Chapter 261: Selfishness

"What? Killed a hundred enemy monks?" Hua Xiong had just changed his armor and changed into a black robe, wearing a wide cloak, and was closing his eyes to recuperate. Suddenly, he heard Li Su report that Ma Fan had entered the customs with the trapping camp, and killed hundreds of local monks on the way here, and when he heard the news, Huo opened his eyes.

"Yes, General. Moreover, according to the people below, there were about 700 of them, and none of them were wounded! There were only 700 people in the trapped camp, so it seems that they should not have suffered much damage. Li Su reported back according to the information he had gotten.

"I'm afraid there are not even a hundred monks attacking our rear! Hua Xiong said angrily.

"I'm afraid this is true, the place of battle they reported is not far from the pass, I sent someone to confirm, and the people below came back to report that although most of those corpses were incomplete because of the fierce battle, there should be close to the corpses of a hundred people. And in the past, our people would be ambushed as soon as they got out of the pass, but today they didn't encounter any monks, and it seems that even if they didn't kill a hundred enemy monks, they would kill a hundred enemy monks. And there must have been a few of these hundred people who harassed the monks behind us. Li Su replied.

Hua Xiong said: "I've heard of the trapping camp, but it's just a group of grass robbers who have taken refuge in them, because everyone can practice these grass bandits, so Xiang Ye spent a lot of resources to arm them, but the cultivation of these people is actually not too high, this trapping camp is stronger than ordinary troops, it's okay to kill ordinary people, and the stronger monks are not opponents at all."

According to the information I got a few days ago, the strength of those monks harassed in the rear is not weak, how can these grass robbers have such the ability to kill them?"

Li Su said: "The new boss of this camp, Ma Fan, is not weak, you and I have seen it at Xiangye's banquet that day, and it seems that even Lu Bu is not defeated by this person, so I think as long as he makes a move, it is not surprising that the enemy's monks are invincible." ”

Hua Xiong said suspiciously: "These people are monks, not ordinary people, it is easy to defeat them, but it is not easy to kill, and there is more than one of these monks, so the difficulty left behind is greatly strengthened, why were they all killed?"

Li Su didn't answer, and a hint of cold murder flashed in Hua Xiong's eyes: "Although I broke Hu Zhen a few days ago, and the rear was harassed by the enemy again and again, I feel that the enemy didn't know what happened in the past two days, and he lost his sharpness, and the defeat was only in front of him. ”

After Li Su heard Hua Xiong's words, he said: "Now everyone under the Xiangye's account knows that this Ma Fan is Li Ru's person, and Ma Fan must have been instructed by Li Ru when he came here." Li Ru assists Xiang Ye in dealing with various things, and he has many eyes and ears in the army, so he naturally knows all the big and small things in our army, and he must also know that the enemy's defeat is just around the corner, so he will send Ma Fan to lead the camp at this time, obviously to grab the credit!"

As soon as Li Su's words fell, Hua Xiong suddenly slapped the table with his big hand, and the wooden table suddenly shattered, and Hua Xiong scolded loudly: "Li Ru dares to act like this, it's really against the sky." Everyone is afraid of him Li Ru and flatters him everywhere, but I, Huaxiong, am not afraid of him, and I will make this Ma Fan child look good today. ”

After listening to Hua Xiong's words, Li Su said with a sad face: "After all, Li Ru is the son-in-law of Xiangye, and he also has some talent, and he has made many achievements over the years.

Although he was a little unwilling, I saw that the general still recognized this tone, sold him to face like everyone else, and gave this great merit to Ma Fan, a kid. ”...,

Hua Xiong snorted coldly: "Xiangye's body is still strong, and it is not a problem to live for two or three years, so how can I say that I am an heir at present." Even after Xiangye leaves, this huge foundation may not be Li Ru's turn to inherit it. ”

Li Su shook his head and said: "Although this is the case, most of the people under Xiangye's command have been bought by Li Ru, and if this continues, I am afraid that in a few years, Xiangye's subordinates will be Li Ru's people, and it will be difficult even if Xiangye does not want to make Li Ru his heir." ”

Hua Xiong said: "Hmph, how can Xiang Ye be so easy to fool? Li Ru's actions are all in the eyes of Xiang Ye, Xiang Ye already knows that Li Ru is gloomy and has bad intentions, and he is already guarding against him."

Don't you see that now Xiang Ye has deliberately transferred the military power to a certain family and Lu Bu's hands, and this time Li Ru said bad things about me behind his back, didn't Xiang Ye listen to him revoke my position as commander?

Look, as long as after some time, when Lu Bu and I clean up the troops separately and clean up Li Ru's people, after the military power is consolidated, Li Ru will not be able to turn the sky even if he has great ability. When the time comes, let alone inherit the throne of the prime minister, I'm afraid it's hard to say whether he can even save his life. ”

Li Su secretly said in his heart: "Huaxiong is really stupid, I just showed him for a few days, and I reported everything to him in the past few days, and completely obeyed his command, he regarded me as his confidant, and said such things to me."

Judging from Dong Zhuo's recent actions, I feel that Dong Zhuo is wary of Li Ru, Hua Xiong is Dong Zhuo's absolute confidant, and now that he says so, then this matter should be true.

But Dong Zhuo's actions are so big, and Hua Xiong's work is not secretive, with Li Ru's thoughts, I am afraid that he has already known that Dong Zhuo has been on guard against him, and he is not prepared. The reason why I can't see Li Ru making any big moves at the moment is probably because he thinks that it is not yet time to make a move.

Hua Xiong is stupid, it is not difficult to obtain military power from his hands, but it is not so easy to change people, if I am in Li Ru's position, I am afraid that I will also choose to put the army in Hua Xiong's hands. Dong Zhuo handed over most of the military power to this person, but he was entrusted to him, if Huaxiong was Dong Zhuo's successor, then his foundation would have to fall into the hands of Li Ru sooner or later.

Originally, with Li Ru's talent and his contributions over the years, the prestige he established in Dong Zhuo's army, it was most suitable to inherit Dong Zhuo's great cause. With Li Ru inheriting Dong Zhuo's foundation, I am afraid that the great cause of the Xiliang Army will be able to go further in the future.

However, Lu Bu and I are fellow villagers, and I have been assigned to Lu Bu's side early. Even if I really take refuge in Li Ru, he will definitely not dare to believe me, if he is really on the throne, I don't want to talk about his current status, maybe it is difficult to say whether he can even save his life and family.

So for my own sake, I can only go one way to the black, and I will do my best to assist Lu Bu in ascending to the top. Hua Xiong has a heavy army and is trusted by Dong Zhuo, but he has a little disagreement with Li Ru, but he must make good use of it and try to expand the contradiction between him and Li Ru. ”
