Chapter 54: Lifelong Enemy

 Huo Mansion.

The big cat stared angrily at the 'silly guy' in the yard.

It felt something was wrong when it was in Changding Hall just now. It smelled that Huo Qubing had a new love.

Sure enough, when I came back, I found that my home had been robbed. It was ridiculous that I was still enjoying myself outside, but I didn't expect that there was a new person at home. No, it was a new horse!

That's right, there's a horse at home, Huo Qubing's new favorite.

The big cat felt so distressed that he couldn't describe it and felt betrayed.

It’s already so difficult for a cat to have a baby, why do we need another horse?

Previously, Huo Qubing rode to Changding Hall and returned home. Jin'an also brought him back.

Big Cat was sizing up the horse along the way. It was big and powerful, so it didn't dare to move rashly.

It was lying on the roof, staring covetously at Jin'an, who was eating high-quality forage in the stable. New love and old love occasionally stared at each other from a distance.

In the yard, Xiong San was playing with stone locks as straw stalks while watching the confrontation between the cat and the horse.

Suddenly, the big cat moved, and tentatively jumped down from the beam, landing on the back of a horse. It also wanted to ride a horse, to prove that it was the one above, to declare its sovereignty, and to teach Jinan how to be a horse.

But the big cat moves quickly, and Jinan is not slow either. He shakes his head and uses his strong neck muscles to hit the big cat.

A cat and a horse were dancing around in the stable, fighting for a long time, but there was no winner.

Xiong San was dumbfounded when he saw it, thinking that this was truly a good general among horses and a capable minister among cats, not even aggressive.

The big cat failed and fell back onto the beam.

The horse's troubles were beyond his expectation.

After testing, Big Cat has determined that this will be his lifelong enemy.

Huo Qubing came back and entered the study.

Considering that the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu were about to confront each other, he took out his pen and ink after returning, spread out a piece of straw paper, and deduce the military strength of both sides.

A complicated diagram of military formations and confrontations quickly appeared on the paper.

This is the real military calculation. In it, the general will calculate the strength of both sides, the troops and horses, including the distribution of the cities, the possible route of the Huns sending troops, how the Han will respond, or the possible response methods of the Huns when the Han sends troops.

Compare and predict.

Through this information, we can deduce the trend of the battle and the difference between the victory and defeat of both sides.

If there are people who are familiar with military affairs, they will definitely be amazed by Huo Qubing’s temple calculation method in this military map.

The conversion of offensive and defensive forces between the two sides in the picture vividly demonstrates the oppositional relationships between hardness and softness, oddness and rightness, enemy and self, and virtuality and reality in the use of troops.

After Huo Qubing's deduction, he looked at the military map and said thoughtfully: "My uncle likes to combine surprise and rightness with his troops, and he hides a fierce offensive in the stability.

The only way the Xiongnu can take advantage is to use the flexibility of the rangers to penetrate and harass our Han border gates and sneak attacks on small border towns, trying to accumulate victory.

In the next period of time, I can lead my troops to attack the inside..."

According to historical records, the upcoming Battle of Dingxiangbei will trigger two large-scale confrontations within two months.

Huo Qubing was only allowed to participate in the battle by Liu Che and Wei Qing in the second game.

But before that, he was also prepared to participate appropriately. For example, he would attack the surrounding Hun cavalry and train his troops in battle, killing two birds with one stone!

Huo Qubing thought for a moment, then took out Liu Qing's nine-star chart and sorted out his belongings.

He only had a scroll of Bingfu Slips, a scroll of Bai Qi's handwriting written by Zhuo Huai as a gift, and a round jade plate of unknown use that he obtained from destroying the Zonghengdao Mountain Gate last time.

In the past few days of practice, the breath and the Bingfu Slip have combined, and the effect is no longer as great as it was at the beginning.

Huo Qubing planned to practice again tonight and give the Bingfu Slip to Liu Che when he enters the palace tomorrow.

He packed his things and his eyes fell on the nine-star chart.

The Nine Star Chart is something handed down from ancient times. Legend has it that it contains the secret of Taoism's exploration of the great road.

The silk book depicts nine star positions, which can be passed down from the Spring and Autumn Period without being destroyed. The soft-touch brocade reminds Huo Qubing of the fairy silk used to sew heavenly clothes recorded in ancient scrolls.

According to Taoist legend, the nine-star chart corresponds to the nine major orifices of the human body, which can reveal the secrets of the human body and pursue immortality.

On the star chart Liu Qing took out, the nine stars corresponded to Tanlang, Jumen, Lucun, Wenqu, Lianzhen, Wuqu, Pojun and other stars.

The entire picture is roughly two feet square when unfolded. The stars are complex and based on nine stars, thousands of changes can occur.

