Chapter 234: Military Might
Ge Shu Deying is indeed Ge Shuhan's own nephew, and the reason why Ge Shuhan placed him in the Chishui Army and let him do evil is that Ge Shu Deying is Yang Guozhong's quasi-son-in-law.
Yang Guozhong has a daughter named Yang Ying, legend has it that this woman has a leg with Du Fu, but its authenticity is not very credible, Du Fu's life is more miserable, giving birth to a son can starve to death, if he has an affair with Yang Guozhong's woman, it will definitely not fall to such a point, and Yang Guozhong does have such a daughter, because he wants to win over Ge Shuhan, he asked people to protect the media during the Spring Festival this year, and promised Yang Ying to Ge Shuying.
The reason why Yang Guozhong took a fancy to Ge Shu Deying is by no means accidental, but the kid was brought up by Ge Shuhan, although Ge Shuhan is extremely strict in governing the army, but he treats his relatives very sheltering, and this Ge Shuying has developed a character that no one in his eyes has come and gone, and the king of heaven is not afraid, Ge Shuhan knows that this big nephew has no future, so he has always planned to protect him as an official, but Yang Guozhong originally wanted to win over Ge Shuhan, there is an old girl to be married at home, but Ge Shuhan has few sons who are suitable for marriage, and he just found Ge Shudeying, Yang Guozhong knew that Ge Shuhan regarded this nephew as his own, so he mentioned this marriage.
Since Yang Guozhong intends to form an alliance with Ge Shuhan, Ge Shuhan is not easy to refuse, and he naturally wants to gild Ge Shu Deying before getting married, so he is worthy of the identity of the prime minister of Shangyang.
In order to be the right person, Ge Shu Deying was inserted into the Chishui Army, and within a few months of hard work, he was promoted to the deputy envoy of the Chishui Army, but this Ge Shu Deying's reputation is really big, this guy has all kinds of relationships in the army, and he has become the second in Hexi, that is, Ge Shuhan's deputy general has to give him face, and this kid not only thinks he has a skill, but he also pulls the Chishui Army out to cause trouble at every turn, and even worse. This guy is blatantly gambling in the army, and there is nothing he dare not do.
Ge Shuhan didn't educate him less, it was really immoral, but this kid was too bad-tempered, and he didn't like him a little, so he went to Ge Shuhan's wife to complain, after all, he was also raised by him since he was a child, Ge Shuhan wanted to be partial, but in fact, he was helpless, and he could only be put in the army for a while. Wait for Yang Guozhong to quickly transfer him to the capital.
Ge Shu Deying made the Chishui Army into a miasma, and all the sergeants in the army were clear, especially this person immediately became Yang Guozhong's son-in-law, and the generals didn't need to slander in front of Ge Shuhan and didn't want to touch this moldy head, they generally endured it if they could.
Therefore, when Gao Chu learned that Xu Chen was going to review the Chishui Army, he couldn't help but be a little worried about Xu Chen, it was inevitable that he would encounter this tumor, and once there was friction, the consequences would not be very optimistic. Although he knew that this horse didn't even pay attention to Yang Ting, and he had no scruples about this brother Shu Deying, this person still had a relationship with Brother Shuhan, which offended him. Nothing good.
Of course, Gao Chu was only a faint worry, not that he could expect that Xu Juma would get involved with that brother Shu Deying as soon as he inspected the army, but this brother Shu Deying was very arrogant on weekdays, and an inspector came to the court in the first few months. I just hit the Chishui Army, but when I checked the weapons, I made Ge Shu Deying unhappy because of a sentence, and I just scolded the inspector even more. Ge Shuhan personally intervened to calm down the incident.
And it was precisely as Gao Chu's apprehension that sure enough, before the horse started the parade, he had to scold Brother Shu Deying.
When the sergeants heard that the horse wanted to be scolded with a cane, they were all dumbfounded, everyone knew the identity of Ge Shu Deying, how far away they hid when they saw this person on weekdays, but now they were stunned, didn't the don care about Ge Shu Deying's identity?
Although it did not cause an uproar among the sergeants, they were all surprised, there were five thousand soldiers gathered on the school field at this time, standing straight one by one, without the slightest noise, Xu Chen could hear what he said in front of him clearly.
