"Once upon a time, we lived in Beizhen, shared the wind and sand, and the wolves were neighbors, what did the Central Plains Splendid have to do with us?

"The soldiers and civilians of the six towns fought for the country, sacrificing their lives and forgetting to die, but they couldn't eat. The people who moved south were quiet and martial, indulging in pleasures, but they were in a high position.

"Beizhen was destroyed, and we abandoned our homeland and went south to start a business, and we finally had today's situation.

"My father and the princes reminisced about the years in Northern Xinjiang, and they were sad, but what you remember is not the life of Beizhen, but the sadness of the passing years.

"A hundred years of life is fleeting, and you should cherish the present and establish fame. In today's world, Yuwen Black Otter seized Guanxi and set up another central government, which is sincere to the heavens to give all the monarchs to build meritorious deeds.

"Now the Kanto region is weak, and the Kanto region is strong, and it is the right time to unify the Great Wei. If the years are delayed, so that Kansai will survive in the world, and the future generations will be left behind, and the times will change, who knows what will happen in the future?

"King Goujian of Yue is committed to being a servant, and he can still swallow Wu. If our children and grandchildren are defeated by the thieves of the West, we will work hard for several years and pay for everything, and our children and grandchildren will also be bullied by the Westerners and inferior.

"I, the son of He Liuhun and the son of the King of Bohai, Gao Cheng and Gao Zihui, promise to you that if this battle is against the west, those below the county prince will be promoted to the first rank, and they will be promoted to the county princes, and there will be more than 1,000 households in the food town, and if the monarchs have military exploits, they will be rewarded separately, and the descendants of the Gao family will share the wealth with the descendants of the monarchs!"

In fact, Gao Cheng and Gao Huan had a private discussion about this reward, and it was not without telling him, after all, Gao Cheng also prevented a real general from raising a coward, just like Peng Le, who let go of Yuwentai in the Battle of Bishan.

He did not fan the confrontation with the background of Huaishuo and Wuchuan, but replaced it with Kanto and Kansai, after all, there were Wuchuan generals such as Hu Lu Qiangju under Gao Huan, and there were also 4,000 Wuchuan cavalry under Gao Cheng.

Under the special power system of the Gao family, Gao Cheng is not only the identity of the heir, in the eyes of the generals, he is the leader of the Luoyang faction who can compete with Jinyang, and he is a well-deserved number two person in the Kanto region.

Of course, now the father and son of the Gao family are deliberately transforming the two major factions of Jinyang and Luoyang to prepare for Gao Cheng's future succession.

The generals who were originally waiting with bated breath listened to Gao Cheng's promise, and everyone was in high spirits, no longer feeling sad before, and their minds were full of making a difference in pacifying the war in Kansai and fighting for a prominent background for future generations.

After all, in terms of political credibility, King Xiao Gao has always given people the impression of the words 'not like a father'.

If Gao Huan promised, everyone would inevitably murmur in their hearts, not knowing whether it was true or not, but now that Gao Cheng is speaking, the generals are all worried, they are not worried about whether Gao Cheng is capable of doing it, after all, it is just a promotion to the title, in the Eastern Wei Dynasty of the Gao family's father and son, how can there be any difficulty.

So they all looked at Gao Huan, wondering what King Gao thought about this.

Over the years, the Gao family's father and son have acted a lot, and everyone doesn't know if today's play was arranged in advance.

But seeing Gao Huan put down the wine cup in his hand, he shook his head and said with a wry smile:

"The son has grown up and has his own ideas, since Ah Hui has made a decision, and he doesn't dare to put his beak as a father, according to Ah Hui's words, if the peace is reversed, those below the county prince will be promoted to the first rank, if the county prince is the county prince, he will be rewarded with thousands of households, and if there is a war merit, he will be rewarded separately."

After saying that, Gao Huan stood up and held up the wine cup, and said to the generals in the hall:

"I drink this cup with all the kings, and I look forward to the efforts of the kings, playing the son of heaven, and Lubu repaying the victory!"

The generals, including Gao Cheng, who returned to his seat, raised their lamps in return.

The sad atmosphere at the banquet was dispelled, everyone laughed and laughed, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

After sending off the well-fed generals, Gao Cheng was called back to Gao Huan's handsome tent, but King Xiao Gao specially ordered his guards to fetch two basins of hot water.

"This time it was for my father Meng Lang to be reckless, and he almost fell into the hearts of the army."

Gao Huan faced his mistakes honestly.

It turned out that this time the Gao family father and son really did not face the script in advance, and Gao Cheng's performance was also to see that the crowd would be depressed, so it re-aroused everyone's fighting spirit.

