annan, Shanyu and Beiting.

"Then this is located in the northeast of Great Qin, so it would be most appropriate to set up the Anbei Protectorate. At that time, Qin Shihuang only needs to send an army of [-] people to station here for decades, and then he can completely integrate this place into the Great Qin." sphere of influence, and the Duhufu can also help Daqin resist attacks from other tribes."

Xiao Hong couldn't help but get excited when he thought of this, because in Europa Universalis IV, which he played, the Duhufu was very powerful. As long as the Great Qin did not fall, the Duhufu would always be the vassal of the Great Qin.

However, in order to prevent the Protectorate from being separated from the Qin Dynasty a hundred years later, Xiao Hong felt that it was not only necessary to send sergeants and relocate the people, but most importantly, to send a prince to manage the Protectorate as a Protector. With this blood relationship, and the With Xiao Hong's existence, Da Qin's status as the suzerain state will never fall.

When the Qin Army launched an attack on Donghu the next day, Xiao Hong was writing a memorial to Qin Shihuang in his big tent. After all, for Qin Shihuang, the system of guarding the capital was suspected of enfeoffment, and Qin Shihuang, who unified the world and implemented the system of prefectures and counties, But I don't like the enfeoffment system very much. After all, it was because of the enfeoffment system that the Zhou Dynasty finally fell under the peak of the Qin Dynasty.

However, Xiao Hong still clearly stated all the benefits of the Duhufu system. He also made it clear that Daqin did not have so much power and tried its best to manage an increasingly larger territory. Send your own prince out to establish the Duhufu to replace Daqin to manage the world.

Moreover, the status of these princes in Xianyang is actually very embarrassing. Their status is lofty, but they have no power or influence, even inferior to some low-level officials in Xianyang. Besides, they are all the sons of Qin Shihuang. people.

"Your Majesty, the son of King Donghu led the army to surrender." Li Xin hurriedly came to Xiao Hong's tent and said.

"How many people are there in the royal court now?"

"About [-]"

"About [-]." Xiao Hong thought for a moment, and said, "Kill them all, and no one will be left alive." In order to ensure the smooth establishment of the Duhu Mansion, neither the son of Donghu King nor any of his relatives can stay, otherwise The future is just a time bomb that may explode at any time.

"Here." Without any hesitation, Li Xin conveyed Xiao Hong's military orders. To the Qin people, these people are all barbarians, and the Qin people would not feel any pity for them. If it wasn't for the number of Donghu soldiers captured before If it is too big, Wang Ben will kill them all without hesitation.
