Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

So soon, the second wave of musket salvo rang out again.

Wang Jian pressed the trigger in his hand hard, looked at his target through the crosshairs, fell to the ground and lost his life a few seconds later, a very complicated feeling suddenly surged in his heart.

When did killing someone become such a simple thing? Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

He didn't know the answer at all, but Wang Jian knew what he should do next.

That is to continue to fire bullets one after another, completely defeating all the enemies in front of you, so that they have no chance to continue to stand up.

If this is not the case, how can this army be worthy of coming here from all the way?

After two salvos, the Macedonian phalanx suffered heavy casualties.

You must know that the Macedonian phalanx is very densely populated due to the particularity of its own formation, but it is this dense positioning that in turn gives convenience to the Musketeers.

As we all know, the denser the position, the easier it is to be killed by the enemy. This is exactly the case with the current Macedonian phalanxes.

Therefore, after two rounds of musket salvos, most of the soldiers at the forefront of the Macedonian phalanx were basically either killed or injured and fell to the ground and lost their combat effectiveness.

In this way, the Macedonian phalanx in front collapsed directly, and only the Macedonian phalanx in the back still didn't know what happened, so they continued to move forward according to inertia.

Wang Jian looked at this scene, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly, revealing a smile.

"It seems that these Seleucids have indeed not learned the real lesson, let us continue to give these Seleucids a good look!"

After saying this sentence, Wang Jian continued to pretend without any words, and filled the ammunition in his hand.

In this boring killing, only the musket in his hand could make Wang Jian feel a little bit of warmth in his heart.

In the midst of such killings, Macedonia's 2 phalanx quickly collapsed.

There is no way to do this. You must know that according to the superpower of the Macedonian phalanx, it is necessary to approach the enemy first, and then use the bows and short spears in your hands to cause damage. But the problem now is that the Macedonian phalanx has not yet entered. The shooting range has already been massacred by the musketeers on the opposite side.

In other words, only the musketeers can reach the Macedonian phalanx, but the Macedonian phalanx can only watch the musketeers stare blankly.

It would be fine if it was liver sinusitis, but the comrades in front of him were ruthlessly harvested and killed by the musketeers one by one, and they died in a way that these Seleucid soldiers could not understand at all.

The psychological pressure caused by this is very huge, and in a short period of time, it completely crushed the psychological defense of these Seleucid Macedonian phalanx soldiers.

Seeing the soldiers of the Seleucid Macedonian phalanx in front of him scattered and fled in all directions, the governor as the chief general should have been very angry, but for some reason, he actually felt a lot more relaxed in his heart.

By the governor's side, many Seleucid generals have long been dumbfounded, all of them dumbfounded, completely unable to understand what happened in front of them.

"What exactly is this matter about?

Could it be that we were punished by the gods and sent this army from hell? "

"Great Zeus, this must be an army sent by the devil, otherwise how could he have done such a vile killing?"

Some people's eyes have already started to flicker, and they keep looking around, as if they are preparing to escape.

There is no way, the war in front of them has completely escaped the scope of their understanding.

2 of Macedonia's most elite phalanx soldiers attacked the enemy's 5000 seemingly harmless light infantry. It was supposed to be a big victory without any suspense, but now it turned into an unsuspecting victory for the opponent. massacre.

This kind of thing can happen, so how to fight the next battle?

Just when the governor and his Seleucid generals were in a state of disarray and didn't know what to do for a while, Zhao Kuo, who was on the opposite side, certainly couldn't let go of this opportunity.

Zhao Kuo yawned calmly, and said to Xiang Yan beside him: "It seems that I don't need to continue to command this war anymore, so you can be the commander-in-chief of your former enemy."

Xiang Yan understood immediately when he heard the words, and immediately issued the signal for the general attack.

So at the next moment, the remaining tens of thousands of cavalrymen of the Great Han Kingdom immediately divided into left and right wings, and outflanked the Seleucid soldiers and horses in front of them.

The corpses of countless cavalry riding horses and whipping horses splashed billowing smoke and dust, covering the sky and covering the sun, like two long dragons composed of sand and dust, sweeping towards the flanks of the Seleucid soldiers.

The Seleucids immediately noticed this scene and fell into a panic. Everyone subconsciously turned their attention to the Seleucid governor and prince in the center, hoping that he could turn the tide.

Governor Seleucid fell into silence, and did not speak for a long time.

At this time, King Wusun, who was standing not far from Governor Seleucid, had only two words in his heart—regret.

I really regret it. If I had known that the Great Han Kingdom was really so powerful, then what if Wusun Kingdom surrendered directly to the Great Han Kingdom?

But now that the war has reached this point, if you want to seek refuge again, the fool will know that it must be too late.

King Wusun was so upset that he didn't know what to do for a while.

King Wusun's heart is very chaotic here, and the hearts of the Seleucid generals over there are even more chaotic and anxious.

Finally, a Seleucid general couldn't help but urged: "Master Governor, we must find a way, otherwise if this continues, we will all be finished today!"

These words finally brought the Governor back to his senses. He seemed to have made up his mind and heaved a long sigh.

