    I forgot one question from the previous section (Part 1)

    ——————————

    Gao Xingzhou drew his sword and wanted to kill himself, but An Zhihu and Gao Huaide held him down. Gao Huaide said: "Dad, since Marshal Zhang can offer such generous conditions, he will definitely understand our painstaking efforts! Please leave your life behind."  , I’ll beg him again! Maybe there’s a way to get the best of both worlds!”

    An Zhihu also shouted: "Yes, General, I think the situation is not at the end yet, so it is better to negotiate again. If there is nothing we can do, it is not too late to make plans."

    The two of them tried to persuade Gao Xingzhou to stop. Gao Huaide gave An Zhihu a look and left the valley to find Yang Guangyuan. He dispelled his father and son's hidden worries and said, "We would like to return to the Tang Dynasty, but our family  In Luoyang, once we return to the Tang Dynasty, our family will be destroyed, can you give us some time?"

    Yang Guangyuan asked: "Is your father willing to return to the Tang Dynasty?"

    Gao Huaide said: "Yes, it's just that my grandmother is in Luo, and she would rather die than risk the lives of her family."

    Yang Guangyuan said: "Let's do this. You put down your weapons and go to Yan'an to launch water. I will report your situation to the marshal. I think the marshal will have arrangements. In addition, your White Horse Silver Spear Regiment has about a thousand cavalry and horses that have been captured by us.  Trapped in Baidao Mountain, they have been hopelessly trapped for a long time recently, and they seem to have plans to kill them all. If you don't want them to die in battle, it's best to find someone to advise them."

    As soon as Gao Huaide returned to the valley, An Zhihu said: "If we put down our weapons, wouldn't we become nothing more than nothing?"

    Gao Xingzhou asked Gao Huaide carefully about all the details of his meeting with Zhang Mai, and thought about it for a long time.  Then he made up his mind and said: "Zhang Longxiang's reputation has always been good. This time I think he really wants to subdue us. In this case, you might as well take a risk! Huaide, go and promise him. We will put down our weapons, all go out of the valley, and let them  Arrange it. Then Zhihu, you go to Baidao Mountain and recruit all the brothers. The Khitan has been defeated, and Shi Jingtang has lost the hearts of the people. The return of the world to the Tang Dynasty is just around the corner, and the children of Yan and Zhao should not make such unnecessary sacrifices."

    An Zhihu said: "What if they are trying to trick us out?"

    Gao Xingzhou said: "I have never heard that Zhang Longxiang has ever killed a surrendered army, so the worst plan is that they all become prisoners, and most of the brothers can still survive."

    The generals also felt that this was justified, so they put down their weapons.  After leaving the valley to accept the reorganization, Yang Guangyuan saw Gao Xingzhou and said with a smile: "Lao Gao, congratulations to you. The marshal favored your Qianliju. This time he returned to the Tang Dynasty. You are a blessing in disguise!" They were once together.  They are ministers in the palace, so they recognize each other.

    Gao Xingzhou shook his head and said: "The matter in Luoyang has not yet been decided, and my life and death are unknown. The lives of these two thousand brothers have been handed over to Brother Yang. As for us, father and son, we only want to be prisoners of the subordinates."

    Yang Guangyuan smiled.  Said: "You are still such a bad temper!"

    The White Horse Silver Spear Regiment has been out of food for several days in the valley. The men are tired and the horses are thin.  Yang Guangyuan gave them three thousand horses in exchange. Gao Xingzhou said: "Although our horses are weak, they have been following us for a long time. Although they are animals, they are like family members. I hope I can take them with me. I hope Brother Yang will understand."

    Yang Guangyuan said: "This is what the marshal specifically ordered in the letter. Lao Gao, please don't cause trouble to me. Besides, the marshal ordered these horses to be sent to good pastures for grazing. The herdsmen of Chilechuan will take care of them. You don't have to worry."  They have been wronged." In fact, if Yang Xin, Zhe Congshi and others had listened to Gao Xingzhou's request, they would probably have acted expeditiously. However, Yang Guangyuan was a surrendered general and was extremely concerned about Zhang Mai's wishes, so he carried out Zhang Mai's orders very well.  It is more thorough and mechanical than Anxi's old department.

