Chapter 168 The Great Voyage ([-])

Three years later

Jianzhao three years
Wu Sun Guo

After more than ten years of civil war with Huhanxie Shanyu, Zhizhi Shanyu felt powerless, so he decided to migrate to the Central Asian grasslands to avoid the edge of the Han army.

Zhizhi Shanyu formed an alliance with Kangju State, occupied the western territory of Wusun State, and built a Greek-style castle in the occupied area.

"I didn't expect to see Romanesque castles in the Seven Rivers area."

Among the crowd, a beautiful girl looked at the castle down the mountain and couldn't help sighing.

This type of castle originally originated in Greece, and was later brought to many countries in the Western Regions by Alexander's Eastern Expedition. After that, Rome was also influenced by Greek culture and imitated a large number of Greek-style castles.

Therefore, this Romanesque castle should be derived from the style brought by Alexander's Eastern Expedition.

"This should be Wusun Kingdom, it seems that we are about to return to the big man." A middle-aged man with white hair in the crowd burst into tears.

When he was young, he went to Rome with Wang Hongxian and Wang Qiao. After more than 20 years of ups and downs, he will finally return to his hometown, but he is already getting old.

"home……"

The beautiful girl murmured to herself that she had never been to a big man, but her body was full of Han blood.

Her name is Wang Zhaojun, and she is the daughter of Wang Hongxian and Cleopatra Tia Philopator (Cleopatra).

When Wang Hongxian and Wang Qiao returned to Rome, Pompey and Caesar were in a civil war, and Rome was in chaos.

Many Han envoys accidentally suffered from fish ponds in the Roman civil war and died tragically.

Wang Hongxian traveled southward, entered Egypt to escape the war, and had a secret relationship with Cleopatra Tia Philopator, the wife and sister of the Egyptian pharaoh, and gave birth to Wang Zhaojun.

Pharaoh was furious and sent troops to chase and kill Wang Hongxian.

Wang Hongxian asked a Han envoy to bring his daughter back to Rome, but he himself was captured by the Pharaoh's army while fleeing.

Pharaoh mummified him alive and stored him in the pyramid, and he was in the same tomb as his biological father Wang Changye.

As Cleopatra's daughter, Wang Zhaojun was born beautiful and inherited her mother's charm.

Wang Zhaojun was brought up by Wang Qiao since he was a child. When he was 13 years old, he was taken away by his aunt Wang Qiao, and he and some remaining Han envoys who were still alive were going back to Dahan.

But her aunt Wang Qiao died of illness on the way to rest, so Wang Zhaojun became the new leader of the messenger team.

Caesar's adopted son Octavian sponsored Wang Zhaojun a lot of money to ensure that Wang Zhaojun's emissary team would not lack money on the way back.

While Wang Zhaojun and many Han envoys were still observing the castle at the foot of the mountain, a huge army appeared on the horizon in the distance.

"It's our big man's army!"

An old Han envoy pointed in the direction of the army, very excited.

……

"kill!"

"Destroy the Huns! Those who don't surrender will die!"

Chen Tang, the deputy captain of the Western Regions, led tens of thousands of allied forces to attack Zhizhi Shanyu's castle.

This coalition army is composed of the Han army and the servant armies of various countries in the Western Regions.

After hearing that Zhizhi Shanyu colluded with Kangju to invade the land of Wusun Kingdom, he couldn't wait to report to the imperial court and wait for the imperial court to make a decision. The country sends troops to fight together.

The Allied Forces of 56 Nations crossed Congling and attacked Zhizhi Shanyu!
The coalition forces besieged the castle and were in no rush to attack it.

Chen Tang sent envoys to Kangju State with thousands of cavalry, rebuked Kangju State for colluding with the Xiongnu, and demanded that Kangju State cut off the logistics supply to Zhizhi Shanyu.

Kang Juguo was really afraid of big men, so he severed contact with Zhizhi Shanyu.

In this way, without the support of Kang Juguo, Zhizhi Shanyu held on to the castle for several days and nights, and finally could not hold on anymore.

