Chapter 219 The art of changing homes?

If Gao Changsheng's words were to get out and be heard by others, it would definitely cause an earthquake.

The fact that he was called by this name made the identity of this person obvious.

The Nine Founders of the Sui Dynasty, the Twin Stars, one of the military gods who swept across the north and south when the Sui Dynasty was founded, the former Duke of Qi, Gao Jiong, and Gao Zhaoxuan.

No one expected that this person would suddenly appear in the depths of the palace.

Not to mention anything else, the news that this person is not dead is enough to shock the world.

Gao Changsheng did not move, his eyes were shining brightly.

With just one glance, the layout of this so-called forbidden area was completely captured by his eyes.

The place is not big, and there is nothing special about the layout.

At first glance, it looks like an empty square.

But in the center of the square stood a strange building.

Overall it looks like an altar, but both its shape and decoration are very different from the ordinary impression of an altar.

Judging from the appearance alone, even Gao Changsheng couldn't tell its specific purpose. Instead, it looked more like a simple decoration.

Accompanied by a gust of breeze, the field suddenly became brighter, and in an instant it seemed as if endless starlight was cast down.

Gao Ying moved and stepped forward.

If an ordinary person were here, just one look would probably scare him to death.

Because Gao Ying's figure actually passed directly through the building in the center of the square.

When ordinary people see it for the first time, the first reaction that comes to their mind is definitely a ghost, a ghost without a physical body.

Gao Changsheng did not show any surprise.

With his keen eyesight, he had already noticed something unusual.

The Gao Ying that appeared before his eyes was not a real entity.

To some extent, just like the mysterious man from the White Lotus Sect that I met in Jingnian Zen Temple that day, they are all projections.

However, Gao Ying's projection is obviously purer, and it can be said that it really expresses the word "shadow" to the fullest.

A figure flashed by, as if walking, but it looked more like a wandering soul.

Such a claustrophobic environment, coupled with a ghost-like shadow floating around, the combination of the two would definitely be an extreme test for the timid.

Of course, Gao Changsheng is definitely not included in this.

The area of ​​this forbidden land is not large, and Gao Ying’s speed is also extremely fast.

So in just one breath, Gao Jiong had arrived in front of Gao Changsheng.

His deep gaze fell on Gao Changsheng.

Gao Changsheng could emotionally see the relief and emotion in the other person's eyes.

"I, your father, never expected that you would grow so fast. It's so fast that even us old guys are ashamed."

Gao Jiong spoke slowly, but did not explain why he was not dead, and Gao Changsheng did not ask.

For smart people, many things do not actually need to be explained. An appearance or even an action can explain everything.

"Defeating the Mongols and saving the Sui Dynasty was truly a great achievement."

A smile appeared on Gao Ying's face.

"When Lai Huer was trying to break out, the one who helped him was..."

"Yes, it is as a father, but this is all I can do. I can't spare much strength, so I can only open a gap for him." Gao Jiong nodded.

"This is also what King Kaoshan meant. After his fall, there is no one in the country who can compete with Temujin."

"So we chose to place the final bet on you, and the final result did not disappoint us."

"I never thought that we old guys would benefit from you in the end."

Gao Ying laughed out loud.

Gao Changsheng nodded, and when Lai Huer was about to go into battle, he withdrew from the front line and did not return to Daxing, but went straight to Nanjing City.

It seems that this is not just the idea of ​​King Yang Lin, but a decision made by many people together.

"Do you trust me so much?" Gao Changsheng raised his eyebrows.

Gao Ying shook his head slightly:

"On the battlefield, who can be 100% sure?"

"Especially when we are facing Genghis Khan, no one in the world would dare to say that they will win before the battle begins."

"Since it's gambling, there are naturally winners and losers."

"I can only say that, looking at the entire Sui Dynasty, you are the one with the greatest hope of winning. I can even say that you are the only one who has the strength to fight."

Gao Ying shook his head and smiled bitterly.

When the Sui Dynasty was at its peak, there were many generals.

But too much effort was put into that plan.

Moreover, although the Sui Dynasty was strong, the Mongols were equally terrifying.

Especially Temujin. After Yang Lin died in battle, the Sui Dynasty really couldn't find anyone who could compete head-on with the opponent.

"What if I lose?"

Gao Changsheng looked up and said.

"Although we have placed our bets on you and believe that you can do it, there are always unexpected events and there are winners and losers in bets."

Having said that, Gao Ying slowly raised his head, with a fierce look in his eyes.

"The entire Sui Dynasty is prepared to lose."

Slowly raise your head and look into the distance.

Gao Ying's cold voice came out slowly.

"If you lose again, Temujin will surely march straight in."

