Liu Yu also touched Qin Jiyong's head with pity and asked: "Where are you children from? How old are you? Where are your parents? If you don't have a family, I will settle you down! This is not the place for you to stay!"
Apparently Liu Yu thought the two of them were refugees fleeing from Jizhou. Thinking about it, as long as there are parents, who would be willing to let such a young child go to the battlefield and suffer such a heavy pain.
Qin Jiyong and Sun Li looked at Qin Ge in astonishment. Qin Ge nodded encouragingly. Qin Jiyong went straight to Liu Yu with a standard military salute and said: "My lord! I am Qin Jiyong. I am eleven years old this year. I am Qin Jiyong." The sons of my family are accompanying my elder brother and uncle on the Northern Expedition this time, in order to drive out the barbarians and strengthen the might of my great Han Dynasty!"
Although Qin Jiyong was young, he was capable of literary and military skills. Influenced by Qin Ge and other brothers, he had great ambitions since he was a child.
Sun Li also imitated Qin Jiyong and gave a military salute, and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "My name is Sun Li, I am ten years old this year, and I live in Rongcheng, Youzhou. My hometown has been destroyed by the Goryeo barbarians, and my father also died in the battle against the barbarians. , my adopted father took pity on me and accepted me as his adopted son. I will follow the ambition of my adopted father and swear to destroy the Hulu until my death!"
Liu Yu looked back at Qin Ge with wide eyes and said in disbelief: "I heard that Boxi supported the Northern Expedition with all his clan strength, but I didn't expect that you would bring such a young clan member to the battlefield! Boxi! Everyone in the Qin family is Hero, you have sacrificed too much for the big man, please accept my respect!"
After speaking, he knelt down directly to Qin Ge. Liu Yu was a veteran in officialdom and naturally knew that Qin Ge's move was to express his determination to the nobles and nobles of Jizhou.
Qin Ge hurriedly supported Liu Yu and said: "Uncle! You are betraying me! Under the overthrow of the nest, there are still intact eggs! Instead of suffering the slaughter and humiliation of the barbarians, living in an ignoble way and becoming a slave to the subjugation of the country, it is better to fight to the death with them. After all, this is the blood of the men of my Qin family, and the blood of my great Han soldiers!" Hearing this, Liu Yu held Qin Ge's hand tightly, and a layer of moisture appeared in his eyes.
Cui Yu, Xin Huang and other patriarchs of the aristocratic families lowered their heads in shame. Cui Yu touched the shocking scars on the two young bodies with trembling hands. The shock Qin Ge gave them today completely refreshed their world view. , and at the same time, they felt a sense of shame in their hearts.
Gongsun Zan sighed long and long: "Bo Xi! I lost to you again!"
Qin Ge invited the leaders of the major forces to the generals' platform, and gave Liu Yu to the top. Everyone sat down one by one. Qin Ge pointed at the generals lined up on the school field and said with a smile: "Bo Gui, the most popular cavalry in the world is Baimayi." Cong, Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and Bingzhou Flying Cavalry, Bogui is an expert in cavalry combat, how do you comment on this simulated battle!"
Gongsun Zan was very impressed by Qin Ge's words. Now that Qin Ge's battle at Snow Wolf Valley shocked China, Gongsun Zan was very happy to get Qin Ge's approval. Now Qin Ge invited him to comment on the military formation drill and legion fighting just now.
Gongsun Zan thought in silence for a long time and then said: "Bo Xi has already said that your infantry army has a strong formation, well-established advance and retreat, brave warriors, the shield formation is as stable as a mountain, the spearmen are unstoppable in breaking through the formation, and the archers are skilled in archery." Extraordinary, and the general commanded him well, if I were to fight head-on with my white horse loyalists, the outcome would be unpredictable! As for this expeditionary cavalry, the cavalry charge point selection and combat timing are just right. For the newly formed cavalry, It’s pretty good to be able to do this! Although I can’t say that I can dominate the world, I can still be considered an elite cavalry!”
At this time, Zhao Yun, Liao Hua, Pilihu and other generals had already come over and lined up behind Qin Ge.
