Chapter 161: It has to be a champion

In addition to Huo Qu's illness, he has been working closely with Xiuyi on the orders of the emperor and knows the whole process.

Most of the other civil and military forces are not clear about what happened.

But when I was called in the middle of the night, everyone knew that something big was going to happen.

The study was quiet and could hear the sound of each other's breathing.

Jiuqing is all listed.

Including the highly respected Dong Zhongshu. Although he did not have an official position, the emperor often discussed national policies with him, and his status was special.

The emperor said: "Embroidery order, you tell the matter to the people." ”

Ru Bohu then concisely explained the cause and effect.

The brightly lit study room has been silent for a long time.

So serious!

The remnants of Huainan have not disappeared, and they are plotting to divide the Han Dynasty.

"Is the message accurate?"

Fan Ji swallowed and foamed, and asked astringently: "I mean these are inferences from the embroidery order, or is there already conclusive evidence." ”

The emperor's gaze turned to Fan's body, his face was gloomy, and the huge pressure was as unfathomable as the tide.

For a moment, even the soul of the fan system was trembling.

"What is the use of evidence for such a thing, so that the disobedient can be punished? How stupid is your question? ”

The emperor has always been moody, and it is the first time that he has been reprimanded in public for being stupid.

The fan system was silent, and he didn't dare to speak easily.

Everyone knows that the emperor is so ruthless, and the position of the imperial history has been crumbling.

"Your Majesty, it is impossible for the rebel army to control several counties at once, even if the plot is well prepared, they will not be able to do it.

In the land of several counties, there are many people who are loyal to my Han Dynasty. ”

This time it was Prime Minister Sun Hong, and he said: "They must solve the final problem by force." First forcibly occupy the northeastern counties of our Han Dynasty. Then they will resolve internal contradictions, get rid of those who do not obey them, and try to govern themselves.

Since this matter was discovered in advance by Xiuyi Ling and Huo Hou, there is still a buffer. ”

He also said: "Just now, the embroidery order said that the discovery of Xiongnu soldiers and horses in that area should be the force that Huainan wants to introduce."

This shows that their own force is not sufficient, and they need to use external forces to control the situation before they can further try to do so. ”

Dong Zhongshu said: "There is also a possibility that Huainan and that secret force want to borrow the Xiongnu to consume the soldiers and horses that my Han sent over to deal with them after reacting."

In this way, it is a consumption for the Huns and our Han, but they themselves can preserve their strength, reduce losses, and prepare for the follow-up.

and used the Xiongnu to do the early force pressure and kill. Huainan will come forward again in the future, which can reduce the resistance mood. ”

Huo Quzhi is still at a good level, and he looks at the problem from a strategic perspective, which is quite powerful.

He felt the same way.

The emperor's expression softened slightly: "What the master and the prime minister said are right. ”

Gongsun Hong groaned slightly, and looked at Wei Qing and Huo Quai: "Can the two generals strategically judge which area the other party should control first, so as to contain the throat and achieve their goal most easily?" ”

Wei Qing glanced at Huo Quai, meaning to let him say.

This judgment was not difficult for the two of them.

Huo Qubing came easily: "The most ideal is between Shanggu County and Yuyang County, there is a Great Wall between them, as long as the pass between the two places is broken, the situation can be controlled in your hands."

Not only is the cost small, but it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the area to master is also the largest. ”

Between Shanggu County and Yuyang County, there is a Great Wall Xiongguan at the northeastern end of the Han Border.

That is, the area to the north of the capital in later generations, and controlling it is equivalent to mastering all the areas in the northeast direction of the capital in the later generations.

During this period, the area was not as vast as that of later generations, and the terrain was slender and extended, roughly equivalent to half of the area of the northeast in later generations, but it was already a number of large counties, with fertile land and good warriors.

"If you can't hold the ancient and the junction of the two counties of Yuyang, you must control the area between Liaoxi and Liaodong counties, and you can also get several counties."

Huo Quzhi continued: "These two places are important, and if you can control one place, it will be much more advantageous than the previous Huainan. ”

"So we need to use troops as soon as possible to control these two places to be at ease."