    Gao Xingzhou had no choice but to follow the arrangements. Yang Guangyuan treated them well. He gave them horses, food, and guides, but still let Gao Xingzhou lead the men and horses by himself to the water in Yan'e - which is northwest of Yunzhou.  , an inland lake outside the Great Wall and east of Jinhe Mountain. The lake is vast and surrounded by beautiful water and grass, perfect for grazing.  It's just that this place is far away from Chilechuan and Yunzhou. It has been isolated from the world during this period, and it feels a bit like a paradise.

    After putting down their weapons, the two thousand white horse cavalry were all worried. It was only here that they felt a little relieved. If Tiance really wanted to trap him, he would not choose such a beautiful place.

    Yang Guangyuan escorted them here, and actually handed out weapons again, and ordered: "You can rest here. You can go out for horse racing or hunting and fishing. This place is only two days away from Yunzhou. You can stay here."  A team of cavalry is given to you. If something happens, you can send someone to Yunzhou to ask for orders. However, your own troops are not allowed to leave twenty miles away without an order. Lao Gao, the marshal arranged this and did not let us monitor you. That means you will  Treat them as if they have returned to deployment, you must take good care of your men, do not disobey orders, and do not let down the marshal's good intentions."

    Gao Xingzhou hurriedly saluted to the southwest and said: "Gao Xingzhou is not a ungrateful person. I don't care about my own life anymore. I only hope that these two thousand men canIf he continues, he will be able to have a career under Tiance in the future.  "

    Yang Guangyuan laughed and led the troops away, leaving only a group of soldiers, hundreds of herdsmen who were familiar with the nearby terrain, and two herds of cattle and sheep.

    The white horse cavalry had weapons and horses, and they were all confident. They thought that it would be very convenient to leave in this flat land, but the more it was like this, the less and less no one wanted to leave and escape.

    Gao Xingzhou ordered the camp to be set up. On the first day, he did not dare to act rashly and lived cautiously. On the second day, he sent his cavalry to graze and hunt nearby. In fact, he was to investigate the surrounding situation. As expected, he found that the Tang army of Tiance did not leave any surveillance personnel. Gao Xingzhou  Zhou sighed with emotion: "Zhang Longxiang is so courageous! If I change my place, I can't just let the White Horse and Silver Spear Regiment go."

    Yanke Xiashui is a large inland lake, surrounded by a plain with luxuriant water and grass. The Khitan once left an old pasture here. Cattle, sheep and horses can graze. There are also many prey in the middle of the grass. The white horses and silver spears are trapped in the valley.  It took many days to finally feel at ease. After Gao Xingzhou's instructions, there were people herding horses, herding sheep, hunting, and fishing. The days were not as colorful as they were in the Central Plains, but they were better than peace and tranquility, with a few good meals.  After eating, my strength gradually recovered.

    At this point, no one in the entire army is worried that Tiance will kill him, if he really wants to kill him.  I would not spend so much effort on such a nice place.

    It’s just that some generals are joking.  He said to Gao Xingzhou: "General, you don't think Marshal Zhang wants us to live here forever? Then we will become barbarians."

    Gao Xingzhou heyed. He knew in his heart that this was impossible. No matter what Zhang Mai's plan was, the two thousand people here were definitely only temporary.

    ——————————

    " Two days later, two riders came from the northeast. It turned out that the Yanke River was located on the road from Chilechuan to Linhuang Mansion. If there was any news from Linhuang Mansion.  After arriving at Baishuibo, you can either go south to Yunzhou and then west to the Great Wall. If you want to be faster, you can also take a straight line through the Yanlu River and enter the Chile River. Once the Yunzhong area is pacified in the future, a communication base will definitely be set up at the Yanai River.

    Those two cavalry were the official cavalry sent by Xue Fu to Chilechuan. They saw the camp of the White Horse and Silver Spear Regiment and went to camp to rest that night.  Directly regard this place as a stronghold along the way.

