: Extra Story: The Rising Sun

Emperor Wu liked Huo Qubing. Apart from the fact that Huo Qubing was similar to himself in many aspects, another aspect was Wei Qing, because Wei Qing was too good at fighting. Similarly, the reason why Li Gan was able to receive such treatment in this life was really because the flying general was too good at fighting. up.

Although the Emperor Han was indifferent in many personnel matters because he put the country as the most important thing, but in the face of the Xiongnu, the Emperor Han was basically the same.

Wei Qing is currently the number one officer under Emperor Wu, the leader who beat the Xiongnu, Wei Qing valued Huo Qubing, so Emperor Wu would train Huo Qubing, but Huo Qubing didn't learn military art at all, which disappointed Emperor Wu. In Emperor Wu's view, military art must be learned.

"Learn a fart!" Huo Qubing said to Li Gan when he was running.

"That's right, what a fart, it's only five thousand Huns, and you're still looking forward and backward, and you're done." Someone from the Trinity said very unhappily. The three brothers have never met each other in this life. Don't dare to launch an attack, just do it!

"When my uncle comes back, I'll follow him to the battlefield, and I'll demonstrate it on the spot, the art of war? It's a trick to deceive ghosts!" Huo Qubing, who was chased by Emperor Wu and used Sun Tzu's art of war, said very dissatisfied.

"I'll go too, I have 10,000 people, he has 5,000 people, I will lose?" Someone from Trinity said angrily, "Will you lose?"

"Losing a fart! Don't let me have a chance. If I do, I will show you how to tear up the Huns!" Huo Qubing was furious, he hated the word "lose".

Afterwards, Emperor Wu tried to teach the two brats the art of war again when he was free, but it was useless. One said, "The other party is here, and dare to attack me? This is because I am impatient!" The other said, "I think You don’t need to think at all, you can win if you fight directly!”

The angry Emperor Wu picked up Erjin's Sun Tzu's Art of War and chased these two people to fight, but he didn't know that these two things really didn't talk nonsense, not only did they really think so, but they really did it.

In the second year of Yuanshuo, last year a group of Xiongnu Wanqi was smashed in Yanmen, which made the Xiongnu calm down for a while, and Wei Qing and the flying generals were able to return to Chang'an.

Huo Qubing and Li Gan were able to meet their uncle and father, and then Huo Qubing expressed that he wanted to go to the battlefield with great interest. Wei Qing just patted Huo Qubing's head and said that he would take Huo Qubing to the battlefield when he was older.

"Study the art of war well, when uncle will take you to the battlefield, the Huns are really strong." Wei Qing said with some emotion while touching Huo Qubing's head.

"Are the Huns really strong?" Huo Qubing asked with some doubts.

"Very strong." Wei Qing's expression became a lot more serious.

"Then the uncle who defeated the Xiongnu will be stronger." Huo Qubing said excitedly.

"It's just annihilating a team of ten thousand cavalry, and the Huns always have twenty-four such teams, and there are twelve great dignitaries on top of them, and there are Shan Yu on top of them." Wei Qing said with a bit of worry, just because The Huns had fought against each other before, and Wei Qing could better understand the horror of the Huns.

"When I grow up, I will go to the north to fight the Xiongnu." Huo Qubing had a high-spirited expression on his face, and there was no fear of the Xiongnu in his eyes.

You must know that at this time, even Wei Qing is in awe of the Huns. Don't look at the fact that the Han Dynasty is starting to fight back against the Huns, but the fighting power displayed by the Huns is too strong. Don't know how to deal with it.

It is only one of the 240,000 cavalry troops who can fight against the main force of the Han army led by Wei Qing. Just thinking about it, Wei Qing knows that the victories of the Han army in the past two years are nothing at all. Still very strong.

"If you have time, you can learn horseback riding and archery with the flying general." Wei Qing changed the topic, he knew his image in Huo Qubing's mind, and he didn't want to hurt his nephew.

"I heard that the flying general is very strong?" Huo Qubing asked curiously.

"Yes." Wei Qing nodded and said, and then felt that this description was not enough, and added, "It's really very strong."

In the days that followed, Emperor Wu and Wei Qing had been looking for the Huns' flaws, and were planning to find another opportunity to kill the Huns, while Huo Qubing went to learn martial arts from the flying generals. Unlike the official history, this time the flying generals performed amazingly and successfully became a marquis and entered the Han Empire. The innermost circle.

