Chapter 152 Extraordinary Thoughts

"You should understand the task for the rest of your life, right?"

"Die the frontier in battle, or die of old age!"

"not necessarily!"

"Oh? There is any other way?"

"Feed to the Huns!"

...

Since that day, Yun Lang has never seen him again. He disappeared from Yangguan like a fog of dust with the wind.

The walls of Yangguan are not high, but they are very large. The beacon towers outside the city stand tall on Dundun Mountain overlooking Yangguan. The water waves on the south side of the city are rippling, one is the highest point and the other is the lowest point.

Both locations are equally important and are areas where the army focuses on defense.

The messenger from Zhangye County came, which also brought news that there was no plague in Jiuquan County, and also brought news from Cao Xiang, who was full of bitterness, and a letter.

In Cao Xiang's message, he was extremely angry at the incident of Yun Lang throwing him in Jingtie Mountain. In his letter, he said that he really couldn't believe that a general would throw his deputy general into the wilderness without saying a word and let him die.

When he opened his letter, there was a piece of white paper inside...it made people feel heartbroken.

Sui Yue sympathized with Cao Xiang and was also very confused about Yun Lang's approach.

"There should not be a four brother in a family on the battlefield at the same time. It is not only that national laws do not allow, but also that etiquette and law do not allow."

"Huo, Cao, Yun, Li is not a family, nor can he become a family. Junhou is extremely wise and will not understand this principle."

"After this battle, Huo Qubing was about to be a hunter, and Yun Lang was about to enter the Imperial Academy to enjoy teaching.

Cao Xiang had been coveting the position of Grand Secretary for a long time, and Li Gan wished he could become the general of Zhenbei in the Han Dynasty.

As for the children, they naturally rely on their own talents to find a position that suits them in front of His Majesty.”

"Your Majesty is not going to be the prime minister? Your Majesty intends to keep this position for you."

Yun Lang put down the pen in his hand and looked at Sui Yue and said, "The conversation just now was very wise. Why do you always like to lead the topic in a stupid direction?"

Sui Yue shook his head and said, "It's better to ask clearly. Don't lie to me. If I lie to me, I won't have a good ending, and your ending will not be better."

The clouds sighed quietly.

"How great would it be if the person I asked was His Majesty..."

"Your Majesty is the emperor. The emperor will not ask questions in the way a slave asks his master. If you have any doubts in your heart, your Majesty will use a knife to clear the doubts.

So, I can only ask.”

Yun Lang stood up, looked at the busy military patrol outside the window and said, "Have you handed over your military affairs to Xiahou Jing?"

Sui Yue smiled and said, "Xiahou Jing is very good at handling government affairs. When dealing with spies, it depends on the embroidered envoy and the young disciple of Xiahou Jing.

I really didn't expect that a person with a scheming personality like Xiahou Jing could actually teach a disciple with a delicate heart with seven orifices.

I heard that the young man’s mother is still serving as a servant in your Yun family?”

Yun Lang nodded and said, "Follow me and have no future."

Sui Yue said: "It's not that you have no prospects when you follow you, but that your eldest disciple Huo Guang is too domineering. You should say that a young man without Huo Guang's ability is destined to be reused in the Yun family."

"Huo Guang is still young and is just a little clever. In the eyes of the court, he is just a monkey jumping up and down. Who would see it?"

"Even the little monkey is the little monkey you love the most, right? You have used a lot of effort on him.

Everyone thinks that the Crown Prince is in the time of pride, but you dragged Huo Guang, who was about to make great contributions, away from the Crown Prince.

Jun, don’t you be optimistic about the prince?”

Yun Lang smiled and said, "Your Majesty has been in power for one day, and he is the lord of the human race. Although the prince is his closest relative, I think it is better to follow His Majesty alone."

"Wei family, Changping, one has always been close to you, the other is even your mother, and with the relationship between the Grand Sima and General, you should support His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Yun Lang shook his head and said, "You forgot that there is another Gillian!"