Gao Cheng just chuckled, he knew that since the defeat of the Western Expedition, Gao Huan had been depressed in his heart, and he would always be unable to let go of his feelings if he didn't worship a single day.

Soon, a guard came in with two basins of hot water, Gao Cheng retired from the guard, personally washed Gao Huan's face, and asked him to step on another basin.

"Xiaozhang and Xiaoyu are not here, who is Ah Hui doing today?"

Gao Huan laughed.

When did the two fathers and sons have this kind of warmth, Gao Huan beat and scolded Gao Cheng, and Gao Cheng found a criminal official who looked similar to his father and beat him.

Before Gao Huan suffered a setback, mutual suspicion and intrigue were the norm for their father and son to get along.

While washing Gao Huan's feet, Gao Cheng said softly:

"Although there is a reason for today's incident, but after all, it is an arrogance, I asked people to fetch hot water, I thought that when my father blamed him, he would please his father in order to avoid punishment, and I walked into the handsome tent with trepidation, and I never thought that my father not only blamed, but talked to my son about his mistakes, and my son realized that my father was no longer the father who beat and scolded his son at every turn in his impression."

When Gao Huan heard this, he was silent for a long time, and suddenly, he said to Gao Cheng:

"Ah Hui, don't call your father again, call grandpa."

"Grandpa."

In the handsome tent, father and son are alone, and twenty-year-old Gao Cheng calls his father softly as when he was a child.

Since he was crowned king, Gao Huan has rarely heard this title again, and when people are old, they always like to recall some past events.

Gao Huan carefully looked at Gao Cheng, who washed his feet, this handsome face kept changing in his sight, sometimes it was the appearance of a baby when he was born, sometimes it was the appearance of a staggering step when learning to walk, and sometimes it was the naughty appearance of shouting for riding a horse when he was a teenager......

His face kept changing, and finally he was fixed on the image of patiently rubbing his feet.

After a long sigh, Gao Huan stroked the top of Gao Cheng's head and said:

"Ah Hui, I have a hunch that my life will not be long......"

"Grandpa......"

"After listening to me, this time in the west, no matter whether I win or lose, I will transfer the military power to you, if God has mercy, give me another year or two, I will not ask about the military and politics, only focus on raising grandchildren at home.

"I'm not a good father, I've had little company for you and your brothers over the years, maybe it's because God sees me He Liu's whole body is pitiful, so that I have such an excellent son, and I can let go of power with peace of mind.

"Maybe I should have done this a long time ago, instead of waiting until the end of your life, your ability is far better than that of a father, if you don't have my shackles, let you do it, I'm afraid that the north has already gone from chaos to rule.

"The big defeat three years ago was because my father was stubborn and didn't listen to Ah Hui's advice, so I worked hard today and was my father...... Repent! ”

After all, it was already a tearful stream.

Gao Cheng found a clean cloth and wiped away his tears for Gao Huan, it stands to reason that Gao Cheng, who is about to take full power, should be ecstatic, but there is no trace of joy in his heart.

has been a father and son with Gao Huan for so many years, and he is often beaten and scolded by this self-proclaimed anxious person at any time, but the power he gives still confirms his love for his son.

At this moment, Gao Cheng, who was greedy for power, was no longer shaken by power, and all he wanted was to serve Gao Huan for a few more years, even if Gao Huan continued to hold military power after the war.

He is still young, and he has time to fight for the future, He Liuhun still has a few more years, even if he was not injured by a fall from a horse three years ago, the original time and space only lived to the first month of 547.

Gao Huan said that his life was short, and Gao Cheng also watched his body not as good as a year after year, and he also counted it in his heart.

is clearly only forty-five years old, but he already looks like an old man in his last years, full of gorgeous hair, and his figure is slightly awkward, no longer the tall appearance in his memory.

"The child does not seek power over the world, but he asks his father to be healthy and happy."

Gao Cheng let Gao Huan stroke his head and said emotionally.

Knowing a son is not as good as a father, Gao Cheng's desire for power and performance, with Gao Huan's wisdom of knowing people, how can he not understand, but this time, he can feel Gao Cheng's sincerity from the heart, maybe this is the bond between father and son.

The father and son looked at each other for a long time, silent, until the water in the basin became cold, Gao Cheng wiped Gao Huan's feet, and after serving him to rest, he walked out of the handsome tent.

The moonlight was bright, Gao Cheng handed over the sewage to the guards to deal with, and he went to find Hu Luguang, who was on guard outside the camp.

It turned out that when everyone was feasting and drinking before, in order to prevent Yuwentai from attacking the camp, Gao Huan and Gao Cheng arranged for people to patrol and guard ten miles away.

In fact, even if Yuwentai got the news, he couldn't catch up with him in Weibei, Gao Huan and Gao Cheng's move was nothing more than being bitten by a snake once and being afraid of the well rope for ten years.

