Chapter Thirty-Four: Eight Hundred Cavalrymen Huo Qubing
As an emperor, Xia Yan's words are indeed effective.
Just saying this lightly, the people below waved their sleeves reluctantly and finally gave up.
However, Xia Yan still noticed that several people were still looking at Huo Qubing from time to time.
This look is like a prospective father-in-law looking at a prospective son-in-law.
Xia Yan just smiled helplessly, and then said: "Prime Minister Zhuge, General Huo, can you tell me how you defeated your opponent?"
Although I already have a new plan, I still need to examine myself three times every day.
Now I need to reflect carefully on what accident happened that caused me to defeat Yu State in such a confused way.
Hearing what Xia Yan said, Zhuge Liang and Huo Qubing looked at each other for a long time, and finally decided that Zhuge Liang would report.
"Your Majesty, it's all because I, Daxia, accept the destiny of heaven and respond to the people's support, so..."
"…….speak English."
"Oh... we attacked from both sides and killed their coach Lin Tianba. Their morale was low and they gave up resistance."
After hearing this, Xia Yan almost couldn't swallow his breath.
"You have 30,000 people and they have 60,000 people. Are you going to flank them?"
Having said this, Huo Qubing couldn't help it anymore and spoke directly.
"They are very weak at the back. That Lin Tianba is at the back. If I lead someone to stab them, they will explode."
"Then the remaining 30,000 people surrendered."
After hearing this, Xia Yan felt very uncomfortable.
You stabbed someone in the back, and you stabbed their commander to death with one fatal shot. How can their troops not be in chaos?
But after thinking about it, I still shouldn’t. After all, the number of people is only about half of the other person’s. How can you still go around and stab the other person’s back...
Moreover, even if Huo Qubing led his men to go around the rear, Zhuge Liang and his men in front were still fighting with the people of Yu State.
The soldiers of Yu State are all well-equipped, and many of them are armed with a few broken wooden sticks. Logically speaking, they will definitely suffer heavy losses in hand-to-hand combat.
But now judging from the battle report, our battle losses are very small. What the hell is going on?
Obviously, Huo Qubing below also saw what Xia Yan was thinking.
"Your Majesty, it's because of Hua Zi."
"Hua Zi?"
Xia Yan was stunned, what kind of situation is this?
"We have done experiments and found that smoking Huazi for a long time can enhance the combat effectiveness of soldiers. Many soldiers who did not know how to box or kick have greatly improved their physical fitness after smoking Huazi for a few days. Some of them can even fight alone.
Two people!"
After hearing this, a group of old men nodded in agreement.
"Not bad, I feel it too. No wonder my health has gotten better recently!"
"That's right, I feel the same way."
Xia Yan almost died on the spot after hearing this.
What the hell, is there such a thing?
Huazi can actually improve his physical fitness? He also promotes it to the whole army. This is just a sin!
Because of the system's regulations, after proposing a policy, you are not allowed to change it without collective opposition from the ministers.
In other words, the whole army needs to stick to the fact that Huazi is the standard in the future.
Before Xia Yan could cover his eyes, Huo Qubing made another shocking statement.
"It is precisely because of this that I defeated their rear army and only brought 800 cavalry."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room widened their eyes and looked at Huo Qubing with disbelief.
On the side, Zhuge Liang whipped Huazi, fanned his Lunyu fan and nodded silently. This was considered a sideways response.
Seeing this scene, the admiration in the eyes of a group of old men began to grow even more.
"It's true that heroes come from young. What can 800 people do? Xiao Huo can actually lead 800 people to kill the coach!"
"Yes, yes, I said at the beginning that Xiao Huo is a dragon and a phoenix among men. He is definitely the most talented person in our country, second only to His Majesty!"
"Good fellow, you said His Majesty was a foolish king a few days ago, have you forgotten?"
"You old thing, you still said to me that you were louder than me when you scolded His Majesty as a coward!"
