Cao Chong walked up and glanced lightly at Xiao Qiao, who was beside Cao Cao, but his gaze was fixed on the bamboo slips on the table in front of Cao Cao.
Cao Chong's eyesight is good, even if there is a distance of one or two meters, the black characters on this bamboo slip are still clearly seen by Cao Chong.
This is the recital from the Western Regions.
Most of the families of the world moved westward, bringing with them a lot of domestic servants, a lot of gold, silver, money, and, most importantly, a lot of books.
These texts are, to some extent, more important than gold and silver treasures, because they are the condensation of the wisdom of their predecessors.
Among them are farming technology, textile technology, as well as culture, political system.
If these things spread to other countries, it would certainly not be good news for Wei.
Therefore, Cao Cao took a lot of people out to spy on these families, and the troops of the whole country, in addition to the ones hoarded in Tuntian, Yecheng, Xudu, a large number of soldiers on the side of Wancheng were transferred to Liangzhou.
Cao Cao's determination to recover the Western Regions was not insignificant.
These reinforcements are in Liangzhou, and those families dare not be even more bold.
However, although the family did not dare to spread those books, some of them were too powerful to make Cao Cao extremely worried.
The 36 countries of the Western Regions are: Wusun, Qiuzi, Yanqi, Ruoqiang, Loulan, Jimo, Xiaowan, Ronglu, Mi, Qule, Pishan, Xiye, Puli, Yinai, Shache, Shule, Yutou, Wensu, Yuli, Gumo, Beilu, Wuzhu, Beiluhouguo, Shanhuan, Pu, Puhouguo, Xijimi, Zaiguo, Huhu, Shanguo, Cheshi Qianguo, Cheshi Houguo, Cheshi Weidu State, Cheshi Houcheng State, these countries were all in the territory of Xinjiang Province in the later world.
In addition, there are more than a dozen Western Regions countries such as Dawan, Anxi, Dayueshi, Kangju, Kokand, Kanjuti, and Wuyi Shanli, which are outside the territory of the flower planters in later generations.
There are 36 countries in the Western Regions, and among these 36 countries, there are large and small countries.
Some large countries have tens of thousands of soldiers, while small countries have only a few hundred soldiers.
The countries of the Western Regions can be maintained, mainly because they are too far away from the center, take Xiaowan as an example, Xiaowan is on the side of Dunhuang County, not to mention Yecheng, that is, Chang'an, Xiaowan is also more than 7,000 miles away.
In later generations, although more than 7,000 miles is also a long distance, but there is a high-speed means of transportation, it is nothing, but in this era, can only walk on two legs and four legs, this distance represents that the authority of the central government is difficult to radiate, which is also one of the reasons why the countries of the Western Regions are under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty, but the Han Dynasty does not merge them into one.
Another reason, in addition to the distance, is poverty, and the road is extremely difficult to walk.
The Silk Road, those who dare to come, are all people who want to get rich overnight and don't want to die.
On this road, bandits are rampant, deserts, storms, and when they encounter one, they become a dry skeleton.
For example, Xiao Wan.
Hanshu Xiaowan Kingdom Biography: Wang Zhiwei Zero City.
Go to Chang'an for 7,210 miles.
One hundred and fifty households, one thousand and fifty mouths, and two hundred victorious soldiers.
Auxiliary marquis, one captain on the left and one on the right. 2,558 miles to the northwest to the capital protection office, east and Qiang, open up the south not road.
Xiaowan is in the south of the present and the end, the north bank of the Karamilan River, because its south is the Hoh Xili Mountain, so it is relatively remote.
The inhabitants are engaged in agricultural production and are of the ancient Cypriot race, belonging to the Indo-European Iranian language family.
In such a small country, if there are any special products, not to mention leaving Chang'an, it is more than 2,000 miles away from the capital guard, 7,000 miles away, just for this more than 1,000 people I'm afraid that the things I get from here will not even be enough for the travel expenses.
There are no specialties, no one will want these people, just like the Germans in later generations did not want to accept the black people, and the rice country built a high wall.
For example, the Dawan country has sweat and blood, but it is not a small country, but a big country, and there are probably fifty or sixty thousand soldiers, which is not an easy thing to conquer.
Of the 36 countries in the Western Regions, there are five large countries, namely Wusun, Qiuzi, Dawan, Anxi, and Dayueshi.
Today's report in Cao Cao's hand said that in five months, of the 36 countries in the Western Regions, I am afraid that only 15 countries in the Western Regions will remain.
