In the Weiyang Palace, Liu Che was looking at the topographic map of the Huns, guessing the battle situation of the attack on the Hun army, since the 100,000 army went out to conquer the Huns, Liu Che had not slept a peaceful sleep, and at this time a teenage child walked in angrily and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......"

As soon as Liu Che turned around and saw a familiar figure, he showed a smile that he hadn't seen in a few days and said, "Ouch, I've come back from my illness, what's going on in Ganquan Palace, has the project started?"

The person who came was Huo Quai, who had just rushed back from Ganquan Palace, and was sent by Liu Che to serve as the supervisor of the construction of a palace during this time, and when he heard Liu Che ask like this, he replied a little unhappily: "Your Majesty, are you deliberately supporting me?"

Liu Che pretended to be confused and said, "What is deliberate, I don't understand." ”

"Oh, Your Majesty, my uncle went on an expedition to fight the Huns, why didn't you let me go with you, you promised last time. ”

Liu Che deliberately showed a look of surprise and said: "Hahaha, I forgot about this, I should be punished, I ignored this matter, my fault." In fact, this is Liu Che's deliberate, how can a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child be able to go to the battlefield, and Huo Quzhi is indeed Liu Che's favorite child, giving him enough space and freedom in the Weiyang Palace, so that he can grow up in the direction he envisions unrestrainedly, and he will definitely be able to become a capable officer in the fight against the Huns in the future, but now he is too young to take risks, so Liu Che tried his best to shirk the request to go to the Huns.

"Then, then, I'm going to lead my brothers to chase after my uncle. ”

"Oh, it's late, I'm afraid the battle is over now, although the scale of this expedition is grand, but what I ask for is high efficiency, now that it has been more than twenty days, you should know the speed of the cavalry best. ”

"Alas," Huo Quzhi said with his fist slapping his chest fiercely, "I missed another good show." ”

"Don't worry about going to the sick, isn't it just going to the battlefield, I promise to give you a chance, and there are many opportunities, as short as a few months, as long as a year or two, I will definitely continue to encircle and suppress the Huns, let you lead your brother to go up for a good walk, I am afraid that you will not succeed in your achievements." ”

"Okay, then I'll go to training and wait for Your Majesty's will. When the time comes, I will definitely do it to show His Majesty. ”

Before he got sick, a messenger trotted in and said, "Your Majesty, report to the border customs battle, report to the border customs battle." ”

"Well, show it to me. Liu Che quickly took the battle report in the hand of the confessor, read it carefully twice, and laughed out loud, "Hahahaha, it is really worthy of my Zhongqing, great victory, great victory, quickly send someone to take my seal letter 800 miles to hurry up to meet the general, and seal Wei Qing as the general in the army, and seal 6,000 households, all the generals of the Han Dynasty are under the command of the general, and the three children of the general are all named liehou." ”

"No. ”

Huo Qubing next to him also stepped forward to read the border war report, and was also full of excitement, hearing Liu Che's reward, he couldn't help but be proud of his uncle, and said loudly: "Uncle is brave, in the future, I must be as good as my uncle, destroy the Huns and make contributions to the Han Dynasty." ”

"Well, if you have this merit in going to the sick, I will also make you a general. ”

"Great, you must step up your training when you get sick, and greet the triumph of the general's uncle in good condition. ”

"Go, go, hahaha......" The hall was filled with Liu Che's laughter.

Wei Qing led the army, prisoners and booty to return to Chang'an at the same time, there were also two men and a woman with a few children wearing tattered clothes and walking towards the Han border, one of the men and women are also the appearance of the Huns, slowly saw a city in front of them, the man of the Huns said to another man of the Han people: "Master, the front should be the Hetao area, I heard that this place has been occupied by the Han, we finally do not have to worry about the pursuit of the Huns." ”

"Yes, I'm finally back in our country, and this is the home I think about day and night. ”

"Quick, we're almost there. ”

Just as the two people were running towards the city quickly with women and children, a few Huns appeared in front of them to block the way, and several people were instantly shocked, thinking to themselves: "Could it be that this place has been recaptured by the Huns again." ”

Just when they were panicking and didn't know what to do, the Huns who blocked their way asked, "Are you from the Huns?"

The two of them nodded and shook their heads, making the questioner feel very confused, and then asked, "Is the war over there, what is the situation?"

"It's over, the Han army has defeated the Right Xian King. ”

"Oh, great, it's great, go to the city and tell everyone, everyone is looking forward to the Han Dynasty winning the Huns to avenge them. ”

Now the people understood that these Huns and those of the royal court were not all the way, so they followed a few Huns to the city, and just arrived at the gate of the city, a person walked out of it, and this person said to Shi Li, who led the way: "Master, does you have any news on the battlefield today, has the Han army won?"

"Oh, it's won, it's not like I brought all the people from the battlefield over there. ”

The visitor raised his eyes and couldn't help but get excited and said, "May I ask you are the Marquis of the ancient city, right?"

The person who came said it was right, it was the ancient city marquis Zhang Jiayang who walked out of the city gate, Zhang Jiayang looked at the comer in tattered clothes, watched carefully, and asked with a puzzled face: "Are you?"

"Zhang Qian, I am Zhang Qian who sent out from Chang'an to the Western Regions more than ten years ago. ”

"Ah, you are Zhang Qian, is it really Zhang Qian, are you back?"

