Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Zhao Yun closed his eyes and thought quietly, thinking about the current situation in Cheshi Country.

Not to mention the royal family, the relationship between Cheshi people and Wusun has become a fire and water. Zhao Yun can be sure that as long as this fire is stirred up, Cheshi country will inevitably be in chaos.

But this is not what he wants. He wants to take over Cheshi Kingdom, but the people of Cheshi cannot die too much. He also needs to rely on Cheshi Kingdom to resist the Wusun people. If the damage to Cheshi Kingdom is too serious, it will not meet his original intention. , and it’s not in your interest either.

The information has been collected almost, and the next step is to take a look at the attitude of the car master king.

Zhao Yun thought for a while and decided to meet the car master king in person.

Of course, he came to the King of Cheshi as a wealthy businessman of the Han family to seek cooperation. He showed his identity as soon as he came up. If the King of Cheshi was unwilling to abandon Wusun, then Zhao Yun would have only one way to escape. .

"Changshan Zhao Family?" The Che Master King was in a daze listening to the minister's report.

The big man only knows Chang'an. Where is Changshan? That's something I've never heard of.

"Your Majesty, no matter what, it sounds like they are from the Han Dynasty family. I can't afford to neglect them." The minister bowed.

Although the relationship between Wusun and the Han people is tense now, it is impossible not to make money if it is tense. Half of Cheshi's income comes from farming, and the other half is from doing business. If it weren't for this damn place, it is at the junction of the forces of Wusun and Han. Here, it is easy to be attacked by the Wusun people. Only ghosts want to join forces with the Wusun people to attack the big man.

As for preventing Han merchants from coming in, that would be tantamount to cutting off one's life, and the Wusun people would not dare to do that.

I have cooperated with the Han family before, and the business was quite profitable, but for some reason, it disappeared later. Now that another one finally came, the Che Master King naturally did not dare to neglect it, and quickly asked someone to invite him in. .

"Zhao Yun of Changshan, I have met the King of Chariots!" Zhao Yun came in and saw the King of Chariots, and gave him a slight salute.

"No need to be polite." The Cheshi King shook his head, looked at Zhao Yun and said, "Where is this Changshan Mountain? Is it a mountain of the Han Dynasty?"

"It is a county. There is indeed a Changshan Mountain to the east of Taihang Mountain, but it is a county." Zhao Yun explained with a smile.

"I see." The Cheshi Wang looked like he understood, and then asked curiously: "I heard that the largest place in the Han Dynasty is a prefecture. Is this Taihang Mountain a prefecture?"

Zhao Yun: "..."

For a moment, he didn't know how to explain it. Zhao Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head, and explained the relationship between Dahan Prefecture and County. It actually had nothing to do with the mountain, it was just a place name.

However, a country in the Western Regions may not even be considered a county in the Han Dynasty. The system of states and counties is obviously very far away for them.

After Zhao Yun explained it, the Car Master King couldn't wait to discuss cooperation, but Zhao Yun was just pretending to be a business traveler. He didn't know what a business traveler was supposed to do.

Seeing the urgent question from the Chariot King, Zhao Yun thought for a moment, then raised his head and looked at the Chariot King and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that I'm rude, it's just that when I entered the city, the Wusun people were so hateful that I came all the way from thousands of miles away. , I really hope to be able to cooperate with your country, but in the current situation, I have been robbed by the other party before I even entered the city, and it seems that I want to kill people and seize things. In this situation, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to maintain cooperation with your country. "

"Wusun..." the driver king said with a bitter smile: "But I made you laugh. Drivers were not like this before."

"Looking at the king's appearance, he doesn't want to be with Wusun. I wonder what is hidden in this?" Zhao Yun asked curiously.

"It's really hard to say, but what can I do?" The Che Master King said with a bitter smile. It's hard to hold his son accountable if he is chopped off. What can you do to him?

"The people in the city also have complaints about the Wusun people. In addition, I see that there are not too many Wusun people in the city. Why not try to expel them?" Zhao Yun said when he saw the Cheshi King like this.

"It's easier said than done?" Hearing this, King Cheshi said helplessly: "This Wusun bypassed the Altai Mountains and came down from the north. The first country is our Cheshi country. The Cheshi country only has more than ten thousand citizens and only two thousand soldiers at most. Once there is a battle, I’m afraid there will be a massacre of the city immediately.”

"Why don't you go to Hanting to seek asylum?" Zhao Yun frowned.

"I don't believe it." The Car Master King sighed and shook his head.

"Don't believe it?" Zhao Yun frowned. He didn't remember that the big man had a history of bullying the weak and humiliating the countries in the Western Region, so why didn't he believe it?

Chariot driver Wang Jian and Zhao Yun showed displeasure, slightly embarrassed, and said with a wry smile: "Sorry, it's not that I don't want to. It's just that the chariot driver is not far from Wusun, but the big man is thousands of miles away, so what if I can protect him for a while? In the past, The big man also said that he would protect the countries in the Western Regions, but what was the result? When he left, did he take a look at the citizens of each country who were begging for help? "

When the Western Regions were still in the hands of the Han Dynasty, the countries in the Western Regions basically regarded themselves as part of the Han Dynasty, but what happened next? When the Han Dynasty wanted to shrink the defense line, it said it would put it down. The countries in the Western Regions sent envoys to the Han Dynasty several times to request that the Western Regions Protectorate be re-established. However, several generations have passed and it has not been re-established until now.

