Chapter Forty-Nine: Three Righteous Sons were Accepted
Sun Kewang had tears in his eyes and said: "After the fiasco of the Carriage Gorge, Pingliang Mansion became a lonely city, Hong Chengchou mobilized heavy troops to surround it, General Cai knew that the city was difficult to defend, and led his brothers to break through to the Blue Mountain, Ma Zhi'an in order to cover our evacuation, and several times the enemy melee battle, and finally died at the east city gate. ”
"Ma Zhi'an died in battle?" Gao Junshan felt uncomfortable for a while, he remembered Ma Zhi'an, who had just come to cast in Hongdong, the first task was to break the queen, and he did it very well, and he returned to the team again after escaping death, and he was loyal to Gao Junshan.
Sun Kewang choked up and said: "For our evacuation, he led 3,000 men and horses to guard the east gate, and fought with tens of thousands of enemies for a day and a night, buying precious time for our evacuation, and finally the whole army was annihilated. ”
"If you don't swear this revenge, you won't be a person!" Gao Junshan forcefully broke the branch in his hand.
"The biggest culprit is Hong Chengchou!" Sun Kewang added.
Gao Junshan was silent for a moment and asked, "You just said that Zhang Xianzhong's 40,000 horses were absorbed by Chen Qiyu, where have they gone now?" ”
Sun Kewang said: "They were divided into a team of 100 people by the official army, and each team was led by a military academy and went from Lianyun Plank Road to Baoji. ”
"What is the current dynamics of the official army?" Gao Junshan asked again.
"A large number of officers and soldiers seem to be showing signs of evacuation."
Gao Junshan analyzed: "They are not evacuating, I have obtained reliable information, Huang Taiji concentrated tens of thousands of horses to invade my border pass, and the imperial court is transferring troops." ”
Sun Kewang was excited and said, "We can take this opportunity to attack Pingliang again." ”
"No." Gao Junshan's heart was heavy, and his first thought was the safety of the country, "Go back to the old camp first and then make plans." ”
But the Blue Mountains secret camp.
As soon as he returned to the old camp, Gao Junshan first went to visit Ma Zhi'an's family and adopted his two sons as righteous sons, the eldest was called Ma Jin, 16 years old, and the second was called Ma Wen, 14 years old.
Due to the loss of more than half of Cai Zhishan's troops in the Pingliang Breakout Battle, Gao Junshan reorganized the team, divided the only 12,000 men into three battalions, and canceled the number of the Tiger and Leopard Army.
The first battalion is the musket battalion, with 5,000 people, Cai Zhishan is the general soldier of the first battalion, and Li Busi is the deputy commander-in-chief; Liu Chenggong's rocket cavalry team was incorporated into the first battalion;
The second battalion was a heavy cavalry battalion with 4,000 men, Cao Wenzhao was the general soldier of the second battalion, He Renlong was the deputy commander-in-chief, and the Mongolian cavalry of Uliji was incorporated into the second battalion;
The third battalion is a light cavalry battalion with 3,000 people, the Red Army friends are the general soldiers of the third battalion, and Cao Bianjiao is the deputy commander-in-chief.
Gao Junshan has more than 30,000 war horses, almost three horses per person, which creates conditions for Gao Junshan to carry out sports warfare.
Cai Zhishan lived up to Gao Junshan's expectations, and when he withdrew from Pingliang, he brought out Chongwen Academy safely and intact, not only that, but he also brought out all the gold and silver of Han Wangfu. In accordance with Gao Junshan's order, when he withdrew from Pingliang, he released King Han, who had been imprisoned for a long time.
Where to go next, Gao Junshan convened Bailisha, Tian Wenju, Liu Hongru and Cai Zhishan, the four core civil and military dignitaries, to discuss together.
Tian Wenju first put forward his own thoughts: "Exploring the Malay report, Hong Chengchou has left Pingliang, and now Pingliang only has Wang Pu's 3,000 men and horses, and our army will kill back to Pingliang, which can be broken in one fell swoop." ”
Gao Junshan objected: "Pingliang is already an empty city. If we fight again, although we can win, we can't make a profit, so what's the use of fighting? Fighting a war has to calculate the cost, just like doing business, you have to make a profit to do it. ”
Liu Hongru suggested: "Judging from the current situation, it is better to go to Guyuan, and the general soldier Yang Qi should move to Shanhaiguan, the first can be to defend the solid plain, and the second can be recuperating." ”
Gao Junshan vetoed this plan: "Guyuan is more desolate than Pingliang, it is a place where birds don't, we want to develop, we want to choose a densely populated place as a place for us to settle down." ”
Cai Zhishan proposed: "Then choose the land of Bashu." Thousands of miles of fertile fields, the land of abundance. ”
Bailisha said: "It is difficult for Shu Road to go to the blue sky, and it is not the first place to go. We can cross the Qinling Mountains and take the Golden Bull Road and enter Hanzhong; Or cross the Tong Pass into western Henan. ”
Tian Wenju said: "Going to Hanzhong is the best policy. As long as we walk Huating and go down along the water, we can reach Baoji and Fengxian, and then we can take the Golden Bull Road and enter Hanzhong. ”
Liu Hongru disagreed: "I thought that going to Tongguan was the best policy." If you go to Hanzhong, not to mention whether the Golden Bull Road can go to the past, even if you go through, it will not be easy to come out in the future, Zhuge Liang has not been able to come out of Qishan seven times, let alone us. ”
Gao Junshan ended the discussion in a concluding way: "What you have said makes sense. I decided, Bingfa Feng County. As long as we occupy Fengxian, we can cross Tongguan if we want to, or we can take the Golden Bull Road, and if that road can be passed, we will take whichever way. ”
After that, Gao Junshan came to Chongwen Academy and met with the students studying here. In such a difficult environment, one can imagine the difficulties of Chongwen Academy.
