Chapter 481 Official declaration of war

"The eldest son made sense, so we agreed to take action in a month, and I had to go back and prepare immediately and not disturb me."

He Laiba quickly agreed, fearing that Cao Ang would repent.

After following Cao Ang for so long, his patience was almost wiped out from the cold winter to the beginning of spring.

After saying goodbye to Cao Ang, He Laiba hurriedly returned to his residence, waved his hand and called someone over, and asked, "When will it be agreed to take action in Yecheng?"

The man came to Dunhuang from Yecheng to deliver the letter. He said: "According to the current time, it will be one month later."

"real?"

He Laiba was overjoyed and felt that this incident was a coincidence. He hurriedly said, "We will go back soon. Whether we can succeed depends on how we prepare this time."

They couldn't wait for a moment, and they had to rush back to Xianbei in half a month as soon as possible.

He Laiba thought to himself that the Huns would definitely not be able to resist the attacks between the two sides.

After the defeat of the Huns, their land became owned by the Xianbei people, especially to the south of the Hetao region and close to the Central Plains.

After following Cao Ang for so long, He Laiba thoroughly realized how comfortable life is for the Han people, not as hard as their grassland.

In order to change the future of his tribe, He Laiba decided to give in.

"Zi'an, did you deal with He Laiba like this?" Cao Ang asked.

"That's all."

Chen Yang nodded and said, "I can be sure that He Laiba has reservations about us, maybe the second young master will agree to them too."

Cao Ang snorted coldly and said, "The Xianbei people are just villains who have gone back on their word. They have one thing on the surface and one thing on the back. It's really hateful!"

Guo Jia said: "They can go back on their word, and of course we can do it too. Cooperating with the Hu people is an intrigue, and they must not take their words seriously."

Chen Yang nodded and said, "Fengxiao is right, but before dealing with the Huns, we must continue to move westward to ensure that the Western Regions are safe and sound, and use barbarians to control barbarians so that Liangzhou, west of Chang'an, has no worries anymore."

The next day, the army continued to set off.

This place in the Western Regions is really too big, with a vast land and sparsely populated area.

After walking for a long time, they finally arrived at a country located on the edge of the desert, called Jingjue Kingdom.

Chen Yang, who came from later generations, is not unfamiliar with this Jingjue Kingdom. They have not yet begun to attack, so Jingjue Kingdom said that they can surrender.

Then, countries such as Kucha and Gumo also expressed their surrender.

After nearly half a month, they finally arrived near Dayuan, and to the north was Wusun.

Chen Yang had not planned to do anything to Dayuan, but they were very sensible and sent five thousand Dayuan horses as a condition for their surrender, begging the great man not to attack them.

Since Chen Tang, who was the strongest voice of "Those who violate the powerful Han Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away", countries in the Western Regions have never seen Han troops appear in the Western Regions.

This time, the Han army came, and they were afraid of the power of the Han Dynasty before, so they did not dare to resist. Wherever they passed, many tribes expressed their desire to surrender to the Han Dynasty.

After settled down in the Western Regions, Chen Yang ordered people to rush back to Lujiang to contact Shangmizhu, and asked him to come to the Western Regions first, open up the trade routes in the Western Regions as soon as possible, and even continue the Silk Road.

Countries in the Western Regions were very rich in supplies. What they lacked was food. Because the land was barren, desertification began. If they did not use it, farming would be difficult to maintain even if they were grazing.

Because the Western Regions are deep inland and have little precipitation, there are not many grass resources here, so you should not over-hern sheep and horses.

Although Zhang Qian's former mission to the Western Regions was for political reasons, he happened to open up the trade routes in the Western Regions.

Until the prosperous Tang Dynasty, business was unprecedentedly prosperous.

Most of the Hu merchants in the prosperous Tang Dynasty came from the Western Regions and other regions, and European merchants outside the Western Regions followed the Silk Road and walked across the Hexi Corridor to come to the Central Plains to make a fortune.

In addition to using political and military means to control it strongly, it can also control its economic lifeline.

In the later history of the Eastern Han Dynasty, only when Boss Cao pacified Liangzhou and killed Ma Teng and others, the Western Regions gradually came to the control of the Central Plains regime.

Chen Yang felt that his guess was feasible and asked someone to send a letter to Mi Zhu as soon as possible, and then the army began to return east.

A month passed quickly.

Chen Yang and the others returned to Wuwei, and the agreed time with He Laiba was almost the same.

After obtaining the five thousand war horses from Dayuan, Chen Yang formed a new team of cavalry and created a batch of brand new stirrups.

At this moment, all the new cavalry gathered outside the city.

"Zi'an, you really want to do this?" Cao Ang asked worriedly.

Chen Yang still decided to attack the Huns. Cao Ang, as the eldest son, had to stay and guard Chang'an, but this trip was still very dangerous.

"With Lao Dian and Zilong and others here, I will be fine. You will go back to Chang'an first and set out from Hetao and other places. I will first disrupt the internal and external attacks." Chen Yang said.

"With me here, you can rest assured that you will protect Manager Chen," Dian Wei said confidently.

Chen Yang said again: "We'll leave first, we should pay attention to Yecheng. The second young master is not pure. He cooperates with the Xiongnu and the Xianbei at the same time. I'm afraid there will be some accidents."

Guo Jia nodded solemnly and said, "I understand, you must be careful. If there is any accident, go south and come back immediately."

"good!"

Chen Yang nodded at the end, waved his hand, and took five thousand people directly to leave Wuwei.

All the five thousand war horses in Dayuan were taken away by Chen Yang.

"We have to go back to Chang'an as soon as possible, send troops to attack the Huns and pick up Zi'an." Guo Jia also said.

From now on, Chen Yang and his side also officially declared war on the Huns.

As for Cao Pi's Yecheng, the progress was extremely slow and there was no progress at all. They had been stationed in Yecheng and other places, and the stalemate was for a long time.

Guo Jia compared Cao Pi with Cao Ang and Chen Yang in his heart. He shook his head helplessly. He always felt that the country that the Cao family had built would eventually be destroyed in Cao Pi's hands.

As soon as they returned to Chang'an, soldiers came to report that someone outside asked to see Cao Ang.

"Wenhe, Wenruo, why are you?"

When Cao Ang went out, he saw that the people coming were Xun Yu and Jia Xu.

Xun Yu and his friends only brought dozens of people and fled from Yecheng to Chang'an. I don't know how difficult it was along the way.

After entering Chang'an and temporarily resettled, Jia Xu said worriedly: "Young Master, I have a feeling that we may not be able to defend the four northern states."

"What happened in Yecheng?"

Cao Ang asked anxiously.

"The second young master not only wants to cooperate with the Xianbei people, but I accidentally learned that he also cooperates with the Huns' Subu National Master. His doing so is completely arousing the fire."

Xun Yu was so angry that his face flushed, and said, "No matter what happens now, the second young master only listens to Yang Xiu's words and is disdainful of us. As a last resort, we can only come to Chang'an."

After hearing this, Cao Ang and the others fell into deep thought.
