Chapter 5: The Purple Robe (Nine Upper)

“...... He said, he said, let the general think about where his wealth comes from before letting him do things?! More than ten days later, Geshuale finally rushed to the camp of the Hexi Jiedu envoy, lay in front of Geshuhan, and wept to report the details of the failure of the mission.

"What did you say??" Ge Shuhan's face turned pale, and he reached out to press the handle of the knife on his waist. Seeing this, Alep quickly climbed a few steps forward, and howled in a hoarse voice: "I didn't say it, I didn't say it. Big brother, big brother, it's the surname Zhou. I'm just paraphrasing, just paraphrasing! ”

"You shameful!" Ge Shuhan couldn't wait to split his clan brother into two pieces with one sword, and gritted his teeth several times in succession before he could barely suppress the anger in his heart a little. "He, what else did he say. You, tell me a word! ”

"He, he ......" Geshu Alle was afraid and tired, because he had been walking for a long time without sleep, and his voice was as hoarse as the wind blew through a gong, "The surname Zhou also said, and said, don't think that all the dirty things you do are seamless. They, they all see it clearly. He, he also said, and said that if there is no Datang, you are old, and your old man is not even a fart! ”

After that, he secretly looked at Ge Shuhan's face and continued to cry on the ground, "It's really not what I said, I'm just relaying it." I, I didn't say anything! ”

"This, this guy. I, I'll kill him! Ge Shuhan stood up, waved his horizontal knife, and slashed at his handsome case. only heard the sound of "dang chang", and the thick and luxurious Nanmu Shuai case was cut into more than half a foot deep, and the horizontal knife was also broken into two. Half of it was still in his hand, and half flew out, skimming the corners of the eyes of several cronies and generals, and scared the other party to stand on end.

"Damn it!" With nowhere to vent his anger, Ge Shuhan raised his leg and kicked Shuai to the ground. Then he held the half-cut horizontal knife in his hand, and swept left and right with round eyes. The guards knew his habits and stayed away. Only his distant cousin of the same clan, Geshual, who was kneeling on the ground, had nowhere to hide, crying and defending himself, "Big brother is angry, big brother is angry!" I, I've done my best. I didn't recruit anything, I didn't recruit anything! ”

"Do you still use tricks?" Ge Shuhan deflected the blade that was raised high and slashed at the clan brother's arm, cutting a small wound an inch deep, "Why didn't you die at that time!" Get out of here, and don't let me see you again! ”

"Big brother is angry, ah!" Goshuale was so frightened that he screamed and fell. Finding that he was not hacked to death, he quickly crawled out with his hands and feet.

"You foodie. Hurry up and die! Ge Shuhan threw out half of the blade and smashed it on the heel of his brother, startling the other party again. It can only be like this, no matter how sinful the other party is, after all, he is a member of the Geshu tribe. As a last resort, he was unwilling to spill the blood of his brothers.

can be humiliated by a small Yunlu general under Feng Changqing's account, this breath is really difficult to swallow. Panting and pacing in the Chinese military tent for a few circles, the anger in Ge Shuhan's heart finally became a little less, he stopped, and said in a deep voice: "You guys, did you hear it clearly just now?" ”

"Hear me clearly!" "The surname Zhou is too deceitful!" "We can't just finish this matter!" Huoba Guiren, Absi, Zuo Che, Hun Weiming and other henchmen and generals of Ge Shuhan looked at each other and responded with nonsense.

"Of course it can't be done like this!" Ge Shuhan added angrily, "I need a few of you to help me get an idea, what should we do next?!" ”

'What to do?' Everyone looked at each other, but they could only smile bitterly. At the beginning, in order to repay Yang Guozhong's favor, Ge Shuhan sent his subordinates to intercept and kill the Flying Dragon Guard, but everyone knew that this move was not very appropriate, but no one said anything to stop it. After all, the other party is just a small captain, and if he dies, he will die, whether he kills it openly or secretly, for a knotty envoy like Ge Shuhan, who has a heavy army, it is almost like crushing a small ant to death.

However, no one expected that a seemingly inconsequential matter would now turn into such a big storm! What to do? What else can I do? Fight a royal lawsuit with the Anxi Army? Hexi's side definitely doesn't make any sense! Even if Yang Guozhong helps in the court, he may not be able to get any 'justice'. After all, there is no light in the matter. Moreover, the next few battles took place within the jurisdiction of the Anxi army, and Geshuhan sent his henchmen to the past, and violated the customary rule that the soldiers and horses should not communicate with each other.

"What's the matter, they're all dumb! Pretend to be dumb when you encounter something, what am I raising you for? After waiting for a long time, he couldn't hear everyone's response, so Ge Shuhan kicked the handsome case who had fallen to the ground again, and shouted and asked.

This time, everyone didn't dare to remain silent any longer. Ge Shu's handsome temperament is wide on the outside and strong on the inside, once he is hated, I don't know when he will be unlucky. After greeting each other a few more times, Huo Ba Guiren, who had the highest position, stepped forward half a step forward and whispered: "Since the guy surnamed Zhou insulted us so much, why should we swallow our anger." The big marshal simply ordered troops to fight over and give the cripple some color to see! ”

"Yes, directly lead the troops to fight over and teach the cripple a lesson. See what His Majesty the Emperor can do to us? "The governor of Shazhou fell Sitai and was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, so he followed behind Huoba Guiren, the governor of Huoba Prefecture, and danced his claws.

