Chapter 256: Think of a way out
Wrath.
It was Liu Che's first emotion.
After he saw Zhang Yuan's recital, he was extremely angry.
Because Zhang Yuan is selfish, and he is also selfish.
One wants to get his eldest brother into the army melee merit, and the other wants to get his favorite courtiers into the army melee merit.
As a result, Zhang Yuan dared to disobey the holy will.
really let Zhang Qian go to the Hussar General's Mansion, Liu Che can be sure that Zhang Yuan will definitely make Zhang Qian a person who doesn't care about anything.
Otherwise, he really gave Zhang Qian a sword and asked him to fight the Huns.
What is hateful is that Zhang Yuan has never told Liu Che anything in this tone.
made Liu Che suddenly have an illusion.
Zhang Yuan may have swelled up and began to care less about him as an emperor.
At present, there is no one in the DPRK and China, and it is a big problem for Liu Che.
It seems that no matter who is chosen to go to Northern Xinjiang to cooperate with Wei Qing, it is not as good as Zhang Yuan.
The angry Liu Che did not consider whether what Zhang Yuan wrote on the chapter was reasonable.
He only saw Zhang Yuan's behavior of resisting the order.
Without going through the brain, Liu Che directly approved Zhang Yuan's recital.
'Doctor Taizhong's transfer to the Hussar General's Mansion as a military commander remains unchanged. ’
In fact, logically speaking, Zhang Yuan's establishment of the government must use his own people, which is normal.
Once the emperor appoints someone as a general, gives the other party the power to open a government system, and then interferes with it, it will make the people of the world think that you have no strength to be the emperor and distrust the general you appointed.
If there is no trust, why appoint.
But this set won't work with Liu Che.
In this way, Zhang Yuan's edict was beaten back, and after Zhang Yuan saw it, he was not surprised at all.
He had discussed this matter with Ji Fu.
Give Liu Che a preventive shot first.
When the war is over and the military merits are reported, Zhang Qian's name will definitely not be on the military merit medal.
"Mr. Jifu is very skilled in advancing and retreating?"
"Xin'an Hou Mo wants to make fun of the villain, Your Majesty will not be thinking about Zhang Qian's military exploits at all now.
When the time comes, we can talk about today's letter, and Your Majesty will definitely have a disgust for the Hou Ye in his heart.
In other words, when the time comes, Hou Ye's resignation will be much smoother. ”
This was all calculated by Zhang Yuan.
To make Liu Che feel that Zhang Yuan would occasionally prick his hand.
When Zhang Yuan resigns, Liu Che's chances of agreeing will be many, many.
Even if he didn't agree, Zhang Yuan wanted to stay away from Chang'an City and go to a small county town in the south or a county town to be a county commander or a taishou.
If you are not by Liu Che's side, the chances of survival are still very high.
"I hope so, it's just that Zhang Qian is not a thing to get in the way.
He has been staying in Dinghu Yanshou Palace, and even if he doesn't interfere, he may know all about my plan. ”
"Xin Anhou just found a reason to get him away.
For example, someone needs to be watching in the Chinese military government to see the progress of weapons and equipment manufacturing. ”
"Again, Mr. Jifu is right.
Zhang Qian is coming, so I will force him back.
If Your Majesty asks again, I will simply return the seal to Your Majesty.
To be honest, if it weren't for Chu Da, I didn't think that the Han-Hungarian War would be ended so soon. ”
Zhang Yuan understands very well that when there is no threat from the outside of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che will undergo a big change.
It is also a sign that he is beginning to move from a wise monarch to a tyrant.
"How could Xin Anhou have such an idea?"
"Zhang Qian is not good-looking, and he is old, why do you say Your Majesty likes him?"
"The villain really doesn't know."
"The Western Regions."
"Xin'anhou is saying that Doctor Taizhong knows too much about the Western Regions, and these things have attracted His Majesty?"
"Yes, now there are still Xiongnu and Qianghu between the Han and the Western Regions.
When the Xiongnu are cleaned up by us, Qianghu will definitely take refuge in the Han Dynasty, and the Hexi Corridor will be opened up at that time.
Countless treasures from the Western Regions will enter Chang'an City through the Hexi Corridor.
The beauties of the Western Regions, the fine wine of the Western Regions, the food of the Western Regions, and the legendary heavenly horses, the various colors of jade, and the endless wealth of squandering. ”
"Doctor Taizhong did say this to the ministers, I don't think there will be any falsehood."
Zhang Yuan shook his head at Zhang Qian.
What the hell is the Western Regions, Zhang Yuan knows better than anyone in the Han Dynasty.