"The Mongol army has entered the country, and the fate of the country has been shaken. The plan of our Great Sui Dynasty for many years will inevitably be ruined."

"Decades of hard work were overturned in one day. Naturally, Temujin and the Mongols will bear the brunt of this overwhelming anger."

"Oh?"

Gao Changsheng showed a puzzled look. He was also curious about what preparations these people had made in secret.

Gao Ying did not hide anything and spoke directly:
"As soon as the news of your defeat spreads, we will immediately abandon our years of planning."

"My father and Yang Su will be the commanders, the Sun and Moon Cavalry will be the vanguard, and all the hidden forces will be deployed in full force to attack the Mongol homeland."

"With the loss of elite troops, the invasion of foreign tribes, and the chronic disease of national destiny, the Great Sui Dynasty is doomed to fail. Rather than lingering on, it is better to give up directly. But the Mongols will not have an easy time either."

The voice was sonorous and powerful, carrying with it a bloody and iron-blooded spirit.

Even Gao Changsheng was slightly stunned when he heard this.

This desperate counterattack reminded him of the famous home-changing tactic from his previous life.

Abandoning the Sui Dynasty and attacking directly on the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, Gao Jiong obviously wanted to make an extreme one-for-one exchange.

Of course, Gao Jiong’s strategy is very different from the shocking strategy in his previous life.

Gao Jiong's method was mainly aimed at causing mutual losses.

The troops they brought with them were also from the Sui Dynasty, and not the common people of the Sui Dynasty.

However, this is also the limitation of the times. For the aristocratic families and the upper class, the people and the people's power are important, but that's all.

The same is true for Gao Jiong. After all, their Gao family is actually a member of a noble family.

In addition, and most importantly, just one instruction or one mobilization can make the whole country abandon their homeland and follow without hesitation, regardless of life and death.

The Yang family couldn't do it, Gao Jiong couldn't do it, and no emperor or royal family in this world could do it.

Perhaps the only one who could really come up with such a plan and implement it perfectly is the red star and the person who carved it.

"Put yourself in a desperate situation and then survive. Give up the Sui Dynasty and try to gain a new life in the Mongols?" Gao Changsheng smiled lightly.

"But what if Temujin also abandons the Sui Dynasty and withdraws his troops without a care in the world?"

Gao Changsheng did not ask why Gao Jiong did not choose another direction.

There are quite a few countries surrounding the Sui Dynasty, such as Beimang Liyang in the south and the Song Dynasty in the west. From a general perspective, they are all more suitable than the Mongols.

After all, Gao Changsheng had already driven a nail into Liyang, Beimang, while the Song Dynasty was relatively weak. But the actual situation was obviously not the case.

The prerequisite for the implementation of Gao Jiong's plan is that Gao Changsheng and the Sui Dynasty are defeated.

The so-called wall is pushed down by people.

The original Sui Dynasty could intimidate all directions, but by that time, the surrounding countries would definitely not miss the opportunity to share the spoils.

Whether entering the Northern Mang or the Song Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty only has one chance, with enemies on all sides.

Moreover, if the Sui Dynasty's land was given to Temujin without restriction, the expansion of the Mongols would be unstoppable.

Even if they could gain a foothold in the Song Dynasty or Northern Mang, they would only be able to survive. After all, even a fool knew that Temujin would never slow down his expansion.

However, there will be no such drawback if we take action against the Mongols.

First of all, it can directly limit the growth of the Mongols.

Second, no other country would take action. Even if the surrounding countries wanted to take advantage of the situation, they would not extend their hands to the land of the Mongols.

But this strategy obviously has a huge drawback.

Temujin was also a famous general. If he had withdrawn his troops immediately, the Sui army, which had not yet established a firm foothold, would have been defeated.

After all, there is no such thing as guerrilla tactics in this world.

"He can't do it."

Gao Jiong spoke calmly, and it seemed that they had other arrangements for Temujin.

"I will station the remaining 30,000 brave soldiers in Daxing."

Gao Jiong raised his head and said, "When Temujin's troops arrive, Your Majesty will lead the brave men and use the power of the military spirit to detonate the fate of the Sui Dynasty."

"His~~~"

Gao Changsheng was only slightly surprised by Gao Jiong's previous strategy.

But when he heard this, he was really shocked and couldn't help but gasp.

It's really cruel and decisive to the extreme.

Gao Changsheng didn't know who came up with this plan, but no matter who proposed it, it would definitely have to pass Yang Guang's test.

The consequences of detonating the country's destiny with one's own hands in Daxing City can be imagined.

No matter what, the person who took action, Yang Guang, would definitely die.

That's why Gao Changsheng used the word "ruthless" to describe this strategy.

