Chapter 785: Puppet Dawan

"Five levels of difficulty? Should I choose the **** level? Every sage, please guide me."

Alexander gathered the philosophers of ancient Greece, including many philosophers including Plato and Aristotle.

Just as each hero has its own characteristics, these sages also have special abilities. Some sages also have the ability of "prophet", similar to Zhang Bin's "premonition".

Aristotle and others fell into a brief silence.

Hell mode, maybe it will really send Alexander to hell.

Aristotle said: "Asia Minor is a fertile ground for building an empire. The king does not need to try his own risk. Occupying Asia Minor, the king will challenge **** with a stronger posture in the future."

"What my teacher said is reasonable. This time it is extremely difficult to try first."

Alexander agreed with Aristotle.

He is still young and has decades of time to conquer the world. He does not need to turn the tide and choose the most difficult **** mode.

The lords of Rome, Germany, the United States, and Arabia also made their own choices.

Hell mode, it seems that not many lords dare to try, unless desperate.

Not only ancient China, but other civilizations also had extremely difficult battles.

For example, in the Battle of Constantinople in AD 1453, the last emperor of the Byzantine Empire, Constantine XI, defended Constantinople, the last city of Byzantium with thousands of people, and faced the Ottoman Empire, which had more than ten times its strength. The offensive itself is already a hell-level difficulty.

At this time, if assigned to the Battle of Constantinople by the system, the attributes of the Ottoman Empire under Hell difficulty will be increased by 50%. At that time, the commander of the Ottoman Empire was still the great Maimat II, who also had bronze cannons. , Siege Hammer and Catapult are simply nightmare.

Alexander took 20,000 people to defend Constantinople, and was surrounded by the Ottoman regiment of more than 100,000 led by Maimat II, and he would lose out in all likelihood.

Regardless of whether the Eastern Continent or the Western Continent, the **** model is not a joke, it is a real hell.

The previous "Battle of Jingkang" that all the princes of the Han Empire participated together seemed to be moderate compared with this **** mode of fighting alone.

So that, from Chutian in the East to Alexander in the West, when the power is strong, they only dare to choose the fourth difficulty, not the fifth difficulty.

Nine deaths in the fifth difficulty, even if you survive, it does not mean you will win.

At least it is necessary to make sure that the fourth difficulty is not particularly dangerous, and only then will the lord dare to actively choose the fifth difficulty.

The expeditionary forces sent by Central Asia, Dawan, and the Western Regions Protected Government occupied a large city and gained a firm foothold.

A banquet was hosted by a Dawan noble to entertain Huo An.

The Western Regions Protectorate under Huo An’s rule once occupied Dawan a few years ago. Huo An supported many Dawan nobles. When the Western Regions Protectorate army again invaded Dawan, some Dawan nobles did their best. Benefit, choose to stand on the side of the Western Regions Protectorate.

At present, Dawan is controlled by three civilizations (the Seljuk Empire, the Guishuang Empire, and the Han Empire), which divides the Fergana Basin where Dawan is located.

No matter which party wants to monopolize this basin rich in grain, good horses, and wine, at the same time, the Fergana Basin is also an important strategic location.

If you occupy the teleportation array of the Dawan Kingdom, then the Western Regions Protectorate will not have to cross the Congling Mountains several kilometers above sea level again, and travel thousands of miles from the Luntai to Central Asia and South Asia.

To be precise, Huo An wanted to turn Dawan into a colony and military base of the Han Empire as one of the springboards for attacking Central and South Asia.

There is no problem at all in the Fergana Basin to feed millions of people.

"Because of the previous two or three years, Tiemuzhen, Wokuotai, and Chagatai attacked Tianshan, Luntai, and Qiuci in a big way, and had to retreat from Dawan and shrink their sphere of influence. Restoration of stability, Wo Kuotai aggressively attacked the Kingdom of Dawan, and it is time to regain the rule of the Western Regions’ prefecture over Dawan. I am the Liang King of the Han Empire and the Protector of the Western Regions. In addition to stabilizing the Western Regions, we ensure that the Western Regions remain in the Han Dynasty. The territory of the empire needs to be accomplished. The Han Empire must have at least a teleportation formation in Dawan to reduce unnecessary troubles in the future. And Mei Cai, you help me accomplish this, and your benefits in the future will be It's hard to imagine."

Huo An opposed the guest and sat in the dominant position, but the aristocrat of Dawan, Mei Cai, was in the lower position.

Mei Cai was an aristocrat of Dawan country who was close to Han.

"At the beginning, I was able to become one of the powerful nobles in Dawan from the leader of a small tribe. It was all thanks to your help. But since your soldiers left Dawan, there has been a noble rebellion in Dawan. Killed the king you supported and elected a new king. Later, King Qiu, the king of the Guishuang Empire, led a large army to attack Dawan and killed the new king. Supported a new king. Later, Wo Kuotai led the Mongolian and Turkic cavalry to invade the Kingdom of Dawan, once captured the King City of Dawan, killed the king established by the Yue people, and established a new king again."

"..."

Huo An couldn't help frowning when he heard the details of the changes in Dawan during his absence from the nobleman of Dawan, Mei Cai.

