Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Soldier Is Me!
Huo Qu's words fell, but the first reaction was the prostitute spy who pretended to be Zhuo Qingke.
"Lan Qing, a secret detective, has seen Huo Shizhong."
She was crying a moment ago.
When they saw Huo Qubing solve Liu Qian and his guards, the two of them fell on their backs, quickly stepped forward to check, and made sure that the two of them were really dizzy, turned their heads and changed their faces, and gave Huo Qubing a salute.
Since ancient times, prostitutes have produced talents, and they are honest and do not deceive.
The girl's front placket was torn open, revealing a delicate collarbone as white as jade, but she didn't take it seriously.
He turned to Song Ran again: "I've seen the secret detective." ”
Huo Qu came from illness, and he was also further refining Song Ran's plan.
She planted a hidden stake next to Liu Qian, but it was not safe.
If the dark pile and Liu Qian get along for a while, there is a high probability that they will be exposed.
There is still time to remedy.
Song Ran immediately stepped forward and pasted a seal-like spell he had asked for from his master Ru Bohu on the center of Lan Qing's eyebrows.
The mark flickered and disappeared, as if it had melted into Lan Qing's body.
This kind of Yin-Yang family's method is Ru Bohu's personal system, which can support and restrain her thoughts and not be seen through, making up for the loopholes in her body.
Huo Quzhi looked at Liu Qian, and the texture of the snake and the spirit turtle in his consciousness blended, and it also turned into a wisp of qi and sent it into Liu Qian's body.
Xiao Ying, Song Ran, and Yue Rao quickly went to Liu Qian's inner and outer bedrooms and study, and looked through all kinds of letters sent and received.
After half a tea cup time, Huo Qubing and his party left the Huainan Palace.
Except for Liu Qian and his guards, no one else was alarmed.
Huo Quzhi probed part of Liu Qian's consciousness by the way, and found that he had limited knowledge of the plans of the King of Huainan, let alone what the writer was.
As expected, King Huainan would not let his son, who knew his affairs, hang around in Chang'an all day long under Liu Che's nose.
In the palace, Liu Qian woke up when it was close to dawn, and Zhuo Qingke, who had no master of the six gods and a blank face, sat beside him.
He recalled in his mind what he had experienced before he fainted, and his eyes quickly became empty again.
He once thought he was a kendo master, but it turned out that he wasn't!
The shadow in Liu Qian's heart is infinite.
Liu Ling and the others immediately learned about Liu Qian's attack, but they did not make a noise.
A few days later, the king of Huainan sent a message asking Liu to move back to Huainan.
After Liu Che heard the news, he did not stop him, and personally repaired a book and asked Liu Qian to bring it back to Liu An.
On a mid-May morning, a gentle breeze came.
There was a carriage outside Chang'an City, which left Chang'an with the escort, and Liu Qian took several concubines, including Zhuo Qingke.
Liu Ling remained in Chang'an.
At the same time, the situation in Beiguan remains grim.
The Hun rangers continued to gather at the border passes, spurred their horses, and the attitude of provocation was obvious.
The war could break out again at any time.
In the Huo Mansion in the evening, Huo Qubing was checking the map of Han and Hungary, and his eyes fell on a location in the territory of the Xiongnu, and he looked at it for a long time.
In the evening, he began to practice, and the two talismans in the sea were blended, and the turtle and snake were combined, attracting the aura of heaven and earth.
The qi in the body is surging, the power of many battle strategies in the book of sea soldiers is circulating, and there are more armor-like lines on the bodies of the Teng snake and the spirit turtle.
His eyebrows became brighter and brighter, and finally there was a talisman leaving his body, rising and falling beside him.
In Huo Qu's sick body, the injuries suffered by the author's attack have almost recovered.
The long night is fleeting.
The next morning, he entered the palace to see Liu Che!
In the study, the emperor had just come down from the morning court.
On the right side of Liu Che's first place, sat the old prime minister Sun Hong.
Next to Gongsun Hong is an old man with an elegant bearing, with slightly white hair and wearing dark green Hanfu. Sitting there with a calm face, there was an indescribable calmness and calmness.
When Huo Quzhi saw this old man, he thought that Dong Zhongshu had come to Chang'an.
Dong Zhongshu was the first in order to be the Yushi Fan, Taichang Zhouping, and his disciple Bai Yuxi accompanied him in the last seat.
When Bai Yu saw Huo Quai, he subconsciously straightened his waist, and remembered Huo Qubing last time he snatched the soldier's house from him.
Daxing ordered Li Xi, and Lang Zhong ordered Shi Jian to also be there.
The atmosphere in the room was slightly solemn, with a faint smell of-for-tat gunpowder.
There were also a few courtiers, who were left and right.
As soon as Huo Qubing came in, Li Xi, who was familiar with him, gave him a look and asked him to come and sit beside him.
"I just received the news in the morning that the Xiongnu continued to increase their troops, displayed troops hundreds of miles away from Beiguan, and successively sent small groups of rangers to disturb the pass."
