In the western region, the northern foothills of the Kunlun Mountains, the vast south of the Taklamakan Desert, the sunset is shining on the beautiful poplar trees.

Zhang Liao rode on the elephant dragon, standing on the banks of the Niya River, and the winding Niya River disappeared into the desert.

Niya River is the mother river of the country, originating from the rugged Kunlun Mountains will Tag Glacier, from the south to the north, the upstream waves run, but not into the sea, but after four hundred miles of high temperature exposure, become calm and shallow, like a beautiful ribbon twists and turns on the yellow sand, moment by moment, gradually powerless, can no longer rush through those dwarf sand, and finally disappear in the vast sand.

There is no grandeur of the long river sunset, but it has a kind of gorgeousness.

The golden yellow and dark green huyang on both sides of the Niya River has become a signpost for locals to judge the river, and the green huyang said that the terrain there is slightly lower, the water is more abundant, and the yellow leaf huyang is the ground with less water.

Now it is four years since Jian'an, two years ago after winning Liangzhou, Zhang Liao did not use the army in the Central Plains, but put the main energy on the operation of the cold, through the Hexi corridor and the reconstruction of the Silk Road.

Although the two Han people opened the Silk Road, this road is not stable, especially since the post-Han Dynasty, a hundred years of chaos, has become the biggest disaster.

After Zhang Liao defeated Ma Teng Han Sui and won the Song Jian, the strong Han people in Liangzhou were no longer enough to fear, but there were still thousands of Qiangxuan tribes, all over Liangzhou, plus Yizhou, Hezhou and other places.

The East Han Dynasty has not used a hundred years without calm, mainly because the center of gravity of the East Han Dynasty is in Kanto, whether to throw away Liangzhou still has a lot of disputes, naturally will not try to calm down, and the force is already weak, the Yellow Towel before the dynasties before the imperial court force is very small, the Yellow Towel after the chaos of the imperial court, the two main forces of the imperial court is not only fifty or sixty thousand, not all of them to Liangzhou.

Now Zhang Liao is different, his center of gravity is in the northwest, the elite step into the Liangzhou, sweeping on all sides, cutting the chaos of the forces,

Although it was belligerent, it was not a blindly looting, but it was only the poor policy of the East Han Dynasty, which led to years of chaos, and since the period of several broken battles, the Qiang people were greatly injured, and the subsequent chaos was Ma Teng, Han Sui, Song Jian, and the Han people who were lucky, and Qiang Chen had become a follower.

After Zhang Liao Shi took the power of thunder, the Qiang people no longer had the strength to resist, but Zhang Liao did not kill, but to care for the same, Enwei, he will be in the north of many officials, including the former driving Zhang can be transferred to Liangzhou.

And the officials of the north who had settled and surrendered the Huns, had a lot of experience, and now they entered the cold, just for their use.

Coupled with the surrender of Ma Teng to persuade, Liangzhou settled down in the shortest possible time.

Then Zhang Liao took Xu Rong and Fan as the forward, and Wei Wei as the wings, personally took a trip to the Hexi Corridor to rebuild the Western Regional Capital.

The Silk Road is sandwiched between Tianshan and Kunlun Mountain, and around the Taklamakan Desert is divided into two north and south, along the way distributed in dozens of countries in the western region.

The Western Prefecta includes the entire Taklamakan Desert, which controls both the north and south of the Silk Road.

More than three hundred years ago, after the opening of the Silk Road, Hanwu Emperor established the Western Region Capital Protection Government in the western region, equivalent to a county of Han Han, which governs the 48 western countries east of Dawan and south of Wusun.

However, because of the remoteness of the region and the powerful Huns in the north, the Western countries have been oscillating between the two great powers of the great Han and the Huns, sometimes rebelling, and the Silk Road has not been stable for hundreds of years.

In fact, in the late Han Dynasty, the Han lost control of the western region, Wang Yan, the Huns took the opportunity to take the western region, the first rebel, Wang Yan ordered to attack, the Han army divided into two ways, all the way to Wang Jun as the western region ambassador, the left-wing rate of the five, and the western region are guarding Li Chong led the soldiers from the south, through the good to the captain, the whole country.The other way is to strike in the north; the other way is to lead five thousand soldiers by Sasuke Hefeng and his own school captain Guo Qin, from the north road, the driver rushed to the southwest.

With the deceit, Wang Jun put the score of the soldiers into the rut, Gu Mo, the captain plow, the needy national soldiers turned back, a total of attack on Wang Jun, the whole army is not, Li Chong returned to the tortoise, was killed by the same rebellious turtle.He Feng and Guo Qin's army came later, when the army had not completely withdrawn, Guo Qin led the army to kill his old and weak, and the soldiers retreated to the car division.He Feng and the Huns joint army attack car division, He Feng and Guo Qin fought alone, and finally because the food could not hold, so he withdrew to the Yumen Gate.

