Chapter Ninety-six: No return to the court if victorious
The front hall of Weiyang Palace, early dynasty.
The sky is not all bright, and the courtiers walk in in turn, divided into two columns of Wenwu.
The emperor sits north to the south, and the minister face north with the emperor.
That is, Wenchen is on the left hand side of the emperor, and the general is on the right hand side.
In history, Emperor Hanwu had not yet completed a strong central centralization. Officials were in the dynasty, and they were qualified to be attended. At least San Gong could.
However, the Han Dynasty completed the reform of the dynasty early. All the courtiers needed to stand up and wearing a civil and military service uniformly. Only the emperor sat in the temple.
This change, don't ask, ask the Emperor's change.
At this time, the courtiers first entered the front hall and waited. Wenchen was led by the prime minister Gongsun Hong.
The general is headed by General Wei Qing.
The first figure of Wei Qing, the courtiers of the court, regardless of the martial arts, almost all subconsciously glanced at his direction when entering the hall.
At the age of seventeen, he stood in the second position of the general, the temporary Langzhong order, the head of the Chang'an Wei.
This position is a lot, everyone is well known.
The safety of the belly of Dahan's belly can be said to be in the hands of this teenager.
The taste of many ministers is unspeakable.
On the corridor on the back of the main hall, there was a steady footsteps. Liu Che was wearing a royal robe and came out of the rear.
At the same time, the ministers gave the emperor's first ceremony.
"Have something to play!" Dong Xu sounded a little bit.
Huo Qubing's face was calm, but in fact, the spirit was slightly vibrated, waiting to start watching the performance of the ministers.
The group of courtiers represents the voices of all walks of life, and at the same time, it also represents their respective interest groups.
At the meeting, the ministers voiced that the content involved the entire Han realm, including agriculture, animal husbandry, water conservancy, military, taxation, etc.
"His Majesty, Longxi County has no rain since June, praying to the Chaozhong to sort out the heavenly phenomenon, rainfall is urged."
Every year, the Han Dynasty has a fabric of the Yin and Yang family.
"His Majesty, Nanhai County's investigation of greedy Grandma has been involved in the master's book of the county government, and the evidence is conclusive. Please settle down."
Yu Shifan sent a list: "In addition, Tai Xue has five doctoral players, please order the number of people, open the school, and implement it in each county."
The big farmer order in Jiuqing, that is, Qin Shi followed, the history of the culinary and taxation of the country and taxation of the country is a clear old man, and he also made a channel:
"Recently, salt, iron, and printing have been floating, which is significantly higher than last two months ..."
"Chen also enlisted, the Huaihe River needs to renovate and reinforce the dam, which is affected by the royal water ..."
Wenchen's stream of various matters mentioned all kinds of matters, and when the general will be ranked invisible, there is not enough 'Central Finance' to be distributed, and unknowingly suppress the growth of martial arts.
This is Chaohui, which seems to be playing various things, but in fact, hidden machines, some intentions are quietly expanded.
If the emperor can't do insight, he will also be invisible by these ministers.
During this period, the border is restless, and the ministers know that they are relatively regular at the meeting, restraint.
If it is usually more exciting than it is now, there are not a few methods in secret.
"His Majesty, the current ministries are urgently needed. Previously, there were many reserves in the battle of Xiangbei, which could be returned to the state treasury and made another allocation."
Liu Che avoided it without answering, and turned to Huo Qubing: "I heard that in the morning, he heard that Beiguan met the Huns again last night?"
The news received by Huo Qubing, Liu Che also received a copy long ago.
He asked Huo Qubing, which was a tacit understanding between the monarchs and ministers. Let Huo Qubing speak out and cooperate with his intentions.
"A Huns army of ten thousand people made a surprise attack last night at the junction of Yuyang and Shanggu counties. Beiguan general Yong used a trick to lure them into the empty city and killed them all," Huo Qubing said.
The entire court immediately fell silent, but the ears of the ministers quietly perked up, listening carefully.
"How much is the enemy, how much is our army damaged?"
"The Xiongnu was seduced into the city. Our army ranked the head of the city, defending the front with the shield, the crossbow handle raised the shot, and wiped out the Xiongnu Wanqi, and the leader also killed it on the spot.
Most of the twelve people were injured by stray arrows shooting through the gaps in the shield formation, and at the end of the city's clearing campaign..."
The temple is a quiet first, and the spin is big.
More than 10,000 enemies, less than 400 damage?
This is done overnight by Beiguan?!
"The enemy and me are so different?"
Zhou Ping frowned slightly: "Is this number only counted by the Bei Guan’ s enemy generals, or the union of all departments? Can the champion Hou receive several numbers and summary, can it be combined? "
The contrast between the number of enemies and me, not only Zhou Ping, but also the other Wenchens mostly misunderstood.
