Governor please stay

Numerous examples in history can prove that when a person cannot understand his thoughts, he cannot do anything well.Gao Huan's condition is not good, and everyone under his command can see it, but he can't tell those things.

It's about the son, to gossip too much is to think that one's life is too long!

It's okay to say that Dou Tai is off, after all, he is an "outsider".But Gao Cheng was blind in one eye, and Gao Huan was unable to avenge his son, which made him faintly prestige.

There were many people who opposed it, but they did not dispel Gao Huan's idea of ​​revenge.He secretly wrote to Duan Rong and his son who guarded Jinzhou, hoping that Duan Rong and his son could come to Yecheng to discuss with him about sending troops to Liang.

As for the defense of Jinzhou, Gao Huan handed it over to Gao Yue, and asked Gao Yue and She Digan to station in Jinzhou.Again, as a leader, if you really want to accomplish something, there are still many means.

If you transfer away those who oppose you, aren't the ones who are left just those who support you?Gao Huan sees this very clearly.

However, many days passed after the letter was sent to Huguan City, but Gao Huan did not wait for a reply at all, as if nothing had disappeared.

On this day, just as he was planning to send someone to Huguan City to inquire about the advice of Duan and his son, Duan Shao rushed from Huguan City to Yecheng single-handedly, and brought Duan Rong's personal letter.

In Bafu's study, Duan Shao carefully sat opposite the table, watching Gao Huan read the letter he brought, thinking about how to speak.

Duan Rong had a prediction before coming here, and the prospects are not optimistic.

"I understand what your father means."

Gao Huan sighed, put down the letter paper, and looked at Duan Shao with complicated eyes.

"If King Gao has any orders, you can tell the general directly, and the general will definitely go through fire and water."

Duan Shao cupped his hands and said.

Gao Huan nodded slightly, noncommittal, still thinking about how to deal with it.

Duan Rong said in the letter that it is the great plan of the country to destroy Er Zhurong in one go, and one should not raise troops due to anger and go south for revenge.Even if this battle is won, it is of little significance. Instead, the elite soldiers will be restrained to the front line of Jianghuai, which is not worth the loss.

Er Zhurong has always been a serious confidant, as long as he relaxes a little, he may make a comeback.

Therefore, Duan Rong resolutely opposed Gao Huan's use of troops against Liang Guo, especially to retaliate under the banner of avenging Gao Cheng and Dou Tai, and the gain outweighed the loss.

However, Duan Rong changed the subject in the letter, saying that if Gao Huan wanted to take revenge, it seemed like a good idea for a small group of elite soldiers to sneak in secretly and leave with one blow.He sent Duan Shao to Yecheng and let Gao Huan dispatch him at will.

After reading the letter, Gao Huan couldn't help admiring Duan Rong's sophistication. He said bad things, but he did good things, and he couldn't find fault anyway.If the army defeats the south in the future, it will not be Duan Rong's problem.

Even Duan Rong strongly opposed Gao Huan leading troops south, which made him hesitate for a while.If one person objects, it may be that person has bad vision, but now so many people object, it is enough to explain a lot of problems.

"Xiaoxian, what do you think of this matter?"

Gao Huan asked in a deep voice.

Duan Shao didn't speak, it seemed that it was difficult to make a choice, and he looked conflicted.

"Recently there have been many rumors in Ye City, saying that Liu Yishou, the high-ranking man, is a poisonous bird, and he must be eliminated quickly." Gao Huan sighed. He didn't know how these rumors came from, but it sounded good. People are very upset.

It seemed to be urging him to send troops south as soon as possible.

"King Gao, in the opinion of the last general, if you send troops to the south this time, you will probably be defeated in all likelihood."

After holding back for a long time, Duan Shao choked out such a sentence, which made Gao Huan stunned.He never expected that Duan Shao, who is usually "obedient and obedient", would not give him face so much!

"Before you set off to Yecheng, what did your father explain?"

Gao Huan asked with a worried expression.In fact, Duan Shao's words were not too much at all, but they were far below Gao Huan's expectations.

So make him very upset!

"Father confessed that everything should be obeyed by King Gao, and that one should not obey one's will."

Duan Shao replied truthfully.

Then you still say something to me?

Gao Huan asked angrily: "Since this is the case, then you still say that sending troops to the south will inevitably lead to defeat?"

"Going back to King Gao, it is your duty to obey King Gao's orders. It is also your duty to truthfully report the situation of King Gao's army. Even if King Gao asks ten or a hundred times again, the last general's answer is that it is not suitable to go south to fight this year."

Duan Shao cupped his hands and said to Gao Huan.

Well, this is an honest boy.Hearing what Duan Shao said, Gao Huan also lost his temper.

He sighed and shook his head, "Sometimes, wars are not only for fighting, but not for winning or losing at all. You still don't understand this truth, alas."

Gao Huan felt the pain of not being understood by the world.

As a leader, he wants to lead the team.Gao Cheng is the eldest son, and Dou Tai is the brother-in-law, both of whom are close to the circle.Since these people are all his confidants, Gao Huan can't act as if nothing happened.

