C36 How Can a Simple Scripture be an Honest Person

At the end of the day, the Liaodong's Wu Huan Camp was filled with people shouting and cheering. There were many kinds of Black Hole Cavalry under the banner of their tribe, all staring at the king's tent.

Following the melodious and desolate sound of a horn, the red-armored Greedy King walked out of the King's Cage with his head held high and chest puffed out. He climbed onto a temporary wooden platform set up in front of the King's Cage and swept his eyes over it seriously, beckoning to a Magus who was waiting below the platform.

This Magus had a complicated design drawn on his face. After reaching the stage, he shook his drum and started a wild dance. After dancing, he knelt on the ground and prayed. Everyone, including Greedy King, knelt on the ground and prayed.

After the prayer was done, the Magus had someone bring him a brazier, took out a piece of tortoise shell, and threw it in. The tortoise shell quickly broke into pieces. The Magus looked at the cracked shape of the tortoise shell and raised his hands to the sky, shouting excitedly.

"What did he say?" Gongsun Xu, who was sitting on his horse outside, turned his head and whispered to Yan Rou.

Yan Rou replied in a low voice, "With the decree of the gods, this battle shall be won! The gods will bless the warriors to cut off the heads of their enemies, capture their herds and women, and so on. "

'Only people with religious beliefs would be able to be strong! ' Suddenly, he felt that it was a good choice to use religious means to control and weaken the Hu people. In his previous life, he had read a paper on the causes of the decline of the Mongolian cavalry in the late Ming Dynasty, one of the most important reasons being the Manchu division of the Mongolian ministries and the other being the Manchu efforts to inject Tibetan Buddhism into the Mongolian aristocracy.

At this moment, Wu Guotuo came out from the side and interrupted Gongsun Xu's train of thought. "Esteemed customer, Sir Ku Le has asked me to come and ask if he is going to leave with you first or with the King's men."

"Let him follow the Greedy King." Gongsun Xu answered without hesitation. Before the end of this battle, it would be better to let Ku Le stay under Kurna's command.

"As you wish!" Esteemed guest, I wish you a safe journey. " Wu Guozi nonchalantly cupped his hands and saluted. Then, he turned around and ran towards Ku Le's flag.

"Let's go." Gongsun Xu lifted the reins and prepared to leave.

"Esteemed customer, please wait a moment!" When Ku Le heard Wu Guanzi's report, he ignored the surprised gazes from the crowd and called over Gongsun Xu.

"What is it?" Gongsun Xu asked with a frown.

Ku Le's face was filled with embarrassment and anxiety. He pleaded softly: "Young Marquis, can you allow all the women and children from your tribe to move to Youzhou today?"

"Oh? "Why?" Gongsun Xu knew full well that Ku Le would not be able to survive under Kurna's hands, but he pretended to be at a loss as he asked.

"This …" Ku Le hesitated for a moment. He turned around and looked at Kurna, who was standing on the wooden platform, and said angrily, "This time, uncle has cut off all provisions for our tribe."

Under Ku Le's eager gaze, Gongsun Xu deliberately muttered to himself for a while before reluctantly nodding: "Okay! Let your people go to the Youzhou today, someone will take care of them. Remember not to get into conflict with your Uncle Wang. "

Ku Le was overjoyed. He punched his left chest and bowed, "Thank you, Young Marquis. Your subordinate will be forever grateful!"

Liaodong Wu Huan's days were not easy. In addition to Kurna's occasional attacks on the inside, Ku Le was extremely anxious for the food and drinks of his men. It was rare for Gongsun Xu to agree to accept it, so how could he not be relieved? However, what Ku Le didn't know was that just like how he treated the old and weak soldiers in Changli County, Gongsun Xu would hand his men over to Liu Yu and his son, Liu Yu and his son, Liu Yi, to deal with.

"Follow my people, I won't let them suffer a loss!" Gongsun Xu snickered in his heart and patted Ku Le's shoulder.

Ku Le bowed again to express his gratitude: "This Subordinate will definitely remember Young Marquis' kindness!"

"Alright, I'll be leaving first." Gongsun Xu waved his hand and was about to ride his horse away when he suddenly saw Er Yu and Ju Zi also mounted their horses and waved towards them from the entrance of the tent.

