Bai Su scratched his hair and sighed helplessly.

She said so, why did she refuse.

Although with the great national power of Great Xia, they don't need the help of Yuezhi Kingdom at all, they just need to shout 666 on the sidelines, but this time Queen Yuezhi is on the front line, at least she has the ability to stabilize the rear.

Otherwise, if there is a head-on confrontation between the Central Plains and the Western Regions Allied Forces, it is at a critical time.

Suddenly out of fear, the rear directly chose to surrender to the Allied Forces of the Western Regions, and backstabbed the rear of the Central Plains army, which would be a bit bad.

after all……

Don't be afraid of opponents like gods, but teammates like pigs.

In history, when the Tang Dynasty attacked the Western Regions, it was defeated by the backstab of the friendly army and suffered a lot of casualties.

After pondering for a long time, Bai Su said, "I plan to choose a day to march westward to attack the bandits in Loulan and Wusun. If Her Majesty the Queen is not too bumpy, I will arrange someone to protect Your Highness to accompany the army."

A look of joy appeared on Queen Yuezhi's face, and her red lips parted slightly: "Thank you, my lord."

She looked at Bai Su in front of her, and couldn't help but jump up in her chest.

The reason why she wanted to go to the front with Bai Su, besides the two reasons just mentioned, she had another purpose.

That is to observe the strength of Daxia's army, as well as Bai Su's private speech and behavior, so as to determine the future direction of Yuezhi Kingdom.

If the strength of Daxia's army is very average, and it will lose both sides in the battle with the coalition forces in the Western Regions, then after this battle, Daxia will definitely temporarily shrink its troops and retreat to the Central Plains.

Then the Yuezhi Kingdom needs to re-evaluate whether it recognizes the suzerain country or not.

However, Daxia's army was strong, and they defeated Loulan with a crushing force. The coalition forces with Wusun showed a strength far surpassing that of the Yuezhi Kingdom.

Then she has only one choice, to completely let go of all thoughts, and obediently become a vassal state.

And Bai Su in front of him is the bridge between Daxia, the suzerain country, and the Yuezhi country. No matter what price he pays, he must try his best to win him over.

Only by establishing a long-term close relationship with Daxia can the prosperity and stability of the Yuezhi Kingdom be guaranteed.

after all……

Those who are small but not humble, those who are weak but not afraid of the strong, those who are disrespectful and insult their neighbors, those who are greedy and clumsy in making friends will die.

Facing a big country that far surpasses itself, a small country can only survive in the cracks if it tucks its tail and finds ways to please the other party. This is the tragedy of being a small country.

of course……

All this will depend on the strength of the Central Plains.

Queen Yuezhi looked at Bai Su beside her, and her eyes flickered for a moment, she didn't know what she was thinking.

"grown ups……"

Meng Yi was standing on the hillside with a long sword in his hands, looking at the Central Plains army coming from afar, when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, he turned his head and found Bai Su and Queen Yueshi walking towards him .

Bai Su glanced at her and asked, "How's the situation?"

Meng Yi smiled and said: "Follow-up soldiers and horses have arrived one after another, almost more than [-], and the food from the Central Plains has also been transported, and they are going to various places for disaster relief. I believe that the situation in the Yuezhi will be stable soon. In a few days, we can send troops to fight back."

While she was speaking, she glanced at Queen Yueshi next to her with a strange look, and thought to herself.

As expected of Mr. Bai, he really is a strange person. I just suggested that Mr. Bai and Queen Yueshi strengthen the relationship, and it is better to marry the princess of Yuezhi Kingdom, so as to contribute to Xianyang's control of Yuezhi Kingdom.

But she never expected that the princess Bai Su did not succeed in the strategy, but took down the Queen Yueshi who is the mother-in-law, which is really a good trick.

Bai Su glanced at Meng Yi: "Looking at your eyes, I can tell that you are thinking wildly again. The reason why I took Her Royal Highness to the front line is just for diplomatic affairs. Don't think too much about it."

Meng Yi blinked his black and white eyes, and said in admiration: "My lord, you don't need to talk too much, it's just diplomatic relations, so you can give people a handle and establish a deep-rooted relationship. I understand, I understand..."

"You know a hammer."

Bai Su looked at her appearance of a female rascal, and then looked at Queen Yuezhi beside her, who turned her head and pretended not to understand the meaning, and she couldn't help but be a little bit dumbfounded.

......

......

Meanwhile, on the other side.

The scorching sun shone in from the skylight at the top of the big tent, and there were still faint flames in the surrounding pot furnaces.

