Fang Jun shouted, stared at Gao Kan with stern eyes, and said slowly: "As a soldier, it is your bounden duty to obey orders. You shouldn't ask this! But I have been with you for a long time, and you have always been a good person.
It’s not a big deal, so I’ll make an exception today to explain it, but please remember it, this is just this time, I won’t make an exception next time!”
Gao Kan was sweating profusely, knelt down on one knee, and begged for mercy: "Commander, there is no need to explain, the general is just confused for a moment, and he will never dare to do it again!"
"snort!"
Fang Jun snorted, his expression softened, and he waved his hands and said, "Get up and talk."
"Here!"
Gao Kan then stood up and stood on one side with his hands tied.
Fang Jun looked out the window. It was a dark night without wind or rain, and there was no one around. Then he whispered: "There are some things that are difficult to know and even harder to understand at your level, so from this question, I can
Accept. There is nothing to explain this matter. All I can say is 'it is imperative', do you understand?"
Gao Kan nodded: "The general will finally understand!"
He is not a fool, so how could he not understand what Fang Jun meant when he said this? Since it is "imperative", there must be a reason for "having to do it", and this reason is not that Fang Jun refuses to tell him.
It's that he has not yet reached the level, or qualification, to know the reason.
Fang Jun waved his hand and said: "Questions like yours will never appear in the army. Orders and prohibitions are the same as the iron discipline of the Youtun Guards. If there is any disobedience, military law will be enforced!"
"Here!"
Gao Kan can now be regarded as a fierce general with great military exploits, but in front of Fang Jun, he will always be the same soldier as before, frightened by the huge momentum and coercion.
Fang Jun continued: "Collect all the news about the rebels. I want to know every move of the rebels anytime and anywhere, even if it is the dispatch of a brigade of soldiers, the movement of a cart of grain, the distribution of a battalion of ordnance... I have to do it without any fuss.
No matter how big or small, whenever we send out troops, we can know ourselves and the enemy, and we will miss nothing."
Gao Kan was shocked in his heart and said loudly: "Here!"
He knew that the commander-in-chief was determined to completely defeat the rebels and did not care at all about the peace talks that the East Palace civil servants were currently having with Guan Long.
As for the reason... not only did he not dare to ask, he didn't even dare to think about it.
The Youtun Guards are disciplined like mountains. Even if he violates military discipline, he will still be severely punished. It is even possible that the deputy general's official position will be wiped out...
As for defeating the rebels, he is quite confident. The Guanlong army seems to have a large number of people, but most of them use their weapons to make up for their numbers. The real elites except the private army of the Changsun family, the private army of the Yuwen family in Woye town, and not many other clans. The mutiny has been fierce in the past six months.
Incessantly, the elite rebels were beaten to pieces, with not much left.
Now, more than 100,000 stones of food in Jinguangmen have been burned down in a fire. The rebels have run out of food. How many days can they survive relying only on the food left in the army?
When the food was exhausted and the morale of the army was weakened, it was defeated in one attack.
As long as Li Ji, who was stationed in Tongguan, would not intervene, it could be said that the rebels were defeated with certainty. Even if Li Ji boldly sent troops to Beijing, the right garrison, the elite Anxi army, and more than 10,000 Tubo horsemen would not be without the power to fight.
Gao Kan and the entire army had already become extremely confident about the combat power of Youtun Guards. Even if they faced ten times the enemy, they dared to fight against them without fear, and they dared to say that they would win the battle.
This is not blind arrogance, but a groundless confidence cultivated by victory after victory since the reorganization of Youtunwei.
An army that is as invincible as steel must first have a belief that is as fearless and indestructible as steel. This is called the soul of the army...
…
When Xu was about to arrive, Fang Jun walked out of the Chinese military tent and returned to the military camp where he was surrounded by layers of guards.
The tent was brightly lit, and when Fang Jun entered, he saw Princess Gaoyang and Wu Meiniang both taking off their shoes, leaning on the soft couch in the back and half-lying talking. They were beautiful and charming, slender and plump, two completely different styles.
It outlines a beautiful picture, with two pairs of snow-white and delicate feet looming under the skirt, which is particularly attractive.
Fang Jun took the cup from the maid, wiped his hands and face, and said with a smile: "What, are you going to sleep with me tonight?"
Wu Meiniang smiled and said nothing, while Princess Gaoyang snorted, ignored Fang Jun, and whispered something into Wu Meiniang's ear, but Fang Jun could hear words such as "baling", "imagination" and "dirty".
, which made Fang Jun angry and embarrassed, and warned: "Your Highness, please do not taint someone's innocence!"
How can Princess Gao Yang be afraid of him? She rolled her eyes coquettishly and said, "If you don't want others to tell you, you have to do it yourself. Your second wife can do it, but I, Gao Yang, can't say it? That doesn't make sense!"