The Huns completely controlled the Stolen Countries, and although the most powerful Shachao countries in the South Province led the South Province to the South Province against the Huns, the Han Dynasty had lost control of the Western Region, and the Western Prefectures were left.

In the early years of Han Dynasty, General Luo Rong, stationed in Hexi, was ordered to Lisha Car Wang Kang as "the Lufthansa car to build the merit of King Huaide, the western region captain", Shachao country received the support of the big man, so take the opportunity to attack the western countries such as Turing, the western region is a mess.

At the same time, the northern countries of the western region were suffering from the re-enactment of the Huns' arbits, and the 18 princes, such as the former royal court, the teacher, and the others, sent protons to the service, and asked the Han to send all the guards to the western region to fight against the Huns.But at that time, Liu Xiu was stabilizing the situation in the Central Plains, and he did not have time to care for him, did not respond to the request of the Western countries, and returned his servants after the reward.

The South Daosha car could not be protected by Han, and then stepped up the attack on the good, turtles, Yushu and other countries.Yu Xuan led the countries to resist, captured the king of the Sha car and destroyed his land, and dominated the southern road after the country of Shacha.However, he was later defeated by the Huns and the Union of the North Province, which was attached to the Huns, and was forced to accept the guardianship of the Huns.

Since then, the entire north-south road of the western region has been completely subordinated to the Huns, and the Huns have recovered their strength and material resources in the western region as the rear of the southern invasion of the Han.

During the Ming Dynasty, the southern Huns were attached, and the Han Dynasty's political situation was stable and the economy was restored, so they turned to attack and attacked the northern Huns.Sui Gu and Geng Zhong led the army from Liangzhou to the Jiuquan, broke the Huyan king, occupied the western gateway Yiwulu, set up Yihedu lieutenants, and left the army to be stationed in Tunda.The following year, the former king surrendered to the son of the king and led the crowd to surrender.

At this point, the northern Huns forces withdrew from the foothills of Tianshan, and the Han Dynasty restored the protection of the western region, and the royal city of Jinpu City and the former Wang Dynasty Liuzhong City were stationed behind the chasm division to restore the passage to the western region.

However, the restoration of the western region at this time is only a small part of the easternmost side of the former Handu protectorate, and most of them are still under the supervision of the Huns.Therefore, Dou sent the false Simaban beyond the horse, so that he could contact the princes of the western region, so that they could kiss the Han Dynasty, and not be used by the Huns.

At the beginning of the recovery of the western region, there was no unified army, only thirty-six attendants, first to the South Province of the good country.The king began to be very polite to the class, and then suddenly slackened.Ban Chao judged that the northern Huns sent messengers, and then destroyed the Huns messengers with fire raids overnight, holding their heads to show the good king, fearing good, and surrendering to Han.

Ben Chao was successful in surrendering to good deeds, ascended to Sima, and was ordered to the west to Yushu.At this time, Yu Xuan was a pro-Hungarian force in the South Province, and the king of Xuan was very unsatisfied with the courtesy of the Ban Chao, and listened to the words of the demon, and asked for the horse of the Panchao to worship the god.The sherwit wants to be a witch to pick up a horse.And the witch, the super behead its head to the king.Yu Wang was shocked by the name of the good, and it was to kill the Huns and the Han.

After that, Benchao continued to follow the south road to Shule.The title of King Shule was erected by Turtlez, a non-national, a party of the northern Huns, who brutally oppressed the Shule people with the support of the Huns.Ben Chao mastered this situation, sent an emissary to seize the subject of the pocket, and another husband and nephew of the former king of Shule were king, and the enslavement of Kurz's to Schuler was lifted, so Shuler also belonged to the Eastern Han Dynasty.

At this point, the Silk Road, which had been interrupted for more than 60 years, was restored to the south.

The loss of slaves in the West is inevitable.In March of the 18th year of Yongping, the Northern Huns launched 20,000 cavalrymen, crossed the Tianshan counter-attack division, and surrounded Jin Pucheng and Liuzhong City.

In the same year, Han Ming Emperor died, and the northern country took the opportunity of the great mourning of the Han Dynasty to attack and kill the western region.And Turtle, Gu Mo and other countries have repeatedly sent troops to attack Shule, Ban Chao and Shule Wang Zhong are each other's horns, the end of the echo, in the Pantong City guarded.The northern Huns also counter-carried, and his school captain Geng Gong was also besieged.

The next year, that is, the first month of the first year of construction, the newly succeeded Zhang Emperor sent Geng Bingtun soldiers to bring in the spring, sending Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang three county soldiers and the Western region to send assistance, the division willow, the defeated car division and the northern Huns, the car division fell again.

