Chapter 17 Zhu Cao Zhongzhong

As soon as Huo Quai's words came out, Zhao Ponu said jokingly: "This is just the beginning, when we destroy King Zuoxian, I think Brother Ah Guang can also be crowned a marquis!" ”

"Guang is still young, and the battle with the Huns still depends on the generals, and I am just acting according to my brother's orders, General Zhao should not make fun of me anymore!" Huo Guang hurriedly said, but he attributed the deployment of three thousand cavalry to Huo Quai's arrangement, and he himself just acted according to the plan.

As soon as Huo Guang explained this, the generals in the tent looked relieved. Originally, everyone was surprised and unbelievable when they heard about Huo Guang's performance, Huo Guang pushed the matter on Huo Quai's illness like this, and these people felt that it was nothing. Isn't this a sign that the champion Hou will give credit to his younger brother? Of course, no one would say it, even if everyone thought so.

Huo Quzhi glanced at Huo Guang meaningfully, and didn't explain anything, just hummed slightly, and then ordered some deployments, and then the generals left to deal with military affairs.

After everyone left, only Huo Guang and Huo Qubing were left in the big tent. Huo Guang knew that the reason why his brother didn't ask him to leave was that he had to say something important to himself at this time.

"Ah Guang, no matter what the final situation of the entire Battle of Mobei is, I'm afraid that my brother can only fight for you this military merit!" Sure enough, when there were only two brothers, Huo Quzhi said without the slightest concealment.

Just heard Huo Quzhi say this, Huo Guang didn't react for a while. As soon as Huo Guang wanted to ask, Huo Quzhi stopped Huo Guang with a wave of his hand, and then continued: "I hope you don't resent being a brother, with your talents, maybe you can be crowned a marquis in just one battle, but after all, you are too young, and becoming famous at a young age not only does not benefit you, but also has a big impact on your future development." ”

When Huo Guang heard this, he immediately understood that he naturally understood the truth that Mu Xiu would be destroyed by Lin Feng, and the growth route that Huo Guang himself had formulated for himself was not to be too public, the reason why he was in a hurry was just to justify himself in the army and help the three thousand cavalry to win more with less, and another important reason was that the situation was grim at that time, and Huo Guang was also forced to do so.

"The elder brother has good intentions, and the younger brother understands it. In fact, I didn't intend to be in the limelight, but the situation was grim at the time, and I was in the dark in the future. Huo Guang knew that Huo Quzhi really had good intentions for him, and he could even be said to be very caring, and even Huo Guang's future development was taken into account bit by bit.

"Well, I see that your words and deeds are quite tactful, and your actions are also measured, as long as you are careful, your future achievements will definitely be higher than that of your brother." Ya * Wen * Yan * Love * Shou * Fa " Huo Quzhi really likes this younger brother, but when he finished saying this, he also felt a little inappropriate. Because Huo Qubing has the merit of opening up the territory and expanding the territory, and his status is the top existence among the different surnames in the Han Dynasty, except for the founding of several kings with different surnames, it is impossible to surpass Huo Quzhi in his achievements.

"A different surname? Is my little brother really going to have such a day? If there is such a day, even I will not be in vain! Huo Quzhi could only think about it in his heart, but he couldn't deny the huge temptation of being a king with a different surname. ( Pingnan Romance)

"Brother, I have something unclear, and I want to ask my brother to make it clear!" Huo Guang also calmed down from the joy of asking for a seal now, but after calming down, he found a problem.

"We brothers have something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Huo Quzhi stretched out his hand and patted Huo Guang lightly on the shoulder twice, Huo Guang could really feel Huo Quzhi's care and honesty towards him.

"Since my brother doesn't want me to be in the limelight, why do you want to write a book for me this time. In fact, it is completely possible not to mention my existence, as long as I take revenge on Lu Zhi's merits. Huo Guang was really puzzled by this matter, since Huo Qubing didn't want to be too popular, why did he still ask for a seal with great fanfare?

"So that's it? Ah Guang, do you know Qin General Wang Qian?" Huo Quzhi looked at Huo Guang with a smile, and at this time he also put away his usual serious expression, looking kind and pleasant.

"Brother is Wang Qian, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States? The younger brother only heard his name, and asked his brother for advice. "I do know about Wang Jian and Huo Guang, but as he said, he only knows that there is such a thing, and he doesn't know what Huo Quzhi wants to say.

Huo Quzhi took two steps and sat down in front of the desk, and at the same time motioned for Huo Guang to take a seat. Then he spoke: "Wang Jian helped the Qin State to destroy the Six Kingdoms, and brought five or six hundred thousand soldiers, such a general with heavy troops, Qin Shi Huang didn't have any suspicions about him?" However, whenever this Wang Jian went out on an expedition, he always had to take the opportunity to ask the king of Qin for a field blockade. Qin Shi Huang not only did not dislike Wang Qian, but also trusted him more and more, and treated him with courtesy. You know why? ”

Huo Guang didn't expect Huo Quzhi to say such a thing, but this truth is easy to understand. Huo Qubing was undoubtedly telling Huo Guang that he Huo Qubing was now in a similar situation to Wang Qian, and asking for an official for himself was just a means of self-defilement, so that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would not only not be disgusted, but would trust Huo Qubing more. At this time, Huo Guang finally understood why the Huo Quzhi he knew was a little different from the young man who became famous and arrogant in the history books.