Thirty thousand military soul troops, plus the life of an emperor.

Simply appalling.

Only then did Gao Changsheng understand why Gao Jiong was so confident that Temujin would not be able to return.

When the national destiny is detonated, the destructive power generated is astonishing.

Even if Temujin managed to survive, he would face another terrible consequence.

Yang Guang and the country's destiny exploded, and the direct consequence was the fall of the Sui Dynasty.

The luck was scattered, and Temujin, who led his troops into the Sui territory, was the first target.

Especially, it is above the Daxing Imperial City.

This is equivalent to forcibly changing the owner of this land.

The destiny of the country shifted, and it can be said that in an instant, Temujin became the new emperor of this land.

Although he did not establish a country and ascend the throne, nor was it as stable as the previous Sui Dynasty, it was just a preliminary connection.

If it were someone else, this good thing that fell from the sky would naturally be something they would be happy to receive.

But the situation was different then.

The national destiny was ignited, war broke out, and the Sui Dynasty must have been plagued by disasters and in turmoil.

Luck in this situation is not a good thing.

What's more, Temujin had been avoiding national destiny all along and even gave up the throne of the Yuan Dynasty.

This move by Gao Jiong, Yang Guang and others was the most deadly poison in the world for Temujin.

"Hu~~"

Gao Ying raised his head and let out a breath of foul air.

"Now that Temujin has been defeated by you, all of this is in the past and there is no need to mention it again."

"Let's talk about business."

"I wasn't planning on meeting you at this time."

"If the plan works, you and I will meet again one day."

"However, your actions in Luoyang alarmed all of us."

Having said this, Gao Jiong paused, looked at Gao Changsheng deeply, and then suddenly sighed:
"Your excellence has truly exceeded everyone's expectations."

"I didn't expect it, Yang Su didn't expect it, and no one expected you to be able to trigger that formation."

After saying this, Gao Ying fell into silence.

Gao Changsheng didn't say anything either.

The two figures looked at each other, but fell into a strange silence.

After a long while, Gao Ying slowly spoke:
"How long until Tongtian?"

Gao Changsheng shook his head: "It seems to be within reach, but when I reach out my hand it feels far away. Even after experiencing it myself in Xiangfan, I still feel that I can see it but I can't touch it."

Gao Changsheng frowned slightly. This realm was really too strange. He had been practicing and making great progress all the way, but this was the first time he encountered such a problem.

"It's normal, you don't have to worry."

"The realm of Tongtian is extremely mysterious. It is a realm, but it is not a simple realm."

"Everything you see could be real, but it could also be an illusion."

"Perhaps you are already standing at the door, or one foot, or even your whole body, has stepped in."

"Don't be anxious, just keep your heart. Maybe one day you will just drink a sip of water and close your eyes, and suddenly you will find that everything is clear and the world has changed dramatically."

"I, your father, cannot help you with this. Even I myself have not yet fully entered this realm. Moreover, unlike cultivation, there is no experience to speak of in this realm."

Gao Ying sighed quietly.

Gao Changsheng also nodded slightly. Having experienced that state personally, he knew the feeling very well.

"How sure are you?"

This time, it was not Gao Jiong who asked the question, but Gao Changsheng.

Naturally, the question was not about cultivation, but had something else in mind.

Gao Ying did not answer immediately. He was silent for several minutes before he slowly spoke:
"After decades of accumulation, we have gathered all the superior forces of the Sui Dynasty, planned and calculated. It can be said that we have already given everything we have."

"But my father and Yang Su have deduced and calculated countless times, and the conclusion we finally reached is less than 30%."

With a probability of less than 30%, it can almost be concluded that it has failed.

"That's why I made so many arrangements. I didn't want you to join the army because I didn't see any hope of success. If you fail, the Sui Dynasty will most likely fall, and the royal family, the army, and the nobles will all be the first to suffer."

"But I didn't expect that you would eventually embark on this path, and grow so fast."

"It even benefits us because of you."

"According to my estimation, our chances of success are now over 50%."

"Your contribution alone is almost as good as the combined efforts of me, Yang Su and others."

"Since the founding of the country, Yang Su has always been competing with me and has never been submissive to me. But after hearing about your achievements, he personally told me that he is convinced."

Gao Ying was all smiles, obviously very happy.

But soon, he put away his smile:
"Even so, it is extremely dangerous with all these factors."

"You have to pay special attention to doing what you can no matter where you are at the time, and don't get too involved."

"If something is impossible, get out of it in time."

"Don't force it. Your father has dedicated his whole life to this country. We have done enough for the Sui Dynasty. My Gao family does not owe the Yang family anything."