It was warm in the whole big tent, and in the main seat of the big tent, there were two women sitting side by side, pushing glasses and changing glasses, with high spirits.

A woman dressed in a Hu suit, her jet-black hair tied up in a neat ponytail, one foot on the stool, and a golden machete pinned to her waist, looked quite sturdy.

One is dressed in gorgeous silk and satin, with a beaded headband on her head, black silk cascading down like a waterfall, and several colorful lines painted on her face, both in clothes and manners, she is quite majestic.

The two are the general of Wusun Kingdom and the high priest of Loulan Kingdom.

They led a coalition army of nearly 20 from the countries of the Western Regions, and conquered cities and lands all the way. In just half a month, they even conquered more than ten cities.

On the table at the side, there are all kinds of Yuezhi-style jewelry and jade, as well as a large amount of silk and satin.

Priest Loulan looked at the female general beside him and asked, "What are you going to do next?"

General Wusun stuffed the roasted mutton into his mouth, licked his fingertips and said with a smile, "Naturally, we should first ask the Yuezhi Kingdom for a lot of money and supplies, so as to boost the morale of our army."

"After all, we have been attacking continuously for half a month, and we are faintly tired. Now we need to rest for a while."

"Send envoys to the Yuezhi royal court at this time, otherwise we can buy some time for rectification, and give the Yuezhi queen an unrealistic illusion, making her think that she has caught a life-saving straw and keeps cutting meat to feed us."

"Like a drowning person, it sinks into the water little by little until it is completely swallowed up and divided by us."

High Priest Loulan nodded slightly.

Relying on its advantage of being located in the Western Regions and being closer to the Central Plains, the former Yuezhi Kingdom recruited local middlemen and kept trying to squeeze them out.

Once the silk and wine from the Central Plains enter the Western Regions through the Yuezhi Kingdom, the price will have to soar at least seven or eight times, more than ten times, and they are so angry that their teeth itch.

Now that they have the opportunity to take revenge, Yuezhi Kingdom will naturally have to pay double the price for what they did back then.

"General, it's not good."

A fat messenger came in and said anxiously.

"What's the matter, didn't you send you to the Yuezhi Royal Court to ask for money, silk, things?"

General Wusun looked at the empty-handed and disheveled emissary, and asked in doubt.

The high priest of Loulan was taken aback, and asked, "Could it be that she rejected our request for peace?"

The messenger smiled wryly: "It's not just a refusal, she just asked the guards to throw me out."

"boom!"

General Wusun slapped the table heavily: "Who gave her the courage, she doesn't want to live!"

"It's Daxia from the Central Plains."

"Summer?"

Hearing this strange name, General Wusun frowned.

The high priest of Loulan was well-informed and said, "It's the country of silk located to the east of the Yuezhi country, and those merchants come from Daxia."

The envoy added: "She said that from now on, the Yuezhi Kingdom respected Daxia as the suzerain country, and if they dared to oppose the Yueshi, they would be an enemy of Daxia. At the same time, she asked the little one to bring back a sentence."

General Wusun was taken aback for a moment: "What are you talking about?"

The envoy hesitated for a long time, and then said in a low voice: "Let us go back and hurry up, enjoy ourselves, eat and drink. The two kingdoms will be destroyed as soon as they are said to be destroyed. Now the soldiers and horses of Daxia are coming one after another, and there are almost [-] to [-] people. .”

"Haha, what a big tone, I don't care what silk country you are, the Great Xia in the East, this Western Region is our territory, in front of me, Wusun, I will be coiled by a dragon, and I will be crouched by a tiger, since he is big Xia wants to make a name for the Yuezhi Kingdom, so I might as well take care of him too."

General Wusun sneered and said, "After we destroy the Yuezhi Kingdom and control the entire Western Regions, the next target will be the Great Xia. At that time, they will regret what they did today."

The slender black eyebrows of Loulan High Priest frowned. Although he disagreed with General Wusun's thoughts, he didn't say much.

After all, they had 20 soldiers and horses, and Daxia's army was only [-] to [-], which was less than half of theirs. What's more, one of them was on an expedition to fight away, and the logistics supply line was so long, the pressure was huge.

Once there is the slightest disadvantage, the whole army will basically be wiped out.

One is to have the advantage of the home field, and there is a steady stream of supplies from the rear at any time to replenish food, supplies, soldiers and horses.

Almost all the advantages of the three parties of heaven, earth and people are with them.

Flying dragon riding face, how could he lose.

