An obviously flustered figure suddenly broke in, and Liu Che, who was shocked by Liu Ponu's words, had obvious displeasure on his face.

He hasn't decided to have a showdown with Liu Ponu yet, although Liu Ponu has already performed very well.

Although I have already begun to prepare for this matter, I have made practical moves.

But in this matter, he still maintained a trace of caution.

Liu is too conservative, and now he is worried about whether Liu Ponu will be too aggressive.

Although Liu Ponu's words made Liu Che think of Chao for the first time, in the dark, Liu Che always felt that he was reminding himself that he had opened the bow and did not look back.

But before Liu Che could think more deeply about this matter, he was interrupted by this flustered figure.

"What's the matter!" Liu Che made no secret of his displeasure.

The other party trembled with fright, but the stakes were very high, and he didn't dare to delay, and said tremblingly: "Master, the news just sent out by Princess Pingyang's Mansion is that the general has passed away......"

"What ......" Liu Che was stunned, and the unhappy expression on his face instantly turned into shock, pain, and confusion.

In an instant, Wei Qing's figure appeared in Liu Che's mind.

When he was young, he wanted to promote him, but he was assassinated and persecuted one after another, and it was Gongsun He who rescued him again and again and helped him resolve the crisis.

He remembered the picture of Wei Qing's first expedition, and he remembered that when Wei Qing returned victoriously, he finally had the confidence to raise his head and take a good look at the ministers who opposed him.

Again and again, despite suffering huge casualties, the Han army was able to penetrate deeper into the hinterland of the Xiongnu again and again.

The border troubles in the north were gradually solved, and Huo Quai's figure appeared.

Liu Che began to realize that Wei Qing had already made a great achievement, and he didn't want to kill Wei Qing.

Because no one knows better than Liu Che that most of the reason why he, the emperor, can have the confidence he has today, is because of the victories that Wei Qing brought back again and again.

Some people say that he promoted Huo Qubing to suppress Wei Qing, but it is not wrong to say this, he is suppressing Wei Qing.

But isn't this kind of suppression a kind of protection?

Although Huo Qubing is excellent, it is not that Dahan can't fight without Huo Quzhi.

There are so many candidates in front of Liu Che, why did Liu Che choose Huo Quai?

He just wanted to tell Wei Qing, you are old, and your merits are not low, it's time to give way, Huo Quai, who I promoted, is also half of your Wei family, I didn't unload the mill and kill the donkey, so you have to give me this step.

Wei Qing is a smart person, in the face of sudden suppression, he did not make a fuss, nor was he dissatisfied, but stayed at home quietly.

The grievances that happened to Wei Qing during that period couldn't even be seen by his wife, Princess Pingyang, and she wanted to go to Liu Che to talk about it, but she was still suppressed by Wei Qing.

Liu Che was not dissatisfied with the Wei family, on the contrary, because of Wei Qing, Liu Che always maintained a respectful attitude towards the Wei family in his heart.

No matter how dissatisfied he was with the prince and how angry he was, he never took his anger out on Wei Qing.

Even when the queen and the crown prince were panicked, Liu Che had to find Wei Qing to appease him, so that Wei Qing could pass on his words to his wife and son.

To summarize Wei Qing in Liu Che's words, this is a person who is capable, knows how to advance and retreat, is sensible, and can't be hated if he wants to.

Liu Che knew that Wei Qing's health had not been good in the past two years, and he even asked the imperial doctor in the palace to help Wei Qing see a doctor and check it regularly.

Those precious and rare medicinal materials were sent to Wei Qing's house as if they didn't need money.

But now, Wei Qing is still gone......

Suddenly, Liu Che was a little panicked.

The older generation has left one after another, and the younger generation has few who can fight.

finally came out of a Huo Qu's illness and died young.

Suddenly, Liu Che looked at Liu Ponu with a hint of scarlet in his eyes.

Wei Qing's death was not just a person, he took away not only the soul of a person, but even the soul of the entire Han army.

Some people will feel sad about this matter, but there are few people who can understand how important Wei Qing's life is to the big man.

As long as he lives, even if he is paralyzed in bed, even if he is dying, even if he is a fool, the morale bonus of the Han army and the suppression of the blood of the Xiongnu still exist.

But now, it's gone! Nothing!

The army is not in charge, the domestic population has plummeted, the opposition of hundreds of officials, and the prince's indisputability.

Everything suddenly fell on Liu Che's body.

Wei Qing's death caught Liu Che off guard, he found someone to fight against Wei Qing's forces, but before he could cultivate, Wei Qing died, leaving him enough time to react.

Looking at Liu Ponu again, there was a hint of resoluteness in Liu Che's eyes.

In this situation, even if he doesn't want to pull out the seedlings to help them grow.

"Do you know what this means?" Liu Che asked with a sad face.

"The military soul is gone, and the confidence of the Han people is weak......" Liu Ponu changed his demeanor at the front desk, and said with a solemn expression on his face.

Yuan Feng five years, May?

Historically, Wei Qing seems to have died this year, but the specific time is not recorded.

Looking at the appearance of the bad old man now, Liu Ponu suddenly understood a little.

He seemed to have found the reason why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty became more irritable in his later years.

No one may believe it when he says it, and even Liu Ponu feels a little ridiculous.

But according to his in-depth understanding, he found that the cause of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very likely to be because of Wei Qing's death.

A few years later, in the early years of Taichu, Liu Che sent Li Guangli, the general of the second division, to attack Dawan, this battle lasted for several years, and suffered heavy losses, although the king of Dawan was finally killed, but compared with the previous war, this war was more like a failure.

This battle also directly led to the Han Dynasty having to stop and rest next, which also gave the Xiongnu a chance to breathe.

As the time of Wei Qing's death increased, his remaining influence was also dissipating, and the Xiongnu even bluntly refused the request to send the crown prince to Chang'an as a hostage.

After a truce of several years, Li Guangli and Li Ling continued to go to the Xiongnu, but this time both of them were defeated and surrendered to the Xiongnu.

The successive failures at the front line have created a situation in which the internal warehouses are empty, the people are in exile, the world is wasted, and people are cannibalistic.

And the fundamental reason for this situation is that because of the defeat of the war, they did not receive any spoils of war to make up for the overdraft of the domestic grain and grass personnel because of their support for the war, which is like a gamble, winning the club, and losing without even having the opportunity to work in the sea.

In the final analysis, it was because of Wei Qing's death that the Han Dynasty's military deterrence capability declined, and Liu Che had a brilliant life because of the war, and in the end he naturally did not want to retire because of the war.

Therefore, whether Liu Che is unwilling to send Li Guangli or Li Ling, the ultimate goal is nothing more than to prove to the outside world that even if the Han army does not have Wei Qinghuo to get sick, it is still not something you can contend with.

It's just that the result is a slap in the face, facing a series of failures, coupled with the increasing opposition from the inside, which has gradually caused Liu Che to become more and more irritable and unable to listen to other people's opinions.

"With my understanding of the emperor, there will definitely be a big move in the military in the next two years, you better be able to complete things here in a year, you have experience in war, I plan to send you to the front line......"
