Straight man of steel

Chapter 366 Kou Ke Goes
"Tai Xue Ling Zhang Yuan, how did you get this map?"

Still a little worried, Liu Che turned to Zhang Yuan and asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, since the First World War in Mayi, I have entrusted some merchants from the frontier to promise great profits.

The map of this desert was drawn by them by asking herders or by measuring it themselves.

The territory of the Great Han Dynasty was drawn by some servants of the minister's family after years of searching for mountains and rivers.

In the part of the desert, the minister also sent people to check and test it himself, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Moreover, I also found Yiqu people to mix with the Xiongnu tribe, and let the Xiongnu tribe compare it. The accuracy of this picture is extremely high. "

"Good! Good! Good!"

Liu Che stood up and clapped.

Zhang Yuan also smiled confidently. Just relying on this map, he will be able to establish himself in the big man for the next 20 years.

"Tai Xue ordered Fang to be a pillar of my man, with this picture in mind, some of the plans in my heart can be implemented.

However, I would also like to ask, if you have any thoughts on this matter, please feel free to resort to it. "

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I made a promise to Your Majesty a few days ago that the Taixue will not waste a year of time in vain.

This map is the key. A map alone cannot help our Han army win an overwhelming victory. We also need some special talents.

These talents can be trained by the Imperial Academy. In as little as half a year and as long as one year, I can train up to 50 military commanders for Your Majesty. "

"No!"

One suddenly shouted loudly.

Zhang Yuan turned his head to take a look and found that it was Li Guang.

Ma De Zhang Yuan is really dumb now and can't tell the pain of eating Coptis chinensis. In the final analysis, if the plan can be successful, it is not others who will get the most help, but Li Guang.

It was his Longxi Li family, and Li Guangli's family. In the final analysis, all the gang members were surnamed Li.

The Li family has been famous for thousands of years, which may be caused by the large number of people surnamed Li, but when Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty ruled, this group of people surnamed Li was the most unlucky.

Was it because Liu Che didn't completely let them go and let them fight?Or are they tied up?
No, in the final analysis, this group of people is unlucky.

Take Li Guang as an example, even if he doesn't have handsome talents, he still has general talents.

It doesn't matter if you bring the elite of the big Han with the elite of the Huns, but he will either get lost or encounter an enemy army of the Huns that is several times his own.

Once you have a map, you can send out scouts to investigate first.

The reason why very few scouts were sent out to fight against the Xiongnu earlier was because the generals of the Han Dynasty did not dare to send the scouts too far, otherwise they would disappear. Although their scouts have strong detection capabilities, they may not be able to find the location of the army .

The steppe was like a labyrinth to them.

"Oh? If General Li has any objections, feel free to tell me."

Liu Che still respects Li Guang very much.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I didn't intend to hinder the matter of Taixue.

The Taixue internally teaches students to have nothing to do with the ministers, but what does the Taixue Order directly say that it wants to train military Sima for the great man?
Is this to intervene in the military and political lines of the big man?Tai Xueling's hand was too long.

Military affairs should not be handed over to Taixue Ling.

As for this map, as long as someone is sent to copy it and distribute it to each battalion, someone will naturally study it. "

"Tai Xue Ling, I think General Li's words are reasonable.

However, if you think there are any problems, you can ask them. "

Zhang Yuan gave Li Guang a blank look on the spot, and the mockery on his face couldn't be suppressed at all.

However, apart from Li Guang feeling a little uncomfortable, the others didn't express anything. Just now Zhang Yuan could sneer at Liu Che, but Bai Liguang's glance was nothing.

"I feel that General Li's short-sightedness must not affect His Majesty, and affect the life and death of hundreds of thousands of Han troops!"

Zhang Yuan almost said that Liu Che would be short-sighted as long as he supported Li Guang.

Before Liu Che got angry, Zhang Yuan immediately continued.

"Your Majesty, think about it, how useful is the map to the people in the army?

The grasslands are desolate, and all places are the same.

The minister didn't dare to say goodbye, and General Li, who was very experienced, took this picture to the grassland with a dazed expression on his face.

The ministers present here are all the pillars of my great man, but when you wait on the grassland, you will be surrounded by endless green plains. Can you tell where you are?

If everyone can't tell the difference, this map is undoubtedly waste paper.

If I only gave this piece of waste paper to His Majesty, it would have no other use than providing some unnecessary confidence to the Han soldiers.

