Chapter 13 Disposal (Part 2)(2/2)
Are you urging us to march? Is there a military order saying that if there is any disharmony, we can take it and deal with it on the spot? You said, isn't it natural for me and the old Yanmen troops to doubt you?"
Not only Gao Heng was speechless, but also the soldiers under Gao Heng also bowed their heads... No one was a fool. On that day, Xia Yu sent the head of his bodyguard and the troops directly under him, and the meaning of supervising the army was almost obvious.
Yes! Who can deny it?
"Go!" Lu Fan also lost interest when he saw this scene. "Sima believes that you are innocent, then you are innocent... I originally wanted to capture you, but now it seems that it is nonsense. I just ask you not to cause trouble.
, just follow most of them honestly. Of course, there is no need for you to walk with us all the way. When we enter the fortress in two days, you can directly take your subordinates back to Ningcheng, and we will go to Juyang on our own!"
After saying this, Lu Fan looked around and urged: "Quickly put out the torch and hurry up, don't cause any more trouble!"
Everyone seemed to have woken up from a dream and immediately dispersed. Gao Heng also stepped forward to pick up the sword as if lost, lowered his head and walked to the front of the team.
On the other side, the companion who went back to report bumped into Cheng Pu, Lou Gui and his party who were coming to pick him up.
After hearing the situation there, Gongsun Xun, who was already a little tired, asked Cheng Pu to return to the rear army, leaving only two soldiers and Lou Gui here, preparing to return to the central army.
The matter seemed to be over here, but after walking a few steps, Gongsun Xun, who was just about to close his eyes, suddenly heard someone asking a question in his ear.
"Sima, I would like to ask Sima, what will happen to Xia Yu this time?"
Gongsun Xun opened his eyes slightly and took a look, only to find that it was the accompaniment he had been impressed by before, so he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart: "Uncle Zi, tell him what you said."
"This is simple." Lou Gui, who was walking in front, explained directly without looking back: "Although I don't know the extent of the damage to Xia Yu's main force, it is impossible to win, so the first one to lose is
He cannot escape the crime; and this trip to the fortress was prompted by his letter. His Majesty and the nobles in the court will definitely want him to take responsibility for the entire bad situation; of course, he is a man of integrity after all.
With two thousand stones and a solid foundation, I guess... it’s nothing more than entering Luo by car, and then denouncing and demoting him!”
"That's it." The servant bowed his head respectfully and responded, and then looked seriously at Gongsun Xun who was squinting his eyes. "The servant dares to ask Sima one more question... This Xia Yu put Sima to death.
Do you have any resentment in your heart for forcing our troops to end up like this?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, little servant?" Before Gongsun Xun could react, Lou Gui in front immediately made a show of his face.
Gongsun Xun also turned his head and looked at the servant carefully: "What did you do originally and what crime did you commit?"
"I was originally a sergeant from Shangdang who was recruited into the army and served as a sergeant." The servant lowered his head and responded. "Then he committed the crime of murder. I killed Shangguan in the army! Military discipline is strict and there will be no amnesty!
"
Lou Gui couldn't help but turn around and look at this person.
"If someone in the army kills Shangguan and still survives, then it must be because of Paoze's help." Gongsun Xun continued to ask. "Why did you kill Shangguan?"
"I have a chief below me who is a local and his wife is very beautiful." The man's words were very simple and he did not make too many embellishments. "I was attracted by Qu Junhou above. That chief is strong and can't be beaten."
He refused and could not resist, so he and his wife committed suicide together. But I, being in the middle of the two, could neither stop nor endure it, so I killed Naqu Junhou."
"Then when you asked me just now, do you think you were comparing your feelings to others?" Gongsun Xun sighed slightly when he heard this. "Or maybe you have heard me talk a lot in my sleep these past two days?"
The man didn't answer in silence.
"That's right," Gongsun Xun looked at the stars above his head and suddenly said with a ferocious smile. "If hundreds of good men died in ordinary battles, I wouldn't say anything. But this battle is absurd from beginning to end. First, it was rushed.