"Immediately issue an order to let all the soldiers in front defend on the spot, and then all the soldiers in the back retreat immediately."

After a brief silence and hesitation, Governor Seleucid finally made the decision to retreat.

Although judging from the current situation, only 2 Macedonian phalanx vanguard soldiers in the Seleucid army were defeated, but the Governor of Seleucid knew very well that if they did not retreat, what happened to these 2 soldiers would be What follows next for all Seleucid soldiers.

Even so, wanting to retreat is not a simple matter, so Governor Seleucid once again issued an order. He just wanted to abandon part of the front troops and cover most of the main force behind to retreat.

Now that he has made up his mind and made up his mind, Governor Seleucid no longer has any hesitation, and immediately retreated quickly surrounded by his personal guards and generals around him.

After all, he could see clearly and knew that the Han Kingdom on the opposite side had a large number of cavalry. It was still unknown whether he could survive the pursuit of these cavalrymen from the Han Dynasty.

After Seleucus announced the order to retreat, all the Seleucid soldiers suddenly became confused. They fled in all directions, scrambling to run towards the rear, only hating that their parents had lost two legs, and they were full of anger. I hope that I will not be caught up by the enemies behind.

After Zhao Kuo saw this scene, he couldn't help showing a surprised expression, and then this surprise turned into affirmation, and he nodded slightly.

"It seems that this season's Eastern Governor, he is also a very good guy. He was able to choose to retreat so decisively. In terms of courage, it is indeed very amazing."

Zhao Kuo's words are really not a deliberate compliment, but a truth from the heart.

You must know that Zhao Kuo has fought for so many years, and he has also seen countless opponents. Among these opponents, many people have clearly sensed that they are about to fail, but they are lucky and refuse to retreat, and eventually they even get involved.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, the Seleucid governor ran away and retreated directly. It seemed that he had abandoned his subordinates, but in fact it was the best way to preserve the vitality of the Seleucids at the moment, which is what people often say The strong man broke his wrist.

Beside Zhao Kuo, Xiang Yan also agreed: "Your Majesty said that this guy's running skills are indeed quite top-notch.

To me, if we can catch this guy this time, then we must interrogate him well and get all the information about Seleucus out of his mind. "

Zhao Kuo nodded with a smile when he heard the words, and said: "It should indeed be the case. You must know that these Seleucids are different from other barbarians. They were born in the Alexander Empire and considered themselves the successors of the advanced Greek civilization. We want to Assimilating such a nation is actually quite difficult.”

Xiang Yan thought for a while, and made a very serious suggestion: "Actually, I think that the number of these so-called Greeks and Macedonians should not be too many, so we can completely consider taking all the Greeks among the Seleucids. People and Macedonians were all killed, and the rest should be the people who originally lived on this land.

Since these people who originally lived in this land can be assimilated by the Greek Macedonians, they can of course be assimilated by our Han Dynasty. This way, it will save a lot of effort. I don’t know what your majesty thinks. ? "

After Zhao Kuo heard Xiang Yan's idea, the expression on his face suddenly became a little weird.

Although Xiang Yan's idea sounds like a very reckless idea that is destined to kill people, but if you think about it carefully, it seems that it is not impossible.

After all, civilization still depends on human beings to spread it. If all the human beings who controlled the power of civilization transmission were all killed, wouldn't the Greek civilizations that originally spread all over Central Asia disappear completely?

Central Asia in history to modern times is actually the civilization of a certain sect.

This sect actually adopted the method Xiang Yan said, replacing the Greek civilization with the simplest killings, and completely disappeared the Greek civilization that originally occupied the mainstream in Central Asia and the Western Regions, and became the dust of history.

Since some sects can use it, why can't Zhao Kuo use it?

After Zhao Kuo thought for a while, he suddenly laughed.

"There is no need to be so anxious for now, who knows what will happen in the future?"

For Zhao Kuo, killing is indeed possible, but it also depends on the specific situation.

Because now Zhao Kuo doesn't know exactly how many immigrants from Greece occupy the entire territory of Seleucus in Central Asia.

If the number of immigrants is too large, then such a method of direct killing will be too cruel, and it can only be chosen when the number of immigrants is very small.

Zhao Kuo breathed a sigh of relief, looked up and saw the sun still hanging high above his head, and said something with a smile.

"Now, let us enjoy this victory!"

Chapter 1135

By the time Zhao Kuo woke up in good spirits the next day, the results of the entire war would be announced.

This result can also be said to be without any suspense at all. The Han army led by Zhao Kuo once again achieved a huge victory in this war.

The Seleucid army in Wuhan plus more than 1 Wusun cavalry.

, The total number of enemy troops is about 6 people.

Among the more than 6 people, more than 4 were either captured or killed, and only more than 2 people were able to escape the battlefield.

The only thing that made Zhao Kuo feel a little regretful was that the Seleucid governor was also resisted to the death by his loyal guards, and finally got rid of the pursuit of the cavalry of the Han Dynasty and escaped successfully.

