Chapter 478 Difficult choices

"Help me, help me, my old waist..."

After finally recovering from the handstand, Liu Yishou stretched his body while rubbing his waist, as if he had twisted when recovering just now.

"Tsk tsk, Liu Dudu, who holds a powerful soldier in his hand, actually stands on his head in the study and twisted his waist. Who will believe it?"

While teasing Yang Jiang, she sat down on the ground and asked Liu Yishou to rest his head on his lap.This time Liu Yishou didn't grope her body dishonestly, so Yang Jiang knew that his man was really exhausted this time.

"Ah Lang is really tired. Since last year, he was either fighting or on the way to war. You have to do so many things by yourself. Are you tired?"

She put her cold little hand on Liu Yishou's forehead, and looked at the person next to her pillow tenderly, with a slightly indulgent and slightly drunk expression on her face.

"In the world of great struggle, there is no such thing as a rest. Like Yu Jin and Wang Wei, they actually have a way out, and they are just a bit miserable. But if I retreat, there will be a cliff behind me, and there will be no place to die.

It doesn't matter if I die, it will also implicate you, how can I have the right to say rest? "

Liu Yishou sighed and changed into a comfortable position.

Gao Huan's movements became a mystery, and it was still unclear whether the other party would go south or not.

Therefore, recently, Liu Yishou has also been inexplicably agitated.

Whether Gao Huan comes or not, his coping methods are completely two concepts.If Gao Huan does not come, Liu Yishou intends to lead troops south to recover Linhai County (Taizhou, Zhejiang) and Yongjia County (Wenzhou, Zhejiang) in the near future, and expand Liang Guo's territory.

These two coastal states and counties are not completely under actual control, and the local tycoons are in a state of listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement.Liu Yishou had just entered Jiankang before, so he didn't have time to deal with these bastards.Now that you can free up your hands, it is time to regain lost ground, win people's hearts, and establish authority.

And recently, Liu Yishou heard that the powerful chieftain in Guangzhou had colluded with the local Xiao clan, and they were about to make a move, and seemed to have plans to crack the earth and seal the king.

Although I don't know what kind of roles Xiao Ying and Chen Baxian play in it, but in the long run, they can't let it go and let it go.

These things are intricate, and every aspect has to be considered. Of course, Liu Yishou will feel very tired.

"When you're sad, if you stand on your head, won't the tears stop falling?"

Yang Jiang asked suspiciously, this question has nothing to do with the content of their chat just now.

"Jiankang's son-in-law can besiege the city with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, what is impossible? One day you want to cry, why don't you try standing on your head?"

Liu Yishou said angrily, Yang Jiang was very curious, and always asked some weird questions, she was already a mother, but she still acted like a child.

"Ah Lang, are you really self-taught?" Taking advantage of the other party's poor condition, Yang Jiang threw out the doubts in his heart all along.

"Why do you ask that?"

Liu Yishou asked weakly.

"Look at my father (Yang Kan), although others say he is very good at fighting and capable, but in fact he is greedy for money, lavish, and very fond of wine and sex. After arriving in Jiankang, he has had more than a dozen beautiful concubines. up.

My father has been taught by a famous teacher since he was a child, but you are doing much better than people of his age.It is said that young and frivolous, why can A Lang be so steady? "

Yang Jiang has always felt that Liu Yishou's greatest strengths are not his intelligence, ability, and resourcefulness.Those are outsiders' opinions on Liu Yishou.

As Yang Jiang's pillow person, she thinks his greatest strength is his calmness and restraint.

He can like something, but say no to it.Don't drink when you don't celebrate with your subordinates, don't touch women when you're busy, and take it easy.He will not be tied up by anyone or anything, even addicted and cannot be quit.

Even Yang Kan can't do this, let alone promote the likes of Huan.Whether Liu Yishou was taught by a famous teacher or not, Yang Jiang was very skeptical.If you say you are self-taught, it is really the sun coming out of the west.

"A lot of things, if you've seen a lot before, it's not interesting even now. They're nothing but illusions and illusions.

There are no immortals in this world. When we are dying, we should think about how we lived in this life. If the things we have done are worthy of pride and remembrance, then this life is not in vain.

I have climbed to a very high position now. If I can't do something for the people of the world, I will do a great cause vigorously.

Then when I get old, I will definitely not be able to be peaceful and at ease in my heart, and I will definitely feel regretful and want to die.

Compared with these, those things like drinking and eating meat, romantic affairs and so on are just passing by, so it doesn't matter if you don't mention them. "

Liu Yishou said slowly, and reached out to touch Yang Jiang's pretty face.

In his previous life, he should have been regarded as a dead person. Now that he has come alive and walked here for a while, he has finally walked out of a bloody road. How can he give up halfway and be willing to degenerate.

