The Son of Heaven had already left Penglai Pavilion, and the ministers began to withdraw in an orderly manner.

Zhang Yue was still sitting in his seat, digesting the matter of this court meeting.

"Hexi should have already engaged in the battle, right?" He thought, "It's just...... I don't know if it's the direction of the wheel platform or the direction of Lingju......"

But no matter which side it is, fighting on two fronts will always be at a loss.

Troops, materials, and morale will all have an impact and restrictions.

Especially in the Hexi Corridor, the special geographical environment made it much more difficult for the Han cavalry to march in it.

Although Zhang Yue has never been to Hexi in his past and present life, he does not know the specific situation in the local area.

But I have seen a lot of documentaries and news reports.

The situation in Gansu and Ningxia is also somewhat understood.

Even after 2,000 years, the local traffic environment is not so comfortable.

As for now?

Zhang Yue just thought about it, even if it was the idol Huo Quai, it was only taken down in Hexi twice, I am afraid that the traffic environment in Hexi has obstacles that even Huo Qubing and other heavenly prides and unequaled war gods cannot overcome!

In other words, in fact, a two-front battle is very unfavorable to the Han army.

"I hope that Li Guangli can effectively implement the edict of the Son of Heaven, appease the Qiang people, and suppress the Yueshi ......"

At this time, Prime Minister Li Guangli took his subordinate officers and began to get up.

Zhang Yue also planned to leave and talk to Wang Mang or Huo Guang, but just as he got up, he heard Guo Sui's voice: "Ying Yang, please stay, Your Majesty invites Ying Yang to enter the Forbidden Palace!" ”

Zhang Yue frowned slightly when he heard this, looked at Guo Sui, and nodded: "Got it!" ”

But there are some doubts in my heart.

Staying for this kind of thing is equivalent to the end of the meeting of the leaders of later generations, and when the meeting is announced, they suddenly call so-and-so to stay and talk.

Generally, it is either to be promoted, raised, and burdened, or to be scolded.

Considering the current situation, Zhang Yue felt a little furious in his heart.

After admonishing Sima Xuan and others, Zhang Yue followed Guo Sui and came to the Son of Heaven's bedroom.

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Yue walked in and saw the Son of Heaven half-lying, leaning on a bamboo chair, and looking at a pair of Kanyu hanging on the palace wall.

Kanyu is wooden, and Zhang Yue's angle is not very clear.

However, judging from the color and material, it should be some years.

"Are you looking at Hexi Kanyu?" Zhang Yue asked softly.

"Hmm!" The Son of Heaven nodded, his eyes still on Nakanyu.

Although he has never been on the battlefield in this life, he has never personally commanded and commanded a large army in battle.

However...... In military affairs, especially in strategic deployment and planning, he is a genius!

Since Yuanguang to the present, every major military action of the Han family has been a strategic task deployed by him.

When it comes to war, he is an expert with absolute right to speak!

"Does Ying Yang know the geography of the four counties in Hexi?" The Son of Heaven asked softly.

Zhang Yue hurriedly bowed his head and replied: "Your Majesty, the minister is stupid, and I have only heard of some ......."

The Son of Heaven smiled and said, "The four counties of Hexi, the two counties of the first book, Wuwei and Jiuquan are also!" ”

He stood up, held up a lantern that had been placed beside him, and walked over to the wall, illuminating the wooden kenyu depicted in lines.

"At first, it was just because of the mountains, west of Qilian Mountain, it was Jiuquan, and east of Qilian Mountain was Wuwei!"

He pointed to both sides of the Kanyu and said: "Later, because of the war on Dawan, I divided Jiuquan land, placed Dunhuang County, and became the Xiongnu, and took land from Jiuquan and Wuwei to place Zhangye County, and changed Yongzhou to Liangzhou, and built the Liangzhou Thorn History Department, to govern the four counties of Beidi, Longxi, Zhangye, Jiuquan, Wuwei and Dunhuang!" ”

"And the four counties in Hexi are placed because of the river!"

"Dunhuang is dominated by the Duanshui Basin, Jiuquan is dominated by the Qianggu Basin, Zhangye is dominated by the Hunu Basin, and Wuwei is in ......the Zhushui Basin."

Zhang Yue listened, looked at Nakanyu, and in his heart, compared these ancient rivers with the rivers of later generations.

He found that the so-called Jiduanshui should be the Shule River in later generations, while the Hunu Water should be the Shiyang River, and the Qianggu Water should be the Heihe River.

These are all river systems that originate from the Qilian Mountains.

It is also the source of life in the Hexi Corridor and the fundamental lifeblood of Hexi's agriculture and animal husbandry.

The Han family's strategy of ruling by the river is correct.

But......

