Chapter 1049: East Becomes West (42)
"Otomo, your Guli was seriously injured this time, did you come to settle accounts with me?" Looking at He Dayou, who was saluting in front of him, Gao Yuan picked him up and said jokingly.
"It is the honor of my He family to serve the king, how dare I have other ideas!" He Dayou said in a low voice.
"Is it because Gu Li broke her appearance this time, you dislike her?"
"Even if Gu Li breaks her appearance, it is more than enough for me to be a cripple, where do you dare to have such a heart?"
"Well, since it's neither, what are you doing with a drooping face?" Gao Yuan smiled and asked, "I have asked Ke Yuanshan, although Gu Li is seriously injured, as long as he recuperates for a few months, there is no problem at all."
"Your Majesty, Commander Helan met me earlier and told me that Gu Li's identity is only afraid that there is a big problem, she, she may be ......" He Dayou raised his head and looked at Gao Yuan, his face was very ugly.
"It may be the daughter of the Xiongnu King, is it or not?" Gao Yuan sat down, picked up the tea bowl on the table, twisted the lid of the tea bowl with two fingers, and gently floated the foam on the tea.
"The king knows everything?" He Dayou's voice was three points quieter, and standing behind Gao Yuan, He Dayou's nephew He Weiyuan's face turned pale. The daughter of the King of the Huns, this identity is very important.
"I asked her!" Gao Yuan closed the bowl with a clang, and said: "Gu Li said that she is He Dayou's wife, Gu Li of Baiyang Village, and I can't remember the past."
"She, did she really say that?" He Dayou Huo Di raised his head, "You, don't you hold her accountable for concealment?"
"Look at your appearance, it's not that you dislike her, but I'm afraid that she will dump you!" Gao Yuan laughed, "The past is gone, now the Huns have been fully integrated into our Han country, you have also seen this war, the Huns for the Han Dynasty, it can be said that the losses are heavy, 40,000 people out of Jishi City, only half of them came back. They have already proven their loyalty to the Great Han, so Gu Li's identity is insignificant at all. What am I going to pursue?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your magnanimity!" After He Dayou became a member of parliament, he has grown a lot in politics, and he knows that if such a thing happens in any other country, he is afraid that he will come to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and it is the most refreshing to kill it cleanly.
"Gu Li's military talent is good, if she intends to join the army to become a female general in the future, are you willing to do it?" Gao Yuan smiled and asked: "If she goes to become a female general, you will be an out-and-out full-time dad, and you will have to take care of the two children."
He Dayou clenched his fists with both hands and slammed them to the ground, "My He family can contribute to the king, that is the blessing I have accumulated in my eight lifetimes, where will I be reluctant."
"That's good, that's good!" Gao Yuan said with a smile.
"Otomo, you are the most respected councilor in my Jishi County, in the future, our Jishi County will set up an office in Jicheng to communicate the council and the political hall, I intend to let you go to Jicheng to take this position, what do you think?" Wu Kai said with a smile on the side.
He Dayou was stunned at first, but immediately understood in his heart, "I am willing, willing."
"Well, very good, big friend, Wei Gao is now a cavalry commander of the Young Guards, this time they passed by here, you must have seen it, Wei Yuan, now he is by my side as the commander of the guards, after a while, I will also let him go out to serve, your He family, in the future, will be my Han family." Gao Yuan laughed.
He Dayou happily said goodbye and left, for the matter of letting him settle in Jicheng, not only did he not think that this was a distrust, but he thought that it should have been so, his identity as a woman was so sensitive, he could still be a general, and his family was not implicated in any way, such a generous king went to find it, and for himself, whether it was in Baiyang Village or Jicheng, in short, it was for the king to serve. In particular, Gao Yuan finally promised that he would take his two sons to the palace and be taught by him personally, which made him happy and one Buddha ascended to the ground, and the second Buddha entered the ground, which means that his son will be the disciple of the king in the future, in the words of the king, that is, winning at the starting line. It's a pity that I don't know where my ancestral grave is, otherwise I must go and put a few pillars of incense on the ground, but He Dayou is sure that even if I don't know my family's ancestral grave, the place where they are buried must be a treasure of feng shui, this is definitely the ancestral tomb of the family with green smoke!
Out of the county guard's mansion, He Dayou laughed all the way back to his apartment, after the seriously injured Gu Li was sent back to Jishi City by Ke Yuanshan, Tang He sent someone to take He Dayou and his two sons to Jishi City, nominally to take care of Gu Li, in fact, it also has the meaning of seizure, it depends on how Gao Yuan finally deals with this matter.
He Dayou was laughing, and at this time, under Dayan City, which was far away from Jishi City, there were people who wanted to cry without tears, and this person was Wang Xiao, who had been unlucky since a few years ago.
Li Xin attacked Jishi City, Wang Xiao led 50,000 troops deep into the Hetao, and attacked Dayan City, another important town of the Han Kingdom, and Dayan City was the location of the Liaodong Protectorate of the Han Kingdom.
