NOVEL WEB Three Kingdoms: I, Liu Adou, don’t need anyone to support me
Chapter 350
King Loulan was arrested, Deng Ai didn't say a word, and directly cut off his head!
King Loulan died in battle, and the other soldiers, as if they had lost their faith, no longer had any fighting spirit. So, they surrendered one after another.
At this point, the Loulan Kingdom was destroyed.
After Deng Ai took the capital of Loulan Kingdom, he sent envoys to the Western Regions countries again, first, to make them understand that the Han Dynasty was very good at fighting this kind of thing. The second is to let them hurry up and submit to it, so that they can get a better way back. Otherwise, as soon as the iron cavalry of the Han arrives, then the king of Loulan will be your fate.
He believed that after this battle, the countries of the Western Regions would not dare to confront the Han Dynasty.
As for submission, there should be a few small countries that will submit to obedience, and those big countries may have to fight a few very cruel wars before they will understand that the Han Dynasty no longer relies on cold weapons to win, but uses all kinds of hot weapons to break through their walls with very few troops.
Therefore, he hopes that everyone can understand this truth...
......
On the other side, Ma Chao set off from Luoyang in March, passed through Chang'an, arrived in Chengdu, and then went south to Kunming, from Kunming all the way to the west, and continued to walk. This road is extremely difficult to walk. There are not only 100,000 mountains here, but also all kinds of poisonous smoke miasma, in addition, fierce beasts and poisonous insects are also a headache for Ma Chao.
You know, he came out from Luoyang with 100,000 soldiers.
But they were still within the borders of the Han Dynasty at this time, but their losses amounted to more than 1,300 people.
There are countless people who will always have some diseases and so on inexplicably.
And this is just a march, and there is no struggle!
Although there are accompanying Lang Zhong in the army, most of these Lang Zhong are only at the level of some half-assers. There are really clever people, but he really can't take care of everyone.
Moreover, on a long march, the soldiers were exhausted. And it's not the normal official roads, but those deserted mountain roads that are occasionally walked by people and so on. Therefore, the morale of Ma Chao's department is very low!
On this day, it was raining and I couldn't walk.
So you can only rest in place.
And a few soldiers couldn't help but discuss!
"We've obviously unified the Han Dynasty, why do we have to come to this kind of ghost place so hard? You see, looking at the past, it's all mountains, and it's been three months since I walked, and I still haven't seen the end yet. I don't know how long it will take to get out of these places? Our Majesty, though wise, is only at this point, isn't it... Isn't it...
..."
"Watch the words! Our Majesty is good enough. If it were placed with other princes, they would give us land? Dream on! You all know how much this land is worth! And we have to pay a lot every month. It's a pity that there is no chance of meritorious service. When I first fought Cao Wei, I had a fellow countryman who participated in a skirmish. He killed three people, but he also had a tattoo on him. Do you know how much money he got in the end? Three hundred straight hundred coins, and at the same time became a centurion! Now he is participating in the study, and in the future, he will definitely be an officer at the level of a captain! It's a pity that we haven't had the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and if we are here, it is also a good thing to be able to make meritorious contributions. It's better than dying on the battlefield! "
"I know this, but we just walk aimlessly, and I don't know when it will be a head. Who knows if they can make meritorious contributions? And this place, why do you love rain so much, every time it rains, this road is even more difficult to walk. The point is that after walking for a few months, the only village I came across turned out to be a dilapidated village. Ay...... What can I do about this..."(Read the violent novel, go to the Feilu Novel Network!) ）
"Alright, stop talking nonsense. We are soldiers, if we were just ordinary people, would we be treated so well? Don't complain. You must know that the places we walk through will eventually become the land of our Han Dynasty. Others, do you have a chance? Perhaps, now that we have stepped into the territory of other countries, we will talk to them about it and let them take care of their own environment. "
"Got it... Got it..."
They were complaining here, but they happened to be heard by Ma Chao, who was patrolling the camp.
He uncovered the tent and looked as usual. After glancing at everyone, he didn't go out, but took off his robe, and then signaled everyone not to be nervous.
But Ma Chao is here, how can they not be nervous?
Ma Chao said: "When I was out on patrol just now, I heard many people complaining, complaining about why they came to such a ghost place, right? "
The soldier who had just complained suddenly turned red, and he hurriedly said: "~ Big... General, I'm just complaining, and I don't mean anything else! "
Ma Chao motioned for him to sit down and said, "I know what you think, it's nothing more than such a boring rush, and this road is particularly sinful, isn't it?" Actually, like you, I don't feel the need to come to this kind of place. Because it's not a place for humans at all, right? "
Everyone looked at each other, and then naturally nodded their heads.
Ma Chao said: "Then do you know that when the Three Kingdoms were established, the Emperor Taishang was the poorest one, and the soldier was also the least one. At the same time, talent is also the most scarce one, so why did the Emperor Taishang finally win, do you know what the truth is? "
Everyone was at a loss!
Ma Chao continued: "Actually, it's very simple, that is, Your Majesty knows that fertile land never falls from the sky, but is mined by itself. Just like the mountain outside the door, when you are not in the Han Dynasty, do you know that this mountain can also grow food? It is the Emperor and His Majesty who continue to expand and develop, and they will gradually become stronger. Also, do you think we're walking aimlessly? It would be a big mistake to do so, we are not taking the road, but exploring these places for future generations. His Majesty said that according to the current fertility policy of the Han Dynasty, in ten years, the population of the Han Dynasty will reach 50 million. Twenty years from now, it will reach 70 million. Thirty years from now, it will be more than 100 million. At that time, do you think the land of the Han Dynasty is enough for them? "
"It's not enough! And what's wrong with us, as pioneers, fighting for a better life for our own descendants, and paying a little sweat? And, among them, there is an even greater plan. And guess what? "
Everyone shook their heads, indicating that they couldn't guess!
Ma Chao smiled and said, "That's...".
