Chapter 75 Love Field Battlefield
The fierce battle between the two armies was once the best place to heal and escape emotional trauma for Gao Chong, and the trance of the army was often the most difficult time. On the battlefield where blood was shed, Gao Chong was always fearless, but when deciding what he loved, Gao Chong had the same confusion and hesitation as others.
Lu Ti is two years older than Gao Chong. The distance between this age is in the middle, like an invisible wall, blocking two hesitant hearts.
In Gao Chong's heart, he always wanted to let go of Lu Ti, but he couldn't.
In the despair of being resisted by Lu Ti, Gao Chong met Musa who was passionate. This was a different feeling. She gave Gao Chong comfort, but this was not what Gao Chong really wanted.
What Gao Chong wanted was a pretty and dust-free face, a pair of eyes that were beating pure and uncontested.
Only Lu Ti will have that.
Time is like fine sand dripping from an hourglass. Unconsciously, from one grain, two grains, to a small pile, a lot of piles, and the longing for Lu Ti and the guilt for Musa also grew simultaneously in Gao Chong's heart.
Lu Ti and Musha are two completely different women. For Gao Chong, it is difficult to choose one and abandon the other, not to mention that there is a bride who is married to the court - Xiahou Yun, not to mention that Gao Chong already knows Da Qiao's true identity.
"You guys, hurry up and carry Ziyi into the house!" Gao Chong tried hard to press down on all kinds of thoughts in his heart. Now is not the time to think about the love between children, Taishici's injury is the most important thing.
The soldiers hugged each other and gently carried Taishi Ci into the best inn in Liyang. When everyone retreated, Gao Chong asked himself Lu Ti: "How is Ziyi's injury?"
Lu Ti just lowered his head and sorted out the bottles and jars in his luggage, and replied: "Master said that General Ziyi's arrow injury has penetrated deep into the inside. He must cut off his abdomen with a knife as soon as possible and scrape off the evil flesh before he can recover! If it is delayed for a long time, he is afraid that he will not get better."
"Then why didn't Master Ling rescue?" Gao Chong said in a hurry when he heard that Taishi Ci had only temporarily saved his life.
Lu Ti smiled bitterly and said, "You said that the art of eliminating evil is so simple, and he can't do it either. When he left, his master told me that there is only one person who can perform septum techniques in today's world?"
Gao Chong said strangely: "Who can't be cured by the skills of the teacher?"
Lu Ti said: "Otherwise, the way of medicine is complicated and complicated. With the knowledge of people, one cannot be combined. Although my teacher has obtained the Taoist Book, he traveled all year round to save the sleeping area and eliminated evil. The person my teacher said was Hua Tuo of Pei State. Apart from this person, there was no one to save General Ziyi!"
Seeing that Gao Chong was a little unbelievable, Lu Ti said again: "Hua Tuo, whose name is Yuanhua, is also familiar with several meridians. He is known as the two saints with Zhang Ji, a famous doctor in Nanyang. His book says: If the disease is in the intestines, he will be washed with the heart and cleansed, and the abdominal cream will be rubbed. It will be fine for four or five days, and it will not hurt. It will not be painful. It will be relieved in one month."
"I wonder where Hua Tuo is now?"
"Hua Tuo was studying in Xu Tu. When he was in the Jiangzuo area, the coach only needed to send someone to inquire and find out whereabouts." When talking about the word "shopping", Lu Ti's voice trembled a little.
The two of them were silent for a while, and after a while, Gao Chong said, "Thank you, Miss Lu!"
"What do you thank me?" Lu Ti's face flushed.
"If it weren't for you, Ziyi - Ziyi would be dead!" Gao Chong's face turned red and hesitated. He was calm and composed when facing Lu Ti, but when facing Lu Ti, he seemed to have lost his mind.
The blush on Lu Ti's face flashed, and she said coldly: "I saved General Ziyi, I don't want to hear from you!"
Gao Chong coughed lightly and plucked up the courage to yell: "I know, so I want to ask Miss Lu to stay!"
"What's the point of staying here? Why should I stay?" Lu Ti said with a faint expression.
Facing Lu Ti tightly wrapped herself up, Gao Chong felt a suffocation in his chest. Even though he had thousands of skills, he could not attack the protector set up by Lu Ti. Thinking of this, the pain in his heart intensified, his teeth were polished on the tip of his tongue, and the blood that broke out from the broken chu was poured out of the corner of his mouth.
Gao Chong said tragically: "Since the two are concerned about each other, why bother hurt each other? Since they are separated, they cannot give up their feelings, so why not treat each other well together!"
