The Retirement of the Demon Lord: Chapter 104 Prince Wusun

On a boundless grassland that seems to be connected to the sky, because of the arrival of autumn, the grass is dyed golden yellow by the autumn wind, and a golden coat is put on this boundless prairie. On the grassland, there are flocks of sheep and horses grazing everywhere, and under the undulating hills in the distance is a quiet ancient city.

This ancient city is quiet and peaceful. As a strategic core area to resist Mongolia in the east, it is also a major economic and trade city in the north of the Western Regions. It is the capital of the Wusun Kingdom, the Octagon City.

Inside the city, in a beautiful palace in the shape of a huge yurt, in the hall, a man with a full beard sat on a tiger-skin seat on a high platform.

The following group of people reported their political affairs one after another, waiting for the man to review it. The man reviewed the political affairs of each person at a very fast speed, and they were all resolved in no time. Just as he was about to notify Sanchao, he suddenly broke into a man dressed as a guard.

"See your lord! Queen Loulan has sent an urgent letter!" The guard knelt under the high platform and shouted loudly.

"Bring it up." The man looked solemn, but there was an imperceptible glimmer of triumph in his eyes.

"My lord, the emissary said that it can only be handed over to Kun Mi..."

"Xiao Kunmi died in the Central Plains, and Da Kunmi didn't return for many days, and when Da Kunmi was leaving, when he announced his absence in front of several ministers, I was in full command of Wusun's affairs. Seeing me is like seeing. Kunmi himself. Since it's an expedited letter, the situation is bound to be urgent, and it's not a big deal to wait for Da Kunmi to come back!"

The man on the high seat is the younger brother of Kun Mi Mi Xuzhang of the Wusun State, and his name is Mi Kou Lu. He was two years younger than Kunmi. The Wusun Kingdom was originally a branch of the Xiongnu. According to their customs, whoever succeeded in the succession of the throne had a great chance. However, after the Wusun Kingdom broke with the Xiongnu and became the Thirty-six Kingdoms in the Western Regions, it became very close to the Central Plains. Influenced by the cultural customs of the Central Plains, it also began to pay attention to the order of the young and old, and the position of the prince was given to Mi Xushang early.

Mi Kou Lu originally wanted to fight for the throne, but don't look at Mi Xushang's appearance as a poor uncle with a big belly now. When he was young, he wrestled, equestrian, swordsmanship, and even his literary and military skills were slightly better than Mi Kou Lu. Therefore, the ministers of Wusun and the previous king did not intend to change the prince's son, so Mi Xushang took over as the king so logically, and Mi Koulu had no chance, and it was logical to become a prince. Because there is only such a prince, there is no other title given, anyway, apart from the big and small Kunmi Quanwusun, he is the biggest.

He is quite comfortable as a prince, and has conferred a fief, but Kun Mi did not restrict him to move in the fief, and he also ate and lived with him in the Octagon Palace, and he was quite tolerant and loving to him. This Mi Kou Lu was usually peaceful and peaceful, and he had a good time with Mi Xu, which completely subverted the impression that the brothers in the emperor's family were fighting against each other for power.

Therefore, when Kun Mi personally went to Dunhuang to ask about the robbery and murder of his prince, he entrusted all the small and large chores of Wusun to his younger brother, and the whole Wusun didn't think there was any problem.

The guard thought about it and felt that it was indeed the case, and quickly handed over the letter.

"Do you have anything else to report?" Mi Koulu took the letter and did not immediately open it to look at it, but carefully put it away.

No one has any objection to him doing this. Since it is a secret letter sent by Queen Loulan, it is normal not to see it in public.

"Yes." A burly man wearing a Western-style light cloth armor bowed to the high platform, "A few days ago, the lord felt that the frontier generals were getting older, and he blessed him to return to his hometown..."

"Well, General Tiemu has an opinion on this?" Mi Koulu raised his eyebrows, looking a little unhappy.

"No, the lord misunderstood. It is a blessing for the lord to be sympathetic to the rough people like me! But the border can't be without generals for a day, and according to the report of the spy, the Mongolian army outside the border has been about to move recently, and the border defense has no generals. Taboo."

