Chapter 39: Fame and Fame (9)

"Brother Gongming, didn't he know this person before?" Although Han Lie knew that Guan Yu was also from Hedong County, he didn't know that Xu Huang knew him, so he was shocked when he saw him, so he asked curiously.

Xu Huang shook his head and said: "This person became famous as a young man, and he was the closed disciple of Meng Bo, the former hero of Hedong, and later Meng Bo was hunted and killed by the imperial court. ”

"This person's reputation at that time once overshadowed the heroes of Hedong, according to my father, there was a scholar who met with him, saying that this person will be able to be crowned a marquis one day, and he will go down in history in the future."

"Oh, Komeito thinks Xiangshi's words are credible?" Han Lie asked with a thoughtful smile.

"I can't believe it, but according to my father, this person is extremely talented, and he has achieved great sword skills when he was a teenager, and now he is afraid that he has reached the realm of a grandmaster, and this kind of person is a fierce general who is invincible to all people in the world." Xu Huang's words are also enough to see his admiration for Guan Yu.

"Gongming's words are true, not only Guan Yu is unparalleled in the world, Zhang Fei next to him, I am afraid that he is not inferior to this person in the slightest, if he really wants to meet him in the future, he will indeed deal with it carefully." Han Lie nodded and reminded Zhang He Gaolan, who was on the left and right.

"Then you have to ask my double iron halberd to know." Dian Wei replied with a confident smile.

"Old rules, Brother Dian, you and Junyi and Boxin acted separately and searched all the valuable things in the treasury." Han Lie was not distracted by Liu Bei, for him right now, collecting money was the top priority.

"Whoa!" Dian Wei retreated.

"Gongming, you go and gather the rich people in the city, let them sell gold, buy all our property, and preferably exchange copper coins for gold, if they don't agree, you might as well scare them, the value can be lower than the market value and let them make some profits." Han Lie was now carrying a large number of supplies, which was naturally inconvenient to carry, so he was ready to exchange them for gold that was easy to carry.

"Whoa!" Xu Huang nodded and retreated.

Han Lie then came to the wing room in the back hall, just as the doctor came out after bandaging Xu Rong's wounds, Han Lie saw this, so he asked, "How?" ”

"The wound on the chest has been boneless, although there is no fear of life, but I am afraid that it will only take three or five months to recover." In the face of Han Lie's inquiry, the doctor replied truthfully.

"Good work." Han Lie nodded and walked in.

Although he was tired all night, due to the pain of cleaning and bandaging the wound, Xu Rong did not fall asleep, and when he saw Han Lie coming in, Xu Rong's sharp eyes couldn't help but stare at Han Lie: "Why do you want to save me?" ”

"General Xu is a famous general in the world, don't you feel a pity that he died like this?" Han Lie sat down in front of the couch lightly, and said slowly: "If the general dies like this today, I dare to guarantee that in the future history books, there will definitely be a record of Zhonglang General Xu Rong, committed to the traitor Dong Zhuo, and blocked the Kwantung Righteous Army under Xingyang City, and was unfortunately defeated and killed. ”

"Dare to ask the general's name?" Xu Rong frowned, and his tone became weak.

"Han Lie, the word Ziyang, is currently the position of the former general of the Kwantung Coalition Army." Han Lie stood up, bowed and said: "General Xu's name, Lie has been admired for a long time, if the general is willing to leave a useful body, I will arrange for someone to send you back to the sour jujube for a big nutritional injury, but to the outside world, I will say that the general has died in the chaos, and when the general recovers in the future, he will stay for himself, and he will never force it." ”

"Alas, the old man is already over the age and is not confused, it stands to reason that he really shouldn't have too deep a heart of fame and fortune, but why he joined the army at a young age, and he really wants to take off this military uniform, he is really a little reluctant, and since General Han values it so much, what does it matter if the old man sells you this half of his life?" Xu Rong sighed faintly and nodded slightly.

"General Xu will be glad for the wise choice today." Han Lie walked out with an indifferent smile.

Xingyang is worthy of being the county magistrate, the local wealthy family, the flowing oil that is rich from time to time, plus Xu Rong is usually an honest official and strict in governing the army, so the property of the rich families in the city is also quite intact.

This is not Xu Huang with the sergeants, gathered the patriarchs of all clans, under some coercion and temptation, these patriarchs expressed their willingness to take out gold to buy materials, especially when they learned that Xu Huang's selling price was even lower than the market, these patriarchs swept away the sadness just now, but smiled.

Han Lie resold all the surplus food, weapons, leather armor, and copper coins in the army, all valuable materials, and exchanged them for 5,000 gold.

"Gongming, this batch of gold is kept by you personally, and our personal subordinates are in charge of it, so there must be no mistakes." Han Lie couldn't help but swallow his saliva as he looked at the pile of golden light in front of him, this sight was indeed too impactful.

"Hmm." Xu Huang was a heavy person, and although he felt heavy about Han Lie's burden, he did not show any resistance.