"His Majesty, Tingwei, Da Nong order, Shaofu will receive the confirmed war loss figures this morning, which is a joint check in Beiguan."
Each department has officials who are responsible for recording merit in Beiguan. Because they involve expenditures, they are supervised layer by layer.
"Who will command this battle?" Gongsun Hong looked at Huo Qubing with bright eyes.
"The command of the war as the Lieutenant of the Northern Army Zhang Cong."
Huo Qubing did not explain the details, so Liu Che naturally knew, but the officials were greatly surprised that it was Zhang Cigong.
This Northern Army lieutenant accomplished such a remarkable feat overnight!
Liu Che and Huo Qubing mentioned in front of the ministers that the Huns were coming to invade the border again, which was to pave the way for subsequent attacks on the Huns.
Because the border often has to deal with the threat of the Huns, armaments and other items will continue to be left at the border to be prepared.
Wei Qing also understood the reason and smiled secretly.
Some people in later generations said that Liu Che was too extravagant in military force and exhausted the country's power. It was a waste of time and the emperor should treat him as ordinary.
In fact, Han Dynasty was very wealthy at that time, which was equivalent to a piece of fat meat. It was definitely coveted by others. Being fat but having no ability to protect oneself was the tragedy of fat meat, which could only wait to be eaten.
Assuming that the emperor does not attack the Huns, they will not attack you?
The Xiongnu will only take advantage of it.
So we have to fight, and since we have to fight, it is better to fight to death and destroy the Huns.
To fight against the Xiongnu and even the barbarians, it is better to take the initiative than to fight passively.

Of course, it is certain that Liu Che is warlike, but his historical status has long been determined.
After the court meeting ended, the ministers were still discussing.
There is no doubt that the battle of Beiguan is the core of today's court meeting, and all kinds of court discussions by civil servants have been suppressed.
After the court meeting, Liu Che summoned Huo Qubing, Wei Qing, and Acting Prime Minister Li Cai to the study to discuss matters.
"In the battle last night, the champion prepared his troops and wiped out all the enemies. I am very relieved." Liu Che said after sitting down in the study.
When Li Cai first heard about the results of the battle at the court meeting, he felt that there must be something hidden in it.
Zhang Cigong was a brave general, but he did not have the ability to lure the Huns into the city and put himself in a desperate situation.
Li Cai glanced at Huo Qubing, and his thoughts were up and down, but what he thought of was that his brother was in military affairs... He was far less talented than this son!
"Shi Jian's father Shi Yong died. He was heartbroken over his father's death and was no longer fit to be in charge of the Chang'an Guards.
Qu Bing, you have made many meritorious deeds recently, I am going to issue an edict today, ordering you to take over the position of Lang Zhongling."
"I don't dare to occupy such a high position. Your Majesty might as well choose General Li Guang to serve. He has been in the army for many years and can serve the public."
After the historical doctor Shi Jian, the next doctor was Li Guang.
The next person to be appointed is Li Guang’s son Li Gan.
At present, due to Huo Qubing's performance and the secret author's fueling, undercurrents are surging in Chang'an. A butterfly effect has obviously occurred on this matter, blowing the position of Lang Zhongling away from Li Guang.
Huo Qubing doesn’t want to be a doctor, but he has his own considerations.
Lang Zhongling needs to sit in Chang'an and protect the emperor.
Once you become the Commander-in-Chief, you can no longer lead troops on raids or train the troops at will as in the past. You have to sit in court every day.
This is one of them. Another hidden danger is if he becomes a doctor and his uncle Wei Qing is a general.
The Han's external military power and internal responsibility of protecting Chang'an will be taken over by their two nephews.
Appointing Li Guang as Lang Zhongling can balance the strength of the army. In the long run, it will be better for Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.
So Huo Qubing wanted to refuse, but he was sincere.
Liu Chedao: "The position of Lang Zhongling is related to the inside and outside of Chang'an. The safety of the clan is in danger. You should take charge of it for a while."
The implication is that there is currently a writer in the dark, the enemy is in the dark and we are in the open, and the emperor is worried about others.
Huo Qubing thought that he could only resign after finding out the author.
"I will appoint Li Gan as your deputy. If there is a war, Li Gan will stay in Chang'an and you can still go to war."
By the time Huo Qubing left the study, it was almost noon.
He returned to the command hall of the Chang'an Guards and began to deal with the day's affairs.
In the afternoon, a small sword made of bamboo suddenly flew out of the window, and the power was flowing.
This is actually a bamboo slip, but it was engraved with magical incantations and was pushed over by someone through the air.
Huo Qubing blinked and reached out to take it.
Princess Liu Qing has recently fallen in love with sending letters via letters, and she often uses the method of sending letters to communicate about things.
Huo Qubing took the flying bamboo slip in his hand and looked at the content written on it.
