Chapter 107: Expedition

Chapter 107 Go to war [asking for votes]

"Your Majesty, I also asked the veteran to lead an army from Chang'an and rush to Yingchuan County as Huo Hou said."

Li Guang also wanted to participate in countering the rebellion and spoke again.

"I am mainly focused on curing diseases, and other methods are also subject to his requirements."

Liu Che knew military affairs and had no two generals in his army. Huo Qubing was the chief general, and the other generals had to listen to his orders.

Li Guang turned to look at Huo Qubing.

Li Guang, an old general, likes to get lost, but if he doesn't go to the grasslands and the Western Regions, it won't be a big problem. And although Li Guang is somewhat overrated in later generations, he is actually considered a general of the dynasty, as long as he is not allowed to lead troops to attack long distances.

Thoughts flashed in Huo Qubing's mind.

The Han military also had Shantou factions.

Wei Qing actually represents the emerging forces in the military. After all, he himself is only in his thirties.

Liu Xiangluo showed a wonderful and inspiring expression: "That girl is so beautiful. I have seen countless girls, but no one is more delicate and beautiful than this girl. Uh... Princess Pingxian may be better than her. But if this girl passes

In the past few years, my beauty will continue to improve..."

Huo Qubing was the only one left in the study.

Liu Xiang's expression changed in shock: "It's so serious."

"My little girl wants to come over and personally thank Huo Hou for his help," Zhuo Huai said again.

Zhuo Qingke glanced shyly at Huo Qubing and said in a soft voice, "I thank Huo Hou for saving my life."

Huo Qubing came out of the study and went to the guard hall to handle various military affairs. He only waited for other troops to leave first before taking his own troops to the expedition.

Liu Che took it in his hand, looked at it, and glanced at Huo Qubing.

Zhuo Huai said very appropriate auspicious words: "It's rare that Huo Hou is free today, so he comes to visit without permission. It's better not to appear presumptuous."

Princess Pingyang curled her lips and said nothing.

What a Pinghuai policy... Li Cai withdrew his gaze and retreated with the ministers.

Huo Qubing agreed, collected the ancient jade, and began to practice.

"I won't read it anymore. We will discuss this matter when we return from Huainan." Huo Qubing said.

The key is that she doesn't want to play it herself, and she still feels some inexplicable joy.

I don't know the content of Ping Huai Ce, but after the ministers left, they talked about it a lot, and I think it was good.

Liu Che laughed dumbly: "Okay, you go."

Since Your Majesty relies heavily on him, and Wei Zifu is in charge of the palace, if you conflict with him at this time, the only one who will suffer is you."

"Please ask General Li to lead the left army out of Chang'an and rush to Yingchuan, and then continue eastward to Huaiyang. You are allowed to lead eight thousand troops and leave Chang'an within four days. You don't need to carry more food, grass and baggage. If there are any missing items, you can replenish them locally.

"Is there any problem with General Li?" Huo Qubing asked.

The kings of the various tribes under his tent include King Hunxie, King Xiutu, Shanyu's eldest son Langduo, King Zhelan, King Luhou, Shan Huan, King Qitu and others, who can be ranked among the top ten.

"I am not trying to protect him. Zhang Cigong is a brave general who can charge into battle. He must take the lead in every battle.

Liu Che and Huo Qubing also knew a lot about the Xiongnu, but from different perspectives. Listening to Dong Zhongshu's description and comparing it with what they knew was a new understanding.

With her bad reputation, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to marry into a good family again."

Take King Zhelan as an example. He commanded the Zhelan Cavalry across the grassland, which was passed down from generation to generation. In the early years, his ancestor led that generation of Zhelan Cavalry to defeat most of the grasslands such as Dayuezhi and Donghu. He ruled the grassland for the Xiongnu and set a precedent.

Irreplaceable contribution.”

The list of generals now presented has to be jointly discussed as agreed last time, and then it is the turn of Huo Qubing and Wei Qing, two contemporary military strategists, as well as the emperor, Dong Fuzi and others to decide on the final selection.

Dong Zhongshu straightened his back, paying great attention to Huo Qubing's question, and responded with an attitude of answering questions: "Huo Hou, please tell me."

Across the way, Huo Qubing felt the fluctuation of ancient jade and was stunned when he heard Liu Qing's voice.

But after Huo Qubing passed away, he even came up with the Pinghuai policy, which was not only adopted by His Majesty, but also supported by all the ministers.

The soldiers who had sent the message themselves went to issue military orders to Zhang Cigong.

Huo Qubing knew that Liu Che was not a stupid emperor, and there was a limit to how much he could be trusted.

"Okay, I will transfer Zhang Cigong to your command. If he makes another mistake, I will not let him go lightly."

After Huo Qubing issued a series of general orders, the arrangements were completed.

