Control the ancestors and create an immortal family starting from the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 153: Check for leaks and fill them up, perfecting the plan to annihilate the Huns

The war is about to begin.

Visible to the naked eye.

The whole big man suddenly became nervous.

Live in Luoyang.

Zhang Wei could feel it clearly.

There was a chill in the air.

There is still a slight chill.

The harsh winter has quietly arrived.

Zhang Wei in front of the screen is also making various preparations.

Zhang Wangcheng is back.

Liu Che specifically recalled him.

As the third son of the Zhang family.

Not only did Zhang Wangcheng not enjoy the Zhang family's fine clothing and food with peace of mind.

On the contrary, it has been polished at the border.

Already, from a lowly soldier, he rose to the position of a general with no rank.

During this process.

The Zhang family did not show much help.

can only say.

Zhang Wei gave the greatest support in terms of equipment.

The rest is all based on his own abilities.

This is a kind of protection from the Zhang family.

At present, the Zhang family is powerful in the court.

High officials are well paid.

Logically speaking, it is not difficult to arrange for Zhang Wangcheng to rise to prominence.

just.

The Zhang family already had considerable influence among civil servants.

It even aroused the fear of many courtiers.

At this time, the position of military attaché was rashly involved.

Let’s do it again in the dark.

It's easy to invite gossip.

Furthermore.

Zhang Wei also wanted the children of the Zhang family to get sufficient experience.

after all.

Just relying on the friendship with the emperor.

There will eventually be a day when everything is exhausted.

Far less powerful than his own abilities.

It is necessary to plan ahead.

Zhang Wei specially arranged for the descendants of the Zhang family to spread across various fields.

The main thing is that the Zhang family wants to develop in the long term.

You need to shine in every field.

Achievements in various fields.

In this way, we can "not be biased towards science".

Only in this way can one protect oneself to a great extent.

sunset.

In the Zhang family courtyard.

Zhang Wangchuan looked at the afterglow of the setting sun.

Skillfully completed a set of modified Tai Chi.

Covered in sweat.

He could clearly feel it.

The whole person seemed to have a refreshing feeling.

Also.

Compared with the emphasis on health preservation in later generations.

Naturally, the ancients did not have very good conditions.

In addition, the food, clothing, housing and transportation are relatively rudimentary.

The average life span is naturally very short.

The set of health-preserving movements introduced by Zhang Wei not only help them relax their muscles and bones, but also exercise their bodies.

The most important thing is to introduce the concept of health preservation.

At least let the higher-ups know.

How to do it to better protect your body.

As the minister of the Han Dynasty.

As the head of the Zhang family.

Zhang Wangchuan needs to deal with more than just the Zhang family.

The Zhang family is relatively spread all over the world.

It is naturally a drop in the bucket in front of the problems encountered by the entire big man.

but.

anyway.

Exercise is naturally indispensable.

From the beginning, Zhang Wei personally controlled Zhang Wangchuan to exercise at a fixed time every day.

By now, he has gradually adapted and developed a habit.

Actively train every day.

Except for the important matters in the court.

Everything is back to the way things should be.

in front of the screen.

Zhang Wei didn't pay too much attention.

Mainly still.

When the Han Dynasty decided to fight against the Xiongnu, he even accepted his Zhang family's proposal.

He was completely busy.

Busy looking for Du Niang.

Busy studying knowledge about war.

What you need to know is.

War in ancient times was different from modern times. It was almost a life-and-death battle between blood and fire, swords and swords, and flesh to flesh.

The combat power of both sides is high, and low is low.

Unless the differences in weapons and equipment are too great, there will be almost no major influencing factors.

To be honest, strategy is only relative.

What's more important is the size of the combat power.

In history, there have been situations where the strategy was successful but failed to defeat.

Therefore, Zhang Wei was a little worried.

Not only are they worried about whether their plans can really be realized smoothly in the torrent of history.

I am even more worried, even if it is achieved, with the current strength of the big man.

Can the Huns really be completely surrounded?

Can it be completely annihilated in one fell swoop?

This is all unknown.

At least historically.

There is no intuitive description.

Drive, drive, drive...

At the door, there was a clearly visible sound of horse hooves.

Then, there was a burst of chaotic footsteps.

"Third Master, you are back"

Hear the words.

Zhang Wangchuan couldn't care less about his thoughts.

He quickly pushed open the courtyard door.

But it can be seen.

A dusty figure.

Wearing armor and holding a sharp edge.

His face was full of heroism.

A familiar yet unfamiliar feeling.

Zhang Wangchuan even subconsciously froze in place.

in front of the screen.

Zhang Wei was a little emotional.

The military camp is indeed the most training place.

When Zhang Wangcheng surrendered to the army.

He is still a young boy.

Follow-up, even if it is an occasional visit to relatives.

Even if you can see him maturing.

but.

In Zhang Wei's eyes, Zhang Wangcheng is still the third son of the Zhang family, the child protected by his two brothers.

however.

