Mythical big man, champion soldier saint

Chapter 195 Begging for a flying wife 【Tickets】

As early as the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, more than 50 countries, large and small, were active in the vast land of the Western Regions.

But with the continuous wars and annexations, by the time Zhang Qian was sent to the Western Regions, there were only 36 countries left.Later generations called it "the 36 countries in the ancient Western Regions".

They use some oases or areas bordering grasslands as units to form tribes as production units, which is not actually a real 'country' in the strict sense.

Among them, Qiuci, Gumo, and even Loulan are all powerful countries among the 36 countries.

In addition, countries such as Loulan and Pulei have closer ties with the Xiongnu due to geographical location and other reasons.

With the support of the Huns, they annexed small neighboring countries one after another and enjoyed the benefits of being attached to the Huns.

Under such circumstances, it is of great historical and strategic significance for Qiuci to bring Gumo envoys to Dahan as envoys.

So even Emperor Liu Che paid special attention to it.

The main reason for his mission is that the Han has been able to win consecutive victories against the Huns in recent years.

In the study, Huo Qubing took his time and said:

"Loulan and Pulei relied on the support of the Xiongnu to annex the surrounding small countries.

In a sense, they were more worried about the alliance between the Western Regions and Han than the Xiongnu.

Because once the countries of the Western Regions join hands with the Han, the Xiongnu still have a way to retreat to the grassland.Countries such as Loulan and Pulei had to bear the bitter fruit of relying on the Huns and oppressing other countries before, and suffered backlash.

With such a strong relationship, they actually didn't respond to you coming to Han.

There is only one possibility, that is, the master behind them gave them an order not to do anything for the time being. "

Roshna asked: "What Huohou means is that the Huns have follow-up means to deal with me, Qiuci and Gumo?"

Huo Qubing said: "This time when you come to the east, other countries in the Western Regions are watching.

If the Huns don't care about it, what will other countries think?They are tantamount to giving up control of the Western Regions. "

As early as when Roshna was invited to Han, Huo Qubing had made a judgment on the subsequent changes.Knowing that once it comes to the east, it may be the prelude to another confrontation between the Han and the Huns.

This is a strategic conspiracy. The Xiongnu must fight, otherwise they will lose the entire Western Regions.

Roshna is revered by all the countries in the Western Regions, she is not lacking in intelligence and knowledge.

She could also see the key, followed the trend, and agreed to come to Han. The purpose was to further see the strengths and weaknesses of both sides in the process of the Huns and Han confrontation again, so as to make the most beneficial choice for the Western Regions.

As for the risks to be borne, it is inevitable.

This kind of thing can't be without risk.

But what Huo Qubing said next made Roshna's expression change.

"According to some indications, the Xiongnu may attack you, Kucha or Gumo, with lightning speed, so as to warn other countries and prevent them from following the example of you and others who came to Han." Huo Qubing said.

Roshna expected that this trip to the east might arouse conflicts between the Han and the Huns.

But she did not expect that the Xiongnu would directly send troops without hesitation to attack Kucha head-on.

The reason is that Qiuci is located in the middle of the countries in the Western Regions. If the Huns want to attack Qiuci and Gumo, they need to pass through several countries in the Western Regions.

In terms of geographical location, including the current confrontation between the Xiongnu and the Han, and the situation in which they contain each other, this is not easy.

But Huo Qubing said this, but Roshna dared not take it seriously.

She got up suddenly: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, I need to try to contact my Kucha side immediately to take precautions."

Gumo, the envoys of Kucha also got up.

But the two are not as eager as Roshna.

They didn't believe everything Huo Qubing said.From their standpoint, they have reason to suspect that Huo Qubing is scaremongering, deliberately creating their sense of crisis, so as to push them to surrender faster.

The emperor said, "Wait and don't rush away.

Qubing, since you have a judgment on the Xiongnu's reaction, do you have relevant arrangements? "

Huo Qubing said: "At the beginning when Zhao Puonu invited Roshna to come to Han, I thought that the Xiongnu might have something to do, and reminded Zhang Jun, the prefect of Xiguan.

In the past few days in Beiguan, after hearing the news from Xiuyi that Roshna and the others arrived in Chang'an safely without any disturbances along the way, the minister further confirmed that the Xiongnu might want to launch a more direct revenge.

While returning to Chang'an from Beiguan, the minister had Zhang Cigong lead [-] troops to advance westward along Beiguan.

If the Xiongnu sent troops from the north to the Western Regions, Zhang Jun and Zhang Cigong's troops would be able to block them on the road. "

"Besides, the day before I returned to Chang'an, my uncle had gone to Dingxiang in Beiguan, Shuofang area.

The Xiongnu had soldiers and horses to mobilize, and my uncle was in Beiguan, so how to use the soldiers was safe. "

All the ministers thought after hearing this, Huo Qubing is the order of the doctor, Wei Qing is the general, both of them have the power to transfer soldiers and horses at the border, and the number of people Huo Qubing mobilizes is only a few thousand, so they told the emperor at this moment that it is not necessary to send Zhang Cigong to Xiguan. violation.

Because the matter so far is still in the pre-judgment stage of Huo Qubing, speaking in advance, it seems not prudent enough.

Roshna was slightly relieved when she heard that Huo Qubing had made arrangements.But still feeling uneasy, he stood up and bowed to leave, eager to go back to the post house, and through some means, learned about the situation in Kucha.

Everyone in the Western Regions hurriedly left the study.

The Han arranged for them to live in Gaojie, inside the south gate of Chang'an City. Foreign envoys visited Chang'an, and the embassy buildings have always been here.

A group of people left the palace, ready to return to the building.

