The sun is moving westward, and the hottest time of the day is passing.

"When the cultivation reaches a certain level and you want to make further progress, the ordinary aura of heaven and earth is no longer enough to propel you forward."

Ru Bohu's fingers showed unusual flexibility, as if they were glowing, and there were even thin arcs of light beating between the palms and fingers.

The halo in the mirror became more and more prosperous.

The halo in the mirror is a kind of 'technique' evolved by Ru Bohu with the means of the Yin and Yang family, corresponding to the national fortune, which can be seen as a corner of the national fortune.

At this time, in the three mirrors that were opened one after another, a pillar of light rose from each of them.

The pillar of light in the middle mirror is the most brilliant, like the sun in the sky, and the color is yellow.

The light in the mirror on the left is faintly in contrast to the pillar of light in the middle, but it is a dark green color, which is inexplicably reminiscent of the lush and vast grassland.

The remaining halo on the right side, among the three mirrors, is the weakest, and it is composed of dozens of halos converging together, which is not as far as the other two pillars of light.

This pillar of light corresponds to the Western Regions, the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu.

"If you want to improve along the way, personal qualifications are particularly important."

"In addition to qualifications, Huo Hou can know that His Majesty has a lot of opportunities every day, and his cultivation time is very small, why can he still far surpass ordinary people, and his cultivation is unfathomable."

The emperor's power is connected with the fortunes of the country, which is naturally unfathomable, but since Ru Bohu asked, he obviously meant something else.

Huo Quzhi said: "The secret detective order wants to say that the people in the dark instigated the confrontation between Han and Hungary in a vain attempt to steal the national fortune to achieve themselves?" ”

"The fortunes of the country are connected to all the people, except for His Majesty being in the Central Purple Palace, it is impossible for anyone to move the fortunes of the country."

"I don't think it's possible, either."

Ru Bohu said: "But I have a deputy commander who has followed me for many years, and I have always been very relieved of her, but she has a problem." ”

"She was executed by my own hands, and she told me some news before she died."

She said that the secret force that affected her was originally just a few people who were afraid of the decline of the vertical and horizontal lineage, but after it was formed, it slowly changed.

After the Spring and Autumn Period, the countries were numerous, providing the most fertile soil for the Zonghengjia, but its rise was also fast, and its decline was also fast.

After the Qin and Han dynasties established a unified empire, it was difficult for the Zongheng family to use their power and tactics.

Vertical and horizontal art can be understood as a unique group of strategists, and it can also be called the earliest and most special diplomats.

"Secretly, this force is obviously proficient in the way of vertical and horizontal. At present, none of the few people we have found are weak, which is enough to show their strength. ”

At this time, in the three mirrors that Ru Bohu moved, the qi of national fortune reflected had stopped changing.

"A country's fortune, gathering public opinion, the country's soldiers, wind and rain and other factors, jointly formed."

"In recent years, the people of our Han Dynasty have lived in peace and repeatedly defeated the Xiongnu, and the national fortune has become more and more prosperous."

"The deputy commander I personally executed said in the end that they have the power to control the world."

"Their leaders are called 'ancestors' and 'zun', and they can be compared with the sons!"

"I say this to let Huo Hou know that the secret power, if you want to disrupt the country, the first direction to attack may be to cut the generals, so that my Han can defeat the army in the front, which is the most powerful way and plan to thwart the national strength and national situation, and to seek the weak and attack the strong."

And if you want to defeat Bingfeng, the most direct way is not on the battlefield, but to kill the country's important generals.

"If my Han does not have a general who will win against the enemy, what will be the result against the Huns? Your Majesty still has the confidence to defeat the Huns? ”

Huo Quzhi said dumbly: "The secret detective order went around in a circle, is it to remind me that my soldier is their number one target?" ”

If you want to deal with the soldiers, the first target must be your uncle Wei Qing!

Compared with Huo Quai, Wei Qing has been famous for many years, and his reputation has shocked the world.

Before Wei Qing, although the Han people also produced many famous generals, most of them were civil wars.

Although there were times when the foreign tribes were victorious, they did not take the initiative in terms of strategy.

The Warring States and Qin periods were all times when soldiers flourished and famous generals emerged, but they were also stumped by civil wars and divisions in the Central Plains, and the foreign nomadic tribes did not form the advantage of the main attack.

It was Wei Qing who opened up a precedent for the Han people to deal with the Xiongnu and turn defense into attack in an all-round way.

In the evening, it rained lightly in Chang'an.

