At that moment, the clever guard fetched the map and hung it on the wall behind the handsome case for his brother Shu Han. Gao Shi asked for a charcoal pen from the guard and scratched a few rough strokes on the map, creating a large-scale scene.
A battle that is not too big or too small, but can meet all practical requirements, appears on the page.
Most of the generals under Ge Shuhan's command were fierce generals who led the charge. They were not interested in such things on paper, and they could not say anything about Ziwu Maoyou. However, as the commander of an army, Ge Shuhan himself was ruthless in strategizing.
After a lot of hard work, I realized just from the marks on the map that I had a good chance of winning. I frowned and asked with a smile: "Do you seem to be familiar with the terrain on the Tibetan side? Have you been planning for a long time?
?”
"The commander-in-chief really has a bright eye!" Gao Shi nodded lightly and flattered his brother Shu Han without leaving any trace, "My subordinate, the commander-in-chief, favored him and appointed him as the Jiedushi Shogunate Secretary, but he never repaid him. So.
, after becoming the acting governor of Yangguan City, he paid a lot of money to bribe several tribes on the south side of the Snow Mountain, and ordered them to help map the terrain of the mountains and rivers under Tubo rule. He also told them that as long as there is news about the Tubo royal court, no matter what
Everything big and small was delivered to my military tent as soon as possible. It took more than half a year, and now I finally have some results!"
"Did you bribe those Tuyuhun people?" Ge Shuhan was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise. As early as two years ago, he had planned to contact the Tuyuhun survivors in the Dafeichuan area to jointly deal with the Tubo barbarians. However, due to this
It involved a lot of right and wrong, and I was always busy with mundane affairs, so I never had time to put it into practice. Unexpectedly, when Gao Shi arrived for the first time, not only did many of his ideas coincide with his own, but he also had many ideas.
The perseverance and courage to put it into practice..
"Not only the Tuyuhun people. At the southern foot of the Snow Mountain, there are also some Qiang people, Baila people, and Yangtong people. My subordinates have had some contact with them!" Gao Shi nodded and responded with a smile, as if he had done something extremely special.
Simple things in general.
The more he spoke lightly, the more turbulent Ge Shuhan's heart became. At the junction of Tang Dynasty and Tubo, there were indeed many nomadic tribes, large and small. But these nomadic tribes were just guys who had breasts and were mothers. Usually,
He would lean towards whichever side he could get the most benefits from. He had no sense of shame or long-term plans and just reached out to both sides of the snow-capped mountains. In order to find out the situation of the Tubo people, Gao Shi actually bought so many people at the same time.
The tribe served the Tang Dynasty. How much money did it cost to do this? How could a small acting governor get such financial resources?
When his eyes fell on the opponent's robe that had been washed white, Ge Shuhan immediately had the answer in his heart. This Gaofu was so poor that he couldn't even afford a decent robe! Looking at the entire Hexi,
From his own position as a military governor to a small captain and brigade commander, they all wear fresh clothes and angry horses, and they never tire of fine food and fine food. In order to satisfy the pursuit of luxurious life, all of them eat subordinates to varying degrees.
Empty pay, the act of massively deducting from the allocated food, grass and baggage. This is a practice that has been established in the Tang army for some time. Even when the former Jiedushi Wang Zhongsi was in office, he turned a blind eye to it.
Close one eye. Who would have expected that Gaudoff, a scholar who had suffered from poverty for half his life, would finally get the opportunity to take charge of his own business. Not only did he not make a fortune, but he actually pocketed his own salary!
'It seems that I hired the right person for this secretary.' For the first time in his life, Shu Han, who was born as a martial artist, began to appreciate a scholar in a serious manner. "How much money did you spend, right? I'll come to the secretary later."
Report the total number at the warehouse, and I'll ask him to make up for you!" Nodding at the other party, he warned very sincerely. "Don't cut off the lines that have been established. If you need to give more benefits, please contact us directly.
Cang joins the army to get it. I will tell them that you are not allowed to make things difficult for you whenever you need it!"
Since Ge Shuhan had already guessed it, Gao Shi was not pretentious. He smiled, bowed and saluted, "Thank you so much, Marshal, for your thoughtfulness! To be honest, my subordinates are indeed so poor that they are drinking from the northwest wind. Fortunately, we are close to the desert here.
All year round, the northwest wind never stops!"
"Haha, hahahaha!" As soon as the words fell, a burst of wild laughter immediately sounded in the big tent. Including Huopu Quiren, Dio Sitai and other Turkic generals, all looked at Gao Shi with respect. Ge Shu
Han also laughed with everyone for a while, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, shook his head and sighed: "You are such a high-spirited man, I thought you would always be aloof! I didn't expect you to even say a hypocritical excuse.
Too lazy to say."
"Money is like a wheel. If you have it, you can travel thousands of miles in a day, but if you don't have it, you will be trapped in a city of sorrow! Gao is not really good at breathing wind and drinking dew, so why would he find wealth hot to the touch." Gao Shi shook his head and continued to joke with a smile. "
However, the commander-in-chief also needs to prepare early. The land controlled by Tubo is mountainous and bitterly cold. After our army broke into the enemy's territory, the consumption of food and grass was probably more than three times the usual amount. Once food and grass cannot be provided, even if
No matter how great the early harvest is, you will have to spit back the fat you eat in the end!"
"Well. Thank you Brother Dafu for reminding me. I will send someone to stock up on food immediately!" Brother Shuhan nodded lightly and accepted Gao Shi's suggestion without hesitation. "You should do this early after you return to Yangguan City.
Prepare for the battle next spring. I, the Commander-in-Chief, have no choice but to recruit you to the army to make plans!"
"That is the duty of my subordinates!" Gao Shi smiled and handed over his hand. He was put under house arrest by the other party for more than half a month, and now he finally escaped safely, but there was no wave on his face.
"Your code for the acting governor of Yangguan City, I will report to the court to remove it as soon as possible!" Although Gao Shi himself does not mind the grievances he has suffered recently, Ge Shuhan must compensate him, otherwise,
He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to keep him for too long. With the talent Gao Shi had shown today, he should be far more than just a low-ranking official. The imperial court of the Tang Dynasty had made the pearl fall into dust, but his brother Shu Han was not willing to sit back and watch a thousand-mile horse trapped in a fat chariot.
"The position of secretary-general of the Jiedushi Mansion is still held by you. I have many brave warriors under my command, and I really lack a person who can strategize like Brother Dafu!"
"Commander, aren't you afraid that I will act recklessly and ruin your important affairs?" Gao Shi grinned and asked unceremoniously.
"Next time, I will order someone to chop off your head before you speak!" Ge Shuhan also laughed, not hiding his anger. "Otherwise, once you are persuaded, I will inevitably retaliate.
You have to be promoted! Hurry down and go to Sicang to join the army and report the accounts! After receiving the money, remember to order a decent robe for yourself in the city. Lest outsiders see it and think that I am stingy, even your salary is not enough.