    Gao Huaide followed his father's order and entered the account to express condolences. He did not dare to inquire about their official affairs, but he learned from their mouths that the Ying Yang Army and the Sweat Blood Cavalry Regiment went south hand in hand and had now pacified most of the areas in the former Liao Kingdom on the Jingdao Road. They were now at the Great Wall.  Waiting outside, ready to go south at any time.

    Gao Huaide groaned and said, "Did you win the battle in Beijing?"

    News about Tiance’s victory in Linhuang Mansion.  There have always been "rumors" in northern Shanxi, but they have never been confirmed. The White Horse Silver Spear Regiment has been fighting in Chilechuan, and the channels for getting news are even narrower. They have not yet truly integrated into Tiance's banner.  Therefore, please report it as unshared.  Gao Huaide once entered northern Shanxi, but he only knew news about Youzhou.  I don’t know the details of the battle in Linhuang Mansion.

    The two messengers were even more surprised: "You don't know? How long has this happened!" Gao Huaide's reaction made the two messengers secretly suspicious, thinking that they had entered a den of thieves, and they couldn't sleep well that night. Fortunately, the next day Gao Huaide  Xingzhou sent them away without any hesitation.

    After the White Horse and Silver Spear Regiment heard the news of their great victory in Beijing, their mentality changed again.

    What a great victory in Beijing!

    That was the capital of the Liao people, and now it has been captured by Tiance. The Khitans, who were deeply feared by the warriors in the Central Plains, have been completely defeated. Then will the Tang army of Tiance be invincible in the future?

    They thought that Yang Yi and Xue Fu had gone south, and then thought that this place was not far from the Zhongjing Road, and they felt even more frightened. One of the generals muttered: "Fortunately, it was surrendered a few days ago. Otherwise, Zhang Longxiang would be in the south and Yang Ying would be in the north."  Yang, even if we are stones, we will be crushed into cakes.”

    Gao Xingzhou was not angry when he heard this. No matter how high he thought of himself, he would not think that he could defeat Zhang Mai and Yang Yi at the same time. He said leisurely: "No wonder, no wonder. Since the victory in Shangjing, if the Khitans are not dead,  If they die, the remnants will inevitably retreat to the northeast. With the upper capital destroyed and the middle capital lost, Yan Yun has no hope of staying. No wonder the Khitans are leaving in such a hurry. In the current situation, if Zhang Longxiang sends his troops south with the power of breaking the Liao, Du Chongwei will definitely be defeated.  No doubt! Yan Yun changed hands within ten months."

    Gao Huaide thought of the performance of Shi Jin's army in Yunzhou and sneered: "When I saw it, they probably didn't even need to fight!"

    Gao Xingzhou was slightly startled, then nodded and said, "Yes, there is probably no need to fight over there in Youzhou."

    This time Gao Huaide came back from northern Shanxi. In addition to bringing Zhang Mai's surrender, he also brought news about the people in Youzhou being robbed and Du Chongwei refusing to save them.

    His Gao family also settled in Youzhou, and there are many people in the five servers.Many relatives and friends are in the Youji area. After this catastrophe, I am afraid that most of these relatives and friends will be scattered and withered.  Almost all the members of the White Horse Silver Spear Regiment are from the Yanzhao area. Many of them are in a similar situation to the Gao family. Even a small number of them are originally from Youzhou. After hearing the news, they all gritted their teeth and hated it more than ever.  The people of Yunzhou are even worse!  They also hated the Khitans for their arrogance and viciousness, but they hated Du Chongwei's perverse behavior even more!  Before knowing this, there were actually a small number of people in the army who still missed their homeland. But after knowing this, almost everyone stopped thinking about the Shi Jin Dynasty.  Many people even vaguely revealed their expectations in their conversations: they hope that Tiance will take advantage of the victory and go south, attack directly to the Yellow River, and take over all of Hebei and Hedong!

    When Gao Xingzhou saw the military's morale, he sighed: "If God does evil, it can be forgiven, but if you do evil yourself, you will not live!"

