Xiao Huang Xin said, I'm afraid that the competition for favor is coming.

Qin Tian ignored the confrontation between the two of them, but turned around and flew down.

"This place is very beneficial to my cultivation, you can play on your own, and when I wake up, I will naturally call you along."

Tan Xin Fu nodded again and again.

After explaining, Qin Tian closed his eyes and began to appreciate the wonders of this place.

This kind of natural formation formed by the right time, place and people is very rare, so Qin Tian is ready to have a good feeling.

That's right, in Qin Tian's eyes, this is a natural formation!

Since his cultivation, everything Qin Tian has done according to his heart, at most he has carved a few talismans, and he has never borrowed foreign objects.

But the formation that naturally formed between heaven and earth in front of him gave Qin Tian a lot of inspiration.

Perhaps there are many times when casting spells without so much effort.

Relying on the environment of heaven and earth itself, or even by changing the surrounding environment, the effect of the formation can be achieved!

All formations, in fact, are nothing more than the five elements of yin and yang.

And in addition to the balance of yin and yang here, after in-depth understanding, Qin Tian also found that this place is secretly combined with the five elements, and the gold, wood, water, fire, and earth are actually the same!

It was a bonus.

Seeing that Qin Tian was immersed in cultivation, Tan Xinfu didn't dare to disturb, just watched from afar.

However, Xiao Huang is familiar with Qin Tian's state.

After getting off Qin Tian's body, Xiao Huang stretched his waist and planned to leave.

But she was immediately caught by Tan Xinfu.

"Good, adults are cultivating, you can't run around!"

Xiao Huang rolled his eyes: Stupid human, my master doesn't need to watch from the side.

I thought that I could easily get out of the control of this stupid woman with a casual struggle, but soon a crispy and numb feeling came from the tail, and Xiao Huang's body suddenly went limp, and he didn't want to move.

How could this stupid woman touch it...... So comfortable?

Xiao Huang narrowed his eyes, and soon shrank into Tan Xinfu's arms, motionless.

Seeing that Xiao Huang was appeased by himself, a smug smile appeared on Tan Xinfu's face.

When she was alive, her favorite thing was all kinds of small animals, puppies and kittens, and she had a lot of them at home.

But then he became seriously ill and never saw his little pets again.

"It's been so many years, and my craft is still unfamiliar!"

At first, Tan Xinfu was still guarding Qin Tian's side, but after a month, he found that Qin Tian was still so motionless, and there was no filth on his body.

Tan Xinfu finally understood that Qin Tian really didn't need someone to protect the Fa.

In the past month, she and Xiao Huang have also become acquainted, and the harmony between the two seems to be sisters.

Under the leadership of Xiao Huang, the two of them went to settle in a small mountain village at the foot of the mountain.

The small mountain village occasionally has merchants coming and going, and the days are not boring.

The excuse for talking to me was to come to relatives, but I don't know why the village was abandoned.

It has been decades since the village was abandoned, and the people in the village basically have no memory of what happened at that time.

But seeing that Tan Xin was pitiful, he rented her a house in the village and let her live in it first.

said that it was rented to her, but in fact, it didn't confiscate any money, which was almost equivalent to giving it away for nothing.

Anyway, there was no one living in that house, and it belonged to the old house of an old man who didn't know which one before.

Soon, Tan Xinfu got into a relationship with the people in the village.

If she really wants to say it, everyone in this village has been raised by her, so she naturally knows the preferences of each of them.

If you want to get acquainted with the people of this village, it is not too easy.

This kind of experience also fascinates Tan Xin Fu.

Because it was a feeling he had never experienced before or after his death.

In this small village, the two of them have a good time.

In the blink of an eye, three years have passed in a flash, and Tan Xinfu seems to be completely accustomed to life as a human being.

In the past three years, she has been like a fish in water in the village, and many people have fallen in love with her.

Because Tan Xinfu is not only good-looking, but also has no eldest lady's shelf at all, he actually opened a piece of land by himself, and he also planted vegetables in the back of the yard.

She alone managed this small family in an orderly manner.

Who doesn't like a good-looking daughter-in-law who can work, how many people want to come to the door to propose.

The reason for Tanxinfu's refusal is also very simple, he has not found his relatives and family, and he can't make his own decisions, so he has to wait for his family to come back.

Relying on this method, Tanxinfu rejected countless people who came to propose marriage.

……

"A big victory, a big victory!"

The battle report from the front line was transmitted back to Chang'an City, and countless people celebrated it!

