Chapter 222: This Moment Has Finally Arrived [Asking for Votes]
Li Qing is a Han soldier, has been in the army for four years, is 22 years old this year, he is very cautious, with a small nose and small eyes, and his body is not tall.
He was not very old, but he participated in a lot of battles, especially the battles against the Huns, and participated in the whole process.
After defeating the Chinese army of the Xiongnu royal court, his military cultivation grew rapidly, and he quickly became the elite of the army, and was respected as a veteran of the forbidden army.
This old man does not refer to age, but to the honorific title of a hundred battles.
At this time, Li Qing's footsteps were fast, and he was rushing from the military camp on the outskirts of the city to the direction of the military palace.
In the past two days, Huo Qu returned to Chang'an and sent a notice to all battalions of the guards.
Every evening, he took time out to be in the military mansion and personally explained the specific content of the art of war that was preached in the military mansion every day to the battalions of the guards, and even taught the art of fighting in battle formations.
Huo Quzhi carefully considered the way to promote the soldiers to learn from the world.
A more detailed teaching process is inevitable, and it cannot all rely on the selection of the military government.
At present, all kinds of knowledge and cultivation are mostly the secrets of one family and one surname, and the secret skills of one family and one faction are self-cherished.
One of the main reasons for the development of Confucianism is that it is extremely universal, and everyone can pick up books and read them, and it is possible to step into the threshold of the most basic level of Confucianism.
If you want to make the art of war a prominent study and let more people cultivate the army, you must first abandon the view of the portal.
Huo Quzhi is also groping, slowly pushing.
With his prestige in the army, he was willing to personally guide the army, and suddenly there were many followers.
After the guards had completed their daytime drills, they would gather at the military palace in the evening.
"Hurry up, hurry up, procrastinating, I knew it was so slow, I shouldn't have practiced a hundred miles today."
On Li Qing's way to the military palace, there were other battalions of troops who were also rushing in the same direction.
A veteran of the Han Army, three steps and two steps, when he came to the military mansion, he saw Huo Qubing practicing actual combat skills in person.
He took an old soldier's saber and used the simplest and most direct fighting method suitable for the battlefield to carry out the drill.
"I'm going to learn the knife today." Li Qing joined the audience with great interest.
On the square outside the surrounding military mansion, thousands of old soldiers have gathered, lining up on their own, standing neatly and neatly, holding their breath.
This kind of teaching is limited to veterans, and recruits who have never been on the battlefield will not help much if they hear it.
At this time, Huo Quzhi's arm was pulled out horizontally, the blade swirled, and the backhand was chopped out, and the knife flashed like lightning, like a bird passing through a fish, and it was like an antelope hanging its horns, without a trace, as if it reflected the order of heaven.
In the void, a knife mark was actually left in the air, and it did not disperse.
The trajectory of this knife is like being frozen by a knife qi, which will not disappear for a long time, for the soldiers to watch the direction of its operation.
In fact, this knife is simple and fast to the extreme, without any superfluous changes, it is fast, ruthless, and indomitable!
And after the sword momentum, the void suddenly erupted with a thunderous sound, deafening like a tide. It can be seen that the knife just now was so fast and majestic, and it took a long time for the knife to break through the air.
All the guards stood solemnly, as if an invisible flame was burning in their eyes.
The sword skills that Huo Qubing practiced for them would not be a height that they could not reach, but would be closely related to their cultivation.
In other words, their upper limit at this stage, in terms of pure destructive power, has the potential to reproduce this knife.
This temptation is quite large, if you can split this kind of knife power, the battlefield will be trapped, and the opponent's armor will be split for you!
After Huo Quzhi demonstrated a simple chopping, a lieutenant asked: "Huo Hou's knife, is there a trick to follow?" ”
"Yes."
Huo Quzhi said: "The knife process should be good-looking." ”
“?”
Killing the enemy on the battlefield pursues simplicity, efficiency, and ferocity, and I have never heard of the requirements for good-looking.
"No matter what kind of practice you have, after reaching a certain level, you have one thing in common, that is, the rhythm is natural, as if it fits a certain Tao rhyme, and it has its own sense of beauty.
So what I say about good looks is not a simple vision, but a kind of internal and external force law, to be internal and external, and fit each other.
You practice slashing and stabbing every day, but there was a moment when you inadvertently slashed your knife, but you can burst out with far more power than usual, but you can't do it if you want to do it again? ”
"Yes!" The soldiers responded loudly.