"When my brother said this, I remembered that 'Wen Zhonghou' also had the practice of being greedy and self-defiled." Huo Guang really learned a lot of things here in Huo Quai, especially how to do a good job in the relationship between his subordinates and the king. And Huo Guang said that the 'Marquis of Wenzhong' is Xiao He, the founder of the early Han Dynasty. In the early Han Dynasty, Xiao He had to do things to encroach on the people's fertile land and defile himself in order to protect Mingze!

However, Huo Guang always felt that there was something hidden in Huo Quai's doing this, which he didn't understand, but he hadn't discovered it for a while.

"Hehe, as a brother, I am learning from Wang Jian and Xiao Xiangguo. But that's just one of them! Huo Quzhi smiled, he also felt that talking to Huo Guang was happy, and he didn't have to hide anything in front of his brother, the key was that Huo Guang was transparent at all, and it was easy and pleasant to talk to him.

Huo Guang sighed in his heart: "Sure enough...... That's one thing, then there's really a second. “

"I don't know why my brother did this, but my younger brother is stupid and I really don't know!" Huo Guang also had to be humble, although the experience of his soul was longer than Huo Qu's illness, but after all, the status of the two was very different, and some problems could not be considered at his own level.

"One is for myself, and the other is for you. In the future, you will also enter the court, and His Majesty the Emperor is eloquent and strategic, so you must not think carefully about Your Majesty in the future. What we do today. Even if you don't report it for your brother, do you think Your Majesty doesn't know? Huo Quai's words woke up the person in the dream, and Huo Guang felt that he was really too young and his level was too low. Only Huo Quzhi can consider many of these things so comprehensively, and Huo Quzhi's arrangement can also show that he really understands the way of people.

"My younger brother has been taught, and I can follow my brother, and I will have fewer detours in this life." Huo Guang also complimented Huo Quai, but this was not a simple compliment, but also Huo Guang's heartfelt gratitude.

"You don't have to be too restrained, with me and my uncle here, as long as you don't do anything rebellious, we will bear it for you if something happens. I don't have to be afraid to act! Huo Quzhi looked at Huo Guang with resolute eyes, although he left Huo Guang with the intention to teach, but because of Huo Quzhi's character, he is also a person who has just made a decision to kill and kill, and after education, he has to give Huo Guang confidence, this sentence can be regarded as cheering Huo Guang up, so that he will not have to be afraid of doing things everywhere in the future.

Huo Guang especially noticed that Huo Quzhi's last words were 'me and my uncle'. This naturally refers to him and Wei Qing, which also made Huo Guang affirm that the Wei Huo family is really in the same breath, no wonder history says that the two families of the 'Wei Huo family' are not separated from each other. It seems that the rumors of Huo Qu's disagreement with Wei Qing after visiting the hussar general in some wild histories are all false.

This conversation between the two brothers can be regarded as a heart-to-heart conversation, and Huo Guang has indeed learned a lot. In the following period of time, it seemed relatively calm, and the army of Zuo Xianwang retreated, and after the previous battle, the Han army was also resting nearby. 、

However, during this relatively peaceful day, Huo Guang also solved a doubt in his heart, that is, about scouts. It turns out that this period was not without scouts, but the scouts of this period are very different from later generations. First of all, the number of scouts in this period was still very small, and it did not become a normal system in the army, and scouts were only the marquis leading the troops, and some of the personal soldiers served as lookouts.

That is to say, scouts are often only available to the commander of an army, and these scouts are only complex observation of the battlefield, and they are not scattered like later generations to cover the dozens of miles of the army's action.

The army rested for half a month, and it was not until half a month later that the 50,000 army under Huo Quai's command started again. Originally, during this period, Huo Guang also wanted to tell Huo Qubing about the scout system in later generations, and then promote it to the Han army, but in the end, he just thought about it.

Of course, the main reason for this is that Huo Guang wants to keep a low profile, and the other aspect is that Huo Guang feels that the development of history naturally has its own laws, and some new things will naturally appear when the time comes, and even if he announces the perfect scout system in advance, maybe it may not play a big role in the end.

Although nothing major happened in the past half a month, there was something very important to Huo Guang. That is, the day before the army started, a messenger from Chang'an arrived. And what this messenger brought was not an important military situation, but a holy decree, a holy decree about Huo Guang's reward.

Just the time when this holy decree arrived, Huo Guang felt incredible. Because the Han army is now located almost half a month away from Chang'an's non-stop back and forth, that is to say, Huo Quai's illness asked to seal the book to Chang'an, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty immediately issued an order, and then sent it directly without stopping.

When Huo Guang heard Emperor Wu of Han's reward for himself, he was a little surprised and at a loss. Because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did reward Huo Guang for his official position, but this official position is too worthy of scrutiny.

Because the official positions given to Huo Guang by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty should actually be two official positions. In the holy decree, it is said that Huo Guang is 'Zhu Cao Shizhong', in fact, during this period, Zhu Cao and Shi Zhong should be two official positions, and both of them are added officials, which is not a real position!
