In the summer, Liu Che ordered Huo Qu to go abroad to collect debts. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Liu Che believes that last year's debt and interest are coming back. But the interest before last year is not enough!

Therefore, Liu Che sent two more troops to attack the Xiongnu: Huo Qubing and Gongsun Ao led tens of thousands of horsemen from Beidi County, and then attacked separately; Zhang Qian and Li Guang led their troops from Youbeiping County and also marched separately: Li Guang led 4,000 troops to attack the forward, and Zhang Qian led 10,000 cavalry to the rear.

Opportunities and challenges coexist. However, Li Guang's bad luck came again. Half of this bad luck is caused by objective factors; The other half is subjective. The so-called objective factor is that Li Guang unfortunately ran into the main force of the Xiongnu again. The other party was the 40,000 cavalry of King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu, while Li Guangcai had 4,000 troops, and the disparity in strength was extremely great; The subjective factor is: Li Guang ran too fast, while Zhang Qian ran too slowly. can only be regarded as Li Guang's bad luck. However, bad luck also has to be fought. Because 40,000 Hun cavalry had surrounded Li Guang from all sides.

In this situation, Li Guang seems to have returned to the battle of Guanshi eight years ago. At that time, he was captured alive and escaped death. This time, Li Guang, are you afraid?

If you're afraid, then it's not the real Li Guang! However, Li Guang's cavalry was really afraid. It is simply impossible to make a group of big living people face a strong enemy without fear! Li Guang is too familiar with war, and the so-called putting in the place of death and then rejuvenating is reserved for the army that is not afraid of death. If the brothers are afraid before the war starts, the battle will be lost!

Suddenly, the veteran Li Guang immediately thought of a solution. At that time, Li Guang's youngest son, Li Kang, also fought with the army.

Li Guang summoned Li Dang and assigned him a very difficult homework: ordered Li Dang to take dozens of brothers to run a lap in the Hun formation, and then run back smoothly, even if the task was completed.

Tiger fathers have no dog sons. Li Dang took the order, didn't say a word, and rushed out with his brother. Not long after, he returned. I counted the number of people, and one was not a lot.

Li Guang is quite satisfied with his son's results. Immediately afterwards, Li Guang pretended to be very confident, and shouted to the soldiers of the whole army, "The Huns are all paper tigers, there is nothing to fear." Please believe in our strength, as long as we are united, there is no battle that cannot be won" Li Guang's words made his four thousand brothers seem to have taken a reassuring pill. Since we have come to ask for debts, we must have the momentum of debtors. If you defeat yourself, you will defeat your enemy. In the past, Li Guang thought so; So is it now; In the future, he will still think so.

The war began. After Li Guanggang ordered the soldiers to set up a circle formation that was outward-facing and blocked on all sides, the attack of the Xiongnu began. The sky was full of flying arrows and shot towards Li Guang's military formation. Li Guang ordered the Han army to also launch a counterattack with flying arrows.

There are no trees, no hills, no burrows. For the arrows released by 40,000 people, it is conceivable that the rate of arrows shot by the soldiers of the Han army was much higher than that of the Huns. Sure enough, after the arrows were released this time, Li Guang lost more than half of his troops, which meant that Li Guang had less than 2,000 people left.

If he fights for the arrows again, Li Guang will definitely be doomed to the whole army. At this time, Li Guang made a surprising decision: stop firing arrows.

Li Guang had to stop firing arrows because they were running out of arrows. In any case, Li Guang had to hold out until Zhang Qian's more than 10,000 troops came to rescue him. So Li Guang ordered: All soldiers put arrows on their bows, and no arrows should be released without an order. Li Guang stopped, and the Huns also stopped. The battlefield temporarily returned to a terrible tranquility.

The Han soldiers looked pessimistically at Li Guang, who was slowly pulling open the rhubarb. This is a special giant bow with a long range and fierce power, as long as the opponent is hit by an arrow, it will immediately fall to the ground without help. Of course, this kind of big arrow must test arm strength and archery skills, and it is too suitable for Li Guang.

Shoot the man first and shoot the horse, and capture the thief first and capture the king. Li Guang locked his eyes on the generals of the Xiongnu. Li Guang's marksmanship is really not blown. He shot several people in succession. The Huns were horrified.

At this time, it was getting dark, and the Huns decided to make a truce. The Han soldiers watched the Hun cavalry slowly retreat, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. In fact, after this round, Li Guang's soldiers were already colorless. However, they were surprised to see that their leader, Li Guang, was still in high spirits and smiled casually. Li Guang's scene convinced the brothers.

We have reason to believe that Li Guang's demeanor is calm, and he is obviously suspected of being a showman. Because the real decisive battle is still tomorrow. He must leave his confidence to his subordinates, and he must hold on to the support of Zhang Qian's troops. If you want to gamble, you have to gamble to the last penny!

