Hua Xiong, who was tied and lying on the ground, laughed loudly and said: "Hahaha... I, Hua, was captured by mistake today, and I admit it. It's because I, Hua, am not as skilled as others. If I want to kill him, I have to scratch him and listen."
It's just a life, isn't it? Eighteen years later, I will still be a good man! It is better to die in the hands of Jiangdong tiger Sun Jian today than to die in the hands of that despicable villain Yuan Shu."
What Hua Xiong said made all the soldiers present feel that Hua Xiong was a very forthright person. It was indeed a pity to kill him. Even Sun Jian admired Hua Xiong's courage to not be afraid of death. One of them looked very ugly at this time.
, that is Yuan Shu.
"Hua would also like to thank General Zuo for not killing him this time." After Hua Xiong said to Zuo Aoran, he raised his forehead, closed his eyes tightly, and said to Sun Jian: "Come on, Sun Wentai." He looked at death as if he was going home.
Look.
Without saying a word, Sun Jian drew his sword and was about to kill Sun Jian, but was stopped by Zuo Aoran: "I know General Sun's mood at this time, but even if you kill Hua Xiong at this time, it will not help.
It was originally a battle between the two armies, and casualties were inevitable. I wonder if I can discuss something with General Sun."
"What's the matter?" Sun Jian asked.
Zuo Aoran hurriedly spoke out what was in his heart. In order to compensate Sun Jian for taking revenge on his general Zu Mao, Zuo Aoran actually wanted to use 3,000 horses from the Northern Karasuma and one fine horse as compensation.
Three thousand northern horses!?
All the princes present were surprised when they heard that the horses from the north were many times better than the horses from the south, and even more expensive. A good northern horse could buy several southern horses, and sometimes it was difficult to buy them.
After purchasing it, Zuo Aoran made a big deal this time.
Of course, Zuo Aoran would not treat the generals who died under Hua Xiong unfairly, and compensated those princes with more than a dozen northern horses for their losses. In the past few years, the development of Liaoxi, Youbei and other areas has already begun to gradually become richer.
Got up.
Zuo Aoran already has two huge horse farms in Western Liaoning and You Beiping. Both are managed by Wuwan and Gongsun Zan. In name, they belong to Zuo Aoran alone. Not only do they produce more horses every year,
There are many horses from foreigners
There were also many seizures. The Zuo family army had been fighting with foreigners for many years. They not only captured foreign soldiers, but also disarmed countless horses, weapons, and dozens of fine horses. In order to get Hua Xiong this time, Zuo Aoran felt that it was a waste of money.
These are still worth it.
When Sun Jian heard what Zuo Aoran said, he was already touched in his heart. What Zuo Aoran said was right. When two armies fight, there will always be death and injury. On the battlefield, either you will die or I will live. How can this happen?
There is a third way!
In addition, Hua Xiong was not captured alive by himself. He had already suffered a huge loss this time. Zuo Aoran dared to exchange so many horses at this time. It was a timely help. How could he not be tempted? In the end, he agreed to Zuo Ao's request.
Ran's request, in this way, he, Sun Jian, not only benefited, but also paid off Zuo Aoran's debt for rescuing him.
Zuo Aoran smiled slightly and said: "I will send someone to Youzhou Youbeiping Racecourse to send horses here."
Zuo Aoran didn't want to give away the tens of thousands of horses in his army to everyone. They were all saddled, stirruped, and shoed. Anyway, it was still early to invade Luoyang, and it would not be less than half an hour later.
.
Although it was a blank check, everyone believed in Zuo Aoran. If Zuo Aoran did not keep his word in front of the 19 princes, then Zuo Aoran would be terrible and would not need to come out to fool around anymore. Since everyone agreed to Zuo Aoran
, the enemy army also retreated back to Sishui Pass, and all the princes temporarily exited the tent and walked to their own camp. Zuo Aoran also led the generals behind him and escorted Hua Xiong to his camp.
As soon as he walked out of the tent, Chen Deng walked to Zuo Aoran and asked, "My lord asked the princes for Hua Xiong. Do you want to persuade Hua Xiong to surrender?!"
Zuo Aoran nodded and said with a smile: "Well, Hua Xiong is as brave as any other general in our army. If this person can use him, our army will have another strong general!" He paused and sighed: "
I'm afraid Dong Zhuo treats Hua Xiong very well, and no matter what I do, I may not be able to really use him?"
"My lord, since Hua Xiong may not necessarily be used by us, if Sun Jian doesn't let Hua Xiong go today, and my lord is bound to win, wouldn't this offend Sun Jian and make Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu laugh on the sidelines?"
Tian Feng, who was standing aside, said.
"Hahaha...Are you offended? I'm afraid we will offend all these princes when they come to this place in the future!" Zuo Aoran said very arrogantly. This is for sure. If we want to win the world, the princes will not be able to do so in the future.
offend.
Returning to Zuo Jiajun's big tent, Zuo Aoran and all the civil and military personnel were there. As soon as he entered the big tent, Zuo Aoran hurriedly ordered his subordinates to invite Hua Xiong up. Zuo Aoran was a courtesy corporal.
It’s reached the extreme!
Hua Xiong was taken into the big tent by the soldiers of the Zuo Family Army. Zuo Aoran hurriedly came to Hua Xiong and said, "Hurry up and untie the general. I really wronged the general." Zuo Aoran's actions made Hua Xiong a little bit.
He couldn't believe it, Zuo Aoran's every move made him feel like he couldn't find Bei.
Originally, Hua Xiong had been thinking about how Zuo Aoran would deal with him, whether he would kill him or let him go. Now seeing how Zuo Aoran behaved like this, Hua Xiong knew that Zuo Aoran wanted to demote him.
For him!
"Everyone knows how brave General Hua is, but he is not talented. I hope General can help Zuo Aoran." Zuo Aoran said straight to the point. The Hua Xiong in front of him may not be a first-class leader in fighting, but his martial arts skills are indeed amazing.
.
Hua Xiong didn't say much, just sighed. Hua Xiong really had nothing to say about Zuo Aoran's life-saving grace today. To be honest, who wants to die when you can live! As the saying goes, it's better to die than to live.
But after considering some things in his heart, Hua Xiong gave up the idea of surrendering to Zuo Aoran.
Hua Xiong sighed and pondered at the same time, and Wen Chou, who was hurting him, cursed and said: "You are really weird. Why are you sighing for a great man? You were so unafraid of death in front of all the princes just now, let's let him
I admire you so much. Now when my lord asks you something, why don't you say a word? You are thinking and sighing at the same time. It's not just whether you surrender or not. Why don't you say something?"
"Bujun, please stop talking and let General Hua think about it." Zuo Aoran hurriedly said to Wen Chou, who was screaming at the side.
When Zuo Aoran opened his mouth, there was nothing he could do about whether he was not afraid of heaven or earth. Wen Chou looked at Hua Xiong who was standing aside. Wen Chou sighed and sat aside, completely forgetting what he said about Hua Xiong.
Already.
"Hey, please give Hua Xiong a death, General Zuo! Today, I would like to thank General Zuo for saving his life. Hua is very grateful. My life was saved by General Zuo. I should have surrendered to General Zuo, but..." Hua
Xiong knelt down and said to Zuo Aoran. There were still some things he couldn't say in his last words. It seemed that he had something unspeakable in his heart!
"Does General Hua care about his old master Dong Zhuo and not surrender to my lord?" Tian Feng, who was standing next to Zuo Aoran, stood up and said. Seeing Hua Xiong sigh just now, he wondered if Hua Xiong had some troubles in his heart.
