Chapter 372: Luoyang Trip (3)

Soon, I listened to Huaxing Mao's self-recommendation:

"As long as I personally lead the troops, we can arrive quickly!"

"Huh? Big brother wants to personally lead the troops to suppress bandits? Liu Xie said in surprise.

"That's right!" Hua Xing nodded and replied:

"My brother actually wanted to go to the bandits to save people, but due to the lack of troops, he never dared to move lightly, so as not to startle the snake."

"Not enough troops? What does the eldest brother mean that there are quite a few thieves in this gang? ”

"Well, according to the report of the spies, they have gathered at least 18,000 people in the village, and it is difficult to exterminate them with only a small number of troops from my brother."

"Huh? So many? That's a bit of a hassle......"

Hearing that there were so many thieves, Liu Xie's face also showed surprise:

"Then according to the eldest brother's opinion, how many troops will it take to rescue Concubine Xi?"

After pondering for a while, Hua Xing replied:

"If you only scare the thieves away, the same number of troops is enough. But if it's to save people...... At least about 20,000. ”

"So much?" After hearing what Hua Xing said, Liu Xie's eyes unconsciously flashed a trace of hesitation.

"What's the matter? In order to rescue Concubine Xi, the elder brother is reluctant to even have this little soldier? ”

"No, no! Big brother misunderstood! Soon, I saw Liu Xie waving his hand and explaining:

"It's not that my little brother is reluctant to send troops, I just think it's ...... Belch...... It's a little odd. Big brother, little brother asks you a question, don't be angry...... You don't want to use this as an excuse to borrow troops to save Cao Cao, right? ”

Attaboy!

actually guessed his intentions so quickly, and Huaxing was secretly shocked after hearing this.

But he would not admit it easily, and soon said with displeasure on his face:

"Brother, why do you think that? Big brother really wants to help you save people! If you say so, then forget it, I don't care about this matter, whether my brother and sister are dead or alive, I will never say anything more. ”

In order to express his "indignation", Huaxing deliberately raised his tone when he spoke, which seemed to be extremely aggrieved.

For Liu Xie, Huaxing is currently the only one who knows the whereabouts of Concubine Xi.

Whether or not he can rescue Concubine Ai is all up to him, so Liu Cheng didn't dare to offend easily.

After seeing that the other party was angry, he immediately squeezed out an apologetic smile and hugged his fist at the other party:

"The eldest brother is not angry, and the younger brother just says it casually, not really, not really. So, when is the big brother going to go on the expedition? ”

Hearing the other party's vague permission, Huaxing was secretly happy in his heart, and replied solemnly:

"Of course, the sooner the better, my brother definitely doesn't want Concubine Xiniang to suffer more, right?"

"Yes, yes! What the eldest brother said is extremely true. ”

After nodding in agreement, he heard Liu Xie ask again:

"What if...... I handed over all 20,000 soldiers to my eldest brother, I don't know how sure my eldest brother is that he will save my concubine? ”

"Hehe, brother can rest assured!" Hua Xing patted his chest confidently and replied:

"As long as there are enough troops, I have twelve points of confidence that I will rescue people. All you have to do is wait in the palace for news from me! ”

Before, Liu Xie refused to lend troops to Huaxing, mainly because of insufficient motives.

For the sake of a few picture books, let him offend the terrible Yuan brothers, Liu Xie felt that the gains outweighed the losses no matter how he thought about them.

So although the picture book is good, in order to protect himself, he still chose to refuse.

But the matter of Concubine Xi is completely different from a picture book!

This concubine, who has been with him for five years, is definitely an inseparable existence for him.

So even if he had doubts about the "purpose" of Huaxing's trip, in order to rescue Concubine Xi, even if there was only a glimmer of possibility, he was unwilling to give up.

So after thinking about it for a while, Liu Xie finally agreed to send troops, and stuffed the holy decree and the military talisman into Huaxing's hands:

"Alas! Well, then I'll leave this matter to the big brother! ”

……

Like Hongnong, because he was unprepared before, if he wanted to go out with the whole army, he would have to go out two days later at the earliest.

For this reason, Huaxing had to find an inn to live in.

After sending a letter to Zhang Liao, who was far away in Hongnong, Huaxing had nothing to do, so he went out for a walk.

I was going to visit Miss Zhang Wan, who answered the question for him and sent him and Dong Bai out of the city.

But as soon as he was halfway there, he was stopped by a group of officers and soldiers, saying that Master Fu had invited him to the mansion to talk.

Hua Xing had long expected this, nodded and followed the officers and soldiers to the courtyard of Fuwan.

As the first minister of the dynasty, the courtyard of Fuwan is definitely worthy of the word "magnificent", not only the area is huge, but the decoration is also quite exquisite.

After walking in the courtyard for two or three minutes, I arrived at the parlor of Fufu.

The master Fu Wan had been waiting here for a long time, and after all the subordinates left, Fu Wan hugged his fist at Hua Xing, and said while saluting:

"The old man is ill and it is inconvenient to go in person, so I sent someone to invite the general to come to the mansion to talk about it, and I hope the general is not strange!"

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, being idle is idle, and walking can still be exercised. By the way, aren't your injuries healing? ”

"Alas! I'm older, my body is not as good as it was back then, and it will take some time to recover, cough cough ......"

It's been a few months since he was stabbed, but his injuries have not healed due to his age.

At this moment, not only is he weak and weak, but his face is also much paler than the last time they met.

"If it doesn't work, I suggest you go to Luyuan Village and try Dr. Hua. His medical skills are quite good, and Weiyangjun's athania was what he was optimistic about. Huaxing took advantage of the situation to advertise for Hua Tuo.

"You mean Dr. Hua Tuo, right? Well, the old man has also heard about it, and I heard that this person has excellent medical skills. If it doesn't get better next month, I'll go see him. After nodding gratefully, he turned around after listening to the words:

"By the way, I don't know what is the important matter for General Hua to come to Luoyang this time?"

As soon as the words fell, I saw Huaxing grinning:

"Hehe, what am I going to do, Lord Fu should have known it a long time ago, right? Otherwise...... There's no way you're going to find me on the street, are you? ”

"Hehe, General Hua is really fast-talking, then the old man won't beat around the bush......"

After stroking his long beard twice, he saw Fu Wan put away his smile, stared at Hua Xing and asked:

"On the surface, the general said that he wanted to lead the troops to save people, but he actually wanted to go to Xuchang to rescue Cao Cao, right?"

It is not Liu Xie who is finished, and it is by no means something that can be deceived by just a few words.

Therefore, in the face of this person's questioning, Huaxing did not choose to deny it outright, but asked with a smile while drinking tea:

"If that's the case, I wonder what the adults have to say?"

"For the sake of the Han Dynasty, the old man hopes that the general will stop as soon as possible, and will not introduce the imperial court into the dispute between Yuan and Cao." Fu said with a solemn face.

"What if I refuse to stop?"

"If the general refuses, then the old man will have no choice but to go to the holy advice. I believe that with the old man's incorruptible tongue, he will be able to persuade the Holy Lord to take back his fate. ”

"Alas!".

After hearing Fu Wan's words, Hua Xing frowned slightly, and let out a long sigh in his mouth:

"Lord Fu is worried about setting himself on fire, right?"
