Chapter 152 Sealing the Wolf and Dwelling in the Wilderness

"Go, I'll take you somewhere; we can look around more later!"

"Ju'er happens to be there too, along with crown princes from other dynasties. You can exchange ideas with him."

As Liu Che walked, he gave instructions to Huo Qubing behind him.

Huo Qubing: ? ? ?

Then, Liu Che pushed open the door.

"That's strange. Where did they go?"

Looking at the empty courtyard, Liu Che raised an eyebrow.

The next second, Chen Mo's voice came from the backyard.

"Hey! Slow down! Don't rush, there's a telescope inside, it'll break if you drop it."

Huo Qubing looked at the scene that had changed in an instant with a look of astonishment.

He followed Liu Che around to the side courtyard, where the small backyard was almost entirely filled with various cardboard boxes.

Meanwhile, Chen Mo was rolling up his sleeves, helping Zhu Biao, Fusu, and others move goods.

Huo Qubing looked over there and saw that Crown Prince Liu Ju was also helping to move the goods.

Huo Qubing was dumbfounded by the sight of him covered in sweat.

Huo Qubing: ? ? ?

where is this?

Who is he?

Is this person really that amazing?

They dare to send the crown prince to move goods?

Liu Che didn't pay any attention, but simply walked over and greeted him.

"Manager Chen, this is...?"

He pointed to the cardboard box on the ground, his eyes gleaming.

"What good stuff have you brought in this time?"

"One, two, three, slow down, slow down, put it here!"

Upon hearing the sound, Chen Mo turned his head.

Upon seeing that it was Liu Che, accompanied by a handsome young man, he paused for a moment, then wiped the sweat from his brow as he carried the goods.

"Hey! Old Liu's back again? What's up?"

Huo Qubing: ? ? ?

Wait a moment?

What did he just call His Majesty?

Old Liu? ??

Is this something that can be made to squeal?

Huo Qubing fell into deep thought.

He felt that he had already shown courage by daring to offer his opinions.

But compared to this guy who was about the same age as him, he felt like a greenhorn.

Not to mention him, even his uncle wouldn't dare to be so arrogant!

Huo Qubing looked at Liu Che, but found that he was not angry, but just chuckled.

"I was just about to change our previous national policy, and I was also thinking about whether I could buy some good stuff."

After speaking, Liu Che's gaze fell on the cardboard box again.

"Manager Chen, what did you buy?"

"Old Li is going to wage war against Tuyuhun, so he ordered military supplies."

"Military supplies?"

Liu Che immediately became interested.

His gaze swept around, finally settling on his feet.

On the cardboard box at my feet, the words "binoculars" and "10x50" were clearly printed.

Liu Che pondered for a moment, then opened the box and took one out.

He glanced at the binoculars in his hand, then placed them over his eyes.

Almost instantly, his hands clenched.

After a while, Liu Che reluctantly put down the telescope, handed it to Huo Qubing, and looked at Chen Mo with a displeased expression.

"Chen Mo! You little brat!"

He was practically gritting his teeth as he pointed at the binocular cases.

"With such a treasure, why didn't you tell me sooner? Instead, Li Er beat you to it!"

Huo Qubing took the telescope; it was quite heavy.

Although he had never seen this object before, he could tell from Liu Che's actions just now—holding it up to his eyes and looking out towards the backyard—

"hiss!!!"

Even someone as resolute as Huo Qubing couldn't help but let out a soft gasp at this moment, his arm trembling almost imperceptibly.

The details of distant street scenes, pedestrians, and even roof tiles are instantly brought closer to your eyes, so clear that it makes your scalp tingle!

This isn't just a telescope; it's a pair of all-seeing eyes that deliver enemy intelligence from dozens of miles away right to the commander-in-chief's nose!

Used for reconnaissance of enemy camps, terrain observation, command and dispatch, and even assassination of enemy leaders...

Combined with the walkie-talkie His Majesty had taken out earlier...

Its value is simply immeasurable!

