Ge Congzhou sat on the back of a tall horse, crawling with Huo Yanwei and Chunyu Yan, who were kneeling on the ground. Whether it was the soldiers who left the city to greet them or the soldiers who returned to the army, they were silent for a moment.

Beside Ge Congzhou, He Gui on the right looked at him squintly. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, but seemed to have a smile, as if he was watching a show; while Xie Yanzhang on the left saw Huo Yanwei and Chunyu Yan lying on the ground and actively asked for punishment, he frowned slightly. Just when he was about to plead for the two of them, he saw his adoptive father wavering his hand, indicating that there was no need to say much.

Ge Congzhou immediately turned over and got off the horse, walked straight forward, suddenly stretched out his arms to lift Huo Yanwei, Chunyu Yan up, and said:

"Stand up and talk, I also heard that you were entrusted with your responsibilities. In the end, you could not resist and almost fell into the city... Zhou Dewei was indeed one of the best generals among the Jin people, so I still have to deal with it carefully.

Before, the Jin people took advantage of the emptiness of our Yangwu Army and sent heavy troops to siege Mingzhou. Zhou Dewei led the Han army and several groups of partial troops to join forces with 60,000 troops, and your command was only 20,000 troops. In this way, the city wall was captured and the Jin army took Mingzhou was not because you were afraid of war and dereliction of duty..."

While talking, Ge Congzhou turned his head, stared at Huo Yanwei, and said loudly:

"So this time, I will not cure your sins. As a general, you should know your shame before you will be brave. And you should also keep this humiliation of defeat and land. Since the war between our court and the Jin people has begun, there will be a fight in the future. At that time, I will see if you can calculate the old accounts clearly, including the capital and the interests..."

After hearing this in a daze, Huo Yanwei looked at Chunyu Yan and immediately kowtowed again and received the order with a loud bang.

Then there was Fu Yanchao and Wang Jingren who came to greet him. When Ge Congzhou saw him, his expression was slower and he immediately took the initiative to meet him. After all, he often fought side by side with Fu Cunshen. Now that he saw his sons, he still came to see him as the chief general of reinforcements. Ge Congzhou naturally became close to him kindly. He asked Fu Cunshen, Wang Yanzhang and other comrades in Bianjing. He also called Xie Yanzhang and told him and Fu Yanchao, the two young men in the army, to take care of each other more in the future.

However, when Wang Jingren stepped forward to talk to Ge Congzhou, he looked ashamed and bowed his head to confess his guilt:

"It was all because of the poor supervision of the army and the defeat at Heixiong Ridge, which led to the Jin general Li Shaoqiong invading the governor of Ge Jie Shuai's vassal town. After that, although he fought several times, the Jin thieves were too evil, which made the people of Xingzhou feel ashamed and had no face to meet Ge Jie Shuai..."

Regardless of the outcome, Wang Jingren was ordered to send troops to support Yangwu Army immediately. Therefore, after hearing this, Ge Congzhou immediately spoke and comforted him:

"Wang Du Zhixiu said this: the military situation is unpredictable, and victory or defeat is indeed common among military strategists. Moreover, it is because we and the general of the Jin army, Zhou Dewei, restrain each other in Shahe City, which caused another enemy to commit abuse under our Xingzhou. How can this be said to be the fault of the Wang Du Zhi?"

However, as he was talking, Ge Congzhou suddenly paused, and his eyes gradually became sharp, as if it was a sword about to be unsheathed:

"Zhou Dewei is indeed a commanding and courageous man, so he must not underestimate this person. Not only will our Yangwu Army regain the lost territory in Mingzhou, when the time is ripe, our dynasty will also gather various armies in the future to compete with the Jin army. And then Zhou Dewei will definitely be a strong enemy of our army by then...

However, even if they are their own masters and are hostile to each other, Ge still respects him as a general. As for Li Shaoqiong, the dog thief... Ge remembers that sooner or later, he will have to abandon this disaster!"

