South Vietnam.
In the main hall of the capital palace, the leader of the country, Zhao Yingqi, smiled at the arriving Zhao An and said, "What is General Zhao doing here?"
He was friendly to Zhao Anji, called him general, and looked eager.
Zhao Anji stayed in South Vietnam to use troops this month and made many achievements. Zhao Yingqi deliberately made friends and sent several beautiful noble daughters, hoping to get married and have in-depth communication with Zhao Anji.
"If the military order comes, my subordinates will be ordered to leave South Vietnam in half an hour.
Come and inform the king. "
Zhao Anji was dressed in battle armor and said loudly: "The doctor asked me to bring a message to the king. I hope you will behave yourself and keep your promise."
He added: "When I say goodbye, I also have a few words to say to you. The doctor has always been decisive in using troops, and the king of the country should have heard of it.
I remember that the king of the country had gone to Chang'an as a servant, and he met the doctor immediately, so he spared the king's life.
Otherwise, there would be no Nanyue in Baiyue, and there would be no Zhao family in Nanyue. I hope the ruler of the country can respect himself and live a happy life. "After saying that, he turned around and went away.
Half an hour later, Zhao Anji's imperial army left the capital of South Vietnam and rode away at a rapid pace.
At this moment, Han troops in various places were mobilized frequently.
In the body poison, Zhang Cigong, Yao Zhao, and King Hunxie also received orders.
King Hunxie was ordered to lead his troops northward to join Chief Tu's tribe.
Zhang Cigong and Yao Zhao continued to stay behind and poison themselves.
Zhang Cigong went out to patrol the camp. When he returned to the Chinese army's tent, he saw Yao Zhao writing on a piece of wood using local materials: "Write a letter home?"
Yao Zhao had been guarding the body for a long time, and his skin was tanned, but his military edge became more concise.
As he continued to fight, he became more and more skilled in the use of troops. He said with a smile: "I have been away for almost half a year and have not returned. My parents, brothers and sisters at home are probably worried about me.
Just write a letter back to say hello, and ask the embroiderer to send the content back. "
Zhang Cigong nodded and said: "Then write quickly and we will discuss the subsequent use of troops. I want you to lead the troops alone and guard here, while I will lead a group of cavalry to meet the enemy secretly."
Yao Zhao stopped writing and listened carefully.
Because he was the closest member of Huo Qubing's command, he had a special status among the various departments of the Han army. Zhang Cigong would also discuss matters with him.
In Chang'an, Chen Qing was also writing letters to his mother.
There are only two people in his family, his widowed mother and his younger sister.
Whenever he went on an expedition, the two of them would pray day and night, hoping that he would return home safely.
Chen Qing would write letters whenever he had free time, and kept all the accumulated letterheads with his comrades.
If one day he died in battle, these letters would be sent to his mother every once in a while by his comrades who stayed behind, proving that he was still alive but had just not returned from the war, so that his mother would not be able to bear the pain of losing her son.
Chen Qingfen writes quickly:
"...In the year of Renyin, when I was seven years old, the border gates of the Han Dynasty were breached by the Huns. The Huns sent troops to plunder twelve border cities.
Some Xiongnu soldiers hung our Han generals on the back of their horses and dragged them along. Blood stained the long streets. I was hiding behind the collapsed street... I remember that scene very clearly.
In the year of Wushen, when I was twelve years old, the Huns invaded the border area.
At the age of thirteen, the Huns invaded the border again...
At that time, all the young men in the city were captured by the Huns and became their slaves. The women were taken away to give birth to them and expand their tribe, and were raised like cattle and horses, while the rest, the old and the weak, were killed.
The Huns were worried about their survival, so before leaving, they set fire to the city and left no grass behind.
In the year of disaster, the river breaks out in spring and overflows into the plain. We, the Han people, do not have enough to eat, but feed on each other.
I will never forget the misery that the Huns brought to my great man.
My father was also killed by the Huns who broke into the city and put him in front of their horses to show off their military exploits.
Grandma, now that I am serving the Han army, the revenge for killing my father should be this year. The Marquis often said that the Han army should take it as its own duty to protect the family and the country. The son must fight bravely to kill the enemy and forget his mother.
Mother, there is no need to worry about her son. In this battle, Lang Zhongling will personally lead the troops. Our Han army will definitely win a great victory!
When his son returns home, he and his mother will go to pay homage to his father's grave.
I hope my mother is well and my little sister can be safe and happy. My son, please pay homage. "
Chen Qing wrapped a bamboo slip and had it delivered to his home, so as not to say goodbye to his mother in person, which would add to the sadness.
As soon as he made arrangements, the sound of drums sounded outside the tent.
That is the war drum to gather for battle!
"Hurry up, Chen Qingqi. It's time to order the troops. Your Majesty will come on stage in person. He will appoint the Commander-in-Chief as a general and prepare to go on an expedition!"
Chen Qing touched the corner of his eyes, collected his emotions, hung his sword on his waist, put on his armor and left the camp.
