The so-called negotiations between the Tiger Army and the Huns were originally a means used by both sides for their own interests. To put it simply, both sides of the negotiation feel that they have earned, and the other party has lost a lot. I feel like I'm a peerlessly smart person, and the other party is a bunch of stupid people. Li Mingyuan was proud of his ability to empty the white wolf, why didn't Touman wake up at night with his clever plan to kill two birds with one stone?

"Hmph, I haven't received any silver or grain from the Han people. Do I blame me? Touman snorted coldly, turned his head and went back to the king's tent. Thoth was left alone outside to gnash his teeth.

When Xiahou Yong and others returned to the city, they found that the city, which was originally unusually cold because of the approach of the Huns, had now become a sea of joy, and a messenger had already sent the good news back.

"Our army has a great victory, Xuanjie Captain Li Mingyuan, and Gui Delang will lead Ma Dayuan to lead his troops to fight bravely, win more with less, and break the enemy by a thousand!" When the messenger shouted this sentence again and again and rushed into the city, all the defenders could not believe their ears, wondering if they had heard it wrong, and after receiving an affirmative answer, the big guy almost went crazy with joy. I didn't think that this was not much to fight, so we beat the Huns down outside the city, and if we had the city as a backing, wouldn't it be easier to fight the Huns. The gloom of many days was suddenly swept away by the joy of victory.

"Godfather, your old buddy is here!" Li Mingyuan's eyes were very good, and he immediately saw the two old partners of Xiahou Yong at the front in the welcoming crowd, General Zhongwu: Ye Pengxin and General Zhuangwu: Yang Xuhui!

"Bastard, bastard. This guy even dared to come over! As soon as Xiahou Yong saw Yang Xuhui, he couldn't help but be angry. This guy doesn't take Lao Tzu in his eyes on weekdays, but he didn't expect to do so much this time, and he dared to search Lao Tzu's Hou Mansion while Lao Tzu was not paying attention. It's really unbearable for uncles and unbearable for aunts!

Li Mingyuan saw Xiahou Yong's grinning appearance on the side, and hurriedly said, "Godfather, calm and calm, let's pay attention to our demeanor." Demeanor! ”

"Personable. Yang Xuhui's bastard took advantage of the lack of manpower in the mansion and led people to forcibly break into the Hou Mansion, saying that he wanted to search for the demons of the White Lotus Sect. The ladies in the house were scared! Xiahou Yong said fiercely.

"What? This bastard is such a big bitch! Li Mingyuan, who had advised Xiahou Yong to pay attention to his demeanor a second ago, his eyes widened when he heard this, and he was even more excited than Xiahou Yong.

"No, I can't. It can't just be left at that. I'll take advantage of people's inattention later. Go over with a knife and cut off that guy's head! Vent your evil anger for the frightened people in the house! Li Mingyuan said as he prepared to draw his knife.

Xiahou Yong on the side hurriedly stopped it. "Are you kid crazy? And said let me calm down, I see that you are more impulsive than I am! ”

Li Mingyuan: "~~~~~~~! ”

After learning of Xiahou Yong's victory outside the pass, the top of the entire Tiger Ben Army was shaken. How many years, how many years has the Tiger Army not had such a glorious record. This is good, Xiahou fought bravely, fought such a big victory in one go, and captured so many prisoners. As a result, all the generals of sufficient rank stationed outside rushed over like piranhas who smelled blood, intending to get a piece of the pie.

"General Du, it's okay not to see you! More and more spirit! Yang Xuhui looked at Ye Pengxin and smiled.

"Where, where, General Yang said with a smile. I see that General Yang's face is not very good, why, hasn't the murderer who hurt Ling Lang been found yet? Ye Pengxin looked at Yang Xuhui and said with a concerned expression.

Ye Pengxin's this is completely a pot that can't be opened, Yang Xuhui has already made a lot of trouble in the city in order to avenge his son, and even Xiahou Yong has been completely offended, but he didn't expect that the bamboo basket was empty. This is not something that ordinary people can afford.