Looking at Nakanyu, combined with the geographical knowledge in some textbooks retrospectively, Zhang Yue couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, the minister is stupid, and the minister looks at it, Qilian Mountain, which crosses the connection between Lingju and Juyan, if there is something in the direction of Juyan or Yumen, if our army wants to move from the north of Qilian Mountain to Shanxi, it must go around hundreds of miles, and vice versa!" ”

"Indeed!" The Son of Heaven nodded with a smile, pointed in the direction of Lingju, and said: "At the beginning, when the hussar general first invaded Hexi, he went from the north to Zhangye, and hunted with the Hun Hun evil king in Gaolan Mountain......"

When Zhang Yue heard this, he was in awe, and said: "The minister has also heard that the battle of Da Sima Gaolan Mountain, the story of breaking the backbone of the Huns!" ”

Today, or in the future, the source of all the examples of a Han and a Wuhu began with the bloody battle of Gaolan Mountain!

Before the battle of Gaolan Mountain, the arrogance of the Huns was very high.

Even if they lost the loop, they still didn't feel that there was anything wrong with them.

In his eyes, he is the first in the world of labor and capital, and he is very arrogant!

often through the desert and grassland, harassing and invading the Han family's border fortress.

Sometimes, it comes dozens of times a year.

However, after the battle of Gaolan Mountain, the frequency of the Huns' invasion of Hanse became lower and lower, and after the decisive battle of Mobei, there was no royal court in Monan.

And this battle was fought extremely fiercely!

Huo Quai's main force, after fighting this battle, withdrew from the battle and withdrew to Longxi by the same route.

Legend has it that after the battle, only two adults of the three commanders who served as the vanguard were still standing.

Huo Quai's personal guard Yao Lieutenant Department, in the end, only less than a hundred people could still walk.

The losses of the Han army set an unprecedented record!

The 10,000 elite cavalry and thousands of cavalry who participated in the battle suffered more than 50% of the battle losses unprecedented in the classical era!

However, their sacrifice was worth it.

Because, in Gaolan Mountain, they completely annihilated the three ace tribes of the Huns!

Moreover, it was head-to-head, and in the case of no superiority in numbers and no geographical advantage, the white-edged charge trampled the Hun cavalry under their feet and completely shattered their backbones!

After this battle, the following year, Huo Quai's illness and then cut down Hexi, the momentum was like a bamboo, almost no resistance was encountered, and even performed a miracle show that single-handedly made tens of thousands of people lay down their arms and surrender to the Han family!

It was also since then that the slogan of Yihan as Wuhu began to spread.

But putting aside this aura, everyone will know one fact: Hexi is the only place where Huo Qubing needs to take it down twice!

Even Huo Quzhi, who is the best at fast interspersing and dislikes frontal toughness, has been forced to have a head-on decisive battle with the Huns in Hexi, the main force duel, and the most brutal white-knuckle fight.

As you can imagine, the geography and environment of the Hexi region.

That's not a flat place, and it's not a place where you can maneuver quickly.

Especially, this is especially true when it is necessary to cross the Qilian Mountains!

The Son of Heaven didn't say much, just looked at Na Kanyu and muttered to himself: "I know that the Second Division General wants to make a great contribution and prove it to me and the world!" ”

"And this is indeed a good opportunity!"

Li Guangli, the general of the Second Division, was a general he personally helped up and cultivated.

From Chang'an's relatives and gentlemen, to the generals of Biansai and the marshal of Hexi, the Son of Heaven knows Li Guangli's efforts and achievements.

In the two Dawan Wars, the Battle of Tianshan and the Battle of Yuwushui, Li Guangli's performance became more mature each time.

To be reasonable, if it weren't for the rise in front of him, the Son of Heaven believed that sooner or later, Li Guangli would prove himself to the world.

Pity......

The rise of General Ying Yang caused him to have to come up with results as soon as possible.

And he also acquiesced, and even supported, Li Guangli to plan this war.

If it weren't for this, the Son of Heaven only needed to send a random envoy to Hexi to supervise and supervise, and Li Guangli would have been pushed back to Juyan long ago.

He doesn't have the space to manipulate those little movements!

Thinking of this, the Son of Heaven also sighed slightly.

He knew that, in fact, he was also responsible for the way things turned out.

Because, the Son of Heaven also hopes in his heart that Li Guangli can show his achievements to slap the faces of those guys who ridicule him for being "just a captain's talent" and "His Majesty pulls out the seedlings to help them grow".

It's not preference, it's selfishness.

After all, Li Guangli has been cultivating for more than ten years.

If you don't make any achievements, if you don't achieve a big victory that shocks the world, you will be replaced.

Isn't it tantamount to proving the slander of those gossip parties?

