God-level Great Hunjun System

Therefore, no matter from which point of view, it is very unwise for the two countries to go to war on a large scale.

With this in mind, Yan Hao, at Wang Meng's suggestion, sent a diplomatic letter to the emperor of the Saracen Empire, claiming that the encounter was just an accident, and he was willing to conclude a contract with Saracen.

Emperor Saracen was having a headache because of his failure at Zenaz, and was worried that he would attract another unnecessary enemy. Of course, he couldn't help but be overjoyed after receiving the letter.

In order to show his sincerity, he punished Mutasim, the governor of Tocharian who started the war without authorization, and returned the population and materials of Shanshan Kingdom to Wei.

The envoys of the two countries signed a treaty in Zenaz, so this treaty was also called the "Treaty of Zenaz" by later generations.

The treaty stipulates: 1) The two sides use the city of Chinaz as the demarcation line of power, and will not invade each other's territory; 2) Fugitives and criminals found crossing the border must take the initiative to repatriate them to their countries; 3) Both sides maintain friendly trade exchanges and are responsible for ensuring The personal safety of the opponent's caravan in its own territory.

The signing of the Zenaz Treaty was of great significance to Wei, and historians of later generations commented on it as follows:

The signing of the Zenaz Treaty avoided a strong opponent for the rising great Wei Dynasty, added a trading partner, and won valuable development opportunities for them.In contrast, although the Saracen Empire also benefited from the treaty, when they really faced the Great Wei Empire a few years later, they found that the enemy's strength was far from what it was at the beginning.

……

The Western Regions were established, and Ban Chao led the surrendered kings of the Western Regions back to the capital to meet the emperor.

Yan Hao welcomed Ban Chao, a great hero, back to Beijing with unprecedented grandeur.He placed a ten-mile-long silk and flowers at the gate of the capital, two rows of soldiers stood up to pay tribute to the triumphant troops, and countless beauties gave the returning heroes a wink.

Ban Chao's victory in the Western Regions not only excited the emperor Yan Hao, but also made the people all over the country cheer!

Since ancient times, expanding the territory has been one of the biggest achievements of an emperor, but Yan Hao actually pacified the 36 countries in the vast Western Regions at one time, completing a feat that has never been done in the entire Chinese history. Compliments with scholars?

On the Golden Luan Hall, dozens of kings from the Western Regions dressed in strange costumes filed in.

As Ban Chao's most loyal follower of the Great Wei during his time in the Western Regions, Khotan was very excited when he saw Yan Hao, and shouted loudly: "Great King, Lord of the Four Seas, Emperor of Great Wei, Protector of the Western Regions, please accept My most humble tribute!"

After all, King Khotan prostrated himself on the ground tightly.Other kings of the Western Regions also knelt down and shouted:

"Great King, Lord of the Four Seas, Emperor of the Great Wei, Protector of the Western Regions, please accept my most humble respect!"

"Hahaha!" Yan Hao laughed three times, "Please hurry up, everyone, I am a guest from afar, so there is no need to be polite!"

Immediately after Yan Hao saw Ban Chao's old but resolute face, he couldn't help but walked down the steps, held Ban Chao's hand tightly and said: "General Ban is very lucky, I want to thank you for calming down the Western Regions for me! !"

Ban Chao also choked up when he saw this, and didn't know what to say for a moment.In the past six months, he encountered countless difficulties and dangers and all kinds of unimaginable dangers in the Western Regions, which were resolved only by his resourcefulness and courage.But as long as you can get the appreciation and affirmation of the king, all these efforts are worthwhile.

This has been the case for loyal and righteous people since ancient times!

Chapter 309 Establishment of Anxi Road

Next, Ban Chao reported to Yan Hao the various achievements of the Western Expedition, and finally proposed to Yan Hao: "Your Majesty, although the Western Regions have been calmed down now, there are powerful enemies around it. For permanent control over the Western Regions, it is better to follow the practice of the ancient sage monarchs and set up the Western Regions Protectorate to govern the affairs of the Western Regions."

Yan Hao shook his head and said: "Ban Aiqing, all the opinions you put forward are very good, but I have a different opinion from you on this point."

Ban Chao was stunned: "I respectfully listen to His Majesty's oracle."

Yan Hao said: "Ban Aiqing, do you still remember what I told you before you set off?"

"I said, what I want is not just to pacify the Western Regions, but to conquer the Western Regions and completely bring the Western Regions into the territory of the Great Wei!"

"Throughout the history of China, the Western Regions have been occupied many times, but they were only managed as garrisons, unable to gain a firm foothold in the Western Regions. When the country is strong, the countries in the Western Regions will join, and when the country is weak, the countries will renounce. This cycle repeats endlessly. And this time, I want to permanently make the Western Regions a part of my Great Wei!"

After Yan Hao finished speaking impassionedly, he said to Wang Meng: "Jing Lue, come and announce our proposed strategy for the governance of the Western Regions."

So Wang Meng took out a piece of cloth from his bosom, and announced to everyone the policy for the Western Regions formulated by the cabinet.

The entire western region will completely become a very large province of the Wei Dynasty, named Anxi Road, and Anxi Road will set up eight counties, namely Hanhai County, Luntai County, Tianshan County, Yiwu County, Suiye County, and Kunling County. Counties, Congling County and Beiting County, of which Hanhai County is the west seat of Anxi Road, and Luntai County is the east seat of Anxi Road.

