Bian Lingcheng got off his horse and almost ran towards the gate, but the sound of crossbow arrows breaking through the air sounded sharply, so frightened that he fell to the ground and didn't dare to get up.

"No one is allowed to enter or leave the barracks until sunrise for emergency military affairs. ”

The two crossbow arrows were considered a warning, and Bian Lingcheng knew that if he dared to approach again, these soldiers would really dare to shoot him with heavy crossbows. However, now he is in a hurry to ask Gao Xianzhi for help, if he waits until dawn, and he doesn't know how many variables will happen, he can only hold back the anger in his heart and beg softly:

"I am the commander of the army, if the general in the camp does not believe it, there is a seal here as proof, and you can present it to the general. ”

Only a cold voice answered him in the darkness.

"I can't afford to be a general, it's just a small brigade rate, and the discipline of the high-ranking public army is very strict, if your Excellency has something urgent, I can pass on the word of mouth. ”

In fact, most of the soldiers in the barracks are Ge Shuhan's Hexi veterans, they don't have much hatred for Bian Lingcheng, but more likely to despise it. It's just that it has been said before that the barracks are not allowed to enter and leave arbitrarily before sunrise, so they only promise to pass on the message.

Even so, Bian Lingcheng also thanked him repeatedly, and then let the brigade lead the way from generation to generation, Yu Chaoen wanted to harm himself, but he was afraid that he would not escape, so please save his life

The most hated thing by the old army of Hexi is Yu Chaoen, that eunuch is in the heavy army of the old army of Hexi, and he easily killed Ge Shuhan, which is true that there are various factors, but they have already determined that Yu Chaoen is an enemy who is not a common enemy.

And the captains and brigades of the battalions trapped in the battalion that day fell by because they stood by and watched, and their prestige among the old army in Hexi plummeted. If it weren't for Gao Xianzhi's performance of duties and the timely healing of the rift between the soldiers, I am afraid that the mutiny might not be impossible.

It is precisely because of this that Gao Xianzhi lives in the military camp every day, and never lives in Tongguan Guancheng, he knows that the old army of Hexi is the backbone of the entire Tongguan 200,000 army, although there are only about 20,000 people, but if they are lost, I am afraid that the 200,000 army can only be like a chicken, tile and dog.

For the embarrassment of having no soldiers available under his command, Gao Xianzhi had a deep understanding of it last year, Feng Er led 100,000 newly recruited soldiers, and was actually wiped out by the little-known Cui Qianyou in Luoyang. And the 200,000 people he led were also vulnerable, and even in Hongnong, he had the defeat of being annihilated by 50,000 people overnight, and he had to burn down the Taiyuan warehouse that had been accumulated for a hundred years with a fire.

These things have been untouchable sore spots in Gao Xianzhi's heart until now.

When the Yuanmen Brigade brought Bian Lingcheng's oral message, Gao Xianzhi was worried about the defense of Tongguan, and Ge Shuhan stayed in Tongguan for half a year.

When Shitong Pass was not the Hangu Pass in the Qin and Han dynasties, one husband could reach 100,000 elites. Tongguan is only a pass built in the south of the big river, although there are mountains to the south, but a large area can be passed by people and animals.

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty built many subordinate cities around Tongguan. The root of the problem lies in these attached castles. After nearly 50 years of Kaiyuan Tianbao, the slack of armament has reached an outrageous point.

Even if Ge Shuhan has horns on his head and three heads and six arms, it is difficult for him to restore his old appearance in just half a year.

Thanks to Ge Shuhan's skill, the resistance between them has been cleaned up, after Gao Xianzhi takes over, he only needs to follow the step-by-step process, and he can gradually improve the armament of Tongguan, and at that time, even if it is difficult to fight back, there will be absolutely no problem in resisting the rebels for three or two years.

"Bian Lingcheng begging to see him?

The Yuanmen Brigade was very contemptuous of Bian Lingcheng between his words, and Gao Xianzhi was only unaware, but Bian Lingcheng has always been cunning, if it wasn't for the last resort, he would never have surrendered his identity overnight.

Gao Xianzhi thought for a while, he should meet him in public and private, after all, they had worked together in Anxi for many years, although this person was insatiable, he finally didn't do anything bad. There was a disagreement between the two in the Guannei, but with Gao Xianzhi's mind, he didn't really take it to heart. Moreover, Bian Lingcheng is now the supervisor of the Tongguan army, and he asks to see him overnight if he has something fatal, if he refuses to see him, in case he spoils his business, it will be undesirable.

"Please!"

Yuanmen Lulu swallowed his saliva and said a little unwillingly.

"Gao Xianggong, the rules in the army ......"

Gao Xianzhi waved his hand.

"The old man knows that you are not allowed to enter and leave after sunset, but General Bian is the supervisor of the army, in case of a major incident, you can afford it?"

Hearing this, the Yuanmen Brigade immediately closed his mouth honestly, how could his own mere brigade rate bear the responsibility of 200,000 troops.

After the tea effort, Bian Lingcheng stepped into the military tent with his front foot, and threw himself at Gao Xianzhi's feet, as if kneeling, his hands tightly grasped Gao Xianzhi's thick calves, crying and crying.

This formation also frightened Gao Xianzhi, no matter how he supported him, he just couldn't kneel. In desperation, after he retired from the idle people in the tent, he asked:

"Why is the general like this?

