However, it is said that Huainan and Hengshan rebelled, and tens of thousands of people died. Emperor Wu thought to himself that the princes and kings saw that I had not set up a crown prince, so he was angry, so it was better to set the throne as soon as possible to avoid his thoughts. Seeing that the son of Empress Wei, Liu Ju, was seven years old, Emperor Wu issued an edict to establish him as the crown prince. At this time, Huo Quai, the son of Empress Wei's sister, also won the Hou with military merits.

Speaking of Huo Quai, he has been serving for several years, and he is very favored by Emperor Wu. Emperor Wu saw that he was brave and good at riding and shooting, and wanted to make him meritorious and receive a knighthood. In the spring of the sixth year of Yuan Shuo, Emperor Wu will attack the Xiongnu, and order the Hou Gongsun Ao to be the middle general, the Taifu Gongsun He to be the left general, the Marquis Zhao Xin to be the former general, the Wei Wei Su Jian to be the right general, the Lang Zhong Ling Li Guang to be the rear general, and the left internal history Li Fu to be the strong crossbow general, divided into six divisions, all under the command of the general Wei Qing, Keri Division. He also worshiped Huo Quai's illness as the captain of Yao, so that he led a team alone and followed Wei Qing to march. Emperor Wu was afraid that Huo would not practice military affairs when he first came to the battle, or there might be negligence, so he secretly instructed Wei Qing to select strong soldiers as his subordinates. Wei Qing was ordered to lead the soldiers out of Dingxiang from Dingxiang, and met with the Hun soldiers, attacked head-on, and beheaded about thousands of people. The Huns were defeated and fled, and Wei Qing also collected his troops and returned to Dingxiang, where he recuperated and fought a decisive battle.

After more than a month, Wei Qing sent his generals to advance separately, penetrated hundreds of miles into the enemy's territory, and fought several times with the Xiongnu, and the Han soldiers won a great victory. Wei Qing joined the generals to count the army, no big losses, the former general Zhao Xin was the little king of the Huns, descended to the Han Dynasty, and rushed forward enthusiastically because he was familiar with the road realm; The right general, Su Jian, also refused to fall lightly, and joined forces to advance; Huo Quai's young man was competitive, and he led 800 strong men to ride, forming a team and walking alone; The remnants also led their own troops to find and kill Hulu. Wei Qing was stationed in the back, waiting for the victory or defeat of each way before deciding the line.

Soon the generals returned to the camp one after another, or offered hundreds of Hu Lu's heads, or captured dozens of prisoners, or said that they did not go deep without seeing an enemy, and the generals and soldiers of Wei Qing did not test one by one, and there was no major damage, but the former general Zhao Xin, the right general Su Jian, and more than 3,000 of his subordinates have not yet been seen. There is even a prostitute Yao, and Captain Huo Quai, led 800 people who did not know where to go. Wei Qing was afraid that there would be negligence, so he hurriedly sent the generals to rescue him. After a day and a night, there was still no return, Wei Qing was secretly surprised, thinking that Zhao Xin and Su Jian were irrelevant, only Huo Qu was very favored by the lord, and he was his nephew.

While he was worried, a general covered in blood and crooked armor broke into the Han camp on horseback, and wept bitterly while prostrate and pleaded guilty. Wei Qing looked at the right general Su Jian. What is unexpected is that how did the once heroic General Su become like this in a blink of an eye?

It turned out that the 3,000 cavalry of Su Jian and Zhao Xin's department failed to navigate, and they encountered a large group of men and horses led by the Xiongnu Shan Yuqin. After a hard battle, the outnumbered people were worthy of death. At the critical moment, Zhao Xin, who was originally a Hun, actually led 800 clansmen to attack the Han army from behind. Su Jian didn't expect it, so he had to break through alone.

Wei Qing summoned Jun Zhenghong, Chang Shi'an, Yilang Zhou Ba and others and asked: "Su Jian lost the army, how should I deal with it?" Zhou Ba replied: "The general has not been beheaded since he sent out the army. Now that the Soviet Union has abandoned the army, it can be cut off to establish its authority. ”

Hong and An said in unison: "No! Cannot! Su Jian was outnumbered, did not rebel with Zhao Xin, and returned alone, self-evident, if he was beheaded, the soldiers would be defeated by chance in the future, and they could only abandon their armor and surrender and dare not return it! Wei Qing said: "What Zhou Yilang said is not in line with my wishes, imagine that Wei Qing is ordered to be exclusive and not powerful, why should he behead his subordinates!" Even if the guilty should be beheaded, it is also advisable to ask the Son of Heaven to die, but I am not good at it. "The military officials all claim to be good. So Su Jian was put into the threshold car and sent people to escort him back to Beijing.