I have gone through many hardships at the border.

Experienced the passage of time and the vicissitudes of years.

Zhang Wangcheng has grown a lot.

More, it should be a kind of perseverance.

"Big brother..."

Zhang Wangcheng stepped forward quickly with some excitement.

Zhang Wangchuan also grabbed Zhang Wangcheng's hand.

"Wangcheng, I haven't seen you for many years, and you are already so big."

through the screen.

Zhang Wei could even see some white hair on Zhang Wangcheng's head.

The frontier fortress is bitterly cold and fighting occurs frequently.

simultaneous.

The various conditions in the frontier fortress are much different from those here.

Time makes people grow older more easily.

This is reflected in Zhang Wangcheng.

Not only is it youthful, it even looks a little bit vicissitudes of life.

Of course, it should be more of a heroic appearance.

It is a kind of chilling of iron and blood.

Zhang Wangcheng was followed by a group of soldiers. This should be the personal guard he mentioned in his letter.

Also.

Go through your own efforts.

Today, Zhang Wangcheng is a general of the Han Dynasty.

Although compared with the first two of the Zhang family.

His status is not even high-profile.

but.

Still worthy of everyone's pride.

"It's good to be back. It's good to be back. It's good to be back."

He gently patted Zhang Wangcheng on the shoulder.

Looking at this figure that was almost half a head taller than him.

Zhang Wangchuan's eyes were filled with Zhang Wangcheng's childhood.

Introduce Zhang Wangcheng into the house.

After a brief chat.

Zhang Wei brought the topic onto the right track.

Zhang Wangcheng was recalled to Luoyang all the way.

It's not just a simple reminiscence of old times.

More important, or more relevant.

It should be the current Zhang family's plan.

"Brother, I heard that the Han Dynasty has made a decision to attack the Xiongnu? Our border troops are all excited, gearing up, and swearing to fight for your life! Now, the military morale of the border troops is available! As a descendant of the Zhang family, I cannot fall behind! "

But it was Zhang Wangcheng who took the initiative to bring it up.

The intention to fight is obvious.

Zhang Wei nodded.

"Now, the court has unanimously decided that there will definitely be a battle between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu. It is just a decisive battle, and the stakes are very important. Although there is my suggestion, the strategy has not been completely established yet."

Zhang Wangcheng frowned.

"I have heard about my eldest brother's plan in the military. In other words, everyone with a general position or above has roughly known about my Zhang family's plan."

"In terms of grand strategy, there is nothing wrong with our Zhang family's plan, especially the words "lure them with profit, subdue them with tactics, and annihilate them with force", which all made everyone in our army admire my eldest brother. In this way This strategy can indeed greatly limit the Xiongnu's mobility. Moreover, if used properly, my big man will definitely be able to defeat the Xiongnu in one fell swoop."

"but……"

Zhang Wangcheng paused.

Facing Zhang Wangchuan's slightly eager gaze.

He pondered for a few moments.

In front of the screen, Zhang Wei was also attracted by his words.

To be honest, Zhang Wei knew that the Zhang family's strategy was not perfect.

For example, there were several questions raised by Wei Qing in the court.

What kind of benefits should be paid to seduce the Xiongnu? What reasons were used to introduce them into the encirclement?

Furthermore, how can we be sure that we can kill all the Huns in one fell swoop?

These are their top priorities.

Fighting is not just based on tactics, or it is not just based on tactics, but more of a real fight with real swords and guns.

Zhang Wei is not trying to boost others' ambitions and destroy his own prestige.

It's about the strength of the big man right now.

It would be a protracted tug-of-war with the Huns.

The big man naturally has no pressure.

but.

To talk about mobile warfare, or to go back and forth with the more mobile Huns.

Even during the period of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing, the Han Dynasty raised a large number of horses and focused on the development of cavalry.

It is also impossible to compare with this kind of nation that grew up on horseback.

Zhang Wei's strategy was to use his own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses and take advantage of the Huns' greed.

With the help of the temptation of interests and the siege of the terrain, they can be caught in one fell swoop.

However, Wei Qing's words in the court also reminded him.

After all, the Zhang family doesn't have much experience in war.

At least from Zhang Wei's personal perspective.

Except for the wave of "throwing stones" with others on the island country.

It even almost failed.

In fact, he didn't have a very intuitive feeling about war.

Therefore.

His plan was too idealistic.

Just like the plan formally proposed by Nie Yi in history and highly praised by Wang Hui.

Zhang Wei’s idea was born out of this.

Although some changes have been made.

but.

It’s still a matter of changing the soup without changing the medicine.

In this group of battle-hardened generals.

It's easy to find no small loopholes.

in history.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty acted according to this plan.

The plan seems to be perfect.

but.

The word "failure" is enough to sum up the pros and cons of the plan.