Ku Le also happened to turn around and see Er Yu waving her hand. He was immediately overjoyed. Yesterday, Miss Er Yu didn't even look at me and greeted me before she left. The young duke walked slowly down the path and called out to Lady Er Yu!

Gongsun Xu waved at Er Yu and ran out with his horse in hand.

After watching Gongsun Xu's figure disappear into the distance, Er Yu quickly left, escorted by Ju Zi and the other low level warriors. When Ku Le arrived, he could only see the back of a slim figure. He couldn't help but sigh regretfully.

By the time Gongsun Xu's group arrived at Pastoral Horse Plain, it was already around Yin hour and three-quarters of an hour.

He had chosen to set up camp on a mountainside. Even though it was impossible for there to be an enemy attack on this area, he still laid down fences, deer skin s, repulsive horses, arrow towers, etc. The camp was even more organized. There were fire ditches between the tents, and squads of soldiers were constantly patrolling the camp.

In his previous life, Gongsun Xu had also set up a camp in the wilderness, but he had only used ready-made tents and sleeping bags. He stopped at a hillside not far from the camp and looked at the orderly camp in front of him. His evaluation of the Single Scripture had increased a lot, after carefully looking at the layout of the camp several times and memorizing it in his mind, he ran to the gate of the camp.

When they were three or four hundred steps away from the camp, the sentry on the archer tower behind the gate drew his bow and shouted, "Incomer, stop and state your name!"

Yan Rou shouted, "partial general, Gongsun Xu has returned! Quickly open the city gates!"

The White Horse Camp was built up by Gongsun Xu, and according to the agreement he made with Gongsun Zan, he naturally became the commander of the White Horse Camp. If this was in the past, he would definitely have been appointed by the Sun family. However, all the dukes with authority now in his hands had arbitrarily made promises, so a mere partial general was not a problem.

The sentry was from the White Horse Camp, so he shouted loudly, "It's Yan Academy Officer's voice, open the gate and inform the general."

Except for special circumstances, no horse was allowed to gallop inside the camp. Once the group of people entered the camp, they all dismounted. Brother Gongsun Jia brought the others back to the barracks. Gongsun Xu and Yan Rou quickly walked towards the camp.

Upon reaching the entrance, the guard standing guard reported loudly, "Reporting to General, partial general, Gongsun Xu, and Jianhan, Yan Rou, are here to seek an audience."

His official title was Gongsun Zan Feng's fourth grade general of the Left Army. Although he was only one level higher than Gongsun Xu's partial general, he was qualified to be the commander in chief of the army.

"Come in!" The voice of the Single Classic was loud and had a hint of hoarseness to it.

When the two of them entered, they found that there was only a tiny bit of oil left in the oil lamp in the Commander's tent. Its eyes were red and its face was covered in oil. It was obvious that it hadn't rested well during the night.

"General Gongsun Xu (Yan Rou) greets General." The two of them clasped their fists and bowed to Zhang Xuan.

"Exempt!" Sit down. " He waved his hand and waited for the two to sit down. Then, he looked at Gongsun Xu and asked, "Son, did it go smoothly?"

Gongsun Xu leaned forward slightly and replied, "Reporting to General, everything is going well! At most an hour, the Greedy King will lead eight thousand men to this place. "

"Very good!" Satisfied, Zou nodded, rubbed his forehead and said: "Kurna's men can only fight with a maximum of 13,000 taels of silver. They can also bring 8000 men, so it's not that much of a joke."

Gongsun Xu suddenly laughed, "There is something I have yet to report to the General. Kurna's nephew, Ku Le, is about to lead the entire tribe to my Youzhou. He has even agreed to send the eldest son, Ku Si, to the Marquis Academy."

"Oh?" Shun Chuan's eyes lit up as he praised, "These two things were done extremely well! After this battle, Kurna's power would definitely increase a lot, so it was time to give him a little bit of a beating. "Son, is there any inside story behind Ku Le's sudden surrender?"

Gongsun Xu nodded and smiled, "General is right! At first, Kurna wanted Ku Le to take over the tribe's throne, and he even mentioned it to Ku Le once. Later on, Kus grew up, and Kurna became colder and colder towards Ku Le, even secretly weakening Ku Le's troops. Ku Le felt cheated, but was afraid that something bad would happen in the future, so he took advantage of this opportunity to come over. "

However, he snorted and said: "What a clever fellow! If he wanted to firmly control Kurna's tribe, this Ku Le couldn't wait. What promises did his people give him? "

"Ku Le only has one or two thousand men and horses, so I promised Academy Officer."

