Chapter 61: That Feeling, Leverage

"Count Ma Chao's acquaintance, otherwise, if you don't beat his out, count him clean."

Hua Xiong laughed arrogantly.

"Let's go, let's go see how Gao Shun is doing."

Of the 50,000 soldiers of the wolf army, 20,000 of them were brought by Hua Xiong to guard the city gate.

The remaining 30,000 soldiers, led by Gao Shun, launched an attack on the armies of Zhang Ji and Fan Chou.

The four-man rebellious army added up to nearly 70,000 people.

In addition to the two subordinates of Li Dao and Guo Yan, who have been killed, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou combined, there are still 30,000 people.

But how can the combat effectiveness of the two of their troops be compared to the wolf army?

The war was one-sided, and Zhang Ji and Fan Chou were defeated.

Gao Shun's trap camp seized the opportunity to break into the enemy's tent in one fell swoop, killing Zhang Ji and Fan Chou.

The war is over in a flash!

Although the war took less than half a day.

But it took two days to clean up the battlefield.

It wasn't until the third day that Hua Xiong sent someone to inform Ma Chao and let him enter the city to meet.

Ma Chao came to the palace with a nervous mood.

He had thought that there would be heavily guarded guards waiting for him in the palace.

But to his surprise, the people standing in the hall were all ministers of the court.

They all looked at Ma Chao with curious eyes.

At this moment, the eunuchs on both sides said in a loud voice,

"Your Majesty has arrived at ......"

Everyone hurriedly saluted Emperor Liu Xie.

Liu Xie, who was on the dragon chair, said excitedly,

"Wen Hou eradicated the four Li Dao who rebelled and made great contributions, how do you think Aiqing should be rewarded?"

"The minister thinks that Wen Hou should be named a general."

Yang Zan stood up.

"Hehe, the minister feels that the position of general is not enough to reward Wen Hou."

Jia Xu said slowly.

"The position of general is already the highest reward, and Wen Hou should be content."

Shi Sun Rui said lightly.

He sang and harmonized with Yang Zhan, the purpose was very simple, that is, he didn't want Hua Xiong to be too powerful.

But they forgot about it.

A few days ago, when Li Dao rebelled and arrested them all, how did they expect Hua Xiong to save them.

"How to reward Marquis Wen, I said it doesn't count, and the ministers also don't count. It still depends on His Majesty's will. ”

Jia Xu smiled.

Everyone looked at Emperor Liu Xie.

Liu Xieluo groaned and said softly,

"Feng Wenhou is the master, you can carry weapons when you enter the court, you don't need to salute when you see me, you can also give a seat."

In addition to this, there is a bounty of gold, silver, and jewelry.

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was dumbfounded!

Liu Xie's reward for Hua Xiong is exactly the same as Dong Zhuo before!

But Dong Zhuo was powerful and forced Liu Xie to reward him.

This time, Liu Xie took the initiative to propose it.

What does Your Majesty think?

It was not easy to get rid of Dong Zhuo, and a Huaxiong was going to emerge again?

Even more angry belonged to the scholars Sun Rui and Yang Zhan.

They just wanted to cry without tears.

His side worked hard and didn't want Hua Xiong to take power.

But they didn't expect that Liu Xie would want to promote Huaxiong to the status of Dong Zhuo!

"Your Majesty, you have to think twice!"

Yang Zan hurriedly persuaded.

"I've thought twice, so be it."

Liu Xie said in a deep voice.

Seeing that Liu Xie had already made up his mind, Yang Zan and the others had nothing to do.

After all, the ministers who are now loyal to the Han family have already died.

Wang Yun, who took the lead in their group, also resigned and stayed at home.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"

Hua Xiong glanced at Yang Zhan, who was dejected, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

How can you stinky brothers know about my relationship with Your Majesty?

Although they have not carried guns together, they have watched the movies of Teacher Cang and Teacher Wu together, and they can be regarded as having been in the same window together.

That feeling, leverage!

After the end of the court.

Hua Xiong called Ma Chao to his house.

Here, Ma Chao met his father Ma Teng.

"Father! Are you alright? ”

Ma Chao stepped forward excitedly, held Ma Teng's hand, and asked with concern.

Ma Teng looked a little haggard, but his complexion was not bad.

He waved his hand and smiled, "I'm fine." Wen Hou didn't embarrass me. ”

Hua Xiong was on the side, watching the father and son recognize each other.

thought to himself, although Ma Chao was a little ruthless in history, but now it seems that he is still a filial son.

Well, it's worth soliciting yourself.

"Ma Teng, Ma Chao, do you know why I called you here today?"

Hua Xiong asked slowly.

Father and son looked at each other.

Ma Teng arched his hand and asked, "I still hope that Wen Hou will make it clear." ”

"Ma Teng, there are two paths in front of you now."

"Either you surrender to the court, make you the Marquis of Huaili, and enter the court as a guard captain."

"Either your Ma family will be identified as a chaotic minister and thief, and you will be dead."

Faced with Huaxiong's conditions, Ma Teng said without hesitation,

"The minister has always been the most loyal people of the Han Dynasty, and he is willing to obey the arrangement of the imperial court!"

"You know each other. But I have to tell you, I named you the Marquis of Huaili, but I admire you, you know what I mean. ”

Hua Xiong glanced at Ma Teng meaningfully.

Ma Teng came to his senses in an instant, and hurriedly knelt down towards Huaxiong.

"Wen Hou rest assured, from today on, Ma Teng swears allegiance to Wen Hou!"

"That's pretty much it, get up."

Hua Xiong nodded with satisfaction, and glanced at Ma Chao next to him.

"Oh yes, go back and let your son Ma Chao, nephew Ma Dai, and Pang De come to work for me."

"No problem!"

Ma Teng smiled and nodded in agreement.

……

Ma Teng, Ma Chao, father and son, returned to the mansion rewarded by Huaxiong.

"Father, now that you've escaped, why don't we lead the army away?"

Ma Chao suggested.

"Wen Hou treats me well, why should I leave?"

Ma Teng gave his son a strange look.

He was in Guanzhong and Xiliang before, and he could only be regarded as a warlord leader.

This time, he was captured alive by Hua Xiong, but he didn't expect to be blessed by misfortune, rewarded by the marquis, and became a big official.

He was reluctant to leave.

"Meng Qi, didn't you hear what Wen Hou meant today? He has great ambitions, if Wenhou achieves great things in the future, we will have the merit of following the dragon. ”

Ma Teng's words are serious and authentic.

"Father, why can't we do great things ourselves?"

Ma Chao pouted.

The young man was arrogant, and he was unwilling to surrender to Hua Xiong.

"Shut up! I'll never mention this later! ”

Ma Teng looked at Ma Chao with a serious face.

"From tomorrow onwards, you will report to Wen Hou honestly."

"Yes."

Ma Chao nodded listlessly and agreed.

……

Hua Xiong finished the affairs and accompanied Wei Yiyi for a while, then returned to the room and called out the system.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing Li Dao and gaining five hundred prestige points!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing 10,000 rebels and gaining 10,000 prestige!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for quelling the rebellion and gaining five thousand prestige!"

Li Dao's army of four people, although it totaled nearly 70,000.

But most of them fled or surrendered, and only about 10,000 people were killed.