Next to her was Princess Pingyang, wearing a satin purple skirt, with a graceful manner, and said:

"The news I just learned is that there is turmoil in Huainan. After the court meeting ended today, the ministers gathered in His Majesty's study to discuss matters. Everyone had their own opinions and argued with each other.

"The rest include the troops under the King of the Huns' tent, led by Lang Duo, the son of the Great Chanyu. They are also one of the strongest troops and have the largest number, up to more than 100,000 people. If they gather with all their strength, they can reach around 150,000 people.

, so he is able to suppress the Xiongnu tribes."

Huo Qubing shook his head and said: "Zhang Cigong is my uncle's favorite general, I don't want him."

"My little girl is going to stay, and she is about to ask Huo Hou for advice on how to resettle her.

The girl's slender and thick eyelashes were straight up and her eyes were shining. She was looking at the layout of the Huo Mansion with deep curiosity.

He was ambitious and made great aspirations when he came to the throne. The powerful Xiongnu was just one of the barbarians in his eyes.

Huo Qubing interrupted: "No one is allowed to say anything about seeing this woman in my house. Otherwise, the monthly transaction will be terminated."

Her sitting posture is the most standard kneeling position, with her thighs and calves stacked on top of each other. Under her clothes, a girl's tight and round legs are vaguely visible. On her feet are flip-up shoes decorated with blue moiré patterns, and her stockings are white.

He wanted to conquer all the barbarians, conquer the vast mountains and rivers, create something unprecedented in history, and make contributions to the three emperors.

The master took out a bamboo slip, on which he listed a list of generals who were qualified to enter the military mansion from the Spring and Autumn Period to the present.

Changle Palace.

There are very few people who know such detailed information as he does.

"In addition, the Xiongnu also has a tribe called the Tianhun tribe.

Master Dong understood that the emperor was seeing off guests, so he immediately stood up to perform the ceremony, and then left.

The sky was dark.

Visiting Huo Mansion were Prime Minister Liu, Song Ran, Zhuo Huai, the head of the Zhuo clan, and his daughter Zhuo Qingke.

"In order to make the military palace slips, Master must have studied all the generals of the past dynasties. I wonder if Master has any control over the current foreign troops, such as the Xiongnu tribes?" Huo Qubing asked.

"Sir, there are visitors in the house. They have been waiting in the front hall for some time."

Liu Che said: "The military mansion slips submitted by Master will be discussed together when Qubing comes back from the expedition."

Dong Zhongshu smiled, few people could figure out the strength of each Xiongnu tribe.

Huo Qubing ignored him and went to his back house to prepare for practice.

Princess Longlu snorted coldly: "Wei Zifu was originally recommended to the palace by my sister, but now he still listens to you? Don't you have any way to control the Wei family and let him be so rampant?"

Later, Song Ran and his daughter Zhuo came out of the Huo Mansion, quietly got on the carriage, and secretly took Zhuo Qingke back to the Secret Detective Liang Garden.

The last time Huo Hou attacked the Xiongnu, Qu Meng who he killed in a famous battle was King Yougu Li of the Xiongnu, and he could barely be ranked among the top ten.

Sitting at the guest seat was Song Ran, who was dressed in dark undercover clothes. Next to her was a charming girl with delicate features and a complexion like a newly peeled willow. She was Zhuo Qingke.

"Qu Bing, that girl just now, I heard from Mrs. Zhuo that she wanted to marry you, didn't you understand?"

————

"After some time, when things in Huainan settle down, I will have someone file a civil complaint to clear Zhuo's name."

"Do you want to protect Zhang Cigong?"

Among these people, King Zhelan, King Hunxie, and King Xiutu were the stronger ones.

Your Majesty has great ambitions, and wants all the barbarians to surrender and establish a foundation that will last forever. It is not enough to have ministers and uncles. Good generals are hard to find, so I ask for your mercy."

"You came to see me for business."

Liu Che thought for a while and decided to wait until he came back from the expedition before discussing the marriage to Liu Qing, the contemporary pearl of the clan.

Princess Longlu's eyes were fierce: "Sister, you came here just to persuade me to endure my anger? My son was beaten by him, and I don't believe that no one can cure him. Don't think that my lineage, Longluhou, is easy to bully!"

Huo Qubing walked in from outside, and Liu Xiang, Zhuo Qingke, Zhuo Huai, and Song Ran stood up at the same time to greet him.

"The Xiongnu Great Chanyu has about ten generals under his command. They are able to conquer and dare to fight. They are called good generals and famous generals.

What he meant was that Zhuo Qingke became Liu Qian's concubine because of being replaced by someone. Her reputation spread and she could not marry anyone else. There was another layer of meaning that was hidden and could not be said directly.

