God-level Great Hunjun System

Jiang Ziya then said slowly: "The veteran believes that there are three reasons for attacking the Western Regions first."

"First of all, it is natural that the Western Regions are divided into many small countries, and they are not united with each other, so it is suitable for us to defeat each other."

"Secondly, the Western Regions have always been a battleground for military strategists. In history, the Huns, Turks, and Tatars have left their traces here. Occupying this place is tantamount to cutting off the relationship between Rouran and the Huns. The escape route to the west. When His Majesty sends troops to these two in the future, he can force them to flee north to the Golden Horde and the Slavs, so that they will never be able to make a comeback!"

"These three times, once the Western Regions are captured, His Majesty will open the trade routes westward to Persia and Saracen. You can also take a detour to the Peacock Empire, and even lead to Rome, Frank, and Teutonic further west. This This road can bring endless wealth and resources to our country!"

At this time, Yan Hao suddenly said: "There is a fourth point, the top horse of the Western Regions, I will also decide!"

Chapter 244 Legend of the Western Regions

Jiang Ziya agreed after hearing the words: "Your Majesty is right, the war horses of the Western Regions are also an important factor worthy of our consideration. The reason why the old minister suggested attacking the Western Regions first is that after we have the war horses of the Western Regions, we can then attack the two horsebacks of Rouran and the Huns. The nations above will be even more powerful!"

"Okay!" Yan Hao clapped his hands, thinking that he was going to expand the territory, and the beauties, horses and jewels of the Western Regions were all at his fingertips, so he couldn't help getting up and pacing back and forth in the room excitedly.

"In this way, we are going to use a four-pronged approach. We must not only attack the Western Regions, but also restrain mergers, reform the way of obtaining scholars, and start to get involved in Jianghu affairs. Each of these will cost a lot of money, so this In the battle to attack the Western Regions, the expenditure must be minimized!" Yan Hao said.

At this time, he turned to Zhang Feng, the chief minister: "Zhang Aiqing, is the treasury money and food enough to support us in launching a war to annex the Western Regions in the near future?"

Zhang Feng said: "Your Majesty, the harvests across the country are good at present, but because the recent famine relief has consumed a lot of food and grass, so if we start a war immediately, we can only control the number of soldiers and horses within 5 to ensure the supply of food."

"However, if we wait until after the autumn harvest to start the war, I am confident that our granary will be enough for His Majesty to send more than 40 troops to the Western Regions!"

Zhang Feng is a senior farmer, and no one here is more expert in food issues than him. When Zhang Feng said that the number of expeditions can only be controlled within 5 people, all the ministers immediately discussed.

"Although Zhao Yun, Li Jing, Li Cunxu and other generals all have the courage of ten thousand men, but the vast land of the Western Regions, if you want to use only 5 people to quell it, it is too strong."

"Yes, 5 people want to pacify the Western Regions. The risk is too great. Wouldn't it be safer for His Majesty to wait until this year's autumn harvest to launch a war?"

Jiang Ziya also said: "It's just that the weather conditions in the Western Regions are bad. After the autumn harvest is over, it will be winter. Expeditions to the Western Regions in the severe cold are even more impossible. It seems that the plan to conquer the Western Regions can only be delayed until next year."

Yan Hao listened and shook his head: "Soldiers are expensive and fast. Now that the Xiongnu and Rouran have temporarily stopped their flags and drums, the forces of all parties in the Western Regions are the weakest. It is a good time to win in one fell swoop. If we wait until next year, we may not be able to However, if countries such as China and Tubo intervene again, the plan to conquer the Western Regions will come to naught again."

"But Your Majesty, the Western Regions are so vast that it is really difficult to use 5 people to settle the universe." Even Wang Meng came out to persuade him at this time.

"Who said that!" Yan Hao became anxious when he heard that, "As for the small countries in the Western Regions, Ban Chao can take care of them with 36 people!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked!

"Ban Chao? Your Majesty, who is Ban Chao who can conquer the Western Regions with only 36 people?" Wang Meng asked in surprise.

