Chapter 25: First appearance, conferred as Marquis in the first battle!

Qin Dynasty.

Meng Tian's eyes lit up: "His sister entered the palace, and he followed suit. This luck is okay."

Meng Yi nodded: "But that Princess Guantao wanted to kill him, it was dangerous enough. If he hadn't been saved, he might have died."

Wang Jian pondered: "Emperor Wu was furious when he found out, promoted him exceptionally... This shows that this emperor values him very much."

Li Si analyzed: "Wei Qing was able to enter the official career because of his sister."

"But being able to go on in the official career depends on Emperor Wu's trust. This kind of encounter between monarch and minister is rare."

Ying Zheng also agreed with this point of view and let them continue to watch the Sky Screen.

Han Dynasty, Weiyang Palace.

Wei Zifu looked at the Sky Screen, tears streaming down her face.

She remembered that day.

When she entered the palace, her brother sent her off, silent all the way.

She didn't know that so many things would happen later—Princess Guantao wanted to kill him, Gongsun Ao saved him, Emperor Wu was furious, promoted him exceptionally...

She turned to look at Wei Qing and found that her brother was also looking at her.

The two looked at each other, and both saw tears in each other's eyes.

Liu Che stood aside and suddenly laughed:

"At that time, I knew this kid was unusual. Otherwise, why would I accompany him every day?"

Wei Qing lowered his head, his voice a little hoarse,

"Your Majesty's grace is heavy, I will keep it in my heart."

Liu Che patted his shoulder,

"Alright, don't be sentimental, keep watching."

Huo Qubing shouted from the side,

"Uncle, you almost died? Who wanted to kill you? I'll go chop him for you!"

Wei Qing stared at him: "That was in the past, don't talk nonsense."

Huo Qubing curled his lips, but his eyes were still fixed on the Sky Screen.

Tang Dynasty, Taiji Hall.

Cheng Yaojin scratched his head,

"This Wei Qing's sister was favored by the emperor, and he followed suit. If his sister hadn't been favored, wouldn't he have been a riding slave for the rest of his life?"

Li Jing also agreed with this sentence,

"General Cheng is right. Opportunity is sometimes more important than talent."

Fang Xuanling sighed: "But with opportunity, you still need talent. Otherwise, it's just mud that can't support the wall. Wei Qing was able to seize the opportunity because he had real ability."

Li Shimin laughed: "Xuanling is right. Opportunity is for those who are prepared. Although Wei Qing was a riding slave, he must have been preparing all the time, waiting for the opportunity."

Ming Dynasty, Hongwu plane.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the Sky Screen, thoughtful.

"Sister entered the palace, brother followed suit..."

He turned to look at Empress Ma,

"Sister, you say, if I had a sister, would it be like this?"

Empress Ma smiled: "Your Majesty, you have me, what else do you need a sister for?"

Zhu Yuanzhang also laughed: "Right, having you is enough."

Zhu Biao said softly from the side: "Father, I think Wei Qing was able to rise, not just because of his sister. The key is that he was striving for himself. Otherwise, the emperor would not have promoted him."

Zhu Yuanzhang agreed with what Zhu Biao said,

"Biao'er is right. No matter how hard the backing is, if you don't strive for yourself, it's useless."

Qing Dynasty, Qianlong plane.

Qianlong looked at the Sky Screen and snorted,

"Relying on his sister to get ahead, what kind of ability is that?"

Heshen said cautiously: "Your Majesty, he was also very powerful in fighting later..."

Qianlong stared at him: "I know! I'm just saying!"

Heshen hurriedly nodded: "Your Majesty is right, Your Majesty is right."

……

On the Sky Screen, the image continued.

【Three: First appearance, conferred as Marquis in the first battle】

【129 BC (sixth year of Yuanguang)】

【Emperor Wu of Han sent four routes to attack the Xiongnu, Wei Qing served as General of Chariots and Cavalry, struck directly at the Xiongnu's sacred place of sacrifice, Dragon City, and beheaded hundreds of enemies.】

【Only Wei Qing won a complete victory among the four routes, breaking the myth that the Xiongnu were invincible, and was conferred as Marquis of Guannei.】

Qin Dynasty.

