Chapter 738

Wusun has a long history. It's too far to say clearly. After all, Wusun people don't have their own words and can't make detailed historical records. They can only sing pastoral songs from generation to generation.

Wusun with written records... Of course, it's not the Wusun people who record it themselves. It's the fact that Zhuxia knows that there is an Wusun who mentioned it in the history of Zhuxia, so we can see the word Wusun in the literature.

According to the records of the Western Han Dynasty, the Wusun people were nomadic together with the Yueshi people. The location was about between Dunhuang and Qilian in Gansu Province, and they were neighbors with the countries of the western regions and the Huns at that time.

The Yue people and the Wusun people mixed together. It was the Yue people who were driven from the eastern grassland to the west by the Huns. Although the Yue people were badly beaten by the Huns, the Yue people could still bully the Wusun people. The kunmo of Wusun was killed in the conflict with the Yue people, which led to the first subjugation of Wusun.

The son of Nan doumi, lie Jiaomi, was adopted by the Xiongnu Lord at that time and rebuilt Wusun with the help of the Xiongnu. Since then, Wusun has become a vassal of the Xiongnu.

Xiongnu and Yueshi were mortal enemies. In the ancient pre Qin period... That is, the Warring States period of Zhuxia, they always competed for grassland. For a long time, Yueshi people were actually stronger than Xiongnu people. At that time, Xiongnu had Yueshi in the west, Donghu in the East and North. In fact, Xiongnu people were oppressed miserably.

In the spring and Autumn period of Zhuxia, it was not only the Huns who invaded the south. For example, the Yueshi people had always been in trouble with the Yiqu people and the state of Qin. The state of Zhao would be beaten by the Yueshi from time to time. The main enemy of the state of Yan was the Donghu people, and the Xiongnu could only be regarded as a small role among the Hu people.

It was faunton who concentrated the power of the Xiongnu's departments, first turned over the seemingly powerful Yueshi, and then supported Donghu, which made the grassland dominant. However, it was in the late Warring States period. It was tantamount to the Xiongnu carrying the pot of invading the Central Plains countries for the previous Yueshi and Donghu.

There is no falsehood or falsehood at all. In the spring and Autumn period and the early Warring States period, the Qin people in the northwest faced the threat of grassland. In addition to the Rong and Di people who were disabled and tamed at the beginning, they were the Yiqu people. Later, they became the Yue people, waiting for the Huns to defeat and drive away the Yue people. The Huns became a new threat to the Qin people.

If we look for relevant historical materials, we won't say that there are not three separate Jin Dynasties in the spring and Autumn period. There are too many different nationalities in the north. At the beginning of the Warring States period, Zhao's biggest enemies on the grassland were Yueshi people and Donghu, not Xiongnu. It was the late Warring States period when the Huns became a threat to the north of the state of Zhao.

From beginning to end, the enemy facing the north of Yan was not Xiongnu, but Donghu. What I want to say is that the Yan people have always had a miserable life and are always forgotten by the brothers of Zhuxia. There was a blank period of not being able to communicate with the brothers of Zhuxia for a hundred years. Even the state of Yan was destroyed by Donghu. The brothers of Zhuxia don't know such a thing. They still wait for the Yan people to recover and expel Donghu, It was not until the Zhao people in Jin extended their territory to the north that they contacted Yan again that they knew that there was such a thing. (true)

At the beginning of the rise of the grassland, in fact, the Xiongnu people did not easily provoke the Zhuxia countries. Compared with the highly civilized Zhuxia countries, the Xiongnu people preferred to find trouble with the alien tribes and western people on the grassland, and had a lot of fun in the game of bullying the weak.

By the way, "Hu" is actually the name of faunton. He is very ambitious to create a unified nation, which means that he has the plan of "Hu", which is not "Xia". In short, he is to prepare for the southern invasion. Before the southern invasion, all non Zhuxia civilizations should be unified, and then go south to collide with Zhuxia after unification.

Therefore, "Hu" was not really named by Zhuxia. At that time, Zhuxia used "Rong", "Di", "Yi", "ghost" and "man" as the main names, and there were also detailed distinctions. It would never be vague or wrong to call the alien in which region.

At the beginning, "Hu" was a very high, big and important word, which represented that a huge and powerful tribe was slowly rising.