    ——————————

    Two days later, people came one after another from the southwest. They were all acquaintances - but they were all captured by the White Horse and Silver Spear Regiment.  Two days later, another reorganized elite cavalry approached, but it was An Zhihu who went to Baidao Mountain and brought all the thousands of elite cavalry who were trapped there.

    How could Gao Xingzhou still not understand what Zhang Mai meant - that he wanted to unite the white horse with the silver spear.  Leave it completely to yourself!

    In the battle of Chilechuan, the White Horse and Silver Spear Regiment tried their best to get out of trouble.  Zhang Mai tried his best to trap the enemy, so there were not many casualties on the battlefield. On the tenth day when Gao Xingzhou arrived at the water, all the old members of the White Horse Silver Spear Regiment who had not died in the battle or fled had arrived. Gao Xingzhou saw  Most of the old troops gathered together, and suddenly their eyes shed tears, and they said to Gao Huaide: "The marshal treats me like this, I still have face. Why do you care about Luoyang's family? That's it, that's it! I can't take care of things at home, even if I can't take care of my filial piety,  Everything is just my fault, and when the world is finally settled, I will die again to thank my mother for her kindness."

    An Zhihu and others were also moved and shouted at the same time: "General!"

    Gao Huaide shouted: "Dad, don't be so depressed. I think we should build up our strength, and then ask for orders to clear the way for Tiance, and fight to the Yellow River and Luoyang in one go! If my grandmother and mother have not been killed yet, we will rescue them."  , if there is any problem, just take revenge on them!"

    All the soldiers said yes together.

    ——————————

    During this period, Zhang Mai once sent an order to change the name of Yanli Water to Daihai Lake, and asked Gao Xingzhou to organize a camp near Daihai while resting.  As a future communication and garrison base, Gao Xingzhou took the order.  Sure enough, the camp was reorganized and according to Zhang Mai's order, stones were laid by the lake to name it.

    Since then, people traveling to and from Daihai have become more and more frequent, and Tiance's internal information system has slowly been opened to the White Horse and Silver Spear Group. Gao Xingzhou also heard a lot of news about the Northeast and the Central Plains, and only then did he know that they were resting in Daihai.  During this period, many things happened in the Central Plains:

    The incident in Youzhou finally couldn’t be concealed and spread, and once it spread, it was an explosion all over the world!

    Cao Yuanzhong used Tiance's mature movable type printing to print hundreds of thousands of leaflets, printing out the whole story of the Youzhou incident in the most popular and concise language, and then smuggled them to various parts of the Central Plains.  Hebei to Hedong, from Hedong to Henan, from Henan to Shandong!  Hundreds of prefectures and counties were filled with leaflets about the Youzhou incident overnight!

    Not to mention the Guanzhong area. From the scholar class to the storyteller-turned-literary monk, they all angrily denounced the cold-blooded shamelessness of Shi Jin and his ministers!

    The common people were easily gullible and had no feelings for this dynasty that had been raising taxes not long after the founding of the country. At this time, they were even more cold-hearted towards the son-emperor Shi Jingtang. The scholar-bureaucrats were more cautious and naturally tried to verify the news after hearing the news. Hebei  The Shilins acted first. They were close to the water and had powerful energy. I don’t know how many people in the army were students of those Confucian scholars, and I don’t know how many soldiers were the children of those clans. Such a big event, even if the military wanted to block it  Not possible either.

    After many inquiries in Shilin, Hebei, the results obtained were even more chilling than the contents of the flyers!

    From Taizhou to Zhenzhou, from Zhenzhou to Jizhou, from Jizhou to Shenzhou, from Shenzhou to Cangzhou the entire Central Plains Shilin itself was extremely dissatisfied with Shi Jingtang. At this time, Cao Yuanzhong's actions were like lighting a haystack.  A fire was started, and then the whole of Hebei was burned into flames!

    After Hebei was burned, it was followed by Shandong, and then spread to the south of the Yangtze River. At the same time, Guanzhong was also burned eastward. The fire of public opinion spread from east to west to the central part. Soon Luoyang became an iron pot baking on the stove.  !