So Zhuo Huai and Zhuo Qingke were brought by Song Ran.

"No!" Li Guangda said loudly.

In fact, Zhuo wanted to take the opportunity to get close to her.

Now everyone in Chang'an knows that my young daughter, the Zhuo family, was taken as a concubine by Liu Qian and brought back to Huainan.

Dong Zhongshu talked eloquently:

Zhuo Huai said: "It's not appropriate to go back to my house. It's not easy for Huainan to know about it right now, otherwise it will be a big deal." After saying this, he looked at Liu Xiang.

The young man among them seemed to be unable to conceal his sharpness even with the gloomy rain outside the window.

Liu Xiang did not expect to meet such a pretty girl this time when he came to Huo Mansion, and his face was full of surprise.

Considering this aspect, Huo Qubing should also bring Li Guang to play with him, which can reduce some unnecessary resistance.

The study became quiet again.

Previously, Song Ran had hired a prostitute as a spy and asked Liu Qian to do it for free and to get information. The real Zhuo Qingke was taken undercover by Song Ran.

Qin Qingyu came to see her twice, and seemed to have some vague understanding, so she stopped caring about her.

"I have something to ask Master." Huo Qubing said.

Its leader, General Yudu, is rumored to have reached the supreme state of the Huns' three souls becoming one. He can activate the Huns' life souls to fight, go between life and death, and is unmatched by anyone in the world."

He had an affair with Liu Ling, had been implicated in some way, and was waiting to be punished. Naturally, he was not qualified to attend such an occasion.

Seeing the evening, Liu Qing couldn't help but take out the ancient message jade. After pondering for a while, he mustered up the courage and said to the ancient jade: "Go to bed. I heard from the maid this afternoon that someone in the palace is talking about you going on an expedition again."

?”

"The Zhelan Cavalry has a heroic saying of crossing the grassland for thirty thousand miles and sweeping three thousand tribes across the grassland. It is one of the four powerful armies of the Xiongnu."

This voice... doesn't seem right... there are some unspeakable changes compared to usual.

After Liu Qing met Emperor Liu Che, he came back and sat in the palace. He didn't move for a long time, his eyes were bright, and there seemed to be a straight figure lingering in front of him.

Huo Qubing motioned for several people to take their seats and then went to the main seat on his own.

Changle Palace, Pingxing Palace.

————

Huo Qubing said: "Master is indeed knowledgeable."

Go away from illness, Master Dong will stay."

Liu Che then said: "All the ministries are cooperating in the expedition, and there must be no mistakes. Okay, you all go.

Zhang Cigong had just returned from Beiguan.

Liu Che looked at Dong Zhongshu.

It's just a first draft right now, and it's in vain. It has no decisive effect.

Unexpectedly, after they arrived, they met Liu Xiang and also came. Song Ran was secretly regretting it, fearing that Zhuo Qingke's whereabouts would be exposed, Huainan would know, and the life of the prostitute spy would be ruined.

Dong Zhongshu stroked his beard with one hand: "I have done a rough study of the generals of the surrounding barbarians, so I will talk to Huo Hou."

"I sent another message to Zhang Cigong, asking him to mobilize 8,000 troops from the Northern Army, leave Chang'an, and go with General Li Guang, and then go to Yingchuan County and then go south." Huo Qubing said again.

"After Huo Hou went to conquer the Xiongnu, he wanted to pay a visit and congratulate him."

During this time, she lived with Zhuo Qingke, and the two now have a good relationship.

Li Guang is an old man, including some elders in the clan, and they all agree more with Li Guang.

It means seeing off guests.

Before Li Cai and other ministers left, they all glanced at Dong Zhongshu and Huo Qubing, who were sitting on the left and right of the emperor. One was civil, one was military, one was old and the other was young.

Zhuo Huai glanced at Huo Qubing.

Huo Qubing's words just tickled Liu Che's nerves.

Huo Qubing took his ambitions as a prefix, not on his own initiative, so Liu Che was quite pleased with what he heard.

"I have to ask Marquis Huo how Qing Ke should be resettled. You can't stay at my place forever," Song Ran said.

Huo Qubing said calmly: "I will be going out with my troops in the next few days. If there is anything else, please wait until I come back."

When Huo Qubing returned to the mansion, his old servant Yan Qi was waiting at the door and followed him into the mansion.

Now that Liu Ling was imprisoned and Liu Qian left Chang'an, the Huainan clan had openly shown their rebellion and no longer had any influence in Chang'an. Song Ran followed Zhuo Qingke's request and secretly took her to the Huo Mansion, hoping to thank Huo Qubing.

The initial support for Zhuo.

The days flew by.

Li Guang and the troops commanded by Zhang Cigong had left Chang'an two days ago.

Early that morning, it was time for Huo Qubing to set off on his southern expedition.