As early as two years ago, Huo Quai, who had just turned 20, was promoted to hussar general.

With the help of Wei Qing, he successfully commanded the Battle of Hexi in succession, capturing tens of thousands of Huns!

In addition, he also took Qilian Mountain directly, and after two wars, Huo Qubing annihilated and surrendered nearly 100,000 Xiongnu in Hexi.

You must know that the entire Xiongnu tribe is only 2 million people, and there are 100,000 fewer people at once, and the entire right part of the Xiongnu has been hit hard.

The handling of these 100,000 people was also a difficult problem, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought for a long time, and separated the Xiongnu people outside the border fortress, made them settle, and assimilated them into the people of the Han Dynasty.

Later, five subject states were set up, and it didn't take long for four counties in Hexi to be set up in the original place.

The emergence of these places is a good communication between the interior and the Western Regions, and has a very significant impact on the growth and decline of the Western Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu forces.

Having mastered these places, the power of the Xiongnu declined more and more, and the Han Dynasty gained an advantage on the battlefield.

But the Huns still have the strength to fight, and they have not been completely defeated!

However, just this year, Huo Qubing and Wei Qing led the army deep into Mobei, and eliminated more than 70,000 people in the main force of Zuo Xianwang's army among the Xiongnu in the Battle of Mobei!

Not only that, but they even pursued the Xiongnu army to the Wolf Juxu Mountain and Guyan Mountain.

This is not the most excessive, the most excessive thing is that these two people "share the sacrifice of heaven and earth, and return to the Hanhai"!

And this battle is the wolf Juxu that everyone in later generations is familiar with!

The significance of this battle is undoubtedly very significant, judging from the results alone, this battle made "the Huns flee far away, and there is no royal court in Monan." ”

This also means that the Xiongnu are no longer a threat to the Han!

The troubles of the Xiongnu in the north have finally been pacified after a hundred years!

In this regard, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was happy.

"Add an official to the knighthood, you must add an official to Huo Quai!"

"Feng Da Sima Hussar General!" Liu Che said excitedly.

If it weren't for the fear that there would be no seals in the future, Liu Che would now want to directly give Huo Quzhi a full treatment!

You must know that Huo Quzhi is only twenty-two years old this year!

And the Great Sima Hussar General is already the highest rank of military attaché, if it goes up further, it is really one person under ten thousand people!

Although they are also all meritorious services, except for Huo Quai, the others have hardly been rewarded, especially Wei Qing, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty basically ignored him.

Of course, Wei Qing knew why, so naturally he wouldn't say much.

In fact, although the results of this expedition were very rich, the losses of the Han army were also very serious!

The greatest result of the Battle of Mobei was to defeat the main force of the Xiongnu in the south of the desert, causing the Xiongnu to gradually migrate to the northwest, and ensuring that the Xiongnu would never have any southward strength for more than ten years.

In addition, the Han army also occupied a large area of land west of Shuofang to Zhangye and Juyan!

And this greatly guaranteed the safety of the Hexi Corridor, so that the Xiongnu were no longer able to invade!

But at the same time, the losses of the Han army were also huge!

It can even be said to be a pyrrhic victory, which is almost equivalent to losing both.

Speaking of horses alone, of the 140,000 horses that went out this time, only more than 30,000 returned after the end of the war.

There is also that soldier, there are a total of 500,000 foot soldiers on this expedition as a logistics supply corps, and Wei Qing and Huo Qubing led 50,000 cavalry respectively!

In addition, there were more than 100,000 infantry and troops transporting supplies.

After the end of the war, the losses of the Han army were also very heavy, with more than 100,000 dead and wounded!

Among them, the cost of transporting weapons, armor, and other materials by land and water is not included in the calculation.

This leads to a very serious consequence.

If you win the battle, you have to give a reward, you have to give compensation to the soldiers who died in the battle, and when the war horse dies, you have to supplement the war horse to supplement the combat effectiveness.

What is the result of such a large loss? It was the entire Han Dynasty who poured out the money and taxes from the treasury, but it was still not enough to reward the soldiers!

Helplessly, in order to raise military funds, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty actually set up a martial arts lord!

What is a martial arts knight, to put it bluntly, it is to spend money to buy a knighthood and spend money to buy an official!

From this, it is enough to see how empty the treasury of Dahan is now!

This way of raising military expenses will only greatly reduce the prestige and credibility of the imperial court, but even so, Emperor Wu of Han still has no intention of repenting.

The income brought by Wugong Jue blinded his eyes, what he wanted was not that the Huns would not dare to attack, but to completely solve the Huns once and for all!