Bian Lingcheng hadn't gotten Gao Xianzhi's assurance yet, so he couldn't get up easily, and he still cried.

"Ling Cheng's life is on hold, please think of the side by side in the past, no matter what, I have to help!"

Gao Xianzhi's heart jumped suddenly, he could scare Bian Lingcheng so depressed, it must have something to do with Chang'an, I'm afraid this person got some unknown news tonight.

"Get up and speak, Gao can only guarantee that he will do his best on the premise of not doing bad business. ”

Bian Lingcheng wiped a handful of snot and tears on his face, and said hurriedly: "It's not bad, it's not bad, it's definitely not bad." If Bian dies, how can it be good for the imperial court?"

Gao Xianzhi secretly thought, if Bian Lingcheng is also dead, the impact on the Tongguan army is indeed very serious, and within a few days, the commander and the supervisor army were all killed, which is definitely a harbinger of defeat in all dynasties.

"General, please tell me the reason, Gao will do his best!"

Looking at Bian Lingcheng's pitiful appearance, Gao Xianzhi did not have compassion, but more of a burst of emotion. The mighty prison army of the past who fought and harmed the powerful ministers was like a lost dog, which was really hateful and hateful. In fact, Gao Xianzhi himself was harmed by the struggle of the powerful ministers, so he could empathize with it tonight.

Where did Bian Lingcheng know what Gao Xianzhi was thinking now, and thought that his pitiful attitude had moved Gao Xianzhi, and successfully made him think of his old friendship, and there was a burst of joy in his heart, it seemed that Gao Xianzhi did not know exactly that he had carried a fateful edict and took his life.

So, Bian Lingcheng 1510 told Yu Chaoen that he had been ordered to take his life.

Gao Xianzhi was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't imagine that Bian Lingcheng, who was deeply favored by the Son of Heaven, would actually be rejected by the Son of Heaven one day. He knew that it must be because of the rebellion of the fugitives. At the beginning, he was very worried about this matter, and he didn't want to really make a mess, so Bian Lingcheng became a turtle with a shrunken head.

"The Son of Heaven's destiny is thicker than the heavens and the earth, how can Gao help you?"

Let Gao Xianzhi resist the edict of the Son of Heaven for the sake of Bian Lingcheng, this is simply a fool's dream.

Of course, Bian Lingcheng didn't expect Gao Xianzhi to take advantage of him, but had other plans.

"How can Ling Cheng let Xiang Gong disobey the holy order? However, it is just to delay Ling Cheng for some time, so that he can tell the grievances directly to the heavens and smash Yu Chaoen's treacherous scheme!"

Gao Xianzhi nodded, if it was just to delay time, it would not be impossible, anyway, everything would eventually be judged by the Son of Heaven.

"Okay, the old man will do his best. ”

Finally got Gao Xianzhi's promise to help, Bian Lingcheng burst into tears and laughed, and threw himself on the ground and kowtowed three times in a row.

"The grace of saving the life of the minister, Ling Cheng, Ling Cheng will never forget. ”

Gao Xianzhi's complexion had returned to normal, and seeing Bian Lingcheng behaving like this, he only highlighted one sentence.

"The old man is also doing his best, and the angel's journey will take a lot of time, whether the general can get out of trouble or not, it will be up to the mandate of heaven!"

While he was talking, a guard suddenly came in a hurry, and when he saw Bian Lingcheng present, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Gao Xianzhi said, "It's okay, but there is urgent military affairs?"

"Reporting to the public, the leading horse team of the Guanjun Rong envoy arrived, and the Guanjun Rong envoy arrived at Tongguan about an hour later. ”

Bian Lingcheng gasped, this guy moved so fast, and immediately realized that Yu Chaoen was in such a hurry, he must be in a hurry to kill himself. He was shocked and hated, and he couldn't imagine that he was cornered by a little yellow door. When he thought of Yu Chaoen's trembling virtue in front of him, the more hatred swelled up, and he secretly swore that after turning over one day, he would make this thief regret his deeds today.

"Xianggong save Ling Cheng!"

Bian Lingcheng cried again, but this time there was more fear in his crying.

Gao Xianzhi shook his head secretly, he always thought that Yu Chaoen would rush to travel from Chang'an to Tongguan for two days. There was enough time for Bian Lingcheng to cry out to the Son of Heaven. But now, what reason is there to hold Yu Chaoen back for two days?

Moreover, Yu Chaoen is by no means a weak and deceitful person, and this matter is so difficult that it is almost impossible to achieve.

He sighed.

"As soon as the angel arrives, everything is over, and the old man can block Yu Chaoen from the city until sunrise, and the general will flee for his life!"

Yu Chaoen was in such a hurry, Gao Xianzhi had already realized that maybe it was Yu Chaoen himself, maybe it was the Son of Heaven himself, he would want to put Bian Lingcheng to death, and Bian Lingcheng's hope of turning over was extremely slim.

But Bian Lingcheng muttered in a sharp voice: "Escape? Once you escape, there will be no day to turn over, no, never run for your life......"

Then, Bian Lingcheng went crazy and laughed loudly, and after laughing, he whined and cried again, such a gaffe, obviously not a show.

Time was urgent, Bian Lingcheng hurriedly returned to Tongguan, and he couldn't stay in the barracks and be caught by Yu Chaoen.
