After raising the emperor, he always wanted to marry me

Han Mochu slaughtered nearly half of the people in Xuantu City that night, and the adult men were almost killed.The old, weak, women and children who survived by luck also became frightened birds.

After a little rectification, Han Mochu confiscated all available cattle, grain, ironware, etc. in the city.Only a small amount of grain was left to feed the surviving people in the city.Finally, the gate of the city was nailed to death with giant wood, and the people in the city were allowed to fend for themselves.

After 21 days, three groups of people gathered under Baiyan City, and once again encountered stubborn resistance from the defending general Cui Yong.

Since the day of the siege, Cui Yong let the women and old people in the city climb up the tower to boost the morale of the soldiers.

Gu Xiu led the army to attack for more than ten days, but could not attack for a long time.

Just when the battle situation was getting tense, a blizzard suddenly fell in the sky.

Taking advantage of the blizzard, Gu Xiu ordered the cavalry who were good at snow to take the lead in the attack, and took advantage of the blizzard and poor sightlines to forcibly open the gate of Baiyan City.

The army rushed into the city in one fell swoop, regardless of whether it was officials, civilians or soldiers, and anyone who resisted would be killed without mercy.In the end, the guard Cui Yong died under the sword of Han Mochu.

This protracted and vicious battle has finally come to an end.

Because the people in Baiyan City are proud of fighting, so on the day the defenders announced their surrender, Gu Xiu ordered all the adult men in the city to cut off their arms, otherwise the three clans would all be wiped out.

Only then did the riots that might occur at any time like Xuantu City be suppressed in time.

The king's army went out and won four cities in a row in March, and the army was already a little tired, so Gu Xiu ordered to rectify in this Baiyan city for ten days.

In the middle of the night, on the tip of the moon.

In the temporary barracks, the charcoal basin was burning vigorously.Gu Xiu ordered Huotoujun to bring him and Han Mochu a large bucket of steaming water.

The two men who hadn't removed their armor for three months finally had the opportunity to wipe off the blood and dirt accumulated on their bodies for days.As the commander-in-chief of an army, one cannot be ashamed after all.

The moment the armor was removed, Han Mochu realized that there seemed to be a painful wound on his back, and because he hadn't removed the armor and changed clothes for a long time, the inner garment seemed to be connected to the wound.He had no choice but to grit his teeth and tore off the scab on the wound and the inner garment together. The blood meandered instantly and flowed down his fingertips.

"Hiss...uh..." Han Mochu supported his shoulders, and Gu Xiu, who was hiding something under his armor, called out, "Your Highness, please take a look at the back of this minister What's wrong?"

Hearing this, Gu Xiu walked around behind Han Mochu without hesitation, only to see a knife wound that had lasted for an unknown amount of time, half of the scab had been torn off, and the area around the wound was already red, swollen and inflamed.

"Injured, but not serious." Gu Xiu looked at Han Mo Chuchi!Apart from the fresh scar on his bare back, there are six neat welts running across his back, as well as some inconspicuous old injuries.

For some reason, looking at Han Mo Chuchi!With his bare back, Gu Xiu suddenly became unable to think.

At the last moment, he was still thinking about how to wipe the wound with Han Mochu, and found some wound medicine and cotton cloth to bandage it.But just for a moment, he began to feel at a loss, and walked around the barracks twice without remembering what he was looking for.

"Your Highness? How about calling a military doctor?" Han Mochu cleaned the cotton cloth in clear water, and tried to reach his back with the other hand.

"No, don't move around." Han Mochu's actions reminded Gu Xiu that he wanted to find medicine for him.

After a while, Gu Xiu finally found out the wound medicines and cotton cloths left in the camp, and put them in a lot.

On the battlefield, everyone is half a trauma doctor.

Gu Xiu was no exception. He first soaked the soft towel in his hand and wiped off the other half of the blood scab on Han Mochu's wound bit by bit, squeezed out the pus and blood that caused the wound inflammation, and then sprinkled the swelling and analgesic powder, Wrap in cotton cloth at the end.

During the whole process, Gu Xiu only felt that his cheeks were hot and his heart was beating suddenly, as if it was going to pop out of his chest.I remember the last time at Mohe Border Pass, when Han Mochu fell asleep with his arms around him naked, he also had such a rapid heartbeat and feverish face, and even made the place a mess.

He, Gu Xiu, has spent so many days in the military camp, and he has seen a lot of shirtless military men in midsummer, and he never felt that there was anything to blush.

Why did Han Mochu face him naked, and when he got close to him, his heartbeat would inexplicably speed up.

The strangest thing is that this feeling does not affect the daily closeness between him and Han Mochu, as well as the tacit understanding on the battlefield.

After all, although his master is good-looking, his well-proportioned and firm muscles and the piled up scars after injury don't look like a woman no matter what.