The Xiongnu were frightened and beaten away, but the root cause problem was not solved, which Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty saw very clearly.

If you give the other party a decade or two, the Huns will definitely be able to make a comeback!

Even if the other party's vitality is greatly damaged at that time, it will definitely not be the opponent of the Han Dynasty, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty does not want to give up the conquest of the Xiongnu at all!

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't even wait for Wei Qing and Huo Qu to come back from illness, and he had already begun to prepare to start conscription again and prepare for the next war!

This made Wei Qing and Huo Quzhi have a bad premonition in their hearts.

Especially Huo Qu's illness, his heart is even more depressed.

won the battle, but Huo Qubing was not happy at all.

Their mayor Sun is so bad, what can they do if they beat the enemy and flee?

There was no winner in this war, so Huo Qubing was not happy at all.

The most important thing is, maybe it's because of the bounty? Maybe it's for other reasons, my uncle has become more and more estranged from him in the past few years!

The two seem to have become a pure superior-subordinate relationship, not even inferior to superior-inferior!

Someone told him that maybe Wei Qing was jealous of his merits, and jealous that His Majesty rewarded Huo Qu for his illness and did not reward him!

Huo Qu was sick even if he let people hang this guy and smoke it, and then scolded.

"Stir up trouble between me and my uncle, damn it!"

There was another thing that happened during this period.

Li Guang's son Li Dang followed Huo Qubing to fight and was reused by Huo Quai, but later Li Guang committed suicide and did not achieve his wish to be a marquis until he died.

Li Dang blamed Wei Qing for it, and later rushed into the army and injured Wei Qing.

Wei Qing did not make a public announcement.

First, this person was Huo Quai's subordinate, he was not good at trespassing, so he helped Huo Qubing discipline his subordinates.

Second, Li Guang's death is indeed not very glorious.

died like this, Mo said that it was his biological son Li Dang, and even Wei Qing himself felt very unhappy.

Anyway, it's a fierce general, although sometimes it's a little unreliable.

So Wei Qing has been silent.

But I don't know how, but it reached Huo Quai's ears.

Huo Quzhi was young and vigorous, where could he endure this, he had a conflict with Li Kang during a hunt, and later he was even more angry, and shot Li Kang directly!

Before the news could spread, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty suppressed it, and announced that Li Dang was accidentally hit by a deer while hunting!

Such news is really ridiculous and generous!

It is precisely because of this incident that Huo Quzhi's reputation in the army seems to be a little bad.

The crowd was not angry that he killed the hero who had been following him, everyone just felt worthless for Li Dang.

Obviously, his father died, he was angry, and he vented, but Wei Qing didn't say anything, your nephew, who had a bad relationship with him, was rushing to tie up with others!

It is no secret that the relationship between Wei Qing and Huo Qubing is not good in the army, so everyone does not understand Huo Quzhi's approach.

Your uncle doesn't want to talk to you more, so why do you hold on? According to the speed at which Huo Qubing obtains combat exploits, sooner or later he will be able to catch up with Wei Qing.

At that time, he will no longer have to survive under Wei Qing's protection at all, but he can compete with Wei Qing!

Some people think that Huo Qu is seriously ill and loves justice, but some people go because they dislike Huo Qu because he is too timid, and he will only rely on his uncle's wing to survive.

Wei Qing naturally knew about these rumors, but he was very careful not to let these news reach Huo Quai's ears as much as possible.

This is the limit of what he can do as an uncle and an elder to protect his juniors.

Huo Quzhi is just a young man in his twenties, he is too young, he stands too high, and many things cannot be seen clearly.

In the future, he will really be able to take charge on his own, and he will be able to understand what he is doing today.

With different thoughts, the two finally decided to return to Chang'an City and prepare to accept the reward.

But just as the two were about to set off, the Huns' final counterattack began.

The Huns were unwilling to push out the south and the north of the desert like this, and this defeat was not what they wanted.

Therefore, they decided to launch a suicide attack one last time, on the way back from the Han army.

Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, after this time, for at least fifteen years in the future, the Xiongnu will no longer have any strength to fight back against the Han Dynasty.

In the next twenty years, it will be faster to compare the Xiongnu and the Han.

The Huns are faster, they will become the border trouble of the Han again, and the Han is faster, then the Huns will be completely lost!

Wei Qing and Huo Qubing didn't expect that the enemy would be so crazy that they would dare to go deep alone and ambush the Han army!

And they succeeded!