Of course, it is impossible for Wang Meng in history not to know the famous Ban Chao in the Han Dynasty, but as a summoned character, the system has erased his history-related memories, which is why he is so surprised.

In fact, don't blame Wang Meng for being so surprised. Even if Yan Hao has read history, he still feels like dreaming when he thinks of Ban Chao's feat.

Ban Chao's experience of pacifying the Western Regions is completely a miracle in the history of world diplomacy and military history!He initially only took 36 people to the Western Regions. What can 36 people do?In the eyes of normal people, 36 people form a mission, and it would be great if they can establish good diplomatic relations with countries in the Western Regions.

But Ban Chao didn't think so.With these 36 people, he even launched a night attack on the Xiongnu mission in Shanshan!You must know that the Huns are strong, brave and good at fighting.But Ban Chao relied on the fact that the opponent could not see clearly how many people were attacking by the enemy at night, so he bluffed and completely defeated the Huns' mission, and even beheaded the Huns' envoy!

After this battle, Shanshan surrendered to Ban Chao's admiration, and surrendered to the Han Dynasty.This is Ban Chao's first mission to the Western Regions, and he conquered a country with 36 people!On the second mission, Dou Gu wanted to send more troops to Ban Chao, but Ban Chao insisted on continuing to take more than 30 people to the Western Regions, and in this way he pacified Tian, ​​Shule and other countries.

Although he didn't have a big Han army around him, he relied on the deterrence of the Han country to adopt a diplomatic strategy of "using barbarians to control barbarians" in the Western Regions, and used the troops of the Western Region countries that surrendered to the Han Dynasty to deal with the Western Region countries that did not accept the Han Dynasty. During the peak period, more than 50 countries were attached to Dahan!

In the end, the imperial court saw that Ban Chao's achievements were so awesome that they couldn't justify not giving any assistance, so they sent more than 1000 troops to support Ban Chao.Relying on this little force and the Allied Forces of the Western Regions, Ban Chao fought north and south, swept the Western Regions, successively conquered Qiuci, Gumo, Wensu and other countries, and finally unified the Western Regions, and was named the Protector of the Western Regions by the imperial court!

Later generations praised and said: "Chaosui surpassed Congling and reached the county level. He has been in and out for 22 years, and he has never been obedient. He changed his king and sued his people. He does not move in China, does not bother soldiers, and has the peace of far and barbarians. He has an unconventional heart, and he will be punished by heaven, and he will be ashamed to avenge the soldiers." Such a reputation is appropriate.

It can be said that Ban Chao's experience of conquering the Western Regions is one of the biggest legends in this land, which can be compared to the magical story of Gao Xianzhi running thousands of miles in the Western Regions and crossing the frontier.

Chapter 245 The Ability to Know People

Thinking of this, Yan Hao suddenly slapped his thigh, that's right, if that's the case, it's enough to recruit Ban Chao!

As far as large-scale group battles are concerned, it is obviously impossible for Ban Chao to compete with top players like Li Jing and Li Cunxu.However, there are specializations in the art industry, and the results will be completely different if the comparison is made with a limited condition.

If 40 soldiers and horses are given, Li Jing and Li Cunxu may be invincible gods of war, but if only 5 soldiers and horses are placed on the vast land of the Western Regions, what is needed is not only military means, but also diplomacy Talent and strategic vision, as well as familiarity with the national conditions of the Western Regions.And none of these can surpass Ban Chao!

What's more, conquering the Western Regions is not just as simple as conquering it. With the geographical conditions of the Western Regions extending in all directions, it may be coveted by all parties at any time in the future. There is no big enough big guy here to control the market. Once it is laid down, it is likely to be thrown away in a few years.

After much deliberation, all these things show that only by recruiting Ban Chao can the current problem be solved.

So Yan Hao took a look at the current exchange point requirements for the hero card. Sure enough, it has increased from the original 1.2 to 1.5, and it is estimated that it may increase to 2 next time!So now he can no longer summon heroes as casually as before. If there are not enough useful heroes, it is better not to recruit them, and it is better to reserve a spot for future recruits.

