If a man should die in the wilderness, and bury his ears with a horse leather shroud, how can he lie in bed and be evil in the hands of his sons and daughters?

What Ma Yuan said at the beginning is a lifelong dream for any general who is eager to make contributions, a man joins the army, and if he wants to die, he will die on the battlefield, but he will not want to live in the field.

Zhang Huan is naturally the same as an old general, if it weren't for him, as a group of foreign courtiers, seeing Dou Wu, Chen Fan and other party members being killed, knowing that he was at odds with the eunuchs, so he was imprisoned in the field. If he can learn from Duan Cheng, who doesn't care about his political position, and join the eunuchs, he will definitely be a high-ranking official now, and realize his dream of dying on the battlefield as a general.

"Shroud of Horse Leather...... Horse leather shroud ......" Zhang Huan muttered to himself, looking at it as if he was sad, as if he remembered many past events, quite moved.

Seeing Zhang Huan like this, Fu Quan was overjoyed in his heart, and said again: "The younger generation has a word, I hope the general knows that for the younger generation, the government and the opposition are for private affairs, and the border military is for the public." Those who serve the public are for the benefit of the country and the people, and do not care about personal interests. After speaking, Fu Quan paused for a moment and continued: "Since Mu Zongxiao and the emperor, the Han Dynasty attacked the Northern Xiongnu in the north, broke it, Beidan Yu fled, and since then Xianbei and the weak Yi rose, swallowed the Xiongnu's hometown, occupied its herdsmen, and then repeatedly invaded the Han Dynasty. As a Han general, how can the general let the Han be threatened by this tiger and wolf, if so, how is it different from a coward? Today's Xianbei civil strife, if the general should not be in office, he will only blindly abolish the public because of private affairs, which is not the work of the Han generals. ”

When he said this, Fuquan specially no longer called Zhang Huan Zhang Gong, but called him a general, hoping to resonate with Zhang Huan, and the words were sincere. Fu Quan bluntly said the trouble of Xianbei, Zhang Huan could not not agree to the imperial court because he hated the eunuchs, because this was not the work of an excellent general and courtier.

Moreover, as early as the Han Dynasty and Emperor Yongyuan, after the Han army defeated the Northern Xiongnu, it was ordered to flee, and the remaining Xiongnu hometowns were occupied by the Xianbei people, and the Xianbei gained power, and later integrated and unified, and began to invade the Han in the south. Because the attention of the court is on the rebellion of the Qiang people, so that they are unable to subdue the Xiongnu, resulting in the suffering of the people on the three sides for decades, it can be said that the Han and Xianbei have a feud, Zhang Huan If he is still thinking about the reuse of eunuchs by the court at this moment and the implementation of the party, it is obvious that this should not be a matter that a Han general should do.

"This is not the ...... of the Han generals" Zhang Huan muttered to himself again, and then seemed to have figured out something, and sighed: "There are more than 70 servants in vain, but it is not as good as a child to see through, that's it, that's it, the two of you, please go back, and as soon as Your Majesty's will arrives, the servant will be edicted immediately." ”

Suddenly, Fu Quan and Jia Xu glanced at each other, both saw the excitement in each other's eyes, and then saluted together: "General Gaoyi!" We admire it! ”

Subsequently, after some small talk, Fu Quan and the others left, after all, they had already obtained Zhang Huan's consent, and they didn't need to stay for a long time, it was better to feel Duan Cheng's side as soon as possible, and to join the Han army.

Looking at the figures of Fu Quan and Jia Xu who were leaving, Zhang Huan's old face seemed to have a hint of a smile, and that smile seemed to reveal countless reliefs, probably as if he had let go of some obsession in his heart.

"My lord, do you really want to do this?" Zhang Zhi stepped forward and asked carefully, as sons of man, they naturally understood why their father had obviously reached Jiuqing, and he could ascend to the third prince as long as he survived for a few years, but he gave up this opportunity and became an enemy of the eunuchs.

"I am a Han general, since I died on the battlefield, horse leather shroud, you two should remember, this time I should be Shi, not committed to the eunuch, only for the court to destroy Xianbeier, once successful, will resign to return to his hometown, the court should be rewarded are refused, if I die on the battlefield, you two should deal with the matter behind me for me......" Zhang Huan replied with a persistent face, and even left a farewell similar to the last words, although the Han army has not yet started a war with Xianbei, but Zhang Huan already knows in his heart, this war to destroy the country, once opened, if he succeeds to the Liangzhou assassin history, when the time comes, he will definitely be like Duan Cheng, go into the battlefield to fight, and when he enters the battlefield, he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, so he naturally has to explain what happened behind him in advance.

Zhang Zhi was shocked when he heard the news, and hurriedly cried: "My lord, don't talk nonsense, the imperial court recruits the lord to assassinate the history of Liangzhou, as long as the adult sits in the town, it is convenient, this can make the adult suffer?" ”

"The affairs of the soldier are unpredictable, and we should know in the future." Zhang Huan glanced at his eldest son and sighed secretly, he was the same as his second son, who is now serving as a waiter of the Yellow Gate in Beijing, he is biased towards literature and does not know military affairs, so he naturally can't see that once the war of destroying the country starts, the soldiers of the three sides will definitely go out of the fortress together, how can he, the assassin of Liangzhou, still be able to sit in the rear safely at that time?

However, Zhang Huan and Zhang Zhi sighed here, but some people didn't know, only to see Zhang Meng, who had been peaceful, suddenly walked up to Zhang Huan and said loudly: "My lord, as a son of man, I can't bear to see my adults suffer on the battlefield, and I am willing to go to Liangzhou with my adults." ”

In the words, revealing this thick choked tone is touching, but if someone sees a trace of cunning in Zhang Meng's eyes, they will know that Zhang Meng's willingness to accompany his father is more because he wants to go to the battlefield. At this moment, what he thinks most about is that he will also go to the battlefield, and then make a name for himself and make meritorious achievements, so that when he has a certain amount of military merits, he can humiliate the Fuliuchuan who looks down on him, and he can only say that the bear child will only rush whimsically.

"Idiot! Idiot! If you have this filial piety, you will be content for your father! Zhang Huan stroked his long white beard, nodded with a smile, just wanted to agree to his son's wishes, and then thought of something, suddenly woke up, and quickly changed his words: "You can study at home, the battlefield is dangerous, don't come nonsense!" After speaking, Zhang Huan looked at his eldest son Zhang Zhi and said, "You have to keep an eye on your brother carefully, don't let him walk around." ”

Zhang Zhi first didn't understand what his father meant, and then suddenly remembered his younger brother's divination prophecy that "he will definitely give birth to a man, return to Zibang, and end up in this building", and quickly nodded: "No!" It will make them read with peace of mind! ”

"Good!" Zhang Huan responded, at this moment, he rarely showed a satisfied smile to his young son Xi Wen, after all, it is a matter of life and death of his own child, not to mention that he is still a young son born of old age, naturally he is very concerned, he doesn't want to send a black-haired person with gray hair, after all, he can't let Zhang Meng go to Liangzhou, otherwise he can't say that Zhang Meng will die and the county governance tower of Wuwei County, Liangzhou.

In the middle of Emperor Yongyuan, the general Dou Xian sent the right lieutenant Geng Kui to defeat the Xiongnu, and Beidanyu fled, so Xianbei moved to his place. There are still more than 100,000 remnants of the Huns, all of whom call themselves Xianbei, and Xianbei has gradually flourished.
