Soon, the emperor wanted to send troops to fight against the Xiongnu again, as soon as the news came out, the Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar, and the ministers were worried and hurried, and they advised Liu Chedao to turn the war into a good policy. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The emperor did not allow it, and said with a straight face: "Those who offend my Han will be punished even if they are far away!" ”

In the second year of Yuanzhen, Liu Che appointed Huo Quai, who was 19 years old at the time, as a hussar general, and sent troops to conquer the Xiongnu again.

Huo Qubing lived up to expectations, and led his troops to attack the Hun Hun Evil King and Hutu King who occupied the Hexi region twice in spring and summer, and annihilated more than 40,000 enemies. Captured 5 Xiongnu kings and more than 120 people, including the queen mother, Shan Yu's clan, princes, Xiangguo, and generals.

In the autumn of the same year, Huo Qubing was ordered to greet the Hun evil king who led the people to surrender to Han, and at the critical juncture of some of the chaos, he led his troops to gallop into the Xiongnu army, killed the rebels, stabilized the chaos, and enabled the Hun evil king to lead more than 40,000 people to return to Han smoothly.

Since then, the Han Dynasty has taken control of the vast Hexi region, laying the foundation for opening up the roads to the Western Regions. The Huns lamented for this: "Losing my Qilian Mountain will make my six animals rest; The loss of my self and the mountains have made my wife colorless. ”

In the fourth year of Yuanzhen, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ordered Wei Qing and Huo Qubing (then 22 years old) to lead 50,000 cavalry each, and sent troops to Dingxiang and Daijun respectively, and went deep into Mobei to find and annihilate the main force of the Huns.

Huo Qubing led the army north for more than 2,000 miles, crossed Lihou Mountain, crossed the Gonglu River, engaged in battle with the Xiongnu Zuoxian Wang, annihilated 70,400 enemies, captured 3 people including the Xiongnu Tuntou King and Han Wang, and 83 people, including generals, Xiangguo, Danghu, and Duwei, and pursued them to Wolf Juxu Mountain, and the soldiers were forced to Hanhai. After this battle, the Xiongnu were swept away by the Han army in the south of the desert, and the Xiongnu fled to the north of the desert, and since then, the Xiongnu have fled far away, and there is no royal court in the south of the desert.

After these battles, Huo Qubing became a young general with high prestige in the army, and he was in the limelight for a while. His prestige in the army has even faintly surpassed that of his uncle, the general Wei Qing, and he is deeply loved by a group of middle-aged and young generals.

In the same year, Liu Che set up the position of Great Sima, and the general Wei Qing and the hussar general Huo Qubing were all added to the position of Great Sima. At the same time, it was ordered that the hussar general Zhilu (i.e., 鿸禄) was the same as the great general. Because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed the position of Taiwei in the second year of Jianyuan, and set up the position of Da Sima, it was to replace the position of Tai Lieutenant, Huo Qubing and Wei Qing were able to manage daily military administrative affairs justifiably because of the title of Da Sima. Since then, Huo Quai, together with his uncle Wei Qing, has become the supreme governor of military administrative affairs in the Han Dynasty.

"Your Majesty...... I'm afraid that's not right! "On Huo Quai's resolute face, at this time, it is full of expectation.

"Uh-huh! What's wrong? This is my will, don't you want to resist and disobey it? Liu Che snorted softly.

"This ...... How dare Wechen? It's just that my uncle is afraid that he won't be able to figure it out for a while, after all, he has been working in the army for so many years, and he suddenly let him retire and no longer take care of things, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for a person to accept it for a while! Huo Quzhi muttered quietly, Yinglang's sword eyebrows frowned deeply, and he was about to tie a knot.

"Heh, you also said that your uncle has been working in the army for many years, and now, I let him unload his burden and enjoy the blessings, what's wrong? Wei Qing has worked hard for me for most of his life, and now he is not young, and he is asked to continue to fight on the battlefield, and he lives a precarious life and licks blood from the knife for me and the big man, I really can't bear it! If not, take advantage of the present to let him gradually retire from the army, and arrange one or two idle jobs with him, so that he can enjoy wealth and spend his old age in peace. Go to the sick, do you say it's the reason? Liu Che explained to Huo Quzhi in a good-natured manner, looking like a good boss who 'why don't you understand, child, I'm thinking about your uncle'.

"Well, of course it's good to be able to enjoy your old age in peace. As a monarch, Your Majesty can be so considerate of his subordinates and think about his subordinates, and he is indeed a benevolent and righteous king. Can...... Chen's uncle Wei Qing is only in his forties now, and now he will retire to his idle job and go home to retire, will it be earlier? Huo Quai's illness still persuaded without giving up.

"Hmph, yes, I forgot, my general is in the prime of life! No wonder, the energy is too much! Liu Che's face sank when he heard this, and he snorted coldly: "He is not old, he has energy." That's why there is nothing to do, and there are some little tricks in the army to form gangs and eliminate dissidents."

"Your Majesty......" Huo Quzhi's face changed greatly, but he didn't know how to explain for a while, because he knew better than anyone else whether Liu Che's words were true or false, and his uncle, Wei Qing, the great hero he had always regarded as an example, had indeed been loyal to one thing in the army over the years, that is, to form gangs and eliminate dissidents. As far as he knows, Li Dang of Li Jiajun had a lot of discord with his uncle in his early years, because he had been deliberately suppressed and isolated by his uncle Wei Qing over the years, and it was difficult to make an inch of success over the years, and he was depressed and unwilling.

"Go to the sick, you are a good boy who is sincere, I don't embarrass you, what your good uncle did, I think you have heard about it, why do you have to defend him?" Liu Che smiled faintly, waved his hand, and said: "That's it, I have been a monarch for decades, and he wants to just gang up in the army and eliminate dissidents, and I should turn a blind eye." Hmph, but, your good uncle has a growing appetite now! He has to grasp the affairs in the army, and he has to stop the affairs in the court in his arms. Hehe, what does he want to do? When you get sick, tell me, what do you want to do as a good uncle? ”

"This ...... Your Majesty, forgive the ministers for being ignorant, the ministers don't know ......" Huo Quai's face was astringent. How could he not know his uncle's thoughts? Isn't it just that he wants to get the crown prince for the twenty-eight princes born by his aunt in the palace, Liu Ju? This matter has long been no secret, I know it, and the ministers and princes of the government and the opposition know it, I'm afraid, I already know it today, right?! However, if you know this kind of thing, you will know it, so how can you declare it to your mouth? If you're not careful, your uncle will be charged with peeping into the position of the prince.

"Hmph, if you get sick, you don't have to cover it up for him! I know exactly what was going on in his mind! Yes, I'm not afraid to let my heart fly and tell you that I've tolerated him to the limit now! In order to prevent him from doing anything beyond the limits of my tolerance, and when the time comes, I will have to deal with him helplessly, and I should first remove his military and political power. In this way, not only will I be able to fulfill the relationship between me and Zhongqing, but also make him enjoy his wealth and prosperity, so that he will not be like the lord and his father, right? Liu Che snorted slowly.

Master Father?!

Thinking about back then, the master father Yan was so favored by the Holy Lord, but his ending was really not good, not only did he die and no one buried him, but he was also so tired that the whole group was ambushed and punished by Jinshang...... (To be continued.) )
