The story of Princess Jiangdu being canonized as Princess Anyang was spread to Dunhuang the next day and spread throughout the world. Perhaps the title of this princess is slightly lower than that of Queen Yitong, and is quite useful in all countries. Soon, many kings of the Liu surname announced that they had enthroned a beloved woman as the princess.

On the tenth day after the Anyang King and Princess Jiangdu officially got married, officials from the Anyang Kingdom over 1,000 stones came to Jingyang Hall. This time, not only did several generals stationed in the border appear, but there were even the Queen of the Northern Huns Wuya and Wusun Kunmoxutuomi, as well as Cai Mei, the left prime minister of Dayuan.

Huo Guang was wearing a crown robe and sat high above. Looking at the hall of nearly a hundred people in the hall, he couldn't help but feel proud. Now he could finally say that his powerful generals are like clouds and counselors are like rain.

"Dongfangsheng, Gaoyou." Huo Guang sat steadily, with a majestic voice coming from his mouth. He first called two names that were not well-known in Anyang Kingdom.

"The last general is here." Two young generals left the line and bowed to one knee.

Dongfang Sheng was the eldest son of Cangwu Jun Dongfang Sheng. He was a person he knew as early as Chang'an. However, Dongfang Sheng was only a four or five-year-old child at that time. However, Dongfang Shuo, who passed down his family through poetry and books, did not teach his son to be a great scholar. Instead, because when he was in Hanoi County, Dongfang Sheng followed Li Ling to play swords and guns, and later grew up to be a general who charged on the battlefield.

As for Gao You, it was Gao Buzhi's eldest son who inherited the title of Yancheng Jun.

"I will help you two be the vanguard, each leading 5,000 elite cavalry. The first battle with the Anxi heavy armored cavalry will be handed over to you!" Huo Guang's majestic voice continued. Today, the day before the Anyang national troops officially left the two passes.

However, as time goes by, the original generals of Anyang Kingdom, such as Zhao Ponu, Fu Lu Zhi and others, have become old. Even Li Ling, the number one general under Huo Guang, is not as good as in previous years. These people are barely able to be the commander of the general, but they are a little helpless to charge for the vanguard.

Fortunately, Anyang Kingdom is not unsuccessful. Gaoyou Dongfangsheng and the other two are two young generals after Shangguan Jie and Li Ling. There are also some young generals. As long as they take time and after several wars, they may stand out from the world's famous future.

"The last general will receive the order." Gao You and Dongfang Sheng clasped their fists and responded.

"Dongfang Shuo" Huo Guang called Dongfang Shuo's name this time.

"I'm here." Dongfang Shuo is already over fifty years old, but he seems to be very good at health preservation. He still can't see his old age. In general, Huo Guang looks similar to Dongfang Shuo. Now the Dongfang family is also a first-class big family in Hexi. Not only are there a magnificent clan like Dongfang Shuo who is in charge of the first courtyard, but also a senior general like Dongfang Sheng. At the same time, some families also work in the army or in the yamen.

"You lead 50,000 infantry to set up defenses on the west bank of the river, and you will be in charge of Wuwei." Huo Guang's order was to ask Dongfang Shuo to lead the troops again. Huo Guang knew that Dongfang Shuo was good at defending, and then assigned him a defensive task. This task did not clearly explain anything, but everyone in the hall knew that Huo Guang asked Dongfang Shuo to sit in Wuwei, and the defense was not someone else, but the general of the army in the Han Dynasty led by Dongfang Shuo, Wang Yuanyou, and the 60,000 army stationed under Yangwuhou.

There are now 250,000 troops in Hexi, of which there are about 180,000 cavalry, and the remaining 70,000 are infantry. In other words, Huo Guang only left ten thousand people to defend each of the two passes, and then let Dongfangshuo set up 50,000 defenses in Wuwei County, and the rest almost went out to fight against the Anxi Empire.

"Du Yannian, you stay in Dunhuang and are responsible for the dispatch of food and grass in the army." Huo Guang continued to arrange the arrangement.

"I obey the order." Du Yannian also stood up to receive the order.

"The soldiers of the Northern Huns and Wusun are on the left and right wings, and I personally led a hundred thousand troops to the central army. In this battle, we will fight until Taixifeng, the capital of the Anxi Empire. Our Western ally, Sula, has begun the Eastern Expedition, and in the past six months, the troops of the Anxi Empire have been defeated step by step." Huo Guang stood up and said, he had received news from Sula a few days ago that Rome's huge eastern expedition had begun for a long time.

