The holy decree actually only asked Wang Yuan to transfer troops to Gao Xianzhi's hands, and Gao Xianzhi went to quell the rebellion, instead of leading the army himself. This not only surprised Wang Yuan, who was already mentally prepared, but also made all the generals under his command feel unhappy. Although fighting a war is not a good thing, it is also the fastest shortcut to promotion. Moreover, in the past two years, there has been no war on the border, and everyone has been doing boring things to train recruits, without any passion, and these soldiers who are used to fighting have long been itchy.

Moreover, only the results of training can be truly demonstrated by fighting, and how well these recruits are trained ultimately needs to be tested on the battlefield to know the success or failure. However, the holy decree only wanted to send troops and horses, and did not let the commander lead the army, which was really unacceptable.

Wang Yuan looked at the frustrated looks of the generals and smiled: "At a critical time, the imperial court is still more inclined to my brother-in-law. It's no wonder that my brother can be called the first marshal of the Tang Dynasty, and when this time is urgent, His Majesty's first consideration must be him. But you don't have to be frustrated, if you want to fight, you also have a chance, and some of the soldiers and horses of my Jiannan Army and Longyou Army will be transferred to participate in the counterinsurgency, and some of your generals will definitely follow the leader. It is impossible for Gao Dashuai to change the generals and lead the army, and it is the right way to do it to the soldiers and horses of Jiannan Longyou or the generals of Jiannan Longyou. ”

Hearing Wang Yuan's words, the generals' eyes suddenly lit up, and they hurriedly asked who the marshal planned to send to lead the troops to follow Gao Xianzhi to quell the rebellion.

Wang Yuan thought for a while and said, "The imperial court wants me to send 50,000 troops to Jiannan and Longyou. I think so, if you want to send troops, it is better to send a general's troops and horses, which is more conducive to battle. For example, some from the Jiannan Army and some from the Longyou Army, the training of the two armies came from two people, and the means of leading the army were different, and the fighting style was different, but it was not easy to cooperate. But if it is trained by a general, it is like an arm. That's what I am. ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals immediately understood who Wang Yuan wanted to lead the army to accompany Gao Xianzhi to quell the rebellion. The total strength of the Jiannan Army is only 50,000 people, and it is impossible to withdraw all of them, so it can only be the Longyou Army. The Longyou Army has 75,000 soldiers, and the soldiers and horses have been personally trained and commanded by Ge Shuhan for two years, according to the standards of the marshal, it must be Ge Shuhan who will lead the 50,000 troops of the Longyou Army to quell the rebellion.

Sure enough, Wang Yuan looked at Ge Shuhan and smiled: "General Ge Shu seems to be a prophet of the future, it just so happens that you came to drink Xiao'er's full moon wine, and you happened to stay in Chengdu for a few days, just in time for this news." Otherwise, I will send someone to Longyou to inform you. ”

Ge Shuhan smiled bitterly: "Yes, it's really a coincidence. I didn't expect to encounter such a big thing. ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "General Geshu, I have never regarded you as a subordinate, even if you are my subordinate in name, I have always had great respect for you in my heart." For so many years in the Northwest, you have experienced a hundred battles and made countless meritorious contributions. I have always said that the attitude of the imperial court towards you is unjust. I have said all these things before Your Majesty. ”

Ge Shuhan hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Dashuai, you are indeed very good to me, Ge Shuhan has really been convinced of Wang Dashuai in the past two years." You have spoken up in front of Your Majesty about me and Guangbi, and we have always remembered it. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "That's what I should do, I can't watch you being wronged." In fact, in the past two years, I have rarely interfered in the affairs of your Longyou Army. I will leave the affairs of Longyou Dao to you to deal with, because in my mind, your brother Shuhan is still the Jiedu envoy of Longyou Dao. ”

Ge Shuhan hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't dare, don't dare, it's you who is the envoy of Longyoujiedu, and I have never had any ideas." ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "I know that your brother Shu is an open-minded person, of course he doesn't have any ideas. But I've always thought that you shouldn't be the way you are. Therefore, this time I want you to lead 50,000 Longyou troops to quell the rebellion with Gao Xianzhi, because I want to give you a chance to change the imperial court's opinion. That's all I can do, and the rest is up to you. If he can perform well in the counterinsurgency battle, then the humiliation of Tibet can be written off. ”

Ge Shuhan was so excited that he said in a deep voice: "Dashuai really has nothing to say to my brother Shuhan, I don't know what to say, Dashuai can give me this opportunity, my brother Shuhan will never embarrass Dashuai." This time to lead the army to quell the rebellion, I want to play the momentum and skills of the Longyou Army, and teach everyone to know that all the soldiers and horses under the commander are as brave as tigers. ”

Wang Yuan nodded and said, "That's what I want." I chose you because you have rich combat experience and are brave and good at fighting. I didn't want to say anything more, because you know more about warfare than I do, but I still have to give you two pieces of advice, and I hope you don't mind. ”

Ge Shuhan arched his hand and said: "But say, Ge Shuhan listens to it." ”

Wang Yuan thought for a while and said, "First of all, you are going out with Marshal Gao Xianzhi this time, then you are his subordinate, you must obey his military orders and listen to his dispatch." I know that in terms of qualifications, you are on par with Gao Dashuai, but this time Gao Dashuai is the boss, and you must not make your own decisions. ”

"That's natural, and of course I'll do what he does. Is the marshal worried that I will not obey the orders and make my own decisions, and repeat the mistakes I made in the Tubo Kingdom? Not anymore, never again. Geshuhan said.