Huo Qubing arrived at the end and entered the camp with a bloody head to report his merits. Who is this head? It is said that it is only borrowed from the eldest father. Then the three people were tied into by the troops, who were the Xiongnu Xiangguo, the household, and Shan Yuji's father Luogu. These three people were the leaders of the Huns, who were captured alive by Huo Quai, and more than 2,000 were beheaded. He took 800 strong men to the north, and he didn't see Hu Lu all the way, and walked for hundreds of miles before he saw the tent of the captive soldiers, and immediately took advantage of his unpreparedness to kill him. The captives were surprised by the sudden arrival of the Han army, and they were suddenly in chaos, so they were taken by Huo Qu's illness, and he grabbed the two leaders with a blade, broke the captive camp with all his might, and then returned to the camp to report his merits.

Wei Qing saw that Huo Qu was ill and came back unharmed and won a big victory, and he turned his worries into joy, so he ordered the class teacher to return to Beijing. There is a division to calculate that the two beheaded enemies are not less than 10,000 levels, all the generals have been killed, Huo Quai's combat exploits are especially many, Emperor Wu was named the champion Hou, and the rest of the soldiers were also rewarded, but Li Guang was useless. Su Jian's crime of losing the army should be beheaded and redeemed as a concubine. Although he won this expedition, because two generals lost his army and one general was demoted, Wei Qing did not add a reward, but gave a thousand gold.

Zhao Xin was defeated and surrendered to the Xiongnu, the main military minister of the Xiongnu Shan Yu had died of illness, and his younger brother Yi Zhi was independent of himself. Hearing that Zhao Xin was coming, he immediately summoned good words to comfort him, conferred the title of self-second king, and married his sister to him as his wife. Of course, Zhao Xin was grateful, and he was originally a Hu man, and when he returned to his homeland, he was happy to make plans for him.

In the spring of the second year of Yuanzhen, Emperor Wu Bai Huo was sick as a hussar general and led a horse team of 10,000 people to attack the Huns. Huo Qu's sick soldiers drove straight into Longxi, crossed more than 1,000 miles of Yanqi Mountain, captured and killed more than 8,000 enemies, won the prince of Xiu Tu, collected the king of Xiu Tu to sacrifice Tianjin, and returned to Beijing. Emperor Wu sealed 2,000 sick households. In the summer of that year, Huo Quaifu and his co-cavalry Hou Gongsun Ao each led tens of thousands of people to march from the north to meet at an appointment. Huo Qubing crossed Juyanze, attacked Qilian Mountain, beheaded more than 30,000 people, and killed more than 2,500 people, and the whole division returned.

The Xiongnu were killed by the Han soldiers, and in order to retaliate, they sent troops to invade Daijun and Yanmen.

When Emperor Wu heard the news, he asked Li Guang and Zhang Sai to lead their troops out of the right Beiping to attack the Xiongnu Zuoxian King.

Li Guang led 4,000 troops, and Zhang Sai led 10,000 troops, advancing in two directions. When King Zuo Xian heard that the Han soldiers were coming, he personally led 40,000 horsemen to meet Li Guang. King Zuo Xian saw that there were few Han soldiers, and surrounded him with horses, and everyone under Li Guang was afraid. Li Guang wanted to calm the hearts of the people, so he ordered his young son Li Dare to take the siege and kill the enemy first. Li Dare was ordered by his father to stand up, holding a long lance in his left hand and a short knife in his right, prancing into battle, provoking with both hands, killing a bloody road, penetrating the enemy's encirclement, and returning from the original road, still in front of Li Guang, his strong men only suffered three or five casualties, and the rest were unharmed. Quite paternal. The sergeant was originally afraid, but when he saw that Li dared to enter and exit freely, he also became bold, and when he heard Li Dare report, he said: "Hu Lu is easy to resist the enemy, so there is no need to worry." And all hearts were at peace.

