He was an illegitimate son, but the Huns were frightened by the news. He only lived for twenty-three years, but he became a god for eternity.
Huo Qubing, a shady "bastard".
His father ran away before he was born, and his mother was a humble slave girl. He grew up in a woodshed and was pointed at and scolded for ten years.
When he was six years old, his aunt Wei Zifu became the queen, and his fate was changed.
But so what?
"Nepotism", "connected household", "embroidered pillow" - these labels go hand in hand. Everyone is waiting to see his joke.
He made no excuses. He just kept practicing martial arts until his hands bled, and his sword skills were even more ruthless than those of veterans.
At the age of seventeen, he finally got his chance.
Eight hundred light cavalry went deep alone. Everyone thought he was going to die.
The result?
He beheaded two thousand people, captured the Xiongnu royal family alive, and became a marquis in one battle.
Those who had laughed at him all shut their mouths.
This is just the beginning.
At the age of nineteen, in the Battle of Hexi, he beheaded 30,000 people and opened up the Silk Road.
At the age of twenty-one, in the decisive battle in Mobei, the wolf was given the title of Xu, and the horse drank from the vast sea.
The Huns gave him a name - "Flying General". For he comes and goes like the wind, killing people like mowing grass.
The emperor wanted to build him a mansion, but he said, "The Huns are not destroyed, so why should we have a home?"
At twenty-three, he died.
Like a shooting star, streaking across the night sky, short and bright.
But his name is engraved in the blood of every Chinese.
This is the revenge history of an illegitimate son, and also the story of a young war god's ascension to the gods.
