Chapter 256: Tian Wei's gaffe

The royal car of the Son of Heaven descended on the border and the movement was very large, Lang Zhong ordered Shi Jian to lead three thousand Lang guards to defend tightly, and the 10,000 elite soldiers carefully selected in the southern army were used as the second layer of escort troops, and 20,000 cavalry of the Northern Army were also transferred along the way to rush, and the nearby river valley woods were like plowing the ground to search several times. ○

Cao Shi personally went out to welcome twenty miles, and obtained the qualification to participate in the same car to show his favor, and sitting in the emperor's royal car with the Son of Heaven has always been the highest courtesy, which shows the importance that the Son of Heaven attaches to the victory of this battle.

The royal car walked very slowly, the royal car marched slowly in the face of envy and reverence, the soldiers of the three armies admired the general of the chariot and cavalry very much, this battle beat the Huns to lose their armor and abandon the armor, not only plundered all the grain and grass people lost in the border counties, but also earned a lot of cattle and sheep in vain.

Since the founding of the country, in addition to Taizu Gao Emperor Liu Bang led troops to the vicinity, there has never been a second emperor to Yanmen to inspect, the people are very excited about the arrival of the Son of Heaven, the cheers along the way continue to bow and bow, the Son of Heaven nodded to the crowd outside the window, although it is not clear through the barriers, but the emperor still feels the enthusiasm of the people.

"Emperor Taizongwen did not claim to be the emperor before he toured the northern Xinjiang many times, Jianzuo ascended the throne and toured thousands of miles of rivers and rivers homeland, except for a few more dangerous border counties have not been to, the Han family has almost been stepped on again, the first emperor Gaozongjing Emperor was the crown prince when he toured Guanzhong, said that after the emperor destroyed the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu, he had patrolled the counties of Guandong and Hebei to observe the people's feelings, and now I have been on the throne for more than four years, and I should also tour thousands of miles of rivers and mountains."

Liu Che was in a very good mood and kept saying uplifting words. The accompanying civil and military officials discussed with great interest, and the topic could not avoid the decline of the Xiongnu. The rare opportunity of the prosperity of the Han Dynasty drew a different picture from their mouths. The Han army not only defeated the Xiongnu invasion, but also won the record of beheading nearly 10,000 people, as if everyone's morale rose in an instant.

Rising morale is a good thing, but with it comes a rise in blind optimism.

"Your Majesty, it's early now, and the weather is still cold in two or three months, so it's better for our army to attack the Huns in the north and destroy the Huns in one go."

"Go north to the Huns and destroy the Dragon City. Capture the single and let the flag of my Han family flutter in the North Sea. ”

When the Son of Heaven heard the suggestions of the ministers, he could be said to have smiled with his eyebrows, so that he did not explicitly say whether he would fight or not, but his posture was made.

Cao Shi swept over the ministers, the princes and Shangqing only came over with the servant Wang Pifang, the main general of the two armies of the north and south was still in Chang'an City, the prime minister Dou Ying and the imperial historian Zhang Ou did not come, and only the Taiwei Tian Wei was present for three kilometers, and most of the three princes and nine secretaries were the emperor's confidants and favorite ministers. The court's rejection and suppression of the princes was particularly obvious.

"General Che Cavalry said a few words, what do you think of the strategy of fighting the Huns?" A sharp voice woke Cao Shi from his contemplation, and when he turned his head, he saw that the Taiwei Tian Wei, who was closely following outside the imperial car, looked at him with a smile.

Fight the Huns in the north?

Cao Shi shook his head coldly to show disdain to answer. The generals who knew the soldiers and knew how to do it were very shy about going north to fight the Huns, including Li Guang, the Taishou of Shanggu County, who liked to call himself a flying general. Chen Wu, the Marquis of Jianpu, asked Emperor Wen of Han to fight the Xiongnu but was also politely refused, and Zhou Yafu, the Marquis of Tiao, did not dare to say that he went north to fight the Xiongnu.

The Han family was ill-prepared. Most of the people who said that they went north to fight the Huns and capture Shan Yu were kicked in the head by a donkey. Less often than not, it is ill-intentioned.

Seeing that Cao Shi didn't answer, Tian Wei laughed and said, "What? The general of the chariot is scared? ”

The servant Wang Pifang came over and interjected: "The Taiwei is serious!" ”

Tian Wei pursed his lips and snorted coldly, and he was unforgiving: "It is good for the general to make great contributions, but what should be said about the hard work of disobeying the edict of the Son of Heaven and destroying the siege of Ma Yi before he made meritorious service?" ”

"Ahem!"

The Son of Heaven was displeased, and said in his heart that Tian Wei really didn't open any pot, knowing that the general of the Che Cavalry had made a great contribution to the Han family, he didn't say nice things but threatened to punish him, as if he didn't put him as the emperor in his eyes, and pushed the emperor out for his own selfishness as a stepping stone, and he wanted to fake the emperor's hand to deal with Cao Shi.

Facts have proved that his idea is right, Tian Wei did not put the face of the Son of Heaven in his heart, at least Tian Wei felt that with his sister Queen Mother Wang Huan, his position as the third prince would not have to worry about falling, and it was very cost-effective to do his best to abolish the general of the Che Cavalry, at most he would offend the emperor fiercely, and the Son of Heaven would have to take care of family affection and face lightly.

But he forgot that Cao Shi was not a simple military general: "I heard that the strategy of the siege of Mayi, Taiwei contributed a lot, the Son of Heaven proposed a plan for total annihilation, and Taiwei began to improve the details, what I said is not wrong, right?" ”

"That's right, the siege of Ma Yi was personally inquired about by the Son of Heaven, and I presided over the grand plan designed, is the general of the chariot cavalry envious?"