Otherwise, who would take you seriously?Sending troops to avenge Gao Cheng is a political issue, not a military issue!

"Even if I ordered you to lead the troops to the south, you still think it's wrong to send troops, right?"

Gao Huan looked into Duan Shao's eyes and asked, his face extremely serious.

Duan Shao hesitated for a few seconds, and finally cupped his hands and said, "King Hui Gao, it is true."

This made Gao Huan really convinced Duan Shao.

"You go to the mansion in Ye City to rest first, don't go back to Jinzhou, I will call you anytime I need something."

Gao Huan waved his hand, feeling tired for no reason.

"Then I will retire."

Duan Shao saluted carefully, and then exited the study.

Gao Huan lowered his head in thought, feeling very worried about the condition of his eldest son Gao Cheng.

Now that midsummer is here, Gao Huan has already lifted Gao Cheng's confinement, but the prince has indeed restrained himself a little bit, at least there has been no conflict like the conflict with the suffering master.

Now that Gao Cheng had nothing to do, he sent people to watch the daughter of the Yuan family in Yecheng, but there was no movement for the time being, as if he was waiting for an opportunity.

He probably got his head around it, and felt that women from ordinary families didn't have much fun playing with them.Now the Wei State is still ruled by the Yuan Clan in name, Gao Cheng may think that the woman who insults the Yuan Clan will satisfy some emptiness in his heart, so he has made some small moves recently.

Gao Huan had a clear understanding of this and did not interfere in the slightest. It even made people feel that he was taking the opportunity to test some unspeakable things.

"Liu Taozhi, go and call the prince to me." Gao Huan said to Cangtou Liu Taozhi who was waiting outside the door.

In the Northern Wei Dynasty, Cangtou generally refers to the servant who leads the horse for the master and general, and is a confidant among confidants.Gao Huan saw that Liu Taozhi was an honest person, so he kept him by his side whenever he was called.

Liu Taozhi was also loyal to Gao Huan and helped Gao Huan do a lot of dirty work.

After a while, it rained heavily outside, and Gao Cheng came to Bafu's study in a mess. Gao Huan asked him to change into clean clothes, and the father and son sat and drank.

Seeing that Gao Huan remained silent, Gao Cheng asked cautiously, "Father asked the child to come here, what instruction do you have?"

"This time, I plan to send troops south to Xuanhu and other places, led by Duan Shao. Do you have anything to say?"

Gao Huan asked with a smile, but the smile seemed a bit forced.

"Great father, please let the child go with you!"

Gao Cheng said excitedly, grabbing Gao Huan's cuff, his face showed a perverted twist.

"Well, you are not afraid of hardships and dangers, and I am very comforted for my father. Do you have any thoughts about this battle?"

Gao Huan asked calmly.

Gao Cheng was taken aback for a moment, he really hadn't thought about what the battle would be like.

"Father, the Nanren's arrogance was arrogance last time when we dispatched troops and lost troops. If we can't extinguish this arrogance, if our army confronts the Liang army in the future, I'm afraid we will lose first in terms of arrogance."

Gao Cheng was quick-witted, and found a suitable reason after blurting it out.

Gao Huan still nodded with a smile, noncommittal, as if waiting for Gao Cheng to continue.

"Uh, the three armies are invincible. Father thinks this reason is not enough?"

Gao Cheng asked a little impatiently.

Disappointment flashed across Gao Huan's face, and then he smiled indifferently: "It's okay, you can study at ease these days. My father will avenge your revenge."

"Thank you father!"

Gao Cheng was overjoyed and directly knelt down and kowtowed three times to Gao Huan.Due to the heavy rain outside, Gao Cheng will stay in Bafu today and will not return to his "secret base".

After he left, Gao Huan kept looking at the heavy rain outside the window in a daze, his complexion changed several times, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Chapter 471

During this period of time, the political situation in Yecheng made another big move.In the name of the emperor, Yuan Xiu promoted a group of former officials from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the center. Gao Huan readily agreed to this and did not express any dissatisfaction to the outside world.

His gestures are so well done that they are irreproachable.

After all, Gao Huan has always been advocating that he is the defender of the orthodoxy of the Northern Wei Dynasty. If the emperor explicitly obstructs the promotion of his cronies, wouldn't it be true that he is Sima Yi of Cao Wei?

However, Gao Huan's political rank was obviously several grades higher than Yuan Xiu's, and he immediately introduced countermeasures openly and aboveboard.

In the name of the great prime minister, Gao Huan established a new picket department under the banner of the Shangshufu, promoted the children of the Hebei family to join, and appointed the eldest son Gao Cheng as the secretary.This institution is specially used to picket officials, and if any illegal behavior is found, they will all be dismissed.

The prime minister ordered the establishment of a new organization to picket all officials, so as to correct the atmosphere, is this reasonable?As an emperor but you don't want to uphold the morale of the court and rectify the administration of officials, I think you are a foolish emperor, so it's better to abolish you as soon as possible?

Yuan Xiu couldn't think of any way to stop Gao Huan.This wave of "returning the other's way with the other's way" left him speechless.

