15th year of Xiping, October

Longxi, Liangzhou, well out of Huanglong.

Flower thorn Zimo, Yangjialing

The whole mountain range, is pitch black, there is no half of emerald green, it looks particularly terrifying, under the mountain, is erected a stone stele, on the book "Xiaoying warriors, sleep here." ”

Gongsun Chan knelt in front of the stele, his eyes were glazed, looking at the mountains in the distance, he didn't know what he was thinking, although he was rescued, but the injuries on his body could not be recovered, he was covered with burns, and the half of his burned face made him look very hideous and terrifying, he just knelt quietly in front of the stele, silent.

Behind him, there were also two soldiers, as well as a general, and the general was none other than Hua Xiong.

After Dong Zhuo came back, he came to visit Gongsun Zhan, and told Cao Cao about burning the enemy and avenging him, Gongsun Zhan was not as excited as Dong Zhuo expected, nor did he have the madness of revenge, he was just stunned, without any words, stunned for a long time, he said, he just wanted to see his brothers again.

Dong Zhuo agreed, and sent Huaxiong with two soldiers and Gongsun Zan to come here to worship the warriors of the Xiaoyong Battalion.

Hua Xiong stood not far away, muttered to himself for a while, and then looked at Gongsun Zhan, I don't know why, this guy has been kneeling here for nearly a day, he has arrived here in the early morning, the sun is about to set, this guy is still kneeling here, fortunately, he has a long memory, this time he brought enough food, so as not to starve, but....

Hua Xiong looked at Gongsun Zan again, he had been sitting here on his knees all day, without eating or drinking.

He slowly walked to Gongsun Zhan's side, looked at Gongsun Chan who was motionless, and was a little scared in his heart, should this guy die?

"Captain Gongsun?"

Hua Xiong spoke, Gongsun Zhan trembled, suddenly woke up, raised his head, glanced at Hua Xiong, Hua Xiong breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "You don't move, I thought you were dead, scare me..."

Gongsun Chan didn't say anything, stretched out a little trembling hand, looked for it from the package on the side, and finally, he groped out a fish, this fish was a little fishy, Hua Xiong stood in the distance, he could smell the fishy smell from the fish, he stretched out his hand, quickly covered his mouth and nose, took out the air-dried meat from the side, handed it to Gongsun Zhan, and said: "You eat me, your fish stinks!" ”

Gongsun Chan still ignored him, took out the fish, put it to his mouth, and bit it directly, this appearance frightened Hua Xiong back a few steps, Gongsun Chan gulped the big fish and bit the big fish, "Brothers, come and eat... Although this fish is not as good as Donghao's, it is also delicious... In the future, I want to eat fish... Who's going to cook fish for me to eat..."

"Brothers.... Come on, have a good time today!! ”

Gongsun Chan screamed hoarsely, munching on the fish.

Hua Xiong stood aside, looked at it for a long time, and said cautiously: "Captain... They were all dead and could not eat. ”

Gongsun Chan was stunned for a moment, and asked blankly, "Are they all dead?" ”

"They're all dead."

Gongsun Chan closed his eyes, his hands trembled violently, suddenly, Dou Da's tears kept rolling down from his eyes, the big fish in his hand fell to the ground, he tore his hair with both hands, cried loudly, cried heartbreakingly, cried loudly, cried very loudly, tears kept falling, and he knelt on the ground.

"Captain, when will we be able to go home! I saved up a lot of money, just enough money to buy a fish pond! ”

"Captain, although we are timid... But if you need it, we can die....."

"Captain save me! It hurts!!! ”

Familiar figures appeared in front of Gongsun Chan one by one.

Gongsun Chan fell to the ground, wept bitterly, stretched out his hand, and headed in the direction of the mountain, trying to catch something, but couldn't catch anything!

"Come back!! I'll take you home!!!!!! ”

Gongsun Chan cried and fell to the ground, convulsive, motionless, Hua Xiong hurriedly rushed up, picked him up, stretched out his hand, and probed his snort, fortunately, his snort was still there, Hua Xiong hurriedly shouted: "Quick, take the captain back to the house!" ”

The soldiers hurriedly got on their horses, took Gongsun Zhan, Hua Xiong rushed to the front, and several people galloped away.

Quickly rushing back to the camp, Hua Xiong roared, "Doctor!! Physician!! The doctor who was treating the wounded and sick in the camp tent in the distance heard his roar, and hurriedly rushed out, took Gongsun Chan into the camp, and hurriedly checked it, Hua Xiong stood at the door, frowned, stood for a long time, and left.

