Cao Chong walked up and glanced at Xiao Qiao beside Cao Cao, but his eyes were fixed on the bamboo slips of the memorial on the table in front of Cao Cao.

Cao Chong has good eyesight. Even if he is one or two meters away, Cao Chong can see the black words on the bamboo slip clearly.

This is the memorial from the Western Regions.

Most of the families in the world moved westward, bringing a group of servants, a lot of gold, silver and money, and most importantly, they carry many classics.

To some extent, these classics are more important than gold, silver and treasures, because these are the condensation of the wisdom of predecessors.

Among them are farming technology, textile technology, culture and political system.

If these things are spread to other countries, of course, it is not good news for Wei.

Therefore, Cao Cao photographed many people going out to monitor these aristocratic families. In addition to hoarding the military forces in Yecheng, Xudu, a large number of soldiers from Wancheng were transferred to Liangzhou.

Cao Cao's determination to recover the Western Regions is not bad.

These reinforcements were in Liangzhou, and those aristocratic families were even more afraid to do something boldly.

However, although the aristocratic families dare not spread the books, some of them were too powerful, which made Cao Cao extremely worried.

The thirty-six countries in the Western Regions are: Wusun, Kucha, Yanqi, Ruoqiang, Loulan, Qiemo, Xiaowan, Ronglu, Mi, Qule, Pishan, Xiye, Puli, Yinai, Shache, Shule, Weitou, Wensu, Yuli, Gumo, Beilu, Wutanzi, Beilu Houguo, Shanhuan, Pule, Pulihou, Xiqimi, Jieguo, Huhu, Shanguo, Cheshiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqi

In addition, there are more than a dozen Western Region countries including Dayuan, Anxi, Dayuezhi, Kangju, Haohan, Kanjuti, Wuyi Shanli, etc., outside the territory of the flower-planting family in later generations.

Among the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, there are big countries and small countries.

There are big countries with tens of thousands of soldiers, while there are only hundreds of soldiers in small countries.

The countries in the Western Regions can maintain their existence mainly because they are too far from the central government. Take Xiaowan as an example. Xiaowan is right beside Dunhuang County. Not to mention Yecheng, even Chang'an, Xiaowan is more than 7,000 miles away. [@!ABC Novel Network @…Free Reading]

In later generations, although more than 7,000 miles were also a long distance, it was not a big deal to have high-speed transportation. However, in this era, when one could only walk with two legs and four legs, this distance means that the authority of the central government is difficult to radiate out. This is also one of the reasons why the countries in the Western Regions were under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty, but the Han Dynasty did not integrate it into one.

Another reason is that apart from being far away, it is poverty and the road is extremely difficult to walk.

Those who dare to come to the Silk Road are those who want to get rich overnight and want to die.

On this road, bandits were rampant, deserts and storms, and when they encountered one, they became a dead bone.

For example, Xiaowan.

"Biography of Xiaowan Guo in the Han Book" records: Wang Zhixu was stern city. He went to Chang'an for 7,210 miles. He had 150 households, 1,500 mouths, and 200 soldiers.

The Marquis of Fuguo and one person on the left and right commanders. They reach the capital of the Protectorate in the northwest and connect with Qiang in the east, and do not prefecture in the south. The Xiaowan Kingdom is located in the south of Qieshima, on the north bank of the Karamilan River. Since it is the Kekexili Mountain in the south, it is relatively remote. The residents are engaged in agricultural production and are from the ancient semen. They belong to the Indo-European Iranian ethnic group.

In such a small country, do you have any specialties? Not to mention the fact that it is Li Chang'an, even the Li Capitol is more than 2,000 miles or 7,000 miles, just for the population of more than 1,000 people?

I'm afraid that the things I get from here are not even enough to pay for the travel fee.

There are no specialties, no one will want these people, just like later generations of Germans did not want to accept black people and the United States built high walls.

For example, Dayuan Kingdom has sweat and blood, but it is not a small country, but a big country. There are probably 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers, which is not an easy-to-conquer product.

There are five major countries in the thirty-six Western Regions, namely Wusun, Kucha, Dayuan, Anxi, and Dayuezhi.

Today's report in Cao Cao said that within five months, there will probably be only fifteen countries in the Western Regions.

In addition to the great powers such as Kucha Wusun Dayuan Anxi Dayuezhi, small countries with only hundreds of war soldiers were directly annexed by the aristocratic families who moved west.

From a certain perspective, the way of regaining the Western Regions this time is a bit special.

This is not to make these countries surrender, but to conquer them.

