Mythical big man, champion soldier saint

Chapter 150 The Arrogant Soldier

The moon is bright.

"This time I came out not only to patrol the border, but to have a combat mission?"

Zhang Qian followed the team and walked in front of Huo Qubing and the princess. The whole team of more than a hundred elite camped at night.Everyone was in order, exuding a chilling atmosphere.

And before the trip, Zhang Qian was issued with armor, so he judged that there might be a combat mission.

Knowing that Huo Qubing and the princess were behind, he looked worried: "Master Hou is too bold, if the princess makes a mistake, how should I explain it?"

"Bo Wanghou is probably worried because he has never sent troops with Lang Zhongling and never fought against the Huns."

The one who answered Zhang Qian was Wei Xiaoqisheng of the Forbidden Military Academy.

This time Yao Zhao stayed in Chang'an and was in charge of continuing to form the Habayashi and Huben armies. Zhao Ponu had other tasks and did not accompany him.

The two hundred imperial troops were led by Xiaoqi Sheng.

Historically, the generals of the Han Dynasty in this period were all overwhelmed by the brilliance of Huo Qubing and Wei Qing, making people feel that there was no one who could fight.

This is not a good thing, the real foundation is the bright stars of the same generation.

If Huo Qubing wants to promote the development of military science, it is impossible to do everything by himself, so training generals is very important.

Xiao Qi Sheng can be valued by Huo Qubing, and it has its own advantages when he is with him.

This gentleman's arms are about as thick as ordinary people's legs, he trains hard, wears heavy armor every day for training, and can still walk like flying like other generals, he is a standard tiger general configuration.

The disadvantage is that when fighting above, they will only fall in a straight line.

It's not that he has no brains, but that when he is on the battlefield, he is easy to get red-eyed when he sees blood, and he will attack violently.

But he also has the advantage that he knows that he is not good at changing the battlefield, so he will follow through on the orders of the generals he agrees with, without any compromise, and he is very obedient.

Zhang Qian looked at Xiao Qisheng with thick eyebrows, big eyes and thick black eyebrows: "Xiao Lieutenant means that Champion Hou has other arrangements?"

Xiao Qisheng raised his five fingers proudly, and said: "There are only five generals in the world who can be seen by our Lord Hou. Although there is a marching mission this time, it is impossible to threaten the general, let alone Your Royal Highness. .”

"Do you think that Lord Hou brought the princess here to visit the mountains and rivers?"

Xiao Qisheng said: "Master Hou has already made arrangements to leave Chang'an.

If you look at the embroidered clothes that accompany the team, you should know that the news from all over the place is being sent to Lord Hou all the time, and then the arrangements are made according to Lord Hou's judgment.Although we are small in number, thousands of troops may be mobilized accordingly. "

"Even if there is an arrangement, we will only have two hundred imperial guards accompanying us."

Zhang Qian frowned and said, "Lang Zhongling wanted to take me along, so I was wondering if the destination would be... the Western Regions?"

Xiao Qisheng shook his head, he always thinks about it if he doesn't understand it, and obeys orders.

Zhang Qian said to himself, "Our two hundred forbidden troops want to pass through the area blocked by the Western Xiongnu, Qiangdi and other tribes together with Loulan. I still think it is too risky for Lord Hou."

Xiao Qisheng said: "Bo Wang Hou, it's better not to worry about it. Do you have the Marquis who understands military affairs?"

Zhang Qian shook his head: "I'm just afraid that Huo Hou is too knowledgeable about military affairs, and he will defeat the Huns in two battles, and he will be arrogant. The ranger power of the Qiang, Di and other tribes cannot be underestimated.

We only have more than 200 members. When something really happens, it is absolutely difficult to deal with it.

When we arrive at the border later, if Lord Hou insists on going out, I will suggest to keep the princess in Han territory, or ask the border army to send more people to protect her. "

Xiao Qisheng said: "I'll explain to you, don't you understand?"

Zhang Qian said: "You haven't been to the Northwest Border Pass, so you don't know how complicated the situation there is, there are dozens of tribes, each other's spheres of influence overlap and intersect, the chaos is extremely chaotic, and sometimes there are several confrontations in a day.

If a caravan wants to pass through these areas, it must be accompanied by at least a hundred people and escorted by human escorts.Everyone in the caravan carried swords, even so, they still had to spend money to buy roads from time to time to pass.

Otherwise, why have we been ineffective for so many years in suppressing the border troubles in the northwest? "

"It didn't work because Master Hou didn't come."

Xiao Qisheng said: "No matter how dangerous the northwest frontier is, how about tens of thousands of elites compared to the Xiongnu royal court?"

Zhang Qian was dumbfounded.

Xiao Qi Sheng said triumphantly, "Where are the tens of thousands of Xiongnu's elite?"