The days passed by little by little until winter. Both Emperor Wu and Wei Qing believed that there was no chance to attack the Xiongnu in a short time, and they needed to practice their internal skills hard. They also gave up the idea of ​​teaching Huo Qubing and Trinity someone's art of war, because their thinking It's too weird.

However, unlike Emperor Wu who was relatively disappointed, Wei Qing discovered after several teachings that Huo Qubing and someone from Trinity had strange ideas, but if they could really assess the situation, they would truly be single-minded in command, preemptive strikes, avoiding the real and attacking the false. , Bing is expensive and fast, and it can be done theoretically.

It's just that this is more difficult, but Wei Qing didn't hit the two of them, he just smiled and said that when the two are older, they will know when they go to the battlefield.

Huo Qubing said arrogantly that I would be absolutely invincible, and someone from Trinity also followed Gonghuo and said that I saw someone who was invincible being beaten today, and then the two started fighting.

But Wei Qing didn't rest for too long, because the Huns were bored and sent troops on a large scale. Shanggu and Yuyang were completely invaded. Afterwards, the whole western Liaoning was attacked by the Huns. The prefect of Liaoxi died suddenly on the spot. The soldiers and horses attacked directly.

The official history of the Battle of Henan and Monan kicked off.

The tactics this time were no different from the official history. Li Xi attacked from Daijun, and Wei Qing led a large army to attack the area south of the Yellow River where the Huns were entrenched. Using the "roundabout" tactic, Li Xi and others went around to the rear of the Huns and quickly Capture Gaoque and cut off the connection between the Xiongnu and the Huns royal court south of the Yellow River.

After that, Wei Qing led the main force to surround the Xiongnu from Long County (less than 200 kilometers away from Chang'an), stormed the territory of King Loufan and King Aries, defeated them, captured thousands of people, and seized millions of cattle and sheep. Chang'an was approaching Counties and counties were able to separate from the front of the Huns in the north.

However, even if this battle was fought to such an extent, King Loufan and King Aries still failed to capture King Loufan and King Aries even though the Huns were completely surrounded.

But even so, Emperor Wu was very satisfied. At least in the future, Chang'an will barely be under the Huns' vanguard. In the past, the Huns were too close to Chang'an, and they could rush to the suburbs of Chang'an in the time it took to make a meal. Now at least There is still time to react.

Therefore, Emperor Wu who was in a good mood increased the rewards for the meritorious ministers, and then Emperor Wu quickly moved the population and built Shuofang City and Wuyuan City in the occupied areas.

When he saw the establishment of Wuyuan County, the general was a little bit complicated. He didn't study history well, he never thought that his hometown was taken over so little.

As for the Xiongnu, to be honest, the Xiongnu’s condition is not very good this year, not because they were beaten by the Han Dynasty. To be precise, the loss caused by the Han Dynasty to the Xiongnu is nothing at all, even if it is a loss inside the wall. , Make up outside the wall, this year the Huns gained more than they lost.

When the Han Dynasty was engaged in the Battle of Henan and Monan, the royal court forces of the Huns completely defeated the Yuezhi, drove the Yuezhi thousands of miles west again, and completely ruled the Western Regions.

There was only one reason why the Huns were not in good condition. The military minister Shanyu had some health problems, and the following year, the military minister Shanyu died, and then Yin Zhixie took the position of Shanyu as King Zuoguli, and the military minister Shanyu His son ran away overnight and threw himself into the Han Dynasty.

By the way, Zhang Qian also ran back while taking advantage of the chaos in the Huns, and brought a large number of maps of the Huns and the current situation of the Western Regions to the Han Dynasty.

It is equivalent to running alone to the Han Dynasty. The first time Emperor Wu accepted him, he conferred the title of Marquis of She'an, and tried to win over nobles who might work for Yu Shan. to cheap.

However, at this time, the Huns were in their heyday. Yu Danpao, who was only in his twenties, "died of illness" less than three months after arriving in the Han Dynasty. Xie's army had already attacked Daijun, Yanmen, Dingxiang, Shangjun and other places at the same time, and quickly killed the prefect of Bianjun.

At that time, the Xiongnu soldiers were less than 300 kilometers away from Chang'an City. With the speed of the Hun cavalry, they could rush to Chang'an City within a few days, and the war was imminent.

However, Emperor Wu, who had been prepared for a long time, was right this time. When he received the news that the military minister Shan Yu was not good, he was ready to fight the Huns.

I just didn't expect that Yin Zhixie's actions were so fast that the Han army had not had time to take advantage of it, and the Xiongnu had calmed down. It was obvious that Xin Shanyu was also a ruthless person.