Sui Yue sighed and said, "It's a mess. If you want to figure it out, you need a quick knife!"

Yun Lang sighed, "You can't kill it, no matter where you kill it, it will be bloody and sad.

After all the calculations, only by slashing me can you be relatively happy. Your Majesty is also a little easier.

Speaking of which, Yun is also a royal family. I have never liked to cut my family with a knife to make them look different.

So, live your life."

Sui Yue helped Yun Lang to think hard for a long time, but he didn't come up with a way to have the best of both worlds, so he had to stay in a daze with Yun Lang.

Sui Yue believed that even if he handed this issue over to His Majesty and put His Majesty in Yun Lang's position, he would probably not be able to find a good and peaceful way to deal with it.

However, this is based on Yun Lang's idea. If His Majesty himself is in Yun Lang's position, there will definitely be a solution.

When Sui Yue left, Yun Lang read Cao Xiang's letter again, and the paper was densely filled with small characters on it.

After Yun Lang saw it, he breathed a sigh of relief. Things were not as bad as he thought, and there was still room for improvement.

Looking at the slowly disappearing handwriting on the paper, Yun Lang threw the paper into the brazier. The paper turned into black ash, but the handwriting on it became clearer. He used a shovel to completely disperse the paper dust, and the paper without handwriting in the letter disappeared completely in human time.

The more Liu Che knew about Yun Lang, the more unknown he would be. He was a persistent person and would not give up if he didn't fully understand someone.

At some point, the contact information between Yun Lang, Cao Xiang and Huo Qubing became a strange way.

In a letter, they were all very normal greetings, but the three of them could read different meanings.

For example, it was clearly a wordless letter written by Cao Xiang to Yun Lang, but what Yun Lang saw was written by Wei Qing to Huo Qubing from all the way.

"The Huns left the Beihai, and there was no one in the Beihai, and there was no trace of the Huns' lives there.

Judging from the grass conditions on the grassland, it was at least two months since the Huns left the Beihai.

In other words, two armies were completely lost. Now, we are the only one remaining to intercept the Huns who flee westward."

During dinner in the evening, there were only Yun Lang, Su Zhi and Huo Guang on the dinner table, Yun Lang told Huo Guang this bad news.

"Chu Lang had been doing business with the Fuyu people for many years. It is logical that he had contact with the Huns, but he did not send any effective news.

Master, can you let the dog go?”

Yun Lang shook his head and said, "No, someone is more suitable than a dog. He has left."

"Xie Ning?"

Yun Lang did not answer, but just lowered his head to eat. Su Zhi looked up at the silent master and apprentice, and picked up vegetables into their bowls and smiled: "Eat first, don't talk about those business matters that make people feel troubled at home."

"Did my elder brother find traces of the Huns on the grassland and have not returned yet?"

Huo Guang did not give up the right to speak official business just because Su Zhi picked up a piece of beef for him.

"According to the speed of the Huns' march, two months were not enough to get to our side, especially when they were carrying a large number of cattle and sheep.

Between the North Sea and the Han Sea, there must be a wintering land for the Huns. We need to find this wintering land now."

"Does we really want to stay in the wasteland that can freeze and crack stones in the cold winter?"

Yun Lang shook his head and said, "Even if Maodong's Xiong team was found on the wasteland, our army that had been trekking in the ice and snow for many days may not be able to defeat the powerful Xiongnu.

Even if we win, we will suffer serious losses and the gain will not be worth the loss."

Huo Guang felt that his master seemed to be intentionally letting the Huns leave.

Although the vast sea in winter is extremely cold, he personally supervised the fur coats for the soldiers, and almost everyone can get one.

The military rations allocated to the soldiers were also personally approved by him and the emperor. There was enough food, warm fur clothes, and the powerful gunpowder he had witnessed with his own eyes. He had a certain chance of winning against the Huns and had a great chance of winning.

What's more, the clothes of the Huns in winter may not be as good as those of the Han soldiers. With the increase and decrease, it is not so difficult to accept chasing the Huns in winter.
