Wei Li Xiaoguo, not to mention compared with giants like Han and Huns, even in front of Yan Lu and Qiuzi, he is only a younger brother.

As soon as the Xiongnu left, the Kingdom of Yuli and him were equivalent to being roasted on the fire.

His only way out was to follow the Huns into the basin south of the Tianshan Mountains.

However, if this is done, if the Huns cannot come back, and he goes there, I am afraid that his status is not as good as that of a pawn, and he may not even be able to eat enough.

Compared with it, although Wei Li is small, at least he is still a king, and there is no problem with fine clothes and food.

Li Ling didn't care about the idea of the cicada sting, for him, Wei Li was just an insignificant pawn.

The key is still the Han army!

He must think of a way to break the situation and force the Han army back!

However, Zheng Ji's army is now in a group, clearly using national strength and Xiongnu consumption.

And behind him is the entire Han family, the vast empire.

Even though this empire is not as powerful as it was in its heyday, it is not comparable to the Xiongnu, not to mention that it is only the Western Regions of the Xiongnu that is at war with it now.

"This strategy is definitely not Zheng Ji's handiwork," Li Ling muttered to himself......

This is something he has long understood, and Zheng Guitar is not unrecognizable.

He has an impatient personality and great ambitions, but he lacks the vision, wrist and mind like his predecessor Wei Qinghuo, and cannot tolerate people.

The Dawan War, the Battle of Tianshan, and the Battle of Yuwushui all perfectly reflected his character, although at that time, Zheng Ji was only a small Shang Shulang.

Li Ling still remembers how Zheng Ji used his power to wear small shoes for him, and how he restricted and suppressed him.

If it weren't for this, Li Ling would not have been surrounded by the Xiongnu in the Junji Mountains.

But the question is, who came up with the idea? Why did Zheng Ji listen?

"In the four counties of Hexi, no one can make Zheng Ji obedient like this......" Li Ling thought: "The only person in this world who can suppress Zheng Ji is the ...... in Chang'an"

Li Ling's mind flashed the familiar Son of Heaven sitting upright on the Xuanshu Hall.

He was a loyal ruler, but now his enemy.

However, Liu Xun, the son of the Han Dynasty, is just a young man and cannot influence the government.

In this way, there is only one person, Huo Guang, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty.

This time, the sages were able to mobilize the forces of the entire Western Regions so decisively, which was also influenced by Huo Guang's exposition - war is a part of political exchanges, politics is the goal, and war is the means.

Therefore, he summoned all his strength, and the whole family took it, and made a desperate bet on Luntai, in order to seek to stabilize his position and increase his prestige with Luntai.

It turned out to be very successful!

As soon as Luntai fell, even if the ancestors suffered heavy losses - the headquarters alone lost more than 2,000, and the servant coalition army as cannon fodder suffered more than 10,000 casualties!

But, the price is worth it!

Now, not only the entire countries of the Western Regions are shocked by the sages' fear of Luntai, but the Mobei Royal Court reacted violently.

The four major clans have all begun to send people to contact, and a large number of people have also appeared within the Twin Clans to show their loyalty.

Mu Qiang is the nature of the Huns!

But the problem is that after taking advantage, they have to face the disparity in national strength between Han and Hungary.

Just like now, the Han people are in a group and don't give them a chance.

Obviously, he bullies people with national strength.

In the face of absolute superiority, all schemes and conspiracies have become as fragile as withered weeds.

But......

"It's not that there is no opportunity...... Li Ling's brain is running rapidly: "It's human, all have shortcomings!" There's a place for everything! ”

He thought about what he knew about Zheng Ji in the past, as if he had caught something, but he couldn't grasp the point for a while, so he rubbed his temples vigorously.

But the cicada couldn't wait, he begged Li Ling with a sad face: "King, please also ask the king to have mercy on Xiao Wang, don't take Xiao Wang to Weisu, there is a gap between the Weisu King and Xiao Wang...... Xiao Wang is afraid that it will harm me......"

"King Danger?" Li Ling asked unconsciously.

But as if grasping at a life-saving straw, the cicada sting knelt down and said: "So that the king knows that the king has always been resentful of this because the king of Gumo refused to marry his daughter and marry the little king......"

"Oh......" Li Ling replied indifferently, and then he reacted, as if he had caught something, and clenched his fists excitedly!

"yes......"

"The king of a small country like Wei Li will still be afraid of being harmed by others because of the events of the old years......"

"Can Zheng Ji be willing to be an executor? Can you be willing to be green for others? ”

In the Han family, the highest level of military generals is to stay like that, strategize and win thousands of miles away.

The second is to capture the flag and expand the territory.

The compulsion of the two is not at the same level at all.

It's very simple, just look at the founding heroes of Emperor Gao, who is in the first place, right?

Wait for Xiao He!

And Xiao Xiangguo has never brought a single soldier in his life, and he has never fought a major war.

What he has always done is logistics, that is, farming.

Secondly, it is to wait for Zhang Liang.

This one did not specifically lead troops to fight, but only planned and planned by Emperor Gao's side.

After these two, it was the turn of Cao Shen, Zhou Bo, Chen Ping, Wang Ling, and Zhang Cang.

Among these people, the highest, the greatest, and the best reputation are not Zhou Bo, who has repeatedly made military exploits, nor is it the brave Wang Ling.

