The news that the young Huo Qubing led the army out of the fortress swept inside and outside Chang'an City like the wind.

Almost everyone's first reaction to hearing the news was incredible.

If it weren't for Li Yunze who could suppress the scene, they would all have to shout, 'Confused, right?' ’

A child who is not yet sixteen years old and has no hair on his mouth wants to take tens of thousands of troops to fight the Huns, how much the Son of Heaven does not take his elite soldiers and horses seriously.

Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion inside and outside Chang'an City, and almost everyone was talking about this matter, which quickly became the focus of everyone's attention.

"Have you heard all the news on the market?"

In the Qingliang Palace, Li Yunze looked at the heroic Huo Quai, and quipped, "Don't have any ideas?" ”

Huo Quzhi shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "It's just incompetent and angry." ”

This is not wrong, after all, everyone knows that as long as you win the battle, you will definitely be a marquis after you come back.

With such a great opportunity, if Wei Qing led the troops to fight, naturally no one would say much gossip, because he had already proven himself.

But how can Huo go to illness!

How many people who think they have the opportunity to lead the troops out of the fortress are all envious and jealous to the point that their eyes are red.

At this time, most of the people who spread the news outside were also these people.

Li Yunze followed up and asked, "I heard that there is still a family that uses you as the protagonist, and I rushed to write a lot of scripts overnight?" ”

"Beat it."

Huo Quzhi nodded sincerely, "Directly bring someone to the door, and after the beating, let them burn the script with their own hands." ”

To be able to be a family in these years, you must first receive an education, and you must have a higher education in this era, otherwise you can't write a word, and you can't write anything.

The second is that if you have money and leisure time, you can't write if you don't have money or time.

Last but not least, it is important to have a certain status, so that you can know all kinds of information and use it as material for creation.

Combining these points, the final result is that the family of the Han Dynasty is basically all relatives of the emperor and the children of the nobles.

Before the change, Huo Qubing hit the door, and people could just close the door and disappear, so he couldn't even enter the door.

After all, the high-walled compound of the big family is not to say, it really has a defensive nature.

But now it's different, Huo Quzhi was appointed by Li Yunze as General Yao, although he is just a miscellaneous general, he is also a serious general.

In the Han system, generals have their own direct subordinates, usually one-tenth of the soldiers and horses they lead.

In other words, Huo Quzhi can have 4,000 people.

Just take a few hundred people over and easily break in.

Of course, when you return to the court after the war, these parts will be returned to the court.

What the generals can leave behind is their own generals.

Regarding Huo Quai's door-to-door beating, Li Yunze didn't care much.

Those families, in their own scripts, all kinds of arrangements Huo Quai, was hit by someone, that is the right thing.

It's like if you scold someone and you are beaten by someone, you deserve it.

"Your Majesty."

Huo Quzhi took a few steps forward, came to Li Yunze's side, and said in a mysterious low voice, "I heard a piece of news and want to ask Your Majesty for confirmation." ”

His appearance aroused Li Yunze's interest, "Let's talk about it." ”

"Recently, there has been a rumor in Xincheng that the minister is the illegitimate son of His Majesty, I wonder if it is true?"

There is indeed a version of this rumor, and there are many people who believe it.

The big guys have similar thoughts, if it weren't for this relationship, why would they put tens of thousands of troops in the hands of a child?

Hearing this, Li Yunze looked at Huo Quzhi with a smile, "Then do you think it's true or fake?" ”

"Of course it's true."

Because Huo Zhongru's status in the Pingyang Hou Mansion is very low, and his personality is relatively cowardly, even Huo Quzhi is dissatisfied.

If his father is the Son of Heaven, then it is true. Hey, hey, hey.

"Don't think about it."

Li Yunze waved his hand and said, "How could I do such a thing, if it was true, then I would have already connected you to Weiyang Palace." ”

Hearing this, Huo Qubing was greatly disappointed.

"I fell in love with my aunt, why didn't I fall in love with my mother?"

Li Yunze waved his hand and signaled to stop talking about this topic, "I called you here today, because I have something good for you." ”

After that, he went to the desk and picked up a cylinder half the length of his arm and handed it to Huo Quzhi.

It is a cylindrical object, and the openings at the front and back ends are inlaid with glass, which looks very strange.

Huo Quzhi fiddled with it over and over for a while, then lifted it up and came to his eyes to watch.

"Huh~~~"

Hearing Huo Quzhi's surprised shout, Li Yunze said with a smile, "Go outside the hall and see." ”

Huo Quzhi ran out in a hurry, and ran back after a short time.

"Your Majesty, what is this? Why can you see things in the distance? ”

"It's a telescope." Li Yunze said with a smile: "Riding a horse uphill, using this thing for reconnaissance has a miraculous effect." ”

"It's a telescope." Li Yunze said with a smile: "Riding a horse uphill, using this thing for reconnaissance has a miraculous effect." ”

This telescope is not from later generations, but was made by this world with the technical support of Li Yunze.

The most important thing is, of course, glass, and it has to be pure glass without impurities.