Huo Quzhi returned to his guard command hall, and his mind was still recalling Ru Bohu's words: The other party's next target may be your uncle, but it is difficult to predict how he will make a move, what is certain is that it will be very fierce in the future, and our plan can also be launched here!

Huo Quzhi looked through the window lattice, raised his eyes and looked north, his uncle was now in Shuofang County in the northern border pass!

In the same evening, the Western Regions thousands of miles northwest of the Han border.

One of the 36 countries of Qiuzi.

The glow of the setting sun falls on a domed tower in the heart of the capital of Qiuzi.

"Roshna."

Silk flags, who came back from a visit to the Han Dynasty, came to the top floor of the tower.

Not far away, the figure standing by the window is the spiritual belief of the people of the Western Regions, inheriting the honorific title of Roshna.

A long time ago, Roshna was the legendary god of faith in the Western Regions who entered the world to save the world, and had an incomparably lofty status.

The woman near the window, dressed in a red and white gauze robe, had her back to the silk flag.

She just stood there, but she conveyed a calming emotion.

Approaching that figure, it seems that you can get peace of mind.

Silk Qimu is Roshna's close female envoy, so some time ago she was qualified to represent Roshna, represent the Western Regions, and visit the Han Dynasty: '"Since you came back from the place where you went to the Han people, the Xiongnu Dashan Yu sent me the news, saying that he would defeat the Han army. ”

"If you want me to marry into the Xiongnu and become his clan, otherwise you will raise troops to level my Qiuzi."

The voice is gentle, you can't hear the age, it's the kind of voice with a low magnetism, which makes people unconsciously immersed in it.

Listening to her is a treat for the ears.

Bo Qimu said angrily: "Every Qiuzi person will not succumb to the Huns, Roshna, you are the most precious treasure of all the ethnic groups in my Western Regions and the gods left in the world, how can you be insulted by the beastly Huns?" ”

Roshna stood by the window and never looked back.

If you can see her in front of her, you will find that she, like Ru Bohu, who is thousands of miles away, is also using some means to observe qi.

The weather she saw was also a certain qi machine corresponding to the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty, and the two powers met.

The Xuanhuang qi of the Great Han is like a real dragon, but the qi of the Huns is full of blood in the eyes of Roshna, and the killing machine is hidden 0.

She sighed and said: "I can refuse him and avoid the unreasonable demands of the Xiongnu Shan Yu, but he will definitely take the opportunity to raise troops to start a war, and my people will be killed and injured countless times." ”

"That can't let Roshna marry you to the Huns."

"I believe that all the people of the Western Regions are willing to take up arms for you and defend against the Xiongnu."

"I don't have as much prestige as you think in the Western Regions, and at the real moment of life and death, there are three or five countries willing to fight the Xiongnu, which is beyond my expectations." Roshna said gently.

From the window of the tower, Silk Qimu looked at the far east: "If the Han can suppress the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu will have no chance to attack our Western Regions." ”

"That's why I asked you to go to Han as an envoy."

Roshna has a face that is different from that of the Han people, with a stronger sense of three-dimensionality, and deeper facial features of the eyebrows and eyes. Its lip flaps are as moist and plump as fresh fruits, and the fairness of the skin is also different from that of the Han people, like transparent fat jade.

She said softly: "Of course, I hope that Han can suppress the Xiongnu. ”

"But it's not that easy, the Hun Dadan sent a letter this time, and said very firmly, I guess he must have something to rely on. It is impossible to predict who will win and who will lose between Han and Hungary. Did you reply to the message I asked you to inquire about? ”

"I'm here to report this."

Silk Qimu said leisurely: "The Han people defeated the Xiongnu about a month ago. ”

I once told Roshna that on the way back, I almost encountered an ambush by the Huns, and the general Huo Quai, who saved me, was the one who led the crowd to attack the rear of the Huns, and broke more than 20 Huns in a battle.

"The prisoner he sent to us, Da Dan Yu's uncle Luo Gubi, was indeed snatched back from the account of the king of the Huns."

There were almost no channels for the Western Regions to hear news from the Han and Xiongnu, so the Han-Hun Dingxiangbei Battle had passed for nearly a month, and they had only gotten accurate information.