Each aristocratic family had hundreds or thousands of family soldiers. In order to gain a foothold in the Western Regions, these people replaced all gold, silver and jewelry with things they could use in the Western Regions: food, grass, swords, weapons, armor and armor.

Well-equipped family soldiers are too simple to deal with soldiers who are not even armored in small countries.

At the beginning, the aristocratic families acted together, and their goal was to start the small country, Pulei, which was closest to the former Western Region Protectorate.

Pulei Kingdom, the king ruled the Shuyu Valley in the West of Tianshan Mountain.

He went to Chang'an for 8,360 miles, 325 households, 2,322 mouths, and 799 soldiers. He helped the country, one of the left and right commanders, and one of the left and right commanders. He was southwest to the capital's garrison, 1,387 miles southwest.

Pulei is the easternmost country in the north of the mountain, and is connected to the Xiongnu in the northeast. Its regional scope is about the Balikun Kazakh Autonomous County in the southeast of Balikun Lake.

How can a country with less than a thousand soldiers in a county resist the coalition forces of aristocratic families?

In just three days, before other countries in the Western Regions could react, Pulei became the land of aristocratic families.

The original Puli people all became slaves, and various aristocratic families were stationed in Puli Country.

The families of the Han Dynasty were thanks to the century-long war, which made these families trained themselves to become human-eating tigers. If it were replaced by those scholarly families of the Tang Dynasty, they would be in the current Western Regions, but foods that were eaten by people.

Starting from the Pulei Kingdom, the coalition forces of the aristocratic families cleaned up almost all small countries in Xinjiang except for Kucha and Wusun.

Although these countries are small, they still have a population of nearly 200,000.

Some of the aristocratic families were kept as servants, while the other part was directly used as slaves to serve the aristocratic families in the Western Regions.

And the troops, from the original more than 10,000 to the servants, had 40,000 to 50,000.

This is an amazing number.

Even if the combat effectiveness of the servant soldiers is poor, the number of 40,000 to 50,000 is definitely not a small number.

This is also the reason why Cao Cao was quite angry.

These Western Regions countries were originally fence-bearers, and Cao Cao also planned to use them to destroy the power of the aristocratic family, but now it seems that he has sent some good things to the aristocratic family.

Cao Chong looked at the bamboo slips on Cao Cao's hand for a long time, but a smile flashed on his face.

Cao Cao was curious and couldn't help asking: "Why is the prince laughing? Could this be good news?"

Cao Chong bowed to Cao Cao, but nodded.

"Father, how is this not good news?"

"The aristocratic family is a major concern for the Wei State. If the aristocratic family is not eliminated, it will be difficult for the Wei State to receive the power of its own king. Now the aristocratic family is in a prosperous Western Regions. The soldiers in their hands are better than one day. Not only has the confidant been eliminated, but the momentum is growing. I am afraid that you and me will have a headache in the future."

Cao Chong smiled softly, shook his head, and said, "The father is so bad. This news is good news for both the Wei Kingdom and the father."

Cao Chong's words are somewhat interesting.

Cao Cao said oh and asked, "What does the prince mean?"

Cao Chong smiled softly and said, "The meaning of the son minister is very simple. It is true that the limelight of aristocratic families is very strong, but the wood is so beautiful that the forest wind will destroy it. The small countries in the Western Regions cannot do anything to the aristocratic families. But like those big countries in the Western Regions, they will watch the aristocratic families occupy the territory of these small countries. It is easy for aristocratic families to deal with small countries, but it is probably difficult to deal with the big countries just by relying on the servants in their hands."

The Western Regions can maintain a split state rather than a whole. In addition to cultural inconsistency, they are more likely to maintain a strange stable state.

It's like two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom form a water molecule.

The emergence of aristocratic families now is like turning this stable Western Regions into a pot of boiling red oil.

It is not easy for these families to survive in boiling oil.

"Besides, no matter what, the aristocratic family is considered to be the people of our Wei Kingdom. Their appearance can also make these Western Regions people recall the pressure on us Han people over them. At that time, it will definitely be easier for us to subdue those Western Regions powers."

Cao Chong's words really make sense. Cao Cao thought about it and then he put his heart down.

"It turns out that I want to teach you. If you don't want you, please teach me. It seems that there is nothing to teach you about governing the country."

Cao Chong shook his head and said, "My son is a little anxious. The father wants to teach Me, but there are many more. For example, there is a difficult thing now, and Me, I don't know what to do..."

A tricky thing?

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and finally found some comfort for himself.
