my brother champion

As soon as Huo Guang's words came out, the entire court was shocked.

The army was defeated like a mountain.

In this case, if the troops are not withdrawn in time, the end will be annihilation of the whole army.

What he said just now.

He wanted to put all the soldiers who followed Li Guangli to the Dawan Kingdom to death!
Immediately.

There was an uproar in the court.

And relatively.

Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who was sitting on a high seat, had an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.

Without him.

It happened that what Huo Guang said was exactly the same as what he thought in his heart.

Originally, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che was planning to send envoys directly to guard Yumen Pass. If any Han army retreated without authorization, he could kill them with a staff, thus deterring the retreating Han army from losing face to the court.

however.

After hearing what Huo Guang said, Emperor Wu of the Han didn't want to order directly again.

That way.

Not conducive to one's own rule.

then.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che raised his eyebrows, looked at Huo Guang, and asked, "Oh? Marquis Bo Lu means that Li Guang will continue to attack Dawan with his army?"

however.

Huo Guang didn't wait for an answer.

The newly appointed prime minister, Zhao Zhou, immediately raised objections.

Zhao Zhou, the Marquis of Gaoling, held the wat board in both hands, and said bluntly, "Your Majesty, you must not listen to Marquis Bolu's words."

"General Li sent an envoy to report, which has clearly indicated that the army's food and grass are exhausted."

"I am a big man who is not afraid of death."

"But without food and grass, how can we fight the soldiers of Dawan Kingdom? If we insist on letting them go, wouldn't it be like hitting a stone with an egg!"

Zhao Zhou, Marquis of Gaoling, was the new prime minister appointed by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty after the former prime minister Zhuang Qingzhai dismounted.

As for Zhuang Qingzhai?
He had long been exposed to the incident involving Zhang Tang, the imperial censor. He knew that he was doomed and was unwilling to be interrogated by the cruel officials of Tingwei, so he committed suicide.

The cruel officials of the Han Dynasty were really cruel.

Whether it was the former prime minister Li Cai, the former prime minister Zhuang Qingzhai, or even the imperial historian Zhang Tang in the original history, when they fell from the horse, they all chose to commit suicide.

Even.

They are innocent, and they are not willing to accept the interrogation of those officers with swords and pens.

this point.

Including the old General Li Guang.

Li Guang in the TV series died in Mobei, but Li Guang in the history books committed suicide because he did not want to be interrogated by the shogunate.

The shogunate is the residence of General Wei Qing.

It was also for this reason that Li Gancai, Marquis of Guannei, aimed at Wei Qing and stabbed the general, which caused Huo Qubing to attack him later.

Otherwise, according to what was shown in the TV series, Li Guang died in the Battle of Mobei and dedicated himself to the country.

It's an honor no matter what!
How could it lead to subsequent conflicts?

Logic is not self-consistent, right?

At this moment, Huo Guang frowned when he heard Gaoling Hou Zhao Zhou's words, and asked: "Prime Minister, you said just now that you said that an egg hits a stone, did I hear it right?"

Zhao Zhou nodded and said, "The truth is what I said."

There was no conflict between Gao Linghou and Huo Guang, and there was no enmity before.

This time.

It's just that I said what I thought, so it's not intentional to target Huo Guang.

But there was indeed a political conflict between the two at the moment.

"Just admit it's what you said!" Huo Guang looked at Zhao Zhou, and after hearing his words, his face with a slight smile suddenly turned into an angry look, and said, "Your Majesty, the prime minister should be punished, but he dared to It is said that my imperial court and the Han army are attacking a small Dawan country with an egg against a stone!"

"The Xiongnu's [-] cavalry were all wiped out by our Han army three years ago."

"how?"

"A small Dawan country can be said to be hitting a stone with an egg!"

"Then should I bow down to Dawan Kingdom as a vassal?"

When Huo Guang said the words "bow your head and proclaim your minister", all the officials in Weiyang Palace were shocked.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che, who was in a high position, also changed his expression.

He immediately glared at Huo Guang and said, "Marquis Bo Lu, what are you talking nonsense about?"

Huo Guang immediately cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, it's not the minister who is talking nonsense, but the prime minister is trying to uplift others' prestige and destroy his own morale."

Prime Minister Zhao Zhou immediately held up the wat board with both hands and said: "Your Majesty, this is not what I meant. Marquis Bo Lu is him."

Not finished.

Emperor Wu of the Han snorted angrily and said, "Enough!"

"I don't want to hear your nonsense."

"If you want to quarrel, when the court meeting is over, I will lock you up together, then you will have plenty of time to quarrel."

"What I'm asking now is, how to fight this battle?"

The words fall.

The originally noisy discussions in the court hall suddenly quieted down.

even.

We could hear each other's breathing.

Seeing the silence of the crowd, Emperor Wu of the Han immediately became very annoyed, and cursed: "Didn't everyone keep arguing with each other just now? Why, now I ask you how to fight the battle, and everyone is like that turtle, what are you doing with your head back?" ?”

however.

