Chapter 430: The Teahouse
Hua An walked towards the west side of the market, and wondered in his heart, why did he have to talk to her so much about a woman who had never known her in her life, and her identity was also very suspicious?
However, Hua An believed in his instincts, and it could be seen from the woman's face that she was an upright and kind person, and she should not be hostile to herself.
I haven't had any communication with a woman for several months, and now I'm talking to a strange beautiful woman, Hua An's heart has a kind of comfort to say, just like the ice and snow have just melted, and the earth is covered with a layer of green spring, which makes people feel refreshed.
The scenery of the street is still the same, but in the eyes of Hua'an, it has become more warm and organized, making people feel like they are in it, and there is a feeling of home.
In order to see the girl again, Hua An took a few personal soldiers to patrol the streets for a whole morning, but the result made Hua An very disappointed, since leaving the rouge shop, Hua An has never met the girl in the street market, which makes Hua An's heart have a sense of loss.
Returning to the big tent of the Chinese army, Hua An took care of some official business that had to be handled, and continued to wander around the market in the afternoon until the sun set, and then returned to the big tent.
"Big brother." Hua An had just rested in the big tent when Wang San walked in.
"What's the matter?" Hua An looked at Wang San and asked.
Wang San smiled at the corner of his mouth and reported: "Big brother, preliminary news has come back from the direction of Chengdu, the strength of the Shu army guarding the capital is only more than 7,000 people, and the strength is only one-third of our army, which is a great benefit to our army!" ”
"Oh, there are only 7,000 men left in the Shu army in Chengdu. This is consistent with the situation reported by Li Fu and should be true. Hua An nodded and said affirmatively.
"Big brother, if there are only 7,000 people in Chengdu, then what are our troops waiting for? Tomorrow, we can send troops to attack, take Chengdu as soon as possible, and end the battle of exterminating Shu as soon as possible. Wang Sansheng said.
Hua An shook his head and said, "Don't worry, since the military order has been issued, then we will go on the expedition in three days." If the order is changed overnight. It will make the soldiers at a loss, and at the same time, it will greatly reduce the prestige of you and me. ”
"Yes, since the eldest brother said so, our army will wait for two more days." Seeing that Hua'an did not agree to send troops in advance. Wang San had no choice but to obey the order.
Hua An looked at the map on the case. He asked softly, "Wang San." What is the situation in the direction of Luofengpo, and what is the movement of Zhuge Qi and his Wudang Flying Army. ”
Wang San pursed his lips and replied truthfully: "Big brother." The direction of Luofengpo was as usual, and all the Wudang Flying Army stayed there, and it seemed that they had no intention of leaving. ”
When Hua An heard this, he frowned and said softly: "It seems that this Zhuge Qi is still quite cautious, he doesn't trust our army, and he is afraid that he will be ambushed when he passes through Guò City, so he will not move his troops first to observe the shape." ”
"Big brother, we kindly sent food, grass and water, but Zhuge Qi still doesn't trust our army, it's really unreasonable." Wang San couldn't help but be furious.
Hua An smiled and said: "Don't be angry, the so-called soldiers are not tired of cheating, Zhuge Qi is a smart general, how can he completely trust our army because of a little grain and grass?" Rest assured! As long as our army has enough sincerity, Zhuge Qi will definitely not be the enemy of our army, and it may be possible to take the initiative to join it! ”
"I hope so!" Wang San replied softly.

Early in the morning of the second day, Hua An still took a few personal soldiers to patrol the market, one is to see more of the endless crowd in the market, adjust the nervous mood, and at the same time, also want to try his luck to see if he can meet a beautiful woman like yesterday's girl.
The market is the same as yesterday, it is still so lively, even a little noisy, and the people in the city are running back and forth for life, which makes Hua Anzhong feel very emotional.
"The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit." Hua An couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"General, what a coincidence! The slave family happened to pass by, and they saw the general patrolling the streets from afar. Yesterday's woman suddenly appeared in front of Hua An.
Hua An was sighing, and suddenly heard a familiar voice, and his heart was stunned, and he looked at the woman he met yesterday and was looking at him with a smile.
"Haha! Girl, what a coincidence! Hua An grinned and said hello.
"The general is the chief general of the Jin army, but he personally patrols the streets, isn't he afraid of encountering assassins?" The woman reminded.
Hua An smiled and replied: "The girl is too worried, she will practice martial arts since she was a child, and she is not afraid of assassins." As he spoke, he touched the green sword on his waist.
"General, in order to thank you for leading the way yesterday, the slave family wants to invite the general to sit in the teahouse next to me, I don't know if the general is free." The woman opened her mouth and invited.
"Free, free, Miss Zhu personally invited, Ben will naturally be free." Hua An smiled and hurriedly accepted the woman's invitation.
"General Hua, please."
"Miss Zhu, please."
The two of them each said politely, raised their legs and walked towards the teahouse next to them.
Several pro-soldiers behind Hua'an followed, and when they arrived at the door of the teahouse, Hua'an asked the pro-soldiers to wait at the door.
