Luntai City regained its prosperity, and hundreds of thousands of civilians became active. Some herdsmen had returned to the pastures outside the city to graze. Some camel caravans traveled between Luntai Kingdom, Yanqi Kingdom, and Cheshi Kingdom.

The Protectorate of the Western Regions initially resumed its rule over the Western Regions.

After recovering the Yanqi Kingdom and defeating Temujin's army, the expeditionary force of the Han Empire finally arrived at the destination of the expedition - Luntai City!

The yellow sand wears the golden armor in a hundred battles, and if you don't break Loulan, you will never return it!

Some ragged Han troops had already appeared outside Luntai City. They were still escorting tens of thousands of prisoners, and their battle flags were damaged.

The intensity of the expedition organized by the Han Empire itself was not trivial, and the map of the main world had already expanded a lot.

Huo An and Xu Fengnian led the defenders of Luntai City and the people to welcome the expeditionary army of the Han Empire outside the city.

If there is no expeditionary force sent by the princes in the pass, then Luntai City will definitely not be able to defend, and the Western Regions Protectorate will fall.

The current situation is good for the Protectorate of the Western Regions, and the territory at the southern foot of Tianshan Mountain has been recovered.

"elder brother!"

Huo Qing led the horse, with dust and smoke on his face, he rushed to Huo An, hugged Huo An, and couldn't help crying.

"Qingqing, you must have caused a lot of trouble for others, I don't die so easily... well, you can let go."

Huo An had already seen Mu Ke, and Mu Ke led reinforcements from the Nanzhong area of ​​Yizhou to participate in the expedition. Huo An couldn't understand what he was feeling.

"snort!"

Huo Qing found that Huo An couldn't wait to meet Mu Ke, so he had to let go and pouted.

dear sister.

When Chu Tian saw Huo An looking for Mu Ke and leaving Huo Qing aside, he knew that these must be siblings. After making sure that the other party was safe, he would act like a normal person.

Chu Tian met with Xu Fengnian who supported Luntai City, and when he learned that Xu Fengnian's general Wang Tieqiang was killed in battle, he fell silent.

Chu Tian was deeply impressed by Wang Tieqiang. Wang Tieqiang was at least at the level of the five tiger generals.

It's just that Wang Tieqiang died under the bombardment of Xiangyang artillery.

It's really embarrassing.

The Xiangyang artillery of the Mongolian army killed Wang Tieqiang, and the gravel severely injured Zhang He. Many famous generals died under this powerful siege equipment.

"In the future, either try to get the manufacturing blueprint of the Xiangyang Cannon, or find a way to deal with it."

Chu Tian became more and more wary of Xiangyang Pao.

The damage of the siege equipment was so high that no general would dare to say that he stood in front of the bed crossbow and was shot by the bed crossbow.

Zhao Yun was also silent for a while when he learned that Wang Tieqiang, who had competed with him in marksmanship before, was killed.

"What are you going to do?"

"Stay in the Protectorate of the Western Regions for the time being, and go on an expedition to the Chagatai Khanate to avenge Wang Tieqiang and others. When the war in the Western Regions is completely over, I will go to Xia City."

Chu Tian did not deny Xu Fengnian's idea.

Huo An's Protectorate of the Western Regions is still very dangerous, and the troops of the Protectorate of the Western Regions have not recovered.

The distance between Chutian's territory and the Protectorate of the Western Regions was too far away, and he was powerless.

This expedition has consumed a lot of savings of the Chutian forces.

Huo An has a ruling foundation in the Protectorate of the Western Regions, and he can quickly establish a new order with the lowest cost.

Xu Fengnian's group of Xiliang military generals can join Huo An in an expedition to the Chagatai Khanate and wipe out the huge threat of the Chagatai Khanate.

According to what Chen Qingzhi told Chu Tian, ​​during the decisive battle with Temujin and the Chagatai Khanate, the Chagatai Khanate had an up-and-coming cavalry general whose ability was still higher than that of Chagatai.

In Chutian's view, the Chagatai Khanate entrenched between the Tianshan Mountains and Central Asia was very dangerous. The Chagatai Khanate is much stronger than the Wokuotai Khanate.

"You don't plan to go to Xia City, and meet your family first?"

"Of course."

Ma Chao followed Xu Fengnian silently, and suddenly said to Chu Tian: "The last general wants to borrow troops from the general to destroy the Chagatai Khanate!"

Chu Tian looked at Ma Chao, and found that Ma Chao's temperament was different from before: "Impulse not only can't accomplish anything, but it's easier to fail. If you want to avenge Wang Yanzhang, then first practice for two or three years."

Chu Tian knew that Ma Chao had not yet reached his peak state, and his abilities were not at full value.

Moreover, the expedition to the Chagatai Khanate meant intervening in the chaotic wars in Central Asia, which was quite troublesome.

It is not a question of whether it can beat the Chagatai Khanate, but an economic issue.

If everything is desperate, of course the Chagatai Khanate can be wiped off the map.

When Huo An met Mu Ke, Mu Ke looked at him coldly: "Are you planning to leave our son behind, guard Luntai City alone, die in battle, and become a hero of the Han Empire?"

"Keke, I didn't think that Taicheng must be defended, so that the Western Regions Protectorate can come back."

Facing the uncharacteristic Mu Ke, Huo An didn't know how to please him.

"Don't flirt with me for the time being, can the camp of our expeditionary army be ready?"

Jiujiu Lao Qin found that these young people brought their wives to fight when they disagreed, which made him feel a little sad as an elderly man.

