Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

In just half a month, Ma Di's armed mission swept through half of the Western Region. Several unconvinced small countries argued with Ma Di one after another, and then Ma Di, including the king and princes, was caught.

However, during a mission to the Western Regions, Ma Di discovered the problems in the Western Regions. Because many small countries exist side by side, most of the roads in the Western Region are very dilapidated.

The main reason why Ma Su destroyed four countries in half a month was because the roads were impassable.

From this aspect, the Western Regions are similar to Nanzhong in Yizhou. At this time, Ma Di began to consider whether it would be appropriate to govern the Western Regions in the same way that the Prime Minister governed Nanzhong?

Maybe, try it later.

Ma Su didn't know that his mission in the Western Regions had caused panic in all countries in the Western Regions. Even Wusun, who was said to have hundreds of thousands of bow guides, was trembling, fearing that the Han army would whip them if they disagreed.

This time, if you are simply dissatisfied with the big man's conditions and object a few words, the big man will send out 5,000 people to whip you. If there is any conflict in the future and the main force of the Han army leaves Dunhuang again, will the entire Western Region be bulldozed?

From then on, all countries in the Western Regions began to express their stance. Wherever Ma Di went, all countries wholeheartedly welcomed him. The king would accept all Ma Su's requests, no matter how outrageous.

This situation lasted for more than two months, and Ma Su basically traveled throughout the Western Regions. Except for several countries in Qiuci, Ma Su never encountered anyone who dared to cause trouble.

Finally, Ma Su led five thousand cavalry to the Wusun Kingdom, the last stop of his mission to the Western Regions.

The Wusun Kingdom is one of the few large countries in the Western Regions, with hundreds of thousands of bow-guides. Although there are actually not that many people, compared to a small country with tens of thousands of people, Wusun can already be regarded as a powerful power in the Western Region.

After Ma Di entered the capital of Wusun, the King of Wusun invited princes, princesses and civil and military officials to visit Ma Di. After meeting Ma Su, the king of the great country had an extremely humble attitude towards Ma Su.

"The king of a small country has seen the envoy of the Han Dynasty!" The king of Wusun State saluted respectfully and took his children to greet Ma Su.

Not wanting to hit the smiling man, and Wusun being quite supportive of the big man, Ma Di also nodded, jumped off his horse and returned the favor to the king of Wusun.

After some polite greetings, the king of Wusun invited the Han army to enter the city and garrison it. At the same time, the king also held a banquet in the palace for Ma Di and a group of Han military generals.

The Wusun Kingdom was a big country in the Western Region, and its family was not that small, so it could still afford to treat Ma Di to a big dinner.

At the banquet, Ma Su briefly summarized the requirements of the Western Region Protectorate of the Han Dynasty. Countries in the Western Regions need to obey the Protectorate and send their princes to the Western Regions.

Not only that, Wusun also needs to be responsible for maintaining smooth trade routes within its territory and maintaining public security and many other issues.

Of course, the big man will not let you work in vain. Everyone can make money after the Silk Road is restarted. Moreover, if there is a conflict in the Western Regions, the Han Dynasty will take the initiative to mediate.

"Chengdu Imperial College will also be open to all countries in the Western Regions from now on, and all countries in the Western Regions can send students to study in Chengdu." Ma Su obeyed and calmly explained to Wusun Kingdom the regulations for the supervision of the Western Regions by the Shu Han regime.

Ma Su said it very smoothly and did not say what will happen if you don't accept it. However, judging from Ma Su's actions of destroying several small countries along the way, it seems that the consequences are quite serious.

Faced with the conditions proposed by Ma Su, the king of Wusun did not dare to refuse. However, while accepting the conditions given by Ma Su, the King of Wusun made a request.

"Marriage?" Ma Su was slightly startled.

"Yes, we hope to make peace with the Emperor of Han." King Wusun nodded and said seriously.

"If the Emperor agrees, hundreds of thousands of bow-stringers from my Wusun army will all be willing to fight to the death for the Han Dynasty, and together we will kill the thief Wei who has stolen the country!"

Peace has always been a political method used by the Han Dynasty to target various states. During the Western Han Dynasty, if your country did not marry a Han Dynasty princess, you would not dare to say that you were a Han Dynasty dog ​​when you went out.

This kind of political interaction through marriage often represents the establishment of a solid alliance and means that we are a family from now on.

Therefore, the Wusun Kingdom fully accepted Ma Su's request for the Western Region Protectorate, but offered marriage as a guarantee. Otherwise, what if we invest all the money, food, soldiers and horses here, and the big man suddenly crosses the river and demolishes the bridge?

Of course, even if they get married, there's probably nothing they can do if the big man wants to burn bridges...

Regarding this request, Ma Di pondered for a while and said that he would report it to the emperor when he returned, and the emperor would personally approve it.

After all, he, Ma Su, is still a minister, and he is still not qualified to make decisions for Liu Chan.

But in theory, Liu Chan should not veto such a request. After all, he has many daughters. If the entire Western Region is stabilized at the cost of a daughter, it will be a bloody gain no matter how you look at it.

Except for the marriage issue, the two parties have basically reached an agreement on other matters. King Wusun immediately asked his second son to go to Dunhuang with Ma Su and "study" in Chengdu as a student.

As for the trade routes in the Western Regions, the king said that whenever a Han merchant was killed in Wusun, he would personally go to Chengdu to plead guilty to the emperor.

After completing Wusun, Ma Di's mission to the Western Regions was basically over. Ma Di then led five thousand cavalry and the hostages sent to the Han Dynasty from various countries in the Western Regions back to Liangzhou.

At this time, the diplomatic missions from various countries in Dunhuang had been staying in Dunhuang for three months with fear. News of Ma Di's sweep across the Western Regions continued to spread, and missions from several countries had become stateless.

Even the envoy who was lucky enough to keep his nationality did not dare to relax, for fear that Ma Di would kill him.

After waiting in fear for three months, I finally heard that Ma Di, the governor of Liangzhou, had returned from an envoy to the Western Regions with his troops.

The news came as a relief to everyone that, at least for now, their home was saved.

Well...except for those few whose homes are gone.

Chen Zhi was the most pleasantly surprised. He had tried every means to persuade him, but in the end, these envoys from the Western Regions didn't buy it at all. As a result, as soon as my envoy took action, all the problems were solved after just three months of self-driving tour in the Western Regions.

This actually gave the good old man Chen Zhi a new way of thinking. It seems that many things cannot be accomplished simply by being easy to talk.

Before you show your fists, people will always treat you as a piece of cake. On the contrary, for a general who shouts and kills and destroys the country and the enemy at every turn, the other party wants to sit down and talk more than our own side.

This time Ma Youchang went on a mission to the Western Regions, not only to solve the problems in the Western Regions, but also to change the way this good old man of the Later Han Dynasty dealt with problems.

Finally, after Ma Di returned to Dunhuang and personally presided over it, the Shu Han's Western Region Protectorate was officially established in Dunhuang. Chen Zhi was appointed as the first Protector of the Western Regions and was fully responsible for the affairs of the countries in the Western Regions.

The seemingly intractable problem in the Western Regions was solved by Ma Su, who defeated ten generals.
