Chapter 040: There Must Be Hidden Secrets (Part II)
Gao Shishi was slightly stunned, and after thinking about it, he realized that what she said was that after she was taken captive, Liu Wei came to save people, but she was unmoved by Cao Gan's threat.
In fact, Liu Wei was cautious about this, and he did deceive Cao Gan, so Gao Pragmatic explained to him: "He didn't know me originally, even if it was like this, it was human nature, not to mention that he did it at that time, in fact, he was planning to do it, and he did deceive Cao Gan, and he almost rescued me." ”
Tingqin pursed her lips: "Wasn't it almost rescued?" ”
Gao Pragmatic smiled helplessly, too lazy to entangle this matter with the two little girls, but continued: "Second, Cao Gan can pull out a crowd of hundreds of horse thieves near Gyeonggi, and there must be a hidden secret in it - either Cao Gan has outstanding ability, or there is someone above him to protect him. ”
"Someone is covering?" Yueyue's eyes widened: "The eldest young master is saying that someone in the government is shielding the horse thief?" ”
Gao Pragmatic didn't want to say too much about this matter, and said in a slight mutter: "It's just that there is such a possibility, which may not be true - I have already told General Liu about this matter, just ask him to watch it himself, and we don't have to think about it." ”
At this time, it happened that Gao Xiaozhuang and Gao Mo arrived, and the two of them reported outside, and Gao Pragmatic didn't have any arrogance, and directly let them come in to talk.
As soon as Gao Xiaozhuang came in, he first asked for the guilt, and reviewed that he was excited when he first went into battle, patronizing the fight and killing, but he did not guard the eldest young master, which led to the abduction of the eldest young master, and the crime deserved to die.
Gao pragmatic waved his hand: "You were sent out by me, the crime is not on you, don't think so much." Besides, judging from the situation at that time, Cao Gan made a quick move, and if you were by my side, most of the time I would not have time to do anything. ”
Gao Xiaozhuang's expression was a little gloomy, but he couldn't say anything.
Gao Mo heard this, but he looked a little speechless. Gao Pragmatic has always been good at observing words and feelings, and when he saw this, he said: "Gao Mo, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, you were assigned six rooms by my uncle, and now you are sent by my mother to work under me, and now you should be considered my person." Gao Mo, I trust you completely, so I hope you can treat me the same as my uncle, there is one to say one, there is two to say, I believe you can also see that although I am young, I am not confused. ”
"The eldest young master is serious, how dare the villain question the Lord." Gao Mo hurriedly bowed, hugged his fists and said: "Since yesterday's incident, the villain has been thinking about it, and there is always one thing in his heart that is very difficult, and he doesn't know whether to talk about it or not." ”
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Gao pragmatic without hesitation.
Gao Mo seemed to be thinking about something, and pondered for a while before he spoke: "Yesterday, the horse thief leader Cao Gan, his martial arts seem to be ...... There are marks that have been polished in the army for many years. ”
Gao Shishi's face was solemn, he sat up straight, and stared at Gao Mo's eyes: "What do you mean?" You mean, he used to be a soldier? ”
"The villain does have such suspicions." Gao Mo frowned: "This person seems to be bold and reckless, he dares to chase and kill the important generals of the imperial court, but he is quite cautious when facing the enemy, he found that the young general of the Liu family is extremely brave, so he refuses to step forward easily, but secretly looks for an opportunity to attack the eldest young master...... And once he makes a move, he will not hesitate, even if the villain has the intention of abolishing his mount, but as the head of the horse thief, he still fights for the mount, and he must take down the eldest young master, the eldest young master, this style of doing things is not what ordinary horse thieves should have. ”
Gao Pragmatic frowned, thought for a while, and said: "This suspicion can't be said to be unreasonable, but it is not sufficient, what if this is just a display of his personal character?" Maybe he was such a person who didn't move and moved like thunder? ”
"If you don't move, it's just that, moving like thunder, this itself is what people in the army are used to, isn't this how General Liu's father and son suddenly killed?" Gao Mo still insisted on his opinion, and added: "What's more, the villain also said that his martial arts are not ordinary routines, but have a strong military imprint." ”
"How?" Gao Pragmatic doesn't understand martial arts, and the "martial arts" in his mind are basically things like the eighteen palms of the dragon, which obviously has nothing to do with the actual situation at the moment. He had seen Liu Ling's majesty on the battlefield, but he hadn't seen him reimburse more than a dozen people on the spot as soon as he made a move, right? He still kills people with a knife, punches or kicks, how can it be so exaggerated in martial arts novels.
Gao Mo explained: "The martial arts routines in the rivers and lakes generally tend to be delicate moves and flexible footwork, which is longer than one-on-one, but at the same time, whether it is attacking or defending, they emphasize their own safety, usually on the premise of ensuring their own absolute safety; The military style of martial arts is different, the moves are generally biased towards strong attacks, and the style of shooting is also more aggressive, paying attention to one move to defeat the enemy, and there can be no superfluous tricks - this is a fatal weakness on the battlefield. And because when the two armies fought, most of them wore armor, so they didn't pay so much attention to dodging, and usually even if they dodged, it was just to avoid being injured and vital - you can see that Major General Liu Jia's shot yesterday knew that he didn't have an enemy under his command at all, which is of course his superb martial arts and invincible performance, but it is also due to the martial arts style in the army. ”
Gao pragmatically nodded thoughtfully, but did not immediately comment.
Gao Mo was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, so he gestured and added: "That Cao Ganruo is really just a simple reckless person, when the villain shot the horse yesterday, his first reaction should be to slash the hand of the knife at the villain, so as to force the villain to change his tricks and retreat." But he didn't want to think about it, and directly abandoned the Ma Na people, the young master, in the face of this kind of critical moment, no matter who would react with the reaction he was most accustomed to, and he would not and would not have time to think about how to cover himself. ”
Gao Pragmatic finally nodded this time in approval, but he was more cautious in his words: "In other words, do you think this person is from the army, not Xiangma?" So what is his inheritance in Baili Gorge? ”
Gao Mo shook his head and said: "The villain just said that this person should be born in the military, or at least he has been in the army for many years, but he didn't say that he must still be in the army, there are many deserters in these years, and he may be one of them......"
Gao Pragmatic stretched out his hand to stop Gao Mo from taking the next words, and while thinking, he muttered: "You wait, I'll synthesize a few clues first: first, Cao Gan may have been born in the military; secondly, there were hundreds of people in Baili Gorge, but they were able to move around Gyeonggi, where the army was gathered, without being exterminated; Again, Cao Gan dared to launch a large-scale campaign to hunt down and kill the important generals of the imperial court......"
Gao Shishi's face sank, there could not be so many coincidences, there must be hidden secrets in this.