Meng Tian's eyes lit up: "Won a complete victory in the first battle? And beheaded hundreds? Okay!"

Meng Yi thought about it,

"The key is that only he won a complete victory among the four routes. What does this mean? It means he is stronger than the other three routes."

Wang Jian stroked his beard: "Being able to achieve such a record in the first time leading troops, this person is indeed a military talent."

Ying Zheng said slowly: "Dragon City... the sacred place of Xiongnu sacrifice. Attacking the place the enemy must save, good vision."

Li Si echoed below,

"Your Majesty is wise. Wei Qing's battle was not only a victory, but also hit the Xiongnu's pain point. The destruction of the sacred place of sacrifice was a heavy blow to the Xiongnu's morale."

Han Dynasty, Weiyang Palace.

Liu Che looked at the Sky Screen, his eyes full of appreciation.

"First victory at Dragon City! Good! Fought well!"

He turned to look at Wei Qing and laughed loudly:

"Wei Qing, do you know what this battle means? It means the Xiongnu are not invincible! It means our Great Han can finally hold our heads high!"

Wei Qing bowed: "Your Majesty planned the strategy, I was just following orders."

Liu Che waved his hand: "Don't talk about that. You fought it, so it's your merit."

Huo Qubing shouted from the side:

"Uncle, you were conferred as Marquis in your first battle? Powerful!"

Wei Qing stared at him: "You will be too in the future."

Huo Qubing's eyes lit up.

Tang Dynasty, Taiji Hall.

Li Jing praised: "Being able to win a complete victory in the first time leading troops, this person is indeed a natural military talent."

Cheng Yaojin scratched his head: "Li Yaoshi, what do you think he is powerful for?"

Li Jing thought for a moment: "First, dare to fight. Sending out four routes, he dared to strike directly at Dragon City, this is courage."

"Second, can fight. Going deep into enemy territory and still winning a complete victory, this is ability."

"Third, know how to fight. Attacking Dragon City is attacking what the enemy must save, this is vision. With these three things, he is a famous general material."

Li Shimin nodded: "Yaoshi's evaluation is precise."

Ming Dynasty, Hongwu plane.

Xu Da was also quite impressed,

"Conferred as Marquis in the first battle, this Wei Qing is indeed powerful."

Lan Yu rarely echoed:

"I wasn't so glorious in my first battle."

Li Wenzhong laughed: "General Lan, when was your first battle?"

Lan Yu thought about it,

"When I fought Chen Youliang with His Majesty. At that time, I was just a small soldier, where was there any glory?"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly,

"Lan Yu, you didn't catch up with the good times. If you could be conferred as Marquis in your first battle, I would let you be General-in-Chief now!"

Lan Yu smiled awkwardly.

Qing Dynasty, Qianlong plane.

Qianlong looked at the Sky Screen and snorted:

"Conferred as Marquis in the first battle? This Emperor Wu of Han is too easy to talk to."

Heshen said cautiously: "Your Majesty, that's because he won..."

Qianlong stared at him: "I know! I just think it's too easy to be conferred as Marquis. I didn't have it so easy when I ascended the throne."

Heshen hurriedly nodded: "Your Majesty is right, Your Majesty is right."

……

On the Sky Screen, the image continued.

【Four: Recovering the northern region, laying the foundation】

【127 BC (second year of Yuanshuo)】

【Wei Qing led the army out of Yunzhong, bypassed and attacked the side, recovered the Henan land (Hetao Plain), and built Shuofang County.】

【Eliminated the Xiongnu's direct threat to Chang'an, conferred as Marquis of Changping, granted 3,800 households.】

Qin Dynasty.

Meng Tian exclaimed: "Recovering Hetao? This is a great achievement!"

Meng Yi analyzed,

"The land of Hetao is rich in water and grass and is an important supply place for the Xiongnu. Recovering Hetao is equivalent to cutting off one of the Xiongnu's arms."

Wang Jian pondered: "Bypassing and attacking the side... this move is a bit like General Bai Qi. Not fighting head-on, but finding the enemy's weakness and striking with one blow."

Ying Zheng said slowly: "Eliminating the direct threat to Chang'an... this Wei Qing is no longer just a military talent. He is a commanding talent." ===== CHAPTER 26 =====