This teahouse can be regarded as the best teahouse in Luocheng, although it is much inferior to the teahouse in Jiankang City, but this is Luocheng after all, and it is also a kind of comfort to be able to drink tea with a beautiful girl who meets in Pingshui here!
"General, please have tea." The woman politely invited Hua'an to tea.
"Oh, thank you, girl, please." Hua An said politely and drank tea with the woman.
Hua'an took a sip gently, and suddenly felt a sweet taste, full of fragrance, this kind of tea is a unique category in Shu, Hua'an has never drunk it before.
"General, the taste of this tea is okay!" The woman asked softly.
"Well, good tea, it's really a fine tea! Thank you for the kindness of the girl, so that Ben will be able to have this blessing. Hua An opened his mouth to thank him.
The woman smiled and said straight to the point: "General, the slave family has been dependent on his father since he was a child, and under his influence, he especially likes to talk about the general trend of the world. ”
"Oh, it turns out that the girl didn't specifically invite Ben to tea." Hua An replied, with a slight sour taste in his words.
The woman smiled and quipped, "If the general likes the taste of this tea, he can bring some more." ”
Hua An smiled and asked, "The girl wants to talk about the general trend of the world, where do you want to start?" ”
"Well, let's start with three points in the world!" The woman said with a smile.
Hua An was stunned for a moment, and said: "The world is divided into three, the girl wants to start from the Three Kingdoms, that era is more than a hundred years ago?" ”
The woman shook her head and said with a smile: "The slave family is not talking about the Three Kingdoms a hundred years ago, but the Three Kingdoms that now occupy the most land in the world, Zhao, Jin and our Shuzhong, the three-legged tripod, and the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu back then, have been maintained for more than 30 years, and now, the general leads the army to the west, I am afraid that the three-legged pattern will be broken." ”
"Hehe, the Li family's regime in Shuzhong has always been weak, and it is much weaker than Liu Bei's regime back then! I can also claim to be one-footed. Hua An said disdainfully.
The woman looked dissatisfied and retorted: "The general is wrong, my Han regime was not weak, but the current emperor, only two years after he first ascended to the throne, he killed a lot of loyal people, causing the soldiers to be centrifuged, so there is today's result, if the army and the people are united, with more than 100,000 troops of my Han Dynasty, the general is only afraid that he will not be able to enter Liangzhou." ”
Hearing this, Hua An nodded, and said: "You are right, the reason why this general marched all the way so smoothly is because the Shu army generals and colonels along the way have surrendered, if not, I am afraid that it will delay a lot of time!" ”
"General, now, the three-legged is no longer stable, once the Li family in Shuzhong is destroyed, the two kingdoms of Jin and Zhao are mortal enemies, and there is no possibility of peace and quietness, if Jin does not destroy Zhao, it will be destroyed by Zhao." The woman said.
Hearing this, Hua An thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "What the girl said has some truth, but the situation in the world today is very different from that of more than a hundred years ago, back then, there were only three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu in the world, and the rest, such as the northern Hulu are extremely weak, and now the situation is different, there is Yan in the northeast, Liang in the northwest, Tuyuhun in the west, Tuoba, Fuyu, and other Zhuhu in the north, the strength is very strong, Yan and Liang, nominally the vassal states of my Great Jin, but they are not controlled by my Great Jin, so today's world, definitely more than three-legged, more than six-legged! ”
"General, small extraterritorial countries such as Yan and Liang can also claim to be powerful?" The woman asked curiously.
Hua An smiled at the corner of his mouth and explained: "The news in Shuzhong is blocked, and the girl probably doesn't know the situation outside!" Now the small countries in the north are rising, especially the Yan State of my Great Jin Dynasty is the most powerful, according to the report of the spies, the soldiers and horses of the Yan Kingdom have reached 200,000, and they are all elite iron horses, and the strength is only afraid that it is not under the Great Jin! Liangguo also has an army of 100,000, which is comparable to Shuzhong, as for Tuoba, Fuyu, Tuyuhun and other departments, the strength is probably more than 50,000, which cannot be underestimated! ”
"Yan Guo already has 200,000 iron horsemen, so many?" The woman looked a little surprised.
After all, the news in Shuzhong is closed, and all the information she can know is a few years ago, and a few years ago, the Yan Kingdom only had 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the rest of the troops had even fewer soldiers and horses.
The woman frowned, looked at Hua An, and said softly: "According to this view, the northern power is like a forest, if the general rashly goes on a northern expedition, even if he completely defeats the Zhao State, he will lose his vitality, and in this way, he will be taken advantage of by the small country behind Huang Que, which can be regarded as a wedding dress for others!" ”
Hua An smiled and said: "So the first thing to do in this general is to develop production, so that the people in Shu can live a good life, and then train elite soldiers, as long as their own strength is strong enough, are you still afraid of the yellow finch behind?" After speaking, he looked confidently at the woman in front of him.
"The general is really high-minded, and the slave family admires it very much, replacing wine with tea, and toasting the general with a glass." The woman raised the teacup and sent it to Huaan. (To be continued......)