When Dong Zhuo heard the news that Gongsun Zhan had fallen ill again, he almost jumped up in a hurry and shouted, "Where is the Hua Manzi? What does he eat?! Call him to me immediately!! ”

The soldier hurriedly walked out of the camp tent, searched everywhere, and could not find Hua Xiong's figure, and finally, in the kitchen, he found Hua Xiong, Hua Xiong was kneeling on the ground, holding a leg of mutton, eating with relish, seeing him like this, the soldier was speechless, and hurriedly said: "Captain Hua!" Dong Gong is looking for you..."

Hua Xiong let out a long sigh, threw the leg of mutton in his hand to the soldier, and left here helplessly.

Walking into Dong Zhuo's tent, Hua Xiong hurriedly asked, "Dong Gong, are you looking for me?" ”

Dong Zhuo, who was angry, looked at Hua Xiong's oily face, was stunned for a moment, and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

"I'm going to eat, I'm hungry," Hua Xiong replied with a smile as he patted his abdomen.

Dong Zhuo looked at him, was silent for a long time, and asked, "Did Bo Gui faint from crying?" Hua Xiong hurriedly said: "Dong Gong, this can't rely on me, I told him in advance, this stinky fish can't be eaten, he has to eat, after eating, he cries and roars, frightening me, I didn't know before, it turns out that eating stinky fish will not only spoil my stomach...."

"Hehe..."Dong Zhuo chuckled, looked at Hua Xiong, and let him sit in front of him.

"Sometimes, I envy you..."Dong Zhuo said.

Hua Xiong grinned and said, "A lot of people say that... They say I have no heart and no lungs! ”

"Heh, you're pretty proud..."

Dong Zhuo shook his head and continued: "Tomorrow, I will withdraw my troops and go back, the Son of Heaven has sent an edict to Captain Xu Chu to lead a thousand soldiers to guard here, and to use Flower Thorn Zimo and Sogdia as Xiting County... With the Western Regions as the Western State, the Jia Guild stayed here and served as the Assassin of the Western Prefecture... Cao Cao served as the first Taishou of Xiting County... It seems that the Son of Heaven wants to reinstate Cao Cao..."

Hua Xiong listened carefully and did not speak.

"You just follow me back, this time, I will definitely be able to enter the position of Tai Lieutenant, you will give me a long history..."

Hua Xiong's eyes widened, and he hurriedly asked, "This long history is thousands of stones, can you beat the northern lieutenant of Luoyang?" ”

"Bastard, even if you are a captain, you can't beat the northern lieutenant of Luoyang!!"

"Oh...."

"Alas.... Hua Manzi... Misfortune comes from the mouth, misfortune comes from the mouth, although you have not followed me for the longest, but among the many generals, I am the closest to you... You're so much better than those hypocrites who can't tell the real from the fake... However, if you are outspoken, this character must be changed, otherwise, you will suffer a lot in the future..."

"Don't be tongue-in-cheek, if you don't need to speak, then don't speak..."

Dong Zhuo said with some solemn persuasion.

Hua Xiong nodded a little dazedly, and he didn't know if he understood.

"Also, you are not too young, I heard that Yuan Shu has already started a family, and when you go back this time, it is time to set up a family..." I don't want to ask for trouble..."

"No, you're an only son, you can't cut off your family's incense... Listen to me, take a wife, and have children sooner..."

"Whatever... Dong Gong said so..."Hua Xiong said with a smile.

Dong Zhuo looked at him and said gently: "I have a granddaughter, who is virtuous and generous, and is as worthy as you... After the withdrawal of the army, I will marry you with my granddaughter..."

When Hua Xiong heard this, he was shocked, raised his head, looked Dong Zhuo up and down, looked at him for a long time, shook his head, and said with some horror: "Dong Gong, I'm used to it....."

"Someone's coming!!!"

This person, the army retreated, Cao Cao, Xu Chu and others stayed here, they said goodbye to everyone, Sun Jian and Xu Chu explained a lot, and Cao Cao reluctantly parted, Dong Zhuo's heart was full of excitement, he couldn't wait, the dream of Taiwei was about to come true, which made him not want to stay here for a moment, he wanted to go to Luoyang as soon as possible, and took the rest of the generals and hurriedly rushed towards Luoyang.

And Hua Xiong is still enjoying the treatment of the prisoner car, and this time, everyone doesn't know why he is sitting in the prison car.

When they walked out of Guishan and set foot in the Western Regions, the soldiers who had been far away from home for many years sang excitedly, and the people in the countryside came forward to watch, so they drove all the way, and when they arrived in Liangzhou, Sun Jian took the soldiers of the Southern Army and stayed, he still had to garrison the northwest, of course, his reward would not be lacking, Dong Zhuo patted him on the shoulder and told him that he would definitely get the reward he deserved!

On the road he was traveling, the people greeted each other and the officials entertained him, but Dong Zhuo did not stay long, he wanted to return to Luoyang as soon as possible.

In the sixteenth year of Xiping, the first month.

Dong Zhuo led the army back to Luoyang.