Under the leadership of this most outstanding commander in the West, he took the young Caesar as his vanguard and defeated the powerful Iron Armored Cavalry again and again with his heavy infantry formation. Now the supreme ruler of Rome is about to reach the capital of the Imperial Empire, Tessiefeng.

"According to the order..." Everyone in the hall stood up, including Wuya and Xutuomi.

One day later, a mighty cavalry team emerged from Yangguan, with the goal directed to Pu Changhai, the forefront of the Anxi Army. This time, Huo Guang used Dongfang Sheng and Gaoyou as the vanguard, allowing their cavalry to directly fight against the Anxi Iron Armored Cavalry. He was surrounded by Li Ling, Bai Zheng, Huo Tang and others. As for Zhao Ponu and others, they were left at the two passes to guard.

The left wing of the 100,000 Hexi Central Army was the 30,000 Wusun cavalry led by Xu Tuomi, and the right wing was the 50,000 Hun cavalry led by Gou Lian, the largest general under the Queen of the Northern Huns.

Because of Sura's eastern expedition, the war on the western front of the Anxi Empire began again. The 250,000 troops of Olobazo in the Western Regions were forced to withdraw another 100,000. Now the number of troops of Olobazo's eastern expedition is inferior to Huo Guang's army.

In the northeast of Puchang Sea, there is a landform composed of gypsum mud and saline. The salt crystals are sunny and form silver light, which looks like scales and armor. From a distance, it looks like white dragons swimming in the sea of ​​sand. Olobazo selected the battlefield on this silver-white land called the White Dragon Pile.

This is a battle destined to be engraved in history, and the battle lasted for three days and three nights on this silver-white land. Hanyang Steel, a new weapon, appeared on the battlefield for the first time. Its excellent materials and forging technology that advanced the times, brought the sharp and sturdy weapon characteristics to the extreme.

The cavalry of Anyang Kingdom confronted Anxi iron armored cavalry on the battlefield for the first time without falling behind. Without the decisive role of the iron armored cavalry, Anxi's archers and servants could not stop Huo Guang's army at all. Three days later, the silver-white white dragon pile had been dyed red with blood, and corpses and damaged weapons and armor were scattered everywhere. The combined force of the two sides invested more than 300,000, and the number of people damaged by both sides reached nearly 100,000. Whether it was the scale of participating in the war or the number of casualties, this battle has become a classic battle from ancient times to the present.

And this classic battle, his true classic is not the number and scale of the people. But because it is a truly frontal decisive battle, without much strategy, it is a head-on charge of the cavalry, and at the same time, it is a long-range suppression of the phalanx of bows and arrows, and a long-range volley of the crossbows. This is a head-on decisive battle that relies entirely on strength and war technology. Countless cavalry formations and varied small-scale tactics were all used vividly in this battle, with a large number of tactics being used, like textbooks, and has been circulated to later generations.

This was a battle that had been prepared for several years and consumed countless strategic materials. When Olobazo's tens of thousands of iron armored cavalry were annihilated and nearly 50,000 archers and servants were eliminated, he knew that the balance of the war had been inclined towards Huo Guang. The imperial prime minister, Olobazo, had no choice but to give up the Western Regions that had ruled for two years to Huo Guang again.

In this battle, most of the 10,000 elite troops equipped with Hanyang steel weapons and light armor were killed. At the same time, nearly half of the excellent weapons were still damaged. After all, no matter how exquisite the weapons and armor were, they still did not leave the scope of cold weapons, and high-intensity use still could not avoid damage.

In addition, Huo Guang's 180,000 cavalry were also killed in battle. Although more than 20,000 of them were cavalry of the Northern Huns and Wusun, this also made Huo Guang feel distressed for a long time.

Wars have always been cruel, and even if they are prepared well, they will inevitably pay a price. Hundreds of thousands of people buried their bones in the White Dragon Pile, making this place a famous terrifying place in later generations. Even adventurers over two thousand years later claimed that they would hear terrifying sounds of killing and wailing souls from ancient battlefields.

A few days after the Battle of Bailongdui, Huo Guang and his army began their journey to regain the Western Regions. This should be his second conquest, but this time it was a bit different from the way Bai Zheng conquered a few years ago. This time Huo Guang also issued another order, which was to destroy all the literary and literary texts of the Western Regions conquered along the way, and even began to forcibly implement the policy of changing the uniforms and Yi language.