Everyone was negotiating, and Ru Bohu had a sense and took out a jade plaque and looked at it.

This is used for emergency interrogation.

Daomen's transmission Gu Yu is also something similar.

This kind of utensils is easy to use, but the number is small and there is a certain distance limit.

Ru Bohu integrated his divine thoughts into the jade plate, and after a while, he said slowly:

"I just received the news from Beiguan, and there are already abnormal signs between the two counties of Shanggu and Yuyang. The Hun soldiers led by Zhao Xin began to move, moving between the two counties of Shanggu and Yuyang, and it seems that Lang Zhongling's judgment was correct. ”

Everyone's hearts sank.

After all, just now it was still at the level of judgment, just like Fan and others, it may not be a fluke.

But now it was confirmed, and the situation took a turn for the worse.

In fact, as early as when the traces of the Hun soldiers and horses were discovered, it showed that the other party was already taking action.

Otherwise, the Hun soldiers and horses would not have moved so close to Beiguan.

It's just a matter of further development.

"There was a rebellion in the border city of Yuyang County, and some people attacked the city gate at night from inside the city, trying to let the Huns into the city." Ru Bohu said again.

This time, even Huo Quai's heart jumped.

Huainan and the forces in the secret were selfish, and let the land of the two counties fall under the soldiers of the Huns in vain, and the crime is unforgivable.

The coldness in Liu Che's eyes has accumulated to the extreme.

He looked at Huo Quzhi and Wei Qing.

"Which of you two is going to quell the chaos and break the enemy for me?"

Huo Quzhi got up solemnly: "My aunt fainted and didn't wake up, and my uncle stayed in Chang'an." Thousands of miles of raiding is the minister's strength, and the minister asks for his life. ”

At this time, when he is a nephew, he must be sympathetic to Wei Qing and act as a pioneer.

The emperor also preferred Huo Quai, because of his fast attack.

"Wait, you may need to break the city here, although the champion Hou is very sharp, he has no experience in breaking the city. In the current battle, we must win, so as to deter disobedience and benefit the next situation, and we must not miss the slightest mistake. ”

It was Taichang Zhou Ping who spoke: "The minister suggested that in addition to the champion Hou, the generals who are good at breaking the city should be supplemented." ”

This suggestion is quite pertinent, considering that by the time of rushing over, the Xiongnu may have occupied the pass between Yuyang and Shanggu, and they were in danger.

The Han army, in turn, wanted to attack the city.

And Huo Qu is sick and good at attacking, but he has no experience in attacking cities.

Dong Zhongshu and other ministers also nodded in agreement: "What Taichang said is not unreasonable. ”

But the emperor did not take their advice, and asked directly: "Has the embroidered clothes order ever found out how many soldiers and horses the Xiongnu dispatched?" ”

"Between 8,000 and 10,000." Rubo Tiger Road.

"How many people does Lang Zhongling plan to bring?" The emperor asked.

"Three thousand brave warriors can break the enemy."

Huo Quzhi glanced at Zhou Ping: "Too often I only see that I have no experience in breaking the city, but I know that if the Huns, or the people and horses of Huainan enter the city, they will not have the experience of defending the city."

Will they defend the city? ”

Zhou Ping was stunned.

Huo Quzhi said again: "That's where I am a big man, Hugh said that there are more than 10,000 Huns, even if there are reinforcements, the minister is sure to break it." ”

The emperor stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and a broad-ridged sword flew down from the wall on one side, and landed in front of Huo Quai, and the sword roared.

"I have given the ancestor a sword, and if anyone dares to disobey and disrespect, he will be cut first and then played."

"Your Majesty rest assured."

Huo Qu bowed down and saluted.

"Zhao Xin is flexible and not cautious in using troops, but at critical moments, he will save his life first, and he lacks the courage to fight." Wei Qing admonished.

Huo Quzhi agreed, turned around and walked out of the study.

At this kind of moment, Wenchen is okay with staff and staff in the back, but if he really wants to charge into battle, he has to be a champion Hou, a national general like Wei Qing.