"I don't envy it at all, I think the captain is pitiful."

"You say I'm pathetic?"

Tian Wei almost jumped up from his mount as if his butt was on fire: "General Cao, what do you mean by telling me clearly?" Otherwise, I will ask Your Majesty to cure you for a crime of disrespect! ”

Liu Che, the son of heaven, wanted to raise his hand to stop it, but his hand was stretched out halfway and suddenly put it back, it is undeniable that the mutual attack of the two powerful ministers is what he is happy to see, a certain force in the court does not meet the emperor's expectations, and the concentricity and harmony between the upper and lower levels are not satisfactory, only the grass hall is divided and forced to form a ball in the hands of the emperor is the best solution.

Starting from the founding emperor Liu Bang, several generations of emperors have been trying this set of imperial techniques, and only Taizu Gao Emperor Liu Bang has succeeded in realizing the founding of the country for nearly 70 years, Liu Che's means of operating the court are not mature, he hopes to retain part of the power of the princes, at least not to let a certain party be too powerful, consider making repeated decisions and wait to see, so that the two sides can not resolve the contradiction and then come forward to appease.

Cao Shi didn't pay attention to Tian Wei's accusation at all, and turned his face to the Son of Heaven and said: "The Taiwei is not familiar with military affairs, and the siege of Mayi is like a three-year-old bait to build a city with soil, fortunately, some ministers found out that the situation was wrong in time, and led the army to attack the main camp of the Huns in time to contain the movement of the Hun army, otherwise the siege of Mayi will become a calm retreat of the Huns." ”

Tian Wei jumped to his feet angrily, but the Son of Heaven didn't care: "What did the general of the Che Cavalry say?" ”

"The Huns have been crisscrossing the grassland for decades, and they don't understand the superb skills of the art of war, but after all, they have the basic judgment of the steppe wolves, and the 200,000 Hun cavalry were invited by the Mayi merchant Nie Yi to bypass the plains and cross the valley to raid the city of Mayi, along the way the chariots and horses followed the slow movement is great, the Han herdsmen saw that the Huns were all scattered, and it stands to reason that the local Han army guards should at least set off beacons for help, and the Han army should also come out to intercept, but where is our Han army?"

"Wait in the ambush circle!"

Liu Che suddenly realized, no wonder he waited left and right did not wait for the Huns to enter the ambush circle, but heard the information that the Huns' marching speed was slowing down, it seems that the original siege of Mayi was too hasty, and the Huns were easy to perceive the movement of the siege, fortunately, Cao Shi broke away from the ambush circle and took the initiative to attack the defenders of the Hun camp to resolve the crisis.

The three princes and nine qing wanted to interject a lot, but they were forced by the gaze of the Son of Heaven and did not dare to mix in Chinese, Tian Wei and Cao Shi fought viciously as immortals, both of them have another layer of identity, Tian Wei is the uncle of the Son of Heaven, Cao Shi is the brother-in-law of the Son of Heaven, ordinary Shangqing does not have that backstage and does not want to interject at all, Zhou Yang Hou Tian Sheng wanted to help his brother speak, was held by Gaihou Wang Xin and resolutely refused to go.

Joking about three and letting two elders bully a junior, winning is not glorious and losing is embarrassing, Tian Wei is understandable for doing that is a factor of political fighting, and it is too inappropriate for Tingwei Tian Sheng to interject, it is easy to be misinterpreted as Wang Tian and the meritorious princes tearing their faces, and the result is not good for others and themselves, and it does not meet the expectations of the Queen Mother Wang Wan at all.

Tian Wei snorted and sneered a few times: "What General Che Cavalry said is wrong, right?" You give a high-sounding reason for withdrawing from the ambush circle, but how do you explain why you don't want to withdraw without saying goodbye? The Son of Heaven is sitting in the city of Mayi, can't you send a letter? I don't think you have the heart! ”

Cao Shi still ignored it.

"The minister's withdrawal from the ambush circle is a last resort, although His Majesty sits in Mayi is very close, but the messenger is not short to send the message back and forth, a letter of a few hundred words is difficult to explain the reason, Your Majesty has such a general as the captain Tian Wei who does not understand military affairs, the minister is really worried that the letter can not be allowed in time to miss the fighter, in case someone obstructs the action in the car, the minister can only wait in place and watch the Huns withdraw."

"Humph! It is useless for you to say so many words, and it cannot cover up your mistake of using troops without telling you. ”

Cao Shi finally turned his head to look at Tian Wei, and mocked with a few scrutinizing eyes: "Taiwei probably doesn't know a word, he will not be subject to the orders of the king outside, if every general has to follow the king's order to guide the battle, there will be no outstanding military masters, there will be no Qin sweep ** to dominate the world, let alone the Han family's record of destroying Qin in the west and destroying Chu in the east, Your Majesty really favors you so much to let you take charge of the army, your great luck, the great misfortune of the soldiers of the three armies." ”

"You...... You despicable villain, treacherous and cunning, you deliberately framed me! ”

Tian Wei angrily scolded, his gaffe angered many Shangqing, it was very inappropriate to curse and attack his colleagues in front of the Son of Heaven, Cao Shi stepped on the red line to put down Wei Xuan, and he was jealous of hundreds of officials.

After a few years of precipitation, Cao Shi's temper is much better than before, and he has been attacked by Tian Wei several times to show that his strength is extraordinary, although in the end he couldn't help but say a few prickly words It is understandable, Tian Wei's groundless accusations seem to be very level, and the Shangqing who are watching coldly began to consider whether it is necessary to follow Tian Wei all the way to the black.