The foreign cultures that were originally as bright as stars on the Western Regions were all barbaricly destroyed by Huo Guang, and all the characters and patterns engraved on the buildings were scraped off. Even the utensils with words were recast or directly destroyed. Within March, all the people of the Western Regions changed their original clothes and changed them to Han-style cross-collar clothes, and required that everyone could only use Chinese after a year.

This was a barbaric cultural destruction, but it completed a cultural invasion in a very short time. A large number of Huo clan disciples were sent to the Western Regions. While managing these places, they also barbaricly instilled the Han characters and languages ​​into the Western Regions.

This barbaric method naturally attracted the resistance of the indigenous peoples of the Western Regions. However, after the first attack by Baizheng, the Western Regions suffered enslavement of the Silence Empire for two years. The population here has dropped sharply, and many ordinary people have even begun to become numb. This situation has not made Huo Guang's cultural change untouched. Under the shock of the people, the numb people on this already anxious land have also begun to numbly accept different cultural indoctrination.

Just after the Battle of Bailongdui, Dongfang Shuo also brought 50,000 Hexi infantry to Wuwei County, and he was accompanied by Prince Huo'an, the prince of Anyang.

The west bank of the river has now been covered with camp tents, stretching for more than ten miles, as if a barrier blocking the river. On the east bank of the river, there are also more than ten miles of camp tents. It was the Yangwu Army under the command of the King Yuanyou, the general of the Dahan Army of the Army. Just the day after Dongfang Shuo and Huoan arrived at the west bank of the river, the Yangwu Marquis also arrived here from Chang'an. At this moment, he was sitting in the central army's tent with a big sword and a golden horse.

"General, the prince of Anyang Kingdom and the king of Cangwu, Dongfang Shuo appeared on the west bank of the river, as if observing our army's tent." An officer in Yangwu's army, who looked like a captain, walked into the central army's tent and knelt on one knee in front of Yangwu Hou to report.

This army was brought out by Wang Yuanyou. Not long ago, Emperor Liu Jin even gave this army a name to the Yangwu Army. Wang Yuanyou, the commander of this army, also liked to let his officers and soldiers call him general instead of the Marquis.

"That general should also go to see them!" Wang Yuanyou moved his body, and the armor on his body clattered. He just stood up casually, but it was as thick as a mountain bulging.

On the east bank of the river, Wang Yuanyou stood at the original ferry head surrounded by a large number of generals and officers. This is the narrowest place in this section of the river. The two sides are less than a hundred feet apart. The people on both sides can clearly see each other's every move.

"Mr. Dongfang, that is the banner of Yangwuhou. Is the person in silver armor led by the leader Yangwuhou?" Huo An stood beside Dongfang Shuo. He saw a huge handsome flag embroidered with the words Yangwu embroidered on it. The flag came out of the central army's tent and finally stopped on the ferry on the east bank. A general wearing silver armor in the crowd was particularly conspicuous.

"It's him... I haven't seen him for a few years, but he's becoming more and more famous." Dongfang Shuo stood on the ferry on the west bank. The river wind blew his hair and beards, making Dongfang Shuo look like a military general, but rather like a literati and elegant guest looking at the scenery in the river.

"The king ordered Mr. to station on the west bank of the river. If Yangwuhou crossed the river, I wonder what good advice would he have?" A little Hun girl in a white dress walked out behind Huo An. She raised her head curiously and asked Dongfang Shuo in front.

"Nianjun, Mr. Dongfang in this world should be the one who knows Yangwuhou best. I believe he has already had a solution." Huo An said with a natural smile on his face at the saint of the Huns beside him. In just a few days, the two seemed to be very familiar with each other.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince praised it. It was not actually a decision made by Yuanyou. And our place is not the real battlefield..." Dongfang Shuo's voice seemed a little messy in the wind, and his eyes were always on Wang Yuanyou.

"Not here? Where is that?" Huo An frowned slightly. He could hear from Dongfang Shuo's words that they confronted Wang Yuanyou on both sides of the river, which seemed to be just an illusion. The game behind this seemed to involve more people, even not only his father and the Emperor of Han...

On the east bank of the river, Wang Yuanyou also saw Dongfang Shuo and others. His eyes only stayed on Huo'an and Nian Jun for a while, and then kept looking at Dongfang Shuo. When Huo'an asked where Dongfang Shuo's real battlefield was, Wang Yuanyou bowed to Dongfang Shuo from afar through the river.

"In Yonghe Palace..." Dongfang Shuo said a few words lightly. When he saw Wang Yuanyou bowing, he also symbolically bowed to the opposite bank, his body straight but did not bow.
Chapter completed!
