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

Chapter 181 The war is about to start, all parties are preparing

That night, Liu Che and Zhang Wei talked all night long.

Early the next morning, Liu Che left with satisfaction.

The plan regarding the Xiongnu is already beginning to take shape!

In the court, Liu Che no longer blocked the various courtiers who wanted to fight.

On the contrary, he and the court officials began to discuss how to fight the Huns.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to be the vanguard and lead an army to attack the Xiongnu."

"Your Majesty, I am also willing to go."

"His Majesty……"

Just like before.

Above the court, the sound of fighting can be heard endlessly.

Facing the Huns who had lost all their main forces.

No matter who sees it, this is a great military achievement.

Therefore, every courtier in the court is bravely taking the lead, showing the scene of virtuous and loyal ministers serving the country and the people.

Seeing this scene, Liu Che's face didn't look very good.

but.

Thinking of the plan he made with Zhang Wangchuan.

Liu Che still suppressed his unhappiness.

"Everyone, I have seen your fighting spirit. However, the grassland is vast, and if you go in the wrong direction, it is very easy to make a mistake or miss a thousand miles. Furthermore, the main force of the Xiongnu has been lost. All I need is a big man like me to make a random move. The army can defeat them all."

"Therefore, I plan to attack our Han army in multiple directions. In other words, all of you can serve as the commander-in-chief of an army."

As soon as Liu Che said this.

There was sudden silence in the court hall.

Then, it seemed like the pot was exploding.

The enthusiasm of various courtiers almost overflowed the screen.

Being able to lead an army by oneself does not mean that if one finds the Xiongnu king's tent and kills them all, all the credit will go to him?

This is heaven-shaking wealth!

Of course, it goes without saying much about positivity.

of course.

Many courtiers consciously ignored the idea of ​​being unable to defeat them.

In fact, the previous big victory.

Make their hearts extremely proud and rich.

Only Wei Qing and others.

The worry was clearly visible on his face.

I hesitated many times to speak.

but.

They were all stopped by Liu Che's eyes.

"Your Majesty, if our Han army divides its forces, it will be extremely easy for the Xiongnu to divide it and cannibalize it. What if..."

After hesitating for a long time, some courtiers in the audience finally couldn't help but speak.

Liu Che looked unhappy.

The essence of the plan he and Zhang Wei made was to divide the troops.

The courtiers in the audience want to monopolize the credit, why don't they Liu Che and Zhang Wei do the same?

Furthermore.

There is nothing wrong with what Liu Che said.

The grassland is vast, and the Huns have lost all their main force.

No matter who it is, when they see the news of the division of troops, they will raise their hands and feet in agreement.

In fact, the court officials behaved the same way.

Just ...

"Your Majesty, according to my suggestion, we can divide the troops, but we still need to ensure that each army has at least the number of people to defeat the Huns alone."

After thinking for a while, Wei Qing walked out of the queue.

There was an unconcealable worry in his eyes.

Speaking of which, he still regretted it.

Faced with this extremely noisy court, everyone is noisy and vying for power for their own benefit.

Wei Qing misses the time when the Zhang family was here.

At least, when disagreement arises.

Zhang Wei can come forward and make the final decision.

same.

Faced with the entanglements arising from different interests, the Zhang family can still act as the principals.

Not like Liu Che.

Just let it be.

Liu Che seemed to be aware of Wei Qing's dissatisfaction.

Instead of scolding him, his eyes showed admiration.

Speaking of which, this dynasty was full of civil and military officials.

Only Wei Qing and the Zhang family were the only ones who truly considered the big man.

What about the rest?

Fame, fortune, and fortune are nothing but pursuits to the point of death.

Let alone Wei Qing who misses the Zhang family.

Even he Liu Che.

I miss the Zhang family very much.

Although the Zhang family only left the court briefly.

but.

It was like cutting off his own arm.

Liu Che felt a stagnation, not just because of the incomprehensible government orders.

What's more, there is one less decisive role in the court.

"Everyone, I plan to do as General Wei Qing said. We, the Han Dynasty, will divide our troops, but the number and quantity of our troops must be limited. We must be able to defeat the Xiongnu when we face them. Otherwise, we will lose the basis for our division of troops. .”