In addition to the large countries such as the Guizi Wusun Dawan Rest in Peace Otsuki Clan, small countries like those with only a few hundred soldiers were directly annexed by the families that moved west.
From a certain point of view, the way of recovering the Western Regions this time is somewhat special.
This is not to make these nations subjugated, but to conquer them.
In order to gain a foothold in the Western Regions, these people exchanged gold, silver and jewelry for things that could be used in the Western Regions: grain, grass, swords, soldiers, and armor.
A well-equipped soldier is too simple to deal with the soldiers of those small countries.
In the beginning, the family acted together, and their goal was to attack the small country of Pu, which was closest to the original Western Regions Protectorate.
Pu country, Wang Zhi Tianshan West Shuyu Valley.
He went to Chang'an for 8,360 miles, with 325 households, 2,332 mouths, and 799 victorious soldiers.
There is one auxiliary candidate, one general on the left and right, and one lieutenant on the left and right.
Southwest to the capital of the protection of the office of 1,387 miles.
Pu is the easternmost country of the Zhuxing Kingdom in the north of the mountain, and the northeast is connected with the Xiongnu, and its geographical range is slightly lower than 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 family alliance In just three days, before the other countries in the Western Regions could react, the Pu Country became the land of the family.
All the original Pu nationals became slaves, and various families were stationed in the Pu country.

The families of the Han Dynasty, thanks to the continuous war of a hundred years, made these families themselves trained into man-eating tigers, if they were replaced by those scholarly families in the Tang Dynasty, placed in the current Western Regions, I am afraid it is not a man-eating tiger, but a food eaten by people.
Starting from the Pu country, the family coalition army almost wiped out all the small countries in Xinjiang except for the two countries of Qiuzi and Wusun.
Although these countries are small, they still have a combined population of nearly 200,000.
Some of the family were kept as servants, and the other part was directly used as slaves to serve the family in the Western Regions.
And the strength of the army, from the original more than 10,000 people, plus the servants, can be 40,000 or 50,000.
That's a staggering number.
No matter how poor the combat effectiveness of the servants is, forty or fifty thousand people is definitely not a small number.
This is also the reason why Cao Cao is quite annoyed.
These countries in the Western Regions were originally grass on the wall, and Cao Cao planned to use them to dissipate the power of the family, but now it seems that he has sent some good things to the family.
Cao Chong looked at the bamboo slip in Cao Cao's hand for a long time, but a smile flashed on his face.
Cao Cao was curious in his heart, and couldn't help but ask: "Why is the prince laughing, is this good news?"
Cao Chong saluted Cao Cao, but nodded.
"Father, how this is not good news" "The family is a big trouble for the henchmen of the Wei State, the family does not get rid of it, and the power of the Wei State is difficult to receive in the hands of its own king, and now the family is thriving in the Western Regions, and the soldiers in the hands are better than one day, and the henchmen are not only not removed, but the momentum is growing, I am afraid that you and I will have a headache in the future."
Cao Chong smiled lightly, shook his head, and said, "Father's words are bad, this news is good news for both Wei and Father. ” Cao Chong's words are somewhat interesting.
Cao Cao sighed and asked, "What does the prince mean?"
Cao Chong smiled lightly and said: "Erchen's meaning is very simple, the family is very prosperous, but Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and the small countries in the Western Regions can't help the family, but like those big countries in the Western Regions, they will watch the family occupy the territory of these small countries, and it is easy for the family to deal with small countries, but to deal with big countries, just by relying on the servants in their hands, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult." ” The Western Regions were able to remain divided rather than as a whole, and in addition to cultural inconsistencies, it was more due to the fact that they had already maintained a strange state of stability.
It's like two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom make up a water molecule.
The emergence of the family now is tantamount to turning this stable Western Regions into a pot of hot red oil.
It is not easy for these families to survive in boiling oil.
"Besides, no matter what, the family is also a member of our Wei State, and their appearance can be regarded as making these people from the Western Regions recall the coercion of our Han people against them back then, and when the time comes, it will definitely be easier for us to subdue those big countries in the Western Regions."
Cao Chong's words did make sense, Cao Cao thought about it and put his heart down.
"I wanted to teach you, I didn't want you to teach me, it seems that there is nothing to teach you about governing the country."
Cao Chong shook his head and said: "Erchen is a little anxious, my father wants to teach my son, but there are many more, for example, there is a tricky matter now, and Erchen doesn't know how to deal with it."
Tricky stuff Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and finally found some comfort for himself.
"If you say it, if you understand, your father will teach you
