It was another silent journey, with only the "click, click" sound of feet stepping on the snow surrounding the ears of the father and son.
Gai Xun suddenly asked: "Does your mother know about this?"
"I know." Gai Jun nodded.
"Did she agree?" Gai Xun asked again. His wife Ma Zhao never mentioned this in the letter to him, so he was probably convinced.
"Yes. At first, grandma was very angry, and little He'er cried and fussed. Later, mother and daughter chatted for a whole day and night, and grandma was convinced." Gai Jun opened his mouth and said nonsense. Ma Zhaoru would definitely give him a slap in the face here.
When did she agree? She was just afraid that her daughter would do extreme things when she was emotionally excited, so she suppressed it deliberately. She was not worried because she knew that her husband would never agree to the marriage.
Gai Xun asked in a deep voice: "What will you do if I insist on refusing?" He knows his son better than his father. Gai Xun knows his son's character very well. How many misfortunes did he bear for Xiao He'er when he was young? How many beatings and scolds did he receive?
There are too many to count. This matter is related to Xiao He'er's lifelong happiness. Gai Jun will do anything for her, even disobeying his parents.
Gai Jun really thought about it, and he didn't dare to hide it when Gai Xun mentioned it. Na Na said: "Let the two of them go back to Hexi." In history, Han Sui has been in chaos in Liangzhou for decades. What is the situation of the four counties in Hexi? Gai Jun didn't dare to hide it.
Clearly, he had two guesses, either surrendering to Han Sui or being in a semi-separatist state. It might be different now, but it would be enough to prevent Gai Xun from catching the two of them.
"The traitor..." Gai Xun commented on his son with a gloomy face.
Gai Jun was speechless. As long as his A-mei was happy, he was willing to bear all the consequences. In other words, it was not just A-mei, but also his family. His family had given him infinite warmth in his two lives. For them, he could be the enemy of the world, and
Fearless.
Gai Xun didn't say a word until he entered the official residence and sat on the mat in the study. Gai Jun didn't dare to leave, so he just stood in the hall.
A quarter of an hour passed...
Two quarters of an hour passed...
Three quarters of an hour passed...
An hour passed...
Gai Xun raised his lowered eyelids and said slowly: "How is Yang Boyang? If you dare to tell lies, you will be punished without mercy!"
Gai Jun secretly thought there was something wrong, and after careful consideration he replied: "Boyang... has martial arts talent and ranks at the top of my army. I taught him Zuo Chuan a while ago. He studied it very seriously and can now recite it..."
Seeing his father staring at him fiercely, as if blaming him for premeditated plans, Gai Jun hurriedly explained: "He is not the only one. When my son saw a good 'uncut jade', he taught them Zuozhuan and the art of war. The courage of an ordinary man is not advisable.
It is indispensable for generals to know how to read, and I hope they can become independent talents in the future."
"The courage of an ordinary man is not advisable, and a general must not know the book..." Gai Xun savored this sentence carefully and nodded in agreement. This is a wise saying.
Gai Jun continued: "As for his character, he is upright, upright, not good at words, and promises a lot of money. He has been in the army for more than half a year and has never messed with camp prostitutes. He is quite self-disciplined. And I made it clear to him that he will not take concubines in this life.
, he nodded in agreement..."
Gai Xun glanced sideways at his son. This bastard doted on his sister to no end. His last condition was so difficult that it would make 99% of people flinch.
"Father, our Dunhuang Gai family has been a high-ranking official for five generations and has reached the level of two thousand stone officials in my generation. I have the confidence to push the name of Dunhuang Gai family to the top of the world in my lifetime. We don't need to rely on marriage...
I know that my father has no intention of getting married, otherwise he would not have delayed Xiao He'er until today. I think my father's idea is that the children of the gentry should be well educated, cultured, talented and well-educated. However, I believe that after my careful teaching,
Boyang will not be worse than them, only better."
"Father... I only have one sister. I have no requirements for her. My biggest wish is that she can be happy and live a carefree life, so I have been accommodating her and satisfying her... as long as
She likes it, what does it matter whether this person is handsome, ugly, rich or poor?" When talking about the emotional point, both father and son were moved.
Gai Xun sighed and said after a long time: "In two years, Boyang will need two thousand stones."
"Okay!" Gai Jun said decisively.
"You must memorize the Five Classics by heart and be proficient in at least one. I will take a test when the time comes."
"Okay!" Gai Jun gritted his teeth and said.
Gai Xun waved his hands and said with a tired look on his face: "Okay, I'm tired, you should rest earlier."
"promise.".
------
Gai Jun stayed in Gaoling for three full days. On the one hand, there were some Northerners in the army. The Northern Territory fell and the people fled to Zuofengyi. Gai Jun let them and their families stay warm for a while, and secondly, he contacted eight thousand county soldiers.
Level chief officers should have a general understanding of their abilities and personalities. The third step is to prepare for the expedition, including food, weapons, and civilians, all of which take time.
Three days later, that is, on November 12, the second year of Zhongping in the Han Dynasty, the army was about to set off. From Zuo Fengyi to Gaixun, officials and civilians, big and small, came to see him off.
"Jinnu, my father is waiting for your good news." Gai Xun looked tired and dizzy. In order to make the Han army worry-free and kill the enemy with peace of mind, he was so busy these three days that he spent all the time sleeping.
In less than five hours, he felt exhausted and exhausted. Fortunately, he successfully completed the task and even exceeded it.
Gai Jun said solemnly: "Father, thank you for your hard work..."
Gai Xunqiang said with a smile: "If you think I am working hard, take back the Northland. This is my wish."
"Nuo." Gai Jun bowed deeply, then turned around, leaped onto his horse, and said loudly: "Let's go..."
Following Gai Jun's order, the army roared into action and headed north in a mighty manner. The Han army's black armor shone brightly in the sun, and their banners covered the sky. They stretched for several miles, and their military appearance was extremely strong. Behind them were tens of thousands of civilians and five thousand vehicles.
They took hundreds of large crossbows, millions of arrows of all kinds, food, armor, and weapons, and emptied half of Zuo Fengyi's arsenal.
Gai Shehu is back! Luodiao Changshi is back! Gai Jun, Gai Ying, who used more than a thousand men to go rampant among the Qiang, killed more than ten thousand Qiang, and made the Qiang people fear him like a man of heaven, is back! He will lead tens of thousands of Han people
Erlang fought back to the Northland and regained the lost ground! After hearing the news, the people of the former Northland who were scattered all over Zuofengyi rushed to the place where the army passed by, regardless of the severe cold, and lined the streets to welcome him.
"The long history of falling eagles..."
"The long history of falling eagles..."
Thousands of people in the North were in high spirits, and their cheers formed waves of sound, soaring into the sky. Among these people were men, women, old people, and children... They were either common people, or from wealthy families, or
The family may be rich or impoverished. They may be enemies, friends, relatives, fellow countrymen, or they may have never met each other before and will never meet again in the future. But they have one thing in common. They desperately want to return to their hometown and the North.
…
"The long history of falling eagles..."
"The long history of falling eagles..."
Zhao Qi, Tao Qian and others looked at each other. They had known that Gai Jun was very famous in Xiliang. It is said that when Gai Jun returned to his hometown to marry a girl from the Cai family, thousands of people in all cities in Liangzhou rushed to witness it. They thought it was just an exaggeration. But now they see
Only then will we know that the rumors are true.
Tao Qian looked solemn and said loudly: "With the support of the people, our Han army will be invincible and win every battle!");.