Li Guang commanded the soldiers to form a circle formation, all facing outward. The Hu soldiers did not dare to advance, but they shot with strong bows, and the arrows were like flying locusts. Although Li Guangjun was calm, he could not avoid the arrows, and most of them suffered casualties. Li Guang ordered his soldiers to shoot back, killing thousands of enemies.

Li Guang saw that his arrows were about to run out, so he ordered the sergeant to spread the bowstring and not to shoot lightly. He used the famous big yellow arrow to shoot the enemy general, and each arrow was unexpected, killing several people one after another. Hu Bing was afraid of Li Guangshan's shooting for a long time and did not dare to approach. At this time, it was getting late, Li Guangjun was tired and tired, and his face was colorless. By dawn, the two armies were engaged again. Li Guang's subordinates were dying and in danger, but Zhang Qian's brigade came to respond. When King Zuo Xian saw that the Han army had come to the rescue, he immediately retreated. Zhang Qian was tired from the soldiers and did not dare to chase them, so he only rescued Li Guang and the defeated soldiers and led the troops back to China.

The hussar general Huo Qubing and Gongsun Ao Chi out of the plug, lost each other halfway, rushed forward from the lead of the tribe, crossed Yanze, crossed Xiaoyuedi, to Qilian Mountain, all the way to the wind like a bamboo, beheaded 30,000 levels, captured a lot of You, and triumphant. Emperor Wu recounted the punishment of meritorious service, and concluded separately that Li Guangyong was outnumbered, and more than half of the soldiers died, and the merit and crime were offset, and he was only exempted from punishment. Zhang Qian's Gongsun Ao delayed the military period, and should be punished with death and redeemed as a concubine. Huo Quai's three great victories were unparalleled, and 5,000 households were sealed, and his subordinates were all awarded the Hou seal by Zhao Ponu and others.

This time, the four generals will go out of the division, and Duhuo will go to the sick and make meritorious contributions. It turned out that the soldiers of Huo Qu's disease center were all selected elites, so they must win every battle. But Huo Qubing is also bolder than others, daring to go deeper, every time he goes to the enemy, he often leads the elite soldiers first, and the brigade follows forward, and he is invincible. Hu Erwei composed a ballad: "Kill my Qilian Mountain, so that my six animals will not rest!" I have lost my mountains, and my women have no color. This kind of song and rumor was introduced to the mainland, and Huo Qu's illness became more and more powerful. Emperor Wu tried to order him to learn the art of war from Sun Wu, and Huo Qu was sick and said: "For the sake of the general, depending on the strategy, you don't have to learn the ancient art of war." Emperor Wu built the first house for the sick man to complete, and ordered him to watch from the past and go to the sick and said: "The Huns have not been destroyed, why should they be at home." These words are quite loyal and courageous, and others have not yet been able to do so. Emperor Wu Yijia favors,

However, Huo Qubing has been a servant since he was a child, arrogant by nature, and does not know the hardships, when he went out of the army, Emperor Wu often ordered the officials to prepare food for him and load dozens of carts. When there were still many soldiers left, they were often abandoned, and the soldiers were inevitably hungry. When he was outside the fortress, the soldiers lacked food, and Huo Qubing was in the barracks. And the march of Wei Qing must wait for the public to eat, and they dare to eat; The public has to live in peace, and they dare to rest. When the soldiers are the first to fight, and the class teachers are behind the soldiers, the rewards they receive are often distributed to their subordinates. Therefore, it will be omitted, and the disease is far inferior to Wei Qing; But fortunately, it didn't fail.

Huo Quai's son of Huo Zhongru, Huo Zhongru is a native of Pingyang, a county official, and is a messenger in the home of Cao Shou, Hou of Pingyang. Wei Shao'er didn't marry Chen Zhang, Huo Zhongru had to return to his hometown in Pingyang, and don't marry a woman, and had a son named Huo Guang. Never communicate with each other. I grew up with my mother since I was a child, and I didn't know who my biological father was, and I didn't ask my mother until I was young, so I knew his father's name and address, and I didn't know whether he was alive or dead. At that time, Huo Qu was sick in the service, and he did not have time to visit, this time he had to worship the hussar general, and led the troops to attack the Huns, passing through Hedong. Hedong Taishou heard the letter and went out to greet him, carrying a crossbow arrow to guide him. When he got sick and arrived at the Pingyang Pavilion, he found out that his father was still there, and immediately sent officials to drive to meet him. Huo Zhongru was an old man, and he was very surprised when he heard the letter, that is, he took a car to the door of the museum. Huo Zhongru got out of the car and entered, someone had already reported that Huo Qu was sick, Huo Qu was sick and hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "I don't know that you are a father, and you are not supporting." Huo Zhongru was ashamed and didn't dare to respond, and kowtowed and said: "The old minister has to trust the general, and this heavenly power is also." "The father and son met for the first time, and they were courteous. The reason for going to the illness is that the march is fixed, and he must not stay for a long time, so he stays for a few days, takes out his private property to buy a farm house for his father, and then says goodbye. and defeated the Xiongnu class to return to Pingyang, and met with Zhongru again, and took his brother Huo Guang to Chang'an with him. Huo Guang was more than ten years old at this time, and he had to be a Lang official with the power of Huo Qu's illness. On that day, Wei's was extremely prosperous, one door and five waits, and wealth shook the world. The people of the time sang for it:

There is no joy in giving birth to a man, there is no anger in giving birth to a girl, and Wei Zifu is the only one who dominates the world.

However, a woman's favor depends on her appearance, and she is decrepit and relaxed when she reaches middle age. Empress Wei gave birth to three girls and one boy, and gradually changed her delicate appearance, and more than half of her black hair fell out. Emperor Wu was an old woman, so he couldn't help but hate it, so he went to pamper another Mrs. Wang. This Mrs. Wang was born in Zhao Di and was beautiful, there was an old mother, and there were no brothers, the family was very poor, since she was selected to see Emperor Xingwu in the palace, she also gave birth to a boy, named Hong, and Emperor Wu gradually moved the favor of Empress Wei to Mrs. Wang.

Wei Qing is in this era, just holding the profit and the ring. Who knows that he is simple by nature, and he still has no intention as usual. The bystanders were worried about him and couldn't help but come forward to offer advice.

This person's surname is Ning Mingcheng, and he is a native of Qidi. When the winter moon is in the winter month, Ning Cheng is not fully clothed, often coming and going in the snow, and the pedestrians are all smiling when they see it. It turned out that the shoes Ning Cheng was wearing were completely off the bottom, and when they looked like shoes from above, they actually walked with their feet on the ground.

One day, Wei Qing returned to Beijing, entered the palace to see the emperor, and Emperor Wu gave him a thousand catties of gold. Wei Qing thanked the reward, got out of the palace gate and got into the car, and followed him with the gold from the people. Ning Cheng hurriedly rushed to Wei Qing's car to stop the road and pay respects, and said, "There is a service Chen." Wei Qing hurriedly stopped.

Ning Chengxing approached the car and said to Wei Qing: "The general has ten thousand households, and the three sons are the marquis, and it can be said that there are no two people and ministers for a while. But the extremes of things must be high and dangerous, and the general has also considered it? Wei Qing was reminded by him, so he frowned and said, "I usually think about it, why will you teach me?" ”

Ning Cheng said again: "The general's honor is not all due to his military exploits, but because of the queen. Now Mrs. Wang is fortunate to be the Lord, her family is not rich, and the general may give half of the money to Mrs. Wang's mother, and the Lord will be happy when she hears it. Wei Qing listened and thanked: "I am fortunate to be taught by Mr., and I should obey the order." ”

When Wei Qing returned home, he sent someone to give it to Mrs. Wang's mother with 500 gold according to Ning Cheng's words.

Mrs. Wang's mother received a gift from Wei Qing, so she naturally informed Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang told Emperor Wu. Emperor Wu said: "The general is a rough man, he doesn't know how to do this, someone must teach him." Then he summoned Wei Qing to ask who was the plan, and Wei Qing replied: "Ning Cheng said that Mrs. Wang's mother has not yet been rewarded, and it is inevitable that it will be lacking, so the minister specially sent 500 gold to her, and there is nothing else." Emperor Wu said: "Where is Ning Cheng?" Wei Qing replied that he was now in the house. Emperor Wu immediately summoned him, and Bai Ning was appointed as the governor of the East China Sea. Ning took Xie Enpei to print out the capital, and actually went to the post of a high car and a horse, and it was really easy to get an official in a few words.

However, it was said that the Xiongnu were attacked by Wei Qing and Huo Qubing for many years, and there were many casualties. The Xiongnu Yizhi was angry because of this and tried to take revenge. A year later, he divided his troops into two ways and entered the army in a big way.