It is Cao Shen who follows Xiao Gui, and Zhang Cang who rules the world.

Especially Zhang Cang, who was unknown in the era of Emperor Gao, but he was a small point among the heroes.

But in history, so far, its status is at the forefront.

Its nickname is a 'Wenhou' that makes countless people jealous and envious.

In other words, even if Zheng Ji wins this battle, others will only praise and praise the person who gave the advice, not the executor.

Jung Ji will be placed under the aura of a contributor.

Just like back then, in the Battle of Guiling, the person who specifically commanded and won the battle was obviously Tian Ji, but the public often ignored Tian Ji, and only Sun Bin was in their eyes.

So......

"The Art of War says: Don't take it from ghosts and gods, don't look like things, can't test it from degrees, you must take it from people!" Li Ling bit his lip, let out a sigh, directly dropped the cicada sting, walked down the city wall, and said to the left and right: "Go and get pen and ink and sheepskin for me......"

"I'm going to write a letter to Zheng Duhu ......" A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He is too familiar with Zheng Ji.

Zheng Ji wanted to prove his heart, and he was already like a demon many years ago.

And now, he is being pressed by power, I am afraid that he has long been dissatisfied, and his heart is full of dry firewood, just a little bit.

Now, Zheng Ji can still endure it, I'm afraid reason is dominant.

In other words, as long as Zheng Ji loses his mind, he will have a chance!

And, for Li Ling, defeating Zheng Ji is not only the pinnacle of his life, but also the salvation of his life, and it is also the proof of his life!

Defeat Zheng Ji, you can tell the world, especially the king of Chang'an, how wrong you were back then!

Liu Xun looked at the music in front of him, looked down at it, and wrote down the general situation of Ling Ju

down.

This note was reported by Pham Minh Huu, and the things mentioned in it are the details and current situation since the start of the war in Lingju.

Judging from Fan Minh You's description, although the Han army won the offensive and defensive battle of Lingju, it did not win easily.

The periphery of the beacon was completely destroyed, and in the offensive and defensive battle that lasted for more than 20 days, the Han army suffered more than 10,000 casualties.

Captain Huqiang, more than 3,000 soldiers before the war, has lost 30% of the battle until now.

The reinforcements of Beidi and Longyou also lost thousands of people.

A large amount of grain and grass, countless materials, ordnance, innumerable.

Shaofu and Dasi Nong alone, the value of the money and silk transferred and leveled exceeded tens of thousands.

In addition, tens of thousands of people and young people were mobilized to escort the war in Lingju.

These are just expenses, not the cost of ordnance and manpower.

And the Han army's captures and gains were few.

Except for getting twenty or thirty thousand heads and tens of thousands of prisoners, surrendered Qiang people, and Yueshi people, there was nothing.

You also have to spend money on food to feed these people.

It's really a big loss!

At least, that's what Liu Xun seems to be now.

There is no way, this year's national financial deficit is big and hole-in-a-like, and the family funds saved by the first emperor have been consumed again.

Especially this year, Hexi has been fighting on two fronts, and construction is being carried out in China.

The treasury has been wiped out.

Originally, Zhang Anshi's great victory made the country's finances much more comfortable, but with the Hexi War, all the income was filled in.

Shaofu and Dasi Nong took out the minting profits of Shanglin Yuan, the income from salt and iron, the income of Haiguan fish and salt, the field tax, and the money, but it was still not enough.

In the end, I had no choice but to move out the funds that were originally intended to be used to repair the Mao Mausoleum, the palace and the relatives of the reward sect, so that I could barely maintain my income and expenditure.

However, at this point, the treasury and the inner treasury are already poor enough to run mice.

In the second half of the year, Shaofu and Dasi Nong didn't know who to go to for the expenses of the project to introduce Huai into Bian.

The pensions, expenses and rewards of the Luntai War, I don't know where to find the money?

However, it is not without harvest, in the river Huang, the water and soil are fertile, fertile fields for thousands of miles, now Lingju prisoners tens of thousands, Chengcheng Qiang Hu innumerable, with its strength, and open the river Huang, if the management is done properly, you can get millions of acres of arable land, millions of stones of corn harvested, tens of millions of taxes

In addition, the Qiang people are good at shepherding mountain sheep, and their cashmere and wool can be used for wool spinning......"

In the West Sea, there are more than a million Qianghu

If you drive the Qiang people and catch them, they will be the slaves of the river, and the land of the river will be opened to future generations.

The current Hehuang area is not the Qinghai and Gansu provinces that had serious soil erosion and overdevelopment in later generations.

It is a place of beautiful natural scenery and lush vegetation.

Although the Yellow River washes over the soil along both banks of the river day after day, soil erosion continues to increase.

But overall, the situation is manageable!

In addition, in order to prevent land loss, poplar can be planted on a large scale.

After cultivation, this poplar tree has become a plant that specializes in strengthening water and soil and has a well-developed root system.

In addition, several suitable plants can also be selected locally for directional cultivation, so that they can effectively stabilize the water and soil.

If it does, then, if successful, the threat of flooding in the Yellow River may be reduced by more than half!

As long as the sediment in the upstream is reduced, then the sediment content in the middle and lower reaches will definitely be greatly reduced.

Without sediment, the risk of bank failure caused by siltation of the Yellow River is reduced by N times.
