Chapter 10 Light Ride
Seeing the drastic change in the emperor's expression, Huo Quzhi was a little worried, after all, he was a child who grew up in the Hou Mansion, and he was used to it since he was a child, although he didn't dare to bully the king, but he could avoid the important and take it lightly, only saying that it was a stranger from the mansion, not that it was a teacher that his mother found for him. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Liu Che asked who wrote the silk book again, and after getting the same answer, he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing so forgetful, the inner servants heard the sound and came, turning their heads and ears, I don't know why the emperor was laughing, Huo Quzhi knelt awkwardly, such as on the needle felt, although he was a relative, but Long Yan was moody, who knows if he will turn his face in the next second.
The mother will definitely not harm herself, and the teacher will not deliberately anger the Son of Heaven, the emperor is really smiling because he is happy, and the silk book plus the jade pendant must convey a huge good news, Huo Quzhi After a quick analysis, his heart was settled.
He guessed right, Liu Che was really ecstatic, there are many explanations left by Emperor Gaozu in the royal secret file, one of which is about the immortals, Liu Bang in the battle with Xiang Yu, can be described as repeatedly defeated, once lost his armor and fled alone, if it were not for the rescue of the immortals, he would have become a ghost under the Chu saber, this world is naturally Xiang Yu's, in order to repay the gods for saving their lives, Liu Bang gave mutton fat white jade, and the gods engraved the word Kunwu on the white jade after laughing, After a few years of meeting with Gaozu, the descendants met with jade pendants in exchange for rewards.
He was happy that the gods reappeared, and offered the jade pendant and the silk book together, the meaning was already very clear, with the help of the gods, the chances of winning the Northern Expedition against the Huns were only between five and five, and now they are ten percent sure.
"Go to the sick, where is this person, I want to summon him, by the way, let Dongfang Shuo come too." Liu Che was still thoughtful in addition to being full of interest, and asked Dongfang Shuo to distinguish the authenticity of the immortals, and there were many warlocks in the rivers and lakes these years.
"Yes!" The young Huo Qu was overjoyed, ran out like a fly, and galloped out of Weiyang Palace.
But the teacher was nowhere to be found, not in the house, and did not leave any address, and searched all over the north of Weiyang Palace and did not see anyone, the young man woke up, and saw that the teacher's outfit was a person in the market, and he should go to the market to find it, so he rode a horse to the market and walked around, and sure enough, he found the teacher who was playing monkey in the crowd.
Huo Quzhi felt that his face was hot, the teacher actually performed in front of the public, wouldn't it be a shame to spread the word, he endured his temper, the blood vessels on his temples jumped and jumped, turned the horse's head and left, Liu Yan directly separated the onlookers on the third floor and the outer three floors had already seen his son's embarrassed and angry expression, disapproving, and continued to knock on the small gong in his hand, the monkey performed the acrobatics of somersaults hard, and the copper coins around him were sprinkled like raindrops, and they applauded, but Huo Quzhi sounded like a needle prick.
The young man first went back to Weiyang Palace to reply to the decree, only saying that the person did not say goodbye, and could not be found again, the emperor was not thundered and angry, the real immortals, they all have personalities, and they are not courtiers like Dongfang Shuo, he pondered for a while, and made a will, Feng Huo Quai, as the captain of Bi Yao, and accompanied Wei Qing to the Huns.
This expedition against the Xiongnu has already been decided, the army and horses have long been ready, just waiting for the auspicious day to go out, originally did not plan to let Huo Quai, such a seventeen-year-old child participate in the war, but the emperor temporarily changed his mind, not only let him accompany the army to fight in Monan, but also named him a lieutenant only lower than the general.
Huo Qubing was pleasantly surprised, and thanked him repeatedly, but the emperor was light-hearted, and handed over the jade pendant on the case to his nephew.
"You wear this." The Emperor said, "I don't need it. ”
Confused, Huo Qu returned to the Chen Mansion and told his mother what happened today, although Wei Shao'er was worried, but thinking about his younger brother Wei Qing being the leading coach, no matter how bitter he was, he couldn't suffer his nephew, and the Wei family was from a humble background, and he needed military merits to lay a solid foundation, besides, there was a fairy father who was covered.
"Son, listen to your uncle this time, just be a grain overseer." Wei Shao'er didn't know how to march and fight, and only knew that the position of grain supervisor was the safest.
"If I want to do it, I will be a general." Huo Quzhi said proudly, he had no father since he was a child, he grew up in a pile of fat powder, spoiled lawlessness, and the bow horse was barely skilled, but compared to the Huns who grew up on horseback, it was still not enough, this ambition caused his mother to be deeply worried, but the emperor Chrysostom said that everything could not be changed.
"That teacher is a liar." Huo Quzhi said indignantly, "My son saw him performing in the market. ”
Wei Shao'er smiled gently, she didn't care, she should let that guy taste the taste of being despised by his son, who let him leave this girl.
……
A few days later, Huo Qubing took 200 light horsemen and set off from Chang'an to Dingxiang, Hedong, where his uncle, the emperor's brother-in-law, the general Wei Qing, led an army of 100,000 troops to camp in Dingxiang, waiting for the holy decree of the expedition.
Huo Qubing stopped on the hillside, looking at the camp of the Dingxiang Han Army, stretching for ten miles, waving the flag, the cold wind in February was like a knife, and the young man under the mink fur was hot-blooded, holding the handsome seal, sweeping the Huns, and the pride and ambition were about to become a reality.