Gao Cheng returned to the Gyeonggi army camp, but did not go in, and waited for Hu Luguang outside the camp.

Soon, Hu Luguang, who received the news, came back from his horse, but saw Gao Cheng raising the two jars of wine in his hand and smiling at him.

The two found a small earthen bag, sat on it, and one of them divided a jar of wine, and talked under the moon.

Gao Cheng talked about Gao Huan's words today, and mentioned that he was looking for someone to pretend to be Gao Huan back then, wantonly beating, scolding and humiliating, and his words were full of remorse.

"Ah Hui doesn't need to blame himself, when the prime minister punished you without guilt, it is normal for you to have grievances, just impulsively, no one will blame you, and only you and I know about this matter, that person was scratched by me, abandoned the corpse in the wilderness, and no one will mention it again."

This kind of thing, fortunately, happened between Gao Cheng and Hu Luguang, if it were someone else, he would really worry that Gao Cheng would kill his mouth.

In the early years, Hu Luguang did a lot of shady things for Gao Cheng, such as smothering Yuan Kuan, and assassinating Yang Kuan, the brother of Yang Su's clan, so that Yang Su could escape the responsibility of leaking secrets.

The relationship between them is not only a master-slave relationship, but also a brotherly relationship, not a brotherly relationship between Gao Cheng and Gao Yang, nor a life-and-death brotherly relationship between Gao Huan and Er Zhuzhao and He Bayue.

The two drank and talked on the small mound, until they had drunk all the wine in the altar, and then returned to the camp.

"Does Zihui need me to reveal the words of the Prime Minister to Grandpa?"

Gao Cheng patted Hu Luguang's shoulder, shook his head and said:

"Drinking with Mingyue today, but I was touched in my heart, and I didn't have any other intentions, Mingyue didn't need to think about it, I went to visit Uncle Hulu, so I came back to rest quickly."

Back in the tent, Gao Cheng was angry and didn't fight anywhere, Hu Luguang was good at everything, it was this mouth, and he was too sincere.

He pulled him to drink in the middle of the night, and revealed to him the news that Gao Huan was going to completely delegate power, so naturally he wanted him to inadvertently leak it to Hu Lujin, and then Hu Lujin revealed it to his relatives in private, so that everyone was somewhat mentally prepared.

Only people like Hu Luguang and Gao Ji will ask themselves face to face, how else can he answer, can he say:

'That's right, I have a plan for you tonight. ’

You don't have to be a smart person like Duan Shao, but if you have a little crooked intestines, you won't ask such stupid questions.

Gao Cheng couldn't help but secretly think about it, did Hu Luguang understand the deep meaning of his words, I asked him to visit Hu Lujin to rest, he wouldn't really think that I was asking him to say hello to his father.

The facts did not surprise Gao Cheng, Hu Luguang really just went to ask Hu Lujin for peace, and returned to the Gyeonggi army camp.

This time in the west, Hu Lu's family was fully dispatched, not only Hu Lujin, but also Hu Luguang's brother Hu Luxian, and Hu Luguang's uncle Hu Luping, as well as a group of cousins.

On the second day, after knocking on the side and answering the question, Gao Cheng also gave up, even if there was really an accident at that time, with his prestige, ability and strength, there would be no twists and turns.

Therefore, Xiao Gao's desire for power is extremely strong, and when he was in Gao Huan's tent, he was only infected by emotions for a while, and he immediately began to plan for power when he left the camp.

Even when talking about the 'filial piety' of the year, it also implies that Hu Luguang cares about this matter very much, and he doesn't want outsiders to know, of course, looking at Gao Huan's old state now, he does have regrets in his heart.

Jin is not enough, no one is perfect, Gao Cheng is just lustful, and he is such a father who is full of power desires, Gao Xiaozhang, Gao Xiaoyu and the unborn brothers can have to survive.

Perhaps in the later years of King Xiaogao, a big filial son will emerge among the sons, shouting:

'If the old thief doesn't go, it's better to splash blood in the palace and end the rest of his life, so as to become the joy of amnesty in the world. ’

staged a Gao Qi filial piety story, of course, whether Xiao Gao Wang can live until that time is still a matter of two words.

Since the army entered Shayuan, the march of the Eastern Wei army has slowed down, and three years ago, the reeds of Shayuan were eaten clean by the victims.

In recent years, the spring ploughing in Weibei has often been destroyed by Dou Tai, but Weinan can produce with peace of mind, so although the people of Guanzhong are not rich, at least they don't need to go to the reeds to eat reeds.