Lu Ti was stunned there, and after a long time, he turned around and threw a pair of clear eyes at Gao Chong. Gao Chong's words just revealed her thoughts, as if she was stripped of layers of disguise.
Lu Ti's face turned red and she said softly: "So you knew it long ago-."
Gao Chong sighed: "It was not until I saw you again that I was sure that my judgment was correct. Tier, we have missed it twice, and I don't want to miss the third time again."
Lu Ti's shoulders and arms trembled slightly, and two lines of clear tears fell down her cheeks. She cried and said, "I feel so bitter these days--."
Gao Chong walked forward, gently hugged Lu Ti's weak arms, wrapped her tightly with his wide body, and whispered: "The same is true for me. From now on, we will not hurt each other anymore, okay?"
Lu Ti nodded, a kind of happiness appeared in his eyes, and he cried and said with a smile: "I have occupied your heart, isn't it too greedy?"
Gao Chong smiled and said, "Ti'er, am I in your heart too? Wouldn't it be good to let us have each other like this? If you are still as serious as before, wouldn't I regret it for the rest of my life!"
Lu Ti lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry!"
Gao Chong gently picked up Lu Ti's pretty face, kissed him with a teardrop on his cheek, and said, "I should say I'm sorry, it's me, not you. I'm afraid of following me and giving you a grievance!"
Lu Ti shook her head, her eyes clear, and said, "Princess Musa is infatuated with you. For you, her home has been ruined. If you let her down, will I never end with you?"
Gao Chong smiled and said, "I know she is your good girl. With you two in my heart, even if I borrowed ten courages from me, I would not dare to do anything that would not be sorry to you!"
"To put it nicely, that girl Xiahou is still waiting for you in Yuzhang Mansion?" Lu Ti said.
Gao Chong's face turned red, Lu Ti's words hit his heart. If Xiahou Yun's affairs were clichés such as making arguments, it would be too false. If he remained silent, Lu Ti might misunderstand himself again.
Just when Gao Chong was in a dilemma, a thick voice outside the inn shouted: "Miss Lu, pampering the handsome man has a lasting hardship, because pampering the handsome man is already the pampering the handsome man of the people of Yuzhang. Don't blame him for marriage!"
Gao Chong and Lu Ti didn't expect anyone to eavesdrop outside, and the two of them turned red. Gao Chong strode out the door, but saw Lei Xu blocking the door and looking anxiously inside.
"Lei Xu, what are you doing here?" Gao Chong said shyly. It was unpleasant to be knocked out of his privacy with Lu Ti, even if this person is Lei Xu who is loyal to his duties and guards himself.
Lei Xu looked innocent and said, "It was Mei Gan who brought the latest news from Jiangdong. The military advisor and the military officer asked me to come--!"
When Gao Chong heard that Mei Gan had new news, he knew it was a big deal, so he could only glar at Lei Xu fiercely, so he couldn't blame him any more. Gao Chong went into the house and called Lu Ti, and followed Lei Xu to the conference hall.
On July 5, 2018, the third year of Jian'an, after several days of rain, God finally revealed a rare sunny sky. The 30,000 Gao Chong, who was stranded in Liyang, fell into a dilemma because the road to return was broken.
After rescuing Taishi Ci, another problem that Gao Chong faced was the direction of the next march.
For Gao Chong, who is in trouble, any rash impulse may lead to the destruction of nearly 30,000 soldiers. Gao Chong, who missed one, can no longer make any mistakes.
At this important meeting, almost all the important generals of Gao Chongjun, including Xu Shu, Liu Ye, Gan Ning, Zhu Huan, Mei Gan, Lei Xu, etc., participated. Everyone understood the situation they were facing now, and everyone knew the importance of the next strategy.
Lu Su, who was following the army, was also invited by Gao Chong to attend the audience. Although Lu Su had not yet expressed his intention to serve, as his predictions became more and more respectful to him as his predictions became more and more effective.
"People the commander, the army needs less than three days of food storage!" At the beginning of the meeting, He Qiong, who was in charge of the supply of food and grass, said with a sad face.
The army was deserted without food, and the army without food was not combat power. The loss of Wancheng cut off Gao Chong's only grain transport channel. The continuous rain in summer once helped Gao Chong to move north smoothly, but now it has become an obstacle to his westward advance. The rivers from Chaohu to the west intersect. If they could still find a way to pass in the middle of winter, it is now hot July, and the water levels of various rivers have risen, and the army can't find a way to travel west.
