Chapter 119 Three Thousand Beauties, the Princess Seeks Peace [Must Read Chapter]

In the second year of Daxin Lingwu, on the eleventh day of the first lunar month.

Guli Peiluo, the Khan of Huairen of the Uighur Khanate, personally led 150,000 Western Regions coalition forces to ambush the Longcheng Jingnan army led by Jin Wang Chen Huaian at Shama Town, a territory of Shule City, an important town in Anxi. The two sides fought fiercely for several hours outside Shama Town.

In the end, the 150,000 Western Regions coalition forces under Guli Peiluo were defeated, with more than 100,000 killed and captured.

Only the Khan of Huairen of the Uighur Khanate, the commander of the Uighur Imperial Guard, Barhu, and more than a thousand remnants escaped by chance and fled all the way back to the Uighur capital of Harabalegas.

The siege of Qiuci City, one of the four towns in Anxi, was lifted without a fight.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of the same year, the Lantern Festival.

The 30,000 elite cavalry led by Huo Qubing, the general of the Longcheng Army, traveled thousands of miles to support Yutian Town, one of the four towns in Anxi.

The Western Regions coalition led by the Uighurs was defeated outside the city of Khotan, and a great victory was achieved in Khotan.

So far, the four towns of Anxi, which had lost contact with the Anxi General Army and the Daxin court since September of the first year of the Daxin Jian'an period, when Tubo invaded Hexi and Longyou, finally returned to the actual control of the Han ethnic dynasty.

The only difference is that the Anxi frontier army (including the four towns of Anxi), which had once been loyal to the Zhao family of the Daxin Dynasty, has now changed its allegiance and become part of the Longcheng Jingnan Army under the command of Jin Wang Chen Huaian, holding high the banner of "clearing the emperor's side and eliminating treacherous officials".

This day.

Among the four towns of Anxi, the closest to the Western Regions on the Silk Road and bordering the Uighur Khanate, in Qiuci City, Jin Wang Chen Huaian summoned the generals of his Longcheng Army to discuss the matter of sending troops to conquer the Western Regions.

General's Mansion, in the meeting hall.

The Dragon City generals who attended the event in casual clothes were all in high spirits.

Especially the Western Expedition General Lan Yu, whose face could not hide his excitement.

During the days when the army was resting in Qiuci City, he had already found out that the princess of the Huihe Khanate's Khan Guli Peiluo was a beautiful young woman famous in the entire Western Regions. She was still charming after half a year.

When he followed Jin Wang Chen Huaian to help the important towns in Anxi, under the constraints of military discipline and conscience, Lan Yu was able to remain rational and did not harm the Han people in the important towns in Anxi.

But then, the expedition to the Western Region Huihe Khanate was a legitimate conquest of the enemy country.

For General Lan Yu, the exotic tribes with blond hair, blue eyes and high noses in the Huihe Khanate were no psychological burden at all.

How did the saying go? It was called: Those who are not of my race must be killed.

Therefore, Lan Yu could not help but begin to look forward to and fantasize about the day when he broke through the Uighur capital Harabalegas and attacked the Uighur palace.

"Report--"

"Your Highness, Prince Jin, an urgent military report from the deputy marshal of the Dragon City Army!"

In the meeting hall, Chen Huaian had not yet started today's agenda, but he received an urgent military report from Chen Qingzhi from Chang'an Prefecture.

Oh?

Chen Huaian took the battle report from the messenger and read it at a glance.

As he read the content of the letter, the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

Chen Qingzhi reported that the Dragon City Black Armor Army led by him had successively recovered Hexi and Longyou states, and defeated the Tubo Zamp Dama.

As of the Lantern Festival, the Tubo bandit army that invaded the border had been completely driven out of the Han border.

Chen Qingzhi came to report to Jin Wang Chen Huaian that he would personally lead his Xuanjia Army to pursue the victory and attack the Tubo capital in one go, and completely incorporate the territory of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau into the territory of Jin Wang's fiefdom.

"Everyone, good news!"

Finally, Chen Huaian raised the letter in his hand and stood up to say to the generals in the meeting hall: "Deputy Marshal Chen Qingzhi reported that Longcheng Xuanjia Army was unstoppable and defeated the Tubo bandit army that invaded our Han border."

"As of the Lantern Festival, the Xuanjia Army has recovered Hexi and Longyou states, and completely drove the Tubo bandit army out of our Han border!"

Speaking of this, Chen Huaian raised his voice and continued: "The deputy marshal said that he would lead the Xuanjia Army to take the Tubo capital in one go and incorporate the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau into the territory of Jin Wang's fiefdom!"

"Good!"

"Jin Wang is mighty!"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a cheer in the meeting hall.

Especially Fan Wuji, the chief general of the Iron Buddha of Longcheng, shouted the loudest.

As one of the first generals of the Po Lu Army who followed Chen Huaian to raise troops to quell the rebellion, Fan Wuji, who witnessed and participated in the campaigns of His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin, seemed to have seen the day when Chen Huaian, the Prince of Jin, ascended the throne and became emperor.

He also saw the day when he was made a marquis, appointed a general, and his wife and son were given titles.

Although the words and expressions of the other generals of Longcheng were not as exaggerated as Fan Wuji, they all knew it well and looked forward to it.

The day when the ministers who followed the dragon were made marquises and appointed generals would not be too far away!

Chen Huaian raised his hand and pressed it down, signaling the generals to be quiet.

Then, he continued: "Everyone, Deputy Marshal Chen Qingzhi led the Black Armor Army to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to expand the territory for the King of Jin. This king and you cannot relax, let alone call off the troops."

"This time, this king personally led the troops to the Western Regions, not only to relieve the siege of the four towns of Anxi, but also to completely make the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions submit to our Han people."