But in view of the current situation, 1.5 recruits a Banchao and gives him a Western Region as a gift, which is equivalent to 1.5 in exchange for a super-large territory equivalent to the land area of ​​several provinces in the Great Wei.

Recruit, recruit immediately!

When Yan Hao got excited, he wanted to click the redemption button in the system mall on the spot. Of course, this was impossible, because he didn't have so many points now!

But this time, the rewards for any one of the missions are more than 2 points. As long as one can complete a mission as soon as possible, there is absolutely no need to worry about the points of a hero card!

So Yan Hao immediately said to Zhang Feng and Jiang Ziya: "Zhang Aiqing, start raising food, grass and military pay from now on, ma'am, come here to prepare for the dispatch and mobilization before the war. I will send troops to the Western Regions within a month!"

Jiang Ziya said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, is this a little too hasty?"

Even Wang Meng, who has always been very supportive of Yan Hao's ideas, remonstrated: "Your Majesty, although I am not talented, I think I have some resourcefulness. If you let me use [-] troops to quell the Western Regions, I think I will never be able to do it." Yes. But I don’t know what kind of hero you are talking about, Ban Chao, who can accomplish such a feat?”

Yan Hao said: "Jing Lue, after all, your talent is in planning and winning thousands of miles away. And the Ban Chao I am talking about is a good player who is personally on the scene and has the right and wrong. It can't be compared like this."

Ge Jianzhang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Your Majesty, if you say that even the Chief Assistant cannot do one thing, there are still people in the world who can do it. I won't believe it."

Yan Hao laughed loudly when he heard this, pointed to everyone and said: "You guys, when it comes to Jinglue, everyone respects them like gods, but do you remember that a year ago he was not the chief assistant you all respected, but just a The little-known Bachelor of Longtuge, but he is fighting all the officials in the court!"

After finishing speaking, he patted Jiang Taigong on the shoulder and said: "Who would have thought that the octogenarian Taigong was born, and I sent him to Shanhaiguan for the first battle, and finally helped General Qi Yun defeat the Xiongnu and establish Great work, now he has become the head of the entire military department!"

"My current right-hand man and right-hand man are all appointed by me against all opinions. Now that you have seen their talents, what reason do you have to stop me?"

When everyone heard this, there was really no way to refute Yan Hao!

If Baiguan dared to speak out boldly in many aspects, then there was one aspect that they, including a wise man like Wang Meng, could not find any fault with Yan Hao-that is, employing people!

From last year to the present, Wang Meng, Fan Li, Jiang Ziya and other important figures in the imperial court, which of them were not criticized when they first took office, but after working for a while, their talents won the admiration of everyone?It shows that Yan Hao's employment skills as a king have indeed reached perfection!

However, only Yan Hao himself knows that this is because he has no ability to know people. In fact, these characters he summoned are among the best in history, and they can shine in any dynasty or generation!

Take Ban Chao as an example. With 36 people and more than 1000 reinforcements from the Han Dynasty, the Western Regions can be pacified. Yan Hao doesn't believe that he can't handle it now that he is given 5 people.If it really can't be done, there will be no Ban Chao who has repeatedly performed miracles in history.

Seeing that Yan Hao said so, the ministers had no choice but to obey his wishes, and Jiang Ziya and Zhang Feng each took over their own tasks.

Yan Hao continued: "Since the candidates and plans for the expedition to the Western Regions have been settled, the discussion on this matter is basically over. The specific matters for the expedition will have to be decided after I invite Mr. Ban Chao to come."

Chapter 246 Appoint Yu Qi

"Then, let's move on to the other three things."

"Fan Li, tell me, what do you think about curbing land mergers across the country?"

Fan Li bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, forgive me for being ignorant. I haven't thought of a particularly good solution yet. I think that the solution to the land annexation problem is nothing more than two things. One is to prohibit the landlords and relatives from stealing the land from now on, and the other is to transfer the land that has already been acquired. The merged land is recovered through various methods.”
