Ran Liang's pacification of the Xifu Kingdom had already expanded to the limit of his population.

If there is not enough population, or enough "national" population, it will be a very dangerous situation to expand.

Han people, who originally had a small number of people, will inevitably be diluted as their territory expands.

It won't take long, and soon there will be a danger of reverse assimilation by the Hu people in the Western Regions, which are dominant in numbers.

Therefore, Ran Liang was already planning to maintain his current territory and first develop his national strength and accumulate population.

However, some of Ran Liang's ideas can only be their own wishful thinking.

He didn't know that he was about to face the more intense anger and revenge of the Sassanian Empire.

The capital of the Sassanid Empire, the city of Firuzabad.

As a powerful empire, the city of Firuzabad has a prosperous and large scale that matches the empire.

Since Ardashir II, the king of the Sassanian Empire, was defeated and captured by the Orientals not long ago, the Sassanian nobles in the entire city of Firuzabad have never stopped their thoughts of avenging the Orientals.

However, at that time, the throne of the Sassanian Empire was vacant. According to the customs of the Sassanian Empire, all members of the royal family had to first use their swords and guns to fight to decide on the new monarch.

Finally, after more than a year of fighting, the new Sassanid monarch ascended the throne.

"I passed my order to send all the taxes for this year to the Eastern border for spare. I would like to think of the Armenians, Kurds, Bedouin, Jews, Hekantans, and Sogdians in China to collect double the cap tax, and to impose another 200,000 vassal army. I will lead the brave Sassanian warriors to regain the East of the Empire."

In the gorgeous Sassanian Palace, the new king Huo Silao was mobilizing orders to his prime minister and generals.

This mobilization order will then be sent to the governors from all over the country under the teleportation of the King's messenger.

Then there was a steady stream of military supplies and soldiers leading into the East, and then fired a revenge war to those Easterners.

"Your Majesty, the Sogdians, the Huns, and the Hualazimians in the East have betrayed us. If we attacked, should we please win them back to our camp first?"

The prime minister of Sassanid King Huo Silao suggested.

"What we say makes sense, especially the Huns have already plundered the Hualazimu area, and there is no way to rob it. If we can lure them to attack the Easterners, we can share all the seized wealth to them. I only have the land and the enemy's heads."

Huo Silao said generously.

In recent years, with repeated aid from the Han army in the Western Regions, the Huns entrenched on the eastern coast of the Caspian Sea have quickly become stronger.

Especially under the leadership of the Hunter leader Idira, he frequently attacked the borders of the Sassanian Empire and completely turned the Hulazimu area into a Huns' horse-dressing land.

However, these Huns were barbaric and backward, and apart from burning, killing, looting, they soon had no source of wealth. The Sassanian Empire believed that as long as they could give a generous price, it was not difficult for the Huns to counterattack the Easterners.

After all, the entire Sassanian Empire is now rumored that the territory of the Oriental people is filled with shining wealth.

Honey and jam flowing all over the land of the Oriental people, and the warehouses are filled with gorgeous silk and exquisite porcelain. It is too simple to let the greedy Huns plunder.

"Your Majesty, to deal with these Eastern people, we not only need to fight for the barbarian tribes of the Huns, but also seek more powerful civilized countries, such as the Gupta dynasty or the Kushans."