Still no one in the court took the initiative to speak.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is on fire, who dares to touch this bad head.

then.

At this time, Emperor Wu of the Han snorted, and slowly shifted his gaze to Huo Guang, and asked, "Bo Luhou, didn't you have a fierce argument with the prime minister just now, why didn't you speak?"

Seeing that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty clicked on himself.

Huo Guang stood up without hesitation and said, "Your Majesty, I was just thinking about why our Han army in the South Camp was defeated by a small country."

"This Dawan country is not as good as my big Han state!"

"Is its army really so powerful? Even our Han army can't fight against it? Even the prime minister was so frightened that he used the phrase 'strike a stone with an egg'!"

"Ha ha!"

"I don't think so."

"Soldiers are weak, even if it is an individual, how can the victory or defeat be attributed to the soldiers; if the general is not good, the whole army will be affected, and it is hard to escape the blame."

In fact, Huo Guang really wanted to say "one raging soldier, one raging nest".

pity.

This is the Han Dynasty.

To put it simply, they can't understand it.

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard Huo Guang's words, he narrowed his eyes and asked, "What do you mean, you want me to change generals?"

Huo Guang immediately held up his hands and said, "How dare I ask your Majesty? I'm just stating my own opinions."

The words fall.

Emperor Wu of the Han waved his robe, leaned forward slightly, and said, "What Bo Luhou said has some truths, dear dears, is there anyone who is willing to accept orders in the face of danger?"

As soon as this word comes out.

Ministers in the court, you look at me, and I look at you.

Subsequently.

Qiqi lowered his head even more.

No one is willing to take the blame.

In the first battle against Dawan, the Han army was short of food, morale was low, and now it suffered heavy casualties.

Now replace Li Guangli?
Isn't that purely taking the blame for others?

Li Guangli is Mrs. Li's elder brother, and Mrs. Li is the concubine of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It's okay for Li Guangli to be defeated. If it's another person, without this relationship, he might really be a scapegoat.

Seeing that no one in the court is willing to replace Li Guangli.

Huo Guang was about to speak, but just as he opened his mouth, before the words came out, the General Sima Weiqing took a step ahead of him and said first: "Your Majesty, let me go!"

"Nanda Camp was trained by me in the past. It is most suitable for me to go!"

"Please allow Your Majesty."

As soon as Wei Qing spoke, several people immediately stood up and expressed their willingness to accompany the general.

no way.

Who told this to be General Wei Qing, even if Emperor Wu of Han seized his military power.

But as soon as he stood up, everyone knew he was safe.

however.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who was above the high position, stood up at this time, walked slowly to the side of the general Wei Qing, with a casual smile on his face, and said: "Why do you use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken? Dawan, you have to use my sword." General, isn't it ridiculous!"

When Wei Qing heard this, he became anxious.

Since the first battle in Mobei, how long has he not touched the military power?
Not greedy for power.

It's just that as a general, there is no reason to be willing to follow others and watch others fight.

"Your Majesty, sir."

Wei Qing still wanted to struggle, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty stopped smiling, stretched out his hand and interrupted: "No need to say more, I already have a plan in mind."

Done.

Emperor Wu of the Han quickly walked back to his original position, with his back to the ministers, his back to the ministers.

a long time.

He suddenly turned around and said: "General Chariot and Cavalry!"

As soon as these four words were uttered, everyone wondered, why did His Majesty suddenly call General Cheqi?
and also
Who is the cavalry general?

Just when the Sangong and Jiuqing officials were puzzled, Huo Guang suddenly stood up, cupped his hands and said, "The minister is here."

In an instant.

The officials of the San Gong Jiu Qing came to their senses instantly.

correct.

Bo Luhou is the general of chariots and cavalry.

Your Majesty, are you going to let him go?

Many officials didn't have time to think about it, so they heard Emperor Wu of the Han continue to say: "You said just now that the reason for the defeat in the conquest of Dawan Kingdom was the main general."

"Well."

"If I send you there now, how should you deal with this situation?"

"This" Huo Guang pretended to hesitate, and then said slowly: "Your Majesty, I don't like military books, but I also know that Sun Wu wrote books."

"As a general, it should be the first to attack the plan, followed by the attack on the enemy, followed by the attack on the soldiers, and the next is the attack on the city."

"Your Majesty will let me serve as your general."

"I will first surrender the enemy's troops and will not take the initiative to fight. I will not use the method of storming to conquer the enemy's city. The conquest of Dawan will not prolong the war."

Emperor Wu of Han frowned slightly, and said, "Can you be more specific?"

more specific?
Forehead.
Huo Guang frowned slightly. He hadn't thought about the specifics yet, but he still bit the bullet and said, "Your Majesty, a good fighter should be adaptable, and he dare not have a perfect plan."

"Even at this time, I will make a decision in Chang'an."

"But things on the battlefield are changing rapidly. If you go to Dawan Kingdom, it will be different. The previous method will become a burden instead."

