Destiny Only Han

Back to the central palace.

When the night fell on the earth, except for the howling of wine mengzi in the brightly lit hall, and the constant comings and goings of soldiers patrolling the night, everything seemed quiet and desolate.

Qiangong Xiyuan, this is the residence of the ministers who accompanied Liu Bang. In the southeast corner near the main hall, Han Xin crept into the darkness, opened the door furtively, and sneaked in quietly.

In the room, the candles were flickering, and the silence was extremely quiet.

Under the lamp, a woman with good facial features was sitting on a female seat, suddenly frightened, she hurriedly raised her head, and when she saw the appearance of the person coming, she put her palms on her chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

She is Han Xin's wife, the South Vietnamese woman who Liu Ying recognized as her god-sister and changed her name to Liu Lanzhi.

So she looked at Han Xin who was like a thief, and said with a bit of anger: "Didn't my beloved go to the banquet? Why did you come back alone before the banquet was over?"

Han Xin didn't answer, but just looked out of the room, quickly closed the door, put the latch on, and blew out the candles.

So, Liu Lanzhi tilted her head, her eyes were full of embarrassment, and she stammered: "Don't... this place is not a home, there are people living on both sides... that's all, I'm going to live with my beloved, but I need to be gentle, don't worry Woke up Sheng'er..."

This time, it was Han Xin who was stunned.

But as a soldier, he didn't change his face when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, so he just gave a 'shh', and tiptoed back to the door, looking out from the crack of the door.

Then, he saw a bright black eye...

"what!"

"Ha ha!"

Outside the door, Liu Ying laughed loudly, and immediately knocked on the door like a drum, shouting loudly: "I saw you, you are so rude... Why are you running? Are you still a brother?"

Inside the room, Liu Lanzhi was full of joy: "Sir, could it be that brother is here?"

Han Xin was full of frustration: "Well, I just wanted to avoid him..."

Before Han Xin could finish speaking, Liu Lanzhi ran to the door, pulling on his shoes, opened the door swiftly, and said with a smile, "My brother is here, come in and sit down!"

"I've met my sister." Liu Ying cupped her hands casually, then looked at Han Xin who was hiding in the room and said with a smile to Liu Lanzhi: "Just go in, I have something to do with my brother-in-law... Well, to be honest, It is to let him serve as a councilor in our army."

Then, Liu Lanzhi pushed Han Xin out in a few moments, and at the same time, he did not forget to remind him: "My dear brother is a friend of my younger brother in Chang'an, you should help me, don't always put on airs... Last time, Marquis Wuyang knelt down to welcome you." , you are still sneering at others!"

Han Xin was full of helplessness, but he still followed Liu Ying. He was silent for a long time, and finally sighed, "How can you kill a chicken with a butcher's knife... Besides, I have done too much, and I am not good to you."

"How big is it, bigger than me?" Liu Ying stood up confidently.

Well, he is very proficient in public opinion building. Now in the hearts of many ordinary Han people, the merits of the prince of the Han Dynasty are second only to the emperor of the Han Dynasty. There is Han Xin in the dark archives.

So Han Xin became more and more dejected. After all, a real man should shine in the annals of history, and his contribution is not impossible to be obliterated, but at least mention it...

For example, those reliefs on the Arc de Triomphe, even if you have a back view...

Liu Ying asked with a smile: "You don't want to know how I plan to fight this battle?"

Han Xin was stunned for a moment. When he sneaked away, Liu Ying just shamelessly asked Liu Bang to take the command of the army, and began to look for him all over the world.

Therefore, he was completely unaware of what happened next, but under the itch, he still turned his head angrily: "I don't want to."

Heh... Liu Ying said to herself:
"In this battle, I want to test the combat power of the new army. I want to see what kind of combat power the combination of spears, muskets, cannons, and cavalry can explode...and fight against the nation on the back of the self-proclaimed horse in the wilderness. A battle of all cavalry, think about what a magnificent scene it would be!"

"Since you don't want to go, forget it. I understand that when this person gets old, his thinking will inevitably follow the old-fashioned way. It is indeed the first of its kind to deploy a large number of muskets in the infantry phalanx. It is normal for you to worry that you will not be able to adapt... "

After Liu Ying finished speaking, she turned and left.

One step, two steps, three steps, four steps...

Just when he was about to turn his head, Han Xinman's struggling voice came from behind him: "Okay, I'll just go with you..."

Liu Ying turned her head and put her arms around Han Xin's neck: "This is my brother!"

Han Xin corrected: "Brother!"

Liu Ying shook her head indifferently, and said seriously:
"You didn't participate in the discussion in the palace before. In this battle to resist the Huns and aid Ukraine, the Han army sent a total of 30 troops, claiming to be [-]. They sent troops from Longyou, crossed the Great Wall, and went north along the Huangshui River. Qiang accepted the guidance, and then went north to rescue Wusun country!"

"Jiang Qiang?" Han Xin was a little puzzled. After all, he is a military strategist, he knows the geography of mountains and rivers, and he has never understood the history of the nation.

