Gong Yu smiled and said, "Are there still too many people?"
"If my estimation is correct, at this moment, Your Majesty is facing Zhu Yuanzhang's army of hundreds of thousands."
"Who will ultimately rule the world? We'll know the answer within two years."
"These ten thousand people, plus the one hundred thousand troops under Zhang Dingbian, plus your Majesty's expeditionary force, the total number is less than two hundred thousand."
"With such a small number of troops, it is still not easy to compete with Zhu Yuanzhang."
At this moment, Yang Xiao came to Gong Yu with a worried look on his face.
Behind him were two beautiful girls.
Gong Yu knew one of them, that girl was Wei Xiangjun.
As for the other one, it was the first time she saw it.
The girl, whom Gong Yu didn't know, first walked quickly in front of Zhu'er and Han Zhao.
"Sister Zhu'er, Sister Han, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
A hint of surprise appeared on Zhu'er's face: "Yang Buhui?"
"What are you doing here?"
Yang Buhui pointed at Yang Xiao's nose and said, "My father said that you three sisters are weak and helpless, so he asked me to protect you."
Yang Xiao, who was standing aside, coughed twice vigorously.
He scolded Yang Buhui, "You little bitch, that's not what I said just now. I just asked you to protect the three ladies."
"When did I say that the three ladies were powerless?"
Yang Buhui said: "Although you didn't say it explicitly, this is what you meant in your words and deeds."
Gong Yu said: "General Yang, I have tens of thousands of soldiers with me to transport the grain this time."
"You only have this one daughter. This journey is dangerous, so you'd better keep her by your side."
Yang Xiao said: "Madam Gong, let Buhui go with you."
"Although my daughter is a little naughty, her cultivation is much better than Wei Yixiao's daughter."
"On the way, you can treat her as a maid. Once we arrive in Dadu, you can do whatever you want with this girl."
After Yang Xiao said this, he did not forget to glance at Han Zhao beside him.
Han Zhao understood this look very well.
Before following Zhang Wuji, Han Zhao was a maid in Yang Xiao's mansion, and Yang Xiao always took good care of her.
At this moment, Han Zhao understood that the time had come for Yang Xiao to use him.
Han Zhao pulled Yang Buhui's hand and said, "Miss, since you want to follow us, then follow us. We haven't seen each other for several years."
"If you're bored on the way, we can talk."
Yang Buhui quickly said, "Sister Han, please don't call me Miss anymore."
"You are Brother Wuji's wife now. When Brother Wuji conquers the world, you will at least be a noble concubine."
"If you call me Miss again, it will really embarrass me."
Zhu'er, who was standing by, said to Han Zhao in surprise: "Sister Han, you are much smarter than me."
"Uncle Yang sent his daughter here at this time. There must be something fishy about it."
Han Zhao could only pretend not to hear what Zhu'er said.
She continued to hold Yang Buhui's hand and said, "Miss, I am a grateful person, so you can rest assured."
Han Zhao's words were apparently addressed to Yang Buhui, but in fact, they were addressed to Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao quickly bowed to Han Zhao and said, "Madam Han, I'll leave this girl in your care."
Gong Yu was so smart that she guessed the trick in an instant.
Wei Yixiao was gambling before, and now Yang Xiao also joined the gambling.
Gong Yu thought to himself: "This is good. Yin Yewang, Wei Yixiao and Yang Xiao are all generals who lead troops into battle."
"They gave their daughter to Zhang Wuji, which would make the relationship between the monarch and his subject stronger."
"Especially Yang Xiao at this moment, he now controls the entire Hexi alone."
"When Zhang Wuji is not around, he is the emperor."
"And at this time, Yang Xiao gave his daughter to Zhang Wuji, which was also a statement of his attitude."
After figuring things out, Gong Yu said with a smile: "Okay, in that case, let's take this sister with us."
Zhu'er said in disbelief: "Sister Gong, Han Zhao's brain is broken, how come your brain is broken too."
"This Yang Buhui has come with bad intentions."
Gong Yu smiled and said, "Sister Zhu'er, now is not the time to explain these things."
"If you have anything to say, let's talk on the road."
After Gong Yu said this, he looked at Wei Xiangjun again: "Why are you here too?"
Wei Xiangjun said: "If I say that I am going to find my damn father, would you believe it?"
Gong Yu smiled and said, "Of course I believe it. Why wouldn't I believe it?"
"As long as you are willing to come, it means that you have already figured out some things in your heart."
"As a woman, you will get married sooner or later, so it doesn't matter who you marry."
Wei Xiangjun lowered her head and said with a red face: "I, I don't understand what you are saying."
Gong Yu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. If you don't understand today, maybe you will understand it in the future."
Everything is ready.
Thanks to Gong Yu's foresight, everything here was ready for action before Yang Xiao returned.
As they were about to set off, Yang Xiao couldn't help but say to Gong Yu, "Miss Gong, you are pregnant now. The journey is dangerous, so you must take care of yourself."
Gong Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, General Yang. I have also experienced life and death. I am not as delicate as you think."
"But before you leave, I have something to tell you."
Yang Xiao quickly said, "Madam Gong, please speak."
Gong Yu said: "I know General Yang's loyalty, so I will leave His Majesty's only child to you."
"I have found quite a few maids to keep the prince company."
"You should also surround him with more guards. This is the only son of His Majesty, he is of great importance."
Yang Xiao quickly said: "Don't worry, Madam Gong, I know the interests involved."
"Even if I, Yang Xiao, am torn to pieces, I will never let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suffer any harm."
Gong Yu smiled and said, "That's the best. Then we will set off. The entire Hexi will be handed over to General Yang."
…
Gong Yu left, but Yang Xiao felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavier.
Yang Xiao knew that Zhang Wuji asked him to stay in Hexi out of trust in him. This trust was just like when Liu Bei asked Guan Yu to guard Jingzhou.
And now, several of Zhang Wuji's wives have handed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince over to him, which is enough to prove that there are far more people who trust him than just Zhang Wuji.
As a general, it is important to achieve great things, but the most important thing is to follow the right people.