"Therefore."

"Your Majesty, I beg you not to ask me to formulate a strategy at this time."

After hearing this, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought for a while.

There was a little displeasure on his face.

But he still waved his hand and said: "Okay, since you say so, I will believe you."

"Go back and pack your things."

"Prepare to go outside Yumen Pass to take over Li Guangli's position, and conquer Dawan Kingdom in the name of the imperial court."

"promise"

After this time, the court meeting broke up.

The three princes and nine ministers withdrew from the palace in order, and Huo Guang also returned to the Huo Family Mansion.

after come back.

He asked his servants to pack up his things and prepared to leave for Yumen Pass.

After saying goodbye to my sister-in-law.

Huo Guang asked someone to call Zhao Daniu and take him on the road together.

At this time.

But the servant came running and shouted: "Bo Luhou, the brother and sister from Sang Danong's mansion came here and said they were looking for you!"

The brothers and sisters in the Sang Danong mansion?

Isn't that Sang Meiren and Sang Qian?
Huo Guang frowned slightly, then nodded slowly and said, "Let them come in."

"promise."

After the servant responded, he trotted out and brought Sang Qian and Sang Mei in.

Sang Qian was a few years older than Huo Guang. After becoming a close minister around Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he had become quite stable.

After the three met.

Sang Qian cupped his hands and said, "Bo Luhou is ready to go?"

Huo Guang nodded and said, "Yes, brother Sang, did you hear what your father Sang Danong said?"

Sang Qian nodded, and then said: "Bo Luhou, I heard that General Li led the South Camp to attack and was defeated in Yu Chengcheng. There were many casualties?"

Hearing this, Huo Guang glanced at Sang Qian, with a little doubt in his eyes, and asked, "Why are you asking this?"

Sang Qian's face was slightly embarrassed, but he still said: "I heard from my father that your Majesty did not send additional troops to you when you went to replace Li Guangli as the commander-in-chief this time."

"It's because of the lack of food, the lack of soldiers, and the lack of soldiers."

"So my little sister and I are a little worried"

Worry?worry about what!
Huo Guang snorted softly, and said, "There's nothing to worry about. Dawan is a tiny place, and the entire Dawan has a population of just 30."

"As for the remaining soldiers in my South Camp, there are still four thousand!"

"Compared this time, I have the advantage."

As soon as these words came out, the two of them were stunned.

Sang Qian wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.On the other hand, Sang Mei said: "Huo Guang, don't be arrogant, Li Guangli's lesson from the past is not enough!"

Huo Guang glanced sideways at Sang Meiren, and said, "What is he that can be compared with this Marquis?"

"I won't talk to you two anymore."

"The Marquis is about to set off now, heading for Yumen Pass."

After saying that, Huo Guang strode in, ignoring the Sang brother and sister.

Seeing Huo Guang's indifferent attitude towards her, Sang Mei immediately stamped her feet and said, "Huo Guang, don't be ignorant of good people, we kindly remind you."

however.

Huo Guang had already left the house at this time, ignoring Sang Meiren who was following behind him.

Sang Qian pulled Sang Meiren and said, "Okay, little sister. I said don't come. You don't know what kind of temper Bo Luhou is? You see, in the end, I still made myself unhappy!"

however.

Sang Mei gave her elder brother a glare.

Sang Qian was helpless.

I had to pick my nose with my hands, and then looked into the distance
Here.

After Huo Guang left Huo Mansion, he got into the carriage and drove towards the gate of the city.

Zhao Daniu was riding a big horse and following behind the carriage.

Inside the carriage.

Huo Guang was looking through the bamboo slips about the relevant information of Dawan Kingdom, which he had already entrusted someone to collect.

While looking at these, outside the carriage, Zhao Daniu suddenly scolded.

"Hey, what are you doing, what are you doing here?" Zhao Daniu's voice was as rough as thunder.

At this time.

Only a familiar voice sounded.

"Brother Danniu, don't be nervous, my family. I came back from Liangzhou in accordance with the order of Marquis Bolu to collect information about the frontline battlefield."

Hear this.

Huo Guang knew it was from Jin Yiwei.

As early as the beginning of the war, Huo Guang sent people from Jinyiwei to inquire about the situation there.

Generally speaking.

If there is no special news, Jin Yiwei will not come back from there to report.

It seems.

What's the big deal.

Huo Guang lifted the curtain of the car now, poked his head out, waved his hand and said, "Daniu, let him come over."

"Oh."

Daniel snorted.

immediately.

The man from Jinyiwei let him go and handed a stack of letter papers to Huo Guang.

On the court.

Although bamboo slips are still used for most important events, Huo Guang has tried to use book paper as much as possible here.

After all, it is convenient.

After receiving the stack of letters, Huo Guang unpacked one of the packages, took out the letter paper inside and looked at it, his brows were wrinkled, and a strong murderous look flashed in his eyes.

"Lieutenant Lin Yaoqing, died in Yu Chengcheng" (end of this chapter)