After Huo Quzhi sat down, Li Xi explained the current situation to him in a whisper:
In addition, the Qiang, Di and other ethnic groups on the western front also had changes. The secret detectives got the news that the foreigners on the Western Front had gathered more than 10,000 troops in two days, and hundreds of soldiers were also stationed at the border passes, which seemed to be echoing with the Xiongnu, and there were signs of attacking the border at the same time. ”
Huo Qubing suddenly understood that this was the same situation as the last time the Hun envoys came to Chang'an, and it was a continuation of the situation at that time.
If there was a war with the Xiongnu and the foreign tribes on the Western Front had another move, the situation would be very unfavorable to the Han Dynasty.
Fan, Zhou Ping Wenchen, will definitely suggest that he stabilize first and shrink the line of defense.
This is Wenchen's consistent view, observe first in battle, and plan before acting.
Later generations also called the tribes outside Middle-earth nomads, saying that they were aggressive by nature and mainly attacked.
The Han people are an agrarian people, and they are not good at fighting by nature but are good at defending.
Talking nonsense, when will there be less war in the Central Plains, if you don't attack the outside, you will definitely be fighting inside. If there is an opportunity, it will also invade outside, otherwise where did such a large country and so many races come from?
What the Han people lack is not ruthlessness and bravery, but should reduce internal friction.
"What do you think of the situation on the western and northern fronts?" Liu Che asked in a deep voice.
Huo Quai: "The Qiang, Di and other clans gathered on the western front for the purpose of waiting and seeing, and they would never act lightly.
They gathered their troops more to create pressure, it should be that the Xiongnu promised them benefits, and the last time the minister attacked and killed Xu Buhui, it was just a repeat.
The minister thought that it was enough to inform the Western Front to pay attention to the movements of the Qiang, Di and other ethnic groups, and there was no need to send additional troops and horses. The northern front and the Xiongnu won the key. ”
"As long as our army can suppress the Xiongnu, the foreigners gathered on the Western Front will not attack and will collapse."
"Huo Shizhong said that the Western Front will not attack the border, is it true that the gathering of the Qiang and Di tribes is fake?" Bai Yu, a disciple of Dong Zhongshu who spoke.
On this occasion, he has no official status and dares to speak casually, obviously before Huo Qu's illness came, he had already participated in the discussion of the matter.
Taichang Zhouping also pointed to the territory map in front of him:
"The Qiang, Di and other tribes have harassed Xiguan many times in the past, why is it fake this time? In my opinion, the Western Front should be a heavy garrison and strive to be safe.
It is necessary to know that there is no trivial matter in the soldier's family, and there is no room for negligence. ”
In the study, everyone has a map of the territory of the cortex.
Before Huo Qu's illness came, the military generals and Wenchen expressed their opinions and had been arguing for a while.
At this time, the fan system, including the old prime minister Sun Hong, all looked at Huo Quai, and Bai Yu was even more engrossed, his eyes burning.
Zhou Ping looked determined, and seemed to be very sure of his judgment.
Seeing that Huo Qubing didn't answer, he said again: "Before you came, we all thought that the Xiongnu must be against the Qiang people, and the Di people promised heavy benefits, so that they could take action to contain my Han and participate in this battle."
On what basis did Huo Shizhong make a judgment, feeling that he didn't need to pay attention to the strength of the Qiang and Di tribes? ”
Huo Quzhi said calmly: "Confucianism doesn't talk about soldiers. When the two armies face each other, it is like playing chess, and if the opponent makes a false shot, we will vigorously mobilize our troops and horses to defend the western front, and we will not just fall into the opponent's trap. ”
Bai Yu interjected: "Lieutenant Huo Shi sees things too simply, the Qiang, Di, and Xiongnu jointly attack the border, which is a state affair rather than a simple military matter. ”
Huo Quzhi continued: "I have a basis for making a judgment.
Where two sides go to war, food and grass must go first.
The Qiang and other tribes mobilized, suddenly gathered their troops, and gathered outside Xiguan.
Judging only from their assembly speed, there is no grain and grass that they want to match their assembly speed in advance.
In other words, they are not prepared for big battles and protracted confrontations, so I say that the nomadic tribes outside Xiguan are at most just harassing and setting off large-scale confrontations, and do not need to pay too much attention to them. ”
Bai Yu frowned: "If the foreign tribes on the Western Front are fighting for the purpose of looting and raising wars, naturally they don't need to hoard a large amount of grain and grass, so what?" ”
Huo Quzhi said with a smile: "The western front is mountainous and unstable, and there are not many border villages, how can I support them in large-scale raiding and warfare?" ”
Fan and Zhou Ping looked at each other, and Bai Yu thought hard about how to refute it.
Dong Zhongshu, who had always looked calm, turned his gaze to Huo Quzhi for the first time and looked at him quietly.
Huo Qubing talked eloquently: "The Xiongnu, and even the nomadic tribes outside Xiguan, no matter how they plan, the ultimate goal is still to gather on the battlefield, and the victory or defeat of the war will determine success or failure!"
Military affairs are related to life and death, national fortune, and this is the meaning! ”
Huo Qu was sick and straightened his clothes, got up and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, please fight Beiguan when you are sick!"
In this battle, the soldiers are in me! The minister will be able to defeat the Huns and hit them for a thousand miles! ”
His voice contained a powerful and incomparable confidence, making people unconsciously believe that he could indeed defeat the Huns!