To say that there is endless wealth is a complete liar.
Beautiful women, wine and food are all true, Tianma is just a better breed of horse, and Hetian Yu is also true.
But their wealth is not as good as that of the Huns, how can they be compared with the Han Dynasty.
"Xin'anhou, you said that what Doctor Taizhong said was a lie? This shouldn't be, my Han has a lot of Hu people from the Western Regions, and that's what they say. ”
"Let me ask my husband, since the Western Regions are so good, why don't the Huns attack those small countries in the Western Regions, but instead fight to the death against my Han Dynasty?"
Ji Fu was asked by Zhang Yuan and had nothing to say.
The countries in the Western Regions were all subjects of the Huns, and it was no easier and more pleasant to plunder them than to plunder the wealth of the Han Dynasty.
"What Xin Anhou said is reasonable."
"Think about it, with the Xiongnu on one side, Your Majesty's desire for the Western Regions is not so deep.
But if the Huns are gone....
I can't imagine that.
Do you think it is possible for His Majesty to send 100,000 cavalry all the way to the west for 10,000 miles? ”
If it is a prosperous place in the Western Regions, and there are more people than the Han Dynasty, then it is okay to spend a lot of energy and manpower to expand the territory.
But there are only so few people in the Western Regions, and it is impossible for them to be used for themselves.
All you need to do is send tens of thousands of troops, go around, take them all as your vassals, and then set up an administrative district.
In this way, it can be proved that the Western Regions are the territory of China.
Putting all your experience there all the time is really going to kill people.
It's too far.
And just like the battle against the Huns, even if you win?
The treasury will still be empty, and this kind of war will be a loss.
"Thinking about it, Your Majesty's desire to conquer is still very strong."
"In this case, I prefer to focus on developing the South.
The land in the south is more fertile, and if you cultivate it for a long time, you must produce more grain than you can harvest in the north.
In addition, it is also possible to take away the Wuhuan people's land, these places are places where our Han people can live, and as for the Western Regions, it is impossible for our Han people to live there for a long time.
It's like the Huns have always only plundered the Han people, but never conquered the land of the Han people. ”
"Xin'anhou, you will understand the villain as soon as you say this, but why didn't Xin'anhou tell your majesty all these words?"
"If Your Majesty could listen to me, I would have said it, but he certainly wouldn't.
He will only think that you Zhang Yuan have never been to the Western Regions, where did you get the conclusion.
You see, I haven't been to the desert or the grassland before, so didn't I draw the map of the Huns? ”
Jifu still admires Zhang Yuan very much.
That map meant far more to the Han than an army of 100,000 people, millions more, and much heavier stones, grains, and grass.
If it weren't for that map, no one in the Han Dynasty would have been able to find traces of the Xiongnu on the grassland.
More than 40 percent of the first two major victories in the Hungarian War were related to that map.
"It is also said that if you come, you will be safe.
Xin'anhou is talented and knows how to protect his life.
It will be very smooth in the future. ”
Zhang Yuan nodded, he didn't say anything to Ji Fu, and he didn't fully trust Ji Fu.
This person is far deeper than Zhang Yuan thought.
Zhang Qian soon came back with a swagger.
Liu Che's support gave him a lot of confidence.
"Hussar general, now the lower officials can go to Dinghu Yanshou Palace to work."
Zhang Yuan glanced at Zhang Qian and looked at him with the eyes of a fool.
It's not like you don't know what is written on it, and what are you doing so excited?
Zhang Qian felt that he had Liu Che's support, and Zhang Yuan would never dare to do anything to him.
But he doesn't know that Zhang Yuan is defiling himself now, how arrogant he is, he just has to act under the rules.
"I know, you go back to Chang'an City."
"Your Majesty asked me to be a hussar general, and I won't go anywhere except Dinghu Yanshou Palace."
"Since you are my long history, you won't go if I ask you to go to Chang'an City, so you can roll the calf as soon as possible."
"The hussar general asked the subordinate to go to Chang'an City, please give a reason, otherwise I will report to Your Majesty truthfully."
Zhang Yuan really convinced this middle-aged man, and he returned it endlessly.
"Go to the Chinese Military Mansion and keep an eye on the military supplies I need, before the 100,000 troops arrive, you will be there to keep an eye on me.
When the people are all together and the supplies are all together, you can come back to me again.
That's what Changshi should be in charge of, you don't know it, right? ”
Zhang Qian didn't expect Zhang Yuan to make such a scene, and his eyes widened for a while.
"The lower officials listen to orders."
No matter how awesome Zhang Qian is, under Zhang Yuan's normal scheduling, he still can't refuse Zhang Yuan's order.
