Chapter Twenty-Four: A Plan to Retreat from the Enemy

A sedan chair was hurriedly carried out of Changle Palace, and the queen mother on the sedan chair looked worried.

Liu She, Zhou Yafu, and Dou Ying took Jiuqing to stand on both sides to give the first mother a salute.

"Who impeached King Liang and made His Majesty angry like this."

The Queen Mother said kindly. The courtiers were all shocked, and His Majesty was obviously invaded by the Huns. Why is it said that he was impeached by Liang Wangqi, it seems that this reckless servant poked the queen mother's lung tube. deserves to be unlucky, King Liang dares to impeach, it's really dead.

Li Qing had to get out of the crowd with a hard head, bowed his head and bowed his chest to the Queen Mother, and his head was pressed very low and very respectful.

"You can say very well that some grandiose words actually made His Majesty angry like that. Come on, since he has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, let him be locked up with the wild boar. See if the boar's teeth are hard, or if his teeth are hard. ”

"No"

Several guards got the orders of the Queen Mother, and pounced like tigers and wolves. Dragged Li Qing to the beast garden behind him like a chicken.

"The Queen Mother spares her life, the Queen Mother. Da Honglu save me, Da Honglu save me. ”

Li Qing struggled desperately, but the guards had big shoulders and waist round, and he, a weak scholar, did not have the slightest ability to resist. He was dragged by the guards towards the Garden of Beasts, leaving only terrible roars and howls.

"Da Honglu, what else is there for you here?"

The Queen Mother's face is still kind and kind, but now no one dares to think about kindness when they see this face. If you anger the old woman, it is not fun to be thrown to talk to the boar.

"Oh. The old minister only promoted him because of Concubine Li's request. I didn't expect this person to be such a foolish ghost, and the old minister was negligent for a while and asked the queen mother for forgiveness. ”

Liu Hui couldn't wait to slap his mouth, why did he tell Concubine Li about it in a hurry.

"Concubine Li, hum. They don't have a good thing in the Li family, and they will deal with her when they see Her Majesty. ”

Dou Ying secretly said that if Concubine Li was abolished, then Liu Rong's position would not be stable. My mind kept turning and turning, thinking about how to solve it.

The Queen Mother walked into the Xuan Room with the support of Aunt Ying, and the imperial doctor in the side hall was nervously consulting. After waiting for a long time, the imperial doctor came out of the side hall.

"See the Queen Mother."

"How's it going?"

The Queen Mother said eagerly.

"Empress Dowager, Your Majesty is physically tired. At the same time, he was angry and angry. That's why I vomited blood. After the emergency treatment of the ministers, there is no major problem. But. If His Majesty's body wants to improve, I'm afraid I have to go to Lishan Tangquan Palace to recuperate. The hot spring there is helpful to His Majesty's body, and may be able to alleviate His Majesty's condition. ”

"Oh yes."

The Queen Mother nodded, and sure enough, she was a veteran who had gone through the ups and downs from the Lu Rebellion. Hearing that Liu Qi was fine, he immediately calmed down.

"Prime Minister, Captain. The head of your Minister of Civil and Military Affairs. State affairs cannot be abolished for a single day. Gather civil and military officials. Stop bathing immediately. 陛xià went to the soup spring to recuperate. The affairs of the state will be left to you. In the Han Dynasty, anyone who uses more than 200 soldiers must be approved by the Tai Lieutenant.

Zhou Yafu, your father Zhou Bo has made great contributions to the Han family. He is a man of old respect. Now it's up to you. Let's see if you, the San Lang of the Zhou family, have a legacy of your father. ”

"No, the Queen Mother is relieved. Zhou Yafu will live up to the trust of the Queen Mother. ”

Zhou Yafu gave a deep salute, and entrusted the military power to himself at such a moment. This represents the trust of the royal family, and it also represents the power in the hands.

"The guards that Luan Jia moved to Tangquan Palace are in charge of the Imperial Captain's Office, and you are all vigilant that state affairs must not be wasted."

"No"

Dou Ying secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the Queen Mother attaches great importance to state affairs, and has no plans to move Concubine Li for the time being. This Liu Hui is really not enough to succeed and more than to lose, what is this fire head doing to mention Concubine Li.

Yun Xiao received the report from Chang'an, and he was also frightened. actually made Liu Qiqi sick, how could it be. Liu Qi couldn't wait to turn his brother into a quail, why did he suddenly care about King Liang.

It wasn't until the people from the Cangjingkong faction reported that Yun Xiao knew that it was actually because of the Xiongnu knocking.

If it weren't for the death of King Jiangdu and Liu Qi's serious illness, I am afraid that I would have to go on an expedition again. A fight with the Huns was something Yun Xiao had always looked forward to, and he didn't think that he would lose at the hands of the Huns more than 2,000 years ago.

It's a pity that I can't go up at this time. Otherwise, not only would it not be possible to solve the Xiongnu rebellion. You may also be able to put yourself in it. Yun Xiao kept scanning the map, his hands constantly gesturing. At the same time, he kept counting the scale on the straw paper.

"What for? Want to go out to attack the Huns again? ”

Wei Juan walked in with his hands behind his back, this guy must run to the Yun family every time it is time to eat. The dishes are cooked, and you can know what the Yun family is doing today when you smell it. Seeing Yun Xiao gesture straight to the map, he sat on the opposite side of Yun Xiao.

