In the commander's tent of the camp, all the generals gathered together, including Li Guangbi, Xian Yu Zhongtong, and even Ge Shuhan, who was bedridden and unable to move, was carried by the guards.

There are two guests in the commander's tent. They are the prince's envoys Du Hongjian and Li Fuguo who have been in the Anxi Army Camp for many days.

Even if they don't take away the military power of the Anxi Army, they still have to stay in the camp and keep an eye on Gu Qing to at least ensure Gu Qing's loyalty to the court.

A long-lost person came to the handsome tent today, Bian Lingcheng.

Usually, Bian Lingcheng would not be present when Gu Qing gathered his generals. Gu Qing held military power very tightly, was strict in running the army, and had a stronger personality. After several overt or covert conflicts with Gu Qing, Bian Lingcheng gradually understood

Seeing that Gu Qing could not let him take command, Bian Lingcheng had no choice but to give up and temporarily lay dormant in the Anxi Army, waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.

Gu Qing did not expect that Bian Lingcheng would come today, so he took a special look at him. Bian Lingcheng smiled and saluted Gu Qing respectfully, and his words and deeds were normal.

Gu Qing also smiled and nodded towards Bian Lingcheng as a return gift.

After entering the commander's tent, the generals stood up and saluted, but Gu Qing quickly walked to Ge Shuhan's soft chair, bowed and held his hand, and said gently: "I apologize, Commander Ge Shu, I have been busy with military affairs recently and I really have no time."

I have always remembered Ge Shujieshuai's condition. Every time the army was stationed in the city, I asked someone to find a reputable doctor in the city to treat Ge Shujieshuai. I saw that Ge Shujieshuai's complexion was much better than before.

, I guess the doctor’s prescription is pretty good.”

Ge Shuhan's condition has indeed improved a lot. After changing several prescriptions, I don't know which medicine is right. Ge Shuhan's complexion is much rosier now, but his body is still paralyzed and unable to move, but he can speak vaguely.

.

"Gu Jieshuai... march north, march north, recover... Guanzhong." Ge Shuhan said vaguely.

Gu Qing nodded: "Today we will discuss the northward advance with the generals. Don't be anxious, Commander Ge Shujie. The Anxi Army is ready to shift from defense to attack and enter a strategic offensive."

A pleased smile appeared on Ge Shuhan's face, he grinned, and a string of drool flowed out of the corner of his mouth uncontrollably.

Qu Huan, the Hexi Army general behind him, quickly wiped away Ge Shuhan's saliva.

After Gu Qing greeted Xianyu Zhongtong and Li Guangbi, he sat down on the main seat in the commander's tent. He first slowly glanced around the generals and said, "You must have heard the news from Chang'an City, right?"

All the generals said in unison: "I heard that the traitor An Lushan is dead."

Gu Qing snorted and said: "An Lushan is dead, but the rebels are still there. They still occupy Guanzhong and Hebei. Now the new master of the Puppet Yan is An Lushan's son An Qingxu. This person is not to be feared. We must

The person we should be careful about is another person, An Lushan’s first general, Shi Siming. This person has already taken control of the rebels’ military power, which means that he is our real enemy to suppress the rebellion next.”

All the generals clasped their fists and said, "Please give me the order, sir."

Gu Qing smiled: "I know you are all eager to regain Guanzhong and Chang'an, but things must be done step by step. At present, compared with the rebels' military strength, the rebels are still superior to us, so we must be cautious when advancing northward and would rather delay

Fighters cannot take risks."

Li Siye said solemnly: "My lord, Liu Hongbo gave the last general eight hundred Mo swordsmen yesterday. The last general gave it a try. Although he has only practiced for a few months, he can still use it easily. After a few more battles, he will become more sensible."

There are now more than 2,500 people in the Dao camp, which is not much worse than before. The last general is willing to petition for a battle and use the Mo Dao camp as the vanguard to advance northward before the main army."

Gu Qing shook his head: "That's not what Mo Dao Camp is for. Shut up. It's not time for you to show off your power."

Li Siye stepped back sarcastically. Shen Tian glanced at him sideways and sneered: "Are you in trouble? No matter how fierce Mo Dao camp is, with only two thousand people, what can it withstand? Do you really think it is invincible?"

Li Siye was furious: "Shen, do you dare to have a one-on-one practice with Li? I'll teach you whether Mo Daoying is invincible."

Shen Tian sneered and said: "Practice alone, practice alone, Li Siye, you only have a handful of strength left. Within a hundred rounds, Shen will teach you how to behave."

Everyone in the handsome tent was silent and stared at the two people arguing. Gu Qing smiled and crossed his arms across his chest. He was not anxious or angry, and allowed the two people to argue more and more fiercely.

The normal atmosphere in the handsome tent is to be noisy and blow your brains out. Being harmonious is not conducive to cultivating the wolf temperament of the team. Gu Qing is happy to see this. Anyway, no matter who loses or wins in the end, they will be punished by running in circles and running to death.

This is when Sun Jiushi escaped without mercy. After the Battle of Yingshui, Sun Jiushi was originally dismissed from the post of captain of the Shenshe Battalion. Later, Gu Qing led the army to rescue Huangfu Sisi and Princess Wanchun. The Shenshe Battalion was Under the leadership of Sun Jiushi, he showed his face to Gu Qing once. Sun Jiushi took advantage of the situation and resumed his post, but now he still follows Chang Zhong to learn the art of war.

Seeing the two of them competing to show off their power, they both said that the soldiers under his command were the best in the Anxi Army. Sun Jiushi was unconvinced and stood up and said: "Don't argue. When it comes to the elites of the Anxi Army, except for our Shenshe Battalion, Who dares to claim the title of No. 1? Everyone can see the results of the Marksman Battalion starting from the Battle of Yingshui..."