Chen Tang believed that the time had come, so he ordered a general attack on the castle.

When the coalition forces launched a general attack on the castle, a messenger came outside the camp of Chen Tang's commander and shouted: "General, our Chinese envoy has returned from Rome!"

???

Chen Tang was confused, didn't he just send an envoy to Kangju country with the army a few days ago?Why did the messenger come again?
Rome (Great Qin)?

"Let them wait outside, I'll go over later." Chen Tang ordered the messenger soldier outside.

"No!" The messenger replied.

After a while, Chen Tang came outside the account, and what he saw was a beautiful girl in a woolen sweater, a mink cap on her head, a pair of high boots on her feet, and a long silver face hanging from her waist.

Beside this beautiful girl stood seven white-haired men in exotic clothes.

"We are Han people, but our Han family clothes have been worn for too long and have been damaged, so we wear Roman clothes." An old man with white hair explained to Chen Tang.

"We were the envoys who accompanied Wang Hongxian and Wang Qiao to the Western Regions. Hundreds of other envoys died on the way due to various reasons. Only we managed to come back alive." Another white-haired man looked at and explained, His experience is also legendary. He was captured by Pompey in Rome, and later taught some Roman slaves Chinese culture in a prison in Rome. After Caesar turned the defeat into victory, he was released and followed Wang Qiao back to his hometown of Dahan.

……

When Chen Tang looked at Wang Zhaojun curiously, Wang Zhaojun also looked at Chen Tang curiously.

It was the first time she came to her hometown, so she was very interested.

At this moment, the soldiers of the Han army set fire to the wooden building outside the castle and successfully entered the castle.

crackle crackle crackle!

The castle was ablaze and filled with smoke.

"kill!"

The coalition forces entered the castle.

Zhizhi Shanyu rushed out of the city with hundreds of Xiongnu elite cavalry to break out of the encirclement.

clang--

"what!"

"All the Huns must be killed!"

While the killing was going on, Zhizhi Shanyu was stabbed in the back by a Han army commander while fleeing, and his body was dragged back to the Han army camp, and the rest of the Huns surrendered one after another.

Click!

The chief of the Han army cut off the head of Shanyu Zhizhi, the Xiongnu, and dedicated the head of Shanyu to Chen Tang.

"Hang the head of Zhizhi Shanyu on the long spear, and take Shanyu's head to inspect the countries in the Western Regions."

"Ming, whoever offends my strong man will be punished no matter how far away he is!"

Chen Tang is very high-spirited, and he wants to use this method to show the countries of the Western Regions that anyone who dares to invade my strong man will be punished no matter how far you hide!

And all of this is seen in Wang Zhaojun's eyes, and she also felt the strength of her hometown for the first time.

meow~
The Persian cat in Wang Zhaojun's arms also barked.

This was a gift given to her by King Anxi when she was passing through the Anxi Kingdom.

And this Anxi King was a little prince whom Wang Changye had befriended when he passed by Anxi, and now he is an old white-haired king.

It was also because of his grandfather Wang Changye's good reputation in the Anxi Kingdom that Wang Zhaojun was able to pass smoothly through the territory of the Anxi Kingdom and all the way to the Western Regions.

Wang Zhaojun brought back not only the Persian cat, but also a guess.

This guess is that the big man can also reach Rome by sea.

When Wang Hongxian was staying in Egypt, he found that there were merchant ships from Anxi coming to Egypt to do business. Combined with the fact that the poisoned merchant ships came to Anxi when he was staying in Anxi, combined with the southwestern part of the Han Dynasty, it seems that the poisonous body can be connected to the southwestern part of the Han Dynasty. It is the sea.

Wang Hongxian guessed that it is possible to reach Rome from Dahan by sea.

It's just that this is a guess after all, because he doesn't know whether the big man Jiaozhi goes all the way to the south or whether it is the sea. What if the sea to the south of Cochin is just a big lake, and the opposite is a land?

After all, no one has been there, so no one knows.