"Ziyang, the cost of the war horses in the army is huge, we are afraid that we can't afford to raise them at the moment, I don't know what your plans are, are you going to sacrifice them, or sell them?" Xu Huang thought of the more than 1,700 war horses captured at Bishui Pass, and the 300 war horses captured in Xingyang today, although these war horses were good, but for them at the moment, they were a huge burden, and the food they ate every day alone was more than the 5,000 people in the army at present.

"Dedication? How can it be so cheap. Han Lie shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "It stands to reason that it is the most cost-effective to sell it, but now that the coalition forces are gathered here, if it is sold to the rich families in Xingyang, I dare to guarantee that it will not take two days for these rich families to be killed by the princes of the coalition army, this is more than a thousand good Liangzhou war horses, the market value is only less than 5,000 yuan a horse, if it is transported to Jingxiang in Jiangdong, I am afraid that 8,000 yuan will be rushed to ask for it, so we can't pit the local rich families." ”

"It seems that Ziyang, you already have a plan, so I can rest assured." Xu Huang nodded, for Han Lie for considering the life and death of the local rich family, he directly gave up such a large amount of wealth, and he also had more respect for Han Lie's personality in his heart.

"It's nothing more than an exchange of interests, I'm only going to keep five hundred of these war horses for my own use, and the rest of the 1,500 horses will depend on who has the highest price, and we will sell them to whom." Han Lie smiled faintly, you send someone to send a letter to my uncle, and ask him to tell you all the adults, just say that we are going to sell horses to reward the soldiers of the former army this time.

"Whoa." Xu Huang nodded understandingly.

When the heroes of the Kwantung Coalition Army heard the news that Han Lie was going to sell war horses to them, they all shouted one after another, and Qiao Mao, the Taishou of Dongjun, took the lead and said: "Han Ziyang used our soldiers to establish some small merits today, and he dared to hide the spoils of war and sell them privately, such arrogant people should be dismissed on the spot." ”

"What Yuan Weigong said is very true, this person should be dismissed and the former military power should be taken back." Yuan Shu was already quite jealous of Han Lie's repeated military exploits, and when he saw this opportunity, he immediately fell into the ground.

"Agreed, please make a decision as soon as possible." Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao and immediately jumped out.

Seeing that the princes of the coalition army were one-sidedly dismissed from the post of Han Lie's former army vanguard, Han Fu was about to speak, and the meteor scout horse galloped over: "Qiqi Alliance Leader, the outpost learned that Dong Zhuoyi's son Hu Ben Zhonglang General Lu Bu led 30,000 troops to garrison Tiger Prison Pass, and most of the capital protected Hu Zhen and supervised 20,000 troops to Chenggao, and the soldiers were directed at Xingyang. ”

In the noisy tent, when I heard the news, it fell silent all of a sudden.

"Yuan League Leader, now is the time to employ people, the former army has repeatedly made war exploits, and the dissolution at this time is really not good for the morale of my army, and I hope the alliance leader will think twice." Seeing that no one spoke, Sun Jian, the Taishou of Changsha, came out and said: "The Dong thief army is guarding the pass, and it is better to win if it is not a strong enemy, it is better to oversee the army to attack and lure the enemy out of the pass to fight in the field, or maybe win in a battle." ”

"I'll let you discuss this." Yuan Shao didn't want to attack Luoyang in his heart, this alliance was just to earn fame, and now he is shepherding one side and self-contained, and he has no intention of serving the little emperor.

"What General Wentai said is not unreasonable, now that our coalition army has 100,000 people, if we can fight a decisive battle with Dong Thief's army, we will definitely be able to determine the overall situation in one fell swoop, so why hesitate?" Cao Cao, the general of Fenwu, came out of his head and firmly expressed his support for Sun Jian's proposal, but Cao Cao was weak and outnumbered at this time, and he was somewhat loyal to the Han family in his heart, so he also wanted to use a battle to make great achievements.

"Brother Meng De, this big battle is all over the field, how can you be in a hurry?" Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang saw Yuan Shao giving him a look, and said with a smile: "Besides, we should talk about General Han's horse sale now, as for the Dong thief army, isn't it still in the Tiger Prison?" ”

"What the king said is reasonable, my nephew has already written to explain the situation to me about this horse, please don't misunderstand, the little nephew is by no means trying to sell war horses to you, he just wants to exchange a coin with you to reward the sergeants of the former army." Han Fu also interjected in time: "My nephew's meaning is very clear, that is, all the war horses are exchanged for your lordships by bidding, and you can buy them at a price, the low price is 1,500 yuan, and each family is limited to 300 horses, and the coins obtained will be used for the rewards and pensions of the former soldiers drawn out by various departments after the war, he personally does not want a penny, and is willing to take out all his rank and dedication as a pension for the fallen soldiers." ”

"Han Ziyang, this move is really the style of Gu Zhiren, although Qian is not a rich family, he will definitely give generously." Xuzhou Mu Taoqian listened to Han Fu's explanation and praised it without hesitation.

"The former soldiers fought bloodily, and they made great contributions to Xingyang, and they should be rewarded and beneficial, and I should be a part of this money." The North Sea phase Kong Rong followed suit.

With the beginning of Tao Qian and Kong Rong, the tone of the princes of the coalition army also changed for a while, and the posture of denunciation just now turned into a compliment.