There are people in the court who are familiar with the grassland, there are scholars in the Taixue who know the stars in the sky, and there are veterans in the army who understand the essence of investigation.

The three are combined into one to teach students to quickly master the skills of positioning, so that they can grasp the movement of the enemy.

The big man can be invincible! "

After all, several people from Taixue finally played a big role.

Before Zhang Yuan came, he had also thought about how to position himself.

The ancients had wisdom in this regard.

According to the astronomical positioning, it is a pioneering work of the Chinese nation.

When the West was still trying to communicate with the aliens, the Huaxia people thought about how to use the stars in the sky to correspond to themselves on the ground.

Because of the difference in latitude and longitude, the positions of the stars seen in one place are also different.

This is certain. Although there are changes every year, it is easy to confirm this change after knowing the law.

Zhang Yuan only needs to insinuate something to the lecturer in Taixue who teaches astrology and calendar, and he can quickly find a way to use astrology to locate.

"Is what Taixue ordered you to say true?"

"Your Majesty can call Sima, the Taishi Ling, to have a discussion, I don't need to lie about this matter.

It is not uncommon for the heavenly officials to be able to locate the celestial phenomena in one fell swoop when there is no position to be distinguished on the ground.

However, the number of heavenly officials in the big man is insufficient, and they are all old, so they can only retrain a group of students who only need to learn astrology positioning. "

It may seem absurd to say it, but as long as there is Sinan and the positions of the brightest stars in the sky, it is not difficult to determine the location of the big man.

Although the accuracy is not high, it is easy to locate on the map as long as you have enough experience and know how many miles the army travels every day and in what direction.

"I think what Tai Xueling said is right."

Li Guang was taken aback for a moment, it must have happened too quickly.

Your Majesty, didn't you still support the old minister just now, why did you turn your head and say a few words to Tai Xueling, and your mind changed.

"Since Your Majesty thinks it's good, then I will ask Luo Xiahong in the Taixue to offer this course after I go back."

"Who is Luo Xia Hong? I have never heard of this person's name."

"This person is a celestial official whom I met in Bashu who studies astronomical phenomena. He is a rare talent who knows calendar and arithmetic."

These days, anyone who studies astrology is collectively referred to as a heavenly official, regardless of whether they have an official position or not, which is the same as their professional title.

"Yes, I agree.

Do you have any other suggestions? "

Liu Che didn't give Li Guang a chance to continue arguing with Zhang Yuan, so he immediately made a decision.

"Your Majesty thinks that His Majesty can prepare his troops now and be ready to deal a painful blow to the Xiongnu at any time.

Over the years, the Huns have recuperated and are ready to move.

The cattle and sheep raised alone cannot support the development of the Huns. The Huns are a nation of predators by nature.

The minister believes that His Majesty must not treat this ethnic group with kindness, and we must attack quickly before the Huns can't help looting the big man. "

"You mean you want me to start preparing now?"

"Yes, is there anything else you need, Your Majesty?

The treasury of the Han Dynasty is sufficient, and the grain in the granaries in various places has been piled up and cannot be put down.

The ordnance is enough to equip an army of 50 people, and there are already [-] war horses.

The soldiers of the Han Dynasty who have not fought for a long time need a shocking battle to prove their worth to His Majesty! "

"Then Tai Xueling is willing to fight the Huns?"

Liu Che didn't rush to agree to Zhang Yuan, instead he smiled playfully and asked Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan fainted all of a sudden, Ma De, I just suggested but didn't say that I would go to the grassland to fight the Huns.

But more than 100 people in the hall were staring at Zhang Yuan, if they don't agree now, someone will criticize Zhang Yuan soon.

No matter what you say, you dare not go by yourself, and you still want to fool Liu Che and let others go to fight the Huns.

"Well, if His Majesty gives me a chance, I will immediately put on my military uniform, sharpen my weapon, and wait to drink the blood of the Huns!"

"Hey, that's all.

Taixueling still has a greater effect staying in Chang'an City.

The matter of the battle is left to the servants, and you brothers can make the big man prosperous. "

The excitement on Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing's faces couldn't be concealed at all, Zhang Yuan took the risk to invite Wei Qing in for what reason, just thinking that the military power could not be left alone.

No matter what the situation is, the greatest credit must go to Wei Qing.

And if the big man wants to win, Wei Qing has to be in charge of the army.

"From now on, the imperial servant Wei Qing will be promoted to the former general, commanding one hundred thousand soldiers of the Han Dynasty, and enjoy the right to open the mansion.