Otherwise, according to military law, Zhang Qian's skin is thick and he can't withstand being beaten.
finally solved Zhang Qian's trouble, and Zhang Yuan temporarily arranged his eldest brother Xiao Ding to be the captain of his guard.
No one can gossip this time.
As for the higher position, Zhang Yuan felt that he still left Chang'an City, and when he arrived in Yuyang County, he would find Wei Qing a favor and arrange a deputy general for this eldest brother.
As a result, the Hussar General's Mansion in Dinghu Yanshou Palace also had no one that Zhang Yuan hated.
All of them were studying how to defeat the Xiongnu Dadan Yu in one fell swoop.
After all, the Han had to face not only a Xiongnu, but also the Wuhuan clan.
In terms of troops, the two sides are equal, and the Great Han Sheng is better than these nomads in terms of weapons and equipment, but the Xiongnu and Wuhuan are stronger because they are both cavalry.
And Zhang Yuan has 100,000 cavalry on his side, and Wei Qing has 50,000 on his side.
Once chased out for a certain distance, it is very likely to be surrounded by the 500,000 cavalry of the Xiongnu and Wuhuan.
Yes.
After the military ministers confronted the Han army for a period of time, and after knowing the news of the defeat of King Hutu and King Hun Evil.
The military minister intended to directly engage in a long confrontation with the Han army.
So he transferred all his tribes to the city of Decadence, so that the military ministers had 300,000 cavalry to fight.
At the critical moment, the women of the Huns could also get on their horses and fight.
Together with the 200,000 cavalry of Wuhuan, this is an army of 500,000, but the number of Wuhuan and Xiongnu exceeds 1.2 million.
This number made Wei Qing and Gongsun He unable to attack rashly.
1.2 million pigs surrounded an army of 300,000 can also cause heavy losses to an army of 300,000.
Not to mention that these are nomads who are skilled in the use of bows and arrows.
They could have gotten 1.2 million pairs of bows and arrows.
So the two sides confronted each other like this.
Liu Che will send another 100,000 foot soldiers to Wei Qing this winter, as well as countless military supplies.
Then in the spring of the following year, Zhang Yuan would lead 100,000 cavalry to the north, seeking an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with the Xiongnu and Wuhuan.
At this time, it is also the time to use Chu Da's shadow.
Chu Da's identity has always been a mystery in the Han Dynasty, no one knows whether Chu Da is dead or alive on the side of the Huns, and many people have even forgotten this person.
The people who know the details are in Dahan, that is, the group of people in the Xin'an Hou Mansion, plus Wei Qing, Liu Che and Princess Pingyang.
The army guarding the Chu family at the foot of Lantian Mountain didn't even know what their true identities were.
It was under such circumstances that Zhang Yuan and Chu Da were able to find a chance to completely exterminate the Huns.
But before that, Zhang Yuan needs to make all the plans.
If Chu Da's news can't be delivered, or Chu Da's identity is revealed.
This battle must continue to be fought, and it is impossible to stop fighting it because there is no such information.
Liu Che mobilized an army of 500,000 not to end peacefully.
Zhang Yuan looked at the map every day, studying the terrain around the city.
The more he studied, the more he realized that the military minister was really smart.
And this city was built for the Xiongnu at that time.
There was wilderness on all sides, and there was simply no way to block the way for the Huns to retreat.
Zhang Yuan wanted to lead 100,000 cavalry around the rear, which was basically impossible.
After you go around, the Huns only need to send a large army to entangle you, and then the rest of the people can calmly retreat from both sides.
But if you don't go around, you won't even be able to catch that army.
As for the siege, it is even more impossible.
The vigilance of the Huns was no longer so low.
Their scout squads have all begun to wander the territory of Yuyang County.
It can be said that as long as Zhang Yuan led the army into Yuyang County, he would be directly exposed to the sight of the Huns.
Unless you go around it somewhere else, just like when you were trying to destroy the Aries King and the Lou Fu King.
The northern border of the Han Dynasty was very long, and Zhang Yuan could find many places to go around the back of the Huns without letting them find out.
But it doesn't make any sense.
The back is the back, but there is no way to contact Chu Da, and it can't be echoed by Wei Qing's army.
Zhang Yuan was worried now, and the military ministers found out that the Han had begun to gather troops in Yuyang County, and then simply retreated.
I'm not playing with you anymore.
Not only Zhang Yuan, but the entire Han Dynasty will suffer a great loss.
took so many supplies to fight the Huns, but it ended without killing a person, and the Han had to die at a loss.
