In the Han Dynasty, there were many people who began to be poor and destitute, but in the end they were mixed up like people. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info such as Han Xin, Chen Ping. But among the celebrities of the Han Dynasty, Chen Tang seems to be the first to live by begging? Chen Tang thought: I can't mix up in the local area, so let's change it: Chang'an, the capital!

After Chen Tang came to Chang'an, with his knowledge, he finally found a legitimate job - Taiguan Offering Food. This is a petty official who walks around in the Inner Dynasty, no matter what, it is not easy to drift in Beijing, and it is very good to have a place to settle as soon as he comes.

Soon, Chen Tang met a friend. The friend has a lot of background: Zhang Anshi's grandson Zhang Bo!

Zhang Bo said to Chen Tang, "With your talent, it's a pity to run errands in the Inner Dynasty." I'll recommend it to you, change to a decent job" Zhang Bo recommended Chen Tang to Liu Zheng. Soon, the results came down. Very unexpected: Chen Tang was not promoted, but was called to report to prison!

When Zhang Bo heard this, he was immediately stupid. According to the rules of the time, if the recommended person has a problem and is arrested, the recommender will also be implicated! But Chen Tang just borrowed other people's money before and didn't pay it back, and he didn't see any crimes?

The situation is like this: Chen Tang was waiting for the promotion notice from above, and his father died suddenly. According to the rules, when a parent dies, no matter what is a big event, he must go home to mourn. But Chen Tang finally looked forward to a promotion, and decided to gamble and hide that he would not go home for the funeral. Unexpectedly, before he got the position, he was found out by the relevant departments, and he was mourned and couldn't run, and he simply fell into the eyes of the officials. This is called deception, not keeping filial piety, other crimes are easy to say, if the person who commits such a mistake does not put him in prison, then it is not called the Han Dynasty of 'ruling the world with filial piety'.

After Chen Tang was imprisoned, Zhang Bo also had to bear the corresponding responsibility for recommending Chen Tang. The punishment given to Zhang Bo above is: cut 200 households!

But before the fiefdom was cut, Zhang Bo died, and the punishment for him was equivalent to a vain punishment. But Chen Tang was not imprisoned in vain, as soon as he was released from prison, someone immediately recommended him to the above, so that Chen Tang became an envoy to foreign countries. Soon because of his excellent work, he was promoted to deputy lieutenant of the Western Regions.

During the reign of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, the Western Regions Protectorate was set up in the Western Regions, and Zheng Ji was the first Protector of the Western Regions, officially bringing the Western Regions under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty government. Now, Zhi Zhishan defeated the Wusun State and once again entrenched in the Western Regions to be the boss, no matter from which point of view, the Han Dynasty must fight him, and it makes sense to send troops, but when to fight, it is not up to Chen Tang to decide. Because Chen Tang is only the second-in-command, he also has a boss: Gan Yanshou, the protector and commander of the Western Regions!

But Gan Yanshou didn't squeak, Chen Tang had to take the initiative to speak, "The countries of the Western Regions are naturally afraid of the Huns. Now Zhi Zhishan Yu has taken the Wusun Kingdom, and the next one is the Dawan Kingdom. If we sit idly by, in a few years, the Western Regions will not be ours. We should strike first. Mobilize all our Tuntian soldiers, plus the rest of Wusun, and directly attack Zhizhishan in the newly built city. He is not well guarded and easy to attack, so it will be a great achievement to take advantage of this to cut off the head of Zhi Zhishan Yu and present it to the imperial court."

Gan Yanshou also thinks that what Chen Tang said is reasonable. However, he said, "We should first give a report to the central authorities, and then send troops after approval." This is a procedure and a procedure. The question was how long it took to go back and forth in a letter of transportation? This is not the most terrible, the most terrible thing is that the book is sent to Chang'an, and the emperor has to hold a meeting to discuss it. At this time, too long has passed since the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the ministers of Chang'an have never advocated raising troops to conquer the Western Regions. What is the use of saying that it costs people and money, and that if you take it, you can't farm or live in it?

So the final result of the discussion is likely to be: oppose sending troops! In this way, he could only watch the Western Regions being slowly swallowed by Zhi Zhidanyu...

But in fact, there are two reasons why Chen Tang wants to send troops as soon as possible: before Zhizhi completely eats Wusun State, he unites the remnants of Wusun and attacks the Xiongnu, which is only one of the reasons. Another reason is a secret that has been buried in Chen Tang's heart for many years: he longs for the day to fight on the battlefield, make achievements, and get ahead. For this day, Chen Tang has waited too long, too long!