As Xiahou Yong entered the city in a high-profile manner, Yang Xuhui and Ye Pengxin, as the other two high-level leaders of the Tiger Ben Army, naturally stepped forward enthusiastically to greet them and say some auspicious words.

"Master Hou is alive in front of Sun Wu, this battle is enough to go down in history!" When Ye Pengxin said this, his face was not red, his breath was not panting, and he was obviously not ashamed at all.

The sedan chair is carried by everyone, and there is no one who does not like to hear good words. Xiahou Yong is the same.

"Eh, General Ye has won the award, and this official has only made a little effort. I didn't expect the Huns to be so unbeaten, as soon as my tiger and iron horse came out, they were defeated like local chickens and grass dogs, really! Xiahou Yong deliberately behaved very lightly when he said this. But to be honest, he did fight this battle very easily, because the hard battles were all fought by others, and he was only responsible for capturing prisoners.

Xiahou Yong and Ye Pengxin sang and harmonized, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious, which made Yang Xuhui on the side a little embarrassed. In fact, he didn't want to come over, because now Xiahou Yong must be angry. But he learned that his general Ma Dayuan also participated in this battle, so that this great achievement had his share of Yang Xuhui. So he had to bite the bullet, otherwise, Xiahou Yong would not be kind enough to share his piece of the pie.

After some politeness, the sergeants on the side escorted all the Xiongnu prisoners back to the barracks and imprisoned them. After Xiahou Yong glanced at Yang Xuhui, he snorted coldly, and only took Ye Pengxin to talk, leaving Yang Xuhui in place.

Seeing that Xiahou Yong didn't trouble himself, this made Yang Xuhui breathe a sigh of relief. But even if he Xiahou Yong really troubled him, he wouldn't show much cowardice. Anyway, if my son dies, what's the use of climbing even if I climb high? No one will be able to inherit all this from him in the future. If Xiahou Yong really turned his face with him. It's a big deal, everyone will have a real gun, anyway, he is barefoot now and is not afraid to wear shoes.

"Ma Dayuan see the general!" Gao Zhiming took a group of generals back to the Hou Mansion to bandage their wounds and the like, leaving only Li Mingyuan and Ma Dayuan's men still at the scene. Ma Dayuan still respects his boss very much.

"Excuse me, excuse me. Dayuan, well done, well done! Yang Xuhui stepped forward quickly, patted his confidant on the shoulder, and said with great satisfaction.

"General, the losses of the brethren in this battle are very large. A lot of brothers didn't make it back! Do you think it is good to give birth to the brothers who died? Ma Dayuan looked at Yang Xuhui and said impatiently.

Obtaining more pensions for their fallen brothers is something that every conscientious general does. Nothing to fuss about. But Ma Dayuan spoke directly to himself in front of so many people, which couldn't help but make Yang Xuhui a little suspicious of his intentions. Could it be that this kid won a battle and had what thoughts in his heart? Are you planning to seize power with yourself? Yang Xuhui suddenly became wary of Ma Dayuan.

"Well, okay, I know, I'll think about it!" Facing the expectant gaze of Ma Dayuan and Yigan's subordinates. Yang Xuhui thought about it again and again, but in the end he couldn't give an accurate answer.

For Yang Xuhui's performance, all the surviving soldiers felt a trace of dissatisfaction. They fought desperately on the front line, so many brothers fell, but now they have such an attitude from above, which really makes them feel chilled.

"Ma Dayuan. You take the soldiers back to the camp first! Yang Xuhui scrupled after glancing at this former subordinate. He turned around and left without looking back. He still has to grind with Xiahou Yong again and earn some credit for himself.

Yang Xuhui's ruthlessness made Ma Dayuan, a seven-foot man, quite sad, he was his confidant, and he made such a great contribution but only got such a few words that were not painful. It's too impersonal.

"Old horse. It seems that you generals are really not good. What a lord who is completely mean and unkind! Li Mingyuan has always had no good impression of Yang Xuhui, and when he seized such an opportunity this time, he would naturally find a way to hit him.

The four irons of life. One of them is that they have carried guns together, and now Ma Dayuan and Li Mingyuan have not only carried guns together, but also fought together, so the two are not rivals when they first met, but have a sense of heroism and heroism.

