It was already noon the next day when Su Ren returned to Louguan. In the expectation of his family, Su Ren rode his horse leisurely along the main road of the academy and walked in. A well-informed student watched.
Su Ren stared with disbelief on his face. Some guys who didn't know what was going on came up to talk to Su Ren happily.
Su Jian and Su Kang were the two fastest runners. The two boys and a group of younger brothers and sisters gathered around Su Ren like the wind. Su Kang in particular had burst into tears. In his heart, the reason why his father was
The emperor arrested him all because he was naughty. Otherwise, given the relationship between his father and the emperor's uncle, he would never have sent that old scoundrel Liu Jiqing to arrest him.
Holding Su Huier in his arms, holding Su Kang's hand, followed by Su Jian and a group of children, Su Ren walked towards the back of the academy talking and laughing. Just after turning around the academy, he saw Dong Zhongshu, Wen Dang and others. Today Wen Dang didn't even take the car and stayed.
Standing tremblingly on the roadside with a walking stick, when he saw Su Ren really coming back, the old man couldn't help but shed tears.
Su Ren quickly stepped forward and helped Wen Dang himself: "Let the teacher worry, the student has realized his mistake!"
Wen Dang shook his head: "I remember when Zi Heng came all the way from Chengdu to Chang'an to save my old bones. Today, Zi Heng is in trouble and my teacher can't help me. It makes me feel ashamed as a teacher! As long as Zi Heng doesn't blame my teacher for being incompetent."
.”
"Teacher is serious! In the boy's heart, the teacher is like my father. The teacher can't bear to worry about the student. This time he failed to inform the teacher in time. It is the student's fault. How can he blame the teacher."
Han Qing hurriedly stepped forward: "Okay, just come back. Let's go. It's not too late to go home!"
Dong Zhongshu snorted, turned around and walked back. As Su Ren walked, he explained yesterday's events to everyone, naturally hiding the part involving the merchants. Wen Dang was stunned: "So, the imperial court really wants to
Did you use troops against the Huns?"
Su Ren nodded: "It shouldn't be wrong. I'm afraid the imperial edict to mobilize troops will come out in a few days. The students will most likely have to go on an expedition again. I just came back and have to leave now. I feel a little tired."
Wen Dang smiled slightly: "Zi Heng is a great talent. It's a blessing to be able to share the country's worries. But I don't dare to complain. Zi Heng doesn't have to worry about things at home. As long as I'm an old teacher, everything will be fine at home!"
"Teacher, please take care of me!"
After another reunion dinner, Su Ren did not stay in Louguan in the following days, but returned to Chang'an. In order to spend more time with her husband, Lu Yi mentioned that Dong Qian, Leng Yue and the others
They all followed with their children. The affairs of the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce were arranged by Meng Fangtian, and Su Ren had already made it clear that Meng Fangtian's wisdom would not do anything stupid. Even if Meng Fangtian was alive
When you are tired of doing random things, you can't blame others when your head is beheaded.
Ever since Su Ren arrived in Chang'an, there have been no interruptions in the number of guests at home. Wei Qing, Gongsun He, and Gongsun Ao were almost always at the Su family. A few adults and a group of children, based on their memory and the map of the Taiwei Mansion, only made a very small
A large sand table with all the mountains and rivers in the Xiongnu territory marked on it. Originally, this matter was best handled by the people of Gongshujia. Unfortunately, the people of Gongshujia were summoned to the palace by the emperor. They knew what they were doing without asking.
Gongsun He pointed at Haoshuichuan and said: "This is a good place. You see, it is stuck at the throat of Yinshan Mountain. As long as a large army is sent to control this place, Yi Zhixie will not be able to come out of Yinshan Mountain!"
Gongsun Ao shook his head slightly: "No, there is no better water than Heilongkou. The terrain at Heilongkou is not suitable for cavalry combat. The Huns will die as many as they come!"
“Good water and good water!”
"Heilongkou is good!"
…
Gongsun He and Gongsun Ao were arguing over where to set up camp, their faces turned red and their necks were thick. After a while, they started to fight again. Su Ren quickly pulled Wei Qing aside, pointed at the two guys in front of him and said: "There is a dispute.
They are not the commander-in-chief, so what’s the point of getting a result from the argument?”
Wei Qing also smiled: "In my opinion, His Majesty has made a lot of determination this time. I heard that he has ordered the Sichuan Chamber of Commerce to sell out all the war horses in the Qiang region. I have calculated that the price will not be one hundred thousand!"
"One hundred thousand, that's a little less! Over the years, Your Majesty has attached great importance to the cavalry. As far as I know, ever since the war horses from the Qiang region became available, the imperial court has purchased them vigorously every year, and has also built many horse farms in Jingzhou, Jizhou and other places.
It is roughly estimated that the number of war horses that our big men can use to fight is at least 500,000."
"Five hundred thousand horses, so much?"
Su Ren sighed: "Half a million horses is not much! Do you know how many horses the Huns have? Furthermore, this cavalry is different from the infantry. The training of cavalry is very strict and difficult. The Huns have lived on horseback since childhood.
People can eat and urinate on horses, but who of our cavalry can? In my opinion, our cavalry is just infantry on horseback at best. If we really want to meet the Huns cavalry, if they are outnumbered, they will definitely lose!"
"Hiss..." Wei Qing nodded: "What should we do?"
Su Rendao: "Your Majesty may have also seen this, so your Majesty did not put the victory or defeat of this battle on the cavalry, but on the archers! This is the reason why the old general Li Guang is often summoned by your Majesty these days. If nothing else happens,
, General Li is the key to this Han-Hungarian war!"