The war started, then the generals were changed on the spot, and then the troops were forcibly divided... but it was just because of some people's selfishness?! Not to mention that I, Gongsun Wenqi, was a man himself, and he was forced to death many times by them in the past few days.
Escape! Your life and that of your subordinates are all in the hands of others... If you can't bear it, how can I bear it?"
The man still didn't answer, but Lou Gui couldn't help but look back.
"Actually, I won't hide it from you. I thought about it when we were south of the Junchou River that day." Gongsun Xun continued to sneer. "If we die in this battle, then of course everything doesn't matter, just think of me as unlucky!
But if I, Gongsun Xun, can come back alive, I will definitely regard Xia Yu as my life-and-death enemy and do something to show him how powerful he is!"
"Then I dare to ask Sima!" The companion finally spoke again. "In your eyes, is Gao Heng who caused trouble today a 'good man'?"
"If it doesn't count, why would I specifically tell you to save him?"
"Sima!" The companion finally spoke his mind. "This matter is not that simple."
"what for?"
"You regard Gao Heng as a 'good man' who lives and dies together, but you regard Xia Yu as an 'enemy of life and death'... But Gao Heng and Xia Yu are always one!" The companion frankly pointed out a key point.
"And what you have in mind, not to mention Lu Zuoli and the others, are well aware of it. It is just that Gao Heng, although he is irritable, is in it, and it has been pointed out today. How can he not know it now?"
Woolen cloth?"
"What on earth do you want to say? So what if he knows?"
"Sima, you just said it yourself, this person is an innocent person." The companion suddenly reined in the two bad horses and said seriously, "An innocent person, while receiving the grace of Sima's resurrection, he also receives the favor of Xia Yujian
However, Sima and Xia Yu will soon face a life-and-death conflict...how will he deal with himself?"
Gongsun Xun endured the sudden pain in his left shoulder. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly became alert: "You mean, he will kill himself?!"
The servant lowered his head and said nothing.
Gongsun Xun was immediately anxious and struggled to get off the hammock.
And Lou Gui quickly stepped forward to support him: "Young Master, why is this happening? I know you cherish your talents, but a person like this can't be used by you even if he has talents, right? After all, it was Xia Yu who plucked him out of the wilderness.
He is a private minister! If he leaves this grassland in two days, we will be enemies rather than friends!"
"Then we have to wait until we leave the grassland!" Gongsun Xun said angrily. "Hurry and help me down, and you... Lou Zibo, you and I go to the central army to stop Gao Xuanqing!"
Lou Gui had no choice but to take a deep look at the companion, and then went straight away.
However……
After struggling for a full quarter of an hour, behind a hill on the roadside, under several torches, Gongsun Xun could only sit down beside Gao Heng's body with the support of his attendants.
"I searched everywhere as soon as I arrived." Lou Gui quickly explained. "But according to the soldiers next to Gao Heng, he should have come directly as soon as the chaos over there ended...it was too late."
"Why is it like this?" Gongsun Xun sighed. "Why is it like this?"
"My lord, scholars are fierce and fierce. This person is indeed an innocent person. I was the one who made wild assumptions." As he said that, Lu Ziheng knelt down and offered the sword to him, as if to apologize. "My magnanimity is not worthy of being in charge.
Chinese Army...but I have something to say, I ridiculed him before, not because I had bad intentions, but because I really didn’t expect him to be so strong!"
"Why should I blame you?" Gongsun Xun pushed the knife back and said. "Even I didn't expect it, let alone you? Besides, your duty is neither a scribe nor a warrior, but my heart. When I am powerless,
Take charge of my duties from time to time...What you do is what I do, and you and I have to shoulder this matter together! And until I recover from my injury, you will still hold this sword for me."
Lu Fan then took back his dagger.
Gongsun Xun sat in front of the slope and lined up with the corpses. Looking at the growing number of wounded and disabled soldiers around him, as well as the many officers arriving, he felt increasingly unsatisfied, but he could only endure it: "Put Gao Heng's corpse aside."