    Even if he is just a warrior, even if he is outside the Great Wall, Gao Xingzhou can still imagine Shi Jingtang's situation in Luoyang City!  I'm afraid I can't even describe it as feeling like sitting on pins and needles. It should be like stepping on a red-hot iron plate with bare feet.

      "This is what a thousand people would point out," Gao Huaide said: "I hope that the old thief will focus on this, and then he will have no time to take care of our family's affairs. Then grandma, mother and brother will have hope to escape  The day you were born.”

    I don’t know when Gao Huaide started calling Shi Jingtang an old thief.

    Gao Xingzhou let out a long sigh. His martial arts was about to be surpassed by his son, but after all, he thought more deeply than his son. He knew that under the current situation, Shi Jingtang's military strength was weak, he had lost the support of the people, and he was suffering from internal and external troubles.  "I'm afraid his future may not last long."

    Thinking of this, Gao Xingzhou began to pay attention to the news about Hebei, Hedong and Yanyun. Between Daihai Lake and Yunzhou, if the Qingqi relay was carried out, the message transmission could be completed overnight.  When he inquired, Yunzhou responded quickly and even sent a military counselor to answer his questions.

    Only then did Gao Xingzhou realize that Xue Fu had not taken any action on Zhongjing Road for the time being, but was only consolidating the results of the battle.  They didn't even reach the Great Wall, and Youzhou didn't seem to have "got" the news about the victory in Beijing.  Although there are various rumors, most of them have not been confirmed. Du Chongwei may have known the news, or he was hiding his ears. In short, he did not admit such "rumors", but only deployed his army to defend against Yang Xue in the north and Zhang Mai in the west.

    As for Yunzhou.  Zhang Mai also did not expand. He neither acknowledged nor denied the victory in Beijing, but continued to reorganize the army. From the military counselor, Gao Xingzhou learned that Zhang Mai was in Yunzhou after integrating various forces.  He also reduced a lot of redundant troops, sent them back to their fields, and gathered them into five groups:

    The middle army is centered on Modao Battle Ax Formation, led by Zhang Mai; Yang Guangyuan and Zhe Deku each lead 2,000 cavalry, 3,000 infantry and crossbowmen, and 5,000 auxiliary troops.  Stationed inside the city; Li Yiyin and Li Yixiu each led 3,000 cavalry and 5,000 auxiliary troops, stationed outside the city.  The rest of the troops were organized into city garrison, all under the control of Cao Yuanzhong.

    After Gao Xingzhou learned about this arrangement, he thought to himself: "The army is stationed in the city. Why do we need five thousand auxiliary troops for five thousand troops? At this time, we are planning to go out at any time. Cao Yuanzhong is the one who stays behind, and the five groups of troops are ready to go at any time."  We are about to launch an attack. What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for Xue Fu to go south?"

    By this time, he already knew that Yang Yi was injured and was recuperating in Dingliao City. The acting governor who went south this time was Xue Fu.

    ——————————

    At this time, a new order from Zhang Mai arrived, but he was ordered to rectify Dai's army and horses, break camp five days later, and go to Yunzhou to join forces.

    Gao Xingzhou's troops had fine white horses, which suffered some losses in the battle of Chilechuan. During his stay in Daihai, he selected strong men from other troops to supplement them, but he still could not make up the number of three thousand.  At that time, the ten battalions were established, and the titles of the generals of the battalion, team, and fire were also changed according to the military law of Tiance.  Zhang Mai did not order all this, but Gao Xingzhou integrated it on his own.

    At this time, after receiving the military order, they mobilized their troops and horses. In addition to the three thousand elites, there were also three thousand cavalry and three thousand auxiliary soldiers, a total of nine thousand people. After arranging the defense of Daihai, they headed towards Yunzhou  .

    Just after crossing the Great Wall, I suddenly saw thousands of white horses all over the mountains and plains. War horses are rare, and it is even more difficult to deliberately seek white war horses. Gao Xingzhou's regiment is known as the "White Horse Silver Spear Regiment", but in fact it only has a main force of 800 riders.  It is a white horse, and the rest are mostly variegated. As a cavalry member of the Central Plains regime, it is rare to have thousands of war horses. It is delusional to have all white horses in the combat troops. At this time, I saw white horses all over the mountains and plains.  It's like the grass is covered with white clouds, which makes the white horses and silver spears look dumbfounded.