However, due to the frequent rebellions in Wuling and Yizhou, earthquakes and other natural disasters, the next year, the burning and chaos, the remoteness of the western region, the big man was unable to hold the car division, and finally decided to give up the western region, so he revoked the protection and his own lieutenant, retreated Yiwu's Tuen Tian soldiers, and ordered the Han people stranded in the western region to return home, and Pan Chao was also among them.

The Han withdrew from the western region, and the countries of the South Province were terrified and afraid of the return of the northern Huns to retaliate.When Ban Chao was ordered to prepare to return to Beijing, Shule, Yu Xuan earnestly comforted, and Lieutenant Li Jong committed suicide by leading the knife.As for the Pan Chao, the king of the king of Xuan cried, and even hugged each other's super horse feet and did not let him go.

Ban Chao knows some areas of the South Road, can be credit, but determined to stay in the western region, Lema turned around, and returned to the Shule country where the north and south of the western end of the Silk Road meet.

At this time, Shule had two cities after the departure of the Panchao, re-returned to Turtz, and united with the captain's head, with the intention of causing great chaos.Ban Chao arrested the rebel leader, broke the captain's head country, and killed 600 people, and then decided to sullen.

At that time, the northern countries of the western region were subordinate to the Huns, and the southern roads were mostly subordinate to the big men.The north road is also big with turtles, and the Shache between South Shule and Yu Xuan has taken refuge in Turtle, and the road from Schuler to the east to the mainland of Dahan has been cut off, so Ban Chao decided to first exclude the threat of the Huns forces from the vicinity of Shule.

In the first three years of construction, more than 10,000 soldiers from the United States, Nandao Shule, Yu Xuan, Kangju, and Lumei, cut 700 people, and isolated the Turtles.

In the first five years of construction, the class exceeded the book emperor, and the big man successively carried out the punishment, from the righteousness of one thousand people, and the soldiers were 800, respectively, led by Xu Gan and Hejun to support the Pancha in the western region.

In the first year of Yuan and the first year, Ban Chaochao Shule and Yushen attacked the winged sha car of the Huns in the South Province.The car bribed Shule Wang Zhong and loyally betrayed Ban Chao.

Ban Chao changed the government to become the king of Shule, mobilized the troops to attack loyalty, Kangju sent elite soldiers to help loyal, Ban Chao bribed Kangju in-laws with the big moon, persuaded Kangju to leave the army, Kangju Wang left the army, and brought the loyalty back.

Yuan and three years, loyal from the king of Kangju borrowed some soldiers and horses, collusion with the turtles, sent someone to the class super fraud, Pan Chao through his tricks, will plan, promise him to surrender.Loyalty, light-loaded Jane has always come to see Panchao.Ban Chao held a banquet for him, and at the banquet, the class super-life killed the faithful and took the opportunity to defeat his staff.

Yuan and four years, the class super in the Yan countries 25,000 people to re-attack the Sha car.North Yuz Wang hair warm, Gu ink, the first 50,000 people rescue.

The enemy is strong and I am weak, and Ban Chao decided to use the plan of moving the tiger away from the mountain.He summoned the generals and the king of Yu Xuan, discussed the military situation, cheated their own retreat, and secretly instructed people to deliberately relax the care of the captives of the turtles, so that they could escape back to the news.After the news of the Turtles King, he took 10,000 cavalry to intercept the class super in the west, and the king led 8,000 people to stop the Yan in the east.

Ban Chao knew that they had sent troops, quickly ordered all the ministries to go together, and when the chicken was crowing, they went straight to the base camp of the car.There was no defense in the camp, the sergeant fled, and the class chased more than 5,000 people, and received countless horse and animal property.

The car was subdued, and countries such as Turtles could only withdraw their troops.Then the south came through.

Two years later, in the first year of Yongyuan, the Han Dynasty led the army to break the northern Huns in Yanran Mountain and Jinwei Mountain, and stuffed 5,000 miles.The main force of the Northern Huns was forced to migrate to the west, and the situation in the western region changed in favor of Han.

The big moon in the west wants to take advantage of the two major forces entanglement each other.In the second year of Yongyuan, the Great Moon Dynasty sent 70,000 troops, crossed the lush ridge, and tried to eliminate the Panchao forces with the northern countries of the western region.

The army was at a disadvantage, and the people panicked.Ban Chao thought that although there were many soldiers, they traveled thousands of miles, crossed the ridges, and the transfer was inconvenient, and the grain and grass could not be used for a long time, and took a policy of sticking to it.

Sure enough, the new moon vice Wang Xie attacked Ban Chao, unable to conquer, looting grain and grass, and nothing to gain, exhausted.Ban Chao estimated that their grain and grass will be exhausted, they will send someone to the Turtles for help, in advance, ordered hundreds of soldiers to lie in the east, thank you sent soldiers with gold and silver jewelry to the Turtles for help.

