When the sound of the Dunhuang military emergency report came, the entire Weiyang Palace was silent for an instant.

Everyone had to hold their breath and subconsciously skimmed their gaze to the center.

For an experienced person, one only needs to look at the outfit of the messenger to guess the size and severity of the matter.

But look at it and look at it, for this kind of thing, they can only look at the excitement.

Fortunately, the Han is no stranger to war, and the perennial conquest has made everyone immune to this situation.

The huge imperial court, even if the emperor was not there, did not have the slightest panic when he received the military report from the front.

It's just that the focus of everyone's work has quietly changed, thanks to Liu Che's bad old man's obsession with war.

To fight or not, at least when the emperor summons his ministers to talk about this matter, you can't make any mistakes in your own work.

It can't be said that when the emperor asked you how much grain you have in the treasury and what kind of scale of war can be supported, you smiled and replied stupidly, Your Majesty, wait a minute, and I'll tell you when I go back to check it.

It can't be said that the emperor said that he would call up troops to prepare for the expedition, but you said that Your Majesty would wait a minute, let me calculate how many troops we can send before talking about this issue.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

Liu Che does not require them to be able to accurately determine the data to every person, every county.

But at the very least, they had to give Liu Che a rough figure, for example, the treasury materials could only support the needs of 100,000 troops for two or three months at most without affecting normal operation.

For example, it is now at the tail end of the busy farming, how many soldiers can be recruited with all our might, and how many people can be recruited in order to minimize the task of farming, etc.

These people knew what they should do when they saw the military cavalry, and although the emperor was not there, the residual power left by the emperor was still there.

Besides, the emperor is just out on patrol, and he doesn't burp directly.

Although Liu Ponu, the crown prince, seems to be harmless to humans and animals, those who have been in contact with him know that this is not a very good master, so no one dares to be careless in this matter, and no one is willing to act as the vanguard!

"Your Highness, Dunhuang Military Situation Urgent Report......" A thin soldier, his face was slightly dark, and his tone was extremely weak, he took out a bamboo tube from his arms, and handed his head with both hands.

The nature of the military emergency report is different from that of ordinary reports, so there are many more rules than ordinary reports.

The attendant left by Liu Che took the bamboo tube in the military horseman's hand, carefully checked the seal on the bamboo tube, and after confirming that it was correct, he opened the bamboo tube in front of him and took out the bamboo slips inside.

The bamboo slips were also fixed firmly, and there was a layer of seal on them, and after repeatedly confirming that they were correct, they nodded towards Liu Ponu.

"Take it down and settle down well, be promoted to the next level, and reward a thousand dollars!" Liu Ponu waved his hand at the military horseman.

"Your Highness Xie's reward......" After the tired face of the military rider was relieved, he finally showed a smile that had disappeared for a long time.

The military cavalry looks quite majestic, but in fact, they are the ones who are the most hard-working.

Military merit is indeed very easy for them to establish, after all, different types of troops have different requirements for the establishment of military merit.

Military cavalry does not need to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, their military merit depends on the number of tasks completed and the nature of the mission.

Like this kind of task from the border pass to Chang'an, as long as the general report can be delivered on time and safely, it has its own attributes of great merit, and it may not be able to be promoted every time, but it can also become an accumulation of one's own promotion, but the reward is indispensable.

After all, from the time they received the task, the only time they dismounted was when they changed horses halfway.

And you can't do it slowly and leisurely, the front post station should immediately prepare a stagecoach and water bag dry food to the intersection after seeing the military ride coming, and wait for the military to go directly to the ground after the military ride arrives and change horses directly to continue the road.

Whether it was day or night, the military cavalry was on the way, eating, drinking, and Lazar and so on, all on the war horses.

Therefore, when I saw the military horsemen, they were vigorous at the beginning, and in the second half, most of them tied their bodies to the war horses to prevent them from falling off the war horses from being too tired.

When the military rider saw that the emperor was away, his heart trembled, but he didn't expect the prince to give a reward directly.

As for whether it is the emperor or the prince, this is no longer important, how to say that the prince is also the prince, and the emperor cannot turn his face with the prince and not admit it because of the reward given by the prince, besides, although the prince does give a little more, but it is not so much that it is outrageous.

Liu Ponu opened the bamboo slip unhurriedly, in fact, he was not in a hurry at all.

Although he hadn't read the content on the bamboo slip yet, he already knew what was written on the bamboo slip!

Similarly, Liu Ponu has been waiting for the arrival of this bamboo slip for a long time, and has even made a lot of preparations for this.

The content on the bamboo slip did not surprise Liu Ponu, it was exactly the same as the situation in history.