"Captain Li, our general is quite good on weekdays, mainly because he lost his beloved son this time, so his emotions fluctuate a little!" Yang Xuhui didn't look like he had lost face in front of outsiders, so he said hard-mouthed.

Li Mingyuan smiled slightly, didn't break it, patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, don't say it, I understand, if you have anything to help with, come to me in the future!" ”

A war does not end with a few hundred dead and wounded, let alone between two peoples. Although Li Mingyuan showed his handsome talent this time, it did not have much impact on the whole war. It's just a slight boost to the morale of the Tiger Army and ordinary people.

In the Hou Mansion, Gao Zhiming and the others were immediately indignant when they learned that someone had trespassed into the Hou Mansion. Looking at Liangzhou, within a radius of 100 miles, there are few people who are qualified to enter the Hou Mansion, but now it is good, someone actually checked the Hou Mansion, and he turned against him!

"Old lady, if I take my brothers and go and demolish Yang Xuhui's general's mansion for him!" Gao Zhiming took the initiative to ask.

"What's the use of demolition? It's boring, if you want me to say, let's just burn him with a fire! "Gao Zhiming is violent, but there are obviously people who are more violent than him.

The old lady is the old lady after all, and she is still used to being cautious. She stopped the angry generals and asked everyone to go back and rest first, and then discuss when the Hou Ye came back.

"Hey, Zhiming, what about Li Mingyuan? Why didn't he come back with you? Mrs. Xiahou Bin hugged the little marquis and said suspiciously.

"Yes, yes, what about Mingyuan's stinky boy?" The old lady said with some concern.

Gao Zhiming smiled honestly, "Old lady, madam, you two don't have to worry, Brother Li, he's fine, the Huns didn't hurt him, we came back first, he was probably called by the Hou Ye to discuss matters!" “

Hearing this, the two masters of the house were relieved.

"Hey, I don't know what Lu Dao Yong'er thinks, this township test is coming, he doesn't let Mingyuan study at home to prepare for the exam, and let him go out to fight with the Hun barbarians, if there is anything else, then how can it be good!" Lao Taijun is still very concerned about letting Li Mingyuan participate in the township examination.

"Mother, you don't have to worry, Mingyuan is a smart kid, he must know it in his own heart, but I'm afraid that he is already confident!" Madame comforted.

"I hope so!" The old lady shook his head and sighed. She hopes so much that there will be a high-level scholar in her family, and the martial artists in this room are really not very beautiful.

In Xiahou Yong's headquarters, the atmosphere was very delicate. Although this victory was not a great victory in destroying countless enemies, the wonderful thing was that it successfully captured many Hun prisoners, and it was alive. It's a very rare thing. For decades, although the Tiger Ben army often fought against the Huns. But almost no Hun captives have been caught, and even if there were, there were only a few, and there had never been such a large number of them as today. This is not a human being, this is a military merit, this is a lot of rewards!

"Master Hou, what are you going to do with these Huns?" Ye Pengxin couldn't bear it. As one of the three giants of the Tiger Army, this victory can be said to have no part of him. The first to engage the enemy were Xiahou Yong and Yang Xuhui's people. Later, it was Yang Xuhui who seized the opportunity and took the initiative to lead the army to reinforce at risk. So take stock of this credit. Xiahou Yong must take the lion's lead. Yang Xuhui's subordinates also participated. So definitely drink some broth as well. But the problem is that Yang Xuhui just copied Xiahou Yong's home, and according to Xiahou Yong's temperament, I'm afraid he won't be able to speak so well.

"What else can I do. Of course, all of them are escorted to the capital and let the emperor send them down! Xiahou Yong's face was taken for granted. All the generals were in a state of flux. looked at Xiahou Yong's eyes a little hotter.

Dahua military generals will move upward. One is to rely on seniority, and the other is to rely on military merit. Of course, if there is enough backstage. The first two can be ignored. But most of the generals climbed up by the first two, after all, there were only a few thighs that could make them hug.

