The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 56 Unexpectedly, the war resumes

Since there were only less than 5000 suspected soldiers in the Huangchao camp, they were finally in a dilemma with no reinforcements inside under the high-intensity attack of the second army of Cheng Zhang outside.

The stronghold has finally fallen!

In this battle, the materials needed by Huang Chao's army were also divided equally under the total of Cheng Yuanzhi and Zhang Yan.

Although Cheng Yuanzhi also wanted to take the opportunity to wipe out Zhang Yan and monopolize Taihang Mountain.

But helplessly, Zhang Yan's 2 horses had just joined the battlefield not long ago, and they belonged to a new force with high morale and physical strength.

On the other hand, after Cheng Yuanzhi sent soldiers to escort the prisoners and divided troops to attack the Huangchao camp, there were only 5000 people left.

And he was a tired teacher who had been fighting for nearly a day.

Therefore, in the end, under the concession of the two armies, after the supplies were equally divided, they each led their troops to withdraw.

But after this battle, Huang Chao, the largest separatist force, was basically destroyed, and Cheng Yuanzhi's troops became the largest separatist force in Taihang Mountain.

…………

A few days later, the news of the Taihang Mountain victory was secretly sent to Gao Qi.

After seeing it, Gao Qi couldn't help but exclaimed: "Okay, good! It seems that the decision to let Cheng Yuanzhi hide the Taihang Mountain was a correct choice."

In this victory report, Cheng Yuanzhi emphatically stated that he followed Cheng Gongying's plan to join the army, and finally he was able to make a big move and wipe out Huang Chao in one fell swoop.

It turned out that in this war, Cheng Yuanzhi listened to Cheng Gongying's strategy and first used a weak army to dress up as yellow scarf warriors to lure Huang Chao's massive attack.

Immediately, after Huang Chao led the army to chase after him, Zaixing used the Yellow Turban warriors to severely defeat Huang Chao's troops, and finally used the fire set by Huang Chao to add fire to the fire and extinguish it in one fell swoop.

The final strategy is to divide the troops between Cheng Gongying and Cheng Yuanzhi, and wait for Huang Chao to return to the camp to bring out the soldiers and horses to escape, and then make a large-scale attack to completely defeat Huang Chao.

It can be said that this plan for Cheng Gongying can be said to have seen Huang Chao's psychology very thoroughly.

Gao Qi couldn't help being extremely happy after watching the battle.

Because although this team is now called the Yellow Turban, it is actually Gao Qi's own army.

The more victories he fought, the faster he developed, so why would Gao Qi not do it?

…………

"Report, General! A person from outside the mansion claimed to be an aide under the command of Xihe County Guard, and asked to see something important, I don't know?"

Just when Gao Qi was excited, suddenly a personal guard walked in quickly, clasping his hands to report.

"Oh, Li Shimin's emissary?" Hearing this, Gao Qi couldn't help being surprised for a while, for some reason Li Shimin would send someone to look for him at this time.

But Gao Qi still out of a kind of trust, ordered his personal guards to bring the envoy into the mansion.

"Sun Wuji, chief of staff under the command of a certain Xihe prefect, sees General Hussars."

Just to say, a young scribe in a green shirt, wearing a lun scarf on his head, and a goose feather fan in his hand walked into the mansion and saluted Gao Qi who was sitting on the master's seat.

"Changsun Wuji, Changsun Wuji?" In an instant, Gao Qi couldn't help being touched.

Quickly took out the summoning stone and asked with his mind: Little elf, quickly help me detect this person in front of me.

Okay, host, please wait a moment!

Di, the person in front of you is Sun Wuji, one of the 24 heroes of Lingyan Pavilion in the Tang Dynasty, with 78 commander, 61 force, 95 intelligence, 98 politics, and 94 charisma.

"Si, it's really the eldest grandson Wuji, Wugou's older brother."

After hearing Summoning Stone's report, Gao Qi couldn't help but fell into extreme shock.

Because when he said goodbye to Changsun Wugou, he promised to help find her elder brother Changsun Wuji.

But now that Changsun Wuji was standing in front of him, Gao Qi didn't know what to say.

Seeing the dazed look of Gao Qi on the main seat, Changsun Wuji couldn't help being puzzled, and said, "General Hussars, General Hussars?"

After several consecutive reminders, Gao Qi suddenly realized that he couldn't help explaining with a smile, and at the same time called his eldest grandson Wuji to sit down.

After sitting down, Gao Qi couldn't help getting to the point, and said, "I don't know why Brother Shimin ordered the eldest grandson to come here?"

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "General Hussars, I found out that Temujin, the new Western Turkic Khan, has frequently mobilized troops and horses in recent days. .”

"Could it be that Temujin is going to invade again?" Hearing this, Gao Qi couldn't help feeling a little surprised, and couldn't help asking.

"Yes, that's why my lord specially asked Lai and General Hussar how to defend against the attack of the barbarians."

Immediately, Changsun Wuji raised his hand in an equally neither humble nor overbearing manner to explain.

After getting this information, Gao Qi didn't dare to be negligent, and ordered his eldest grandson Wuji to go down to rest first, and think about countermeasures himself.

"Brother Changsun, stop!" Just as Changsun Wuji bid farewell, Gao Qi stopped him.

"I don't know what else the Hussar General is doing?" Hearing this, Changsun Wuji stopped, turned around and asked.

Immediately, Gao Qi asked: "Is there a younger sister whose whereabouts are unknown?"

"This...General, how do you know?"

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji couldn't help being stunned, not knowing why Gao Qi knew about his sister, but after a while, he still echoed.

"Then your sister's name is Changsun Wugou?" Gao Qi continued to ask knowingly.

Hearing this sentence, Changsun Wuji's defensive line completely collapsed, he quickly walked to Gao Qi's side, asked Gao Qi if he knew the whereabouts of his sister, and asked to tell her where she is now.

Hearing this, Gao Qi couldn't help but weigh it in his heart for a long time, as if he had just made a decision, he said slowly: "Wugou was snatched by bandits back then, thankfully Ben will appear in time to prevent Wugou from being humiliated."

"Because Wugou told me that her family only has one elder brother, I let her live at home with her mother."

"Since the eldest grandson is Wugou's elder brother, let's meet each other as soon as possible!"

Immediately, Gao Qi pondered for a long time, and finally decided to tell Changsun Wuji the truth.

Hearing Gao Qi's words, Changsun Wuji already had tears in his eyes, bowed his hands and said: "On behalf of Wugou, thank General Wuji for saving his life!"

Soon, Changsun Wuji bid farewell to Gao Qi and left.

In the mansion, Gao Qi was left alone again, lost in thought.

This time, Gao Qi told Changsun Wuji the truth without reservation.

Although Gao Qi knew that it was possible that his grandson Wugou would leave him just like that, and would fall into Li Shimin's embrace as in history.

But Gao Qi is still willing to do this, Gao Qi knows very well that if the eldest grandson Wugou really loves herself, she will definitely not choose other people.

Conversely, even if Gao Qi forcibly keeps the eldest grandson Wugou, but that is only the one who gets her, not her heart.

Therefore, Gao Qi wants to take a gamble to see whether love or brother-sister relationship is more important in Changsun Wugou's heart.

…………

Thinking through this, Gao Qi couldn't help but put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind for a while, and ordered to the guards outside.

"Hurry up and inform everyone about this matter!"

Soon, everyone heard that Gao Qi had summoned them, and they didn't dare to neglect, they put down their work and went to the county mansion.