“&!%@%!@(!!@)……”
Xia Yan looked at a group of old men and shook his head helplessly.
Are you really an emperor?
The old eunuch doesn't do anything for him, and even his ministers don't have to be jealous of him.
If you want to scold yourself as a coward, you can scold him at any time, and you can scold him in front of him. This emperor is really good at it.
But unfortunately, I can't punish them for this, otherwise it will be judged as a foul.
But fortunately, I am still working hard. Those who achieve great things should not stick to trivial matters. These small episodes are not important before the goal is achieved.
Soon, Xia Yan glanced at Huo Qubing.
This Bodhisattva is not an easy man. He even led eight hundred cavalry to destroy the enemy's rear and kill the commander.
Xia Yan actually wanted to say to Huo Qubing, the person you are facing is not the Huns, so you don't have to be so aggressive!
But obviously, it is impossible to say this.
But now I finally figured out that the main reason for my failure was Huo Qubing's theft, which was a bit gratifying.
You, Huo Qubing, are very capable, but you can only take care of one end, not both sides.
Of course, we still need to have a good argument with these old men next.
Only by completely convincing these old men can he truly complete his plan.
"My dear friends, I have a decision."
Hearing this, all the uncles' faces showed expressions of anticipation.
"Oh? Your Majesty has made a decision again. Please tell me quickly. We will definitely not say that you are a fool this time!"
"Yes, yes, His Majesty's decisions have miraculous results every time. We all see it, just say it!"
Seeing this, Xia Yan stopped being polite and began to tell his plan with a smile.
"In addition to the Yu State that has been occupied by us, there are five remaining countries in the surrounding area, right."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ming's face instantly showed a smile.
Because in his opinion, he had seen through what the little emperor was thinking.
There is no doubt that Daxia's national power has greatly increased after occupying Yu State. It is time to think about the next goal.
Obviously, I am an expert in this area!
"Yes, they are Xi Kingdom, Xuanwu Dynasty, Zhu Kingdom, Yue Kingdom, and Changxing Kingdom."
At this point, Zhu Ming seemed to be trying to show off his understanding of the surroundings and his thorough analysis of His Majesty the Emperor's thoughts, so he continued to talk.
"The most powerful among them is the Xi Kingdom. This is a giant that we cannot afford to offend for the time being."
"The two countries Yue and Changxing have extremely close relations with each other. Attacking one of them would be equivalent to attacking both countries, so it is not appropriate to take action."
"The Xuanwu Dynasty, the empire's strength is not strong, and the army only has less than 20,000 people, but they have one of the most troublesome things."
Hearing that it was the most troublesome thing, Xia Yan deliberately frowned and asked, "What's the trouble?"
"Everyone in this country practices martial arts and regards martial arts as their destiny. Even ordinary people in the city will practice boxing, swordsmanship, etc. It is precisely because of this that there are many martial arts masters in the Xuanwu Dynasty."
"According to legend, many of these masters are at the master level, and some even claim that a long sword can fight a hundred people. Such a person can be said to be a murderous weapon in the world."
"On weekdays, each of these martial arts masters live in seclusion in the mountains, but if our family and country are in trouble, each of these people might become our resistance."
"Therefore, in my opinion, this Xuanwu Dynasty is not suitable for attacking now. The only one that is really suitable for attacking now is the Zhu Kingdom!"
The explanation is roughly similar to the reasons given by the system.
The strength of Zhuguo is currently the weakest among the five countries, and there are no allies around Zhuguo to support it.
In addition, the morale of the soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty is now high, so if they really choose to launch a war against the Zhu Kingdom at this moment, the probability of victory is extremely high.
Xia Yan listened to Zhu Ming's speech with a satisfied smile on his face.
I have to say that although this old man seems a little unreliable on weekdays, his analysis is still sound.
If it were other emperors, they would definitely follow this plan.
But unfortunately, the current emperor is himself... This chapter has been completed!