"Do I dare to move? I'd love to see it, but if I do it, I'll be sprayed into a sieve right away. His Majesty is not there, these boys colluded with Liu She Zhou Yafu to hack Lao Tzu. Lao Tzu didn't have a rut. I can only endure it. ”

"Then what are you looking at the map?"

Wei Juan was a little puzzled, since he couldn't move, he was okay to look at the map. He thinks that even training the army is better than looking at a map. Now that's what he does, and the feather forest on the Yunjia Zhuangzi has been practiced by him for a day. It's not been a good year, and the feather forests miss the zombie-faced Zhidu Lord all day long.

"I don't send troops, and I can't watch the Huns run rampant in the clouds."

"What are you going to do?"

Wei Juan was intrigued by Yun Xiao.

"Look here. The Yellow River is rich in nine songs, and the Hetao area is the most abundant place for aquatic plants under the rule of the Xiongnu. It is also the best pasture for grazing, and it used to be the territory of Zuo Daduwei. After I killed him, it became the territory of King Zuoxian. This time, it was this Zuoxian King who sent troops to Yunzhong Daijun.

If our army starts from Mayi, it will go north of Shuofang and begin to build the city. King Zuo Xian must not be able to sit still, which is equivalent to wedged a nail in his territory. If he wanted other Xiongnu nobles to help, he would not lose his territory. Therefore, he can only return to the army, and if we ambush him on the way back......"

The clouds kept charting on the map.

"Build the city!" Wei Juan was taken aback, and looked at Yun Xiao with a look of disdain, "That's not a day or two of hard work, when your city is built, the entire Yunzhong Daijun will already let people rob the sky." ”

"Have you forgotten that my little brother I built a military village in Huainan in more than ten days?"

"Well, this not only does we have an additional base in the Hetao. It can also solve the siege of Daijun in the clouds. Wei Juan was very excited, and he couldn't wait to ask for an order to quell the chaos now.

"No, no, no, building a city with my simple method of building a city will not last. can only hold on for a while, and the Huns are trapped to death. So, we can only after the Huns return to the division. Evacuate as quickly as possible, or risk total annihilation. ”

"What's the point of that, the Huns won't run back to Yunzhong Daijun when they see you withdraw?"

"No, it will take more than a month to come and go. It was almost March, and the herders were about to start grazing. Therefore, they will not turn back to Yunzhong and Daijun can only stay in the Hetao. ”

"It's a good strategy to encircle Wei and save Zhao, so that even if it can't completely relieve the border trouble, it can at least alleviate it for a while. When do you go to the sparse, I guess Zhou Yafu will agree to your performance. Because he is a purely military man, the idea of a military man in his head is not that of a politician. ”

"No, no, no, you can only do it. My recitals are so dazzling that many people are staring at them. I heard that you have a good relationship with Zhou Yafu, so I will write you a simple method of building a city. You go to Chang'an to visit Zhou Yafu and give it to him in your private name. As for what he's going to do, you don't have to worry about it.

We can only do so much for Yunzhong and Daijun, sooner or later I will lead troops to flatten these guys. ”

As soon as he remembered the atrocities of the Huns in the history books of later generations, Yun Xiao gritted his teeth.

"yes, but you're only dormant right now. There is no way, you lose the Sacred Heart. His Majesty will no longer hand over the military power to you, that is, you have just made a great contribution, and you have cleverly climbed to the Queen Mother and Princess Guantao. If it had been a different person, but he had just folded the king of Jiangdu, he would have been wiped out a long time ago. ”

Yun Xiao was a little gloomy, not knowing if it was right for him to kill that Jiangdu King, and if he gave himself another chance, he would do it.

Wei Juan is a sincere person, and he rode back to Chang'an on the same day. After meeting Zhou Yafu, he handed Zhou Yafu the idea of Yunxiao and the simple method of building the city.

Zhou Yafu was overjoyed, and his eyes lit up as he looked at the simple method of building the city. As a soldier, he naturally knows the meaning of this method. In the case of nothing, as long as you bring enough timber, you can build a military fortress on the grassland in a few days. This is a rare treasure for the Han army, which is dominated by infantry.

Comparing his rudimentary map, he compared the places marked by Yunxiao one by one.

Yun Xiao was very convinced of the battle plan he made, and even estimated the speed at which the Huns' cavalry would march every day. The time of the battle was accurate to the day, which made Zhou Yafu very surprised. If you can plan the battle accurately within ten days, you will be a good general. In many cases, it is necessary to rely on the direct command of the commander on the spot to defeat the enemy, so the requirements for generals in this era are particularly high.

Zhou Yafu did not delay, and immediately sent an urgent order to Li Guang for eight hundred miles. Along with it were Yun Xiao's battle plan and a simple method of building the city.

In mid-January, Li Guang led his troops out of Mayi to build a city behind Shuofang.

What made Li Guang very unhappy was that the task of ambush was handed over to Gongsun He.

At the beginning of February, King Zuo Xian learned that a city had suddenly appeared on the grassland. Taken aback, he hurriedly gathered his troops and returned to the loop. As a result, Gongsun He, who was ambushed, chose a cheap one and lost many captured slaves, cattle and horses. As a result, when he returned to the grassland, he found only an abandoned earthen city.