In addition to the eight counties, nine autonomous prefectures were established: Shanshan, Khotan, Dawan, Shache, Shule, Weitou, Gumo, Kangju, and Yanqi.The difference between autonomous prefectures and counties is that the heads of each county are dispatched by the imperial court and are directly under the jurisdiction of the chief envoy of Anxi Road.However, the head of the autonomous prefecture selects the great nobles in the original country for unified election and appointment.

The purpose of doing this is to maximize the support of the aristocratic forces in the Western Regions for the imperial court, so as to firmly control the Western Regions in the shortest possible time.On the surface, the autonomous prefecture has a certain degree of autonomy. In fact, the local garrison is completely managed by the military department, and various administrative affairs are also directly under the jurisdiction of various departments of Zhongshu Province. The actual autonomy is very limited.

In addition, the Western Regions, as the core area of ​​the Silk Road, needed to establish a prosperous commercial center as the commercial center of the entire Western Regions.For this reason, the imperial court decided to expand the former capital of Gaochang and make Gaochang a municipality directly under the Central Government.Just because Gaochang is located in the center of the Silk Road, it can better exert its economic radiation effect.

Yan Hao appointed Ban Chao as the political envoy of Anxi Dao and concurrently as the governor of Anxi Dao, which means that he alone controlled the military and political power of Anxi Dao.As a system character, Ban Chao cannot betray the lord under any circumstances, so Yan Hao can be completely assured of this arrangement, and at the same time, Ban Chao's talents can be maximized.

The issue of military strength in the Western Regions has also been repeatedly discussed by several generals in the Military Aircraft Department.

Jiang Ziya believes that the south of the Western Regions may be harassed by Tubo, and the east is staring at Rouran. The Golden Horde in the north may also climb the Altai Mountains and go south. It is even possible that the Saracen Empire tore up and jumped suddenly.

Therefore, compared with ordinary provinces, the defense force of Anxi Road must be stronger!

In view of this, the military department decided to dispatch 30 government soldiers to the Western Regions, and recruit 20 young and strong soldiers from the Wei Dynasty, and then reorganize and rectify the soldiers and horses of the original Western Regions, and select 10 elite soldiers. In this way, a total of 60 troops guard the Western Regions , of which 30 are the standing army, and 30 are the government soldiers of the garrison system.

The original population of the Western Regions was more than 1400 million, and Yan Hao had just used a Population Prosperity Card, so the Great Wei had grown a lot during this period, in order to be able to support Yan Hao's large-scale recruiting troops.

With these 60 soldiers and horses, the defensive power of the Western Regions is unprecedentedly strong, but Yan Hao told Ban Chao not to slack off because of this, and must establish a complete military system among the counties and states in Anxi, and make Anxi Road an indestructible Western Fortress, strong enough to deal with any threat from the enemy!

So far, the 17th Dao in the world has finally added an Anxi Dao, and the five conditions for raising the civilization level have also been fulfilled.Although it is still early for all five conditions to be met, in any case, a solid step has been taken towards this goal.

Chapter 310 Resource Reserves

After Ban Chao returned to Beijing, of course he didn't forget to donate to Yan Hao a large number of Hu Xuan dancers he got from Kang Juguo.All of these dancers are full of the style of the Western Regions, with enchanting figures and various styles. If they were before the big selection of show girls, they might all have the opportunity to enter the palace to serve the emperor.

But after the big selection of girls some time ago, even the most ordinary maids in Yan Hao's harem now have a beautiful appearance, which is far from being comparable to these dancing girls.Among this group of dancers, only the two most excellent beauties got Yan Hao's blessing. It has to be said that Yan Hao's elastic and fit legs clamped him to death.

Of course, Yan Hao would not just waste the hundreds of Hu Xuan dancers. He ordered Taichang Temple to set up a special dance art troupe, let these dancers perform and teach all over the country, and let the common people feel some of these dancers. The beautiful western style.

The arrival of these Huxuan dancers also allowed Yan Hao to complete the last unresolved task in the free task panel.

"Ding dong, the system prompts, congratulations to the host for completing the free mission 'Hu Xuan Dancing Girl', rewarding 3 points!"

"Ding Dong, since the host has completed all the free missions in the same batch, 20% of the mission point pool will be rewarded—1.7 points!"

This immediately brought Yan Hao nearly [-] points, and instantly bulged his empty wallet.

Then Yan Hao checked the newly released free missions:

1) Daxing Literary Prison: The host must severely punish a group of intellectuals on the grounds of writing across the country.Bonus points: 5 points.

2) Indulging in gambling: The host needs to open a casino in the palace to attract concubines and princes and ministers to participate.Bonus points: 3 points.

3) Dog fighting competition: The host needs to raise more than one hundred canine animals and hold a dog fighting competition.Bonus points: 3 points + a beauty card.

The points rewarded by the new batch of free missions have increased again, but the content has not changed much. It is still some absurd and enjoyable foolish things.But with Wei's current national power and Yan Hao's control over the country, plus the fact that the ministers have become accustomed to Yan Hao's half-sage and half-faint character, it is not easy to complete gambling, dog fighting, etc. Not too difficult.

On the contrary, the task of "literary prison" caused some troubles to Yan Hao. After all, punishing a group of intellectuals with heavy punishments for just relying on some pen and ink matters will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among scholars.

But now Yan Hao didn't think so much, what he started to think about was how to spend the points in his hand!

Now that his accumulated points have exceeded [-] points, what super props can he exchange for?

After much deliberation, Yan Hao felt that it would be better to continue to increase the country's financial resources.

After all, Wei had just experienced an expansion of the army, and he was raising horses and building equipment, and the silver reserves in the treasury were falling down.And if it plans to use troops on a large scale next year, it will also burn a lot of money.
