Not long ago, Qin Tian felt something in his heart, as if something related to him was about to happen.
As soon as his mind moved, his consciousness came to the place where his inspiration was touched, and he happened to finish watching the conversation between Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.
Speaking of which, Qin Tian actually didn't know the relationship between Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.
Most people’s understanding of history actually only goes so far.
If he hadn't heard Huo Qubing call Uncle Wei Qing, Qin Tian would not have expected that the two famous generals in history would have such a relationship.
Of course he knew that Zhao Ping left Qin Tian with the fruit that day, but he didn't expect that the fruit traveled through thousands of mountains and rivers and finally reached the hands of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
For this reason, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty specially sent people to search for immortals and visit Taoism.
However, Qin Tian doesn't feel that his future life will be affected in any way.
If he doesn't want to see other people, no one can find him.
Therefore, he did not take any action, but followed his original plan to open a medical clinic to treat diseases and save people.
When the medical center opened the next day, the people around it were very curious.
In this era, most ordinary people did not have the conditions and qualifications to seek medical treatment. Only when they occasionally met people like barefoot doctors did they have the opportunity to ask for a bowl of talisman water.
A medical clinic like this looks very formal, and ordinary people would not dare to walk in.
Not to mention taking medicine, I'm afraid they can't even pay for the consultation!
No one came to seek medical treatment, so Qin Tian was happy and leisurely.
Every day I either read or write and draw, which should be used to cultivate my sentiments.
Cultivation should not be done behind closed doors all the time. Only when there is relaxation and relaxation is the right path.
Since he has accepted the love of Heaven, Qin Tian will naturally make some contributions to this world.
Therefore, he planned to write a simple but effective medical book that did not need to cover any difficult diseases, but only needed to be able to treat the most common headaches and brain fever.
The most important thing is that the medicines used to treat diseases should be simple and easy to obtain, and even ordinary people can afford them.
This is not difficult for Qin Tian. If he is willing, he can write it in half a day.
But he was not in a hurry. He just took it for fun and wrote a few words when he remembered.
The rest of the time Qin Tian was either studying a game of Go or drawing some mountains and rivers.
This is also a kind of practice!
Calligraphy and painting can stabilize people's mood, and in the process of calligraphy and painting, Qin Tian can also integrate his spiritual consciousness into his works.
At first, his skills were not very good, and he was incompetent among ordinary people.
But soon, Qin Tian grasped the essence.
As the saying goes, if you practice three hundred and sixty, you will be the number one scholar.
The same is true for the journey of cultivation.
No matter what skill it is, as long as it is practiced to the extreme, it can communicate with the world. This is the so-called skill that is close to the Tao.
Qin Tian's talent in painting is not high, but who can let him have a hint of heaven around him?
With Xiao Bai here, no matter what he practices, he will get twice the result with half the effort.
He could even directly gain insights from Xiao Bai, and then hone his own skills in turn.
When others practice cultivation, they are crossing the river by feeling for the stones, without even knowing where the end point is.
But Qin Tian was much simpler. He reached the end first, then turned around and headed back to the key point.
Even though he still needs to cross the river by feeling for the stones, in comparison, his path is much clearer.
At first it was just to kill time, but Qin Tian gradually found some fun in calligraphy and painting.
He began to immerse himself in the world of painting, and was obsessed with describing everything he saw on the drawing paper with gentle brush strokes.
There is true meaning between mountains and rivers.
Occasionally, he would go out for a few days to look at the surrounding mountains and rivers and experience the fun of them for himself.
Sitting and watching the rolling sea of clouds can also bring a slightly different feeling to Qin Tian.
…
After fooling His Majesty, Wei Qing got up and headed to the border.
The Huns have been very restless recently, which has cast a shadow on Wei Qing's mind.
Now Wei Qing has received news that the Xiongnu went south and invaded Shanggu County!
When the news spread back, the whole world was in an uproar!
Liu Che also attached great importance to this war and personally deployed the strategic plan!
A big man is never a weakling who dares not fight back when someone hits him!
In order to show his determination to fight against the Huns, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty directly sent four armies at the border!
Wei Qing himself is in charge of Shanggu County!
The cavalry general Gongsun Ao set out from Daijun to take charge of the response!
At the same time, Gongsun He, the light chariot general, sent troops from Yunzhong, and Li Guang, the brave cavalry general, sent troops from Yanmen.
Each of these four generals led 10,000 cavalry to attack the Huns!