Zhang Qian said in astonishment, "I was defeated by the champion and fled north."

"Marquis Bowang, what else do you want to say?"

Zhang Qian thought for a while: "I also admire Lord Hou's ability to command troops, but at that time he led more than ten thousand elites, which was completely different from the current situation.

I'm only afraid that Lord Hou underestimated the enemy, lost the battle at Xiguan, ruined the fame of the previous two battles! "

Xiao Qisheng got up with a flick of his sleeves: "You can figure it out for yourself, I can't explain it to you."

----

Li Xu behind the front army, a large chariot was parked on a low slope facing a mountain.

This is for Liu Qing.When she left Chang'an, the clan made its own arrangements.

The maid next to him drove the carriage, and walked in front during the day, and would leave the carriage behind in the evening for Liu Qing to rest, and would drive the carriage away in the morning.

The inside of the frame is like a small mobile palace, covered with animal skins, moisture-proof and heat-proof, and all related things are available.

If necessary, there are also many instruments made by the Mohist Seiko hidden in the car, which can be used for attack and defense.

Because they were still in the territory of Dahan, after they settled down, they built a bonfire and sat on one side to talk.

For Liu Qing, this is the journey of drinking horses in the rivers and lakes that he has been looking forward to for many years, with a smile on his face.

The ups and downs of fate and the wonderful contrast are consistent here.

What ordinary people yearn for, Liu Qing was born with, and what she dreams of, ordinary people can realize at any time.

"Qu Bing, is this trip just for patrolling the border, or is there another purpose?" Liu Qing asked.

Huo Qubing: "Taking you out for a walk is the main purpose, but there are some things that need to be done by the way."

"Then what do you want to do, it has something to do with the Qiang, Di and other tribes outside Xiguan?"

"In the next stage of my great Han, the biggest goal is to pacify Siyi, connect the Western Regions, and do business with them. This will benefit the future and make the country more powerful."

Huo Qubing said: "There is a saying that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of a country. It refers to the cohesion of a nation, and everyone refers to the people. The people are like this, let alone us. So this time, we can't just walk around."

Liu Qing muttered the words "every man's responsibility", and some young women looked moved: "Qu Bing is really kind of what you said." She moved to Huo Qu Bing's side, getting closer.

As the night darkened, Liu Qing curled up in Huo Qubing's arms, already asleep.

Huo Qubing took out the territory map of Xiguan, and looked at it again and again.

The night is fading away, and the stars are hidden in the sky.

Marching on the second day, the speed of the team suddenly soared.

Leaving Chang'an early yesterday, it took half a day to cross the ever-flowing Weishui River, and the location where we camped at night was close to the border between Longxi and Anding counties.

After setting off today, there was a layer of mist in front of and behind the entire team. When the breeze blew, the mist dissipated with the wind and the team disappeared.

He set off early in the morning, and before noon, he went deep into Longxi County, the largest county in the northwest of the Han Dynasty.

At this time, the front and rear teams were close together and advanced together.

Liu Qing, Zhang Qian and the others understood why Huo Qubing's team was so powerful.

The moment Huo Qubing ordered the two hundred troops to speed up, their temperament suddenly changed.

Every soldier's eyes seemed to be shining, the kind of light that must be spared to complete the combat mission.

In the next few hours, Bowang Hou Zhangqian's shock climbed to the extreme.

As the team moves forward, each soldier rides with all his strength, with his legs slightly propped up, his body pressed forward, and slightly undulating as the horse gallops, trying to minimize the horse's load and resistance, and concentrate on it.

When Huo Qubing restrained his miraculous marching method, the team's speed was slightly slower, which was the rest time for the soldiers.

At this time, no one in the army made a sound.

They eat on the back of the horse running at high speed, even turn over flexibly on the horse, slide to the side of the horse's back, and solve problems such as lazard while galloping.

After about a quarter of an hour of rest, the team immediately increased their speed to the extreme again.

The miraculous marching method gathers troops, and the speed is getting faster and faster.

A wave of energy lingered around the team, like a rolling flywheel, looking at everything.

The team under Huo Qubing's command showed far more than just speed, but more importantly, well-trained obedience and the contagious and cohesive force that did not hesitate to complete the battle order.

The combat effectiveness of such a team can be imagined.

No one doubted that when Huo Qubing gave an order, the entire team would fight to the death and charge forward.

This is a team that is as proud as Huo Qubing and does not allow themselves to fail.If one day they fall into a heavy siege, even if they fight to the last, they will never surrender, they will not surrender to the death!
In the afternoon, the team traveled across mountains and ridges, and galloped along the road to the northwest corner of Longxi County.

Zhang Qian, who joined the team for the first time and was taken flying while sitting in the frame, was extremely amazed.

