Huo Qubing story

1 year, in the sixth year of yuanshuo (BC 123), Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once again planned a large-scale counterattack against Hungary (that is, the battle of desert south). Huo Qubing, who was under eighteen, volunteered, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty named him Captain Yao. On the battlefield, Huo Qubing won many battles, and Wei Qing gave him eight hundred cavalry.

Huo Qubing spirited, led the first batch of foot soldiers, running hundreds of miles in the vast desert, looking for traces of the enemy. As a result, his original long-distance attack and encounter were successful in the first battle, killing and injuring more than 2,000 people. Two uncles of Hun Khan were killed and one was captured alive. And Huo Qubing's eight hundred cavalry came back unscathed.

2. 19-year-old commander-in-chief Huo Qubing lived up to expectations and took a beautiful detour in the desert. On the 6th, he fought in the Five Xiongnu Departments, making great strides all the way, and launched a life-and-death battle with Lv Hou and Zhebo Wang in Gaolan Mountain. In this battle, Huo Qubing and his men fought against the Xiongnu army and fought bravely with the determination to die from top to bottom.

In the end, Huo Qubing won a great victory, and only 3,000 of the 10,000 chosen men returned to Chang 'an. Xiongnu suffered heavy losses-Lu Hou and Zhelan Wang Shuangshuang died, Prince Xie Hun, Guo Xiang and a captain were captured, and 8,960 people were killed. The Xiongnu sacrificed to heaven and became the trophy of the Han army.

3. In the process of searching for the main force of Xiongnu in Mobei, Huo Qubing led his troops to capture more than 2,000 Li, wiped out more than 70,000 people, lost 15,000 people, and captured three Xiongnu generals and 83 generals alive. About is eager to see the huns khan, "lonely for failure" Huo Qubing pursued all the way, came to today's Mongolian Kent mountain area.

Speaking of which, Huo Qubing paused and led the army to hold a ceremony to worship heaven and earth-a ceremony to worship heaven and earth was held in Xushan where wolves lived, and a ceremony to worship the earth was held in Guyan Mountain. After Huo Qubing sealed the wolf in a professional position, he continued to lead the army to pursue the Huns in depth, and only returned to the army after hitting the vast sea (now Lake Berga in Russia).

4. Huo Qubing was born as a slave and grew up on the front of renewal, but he never indulged in wealth and luxury. He values national security and achievements more than anything else. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once built a luxurious mansion for Huo Qubing, but Huo Qubing flatly refused, saying, "How can the Huns be home until they are extinct?"

Huo Qubing is the illegitimate child of Huo Zhongru. But Huo Qubing didn't know about his father until he grew up. At this time, he was serving as a general in title of generals in ancient times and went to Pingyang (now Linfen, Shanxi) by the way. Huo Qubing ordered his men to invite Huo Zhongru to the rest hotel, and bowed down and said, "I didn't know that I was the son of an adult (adult: father of Han and Tang Dynasties) until I got to the hospital."

Huo Zhongru was too ashamed to answer. He bowed down and kowtowed and said, "I owe it to General, and this is force of nature." Later, Huo Qubing bought Huo Zhongru a peasant handmaiden and took his half-brother Huo Guang to Chang 'an for farming.