Huo Quzhi said: "This is the opportunity I said, at a certain moment, the knife that was chopped out was the most lethal and the most beautiful." ”
"If you want to do this, the foundation is to keep practicing, to increase your attack power, and to reach a state of extreme familiarity, so that you can grasp an opportunity in the dark and keep yourself at the level of magic at all times."
The generals who were listening from below suddenly realized that they whispered to their companions:
"Huo Hou said that he practiced hard in a different way, but in fact, there is no trick at all, just repeated training?"
Another lieutenant: "I don't know if you're right, but Huo Hou said it, looked at these soldiers, their eyes lit up, and they consciously found the trick, and they will definitely work hard when they go back." ”
Huo Quzhi explained, and shook a knife flower, and in an instant, the blade was a thousand illusions, and the cold light was shining, and it was merged into one.
And in this process, a knife intent naturally converged on the blade.
With a knife fall, everything is broken.
"When encountering the enemy on the battlefield, do not hesitate, take action immediately, launch an offensive with the simplest and fastest speed, and seize the initiative, which is very important."
Huo Quzhi was talking quite energetically, when he heard a voice in his ear: "Go sick, you come here for a trip." ”
The emperor himself spread the word, and it was obvious that there was something important.
Huo Qubing pondered for a while, guessing that there was a reply from the Western Regions, so he asked his subordinates to train on their own, and the formation patterns under his feet were opened, and he used the magic power of military strategy to go up, and took one step, as if entering the void, the light in front of him flashed, and he returned to Weiyang Palace in a few breaths.
"Lang Zhongling!"
The forbidden army stationed there saw their own big leader and saluted in unison.
Huo Quzhi sighed, and then came to the emperor's study.
Li Cai, Zhang Tang, Dong Zhongshu, and Zhou Ping are all here.
Most of the generals were out and did not return, only one Cheng Buzhi sat in the column on the emperor's right hand, and when he saw Huo Quai, he nodded as a salute.
Huo Quzhi sat down and said, "The envoy of the Western Regions has news. ”
Liu Che hummed, his face was happy.
At this moment, even he was inevitably throbbing.
From the Shang and Zhou dynasties, to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and then to the Qin and Han dynasties, the land of Shenzhou has been passed down from generation to generation, and has experienced the era of the reign of Youchao, Suiren, Fuxi, Shennong, Yellow Emperor, Zaili Yao, Shun, Yu and so on.
The ancestors took ritual music as the system, derived the gossip of the Book of Changes, the book of Dan and Zhu Wen, learned to dress prestigiously, and the customs were filial.
The scope of activities of all dynasties has always revolved around the Yellow River Basin.
By Liu Che's generation, the opportunity to expand the territory on a large scale has finally arrived.
It was the emperor's long-cherished wish for many years to include the Western Regions in the territory, the integration of all countries, and the merger into the Han Dynasty.
"Roshnadai Qiuzi in the Western Regions, Gumo and Gumo, came to see me in half an hour, saying that he was willing to call himself a Han people, and offered Qiuci as my Han land, and called me a minister. As long as the official credentials are submitted, they can be classified into our Han Dynasty, and their country is a subject state of our Han Dynasty. The emperor said.
Huo Quzhi said: "Subject country? ”
"Yes, their only demand is to be called a vassal state, and they want to retain their right to self-control. Please do not forcibly relocate the people of the Western Regions into Middle-earth, completely dispersing their original population. ”
"Then wait a little longer."
Huo Quzhi said: "Don't be busy agreeing first." ”
Zhou Ping's heart jumped on the other side: What a ruthless method.
Just looking at Roshna's attitude, it is clear that Loulan, with the support of the Western Xiongnu, must have stepped up the offensive against Qiuci and Gumo.
Under the current situation, all the countries in the Western Regions are waiting and seeing, and no one dares to stand in line at will during this sensitive period, and Qiuzi and Gumo are in a stage of isolation and helplessness.
Huo Quzhi said Wait, I am afraid that the war will burn to Qiuzi, and the eyebrows of the two lords of Gumo will rise.
Their mentality will be more urgent, their lives will be at stake, they will further lower their profile, and their chips will become less and less.
This is to force Qiuzi and Gumo into a corner, not to give them the slightest chance to repeat, and then use them to take the lead and show the countries of the Western Regions...... Zhou Ping was worried.
"I think I should wait."
The emperor smiled: "But there are some things, we have to prepare now, the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first."
Li Cai, you are responsible for dispatching people to get food and salaries from the major clans. Tell them that when they get to the Western Regions, I'll give them some priority.