"I understand General Tiemu's concerns." Mi Koulu understood that the minister was not dissatisfied with him, and his eyes widened, "The border general is disarmed and returned, isn't there a lieutenant to take over temporarily. In the Grand Hall of Sun, Kun Mi is not there, and there is still me on the top. It is not the same, and each of them operates normally. But what you said is reasonable. One of the generals still needs to be filled quickly. What should General Tiemu think about it?"

Mi Koulu smiled and thought to himself, General Guan is in urgent need of a replacement over there, and does the Wusun Hall here also urgently need a replacement for Kun Mi.

"You should immediately arrange a new general for the frontier fortress, and inform Queen Loulan of the changes in the Mongolian army and Kunmi's absence from Wusun for several days, so that Queen Loulan can be prepared."

"General, who is the candidate?"

"General of the Saimi tribe, General Huo, who is the temporary general of the border, and General Pragyao, the son of the general, are all competent!"

"Well, look at our big Wusun, there are so many talents! This king understands, and this king will choose the border generals in the past two days and arrange to go."

"Your Highness is wise!"

No power center is free from flattery, even in a place like Wusun, where the folk customs are rude. After Meikolu made a decision, there was a sound of flattery in the hall.

Without further discussion, Meikolu scattered the ministers in the hall and walked back to his own palace. His bedroom was about the same size as Mixushang, and he had everything.

He walked to a study room, where several people were already waiting.

"What, is it fun to be King Wusun?" The people inside saw Meikolu walking in, but they said casually without the slightest respect.

"It's not fun, I'm exhausted, there's a lot of mess. You'll know when you become the Mongolian Khan." Mikoulu didn't blame the other party for his rudeness, but went forward respectfully and filled a pot for one of them. hot tea.

These people were the Mongolian prince Kudu Jiba and his guards who had just left the country of Loulan for a few days.

Mongolian men are worthy of being born on horseback. They rode their horses at will, and they reached Wusun faster than the expedited messenger sent by Queen Loulan.

"Hahaha...Then it's still too late if you don't play now, you can still be your prince comfortably." Kudu Jiba laughed loudly.

He was the one who begged him to help seize the throne, and he was the one who thought the throne was too easy now. This man was really cheap and good-natured. Kudu Jiba looked down at the teapot, but a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"I also wanted to be a prince comfortably and enjoy the glory and wealth. But what is Wusun country managed by the emperor's brother..." Mi Kou Lu poured himself a glass of wine, and his eyes were full of haze. With 180,000 soldiers, he bowed his head to the Queen of Loulan. We have fought with your country for years, but they have enjoyed the success behind their backs. He can bear it and I can't bear it! It is better to join forces with your country to attack the Western Regions and seize the Central Plains, and achieve a success. Fan hegemony! With such an ambitious plan, what does it mean that this king is tired."

"That's right. Mexusuan is a coward who only knows how to obey at the feet of women. UU reading www.uukanshu.com" Kudu Jiba pushed away the tea, took out the sheepskin wine bag around his waist, and clinking glasses with Meikolu .

Kudu Jiba liked this Mikoulu very much. Without Mikoulu, an ambitious and self-confident fool, how did their Mongolian Empire achieve such a hegemony? This fool really does not have the Queen of Loulan to unite the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions and become the backing of the Wusun. Can the Wusun country be able to hold the Turks and Mongolia from both sides? When the door of Wusun Kingdom is opened, the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions will be the possession of the Huns army. The so-called "union" is just a joke. At that time, the Wusun Kingdom will have no backers. The Huns can handle the Wusun however they want, but they still need to divide the world with them?

Fool, Lianyi said, at least the two sides have to have a certain amount of bargaining chips to be on an equal footing. When the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions are broken, you are a garbage without any bargaining chips, and you can be a mermaid. This is why Mi Xushang has always insisted on an alliance with Queen Loulan. Only this kind of alliance that is useful to each other can be maintained.

Kudu Jiba was in a good mood, and he had already begun to outline a beautiful blueprint for the future of the Xiongnu in his heart.

However, Mi Kou Lu was not in a good mood like Jiba's.

"Why, everything is going well, what do you think is wrong?" Kudu Jiba asked suspiciously.
