Chapter 5: If you want to go outside, you must first settle inside.

There was a gloomy light in Minzhongqing's eyes, he sighed, and said: "Although what you said is reasonable, but Dawan is tens of thousands of miles away from Chang'an, how easy is it to make him offer excellent horse breeds?" It's not that the Han Dynasty is unwilling to wait, but, in the end, what can it change? ”

After a pause, suddenly, his tone became fierce, "Instead of making the border suffer from the harassment of the Huns, it is better for our Han army to take the initiative to attack!" ”

"Although the gentleman is reasonable, Mingzhe still does not recommend using troops against the Xiongnu too early." His pupils flashed with confidence, and Bai Mingzhe said in a deep voice: "I don't know anything in the waiter, Dawan is the ear of a small country in the Western Regions!" Its national strength is compared with the Huns, but it is only a drop in the bucket, and its national strength is compared with Yelang, but it is only between the two middlemen! ”

Lifting the thin silk quilt that covered the map, he pointed to Dawan's location and said loudly: "Your Majesty only needs to send a hundred envoys to Dawan, and then you only need to give him grace and power to hand over the horse breed." If it cooperates, my Han will take it as an ally, if not, His Majesty only needs to take Wei Qing as the commander, lead 30,000 troops, set off from the clouds, pass through the Hexi Corridor, penetrate the Western Regions, and directly take the Dawan royal family! ”

In the later period of the Han Dynasty, when the famous generals withered and the treasury was empty, Li Guangli could lead the Han army to expedition to Dawan, not to mention the fact that the Han Dynasty was strong and the generals were sufficient.

Bai Mingzhe believes that as long as Wei Qing is given three years of growth, he can lead the Great Han Xiongshi, go straight to Huanglong, and take the head of the Dawan royal family!

The prestige of the chariot generals in later generations was not blown out, but accumulated in a large number of wars.

A hint of surprise flashed in Min Zhongqing's eyes, "Jun is so optimistic about Wei Qing? ”

Bai Mingzhe patted his chest proudly, as if he was talking about himself, "The kid can't guarantee anything else, Wei Qing's ability to lead the troops, after the Marquis of Huaiyin, no one can compare!" ”

After finishing speaking, he silently added in his heart, "Except for Huo Qu's illness." ”

Wei Huo and the two have their own strengths, and it is difficult to determine which is higher or lower.

Min Zhongqing suddenly smiled and nodded, as if he was very satisfied with Bai Mingzhe's words, "Interesting!" Wei Qing has never commanded the army, where does your confidence come from? ”

"It's just the ability to know people!" Bai Mingzhe said modestly, "If you want to gain a foothold in the court, the kid suggests walking around with Wei Qing more." I would like to make a prophecy here: If you want to recover the Hexi Corridor, you must Weiqing! ”

Min Zhongqing suddenly laughed a few times, "Hahahaha, I borrowed Jun Jiyan." ”

After a pause, he said solemnly: "Your proposal to delay the dispatch of troops, tomorrow morning, this official will report to Your Majesty truthfully." Is there anything else you need to add to this? ”

"Yes!" Bai Mingzhe's eyes were like torches, and his words were chiseled, "Internal and external troubles, and the country's difficulties!" If you want to deal with the Xiongnu without any scruples, the Yellow River must be managed! Only when the rear is stable, can our Han transfer all his energy to dealing with the Xiongnu. ”

"It seems that you are confident in your own plan to control the river." Min Zhongqing sighed, "Although it's late, I don't mind hearing it!" Please speak! ”

Bai Mingzhe bowed his hand again and begged: "Please prepare a map of the Han Dynasty for the villain." The clearer the above, the better. ”

Although he was able to draw the counties of the Han Dynasty, he still decided not to paint them.

It's like saying too much and taking too many actions is not a good thing.

If it weren't for the sake of eating, he wouldn't have risked being jealous and excluded by others and came up with Wang Jingzhihe's plan.

If on the basis of these, a detailed map of the territory of the Han Dynasty was drawn...... It is estimated that early tomorrow morning, there will be rumors in Chang'an City that there are freaks born in the Shizhong Mansion.