Wu Meiniang's eyes sparkled, she looked Fang Jun up and down, and when she saw Fang Jun's back, she pursed her lips and smiled and said: "In the past, I looked at Lang Jun's honest and honest appearance, and thought he was a gentleman, but now I know that he is not like those people in the market."
There is no difference between evildoers. They covet other people's women but don't dare to touch them. When they get angry, they can only go home and harm their own women. Tsk tsk, the famous Fang Erlang is nothing more than that."
"Mom!"
Fang Jun became angry and shouted: "After bathing and changing clothes, my husband must show his strength today, otherwise you will take advantage of him sooner or later!"
Princess Gaoyang's face turned red with embarrassment and she spat: "Who are you messing around with?"
Wu Meiniang covered her lips and smiled, her eyes moving: "Who are you trying to scare? It's not like you've never ridden before..."
"Oh!" Princess Gao Yang pushed her back and said angrily, "Are you going crazy? You can even say such things."
Wu Meiniang did not give in, and raised her eyebrows: "Not only have I ridden one before, but has His Highness not ridden one before? I can't tell you what I did. What's the point?"
Princess Gao Yang was also a tough one. With a twist of her slender waist, she turned over and pressed Wu Meiniang under her. She stretched out a slender hand from the slightly open skirt and said through gritted teeth: "You prodigal, I'm here too today."
I’ll ride you once so that you dare to speak nonsense again!”
The two women were fighting and fighting on the soft couch, neither of them giving way to the other. They were panting for a while, their hairpins were messy, their white skin was shining brightly under the lamp, and the beautiful scenery of the mountains was looming, which made Fang Jun's mouth dry.
Dry tongue...
The two people who were going crazy suddenly saw darkness in front of them. They were so frightened that their movements stopped. Princess Gao Yang screamed: "Fang Jun, hold the lamp!"
Before he finished speaking, a figure had already jumped onto the soft couch, picked up Princess Gao Yang and held her down underneath her.
"oops!"
Princess Gaoyang screamed, smelling the familiar smell, her whole body softened.
Wu Meiniang, who was pinned down by the two men, snorted miserably, her voice like a gossamer: "I need to take a shower first..."
Is Shui still interested in bathing at this time?
Just do it and it’s done!
…
You still need to take a bath, but you were too excited to take a bath beforehand, but afterwards you were quietly and comfortably squeezed into a tub soaking in hot water, enjoying the tranquility and warmth after the storm.
"Hey, do you think I would like to go to the city in person and pay homage to Princess Baling's house?"
Princess Gaoyang recovered, leaned on Lang Jun's shoulder, and asked softly.
She was not very close to the sisters before, and acted a little eccentric and unsociable. However, after marrying Fang Jun, she became more generous and cheerful, and gradually interacted with her sisters more and more, except for a few who had direct interests, such as Princess Dongyang.
Although there is conflict, the other sisters get along well with each other.
Now that Chai Lingwu died violently and Princess Baling became a widow, although it was not Fang Jun's fault, there was some connection after all, which made Princess Gaoyang feel even more pity. Coinciding with the victory of Youtunwei, the peace talks were further advanced, and the situation inside and outside Chang'an City was slightly different.
Relaxed, she thought about whether she could go to the city to express her condolences and show her sisterhood.
Fang Jun leaned against the wall of the tub comfortably and said casually: "Why not? No matter how stupid Guan Long is, he will not think that kidnapping a woman can affect the current situation. If you want to go, it's okay to go by yourself."
Princess Gaoyang nodded.
Wu Meiniang sat up straight, lifted up her wet hair and squeezed the water with her hands. Her voice was delicate and watery: "Don't you plan to raid the rebels in the near future?"
She usually has slightly better combat power than Princess Gaoyang, but today she encountered a "mixed double attack" and couldn't resist it, so she finally regained her composure.
Fang Jun greatly admired Wu Meiniang's political talent, so he regarded Wu Meiniang's suggestions as a guideline. After hearing this, he immediately asked: "Meiniang thinks we should strike while the iron is hot?"
Wu Meiniang pushed her hair behind her back, her black hair and snowy skin were particularly charming, she shook her head and said: "Of course not, the rebels outside Jinguang Gate lost more than 100,000 stones of grain and grain, and suffered heavy losses. At this moment, the entire army must be tense and heavily guarded. If they go to make a surprise attack,
The casualties are bound to be heavy, and the gains outweigh the losses. Now that the rebels have run out of food, how many days can such a high-pressure defense be able to sustain? The longer they delay, the more disorganized they will be and the more loopholes they will have. I am afraid of my husband.
I am under pressure and want to end the mutiny as soon as possible, so I am reminding you."
Although she didn't know why Fang Jun was extremely resistant to the peace talks and wanted to completely defeat Guan Long, she had some guesses. If the guesses were true, then it was obvious that Fang Jun would encounter pressure that he could not refuse and would have to take the risk to raid the rebels.
Fang Jun was silent for a moment and sighed: "Meiniang is really Zhuge among women. It can take as little as three days or as long as five days. We must gather a large army and fight to the death against Guan Long."