Zhou Ping, Zhang Tang, and you assisted Li Cai in acting. ”
Several people led the order in unison.
The emperor turned his gaze to Huo Quai: "You have been on the expedition since last spring, and it has been almost a year now, with a total of 12 battles, expanding the territory and opening up the territory, and I will help you count them." After you were crowned a hussar general, you haven't taken the stage to pay homage to the general.
In the early spring, I will set up a ceremony for you to take the stage to pay respects. ”
In ancient times, there was an exclusive ceremony to worship the generals, and the sacrifice was very formal and solemn.
Even the lord of the country had to bathe and perform the vows for several days in advance, and then hold a ceremony to worship the generals at the temple dedicated to the ancestors of the past dynasties.
Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the way of life and death.
After Huo Qubing was awarded the title of general, the ceremony was never held, because the general needed to choose an auspicious day, and start the best before the war, and then win the battlefield to sacrifice the soldiers!
After he fought the Huns, several other battles were very classic and showed their strengths, but they could not be called national wars!
At this time, the emperor proposed to confer generals, because he had a heart for the Western Regions, and informed the whole army that this battle was not allowed to be defeated, and the Xiongnu should be defeated.
When Huo Qu returned home, it was already dark.
Liu Qing also just came back, and the husband and wife were in the clear pool behind the dormitory, bathing and communicating.
"Husband, do you know that Your Majesty has taken in a new concubine, and she is from the Jin family in Hexi?" Liu Qing asked.
Huo Qu heard Ru Bohu mention it before he got sick, and Princess Pingyang introduced it to His Majesty.
"That Concubine Jin has deliberately befriended all the families of the clan these days, and sent us many salutes, but I refused. But I see that she is so diligent in moving, I am afraid that there are some plans. ”
Liu Qing pressed Huo Quai's hand and asked him not to interfere with his speech: "I used the power of embroidery to check the details of the Jin family in Hexi. ”
Huo Qu was sick and worried that Liu Qing would join the embroidery, and the happiest person was Ru Bohu.
Liu Qing is not only the emperor's youngest sister, the most favored pearl of the clan, but also his wife of Huo Quai.
In the past, even if he was as Ru Bohu, he couldn't check the affairs related to the clan or concubines at will, but Liu Qing could.
Her identity and the forces behind her will make the authority of embroidered clothes invisibly raise to a higher level.
"What did you find?"
Huo Quzhi asked lazily, and said, "Can you talk about these things later?" ”
Liu Qing showed an expression of 'I am a virtuous helper', and he was about to say it now: "I didn't find anything, the Jin family is quite regular." It's just that Concubine Jin has a clan brother named Jin Xu.
It is said that she is also from a family of cultivators, and she probably wants to find a career for her brother.
I guess the consideration behind them may be that they feel that the husband has the trust of His Majesty, and it all depends on the battlefield to win, and no one can replace him.
So I also want to train a military general to come out and share the military power of Bo Fujun.
This Jin Xu is what they made out to disgust people. ”
Huo Quzhi smiled dumbly, the soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty, his uncle was in charge of the border army, and he was in charge of the forbidden army, and he was like an iron bucket.
There was an old faction headed by Li Guang before, which was barely a hill and could compete with his uncle. But now Li Guang obviously has a tendency to come over, and Li Guang's son Li Dang is one step ahead of his Laozi and has already expressed his loyalty.
The soldiers and horses, Huo Qubing does not need to operate, it is an iron plate, others want to interfere, it is difficult.
On the contrary, he himself thought that if he could divide some of the defeated soldiers and let others stand up as shields, it would actually be a good thing.
"Winning on the battlefield is often an innate intuition, and no matter how talented people learn, it is in vain. Concubine Jin, and Princess Pingyang love to toss, let them toss. ”
As soon as he spoke, Liu Qing was caught off guard, and snorted: "There is no door, I want to divide my husband's military power, and I haven't asked if I agree." "Speaks like a little hen guarding a calf.
Hum...... Liu Qingmei's eyes narrowed slightly, and she gave Huo Quzhi a surprise attack with her backhand: "I heard that you have taken that Bai woman with you when you go out these times?" ”
This time, it was Huo Quai's turn to be caught off guard, and the offensive was blocked, and he couldn't go up or down.
Liu Qing pursed his lips and said: "Husband said before that the Bai woman is not credible, let me stay away from her, and then you yourself take her by your side and get along day and night?" ”