Take it with you, wrap it in the hammock I had before, and bury it safely when you go back!"
"Sima!" Everyone was about to take action when someone suddenly reminded him. "Gao Heng is dead, who will lead his subordinates?"
Although this question is somewhat direct, it is unavoidable. Gongsun Xun looked around. Han Dang and Cheng Pu were not around. After all, Lou Gui was just a dog-headed military advisor. Wei Yue Chenglian was a little uneasy. For a moment, he really didn’t know.
How to deal with it... You know, if this position is replaced by a trash, there may be trouble.
However, at this moment, Gongsun Xun suddenly glanced at the tall companion: "What's your name?"
"Report to Sima." The man quickly bowed and saluted. "The servant's name is Gao Shun. He was born in a poor family and has no special name."
Gongsun Xun looked at this person for a long time, but he couldn't help but sigh: "Is it destiny to lose a high level and gain a high level? You have a serious character, this Gao Heng has a fierce character, but you are all still innocent...
Gao Heng's nickname is Xuanqing, so I will also give you a name, and call him Suqing! Gao Suqing, I'll leave Gao Xuanqing's old department to you. I hope you can appease everyone!"
Everyone around him changed his mind, but no one dared to say anything.
"Let's go!" Gongsun Xun tried to stand up, but still found that he was a little weak. It was only because Lu Fan and Lou Gui stepped forward to support him that he managed to stand up.
The surrounding soldiers did not dare to stay longer, and quickly carried Gao Heng's body to the hammock as ordered before. Gongsun Xun also rode a bad horse, and then Lu Fan supported it with his own hands. Lou Gui led the horse in front, and also swayed with him.
Heading east in the summer night.
"When we join the army and go into battle, we should not be afraid of life and death." At this time, Gongsun Xun finally told his two confidants the grievances he felt just now. "But if you die in battle, there is still a way to explain it. Such as Gao
A brave man like Heng was not killed by the Xianbei people, but because of some simple virtue, he died on the roadside for an unknown general, like a wild dog... Why? Just because he, Xia Yu, was worth two thousand stones?
I don’t know whether you two are convinced or not, but I am still not convinced! Zi Heng told me before that a man’s life cannot be manipulated by others, and I actually believe it. But that was just talking about myself, and today I know that not only
It’s me. The lives of innocent people should not be in the hands of that kind of waste! I, Gongsun Xun, swear here that when I return to the army this time, not only Xia Yu, but also those wastes in the court who are involved in this battle, can
If I kill one, I will not spare anyone!"
"Only the Lord can occupy the upper position, control the innocent people in the world, and punish the corrupt people!" Lu Fan, who was standing beside him, lowered his voice and tried his best to answer.
——————I am the dividing line of fatigue——————
"Gao Shun, courtesy name Suqing, was a member of the Shangdang... He was appointed as an accomplice in the army and was under the command of Taizu. He was seriously innocent and was acquired by Lu Fan, often as his arm. At the end of Xiping Dynasty, he conquered Xianbei and burned bombs.
Returning from Hanshan Mountain, there was rain on the road, and Taizu was seriously injured and found it difficult to do anything. At that time, Gao Xuanqing, a high-ranking official in the Bohai Sea, supported Xia Yu and was also in the army. Yu was worried that he would be defeated but Taizu was victorious.
The situation was extremely critical, so he obeyed Fan's order and left behind Taizu, until the rear army was safe. Taizu held his arm and gave him a sword to call Shun to help Lu Fan quell the chaos. Then he returned to the camp and raised his sword to calm the people. Fan also
Taking advantage of Taizu's majesty and virtue to accuse Xia Yu of being unethical, Xuanqing was so ashamed that he committed suicide and died. When dawn came, Taizu collected Heng's body and sighed again: "Heng is also an innocent person. Now he has lost a high balance and gained a high one."
Isn't it destiny to be Shun? He named Xuanqing, and you should be Suqing. Because of Shun's merits, he was given the title Suqing, and he was promoted to a military lord, and the entire battalion looked at him with suspicion!" - "Old Yan"