Li Guangli took 6,000 soldiers and young men with bad conduct to form an expeditionary army of 30,000 people, and it was expected to arrive in Dawan and break through the city of the second division to seize the war horse, so when he set out on the expedition, everyone called Li Guangli the general of the second division.

However, Li Guangli's westward journey caused panic in many small countries, so the city gates were closed, refusing to come out or providing food for the Han army.

In the past, when this situation was encountered, the Han army directly attacked the city and took it, regardless of whether you agree with it or not, I can't leave empty-handed when I come.

However, after Li Guangli broke through several cities, he found that the gains and losses were really outweighed, because the surplus grain found in the cities was pitiful, and the grain stocks in some small cities were not even comparable to the grain consumed by the Han army during this period of breaking through the cities.

In addition, the siege equipment needs to be made on the spot, and it can't be drawn at all, Li Guangli's last battle in the Western Regions was to enter Yucheng City (now in Uzbekistan) in the east of Dawan Kingdom, and the result was a big defeat, and the soldiers were killed and wounded heavily.

'Bang! ’

Liu Ponu threw the bamboo slip in his hand on the eucalyptus platform!

Even though he had known this result for a long time, when he saw the specific battle report, Liu Ponu couldn't help but get angry.

Liu Ponu could have avoided this incident by reminding him in advance, but at that time, Liu Ponu had no chance to remind him at all, he didn't even know that Liu Che's bad old man sent Li Guangli to the west, and it was too late to know later.

"The Han Dynasty has been established for more than 100 years, and it has never fought such a battle!" Liu Ponu clenched his fists tightly with both hands.

Liu Ponu glanced at the bamboo slip again, it did not say where Li Guangli is now, and Li Guangli also attributed the defeat of this battle to the unwillingness of the countries in the Western Regions to cooperate, and the reason why the Han Tianwei gradually lost.

In order to help himself save himself from the fact of defeat, Li Guangli even hoped that the emperor could requisition more troops and rations for him, so that he could lead his troops to go out again, and this time it was bound to level the entire Western Regions and sweep away the shame!

"Go and ask where Li Guangli is now?" Liu Ponu suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to ask the location of Li Guangli's army just now.

However, these are not the most important, Liu Ponu still has some opinions about Li Guangli.

Anyway, no matter how you look at it, Liu Ponu feels that Li Guangli is a person whose name is greater than his reality.

If it weren't for her sister, Li Guangli might not have gotten this opportunity to command the army at all, and if it weren't for his sister, Li Guangli wouldn't have had a series of follow-up opportunities at all.

The second expedition to the west did sweep Li Guangli swept the Western Regions, but that was only from the perspective of results.

In fact?

When he arrived at Yu Chengcheng for the second time, Li Guangli did not go, he asked his lieutenant Wang Shensheng to besiege Yu Chengcheng, but he was defeated, and Wang Shensheng was beheaded by Yu Chengjun.

In other words, in terms of the scene of the second expedition to the Western Regions, Liu Ponu thought that with the troops and military rations provided by the Han Dynasty this time, as long as he did not divide the troops, he could sweep the entire Western Regions by putting anyone in Li Guangli's position, after all, the strength of the Han army was not blown out, and the weak chickens in the Western Regions were not pretended.

Li Guangli fought so well in the Western Regions, why was he unable to take care of himself in the blink of an eye?

The battle loss rate of his subordinates has reached six or seven out of ten, which is a terrifying figure?

Therefore, Li Guangli, Liu Ponu, can't look down on it, and he is even lazier to look at it.

Compared with Wei Qingxiang, who also relied on nepotism, Li Guangli was too embarrassed by the two words Li Guang in his name.

"Recruit the book order, the door order, the book order......"

"Recruit big farmers ......"

"Recruit Han Yannian ......"

"Recruit ......"

Liu Ponu summoned these six elders in one go, Huaxia has had this characteristic since ancient times, big and small meetings, small things conference.

Something like this is that the elders have reached an agreement in private, and Liu Ponu is responsible for pretending to slap the table at the court meeting, and then ordering the troops to be dispatched.

There is no such thing as arguing at the court meeting because of whether or not to send troops, as for those who quarrel ruthlessly, either they are deliberately shown to others, or they have collapsed in private, and then they think they can just win the emperor.

"Your Highness, this is not a trivial matter, the old slave still thinks that this matter should be reported to His Majesty to decide......" Liu Qu cautiously reminded that Liu Ponu recruited those people to do with his heart.

I just thought that Liu Ponu was begging for military power in order to pretend to be forced and to support himself for a façade, but he didn't expect that he really found a place to use.

Liu Ponu was very determined, and said lightly: "The report must be reported, but we also have to make the preparations that should be made, my father gave me military power not just to let me scare those disobedient children, children are disobedient, as an elder, it is also appropriate to beat the children's buttocks......"