There is also a portrait next to each star position, which looks like a fairy coming to the world, with simple colors.

Each person has a node corresponding to the star position.

Taken together, it looks more like a Taoist practice picture.

However, hundreds of schools of thought have studied the Nine Stars, and it is not surprising that their solutions are related to military strategists.

Dating back to the mythological period before ancient times, many things from hundreds of schools of thought have the same origin.

To others, it may be just a picture of the coexistence of stars and characters, but the moment it fell into Huo Qubing's eyes, the picture was filled with geographical changes such as mountains and rivers, and it was naturally transformed into a scene like a military confrontation.

Wisps of energy suddenly rose from the nine star positions on the picture, and the nine figures disappeared, instead, a virtual image of a battlefield with ancient charm was revealed.

"What kind of changes can be derived from this picture depending on the viewer's spiritual practice? It's really mysterious."

Huo Qubing activated the military energy in his body and sent it into the Nine Star Chart, where he collided with the power, just like two armies confronting each other.

At the same time, the ancient seal characters of several military strategists' strategies were intertwined in the military books he read in the sea, as if they were simulating the changes in the star map.

Suddenly, the Qi in the book of knowledge sea and war surged, and the energy as sharp as a knife poured into the nine-star map!

I don’t know how long it took, but there was a slight sound... The stars on the map aligned, and then disappeared. The energy flow rolled like chaos, and a new way of ranking the stars slowly appeared, which became more and more mysterious.

In the Changding Hall, Liu Qing, who was practicing, suddenly had a subtle feeling: "The first layer was untied so quickly?"

The Nine Star Chart is the inheritance of her master. She has practiced it before, so she is aware of the changes in the star chart.

Huo Qubing unlocked the first layer of the star map so quickly, which surprised her.

She immediately closed her eyes again and prepared to practice.

However, it didn't take long before she opened her eyes again. This time, she stood up directly from the cross-sitting position: "The second layer has also been unlocked..."

Liu Qing opened her mouth slightly.

As far as she knows, the Nine Star Diagram has existed in Tao Te Sect for hundreds of years, and there are only three people who can unlock the two levels overnight, one is a great Taoist sage in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the other is Wu Qi, a great military strategist in the Warring States Period.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

The third one is Huo Qubing at this time.

At first, the great sage stopped after unlocking the second layer, saying that he needed military strategists to break through the third layer of the formation.

Wu Qi also chose to give up after unlocking two layers for some reasons and did not continue to decipher the star map.

Can Huo Qubing really unlock all three levels of the star map in one day?

Liu Qing had the urge to set up his flying sword and go directly to Huo Mansion.

After thinking about it, I sat back and decided to wait.

Now in the past, Huo Qubing was taken lightly. He just said before that he couldn't untie it in one day.

The Royal Court of the Huns.

After getting up in the morning, the great Dan Yu Yizhi received new news about the Xiongnu envoy being killed in Chang'an.

The Han and Huns have been at war for many years, and the Huns are slowly infiltrating the Han. They also have reliable channels to detect news.

"... What happened that day was that Subna, after receiving the news of his brother Subhui's death, secretly left the post arranged by the Han people and wanted to attack and kill a Han general..."

It’s still the old Huns who reported last time.

Yi Zhi was sitting in the king's tent, with a calm demeanor and a low voice: "So it's because Subna killed the Han general that he angered the Han people, provoked revenge, and killed my Huns envoy?"

The old man said: "The news says...Subna failed to kill the Han general, but was killed by him instead."

"Huh?"

Yi Zhixie said unexpectedly: "Since it was Subuna who was killed, why did you kill other members of my mission?"

"The message sent did not find out the specific reason. We only know that the Han general who killed Subna then went to kill other members of the mission."

Yi Zhixie was furious: "A Han general dares to kill my Huns envoy?"

"The other party is the nephew of Han general Wei Qing, his name is Huo Qubing."

The old man continued: "In addition, he was the one who led the troops to raid and kill Subhui's tribe."

Yi Zhixie couldn't help but show a hint of shock: "It's the same person, the news...is it accurate?"

His face was full of murderous intent: "Send the order and let all parties use all their strength to kill the Han general Huo Qubing. Kill my Huns envoy. How can we allow him to live?"

At this time, a middle-aged man with a square face walked in from outside Wang's tent.

This person's complexion is dark red, and he has a weathered, calm demeanor.

He had a very strong physique and said to Yi Zhixian: "Da Chanyu, I request to personally lead the troops to kill the Han people's land to avenge our Huns warriors so that they can return to the embrace of the shaman god."

This man was King Youguli of the Xiongnu, and he was also Subhui. Subhuna’s uncle, Subhunri, was usually called Qumeng.
