Poor Gao Huan, this night, he summoned the generals to deploy all night, and was still making a final struggle for Qi's country, hoping to use the morale of the soldiers to make a last ditch effort.
He arranged overnight for Li Jiuyang to personally lead 30,000 troops and horses to attack the Northern Army camp at dawn. As long as the Northern Army responded to the battle, he would immediately attack them.
Arrangements were made in a hurry until midnight, and when he was about to end the meeting, he heard hurried footsteps outside the door, and the guard trotted in: "Marshal, it's not good..."
He shouted: "What's all the fuss about?"
Before he finished speaking, there was a faint laugh from the opposite side. It was the eunuch who came to deliver the order, holding an edict in his hand: "Gao Huan accepts the order."
Gao Huan's heart skipped a beat and he immediately knelt down.
I could only hear the eunuch chanting: "By God, the emperor has issued an edict... Due to the protracted war in Qingzhou and the insignificant achievements, I now order General Gao Huan to personally lead an army of 10,000 to fight against the Northern Emperor..."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the generals who were kneeling on the ground felt as if they had been covered by a gush of cold water, and their whole bodies were soaked to the core.
Especially Gao Huan, who was kneeling on the ground. Even though he had been fighting for many years and had long lost sight of his life and death, he was trembling all over at this time. He allowed himself to challenge the hundreds of thousands of troops from the North with ten thousand troops and horses?
What is this other than going to die?
Moreover, you have to go there in person if you name it.
He kowtowed miserably and accepted the order, fully understanding in his heart that this was the foolish man and woman who pushed to death in order to avenge his rebuke.
He stood up, fearless and said: "I have been fighting for half my life. I am a veteran of three dynasties and have made great contributions to the country of Qi. Now, if I go to fight again, I will just die with dedication."
His subordinates all knelt down: "Marshal, think twice, this is a poisonous trick..."
"It's that vixen's poisonous plan... Marshal, you must not go there..."
Li Jiuyang saw it clearly and said thoughtfully: "Marshal, this is obviously asking you to go and die. If you are lucky enough to win, they will have other excuses; but if you fail, it will be a violation of military law. I am afraid that military law will be required."
...Furthermore, an army of ten thousand can be used to deal with other people, but to deal with the Northern Emperor's army, it is impossible to escape without even thinking about it..."
