I’m The King Chapter 1303: : Carry on the past and usher in the future (one hundred and ninety-three) The king on the new land
A black palace stands in the very center of Shule City, even higher than the distant city wall. Its architectural style is completely different from other houses in the city. Shule City.
Wang Jian stood at the highest point of the palace, looking down at the city below him, all of this is now his. Not only Shule, but with Shule as the center, the area with a radius of thousands of miles is now under his control. A few years ago, he was forced into the desert by the Han army. Tens of thousands of troops struggled all the way in the desert, and finally There were no more than ten thousand people who set foot on this land, and what greeted them was not flowers and fine wine, but the attacks of coalition forces composed of countless foreign races. Their sacrifices and sacrifices have established their status as kings on this land, and the city-states that line this land have to admit their existence, but that is only the poorest area on the edge of the desert.
A year of respite allowed Wang Jian to regain his vitality. Using this year, he vigorously purged other races in this area and brought them into his rule Next, a powerful army appeared, and it took another year for him to march on a large scale, defeating other surrounding city-states, and gradually expanding his rule to the current area.
At the beginning, there were only five or six thousand people left in the Qin army who crossed the desert with him, but now they are Wang Jian's powerful arm controlling this area.
This area originally practiced a more backward slavery system. In Qin State, slavery is nothing new. Many of those who commit crimes will be demoted to slavery, but like here, except for nobles. It was the situation of slaves, which surprised Wang Jian, but he had no intention of changing this situation. For him, this situation was more conducive to his rule.
Those peasants, artisans, and army composed of slaves who have slave status are too tame, as long as they kill their masters, they claim to have rights to them. These slaves will bow their heads at your feet, and if you treat them a little better, they will be grateful to you.
The remaining 5,000 Qin troops are now slave owners in this vast area. Even those wounded and mutilated soldiers will own a piece of land and have slaves of varying numbers. They are kings. Shearing is the most effective tool for controlling this area.
The current Wang Jian. It can gather tens of thousands of fully armed soldiers in a very short period of time. In addition to the 30,000 standing army under their own control, those new slave owners can prepare their own weapons in wartime. War horses, leading their slave soldiers, appeared under their command.
For this area, Wang Jian is their heaven. The previous rulers all turned into dead people under his steel knife. The remnants also fled far away, as if they were no longer a threat to Wang Jian, but Wang Jian didn't feel at ease at all, because he knew very well that behind him, there was a sharper knife, which could be used every now and then. Always threatening his safety.
This knife is the Han Kingdom on the other side of the desert.
If I can cross the desert, so can they. Compared with the dead end at that time, if the Han Kingdom wants to come, it must be ready for everything. Wang Jian, who has fought against the Han Kingdom for many years, knows very well that the Han Kingdom is strong It seems that the only thing he can rely on is the vast desert, but will the desert really become an obstacle for the opponent?
Driven by this kind of psychology, Wang Jian placed all the most important generals and the most powerful forces under his command on the edge of the desert. Among his 30,000 standing troops, 20,000 of them were gathered on the border. The purpose of Ya and Yining is to resist the Han army that may rush over from there at any time.
Another year has passed, and my control of this area has been very stable. The arrival of the Qin people brought advanced farming technology. Farmers, now, they have become slave owners and own a large piece of fertile land, so they will naturally concentrate on this land. Advanced farming technology and hard-working slaves have created a lot of wealth.
But the trouble finally came this year, beyond Wang Jian's expectation, the trouble did not come from the Han Kingdom in the south, but from the north, swarms of locusts dressed in black and riding war horses Or camels, enemies wielding scimitars pounced on their own territory. There were not many people at the beginning, and they were easily wiped out, but after eliminating these people, it was like stabbing a hornet's nest. The North began to gather and launched an attack on its own territory.
