Chapter 132: Between Advance and Retreat (I)

Geng Bing said again, "Brother, you have made immortal contributions for the country and your family, and the emperor personally named you the captain of the 2,000-stone cavalry, your dream when you were a teenager has finally come true, what do you think about the future?" ”

Geng Gong lowered his head, silent, his eyes were red, and he said for a while, "Brother, the first battle in the Western Regions, full of white bones, innocent soldiers, killed on the battlefield, how many families are broken, although it is successful, but my brother has deep feelings, for fame and fortune, I don't care about it for a long time, I only know that for the country and the family, throw my head, spill blood, and live up to my life!" ”

Geng Bing was worried, but still asked lightly, "How is my brother treated?" ”

Geng Gong's originally sad face suddenly became indignant, "Brother has a few wishes!" When I went out to the Western Regions, I asked my mother about the cause of my father's death, and my mother blamed me. After a pause, Geng Gong looked up into the distance, and said hatefully, "The Huns are cruel and murderous!" The people in the border areas are overwhelmed by their suffering! My brother led 2,000 soldiers, all of whom died outside the Saiwai, and my sworn brother Wu Meng was also not in the army! Another brother, Ban Chao, is still trapped in the Huns. Brother, the family and the country are hated, and they must be avenged! I can't wait to ask the emperor for help and go to the Western Regions immediately! ”

Geng Bing was startled, and before he could speak, a person next to him stood up and shouted, "Brother, don't be like this!" Not so! ”

Geng Bing looked at it, but it was Yang Yan, and Geng Bing provoked him with words, "Why can't this be?" ”

Yang Yan thought for a while, and said, "The brave one who shook the master is in danger, my brother's 300 soldiers contain the 100,000 troops of the Huns, and the broken car division, Ping Wusun, Shou Shule, Yongguan three armies, everyone in the world knows!" And there are not a few people who can harm the sages! They hid in the shadows, eyeing each other, and when their brother made the slightest mistake, they would immediately attack. Imagine that there is no gold and no one is perfect, and the open gun is easy to dodge, the hidden arrow hurts people, and the brother is loyal and martyrdom, once he calculates for the thief, the consequences are unimaginable! ”

Geng Bing listened, and was secretly shocked in his heart, "This Yang Yan is so enlightened!" The day before yesterday, he set out to conquer the Western Regions, but he was decent and hidden, this person is really not simple! ”

Geng Gong's eyes flashed, revealing a dignified aura, and he said proudly, "Everyone is long, and I can't take care of it!" As long as you can go into battle to kill the enemy, report to the country, report to your family, and fulfill your wish, it is worth dying! ”

Li Dang jumped up and said in a rough voice, "Brother is right, Brother Wu Meng died in the driver's division, and his body didn't know where he went!" If you don't avenge such a revenge, what's the difference between it and a brute! ”

Geng Bing frowned, and said slowly, "I founded the country of the Han Dynasty, and there are countless brave and strategizing people, but they are all dead and discredited, and even the family is deeply burdened, and they will be exiled at least and punished at worst, do you know why?" ”

Geng Gonglang said loudly, "The merit is high and the lord is shocked, hiding selfishness, I don't know how to converge, what is not to die!" ”

"My brother only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other. For the generals, sit high on the temple, know the current affairs, or face difficulties, or protect themselves wisely, or retreat bravely in the torrent...... Between advance and retreat, there is a lot of exquisiteness. Otherwise, even if you are loyal, you will end up in ruin! ”

Geng Gong was silent, bowing his head and thinking carefully about his brother's words. Geng Bing sighed again and said, "Although my younger brother has made great contributions, it is far from enough to shock the lord, but it is enough to shock some ministers!" Yang Yan is right, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it! You can gallop on the battlefield, but you can't stand in the court! My Geng family is the third general, the world looks sideways, my brother does not think about himself, but also thinks about the fate of the family! ”

Geng Gong was shocked, what my brother said was all true! Life is helpless, serving the country and family, I can't help myself. After a while, the flame in his eyes was extinguished, and he said in a dumb voice, "Brother, my mother died, I was discouraged, and I didn't care about national affairs, so I should be clothed in linen, in this mountain, I will settle down and keep filial piety for three years!" ”

Geng Bing couldn't bear it in his heart, shook his head and said nothing.

Li Kang jumped up and shouted, "Brother, do you really want to live in this barren mountain?" Have you forgotten the death of your uncle and brother Wu Meng? ”

Fan Qiang said angrily, "Li Kang, don't talk nonsense!" My brother's long-cherished wish is to go to the Western Regions, fight the Huns, guard the border, dare not invade each other, report to the country, and report home! ”

Yang Wu said loudly, "Brother, the emperor is unkind, the former Wei Qing, Huo Quai, came back from the war, and they were all sealed, that Su Wu, who stayed in the Huns for decades, also sealed the Hou, today we are in the Western Regions for nine deaths, drinking horse dung water, gnawing bark, my brother only became a broken cavalry captain, in my opinion, don't work for any officials, I think the scenery of this Baiyun Mountain is very good, it is better to take the brothers to occupy the mountain as the king, happy and happy!" ”

Li Dare laughed, "Yang Wu, I really can't see it, I usually have a big old and thick one, but at this time, I suddenly ...... so smart"

"Shut up!" Suddenly, a loud roar, like a thunderbolt, startled Li Dang, hurriedly closed his mouth, and did not dare to make a sound. I saw Geng Gongsen and said, "Brothers, we are in the Western Regions, we have worked hard, experienced life and death, what are we looking for?" For yourself? No! We're for the big man! For the peace of millions of people! The great virtue of the world is nothing more than loyalty! In the future, no matter how the emperor treats us, we must be dedicated to the country and unswerving! In the future, whoever says such rebellious words again, don't blame the ruthlessness of being a brother! ”

When everyone heard this, they were full of feelings. Some admire, some agree, some are unwilling, some are helpless, and some disagree...... Geng Bing was worried, "The gang of people under my younger brother, some are brave, some are wise, brave and have general knowledge, Yang Yan and Fan Qiang are the first to be recommended, and Shi Xiu is the second, as for the others, they are very reckless, and sooner or later they will make a mess!" ”

Zhengde Palace, standing majestically with nine vermilion pillars, carved with a whirling coiled golden dragon, mouth spit pearls, teeth and claws, lifelike, shining. On the dragon case, there is a royal seal made of gold, and a bunch of bamboo slips are folded into bundles and placed aside. Dou Gu and Wu Lun led the hundred officials and civil and military, bowed their heads, and the hall was silent.

"The emperor has arrived!" Nakatsune shouted at the top of his voice. Emperor Zhang's head was crowned to the sky, his feet were stepping on jade dragon boots, and he walked into the dragon case, his eyes were like electricity, and he swept towards the civil and military officials, and then sat down.

Standing in the corner of the dragon case, the Buddha dust waved, and shouted in a screaming voice, "Something to play quickly, nothing to retreat!" ”

There was silence in the hall. Deng Xun, the general of the cavalry, flashed out, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, the Yumen Pass guards the future report, yesterday the Huns attacked, kidnapped more than 3,000 people in Yanmen County, and destroyed more than 10,000 houses. ”

Emperor Zhang's face was expressionless, and the dragon's lips lightly opened, "General Dou, how is this matter?" ”
