Ming Taizi's Total War

Chapter 150 Pioneer Officer Gao Yuanjue
Although Shen Liangru's official university is much lower than Gao Jie's in terms of rank, there cannot be such a simple comparison between civil servants and military officials.

So Gao Jie didn't dare to lose his temper with Shen Liangru casually, so he could only sit quietly and listen to him, but Gao Jie wasn't afraid of him, he just wanted to hear what he had to say first, as long as what he said was not in his interest, He can still shoot tables and copy guys.

"Gao Jie, I know you." Shen Liangru said, pointing at Gao Jie.

"At the beginning when you betrayed Li Chuang, it was the first emperor who took you in and let you serve in the army. Later, the first emperor made you an earl, rewarded your whole family, and allowed you to be a wife and son, and honor the lintel. It can be said that he has treated you well To the extreme."

"Now that the crown prince is enthroned as emperor, and he is using you in important military and state affairs, you are shrinking back and retreating when encountering battles. Tell me, why do you have to hide your face to meet the two saints? What qualifications do you have to wear noble purple and stand here to face the emperor?" I'm talking nonsense."

"Gao Jie, if you still know the principle of father and son between monarch and minister, you should do your best to kill the enemy under the command of the general and the Shi Ge Department, instead of sitting here all day long, eating wine and meat, feasting on food, or looting places."

Shen Liangru uttered a lot of words like a cannonball, and now he completely tore off the fig leaf between Gao Jie and the court.

"Shen Liangru, no matter what you say is good or bad, don't always catch me talking alone, let's call Liu Zeqing and Xu Dingguo to come and listen to this, okay?"

"I, Gao Jie, am not what you said. It's just that these days of marching and siege, the soldiers are too tired, and there is nothing to reward them. Now that you are here to question me, what do you tell me to do?"

Gao Jie didn't scold Shen Liangru tit for tat, and he didn't know how to scold Shen Liangru. In addition, he was really guilty, so he had to find some high-sounding reasons to prevaricate Shen Liangru.

But before Shen Liangru could speak, Gao Yuanjue helped Shen Liangru teach Gao Jie a lesson.

"Father, Your Majesty treats our Gao family well. We should fight hard and repay your kindness. I know you are because of those two guys, Liu Zeqing and Xu Dingguo. Now the Fujun envoy is here, and the emperor is behind you." , why bother with that cowardly fellow again."

After Gao Yuanjue said this, Shen Liangru realized that there was something tricky between Gao Jie, Liu Zeqing and Xu Dingguo.

For this, Gao Jie also had his own difficulties. He wanted to regain the Central Plains and make great achievements, but he didn't want to suffer too much damage and greatly reduce his own strength.

He wanted to be loyal to his father and regain lost ground for the country, and he also wanted to rely on each other with Liu Zeqing and others, so as to ensure that his power would not be disintegrated by the court and could be passed on from generation to generation.

It's a pity that Gao Jie is not a son of a plane, a son of luck, and he doesn't have the strength and opportunity, so now he is caught in the middle and is not a human being.

"What do you know, little baby? It's not your place for me to talk to Lord Shen." Although Gao Jie knew that his son's words were reasonable, he felt that Gao Yuanjue should not be involved in the conversation between him and Shen Liangru.

"Hey, why is Uncle Xingping like this? The little general will inherit your career in the future, and besides, he is also a general of the imperial court, why can't he talk to me."

"I was ordered by the emperor to be the envoy of Henan Fujun, so I have the right to intervene with all the soldiers and horses on the land of Henan, and I can talk to every soldier." Shen Liangru suddenly stood up to support Gao Yuanjue at this time.

He could tell that Gao Yuanjue was a passionate young man, and he very much agreed with Confucianism, and he was a defender of order.

Shen Liangru felt that perhaps one day Gao Yuanjue would grow up to be a pillar of the country, so he was very polite when speaking.

"Okay, since Mr. Shen said so, I will listen to you." Seeing that Shen Liangru insisted on Gao Yuanjue's participation in the conversation, Gao Jie reluctantly agreed.

It's just that Gao Jie still has his petty temper. When he sees his disobedient son, he always blows his beard and stares.

"Gao Jie, if you are a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, then you should prove it with your actual actions and your own achievements, and go to attack the city today. Kaifeng City is now an isolated island in the vast ocean, and it has been besieged by 10,000+ of you. Many days."

"Tell me why you still can't take it down. In short, you'd better organize a new round of attack as quickly as possible. The imperial court feeds so many soldiers in Kaifeng. How much pressure you bear? You know."

Now Shen Liangru only wanted Gao Jie to attack the city, but he couldn't take Kaifeng. No matter how good their attitude was, no matter how nice their words were, it was useless.

"Father, let me lead my troops to attack the city. I will definitely be able to take Kaifeng City down." Gao Yuanjue thinks this is a good opportunity. body.

"No, you're a child, how did you manage to fight?" Gao Jie disagreed.

Gao Yuanjue is his eldest son, he will inherit his official position in the future, and the whole family will be handed over to him in the future.

If Gao Yuanjue made any mistake on the battlefield, Gao Jie would regret it for the rest of his life.

"Father, I'm not a child anymore. I'm already 20 years old. I'm skilled at arching horses and martial arts. If I use knives and guns, I can beat four or five men. Those robbers on the top of the city are not enough for me to kill one round." .”

Gao Yuanjue is very confident in his martial arts, and he is also very enthusiastic about fighting. It can be seen that he must have rarely participated in battles before. After all, he is Gao Jie's eldest son, and he probably entered the army for melee combat.

"Okay, little general is really ambitious, then I will appoint you as the vanguard officer of Nancheng, and lead the Gaojie army with five thousand infantry to attack the city." At this time, Shi Kefa suddenly walked in.

"Supervisor." Seeing Shi Kefa approaching, Gao Jie hurriedly bowed his hands.

Facing Shen Liangru, he could argue with reason, but Shi Kefa was different. Shi Kefa was a scholar of the Diange University, a governor of Yangzhou, and Gao Jie, the nominal commander of their four towns.

"Shi Ge Department." Seeing Shi Kefa coming, Shen Liangru quickly cupped his hands and saluted.

Shi Kefa was a well-known literati a long time ago, and he was an official and the second assistant to the cabinet. Shen Liangru naturally respected him very much.

"Your Majesty is eager to attack the city, and it just so happens that the Fujun envoy is also here, so let's start a new round of offensive today." Shi Kefa said to everyone.

He has already figured it out, taking Kaifeng is of great significance, advancing can threaten Li Chuang in Guanzhong, retreating can guard the land south of the Yellow River, and resist Chiqing's iron cavalry here.

But in any case, for Zhu Cihong, and for the Ming court, it was better than huddling in the south of the Yangtze River and waiting to die. In Jinling, there is only one natural barrier of the Yangtze River that can be used as a barrier.
