Battlefield of All Sides

Chapter 40 The task given by Gao Changgong (ask for collection and recommendation ticket)

Li Mu walked towards the tent in the distance at this time, and he was also very surprised what Gao Changgong was looking for him at this time.

Li Mu couldn't help but think back to the scene of the battle just now. Although he was attacked by the enemy's heavy cavalry and caused heavy casualties to the heavy cavalry, he didn't take any drastic actions. Could it be that Gao Changgong came to him not because of this, but because of something? something else?
Li Mu couldn't figure it out, so he quickly stepped outside the camp of the Chinese army.

At the moment, there was a fierce quarrel in the tent, Li Mu asked the guard at the door for instructions, and before the guard went in to report, he saw a rough man coming out with big strides.

The other party was wearing gorgeous armor, obviously also a general, and at the moment he was still cursing, he stopped two steps out of the tent, turned around, pointed at the tent and shouted loudly.

"Master Duan, even though you have a close relationship with His Majesty, I am just not angry about what happened today. Why did the heavy cavalry I brought with me lose so much! Those are the soldiers I trained so hard!"

"General Hulu, it happened so suddenly. I never thought that the opponent would have so many heavy cavalry, and Bei Zhou was a tough guy."

An older voice said so from inside, but the rough general outside snorted coldly and flung his sleeves away.

At this time, Li Mu also roughly heard something, that is, the general in front of him lost a lot of his own heavy cavalry, so he feels very unhappy now, but the losses on the battlefield are always uncontrollable, so the situation is very troublesome. A little stiff.

Even if Li Mu knew this, he could only lower his head and grin. In general, the Qi army suffered a disadvantage in today's battle, so it is right to complain.

Perhaps there may have been conspiracy involved on other levels, but this is also a level that Li Mu cannot touch.

And when General Hulu left, the voice inside also stopped immediately. At this time, the guard also went in to report, and let Li Mu go in after a while.

Li Mu bowed his head and walked into the big tent. The person sitting on the main seat was a middle-aged man with gorgeous clothes and a long beard who looked very generous. However, Gao Changgong, Li Mu's immediate chief, was sitting on the other side. On one side, at the moment, he was bowing his head on the table and seemed to be deducing something.

"Heavy cavalry commander Gao Bai, I have met Grand Master Duan, General Gao."

Li Mu also understood the order of superiority and inferiority. Although he didn't know who the middle-aged man in front of him was, he immediately saluted and said, then turned his head and said to Gao Changgong on the other side.

Grand Master Duan just glanced at Li Mu and didn't treat Li Mu as an important person at all. He didn't respond and drank his tea silently.

On the other hand, Gao Changgong on the other side heard Li Mu's words and raised his head. The grimace mask was still on his face. Li Mu even wondered if he was wearing this mask while eating and sleeping.

But the other party's eyes looked over, and then a voice came from under the mask: "Gao Bai, how many enemies have you killed today?"

"Back to the general. The scene was intense. I didn't count it down. I just remember rushing all the way through and wading through a bloody path."

Li Mu was a little surprised by Gao Changgong's question, but he did not remember the number, so he said so immediately.

Listening to what Li Mu said, Gao Changgong nodded, but the expression on Li Mu's face was cautious. He didn't know why Gao Changgong called him over.

"Your Highness, could this be the son of the wet nurse you mentioned?"

At this time, Duan Shao who was next to him asked, as if he was also interested in Li Mu at this time, Li Mu immediately turned around and bowed to the other party, and Gao Changgong also said at this time.

"Yes, this is the son of the wet nurse. The wet nurse died of illness, and her husband also died on the battlefield. There was only one son left, so he was given the surname Gao and grew up with me."

Duan Shao also nodded at this time, but suddenly frowned, and asked with some confusion: "Your Highness called him here today just to ask him this?"

Duan Shao spoke out the doubts in Li Mu's mind, but Gao Changgong shook his head at this time, and handed over a document.

Li Mu didn't know what it was, so he took it and opened it to look at it, but he immediately closed it.

"General, let me do this?"

The document Gao Changgong gave to Li Mu was an arrangement for the subsequent raid. From the document written in lowercase letters, Li Mu roughly understood that there would be a cavalry team from Luoyang to break through the encirclement in the next attack. , Escort a few important people out of it, and when the time comes, the task of Li Mu and others is to let Li Mu and another twenty cavalrymen go to one place to meet them, and to cover those people at that time.

This order is almost inexplicable, because there are only twenty heavy cavalry in this mission, and the escort is a troop that escaped from the heavily surrounded Luoyang city.

Not to mention whether they can escape or not, there are only twenty heavy cavalry. Once the enemy troops come to pursue them, how can this manpower be able to withstand the pursuit? go in.

"General, such a task is obviously very important, why not let Qiu Baichang take us to complete it together?"

The order was very strange, but Li Mu couldn't find the reason why it was wrong, so he immediately asked about the reason, but what he saw was Gao Changgong's cold eyes.

"Gao Bai, what do you mean, you can't complete this task?"

"This……"

Li Mu looked over at the moment, his eyes were a little erratic, and his expression was a little stagnant, but Gao Changgong continued to talk to Li Mu.

"The reason why this matter is entrusted to you is because it is very important. Although you are disadvantaged in doing things, after all, you and I grew up together. I trust you in this matter."

Gao Changgong said in a deep voice, but stared at Li Mu with scorching eyes, and then added again: "Remember, this time the horses will wear less heavy armor. Once you see something bad, you can just leave, understand?"

When Gao Changgong said this, Li Mu was even more confused, but when he was told by the other party's firm tone, Li Mu nodded stiffly at the moment.

Glancing to the other side, Duan Shao was stroking his beard and watching Gao Changgong's movements expressionlessly, and then Li Mu also saluted and left with the document.

While waiting for Li Mu to leave from here, Gao Changgong kept staring at the line of defense where Li Mu left. He didn't look back until the curtain fell again.

Turning his head, Gao Changgong's eyes met Duan Shao's.

"Your Highness, do you really choose to let your Fa Xiao do such a thing?"

As soon as Duan Shao's words came out, it already showed that this matter was unusual, and even had a very dangerous meaning.

But Gao Changgong's expression did not change at all. He just sighed silently and said slowly: "Such a thing is indeed dangerous, but it is not difficult. Although his fighting skills are not good, I believe that his escape movements must be certain." No procrastination.”

Duan Shao heard Gao Changgong say this, but couldn't help shaking his head: "I didn't expect His Highness to have such a view of his subordinates."

"He, I never regarded him as a subordinate. His father died in a battle with the Turks, and I brought him to the army. He is not worthy of being a heavy cavalryman, nor is he worthy of being his father's son, nor is he worthy of being my subordinate!"

Gao Changgong said decisively, his tone was very cold, and his eyes were unusually firm.

Duan Shao also nodded clearly, and he also knew that the young general in front of him was also a general who cared for his subordinates, and this person with an unusual status should be someone he cared about.

What he did seemed to be harming him, but it was actually making him grow.

I just don’t know if that young man can understand the meaning and survive in this battlefield.

A sigh came out.

But Li Mu who went out with the paperwork was full of doubts, but he didn't know that he would have more cruel things waiting for him.