Chen Tang said to Gan Yanshou, "Report first, it is indeed in line with the procedure." The question is, how many of the Chang'an Zhongqing are discerning? What if they don't agree to send troops"

Chen Tang was stunned when he said this. Oh, what to do? So, Gan Yanshou, who was thinking about things, turned out to be sick...

And when Chen Tang saw Gan Yanshou bedridden, he came up with a genius solution: Jiao Zhao sent troops! Just do it! Chen Tang pretended to pass on the holy decree and requisitioned troops from the countries of the Western Regions, as well as the Han army stationed in Tuntian, Cheshi State.

The news of the movement was uploaded to Gan Yanshou's ears. Gan Yanshou was shocked, immediately jumped out of bed, and went straight to Chen Tang. Is Gan Yanshou a real illness or a feigned illness? It looks weird.

But Chen Tang didn't have the energy to speculate about that boring thing. When Gan Yanshou just opened his mouth to stop the troops, suddenly a thunderclap sounded on a sunny day, which shook him stupid! Chen Tang pressed his sword and roared at Gan Yanshou, "The army has been assembled, do you kid want to destroy the plan" Chen Tang roared so loudly that Gan Yanshou couldn't help but faint! Hereof, Who's the boss? It seems that I am willing to prolong my life, right? Since I am the boss, how dare this kid scold me?

But now, Gan Yanshou has been pulled into the water by Chen Tang, and he can only play with him. In this battle, only victory is allowed, not defeat!

In extraordinary times, with extraordinary strength, doing extraordinary things is called an extraordinary person. There is no doubt that Chen Tang is an extraordinary person! He held Gan Yanshou hostage and gathered more than 40,000 allied troops from various countries in the Western Regions.

However, before the army set off, Chen and Gan left a way back for themselves: they played to Chang'an, explaining that they would not grant the order of the monarch outside. The situation is critical, and I can't wait for the emperor's approval, so I have to cut it first and then play...

In winter, the coalition forces were divided into six teams and marched in two ways. The three teams took the south road, crossed the green ridge, and passed through the Dawan country; Gan Yanshou and Chen Tangqin led the other three teams from Wensu Country, took the North Road, passed through Wusun Country, and arrived at Kangju Country!

When the Han army just walked to the west of Khotan, it was encountering the vice king of Kangju Guo Bao Khotan led thousands of cavalry to attack the east of Chigu City, the capital of Wusun State, plundered a large number of people and animals, and on the way back triumphantly, the vice king of Kangju found the Han army walking in front of him. As a result, Vice King Kangju attacked the Han army from behind. Under the sneak attack, the Han army lost the first battle.

But Chen Tang immediately turned around and went to settle accounts with Vice King Kangju. In this battle, Chen Tang won a complete victory. 460 people were killed, 470 people were recaptured, and countless horses, cattle, and sheep were returned, and they were returned to the king of Wusun Kingdom. and captured the noble man of Khotan, Inu poison.

The army continued to move forward, and soon entered the territory of the Kangju country. Chen Tang ordered, and the army rested in place. At the same time, military discipline is strictly enforced, and burning, killing, and looting are not allowed.

King Kangju lured the wolf into the house, and Zhi Zhishan occupied the nestle. The nobles of Kangju were divided internally, and there were not a few people who were towards the Han Dynasty. Before the siege, Chen Tang decided to meet with the opposition leaders in Kangju's country. Chen Tang and Tu Mo met, drank wine, and made a covenant.

Then the Han army continued forward, and at a distance of 60 miles from Shan Yu City, Chen Tang captured a prisoner of Kangjuguo: Tu Mo's subordinate Kai Mou, and asked him to be his guide.

The next day, the Han army continued to advance for 30 miles and then set up camp. At this time, the envoy of Zhizhi Shan Yu came, and as soon as he saw the Han army, he pretended to be stupid and asked, "May I ask the eldest brother, you have come all the way to Kangju country, what are you doing?"

The Han envoy also pretended to be stupid, "Earlier, Zhi Zhishan Yu seemed to have told our emperor: You have a bad environment here, and you can't stay anywhere, so you really want to surrender to the Han Dynasty." Our emperor sent us all the way to meet us. I could have driven directly to the city, but I was afraid that Shan Yu would be frightened, so I specially garrisoned the army here, and prepared to send someone to inform you, but I didn't expect you to come first."