He walked out of the study, jumped into the air, and went out of the palace like a cannonball.

Race against time.

People were in the air, and Huo Quai's voice had resounded in the guard camp on the outskirts of the city: "The Chang'an Guards listened to the order, drew three thousand elites, one person with three horses, commanded the troops with Zhang Cigong, and carried a small amount of necessary baggage, and set off when they were ready, and went to Beiguan Shanggu and Yuyang in the direction of the two counties." ”

The Han army often drilled at night, heard the order of Huo to go to illness, and woke up late at night, but did not panic and make noise.

The old soldier silently dressed and armored, then took out his saber, made sure that the soldiers with him were in good condition, and inserted the knife back into the scabbard.

For a time, the entire barracks was filled with the sound of knives.

Counting the time for armouring, a quarter of an hour later, the whole army was still assembled, turned on their horses, and prepared to leave the camp.

Champion Hou Mansion.

In the manger, Jin'an kicked out with a hoof and broke the wooden fence of the stable.

Before Huo Qu could get sick, he rushed out of the stable, shook off his hooves and almost jumped onto the roof, and rushed out of the courtyard with joy.

At the back door of the house, there are already pro-soldiers on duty at night who have opened the door.

A small team of eighteen people lived in the mansion inside and outside the mansion, and the pro-soldiers of the forbidden army who served as guards also wore armor and carried out of the mansion with Jin'an.

Huo Qubing strode in the air and landed on horseback.

He looked into the depths of the mansion and knew that Liu Qingzheng was silently watching him there.

Huo Qu's illness lightly clamped the horse's belly, and Jin'an rushed out in an instant.

Eighteen cavalry guards were divided into two columns, front and back, and surrounded him in the middle.

The horse's hooves thundered like thunder, and they galloped away.

In a few moments, the cavalry rode out of the city, and on the outskirts of the city, the three thousand soldiers and horses galloped out of the guards, mingling like streams and seas.

The three thousand old soldiers did not need an order, they quickly changed the queue, forming a sharp arrow formation, with Huo Qubing as the front, and the momentum of the entire team changed, like an arrow off the string, heading to the northeast.

Fog rolled up in the night.

In the next moment, Huo Qubing and his team had disappeared.

Weiyang Palace.

The emperor stood outside the study with his hands in his hands, with a touch of purple in his sight, looking out of the city.

"Lang Zhongling's troops have increased again, and he has led the team into the void with the marching method, and even I, the lord of the country, is in Chang'an, and I have to borrow the fortune of the country to see his position clearly."

The emperor said to Wei Qing beside him.

"He entered the realm of heaven and man, and his cultivation speed did not decrease but increased, which is related to the edge he raised in the two battles that shook the fortune of the Huns." Wei Qing said.

The emperor nodded slightly: "All the ministers are scattered." The embroidered clothes ordered people to cooperate with the disease, and transmitted the detected enemy information to him in time. ”

When Ru Bohu agreed, Liu Che had already walked to the palace first.

"Lang Zhongling personally commanded the troops to go to Beiguan, and probably tomorrow afternoon, Zhongqing will come to my study again." The Emperor's voice was heard far away.

When the champion Hou left, there was a lot of movement, and the whole city heard it...... The plan that has been discussed with him can also be started to see who will make a difference...... Ru Bohu mused.

The light and dark parties of this great man, I may have forgotten how many people I killed in order to cooperate with His Majesty's accession to the throne...... Ru Bohu smiled gloomily and walked towards the outside of the palace.

In the Champion Hou Mansion, the Dan Room of the Back House.

The lamps flickered.

Qin Qingyu looked at Liu Qing: "Why don't you send him off?" ”

Liu Qing shook his head slightly, and inevitably whispered worriedly: "Master." ”

Qin Qingyu sighed: "You marry a leading general, you have to learn to adapt, you can't feel sad every time he leaves." You have to believe that he will be invincible and come back safely. ”

Liu Qing snorted: "Master, is this elixir coming out tomorrow?" If he returns, he will be glad to see his aunt all right. ”