Liu Ying explained: "Qiang is a general term. The so-called King Wen was born in Dongyi, and Dayu was born in Western Qiang... Well, according to the people of the Shang Dynasty, anyone who lives by herding sheep is a Qiang. ..."

Han Xin nodded slightly. Although he was still a little ignorant, he had no doubts about Liu Ying's business record.

After all, Liu Ying presided over the excavation work in the past two years, and a large number of animal bones and tortoise shells with engraved characters were dug out from Hanoi County. It is said that the place where they were dug up was the merchant's capital of Yin, where Zhang Han and Xiang Yu negotiated peace. !
Although those words are obscure and difficult to understand, after all, they were handed down from Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, and the characters of merchants and Zhou people have a lot of origin. In addition, academic masters like Shusun Tong, Lu Jia, and Shangshan Sihao, who were able to decipher the characters The speed is very fast.

Therefore, Dahan College has added an archaeological school, especially in Guanzhong, from time to time you can see students and teachers wearing short shirts, holding books, and digging with hoes...

Han Xin sometimes thinks that the real reason why Liu Ying dug out the pile of bones is to divert Shangshan Sihao's attention, so that he often skips class due to sick leave...

"Of course, Lu Jia held a different view. He believed that the businessmen at that time centered on the area they ruled, and collectively called all the tribes in the west the Qiang people, so there was the saying Jiang Qiang...Qi Jiang is the origin Out of Jiang Qiang."

Liu Ying continued to recall while recalling: "For this reason, Jiang Qiang has always maintained goodwill with the Central Plains Dynasty. When the Zhou people were strong, they surrendered to Zhou, and when the Qin people were strong, they surrendered to Qin. Now, they naturally obey the orders of the great Han!"

"What we have to be wary of when we dispatch troops this time is actually the Qiang people living on the plateau south of Zhidi Dao. They are the descendants of the 'Wuyi Yuanjian' who resisted the tyranny of Qin in the past. The Qiang language refers to slaves..."

"Well, do you still remember the Di people in Wudu County? A considerable part of them are actually Qiang people, but we have ignored them..."

Han Xin was stunned for a moment, and only one word appeared in his mind, that is, miserable!

He shook his head and asked back: "How dare the divided Qiang people attack the grain road of the Han army?"

"There is no reason to be a thief for a thousand days, so there is no reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days..." Liu Ying sneered, "Have you heard the story of the people of Qi grabbing gold? When greedy for profit, they dared to snatch gold in full view. Qi people have the same origin, so it is not surprising to do anything!"

"Therefore, after I am ready to send out troops, I will gather the leaders of the Qiang people first, and then serve as soldiers. If they are willing to cooperate with our army, I don't mind spending money to hire them to work. If they don't know how to praise them, then the clan will be exterminated!"

"It should be so." Han Xin nodded slightly in agreement.

After all, everyone is very royal at this time, and what they pay attention to is a Rong Di jackal, which cannot be hated; Zhu Xia is intimate, and cannot be abandoned!

That is to say, our Zhu Xia did not regard you Yidi as human beings. This can be seen from the explanation that the word Qiang also has slaves in the oracle bone inscriptions.

Han Xin looked at Liu Ying, and asked again: "You said sending 5 troops, isn't that too much? The Han army can be worth [-] Huns! [-] people, it's too shameful for him!"

Liu Ying shook her head: "These 5 people are not all the new troops drilled in Guanzhong, and I plan to send a large number of soldiers from the Guandong County to join the war!"

"After all, after this battle, the Protectorate of the Western Regions will be built, and immigrants need to be settled there. Moreover, there is a mixed population of Chinese and barbarians. Those guards who have received military training since childhood are needed to control the place!"

What he didn't say is that the word Qiang represents slaves, and now the four northern counties are full of enclosed pastures and farms. Although there are some mechanized farm tools, daily labor still requires a lot of manpower.

This is especially true for grazing cattle and sheep.

After all, milking and shearing are essential in order to obtain maximum benefits, and without the participation of modern machines, these need to be done bit by bit by human hands.

Therefore, in addition to maintaining the smooth flow of the Silk Road, the Han soldiers who immigrated to the Hehuang region had another most important task, which was to go to the plateau in groups and persuade the local Qiang people to work in the pastures in the four northern counties.

And Jiang Qiang who governed Di Dao, and Lao Rong Di from Longxi County, were the guarantee to turn those rebellious Qiang people into docile and obedient little sheep.

Liu Ying said with a smile: "So for this battle, I plan to deploy [-] elite infantry in Guanzhong, all equipped with muskets, and then [-] pikemen from the Kanto counties to form an infantry brigade!"

"As for the cavalry, [-] cavalry from the county and state, [-] cavalry from Rong and Di, and [-] from our young army..."

"So, claiming 30, scares the Huns to death!"

Han Xin covered his face, and immediately asked, "Where are the artillery pieces? Why didn't you mention the number of artillery pieces just now?"

Liu Ying raised her head: "I remember you told my father that the more soldiers you command, the better. We are half-brothers, so as for the artillery, naturally, the more the better!"