This kind of words is almost equivalent to persuading Brother Shuhan to rebel, and Lu Jiong, the loyal general standing a little farther away, frowned and let out a light cough. He is also a general raised by Ge Shuhan, but because he has no Turkic blood, he will never be able to go to the circle of the other party's cronies. But for Ge Shuhan's kindness, I am still very grateful in my heart.

Ge Shuhan turned his head and glared at Lu Jiong angrily. found that there was no fear on the other party's face, but raised his head, smiled and met his gaze, his eyes full of expectation.

Suddenly, Geshuhan felt his heart beat. The burning fury fades quickly. If you really want to have a fight with the Anxi army, do you have any confidence that you will win? What should I do if the court investigates it later? Can there really be a rebellion? Regardless of the fact that the soldiers under his command may not be willing to follow, even if Han generals like the loyal general Lu Jiong also obey their orders, who will they work hard for in the end?

'Without Datang, your old man is not even a fart!' In an instant, the words of the clan brother echoed in Ge Shuhan's ears again. It cleared his mind more and more. According to Turkic tradition, only people of the Ashina family can be the Great Khan of all Turkic people. Although Geshu is living a prosperous life now, his status in the clan was not in the top ten. In terms of bloodline, both of them are much closer to the Ashina family than themselves. In particular, Huoba Guiren is the grandson of the Later Turkic Khan Ashinamo, which can be described as a famous blood.

If you rebel in anger. Ge Shuhan narrowed his eyes, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. I'm afraid that even if I can catch the court off guard, in the end, the golden crown of the Turkic Khan will not be able to wear it on my head! Thinking of this, his mentality became more and more calm, and he gave a meaningful glance at the loyal general Lu Jiong, and then, meaningfully, he glanced at Huo Ba Guiren and Zhu Sitai and the others who were rubbing their fists and palms, shook their heads, and said in a low voice: "This breath must be retrieved from Feng Changqing's head." But you must not live up to the trust of the court because of personal grudges. If you think about it, what could be better? ”

"This ......" Huo Ba Gui Ren and Ah Tai shrugged their shoulders and silently retreated to where they should stand. Just now, the two of them did have the idea of roasting Ge Shuhan on the fire, but they didn't expect the other party to refuse to be fooled. Since his brother Shuhan himself acquiesced, he wouldn't be a fart if he left Datang, what did everyone do for him? I'm just waiting to see the excitement!

Seeing the actions of the two of them, Ge Shuhan sighed secretly in his heart. This is his kindred, who always treats others as fools and himself as the smartest man in the world. Always looking for happiness in each other's pouring, but not knowing that they will step their own people into the mire, in fact, they are also looked down upon. I knew this was the case, why did I work so hard to promote them in the first place? It is better to keep the arrangement of General Wang Zhonghei of the previous section as it is, at least, it will not make the Hexi army like now, like a plate of scattered sand.

It's all the trouble he got himself. Always in a hurry to prove that he is better than his predecessor, the result is that his former colleagues have left one after another. always believed that his own people were more loyal and brave than other generals, but as a result, the combat effectiveness of Hexi's soldiers and horses deteriorated. I always think that I have the wisdom to know people, and those guys who are promoted don't know how to be grateful at all.

There was a cold and cold feeling, which gradually surged into Ge Shuhan's heart, extinguishing the previous anger, but making him feel more and more depressed and painful. Huo Tu Gui Ren was picked up by him, and he also pulled it up with one hand. If it weren't for his strong recommendation, Absi would have let people release horses on the shore of Juyan Sea at this moment, and Hun Weiming, at best, would be a general from the fifth grade, or the kind that led the team to rush to the front line and block the arrow rain for the main force. They should be of the same mind as themselves, and they should lose both and prosper. But in fact, each of them has a separate ledger hidden in their stomachs!

There is also Gao Shi Gaofu, the most hateful thing is this guy. He directly promoted him from an unambitious county lieutenant to the secretary of the shogunate. I thought that I could use his writing to open my eyes for myself, so as not to win a big battle, and I was insulted by those blind readers, saying that "you can't learn from Ge Shu, run rampant in Qinghai at night with a knife, and take a purple robe from the West Tushi Fort". Unexpectedly, after this person arrived in Hexi, he didn't write a single poem to defend himself, but he always destroyed his own good deeds. This time, if he hadn't intervened in it, Gu Litu might have cleaned up the captain surnamed Wang a long time ago, and it wouldn't have led to a series of troubles at all! (Note 1)

Thinking of this, Ge Shuhan threw a punch and hit the vermilion lacquer pillar beside him heavily, "Come on, go, let Gao Dafu come to see me quickly." Hun Weiming, you go with the two cars on the left. Bring your own soldiers and horses. If the surname Gao dares to push back, the two of you will directly serve Yangguan City to me! ”

Note 1: "You can't learn from Geshu, rampant in Qinghai at night with a knife, and take a purple robe from Xitu Stone Fort." The stone fort in this sentence is located near Qinghai Lake, which is similar to the name of the stone fort mentioned above, but it is not the same place. This Tang poem is a satire on the stone fort of Tubo that Ge Shuhan sacrificed the lives of countless subordinates in order to make meritorious contributions. With the blood of a soldier, he changed himself into a purple robe that marked his identity. According to legend, it was made by Li Bai. But some people think that it was written in the name of Li Bai.
