Chapter 101: Mrs. Gao
Chapter 101: Mrs. Gao
Zhang Xuan sent Hu Tang to rest, the matter in the south seems to be very important, but there will be no change for a while, so there is no hurry. But the matter on Gao Yigong's side is already imminent.
When Zhang Xuan saw Mrs. Gao again, he was slightly surprised.
It's not that he hasn't met Mrs. Gao. It's just that even though Mrs. Gao was not a multi-pink, but she was also very well maintained, with a bit of style, when she saw Zhang Xuan, she also valued Zhang Xuan as Luo Yujiao's husband, not anything else, and there was a feeling that the elders looked at the younger generations.
And now she is dressed in a cloth robe, like an ordinary woman. Hair is slightly coiled. Not a single headdress. There is no bright color on the cloth, it seems that under the many washes, the original color is revealed, but a string of Buddhist beads in the hand looks smooth and eye-catching.
This bead is not a good wood either. It's just that I've been played with for a lot of time. Mrs. Gao, who has become accustomed to one hand, gently twists the Buddha beads, and recites two sentences of the "King Jizo Sutra" from time to time. The sound is like a mosquito, if it weren't for Zhang Xuan reading some Buddhist scriptures, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to hear it.
Li Zicheng's death was expected for Zhang Xuan. But for Mrs. Gao, it is a pain that can never be accepted
Even Li Guo is determined to avenge Li Zicheng, Mrs. Gao and Li Zicheng have been in the same boat for so many years, how can there be no thoughts of revenge in their hearts, but Luo Rucai is dead, and Luo Yulong and Luo Yujiao's brothers and sisters were also raised by her. Luo Yulong was very polite to Mrs. Gao, and the remaining old people in the camp needed to be taken care of by the Luo family.
All kinds of complex emotions are always difficult for outsiders to understand, but after Li Zicheng's death, Mrs. Gao fasted.
Under the green lantern ancient Buddha, Mrs. Gao can ask for peace of mind.
In troubled times, who can have a clear heart, if they can rest assured, it can be regarded as a good thing.
Zhang Xuan said: "I've seen Madame." ”
Mrs. Gao was unmoved, her eyes opened and closed slightly, revealing a hint of gaze, and said: "The general is busy with official business, and the old woman shouldn't be disturbed, but the general invited me over just for my nephew." I think I'm going to be a general. It's just that the old woman still wants to ask the general for a promise, but she doesn't know what the general is going to do after my nephew surrenders to the king. ”
Zhang Xuan said: "This matter is naturally decided by Nanjing----
Mrs. Gao didn't wait for Zhang Xuan to finish speaking, and said, "Why should the general coax me an old woman. The general is in charge of Tiannan, and half of the Great Xia is in the hands of the general, and the matter of the little nephew is naturally decided by the general, as long as you say it, Your Majesty will naturally not refute it. ”
"If the general can ask the little nephew to surrender, the old woman will go for the general."
"If the general just wants the life of the little nephew. Anyway, my Gao family only has this bit of blood left, and if the general wants to kill him, the old woman naturally won't stop her, but the old woman can't walk for the general. ”
In Mrs. Gao's words, the stick was clamped, which made Zhang Xuan feel a little uncomfortable.
Zhang Xuan's status has gradually risen, and few people have spoken like this around Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuan couldn't help it, and said: "Madame said that he laughed, Brother Gao is a general, and my Daxia is the time to employ people, how can I dampen the hearts of heroes from all over the world." Please also rest assured that as long as the senior brother is willing to abandon the secret and surrender to the light, the younger generation dares to guarantee that the senior brother is one of the generals of the four towns and four towns. ”
Mrs. Gao said: "I don't care if the general is not a general, I just want my nephew to live." ”
Zhang Xuan said: "The younger generation guarantees with his life, as long as the senior brother abides by my Great Xia Law, he will definitely have no worries about his life." ”
Mrs. Gao looked at Zhang Xuan deeply for a while, as if she believed Mrs. Gao's words, and said, "That's fine." I'm going to see you, and I hope you'll keep your promise. ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Gao didn't have the slightest look of wanting to stay, got up and left, Zhang Xuan hurriedly got up to send Mrs. Gao out, but Mrs. Gao didn't even look back, and left.
Zhang Xuan sighed slightly in his heart, he really didn't want to embarrass Gao Gong, but looking at Mrs. Gao's appearance, he still sighed slightly in his heart, the world is impermanent.
Zhang Xuan packed up his spirits, because he still had someone to meet.
It was Yuan Zongdi.
