Chu Wei returned, with scars and half a life. Three of the five people who accompanied him died, turning into three jars of ashes. The second, third and fourth brothers had become ashes. The fifth brother and the guide who led the way were not dead. However, the fifth brother broke an arm and the guide threw an ear. None of them had left Goguryeo's territory intact. They desperately brought back a herb, herb growing in a village in the inland Goguryeo.

Chu Wei didn't say much about the specific situation, but when Suning saw Chu Wei, Chu Wei's spirit almost collapsed. When Chu Wei recovered a little, Suning asked him again, a man like steel, but he cried even more than a woman. He talked about the cause of death of the second, third and fourth brothers, the fifth brothers' arms and the ears of the guide, and his scars, and the carrier pigeon that turned into pigeon broth at a critical moment and saved the three of them.

The things that the herbs, Lao San and Lao Si, fought desperately to grab back, were served by a group of Goguryeo people as treasures. It is said that people infected with the plague can be cured by eating the medicine made from this herb, and the Goguryeo people will not sit and wait for death. When Chu Wei and others heard the news, they rushed to the legendary paradise, the previous order had been restored, guarded by some people, lived and lived in the village.

However, they were very opposed to outsiders, and outsiders were generally not allowed to enter. Chu Wei and others took out all their property before they were allowed to enter. They also obtained two herbs under the premise that the second and fifth brothers were infected with the plague, and then survived and were cured. Chu Wei was very surprised and finally obtained herbs that could cure the plague. He wanted to obtain some and then take them away, but these herbs were taken very strictly.

The subsequent series of plans were to obtain these herbs. The second, third and fourth brothers died one after another. The fifth brother originally planned to sacrifice his own, but was saved by the guide and lost an arm, but his life was saved. Chu Wei was injured a lot, but it was not endangered. After escaping all the way, they at least fled back to the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

He lost three subordinates in a row, and the only surviving one arm, basically losing his combat power. How could Chu Wei not be sad?

As for the magical herb, Suning handed it to Sun Simiao. Although the Tang Dynasty himself also developed a special medicine to deal with the plague, this herb can actually deal with the plague in such an environment. Maybe it is really a special medicinal material, which will also be of great help to some future medical research in the Tang Dynasty. And I don’t know what kind of medicinal material this herb is, and whether it has grown in the Central Plains. If not, it may be a special product of Goguryeo.

Sun Simiao began to produce a large number of special medicines to prepare for the terrible plague. Although there were existences similar to paradises in Goguryeo, just looking at Chu Wei and the others' experiences, Suning also understood that those people definitely did not intend to rescue others. When people are selfish, they are very scary. If you don't let me live, you don't want to live. Almost everyone has such consciousness, so when can that paradise exist? Suning expressed doubts.

As for the situation in Goguryeo and other issues, Suning did not want to do more research, so that the soldiers who were preparing to land on the shore to sweep the entire Liaodong Peninsula would take medicine, regardless of whether it was as useful as a vaccine. However, at least this special medicine would bring psychological comfort to the soldiers. The treatment of one hundred people was cured by one hundred people, and the effectiveness of this special medicine has been confirmed. As for the herbs that Chu Wei desperately brought back, Sun Simiao also used it for research. At present, it seems that it does not seem to grow in the Central Plains.

The Goguryeo people who divided the eight thousand soldiers into hundreds of teams to sweep the Liaodong Peninsula together. Suning did not intend to give them special medicines. They were all disgusting guys. After occupying the Liaodong Peninsula again, they would contact us to see if they could find people like Quan Gai Suwen. Of course, Suning hoped that Quan Gai Suwen was dead, so the entire Goguryeo generals became the territory of the Tang Dynasty without bloodshed. If Quan Gai Suwen was not dead yet, there would be a final decisive battle.

With artillery in hand, all this has become a foregone conclusion.

Is Anshi City, which was originally unbreakable, still unbreakable? Is the city defense, which was originally as solid as a plague, now been defeated by the plague? Is Quan Gaisuwen still alive? These are all questions.

Two months after the retreat of the Liaodong Peninsula, with the help of special medicines, the Tang Dynasty re-landed on the Liaodong Peninsula at the end of November in winter to carry out a sweeping battle. The plague was swept away and then consolidated the defense line. Then he wrote a memorial to report to His Majesty Li Er, informing His Majesty Li Er that the Tang Dynasty could return to the Liaodong Peninsula as soon as possible, and asked His Majesty Li Er to arrange troops to arrive in Yingzhou and Liaodong Peninsula as soon as possible, prepare to advance in the two directions, clean up the Goguryeo people, and then clean up Silla and Baekje, so as not to waste great opportunities.

It just so happened that the Tang Dynasty could give special medicines to treat plague to Silla and Baekje, so that their citizens would have a good impression of the Tang Dynasty. After that, the Tang Dynasty's offensive and conquest would achieve good results, and it could also appease the local people in a short period of time. The conquest methods used were still the same as before. Those who surrendered were given citizenship to the Tang Dynasty, and those who did not surrender were taken as slaves on the spot, becoming the main labor force for the construction of the local area. The two-level differentiation strategy allowed the local people to be divided into two factions, one faction could only rely firmly on the Tang Dynasty, and the faction that was classified as slaves would hate those who became citizens of the Tang Dynasty more than those who hated the Tang Dynasty.

