Zhang Yue handed over the military training matter to Chen Wannian, changed into his official uniform, and hurried to the palace outside the Taishang Emperor Temple.

At this time, Liu Jinzheng and Sang Jun were playing Goji.

This is the most popular and most common daily leisure activity for the nobles.

In the past, King Qiu Shou, the giant of the Gongyang School and Dong Zhongshu's favorite disciple, was famous all over the world for his proficiency in Gozi chess.

"Your Highness..." Zhang Yue walked forward.

"Zhang Qing is here..." Liu Jin quickly put down the chess piece in his hand and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

"General Ershi is here..." Zhang Yue lowered his head and asked, "Why are you right?"

"General Ershi?" Liu Jin also frowned. Liu Jin had always been afraid of his uncle, King Changyi. As the Han family currently has the highest power and commanding the most soldiers, General Ershi had always had some rifts with his father.

It may even be the number one enemy!

This foreign relative who holds heavy troops has always been the biggest threat to his series!

After pondering for a moment, Liu Jin asked, "What are the things that Haixi Hou is coming to Xinfeng?"

"I don't know..." Zhang Yue said softly: "However, I guess it is probably for the matter of Cheshi or Lu Bode..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Yue observed Liu Jin's expression and found that His Highness Changsun was not angry. Then he felt relieved and asked, "What does Your Highness mean?"

Liu Jin looked at Zhang Yue intently and said, "A few days ago, you talked to Gu about Che Shi. Now the conditions for destruction or surrendering Che Shi are not ripe..."

A few days ago, when Li Guangli returned to the DPRK and planned to seek support from the ruling and opposition to support the Cheshi Battle, Zhang Yue and Liu Jin analyzed this matter.

The conclusion is of course that the driver must fight!

It is not only for shock, but also because Cheshi, Kucha and other countries happened to be stuck in the throat of Hanluntai City and Juyan areas.

It guards the strategic channel for the Han army to enter the Western Regions west, and it is more related to the smoothness and safety of the Silk Road.

More importantly, as long as the Cheshi and Kucha can be defeated or even destroyed.

Then, the Han army could advance out of the Puchang Sea, thus bordering the sphere of influence of the Wusun Kingdom.

In this way, the power of the anti-Huns alliance in the Western Regions can be connected to one line, thus in turn shaking the Huns' throats.

This is the background of the Han and the Huns' Five-Snatch of the Cheshi in history.

In a sense, seizing Cheshi and Kucha is actually equivalent to playing the music of the demise of the Huns.

Once the Huns lost Cheshi and Kucha, they would lose their most determined allies in the Western Regions.

Its significance is almost comparable to the Allied forces landing in Italy and liberating Rome during World War II.

The Huns who lost the Western Regions will lose all their strategic activity space, starve to death, and trapped in the desert in the northern desert.

By then, the Huns had only one choice to have all their main forces and fight the Han Dynasty.

However……

In the end, Zhang Yue, Liu Jin and others discussed that the strategic conditions for destroying or controlling the Puchanghai region and then pursuing the Western Regions and cutting off the right arm of the Xiongnu were not yet mature.

Because the Huns now have the power to support Cheshi and other countries.

In history, the Han Dynasty and the Huns competed for the five chariot troops, and the blood was flowing into a river and exhausted, which was the best proof.

Moreover, the foundation of the Han-Wusun Alliance is not yet mature.

The Wusun people may not be willing to stand on the side of the Han Dynasty.

The Han-Wusun alliance in history was due to Princess Jieyou's unremitting efforts.

However, now, this great Han emperor has just married into Wusun and has not had a solid foundation.

The most important thing is that the Wusun people still maintain a fight with the Huns without breaking it.

The younger sister of the Huns, the Queen Shanyu, is the Zuo Lady of Kunmo, now Wusun!

Of course, there is another important reason that Zhang Yue did not tell Liu Jin.

There is no horse in the Han Dynasty...

Speaking of which, you may not believe it!

At its peak, under the rule of the Han Taipu, five supervisors and six stables, raising hundreds of thousands of horses, of which nearly 400,000 qualified war horses were nearly 400,000.

At that time, the Han Dynasty had not yet defeated the Huns and did not obtain Hetao and Hexi.

But today, there are Hetao, Hexi, and Han families that occupy a large number of ranches, but they can't even get all the horses needed for the expeditionary army.

In the second year of Tianhan, Li Ling's troops were ordered to leave Juyan and responded to the main force of General Li Guangli, the second-class general.

However, he waited in Juyan for two months, but the Taipu Yamen did not even deliver a single horse.

This forced Li Ling to go out on foot without a war horse. In the end, this elite corps that had consumed countless funds from the Han family and took six or seven years to train were lost in Yu Junji Mountain.

Zhang Yue read some documents reported by the Taipu Yamen in Lantai.

All the contents of the report are refined and simplified, but in fact they are just one sentence: Taifu has no money, please make money quickly.

But the problem is that the country has given too much money and resources.

The Shaofu revolved tens of millions of dollars every year, and paid the Taipu to raise horses. The Grand Secretary's farmers' funds were numerous, and they basically invested in Taipu's holes.

In order to raise horses, today's son even collects tribute and horse tuition money from the people.

As a result, the total number of war horses in the 36th Yuan of Taipu was no more than 20,000 in the annual war horses!

Where did this money and these resources go?

No one can explain it clearly.

But it is obvious that the family of Prime Minister Gongsun He has been in charge of Taipu Yousi for nearly twenty years.

The number of horses in the railing of Taifu continued to decline during this period.

On the contrary, the wealth of the Gongsun family is increasing day by day, and Ge Yihou's house is magnificent and contains countless treasures.

Although his brother-in-law, the Wei family's sons were extremely rich and noble. I have long read Chinese website

It’s just that Zhang Yue is limited to his identity and cannot tell Liu Jin directly.

Otherwise, someone might be holding a plate on his body and he wouldn't be able to wash it clean.

Moreover, Zhang Yue's power is still too weak now.

If you just want to compete with the Gongsun family, maybe it can.

However, it is difficult to shake the bureaucrats and interest groups from all over the Taifu.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yue also clenched his fists gently.

In fact, Zhang Yue doesn’t hate corrupt officials or something.

But Gongsun’s family can’t even be corrupt officials well, which is so hateful!

What’s even more hateful is that because of these scoundrels, it is likely that if Zhang Yue attacks the Huns in the future, he will also face the dilemma of lack of war horses!

He listened to Liu Jin and said, "But I also heard that King Cheshi and King Kucha often humiliated, made things difficult for them, and even attacked and killed Han Shang and Han envoys. If they did not give them some punishment, they would probably be more arrogant, right?"

"Now, since General Ershi is here, then Gu will go and meet him with Qing..." Liu Jin stood up and said with a smile.

When I heard this, I could hardly believe my ears.

This His Highness Changsun actually wants to meet General Ershi Li Guangli in person?

Isn’t that something he tried to avoid or even escape before?

However, how could they know that Liu Jin is no longer the one who has passed away?

As early as two months ago, Liu Jin had already understood that he was the eldest grandson of the Han Dynasty and the eldest grandson of Zhuxia.

He is not the emperor's eldest grandson of the Huns or some other messy barbarians.

Now that Li Guangli has come to his house in person, he certainly wants to take this opportunity to learn more about the Huns and the Western Regions.
