At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 63

Gao Bufan asked Gao Shixiong brothers to send someone back to the city to communicate with Lao Tzu, but when night fell, their Lao Tzu also descended. His face was darker than that of Stove Lord. The two brothers Gao Shixiong were not afraid of anything outside. Their father, like a mouse seeing a cat, ducked his head and hid behind Gao Bufan, so cowardly that it made people want to laugh!
Gao Kaishan quickly said apologetically: "Don't be angry, Gao Yuanwai, my son has already negotiated with the two sons, if you don't agree, they have to take people away from the racecourse and go back to the city, and they will definitely not suffer any harm."

Gao Shiqing looked pale, and said politely: "Master Gao misunderstood, in fact, I don't object to this..."

"Father, do you agree?" Brother Gao Shixiong's drooping heads instantly popped up like rabbit ears, his face full of surprise.

Gao Shiqing just stared, and the two brothers immediately lowered their heads timidly.

Gao Shiqing coughed lightly and said: "I don't object to this, but these two bastards are reckless and have no sense of measure in doing things. I am worried that if they stay, they will miss a big deal."

Gao Shixiong bravely argued: "Father, we won't make any mistakes this time, just let us stay. Changqing is younger than us, so the master of Gaochang allowed him to go into battle and kill thieves."

"That's right, Changqing can kill thieves, so can we, father, don't underestimate the child!" Gao Shiheng echoed in a low voice.

Gao Shiqing's face darkened, and he reprimanded: "How can you two compare with other Changqing?"

As soon as Lao Tzu got angry, brothers Gao Shiheng immediately buried their heads even lower.Gao Bufan frowned and said, "Mr. Gao, does my nephew have something to say?"

Gao Shiqing nodded and said politely: "Your Excellency, it's okay to say."

"The little nephew boldly said it, just like the flowers that have been kept in the greenhouse all the time, no matter how bright they grow, they will not be able to withstand the baptism of wind and frost after all; the young eagles are always protected under their wings, when will they become soaring? Eagle?
Shixiong and Shiheng are already very good at martial arts, but without going through actual combat with real swords and guns, it is also difficult to become a master. This is just a good opportunity to sharpen them. Why don't Gao Yuanwai let them try?
The wind and frost will come one day, and the storm will come as expected. Does Gao Yuanwai want Shixiong and Shiheng to become delicate flowers and tender grass withered, or green pines standing proudly and proudly?Do you want them to be weak birds with broken wings in the storm, or eagles flying proudly in the sky?Just let go when it's time to let go, your wings won't be able to protect them forever! "

Gao Shiqing was slightly moved when he heard the words, but the Gao Shixiong brothers couldn't help standing up straight, raised their heads, and bravely looked at Lao Tzu whom they had always been in awe of.

Gao Shiqing's expression was a bit complicated, because the two sons were naughty since they were young, and they especially liked to dance with knives and sticks. In order to prevent the two from growing up lawless, he usually disciplined them very strictly, so that these two sons of bastards saw him It's like a mouse seeing a cat, so this is the first time the two sons have looked at him so directly, and there is clearly light in their eyes.

"The bastards have really grown up and become more courageous. Maybe I really should let them go." Gao Shiqing sighed inwardly, and said with a smile: "What Chang Qing said is very insightful and thought-provoking. Master Gao taught well, it really makes me feel ashamed!"

Gao Kaishan hurriedly said: "Mr. Gao's foreign language is serious!"

The brothers Gao Shixiong looked at each other happily, and excitedly pressed Gao Bufan's shoulders, the boss is indeed the boss, not only can fight, but also speak well!
"Father, do you mean that you agree with my elder brother and I to stay and kill the thief?" Gao Shiheng asked in a low voice.

Gao Shiqing snorted coldly: "If you like to stay, you can stay, I don't care. Also, you speak so softly, is it because you haven't eaten? It's embarrassing for me."

Although the brothers Gao Shixiong had been scolded, they smiled happily and patted their stomachs and said in unison: "We ate, we are full!"

goo goo goo...

Someone's stomach suddenly gurgled in protest, everyone's eyes fell on Gao Shiqing at the same time, and the latter coughed in embarrassment. It turned out that he rushed to the racecourse immediately after receiving the news brought by his servants. Now Haven't had dinner yet.

Gao Bufan said with a smile: "Housekeeper Xia, tell the kitchen to prepare meals. Dad and I will have a drink with Gao."

Gao Shiqing waved his hand and said, "No hurry, I'm not very hungry yet... Gulu Gulu!"

Before Gao Shiqing could finish his sentence, his stomach let out a louder protest. Brother Gao Shixiong wanted to laugh but dared not.

Gao Shiqing glared at his two sons with a blushing face, then changed the subject and said, "Changqing, how many troops did Li Jing, the driving officer, lead, and when will they arrive?"

Gao Bufan answered truthfully: "Li Jing has a thousand elite soldiers under his command, and they will arrive before noon tomorrow."

Gao Shiqing frowned and said: "I heard that this Li Jing has the task of escorting the soldiers. Even if he sends troops, the number of troops should be less than [-]. After all, someone has to stay behind."

Gao Bufan nodded and said: "That's true, but soldiers are more expensive than many. Zhang Jin said that although there are many thieves under his command, they are all mobs. It only takes a few hundred elite soldiers to surprise the rear army. It’s bound to fall apart quickly.”

Gao Shiqing shook his head and said: "I don't understand military affairs, but I still understand the principle of a large number of people, nephew, don't take it lightly, well, this time I also brought five hundred strong men, and I will arrive later , it must be able to help Master Gao and nephew."

Gao Bufan was overjoyed when he heard the words, and blurted out: "Could it be that the patriarch agreed?"

Gao Shiqing smiled and nodded: "When Shixiong sent someone back to the city to explain the situation to me, I immediately went to Shihong to discuss it. He also felt that he could give it a go, so he immediately called people and got 500 people. They are the disciples and servants of the Gao clan in Bohai, led by me to support the racecourse, my horse is fast, so get there first, and the others will arrive later."

Gao Bufan was surprised and delighted, so he underestimated the patriarch Gao Shihong. It seems that his refusal to second people was not because of cowardice and lack of courage, but because he thought there was no chance of winning. Now that he has foreign aid, he immediately made a decision The gathering of manpower, and the gathering of 500 people in such a short period of time, shows that the Gao clan is quite united. As long as the patriarch gives an order, an army of hundreds of people can be pulled up immediately. Niubi!

Gao Kaishan bowed deeply to Gao Shihong and said: "Thank you Gao Yuanwai and the patriarch for your great help, Kaishan is very grateful!"

Gao Shiqing hastily stepped aside slightly, and said solemnly: "Master Gao doesn't have to be like this. Our Bohai Gao family is of the same spirit, and it is only natural to watch and help each other. If there are other changes in the clan in the future, Master Gao will also need to come out." Participate."

"It should be so, it is my duty!" Gao Kaishan nodded and said in a deep voice.

Soon, the food was ready in the kitchen. Gao Bufan and his son accompanied Gao Shiqing to finish the meal, and the follow-up support team arrived as expected. Five hundred children of the Gao clan walked across the suspension bridge in high spirits, and everyone carried weapons. , although they are not uniform, they are all made of iron, and there is absolutely no problem in killing people!
After Gao Bufan's spirit was lifted, he finally had a deeper understanding of the energy of the gentry. He wanted people and weapons, so it was no wonder that even the emperor was a bit afraid, and with the support of the gentry, it was often easier to win the world!

Now everything is ready, just waiting for Li Jing's regular army to arrive, I hope nothing goes wrong.