    A captain of the Tang Army came forward with a smile and said: "General Gao, the marshal has an order, ordering me to send 4,000 white horses, 6,000 battle robes, flags and other items. Hand them over here. General, please sign for them."

    After saying that he was presenting a military affairs booklet, Gao Xingzhou forgot to take up the writing for a while. An Zhihu reminded him: "General!" Gao Xingzhou woke up and hurriedly signed the book. When he signed the name, he felt happy in his heart.  Knowing that this life will be handed over to Zhang Mai.

    Gao Huaide had already shouted, rushed into the group of horses, picked out the most beautiful white horse, and shouted: "Dad, I want this horse, I want this horse!" He got on the horse, and the horse accelerated quickly,  Sprint faster!  Even after taking a hundred steps, it only took a moment, and after turning around, he was in front of Gao Xingzhou in a moment. It seemed that the horse's divine steed was not inferior to the Tou Gu Dragon at all.

    The captain who handed over the military resources said: "Young Master Gao has a good eye. Purebred sweat horses are mostly red, chestnut, and black gold. White sweat horses are extremely rare. This horse is named Yunyi Fanyu. Among these three thousand white horses, this horse is the best."  !”

    Gao Huaide said happily: "Thisis this a sweaty horse?" Yun Yifanyu was already sweating slightly. Gao Huaide looked at the horse's shoulders and sure enough, his hands were dotted with bright red. Gao Xingzhou saw that his son was almost on the horse.  He became excited. Ever since he was a child, he had rarely seen him so excited.

    At this time, the captain ordered the general to surrender again.The military flag was presented. Tiance's Tang Army's logistical supplies were the best among other countries. Military uniforms and uniforms were uniformly woven on the assembly line, so they were highly recognizable on the battlefield and could boost morale.

    Gao Xingzhou waved his hand and shouted: "All the fine soldiers on white horses, please dismount and come forward! Receive the jersey!"

    He gave the order, and 2,823 elite members of the White Horse and Silver Spear Regiment stepped forward to receive their jerseys.

    Gao Xingzhou then ordered: "Remove armor! Change robes!"

    Nearly three thousand people took off their armor and changed their robes in public. Following Gao Xing and Zhou Ming'an Zhihu, they took over the battle flag from the captain. Then the three thousand people went off to choose their horses. Half an hour later, under the fierce sound of "The Sky"  Under the banner of "Cai White Horse", a brand new white horse cavalry force was born.

    It has to be said that three thousand elites rode on three thousand white horses.  Uniform jersey, uniform white.  At first glance, it looks like a snowy shadow!  You will feel a powerful psychological shock just by looking at it!

    The captain who came to deliver the war horses and robes was extremely impressed. The white horse cavalry themselves also had a great morale.

    ——————————

    After Gao Xingzhou changed his robes, he passed Jiaoshan Mountain again and saw Yunzhou City before dusk.

    After Zhang Minai was stationed in Yunzhou, his troops stationed in the city and set up three camps outside the city. Li Yiyin was stationed in the west camp, and Li Yixiu's troops were stationed in the south camp.  Yang Guangyuan was stationed in Dongda Camp, and a new Beida Camp was recently established. After Gao Xingzhou arrived, he was introduced to Beida Camp.

    After the troops were settled, Gao Xingzhou only brought An Zhihu and Gao Huaide into the city, preparing to see Zhang Mai, but he saw a teenage boy at the gate of the city.  Gao Xingzhou rubbed his eyes, almost thinking he was dazzled!

    Gao Huaide shouted loudly, rushed over on horseback, hugged the young man, and shouted: "Huailiang, Huailiang! Why are you here!"

    That young man was Gao Huailiang, the second son of Gao Xingzhou.  When he saw his father and brother, they were also jumping with excitement and shouted: "Dad! Brother! It's really you! Haha, they didn't lie to me! You're not dead!"