"Yes, yes, yes. ”

Zhang Jiayang has long understood that Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions is a feat in the Western Han Dynasty, Zhang Qian is the first person to open his eyes to see the world, seeing Zhang Qian and the three people behind him in tattered clothes, he couldn't help but sigh: "You have suffered, hurry up to the county guard tent to talk." ”

"The Marquis of the ancient city, please lead the way. ”

A few people came to the county guard tent, since Su Jian led the soldiers into the front line, the camp tent here is basically empty, leaving some basic guards to guard, and urging the migrant workers to carry out the construction of the city, Zhang Jiayang defeated the divine soldiers last time to save Shuo Fang, and is the current emperor of the Hou Ye, so Shuo Fang's guest, so Zhang Jiayang led Xiao Zhuge and Master Yiling and others to Shuo Fang after temporarily settled, and then went to Chang'an after recuperating in spirit, who knew that today I met Zhang Qian here, and witnessed this great historical moment。

Everyone sat down, the attendants served food and tea, and Zhang Jiayang said: "If you can return safely, you will definitely add many possibilities for the development of the Han Dynasty, and you will definitely be rewarded by the emperor for your miraculous achievements for the Han Dynasty." ”

"I didn't dare to do it, and I failed to complete the idea of uniting Great Xia to destroy the Huns, and I was ashamed of His Majesty's trust. ”

"I believe the emperor will understand, when you arrive in Chang'an, the emperor will be proud of you. ”

"The minister is looking forward to seeing the emperor as soon as possible, so as not to make the emperor's futile hope. ”

"You can repair here for a few days, and let the rear side send a carriage to wish you a speedy return to Chang'an. ”

"No, just have a meal here and hit the road right away. ”

"Since I am anxious to return to Chang'an like this, let the chef prepare the meal," Zhang Jiayang looked at the tattered clothes of several people again, and continued, "Do you want to change the clothes of several people?" ”

Zhang Qian hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No need, no need, these clothes have accompanied us through more than a dozen spring and autumn seasons, and they can be regarded as objects that have witnessed us all the way. ”

Zhang Jiayang responded after looking confused: "It makes sense, it makes sense, then it's not reluctant, then let's eat." ”

The simple meal was presented, Zhang Qian and the three of them didn't care about any image, they grabbed it with their hands and ate it in a big gulp, and the food that came up without much effort had been eaten clean like a whirlwind, Zhang Jiayang sat next to him and just looked stupidly, Zhang Qian looked up at Zhang Jiayang and said: "I just rushed to the Han side along the way, and I haven't sat down for a meal like this for a long time, which made Hou Ye smile." ”

"Where, where, would it be nice to have some more food?"

"Almost, it's better to hurry later. ”

"Okay, then prepare some dry food, there are still a few days to get to Chang'an, so be prepared and suffer a little less from traveling." ”

"Thank you, Master Hou, for your thoughtfulness. ”

In this way, Zhang Jiayang prepared a carriage for Zhang Qian and a few people, and sent a coachman to follow him and hurriedly set off to Chang'an, Zhang Jiayang saw the first person to officially go to the Western Regions, and there were ripples in his mind, and he couldn't help but sigh: "The magnificent historical events depicted by later generations are made by the struggle and lives of countless people." ”

Xiao Zhuge who was standing on the side said: "Brother's sigh makes sense, but now this history is mixed with the elements of our ancient city people, and we are on both sides of the Han and Hungarian sides, and we may leave like this may boost the prestige of Sima Bad Water, and it is possible to turn this history into a pot of porridge." ”

"Brother is right to remind us, we must settle things here before leaving, and be heroes who are not written into history. ”

"Okay, then we should use Shuofang as a base to build a team against Sima Bad Water until Sima Bad Water's divine soldiers are disbanded, and then leave this complicated history. ”

"Everything is up to my brothers, lead us to do it. ”

"Okay, we'll organize the border people later, and establish a team under the leadership of Shuofang County to deal with the divine soldiers. ”

Besides, Liu Che of Chang'an welcomed Wei Qing and led the army back triumphantly, not to mention how happy he was in his heart, Huo Quai's uncle who greeted the triumphant return dozens of miles away, his small waist pole sat on horseback and straightened, the end of that pride seemed to be like he had won a big victory, Wei Qing looked at this nephew, and couldn't help grinning and secretly laughing.

The army entered Chang'an, Wei Qing was immediately summoned by Liu Che into Weiyang Palace, Liu Che walked out of the Xuanshu Hall to greet him, Wei Qing saw Liu Che hurriedly prostrate and knelt down and said: "Minister Wei Qing see Your Majesty." ”

Liu Che said with a smile: "The general, please get up, shout Huns, the general is indispensable, if you have any requirements, just say it." ”

Wei Qing heard Liu Che's words and kowtowed even more: "Your Majesty, the minister is about to say this, this great victory is the result of the unity of all the soldiers and soldiers, not the minister's own strength, the general is ashamed, and the minister's three sons have no half an inch, and the marquis is even more afraid to take it seriously, and ask Your Majesty to withdraw his will." ”

Liu Che smiled and said, "I will not forget the merits of other soldiers and captains, and there will be rewards as well." ”

So Gongsun Ao, Han Shuo, Gongsun He, Li Cai, Li Shuo, Zhao Buyu, Gongsun Rongnu, Li Fu, Li Xi, and Dou Ruyi, who followed Wei Qing's campaign, were all named marquis.