Sure enough, at dawn the next day, the fight broke out again. This time, the two sides faced each other, and the cavalry swung their swords and slashed at each other. After this round of fighting, the casualties were equal. Li Guang lost another half of his troops, which meant that he had less than a thousand soldiers left.

And at this moment, Zhang Qian's more than 10,000 troops finally arrived! As soon as Zhang Qian's troops arrived, King Zuoxian of the Huns saw that the opportunity was not good, and immediately slipped away. Li Guang finally survived to the end, and he won a heavy victory at a heavy price.

It's just that Zhang Qian, as the pioneer of the Silk Road and the first tour guide of the Han Dynasty, could he get lost and be late? It's kind of incredible. However, what I didn't expect was that at this time, the other person could not find his own person. This person is Gongsun Ao.

Huo Quzhi and Gongsun Ao made an appointment at the time and place of the rendezvous, but no one came. Huo Quzhi concluded: Gongsun Ao must be lost! So what to do? Huo Quai's decision was made immediately, without waiting for Gongsun Ao, he led the army into the enemy territory for more than 2,000 miles alone, target: Qilian Mountain (the Xiongnu called the sky for Qilian, so "Qilian Mountain" is today's mountain)

Huo Quzhi and Li Guang have a temper: dare to fight. But the difference is: Huo not only dares to fight, but also can fight. What's more: Huo's luck is always better than Lee's. In addition to this, Huo also has a piece of hardware that Li can't catch up with. That is: Huo Qubing led a special force, and its combat effectiveness was much higher than that of other generals. If you compare it further, I think there is one more thing that Li Guang can't catch up with Huo Qu's disease, and that is the sense of smell of war. Huo is like a rattlesnake in the desert, born with an instinct for induction. This instinct is something that no other species can have. And Huo Quzhi relies on this sensitive instinctive sense of smell to always find his opponent as he wishes...

In Huo Quzhi's view, war is like going out to sea to fish, and the real big fish will always be hidden in the deepest part of the sea. So he thinks: there must be big fish hidden deep on the back of Qilian Mountain. Walking from Longxi County to Qilian Mountain, the distance is not particularly close, but it is not particularly far. However, Huo Quzhi suddenly turned his head and chose an unusual route. Honestly, it's a detour. But it turned out: it was a detour worth the risk!

There is a problem with human beings, that is, habitual thinking. The Huns believed that if the Han army was coming, it must be a shortcut. Therefore, as long as you block the road and set up a block, and do a good job of vigilance, the Han army will not get any benefit.

But they were wrong. Huo Qubing actually used roundabout tactics, made a big circle, and attacked them from behind. The route taken by Huo Qubing is roughly as follows: cross the Yellow River in the west, cross Helan Mountain, go straight to the northwest, cross Jutingze, then turn southwest, pass through the Xiaoyue tribe, and then cast the net on the Tianshan Mountain!

When the Huns looked back at the iron net above their heads, it was already slow. Huo Quai's sword is stabbing at their hearts! In the second battle of Hexi, Huo Quai's results were still extremely brilliant: the capture of the Xiongnu Shan Huan and the two kings of the chieftain Tu; 2,500 people under the Xiongnu Xiangguo and Duwei surrendered; beheaded 30,200 people, and won more than 70 Xiao Wang.

So far, Huo Qubing has won two battles in a row. Won the biggest victory at the minimum cost, creating a rare miracle in the history of ancient Chinese warfare! The Huns lamented: Losing my Qilian Mountain (Tianshan Mountain) makes my six animals rest; The loss of my Yanzhi Mountain (Rouge Mountain) makes my women colorless.

The good news came, and Liu Che added 5,000 households to Huo Quai. His subordinate generals were just like Wei Qing's subordinate generals back then, and they were made marquis one after another: Gao Buzhi was the Marquis of Yiguan, the servant was mostly the Marquis of Huiqu, and Zhao Ponu was the Marquis of the subordinate. And the other three: Zhang Qian and Gongsun Ao, all lost their way and lost their lives and should be beheaded, and they all paid money to atone for their sins and were abolished as concubines. Although Li Guang lost more than half of his troops, he atonement for his sins by killing more with less, and although he was not a marquis, he finally kept his reputation.

In my opinion: fighting for the feudal lord has never been a real hero. True heroes are always fighting for national honor. The Huns have not been destroyed, why should they be at home? This is Huo Quzhi's lifelong pursuit. Since then, this voice has resounded in the sky above the Han Dynasty, stirring through the ages, and stretching endlessly...

Of course, Yi Zhi is not a man who eats white rice. After Huo Quai's withdrawal and return to China, he suddenly launched a retaliatory action. The Hun cavalry attacked Daijun and Yanmen County in two ways, killing and plundering hundreds of people.