The news of Dong Zhuo's great victory has already been boiling in Luoyang, for this army of great victory, Situ personally went to greet him outside Luoyang, holding Dong Zhuo's hand, holding Dong Zhuo's hand, holding Dong Zhuo with a smirk, all the way into Luoyang, Luoyang is crowded with people, whether it is ordinary people or Shizi rangers, they are all cheering, shouting "Long live the Han!" ”

Dong Zhuo had already mounted his horse and walked at the forefront of the whole army, facing everyone's eyes, he raised his head high and smiled all over his face.

Hua Xiong was also released from the prison car, and walked in the back with a sad face.

"Congratulations to Captain Dong, return with a great victory!" Lu Zhi said with a smile.

Dong Zhuo's face was full of smiles, but he shook his head and said, "Situ Gong made a mistake, when will I be a captain?" ”

"Hahaha, the Son of Heaven has discussed in the court before, and he wants to worship Dong Gong as the captain! I haven't celebrated Dong Gong yet! ”

"Hahahaha! Thanks a lot! Dong Zhuo laughed.

The army returned to the school, but Dong Zhuo was going to the palace to meet the Son of Heaven, he turned out his most exquisite clothes, put them on, the palace is not allowed to wear armor, and the Son of Heaven ordered him to bring a meritorious captain with him, unexpectedly, he chose Hua Xiong, however, Hua Xiong as a pioneer all the way, has repeatedly defeated the Guishan army, and has single-handedly destroyed the main force of the Guishan rebels.

In fact, Guan Yu is obviously a more suitable candidate, but even if Dong Zhuo chose Hua Xiong, Guan Yu was not angry or dissatisfied with this, but just advised Hua Xiong that after seeing the Son of Heaven, he should say less words, and don't bring death to Dong Zhuo and himself!

Dong Zhuo wore his most satisfactory clothes, took a long time in front of the bronze mirror, cleaned up properly, and went to the palace, Hua Xiong followed aside, dressed a little simply, the two came all the way to the palace gate, the guards saw that it was Dong Zhuo, and hurriedly saluted to meet the three princes, which made Dong Zhuo very satisfied, waved his hand, and asked them to get up.

Soon, the gate of the palace was wide open, and there was a yellow door to welcome the two of them in, not directly to the Houde Palace, but to Qiongyuan, Han Men brought them here, pointed to the seats on the ground, and said with a smile: "Taiwei Gong waited for a while, Taiwei crown clothes are still being prepared, and the previous preparation did not meet the requirements of Taiwei Gong..."

Hua Xiong said loudly: "That's nature! Among the captains in the history of my Han Dynasty, my Dong Gong is the fattest! ”

Dong Zhuo wanted to scold him, but he was in a good mood, so he didn't bother with him, and let Hanmen continue to prepare, and soon after, the Son of Heaven was going to come to worship himself as a captain, Dong Zhuo knelt on the ground, and his heart was extremely excited, what a glory this is, the Son of Heaven is going to worship himself, he grinned, couldn't help laughing, Hua Xiong looked at him suspiciously, and moved away a little.

"Dong Gong.... When am I going to your house? Is your granddaughter much younger than me? ”

Hua Xiong asked, but Dong Zhuo did not reply.

"Alas, I'm not disgusted, it's just that I'm a little afraid of starting a family..."

"They all say that I have no heart and no lungs, in fact, I am not like that, I will also be sad, but I think, it is useless to be sad, I am sad, my brothers who fought with me can come back to life? Will my family be able to survive? ”

"No, therefore, I am never sad, anyway, one day, I will leave... Let's go see them and talk about it then? ”

"Dong Gong? Say something! ”

Hua Xiong said helplessly, the music of the Son of Heaven sounded in the distance, Han Men held the crown suit of the Tai Lieutenant, followed behind the Son of Heaven, and the mighty group of people slowly came here, Hua Xiong hurriedly stretched out his hand, touched Dong Zhuo, and said: "Dong Gong, look, the Son of Heaven is fatter than you!" ”

His hand had just touched Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo fell to the left.

Fell to the ground, motionless.

Hua Xiong looked at him blankly.

Slowly getting up, he walked to his side, stretched out his hand, and sniffed.

As for the Son of Heaven's guard of honor, it seems that he also noticed the situation here, the Son of Heaven was shocked, and the surrounding Yellow Gate was also a little flustered, and the group hurriedly walked over, Hua Xiong just stood stunned, looking at all this, the Son of Heaven looked at him, Hua Xiong looked at the Son of Heaven blankly, the Son of Heaven looked at his eyes a little red, but he never shed half a tear.

Hua Xiong's face twitched slightly, he took a step back, and bowed to the Son of Heaven:

"The last general, Huaxiong! Come for Dong Gong to get the crown of the captain!! ”