This speed was far beyond his expectations, and it was completely the ceiling of a rapid march.

After passing the huge area of ​​Longxi, continuing to move forward, it slowly approached the border, and to the north was the area bordering the Xiongnu King's Department.

To the northwest is the frontier where Qiang, Di and other tribes appeared.

The atmosphere on the road had unknowingly become tense, and it seemed that even the air was filled with the murderous aura of soldiers.

Occasionally, a few Han people can be seen in a hurry, which is completely different from the peaceful and prosperous Chang'an scene where everyone's face is full of indifference.

At this time, it is getting closer to the northwest border of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Qing knew exactly what to do and when, so he stopped pestering Huo Qubing and went back to the big car by himself, rarely showing his face.

"General, do you want to notify the guards in the border town when we come this time?"

"I took Liu Qing with me, so I never thought of hiding it from others. Let's enter the city head-on." Huo Qubing said calmly.

Xiao Qisheng was puzzled and said: "The Qiang, Di and other tribes have dealt with our frontier army for many years, and there must be eyeliners in the border town. We entered the city openly, and when they heard the news, wouldn't they be vigilant?"

Huo Qubing looked at Xiaoqisheng, and from this question alone, he could see the gap between him, Zhao Puonu and Yao Zhao.

He is brave and brave, but his military literacy is average, so he can only be cultivated in the line of brave generals who charge forward.

Huo Qubing said: "Going into the city openly is to let them know."

Xiao Qisheng understood a little: "The general wants them to misjudge?"

"Go and inform the frontier guard that we are going into the city!"

Xiao Qisheng agreed abruptly, and rode away.

After he left, Huo Qubing asked Xiao Ying, the embroiderer envoy accompanying the army on the other side: "I asked you to prepare the clothes of the foreigners in advance, as well as the uniforms of our Han army. Are you ready?"

Xiao Ying replied: "There is still plenty of time, and some armaments have been transferred from the frontier army, which is enough."

----

Night falls.

It is located about two hundred miles away from the northwest border of the Han army, in the ancient Qiang tribe.

Dianzhen, the chief of the tribe, was awakened in his sleep by a door call.

He opened his eyes, put on a leather robe and came to the door: "What's the matter?"

A subordinate was waiting at the door and said:
"Received the news from Beiguan that a group of Han troops came from the border town of the Han people. They were actually wearing the fine armor of the forbidden army. They were pulling several carriages. The people or things in the carriages were very mysterious."

"Forbidden Army?"

"Yes, the news sent said that the team seems to be going out of the border and heading northwest."

"...How many forbidden troops are there?"

"The news says about two hundred. The other party enters the city through the city gate. The number is clearly visible. It should not be wrong."

Dianzhen walked out of the room: "Wake up Mu Langtuo and others."

In a short while, several leaders of the ancient Qiang tribe gathered in the stone temple built of earth and stone.

"Tome, what's wrong?" Mu Lang asked with a fierce expression.

"I just received the news that there is a forbidden Han army coming from Chang'an, and it seems to be going out of the border to the northwest." Dianzhen said.

"Big Han Forbidden Army!" The chiefs were obviously taken aback.

"How many people?"

"Two hundred imperial troops guarding several carriages," Dian Zhen said.

"Two hundred imperial troops..."

Mu Langtuo's spirit relaxed again: "There are only 200 people, and most of the tomes want to teach them a lesson?"

Dianzhen said: "I will let people closely monitor the movement of the Han people at the border. If that team goes out of the city, we will eat them, and then follow the trend to attack the Han people's border, and give the Han people some suffering."

Mu Langtuo got up slowly, excitedly said: "I would like to ask Zhan to be the vanguard to capture and kill the Han army."

Dianzhen nodded and said: "If that team really wants to go out of the border, they will definitely travel in the dark, hide their tracks, and try to escape our detection. You lead a team overnight. It's been a lot of hard work these days. If they are blocked, they may go out." On the way, don't let people run away.

In addition to the forbidden army, the other party may let the frontier army escort, you bring more troops.And beware of the opponent's deceit, if the opponent has a lot of people, then withdraw to wait and see, don't move them for a while, maybe three thousand soldiers and horses are enough for you. "

"I can't use that much, two thousand is enough."

Mu Lang let out a low drink, and left aggressively.

Nomadic tribes can fight on horseback without much preparation.

Half an hour later, Mu Langtuo led a group of people out of the ancient Qiang camp.

Dianzhen also ordered the left and right: "Attack the border of the Han people, our own soldiers and horses will be used, and the wear and tear will be heavy. Come here, send the news we have found to the north of Xiutu King's Department, and ask the Western Huns if they are interested. Join forces with us to attack Han?

This time, I will make the Han people suffer a lot. "