"Academy Officer? "Not bad." Simply nodding his head, he suddenly sighed, "Back then, when this old man followed the Marquis to war, only Academy Officer was able to struggle out of dozens of injuries!"

Gongsun Xu smiled and advised, "General, why do you care about this? Now that the world was in chaos, there were many opportunities to build a career. This lowly general feels that the General will definitely be conferred the title of Marquis in the future. "

"How could it be that easy? Back in the day, General Li Guang had great achievements, but he was still unable to be conferred the title of Marquis by the Imperial Court even in his death, so how could this old man be bestowed the title of Marquis by the Imperial Court? " As he said this, he suddenly thought of what Guan Jing had said after Gongsun Xu saved Liu Yu. Thus, he probed, "Does this subject think that Master Hou will take another step forward in the future?"

The marquis was the most noble of the Qin Dynasty. He was also divided into a marquis and a marquis. The marquis had his own fiefdom, but the marquis had his own fiefdom, which was tantamount to being a kingdom among kingdoms. Gongsun Zan's Sir Marquis Jin was a Marquis of Guan, but the feudal fiefdom was not in the Youzhou, but in his hometown of Liaoning Province (Hebei City). However, he controlled more than half of the Northern Lands, so he was in fact a powerful marquis.

From then on, only the imperial family could obtain the royal title of king. If Gongsun Zan wanted to advance to become a king, the imperial government would not be able to make him king. If he wanted to become a prince, he had to rely on himself. Solitary Classic was completely loyal to Gongsun Zan. Seeing the arrival of chaotic times, he was really looking forward to Gongsun Zan's great achievements in the future. He wanted to become a person who could bring glory to his family, including his descendants.

However, that day Gongsun Xu had publicly announced that as long as the Great Han Dynasty's Martial Court still existed, the Gongsun Clan would not rebel. Although this sentence made Liu Yu wholeheartedly serve Gongsun Zan, it made him a little unhappy. At that time, there were many people present, but the only one who could tell that Gongsun Xu's words were an excuse was most likely Guan Jing.

Yan Rou, who had been sitting in silence, also stared at Gongsun Xu.

Gongsun Xu pondered for a while before saying softly, "Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?"

Faced with such an answer that did not count as an answer, Sutra and Yan Rou were already very satisfied. As Guan Jing had said that day, in chaotic times, only by following a hero or a formidable figure as the master could one become the final winner in the chaotic battles.

"Haha!" Single Meridian suddenly laughed out loud. He cupped his hands and said, "My son Shan Meng is sixteen this year and his martial arts is pretty good. How about he be your personal bodyguard?"

"I don't dare to be called uncles' present!" Gongsun Xu quickly got up to avoid the attack. He cupped his hands in salute and said with a smile, "This nephew has also heard of the bravery of Brother Shan Meng. How could I dare to let him be my guard?"

Although Gongsun Xu said this, his heart was a little excited. His most loyal generals, such as Zhao Yun and Yan Rou, had all worked hard to get their hands on him. The veterans who followed Gongsun Zan were polite on the surface, but other than Guan Jing, no one else was close. This was the first time an old general had taken the initiative to express his goodwill.

"Why wouldn't I dare? Your son shouldn't try to fool this old man! " Bull eyes stared at Shan Meng, "That brat has a bad temper, I'll beat him up if I have to. If I have to scold if I have to scold, I'll do it anyway. Teach, you don't have to leave any face for this old man! "

Gongsun Xu said solemnly, "Since that's the case, this nephew will agree to this matter. Don't worry uncle-uncle, this nephew will definitely treat Brother Shan Meng as his own brother!"

"Haha, that's great!" Zenith laughed and applauded. He waved his hand and said: "You two go back and make the arrangements. We'll leave right after Kurna arrives."

"Here!" The two of them bowed and then left the tent.

When there was only one person left in the account, he suddenly broke into a grin and muttered, "You damned old things all think that this old man is an honest and deceitful man, yet you actually incite me to find a chance to test the duke and his son's intentions! Hehe, this old man will beat you to the punch. As long as Lin Meng'er stands firmly under the command of my people, I will come and see how your descendants contend with my family. "It's a pity, if only I had such a obedient daughter like Liu Ninger!"