Where did this problem of blushing and heartbeat come from?

"Your Highness, is it too loose?" Han Mochu supported the wall of the barrel with both hands, looking helplessly at a piece of cotton yarn hanging from his chest.

"It's too tight, I'm afraid you will hurt."

"A little injury, I don't hurt."

Han Mochu smiled and let Gu Xiu and him tidy up the bandages on his body. The warm water in the bucket was a bit cold.

Conditions in the army were limited, so the two of them simply scrubbed the dirt off their bodies with this bucket of warm water.Gu Xiu's heartbeat was still beating violently, especially when he saw Han Mochu raised his neck and scrubbed his chin.Slender neck, slightly protruding Adam's apple, when the soft towel was wiped, the Adam's apple slowly moved.Gu Xiu's throat unconsciously rose with thirst, and his mind went blank.

From the corner of Han Mochu's eyes, he saw Gu Xiu standing there in a daze, and asked softly, "Your Highness, do you want me to wipe your back for you?"

"No!" Gu Xiu who came back to his senses hastily took a step back and flatly refused.

When Han Mo first saw Gu Xiu with a sullen face, he originally wanted to tease him to say a few more words, but who knew that the child refused so simply.As if there was something untouchable on his back.

"What's wrong with your Highness's back?" Han Mochu frowned slightly, and finally noticed the two unnatural blushes on Gu Xiu's cheeks, and raised his hand to touch his forehead: "It's weird, I never had a fever, why is Your Highness's face so red?" so powerful?"

"It's nothing, you worry too much, it's the heat." Gu Xiu took a step back, avoiding Han Mochu's touch, turned his back to change the clean underwear, and quickly hid a small thing in his close-fitting underwear. In the bosom.

Han Mochu took a careful look at Gu Xiu's back. The young man's muscular lines supported his strong and powerful body, and there was nothing special about the tall and straight back except for a few bruises and scratches. She still didn't want to understand why Gu Xiu was so determined not to let her touch his back.

It was late at night, and the two of them finished scrubbing and changing their clothes. The rare relaxation made Gu Xiu's eyes sink.However, he still insisted on accompanying Han Mochu to sort out the military reports these days under the night light.

Han Mochu picked up a pen to write documents, and Gu Xiu sat across from them to help them turn on the lights, grind ink, and quietly stayed up late with them.

"Isn't Your Highness still arguing? Why are you here again now?" Han Mochu chuckled and said, "Are you asking for something again?"

"No." Gu Xiu propped his forehead, and squinted at Han Mochu who was writing under the lamp: "Besides, when did I get into trouble with you?"

It's strange to say that when Han Mochu was dressed like this, Gu Xiu wouldn't be so embarrassed, but liked to lean in front of him.

"Forget it, if your Highness says there is no, then there is none." Han Mochu shook his head noncommittally: "The battle has already started, Goguryeo has lost four cities in a row, and our army's morale is high. Your Highness, can you think about how to quickly win the battle?"

"Well, I think ten days later we will set up camp and take a boat across the sea from Donglai to attack Beisa City. Beisa is the breadbasket of the whole country of Goguryeo. It is now the farming season. If we attack Beisa and disrupt the farming season, the Goryeo garrison can be exhausted within six months. The supply of stale food will cut off the way out." When it comes to these military and political matters, Gu Xiu will always come to life in an instant.

"Your Highness is indeed a general. As long as you take Beisha City, you will strangle Goguryeo's throat." Han Mochu had been writing by the night light for a long time, his eyes became a little sore unconsciously, and he stretched out two fingers to slowly massage the Jingming acupoint .

"Why don't you tell me, and I'll write it." Gu Xiu moved himself to Han Mochu's side and reached out to try to take the penholder from the man's hand.

"Your Highness, it is the duty of joining the army to submit the military report, so I should do it myself."

"You said that writing under the night light hurts your eyes. Why did you forget it?" Gu Xiu still took the pen holder from Han Mochu, and sat at the table instead of him: "In the past, you never allowed me to read under the light." More than an hour. Why is it special when you come to me?"

"Then, I will thank Your Highness."

Yongxi 20th year, April.

Master Wang captured Beisha City and destroyed all the rice, wheat and other crops in the city that were in the growing season. Hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land were burned by fire.

Yongxi 20th year, May.

Wang Shi ambushed in the mountains and captured Jian'an City.The city guard led an army of 5000 men to surrender to the king's division.Confiscated more than [-] cattle and horses.There are also tens of thousands of trophies such as iron armor and weapons.

Yongxi 20th year, June.

Master Wang crossed the Lushui River, conquering the small towns along the river in Goguryeo along the way. Some small towns with insufficient combat power directly abandoned the city and fled because of fear of Master Wang's bravery.Wherever Master Wang went, there was no human habitation for hundreds of miles.

