Chapter 306: The Decisive Battle Fights Bravely and Heroically

In Chang'an City, Liu Che, the emperor in the Weiyang Palace, finally received a report from the northern frontier that was as urgent as a spark. The 100,000 iron horsemen of the Huns, at this unexpected time, suddenly marched south. &1t;/p>

The news came back to Chang'an in the second half of the night last night. The eight-hundred-mile Hongling messenger was tired of several horses on the road, and brought back an emergency report written by Li Guang, a veteran of the Taishou of Youbeiping, regardless of his life. &1t;/p>

When His Majesty the Emperor, who woke up in the early hours of the morning, saw this battle report handed in from outside the palace gate last night, the shock in his heart can be imagined. War is born unexpectedly. &1t;/p>

In the previous years, the Huns had never sent troops in winter, because the cold and changeable climate of the steppe was not suitable for the cavalry to fight at this time. For them, the best time for war should be in the beginning of spring when the grass grows and the warbler flies or when the autumn is high and the horse is fat. &1t;/p>

The Huns' long-standing impatience had already made the Han court very vigilant. In the earlier court discussions, the emperor and his courtiers predicted that the war between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu would break out, and it should be next spring at the earliest. For this reason, the large-scale military training proposed by Changle Hou Yuanzhao has been carried out several times this winter. &1t;/p>

Some preparations, of course, are not yet ready. However, the Huns did not play according to the routine, and the war broke out in advance, and it was at this unimagined time. This inevitably caught the emperor a little off guard. &1t;/p>

The veteran Li Guang wrote in detail in the war report, and the Huns' dispatch this time was different from the past, and it seemed that it had been carefully planned. From the secret report transmitted by the Han Dynasty hidden in the depths of the grassland, it can be known that the 100,000 horses this time were all selected elite soldiers, and they were led by King Zuoxian and King Yelu, the most powerful of the tribal kings. The task given to them by the Xiongnu Shan Yu Yi is to break through the Great Wall and drive straight to Chang'an! &1t;/p>

From this slogan, we can see that the Xiongnu is only naked ambition, he wants to repeat the old things when the Xiongnu invaded Chang'an within 100 miles and forced the Han Emperor to sign an alliance under the city! Thinking of this, the anger in the heart of Emperor Liu Che, who had been fighting for the past few years, had long been unbearable. From the siege of Ma Yi to the present, he has endured this breath for a long time! &1t;/p>

"I don't want to endure it anymore! This time, we must no longer only be on the defensive, but attack! I have made up my mind, from now on, I will never allow the hooves of the Huns to step on the Great Wall for another half step! ”&1t;/p>

In the Hanyuan Palace, facing the ministers who were urgently summoned, as soon as the emperor opened his mouth, he said his hole cards. This time he didn't have the patience to listen to the disputes and discussions of the courtiers anymore, since a big war between the two countries could not be avoided sooner or later, let's start now! &1t;/p>

Somewhat unexpectedly, he thought that there would be some serious old ministers who would put forward some different opinions, but the scene was the opposite. It's just that after a moment of silence, the first person to stand up and loudly agree with it turned out to be Zheng Shi, the most stable Taizhong doctor in the court. &1t;/p>

"The old minister agrees with His Majesty's words, the Han and Hungarian feuds, when the time comes! However, Your Majesty does not need to be in a hurry, and it is necessary to plan in detail to win. ”&1t;/p>

Emperor Liu Che was overjoyed in his heart, he was afraid that some old ministers would obstruct it, and they would not be able to unify their opinions and become an obstacle to the national war, but he didn't expect Zheng to stand up and support it immediately. &1t;/p>

"Since Your Majesty has this determination, the minister also seconded it. You can fight! ”&1t;/p>

Prime Minister Sun Hong also followed suit, although his power in the court was much inferior to the previous terms, but after all, he was the position of the three princes, and his support was also crucial. &1t;/p>

Wechen also agreed! There is no need to talk about this matter, raise the prestige of my Han, no matter whether you win or lose, you will really have a real battle with the Huns, and you will fight! ”&1t;/p>

Imperial Historian Zhang Tang even agreed loudly, although this person was born as a cool official, and he was despised by some unscrupulous means in the struggle for power in the imperial court, but he never dragged his feet in such a matter as foreign expeditions. &1t;/p>

"The minister seconded ......!" &1t;/p>

"Your Majesty is wise!" &1t;/p>

"The Huns and wolves are ambitious, and they should have taught a good lesson a long time ago! The last general is willing to be the forerunner! ”&1t;/p>

One after another echoes of approval resounded in the main hall. It turned out to be a situation where the crowd was excited and asked for battle. Emperor Liu Che's heart was excited, his face was slightly red, and he couldn't help but high-five and admire! &1t;/p>

"Good! It's rare, it's really rare! All of you are really loyal to the country. It is very gratifying to have your support. As long as we are inside and outside the government and the opposition, the monarchs and ministers are united, no matter how powerful the Huns are, they have nothing to fear! ”&1t;/p>

Speaking of this, the emperor looked at Taizhong Doctor Zheng with an undisguised smile and nodded. &1t;/p>

"Zheng Qingjia, at this time, there is a full-scale war with the Xiongnu, and there shouldn't be any big problems in terms of treasury support, right?" &1t;/p>

In a large-scale war, in addition to elite troops and strong generals, the most important thing is, of course, the support of logistical support; if we want to win a war, in many cases, whether or not we provide logistical support will play a key role. In other words, it's just going to throw money into it! Weapons and equipment, soldiers, horses, food, and subsequent deployment, all of these places need financial support. &1t;/p>

