Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

But the authenticity of this note, he couldn't tell with just a skull, so he could only ask, "Where did this note come from?"

Cheng Erniu said: "It was presented to me by our fifth group of cavalrymen. They said it was given to them by a disheveled girl with chains on her hands. By the way, that girl called herself Arsenic. She told us Some people say that as long as you say the word arsenic, adults will know who she is."

Arsenic?The wolf girl Arsenic arranged by Dongchang next to Duo Chiluo?

It was she who secretly sent this information, and Guo Ye was immediately convinced of the authenticity of the contents of this note.

Combining the content on the note, recall Duo Chiluo's deliberately low-key and calm during this period.

Guo Ye's thoughts suddenly brightened up.

The mystery in front of him was solved, and the clearer the situation became, the more nervous Guo Ye became.

Because as the arsenic reported, the reason why Duo Chiluo and Jiumozhi, the Tubo national teacher of Laoshizi, stood still was to wait for the [-] soldiers from Gaochang Kingdom to arrive and block their retreat, so that they and thousands of Xichuan The army has become their shackles.

Damn it, if they were really encircled, I and thousands of brothers Xichuan would really have to confess to being here in Golmud City.

This is a big deal!

Immediately, Guo Ye felt a bit of self-blame in his heart. He was so complacent before that he underestimated the people of the world too much.Capable people come forth in large numbers, and a mountain is higher than a mountain!

Guo Ye became restless, and waved his hand to signal Cheng Erniu to step back first, and then stood back on the tower alone, looking into the distance.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this matter was done badly, and slowly, I became uneasy.

He subconsciously tore up the note in his hand and crumpled it into a ball, huh~~

Raising his arms high, he threw the scraps of paper in his palm viciously, and the fine scraps of paper fluttered with the wind, scattered to the bottom of the tower.

Guo Ye looked at the pieces of paper that fell to the ground one by one, his heart gradually calmed down, and he began to weigh left and right.

If he withdraws from Golmud City rashly and retreats to Gaochang Kingdom, that means the plan will fail.

Moreover, Dongchang and Yu Wenqian, the women who staged a coup in Tuyuhun, haven't heard any good news so far, so they probably haven't succeeded yet.

Now that they have withdrawn from Golmud early, Duochiluo is bound to return to the frontier of Tuyuhun earlier. What will happen to Tuyuhun then?After spending so long planning and preparing in vain, the door is closed, and the success is on the verge of failure?

Not reconciled, Guo Ye is definitely not reconciled!

But now if he doesn't withdraw from Golmud City early, if he delays, he will really become the turtle in the urn of Duo Chiluo.

There was only one result. Thousands of Xichuan troops died in the Golmud city. I either died in battle or became a prisoner of others. As for Zhenniang who came with me...

I heard that women are often enjoyed by Tibetans as spoils of war.

"Do not!!!"

Guo Ye blurted out subconsciously: "You can't let Zhenniang get hurt, and you can't let the brothers of the Xichuan Army die here in vain. Besides, I haven't been in this colorful world yet. I have enjoyed enough in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. How can I lose my life so easily? ?”

Human nature is inherently fragile, especially at the juncture of life and death, it is even more fragile!

Guo Ye believes that he is not great enough to be like Wen Tianxiang who wrote "Confucius said to be benevolent, Meng said to take righteousness, only when righteousness is exhausted, so benevolence is the best." Such staunch and decisive poems.

However, in the current situation, it is impossible to retreat rashly, and it is impossible to defend without retreating. It is really difficult for Guo.

For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with himself.

contradiction,

Tangled,

hesitate,

Feeling uneasy, restless in mind, the whole person seems to be shirtless in the scorching summer under the high temperature of the day, with thousands of ants crawling on his body, which is extremely uncomfortable.

Chapter 583 Er Niu's Painful Decision

Not withdrawing, not withdrawing, it will be difficult for Guo Ye for a while, and I don't know how to choose.

Struggling and hesitating for a while, he still had no idea, so he had to go down to the tower to ponder, one person counts the short and the other three count the long, it is better to listen to their opinions on this matter.

Immediately he summoned a sergeant beside him and ordered: "Go, find a few people and tell Kang Bao, Pang Feihu, Tong Hu, Ruan Laosan, Cheng Erniu and other adults to come after dinner The guard's mansion discusses important matters with me."

The sergeant snorted, and just as he was about to leave, Guo Ye shouted again: "By the way, there is also Mr. Zhu Pengchun from the supply camp."

"Order!"

The sergeant hastily greeted several soldiers not far away, and relayed Guo Ye's order again and again.

After several soldiers left one after another to pass the order, Guo Ye went back to the mansion, and walked in the direction of the guard's mansion, which was temporarily the official residence, in a bored manner.

At this moment, the setting sun was setting, and the golden setting sun was spreading over his body, making his back as he walked away long and thin, and the evening wind sent him off, which had a somewhat bleak autumn wind.

After returning to the guard's mansion, Zhenniang prepared meals early.Seeing Guo Ye's return, like a little daughter-in-law waiting for her husband's return at home, she was full of joy and happily had dinner with Guo Ye.

A dinner was delicious and warm, which somewhat lifted Guo Ye's depressed mood.

After a chat after dinner, Pang Feihu, Kang Bao and others arrived as scheduled, Zhenniang obediently cleaned up the dining table, and Guo Ye led them to the hall of the general's mansion.

It wasn't until everyone was seated and Zhenniang brought tea and left the venue again that Guo Ye shared the difficulties he encountered with everyone.

Originally, this matter was a dilemma. In addition, Guo Ye's voice was a little low and his speech speed was a little slow. Everyone felt melancholy and sighed in unison.

In an instant, the entire hall fell into a dull and sluggish atmosphere, which made everyone present a little depressed.

Time passed with everyone exhaling and breathing, and the atmosphere became more and more scary. From the beginning to the end, no one stood up and came forward to take this idea for Guo Ye.

bang~

The timid and fearful Fatty Zhu accidentally dropped the lid on the tureen and dropped it on the ground, but fortunately it didn't break.

Although it wasn't broken into pieces, the untimely noise still alarmed everyone who was in deep thought, and all of them turned their attention to Fatty Zhu.

Fatty Zhu felt a little uncomfortable being watched by everyone, and he stood up awkwardly, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Look at what I'm doing, I have no idea, not even the slightest idea. It's really not possible, so, so..."

Fatty Zhu's voice became weaker and weaker, he looked at Guo Ye with a guilty conscience, and suggested: "My lord, it's really impossible, let's withdraw! Didn't Guan Jiujiu Guan Xiucai say it before? Knowing that it can't be done, it's really Unwise!"

At this time, Fatty Zhu also thought about his arch-rival Guan Xiucai.It seemed that he was really a little scared.

After saying this, Fatty Zhu immediately went back to his seat, lowered his head and kept putting his hands on his knees to wipe the sweat from his palms, without making a sound.

"Withdraw? Is it really unwise to do it knowing that it can't be done?"

Guo Ye murmured Fatty Zhu's words, but he didn't show his attitude, as if he was waiting for something.

"no!"

Kang Bao suddenly glared at Fatty Zhu, stood up and yelled, "Well, you Fatty Zhu, it's fine for you to be timid and afraid of death yourself, why do you still bring up Guan Xiucai as an issue?"