Some, maybe military merit depends on strength to earn, and it is necessary to risk your life, but if you don't have military merit and want to get through the qualifications, it's too difficult, maybe you will still stand still after getting mixed up to the bottom. Therefore, Xiahou Yong's recital to the Ministry of War this time shows his value. As long as you add your name to it, let the emperor see it, and when he is happy, he may move his official position up. This is really a piece of fat for the generals of the border army.

Ye Pengxin pretended to smile calmly, then looked at Yang Xuhui and said meaningfully, "I heard that General Yang Yang and Hou Ye had a little conflict!" ”

Yang Xuhui, who had just sat down, almost slipped off his chair when he heard this, trying to stabilize his mind. Yang Xuhui glared at Ye Pengxin angrily, his hands clenched tightly, and his muscles burst out. The huge body trembled slightly. Ye Pengxin said this in front of so many generals, and the fool knew that he was trying to sow discord.

Yang Xuhui privately led troops to search the Hou Mansion, and the generals present basically heard of it, but the parties involved were not perverted, so they naturally wouldn't meddle in things. But as soon as Ye Pengxin opened his mouth like this, the problem suddenly became complicated. Originally, Yang Xuhui could have solved this matter privately with Xiahou Yong. In this way, the problem is put on the surface. If Xiahou Yong doesn't come up with some means, it will be a big blow to his prestige.

"General Ye, you are a little decisive when you say this. The Marquis of Yumen and I have always cooperated sincerely to unite and defend against the enemy. How can there be any contradiction? Yang Xuhui glanced at Xiahou Yong with fear, and then said calmly.

For Yang Xuhui's statement, the generals present did not agree very much. You will cooperate sincerely with Yumen Hou, who will believe it! It's good that you two don't do it right.

"Well, General Yang is right. Now that the enemy is invading, we must stop messing with ourselves, we must unite as one! Xiahou Yong didn't expect Ye Pengxin to provoke a conflict between himself and Yang Xuhui on this occasion. This made him very meaningful, and in his impression, these two people should smell like each other.

failed to provoke the contradiction between Xiahou Yong and Yang Xuhui, which made Ye Pengxin a little disappointed. However, he is not a fool, if he does not succeed once, he will never risk offending Xiahou Yong a second time.

"Alright, let's get down to business. I think the two biggest contributors to the success of this battle are Li Mingyuan, the captain of Xuanjie, and Ma Dayuan, the general of Guidelang. It was because of their heroic battles that they were able to successfully delay the Huns and buy precious time for my encirclement! So I'm going to ask the court for the two of them! Do you have any comments? Xiahou Yong looked around at everyone before he spoke.

Naturally, no one would refuse this proposal. There is no doubt about it.

"No opinion, Master Hou is notoriously fair and just, for your decision, I support it unconditionally on behalf of all the officers and men of the Right Army!" Among the people present, the happiest was Yang Xuhui, he didn't expect Yang Xuhui to be so generous, he didn't even have a personal vendetta, and he gave himself a stump in this matter.

"Hmph, Ben Hou has always done things and not people! If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have a fault, you will be punished! You haven't been following me for a day or two, you should know who I am! "Xiahou Yong is not interested in Yang Xuhui's sycophancy.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Yang Xuhui's fart was not filmed, and the horse's hooves went up, which made him feel very bored. The generals also secretly laughed in their hearts.

Compared with the vast majority of generals of the border army, Xiahou Yong is indeed a very rare figure. will not deduct military salaries, and will not occupy the military merits of his subordinates! Having such a commander is the greatest blessing for the Tiger Army.

Xiahou Yong chose to attribute the great merit to the two generals who fought bravely to kill the enemy, which meant that the generals' idea of wanting a piece of the pie was in vain. Everyone present suddenly felt embarrassed.

"Since everyone has no opinions, this matter is settled. Later, I will arrange for people to escort the captives to the capital and present them to the emperor! After Xiahou Yong finished speaking, he picked up the teacup and began to drink tea. This is synonymous with send-off in officialdom.

Everyone left, only Yang Xuhui and Ye Pengxin did not move, and in the huge headquarters, the three giants of the Tiger Ben Army were thinking about their own thoughts, with an unpredictable smile on their faces. (To be continued......)
