Gao Jingshi was slightly startled, and after thinking about it, he realized that what she was talking about was that after he was kidnapped, Liu Wei came to save others, but was unmoved by Cao Gan's threat.
In fact, Liu Wei played a very careful trick and deceived Cao Gan, so Gao Pingshi explained for him: "He didn't know me at first. Even if this is the case, it's human nature. What's more, What he did at that time was actually a trick, and he did deceive Cao Gan and almost rescued me."
Tingqin curled her lips and said, "Didn't we almost miss out?"
Gao pragmatically smiled helplessly and was too lazy to argue with the two little girls about this matter. Instead, he continued: "Secondly, Cao Gan was able to pull out a group of hundreds of thieves near the capital, and there must be something hidden among them—— Either Cao Gan has outstanding abilities, or someone above him is protecting him."
"Is someone covering up?" Shang Yue opened her eyes wide: "Young master, are you saying that someone in the government is covering up the thieves?"
Gao pragmatic didn't want to say too much about this matter, and said with a little thought: "There is just such a possibility, but it may not be true - I have already told General Liu about this matter, and just ask him to handle it himself. We don’t have to think too much.”
At this time, Gao Xiaozhuang and Gao Mo happened to arrive. They reported outside, but Gao Pragmatic didn't show any pretense and just let them in to talk.
As soon as Gao Xiaozhuang came in, he apologized first, saying that he was excited when he went into battle for the first time. He was too busy fighting and killing, but did not protect the eldest young master, which led to the eldest young master being kidnapped. He deserved death.
Gao pragmatic waved his hand: "You were sent out by me. The blame for this matter is not yours. Don't think too much about it. Moreover, judging from the situation at the time, Cao Gan acted quickly. Even if you were by my side, you probably wouldn't have time to do anything. "
Gao Xiaozhuang looked a little sad, but couldn't say anything.
After hearing this, Gao Mo seemed hesitant to speak. Gao pragmatic was always good at observing people's words. When he saw this, he said: "Gao Mo, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. You were assigned to the sixth room by my uncle, and now you are sent to work under me by my mother. You should be considered mine now." Gao Mo, I completely trust you, so I hope you can treat me the same way you treat my uncle. I believe you can also see that even though I am young, But not confused.”
"Young Master's words are serious. How can I dare to question my lord?" Gao Mo bowed quickly, then clasped his fists and said, "Since yesterday's incident, I have been thinking about it, and there is always something difficult in my heart. I don't know whether to talk about it or not. .”
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Gao pragmatically asked without hesitation.
Gao Mo seemed to be thinking about something, and he pondered for a moment before speaking: "Yesterday's leader of the thieves, Cao Gan, his martial arts seems to have... the marks of years of hard work in the military."
Gao Pangshi's face became solemn, he sat up straight and stared into Gao Mo's eyes: "What do you mean? You mean, he used to be a soldier?"
"The villain does have such suspicions." Gao Mo frowned: "This person seems to be bold and dares to chase and kill the important generals of the imperial court, but he is quite cautious when facing the enemy. He found that the Liu family's young general He is extremely brave and refuses to step forward easily, but he secretly looks for an opportunity to attack you, the eldest young master...and once he makes a move, he does so without hesitation. Even if the villain intends to destroy his mount, as a result, he He is the leader of a horse thief, but he still fights for his mount and must capture you, the eldest young master—the eldest young master. This kind of style of dealing is not what an ordinary horse thief should do."
Gao Pragmatic frowned, thought for a while, and said: "This suspicion cannot be said to be unreasonable, but it is not sufficient. What if this is just a display of his personal character? Maybe he is originally such a person who does nothing but moves. Where is the Thunder Man?”
"Stand still, move like thunder. This is what people in the military are used to. Isn't this how General Liu and his son suddenly killed themselves?" Gao Mo still insisted on his opinion, and added: "There is also That is, the villain just said that his martial arts are not ordinary martial arts routines, but have a strong military imprint."
"How do you say that?" Gao Pragmatic doesn't understand martial arts. The "martial arts" in his mind are basically things like the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, which obviously have nothing to do with the actual situation at hand. He had seen Liu Wei's majesty on the battlefield, but he had never seen him take out more than a dozen people and then reimburse them on the spot, right? He still kills with a knife, a punch or a kick, which is not as exaggerated as in martial arts novels.
Gao Mo explained: "The martial arts routines in Jianghu generally favor sophisticated moves and flexible footwork, and are more effective than one-on-one. However, at the same time, whether in offense or defense, more emphasis is placed on one's own safety, usually to ensure It is necessary to use moves to defeat the enemy under the premise of absolute safety; military-style martial arts are different. The moves are generally biased towards strong attacks, and the attack style is more fierce. It is important to defeat the enemy with one move, without any unnecessary tricks - this is fatal on the battlefield. Weaknesses. And because when the two armies are fighting, most of them are wearing armor, so they don't pay much attention to dodge. Usually even if they dodge, it's just to avoid being hurt by others - you see Major General Liu's yesterday You will know from his attack that there is no enemy under him at all. This is certainly a manifestation of his superb martial arts and invincible power, but it is also due to the martial arts style in the army."
Gao Pragmatic nodded with all his thoughts in mind, but did not comment immediately.
Gao Mo was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, so he added with gestures: "Then Cao Ganruo is really just a simple and reckless person. When the villain tried to kill the horse yesterday, his first reaction should have been to slash at the villain's hand. He used his hand to force the villain to change his moves and retreat. But he didn't even think about it, and just abandoned his horse and took the enemy - Young Master, when faced with such a critical moment, no matter who he is, he will react with the reaction he is most accustomed to, and will not There was no time to think about how to cover myself.”
Gao pragmatic finally nodded this time to express his approval, but he became more cautious in his words: "In other words, do you think this person is a member of the army, not a thieves? What about his foundation in Bailixia? What's going on?"
Gao Mo shook his head and said: "The villain just said that this person should have been in the military, or at least had been in the military for many years, but he did not say that he must still be in the military. There are a lot of deserters these days, and he might be one of them. one……"
Gao pragmatic stretched out his hand to stop Gao Mo's next words. While thinking, he murmured: "Wait a minute, let me combine a few clues first: first, Cao Gan may have been in the military; second, there are hundreds of people in the Bailixia bandits." However, he was able to move around the capital where the army gathered without being wiped out; once again, Cao Gan dared to launch a large-scale pursuit of the important generals of the imperial court..."
Gao Pragmatic's face darkened. There couldn't be so many coincidences. There must be a hidden secret.