Yongxi 20th year, August.

Wang Shi is as powerful as a broken bamboo, and has successively won thirteen large cities including Xuantu, Liaodong, Jian'an, and Maigu, and is about to enter the capital Pyongyang.

King Gaoli finally couldn't hold back anymore.Qi Zuo surrendered the letter, willing to hand over half of the northern part of Goguryeo to Dazhou, just to keep the capital safe.

Yongxi 20th year, September.

King Goryeo sent his eldest son Mo Zhili to enter Bianjing with the imperial army as a minister to present peace talks.

In the military tent of Chief General Wang, Gu Xiu, the king of war, sat on the main seat, looking solemnly at the death lists played by officers at all levels.

In this battle, Wang Shi killed 800 people, twice as many as when he went to Mohe. Most of the soldiers died in the water battle, and their bones sank directly into the river, and they could not be found. .

Outside the king's tent, there were several ear-piercing curses.

"Da Zhoutian! Chao, that's how he received the envoys? A bunch of stupid pigs! I won't eat such pig food!"

"I'm the son of Goryeo, and I should be honored with your military commander. That's how you treat me perfunctorily!"

"Today, if you can't satisfy this prince! I will sue you all to the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, saying that you have treated the envoys harshly! Look at you! Where will you put the face of Shangbang!"

Gu Xiu suddenly jumped up, pressed the long sword on his waist, and walked straight to the front of the tent.

"Your Highness, please calm down." Han Mochu grabbed Gu Xiu's arm: "He is an envoy, a general, and His Highness wants to take him back alive by order."

"Alive? What right does he have to live?" Gu Xiu shook off Han Mochu's hand, and said in a cold tone: "Out of the 800 people, less than [-] have recovered their bones. If this king allows him to be so presumptuous in the army, I will I'm sorry for these soldiers who died in battle!"

"Your Highness, it's time for a peace negotiation. If His Highness kills him now, there will be another war." Han Mochu held Gu Xiu's arms with both hands, and stopped in front of him.

"If we fight again, we will fight again, so what if this family is completely wiped out!" Gu Xiu's strength was no longer inferior to Han Mochu's.The two evenly matched men were deadlocked in the barracks: "If I don't kill him today, I won't be worthy to be the commander-in-chief of the king's army!"

"Your Highness! If you kill him! It's against the decree!"

"Resist the decree and resist the decree!" Gu Xiu's arms suddenly exerted strength, and he threw Han Mochu away.

Anxious Han Mochu was not polite, and directly punched Gu Xiu in the face: "Gu Yunchi, why are you crazy! Are you going to pay the whole army for such a bereaved dog who can only speak quickly!"

Gu Xiu was kicked back a few steps by Han Mochu's punch and hit the wooden frame supporting the tent. The punch was so powerful that the corner of Gu Xiu's mouth was broken.

However, the effect of that punch was still very significant, and the pain at the corner of his mouth really calmed Gu Xiu down. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his fingertips, panting for breath, trying to calm down the anger in his heart.

"Your Highness, don't you just want to vent your anger? After a cup of tea, Your Highness came out of the camp to see." Han Mochu straightened out the battle armor that was messed up during the fight with Gu Xiu, and went straight out of the tent to call out to the side who was scrubbing the ghost. Xionghu with a big sword in his head.

"Old Xiong, go to the envoy's tent and invite the crown prince out of here."

"Okay, Han joins the army." Xiong Hu resisted with his broadsword on his shoulder, and after a while, he threw Mo Zhili, the heir apparent of Korea, in front of Han Mochu like a chicken with plague: "Join the army, he brought it here."

"Okay." Han Mochu raised the corners of his mouth and looked at the Crown Prince Gaoli who fell to the ground in front of him, pointing to the flag flying high in the middle of the barracks, and said loudly: "Old Xiong, listen carefully, from now on, Gaoli The prince voluntarily pays homage to the fallen soldiers of our dynasty, and kowtows [-] times before the royal flag..."

"Han Mochu! I am the son of Goryeo! I should be honored with the king of the country! How dare you treat me like this!" Mo Zhili raised his head proudly, his arrogance symbolized the only dignity remaining in the defeated Goryeo.

Han Mochu lowered his voice to Mo Zhili's ear, and said in a very fluent Korean language, "A dog that loses its family should look like a dog that loses its family."

"I, Goguryeo, used 27 cities, 33 soldiers and civilians, and countless iron oxen and horses. Couldn't it be worth the lives of those 800 people?!" Mo Zhili gritted his teeth and asked Han Mochu sharply: "Your dynasty What did the army do in Xuantu, Jian'an, and Baiyan? Is the life of the people of Korea worthless?!"