Chapter 180 Five, He Really Is a Scoundrel

After resting for a few days, the soldiers and horses in the Central Plains went all the way west.

With a surprised expression, Bai Su looked at Queen Yueshi beside her.

At this time, she was completely different from her soft and charming appearance in the past.

She tied a head of blue silk into a braid and coiled it behind her head. On her plump and delicate body, she wore a heroic skirt armor. The silver-white armor covered her chest and waist, and her lower body was a smart blue skirt.

Holding a gold-plated scepter in her hand, Queen Yuezhi stood quietly on top of the chariot, looking from afar, she looked like a Valkyrie on the battlefield.

For a moment, Bai Su couldn't help but take a second look, obviously amazed by her outfit.

It's not that she is so imposing and majestic when she wears a skirt armor, but a delicate, charming and beautiful young woman suddenly put on a heroic skirt armor. This strong contrast makes people feel that there is something special about it.

Seeing Bai Su staring straight at her, Queen Yueshi couldn't help being stunned: "My lord, why do you keep staring at me, but what is wrong with this concubine?"

Bai Su rode a maroon horse, approached it, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just sigh in my heart, as expected of Her Royal Highness, she is a stunning beauty, after wearing this armor, she looks even more beautiful and heroic." Sassy, ​​it really makes people unable to take their eyes off."

Queen Yuezhi's beautiful face was flushed with blush and she bit her red lips lightly: "Including adults?"

After getting along with him for a while during the march, she also had some understanding of Bai Su's character.

Knowing that Bai Su only said some indecent words, but he behaved in a refined and easy-going manner, with an upright personality, and he did not take advantage of his status as an envoy of a great power to bully others.

This made her originally tense nerves gradually relieved, as if she had adapted to this way of getting along.

When Bai Su saw that Queen Yueshi actually teased him, a smile appeared on his face.

He said solemnly: "That's natural, I don't even hide it from Her Majesty the Queen, I am very envious of your armor now."

Faced with Bai Su's scorching gaze, Queen Yuezhi couldn't help but miss a beat in her heart, her heart jumped up "ploppppppppp" as if uncontrollably.

She was secretly vigilant, telling herself silently in her heart that she should not be fooled by the sweet words of the man in front of her, and that while she had to pretend to be close to him, she had to keep her heart at all times.

Before knowing whether Daxia can defeat the Western Regions Allied Forces, betting on him too early will only make their royal family and the entire Yuezhi Kingdom lose together.

Everything can only be based on interests.

But despite this rationality, women are emotional creatures after all.

Day by day, he took the initiative to pretend to be close, facing such a gentle and handsome young man like Bai Su, he spoke words that stirred his heart from time to time.

As I acted, I couldn't help but feel a throbbing in my heart.

However, this was all suppressed by her.

After all, as the head of a country, she has more important responsibilities and cannot be swayed by momentary emotions.

What's more, she has already vaguely seen that her daughter has feelings for the Daxia official in front of her. As a mother, if she does not occupy the magpie's nest, what face will she have to face her daughter in the future.

Queen Yuezhi came back to her senses after a long time, and she rolled her eyes coquettishly at Bai Su: "My lord, you are making fun of my concubine again."

Bai Su smiled heartily: "Just kidding? Why did I say that? I, Bai Su, have always been honest. Everyone in Xianyang is known as an honest person. I never lie during the day."

Queen Yuezhi looked stunned: "Why is it daytime?"

Bai Su said with a smile: "Well, as a man, lying at night is inevitable, for example... I only go to bed, but never get in, I just rub, but never go in."

Queen Yueshi immediately understood Bai Su's meaning, and couldn't help but spit lightly, a blush appeared on her beautiful face.

Bah, what an honest man, he is clearly a rascal with a street spirit.

I don't know why the first emperor trusted him so much, not only let him have a high position in Xianyang, but even Meng Yi, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, respected him so much.

"grown ups……"

Just as Queen Yueshi was contemplating, Meng Yi's voice suddenly came from afar.

She was wearing a black skirt with a sword pinned to her waist, and she was approaching on horseback.

A trace of doubt appeared on Bai Su's face: "What's the matter, Meng Yi?"

Meng Yi took off the helmet on her head and put it on her waist, showing a heroic pretty face. Her slender eyebrows were slightly frowned, and she said, "Our army was assassinated just now."

Bai Su frowned: "Assassination, we haven't reached the border yet, where did the assassination come from?"

Meng Yi said with a serious expression: "The city just passed behind us."

Queen Yuezhi seemed to understand what she meant, and said in surprise, "You mean the Yuezhi people?"