This is the arrogance and confidence that a traveler should have.People who have died once will always see through certain people and certain things.

"Understood, I won't ask any more. Ah Lang, you should sleep for a while."

Yang Jiang gently covered Liu Yishou's eyes, and murmured softly, "Whether the world will be peaceful in the future, when we are old, you take me to sail and go fishing in the sea?"

"Okay, then it's settled."

Liu Yishou said softly, unconsciously, his consciousness gradually blurred, and he fell into a deep sleep.

……

Although Sun Teng and others strongly advised Gao Huan not to send troops to Liang Guo, they believed that the timing of sending troops was very bad.But Gao Huan had a bad breath in his heart, he was very depressed, and he couldn't understand his thoughts at all.

Numerous examples in history can prove that when a person cannot understand his thoughts, he cannot do anything well.Gao Huan's condition is not good, and everyone under his command can see it, but he can't tell those things.

It's about the son, to gossip too much is to think that one's life is too long!
It's okay to say that Dou Tai is off, after all, he is an "outsider".But Gao Cheng was blind in one eye, and Gao Huan was unable to avenge his son, which made him faintly prestige.

There were many people who opposed it, but they did not dispel Gao Huan's idea of ​​revenge.He secretly wrote to Duan Rong and his son who guarded Jinzhou, hoping that Duan Rong and his son could come to Yecheng to discuss with him about sending troops to Liang.

As for the defense of Jinzhou, Gao Huan handed it over to Gao Yue, and asked Gao Yue and She Digan to station in Jinzhou.Again, as a leader, if you really want to accomplish something, there are still many means.

If you transfer away those who oppose you, aren't the ones who are left just those who support you?Gao Huan sees this very clearly.

However, many days passed after the letter was sent to Huguan City, but Gao Huan did not wait for a reply at all, as if nothing had disappeared.

On this day, just as he was planning to send someone to Huguan City to inquire about the advice of Duan and his son, Duan Shao rushed from Huguan City to Yecheng single-handedly, and brought Duan Rong's personal letter.

In Bafu's study, Duan Shao carefully sat opposite the table, watching Gao Huan read the letter he brought, thinking about how to speak.

Duan Rong had a prediction before coming here, and the prospects are not optimistic.

"I understand what your father means."

Gao Huan sighed, put down the letter paper, and looked at Duan Shao with complicated eyes.

"If King Gao has any orders, you can tell the general directly, and the general will definitely go through fire and water."

Duan Shao cupped his hands and said.

Gao Huan nodded slightly, noncommittal, still thinking about how to deal with it.

Duan Rong said in the letter that it is the great plan of the country to destroy Er Zhurong in one go, and one should not raise troops due to anger and go south for revenge.Even if this battle is won, it is of little significance. Instead, the elite soldiers will be restrained to the front line of Jianghuai, which is not worth the loss.

Er Zhurong has always been a serious confidant, as long as he relaxes a little, he may make a comeback.

Therefore, Duan Rong resolutely opposed Gao Huan's use of troops against Liang Guo, especially to retaliate under the banner of avenging Gao Cheng and Dou Tai, and the gain outweighed the loss.

However, Duan Rong changed the subject in the letter, saying that if Gao Huan wanted to take revenge, it seemed like a good idea for a small group of elite soldiers to sneak in secretly and leave with one blow.He sent Duan Shao to Yecheng and let Gao Huan dispatch him at will.

After reading the letter, Gao Huan couldn't help admiring Duan Rong's sophistication. He said bad things, but he did good things, and he couldn't find fault anyway.If the army defeats the south in the future, it will not be Duan Rong's problem.

Even Duan Rong strongly opposed Gao Huan leading troops south, which made him hesitate for a while.If one person objects, it may be that person has bad vision, but now so many people object, it is enough to explain a lot of problems.

"Xiaoxian, what do you think of this matter?"

Gao Huan asked in a deep voice.

Duan Shao didn't speak, it seemed that it was difficult to make a choice, and he looked conflicted.

"Recently there have been many rumors in Ye City, saying that Liu Yishou, the high-ranking man, is a poisonous bird, and he must be eliminated quickly." Gao Huan sighed. He didn't know how these rumors came from, but it sounded good. People are very upset.

It seemed to be urging him to send troops south as soon as possible.

"King Gao, in the opinion of the last general, if you send troops to the south this time, you will probably be defeated in all likelihood."

After holding back for a long time, Duan Shao choked out such a sentence, which made Gao Huan stunned.He never expected that Duan Shao, who is usually "obedient and obedient", would not give him face so much!

"Before you set off to Yecheng, what did your father explain?"

Gao Huan asked with a worried expression.In fact, Duan Shao's words were not too much at all, but they were far below Gao Huan's expectations.

So make him very upset!

"Father confessed that everything should be obeyed by King Gao, and that one should not obey one's will."