They will forever undermine each other and lose the ability to unite to resist the Tang Dynasty.

Then there is a war against Japan. After taking down the Korean Peninsula, we must prepare for a war against Japan. It is a great time. We will clean them all up in one go, so don’t wait for the next war to be launched. The war in Japan also made the North Sea Navy and the East Sea Navy show their strength and new weapons and artillery show their strength. According to Japanese intelligence, since the Tang Dynasty entered Goguryeo, Japan has been conducting secret war preparations. On the surface, it is still the same as before, but the Japanese navy has taken action.

The Japanese Kingdom was destroyed in one breath, and then the Eastern War came to an end. The Tang Dynasty could safely develop the Northeast and Goryeo hometowns, and focus all its energy on the strategy of advancing westward, which might be easier or perhaps even easier.

The strategy of advancing west has been determined. The first step is to help the Persian Empire defeat the attack of the Arab Empire, stabilize the front line, so that the Persian Empire can stabilize their own territory, and appropriately reorganize and train the incompetent army of the Persian Empire, so that the Persian army can compete with the Arab army without the assistance of the Tang army. Of course, this is only the military aspect, making them stronger.

In addition, the Tang Dynasty was definitely not doing good deeds, definitely not rejuvenated the Persian Empire, not making him go crazy, nor to respect the elderly, but to master all the information of the Persian Empire, the Arab Empire, and even the Roman Empire in the west, and to trade with them. For the Persian Empire, we are bullying him. In addition to the military's training, officials and political forces must do their best to infiltrate and infiltrate again.

In terms of business and culture, since the Persian Empire itself has a certain degree of civilization, this civilization is not inferior to the Central Plains civilization to some extent. Therefore, the suppression of civilization requires military and commercial forces to promote the silk and other gorgeous items of the Tang Dynasty. These four hundred years of powerful people and royal families must like luxury items. They are borers, so it doesn’t matter at all to make them even more borers.

At that time, let the Arab army help eliminate the trained Persian army, and then the Tang Empire takes the opportunity to take over the Persian Empire, destroy it, annex it, and directly advance to Central Asia and West Asia to complete the second step; as for the third step, it will not be solved in a short while. The third step is the attack and embezzlement of the Arab Empire. If you want to get in touch with the farthest steps of your predecessors, you must open up the road to interact with the Roman Empire.

During the Han Dynasty, the Chinese reached the eastern border of the Roman Empire as far as the time, and had good contact with the Roman Empire. That was the footsteps of the predecessors. Later generations had to try every means to open it up and go further to see the European region mentioned by Suning, as well as the splendid and glorious Greek civilization.

Isham, who was full of joy and felt that there was great hope of restoring the former glory of the empire, naturally did not know that he was definitely a move to attract wolves into the house. It was easy to invite Buddha to send Buddha. Since the Tang Dynasty came, he did not plan to leave so easily. Moreover, Chai Shao had reason to believe that even if the Tang Dynasty army defeated the Arab Empire's army and defeated the famous general Khalid, the Persian Empire itself was unable to continue the glory created by the Tang Dynasty.

This is a war between two powerful emerging empires, and it has nothing to do with a twilight empire. The Sassanid dynasty, which has been corroded by borers, has reached its end. It will take him a while to exist, but it will not last forever. It will only exist until the Tang Dynasty allows it to exist.

After leaving the Western Regions, hundreds of years later, the Han people once again stepped on the road that had been lost for unknown periods. Even at the moment of leaving the border, Chai Shao felt a floating feeling. He was familiar with poetry and books and knew that the so-called Great Qin Kingdom was the Roman Kingdom in these people, thousands of miles away. During the Han Dynasty, the Han people had arrived there and visited the Roman Kingdom. After that, most of the exchanges were interrupted for nearly a thousand years.

The powerful and wealthy Roman Empire at the time also split into two empires in the east and west. The western empire has been destroyed. Now there is only the eastern empire. Although it is still powerful, it is not a little worse than its predecessor. As for the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty's current territory has surpassed any moment in history. It reaches the border of the grassland in the north, reaches the border of the sea in the south, the east to the east of Liaodong, and the west to the west of the Western Regions. It is twice the territory of the former Sui Dynasty, and it is also the largest time in history.

Moreover, Chai Shao believed that the process would not end. The Tang people would not be satisfied, the emperor would not be satisfied, the generals would not be satisfied, and the soldiers would not be satisfied. The world map was hung on the head of the emperor's bedside every day, on the screen of the staff headquarters. Every general's home had a world map, which marked where there was no land occupied by no one, where there was a very rich land occupied by someone, where there was wealth, where there was land, where there was future and dawn.

In the past, people always looked at the sky from a well, thinking that the land under their feet was the world, and the border was the eight desolates. Unifying the Central Plains means unifying the whole world. But how big is the world? Where is the eight desolates? Compared with the world, the land of the Central Plains is just a mere piece. The entire world and the vast sea will be conquered and occupied?

Maybe there will never be such an opportunity after exhausting your life, but Chai Shao still wants to take the first step by himself. This first step is a meaningful step, the first step for the Tang Dynasty to advance towards more ancient civilizations, and the first step for the first collision between Han civilization and other excellent nations. This is destined to become an important milestone in world history. r1152