But after entering the camp, reality gave him a cruel blow, life in the army is too hard, even the general can only live in a tent, wrapped in a quilt in the cold night is still shivering, the general Wei Qing took good care of this nephew who came to gild, and arranged for him to be served by twenty personal soldiers, no need to raise the account in the morning, no need to practice, even eat is a small stove.
But Huo Quzhi is a stubborn teenager, he doesn't want to be seen as a chick hiding under his uncle's wings, he takes a group of personal soldiers to shoot and hunt every day, and practices his skills to kill the enemy, but those veterans still just shake their heads and sneer when they see it.
Wei Qing is only thirty years old this year, but he is already a battle-hardened veteran, the general's military position is not based on the relationship between the emperor's brother-in-law, but a knife and a shot out, as the son of a slave, and a lowly illegitimate child, since childhood, the living environment is extremely bad, and he is treated as a beast, at the age of fifteen, because his sister Wei Zifu was favored by the emperor, overnight from a slave who raised horses to the emperor's close servants, and others have long been carried away and caused the disaster of killing, but Wei Qing did not get carried away, He still maintained a low-key and cautious style, so he was more trusted by the emperor, coupled with his outstanding military achievements, it was reasonable for him to become the highest military commander of the Han Dynasty at a young age.
Nephew Huo Qubing is also the son of a slave, and he is also a child born of fornication, but he is different from Wei Qing, he got out of the sea of suffering by virtue of the queen's relationship when he was a child, and he grew up with brocade clothes and jade food, and he couldn't bear hardship at all.
After a few days, the army set out as scheduled, before the start of Wei Qing ordered Huo Qubing to stay in the rear to supervise the transportation of grain and grass, although Huo Qubing was unwilling, but the military order was like a mountain, and had to follow.
100,000 Han troops went out on an expedition, the camp was empty, only 3,000 old and weak were left behind, Huo Qu was sick and dressed in Xuan armor, sulking in the tent, suddenly the door curtain was raised, and someone was uninvited.
"Bold!" Huo Qu shouted angrily, and looked at it, but it was the "teacher" who came, still wearing the armor of the Han army, and looked like an old pawn.
Liu Yanzhi came to the Dingxiang camp early on, secretly observed the movements of the Han army, the Western Han army during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very strong, first of all, the generation difference in weapons, the Han army was generally equipped with a ring head knife made of steel, the same steel forged arrowhead was much sharper than the bone axe used by the Huns, and the war horses were relatively sufficient, the only deficiency was the quality of the soldiers, after all, the children of the Central Plains peasant family were not as good as the people on horseback, but the quantitative advantage could offset the quality gap.
Unexpectedly, Wei Qing acted conservatively and did not dare to let his nephew risk himself, so Liu Yanzhi had to go out in person to encourage his son to violate military discipline.
"You liar!" Huo Quzhi was angry and had nowhere to vent, so he drew his sword in his hand and split it according to his head.
Liu Yanzhi flicked his hand, the sword came out of his hand, Huo Quzhi was about to call the guards with the cracked tiger's mouth, but he saw the "teacher" pointing to a corner of the sand table in the center of the camp tent and said: "The Hun royal court is here, if you set off tonight, it will take about seven days to arrive here, and you will serve them before Wei Qing." ”
Huo Quzhi involuntarily walked to the sand table, he is not a military blind who knows nothing, although he has not been on the battlefield, but he has also heard a lot of allusions, the teacher said that the long-distance run is not impossible, but the implementation process will encounter all kinds of unexpected difficulties, such as strong wind and sand, such as lack of water, lost, without a suitable guide, alone in the desert is equivalent to looking for death.
As if guessing what he was thinking, Liu Yanzhi disrupted the sand table with his hand and rearranged it: "This map is too inaccurate, there are oases here that have not been marked, here is the quicksand area, and here, the water and plants are fertile...... " The sand table he reshaped was more complex and precise, and every spring and oasis was marked, and even the route of the raid was delineated.
Huo Qu became excited, and he didn't know why, he believed everything the teacher said, although a moment ago he wanted to draw his sword and behead this person.
"But I don't have a talisman in my hand, and even if I do, I don't have any elite soldiers to bring." A flush of excitement appeared on the young captain's face, "Fighting without permission is also disobedience and will be beheaded." ”
"Soldiers are not a problem, there are still three thousand old soldiers in the camp, don't underestimate these people, experienced, hard-working, you pick out eight hundred people, three horses per person, not with heavy armor, only with knives and bows, three pots of arrows per person, enough water and dry food, light and rushed, rest the horses and do not stop people, seven days, you will definitely be able to kill the Hun royal court."
"Where's the guide?" Huo Qubing is not at ease, he doesn't care about hardship and suffering, sacrifice and bloodshed, but he attaches great importance to victory and defeat, only the sand table has no guide, and it is still in vain.
Liu Yan smiled and said, "How do you think this sand table map came from?" As he spoke, he placed the talisman on the case.
"It's done!" In the end, it was a seventeen-year-old boy, his blood surged up, he didn't care anymore, picked up the talisman, let the soldiers pass the order, and the whole army gathered.
After the three thousand old and weak people lined up in the school field, Huo Qubing went to pick 800 veterans with decent physique, each equipped with three war horses, set off lightly, and marched north overnight.
The young general was in high spirits and took the lead, and the white feathers on his helmet were dyed red by the setting sun.
