Chapter 281: Never After

Volume 1, Chapter 281, Forever Troubled

Next chapter

When it comes to leading troops to fight, especially Zhao Hao, a person who has no experience in the military at all and does not have any combat experience in commanding the army, he feels unreliable to lead troops to fight.

To tell the truth, Zhao Hao's guy is actually still very envious of those, once he crossed over to the other world, he became the heir of the general's mansion and the little prince of the palace.

Suddenly, he changed from an otaku who didn't know anything before, or had no serious contact with the military at all, to a protagonist of a novel who can fight well and win all battles.

What an unnatural talent for adaptability and learning!

Anyway, no matter what others say, Zhao Hao here knows what kind of person he is, and his goal and future is not to lead the army.

He was not born to do this business, and although he had expectations in the day after tomorrow, he never practiced it.

Therefore, the task of leading the army to fight was naturally handed over to those professionals under him, such as Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian, as well as Dong Zhuo's old department, Xu Rong and others.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, the two generals, did not follow together to participate in the Northern Expedition this time.

Zhao Hao attacked the Xiongnu in the north this time, in fact, he only brought a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses, including 30,000 elite cavalry and 20,000 elite infantry.

The defenders and janissaries in Chang'an City, who originally belonged to Zhao Hao, have also handed over jurisdiction with the appointment of his Uncle Liu Huang, and Zhao Hao has no complaints about this, nor does he feel that there is anything wrong.

At this time, under his command, there were about 120,000 Xiliang troops, and the Northern Expedition brought 50,000, and the remaining 70,000 troops were all left in the military camp outside Chang'an City.

Zhang Gao and the others were in charge, and the military strategist Jia Yu assisted from the side, which can be described as foolproof.

In fact, according to Zhao Hao's meaning in his heart, this time he went north to crusade against the Huns, and the main force of the conquest was naturally not the soldiers and horses brought by his men.

You know, Zhao Hao's guy, yes, wanted to use those foreign barbarians to get some experience for himself.

The upgrade task of this mission world is very heavy.

And it's not just Zhao Hao himself who has the willingness to upgrade, but even the many brothers and sisters under him who have been newly promoted to unparalleled generals, one by one, are also enthusiastic and upgraded.

In front of him, within the land of the Hetao, a small total population will add up to five or six hundred thousand Huns, which is simply not enough for him to gnaw.

It can be said that the conquest and extermination of the Huns is actually just the beginning, and as far as Zhao Hao is concerned, to achieve his mission upgrade goal, such an enemy is far from enough.

As a staunch Han nationalist, Zhao Hao's idol since childhood was Bai Qi, Meng Yi, Han Xin, Wei Qing, Huo Quzhi, Yue Fei and other famous generals on the battlefield.

I also worship a great lyricist like Xin Qiji, who is both civil and military, and has a realistic style of romanticism.

In ancient times, all those who were in the military and famous generals on the battlefield had the highest military achievements and pursuits in their lives were nothing more than sealing the wolf and living in the army, and then expanding the territory and consolidating the country forever.

Strictly speaking, although Zhao Hao is not from this world, coincidentally, the task he is shouldering now seems to coincide with this goal.

Others are fighting for the righteousness of the country and the prosperity of the nation, but Zhao Hao is just for upgrading and gaining experience.

However, although there are differences in purpose, they are the same in terms of objective pursuit.

And although Zhao Hao is not the aboriginal of this world, if he has the ability, intention and motive, he will naturally not mind, stand in the position of the people of the big Han in this world, and fight with those foreign races.

You must know that during this period of the Three Kingdoms, in various interpretations and descriptions of novels, although it was an era of capable people and turbulent times, all kinds of famous generals, strategists, literati, wise men, and even beauties emerged in endlessly.

It is an epic, an unforgettable and magnificent chapter, and a romantic legend of the heroes competing for hegemony and competing for the Central Plains.

However, in the real and objective historical environment, the Three Kingdoms period was actually just a chaotic era in which many warlords and conspirators fought for power and profit for their own will.

The smoke is everywhere, and the people's lack of livelihood is its portrayal.

At the beginning of the late Han Dynasty, the total population of the people in the Han Dynasty was about 12 million, but by the end of the Three Kingdoms era and the beginning of the Jin Dynasty, the population of the world was only about 5 million.

It's a history of cannibalism, and if it's glorious, it's just a painful period of glory.

After the Three Kingdoms, the new centralization and the establishment of the Jin Dynasty did not bring real long-term peace and stability.

During the Three Kingdoms period, it seemed to be the extreme splendor of a firework, but after the splendor, what was left was death-like silence and weakness.

The excessive attrition of national strength and the attenuation of personnel and civilians made it impossible for the Jin Dynasty to have a strong military force and reserve resources like the Han Dynasty.

After a long period of recuperation and waiting for its prosperity, the Rebellion of the Eight Kings interrupted the land that should have been restored to its glory.

The Wuhu Chaohua made the Han nation enter the dark abyss of alien invasion for the first time.

When Zhao Hao was still in junior high school, the term Wuhu Chaohua appeared in his impression for the first time.

It is precisely because of Zhao Hao's admiration for many famous historical generals since he was a child that he is particularly familiar with this disastrous historical period for the Han nation.

However, in the mouth of his history teacher at that time, this dark turmoil that almost made the Han nation extinct became the so-called first national integration movement in the land of China.

When he first heard this point of view, Zhao Hao almost didn't spit, and sprayed it directly on his teacher's face.

Of course, after thinking about it after a while, Zhao Hao also knew that his thinking at that time was indeed a little extreme, after all, the times are different, and the perspective of looking at the problem has changed.

In the past, the Chinese regime, for most of the historical period, was actually dominated by the Han people's government, and even if it was sometimes ruled by foreign races, it was still the culture of the Han nation in terms of cultural direction.

However, today is different from the past, and the current reality of China is a country where all ethnic groups coexist in harmony, except for the Han nationality, which was once glorious in the world, other ethnic minorities are now their own compatriots.

From this point of view, it is actually difficult for the compilers of those history textbooks, and it is impossible to say that it is a great national integration movement.

Of course, different historical periods look at history from different angles.

It is also biased to judge people and events in a certain period of history that have long disappeared in the long river of time based on the viewpoint and mentality, world view and value orientation of modern people.

Today's Zhao Hao has such an opportunity to stand in the real historical trend and face and feel the weight of this era.

Although, strictly speaking, this is not the same thing, and even, it is not something that belongs in one world.

But this does not prevent Zhao Hao from using his own views and angles to do something for the world, and now he is leading his soldiers and horses to come, that is, for the Han nation in this world, never suffer in the future.