The humble Chongwen Academy was built on a hillside, and more than 30 thatched houses were the dormitories for the more than 100 students, with the classrooms in the open air, the wooden boards were their desks, and the stones were their stools. You can only concentrate on classes when the weather is good, and you can only study on your own in the dormitory on rainy days. However, it is now a drought year in Shaanxi, and after the Chinese New Year, there is very little rain in this area, especially in recent months, the weather is dry and dry, and there is not a drop of rain, so the students insist on attending classes every day.
The sun was shining, and the sweaty students were neatly and dignified on the stone benches, looking forward to the arrival of the high mountain.
There was no wind in the August sky, unknown insects chirping in the grass, and the high mountain boots came to the podium with firm steps.
"Greetings to Mr. Student!" More than 100 students performed the teacher-student ceremony.
He stood on the grass, faced the students with a smile, and said in a voice like a bell: "Disciples, it's been a long time! Thank you very much, thank you for your pursuit of knowledge, and for persevering in your hard work in such a humble environment. It is not that I want to thank you, but that the vast number of poor people thank you. Why? Because knowledge can change poverty, it is the ladder of human progress; It is the bridge from ignorance to civilization for mankind; It is our wings to the world! Now I will tell you about the knowledge of the ocean and how to use the wind effectively. ……”
Gao Junshan's lecture was very popular with the students, he talked about this class for most of the hour, during which the students also continued to raise many ship problems, of course, many problems are not a problem for modern people, such as, spinnaker, square sail, brig sail, high and low mast sail, but for people at the time, it was a mystery.
He not only attaches great importance to the teaching of Chongwen Academy, but also attaches importance to the early education of his son. No, when he returned home, his two average-old sons surrounded him, shouting "Daddy, Daddy" non-stop.
The two sons are already two years old and two months old, the eldest Gao Hongbing was born to Liu Fanglan, and the second Gao Chengjun was born to Han Yuyan, and the difference between the two is only one hour. The eldest was born without a mother, and he grew up eating Han Yuyan's milk with his younger brother.
When he saw his son, he was so happy that he picked one up in one hand and kissed this and that.
Intimacy is intimacy, and he can't forget to check on their studies. The two little guys just began to memorize Tang poems. He put down the children, asked them to sit upright on the chairs, asked the brothers to take turns reciting Tang poems, and sat on the Taishi chair himself.
The two little ones babbled and retweeted, Gao Junshan closed his eyes and listened very happily, although he couldn't hear most of it clearly, it was like listening to a book from heaven, but he seemed to be enjoying beautiful music.
"The child called you!" Han Yuyan came over and gently pushed Gao Junshan's back, "Thinking about something?" ”
When the two little ones saw Gao Junshan close his eyes, they thought he was asleep, so they called his father away.
Gao Junshan heard Han Yuyan's voice, he turned around and grabbed her hand, and then dragged her whole person into his arms, and she sat on his lap, grinning.
"Miss you!" He murmured.
"Want me?" She whispered, "With Jiya and Suena by their side, you have forgotten everything about me a long time ago, right?" ”
Although Han Yuyan gave birth to a son for Gao Junshan, she has just turned nineteen years old now, which is the age of spring, and the bulging breast room makes her even more charming.
His fingers couldn't help but move up little by little, and she flicked it lightly, "You two children are looking at you!" ”
He removed her plump buttocks, stood up and said, "Speaking of the child, I have something to tell you." ”
"What's the matter?" Her tone was still so soft.
Gao Junshan said: "From today onwards, the Red Soldier and the Orange Army have three more righteous brothers. ”
"Three brothers-in-law?"
Gao Junshan explained: "Yes. Two are Ma Zhi'an's children and one is Sun Jiye's children. ”
"Oh, I know that." Han Yuyan asked with concern, "Is there any arrangement for their parents' wives?" ”
"These are all placed by Tian Junshi." Gao Junshan said as he picked up his two sons, "I invited the children to come to the house tonight, you can make good arrangements." ”
Gao Junshan's home is a makeshift wooden house, a total of five rooms, the yard is fenced, large, rectangular, in addition to five wooden houses, there are several tents, for domestic slaves and maids.
The children came to visit Gao Junshan before dark, and there were four children in total. They are Ma Zhi'an's two sons, Ma Jin and Ma Wen; Sun Jiye's son, Sun Dahai; There is also a son of Li Busi, named Li Hu, who was pulled by Sun Dahai to come together.
Gao Junshan, who was in the house, was very happy to see the four children, and the four of them bowed when they saw Gao Junshan, Ma Jin, Ma Wen and Sun Dahai said: "Ma Jin, Ma Wen, Sun Dahai - please meet my father!" ”
Li Hu said: "Li Hu greets King Qin!" ”
"Rise, children!" Gao Junshan smiled, "Ma Jin, Ma Wen, Sun Dahai, the three of you worship me separately, don't forget your stepmother." ”
After Gao Junshan finished speaking, he asked Zhang Cong to invite Han Yuyan, Han Yuyan took a son into the house with one hand, the four children saw the two little brothers coming, and they rushed to hug them, Gao Junshan asked the three righteous sons to pay homage to Han Yuyan, Marven was young, and bowed his head, and after worshipping, he went to the side to play with the little brother.
Ma Jin and Sun Dahai looked at Han Yuyan, who was only three years older than them, at a loss.