It is said that there are only 10,000 people, but this is a full 10,000 cavalry!
Once the number of people exceeds 10,000, the sky is boundless, not to mention that each of the 10,000 cavalrymen has two or three horses.
The army was launched, it was so majestic that it covered the sky and the sun!
Then as soon as the war started, everyone was given a head-on blow!
First, Gongsun He was greedy for merit and advanced rashly. He went deep into the enemy camp without waiting for the friendly forces to respond. This gave the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it and returned with a great defeat!
Then came Gongsun Ao, who originally planned to ambush the enemy. If the ambush was successful, it would open up the situation for the friendly forces!
This even kicked off the counterattack against the Huns!
But whether it was because the news was leaked or for some other reason, the enemy did not appear in the expected ambush circle.
If Gongsun Ao had not seen that the situation was not good and immediately ordered a retreat, he might even have been surrounded by the enemy!
If he was defeated all the way, I'm afraid this counterattack against the Huns would be doomed!
War is not a child's play. In order to successfully ambush the enemy, Gongsun Ao made a lot of preparations.
After returning in vain, we can only regroup, recruit food and grass, and prepare the army. We will no longer be able to attack in a short time!
Unlike the Central Plains, the border areas have fertile and vast plains, and it is extremely difficult to farm here.
Therefore, the diet of border officers mainly relied on the support of the Central Plains court.
But how much was consumed by eating horse chews along the way?
Often ten bags of rice are delivered to the border, and only one or two bags are left!
Therefore, it takes a lot of money to maintain the armaments at the border. Once the army is mobilized, it is a cut in the imperial treasury!
This time, so much food and grass was wasted but it was all in vain, so they could only return to the original place to garrison.
At least Gongsun Ao did not return in defeat, which is also a blessing among misfortunes!
The defeat all the way and the futile return did not make the other two people feel too much.
It was officially because the situation was unfavorable to them that Wei Qing did not take the initiative. At this time, he had to be more cautious!
If we are greedy for merit and advance rashly, I am afraid that this counterattack against the Huns will never be successful again!
I missed this opportunity. If I want to have a similar opportunity next time, I don’t know when it will be!
But Li Guang is different. He thinks this is the best opportunity.
It is precisely because the friendly troops are unable to be used that his importance is highlighted!
Li Guang was quite clever, and everyone thought he was a famous general, but in fact, Li Guang himself had no great achievements.
As a warrior, he is absolutely qualified, and can even be called extremely brave, but as a general, his ability is questionable!
Li Guang initially joined the army as a son of a good family. When fighting against the Xiongnu, he made great achievements in battle and killed many enemy heads, so he was granted an official title.
He himself followed three emperors in a row, from Emperor Wen of Han to Emperor Jing of Han, and now to Emperor Wu of Han.
Because he is indeed very brave, every emperor appreciates him very much!
Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty even said: "If you were not born at the right time and were born in the era of Emperor Gaozu, what would it mean to be a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households?"
Li Guang kept this sentence in his heart from then on, and wanted to be a marquis for the rest of his life!
But the problem was that the emperor soon discovered where the upper limit of this person's ability was.
As a soldier, he is definitely a good soldier, but as a general, it can only be said that he is more than enough to defend, but not enough to go in.
Therefore, after two generations of emperors, Li Guang still failed to realize his wish to become a marquis!
The main reason is that this person does not have any famous achievements!
When Qing Huo Qubing and later became a marquis, they all returned after defeating the enemy generals. But as for Li Guang, everyone said that he was brave in battle, which is indeed true.
But if you want to become a prince, just being brave in battle is not enough!
Li Guang also knew it well, but the country had no choice but to passively defend against the Huns' invasion.
Occasionally they attack, but the results are not good!
During the reign of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, Li Guang's most famous experience was when he was outnumbered and outnumbered, scaring away the enemy troops and successfully escaping.
But that's all.
In order to give himself a truly impressive record, Li Guang decided that he must shine this time!
Wei Qing obviously knew what his colleague was thinking, so he sent someone to send a letter to tell Li Guang not to act rashly!
However, after Li Guang read the secret letter, he sneered and threw it away!
"Don't act rashly? If you don't move, will all the credit be given to you!"
Li Guang believes that this is the best time to attack!
Although Gongsun He returned in defeat, he also consumed the enemy's vitality. The enemy would obviously be very relaxed after winning the battle, at least not making any big moves in a short period of time.