This school field was originally a place for the Chishui Army to practice, it was very large and wide, and the eight thousand troops of the Chishui Army had gathered five thousand in a short period of time, waiting for the review of the horses, but before it started, his jaw dropped in shock, how could the horses from the capital be so bullish? Geshu Deying doesn't even pay attention to it?
Ge Shudeying didn't plan to come over, this early morning sudden military parade, he was a son, where did he suffer, but he heard that a marching commander came to Beijing was a donkey, and this expedition Ge Shuhan naturally gave him a chance to perform, to put it bluntly, let him follow this horse together.
He didn't know much about this horse, and he didn't go to the reception ceremony, but he heard that this horse was also a gentleman, and the officers and men in the army knew one thing: This horse with three thousand guards was greedy for merit.
This expedition must be a great victory, and if there is no accident in this first achievement, Ge Shuhan will definitely be the first to recommend the horse, and he can also share some credit in it, and he has no good impression of this horse, since there is such a relationship, the horse will definitely be headed by Ge Shuhan.
Although I looked down on him in my heart, I still wanted to see this person, and there were some deliberate elements in procrastination, but when I lined up in the army, I didn't expect this colt to be scolded by him, where can I bear it, just because the colt doesn't know his identity.
Ashina couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard that Xu Chen's order turned out to be a cane to scold Brother Shu Deying, and then there was a trace of imperceptible joy in his eyes, but because of this military uniform, he still persuaded: "Does Xu Juma know who this person is?" Don't hurt the peace. ”
The generals and soldiers in the army are all watching here, Ash Nazhu is putting forward such a sentence, they are all waiting for Xu Chen's reaction, Xu Chen glanced at this strong man curiously, where is this person persuading, in such an occasion, this is obviously adding fuel to the fire, the first feeling is that Ash Nazhu has endured Ge Shu Deying for a long time, and he can't wait to beat this person immediately, for fear that things will not make a big fuss.
Xu Chen also ignored what the Chishui military envoy had settled, because Xu Chen's purpose for this military parade was to go to Geshu Deying, and to find fault and change the law to deal with him, his mentality was very peaceful, and the purpose was very clear, so he speculated a little about this old man's untimely sentence, since this Ashina deliberately provoked, Xu Chen said: "This person violated military discipline first, I don't care who he is, the picketer listened to the order, and set this person up with a cane thirty!" ”
The majesty of the words is not allowed to be questioned in the slightest, and the whole army is silent and silent.
In the military, it is important to enforce orders and prohibitions. As a senior general, Xu Chen's words were naturally military orders, and the picketers were frightened by Xu Chen's unacceptable momentum, and if they dared not obey orders, they came out one after another and arrested that brother Shu Deying.
Ge Shu Deying's face turned red, red like a monkey's buttocks, this is obviously to move seriously, and it is really not his character to be caught with his hands tied, and the picket officer was just about to go up and catch him. was torn apart by him and said loudly: "I see who dares to touch me today!" ”
Ashina had a premonition that this horse must have something inside the matter when he came to inspect the army early in the morning for no reason, and he didn't receive a notice from Ge Shuhan, so he ran to Ge Shuhan's residence to report it as soon as possible. Now that things have reached this point, it is not easy for him to end, besides, he wants to make things bigger.
These generals in the front line were all there without speaking, and they were indeed low-status, and they were not qualified to say it, and they hated this ruffian for a long time. There is an urge to watch a good show, Ge Shu Deying is shouting at the moment, and he is more emotional, and this is to be punished with a cane in front of all the sergeants. I can't hang on my face.
Ashina took a step closer and whispered to Xu Chen: "I don't know, this deputy envoy of the Chishui Army is the nephew of Geshu Shaobao and the son-in-law of the prime minister!" ”
Xu Chen stood there, and after hearing this, he sneered: "Since you are the general's closest relative." Why don't you keep military discipline? If the general is here, he will not show mercy to his subordinates, and the general has always rewarded and punished clearly. When you say that, do you mean that the general has favoritism? ”
"Don't dare!"
"Listen to my commands, and the rod will be thirty!"
Ge Shu Deying's face turned pale directly, and then he was pulled by three soldiers by his arms to the open space on the side, this kid opened his teeth and claws, and shouted with grinning teeth: "You dare to touch me!" I'm going to make you ,,,,,,."
