Chapter 18 No Thunder Country

To the west of the Pamir Plateau, a caravan slowly came over, and the twin camels were hung with goods from the Great Moon and the Rest.

The lingering camel bells wandering in the valley.

"It's finally here." A man in a robe showed a happy smile. After going through a lot of hardships, he finally arrived at his destination - Wu Lei Country.

The Wulei Kingdom is an ancient country in the Western Regions, and it is more important. To the west is the Great Yuezhi. It has a superior terrain and is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Looking down at the Great Yuezhi all the way, it is a place where mountains and rivers gather.

Hudmoxiu jumped down and shouted loudly: "Everyone should sort out his appearance and not lose the face of the great king of kings and kings of all kingdoms."

Others took action.

"This is really a good place. You can be independent of the world by just guarding a few key places. Although it is remote and high, it does not feel cold at all."

Hudmoxiu withdrew his gaze and said to the guide beside him: "What's wrong?"

The guide on the side was frowning, with a warning in his eyes, and there was no excitement on his face to go home. The guide was shocking, and Hudmoxiu finally found a way to lead the way.

"Something is wrong, it's too quiet." Thinking of the thought, he whispered: "On this time, there must be someone here to prevent anyone from entering the mountain, but now there is no one."

The guide's nose shook: "There is a burnt smell."

Hudmoxiu also heard it.

"No."

He looked around: "It may be that something has been delayed, or the soldiers have changed into guarding places."

The wizard's eyes flashed, hesitating.

Hudmoxiu said coldly: "Do you want to ask for more money, or this is not a Thunderless Country at all."

"No, of course this is the Thunderless Country."

Hudmoxiu had already drawn out his sword, and the guide was so scared that he waved his hand quickly.

"Since it's here, keep moving forward." Hudmoxiu took his sword back: "Keep forward."

The guide had to continue leading the way in disappointment. The road was very quiet and peaceful, and there was no trace of fighting.

"Maybe I guessed wrong." The guide murmured in his mind.

About a quarter of an hour later, a city can be seen standing in the center from afar.

At first, it was extremely narrow, and suddenly it became clear.

The city is not small, square. Looking down from here, the entire city is very reasonable and has five exits.

"Who?"

There were two soldiers guarding the intersection.

Hoodmoxu glanced at the guide and signaled him to come forward and speak.

The guide stepped forward to communicate with several soldiers and explained the purpose of coming here.

"Want to see the Queen?"

The guide was stunned. Why did he suddenly become a queen? He remembered clearly before that it was the King of Fat House, so he asked his own questions.

A soldier was very polite: "The king died of sudden illness and is now the queen who succeeded to the throne."

Another soldier pulled him, and the soldier immediately shut his mouth and stopped talking.

"The Queen has just succeeded to the throne and no outsiders are allowed to enter, so I have to inform you, you are here to wait for a moment," said the soldier.

The guide relayed the soldier's words. After hearing this, Hudmoxiu felt a little unlucky. The queen had just taken the throne and was afraid she would not want to take a big sword.

However, there is another possibility. In order to stabilize one's position, military achievements may also be needed.

—————

If the guide saw the scene in the city, he would probably not look like this.

In Wulei Kingdom City, there were suddenly a series of flags, and every time they came, there was a text that the Western Regions had never seen - "Qin".

If Anuti saw this scene, his expression would probably change drastically.

In the palace, a woman wearing a tulle was sitting in the main seat, with two small seats, and an old man with a long hair and a young face.

"I, I blame you for your mistake." A man with a relatively bloated figure held a wine glass and apologized to a tall fair-skinned man.

The tall man took the man's apology wine, drank it all in one go, wiped the wine drops from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, and smiled slightly, "Who said that I was a coward at that time, and married his daughter to a barbarian."

Everyone burst into laughter, the bloated man looked a little flushed, and looked at everyone and said, "Why are you laughing at? I said, I admit it, but I didn't know the truth at that time. What about you, I've said a lot in private."

Others didn't respond.

"Old Cheng, it seems that this matter was started by you, don't frame a good person."

Lao Cheng shook his sleeves, cursed a few words in his mouth, and returned to his position.

The tall man smiled and said, "This is Mr. Li's idea. Mr. Li and I know about this matter. It was to leak the news that this was the worst way forward."

Old Cheng sat down and shouted: "Chao, you can't trust me, Old Cheng. I have a tight mouth. If I had known this...."

The tall man named Chao Chao said, "If I had known this, I would probably have been beaten once."

Everyone knew that the others were beaten up for no reason, and the man covered his head, so everyone didn't know who it was.

And when he heard this tone, it seemed to be Lao Cheng?

Everyone turned their heads and saw that Lao Cheng's black face became darker and darker. Lao Cheng rubbed his hands and said a little embarrassedly: "I was so angry at that time, but how did you know it was me? I came with my face covering."

He smiled slightly: "You can smell the smell on your body even if it is burned to ashes."

Lao Cheng patted his head: "I forgot, it seemed like I had drunk wine at that time."

Someone said slowly below: "Lao Cheng, your wine is brewed from Chao."

Old Cheng smiled.

"Cough cough." Old Li on the top coughed a few times, and people immediately closed their mouths.

"This plan was successful, thanks to Chaohe Xiner, especially Xiner, who paid the most for this matter and could be said to be the first hero."

Everyone's eyes fell on the current Queen of Thunder Kingdom, the daughter of Chao.

They all raised their wine glasses and paid tribute.

"This is what I should have done." A cold word came from behind the veil.

A trace of guilt flashed into the eyes below, but it was quickly erased.

"Let's continue to discuss how to completely control the Thunder Country in our hands."

The country of Wu Lei has five thousand households, a population of 31,000, and a victory of 8,000 soldiers. It seems to be a small country, but for the descendants of the Qin people, it is a big trouble.

Qin Shihuang conquered Baiyue in the south, attacked the Xiongnu in the north, developed the northern border, and opened up the southwest, greatly expanding his territory.

However, his steps did not stop there.

In the name of searching for Queen Mother of the West, he sent an envoy to explore the west.
