I Can Control My Ancestors-Chapter 144 - 54: Stalemate in the Situation, Gu Xi Mobilizes Troops (3)

Chapter 144: Chapter 54: Stalemate in the Situation, Gu Xi Mobilizes Troops (3)

In several decades of regency, there has never been a major mistake.

Yet during these two dynasties, he has been through so much, having grievances in his heart is normal.

If he had no grievances at all, Liu Hong might think more.

However, saying that from now on Liu Hong could change his mind and employ Gu Xi heavily

is clearly still impossible.

For him, the most desirable situation would be for Gu Xi to succeed in quelling the Yellow Turban Rebellion this time, but also die on the battlefield.

In this way, the current crisis would be resolved.

And at the same time, it would not affect his political balance, achieving two goals at once.

....

The news of Gu Xi taking command again spread through the entire Luoyang like a tide.

For a while, cheers echoed from all four corners of Luoyang.

This news, like a glaring beam of light, once again dispelled the clouds over people’s hearts after decades.

Feiting Marquis Mansion.

Cao Cao hurriedly rushed out of the mansion and headed straight to the Yuan Mansion.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Yuan Shao who was just about to go out.

"Mengde!"

Yuan Shao seemed to have been wanting to find Cao Cao and others. Upon seeing Cao Cao, he immediately showed a spirited expression, somewhat proudly saying, "How is it?"

"I knew the court would deploy the Grand Tutor to quell the bandits!"

"My uncle has already permitted the Yuan Clan’s descendants to follow the Grand Tutor to quell the bandits. This time we will surely achieve distinguished feats!"

His face was full of an excited smile, and his eyes showed eager anticipation,

Who couldn’t foresee that the court would employ the Grand Tutor?

Cao Cao nodded admiringly but thought to himself, knowing well what Yuan Shao said, smiling, "Brother Ben Chu, indeed you have keen eyesight!"

"My father also prepares for me to go and follow the Grand Tutor to war."

"Why don’t we two brothers go together?"

Upon hearing Cao Cao’s words, Yuan Shao’s eyes lit up immediately, and he laughed heartily, "Good! Good! Good!"

"This time the Grand Tutor will personally lead the troops."

"You and our brothers will surely achieve unprecedented feats!"

At their tender age of teens, they are in the prime of spirit and passion.

Full of expectations for the future.

Just then, an untimely cold snort sounded.

"Mengde."

"The Grand Tutor personally leads troops, how do you presume he would substitute you, the descendant of a eunuch, to go to war?"

Cao Cao’s face instantly froze, quickly turning his head to see Yuan Shu approaching slowly.

His face full of arrogance.

"Brother Gonglu."

Cao Cao quickly suppressed the anger in his eyes, forcing a slight smile on his face, and said not too humbly nor too arrogantly, "Though my grandfather was a eunuch, he was not a person who caused chaos in the world."

"Even the Grand Tutor once praised my grandfather in the past."

"Could it be that Brother Gonglu is doubting the Grand Tutor’s insight?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Shu’s eyes flashed with anger, but he didn’t respond, only snorted coldly.

At the same time, this scene was happening everywhere in Luoyang.

Regarding Gu Xi taking command again,

all the major clans showed the same attitude, which was to send their offspring to gain merit.

No one worried about the war anymore.

Since the Jingping period, Gu Xi has been recognized by everyone as the premier commander of the Great Han.

He has never been defeated in any expedition.

Such a good opportunity, how could they not let the family’s descendants go along?

This is a rebellion suppression!

In such a large-scale rebellion, as long as one can establish merits, the rise in reputation is unimaginable.

Perhaps because Gu Xi has been too capable of surviving, by now hardly anyone thinks Gu Xi will die on the battlefield.

Even in this expeditious march, Gu Xi planned to bring along the Gu Clan’s descendants.

The sixth generation of the Gu Clan’s descendants has already grown up one after another.

Actually, the best in Martial Force is Gu Tao; he is an outlying presence.

But besides Gu Tao, the Gu Clan still has some people with good Martial Force, with attributes reaching around 60 points.

For these martial-gifted descendants, going to the battlefield is the best way to progress.

Obviously, Gu Xi also intends to take this opportunity to let the Gu Clan’s descendants accumulate reputation!....

News keeps spreading.

Suddenly, the entire land of the Great Han was bubbling with excitement.

Although Gu Xi has not yet left the capital.

The morale between the Han Army and the Yellow Turban Army suddenly shifted....