Therefore, there are many lush reeds in the sand garden now, and during the march, Gao Cheng always has to send people to clean up the reeds in advance, if it is a tailwind, then set fire, if it is a headwind, then drive the people to cut down, that is, not to give Yuwentai a chance to hide in the reeds to ambush.

And this is exactly the battle plan that Yuwentai drew up before, that is, to choose an ambush in the reeds in the sand garden, and seduce him personally, and when the enemy is scattered due to the pursuit formation, the ambushes on both sides will be killed from the left and right.

This is the strategy of the Battle of Shayuan in history, but three years ago the reeds were bare, and there was nowhere to hide.

Unexpectedly, three years later, when he met Gao Cheng, a reed killer, he wondered if something had happened to Xiao Gao Wang when he was young, and since then he has had a psychological shadow on the reeds.

Yuwentai has no way of knowing, he can only think that Gao Cheng is too cautious, outnumbered, and he is afraid of this kind of opponent.

There is not much difference in the number of soldiers between the two sides, 236,000 in the Eastern Wei, 148,000 in the Western Wei and 50,000 Shu soldiers in the Southern Liang, a total of 198,000 people.

However, in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, except for Gao Cheng's 1,000 personal guards, the rest were all soldiers, and the Western Wei side had 48,000 soldiers, 100,000 state and county soldiers, and the Southern Liang Shu soldiers only had 10,000 soldiers, and the remaining 40,000 were state and county soldiers.

The overall military strength was 236,000 to 198,000, but the number of soldiers was 235,000 to 58,000.

If the plan failed, Yuwentai had to gather the generals to find a way, anyway, the Eastern Wei Dynasty was grinding and walking slowly.

As for the Eastern Wei camp, everyone will be fanned by Gao Cheng, and everyone is eager to fight, but before sending troops, they have already formulated a strategy of steady and steady progress, and no one has come out to oppose it.

A total of more than 930,000 people were mobilized, such a large financial investment, this battle really went wrong, except for the Gao family father and son, no one could afford to carry this pot, so everyone simply kept silent on the big strategy, and let Gao Huan and Gao Cheng discuss, after all, if they really use their brains, there are really few people in the army who can match these two fathers and sons.

After all, the Eastern Wei Dynasty is famous for its outstanding generals, and there are still a few wise generals, as for the strategists, in fact, compared with the famous and unparalleled wisdom of the previous dynasties, the Eastern Wei Dynasty is also one of the shortcomings.

However, Gao Cheng and Gao Huan, who got rid of the intelligence reduction buff, are enough to make up for this shortcoming.

Located between Luoshui and Weishui, the sand garden is not small, and the Eastern Wei army has been grinding for many days before finally coming to the north bank of Weishui.

In winter, the Wei River froze, and even if the ice surface was chiseled, it could be crossed by wading, so the Eastern Wei deliberately avoided the Weinan camp of the Western Wei Dynasty and camped in another section of the river to confront each other.

But in the end, it was the labor expedition, and the transportation cost of grain was also placed here, and for a long time, even if the Eastern Wei Dynasty was rich, it could not bear such losses, and Yuwentai often disturbed the grain road.

However, because of the existence of Yubi, a material distribution center, Yuwentai's attack did not play a big role.

When the stalemate was at a standoff, Gao Cheng had a bad idea again, and he asked Gao Huan to summon Wang Sizheng and use Hulu Jin to take charge of the jade.

Anyway, the army carried 700,000 people, and there was no shortage of manpower, so it was better to simply build a city in Weibei by Wang Sizheng and force Yuwentai to attack.

After all, if you really want to do nothing, Yuwentai is really willing to spend it with them, no matter what, he eats Chang'an rice, even if the Eastern Wei Dynasty has the material distribution center of Yubi, but the grain produced by Yubi can not meet the needs of more than 930,000 people, and it has to be transported from Jinyang, and Jinyang grain is also transferred from the Sanhe area.

This is the disadvantage of raising a large army and going deep into enemy territory.

If you are in a hurry, you may be in danger of destruction, and if you are slow, you can eat up the finances.

If you really want to follow Gao Cheng's heart, you can't send too many troops, and the people can bring less and bring less, so they will seek to break the enemy's main force in the field.

But before Gao Huan completely let go, this family is not in charge of Gao Cheng, he only has the right to suggest this kind of major matter, and it is Gao Huan who makes the final decision.

Gao Huan made up his mind to fight the battle of the country, and made a long preparation for this, and he was ready to finish this battle, regardless of success or failure, and then recuperate for a few years, which is why he was willing to hand it over to Gao Cheng after the war.

Originally, he commanded the army, Gao Cheng was in power, if he wanted to recuperate, he would not let go of the military power himself, and it would not be useful, after all, the Gao family did not have the controversy of the heir.