Min Zhongqing stood up, took advantage of the situation and carefully folded the brocade quilt that he had just taken to draw the map, and said in a deep voice: "I will immediately send someone to Lantai to retrieve the map you want, and it is expected that it will be retrieved when it is ugly." Before that, you will rest and rest. I'll take this map first, and someone will bring me a brand new one later. ”

"Thank you." Bai Mingzhe respectfully bowed his hand, "If possible, please prepare another table that is not needed." The villain is not used to writing on bamboo slips, and wants to write the content of the river control strategy on the table. ”

Min Zhongqing was slightly stunned, but he still agreed, nodded, and said, "Yes!"

Hai time

The bright moon is simple and soft, with kindness, hanging high in the sky.

The stars are shining and the sky is clear.

The vast majority of the dignitaries and nobles in Chang'an City, and the ordinary people in the surrounding areas, have basically entered a wonderful dreamland.

The market has also been closed, and from time to time a group of soldiers in armor walks through the streets.

If there were lights shining in ordinary people's homes so late, they would have to be interrogated by the lieutenant sergeant.

The curfew in the Western Han Dynasty was very strict, and anyone who wandered the streets at night would be taken down and handed over to Yousi for interrogation.

At this moment of silence, in the mansion of the secretary of the people, five or six huge fish oil candles were erected, illuminating the wide wing room very brightly.

These fish oil candles are used by the palace for lighting at night. Liu Che grace, he has a few sticks in stock in his mansion.

Because ox farming had spread almost widely at this time, and the importance of cattle was increasing day by day, it did not adopt the butter giant candle as it did in the heyday of later generations.

Bai Mingzhe and Min Zhongqing were around a table, carefully studying the map made of dead cowhide in front of them.

Not far from them, a civil official sat in a chair, carefully recording their every move, word and deed.

In layman's terms, this civil service recorder. This is because Min Zhongqing was worried that Bai Mingzhe's writing was not clear, so he specially found it to record.

Bai Mingzhe picked up a wooden stick, pointed to a location on the map, and said, "The location of the break should be here, right?"

Min Zhongqing nodded, "That's right, it's in Puyang Gourd." ”

"Looking at the surrounding situation, if I hadn't miscalculated, the Yellow River should have been diverted to the south and seized the Huai into the sea." Bai Mingzhe frowned, muttering the piece of information in his mind.

"You are really talented! According to Ariji's report, the river is indeed diverted to the south! ”

The smile on Min Zhongqing's face became brighter and brighter, and the confidence in his heart became more and more sufficient.

In his opinion, Bai Mingzhe has never been there, and he can actually clarify the place of the Yellow River breach and the direction of the diversion in one sentence, which shows that there is a lot to be done in controlling the river!

Of course, the Yellow River has been flooding for three years, and perhaps some victims have arrived in Chang'an, so that Bai Mingzhe accidentally got this news.

But being able to point out the direction of the break is by no means something that ordinary people can do.

This incident is the result of the fact that the court received a report on the change of the water level of the Huai River, as well as a large amount of information such as the expedited 800 miles of Puyang.

Now Bai Mingzhe has made it clear that this is really ...... If God helps!

"Don't be in a hurry to praise me." Bai Mingzhe interrupted Min Zhongqing's praise, pressed his two hands on the table, his face was close to Min Zhongqing's face, and asked seriously: "I need to know an attitude now!" Your Majesty's clear attitude towards the control of the Yellow River! ”

Min Zhongqing's expression gradually became serious, and he said: "With my understanding of Your Majesty, Your Majesty's original intention is to do everything to control the Yellow River Evil Dragon at all costs!"

"That's good!" Bai Mingzhe closed his eyes and smiled with satisfaction.

As long as Liu Che is resolute, he has a plan to control the river.

Min Zhongqing excitedly put his hands on Bai Mingzhe's shoulders and asked loudly: "Sir, after we met, Jun always sighed that there are policies to control the river that cannot be implemented, is there already a specific plan that can be implemented?" And not an empty idea? ”

"Yes! There is an almost one-and-done solution. ”

Bai Mingzhe opened his eyes, and a bright light shot out from his pupils, which made Min Zhongqing a little distracted.

Once?

Is it really possible......

"Please speak!" Min Zhongqing's expression was serious, he took his hand down, made a gesture of please, and at the same time gave the civil official next to him a look and asked him to pay attention to the record.