Before he finished speaking, Sun Jiushi was staggered by a slap from Chang Zhong. Chang Zhong scolded him fiercely: "You don't know how to live or die, do you know how much you weigh? You learned the art of war from me like a fool, and I do it every day." It's like teaching a pig, do you know how uncomfortable I am? Now you have the nerve to show off?"

Sun Jiushi turned pale after being scolded by Chang Zhong. The more he scolded, the lower his head lowered. Amidst the laughter of the generals, Sun Jiushi retracted his head and did not dare to say any more.

Some of the generals of the Anxi Army were noisy and some were laughing, but outsiders felt a little uncomfortable.

Du Hongjian and Li Fuguo finally had a new understanding of the rough style of the army. They had never seen the generals of the army being so vulgar when quarreling. The smell of gunpowder was so strong in the commander's tent that they almost didn't draw their swords.

Xianyu Zhongtong was also a little unnatural. He twisted his body, leaned into Gu Qing's ear and said hesitantly: "Nephew Gu Xian, this...don't you try to persuade them?"

Gu Qing smiled and said: "Of course I won't dissuade them. Let them die. This is the way the Anxi army has always been. They will never dissuade them from a quarrel."

"What if they take action or even draw a knife..."

"That would be more to my liking. The name Tiger and Wolf Master cannot be called in vain. With these tiger and wolf generals, the officers and men under his command are the Tiger and Wolf Master."

Xianyu Zhongtong said dryly: "This... you won't stop this? Should we just let them continue to quarrel?"

Gu Qing said sternly: "Of course, whether it's a quarrel or a fight, you can't give up halfway. Only when you let them have enough fun will I be able to handle them easily."

"What to do with them?"

Gu Qing said calmly: "Oh, it's nothing actually. The army has military laws. The two people who quarreled will be punished with twenty military sticks. The one who interrupted in the middle and joined in the fun will be punished with ten military sticks. There are also those who are making noises and laughing next to them, each of them will be punished with five military sticks.

Take note of the military stick and remove it immediately after the beating. They are rough-skinned and thick-flesh, so they cannot be beaten to death."

As soon as he finished speaking, the noisy quarrels in the handsome tent fell silent for an instant, and all the generals stared blankly at Gu Qing.

Gu Qing encouraged with a smile on his face: "Keep playing music, keep dancing, can't we quarrel after fighting for a lifetime?"

No one dared to say anything, and all the generals were as silent as cicadas and bowed their heads.

The two parties involved in the quarrel, Li Siye and Shen Tian, ​​were frightened and hurriedly bowed and clasped their fists: "Master, I am finally wrong."

Gu Qing said sternly: "How could you be wrong? I like to watch quarrels the most. If you continue to quarrel, it's been a long time since I've seen the excitement. It also opened my eyes."

Li Siye and Shen Tian sweated like raindrops and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, the general has really realized his mistake."

Gu Qing picked out his ears with his little finger and said: "Since I know I was wrong, I won't embarrass you. If you two have a good time arguing, you can go and lead the army sticks after the accounts are over. Each person will have twenty marks... The battle is ahead, twenty marks.

I guess you can’t stand it. I’m going to take five notes every day and make up for it on the march. Do you have any opinions?”

"No objection, the last general will accept the punishment." Li Siye and Shen Tian saluted dejectedly.

Gu Qing looked around at the generals again and said with a smile: "Those who interrupted, those who made noises, and those who laughed will all lead the army sticks according to the number I told them. Anyone who is dissatisfied can stand up now."

No one stood up, and every general lowered his head and did not dare to look directly at Gu Qing, looking guilty.

Du Hongjian and Li Fuguo, who were sitting in the corner of the commander's tent, glanced at each other quickly, each looking a little desperate.

Just from this small incident, we can see Gu Qing's prestige in the Anxi Army. He is really true to his words, and he is deeply supported by all the generals in the Anxi Army. He is obviously just a weak scholar, but he has subdued a group of fierce killers.

.

If His Highness the Crown Prince wants to seize the military power of the Anxi Army, it is not enough to simply replace Gu Qing. The generals of the Anxi Army only have Gu Qing in their eyes. There is no emperor and no prince. If he wants to take the Anxi Army for his own use, he must replace the Anxi Army from above.

All generals will be replaced next time.

Replacing them all may not work. I believe that ordinary sergeants are just like these generals. They only have eyes for Gu Qing and don't know about the imperial court.

Du Hongjian and Li Fuguo became more and more certain that this elite tiger and wolf army might not have a chance with the prince. To be precise, this army was completely surnamed Gu.

Seeing that the generals were quiet, Gu Qing said slowly: "The accounts will be dismissed later. Each general will perform his duties and return to the camp for the generals to clean up. The rear army will count the remaining grain, grass and weapons, and feed the horses. Tomorrow morning, the whole army will

Set off to the north, cross the Han River, and head towards Shangzhou first."

Chang Zhong couldn't help but ask: "My lord, Shangzhou is now in the hands of the rebels. Are you going to send scouts in advance to find out whether the city of Shangzhou is real or not?"

Gu Qing hummed and said: "Of course we have to find out the reality. I estimate that there are not many troops stationed in Shangzhou and they can be easily defeated. After regaining Shangzhou, our next step is... Tongguan."

Speaking of the word Tongguan, there was silence in the handsome tent again. Then the generals came back to their senses and suddenly became excited. Brother Shuhan, who was paralyzed on the soft chair, showed excitement, and his hands, which were obviously unconscious, clenched into fists.

His face turned red and he made a meaningless "ho ho" sound from his mouth.
