"General Gao!"
Seeing Gao Chong suddenly stumble, Chang Mao was startled. He didn't care to chase Li Xuanba. He jumped off the horse and helped Gao Chong up. He asked with concern: "General Gao, are you okay?"
"Don't worry, General Chang. Gao is fine!"
Gao Chong stood up, patted the dust on his body, looked at Li Xuanba who had run away with some reluctance, and said bitterly: "If I hadn't suddenly stumbled, I would have left this fool behind today."
Chang Mao sighed helplessly: "It's up to God to make things happen. It can only be said that this fool's life should not be cut off. That's why General Gao's horse had problems at such a critical time."
Hearing this, Gao Chong couldn't help but cast his eyes on his horse and said: "At first, Your Majesty said that my horse's legs were not strong enough, and he wanted to choose one of the thousand-mile horses collected by the late emperor to give to me. At that time, I heard that It was because the late Emperor had some scruples about his war horse, and because the horse could not bear to follow me for so many years, he rejected His Majesty's kindness. Now that I think about it, I really regret it!"
Chang Mao smiled slightly and said: "Actually, there is nothing to be upset about. Although Li Xuanba ran away, I saw it really just now. Li Shimin, the little thief, was shot by Xue Shuai and fell off his horse. I am afraid he will not survive. Without Li Shimin's command, that fool Li Xuanba is like a bird without wings. In the future, with some small tricks, we can take his head!"
"That's right. If Li Shimin hadn't climbed up and screamed just now, I'm afraid Li Xuanba would have been trapped inside by us."
Gao Chong nodded and said in a deep voice: "I heard that boy Li Shimin is the most capable commander in the Puppet Tang Dynasty. He is responsible for most of Li Yuan's world. Even His Majesty is extremely afraid of him. If he is really killed by Xue today. The handsome man was shot to death with an arrow, and his majesty was relieved of his major concern."
. . . . . . . . . .
The Hulao Pass military office was already full of people, and the atmosphere above the government office was quite heavy. Several military doctors came in and out. They seemed to be quite gentle people at first, but now they all walked in a hurry.
After Li Shimin was rescued by Yuchi Gong and returned to the pass, he issued the order to withdraw with his last breath, and then fell into a coma. This made all the Tang generals in the pass anxious. Except for Li Xuanba, who was afraid that Li Shimin would go crazy if he couldn't stand the stimulation, and coaxed him back, several other Tang generals have since withdrawn their troops. After that, they all waited outside Li Shimin's bedroom and kept looking inside.
Less than half an hour later, several military doctors came out of the room together. Looking at the anxious faces in front of them, they all shook their heads and sighed helplessly.
"How is His Majesty the King of Qin injured?"
Yu Chigong stood at the front. He could see the expressions of the several military doctors after they came out. His heart suddenly "thumped", he strode forward, stared at the several military doctors and shouted sternly.
Several military doctors were so frightened by Yu Chigong's roar that they trembled all over. You looked at me and I looked at you, but no one dared to speak. When Yuchi Gong saw this, he immediately flew into a rage. He reached out to pick up a military doctor in front of him, gritted his teeth and shouted: "What's going on with His Highness King Qin? Tell me quickly!"
Gao Xianzhi, who was standing next to Yu Chi Gong, frowned slightly. He stepped forward to hold Yu Chi Gong to prevent him from making more impulsive moves. He turned to several doctors and said, "You don't have to be afraid. Tell the King of Qin the situation honestly." We, no matter what the outcome is, we will not blame you as long as you try your best.”
After listening to Gao Xianzhi's words, several doctors calmed down a little. The leader bravely said to Gao Xianzhi: "General Gao, although His Highness King Qin is blessed by blessings, that arrow did not hurt the heart and lungs, but shooting that arrow The man is extremely strong. After His Highness the King of Qin was hit by an arrow, he fell off the horse and was jolted. Not only were his ribs broken in many places, but even his internal organs were affected. The villain is not good at studying and he really can't save His Highness the King of Qin. Please also ask all the generals. Condolences!"
Gao Xianzhi looked happy at first, but after hearing the doctor's words, he suddenly looked desperate and murmured: "His Royal Highness Qin is a master of martial arts and generous in his treatment of others. He is a rare hero in the world. What has happened after so many years?" I have never seen strong winds and waves, how could I be defeated by a mere arrow? Is this really God's will?"
"Damn Xue Rengui, the dog thief, I will go out of the city to take that dog thief's life to avenge His Highness the King of Qin!"
When Yuchi Gong heard this, he was furious. He yelled and carried the horse out of the government office. He got on his horse and rushed out of the city.
Pei Xingyan, Guo Zhiyun and other Tang generals were shocked when they saw this, and quickly stepped forward to dissuade Yuchi Gong.
"Let him go!"
Gao Xianzhi suddenly closed his eyes in pain, and spoke to stop several Tang generals: "Although he is reckless, he is not stupid. How could he not understand the consequences of going out to challenge the city? His Highness King Qin treated him with great kindness, and he I want to be buried with His Highness King Qin!"
Several people were obviously shocked by Yu Chigong's loyalty. Guo Zhiyun glanced at Gao Xianzhi with some displeasure and said: "General Gao, are you willing to let such a loyal and brave soldier die like this? Is it possible that you still hate him back then?" Follow Zhao Kuangyin and do the right thing for us?"
Gao Xianzhi opened his eyes and glanced at Guo Zhiyun, then closed his eyes again and said: "Back then, he followed Zhao Kuangyin against the Tang Dynasty and killed many soldiers of our Tang army, including my brothers. I am indeed because of this Things are not going well with him. But I, Gao Xianzhi, am by no means a petty person, but what's the use of stopping him now? Don't you know what his temper is? Even if we stop him now, he will quickly find an opportunity. Sneak out.
Although he was a subordinate general, he was highly regarded by His Highness the King of Qin and became his confidant, just like brothers. Their master-servant relationship really amazed me, Gao Xianzhi. His Highness, King Qin, would not be lonely if he had such a loyal servant following him on Huangquan Road! "
At this point, the tiger general Gao Xianzhi's face was already full of tears, and Guo Zhiyun, Pei Xingyan and others also burst into tears as they listened.
After a long time, Pei Xingyan joined the Tang Army for the shortest time, and under the influence of his father Pei Renji, he had a shallow relationship with several people, so he was the first to come out of his sadness.
Wiping the tears on his face, Pei Xingyan looked at Gao Xianzhi and said, "General Gao, you are the smartest among us now. In your opinion, what should we do?"
When Gao Xianzhi heard this, he wiped away the tears on his face and gritted his teeth and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin treats us with great kindness. Although I cannot be like Yu Chigong, I will still implement the military orders of His Highness the King of Qin and defend Hulao to the end. The Sui army cannot be allowed to enter Luoyang safely!"
