The dead bodies scattered all over the battlefield did not cause Gao Qiqian much discomfort. Instead, they made him feel relaxed and contented, as if he was a hero who helped protect the country.
After all, he is the Secretary of the Ministry of War in the inner court. He has been in charge of the Royal Horse Supervisor and the Beijing Camp for two or three years. He has also participated in several large and small wars. Compared with those Si Li father-in-laws who have never been out of the palace and can only talk about war on paper, Gaoqi
His latent ability is still very outstanding, especially his keen observation and decisiveness in military affairs that are unmatched by ordinary people. Otherwise, he would not have gained the emperor's trust and entrusted him with important tasks just by summoning the right person twice.
To be fair, after leading the army out of Beijing in October to put down the rebellion, Gao Qiqian really wanted to do something big, but the capabilities of the Beijing camp made his pride hit again and again. In the end, he had no choice but to secondment Liao soldiers into the army.
Pass, instead of just returning to Beijing with a bunch of picks. Therefore, on the one hand, he did not want to fall out of favor due to defeat and lose everything he had today, but on the other hand, it also shows his keenness in judging the situation and the advantages and disadvantages of both the enemy and ourselves.
If you want to defeat the Kong Youde rebels, whose main force is the Dongjiang Liao soldiers, you must have the Liaodong Army, which has the same origin. This has been deeply rooted in Gao Qiqian's mind. The performance of the Jinzhou Army convinced him that his choice was not the best.
Wrong, several hundred people have such outstanding combat power, let alone five thousand people.
Looking at the brightly-clad Liaodong powerhouse, Gao Qiqian felt a confidence that he had never felt before, stronger than when he first left Beijing. He could not wait to march directly to Denglai and fight to the death with Kong Youde.

Why don't men take Wu Gou and collect the fifty states in Guanshan?
A man is born to lead a strong army and dominate the world. Our family wants the world to know that although we eunuchs are the ones who have no descendants, our desire to serve the country and kill the enemy is as good as anyone else!
I want those high officials in the court to know that there are those who are capable of literature in the inner court, and even more those who are capable of martial arts! The country of Ming Dynasty is not only defended by those with beards, we without beards can also protect the country of Ming Dynasty!
The snowflakes falling in the wind fell on his cloak, slowly condensing, and the black and white were distinct. Together with his tall figure, he was very eye-catching in the wilderness.
Infected by the victory, the cavalrymen of the Yongwei battalion who were escorting Gao Qiqiu unconsciously straightened their bodies, gathered around, and looked warily at the battlefield that had not yet been cleaned, their eyes occasionally glancing at the corpses of the thieves.
I'm afraid there is still someone alive who might suddenly burst out and hurt Eunuch Gao.
This battle was the first battle won by the officers and soldiers since the Confucius Wuqiao uprising. We had just seen it from a distance. The rebels were besieging them with artillery, cavalry and infantry. The fight was so brutal. It looked like the elite of the rebels.
The main force, if the Jinzhou Army had not fought bravely, or even if the Liao Army had thrown in, this battle might not have been won.
Not only the people in the Yongwei Camp had this idea, but also Gao Qiqian's close confidant, Bai Shangyi, the eunuch of the Royal Horse Prison, also thought so.
He was a person who had a clear distinction between public and private affairs. Although he was criticized by Shi Dayong and hated him to the core, he still affirmed the performance of the Jinzhou Army. He peeked and saw a smile on the corner of Eunuch Gao's mouth, so he couldn't help but stepped forward and said with a smile.
"No wonder my father-in-law is obsessed with these generals in Jinzhou. At first, my slaves didn't take it to heart, thinking that my father-in-law was making a fuss. No matter how strong the Jinzhou army is, it can only be compared with our Yongwei camp in Beijing. But now it seems
Come, I'm afraid it will be much stronger than the Yongwei camp.
In the battle of Shahe, everyone thought that Shi Dayong was going to be over, but he unexpectedly won the battle with fewer strikes and more strikes. However, the slaves at that time said that this guy was lucky.
He got a big bargain. If his father-in-law led the troops, he would be able to successfully capture Shahe. But today's battle was really a head-on battle. To be honest with his father-in-law, the servants were scared when they looked at it before, thinking about the Jinzhou Army.
The whole army was definitely going to be wiped out, but who would have thought that Shi Dayong would hold on again."
Bai Shangyi did not mention a word about the "killing with a borrowed knife" strategy he proposed, nor did he say anything bad about Shi Dayong and the Jinzhou Army. When he arrived, he did not forget to compliment him, "But if my father-in-law hadn't immediately rescued him, he would have
The Jinzhou Army will definitely not be able to hold on. Speaking of which, the key to winning this battle lies in my father-in-law's good command, not that Shi Dayong can fight. If he really can fight, why would we need to rescue him? This must be his first skill.
Mark it on my father-in-law’s head, haha.”
Unexpectedly, Bai Shangyi's compliment did not have the effect he wanted. Gao Qiqian did not accept it happily, but turned his face sideways and said unhappily: "In this battle, our command is good, but the soldiers used their lives badly.
This is the key point. This priority cannot be reversed. This merit must be recorded on the soldiers. How can it be recorded on our family? Don’t talk nonsense again. People will think I am superior if you spread the word.
I'm lurking to steal the military honors from the soldiers."
"Yes, yes, the father-in-law reminded me." Bai Shangyi did not doubt that he was there. He thought that the father-in-law Gao was just being humble. He was a little excited and said: "I wonder how the emperor will be happy after this good news is sent to Beijing."
"Your Majesty is naturally happy." Thinking of His Majesty's appearance after seeing the good news, Gao Qiqian couldn't help but become happy, but he said to Bai Shangyi solemnly: "Actually, we didn't expect that the man under General Jin's command was so good at fighting. We just saw it with our own eyes.
As you can see, General Jin took the lead and rushed into the rebel army. Wherever his iron hooves touched, he was as invincible as a knife cutting through tofu. The tens of thousands of traitor soldiers could actually be matched by one person. He is really a rare and powerful general! Oh, yes,
, and the ancestors of the Liaodong family also performed very heroically, especially the young general Wu Sangui. He really has the heroic spirit of his father. He is worthy of being the son of a general. He is awesome. When our family comes to the table, we must give them a good smile and call them.
The emperor is also happy."
"this"
Gao Qiqian said well, but Bai Shangyi was confused. Shi Dayong was clearly leading the Jinzhou Army to fight against the rebels. How come Eunuch Gao told him that Jin Guoqi and his family were fighting bravely against the rebels?
"What is this? What we saw with our own eyes, can it be false?" Gao Qiqian snorted pretending to be unhappy, then turned his head and ignored Bai Shangyi.
After the latter was stunned for dozens of seconds, he suddenly came to his senses and said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I am stupid, this battle was won by the bravery of General Lai Jin and the Liaodong ancestors. It was definitely not the battle before the war."
He was attacked by the Jinzhou Army who did not advance! Humph, my father-in-law must take a good look at Shi Dayong's book. He followed the king's law and ignored the national discipline. Since he went south, he did not want to be loyal to the king. Instead, he launched troops to plunder and return fire to friendly forces.
Those who kill good people and take credit for their merits, realize their wolfish ambitions, and are treasonous and immoral. The court must severely punish such thieves! Killing his head is not an exaggeration!"
He said so much, but didn't listen to a word. At this time, his eyes fell on a group of knights galloping towards him from the east.[
