Chapter 237: Guo Potian's True Thoughts
According to the original schedule, Huang Xu went to see Guo Potian early the next morning.
"Brother Guo, I haven't seen you for a long time, it's always been good?" Seeing Guo Potian, Huang Xu greeted him warmly.
"Brother, you're finally back." Guo Potian's face was sad, and he saw him take two steps forward, patted Huang Xu's shoulder, and sighed.
"Brother Guo seems to be in a bad mood?" Huang Xu pretended to be puzzled.
"Brother should have heard of it, the prince has already returned to the west, thinking of this, my heart is like a knife, I can't replace the prince with my body, how can I feel better" Guo Potian said sullenly.
"Oh, I just heard that the prince is seriously ill, but I don't know that the prince has passed away, has the prince really left? Are you sure? Brother Guo, really? Huang Xu's performance looks very realistic, it's not that he doesn't respect Shi Dakai, but he must use it to win Guo Potian's trust.
"Well, didn't Mr. Zhao convey it to his brother?" Guo Potian looked at Huang Xu's face suspiciously.
"I just came back, and I haven't had time to talk to Mr. Zhao in depth, so I hurried to see Brother Guo, so I don't know about the prince." Huang Xu's face was gloomy.
"It's no wonder, Wang Ye Xian went, my heart hurts." Guo Potian sighed with a choked voice.
"Just imagine the prince's talent, I didn't expect that the sky would not be a holiday, Brother Guo's mood, and the younger brother felt the same way." Thinking of Shi Dakai's kindness to himself, Huang Xu was not grief-stricken.
"Originally, I was worried that after the prince left, the army would be dissipated because of the lack of the backbone, and I was worried, but fortunately, my brother is back, and I should be worry-free." Guo Potian didn't know if he was glad to say this. Or something else.
"Brother Guo looks up to the younger brother too much, how can the younger brother be so important to Brother Guo." Huang Xu said modestly.
"Brother said this is not to treat me as a big brother, although you and I have not been friends for a long time, but have always been honest with each other, I am very impressed by the talent of brothers, if you can get the help of brothers in the future, what is the Qing army afraid of." I can hear what Guo Potian said from the bottom of his heart.
"Brother Guo, don't praise the little brother anymore, since the eldest brother said so, although the younger brother is not talented, he is willing to do his best to help Brother Guo, what does Brother Guo need, even if he commands, the little brother will never postpone." Of course, Huang Xu can't refuse.
"That's great, it's the most haode news I've heard in a while." Guo Potian said with a hint of joy on his face.
"Brother Guo, junior brother still has a question, I need your help to answer it." HUANG Xudao.
"You're welcome, brother, please." Guo Potian was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Huang Xu meant.
"After Wang Yexian left, the little brother was most worried that the dragons would be leaderless, so as to give the Qing army an opportunity, so I am ready to propose to the generals that Brother Guo should take the position of commander of the three armies and lead the army to destroy the Qing army." Huang Xu hugged his fist to Guo Potian and said solemnly.
This is the strategy set by Huang Xu, pretending not to know anything, and seeing how Guo Potian reacts.
"This, this..." Guo Potian didn't expect Huang Xu to say this, this was far from his previous conjecture, and he was speechless for a while.
Originally, what he was most afraid of was that Huang Xu would grab this position with him, so he would join forces with other generals to take the position of coach one step ahead, but now Huang Xu mentioned that he wanted to propose himself to be the coach, which means that it is clear that he Huang Xu never thought of being the coach, so what Huang Xu said is true, doesn't it seem that he Guo Potian is a villain's heart? It's no wonder that Guo Potian was speechless for a while.
"What, is Brother Guo unwilling?" Huang Xu thought it was funny.
"Well, that's not good." Guo Potian said embarrassedly.
"What's not haode, just imagine, in this military camp, in terms of merit, fame, and strength, who can compare with Brother Guo, in my opinion, Brother Guo is the best choice for this coach." Huang Xu means that Guo Potian should be benevolent.
"However, you are the deputy marshal, and it is reasonable that you should sit in the position of the commander." Guo Potian was very moved by Huang Xu's call, and had to say something that he didn't want to say.
"Deputy marshal, what deputy marshal, I don't understand what Brother Guo is talking about?" Huang Xu pretended to be more and more like.
"Yes, yes, you don't know about this yet, that's the case..."Guo Potian said in detail about Huang Xu's appointment as deputy marshal, to the effect that Zhao Xiaofeng basically agreed with what Zhao Xiaofeng said to Huang Xu.