Qin Ge nodded with deep approval and said: "Bo Yue really hit the mark. The expeditionary army has just been formed. Although it has experienced bloody battles, it is not yet an iron army that can fight in every battle. It needs more training! Zilong and Yuanjian "Every word of General Gongsun's words is like gold, you must understand it carefully!" Zhao Yun and Liao Hua clasped their fists in response.
After several sergeants poured tea for everyone, Qin Ge raised his tea cup and said: "There is a military order in the expeditionary army camp, no drinking. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, I should take the lead in practicing it. I will use tea instead of wine today. I hope you will forgive me!" Everyone They all picked up their teacups and drank tea instead of wine.
At this time, Xun Chen and Mao Jie came out, compiled Qin Ge's battle plan into a book, and distributed it to everyone. At the same time, two sergeants carried a giant map and placed it in front of everyone. Xu Shu was already standing in front of the map.
Qin Ge gave everyone a brief introduction to the strategy he had formulated to fight against the Goryeo Tartars: "Let Mr. Xu Shu, Tian Feng, and Xun Chen explain the military strategy, logistics strategy, and civil affairs strategy to everyone respectively!"
Xu Shu and the other three began to take turns telling everyone about the strategic plan, while Kinderman stood silently behind Qin Ge, his eyes like the bright moon and stars secretly observing everyone present.
After the three people finished explaining the strategy, Liu Yu and others were dumbfounded. After a long time, Liu Yu clapped his hands and said: "It's really a plan from heaven! I always thought that Boxi was just an unstoppable general, but I didn't expect that there was such a plan. As someone with great talent in governing the world, I think this strategy is an excellent solution to the war situation in Jizhou, and it must be implemented in its entirety!"
Gongsun Zan also nodded and said: "Cavalry! Avoid the real and attack the weak. Boxi's use of troops is exactly the way to use troops! Zhuojun City is a strong city with a mountain checkpoint at its back. As long as we hold this place, we can attack in all directions. I, Baima Yi, I am willing to follow Boxi’s strategy, but I don’t know if others are willing!”
Cui Yu and others looked at each other for a long time and said: "General Qin's civil affairs policy is an excellent solution to the refugees in Jizhou. We all agree with it, but the Jizhou army has to guard Jizhou, and General Qin wants to gather the army in Zhuojun." , once it fails and is destroyed, the entire Jizhou will probably..."
Gongsun Zan sneered and said: "A bunch of rats! Once the Goryeo Tartars break through Zhuojun and enter the pass, Jizhou will be completely flat and there is no danger to defend. The Goryeo Tartars will attack from all sides. We have to divide our forces to fight. Then we will really be in danger." Time! As long as we can defend Zhuojun, the offensive initiative is in our hands, and we can send cavalry to attack everywhere. The Goryeo Hulu army will inevitably be disorganized and unable to gather forces to fight with all its strength. In addition, Jizhou's heavy crossbowmen are good at defense. If you follow this strategy, you will definitely be able to repel the enemy! But none of you know soldiers or military aircraft, Bo Xi! You are just playing the piano to an ox! If you had been in Youzhou that day, you would not have done this if you listened to my words! I see you It’s just a matter of talking about our strategy!”
It seemed that Gongsun Zan was still brooding about the Battle of Youzhou that day. When Liu Yu heard that Gongsun Zan had revealed his old scars, he was so angry that he trembled all over. Qin Ge coughed a few times, but Liu Yu suppressed his anger and remained silent.
Qin Ge has already seen everyone's performance through Kinderman, and Kinderman gave him a secret message to analyze everyone's psychology: "The Goryeo Hulu army is expected to arrive in Zhuojun in one and a half months, and I am prepared to lead all the troops there personally. Resistance, what Bo Gui just said is unreasonable. If Zhuojun is lost, then Jizhou will not be far away from being destroyed. The Goryeo Tartars will not only massacre innocent people wherever they go, but also drain the spiritual energy of Youzhou's dragon veins and mountains and lakes. , I am afraid that Youzhou will become a desert in the future, this is to destroy the foundation of my great man!"