Roshna showed an undisguised look of surprise on her face: "The Han general was able to rush to attack the Xiongnu tribes, win the battle, and capture Luo Gubi from the king's tent?" ”

Silk Qimu nodded again and again: "Yes, respected Roshna." ”

"That Han general Huo is very young, and he was not born strong, but I didn't expect him to be brave and peerless, and he could reach this level. Even the Huns, who crisscrossed the steppes, were no match for him. ”

He said: "What about Uncle Luo Gubi, Uncle Shan Yu, whom General Huo sent some time ago?" ”

He has been locked up with us for some time.

"Na Luo Gubi's courage has gradually grown, and not long ago he threatened us, if we don't let him go back, the Huns' troops will be killed soon, and then we will regret it and have no chance......"

"The Han people sent him to us to force us to take a stand."

"He fell into our hands, and even if he was returned to the Huns, the Huns would consider it a great humiliation. When they can't help the Han people for a while, they will turn their anger on us. Roshna sighed.

"So what are we going to do?"

Send it back, stay in captivity, or kill it, each has its pros and cons.

Roshna thought for a while, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "You go and kill him personally, if Luo Gubi returns to the Xiongnu alive, it will be a great disaster for us." Dispose of the corpse and don't let anyone know about it for now. ”

A few days go by, August 7.

The northern border pass of Dahan, Shuofang County.

Wei Qing personally arranged the troops and secretly dispatched the troops, and made a lot of preparations.

Wei Qing and Huo Quai, Liu Che discussed sending troops in August and attacking the Xiongnu again.

At this time, the Xiongnu were busy with summer herding, and the soldiers and horses were scattered in various departments, chasing the land with abundant water and grass, which was the most unsuitable time for war.

For Han, it was a good opportunity to attack.

The Xiongnu have always been the main attackers, going south to plunder, although they were attacked by Huo Qubing once in the rear.

But no Huns would think that the Han would dare to fight again when their troops were retracted.

If the Han army really dared to go on an expedition, the Huns would only be overjoyed, hoping to completely defeat the Han army on the grassland, without any fear.

This night, Wei Qing stood at the head of the Shuofang border city with his hands in his hands, looking due north.

Thousands of miles north from here is the court of the Huns.

This time he secretly prepared to attack the Xiongnu, with Shuofang County being the closest to him, and if he could strike with lightning, he would reach Ulaanbaatar, the king of the Xiongnu, at the fastest speed.

And thousands of miles south of Shuofang is Chang'an, the center of the Han Dynasty.

The border city of Shuofang, the Xiongnu royal court and the Han Chang'an, the three form a straight middle line, thousands of miles away, far away!

The sky is full of stars and moons.

"General, it's getting dark at night, let's go back." An adjutant general came from a distance and bowed down.

Wei Qing answered, retracted his gaze, and walked down the city.

The place where he settled was in this border city.

Shuofang County guarded Xu Yi, who was able to write and martial arts, and also followed Wei Qing to fight the Xiongnu in his early years.

He was also waiting under the walls at this time.

"It's not far away, let's go for a walk together." Wei Qing said with a smile.

Xu Yi is forty-one years old this year, with an ordinary figure, a handsome face, and a county guard robe.

The two of them walked down the long street to the mansion in the center of the city.

In the border city, martial law will be imposed at night, and soldiers will patrol the streets from time to time.

And wherever Wei Qing goes, there is a team of pro-soldiers around him, never leaving an inch, wearing sharp armor and being heavily guarded.

"The general worked tirelessly and came to patrol the border in person, Xu Yi was deeply admired." Xu Yi's voice was gentle.

Wei Qing smiled: "The two of us have known each other for many years, why are you so polite?" What's the matter with you coming to me so late? ”

"All the supplies that the general asked me to dispatch have arrived, so come and talk to the general by the way."

Xu Yi glanced at Wei Qing: "Xu Yi has something unclear and wants to ask the general." ”

"Say."

"Why is the general transporting supplies to the border city for days after day at this season, but is there a war?"

No matter how secret the troops are, there will be things that need to be prepared in advance, and it is impossible to completely avoid everyone.

Wei Qing was about to respond, when he suddenly heard a strange noise.

He listened intently, and then looked in a direction under the darkness of the night.

Bang.

On the side of the street, a wall facing the street exploded and split apart, as if it had been impacted by an incomparable force.

A loud noise, shaking the long street!

As the chief general of the Han army, Wei Qing has encountered countless changes over the years, and he doesn't know how many assassination attacks he has experienced openly and secretly.

Protected by the pro-troops who were surging up behind him, he looked to the flank without being surprised.

At this moment, Wei Qing suddenly noticed a strong sense of crisis surging around him.