Wei Qing nodded: "Yes, General Li's magical bow skills are unparalleled in the world. When he was in the north that day, the Huns would not attack the north. Later, when he was transferred to Yuyang, the Huns did not dare to invade Yuyang.
, Wherever General Li goes, the Huns will never dare to approach." Wei Qing sighed again: "It's a pity that General Cheng is old and has been ill recently, otherwise there would be two old generals here, and this battle would not be possible.
The odds of winning are even better!"
Gongsun He suddenly interjected: "Don't worry about old generals. How can we not fight this war without them? We are also generals now. It is our responsibility to lead troops to fight. Don't worry, as long as your Majesty sends this general to go on an expedition, I will
The Huns who the general is about to attack cannot find their way to the north!"
Gongsun Ao also said: "Exactly, the Huns have nothing to fear. They rely on the speed of their horses. As long as they can think of ways to curb the speed of their horses, it is not worth mentioning!"
Wei Qing nodded slightly, stopped talking and lowered his head in thought.
Su Ren glanced at Gongsun He: "Tell me, what kind of drug did you give Xiao Jinzi and the others? If I have to go to your place, will I harm them?"
Gongsun He chuckled: "You can't blame them. Who told you to always protect others like your children and not give them a chance? It's different when you come here. They can do whatever they want. After this war is over, they may also be generals.
Got it!"
Su Ren rolled his eyes: "Hey! I don't understand these boys, but I said the ugly thing before, these people can come back wherever they go. You Gongsun He, don't say that I'm not done with you!"
Gongsun He smiled and said: "Look what you said, how can there be such a guarantee in this battle? Even I, the general, dare not say that he will come back alive, let alone..."
"Why, you dare to let them fight to the death, see if I don't tear down your Gongsun family!"
Gongsun Aodao: "Brother Su, you still don't know what kind of virtue this guy has? When has he ever been in danger? Don't worry, those boys are brothers of Brother Su, and also our brothers. Gongsun He has a sense of proportion!"
Without talking about the affairs of Huo Jin and others, Su Ren turned to Wei Qing and asked: "How are you going to deal with the vast territory of the Huns? In such a big place, even if our Majesty sends all the Han people there, there is still no way to block all the roads. As long as
Yin Zhixie is unwilling to fight us, he can hide anywhere and there is no way to find him."
Wei Qing didn't say anything, lying on the edge of the sand table and staring at the sand table. The sand table in Su Ren's home was not as big as the one in the palace, and it was not as refined as others. In Su Ren's sand table, there were only those mountains and rivers that could be named, and there were many secrets.
I can't find it anywhere. If the sand table wasn't more vivid, it would be better to look at the map. At least it's more accurate than this.
Huo Qubing held the teapot and served tea to several people diligently. Today, this guy was very well-behaved. He neither went out to cause trouble nor was playful. He always stayed by their side and looked at Su Ren from time to time. Su Ren knew that Huo Qubing behaved like this today.
Fortunately, for some reason, Su Ren turned a blind eye to the way Huo Qubing looked at him and just talked to Wei Qing and others.
Wei Qing shook his head: "There is no good way. If the Huns are unwilling to fight decisively, our expedition will not be fully successful. The Huns' cavalry can attack any place at any time along the Great Wall. This is why I have been unwilling to fight with the Huns for so many years."
The reason for the war."
Gongsun Ao nodded: "Yes! Relying on the strength of their cavalry, the Huns are still in Mobei today, will appear in Peiping tomorrow, and will arrive in Beidi the day after tomorrow. It will make our frontier troops exhausted and very troublesome to deal with."
Su Ren looked at Gongsun He, who waved his hand: "Don't look at me, His Majesty will not let me be the head coach, so I don't have to worry about these things, and you two have to think about it. This time His Majesty will come up with such a big plan."
If you can’t defeat the Huns, I don’t need to tell you what will be waiting for you when you come back?”
Wei Qing and Su Ren looked at each other, and Su Ren said: "Is it possible to kill people again? If so, I, the general, won't go!"
Gongsun He sneered: "What a beautiful idea! However, it is not possible to kill people, and it is very possible to be punished. During the Taizu period, King Lu Wan of Yan surrendered to the Xiongnu because he was disadvantaged in fighting the Xiongnu and was worried that the court would blame him. Since then, we Han people
Many people surrendered to the Huns, and I heard that several of Yi Zhixie's generals were Han Chinese."
"It's not surprising. There are many Huns in our Han border counties. As long as they are loyal, they are Han people!" Gongsun Ao said: "I'm afraid these guys have evil intentions. Let's fight to the death in front. If these people sneak attack from behind, it will be a bad thing.
!If Yu Shan surrenders, there will be no less than 100,000 Huns in the Yanmen area, which is the most dangerous place."
"This matter depends on our General Su!" Gongsun He said with a gloating expression: "Who made General Su Yu Shan's friend? Yu Shan clearly wrote it in the letter asking for surrender. If General Su hadn't come in person, he would have been
They will not surrender. Therefore, our General Su is most likely to take the east route. General Li should take the west route. Together with Li Danghu, father and son will work together to block the door for the Huns to escape to the west and completely drive the Huns to the north. Wei Qing
!Only the middle road is left. Leave the Northland, take Shuofang, and go straight to Yinshan Mountain. That is Yi Zhixie’s lair, so the credit will naturally be the greatest."
"I'll go with uncle!" Huo Qubing suddenly interrupted. (To be continued)