Li Yunze provided the technology, and the rest of the things were taught to the people of the Mo family to do.

It took them many years to finally get usable glass, which in this day and age was called glass. Then he continued to polish and polish, and after countless damages, he finally got the best color in Huo Quzhi's hand at this time.

Well, the glass workshop is also a state-owned enterprise of the Han Dynasty, and it will soon be rolled out on a large scale to produce glass products, thus adding another source of revenue to the Han court.

"This battle is going to be fought well."

Li Yunze instructed, "If you win the battle, I will give you a marquis." ”

Huo Quai, who was full of confidence, immediately asked, "What name is Your Majesty going to give me?" ”

"What name do you want?"

"Be imposing." Huo Quzhi immediately said, "The kind that is different." ”

"It's not impossible." Li Yunze looked at him and said loudly, "But you have to make a convincing result." ”

"Whoa!"

On Huo Quzhi's sixteenth birthday, Li Yunze set up an altar to worship the general, and gave Huo Qubing the general seal, tiger charms, holy decrees and edicts.

Immediately, the young general turned over and got on his horse, and saluted Li Yunze on the horse, "Your Majesty, the minister is gone!" ”

Li Yunze nodded and waved his hand, "Go!" ”

A large group of cavalry rushed away, leaving Chang'an City and heading straight to Shanglin Yuan, where they joined the soldiers and horses assembled there.

Looking at the back of Huo Quai's departure, Li Yunze whispered softly, "When you return from victory, I will make you the champion!" The three armies are unparalleled in the world! ”

"If you don't come back, then I will personally lead the troops, go out of the plug and level the Hu seed, and avenge you!"

After years of development and reserves, coupled with the hard work of the people of Dahan and hard workers from all over the world, Dahan has made great progress in all aspects at this time.

Take the cavalry as an example, after years of development and promotion, the number of military horses that the horse herder can provide for the army is not more than hundreds of thousands.

And after generations of eugenics, as well as sufficient feeding, these military horses are all strong and enduring, and have become an important help for the cavalry.

In terms of weapons and equipment, cavalry, which has always been regarded as a key training target, has basically popularized half-body armor.

Wearing an iron helmet, wearing a half-body armor, holding a riding spear, carrying a bow and crossbow, and hanging a shield on the horse's back, a hammer axe, a chain, a sabre and other spare weapons, there is no doubt that he is fully armed.

The logistical supply was sufficient enough to make the Huns lose control of their emotions and howl and cry.

After the trip, the feed for the horses is made from soybean dregs, crushed alfalfa and corn, sprinkled with refined salt and eggs, and thoroughly stirred.

This kind of thing, in the past, the leaders of the Qianqian could not eat it during the New Year.

As for what the cavalry eats, it is infinitely closer to the nomadic tribes, mainly cheese and jerky.

Li Yunze vigorously developed animal husbandry, not only raising horses, but also raising more cattle and sheep.

There were more than 10 sacks of grain filled with sweetened cheese and salted jerky, which were transported by a pack horse.

As for morale, needless to say, the soldiers of the Han army have been looking forward to fighting for many years.

Fight, and you have to fight hard, the best kind until the sky and the earth crack.

After years of accumulating and cultivating internal strength, it is finally time to burst out at this moment.

Huo Qubing first joined the Yulin Army in Shanglin Yuan, and then traveled all the way west to Longxi County.

The tens of thousands of troops under his command had already been dispatched in batches, and Huo Qubing was the last to set off.

After all, although the road traffic system has been greatly improved, it is not enough to accommodate tens of thousands of troops at one time.

A march of this magnitude was carried out in batches, each arriving at the appointed place at a specified time.

The so-called delay in the military period refers to this kind of failure to arrive on time.

Along the way, they encountered counties, counties, and market towns, and all the units of the army were either in a hurry or on the way to the road.

Huo Qubing led the troops to fight for the first time, so he naturally needed to stand up, and whoever dared to delay the military period at this time would inevitably be used to scare the monkeys.

One man and five horses, six hundred miles in three days, and one thousand miles in five days.

On the seventh day, Huo Qubing arrived at Lingjusai (Lanzhou) with the Yulin army.

Along the way, due to the rapid march, a lot of horses were lost.

But it doesn't matter, Shaofu has the largest horse herding supervisor in the entire Han Dynasty at this time.

There are at least 100,000 horses in captivity in the many horse farms around Lingjusai, and tens of thousands of horses can be provided for military use at any time.

Huo Quai's illness was not ambiguous, he repaired it for two days, asked for 30,000 horses from various horse farms, and after distributing the various departments, he set out on the journey again.

After Lingjusai is the Yellow River, where the Han built a pontoon bridge across the Yellow River.

Tens of thousands of cavalry and an even larger herd of pack horses crossed the Yellow River.

On the other side of the river, you can see the majestic Qilian Mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, there is an endless green grassland.

Herdsmen drove herds of cattle and sheep leisurely on the grassland.

When the earth began to tremble slightly, the herdsmen were shocked to see the Han cavalry surging like a tide!