In the summer, Liu Jian, the grandson of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty and the king of Jiangdu, committed suicide for his crimes. After the death of his father Liu Fei, Liu Jian hooked up with Liu Fei's beloved concubine Nao Ji and his own sister Zhengchen. A total of 35 innocent people were killed, designed for **. and together with his queen Chengguang, he asked Yue Wan to perform witchcraft and curse Liu Che. When Liu An and Liu Ci brothers rebelled, Liu Jian also privately cast weapons and privately engraved the emperor's jade seal, making preparations for the rebellion. At this time, Liu Jian chose to commit suicide, and Queen Chengguang and others abandoned the city and the country was removed.

In the summer, the king of Jiaodong sent an illness and died. Before Liu Jisheng, when Liu An and Liu Ci brothers rebelled, they also privately cast weapons and plotted rebellion. Therefore, when he died, he did not dare to appoint a son to succeed to the throne. But Liu Ji and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che's father was both Emperor Liu Qi of the Han Dynasty, and their mother was a sister. The relationship is naturally much closer than Liu Jian. So the king of Jiaodong is only temporarily closed for a year.

At this time, there were 15 princes and kings in the territory of the Han Dynasty: Liu Zhu, King of Chu (great-grandson of Liu Jiao), Liu Hu (Liu Changsun), King of Zichuan Liu Jian (Liu Feisun), King of Chengyang Liu Yan (Liu Fei's great-grandson, Liu Zhangsun), Liu Yi (Liu Heng's great-grandson, Liu Samsun), Liu Xiang, King of Liang (Liu Heng's great-grandson, Liu Wusun), Liu Pengli, King of Jidong (Liu Heng's great-grandson, Liu Wuzi), Liu Duan, King of Jiaoxi (Liu Qizi), Liu Pengzu (Liu Qizi), Liu Sheng, King of Zhongshan (Liu Qizi), Liu Shun, King of Changshan (Liu Qizi), Liu Kan, King of Hejian (Liu Qi's great-grandson, Liu Desun), Guangchuan Wang Liu Qi (Liu Qisun, Liu Yuezi), Lu Wang Liu Guang (Liu Qisun, Liu Yuzi), Changsha Wang Liu Yong (Liu Qisun, Liu Fazi). Compared with the 25 vassal states that had the most during the reign of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, 10 countries were expelled due to extinction or crimes: Qinghe, Jichuan, Shanyang, Jiyin, Yan, Qi, Huainan, Hengshan, Jiangdu, and Jiaodong.

Huo Quai's battle in Hexi, he traveled far away and swept away, and only less than three-tenths of the Huns in Hexi remained. The dead are buried deep in the ground, and the living are still trembling. So in the autumn, Liu Che suddenly received a report from Li Xi: saying that the two kings of the Xiongnu Hun and Xiu Tu were going to lead more than 40,000 people (claimed to be 100,000) to surrender to the Han Dynasty.

If the king of the Huns led hundreds or even thousands of people to surrender, Liu Che would not take it to heart. However, when Li Xi reported such a large number of people at once, people had to be more careful. Liu Che thinks: The Huns may be cheating?

There may be fraud, but a real surrender is not ruled out. Liu Che thought about it and decided to hand over the task of surrender to Huo Quai, and prepare for both: if the Huns really surrendered, they would take it back; If it is a fake surrender, don't blame Huo Quai's illness and be too ruthless.

In fact, the Xiongnu really surrendered this time. Why did the two kings surrender? Mainly because of Huo Qu's disease!

In the battle of Hexi, the Xiongnu suffered heavy losses. Yi Zhi was heartbroken, so he was ready to summon the evil king and the king of Hutu to go back and kill him! Unexpectedly, the second king is not a fool. Knowing that Yi Zhixian was going to kill them, the two of them decided to surrender to the Han Dynasty, and first keep the head on their necks!

Since it is a true descent, of course it is a good thing. However, there are many good things, and the second king actually had an accident halfway through! The reason is that King Hutu regretted it. The reason why he regretted it should be for nothing else, but for the army of tens of thousands in front of him. King Hugh Tu's mood at that time can be described in such a sentence: You can be a man, but you can't be so useless?

I think that back then, we risked a single iron horse to break the Han side, and even Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, had to be committed to being angry and bribing the princess and local products every year. At that time, we were so beautiful, we wanted to grab the east and the east, and we wanted to grab the west and grab the west. Come when you want, go when you want. I didn't expect this good day to be like this sky full of flying sand, and it turned yellow overnight. Now that you can't beat others, it doesn't matter, but you still fall into the rate of more than 40,000 people who took the initiative to send them to Chang'an? Incredible, incredible!