The tribe of "Hu" has indeed risen, that is, not everyone will succumb to the authority of madden. For example, most of Donghu escaped and established their own tribes, the two largest of which are Xianbei and Wuhuan. The other Yueshi did not want to be "Hu". They were defeated again and again and fled to the West. Wusun doesn't think it's good to be a "Hu". He always wants to maintain his independence.

"Wusun abandoned the Xiongnu and became close to the Han Dynasty. It's just the skill of combining vertical and horizontal."

"Lang Jiang's words are very true."

Where Xun Xian came into his eyes, he couldn't see the end of the grassland at a glance. He was one of the first marchers to the western regions. He knew clearly that this experience was not gilded, but related to the height of his future.

Before they left Yangguan and went all the way to the west, they knew that there were still allies after they went to the western regions, but they didn't know how much role Wusun could play.

The truth is that Wusun lost his thigh and has long declined. After yizhimi, the grandson of Princess Jieyou, Wusun himself fell into civil strife. Like other countries, Wusun after division was first robbed of the position of boss by several powerful figures. If they can fight for a boss, it's just that no one can be strong enough to eliminate other competitors, the division will naturally continue, and the division will no longer be a whole after a long time.

"Now Wu sunkong has left his name, and the most advanced envoy calls himself xiangdalu."

"Is that the prime minister?"

In a divided tribe (country), the official position is completely empty. There is no powerful ruler who can convince the public. As long as he has strength, he can set the desired title on his head.

After knowing that there were Han people in the East who established the state of Han, there were more than one group of Wusun who went to the Central Plains to hold their thighs. If there were no envoys who could represent the whole Wusun, they would stop talking. The official positions reported to the state of Han would be repeated.

The state of Han quickly learned from the chaos of many Wusun envoys that Wusun people have been in a mess for nearly 200 years. At the beginning of the split, the fight was very fierce. Later, it was found that no one could do anything to reduce the intensity of the war, but the split continued.

The unified Wusun could not unify the western regions, that is, it could suppress them to the greatest extent. Wusun wanted to unify the western regions after holding his thigh, but the Huns didn't allow it, and the Han Empire wouldn't want to see a force to unify the western regions. Wusun has always been a bully in the western regions, but he stayed in the dream stage from the beginning to the end.

After the split, the territory of Wusun was actually compressed step by step. During the Western Han Dynasty, he was able to step over the North Mountain (Tianshan Mountain). After the Eastern Han Dynasty, he retreated to the north mountain. During the Cao Wei period, Wusun took advantage of Cao Wei's little effort to cross the north mountain again. As a result, he was expelled from the North Mountain in the early Western Jin Dynasty.

Waiting for the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, it was the Huns' turn to decide. In fact, the Wusun people wanted to hold the Huns' thighs again. However, the Huns didn't stand firm for long. They replaced the former slave race of the Huns, and the Jie people became the overlord of the Central Plains.

In the face of the Jie nationality brought by the Huns from the western regions to the Central Plains, the Wusun people hesitated to take refuge or not. As a result, they were overtaken by Cheshi, kuci and other countries, so there was another big retreat of the Wusun people. This retreat of the Wusun people was hundreds of miles. They all quickly ran out of their original territory to accompany the Yueban people on the other side of the big moon lake (Balkash Lake).

Originally, the Jie nationality was not a whole. In fact, they were slaves captured by the Xiongnu after controlling the western regions. Later, a race will be formed, which purely absorbed the national concept of Zhuxia. Because the Jie nationality comes from the western regions, it naturally wants to be close to the western regions, and because the route of the Jie nationality to the west is blocked by Zhang Liangguo, most of them adopt a friendly attitude towards the western regions, that is, they are not very good to Wusun.

There are Wusun people in Li Kuang's team, and he is not only a representative of power.

The goal of these Wusun people to go to the state of Han is very clear, that is, to be recognized by the rulers of the state of Han. After holding their thighs, they want to complete the unification of Wusun. Perhaps they can learn from their ancestors' idea of holding their thick thighs and continuing to be a overlord in the western regions.

After the Western Jin Dynasty withdrew from the stage of the western regions, the footsteps of the Han people stopped in Shanshan. Although the Han state consulted many surviving classics and learned about the western regions from the records of Zhang Liangguo, it actually watched flowers in the fog. Naturally, it needed to lead the existence of the road party. The emergence of Wusun people was an excellent thing for the Han state.

