Chapter 27: Decisive battle in the north of the desert, no royal court in the south of the desert

On the Sky Screen, the account of Wei Qing continued.

【Seven: Decisive battle in the north of the desert, no royal court in the south of the desert】

【119 BC (fourth year of Yuanshou)】

【Wei Qing and Huo Qubing each led 50,000 elite cavalry on a long expedition to the north of the desert.】

【Wei Qing encountered the main force of the Xiongnu supreme leader, won with fewer against more, chased to Mount Tianyan, and beheaded 19,000 enemies.】

【After this battle, the Xiongnu fled far away, there was no royal court in the south of the desert, and the offense and defense of Han and Xiongnu changed.】

【Emperor Wu set up the Grand Marshal, and Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were both appointed as Grand Marshal, reaching the peak of a minister.】

Qin Dynasty.

Meng Tian gasped,

"Decisive battle in the north of the desert? Long expedition to the north of the desert? This is a thousand-mile raid!"

Meng Yi was also shocked: "Won with fewer against more, chased to Mount Tianyan, beheaded 19,000 enemies... This Wei Qing is too powerful!"

Wang Jian sighed: "After this battle, the Xiongnu fled far away, there was no royal court in the south of the desert... This means that the Han Dynasty completely defeated the Xiongnu."

Ying Zheng was silent for a long time and said slowly:

"Decisive battle in the north of the desert, completely changing the offensive and defensive situation of Han and Xiongnu. This person is worthy of the word hero."

Han Dynasty, Weiyang Palace.

Liu Che looked at the Sky Screen, tears in his eyes.

"Decisive battle in the north of the desert... Xiongnu fled far away... no royal court in the south of the desert..."

He turned to look at Wei Qing, his voice trembling:

"Wei Qing, do you know what this means? It means our Great Han can finally sleep peacefully from now on! It means the Xiongnu will never dare to graze horses in the south again!"

Wei Qing bowed, his voice also trembling:

"Your Majesty, this is Your Majesty's strategy, and it was fought by Qubing and the soldiers with their lives. I dare not take credit."

Liu Che grabbed his hand,

"Don't talk about that! You fought it, so it's yours!"

He turned to look at Huo Qubing,

"And you! You and Wei Qing are my Qilin generals! You are the pillars of the Great Han!"

Huo Qubing laughed.

Tang Dynasty, Taiji Hall.

Li Jing praised endlessly:

"Decisive battle in the north of the desert, winning with fewer against more, chasing the enemy for a thousand miles... This is a true famous battle!"

"First, the north of the desert is the hinterland of the Xiongnu, going deep for a thousand miles, and could be surrounded and annihilated at any time."

"Second, encountering the main force of the supreme leader and winning with fewer against more is true ability."

"Third, chasing to Mount Tianyan and beheading 19,000 enemies is completely crushing the Xiongnu."

Li Shimin nodded: "Wei Qing's battle fought out the prestige of the Han Dynasty and his own reputation."

Ming Dynasty, Hongwu plane.

Xu Da sighed: "Decisive battle in the north of the desert, winning with fewer against more, chasing the enemy for a thousand miles... This Wei Qing is a true famous general!"

Lan Yu said: "If only I could fight such a battle."

Li Wenzhong laughed: "General Lan, if you want to fight, you must have Xiongnu."

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

Qing Dynasty, Qianlong plane.

Qianlong said sourly: "Decisive battle in the north of the desert, winning with fewer against more... This Wei Qing really has some skill."

Heshen said cautiously: "Your Majesty, if you were to fight, you would definitely be more powerful than him."

Qianlong snorted: "That's for sure. I personally lead the expedition, and I will definitely win."

Above the various dynasties, the Sky Screen began to play Wei Qing's later years.

【Eight: Later years, high merit but not arrogant】

【Wei Qing married his former lord, Princess Pingyang, and his status was extremely honorable.】

【He did not raise retainers, did not seize power, was humble and low-key, and was deeply trusted by Emperor Wu.】

【After Huo Qubing died young, Wei Qing remained the head of the military, but always strictly observed the duties of a minister.】

【106 BC (fifth year of Yuanfeng)】

【Wei Qing passed away, Emperor Wu granted burial on the east side of Maoling, the tomb was built in the shape of Mount Lu, symbolizing his achievement of sweeping the Xiongnu.】

Qin Dynasty.

Meng Tian sighed: "Not raising retainers, not seizing power, humble and low-key... Not many people can do this."

Meng Yi said: "Even fewer can end well when their merit shakes the master."

Wang Jian said slowly: "I have fought all my life and know the difficulty of the two words 'humble retreat.' Reaching the rank of General-in-Chief and Grand Marshal, still strictly observing the duties of a minister, and ending well... I am not as good."

Ying Zheng was silent for a moment and said slowly: "This person not only knows how to fight, but also how to be a person."

Han Dynasty, Weiyang Palace.

Liu Che looked at the Sky Screen, his eyes a little red.

"Wei Qing..."

He murmured, "You accompanied me all your life, and in the end, you were still so humble."

Wei Qing bowed, his voice low: "Your Majesty's trust, I have nothing to repay."

Liu Che waved his hand: "Don't say it. I know you are a good minister. Much stronger than those who flatter all day long."

He paused, then suddenly laughed: "You married Princess Pingyang? Good! Pingyang is my sister, you married her, so you are my brother-in-law!"

Wei Qing smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, I dare not."

Liu Che stared at him: "What dare not? This is God's will!"

Huo Qubing shouted from the side:

"Uncle, you married the princess? Then should I call the princess aunt in the future?"

Wei Qing stared at him: "You shut up!"

Huo Qubing didn't care much that he would die before his uncle.

Tang Dynasty, Taiji Hall.

Fang Xuanling sighed: "Not raising retainers, not seizing power, humble and low-key... Not many people can do this."

Du Ruhui nodded: "Even fewer can end well when their merit shakes the master. Wei Qing can end well, not only because of Emperor Wu of Han's trust, but also because he knows how to be a person."

Li Shimin pondered: "Strictly observing the duties of a minister and ending well... this is the hardest thing to do."

Li Jing bowed: "Your Majesty is right. Many generals find it easy to win battles, but hard to protect their bodies."

Ming Dynasty, Hongwu plane.

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed: "Not raising retainers, not seizing power, humble and low-key... This Wei Qing is really smart."

Xu Da agreed with Zhu Yuanzhang's words,

"Your Majesty is right. Not many people can end well when their merit shakes the master. Wei Qing can end well because he knows when to advance and when to retreat."

Lan Yu was rarely silent, thoughtful.

Li Wenzhong said softly: "General Lan, have you learned it?"

Lan Yu stared at him: "I know! I'm just thinking!"

Qing Dynasty, Qianlong plane.

Qianlong was a little envious: "Married his former lord as his wife? This Wei Qing is really a winner in life."

Heshen said cautiously: "Your Majesty, you have three thousand beauties in your harem, much more powerful than a princess."

Qianlong snorted: "That's for sure. My women are the most beautiful in the world."

Heshen said cautiously: "Your Majesty, you have three thousand beauties in your harem, which is much more impressive than a princess."

Qianlong gave a hum: "That goes without saying. My women are all the most beautiful in the world."