Xiang Yan therefore sent out an active request: "The king only needs to give me another 1 cavalry, and I will definitely be able to capture this guy back within three days."

Zhao Kuo thought for a while and said to Xiang Yan: "After all, you are the commander-in-chief of our former enemy, so don't take such risks. Now our most critical task is to completely consolidate this northern border, and other things can be delayed. Let's talk some more."

For Zhao Kuo, the successful escape of the Seleucid governor is actually not a major event worthy of attention. After all, the Seleucid Empire will perish sooner or later, and the governor will not be able to escape sooner or later.

Maybe it would be a good thing to use this governor to promote the prestige of the Han Dynasty and make more Seleucids choose to surrender.

After hearing what Zhao Kuo said, Xiang Yan naturally stopped insisting, but devoted himself to the new conquest.

The next new target of conquest is naturally the capital of Wusun Kingdom.

He said it was the capital city, but when Zhao Kuo saw the city, he couldn't help laughing: "The capital city of Wusun Kingdom is really small enough."

How small is it?

It is no exaggeration to say that any decent county town in the mainland of Dahan is bigger than the capital of Wusun Kingdom.

In this regard, Guilu, the former Wusun people's deadly enemy, naturally has the right to speak: "To tell you the truth, we cough, the Yuezhi people have been attacking the Wusun people in a steady stream over the years, so these Wusun people Basically, they have been driven by us all the time, this so-called capital is actually just a place they just occupied, so how can we talk about construction?"

When Guilu spoke, there was a hint of pride on his face.

If it weren't for the arrival of the Han Dynasty, the Yuezhi people without the Xiongnu as restraints would really have become the new overlords of the Western Regions.

Zhao Kuo nodded and said, "That's the truth, but then again, why don't these Wusun people have soldiers to guard the city? Could it be that they ran away?"

What Zhao Kuo didn't expect was that he was really right.

Half an hour later, Zhao Kuo entered the capital of Wusun Kingdom surrounded by many Han soldiers.

As for the defenders who were supposed to be here, they had already fled under the leadership of King Wusun, leaving only some low-level people who really had no way of escaping, hiding in each room, staring at the main road in horror. The Han army passed by slowly.

Zhao Kuo glanced at this dilapidated small town, and shook his head: "These nomads are good at destroying things, but what about construction?" It is not difficult to see that this was a pretty good small town originally, but now It was no different from the ruins, and the smell of all kinds of cow, sheep and horse manure was everywhere, which made Zhao Kuo feel like vomiting.

We must know that under Zhao Kuo's strong advocacy, China in this era has already built up the city's plumbing system in order to better discharge feces.

For example, the city of Imperial Capital has now begun to build a sewer system on a large scale, which is even more advanced.

Zhao Kuo frowned, and said to Xiang Yan and Gui Lu beside him: "You two will find some people who can speak the local language and recruit some migrant workers from the city. We will use food as a reward and let them give the city wall At the very least, it must be restored to its original state.”

In fact, Wusun people are still very good at choosing places. This capital is the capital of an autonomous region located here in China in later generations. The geographical location is undoubtedly very important.

Why build a city wall?

The answer is also very simple, because only the Han Dynasty has explosives in this world, so it is useless for the opponents of the Han Dynasty to build the city wall, but the city wall built by the Han Dynasty itself can still play a role in resisting the enemy.

On the other hand, recruiting local people as migrant workers is also a good means of appeasement.

First of all, this can clearly let these local people know that the Han Kingdom will not kill them.

Secondly, using food as compensation can help these local people live better.

Finally, the construction of the city wall can let the local people know that the Han Dynasty will be stationed here for a long time.

In this way, the local people will quickly choose to obey the ruling order of the Han Kingdom, and this place can become the fulcrum of the Han Kingdom in northern Xinjiang as quickly as possible.

After finishing this point, Zhao Kuo turned his attention to Mao Sui again: "You cast the net out as soon as possible, and ask the prisoners by the way to see if you can find the trace of King Wusun."

After all, the Seleucids were just outsiders, and they were driven away by Zhao Kuo before they had time to control the northern border, but King Wusun was different. Short also still imprinted the imprint of Wusun on this place.

From this point of view, Wusun Kingdom, like the previous Yuezhi Kingdom, is a target that Zhao Kuo must destroy.

Since the Wusun Kingdom is going to be destroyed, the Wusun King must be captured first.

Where is King Wusun?

At this time, King Wusun was heading west along the northern side of the Tianshan Mountains.

Because time was very tight, King Wusun didn't even have time to go back to the capital to find the Wusun tribe who stayed there, and he ran away with thousands of guards around him.

After two days, the original thousands of people have now become hundreds of people.

This undoubtedly made King Wusun quite irritable, and he got angry a lot more than usual.

On this day, King Wusun had just woken up from the temporary camp when he vaguely heard whispers outside.

"I heard about the Great Han Kingdom" "I feel like there is no hope." King Wusun snorted, and heard that the two sons who were guarding outside the tent were speaking, so he went out, kicked and roared angrily : "You two useless trash, what are you mumbling about here?"