When it came to business, Huo An immediately regained his spirits: "The camps of the expeditionary army have been fully prepared, enough to house 400,000 to 500,000 people. However, the food stored in the Western Regions Protectorate may not be able to support so many people... In this cold winter, the expeditionary army can Return to the pass in batches, and the next thing will be handed over to our Western Region Protectorate."

"Can the Protectorate of the Western Regions withstand the Chagatai Khanate's counterattack?"

"If the Han Empire puts pressure on Mobei and Temujin and Subotai return to Mobei, the power of the Chagatai Khanate alone will not be able to suppress our Protectorate of the Western Regions."

Huo An has confidence in the Protectorate of the Western Regions.

The Wokuotai Khanate is gone, the crisis of the Protectorate of the Western Regions has been lifted, Temujin and Subotai have been hit hard, and may choose to return to Mobei to rest.

The Protectorate of the Western Regions has time to restore its troops.

"It is naturally best for the Protectorate of the Western Regions to solve the remaining problems by itself."

"Of course, if the expeditionary force can send troops to recover the area north of Tianshan Mountain, I can pay for the cost of the teleportation array, as well as food and grass."

"It's beautiful, I won't bother you anymore."

Jiu Jiu Lao Qin shook his head, then took Jia Xu, Lu Bu and others to check his camp.

Luntai City set up a banquet for the arrival of the expeditionary force of the Han Empire, and Huo An specially entertained the princes who relieved the crisis for the Protectorate of the Western Regions.

"I need the help of an elite cavalry to regain the north of the Tianshan Mountains in this cold winter. In the spring of next year, our Western Regions Protectorate can go on an expedition to the Chagatai Khanate and contain the forces of the Chagatai Khanate. You can rest assured that you can go to Mobei to deal with Temu Really, don’t worry about Chagatai Khanate supporting Mobei.”

Huo An sat on the main seat and told his plan.

Huo An has the ambition to compete in Central Asia, but the plan was disrupted by the Fourth National War.

To the north of the Tianshan Mountains was the tribe of Subutai, and to the west of the Tianshan Mountains was the Chagatai Khanate.

Huo An intends to recover the territory north of the Tianshan Mountains first, and then attack the Chagatai Khanate whose main body is located in Central Asia.

Jiujiu old Qin said: "Originally I agreed with Chu Zimou and Mingguan that the three armies would go out of Liangzhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou respectively to sweep across Mobei and destroy the royal city of the Mongol Empire, but Mingguan seems to be in trouble. He wants to Deal with the Khitans and the Jurchens at the same time."

"Not only that, but our losses in this expedition are not small, and it will take a cold winter to recruit recruits and restore morale."

Chutian's army also suffered heavy losses in the war.

When to attack Mobei, the parties have not yet agreed, especially Mingguan, who is still having a headache for suppressing the barbarian tribes in Liaodong.

The location of Liaodong determines that it is destined to bear tremendous pressure in this national war.

"How about destroying the Chagatai Khanate or severely injuring the Chagatai Khanate while the expeditionary force has not yet returned to the Central Plains?"

Chu Tian had a bold idea.

Although not long ago he warned Ma Chao not to be impulsive, but the current situation seems to be feasible.

Temujin was injured, the Mongol Empire and the three major Khanates were panicked, and the morale of the army was shaken. They attacked the Chagatai Khanate and might have a chance to burn its capital.

"Winter is coming, let me think again."

Old Qin was more worried about the climate in the Western Regions than the cavalry of the Chagatai Khanate.

If the expeditionary force of the Han Empire went on an expedition to the Chagatai Khanate, it would mean that they had to fight the Chagatai Khanate in the ice and snow, and the goal of the expeditionary force of the Han Empire would be even crazier.

"Brother Chu, I have something to tell you." Huo An whispered to Chutian mysteriously, "Ekaterina of St. Petersburg, she greeted us in Luntai City in advance, and she will soon Use the teleportation array to come to Luntai City and discuss with us about the Golden Horde Khanate."

Ekaterina!

Chutian often forgot that there was such a person. After Huo An's reminder, Chutian's heart was shocked.

During the Second National War, Hua Mulan didn't deal with Ekaterina very much, and the relationship was bad. Xia Liang didn't like Ekaterina either.

Once Ekaterina comes to Luntai City, Luntai City is estimated to become a Shura field, a Shura field in another sense.

...

In the Kingdom of Kucha, the Mongolian army was defeated across the board. More than 300,000 cavalry retreated here to rest and their morale was low. Temujin's confidants such as Okuotai, Chagatai, Yelu Chucai, Chilaowen, and Borshu waited anxiously for Temujin's news.

"Khan, your life is not in danger."

After confirming that Temujin was not shot by Shenjiying, the group of people breathed a sigh of relief.

Temujin was the core figure of the Mongol Empire and the remaining three Khanates. If Temujin died in battle, the entire Mongol Empire and the three Khanates would fall into a struggle for power, and they were not far from extinction.

Because Temuzhen exists, everyone regards him as a great khan, so that the relationship between the Mongol Empire and the Khanate can be maintained.

Temujin came out with wounds, and glanced at the people present: "You have all shown enough loyalty to me. I will not die in battle until I conquer a powerful enemy. Our soldiers are still sharp. Give up attacking the Western Regions. Protectorate, order the army to retreat to the Chagatai Khanate, we need time to restore morale and revive the army."

Chagatai's eyes flickered, hesitating whether to recommend Timur as a general to Temujin, but then because of selfishness, he concealed the matter.