"I am willing to lead an army up the water road and capture Wancheng again!" Ding Fengying volunteered to fight, his young face full of pride.
Before Gao Chong's answer, Liu Ye, the army joined the army with a serious face, retorted: "Our army has many newly surrendered soldiers. At present, there is insufficient food in the army. If Chengyuan captures Wancheng, I am afraid that the soldiers in the army will be dispersed due to the shortage of food."
"Just cross the river directly from Hengjiangjin!" Lei Xu, who had been holding back his anger these days, shouted.
"Plum Gan, what's the situation on the other side?" Gao Chong asked.
Mei Gan bowed and said, "According to the latest information, Han Dang and Jiang Qin are guarding Hengjiangjin. In addition, Sun Jingjun is in Moling, with about 15,000 troops in two places."
"Hulin, how is the direction of Shicheng?" Gao Chong looked around and said again. With Taishi Ci's whereabouts, coupled with Lu Ti's confession, Gao Chong, who was hit hard, had some confidence, and a fiery passion burned again in his deep pupils.
"There has not been discovered in the Hulin area for the time being. However, because the ferry is too small, so many people can't pass by for a while!" Mei Gan reported.
Walking up the Hulin further upwards is the boundary of Wancheng. The last time Gao Chong sent troops to the north, he was in Pengze, and went down the Yangtze River and turned the road from Chaohu to Huai. Now that Li Shu cut off the upstream, Sun Ce blocked the fortress in Hengjiangjin, leaving Gao Chong with only the narrow road in Hulin.
If you walk through the Hulin, Gao Chong's 30,000 troops could not cross the river no matter what. Moreover, when Hulin went west and north, there were deep mountains and dense forests, and there were few places without people. The army accumulated here, and the food and grass were not supported, so they could only starve to death.
Compared with the way of advancing in the Northern Expedition, Gao Chong's army, which now added a large number of soldiers from both Huaihe Rivers, could no longer take a boat. It became Gao Chong's forced choice to cross the river from Liyang area on the road where Sun Ce crossed the south.
"Pampered by the commander, Sun Ce has deployed heavy troops in the Hengjiangjin area. Our army cannot cross the river unless it is forcibly attacked!" Zhu Huan is familiar with the terrain of Jiangdong. The severe battle situation made him unconsciously rub his hands.
"Our army is equipped with insufficient boats and oars, and most of the new soldiers are afraid of water. If they attack Hengjiangjin forcing each other, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties!" Liu Ye said.
During the fierce debate among the generals under his subordinates, Gao Chong's eyes stared sharply at everyone who spoke, and there was a kind of admiration and majesty in his eyes that was unwelcomeable.
Gao Chong looked around and saw Xu Shu standing beside him, thinking about something, suddenly browsing, and then asked: "Military advisor, what will he do next after Sun Ce occupied the stone seal mountain?"
This is the first time Gao Chong did not use the more intimate name "Yuan Zhi", a private name, but was called Xu Shu, which shows the importance of this meeting.
When Xu Shu heard Gao Chong ask himself, he, who had always been meticulous, certainly noticed the change in Gao Chong's title. He also understood the current situation of the entire army and the weight of every word he said. Gao Chong's expression reminded him of the time when he was desperate in Changsha City in the second year of Jian'an. Just like that, Gao Chong's body showed a rare tenacity and tenacity.
As long as this kind of aura is present, Gao Chong will never fall, Xu Shu firmly believes.
Xu Shu thought for a while, and faced the trusted look that Gao Chong cast, he advised: "Shu thought that according to Sun Ce's temperament, he would never stagnate for some small victory. I am worried that he would lead the main force westward in the next step, attack Yuzhang, Shangliao, Haihun, and wait for an opportunity to cut off the connection between Jingnan and Luling and our army. This will make it difficult for our army to take into account both the head and tail, and it will inevitably collapse quickly."
"Aren't he afraid that we will also make a plagiarism and take over his Jiangdong?" Zhu Huan retorted.
"Xu Mu said that, but with Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's ability, he would definitely not be afraid of this move. Han Dang and Jiang Qin's ten thousand soldiers were arranged in Hengjiangjin to block our army from crossing the river south." Xu Shu said.
Sun Ce did consider it very carefully when sending troops this time, and took the initiative in strategy and strategy. It was really difficult for Gao Chong to turn defeat into victory.
"Although the enemy is prepared, we still have to burn our boats!" Gao Chong's words were sonorous and powerful.