Dawan is a puppet state. From the first year to the eleventh year of the lord, there were five kings in Dawan. In addition to the old king, four of them were Dawan nobles, Western Regions Protector House, and Guishuang Empire. , A puppet controlled by Wo Kuotai.

There is a saying that Central Asia is the bus, and it is often outsiders who rule here.

Huo An also showed no mercy to the rule here. The size of the country of Dawan meant that they could only depend on the surrounding powerful empire. Which empire is more powerful, then which empire can gain control of Dawan.

This is the sadness of a small country.

But even so, the aristocracy of Dawan still flattered the surrounding powerful empires like moths to the fire, and wanted to use the power of the empire to ascend the throne of Dawan.

Mei Cai learned that Huo An's expeditionary army of the Han Empire had arrived and saw the hope of becoming a king.

Huo An also knows that only benefits are eternal.

As long as they have common interests, they are brothers.

"These two are?"

Mei Cai saw that Huo An was surrounded by two important people, their status in the Western Regions Protector was second only to Huo An and Huo Qing brothers and sisters.

"Xu Fengnian, and King Wusun."

"King Wusun?"

Mei Cai knew that before being conquered by the Protector of the Western Regions, Wusun Kingdom was regarded as a powerful country among the 36 countries in the Western Regions, but it still surrendered to the Protector of the Western Regions.

King Wusun made great contributions in the process of defeating Tiemuzhen and Chagatai by the expeditionary forces of the Han Empire. Therefore, he has a high status in the Western Regions and he was also the vassal king of the Han Empire.

Battle exploits are very important in troubled times, and they have a place when they are made.

"Several adults, Turks and Mongolians, they began to withdraw their troops and withdrew from Dawan!"

Just as Huo An was talking with several Dawan nobles who had taken refuge in the Protectorate of the Western Regions, Wo Kuotai announced his withdrawal and left the Fergana Basin.

"What is that guy in Wo Kuotai thinking? He and the Guishuang Empire are fighting for control of Dawan. It should last for a year or two, with nearly 100,000 casualties, so easily abandoning Dawan?"

Huo An's face was low and he was thinking about his thoughts.

Wo Kuotai led the Turkic and Mongolian cavalry to leave, and the country of Dawan went from a three-pointed world to a battle between the two powers.

Now in Dawan, only the expeditionary army of the Western Regions Protectorate and the army of the Guishuang Empire are left.

Huo An’s general, Ban Chao, said: "Perhaps, Wo Kuotai wants to surrender Dawan and let us fight with the Guishuang Empire. We will lose both. He can clean up the mess."

"Perhaps it is true. Wo Kuotai is not a brash man. He can inherit Genghis Khan's sweat and naturally has his abilities. But we can adopt quick-fighting tactics to completely occupy the entire Dakota before Wokuotai has time to react. Wan Guo. At that time, even if he wants to end the game and clean up the mess, he has no alternative."

Ban Chao agreed: "Quick battle and quick decision are indeed a winning strategy. The so-called soldiers are very fast."

"What happened to the Northern War? If King Xia is at a disadvantage, then even if we abandon the Kingdom of Dawan, we must go to the Central Plains to help out. UU Reading "

Huo An asked about the Northern War.

The marriage of the Western Regions Duhufu and Xiawangfu is actually a community of interests. Even if Chutian unified the Han Empire, it could still reserve relatively large real power for Huo An.

Therefore, if Chutian encounters a crisis, Huo An will consider the Western Region army that will be used to defend Central Asia and go to support Chutian.

However, indulging Wo Kuotai's brutal expansion in Central Asia is not good for the future of the Han Empire.

This requires a clever balance by the Protector of the Western Regions.

Changshi Wang Xuance said: "The Northern War seems to have come to an end. King Xia's army has occupied Hanoi County and Henan Yin and is attacking Hedong County. The three princes are still testing each other's cards."

"It is estimated that they will fight life and death soon. Is there any way to defeat the Guishuang Empire as soon as possible? I need to pacify Dawan before November, because there is an expedition waiting for me to go. Then, say Maybe we can still participate in the Northern War."

Huo An chose a copy of the epic campaign in extremely difficult mode.

He can be regarded as an adventurous lord, but he still gives up a copy of the **** mode.

No one wants to experience the feeling of being surrounded by invincible enemy forces.

The development momentum of the Western Regions Protectorate is fairly good, and Huo An doesn't have to take great risks to pursue a trace of winning percentage.

At present, the lords are relatively restrained.

Wang Xuance replied: "I have a strategy, maybe I can quickly defeat the Guishuang Empire and control Dawan in one fell swoop. But if you want to get something, you have to pay a price."

"You follow me."

Huo An and Wang Xuance went to the backyard to discuss a plan to defeat the Guishuang Empire army. This is the first time the Western Regions Protector's Mansion has fought against the Guishuang Empire.

The Guishuang Empire was an empire established by the Yue family. The Yue family robbed the Dawan Kingdom ruled by the Western Regions Protectorate. Now the Western Regions Protectorate wants to regain its puppet state.