He glanced at the north, the Xiongnu... Our Han army is coming. Chen Qing pursed his lips, and the expression on his face turned resolute and fierce.
The hatred between the country and the family has come to a reckoning.
————
The Xiongnu were three hundred miles away from the North Pass of the Han Dynasty.
The grassland is filled with mist and the wind doesn't blow away.
A group of two thousand elite Huns soldiers and horses, hiding their whereabouts and marching secretly, arrived here.
The leader was Zhao Xin, who rebelled twice between the Han and the Huns and finally returned to the Huns.
Accompanying him was the new Great Saman Boguna.
At this time, all the Xiongnu tribesmen, including Zhao Xin, looked at Boguna in awe.
Their team used ox-horses to pull dozens of carts.
The cart was full of dead cattle, horses and sheep, as well as the corpses of Han slaves that the Huns had looted and slaughtered in the past.
All the corpses were stripped naked, and the dead cattle and sheep were still staring with white eyes. The scene was inexplicably ferocious.
The shamanic incantations outlined in blood on the corpses of cattle, horses and Han people were densely packed and shocking.
Xin Zhao frowned and said, "Great Shaman, what method did you use?"
Boguna said gloomily: "The ancient witchcraft in shamanism was brought back by Yudu this time. It comes from the ancient inheritance of the shaman god."
"Burying the carcasses of these livestock, cattle, horses and sheep into the ground, and using the power of the shaman to activate them, will form a barrier. As long as the Han people march into the grassland and pass here, they will be infected with this witchcraft atmosphere. Horses and people will all Death from ulcers all over his body.
And this kind of witchcraft has a long hiding period.
Some Han people and their war horses were fine at the time, but after a while, after returning to Han, they would break out and spread to other Han people. The Han people will have no peace and endless troubles. "
"This battle is about life and death. Let the Han people have a taste of my shamanic skills."
Boguna ordered people to dig a pit and throw the corpses of cattle, horses and people in. He also used the skull as a container to mix the blood of the dead with the rotting flesh and blood of livestock and sprinkle it on the corpses in the pit.
After refilling the soil and camouflaging it, hollow bones were inserted into the ground and exposed to the surface like pores.
Boguna muttered something, and a stream of bloody and black aura quickly rose from the ground, blending into the void, and finally became intangible.
"Let's go to the next place."
Xin Zhao rode his horse to accompany him: "The upcoming war makes me a little uneasy. Does the shaman have any revelations?"
Boguna said firmly: "Don't worry, everything is under the general's control.
General Yudu has sent out several groups of troops. The earliest group has been away from the camp for half a month. The victory of this battle must belong to our grassland tribes. "
Zhao Xin said: "The champion used to use troops to attack the enemy's heart and soul..."
Boguna waved his hand and said: "Are you worried that he will attack the royal court of the Great Chanyu again?
Some things may work once, but will not work again. You can think of it, how could the general not know this?
This time, Youdu had already made arrangements, and the Great Chanyu was not in the royal court at all.
The Royal Court is a trap. If the Han army reaches the Royal Court, they will not only miss the enemy but also suffer heavy losses. "
"Besides, the general's vanguard team should have already taken action. It's hard to say whether the Han people will have the strength to counterattack by then."
Boguna raised his eyes and looked to the west: "To the west there is blood reflecting the sky.
I saw countless corpses of Han people, and that was the revelation given to me by the shaman god. The Han Dynasty will definitely lose this battle, and its national power will also decline! "
…
North of Wusun, there is the vast and empty wasteland of the Western Huns.
The Xiongnu general Luan Tibo sat upright on his horse, paying close attention to the surrounding terrain.
"How far is it to reach the attack position ordered by the general?"
"About thirty miles." The deputy general responded.
Luan Tanbo is forty-one years old, with a normal body shape and red skin. There is a long diagonal scar on the left side of his face from behind the ear to the chin, which was left in battle many years ago.
He brought six thousand Xiongnu elites behind him.
"This time, we want the Han people to pay back all the losses of soldiers and horses that have harmed our grassland tribes in the past two years."
Luo Tingbo gritted his teeth and said: "Come in from the northern front of Kangju, seize his men, horses and property, and burn everything that cannot be taken away to ashes. Leave nothing to the Han people."
"After we mobilize the army, we will see if the Han army will be fooled. If they send a large army to surround me, we will be able to defeat the main force of the Han army by joining forces.
If he doesn't come, he will sit back and watch us kill people and plunder land in Kangju territory. "
Luo Tingbo smiled ferociously and said: "General Yudu's clever use of troops has made the Han people both advance and retreat wrong. Let's see how those Han slaves respond.
Move troops and attack! "
Six thousand Huns cavalry, roaring like wolves, galloped forward.
Chang'an, morning.
The emperor once again went to the altar to pay homage to the general and granted Huo Qubing the military power of commander-in-chief of the Han army.
Outside the ancestral temple of the Han Dynasty clan, Taishi presented the stars he had observed for days.