If you don't want to do it anymore, you can pat your butt and walk away. But how can we face the powerful Wusun if we are left behind? If they are really coming, why should they stop their ferocious cavalry when their clan is exterminated? By love?

So even though they were being severely oppressed by Wusun, they never thought of going to the big man for help. Once trust was destroyed, it would be difficult to rebuild it.

Although life is difficult, at least you can live. If you surrender to a big man and walk away like before, then who can you talk to?

Zhao Yun was silent when he heard this, because he couldn't guarantee whether Lu Bu would have similar thoughts. After all, the Han Dynasty was still in civil strife and the princes were divided. If the war situation was urgent, it would not be wrong for Lu Bu to withdraw the troops from the Western Regions. Impossible. Based on Zhao Yun's understanding of Lu Bu, although Lu Bu loves the people, he also has choices.

Look at the initial sweep of the Hetao, they were heading straight for the annihilation of their tribes. The first battle not only defeated the Southern Huns, but also wiped out half of the tribes in the Hetao. Now among the tribes in the Hetao, the sight of the Han people makes them jealous. soft.

There seems to be a difference between the Western Region and the Hetao, but it is obviously impossible to expect Lu Bu to treat the people of the Western Region as he treats the people of the Han Dynasty.

"Hasn't the king ever thought about self-protection?" Zhao Yun came with a mission after all. Like Lu Bu, he was a Han first, so although he couldn't bear it, he still hoped to try his best to persuade the King of Chariots for this battle.

"Self-protection?" The driver king seemed to have heard some joke and looked at Zhao Yun and said: "May I ask your Excellency, how can I protect myself?"

Just based on the weak city wall of Jiaohe City? Or tens of thousands of people?

If the Wusun people pass by and shoot an arrow at them, they can destroy other countries!

How to protect yourself in this situation.

"The strength of the chariot nation may be slightly lacking, but what if all the countries in the Western Regions join forces to fight against Wusun?" Zhao Yun asked.

The thirty-six countries in the Western Region, these small countries united, are also a powerful force.

"Even if Yanqi and Qiuci are included, all the countries in the Western Regions combined may not have as many soldiers and horses as the Wusun family. What's more, the Yanqi and Qiuci countries are now very close to Wusun. What's the point of connecting other small countries? Use it?" The driver king said with a bitter smile.

The Cheshi Kingdom is already considered to be an upper-middle-class country in the Western Region. It has a population of only more than 10,000, and the number of troops it can deploy is only more than a thousand. The effects of Yiwu, Yizhi, and Pulei can be combined together. Even the driver can’t compare!

And what about Wusun?

Regardless of whether Qiuci and Yanqi, the two 'big' countries second only to Wusun among the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, support Wusun, Wusun's 100,000 troops alone can sweep across the Western Regions. Such a powerful enemy, Without the suppression of the Han Dynasty, how could the small countries in the Western Region have the courage to provoke them, let alone unite? Even if they united to fight a war, they would still win less than a hundred times.

Zhao Yun rubbed his temples. It was like when the princes beat Dong Zhuo. People's hearts were all in disarray. How could he beat him? The princes at least have more troops and wealth than Dong Zhuo. But here in the Western Region, no one has as many people and no one has as much financial resources. How can we fight?

Zhao Yun did not expect that his first real battle would be so difficult.

But no matter how difficult it is, it still needs to be done.

Now it is obviously impossible to persuade the Driver King to defect, so he can only say sorry. He must hold Jiaohe City in his hands. Now Zhao Yun can only silently give the Driver King a guarantee in his heart that he will definitely do it. solve this problem.

I'm afraid no one will believe this promise, but once a person like Zhao Yun makes up his mind, he will definitely carry it out.

There was no expression on his face, but after hesitating for a moment, he saluted the driver Wang Yi: "But if it's like this, we don't dare to deliver the goods at all. If we don't do it properly, we may even risk our lives."

Hearing this, the driver king nodded bitterly and did not argue anything. Any argument would be pale and feeble in the face of the facts.

Zhao Yun looked at the chariot master Wang and said: "Your Majesty, I sincerely come here to do business. If you and I can reach an agreement, not only our Changshan area, but also Youzhou and Jizhou, there will be a large number of caravans coming here. Your Majesty, please consider ?”

"This..." The Car Master King hesitated, looked at Zhao Yun and said, "But there is really nothing I can do."

"In this case, I won't embarrass the king. Please invite Wusun's general from the Cheshi Kingdom. Let's discuss it together. What does the king think?" Zhao Yun looked at the Cheshi King and said, "We can do business together. If we can take it away, it will not be without benefit to Wusun."

The King of Chariot Masters was a little moved when he heard this. After much hesitation, he nodded and said: "That's fine, I'll go and discuss it with Na Bonuchi. Your Excellency, you can rest in this palace first, and I will give you an answer tomorrow!"

"Okay, then I'll wait for the good news!" Zhao Yun breathed a sigh of relief. The only strategy he could think of was this one. Although it was a bit old, it would work.

"Definitely!" The Cheshi King quickly stood up and ordered people to arrange for Zhao Yun to live in the palace, and then hurriedly left to find General Wusun to discuss the matter.

General Wusun did not doubt that he was there. After all, this was his territory. He immediately agreed and brought his guards to the palace early the next morning to see what the Han man had to say.