As soon as Qin Ge said this, all the Jizhou nobles showed fear. The overtone of Qin Ge's words was to tell them that if they could escape, the monks could not escape from the temple. Once Jizhou was destroyed, the ancestral property that the Jizhou nobles had managed for thousands of years would be destroyed. This was tantamount to destroying the temple. The fate of the Jizhou gentry.
Liu Yu stood up at this time and said: "I am an old and dim-witted man. He only has the title of emperor's uncle. He only holds the title of governor to do his best to fight against the barbarians. Today, all the princes are here. I would like to make it clear that no matter how good the strategy is, it must have Led by a hero, I think I can't control the heroes. Today we jointly elect one person to command all the forces in Jizhou and fight against the Hulu with all our strength. I am willing to obey my orders! This sword is the Qinglong Sword! I am willing to use this The sword is entrusted to him!" As he spoke, Liu Yu placed the Qinglong Sword on the table with both hands.
When Qin Ge saw the Qinglong Sword, he felt like Ming Jing. Liu Yu was impressed by the strategy he had formulated. The purpose was to take the opportunity to push himself to the top. Liu Yu had activated the Qinglong Sword with essence and blood and gifted it to Qin Ge. Now the Qinglong Sword It's already an empty shell.
Qin Ge stood up before anyone could express their opinions and said: "The Gongsun family has been a famous general for generations, and Gongsun Bogui is even more powerful among the Hulu. Someone in Qin is willing to recommend Gongsun Zan as the commander-in-chief to fight against the Huru. I am willing to lead the expeditionary army and fight to the death." To fight!”
When Qin Ge said this, everyone was shocked. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Liu Yu deliberately took the opportunity to give Qin Ge power, and now Qin Ge actually recommended Gongsun Zan. Liu Yu was so excited that he almost fainted.
"No!" Xin Huang was upright and objected directly. As soon as Xin Huang spoke, Cui Yu and others stood up one after another and said: "Gongsun Zan is so cruel and willful that he cannot be such a commander-in-chief!"
Seeing this, Liu Yu also said angrily: "Gongsun Zan was in great trouble in Youzhou that day, and he supported his troops with self-respect. How could such a wolf-hearted man leave the safety of the world to him?"
Under everyone's words, they directly described Gongsun Zan as a shameless villain. Kinderman, who was sitting behind Qin Ge, couldn't help but smile and said: "I didn't expect the nobles to have so much resentment against Gongsun Zan. The effect is unexpectedly good." !”
"You bastard! How dare you insult me, old man!" Gongsun Zan was originally a bad-tempered person. Now that he was attacked by a group of people, he became furious. He pulled out the sword from his waist and prepared to fight Liu Yu and others. Unexpectedly, Gongsun Zan actually took action. Liu Yu and Cui Yu, Xin Huang and others were so frightened that they backed away.
Qin Ge quickly stood up, grabbed Gongsun Zan's hand and said: "Bogui, calm down!" After saying that, he turned back to Liu Yu and others: "The Gongsun family has guarded the border for our Han Dynasty for generations. This time Youzhou pressed the border, he risked his life and led the white horse Yi Cong. No one in the world will forget his achievements in rescuing our expeditionary brothers from the tiger's mouth and fighting the Goryeo Hulu in a series of bloody battles! And in the current situation, he can compete with the Karasuma Rangers, the Goryeo Cavalry, and the Yeon Gaisumun Qiongqi Fierce Cavalry. Only white-horse righteous followers! The Youji battlefield cannot be without white-horse righteous followers! The great man cannot be without white-horse righteous followers!"
Qin Ge's tone became higher and higher, and his words were addressed not only to Liu Yu and others, but also to Gongsun Zan.
Gongsun Zan's eyes turned red with excitement when he heard this. Only Qin Ge in the world understood him. He put his sword back into its scabbard and said with a choked voice: "Gongsun Zan spent his whole life as a soldier, and now he has ended up like this. But with Boxi's words, I also This life is not in vain! Since I can’t be tolerated here, I’ll take my leave!” After saying that, he turned around to leave the Chinese army camp.
