The person who followed Guan Yu was eight feet long, with a leopard's head and eyes, swallow jaws and tiger whiskers, and a voice like thunder. Wearing a black suit of armor and carrying an eight-point snake spear, he looked very imposing.

This person was Zhang Fei, who was in the coalition camp and almost stabbed Huaxing to death with a snake spear.

And the silver-armored man who walked at the end was also more than eight feet tall, born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, handsome and chic, with a white face and beard, and a broad face.

But looking at it, Hua Xing still felt that he had never seen this person before.

When he walked forty or fifty steps away from the village gate, he saw Guan Yu wave his hand and ordered everyone to stop in place.

Looking at Hua Xing in the attic, Guan Yu, who was riding on horseback, first snorted coldly, and then asked knowingly in that cold tone

"The person standing on the stage is the anti-thief Huaxing?"

Hearing the word "anti-thief", Huaxing immediately frowned.

Due to the accidental injury of Liu Bei, in front of Guan and Zhang, Huaxing will indeed feel guilty.

But that doesn't mean you can let others label you indiscriminately.

As soon as Guan Yu's voice fell, he heard Hua Xing reply coldly

"General Guan, if I don't steal or rob, how can I talk about being a thief? But wait, not only to bring troops here, but also to plunder, I think you are the thief, right? ”

As soon as these words came out, without waiting for Guan Yu to speak, Zhang Fei, who was following him, was instantly detonated like a powder keg, pointing at Huaxing on the stage and scolding

"You shameless boy, you colluded with Dong thief to kill my brother in Tiger Prison Pass before, you are not an anti-thief, who is an anti-thief?"

"General Zhang, about Brother Liu's death, I have already explained that I did it on purpose, it was purely an accident. As for you saying that I colluded with Dong Thief, it would be even more ridiculous. Dong Zhuo died at my hands, how could I collude with him? Huaxing said with a helpless face.

"Humph! Glib tongue! ”

After snorting coldly angrily, he heard Zhang Fei say again, "Then why do you want to occupy the official mine privately?" You can't get rid of it, right? ”

Hua Xing had already guessed that Zhang Fei would definitely bring up Liu Bei's matter again, so after listening to the previous sentence, he was not surprised at all.

But what he didn't expect was that the other party followed up with another sentence of "private occupation of official mines".

As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted the attention of Huaxing.

"Privately occupying official mines?"

Since he hadn't figured out the other party's intention at this time, after thinking about it for a while, he saw Huaxing pretending to be confused and said, "What kind of private occupation of the official mine?" I don't understand what the general is referring to. ”

Seeing that Hua Xing was pretending to be confused with himself, Zhang Fei squeezed the snake spear in his hand hard, pointed to the east and asked

"What? Do you dare to do it? Didn't you own the iron vein? ”

"Oh! You mean the Iron Vein? ”

Hearing these four words, Hua Xing "suddenly realized".

"That iron mine has been abandoned for more than half a year, and I don't see that anyone wants it, so I ordered someone to mine it. Is there something wrong with that? ”

"Of course! The world's mineral deposits belong to my Han family, how can you mine them at will? Saying that you are a thief, what's wrong? ”

Hearing this, Huaxing has basically confirmed that eighty percent of the other party is coming for the iron ore.

In fact, long before the mining was opened, Huaxing had done his homework, and he knew that private mining was a "violation" in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

However, due to the special situation of this mine, it was not recorded in Luoyang, and even if it was mined, it stands to reason that no one would find it, so Huaxing ordered Zuo Feng and others to go to the mine to mine openly.

But what I didn't expect was that just three months later, someone noticed the incident and sent troops to find trouble for themselves!

For this reason, Huaxing was surprised at the same time, but also couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart

How did Gongsun Zhan, who is far away in Youzhou, know about his private mining of official mines?

Thinking of this, he saw Hua Xing frowning and asked

"General Zhang, even if I make a mistake in opening the mine, it won't be your turn to take care of the Youzhou Army, right? Are your hands stretched too far? ”

As soon as these words came out, I saw Zhang Fei shouting with a resentful face

"At this moment, the war in my Youzhou is in full swing, if it weren't for the edict of the little emperor, we wouldn't have time to come to you to play! But since I'm here, I, Zhang Yide, won't go home empty-handed, this time I have to avenge my brother! ”

mentioned the matter of revenge, and saw that Zhang Fei was gritting his teeth, and his face became a little hideous.

After listening to Zhang Fei's words, Huaxing woke up like a dream.

It turned out that it was not Gongsun Chan who wanted to find trouble for himself, but Liu Xie, who was in the palace, wanted to get back the iron mine, and Gongsun Chan was just a weapon for him to snatch the mine.

But how did Liu Xie know about the existence of the iron vein?

It stands to reason that no one in Luoyang should know about this! How did the emperor find out so quickly?

Thinking of this, I saw a deep sense of confusion in Huaxing's eyes......

Seeing Huaxing standing on the lookout platform for a long time without speaking, the impatient Zhang Fei opened his mouth and shouted while riding his horse in circles

"The surname is Hua! Don't rub on it, come down quickly and die! As long as you are willing to hand over the head of Xiang Shang, I promise not to hurt a single soldier! ”

Hua Xing didn't take Zhang Fei's threatening words to heart at all.

It took about ten seconds before he raised his head and shouted at the city

"General Zhang, listen to what you mean, the Holy One sent you to take my life?"

"Humph! So what? Isn't it? If you are a man, you will quickly come down and fight me to the death! ”

Seeing that Zhang Fei didn't get to the point after talking for a long time, although Guan Yu also wanted to avenge Liu Bei, he did not forget Gongsun Zhan's explanation before leaving. In order to complete the task as soon as possible, Guan Yu suddenly rode his horse forward and took the topic from Zhang Fei's mouth

"The matter...... It's up to me! Huaxing, I waited for this time to come here on the order of the Holy Lord to recover the iron vein. If you are willing to hand over the iron ore, we will complete the task and leave tomorrow. ”

As soon as these words came out, without waiting for Huaxing's feedback, he saw Zhang Fei on the side with a resentful face, and turned his head to Guan Yu to speak

"Second brother! We're all here, how can we go home empty-handed? No way! If I don't avenge my eldest brother this time, I, Zhang Yide, will never go back! ”

"Third brother, I know you want to avenge your eldest brother, why shouldn't I Guan Yunchang?"

After stroking his beard and sighing lightly, he heard Guan Yu's voice turn and replied in a low voice

"But now is not the right time for you and me to take revenge. Have you forgotten how the lord explained before leaving? If we stay here for one more day, the battle situation in Youzhou will be more dangerous. If the great cause of the Lord is delayed because of your selfishness, will you and I bear the blame? ”

As early as a month ago, as soon as Gongsun Chan received the emperor's edict, he guessed that this must be a trick of the little emperor's envoy.

But in order to avoid being the target of the public as a traitor to the Han family, Gongsun Chan had no choice but to send troops to the village and execute this holy order.
