Chapter 119 War Horse
Worried about being attacked by Yuwentai on the way home, Gao Cheng temporarily stationed in Hongnong, waiting for Hu Luguang, Murong Shaozong, and Gao Jishi's leading infantry to respond.

During the period, in addition to sending cavalry to gather the rout, they also sent messengers many times to tell Hu Luguang and others to be careful.

On May [-]th, after gathering three or four thousand defeated soldiers, Gao Cheng joined forces with Hu Luguang and others in Hongnong.

With their guards, they set off with confidence and returned to Luoyang with Dou Tai.

Regarding the ambush that took place near Tongguan, the Eastern and Western Weis each had their own explanations.

The Western Wei Dynasty played up Yuwentai's six thousand light cavalry to defeat Gaocheng Dou Tai's [-] coalition army, and captured more than [-] people, as if the whole battle had nothing to do with the Tongguan infantry who killed Dou Tai's siege troops.

what!Exaggerating the results?Did Dou Tai bring 4000 copies to the south?Is there a [-]-strong Gyeonggi Legion under Gao Cheng's command?Isn't that the [-] coalition army?

After Gao Huan knew the specific situation of the battle, under his instruction, the Eastern Wei Dynasty focused on showing that Gao Cheng predicted the enemy first. Anticipating that Dou Tai would be in trouble, he led 480 light cavalry to attack [-] miles in two days, and defeated the enemy with [-] tired troops. Yu Wentai's tens of thousands of cavalry drove Yu Wentai back to Tongguan. As for the specific battle loss ratio, he ignored it.

Judging from the two parties' respective statements about the battle of Tongguan, it seems that there is no loser in this battle, which can be called a win-win situation, but only they themselves know what is true.

In this battle of Tongguan, Yuwentai is undoubtedly the real winner. A big victory has proved his ability to the people of Kansai, breaking the undefeated record of the Gao clan and Bingzhouhu, and he will be able to return to the East when Zhu Hunyuan returns. Against the background, it effectively soothed people's hearts.

But it was hard for him to win. If he hadn't been bluffed by Gao Cheng, and instead led his army to the back of the mountain to find out, maybe Gao Huan's good son's life would be in his own hands.

But who would have thought that Gao Cheng used [-] cavalry to surround [-] cavalry, but it was just a bluff, and he didn't want to hold him back at all, and cooperate with the army that came from behind the mountain to wipe him out.

From Gao Huan's point of view, Dou Tai is safe and sound, Gao Cheng is trying his best to turn the tide, and having an excellent heir will boost people's hearts even more than Yu Wentai's victory in a battle.

And the loss of more than 1 people is really acceptable to Gao Huan, who has a big family and a big business.

After a short rest in Luoyang, Gao Cheng and Dou Tai went north to Jinyang together.

Crying children have milk, and now Gao Cheng has almost no organized cavalry troops, mainly because a large number of war horses have been abandoned.

The purpose of going north is naturally to reorganize a larger cavalry for himself based on the credit for rescuing Dou Tai.

On the ninth day of June, when Gao Cheng arrived in Jinyang, Gao Huan went out of the city to meet him for the first time.

"Father!"

Gao Cheng didn't wait for the donkey cart to approach, so he stopped the driver and trotted all the way to salute Gao Huan.

Gao Huan didn't look at him, passed Gao Cheng, and walked straight to Dou Tai in the distance.

Dou Tai got off his horse, knelt down and pleaded guilty:

"Tai underestimated the enemy and rushed forward, resulting in the loss of soldiers and generals. Please punish him, Your Majesty."

Gao Huan helped Dou Tai up, glanced at Dou Tai, and after confirming that he was not injured, he blamed:

"How stupid Ning Shi is, victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs, how could he abandon me just because of a momentary frustration!"

He patted Dou Tai on the shoulder again and said comfortingly:
"Just come back, just come back!"

Dou Tai was really ashamed.

Gao Huan waved his hand to call Gao Cheng who was ignored by him.

"Ah Hui, if it wasn't for you in this battle, how could I see Ning Shi again as a father."

As he said that, he actually bowed solemnly to Gao Cheng.

"Father can't!"

Gao Cheng didn't dare to accept it no matter what, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground.

"Your Majesty!"

And Dou Tai couldn't cry when he saw this scene.

This made Gao Cheng, who is also an acting school, have to admire. Lao Gao played the scene of father worshiping son for Dou Tai really beautifully.