"In the final analysis, it was you who launched the war to provoke the authority of the country for the sake of a small land as small as Jiang. Master Wang did not invade the capital this time, so that your father and king still have the opportunity to beg for surrender, and you are still alive today. Kneeling here and kowtowing is already the greatest kindness." Han Mochu thought of the widows' homes that he walked with Gu Xiu, and everyone was so sad that it made people feel depressed: "Every soldier in our dynasty is a general Their lives are handed over to the imperial court, so they are naturally precious. But what about your people? It was you who refused to negotiate peace with your father and king at first, and it was you who personally turned them into cattle and sheep to be slaughtered. Still have the face to question me? Don't you think it's too ridiculous?"

Mo Zhili's lips trembled and he couldn't say a word.The defeated army will surrender, so what if you lift yourself up higher?What Han Mochu said was right, he is now a lost dog.

"Old Xiong, remember to kowtow for an hour, let him rest, and don't let him die." Han Mochu patted Xiong Hu on the shoulder, and then glanced at his son Mo Zhili: "Don't worry, my son. Treat your envoys with respect, and your food and clothing supplies will be the highest courtesy before the king returns to the court."

With Mo Zhili's dazed effort, Han Mochu had already walked away, replaced by the Xiong Hu holding a big knife in his arms.Xiong Hu's world is very simple. Seeing Mo Zhili kneeling still, he pushed his head down: "Master Joining the Army asked you to kowtow, you didn't hear me!"

Time flew by in the time of a cup of tea, Gu Xiu who was inside the king's tent lifted the curtain and walked out, only to see in the distance the prince of Korea who had been yelling and cursing all day long, looking at Master Wang's face like a kowtowing bug. Da Qi kowtowed continuously, and the anger rushing to the top of his chest really eased up a lot.

At the beginning of Xu, lights were lit in the camp.

With half of his cheeks swollen, Gu Xiu sat under the lamp without saying a word, holding a book of war in his hand.

Han Mochu came in from outside the tent carrying a tray, and the cold wind outside the tent startled Gu Xiu.Gu Xiu raised his eyebrows lightly, seeing that it was Han Mochu who came and turned his body to the side calmly.

Han Mochu didn't say much, he put the tray directly on Gu Xiu's table, and used his hand as a fan to fan the aroma of steamed milk in the bowl towards Gu Xiu.

Gu Xiu glanced sideways at the exquisite food in the bowl, which is rare in the army, and said unmoved, "It seems that this king didn't let Han Canjun come over."

"I saw that His Highness didn't go to dinner today, so I asked the cook to make steamed milk with rose sugar specially for His Highness. Would you like to try it?"

"Han Canjun, how do you think this king is going to eat with everyone in this state?" Gu Xiu closed the scroll in his hand, raised his eyebrows and looked at Han Mochu in front of him.

Han Mochu's punch was so powerful that Gu Xiu's left half of his face was swollen and the corner of his mouth was broken.The scars on his face made this general, Gu Xiu, who was always known for his strict military management, look somewhat embarrassed.

"I know that I shouldn't hurt Your Highness's face in a hurry today." Han Mochu smiled and pushed the bowl of milk soup in Gu Xiu's direction again: "May I ask Your Highness to forgive me?"

Gu Xiu remained silent, and turned around coldly.

"Your Highness, I really know I'm wrong." Han Mochu's tone became more and more earnest: "I'm clearly accompanying the army with a ruler, how can I hit Your Highness in the face?"

Hearing the word "ruler", Gu Xiu glanced vigilantly at Han Mochu who was facing him. He was surprised to find that Han Mochu had already held the extremely smooth mahogany ruler at some point in his hand.

"Cough." Gu Xiu covered his mouth with a cold face and coughed lightly, turned around and brought the bowl of warm milk soup in front of him and put it into his mouth one by one.

"Your Highness? Is it delicious?" Han Mochu suppressed a smile and put the ruler back in his hand: "Is it too sweet?"

"No." Gu Xiu's answer was very dishonest, because he was so guilty that he basically didn't taste the bowl of milk soup.Han Mochu's ever-present ruler seemed to make his scalp tingle instantly no matter how old he was.

"That's good." Han Mochu stood next to Gu Xiu with a pleasant smile, reached out his hand and stroked Gu Xiu's hair as he did when he was a child, and said softly, "I'm full, do you want to put fifty gold with me? "

"Okay." Gu Xiu raised his head, the corner of his mouth was stained with a little bit of pure white milk.Under the lights, the young man's clear eyes met Han Mochu's warm smiling face.

Han Mochu feels in a daze that Gu Xiu hasn't changed at all these years.

Even if he has already experienced the slaughter on the battlefield, seen the disputes in the court and the court, brothers killed each other, and learned to win over the king's heart and control power.

He is still that innocent boy.