Duan Shao replied truthfully.

Then you still say something to me?
Gao Huan asked angrily: "Since this is the case, then you still say that sending troops to the south will inevitably lead to defeat?"

"Going back to King Gao, it is your duty to obey King Gao's orders. It is also your duty to truthfully report the situation of King Gao's army. Even if King Gao asks ten or a hundred times again, the last general's answer is that it is not suitable to go south to fight this year."

Duan Shao cupped his hands and said to Gao Huan.

Well, this is an honest boy.Hearing what Duan Shao said, Gao Huan also lost his temper.

He sighed and shook his head, "Sometimes, wars are not only for fighting, but not for winning or losing at all. You still don't understand this truth, alas."

Gao Huan felt the pain of not being understood by the world.

As a leader, he wants to lead the team.Gao Cheng is the eldest son, and Dou Tai is the brother-in-law, both of whom are close to the circle.Since these people are all his confidants, Gao Huan can't act as if nothing happened.

Otherwise, who would take you seriously?Sending troops to avenge Gao Cheng is a political issue, not a military issue!

"Even if I ordered you to lead the troops to the south, you still think it's wrong to send troops, right?"

Gao Huan looked into Duan Shao's eyes and asked, his face extremely serious.

Duan Shao hesitated for a few seconds, and finally cupped his hands and said, "King Hui Gao, it is true."

This made Gao Huan really convinced Duan Shao.

"You go to the mansion in Ye City to rest first, don't go back to Jinzhou, I will call you anytime I need something."

Gao Huan waved his hand, feeling tired for no reason.

"Then I will retire."

Duan Shao saluted carefully, and then exited the study.

Gao Huan lowered his head in thought, feeling very worried about the condition of his eldest son Gao Cheng.

Now that midsummer is here, Gao Huan has already lifted Gao Cheng's confinement, but the prince has indeed restrained himself a little bit, at least there has been no conflict like the conflict with the suffering master.

Now that Gao Cheng had nothing to do, he sent people to watch the daughter of the Yuan family in Yecheng, but there was no movement for the time being, as if he was waiting for an opportunity.

He probably got his head around it, and felt that women from ordinary families didn't have much fun playing with them.Now the Wei State is still ruled by the Yuan Clan in name, Gao Cheng may think that the woman who insults the Yuan Clan will satisfy some emptiness in his heart, so he has made some small moves recently.

Gao Huan had a clear understanding of this and did not interfere in the slightest. It even made people feel that he was taking the opportunity to test some unspeakable things.

"Liu Taozhi, go and call the prince to me." Gao Huan said to Cangtou Liu Taozhi who was waiting outside the door.

In the Northern Wei Dynasty, Cangtou generally refers to the servant who leads the horse for the master and general, and is a confidant among confidants.Gao Huan saw that Liu Taozhi was an honest person, so he kept him by his side whenever he was called.

Liu Taozhi was also loyal to Gao Huan and helped Gao Huan do a lot of dirty work.

After a while, it rained heavily outside, and Gao Cheng came to Bafu's study in a mess. Gao Huan asked him to change into clean clothes, and the father and son sat and drank.

Seeing that Gao Huan remained silent, Gao Cheng asked cautiously, "Father asked the child to come here, what instruction do you have?"

"This time, I plan to send troops south to Xuanhu and other places, led by Duan Shao. Do you have anything to say?"

Gao Huan asked with a smile, but the smile seemed a bit forced.

"Great father, please let the child go with you!"

Gao Cheng said excitedly, grabbing Gao Huan's cuff, his face showed a perverted twist.

"Well, you are not afraid of hardships and dangers, and I am very comforted for my father. Do you have any thoughts about this battle?"

Gao Huan asked calmly.

Gao Cheng was taken aback for a moment, he really hadn't thought about what the battle would be like.

"Father, the Nanren's arrogance was arrogance last time when we dispatched troops and lost troops. If we can't extinguish this arrogance, if our army confronts the Liang army in the future, I'm afraid we will lose first in terms of arrogance."

Gao Cheng was quick-witted, and found a suitable reason after blurting it out.

Gao Huan still nodded with a smile, noncommittal, as if waiting for Gao Cheng to continue.

"Uh, the three armies are invincible. Father thinks this reason is not enough?"

Gao Cheng asked a little impatiently.

Disappointment flashed across Gao Huan's face, and then he smiled indifferently: "It's okay, you can study at ease these days. My father will avenge your revenge."

"Thank you father!"

Gao Cheng was overjoyed and directly knelt down and kowtowed three times to Gao Huan.Due to the heavy rain outside, Gao Cheng will stay in Bafu today and will not return to his "secret base".

After he left, Gao Huan kept looking at the heavy rain outside the window in a daze, his complexion changed several times, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
