Chapter 81 Mobilization
Gao Huan didn't give Gao Cheng any instructions to join forces with Hou Jing, but Little Gao Wang still planned to go hand in hand with Hou Jing.

As the commander of the Conquest of the Three Thorns, this battle is related to his reputation in the army, so Gao Cheng must be cautious.

1 people were left in Luoyang, and all were handed over to Hu Luguang to defend Kansai while training troops.

The remaining Gyeonggi army, Gao Aocao, Duan Shao, Yaoxiong, and Murong Shaozong, a total of [-] troops, were organized into the expedition sequence.

Among them, there are indeed nine thousand atmosphere groups from various states and counties in Henan, but how much combat effectiveness can the civilian husbands Hu Sichun and others have hastily recruited in Sanjing.

What's more, there are tens of thousands of soldiers under Hou Jing's command, and this wave of flying dragons can lose if they face.
It must be Hou Jing's fault!He had to cut off his sacrificial flag.

On the night of the eighth day of February, Gao Cheng was restless.

Tomorrow is the day of the expedition, and he is getting more and more nervous.

Although he accompanied Gao Huan to the battlefield in Leping and Hanling successively, this was the first time he led the army as a coach.

Even being pillowed on Er Zhu Ying'e's lap couldn't calm Gao Cheng's breathing.

"Let the concubine go south with her husband."

The skin on Erzhu Ying'e's legs felt the heavy breathing of the little man, she understood the importance of the Battle of Three Thorns to Gao Cheng.

While Gao Cheng was moved, he still refused:

"Someone in the house has to be in charge."

These words warmed Er Zhu Ying'e's heart.

The two cuddled together for a long time, but Gao Cheng was still uneasy, so he went out and ordered someone to call Gao Jishi over.

Under the guard of Gao Ji style, he went to patrol the camp again.

There was no scene of blocking by the gatekeepers as he had imagined, which made Gao Cheng unhappy, but who told him to go in and out of the camp frequently, he already had a familiar face.

If his subordinates had the military discipline of Zhou Yafu's Xiliu camp, Gao Cheng would dare to wrestle with He Liuhun.

Fortunately, the defense of the camp at night has not been relaxed. Every few steps, you can meet a team of patrolling guards, and there are many sentries before entering the camp.

Even if this is the case in Luoyang, there is no need to worry about being attacked at night and stealing the camp when going south.

Soon, Gao Aocao and other generals came to meet each other after receiving the report from the soldiers.

After a few words of encouragement, Gao Cheng stopped disturbing everyone's rest and led Gao Jishi back to the city with peace of mind.

On the ninth day of February, before dawn, Er Zhu Ying'e, Xiao Er Zhu, and Yuan Mingyue saw each other off outside the mansion. All that needed to be said had been said last night.

After saying goodbye, Gao Cheng saw Yuan Zhonghua who was hiding in the alley and watching from afar without walking far.

Gao Jishi confirmed that Yuan Zhonghua was the only one in the alleyway, so Gao Cheng walked up and asked:
"Why are you hiding here?"

"I want to send you off."

Yuan Zhonghua looked down at his toes.

Gao Cheng felt something, stroked her black hair and said:
"You've worked so hard this time."

Yuan Zhonghua had a sore nose and couldn't help crying.

Since that day when Yuan Zhonghua asked to see him, hoping to intercede for his father, but was rejected by Gao Cheng, the two of them never met again.

When Gao Cheng was busy with military administration, he was able to wander among the three concubines when he returned to the mansion, leaving Yuan Zhonghua behind.

But Yuan Zhonghua, a little girl, had a hard time.

Gao Cheng hugged Yuan Zhonghua in his arms, pressed his chin against her forehead, and said in a low voice:

"King Qinghe's rebellion, if I don't kill him, and everyone follows suit, I can't even save myself.

"Don't blame me. No one can save him. Only after he dies can the Qinghe palace be kept alive."

Yuan Zhonghua hid in Gao Cheng's arms and sobbed:

"I'm only afraid that you don't want me."

She wiped her tears and continued:

"I tried to persuade Grandpa, but I couldn't persuade you. Before I went to find you that day, I knew the result in my heart. In fact, I never thought of embarrassing you."