"Until today, this established strategic goal has only been half completed!"

"So-"

Chen Huaian changed the subject and said: "This king has decided that the army will stop resting from now on, and the troops will be divided into two routes to march towards the Uighur Khanate and meet at the capital Harabalgas!"

"Lan Yu!"

"I am here!"

Chen Huaian said: "This king orders you to lead an army of 100,000 and march along the Kerulen River. The Huihe people and civilians who are willing to surrender to this king are welcome along the way; those who try to resist to the end will be resolutely eliminated without any mistakes!"

Lan Yu immediately stood up and accepted the order excitedly: "I accept the order!"

Chen Huaian said again: "Pang Xianchu, Fan Wuji, Tan Li!"

"I am here!"

The three of them stood up in unison, straightened their backs and waited for the order.

Chen Huaian said: "This king orders you three to lead the Longcheng troops and the Anxi border troops, and march along the Seleng River with this king, marching all the way westward, and directly take the Huihe capital Harabalegas, without any mistakes!"

"I accept the order!"

The three of them accepted the order again in unison.

Chen Huaian continued: "Gao Jialin, the garrison of Kucha..."

......

The capital of the Huihe Khanate, the ancient city of Harabalegas

In the magnificent palace, the Huihe Khanate's Khan Guli Peiluo was lying on the luxurious bed in his bedroom. His face was pale, his eye sockets were sunken, and he was barely breathing.

Since the 300,000 Western Regions coalition troops were exhausted in a battle, Guli Peiluo has never recovered.

At the beginning, he was knocked unconscious from behind by Alba, the commander of his imperial guards, and was tied to a horse to escape and survive.

When Guli Peiluo woke up, he had already lost the game and there was no way to save the situation.

In desperation, he had to accept his tragic defeat.

After returning to the capital, he fell seriously ill. The royal family visited famous doctors in the Western Regions, but they still could not cure him.

Guli Peiluo was getting thinner day by day, and he might die at any time.

On this day, another famous doctor in the Western Regions entered the bedroom of Khan Huairen to treat Guli Peiluo, who was barely breathing.

Outside the palace, Guli Peiluo's eldest son Moyanchuo and a group of Uighur court officials were anxiously waiting for the doctor's diagnosis of Huairen Khan.

Not long after, the Western Regions doctor finally hurried out of Huairen Khan Guli Peiluo's palace.

As soon as he left the palace, he immediately knelt down and cried, crying and shouting: "Huairen Khan, passed away!"

Buzz!

This news, like a bolt from the blue, exploded in the palace and the court of the Uighur Khanate.

In the second year of Lingwu in Daxin, on February 2, the dragon raised its head.

Huairen Khan Guli Peiluo of the Uighur Khanate passed away, and his eldest son Moyanchuo succeeded to the throne in front of the coffin, with the honorific title of Yingwu Khan!

With Guli Peiluo's death and Moyanchuo's succession, the entire Uighur Khanate fell into an unprecedented sad atmosphere.

February 8 of the same year.

General Lan Yu of the Longcheng Army marched westward along the Kerulen River in the Huihe territory, sweeping across the Huihe garrisons with overwhelming force, and heading straight for the Huihe capital Harabalagas.

The Longcheng Army led by Jin Wang Chen Huaian was also not idle, but marched westward from the Seleng River, and captured more than ten Huihe cities in a lightning speed, and headed straight for the Huihe capital Harabalagas.

In just over half a month, half of the Huihe Khanate fell into the hands of Jin Wang Chen Huaian.

When the news was passed back to the Huihe capital Harabalagas, the heroic Khan Mo Yanchuo in the palace, as well as the civil and military officials of the Huihe court were all shocked and panicked.

In the capital, the wealthy families and royal nobles have already started to pack up their gold and silver, preparing to move west with their families before the Han army besieges the city.

In the Huihe Palace, the heroic Khan Mo Yanchuo is summoning civil officials and military generals to discuss how to resist the unstoppable Han army in Longcheng.

At the court meeting, the elderly Huihe Prime Minister proposed: "Khan, at this point, in order to avoid the destruction of the Huihe Khanate, the only way is to submit to Jin Wang Chen Huaian!"

As soon as this proposal came out, someone immediately whispered: "Is it too late to negotiate peace now? At the beginning, Khan Huairen instigated the Western Regions to jointly send troops to the four towns of Anxi, intending to annex the important Han towns on the Silk Road, which was originally a violation of the Han people's reverse scale."

"Now, Chen Huaian is leading a large army to attack my Huihe capital in two ways. It is clear that he is going to destroy my Huihe country!"

The Yingwu Khan Mo Yanchu also nodded and said: "Prime Minister, is it too late to negotiate peace with Chen Huaian now?"

The old prime minister touched his gray beard and said wisely: "Khan, there is no time for peace, only the weight of the chips."

"Take advantage of The Uighur Khanate can still offer it now, so it is the best policy to negotiate peace as soon as possible! "

"Otherwise, when the country is almost lost, you can't even offer the bargaining chips when you want to negotiate peace!"

Hearing this, Mo Yanchu immediately asked humbly: "Then according to what the Prime Minister said, what kind of bargaining chips should be used to exchange for the return of Jin Wang Chen Huaian?"

The old Prime Minister said word by word: "The princess will marry, 3,000 young women will be given as dowry, 10,000 good horses from the Western Regions, 100,000 cattle and sheep, and-"

"The Uighur Khanate has always regarded Jin Wang Chen Huaian as the suzerain, guarding the Silk Road for Jin Wang and ensuring that the Silk Road along the Western Regions is unobstructed!"

Yingwu Khan was shocked and asked in disbelief:

"What did you say, Prime Minister? Let this Khan's daughter, Princess Pijia, go to marry, and also bring 3,000 young women as dowry?"