Before boarding the car, the envoy Gumo frowned and said, "Da Zun, don't be so anxious, the words of the Han generals may not be credible.

He is a general of the Han Dynasty, so he should aggravate the threat of the Xiongnu to our Western Regions, so as to increase our worries, the purpose is nothing more than to seek benefits for the Han. "

The Kucha envoy echoed: "I also think Dakze's judgment is correct. If the Huns want to use troops to attack Kucha and Gumo, they have to go through many countries to get there. Under the current situation, how can it be so easy ?”

"Exactly." Gu Mo nodded his head.

Roshna raised her eyebrows and said: "If the Huns really want to mobilize troops, I believe there will be movement soon, and then we will know the truth."

The envoys of Gumo and Qiuci exchanged glances. Out of respect for Roshna, they did not continue to refute, but they obviously disagreed.

They decided to come to Han, and they had studied and judged the situation beforehand.Of course, Huo Qubing's few words would not change his previous judgment.

"I'm in Han, Dazun has the means to contact Qiucha and ask about the situation?" the envoy Gumo asked with a serious face.

"It should be possible to use the sand tower," Roshna said.

----

Weiyang Palace.

After Roshna and the others left, the ministers also retired one after another.

Liu Che glanced at Liu Qing who was beside Huo Qubing, and said with a smile:

"During your absence, Ping Xian came to ask you where you were every day. Since you have returned from the expedition, let's go back to the residence first, and discuss the rest of the matter."

Huo Qubing and Liu Qing got up to perform the ceremony, and left the emperor's study.

After the two left, Liu Che let Dong Xu in: "Open the new border map of my big man and show it to me."

Dong Xu agreed, and hurried to the side to unfold a new sheepskin map.

On the new map, Fuyu, Wuhuan and other places have indeed been included in the scope of the Han territory, that is, the positions of the northeastern provinces in later generations, and now they are only short of the easternmost part.

As for the northward part of the area, it has to go beyond.

The border of the Han Dynasty will thus increase by four to six counties.

This is a new map made by a minister to try to figure out the emperor's mind, and presented it to the emperor immediately after Huo Qubing led his troops to capture Fuyu, Wuhuan and other ministries.

"When all the tribes of Xianbei surrender, then take over the Western Regions and defeat the Xiongnu, then the barbarians will surrender and open thousands of miles of territory. I wonder if I can break through that shackle with my achievements and the luck of the country I have accumulated." The emperor thought with bright eyes.

When Huo Qubing and Liu Qing came out of the palace and returned to Champion Hou's mansion, the sun was setting.

The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky red.

Dong Zhongshu followed closely and came to visit.

Huo Qubing changed his military uniform and wore a dark Hanfu, and received Dong Zhongshu in the front hall of the mansion: "Master, what is so urgent?"

Huo Qubing felt dissatisfied that the husband and wife had been separated for a long time and was interrupted by an old man coming to talk about things.

"Huohou, for your expedition this time, I asked the officials in charge of recording all kinds of captured materials at the border to record every small expenditure and even the captured materials for comparison."

Dong Zhongshu's eyes flickered on Qingjun's face, and he sighed slightly: "The consumption of Huohou fighting is indeed much lower than I expected."

"so what?"

"I want to tell Huo Hou that you want to pacify the barbarians to build a strong man. From today onwards, I will fully support and supplement each other."

He said last time that civil and martial arts should be combined, but he was not as sincere as this time.

Huo Qubing's thoughts moved slightly, and he quickly figured out the reason.

Dong Zhongshu in history is a person who can accurately identify the current situation and make the best use of it.

When he understood the emperor's ambition, he wanted to centralize power while constantly conquering new territories to strengthen the Han.

Dong Zhongshu is also trying to change his thinking and behavior.

Through continuous observation, he discovered another path that, like before, could not only leave a name through the ages, but also break through the realm of his master.

It is to fully promote Liu Che to become an emperor and hero rarely seen in the ages. In the great process of Wei Qing and Huo Qubing expanding the territory and establishing a strong man, he himself also participated in and shared the luck of expanding the sky.

Of course, this luck is not that if it is divided, it will lose a share, but Dong Zhongshu has been added on the original basis.

So he believed that Huo Qubing would agree, and realized his sincerity.

The old master's brain turned very fast, and he realized that this was a better way to leave a name in history and earn luck than the previous idea, so he wanted to really participate.

Dong Zhongshu didn't express his thoughts too bluntly, and left after making a brief statement.

Huo Qubing pondered for a while in the front hall, and when he returned to the inner house, Liu Qing had just come out of the shower.

The long hair is loose, the skin is fair and beautiful, and the legs are long, charming and enchanting.

In Liu Qing's imagination, when the husband returns from an expedition, he should take a bath and change clothes first, and then cuddle up with her to watch the sunset and the sunset. When the love is strong, he should do whatever he wants.

But when Huo Qubing came back, his first step was similar to what Liu Qing thought... except that he took a bath very quickly.

He came out in less than half a teacup, and returned to the couch with a naked upper body.

The two quickly changed from indifferent to intense, and started an exchange of returning from an expedition.

It wasn't until the bright moon lifted into the sky that Liu Qing had the opportunity to stretch his legs and complete the research on the contents of the secret scroll.She was lying on her side on the couch, revealing her ambition to Huo Qubing...

In the early hours of the morning, Her Royal Highness entered the resting stage of the phoenix returning to the nest physique and fell asleep soundly.

And Huo Qubing took a nap for a while, got up in the early morning and went to the study.

He beheaded Bing Zun before, and sealed his yin body in a ball of purple air of national fortune.

Then take it out and check it out.
