Gao Pei has a straightforward personality, bravery, and very good martial arts, which can at least reach the level of third-rate or above. The most important thing is that Gao Pei is very loyal and will seriously implement the emperor's orders.
If you compare Gao Pei with Zhang Liao and Xu Huang in terms of command, he will definitely be outmatched. If you compare him with Zhao Yundianwei in terms of martial arts, there will definitely be a huge difference!
But looking at the whole of Yizhou, Gao Pei is definitely a talent!
In history, Liu Zhang invited Liu Bei to Sichuan to garrison Jiameng Pass. Baishui Pass, the gate of fortune and misfortune, was garrisoned by Gao Pei. Unfortunately, he was deceived by Liu Bei's plan.
Whether it is Gao Pei or Gao Yan, they are the kind of generals who can be entrusted with a city or a place. You cannot have too high expectations for them, but they will never disappoint the monarch when delivering tasks. This is what Liu Zhang values of them most.
reason.
If Gao Yan were allowed to defend Baishui Pass under normal circumstances, no matter which of Liu Zhang's generals came, it would be difficult to conquer it for a while.
"General Gao, I wonder who Gao Pei is?"
Gao Yan was slightly startled, he didn't expect Liu Zhang to know about their Gao family's affairs.
"General Qi Wei, Gao Pei is the younger brother of the clan."
That's right!
Liu Zhang also understood that it was estimated that these civil servants and generals recorded in history should all be members of the Yizhou family.
"Are you willing to surrender?"
I thought that Gao Yan would kneel down happily to accept the surrender, but I didn't expect that he would shake his head and reject Liu Zhang.
"Thank you, General Wei, for taking this seriously, but Gao Yan cannot surrender."
"Why?"
This really surprised Liu Zhang. After talking to Gao Yan for a few words, he could feel Gao Yan's admiration for him.
"If Zhang Lu, the governor of Guanghan County, knows that I surrendered to General Wei, our Gao family will be in great trouble!"
Gao Yan had no resistance to surrendering to Liu Zhang. On the contrary, he admired Liu Zhang very much. Unfortunately, he had family ties and he couldn't act arbitrarily!
"Zhang Lu dares to attack the Gao family?"
Liu Zhang's tone was filled with disbelief. The aristocratic families in Yizhou were different from those in other prefectures and counties of the Han Dynasty. They would work together and share the same hatred against the enemy.
This is similar to the situation of the four major families in Jiangdong, Gu, Lu, Zhu, and Zhang, but it is still different. Only the four major families in Jiangdong are truly united, but in Yizhou, they are almost an alliance of aristocratic families.
This is also the reason why Yizhou as a whole is quite xenophobic. Yizhou people don’t like outside leaders, and they prefer Yizhou people to govern Yizhou.
Gao Yan didn't speak, just shook his head and sighed helplessly.
"General Gao, the Yizhou family is famous for their unity. If Zhang Lu dares to attack the Gao family, then he, the governor of Guanghan County, will probably end up doing it!"
Liu Zhang thought for a while and explained it to Gao Yan, but Liu Zhang always felt that Gao Yan should know this truth.
Gao Yan still looked melancholy, and his expression was filled with sadness.
"Hey! General Wei doesn't know. The Gao family is originally a declining family, and its status is not high in Guanghan County, let alone the entire Yizhou! Now Zhang Lu has united with several top families in Yizhou, even if we are destroyed
No one in the Gao family will say anything..."
The hatred in Gao Yan's heart was overwhelming. If it weren't for the threat from his family, why would he have allowed himself to be manipulated by Yang Bai!
"Zhang Lu united with the Yizhou clans, which ones are they?"
Liu Zhang felt something bad in his heart. If all these big families were won over by Zhang Lu, it would undoubtedly be more difficult for him to take control of Yizhou!
"The Jia family, the Ren family, the Zhao family and the Qiao family. These are the ones I know, and there may be many more that I don't know. However, these four families are all well-known big families in Yizhou, and they can make us small people even better with just a few steps.
The clan is destroyed!”
Gao Yan answered quickly. It seems that this matter must be known to everyone in Shu!
"It's a pity that Yang Bai ran away, otherwise General Wei would have known clearly by asking him. He is Zhang Lu's confidant."
Liu Zhang raised the corners of his mouth, looked in the direction of the other gate, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Run? Can he escape?"
Did Yang Bai run away? If it was true for Baishui Pass, he did run away. At this moment, Yang Bai was riding a fast horse. He had left Baishui Pass far away and was rushing to Jiameng Pass!
As long as we reach Jiameng Pass, everything will be safe, and Zhang Wei can be reminded to prepare quickly to deal with Liu Zhang's attack at any time.
"Quick! Speed up! We must get to Jiameng Pass before dark!"
Yang Bai was not alone, he was accompanied by a hundred guards assigned to him by Zhang Lu! Even though he was already marching at full speed, Yang Bai kept urging.
"Don't worry, Yang Changshi, Liu Zhang will definitely not be able to catch up with us!"
The guard commander frowned, stroked the horse under his crotch with his hand, and kept trying to comfort Yang Bai.
The skin of the war horses is already a little hot! If we continue to press like this, it is very likely that they will not be able to reach Jiameng Pass, and these horses will die of heatstroke!
"Bastard, what do you know! Once Liu Zhang catches up, it will be all over! Once there is a mistake at Jiameng Pass, how will you explain it to Master Zhang?"
How can Yang Bai take care of so much? In his opinion, the top priority now is to run away as soon as possible and wait until he dies!
"Quick! Faster!"
Yang Bai whipped the horse wildly, not caring about the horse's life or death.
Soon, retribution will come!
The war horse finally exceeded its limit and fell to the ground while running at high speed. Yang Bai was also thrown a long distance by the inertia!
"Ouch! You knocked me to death!"
Yang Bai kept rolling on the ground, feeling like all the bones in his body were falling apart!
The leader of the guards quickly stopped the team and hurriedly dismounted to check Yang Bai's injury.
"Yang Changshi! Are you okay?"
The guard commander's face was full of anxiety, but he was so happy in his heart! Let you, a bitch, not listen to me and tire the horse to death! Let's see how you get back!
"Ouch! Why don't you help me up!"
Yang Bai was so angry that today was so unlucky! Liu Zhang, who had already reached his mouth, not only didn't eat it, but almost bit him! Now even the horse was against him and threw him away.
Get out!
"You are a dead person! Why don't you help me up!"
When Yang Bai saw that the guard commander was still stunned, he was even more angry and vented all the anger in his heart on him.
The guard commander was furious, but Yang Bai was a popular person around Zhang Lu, so he could only endure it and quickly knelt down to help Yang Bai up.
"Take it easy! You idiot! You don't know I'm hurt!"
The guard commander only touched the corner of Yang Bai's clothes, not even touching his body, and he was scolded again.
"Yes! I'll be gentle..."
At this moment, a burst of sound suddenly came from the air.
Phew! Phew! Phew!...
Countless arrows were shot out from both sides, instantly knocking the guards on their horses off their feet!
After a round of arrows, one hundred guards were wiped out! Only Yang Bai and the guard commander were left!
Then dense soldiers appeared in the dense forest on both sides at the same time, everyone was holding a bow and arrow, and the arrow was already strung!
"ah!"
This time, Yang Bai was so frightened that a large area of his butt was wet!