"Therefore, I plan to divide the army into five routes: southeast, northwest, and central. I will be in charge of the central army, and Wei Qing will be appointed as the general of chariots and cavalry. He will lead an army by himself and lead the army out of Shuofang and into Monan. Li Xi and others will send troops to Beiping on the right. Coordinate the actions of Wei Qing’s main force. The four armies from the southeast, northwest and southeast will coordinate with each other and attack the Huns’ tent directly!”

"Generals, this battle is related to the fate of our country. It is not the fault of one person, nor is it the fault of one person. I will lead the central army and coordinate the overall situation for you."

As Liu Che's faint words fell.

In the court, no one said a word.

When the emperor makes a decision, his subordinates will naturally follow the rules.

Furthermore, Liu Che's arrangements were perfect.

Wei Qingzi, the biggest hero in the previous battle with the Huns, led the way.

Naturally, no one had any objections.

Even so, Wei Qing's faction declined.

A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

and. Other generals in the army also have appropriate arrangements.

Generally speaking, everyone's interests are in the best interest of everyone.

Win or lose depends on ability.

All are happy.

As the court meeting ended, the war machine of the Han Dynasty quickly started to move.

The war is about to begin again.

Visible to the naked eye.

The whole atmosphere among the big man suddenly became tense.

On the street, pedestrians come and go in a hurry.

Including the chill that filled the air.

Even Zhang Wei felt a little nervous.

The time for the Han Dynasty to march into the grassland was still now, that is, early autumn.

On the one hand, it is due to current events.

On the other hand, it was done deliberately by Zhang Wei and others.

The main thing is that the Huns had a winter nest in the cold winter.

Compared with the season when the grass grows and the orioles fly and everything revives.

As winter approaches, the grasslands are gradually getting colder.

Talking about the crisp autumn air does not work on the grassland.

Although such weather is very unfavorable for the marching and fighting of Han soldiers.

but.

The same disadvantages include the Huns.

In addition, choosing such a season can also have an unexpected effect.

Who would have thought that a big man who was not good at spending time on expeditions would choose such a season to go on an expedition to the grasslands?

Furthermore.

It was a complete failure.

On the Xiongnu side, Shanyu was busy integrating the internal affairs.

Naturally, we are ill-prepared for the coming winter. On the other hand, look at the big man's side.

We have long been prepared to withstand the harsh winter.

They are already ready to fight a protracted war!

Although, everyone wants a quick fix.

However, they also knew that the grassland was vast and the Han still had to prepare more.

The sergeants on the school grounds were coming and going, and Zhang Wei in front of the screen was also making nervous preparations.

Although the Zhang family has already announced its complete withdrawal from the army and even the court.

but.

Liu Che still intends to take Zhang Wei with him as a close minister.

Those who were brought along included those of the Zhang family who were at home.

In addition, Huo Qubing and other generals who were good friends with the Zhang family had already made their own arrangements in the court.

This time, Liu Che specifically stated that Huo Qubing would lead the army alone.

There is no doubt that this is the arrangement of the Zhang family.

At the same time, Liu Che also contributed a lot to this.

It’s not just Zhang Wei’s advice.

Including Huo Qubing's ability, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che admired him very much.

This time, the generals who were close to the Zhang family were basically in the armies of Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.

In Zhang Wei's eyes, the only main forces were Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.

As for everything else.

Who cares?

Of course, there was also a more familiar general who came into Zhang Wei's vision.

Li Guang.

Historically, Li Guang's regret has made countless people sigh.

The same is true for Zhang Wei in front of the screen.

However, he still had no intention of helping him.

Not planning to make too many changes.

The rise of the Zhang family has had a huge impact on the development of the entire historical process.

Unless it would be of great benefit to the Zhang family, he would generally not choose to cause trouble.

Then there is.

As a result of Li Guang's temper, his popularity in the military was not that good.

The ability is there.

but.

Zhang Wei does not intend to spend too much energy studying.

Huo Qubing is enough.

After countless days of study, he already had a rough understanding of the arrangements for the entire war.

Marching and fighting, Zhang Wei in front of the screen didn't understand.

However, Zhang Wei is very familiar with the process and trajectory of history.

Including the private soldiers in the hands of the Zhang family.

This time, Zhang Wei plans to bring them all together.

Waging war against the Xiongnu and gaining merit was also an excellent opportunity for the Zhang family to establish prestige in the army.

It is obvious that the previous retreat was only temporary.

Zhang Wei never thought that the Zhang family's efforts in the military would be in vain.

On the contrary, he planned to let the Zhang family take this opportunity.