Yuan Zongdi's attitude was much better than that of Mrs. Gao.
Yuan Zongdi saw Zhang Xuan and immediately knelt on the ground and said, "The last general will meet the general of Zhengnan." ”
Zhang Xuan immediately stepped forward and said, "Brother Yuan, please get up quickly." ”
Zhang Xuan's attitude towards Yuan Zongdi is much warmer than that of Mrs. Gao, although there is a lot of reason why Yuan Zongdi's attitude is much better than that of Mrs. Gao, and there is also respect for Mrs. Gao, but it is just Zhang Xuan's respect for her elders, in fact, there are not many places where Mrs. Gao can help Zhang Xuan.
But Yuan Zongdi is different.
In Zhang Xuan's view, Yuan Zongdi is a general who is not inferior to Gao Yigong, no, even more powerful than Gao Yigong, such a general, naturally has the courtesy they should have.
Yuan Zongdi saw Zhang Xuan's attitude towards him, and his heart also moved suddenly, and he said secretly: "What I have asked for here may be able to be fulfilled." ”
What Yuan Zongdi asked for was nothing else, that is, to bring troops again.
Many generals who have come out of the flames of war regard it as a matter of energy to lead their troops to fight; if they keep fighting, they may not think that there will be a time when the world will be peaceful, but if they do not fight for a long time, they will have a feeling of itching all over their bodies.
Yuan Zongdi is like this.
Because Li Guo betrayed Xiangyang, these old generals who broke into the camp were all idle in Great Xia. However, during this period of time, Zhang Xuan's victory in Hunan also made Luo Yulong relax his tasks for these generals, but even so, Luo Yulong did not let them stay in the Beijing army, so he sent these generals to all directions and appointed them separately.
Huaixi Town, Xiangyang Town, and Zhang Yingyuan's subordinates were assigned many generals.
And Yuan Zongdi was assigned to Xijing.
As soon as I came to Xijing, I felt that I met Hu Tang and invited someone to be a lobbyist.
He also understood that only in war could he have a chance, so he agreed without saying a word. He didn't come here to convince Gao Yigong, but to find an opportunity to return to the battlefield.
After Zhang Xuan and Yuan Zongdi sat down, when Zhang Xuan asked Gao Yigong first, Yuan Zongdi said: "The minister and Gao Yigong fought side by side at the beginning, and now the battlefield situation is no more obvious, and in the end, Gao Yigong will definitely be able to persuade Gao Yigong to defect to Great Xia." ”
"That's fine." Zhang Xuan said.
"General, the last general was transferred to Xijing at the request of the Privy Council this time, and the last general privately admired the general's battle of the southern expedition, and wanted to listen to it under the general, and asked the general to read that the general still had some courage and accepted the general. The last general will definitely go to the soup for the general, and he will not give up. Yuan Zongdi said.
When Zhang Xuan heard this, his heart moved, and he said secretly: "This Yuan Zongdi came just in time. ”
If Yuan Zongdi came early, when he was fighting, he couldn't say that he would let Yuan Zongdi sit on the cold bench for a while, and if he came later, the large-scale arrangement would have settled. Where can you still make a place for Yuan Zongdi.
And at this time, it's really not too early or too late, just right.
Although Zhang Xuan wanted to select some generals from his old department, he had to admit that Yuan Zongdi was the general of the aspect, and Cao Zongyu under his command Xu Du wanted to compare with him, maybe in the meantime, but the rest of the people could not compare to Yuan Zongdi.
In addition, Yuan Zongdi is a veteran of the camp, and a considerable part of the prisoners in Zhang Xuan's army are from the loyalty camp, and with Yuan Zongdi here, he can also serve the public. After all, the contradiction between Zhang Xuan's old department and the surrender army has reached the point that Zhang Xuan has to pay attention to it.
"I can get General Yuan's help." Zhang Xuan said: "It's Zhang's honor, and I will ask Brother Yuan to take care of it in the future." ”
Yuan Zongdi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said, "Thank you, General." ”
Zhang Xuan and Yuan Zongdi's topic immediately shifted to the situation of the various departments in Changsha City, Zhang Xuan explained the problem to Yuan Zongdi, and the attitude of reuse was very obvious, almost a candle night talk, talked all night, and finally decided to let Yuan Zongdi lead an army and three battalions, more than 10,000 people.
However, all these things can only be carried out after solving the high level.
It seems that Mrs. Gao was very anxious, and in the early morning of the second day, she went to see Gao Yigong, and Yuan Zongdi also went with her.