"The Han Dynasty needs Wusun people to march into the western regions." Li Kuang glanced at the Wusun people not far away, but said mockingly: "selective support is inevitable, but the Wusun in division is the Wusun needed by the Han Dynasty."

Like many people in the western regions, most people in the western regions are white skinned, and the Han people with yellow skin are not the same in appearance. If we want to be close, we can't get close at all, and we don't even want to integrate them into the Han people's family.

Zhuxia has a very clear concept since ancient times. Under a unified country, one nation is the king. What has been persistent for a long time is the correct cause of turning Hu into Han. It is clear that multi-ethnic groups are completely trying to make themselves uncomfortable, which leads to the loss of many foreign races in the long river of history after repeated expansion, and foreign races have not been physically destroyed, In fact, he was integrated into the big family of Han people.

"It's mainly because the Wusun people look so annoying." Li Kuang said that the skin color is definitely different: "the big Han can accept Qiang, Di and miscellaneous Hu. The difference is only in the living habits and ideas, which will not be different after several generations. The Wusun people with white skin..." behind Li Kuang, there is only a series of "ha ha ha!".

The vast grassland without obvious landmarks is not so easy for the party to walk without leading the way. It is not only difficult to identify the route, but also reflected in whether it will be blocked by the Gobi or swamp, resulting in having to go around a big circle to find a new road.

The first batch of soldiers and civilians who entered the western regions did not march together. Only mobs who knew nothing... That is, no organized team would do that. However, for leaders with some basic knowledge, the first, middle and last score is still one point, which is the premise determined by the large number of teams. Otherwise, the application of water source will be the first problem.

In terms of long-distance travel, water source has always been a problem that must be faced. In some cases, there are other ways to solve the food shortage, but the water shortage really can not be solved if you want to solve it. As a result, you must first find out whether you can get water supplement on the way forward.

They walked more than 200 miles west from Yangguan, just along the route where they could get supplementary water. They didn't even meet a personal shadow on the way. Everyone knows that this is an anomaly.

From Yangguan to the west, it was not a no man's land at first. Some nomadic tribes in the western regions used to herd twenty miles away from Yangguan. Some tribes belonging to Qiang also used this area as their habitat, but now no one can see it.

More than two hundred miles sounds like a long time, but compared with the whole journey, that is, a quarter of it, the farther forward it is, the farther it is from home.

"If you are not firm, clear the walls and fields." Li Kuang could laugh that the water along the way could at least be used. He said, "if they have the ruthlessness of the Huns, they should throw their bodies away and create a plague."

Jianqing Biye is not only used by the farming people, but also played quite smoothly under the situation of great defeat and retreat. If the tribes migrate completely, they will slaughter livestock, and even the corpses of the dead people will be thrown into the water source. In this way, the Han Army deep into Caoyuan had no water supply and had to give up pursuit.

"The people of the western regions have long been ruled by extraterritorial forces and have no determination to dominate the race." Xun Xian will not lack new terms from Liu Yan. He had thought about the situation for a long time and had a good idea of what would happen: "they know very well that we are a laborer's expedition. The farther the battle site is from the mainland of the Han Dynasty, the better it will be for them."

The Han state does not have no information about the western regions at all. The instant message is that the camp of the Western Region People's coalition army is located on the beach of Puchang. So far, the western region people have no sign of moving. It is likely that they will book it as a battlefield.

There were thirty or forty thousand allied troops in the western regions, but they expanded to a small hundred thousand within a few months. There is no doubt that the tribes leaving Jianqing Biye's habitat took the initiative or were forced to meet.

"It's really good for them." Li Kuang did not ignore that his side was far away from the mainland for more than 800 Li: "Wusun people can't even fight Cheshi people. When we arrive in the western regions, we are a real lone army."

Xun Xian kept his smile unchanged. Zhuxia marched into the western regions many times. Which one was not alone at the beginning? Even if it is an isolated army, it is also an isolated army with a strong motherland behind it. On the premise of a strong motherland, people in the western regions never dare to do things. Even if the situation is wrong, people in the western regions immediately jump back. That is what the Han people can afford to lose, but people in the western regions don't have the capital to afford to lose.