After the battle is over, the soldiers need to be groomed, rewarded, and prepared for the next battle, so they don't have to worry about the enemy on this road.
On the other hand, the enemy troops on the other side did not appear where they were originally expected. They probably moved to other places.
Now all Li Guang has to face is the enemy forces on his side.
Of course, he is not one to act rashly. If he attacks rashly and is surrounded by enemies, he will definitely be defeated!
Therefore, he decided to stand still for the time being and investigate the movements of the enemy troops on the other side.
Let’s see if the enemy is going to besiege Wei Qing or go somewhere else!
Wei Qing felt relieved when he saw that Li Guang didn't act rashly.
Fortunately, this colleague has not been dazzled by fame and fortune, otherwise I am afraid that the situation will really become extremely difficult.
But before Wei Qing could relax for a few days, he received the news that Li Guangdajun was dispatched!
"How dare he?" Wei Qing was shocked!
In the past few days, he has been constantly inquiring about the enemy's movements, trying to find out the enemy's specific movements.
Among the four armies, one has already retreated to the grassland, and it seems that they are preparing to reward them for their merits!
Obviously the enemy feels that the troops left behind now are enough to deal with the big Han!
But apart from the enemies on his own side, the movements of the enemy forces on the other two sides are very ambiguous.
They marched as if they were separated, and it looked like they would separate at any time, but in fact they did not really separate their troops.
They only left a small group of enemy troops to harass Gongsun Ao. After confirming that Gongsun Ao was no longer able to mobilize his troops on a large scale, they became even more unscrupulous!
The safest way at this time is naturally for both parties to merge into one place, or to stand still!
The Han army needs to consume food and grass to expand, and the enemy also needs to consume food and grass. As long as it drags on, the advantage will definitely be on their side!
It doesn't take long, even if it only lasts a month or two, the support from the imperial court is about to arrive.
Secondly, this can also give Gongsun Ao time to regain his strength.
They just need to drag it out and they can turn the situation around.
But now Li Guang takes the initiative and pushes the situation into the abyss!
Wei Qing couldn't help but have a headache.
Although Li Guang was greedy for merit and rash, he didn't look like someone who didn't understand military affairs at all. He had no idea why Li Guang would make such a rash move!
…
Looking at the vast army behind him, a trace of pride appeared on Li Guang's face.
After several days of spies' investigation, Li Guang felt that he had completely grasped the enemy's movements.
The two armies were at a distance from each other, and from time to time they sent people to harass him, and even tempted him to go deep into the enemy's army. How could Li Guang not see this?
But he never sent troops, not because he was afraid, nor because he was waiting for support from the court.
Li Guang is waiting for an opportunity!
He knew that the enemy was trying to lure them, but Li Guang was confident that he could handle such a situation with his own abilities!
He is waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity for the enemy to relax!
And now, when he learned of the recent intelligence sent by the spies, he immediately commanded the army to set off!
The army has always been on alert and ready to attack at any time.
After so many days of repairing, morale has reached its peak!
In this attack, as long as he fights quickly and defeats the enemy quickly, and then returns to the city at lightning speed, the enemy will have nothing to do with him!
Before that, he also sent small groups of cavalry to harass the enemy's military formation, trying to separate the enemy's army.
This is entirely a dangerous move. If he succeeds, it will be enough to leave a lie that will be passed down through the ages!
If we can use this method of small groups of harassment and constant invasion to separate the enemy's main force and defeat them one by one, it will be an unprecedented victory!
Therefore, being granted the title of Marquis is a no-brainer!
But will things go as smoothly as Li Guang imagined?
Naturally, the Xiongnu Chanyu also knew Li Guang's reputation, so he was naturally extremely careful when dealing with this person!
Therefore, the Xiongnu army did not attack rashly, but mainly harassed them, wanting to ensure nothing went wrong!
And in the midst of this tug, Li Guang's sudden attack really caught Shan Yu off guard.
He didn't expect that Li Guang would dare to send troops like this, and there was a sudden chaos!
In order to ensure that he could securely capture Li Guang, Shan Yu mobilized all his troops together and even took part in the battle himself, just to capture this famous general!
He admired Li Guang's talents very much and even hoped to use them for his own use.
It was precisely because of this kind of caution that his army was several times stronger than Li Guang. With these people guarding him, Shanyu felt relieved and even asked his men to capture Li Guang alive!