The soldiers of Panchao killed the messenger and sent someone to give thanks.Xie was greatly frightened, retreated, and had to send him to the Pan Chao for guilt, begging them to withdraw from the army to return home, and the big moon was greatly shocked, and the peace with Han was as good as the beginning.

The northern Huns not only failed to move west, and the big moon was frustrated and retreated southward, so the turtles led Gu and ink and Wenju to Yongyuan for three years to fall to Banchao.After Han rebuilt the Western Prefectural Protection, Ren Panchao was protected by the Western Region, and Xu Gan was a long history.

Ban Chao stationed in Turtles, Xu Yantun in Shule.In addition, the captain of the E-signal guard was set up with 500 people, the front of the car division, the back of the waiting car, waiting for the city, things echoed.

At this time, only the western region is guarded by the attack and the danger, and the fear is protected by the previous and the times, and the doubts have not yet been brought down.In the past six years, the army of eight regions such as Panchao's big haired turtles and Confucianisms and Zhenshan has a total of 70,000 people, as well as 1,400 people from Han Dynasty and merchants, and at the same time, it has sent a commander to three regions.Under military pressure and political reassurance, all three places were subdued, and the North Province was reached, and more than 50 countries in the western region were all well-known.

Since Ming Emperor Yongping's 16-year class super-manageed the western region, to the six years of calm and fixed, after 21 years of hard struggle, the western region finally got rid of the Huns again, returned to the Han Dynasty, and the class super was sealed with merit.

After the return of Ban Chaodong, the successors of the guardians were still lost to the countries of the western region, attacked by various countries, and then the Longxi Qiang people and the big man had a war, and the Long Dao was cut off.

In the first six years of the first six years, Dunhuang was too guarded Cao Zong to send a commander, and the northern Huns and the rear of the car jointly attacked and killed Soban.He is in a hurry to ask for help from Cao Zong.Queen Mother Deng summoned Ban Chao's son, Ban Yong, to the court and the court meeting countermeasures.The king advocated that it should be closed to the jade door and give up the western region.

Ban Yong grew up with his father in the western region, familiar with the situation in the western region, and decided that he was in the north, and thought that the county at the edge of the border would be trapped, and it was recommended to protect the vice lieutenants of the western region in Dunhuang, restore the three-hundredths of the Dunhuang battalions, and send the long history of the western region to five hundred people.

Two years later, Han took Ban Yong as the long history of the western region and led the army to operate the western region.The next year, the class opened the tortoise, Gu Mo and other countries, so that it was attached.Then Ban Yong sent more than 10,000 people to the front of the car, shot the northern Huns, and Tuntian willow.

In the autumn of the fourth year, Ban Yongfa Dunhuang, Zhangye, Jiuquan River West three county soldiers and the good, Shule, the front of the car division, the back of the car division, cut its king army and the Huns hold the festival messenger.

In the first year of the founding of Shun Di, Ban Yong sent the soldiers of the North Huns to attack the king of Huns, and the king of the husbands fled, and more than 20,000 of them all fell.

For two years, Ban Yong and Dunhuang were too guarded to ask for a common interest.The two men split the march and agreed on the date of their arrival at the same time.Zhang Lang wanted to ask for credit alone, and came to the throes in advance.Ban Yong was convicted at a later time, was sent to prison, was dismissed from the police, and died at home.

At the time of the emperor, the long history was in Xuan.

During the middle flat year, Liangzhou was chaotic, and the western region was once again cut off from the Central Plains.

After Ban Yong, the Eastern Han Dynasty no longer took care of the western region, but took the position of protecting the western region's long history.Long Shibi Capital is undoubtedly a stump, which also represents that after Han Han's tossing and tossing in the chaos, the importance of the western region has been weakened.

Zhang Liao is extremely admiring of this person's Panchao, and the process of overtaking the Western region in the class is a wonderful drama, courage, determination, vision, strategy, and indispensable.

People today, including Cao Cao, Liu Bei and other male masters, the energy is still in the Central Plains, not so much attention to the Chao Liangzhou, as for the western region is not to mention.

However, Zhang Liao, who came from the future, knows that the western region and even the world outside the western region are still lacking in shipbuilding and navigation technology, and sailing is not enough for a while, only the western region is the only channel to the Mediterranean and Indian civilization.

Therefore, Zhang Liao attaches great importance to the Silk Road, not only focusing on the consideration of developing the commercial economy, but more importantly, the long-term layout.

The most important thing is to control the West.

No matter how to fight, are yellow, if you can pass through the western region in this era, the yellow force extends to the two rivers and even the Mediterranean Sea, that is undoubtedly the benefit of the yellow.