"His Majesty!"

Huo Qubing's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement.

He lowered his binoculars, looked at Liu Che, and his eyes burned with intense passion.

"This thing... if this thing were given to our Han scouts and military commanders, the movements of the Xiongnu and the dangers of the mountains and rivers would be entirely under our control!"

"Night raids, ambushes, pursuits—they're always successful!"

Liu Che gave a heavy snort, which was his response to Huo Qubing.

His gaze remained fixed intently on Chen Mo, the meaning of which was crystal clear.

Take a look!

Even my nephew knows! Such a good thing, why are you hiding it away? Why didn't you bring it out sooner?

Chen Moqian chuckled.

"You didn't ask, did you? Next time, definitely next time! I'll tell you guys if I find anything good next time!"

Liu Che snorted.

Chen Mo's gaze then turned to Huo Qubing.

"Who is this?"

"This is my nephew, surnamed Huo."

Huo Qubing clasped his hands in a respectful greeting to Chen Mo, but his gaze remained fixed on the supplies.

Is his surname Huo?

Chen Mo was slightly taken aback.

"The champion, Huo Qubing?"

"You...know me?"

Huo Qubing frowned and immediately asked.

"Who doesn't know Huo Qubing, the champion who sealed the wolf's lair?"

Chen Mo's gaze was intense.

He glanced at Huo Qubing and pulled Liu Che aside.

"What are you trying to say now, kid? Do you think there's something wrong with Qubing?"

No, not at all!

Chen Mo quickly waved his hand and whispered.

"Old Liu, your title of Champion Marquis... is truly remarkable!"

"Of course, he is my General of the Cavalry, born into wealth and privilege!"

Liu Che looked proud and turned his gaze back to Chen Mo.

"So what exactly are you trying to say?"

"How did things go after Qu Bing?"

Chen Mo pondered for a moment before speaking.

"In the Battle of Hexi, he twice led elite cavalry deep into enemy territory, sweeping through the Xiongnu forces of King Xiutu and King Hunxie, opening up the Hexi Corridor, establishing four commanderies, and severing the right arm of the Xiongnu!"

"Even more impressive was the decisive battle in the northern desert. He and General Wei Qing split up to attack the main force of the Xiongnu, leading their troops more than two thousand li northward, crossing the desert, sealing the Wolf Mountain, performing the Zen ceremony at Guyan, drinking water from the Han Sea (present-day Lake Baikal), and striking straight into the heart of the Xiongnu royal court, driving the Xiongnu far away, leaving no royal court south of the desert!"

At this point, Chen Mo couldn't help but complain.

"Honestly, your Huo Qubing is like he's got a cheat code; Li Guang got lost several times."

"But he's like he has a GPS navigator installed, he hits exactly where he's pointed, and he's invincible!"

"The enemy saw Huo Qubing as soon as they heard he had entered a certain tribe."

"A true blitzkrieg by the Han Dynasty!"

As Liu Che listened, his eyes grew brighter and brighter, his breathing became rapid, and his face radiated with immense excitement and pride.

He repeatedly praised it.

"Excellent! Excellent! What a magnificent display of skill, sealing the wolf's lair and drinking from the vast sea! Truly worthy of being the esteemed Qu Bing'er I have placed in! He is indeed a divinely bestowed sword upon my Han Dynasty!"

Chen Mo sighed as he looked at his excited expression.

"But unfortunately..."

The excitement on his face suddenly froze, and Liu Che abruptly turned his head, staring intently at Chen Mo.

"Go on! But what's the pity?!"

"What happened to Qu Bing afterward?!"

"If anything... goes wrong, you must tell me! Not a single word is to be hidden!"

"But unfortunately..."

Chen Mo glanced at Huo Qubing, who was fiddling with the binoculars and looking excited, and sighed deeply.

"But unfortunately, Huo Qubing died too young."

Historical records state that shortly after the Battle of Mobei, in the sixth year of the Yuanshou era, he died of illness at the young age of twenty-four.
