Wei Qing didn't know why Zhang Yuan suddenly said this to him so solemnly.

It's just that when I think about it, it seems that everyone up and down the Zhang Mansion is not allowed to drink raw water directly, even if it is led down by the spring on Lantian Mountain.

In order not to let others doubt his identity, Zhang Yuan never admonished others like a prophet.

The matter in front of him has obviously broken through Zhang Yuan's bottom line.

But there must also be a breakthrough.

Since ancient times, literati have valued Li Guang, and martial artists have respected Huo.

Zhang Yuan himself understands what kind of character he is, he is not a literati or a martial artist, but he knows who is more important.

Li Guang himself got lost and lost until he died, and even when he was dying in the end, Liu Che couldn't stand it anymore and deliberately put him together to let him hang up quickly.

Why can Li Guang be passed down through the ages, and even have a reputation no less than Wei Qing?

Zhang Yuan knew that Li Guang was not useless, but he was really not as good as Wei Qing and Huo Quai, and to put it simply, he couldn't keep up with the trend of history.

There were conservatives and reformists among the literati, and the same was true for military generals.

Li Guang is the representative of the old school, and Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are reformers.

Liu Che was a supporter of reformers, and if he wanted to become a generation of saints, he could not tolerate the humiliation of the Han people by foreigners.

The old-fashioned school of military generals is different from that of the literati.

The reason why the literati are conservative is to adhere to a certain point of view, while the military generals are conservative because they are accustomed to the old ways of warfare, and it is not that they do not support the new policy against the enemy.

Liu Che said that Li Guang also supported the change of offense and defense, but he could not change his combat style by changing the shape of offense and defense.

His strategy of leading troops was no longer applicable to the Han of this period.

Li Guang's name is very loud in Chinese history, and men, women and children all know that the Han Dynasty has such a strong general.

For thousands of years, some people sighed for the self-slaughter of this fierce general, and even said that Li Guang was a hero.

The Li family has been a generalist for thousands of years, and there have been generals who can lead the troops from generation to generation, and their reputation has been accumulated.

Li Guang, like Huo Quai, is also a teenager in the army, he joined the army when Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was in the army, and has been in the army for more than 30 years now.

Since Zhou Yafu's death, Li Guang has become a representative figure in the army.

Although Dou Ying and Han Anguo both commanded an army, with a small number of more than 100,000 soldiers and more than 300,000 soldiers and horses, their direction was always political rather than military.

Therefore, Li Guang has always been the leader of the Han army, Zhang Yuan guessed that Liu Che finally cheated Li Guang once, and even did not hesitate to take Wei Qing's reputation in order to let Li Guang hang up earlier.

Why?

Li Guang was unlucky, either lost or the whole army was wiped out, Liu Che needed a general who won the battle, not a general who wasted the strength and materials of the Han Dynasty.

But as long as you use soldiers, can you cross Li Guang?

Even if Liu Che is the emperor, he can't, this has become a bug-like existence.

Endless loop!

If you use soldiers, you have to use Li Guang, and if you use Li Guang, you have to lose a large number of materials and soldiers.

In other words, other emperors can endure it, at least Liu Che left a name for Li Guang through the ages, and did not let him go to Chang'an City to be humiliated.

When Li Guang was young, like Huo Quai, he was born a talent and arrogant.

When he was young, he couldn't wait to fight the Xiongnu every day, and finally forced Emperor Jing of Han to quickly transfer Li Guang away from the border county.

Zhang Yuan felt that Li Guang just didn't meet the right person at the right time.

Wei Qing and Huo Qubing both met Liu Che when they were young and met a powerful man, while Li Guang met Emperor Wen of Han when he was young, and Emperor Jing of Han met a big man with constant civil strife.

Ancient rules are very important, especially in the military, without which it is impossible to form a strong fighting force.

However, Li Guang's marching army did not follow the system, the garrison did not follow the system, he did not patrol at night, and the big tent rarely used documents.

This way of leading troops is simple, and the soldiers below are also comfortable.

But how many soldiers can you bring?

Han Xin's more troops the better, and Li Guang's troops will be chaotic if they lead more than 10,000 troops.

Moreover, although Li Guang did not meet his talents, and his obsession in his heart was not realized until death, his head was clear when he was fighting, but he was confused politically.

Earlier, during the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, he could have been crowned a marquis in one fell swoop by virtue of his exploits in capturing the main banner of the rebels, but he threw himself into the arms of Liu Wu, the younger brother of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty at that time, and accepted Liu Wu's general seal.

Isn't that just political confusion? and was also confused into the royal struggle between Emperor Jing of Han and King Liang.

Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty doesn't suppress you, who do you suppress?

Who can be an emperor, how can there be any kind people?

If Zhang Yuan made the emperor's formulation, he would also put those who offended him to death, and the suppression would be considered merciful to Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty.

Shelving Zhang Yuan directly found a reason to cut off Li Guang's head.

If Liu Che estimates that this kind of thing happens, if you don't slaughter it, your three clans will have to kill all the main families of the Li family in Longxi.

Thinking that Wei Qing finally became the coach this time and had to bring Li Guang with him, Zhang Yuan felt unwilling for Wei Qing, and could only hope that his students who acted as navigators would be of great use at that time.

But think about it, there are actually more people like Li Guang.

As soon as they fight, they will get lost, or they will encounter the main force of the enemy army and be wiped out, but those people do not have such a great reputation as Li Guang.

Li Guang's talent is still outstanding among the Han generals at this stage.

In addition, after Zhou Yafu's death, there was a window period between the generals of the Han Dynasty, which made Li Guang a representative of the military, so his fame also increased.

Moreover, before Li Guang's death, it was Liu Che and Wei Qing who personally took away the opportunity to make him a marquis, so that his talent and obsession reached the peak.

The cause of Li Guang's death was also suicide, which was even more tragic, and his reputation for loving nurses was also widely spread because of his lax methods of governing the army.

His tragic fate is just in line with the grief and indignation of most literati who have not met their talents.

In the end, it is the credit of Sima Qian, who wrote the swan song of the historian without rhyme.

Sima Qian is writing "Historical Records" with his own feelings, which is naturally mixed with a lot of personal likes and dislikes and emotions.

The two of them met Liu Che, the emperor, Sima Qian was unhappy when he saw Liu Che, and Liu Che suppressed Li Guang, so Li Guang naturally became the object that Sima Qian wanted to praise.

Sima Qian is estimated to be the first literati to do his best to praise Li Guang, and there are countless literati and celebrities who later praised Li Guang for Li Guang's sigh.

But in reality, the Li Guang that Zhang Yuan saw was not what everyone touted.

At the very least, Li Guang is arrogant and arrogant, sometimes he doesn't take risks when he should take risks, and he rushes with a large army when he shouldn't.

Li Guang is famous for his archery skills, but he often chooses the method of close shooting.

The close-range shooting made Li Guang trapped in the battle many times, on the other hand, Wei Qing rarely led troops to charge since he took the position of the commander.

Therefore, Li Guang is at most a general, not a handsome talent.

Of course, the most important thing is Li Guang's adaptability, which is also the most uncomfortable point for Zhang Yuan, as a veteran, he can't adapt to the change of policy towards the enemy, so stay at home and recuperate.

But as long as Liu Che said that he was going to go to the battlefield, Li Guang would definitely go to the battlefield himself. Eighth Library

During the reign of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jingdi, the Han-Hun war has always been against the Xiongnu in defensive battles.

Li Guang fought this kind of defensive war for many years, but when he came to Liu Che, he changed from passive defense to active attack.

From positional warfare to movement warfare.

The Han army often had to go deep into the hinterland of the Xiongnu and attack for long distances, and this mode of combat required the generals who led the troops to dare to go deep behind enemy lines and find opportunities to annihilate the enemy during the movement.

In the Battle of Mayi, Zhang Yuan gave Wei Qing a way to let him run thousands of miles to attack the Xiongnu Dragon City, and Huo Quzhi, who was born out of nowhere, took this combat method to the extreme.

At this time, Li Guang, who was already old, did not have the sharpness he had at the beginning, and he could not adapt to this style of play.

Li Guang is just a very famous loser under the tide of history.

Because there are many generals like Li Guang who can't accept change, or who are not suitable for new playing styles, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are particularly important.

It is too important to be too little, and any one of them will make the big man have no strength to fight again.

Because if the battle continues, the Han will not have a general who can lead his troops to gallop thousands of miles in the desert.

Of course, if Liu Che can change the military merit system and give Li Guang and these people a marquis, maybe they can make these generals glow with a second spring.

But Zhang Yuan can't do it, not to mention that Zhang Yuan, the entire Han can, except for Liu Che, no one can do it.

Liu Che will not change the military merit system, and the current military merit system emphasizes the 'middle and first captivity'.

It includes three contents: first, the capture of the Xiongnu king, the minister, the general, and the Que clan can be crowned.

The second is to kill more than 1,000 enemies, and you can be a marquis.

The third is to make a significant contribution to the victory, and can be crowned.