"That's it, what is this, don't say that this is just a deputy marshal, even if Bixia and the prince really give me the position of marshal, I won't sit either, because I think I'm not the most suitable candidate for the coach, only Brother Guo is, so Brother Guo doesn't need to have so many concerns, I won't fight with Brother Guo." Huang Xu's attitude is very sincere.
Huang Xu's words made Guo Potian a little embarrassed, he felt that he had thought too much before, Huang Xu didn't think about it at all, but he was so reasonable, he knew it was so, why did he have to do that kind of villainous thing, fortunately, what he did, Huang Xu didn't know it, and it was too late to remedy it. After thinking about it, Guo Potian decided to tell Huang Xu in detail about the shady things he had done, so as to give Huang Xu's heart and let Huang Xu help him in the future.
Thinking of this, Guo Potian made up his mind and was ready to tell Huang Xu and Pan everything.
"Brother, there is one thing about being an elder brother, I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I still want to tell you that this matter is something I did wrong, I hope that after my brother listens to it, he can have a lot of adults, and he doesn't have the same general knowledge as an elder brother." Guo Potian took a deep breath and said.
"Brother Guo, the relationship between the younger brother and you is extraordinary, and the elder brother will say that it is okay." HUANG Xudao.
From Guo Potian's tone, Huang Xu could hear that Guo Potian must have felt sorry for himself, so he felt very ashamed, and what he did was sorry for robbing the position of coach that should have belonged to him.
"Speaking of which, the position of the coach should be sat by Brother Huang, but Brother Huang has not been back in Anqing Mansion, and the situation is urgent, so, after the discussion of the generals, Zuihou decided that I will be the interim coach, at that time, I was stubborn, but I can't rely on everyone's soft grinding and hard bubbles, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, I thought for a long time, and succumbed to the opinions of the generals. After Guo Potian finished speaking, he bowed to Huang Xu.
"Brother Guo, look at you, where do you speak, what is my relationship with you, what kind of person do you think of your little brother again, don't blame, don't blame. Definitely not to blame the big brother. This position of coach was originally inhabited by the virtuous, so, Brother Guo, you are doing the right thing. Exactly right. Little brother, I am convinced. From today onwards, I will definitely obey your leadership and assist you in exterminating the Qing army. Until the unification of China and the immortal great cause" Huang Xu said such a paragraph very naturally, which really moved Guo Potian for a while.
"Brother, in the future, there will be no such title as a commander or subordinate between us, you are still you, my brother Guo Potian, I am still the original me, we don't distinguish between each other, work together to do a good job of this army, and jointly complete the great cause you said, how about it?" Guo Potian was arrogant.
"It's not good." Huang Xu was embarrassed.
"There's nothing to disclaim, tomorrow I will convene a meeting of all the generals to announce the news of your return, brother, and tell the whole army that you will command the whole army with me as a deputy marshal, and the position is equal to mine, and we will be in charge of the entire front-line army together." Guo Potian looked very happy.
"Still no, I think it's more appropriate for Brother Guo to exercise the power of the coach alone." Huang Xu pretended to postpone it.
"Brother, don't talk about it, it's settled." Guo Potian said seriously.
"This, this..." Huang Xu looked like he was catching ducks on the shelves.
"Brother, hurry up, show a little manly appearance, let's just say it" Guo Potian waved his hand and said.
"Brother Guo, look at this matter, my brother can't afford to bear such a heavy burden." Huang Xu said.
"It's okay, isn't there still me, don't be afraid, everyone will discuss everything." Guo Potian said.
"Since this is the case, the little brother is better to be respectful than to obey his fate." Huang Xu said.
"Okay, okay, that's a good brother." Guo Potian was happy, and it seemed that a big stone in his heart had finally fallen to the ground.
"Brother Guo, the younger brother has another proposal, I want to talk to the eldest brother," Huang Xu said.
"Okay, say." Guo Potian said.
"We currently have two major things to do, first, to mourn for the prince, and second, to find out the true intention of the Qing army to prevent the Qing army from sneaking attack. Huang Xu said.
"Well, it's really a top priority, do you have any good advice from my brother?" Guo Potian asked.
"For the funeral of the prince, we have to wait for the holy decree, and it is not a matter of time and a half to find out the intentions of the Qing army, so what we need to do now is to declare that the prince is seriously ill, and you and I will temporarily exercise the power of the commander to stabilize the army's heart, only when the army's heart is stable, can we strengthen the internal military liliang coordination, and prepare for the Qing army's attack, in order to be invincible, at the same time, send additional manpower to infiltrate the Qing army's camp to find out the situation, and strive to learn more favorable news, That's what I want to say. Huang Xu said.
"Okay, that's it." Of course, Guo Potian has no opinion.
Huang Xu discussed other matters with Guo Potian, and then left. (To be continued......)