Balabala spat at the stars, but Xu Chen pretended not to hear it, and then shouted to the soldiers: "Don't talk about personal feelings in front of military law, don't say that this person is the general's close relative, even the general himself is here, and he will be severely punished!" ”
This voice was very imposing, and the soldiers of the Chishui Army couldn't help but glance at this very bullish gentleman, and after shouting, they heard Ge Shu Deying's scream.
Every time he hit a military stick, Ge Shu Deying screamed like killing a pig, in the end, Brother Gongzi, where did he suffer such torture, but the sergeants were comfortable to hear, when he hit the 20th board, Ge Shu Deying had already shouted hoarsely, and his voice was not desolate, but at this moment, there was a team of cavalry who hurried over outside the school field.
The dust was flying, and the cavalry came straight to the school grounds, and it was Geshuhan who was in front.
As soon as Ge Shuhan got the news, he rushed over non-stop, his face was not washed, his headache was terrible, this age was bumpy on horseback, if it was someone else, he would have fallen apart a long time ago, in the end, he was a general who had been fighting horses for more than ten years, his face was a little pale, but this momentum was very sufficient.
It was an adjutant general who informed him that Ge Shu Deying had been beaten, and if such an incident happened, of course he had to report it to the chief, and the little guard guarding the gate of Ge Shuhan could not stop him.
Ge Shuhan didn't believe it when he heard that Ge Shu Deying was scolded by the cane, after all, he drank too much wine last night, and his brain was dizzy, but as soon as he heard that the horse didn't notify him to inspect the Chishui Army, he immediately woke up, and rushed over non-stop, still speculating along the way, this horse was so arrogant that even Ge Shu Deying dared to fight?!
When I first arrived at the school, I heard the screams again and again, which was worse than slaughtering a sheep, and I heard Ge Shu Deying's voice, and my heart was too late, and I wanted to stop Xu Chen's absurd behavior when I got off the horse, but the cane was already over.
There was a dead silence on the school field, Ge Shuhan walked to Xu Chen, followed by a few lieutenants, there was a lot of bad momentum, the lying on the ground biting and roaring, the buttocks bloomed, and the blood stained on the crotch of Ge Shuying almost fainted, as soon as he saw Ge Shuhan coming, he crawled to the center of the school field on the ground, and kept shouting: "The general wants to make the decision for me!" ”
After shouting, I fainted.
"Something that doesn't make a living!" Ge Shuhan said this, although he was a little distressed that the eldest nephew was beaten and his ass bloomed, but he didn't show too much expression, and with a serious look, he opened his mouth and said to Xu Chen: "What do you mean by this?" ”
This is to ask Xu Chen why he suddenly inspected the army, and why he beat his eldest nephew unconscious.
Xu Chen clasped his fists at him and saluted: "This adjutant has lost his military appearance, so he will naturally be severely punished, I heard that this person is the general's close relative, and the general has always been strict in governing the army, so there must be no favoritism, it is to teach the general a lesson!" ”
When he said this, Ge Shuhan shuddered angrily. The face is not good, but it is not easy to get angry, and he glanced at Ashina, but Ashina lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
"Humph!" Ge Shuhan waved his hand and snorted coldly, and turned around: "So-and-so won't disturb the horse patrol." ”
After speaking, he turned over and got on his horse and walked away, Xu Chen saluted respectfully and said, "The general walks slowly." ”
Ge Shuhan has the title of the prince and the young guard, and the false title of the imperial historian is naturally very high, and Xu Chen should be respectful. Ge Shuhan came for nothing and left immediately, and Xu Chen continued to patrol the Chishui Army.
Next, I reviewed the weekday drills, because I was about to go into battle to kill the enemy, and Xu Chen had just cleaned up the military discipline and greatly boosted the army's prestige, the soldiers did not dare to slack off, and this drill was divided into hard work, Fang Yi watched and talked with Xu Chen from time to time. I have to admit that the sergeants in this town, whether in terms of military appearance or military discipline, the Praetorian Guards are obviously not the same.
Since the knots have been set. The Praetorian Guard has experienced less war, and the only way to hone the combat effectiveness of an army is to go into battle to kill the enemy, and the current Praetorian Guard has become seriously corrupt. Fang Yi is very clear, and there is not much combat power left.