Under Gao Huan's instigation, Gao Cheng's first fire when he took office wiped out more than half of those cronies promoted by Yuan Xiu!After all, these people are all former ministers of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and few of them are innocent.Just a little research can definitely find a lot of problems.

Yuan Xiu watched helplessly as he had spent a lot of time and energy to win over his cronies, and there was no one out of ten like this, not to mention how aggrieved and uncomfortable he felt.But Gao Huan is in power, and without a suitable opportunity, he has to hold back even if he refuses to accept it!

Gao Huan gave Yuan Xiu a head-on blow. Yuan Xiu didn't dare to do anything to Gao Huan, but he hated Gao Cheng, who performed the knife himself.Yuan Xiu's political ambitions were poured out by Gao Huan's cold water, and he turned his attention to his lower body again.

Since you can't be the emperor well, let's start showing off.

There are so many girls from the Yuan family in Yecheng, there must be one that suits you, right?Since the upper body cannot be happy, let the lower body be happy and make up for it.

Of course, Gao Huan didn't bother to deal with a guy like Yuan Xiu who was jumping up and down. He had more important things to do.

Gao Huan followed Duan Shao's suggestion and planned to secretly send a team of fine cavalry to attack Shouyang and wreak havoc around Shouyang!Once the sneak attack succeeds, immediately withdraw to the north, discard all the belongings and leave.

If the results of the sneak attack are not many, they can also give an explanation to Gao Cheng and Gao Huan's many subordinates.

Gao Huan thought this was a good suggestion, as it would not delay the event of annihilating Er Zhurong, and would not invest a lot.As for how to get it, Duan Shao actually explained it very clearly.

When winter comes, most of the rivers north of the Yangtze River will freeze.What does it matter if the cavalry crosses the river as if walking on level ground?At that time, you only need to stay at night and go out at night, avoid Liang Jun's eyes and ears and go straight to Shouyang.

Shouyang is Liu Yishou's lair, and he wreaks havoc there, even if he can't enter the city, it's still enough for Liu Yishou to drink a pot.In order to support Duan Shao's military operations, Gao Huan personally supervised all auxiliary work, avoiding Sun Teng and others.

On this day, Gao Huan was discussing with Duan Shao about dispatching troops in his study, when suddenly a messenger came from Jinzhou and delivered Gao Yue's autographed letter.

In the letter, Gao Yue told Gao Huan a "strange" news: He Bayue's troops were building a city somewhere in the east of the river!

Hedong was originally controlled by Er Zhurong, but the degree of control was very weak, because the local aristocratic family was extremely powerful, and it had lasted for hundreds of years and was deeply rooted.Er Zhurong has no management talents under his command, so the local rule is useless.

After Gao Huan sent troops to drive away Er Zhurong's army in Hedong, he also dared not do anything to the local clan because of his fear. After all, Er Zhurong's troops were still active in Jinyang.

Today, He Bayue in Guanzhong sent troops to build a city in Hedong. This matter, let’s say it’s not big, it’s just a city, and it’s a newly built city with only military functions. In fact, there is very little that can be done.

But this matter is not small, so it should not be taken lightly.It is better to be cautious before understanding the opponent's strategic intentions.

The core of the problem is: where is this city built?

Under Gao Huan's command, there are also people from Hedong, so Gao Huan ordered that those who are familiar with the affairs of Hedong can come to Bafu to offer advice and discuss major issues.

The matter of He Bayue's army building the city in Hedao was not a military secret, and it was already known in the streets and alleys inside and outside the court hall in Ye City.However, the people who went to Gao Huan for advice did not understand why.

In ancient times, there were no satellites or airplanes, and the geography of mountains and rivers was a very large and profound knowledge.Even if it is a government map, it will only mark cities, and at most there will be rivers.

Those passes and the like can't be seen on the map at all.

Gao Yue and the others were not familiar with the geography of Hedong, and when they got there, they only found that Wei Xiaobang led people to build the city, but that place was not under the control of Pingyang City!

They also didn't know what He Bayue wanted to do.If you send troops rashly, what if the enemy army comes to attack the whole country and fight back to Pingyang?

Gao Yue wanted to be safe, and he also wanted to know Gao Huan's true thoughts. He would only decide how to deal with this matter after receiving a firm order.

Never send troops foolishly.

Just when Gao Huan was perplexed by He Bayue's actions in Guanzhong and was at a loss.A reporter who copied documents in the Overlord's Mansion ran to Gao Huan to offer advice.

In the study, Gao Huan squinted his eyes at the teenager in front of him, but he couldn't remember his name!

But what he can be sure of is that the place where documents are copied in the Overlord's Mansion is definitely a hidden dragon and crouching tiger.Cui Jishu came from there, so Gao Huan didn't dare to underestimate him.

"What's your name?"

Gao Huan asked in a deep voice.

"Under Tang Yong, named Daohe, is from Jinyang and is familiar with the geography of Hedong."

Tang Yong saluted Gao Huan neither humble nor overbearing.

"Well, tell me, what happened to the people from Guanzhong who went to Hedong to build the city?"

Gao Huan asked in a very formulaic manner. He had asked this question many times before, and to be honest, he was already numb.