Hun envoy: "Oh, so that's what happened?" Then I'll go back and report the situation to Shan Yu."

In fact, when Gan Yanshou and Chen Tang drove their troops into the Kangju border, Zhi Zhishan knew that something was wrong. However, he also came up with a clever trick: drag! Zhi Zhishan thought that the Han army was on an expedition and could not afford to fight a protracted war. If you hold Chen Tang and don't give him an excuse to go to war, wait until the Han army can't supply food, and want to fight? See you on the battlefield!

Drag one day counts as one day; As long as he drags him out for a year and a half, let alone a war, the Han army may not have to go to war. At that time, maybe the Western Regions was their graveyard, and most of them died of hunger instead of thirst... Wonderful, wonderful!

As for how to drag it? Zhi Zhi's method was to let the envoys run around on both sides, talk about some irrelevant details, and work blindly. In this way, the negotiations were discussed several times, and there was no real progress.

At this time, Chen Tang finally discovered Zhi Zhi Shan Yu's trick. What kind of person is Chen Tang? On the battlefield, there is no most cunning, only more cunning. Chen Tang will immediately tell Zhi Zhishan Yu with the facts: Who is the more cunning person!

Zhizhi thought that more than 40,000 people of the Han army came all the way, and they must have wanted to clean him up, but they thought of dragging people to death? It's okay to drag it out, but the key is that Chen Tangtong doesn't agree and cooperates. Chen Tang didn't bother to speak, he only answered with actions!

The reason why Chen Tang saw the conspiracy of Zhizhi Shan Yu was because the Han envoys ran away several times, but they couldn't see a person with a head and face coming to meet them. This is obviously a fool, Zhizhi wants to drag the Han army to death. In that case, let's fool together!

On this day, Chen Tang summoned the Xiongnu envoy to the front and scolded loudly, "We have come all the way, we have been waiting for so long, the food is almost finished, I am afraid it is not enough to eat on the way back, you Shan Yu has not even sent a person of sufficient level to meet us, what does he want to do" The food is almost gone, this information is very important. Chen Tang deliberately told Shan Yu that there was only one purpose: to use this as bait to stabilize Zhi Zhi Shan Yu and let him take the initiative to go out of the city to challenge. At that time, I couldn't do it without fighting!

You must know: On this expedition, Chen Tang did not come out to blow the wind, but came to find a fight. If you don't fight and don't kill people, you can't make a name for yourself and make a name for yourself. So he had to lure Zhi Zhishan into taking the bait... And just as Chen Tang expected, the big fish took the bait!

The next day, the Han army continued to advance and stopped at a distance of 3 miles from the city. From a distance, I saw colorful flags fluttering in the city, and soldiers in full armor could be faintly seen patrolling back and forth. Under the city, the Hun soldiers were exercising, and the murderous atmosphere was permeating. At the two corners of Shan Yu City, the Xiongnu have laid out a fish scale array...

Everything is ready, all you need is shouting and fighting! More than 100 Hun cavalry, who were maneuvering under the city, attacked first. At the same time, the Hun soldiers in the city also shouted loudly and shouted to the Han army. The tone is particularly arrogant, shouting "If there is a seed, let the horse come"

More than 100 Hun cavalry rushed towards the Han army camp. However, when they were about to rush in front of the Han army, they were all so frightened that they reined in their horses! It turned out that Chen Tang had already prepared. The Han army's strong crossbows have all been loaded with arrows and are aiming at them...

Come on, see how fast your saber is, or how fast our arrows are? The Hun cavalry was afraid. They were stunned for a moment, and immediately turned around and withdrew!

As soon as the Hun soldiers withdrew, Chen Tang ordered the crossbow troops to go out of the camp with crossbows to chase after them. They chased Shan Yu to the city and immediately fired arrows at the Hun soldiers who were exercising under the city. The Huns could only retreat to the city, closing the city and not leaving...

At this time, Chen Tang divided the coalition army into three parts. Some of the caves were dug to block the shooting holes of the opponents in the city; Some carry shields in front to protect the crossbow troops; The last part is the crossbow unit, which is responsible for shooting the Huns in the city...

After arranging all this, Gan Yanshou and Chen Tang issued the order for a general attack, "Everyone is in place, everything is called by the sound of drums." As soon as the drum sounded, he immediately pounced on the city"