Next year, he will lead the army to go out and bring the great man Tianwei to sweep across Monan! "

Wei Qing was Liu Che's first official general. Earlier, Li Guang and the others were all miscellaneous generals.

Generals and the like do not have the power to set up a government to manage affairs.

Now only the prime minister can open a mansion, and so can the princes.

But for generals who want to open a mansion, only the front, back, left, and right generals, generals of Wei, generals of chariots, generals of hussars, and generals who can command both military and political powers.

The general bowed, and there was a direct declaration of one thing.

Since then, the big man has entered the war work, not the external expansion like the current one, but the internal development is still going on.

The general has the power to use all the resources of the whole country for war.

What does this mean?
This is actually another form of military government.

But in general, let alone the generals, these other generals, including the generals, are not permanent.

Giving a title to a general means handing over military power to that general.

The emperors of the Han Dynasty were extremely insecure, they would not do this.

"Chen Weiqing thanks Your Majesty!"

Wei Qing knelt down and kowtowed to Liu Che.

It's not necessarily so, but because this former general will also be worshiped by Liu Che when the time comes.

Worshiping in front of the army will be able to show a king's trust in the army and the general.

At that time, Liu Che will also bow to Wei Qing, and it is wise for Wei Qing to kowtow directly now.

Regardless of the form or not, an emperor would definitely feel uncomfortable saluting to his courtiers, and now Wei Qing just wanted to make up for it.

"The former general doesn't have to be like this, don't let me live up to my trust in you.

After you go back, you can open a mansion in Dinghu Yanshou Palace, which is the former general's camp. "

There are not many mansions in Chang'an City, and there are even no palaces that can be used to open a mansion.

Jianzhang Palace and the palaces in Chang'an City cannot be used by Wei Qing, and the now abandoned Dinghu Yanshou Palace has become a better choice.

"The minister obeys the order!"

It didn't take too long from Zhang Yuan's donation of the map to Wei Qing's appointment as a former general. Liu Che had already made his decision before those who wanted to oppose him were even born.

But now that the imperial censor and the prime minister are not present in the main hall, it seems that no one can refute Liu Che's insistence on going his own way.

After speaking, Liu Che returned to his seat, sat down and said to all the ministers in the hall.

"In this expedition, I decided to attack across the board. I don't care about the gains and losses of one army and one soldier. In the past 70 years, our Han Dynasty has repeatedly defeated the Xiongnu.

As a result, morale was sluggish and national prestige was lost.

This situation must be completely reversed from now on!
In this battle, I want to clearly tell the world and the Huns that from now on, the offense and defense will change shape!

Kou can go, so can I! "

Zhang Yuan's eyes were shining brightly, staring at Liu Che.

I have seen what self-confidence is from this emperor. When Zhang Yuan is confident, he can only reflect his own self-confidence.

And the self-confidence exuded from Liu Che is the self-confidence of a nation.

Liu Che who said these words exuded endless brilliance.

"Military success or failure is important, but it is even more important to show the court's attitude to the world!

I don't want you to be intimidated, Tai Xueling is right, the big man doesn't need to prepare right now, the treasury has everything he needs!
As for the words of all of you who cannot object now, fully support this war.

Put into the fierce battle first, and then go to see the outcome! "

Liu Che spoke very domineeringly, without giving anyone a chance to refute, he got up and left after speaking!
"Your Majesty is wise!"

It seems that other than this sentence, the ministers have nothing to say.

"Congratulations to the former general, and congratulations to the Tai Xueling.

If this battle is won a year later, I am afraid that the big man will have two more princes. "

As soon as Liu Che left, Cao Shi, Marquis of Pingyang, came up to congratulate him.

Zhang Yuan bowed deeply to Cao Shi, Marquis of Pingyang. He had just been helped by Marquis of Pingyang, otherwise Zhang Yuan would have been tricked.

"Pingyanghou was joking, maybe there will be time to count on Pingyanghou in the future."

"The two of you take care of my family Cao Xiang a lot on weekdays, and this Marquis happens to be in Chang'an today, so it's just a little bit of effort, it's nothing."

Wei Qing smiled at Pingyang Hou, he was quite reserved.

After all, this person is Wei Qing's previous master, but the relationship in the future is more complicated.

"After I go back, I will follow what Pingyang Hou said, and make offerings to Zhenyue Shangfang."

"It's really great that Tai Xueling can listen to what this Marquis said."
