Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 821 People see people's hearts (4)

  Night is everywhere, shrouded in all directions.

  The whining wind sounds like ghosts in the wild screaming non-stop, which makes people feel chills when they hear it.

The soldiers who had been busy for a day all got into the tent one after another, and fell asleep in disorder. As for who snores, who grinds their teeth and farts, and whose feet smell better, I don't have the mind to bother. , There is a decent camp to sleep in, not in the open air, it is already quite content.

  After a day of walking, Hu Zhen also suffered from sore waist and legs.

  After all, I am getting older, and I no longer look like a young man in his early twenties. No matter how hard he is, after a good night's sleep, he can be alive and well the next day. Nothing happens. After so many years, walking through the rain of swords, guns and arrows, how could he not be injured? These injuries are now slowly showing up, reminding Hu Zhen of their existence all the time.

  The most serious thing was a knife in the left chest. At that time, the bone was deeply visible, and the bone was cracked. He almost failed to survive... This was the injury he suffered when Zhang Wen presided over the suppression of the Qiang rebellion, and then...

  Hmph, no more...

  At that time, Taiwei Zhang Wen sent Dong Zhuo to lead 30,000 people to fight against the rebellion of the Qiang Xianling tribe, but the army rations could not keep up. As a result, the Qiang and Hu people gathered troops and surrounded Dong Zhuo in the north of Wangyuan. Hu Zhen and his men raided the Qiang siege several times, but they were unable to break through, and were stabbed so hard that they almost died in Huangquan.

  At that time, Li Ru proposed to build a **** beside the Wangyuan River, pretending to fish to satisfy his hunger. Seeing this, the Qiang people thought that Dong Zhuo's army had a source of food, so they did not dare to take advantage of Dong Zhuo's lack of food to raid the camp. Then, under the cover of the embankment, Dong Zhuo led the army to retreat quietly. When the Qiang people found out and pursued, Dong Zhuo broke the **** again, and the raging river successfully prevented the Qiang people from chasing, and they survived.

   Zhang Wen, who was in the rear, even felt that Dong Zhuo had failed in the battle, so he wrote to the court to pursue his crimes. In the end, Dong Zhuo gave Zhongchang a lot of gold and silver treasures, which smoothed over the matter. As for the soldiers who were injured in that battle like Hu Zhen, naturally there was no reward at all...

  Now, the wound above the left chest is painful, and the dark red scar seems to be telling Hu Zhen something...

Hu Zhen, who had been running for a day, almost jumped out of the injuries accumulated in his youth under exhaustion, sore, numb, swollen and painful, even lying down was a bit uncomfortable, he could only support himself on the table slantingly. With his head in his head, he seems to be sleeping but not sleeping to slow down his spirit.

"I thought I could get some benefits by coming to Luoyang with the grand master, but I didn't expect it to become like this..." Since Hu Zhen couldn't sleep, he couldn't help thinking in his head, "...Luoyang, it's not a good thing The place... I didn't expect to go back to Chang'an, it turned out to be extremely dangerous..."

"The current Xiliang Erlang is no longer the same as when the grand master brought him here. He lost all energy and energy. Xu Zhonglang said that he would rectify and rectify and reiterated the military order. Hehe...but I don't know that the current court is not a grand master either. At that time, the imperial court was gone, and it lost the slightest popularity. It was like a group of ghosts wandering above the main hall all day long, and it was so dark that people were afraid..."

  "...War, hehe, what Xu Zhonglang said is not wrong. Of course, fighting a war is the duty of the generals who lead the army. After taking the salary of the imperial court, we naturally obey the command of the imperial court, but...but ah..."

"...Xiliang soldiers, after this battle, they don't know where they will be placed in the future... Who will care? During this period of time, the price of goods in Chang'an was ridiculously high, and the soldiers were paid a bunch of five baht, but That money is nothing but a pile of scrap copper, you can't even afford a meal, it's useless... people's hearts are lost..."

  Hu Zhen opened his eyes. Although he knew there was no one there, he subconsciously glanced left and right, and then pulled out a scarf from his bosom, which was densely written with small characters.

   When the army marches, it is natural to send scouts, and the Chang'an Forbidden Army has always been stationed in Chang'an City, and rarely goes out of the city to fight any battles, so most of the long-distance scouting is in charge of Xiliang soldiers...

  The scouts on both sides are from Xiliang, so when the fellow met the fellow, naturally there was an extra scarf like this in the hands of Hu Zhen, instead of being handed over to the general Xu Rong.

  Hu Zhen read the scarf over and over several times, pondering over it word by word, thinking about it.

  Who can be trusted?

  Who can rely on?

  Who can pull Xiliang soldiers and Xiliang people out of the muddy swamp-like city of Chang'an, so as not to suffer the disaster of being wiped out?

  Who can understand the suffering of Xiliang people these years, who can know the difficulties of Xiliang people for many years?

   Only Xiliang people can understand all of this.

Hu Zhen sighed, really feeling tired, he just wanted to go home, go back to the place where he straddled his horse and raised his whip when he was young, and returned to the hometown where he was born and raised, but if he is under the control of the current court in Chang'an , even if he wanted to leave, would the imperial court let him go back with peace of mind?

   Or did he agree to work as a small official in Chang'an and end his life like this?

A mocking smile appeared on Hu Zhen's face. These Shandong gentry with long sleeves all day long are probably not very good at fighting, but when it comes to playing tricks, they are all first-class talents. Even Taishi Dong can't play with them, let alone a big **** like himself?

  If I really do this, I am afraid that I will be blamed for all kinds of crimes in three to five days, let alone three or two months.

  Where does this road go?

  Hu Zhen was constantly weighing and pondering in his heart.

   "... Commander... It's late at night, go to bed early, tomorrow you need to light up..." The guards outside the big tent saw the candles still flickering in the tent, and couldn't help reminding Hu Zhen in a soft voice.

"Dianmao, dotmao, yes, I still need to domao...well, I see..." Hu Zhen repeated a few words after hearing the words, then smiled, looked at the scarf again, and put the towel in his hand She stuffed it back into her arms, paused for a while, and said suddenly, "Er Gouzi, come in..."

   "What orders does the commander have?" Hu Zhen's personal guard opened the curtain of the tent in response, entered the big tent, and asked with a bow.

  Hu Zhen's eyes flickered a few times under the light of the torch, pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "Er Gouzi, if you can go home... would you like it?"

   "Of course I would!" Er Gouzi opened his eyes wide and said joyfully without even thinking about it, but he paused for a moment, but then withdrew his smile, "...But can I go back now..."

  Hu Zhen laughed, then stood up and said, "If we can come, we can come back!"

  The night is deep, and the howling wind around is getting louder and tighter...

   Happy New Year everyone!

   …

   …

   New Year is here, and the last batch of post-90s have become real uncles...

   …

   …

   …

   …

   Hehehehe, if you come out to mess around, you will have to pay it back sooner or later...

   I think back when the author Jun was called uncle for the first time...

   That mood, hum...