Originally, Ge Congzhou had three brothers, Zhang Guiba, Zhang Guihou, and Zhang Guibian, and Huo Cun and five others joined the rebel army in Huang Chao, and then was appreciated and recruited by Li Tianqu. Today, Huo Cun died in battle in his early years; Zhang Guiba died of illness a few days ago; Zhang Guibian was a court official in Bianjing and served as a civil servant; and Zhang Guihou, who used to be on the front line of the killing formation, now takes over the Xu Si army, and has not been on the battlefield for a while... The old guy died and the old man was old, which also made Ge Congzhou feel that he was old.

After being named the governor of the Yangwu Army, Ge Congzhou knew that his main responsibility was to curb the expansion of the Jin army in Hedong... However, after all, the two major forces of the Wei Dynasty and the Later Tang Dynasty were still in an alliance, so even if Ge Congzhou was in charge of various military and political affairs in Yangwu Town, he was not negligent compared to other generals of the Wei Dynasty's heroes, since he was in charge of Heshuo, where the situation was relatively stable at that time, he would inevitably have fewer opportunities to lead troops to fight in person.

Therefore, he missed the major wars such as the destruction of Liang State. Although Ge Congzhou learned that his lord and Jin lord Li Cunxu would have a battle, at that time, he still did not know the specific time when the two countries started the war... He was getting older, so Ge ​​Congzhou also focused on cultivating the rough jade in the next generation of military such as Xie Yanzhang. At the same time, he was also paying attention to the current situation and paying attention to the time when his forces would break up with the Jin army.

However, Ge Congzhou did not expect that as soon as the battle between the two major powers of the Wei Dynasty and the Later Tang Dynasty began, he was already angry.

It is true that Zhou Dewei was gathered to seize the Mingzhou under his command. However, the two armies were killed and attacked, and their territorial gains and losses were all based on their own abilities. They were not as good as others, and they were not even complained that they were robbed of their territory by the other party.

Ge Congzhou said that he was in charge of the main force of the vassal army at that time. After all, he was on the way back to the army and then took back his territory with his interests. He was happy to fight wits and courage with a group of famous generals represented by Zhou Dewei in the Later Tang army. We were each the main players and did not give in to each other on the battlefield, but for those who deserve respect, Ge Congzhou would treat the other party with courtesy.

After all, according to the official history line, Ge Congzhou was once stolen by Zhi general Liu Xiu and was eager to take back Yanzhou, but he was always at a loss. However, Ge Congzhou respected this opponent who had added stains to his life record, and repeatedly wrote letters to recommend it strongly and pleaded for Liu Xiu... So even if we meet on the battlefield, the war is critical, and we must not be vague about the enemy who should be captured and killed, but Ge Congzhou would appreciate the opponent he values ​​and show his respect.

However, after entering Xingzhou, Li Shaoqiong, the general of the Later Tang army, burned, killed and looted along the way, causing ruins and ruins in the counties and yards under the central government of his own vassal states... The evil deeds of soldiers and harming the people even at this time... However, the Jin army in Hedong was even more unscrupulous in the Yangwu Army. This was like a slap in the palm of his hand and slapped Ge Congzhou loudly in the face.

How could Ge Congzhou's current status in the Wei Dynasty army and the name he made himself swallowed after being so provoked? Naturally, he was already in a real fire. Because the robes of the past died one after another, the feeling of growing older in his heart was already thrown out of the sky.

He also talked with Fu Yanchao and Wang Jingren. Ge Congzhou immediately ordered the clerks of the vassal states to entertain these comrades who led troops to help Yangwu Army, and should not lose the etiquette they must do. However, although there was a warm smile on his face, he was thinking in his heart:

Of course, the war between the two countries is of great importance. When will the Jin army go to another battle, it will be determined by Your Majesty... But since the Yangwu army is adjacent to the Jin people and when the national war begins again, our Ya army will also be a pioneer... Since the Jin people underestimate me, Ge Congzhou... By then, I will not give up before sweeping Heshuo and Hedong areas and rushing into Taiyuan!