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Then I can rest assured, it is difficult to put down the shelf." In the holy decree, it was said that the general Feng Changqing was awarded by His Majesty Fan Yang Pinglu Jiedu envoy. Don't think about it. But as long as the enemy is defeated and the meritorious service is made, the imperial court will not turn a blind eye. ”

Ge Shuhan laughed and said, "Remember the humble duty." Thank you for the reminder. ”

Wang Yuan said: "The second thing I want to advise you is that you are going to face the rebels of An Lushan. An Lushan's rebellion has been planned for a long time, and everything has been prepared for a long time. His rebels are not a rabble, they were originally the border town army of my Tang Dynasty, and they were trained as elite under An Lushan, and the weapons and equipment and horses were all excellent, and the materials were also extremely abundant. In the battle with An Lushan, you must not have any negligence and underestimate the enemy, otherwise you will definitely lose. To tell you the truth, I let you lead the army to fight with the tall commander, this is both an opportunity and a great challenge, and the outcome can only depend on you. But remember not to take your opponent lightly and be cautious, and this is my second piece of advice. ”

Ge Shuhan nodded and said: "Thank you for reminding the marshal, the humble post will definitely be cautious and cautious, and will not despise the rebels." ”

Wang Yuan smiled and nodded: "No, that's all I have to say." This holy decree was sent to the tall marshal of Anxi, and the tall marshal was going to set off with the whole army again, and I am afraid it would take at least a month to send the troops. But you have to go back to Longyou to choose soldiers and horses and get ready. When the tall and handsome soldiers and horses pass through Longyou Road, I will personally go to see you and see you off. ”

Ge Shuhan arched his hand and said: "Thank you Marshal, I will leave before noon, go back to reorganize the soldiers and horses and get ready, and wait for the arrival of the tall marshal." ”

Wang Yuan waved his hand and dispersed, and Ge Shuhan was happy to go out of the yamen with great ambition. Song Jiangong, Liu Dehai and others all came up, and they all complained.

Song Jiangong said: "Big handsome, why don't you have a chance at the humble level?" We're your descendants. His brother Shuhan has been disobedient to Dashuai in the past two years, and he has contradicted Dashuai several times, but you are still so good to him. We don't have a chance. ”

Liu Dehai also said: "Yes, even if we let us lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to follow the merit." ”

"Merit?" Wang Yuan shouted in a deep voice: "Do you think that this counterinsurgency is a matter of grabbing credit? I tell you the truth, this rebellion in An Lushan will be a disaster. If I don't go, any of you will die. The reason why I let Ge Shuhan lead the army is that he has experienced a hundred battles, and he can compete with An Lushan's soldiers and horses when he goes. Second, even if I don't let him go, he will definitely go to the court to ask for his life. His good friend Li Guangbi is the envoy of Hexi Province, and he will definitely go with Gao Xianzhi to quell the rebellion this time, and he will definitely recommend Ge Shuhan in front of Gao Dashuai. So, I might as well do something that goes with the flow. ”

"But...... Aren't we just watching with our eyes? Song Jiangong frowned.

Wang Yuan shook his head with a smile and said, "If there is a fight, sooner or later it will be our turn." We all went back to train our soldiers and horses, and we really didn't have much time. ”

Song Jiangong was surprised: "What the big marshal means is that even if the tall marshal leads the army this time, he may not be ......."

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "I didn't say anything, what are you guessing?" Don't go about it and do things. ”

Song Jiangong hurriedly shut up and left with a group of generals. muttered in his heart, the meaning of the marshal was obviously that Marshal Gao Xianzhi might not be able to resist the rebels, but I don't know how the marshal made this judgment.

After everyone left, Liu Jun, who had been standing beside Wang Yuan, also retreated. Wang Yuan stopped him and said, "Liu Jun, are you also regretting that you didn't go to quell the rebellion?" ”

Liu Jun is already tall and completely looks like a young man, and when he heard this, he arched his hand and said: "Father-in-law, Jun'er only listens to his father-in-law's dispatch, and I don't think about anything else." Father-in-law has a reason for doing this. ”

Wang Yuan nodded and said, "Very good, you can hold it steady, at least much better than them." In time, you will be a famous general in the world and admired by everyone in the world. But now, something had to be done immediately. ”

Liu Jun said: "Father-in-law, please command." ”

Wang Yuan groaned: "Your mother kisses her...... I hope you can write a letter to her to persuade her to leave the capital and come to Chengdu. ”

Liu Jun frowned and said, "Why is this?" Isn't it nice to be in the capital? ”

Wang Yuan sighed and said in a low voice: "Jun'er, I'm not alarmist, according to my judgment, Chang'an is difficult to hold, so you must take your mother to Chengdu as soon as possible for refuge." ”

Liu Jun was stunned and said in shock: "Father-in-law, aren't you joking?" Before the rebels arrived in Luoyang, did you assert that the capital was not safe? ”

Wang Yuan groaned: "I just have this premonition, if you ask me what basis I have, I can only say that I have no basis." ”

Liu Jun smiled and said, "I'm afraid my father-in-law is too worried, but for the sake of insurance, I will write to my mother and ask her to come to Chengdu for refuge." If nothing else, the child retired. ”

Wang Yuan waved his hand in agreement, Liu Jun bowed slightly, then turned around and shook his cloak and strode away. Wang Yuan looked at his back and sighed: "I hope I am too worried, and I also hope that everything will not happen." We'll see. ”