Zhang Wangcheng has been able to develop from a small border soldier to the present, rising through the ranks with his military merit.

It relies on more than just the support from the Zhang family.

Or rather.

His military exploits were all truly snatched from the flames of war.

It just so happened that I was urgently recruited this time.

Facing Zhang Wei’s request for advice.

Zhang Wangcheng did not shy away from it.

He explained the many loopholes in the plan to Zhang Wei one by one.

Especially, brainstorming in the military.

Zhang Wei's thinking has been greatly developed.

"Brother, first of all, it is the word "profit". In our opinion, only by giving up can you gain. This benefit, we big men not only have to pay, but also should pay for it. For example, if the Xiongnu wants to fight with me, the big man, what he does is What? It’s for my big man’s money and food, and for the cattle and sheep that my big man keeps in captivity for the convenience of the people. Compared with the Xiongnu, my big man’s captivity is obviously more effective, and it makes them salivate.”

"If we rely on this to seduce him, or even add fire, mobilize a large number of cattle and sheep, and place them at the places they must pass through. After a lot of burning, killing and looting, the Huns' wariness of my big man will be lowered to the lowest level. lowest!"

Zhang Wei was thoughtful.

It is said that one general can achieve great success but ten thousand bones will wither.

From a few light words.

He could feel it deeply.

This contains indifference and burning hatred for the Huns.

It's not that the border troops didn't care enough for the people and sacrificed them for no reason.

Quite the opposite.

As a frontier soldier, as a frontier soldier who has been fighting against the Huns for who knows how many years.

They know a lot more than any so-called high-ranking official in the court who talks so much.

They understand the sturdiness of the Huns and what they must give up when fighting against them.

Not just the so-called cattle and sheep.

A small number of border residents, and even the lives of those around them.

In the face of a great victory, in the face of the benefits of being able to wipe out the Huns in one fell swoop.

A moderate amount of sacrifice is necessary.

Zhang Wei quickly adapted to the rhythm of Zhang Wangcheng's presentation.

even.

He can draw inferences from one instance to another.

"Wangcheng, your Majesty and I are currently studying and planning to set up a pocket formation to lead the Huns to Mayi. The terrain around Mayi is steep. One man can guard the pass, and no one can open it. As long as the Huns get into this pocket, we will wait. Send another group of soldiers and horses to block its exit and capture the turtles in the jar, and we will definitely catch them all!"

As he spoke, Zhang Wei pointed to the huge map spread out above the study room.

On it, the word Mayi is drawn with heavy red circles.

It can be seen that he has been studying this plan for a long time.

In front of the screen, Zhang Wei also acted very seriously.

Through historical materials and various channels.

He found out the address chosen by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for his first battle with the Huns.

Originally, he wanted to follow this plan and make corresponding changes to the address.

At least, the original strategy should not be applicable.

after all.

Having learned from the past, Zhang Wei also felt that the terrain of Mayi would make the Xiongnu suspicious.

but.

Looking for a long time.

At the border, there is no more suitable place than Mayi.

If you want to catch all the Xiongnu in one fell swoop, you must limit their aggressive actions and shut them down to beat the dogs.

It should be noted that the Huns’ frontier territory was flat and open as far as the eye could see.

While galloping, with the Huns' mobility, they realized something was wrong and it was easy to escape.

Only the land of Mayi has a dangerous situation that meets their requirements for setting up an ambush.

"We plan to set up ambushes in the mountains and forests and on both sides of the surrounding area, and set up a group of infantry that is not afraid of death near the mouth of Mayi. This is enough to ensure that my big man will be safe. I don't know what Wangcheng thinks."

Zhang Weizhi told him his plan.

I hope to hear some different opinions from Zhang Wangcheng.

After all, he is the general who personally leads the troops to fight.

It was fought through blood and fire.

Furthermore.

As a member of his own family, Zhang Wei has no thoughts of making a fool of himself or being arrogant.

To be honest, he himself was hesitant about this plan.

Historically, the Xiongnu had doubts about the terrain and the smoothness of their invasion, and finally fled, causing Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to return without success.

Zhang Wei wants to perfect this plan.

but it is.

Zhang Wangcheng's interest came.

"Brother, I can't fault this plan in theory. However, let alone what kind of benefits we should use to introduce the Huns into the encirclement without arousing suspicion from the Huns. Just say that the Huns are not good either. Silly, seeing that the terrain is rugged and difficult to drive straight into, and they may be caught in a trap, they will definitely send a vanguard force."

"If I, a big man, let the advance troops in, they will not be suspicious, but our ambush will definitely be discovered. If I, a big man, take the lead, I will definitely alert the enemy, and it will be difficult to achieve the goal of annihilating them."

"The Huns are treacherous, and this plan cannot have both ends. Although my elder brother's idea is clever, it is full of difficulties!"

In front of the screen, Zhang Wei sighed heavily.

Zhang Wangcheng explained this.

He did discover many blind spots.