The sergeant of the Chishui Army saw Geshuhan come to the camp and left in a huff, and did not say anything to the horse. And this horse is so bold, even people like Ge Shu Deying dare to bring it to justice, and they can't help but be shocked, and they also have a fundamental understanding of the horse.
After the inspection, Xu Chen returned to the official office with Fang Yi, and in the afternoon, a guard came to Xu Chen, saying that Ge Shuhan wanted to discuss the crusade against the Turks.
And the reason why Xu Chen beat up that brother Shu Deying in front of the Chishui Army is naturally because of Yang Wei's effect, and it is all for pretending to be forced, if Li is also here, he will definitely admire the five-body body to the ground, is this forced pretending to be small? !
Of course, I already knew in advance that there was such a person in the Chishui Army, Xu Chen would naturally offend Yang Guozhong if he did this, and even Ge Shuhan, Yang Guozhong's side was not a big problem, anyway, Yang Guozhong had long held a grudge against him, and the real purpose was to show Ge Shuhan, and it was also for the soldiers in Hexi.
Because of this expedition, Xu Chen made it clear that he was a vase, and if he really wanted to fight, he would inevitably encounter a crisis, and if it was really a critical juncture, it would be difficult to command these border town soldiers at that time, for this most basic purpose, Xu Chen needed to be in the army, and if there was any accident, he could also command the whole army at the first time.
The reason why I did it for Ge Shuhan is obviously that Xu Chenjue's old guy didn't take him seriously, although he catered to him on the surface, he must have various opinions about Xu Chen in his heart, this matter is not big or small in Ge Shuhan's opinion, the key depends on how he understands it, but this is indeed a bit risky, offending Yang Guozhong is a certainty, if Ge Shuhan really has a grudge because of this matter, it is not easy to do.
After all, Xu Chen chose to do this according to the character of Ge Shuhan read in the history books, and the severity of Ge Shuhan's governance of the army has reached its peak, which Xu Chen can really see, and the reason why Ge Shudeying is placed in the Chishui Army is obviously a last resort.
However, Ge Shuhan holds a grudge, there is no doubt about this, and later An Sishun was framed and killed by this old guy, Xu Chen pretended to be forced like this, obviously he was taking a big risk, if this Ge Shuhan had a small belly and chicken intestines, and he thought that he was making trouble with him and didn't take him seriously, then it would be a different matter.
Even if this is the case, there is actually not much stake for Xu Chen, at least he really recognizes a person, and what will happen to Ge Shuhan at that time, it can only depend on Xu Chen's mood.
Ge Shuhan prepares to meet Xu Chen in the study.
The little old man was wearing a regular suit, his face was still haggard, and his spirit was still full, such a contradictory body was very awkward, so that as soon as Xu Chen saw him, he thought that the old man was about to have a cerebral hemorrhage and half of his body failed.
Sit down in front of the bookcase and start to close your eyes.
Recently, for some reason, Ge Shuhan often has headaches, and when it is severe, he even blackens his eyes for a while, and he always feels that his body bones are not as strong as before.
Geshuhan was thinking about something, closing his eyes for a while, frowning for a while, and the general's mind was now full of this colt.
Xu Juma openly scolded his eldest nephew in the army, obviously this colt also knows the powerful relationship, which makes it clear that he can't get along with him. In normal times, he still wished that someone would punish his eldest nephew, because of Yang Guozhong's face and the tigress at home, Ge Shuhan also hated and angered this eldest nephew, and now he is tarnishing his reputation in the army, how can he not rectify it well.
But this colt made him unable to get off the stage, and he did underestimate the pony sent by the emperor, who was young, was a newborn calf, but also had a bit of momentum, Xu Chen's impression in Ge Shuhan's heart has changed a lot, but Ge Shuhan really can't understand what the purpose of this colt is, this morning's patrol, Ge Shuhan sent someone to secretly monitor, this colt is doing a good look, where it looks like a gentleman, Ge Shuhan didn't want to believe that this horse was blowing Ge Shu Deying who didn't take him seriously, but there would always be a purpose, this kid......
Ge Shuhan thought to himself, Xu Chen asked the guards outside the door to pass the word and prepare to go in...... (To be continued......)