Gao Cheng hugged her tightly:
"I know, I haven't seen you during this time, just because I don't know how to face it, you are my first wife, how could I not want you."

The two hugged for a while, Gao Cheng said softly:
"If Qinghe Palace can't stay any longer, you can move back home."

The word family made Yuan Zhonghua feel a surge of sweetness in his heart.

"My mother and my brothers and sisters are all sensible people. Grandpa wanted to kill you, but you let our family go. They didn't hold a grudge against you, let alone blame me."

Without any further delay, Gao Cheng let go of Yuan Zhonghua, wiped away tears for her, and said:
"The gate of Bohai Prince's Mansion is always open for you. You have to take good care of yourself in Luoyang, and don't sneak out by yourself in the future. Go back quickly."

After all, Gao Cheng ordered the two guards to send Yuan Zhonghua back, and while she was looking back frequently, Gao Cheng led the guards to the camp outside the city.

Walking outside the camp, Gao Cheng confirmed to Yang Min again:
"Zunyan, have you prepared all the food and grass needed for the southern conscription?"

Yang Min smiled and comforted:
"Governor, this is the third time you have asked. Not only food and fodder, but in the name of Shangshu Province, I have recruited civilian husbands from the states and counties along the way. The governors and county guards in various places have even prepared the food and fodder needed by the civilian husbands."

Only then did Gao Cheng feel relieved, the three armies did not move, and the food and grass went first, so he was indeed worried about gains and losses.

It's the first time I go out to fight, I don't want to end up in a situation where I don't have enough food and grass, and I have to eat civilian husbands.

In addition to carrying and filling ditches, civilian husbands also have another use as spare food.

Of course, these things only happen under extreme circumstances. Looking ahead, there is Cheng Yu making human jerky, and looking back, there is Qin Zongquan's cannibal army.

Gao Cheng believed that under his governance, the Kanto region would not reach such appalling levels.

After entering the camp, Gao Aocao, Duan Shao, Yaoxiong, and Murong Shaozong had already lined up under the high platform, waiting for Gao Cheng to give the command.

Hu Luguang, who was ordered to stay in Luoyang for military training, also rushed over.

Today is a special day, he doesn't want to miss it.

Under the watchful eyes of [-] people, Gao Cheng stepped onto the high platform.

He had seen Gao Huan's speech many times before dispatching troops, and when it was his turn, he still couldn't help but secretly swallowed his saliva.

"Me! Governor of Gyeonggi! Gao Cheng! Gao Zihui!"

After biting the bullet and shouting loudly, Gao Cheng felt relieved all over.

He went on shouting:
"Maybe some of you despise me for being young, but I need to let you know! Gao Zihui participated in military and political planning at the age of ten, and governed the country for his father at the age of 11. It has been very effective. Now at the age of 13, I want to take you south to fight for wealth.

"You just fight to the front. I, Gao Zihui, swear to you as the son of the King of Bohai. Those who are disabled or killed in battle will receive a lot of compensation. All of them will be handed over to your family members. If anyone dares to be greedy, the whole army will kill them together Of.

"If you have heirs, your children will be raised by my Gao family and taught to become talents.

"Lonely and widowed people, I will choose heirs for you from your clan to continue the bloodline.

"Those who fight bravely, I will not ignore your achievements.

"Those who are afraid of the enemy, I will not forgive you and other crimes.

"For meritorious deeds, one must be rewarded, and for demerits, one must be punished. Today, I, Gao Zihui, promise fairness to all of you.

"By violating this oath, the clan will be destroyed, and the descendants will be cut off!"

Immediately, the whole army responded, and under the leadership of the generals Gao Cheng had already arranged, they all shouted:

"Wealthy children and grandchildren, this battle begins!"

 I must apologize to everyone, there have been too many things in the past two days, in fact, I only coded these 2000 words, and the rest are for eating and saving manuscripts, but it will be normal tomorrow, and I will not delay the update time.

  I will post 6000 words tomorrow, as compensation for everyone.

  In addition, I promised everyone that there will be [-] updates after the release, and I will definitely do it.