Three months ago, I assembled 20,000 troops and fought against them in Kangju City. Although I won that battle, he was still shocked by the brutality of the war. These black knights are like madmen Usually, wave after wave rush towards their own battlefield, even if their corpses are piled up into walls of corpses before their own arrow array, these people use their lives to rush into their own array, and then there is a tragic death. Hand-to-hand combat, after the first battle, the tens of thousands of men in black who invaded were all wiped out outside Kangju City, but their own losses also reached tens of thousands.
Although he won the final victory, this battle also hurt Wang Jian's vitality, and what worried him even more was the details of these enemies.
From the captives he captured, he knew that these black knights came from a country called Dashi, and their supreme leader was called the Caliphate, and they were just after they failed to compete for the supreme leader in the Dashi country. A group of evicted people, who had no home to return to, could only go all the way to the south, and accidentally discovered this fertile territory. They originally wanted to occupy this land as their new territory, but they didn't want Wang Jian to compare They came one step earlier.
The information he received shocked Wang Jian. When he was in Daqin before, he never imagined that the world is so big and there are so many forces beyond their imagination. This group of black-clad knights that made him troublesome was just a group of bereaved dogs, and he had already found it difficult to deal with it. If the victors that those captives talked about, that caliph came with a large army, what would he use to resist?
As an equally ambitious general, Wang Jian naturally knows that a wider territory is the endless pursuit of every superior, and no king will be satisfied with the current achievements. If they didn't know about their own territory before, then these men in black who fled back will definitely bring back this information, and maybe soon, more black knights will follow.
The craziness of these people's battles made Wang Jian, who had experienced many battles, feel a little trembling. Even if there was only one person left, this person would frantically wave his machete and howl loudly in a language they could not understand. Attack them to the death.
This is a bunch of lunatics.
In the days that followed, Wang Jian sent countless spies to the north, and the news they brought back shocked Wang Jian even more. It was a country where politics and religion were integrated, and its strength was not inferior to that of Great Qin in its heyday. Wang Jian is no stranger to the unity of politics and religion. When Li Ru was in power, the state of Qin strictly prohibited religion from interfering with the royal power. Like people, this is Wang Jian's cognition.
With my current ability, it is absolutely impossible to resist the massive attack of this big food. If I want to keep my current fruit, the only possibility is to seek foreign aid.
But I have no foreign aid to look for.
It was at this time that Lu Chao's envoy finally found him. From this envoy's mouth, Wang Jian knew the current situation in the Central Plains. Great Qin, the motherland of the country, is getting weaker and weaker, and is about to fall into the brink of civil war.
Lai Shi did not conceal what Lu Chao was thinking and what Lu Chao wanted to do.
Although three years is not a long time, it seems like a century to Wang Jian, so long that he almost forgot the appearance of his homeland. Struggling to survive and live better on this land, the memory of the past has long been blurred.
Back to Qin? This idea has long been gone. If I can hold on to this territory, I will have a better life here. Daqin, what else can I give myself? Or, what did they give themselves?
However, the arrival of this envoy made Wang Jian grab a life-saving straw at some point. If Lu Chao succeeds, if in his hands, a powerful Qin country can be revived, Then ~IndoMTL.com~ or he can become a powerful foreign aid for me, and at that time, I can use their strength to keep my current territory.
He did not reject the special envoy, but instead gave him a warm reception and a full promise, but he still hadn't made up his mind about what to do until now. When the time comes to support Lu Chao, even if it is just to contain the Han army, it will also provoke the giant Han, is it really worth it?
The powerful neighbor to the north has just won the highest position in the country. It will take two or three years to sort out the internal affairs and fully grasp the power, and I only have two or three years to breathe. But with my current strength, no matter how carefully prepared I am, it is impossible to withstand the surging black cavalry.
Wang Jian sighed, stood up, and closed the window.
In the empty hall behind him, hurried footsteps sounded.
"Great General, General Niyahuang sent a message on a flying horse. They captured the envoy from the Han Kingdom." A personal guard rushed over and replied loudly.
Wang Jian suddenly turned around. Dahan Kingdom, Gao Yuan, you finally know my existence, have you finally come? (to be continued...)