Isn't he telling the people of the world that he, the Son of Heaven, has also lost his eyes?

This is absolutely unacceptable!

Therefore, he connived at Li Guangli, the generals of the Second Division, and the prime minister.

Thinking of this, the Son of Heaven turned back and looked at Zhang Yue: "I listened to General Yingyang's words today, and I was also touched......

"Fighting on two fronts, there may indeed be problems......"

It was something he knew from the beginning.

This is the intuition of strategists.

It is the experience of decades of governing career!

Back then, when the Han family was in its heyday, it was also necessary to solve the rebellion of Wei Manchu Korea, South Vietnam, Minyue and Southwest Yi in order.

Never have an appetite to settle all at once.

But......

The Son of Heaven looked at Zhang Yue with a smile and said, "The reason why I agreed is because there is a general!" ”

"If there is an urgency, the general will go into battle, and I can rest easy!"

"Moreover, the Hexi army, there are more than ten thousand, even if there is a small setback, it will not hurt!"

This matter, in the eyes of His Majesty, is completely fine.

Li Guangli performed well and won a big victory, so everyone was naturally happy.

Even if he gets out of the basket, isn't there someone in Chang'an who can rush over to wipe his buttocks?

Zhang Yue listened, but was dumbfounded.

Such a major military event involves the safety and death of countless people, how can it be child's play?

But think about it carefully, hasn't this big man always been an old naughty boy?

He is willful and stubborn, open-minded and intelligent, selfish and self-interested, but at the same time affectionate and petty bourgeois.

He is a polyhedron of contradictions.

It is impossible to see through and be incomprehensible.

He is like this in the history books, and he is like this in reality.

He can be angry for the sake of a sycophant of the Huns, and Longyan Dayue, or for a petty official on the border who was killed, and dispatch a large army, regardless of the Huns, advance by sea and land, and destroy and defend Korea.

He can write poems such as 'The flute drum is singing and singing, and the joy is very sad and ......', but he can turn his head and give the death of the prince's biological mother for the sake of the country.

With this majesty's temperament, if in the future life, he must be the kind of player who goes to the wind and waves casually, and fights carefully against the wind.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yue sighed.

But there is no way, who calls this majesty his own boss?

………………………………

At the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, countless craftsmen from the Western Regions were 'invited' here by the Huns.

Mostly, they are carpenters.

As soon as they arrived, they were gathered and then under the command of some 'Qin people', they began to cut wood and chisel.

After several days of endless work, and with their efforts, the huge, clumsy wooden instruments gradually took shape.

This is very simple and very primitive trebuchet.

But......

Every Xiongnu nobleman looked at these instruments with a pilgrim-like look.

Because......

They have already experimented with a 'gun carriage' that can throw a piece of rough stone weighing more than ten catties onto a mountain several zhang high hundreds of paces away.

And it's very powerful!

Seeing these 'gun carriages' being slowly manufactured, the sage's expression became extremely excited.

"By tomorrow, these gun trucks will basically be ready for use!" He said excitedly: "From now on, the fortified fortress of the Han Dynasty is no longer an obstacle of my Great Huns!" ”

In the past, the Huns were basically not good at attacking fortifications.

When encountering the fortress of the Han Dynasty, it can only rely on the stupid method of ant attachment, digging the root of the wall, and throwing hook and claw to attack.

And the defense of the Han Dynasty is very strong, and the firepower is sufficient, if you want to capture it, you have to take your life to fill it!

Not to mention, the Fan Lady City established by the Han people in the hinterland of Mobei has given the Huns a headache for more than ten years.

Every time, the Xiongnu could occupy the city of Lady Fan, basically relying not on the siege of the army, but on the rapid change of the climate in Mobei, and there was a severe drought or extremely cold weather.

The Han people couldn't stay on their own and took the initiative to give up.

And in the second year, when the conditions improved, these Han people fought back to the fortress under the cover of cavalry.

Even if the Huns were destroyed, it didn't matter, they could basically rebuild the city walls and fortresses in just one month.

A city, back and forth like this, disgusted the Huns for more than ten years.

Others, such as Guanglusai, Surrender City, and Luntai City, are even more disgusting and uncomfortable.

But now......

The Huns finally have a reliable means of attacking fortifications!

Finally, he has the ability to shake the enemy's fortified city!

This is a moment in history and a breakthrough!

In the eyes of the sages, this is even the hope of the Huns!

Because......

With them, even if they still can't win against the Han people in the future, the Huns also have the means to bully others.

For example, Nadawan......

In the past, Dawan relied on the fortress of Jiancheng, and if he didn't bird the Huns, the Huns couldn't do anything about them.

But now......

Hehe, there's another place to fight the autumn wind and suck blood!

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