This method directly blocked the possibility of a war to draw the feudal marquis, and the possibility of attacking more with less and finally annihilating the whole army or losing both the feudal marquis.

It was only when a one-sided victory occurred that the soldiers were able to take away the heads of the Huns they had killed.

Liu Che can falsely report his military exploits to inspire the people and cheer up the Han.

But those generals don't dare, once they lose, the enemies they killed before losing cannot be counted as military merits.

Didn't Liu Che know about this loophole, and didn't know that it would discourage the enthusiasm of the veterans?

He knew, but he would have preferred to see victory after victory.

Just like the battle of Mayi, everyone in the Han Dynasty only knew that Wei Qing led more than 2,000 men to slaughter the Xiongnu Dragon City, but they didn't know that Han Anguo and Li Guang also killed tens of thousands of Huns.

History has always only been a record of the victors.

Wei Qing was pondering Zhang Yuan's warning, and Zhang Yuan's thoughts had been drifting among the generals.

Before they knew it, the two of them had arrived at the gate of Duxian County.

"Too much of a school order."

The city gate guards in Du County naturally recognized Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan just nodded, and then rode into the city with Wei Qing.

If you want to find Chu Da, you must go to Taixue.

When he arrived at Taixue, Zhang Yuan led Wei Qing to his mansion and found King Wuqiu Shou.

"Taixue Ling, you can be regarded as back, is Chang'an City okay?"

It's a pity that King Wuqiu Shou is still there, and he didn't experience this major event in Chang'an City.

"Just like that, the queen was abolished in the Changmen Palace, and all the people who should be killed have been killed by Zhang Tang.

The former general and I had to go to Lantian Mountain immediately, and I heard that the Shaofu ordered Chu Da to resign, and he also came to Du County, do you know the news? ”

"Returning to the Taixue Order, a few days ago, the Shaofu Order came to Taixue and said that he wanted to look for you, but you are in Chang'an City, so the lower official replied like this.

The Shaofu Commander told the subordinate where he was staying, and said that when you returned, or if he could contact you, he told you that he was now resting in an inn in the south of the city. ”

"Why don't you leave the Shaofu Order in the mansion?"

"Well, he said that he has resigned and is no longer an official, and he can no longer enjoy such convenience."

Zhang Yuan didn't expect Chu Da to be so particular.

It's a chance not to gossip in the slightest.

But Zhang Yuan thought about it, if Chu Da was not such a cautious character, he would have overturned long ago after being sandwiched between Liu Che, the Queen Mother and Chen Ajiao for so many years.

There are few people in the famous Shaofu Order of the Han Dynasty, and basically they can't even find it in the history books, just because this position has changed too quickly.

Sometimes it is the emperor's person who ascends the throne, sometimes it is the queen mother's person who ascends the throne, and sometimes it is the queen's person who ascends the throne.

The two witch curses Shaofu did not escape, and it was really unlucky.

Liu Ju even led Shaofu to everyone from top to bottom to be purged that time.

"Brother Qing, are you waiting here or come with me to the south of the city to find Chu Da?"

Wei Qing thought about it for a while, and felt that Chu Da should have something important to tell Zhang Yuan when he waited for so long, so he refused Zhang Yuan.

"Brother Yuan, I have never been to Taixue, so please ask Taixue Cheng to take me around here."

"That's fine."

Zhang Yuan nodded and turned to leave.

And King Wuqiu Shou really took Wei Qing around Taixue.

There are only two inns in the south of the city, and Zhang Yuan inquired about Chu Da's news in the first one.

Sometimes identity is really good.

As soon as Zhang Yuanren appeared, the entire inn looked at him.

At this time, many of the students who were kicked out of Taixue by Zhang Yuan were still in Du County.

Speaking of which, it was the first time for Zhang Yuan to feel that time passed so slowly, and so many things had happened in the past half a month.

"Knock knock."

"Who?"

"I, Zhang Yuan."

"Ah Yuan, come in, the door is not plugged in."

Under the leadership of Xiao Er in the store, Zhang Yuan went directly to the door of Chu Da's room, and there was a response as soon as he knocked on the door.

Waiting for Zhang Yuan to go in, Xiao Er was a little surprised and a little flustered.

At first, I thought that there was a rich man living here, but the price of the house price and the price of the dishes made Chu Da a handful.

As a result, listening to the tone of Zhang Yuan and Chu Da's conversation across the door, you can feel that the person living inside has an unusual relationship with the number one person in Du County.

The more Xiao Er thought about it, the more he felt his scalp tingle.

If this thing is poked out, what will it be? Whether their inn can continue to open in Du County is still two words.