The garrison of Dayan City is not much, only 3,000 people, subordinate to Sun Xiao's capital protection mansion, after the outbreak of the Great War, Sun Xiaofa urgently ordered the 10,000 garrisons of Kumamoto stationed in Donghu to be transferred back to Dayan City to assist in guarding.
However, the matter greatly surprised the two of them, and the Qin army's military campaign to attack Dayan City had not yet begun, and the news of Li Xin's defeat had already come.
For guarding Dayan City, Sun Xiao didn't have the slightest worry at all, now in Dayan City, although there are only more than 10,000 regular troops, for a big city like Dayan City, manpower is indeed a little insufficient, but Sun Xiao has recruited enough young people, most of the immigrants who dared to move to Dayan County back then are outlaws, and the guys who put their heads on their belts and dangle are all unknown in the previous country, and finally got here, with fields, cattle and sheep, houses, married a daughter-in-law, gave birth to a baby, and are planning to have a peaceful birthday. The Qin army is coming, and if you want to live a stable life, you have to beat the Qin people away, so these people's desire to fight is stronger than that of the regular army, and most of these guys are ignorant and fearless, and they don't understand the danger of war at all.
Second, Dayan City is a copy of Jishi City, and Sun Xiao, who has experienced the defense of Jishi City, has witnessed the strength of this kind of city in defense.
Third, now in Dayan City, there are many talents, Zhou Yuan, the former captain of Yan State, Tian Dan, the former minister of Qi State, plus the general Kumamoto, these people are all well-known figures, aside from Kumamoto, Zhou Yuan, Tian Dan's reputation is much stronger than Wang Xiao, with these people helping Sun Xiao come up with ideas, where is Sun Xiao afraid of the so-called famous general Wang Xiao? Tian Dan may not be able to contribute, but Zhou Yuan will definitely help him with his heart and lungs, his granddaughter is the daughter-in-law of the eldest prince of the Han Kingdom!
Sun Xiao completely threw the matter of defending the city to Kumamoto, anyway, there were two old men on the top to give advice, and there was Kumamoto, an old general, who was in command of the battle, and he would just do a good job of logistics for them. Commanding a large army to fight, Sun Xiao knew very well that it was not his forte, if it weren't for this, the king would not have transferred himself out of the army system back then.
Wang Xiao lives in the manor where Kumamoto lived on the shore of Dayan Lake, this manor has been expanded several times because all the people of the Zhou family have moved here, dozens of houses surround Zhou Yuan's residence in the center, like the stars holding the moon, Zhou Yuan is now living at ease, fishing at this time, all kinds of vegetables, excellent swimming, compared to Ning Zecheng who lost his head, he really felt that his luck was excellent, the troika of Yan Country back then, the only one who could die well or only him.
However, the current master Wang Xiao is in shape, just received the news that Li Xin was defeated, 100,000 troops were all wiped out, and was completely annihilated by Gao Yuan, when it was really burned inside, Li Xin's defeat represented that his back road had been cut off.
"Or maybe it's the retribution for slaughtering tens of thousands of Hun captives in one fell swoop at the Huolan Pass!" The white-haired Wang Xiao looked at his son Wang Jian and lamented, "God is destined to let me die on the grassland."
"Father, although the situation is extremely sinister, but it has not yet reached the end of the mountain, we still have an army of 50,000, Dayan City can't be defeated, let's not fight, let's pull the camp forward, go to the vanguard city, unify the ten thousand cities, go to the Liaodong Peninsula of the Donghu people, I don't believe that the Han State just took control of the Liaodong Peninsula not long ago, where the Donghu people ambushed and pasted, maybe there are still a lot of resistance forces, as long as our army arrives where, these people will definitely rise up, as long as the Liaodong Peninsula is in chaos, we have a chance." Wang Jiandao.
"Your idea is good, but we can't go!" Wang Xiao shook his head and said: "Scout report, the two cavalry corps of the Young Guards with a total of 20,000 cavalry are already on their way here, with their foot strength, it will only take half a month at most to reach Dayan City, and what about us, how long will it take to go to Pioneer City, how long will it take to unify Wancheng, and how long will it take to reach Donghu?" Can the grain and grass in the army last so long? These days, our army has been sweeping outside, and the grain we have found is a drop in the bucket, not to mention that we have to go to Liaodong, and we have to go through the Liao River, and the rainy season in the grassland is coming."
"Anyway, you have to give it a try." Wang Jian raised his head and said, "Or you can succeed, it's better than staying here and waiting for death. As soon as the Young Guards arrive, we'll be in for a long time."
Wang Xiao was silent for a long time, raised his head to look at his son, but his eyes suddenly became bright: "Naturally, you have to go, but it's not to go to Pioneer City, not to Tongwan City, not to go to the Liaodong Peninsula, but to another place!" (To be continued......)
