"But there is still a question below, and I want to ask the general in person. This woman kept saying that she was the imperial concubine, and that she was forcibly captured by the general...... I wonder if this is true or not? ”

Hearing this, Hua Xing was stunned for a moment, but soon burst out laughing:

"Lord Xun, this woman suffers from paranoia, and before I left, she still said that she was the queen mother. Hehe, do you think this is credible? ”

Hearing that it was a paranoid patient, Xun Yu nodded suddenly and returned Jessica to Huaxing's hands.

……

In the early morning of the next day, as soon as Hua Xing arrived at the military tent, Zhang Liao was the first to run in, with an evil smile, squeezing his eyebrows and saying:

"Master, as the saying goes, a little farewell is better than a newlywed, last night...... You must be exhausted, right? ”

"Childish! The battle is not over yet, how can I have the leisure to indulge? Besides, if it's really ...... Ahem...... What's the matter, just for the teacher's body, how can you be tired? It's really a no-brainer. ”

After glancing at Zhang Liao angrily, he listened to Hua Xing's rhetorical question:

"On the contrary, it's you, since Miss Lu recovered her daughter, your eyes have been swaying on other people's bodies...... You tell me the truth, did you fall in love with others as early as when you were Hongnong? ”

Unexpectedly, this was discovered by the master, Zhang Liao's face turned red in an instant, and while scratching his head to cover up, he opened his mouth to deny:

"I—I didn't, I just saw her suddenly change her appearance, so, that's why she ......"

"Don't pretend! If you like it, you like it, there's nothing to be shy about, look at your twisted look. But I'll be honest with you, since Lingqi returned to women's clothing, many people have asked me about her. If you have an idea, you have to start early, or you will regret it! ”

As soon as these words came out, I saw Zhang Liao say nervously: "Is there really such a thing?" ”

"Of course!"

In order to add some "motivation" to Zhang Liao, Hua Xing lied in a matter-of-fact manner:

"Last night, Zilong made a special trip to find me and asked me who the woman who came back with me was, obviously very interested. Zilong is not only young and promising, but also looks talented, if he starts first...... You can only crouch in the corner and cry! ”

As the so-called concern is chaos, Zhang Liao didn't see that Huaxing was deceiving himself at all.

As soon as the words fell, I heard him say viciously:

"Okay, you Zhao Zilong, you dare to compete with me for Lingqi? No, no! I'm going to fight him right now! After speaking, Zhang Liao turned around and ran out of the tent.

"Stop, stop! You give me back! ”

Seeing that his agitation method had turned into a provocation technique, Hua Xing hurriedly stopped Zhang Liao:

"Wen Yuan, this is ...... No wonder Zilong, don't be impulsive! ”

"He wants to fight with me, who is not to blame him?" Zhang Liao said with a look of resentment.

"Of course it's your fault! Zilong didn't know that you liked Miss Lu, so he took the initiative to investigate, is this to blame him? My Fair Lady and Gentleman, haven't you heard of it? I think your top priority now is not to have trouble with Zilong, but to try to win Lingqi's favor. As the saying goes, shoot the man first and shoot the horse first, and capture the thief and capture the king first, don't you understand this truth? ”

After listening to Huaxing's suggestion, Zhang Liao also felt quite reasonable, and quickly nodded his head:

"Well, that makes sense. However, Zilong's side ......"

"Alas! Zilong's side will be left to me to say, I believe that as long as I hear that you also like Miss Lu, out of respect for you, Zilong will definitely give up this matter. ”

Hearing Huaxing say this, Zhang Liao was relieved and bowed down gratefully:

"Oh, then there is Master Lao, the apprentice is really grateful!"

"What's polite with me? As long as you give me and Zilong two more glasses of water and wine at the time of the wedding. ”

"Definitely, definitely!"

After hearing the word "big wedding", a unique wedding immediately popped up in Zhang Liao's mind.

Full of joy bloomed on his face like an unstoppable spring color......

Seeing Zhang Liao standing on the opposite side and smirking, and after more than half a minute, there was still no intention of restraining, Hua Xing had no choice but to cough lightly and interrupt the other party:

"Ahem! By the way, what are you looking for me? You won't just come to Miss Lu, right? ”

was asked by Huaxing, Zhang Liao immediately returned to reality, and said with a smile:

"Hehe, no, no, I'm here to report to you on military affairs. In yesterday's battle, our army killed more than 20,000 enemies......"

According to statistics, yesterday Yuan's army suffered heavy losses, 20,000 soldiers were killed, 60,000 soldiers were captured, and only more than 30,000 people fled back to Yuan's camp.

The men and horses brought by Huaxing only had a total of 3,000 casualties, and most of them were wounded soldiers, and the situation was much better than that of the other party.

As for the Cao army in Xuchang City, although it suffered great losses at the beginning, it was captured by the Yuan army that attacked the city.

But before Yuan Jun could take these prisoners away, Hua Xing led his troops to kill them.

As a result, most of the captured Cao army was rescued by Huaxing, and Cao Cao's troops rose from more than 3,000 at the worst time to about 30,000.

In addition, Huaxing has just brought back 40,000 reinforcements, and at this moment, there are about 70,000 troops stationed in Xuchang City.

"Well, what's the situation on Yuan Jun's side?" After listening to his own report, Huaxing asked about the situation of the enemy again.

"Due to the great reduction in troops, Er Yuan no longer dares to fight on their own. Early this morning, Yuan Shao led his troops to Yuan Shu's camp. Taken together, there are about 40,000 people. ”

"Oh? Only 40,000 people remain? Hua Xing said with a little excitement: "So, we currently have an advantage in terms of troops?" ”

"No, no!" Zhang Liao poured cold water on Huaxing on the spot:

"Has the general forgotten that in order to block the retreat of Cao's army, Yuan Shu still has 50,000 troops left next to Yingshui. According to the spy report, early this morning, these 50,000 horses have already marched to Xuchang, and it is estimated that they will be able to join Er Yuan before noon. ”

There were 40,000 left, and now there are 50,000, and the total is 90,000, which is still 20,000 more than Cao's army, and Eryuan's troops are still in the upper hand.

"Alas! These two guys, it seems that they will not give up if they don't take Xuchang? After a sigh, I heard Huaxing ask again:

"Then did they perceive the true strength of our army?"

"This ...... The subordinates don't know. But as it stands to common sense, after a night of thinking back and piecing together the information from all sides, they should be able to guess the approximate situation. ”

Zhang Liao's analysis was very correct, after returning to the camp last night, Er Yuan had vaguely felt that the strength of the Chinese army was tired.

This morning, after making a post-war summary with Lu Pu, they were even more sure that Huaxing's soldiers and horses were by no means as many as 100,000, at most 50,000 or 60,000, and it was the two of them who fell for Huaxing yesterday.

Since the opponent's strength was not as large as imagined, Er Yuan gave up the intention of retreating.

While transferring the 50,000 troops guarding the main road to Xuchang, he regrouped and prepared to continue to fight with Cao Cao.