Not only did it remove some thorns in the army, but it also logically laid out the layout for the Zhang family in the army.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Wei has already understood some things.

Just relying on the friendship with the emperor will eventually be exhausted one day.

One's own strength and the strength of one's own family are the most fundamental.

From the beginning to the end, Zhang Wei had no intention of rebelling or replacing him.

More importantly, it’s self-protection.

If the Zhang family wants to protect themselves and have a place in the troubled times, military strength is definitely a topic that cannot be avoided.

It is necessary to plan ahead.

Very necessary.

In front of the screen, Zhang Wei looked at a letter on the desk and secretly made up his mind.

sunset.

The setting sun is about to sink into the sky.

There was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

"Enter."

Zhang Wei manipulated Zhang Wangchuan to speak at will.

A person walked into the small courtyard.

"Master, the school grounds that you arranged for our Zhang family to be decorated and all the other things have been prepared. Tomorrow the swearing-in of our Han army will be held as scheduled. Everything for His Majesty's trip has also been basically prepared."

Zhang Wei nodded in front of the screen.

These things are done well.

Nowadays, as the Zhang family has grown, many talents have emerged.

The housekeeper in front of me is also a descendant of the Zhang family, and his name is Zhang Wangde.

He is considered to be of the same generation as Wangchuan.

His ability is so-so, a little worse than Zhang Wangchuan, a conservative man. However, he is arranged to do some things that are neither light nor heavy, but the arrangements are very orderly.

Nowadays, with the development and growth of the Zhang family.

Many talents have also begun to emerge.

Many things in the Zhang family are managed by their own family members.

Firstly, it was reassuring, and secondly, there was no need for the Zhang family to make the shop too big.

Unexpectedly, the power of the Zhang family has already attracted the hostility of many people.

The further he develops, the more Zhang Wei needs to walk on thin ice.

At the moment, except for some particularly important matters in the court, Zhang Wei doesn't pay much attention to them.

Of course, you still have to get involved in the Zhang family's intelligence network in private to find out.

Zhang Wei never hoped that his temporary withdrawal would cause the Zhang family to be disconnected and destroy the Zhang family's arrangements in the military and even in the court.

Everything seems to have entered the original development track.

In addition to the absence of his Zhang family, the movement of the track was slightly blocked.

Not only Liu Che, but also the entire court felt that due to the absence of the Zhang family, many things were not running so smoothly.

It's as if a healthy person's joints are not so lubricated.

It’s not like he can’t move normally.

That is, it's usually fine, but if something big happens, the impact will be huge.

However, what does it have to do with the Zhang family?

Zhang Wei controlled the rise of the Zhang family, but at the same time, the price he paid was that the Zhang family suffered too much.

Not only the criticism in the court, but also everything was done silently by his Zhang family.

Throughout the dynasties, it was rare to find officials like the Zhang family who shouldered all the dirty work and produced outstanding officials from generation to generation.

Even some heads of the Zhang family are not that smart.

However, their loyalty and everything they did was pleasing to the emperor.

"Right now, the most important thing is this second war. In any case, the proposal was made by my Zhang family in front of Liu Che. It must succeed!"

Zhang Wei murmured to himself in front of the screen.

I was feeling a little nervous inside.

Different from the previous first war, Zhang Wei almost didn't hold much hope. Zhang Wei just did everything he could and left it to God's will and coincidence.

This second war, not to mention the role played by the Zhang family in it.

Let's just say that the Zhang family's efforts to prevent internal attacks and start a war had aroused the dissatisfaction of many courtiers.

In fact, Liu Che also wanted to fight the Xiongnu as soon as possible, but Zhang Wei forcefully dissuaded him.

Now, with Zhang Wei's nod, the war is about to break out.

Zhang Wei wants to win this war more than anyone else.

No, it is not just the victory of the Han Dynasty, what Zhang Wei hopes is the victory of his Zhang family, and the victory of their faction.

Factional disputes are inevitable throughout history.

The Zhang family, even if they don't want to fall into it, still have no way to escape.

Fortunately, Zhang Wei greatly downplayed this point and was by the emperor's side from beginning to end.

The identities they play are so-called loyal ministers.

In the short term, at least in front of Mingjun, there is no chance that the Zhang family will have any problems.

Just be afraid...

No dynasty lasts forever, and no empire lasts for thousands of years.

All Zhang Wei can do is to sway along with the trend of history.

Also, try to protect the Zhang family as much as possible.