    "That's nonsense, how could we die!"

    Gao Huailiang's eyes suddenly turned red: "You don't know! Yunzhou was defeatedah, no. Soon after Yunzhou returned to the Tang Dynasty, news spread in Luoyang. It was said that Dad was trapped in Jinhe Mountain and no reinforcements arrived, so he committed suicide.  He was martyred for his country, and his head was said to be hanging on the top of Ping'an City. Some businessmen traveling between Chilechuan and Yunzhou saw it with their own eyes, and within two days, Your Majesty Oh, no, it was that Shi Jingtang, he  They sent me condolences and made me a hereditary general. My grandmother cried so hard that she hung herself two days later"

    Gao Xingzhou frowned, thinking that his wife was also the queen of the general family and had always been strong. She had already prepared the worst before going on the expedition. How could she hang herself?  Gao Huaide was already startled and shouted: "What!"

    Fortunately, Gao Huailiang quickly said: "Not dead, not dead!"

    Gao Huaide felt relieved, and Gao Huailiang added: "My mother was rescued by the maid. After the news came out, people from the palace also sent people to express condolences. Then two days later, one day at noon, my mother suddenly called me to the room.  I asked a stranger to help me disguise myself, and soon Grandma, Uncle Robert, and Aunt Xu all came, and then we followed the stranger and escaped through the back door, blending in with the crowd and leaving the city"

    When Gao Xingzhou heard this, his heart was enlightened, and Gao Huaide was not stupid either, and shouted: "I know, that stranger must have been sent by the marshal! I'm afraid the rumor that my father committed suicide by committing suicide was also spread by the marshal.  .”

    "Yes!" Gao Huailiang said: "I didn't know this until later."

    It turned out that as soon as Gao Huaide left Yunzhou that day, Zhang Mai sent people to sneak south to Luoyang, and at the same time spread the news that Gao Xingzhou committed suicide and died for his country. At that time, the Youzhou incident was just fermenting, but the Yunzhou incident had already spread, and Shi Jingtang was because of Yunzhou.  He was embarrassed by the incident and needed to set an example of loyalty to the emperor. Therefore, after hearing the news, he gave the Gao family a large reward after a little verification.  The Gao family seemed to have hostages in Luoyang. Shi Jingtang had been monitoring the Gao family. Hearing that Gao Xingzhou was dead, the surveillance was relaxed after the reward was awarded. Tiance's spy in Luoyang immediately lurked in, convinced Mrs. Gao, and staged another plot.  A scene of hanging, and then taking advantage of the loosening of surveillance, the three members of the Gao family and two of their closest servants were taken away from Luoyang.

    "After we left the city, we headed to Songshan Mountain. The uncle who took us away said that grandma was old and should not travel long distances, so he placed grandma and mother in a small temple in Songshan Mountain. He took me to Yunzhou."

    When Gao Xingzhou and Gao Huaide heard this, they both understood Zhang Mai's painstaking efforts. Although they had decided to return to Tang Dynasty, they had been worried about the safety of their families in the rear during their time in Daihai. Gao Xingzhou had even already  I prepared for the worst, but when I came to Yunzhou, I heard the good news that I would have no worries from now on.

      Gao Huaide, a young man, was just happy when he heard the news, but Gao Xingzhou hid his face and cried bitterly, shouting: "Gao Xingzhou introduced a slave general, how could he be so virtuous, and be loved by the marshal so wrongly!"

    He was in the north of Yunzhou. At this time, he knelt down to the south, first to worship his mother far away, and second to Zhang Mai in the city. As soon as he knelt down, Gao Huaide and Gao Huailiang were so panicked that they knelt down at the same time. After Gao Xing worshiped twice, he looked behind him.  The two sons said: "You two brothers, remember this! My Gao family is full of people, and life and happiness are all given by the marshal! From now on, wherever the marshal's flag is pointed, no one will spare his life! The family can be destroyed, and the clan can be destroyed.  , the Marshal’s order must not be violated!”