Wei Qing took command again. After the previous battle, Wei Qing's mentality became more stable, and his fear of the Huns was much less. Adventured a lot.

However, the difference from the official history is that this time the flying general is the vanguard. Since the last time he used the flying general card vanguard, Wei Qing realized that personal courage is really useful, so this time he led the troops himself and led the flying general again. Bring it on.

There is no difference between the tactics and the official history. Dali Xi and Antouhou Zhang Cigong went to Beiping County on the right to attack the left part of the Xiongnu as a check; Wei Qing led 30,000 cavalry to Shuofang and Gaoque.

Still the same sentence, at present the Huns as a whole are in a strategic advantage and have the qualifications to despise all countries in the Quartet. Although one of the 240,000 cavalry was annihilated by the Han army before, at the national level, the 240,000 cavalry is nothing more than an army The loss of the ordinary guard force is hardly a heartache, but more of a loss of face.

Therefore, when he received 30,000 elite riders from the Han army to leave Shuofang, King Youxian didn't take it seriously at all. In fact, except for the Weiqing Department, the performance of the other generals and schools was also at the level of containment.

However, because of these restraints, Wei Qing found that the Xiongnu didn't seem to take him seriously, so he tried to cross the river quietly to Wuyuan County, and found that the Xiongnu were indeed negligent. court.

The divine soldiers descended from the sky, King Youxian did not react at all, Wei Qing rushed into the royal court, due to negligence, the guards of the royal court failed to form an effective counterattack, and were directly killed by Wei Qing, King Youxian led his personal guards quickly retreat.

In the official history, although King Youxian was negligent, Wei Qing was so strong that he was invincible at the same time, and successfully killed King Youxian's court, but under the resistance of Wangting's guards, King Youxian was able to escape, but this The next time, King You Xian failed to escape.

Still the same sentence, the flying general didn't mention the command, but said that the individual combat power is absolutely invincible in the world. The Huns' royal guards were able to stop Wei Qing in the chaos at the beginning. .

However, the most important thing for flying generals is the explosive combat power of individuals. Flying generals on the front line of the establishment can't do it, and they can harvest the heads of fierce generals in the chaos? Who can stop it!

King Youxian bestowed the head, the entire royal court collapsed, and Wei Qing arrested tens of thousands of people and returned.

To be honest, the quality of the Xiongnu was still high at this time, and the war was like this, Wei Qing had arrested tens of thousands of people, and the others either frantically resisted Wei Qing and died in battle, or retreated.

However, after this battle, Wei Qing completely dispelled his inner fears. Is this the Huns royal court? The guards of the royal court can fight, but they seem to be on par with the headquarters under his command. Although this is outrageous, Wei Qing has always placed the Xiongnu in a high position. After all, he is a challenger, and the Huns are really invincible in recent decades. The presence.

As a result, the core headquarters of the Xiongnu Royal Court was almost the same as our own, strong but very strong, but they were all on the same level as ourselves, so what are we afraid of!

With this logic, Wei Qing's behavior of restraining his hands and feet before was released.

When the battle report was sent back, Emperor Wu was so happy that he sent a special envoy holding the seal to worship Wei Qing as a general in the army. The Battle of Hungary, since the siege of Baideng, the highest result.

As for the flying general, in addition to adding food to the flying general, King Youxian's head also gave a lieutenant to the flying general's son.

Wei Qing distributed his merits to others as much as possible, successfully created several Liehou and Guanneihou, and then asked Emperor Wu to increase his troops, because Wei Qing saw it as a very good opportunity at this time.

If it is said that before Wei Qing was afraid of the Xiongnu, he was worried that the Xiongnu would counterattack, and after smashing the royal court of the Right Wise King, Wei Qing no longer regarded the Huns as a higher-level powerhouse, but an equal opponent, so many people dared not do it before. Wei Qing dared to do what he wanted—he was going to besiege Wang Ting.

The second out of Dingxiang took place under such a premise.

This year, Huo Qubing was seventeen years old, and Emperor Wu, who was troubled by Huo Qubing, canonized Huo Qubing as Captain Yao, and asked him to go to Dingxiang to go out with his uncle. Someone from the Trinity also followed. These two people thought what the Huns wanted too long.

After all, I have been stubborn for so many years, and every time I was criticized by Emperor Wu in the art of war test, both of them were very upset-when I went to the battlefield, I would use the answers I wrote to attack the Xiongnu, what art of war is not art of war!