Everyone followed Gao Huan into the city, and the Bohai Palace set up a banquet early, and all the generals in Jinyang attended.

Compared with the past, there are fewer familiar faces. Yuan Cong, who was the governor of Jinzhou when Gao Huan was appointed, was sent out of the town.

For example, Wei Jing served as governor of Jizhou, Gao Huan followed Du Luozhou to assassinate Du Luozhou, Cai Jun from Guangning replaced Hou Jing as governor of Jeju, Pan Le from Guangning served as governor of Dongyongzhou, Mo Duolou from Da'an served as governor of Jinzhou, and Han Zhihui's elder brother Han Gui served as the governor of Taizhou, Xue Guyan served as the governor of Xianzhou, Peng Le from Anding served as the governor of Sizhou, and so on.

In the eighty prefectures of Kanto, most of them are members of Gao's party members.

This also marks that Gao Huan has finally completed control of the place after two years of swallowing the Kanto.

There are also many new faces, among them Ke Zhu Hunyuan who triggered the Battle of Tongguan and finally returned east smoothly.

For Ke Zhu Hunyuan, Gao Huan bestowed titles on county magistrates, paid homage to chariots and riding generals, and rewarded slaves with fields and houses. He also made the four brothers of Ke Zhu Hun in Jinyang the titles of official titles, and even bestowed titles on Ke Zhu Hun Yuan's generals. Jue Yi.

However, the long-promised post of governor of Bingzhou was not granted.

But Zhu Hunyuan's expression was calm, and he didn't seem to be dissatisfied. After all, Gao Huan had given enough compensation.

As one of the protagonists of this banquet, Gao Cheng drank with the Jinyang generals who came to congratulate him one by one. When Zhu Hunyuan approached, Gao Cheng poured a cup for him, raised his glass and said:
"However, Duke Zhu Hun's heart is attached to the imperial court, and he is not afraid of hardships and dangers. He returned from the east after thousands of miles. This is an act of righteousness. After Cheng Cheng heard about it, he had long wanted to get close to him. Today, I finally see you. Please drink a cup and don't refuse."

But Zhu Hunyuan quickly took the wine glass and said with a smile:
"The last general in Kansai is the one who has heard the name of the prince for a long time."

As he spoke, he began to count Gao Cheng's achievements in the past.

The two flattered each other, but they also left a good impression.

After the banquet was over, the generals took their leave, and Gao Cheng followed Gao Huan to the wing to discuss matters.

"The lack of a war horse is straightforward, so why put on an air in front of my father."

As soon as he was seated, Gao Huan, who smelled of alcohol, stared and said.

Well aware of the reason that crying children deserve milk, Gao Cheng purposely rode in a donkey cart on this trip, accompanied by five hundred guards, either riding mules or donkeys.

In the Battle of Tongguan, the war horses were greatly worn out, but Luoyang would not fail to gather [-] horses. This arrangement was to highlight a problem: I was short of horses.

Gao Cheng scratched his head, laughed and said:

"This little thought can't be hidden from my father."

"Tell me how much you want."

Gao Huan said casually.

Gao Cheng took the opportunity and the lion opened his mouth:
"I ask my father to allocate [-] war horses for me."

Gao Huan was also straightforward, with two simple words:
"No!"

And slowly spit out a number:
"Five thousand."

Gao Cheng is in a hurry, everyone else is just wiping away a change, so don't just keep a change.

"Father is far away in Jinyang, and the affairs of Henan are too far away. If there is an emergency, my son can no longer let the soldiers run alone, and please give me permission from my father."

Gao Huan caressed for a moment, then said:
"Ten thousand horses, no more."

This is asking for a lot of money, and I don't really think that it is such a luxury that one person can ride three times. That is the treatment that Dou Tai rushes to Xiurongchuan.

Gao Cheng immediately thanked him, and made another request like Gao Huan:
"Baby hopes to reset the horse policy."

 There are still 8 words left, I will finish writing before I go to bed, I would like to apologize to everyone for the update problem, because I recently signed up for the pre-examination surprise class, and I am preparing for the exam on August 26, and I have been studying questions during the day. In the past few days, I have really only been able to code at night.

  It’s really not that I don’t work hard. You can see my book friends who are still replying to remind me at 02:30 in the morning, but I really focus on this. I always doze off while writing. I count two chapters in a row. If you make a mistake, you will lose your head in a hurry, and it will be very torturous.

  I'll adjust asap.

  Thanks to the book friends Lao Maoshu and Ruo Xun for their rewards.