Taifu was looking at the tortoise shell of a thousand-year-old tortoise, and got the hexagram "Da Guo", which means that the Huns were defeated in prison, and the Northern Expedition would be a success.
Jiang Yan, a Yin-Yang master, also came up with the auspicious Yin-Yang hexagram.
The key is that once the national fortune comes, the hexagrams will not be unlucky.
Whenever the fortune of the country is divined in Chang'an, it will definitely bring good luck every time, and it will be a good fortune.
The emperor then moved out of the ancestral temple and came to the wall in the north of the city. The process was similar to the last time he went out to conquer the Western Regions.
There are many forbidden troops below.
The emperor's general, Quan Diyue, gave it to Huo Qubing in public: "I hope that Lang Zhongling can return victoriously as soon as possible!"
Huo Qubing took over the Emperor Yue.
At this time, tens of thousands of forbidden troops were arrayed under the city, and the atmosphere was desolate!
Huo Qubing raised the Imperial Yue with one arm and said in a vibrating voice:
"Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Xiongnu have continuously invaded the border, looted and killed. Our land in China has been disturbed by barbarians, and the Xiongnu has done the most harm. If we cannot defeat the Xiongnu in this expedition, how can we be worthy of our ancestors of the Han people?
How to live up to the sacrifices made in the past?
How can I be worthy of the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers at my feet? "
Huo Qubing asked questions three times in a row, and all the troops were solemn.
"You know, all the brave generals, what is the purpose of this battle?"
"To annihilate the Xiongnu, to secure and rejuvenate the country, and to recover the blood debt of our Han people!"
Huo Qubing looked around at the troops and said: "Not only because of these, in my opinion, it is because our Han army is strong enough. We are going to fight the Xiongnu and defeat them, for the sake of peace for future generations, and for our Han people to no longer be subjected to them." Disturb them. Kill them all and advance our Han troops to the front!"
"Hold our Han troops to the forefront!"
The sound of thousands of people shouting in unison shook Chang'an.
I don’t know who started, but the people in the city also joined in the shouting: "Kill the Huns! Defeat the Huns! Show off the power of Han! Kill the Huns! Show off the power of Han!"
The wind and clouds changed color, and the sky and the earth were filled with roars like mountains and tsunamis. Countless people... were shouting at the top of their lungs!
Huo Qubing stretched out his hand to hold it in vain, and his voice suddenly stopped.
"In this battle, we will plant the battle flag of our Han army at the top of the royal tent in Ulaanbaatar!"
He stretched out his hand and pushed the Emperor Yue into the void, turning into an undercurrent and heading north.
Huo Qubing stepped in the air, walked down from the top of the city, and landed on his horse: "Army, let's go!"
Thousands of horses are galloping, and thousands of armies are marching forward.
In the spring of 121 BC, the Han army sent out elite light cavalry, 50,000 brave soldiers of the forbidden army, and 50,000 veterans of the border army, making a total of 100,000 troops. Led by the champion Hou Huo Qubing and the general Wei Qing respectively, the Battle of Mobei began to be famous for generations to come!
The emperor stood at the top of the city, beside his sister Liu Qing and the queen Wei Zifu.
Liu Qing unconsciously burst into tears.
Before the battle, Huo Qubing sent the imperial yue of military power into the void and pushed it to the north, giving the supreme power of the Han army to Wei Qing.
Without the blessing of Emperor Yue as the coach, if they face Shangyudu, the danger will be doubled.
"Pingxian, Qu Bing has been fighting in all directions for two years, and he has become the invincible commander of our great Han Dynasty. The capital city will also be defeated by him!"
The emperor looked outside the city, where Huo Qubing was standing in front of the troops!
The figure was wearing an official robe, surrounded by Han flags, and was gradually moving away.
Queen Wei Zifu noticed the direction of the Han army's march and wondered: "Are the Qubing troops heading northwest?
Shouldn't it be time to go to Beiguan and meet the general? "
The emperor shook his head: "Before sending troops, I just received the northwest battle report, and it is his judgment to cure the disease.
I guess he wanted to completely defeat the Huns and defeat some of their northwest troops. With Qu Bing's marching speed, there would be no delay in going to the northwest first and then joining the general. "
The imperial army left Chang'an, Huo Qubing mobilized his troops, and a huge military formation spread out.
The entire army was included and disappeared into the void without a trace.
Some time later, at the North Pass of the Han Dynasty, at the top of Dingxiang City, Wei Qing sensed the situation and reached out to pull out the Imperial Military Yue from the void.
He turned and looked west.
In that direction, troops are raging and a war is about to begin!
Wei Qing's eyes were pleased, but also a little dissatisfied, and he scolded with a smile: "You think I am so old and weak that I have to rely on him to take care of me? He actually sent Di Yue to me."
Behind Wei Qing is the majestic and high-spirited Li Guang:
"General, you must let me, Li Guang, fight in this battle.
I want to avenge my shame, otherwise I will bear the name of incompetence for the rest of my life, and I will not accept it. "
Ps: Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone!