Over the years, the treasury of the Han Dynasty has been under the management of Zheng at that time. He is an expert in this field, and no one can replace him. Hearing the Emperor ask this question, a smile appeared on his face. &1t;/p>

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about this matter. The reason why Weichen stood up and agreed with His Majesty's proposal for war first was precisely because he had a bottom in his heart about the treasury and had no worries about the future, so he agreed to fight a war. Our family foundation, after all these years of accumulation, is already too rich. The piled up of rice grains needs to be dried frequently so that they don't get moldy, and the rope that wears the money has rotted, so it's time to use them. Hehe! ”&1t;/p>

"I see. Hahaha, hearing what Zheng Qing's family said, then I am much more relieved. ”&1t;/p>

Zheng nodded at that time, thinking of the great changes in the wealth of the imperial treasury and the people in recent years, his voice carried a lot of emotion. &1t;/p>

"Your Majesty, being able to get this good situation today is inseparable from the hard work of the first emperors, and I must be grateful to God for his favor for my Han. Lao Chen remembered that he once heard Changle Hou Yuanzhao say a sentence, The prosperity of our Han Dynasty is coming soon! After the observation of Lao Chen in the past few years, no matter from which point of view, it has begun to show a magnificent atmosphere, which is really a very exciting thing! I can't imagine that in my lifetime, I will have the opportunity to witness the arrival of a thousand-year-old life...... Lao Chen...... What an honor! ”&1t;/p>

Speaking of this, this loyal and upright minister, who had been worried about state affairs for most of his life, couldn't cry silently, and burst into tears. &1t;/p>

There was a sigh in Hanyuan Hall, and there were many people who felt the same way as him, and they couldn't bear it at this moment. Yes, the prosperity of a dynasty, this is the era that countless people want to go to! Only those who have not forgotten those who have been displaced by war in their memories can truly understand how precious such an era is. &1t;/p>

From the three generations of holy kings and below, how could the ancestors have experienced a real prosperous age? The millennium of war has been endless, brutality and conquest, rise and fall and reincarnation, and another round of war has been rekindled...... Until the great Qin Shi Huang unified the world, at that time, many of the fathers and ancestors of these people who are now standing in the court thought that a prosperous dynasty was about to begin. &1t;/p>

However, no one can predict the will of God, and the Great Qin Empire, which was once expected by countless people in the world, collapsed overnight. The dream of a strong country was shattered, the mountains and rivers were overturned, and the world returned to chaos. &1t;/p>

If Liu Bang, the emperor of Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, was re-selected by God to end the war in the world, not many people believed it at the beginning, but now after more than 70 years of exhibition in the Han Dynasty, everyone has been convinced. &1t;/p>

"The destiny of heaven lies in the Liu family", this proverb when the heroes were competing for hegemony, when these courtiers re-remembered it in their minds, it especially added more cognition. &1t;/p>

The Han Dynasty is no longer the Han Dynasty when Emperor Gaozu was trapped in Baishan Mountain during Emperor Gaozu's Northern Expedition to the Huns! On the eve of this prosperous era, it needs a hearty national victory to start. There are some old debts that need to be paid off by the opponent, and the fresh blood of the enemy is needed to pay tribute and feat! This is the common voice of the emperor to the courtiers to the ordinary soldiers. &1t;/p>

A war that decided the fortunes of the country was decided in such an atmosphere. Under the personal assignment of His Majesty the Emperor, all relevant departments immediately took action and began to make preparations for various wars. The messenger with the secret edict came out of Chang'an again, rushed to the northern border pass in the starry night, and brought the will of His Majesty the Emperor to all the soldiers, so that they could mobilize the whole army and prepare for a big battle! &1t;/p>

The general of the Northern Army battalion stationed in the north of Chang'an City and the general of the Xiliu Battalion in the west of the city received an order from the emperor's envoy at the same time, ordering them to dispatch soldiers who dared to fight, prepare all matters for battle, and go north to the front line of Yanmen Pass to fight together. &1t;/p>

After the emperor discussed with several ministers, he made a preliminary estimate, and in this way, the total number of Han troops participating in this war had reached almost 100,000, which was equivalent to the number of Xiongnu soldiers and horses. &1t;/p>

However, this alone is not enough, and victory cannot be achieved by will and blood alone. The reputation of the invincible Hun iron cavalry is not easy to get, it is a real soldier tempered by blood and fire. In previous military assessments, when the Han soldiers fought against these Hun cavalry who had grown up on horseback since childhood, the casualty ratio of both sides reached six to one. &1t;/p>

In other words, a strong Hun cavalry can kill or injure five or six Han soldiers in a frontal charge on the battlefield, which is very surprising and terrifying. This is also the main reason why the Han Dynasty has not dared to really start a decisive battle with it. &1t;/p>

"Fortunately, now that I have a vigorous and fierce falcon in my hands, that kid from Yuan Zhao has been raising it for himself, it's time to take it back and let it hunt for the country." &1t;/p>

Emperor Liu Che raised his head while walking towards Jianzhang Palace, as if he was seeing a blue wolf running from the grassland outside the vast Yanmen Pass, which had already shown its claws and fangs. &1t;/p>

The sky is high and the west is strong, and the horses bend their bows to shoot the wolf! The black eagle spreads its wings, the wind is thousands of miles, after today, there are hundreds of battles, and the vigorous and amazing legend has begun! &1t;/p>

&1t;/p>
