"promise!"

At night, after patrolling the city defenses, Xia Houshang returned to the mansion. Without even taking off his armor, he slumped down on the soft couch exhaustedly, drank a few sips of tea, and began to close his eyes to rest his mind, frowning all the time. With a big pimple!

Recently, Xia Houshang has mobilized troops and horses to strengthen the defense, and has hoarded a large amount of food and grass, posing as if he is guarding the city, but who should be guarded against, Xia Houshang himself can't tell!

The two armies marched hand in hand, a fierce battle was inevitable, and the battlefield was right under the city of Luoyang. It was impossible for him to remain neutral all the time. He had to take refuge in one side. The question was who to take refuge in?

One side is the brothers of the same clan, and the other side is the relatives of the sons and daughters. No matter which side you take refuge in, you will definitely offend the other side. The palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh. This is too difficult!

But no matter how difficult it is, I have to make a decision, and it must be the right decision. If the political side is wrong, not only will I and my wife and children be in trouble, I am afraid that Xiahou's family will also be doomed.

Therefore, I must be cautious, compare the strengths of the two sides, and see who can be the final winner?

In terms of military strength, the two sides are evenly matched, with about 10,000+ troops, and they are all elites who can recruit and fight well!

In terms of distance, the two sides advanced at the same time, and arrived at the city of Luoyang at about the same time. The vanguard was faster, and I am afraid that they should arrive tomorrow. I don't know who is leading the army. Could it be an acquaintance?

From the commander's point of view, Xiao Yi is certainly extremely powerful, but the combination of Cao Xiong and Sima Yi's strength cannot be underestimated!

In the end, it is the prices offered by the two sides, one is in the sky and the other is underground. Why is there such a big gap?

"Hui'er greets my father, this is freshly cooked bird's nest porridge, father use some, don't wear yourself out!"

"Okay, my son has a heart!"

A light figure walked in, it was Xia Houshang's only daughter and Xiao Feng's unmarried daughter-in-law Xia Houwei, holding a bowl of bird's nest porridge in her hand, exuding a fragrant smell!

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye, the former little girl doll has turned into a cardamom girl, and the facial features have also grown. Willow leaf eyebrows, apricot eyes, and a small cherry mouth. The standard little beauty embryo will definitely be overwhelmed in a few years. Alluring beauties, Xiao Feng will enjoy the blessings at that time.

No father could refuse the filial piety porridge sent by his daughter. Xia Houshang took the porridge in his hand and drank it clean in a few sips. His stomach and heart were warm and his spirit was lifted!

"Looking at my father's frowning, could it be that he has encountered something difficult to decide?"

"My son Bingxue is smart, I must have known it a long time ago, hurry up and help my father with advice!"

"You are a girl, how dare you take part in important military affairs and spread the word to make people laugh!"

"My own family, but it doesn't matter, how to decide this matter is related to the life and death of my Xiahou clan!"

……

Xia Houhui is extremely talented. Not only is he proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and female red cooking, but he is also not inferior to men in reading and learning!

He is also very knowledgeable, better at figuring out people's hearts, and predicts things with great precision. Therefore, Xia Houshang often seeks his daughter's opinions on military and state affairs, and he benefits every time!

"Since the father asked, the child dared to say a few words:

Now that the general situation in the world has changed, the east and west armies are going straight to Luoyang in order to seize an upper hand, and my father holds the power of Luoyang garrison, both sides must be wooing, I hope you can take refuge in the past!

However, the boy guessed that the prices offered by the two sides are completely different. The price on the east side is extremely high, which makes people excited, while the price on the west side is extremely low, which makes people puzzled? "

"My son really has extraordinary wisdom, the guess is not bad at all, let's read these letters!"

While talking, Xia Houshang took out two nanmu boxes from the dark compartment under the couch, one black and one red!

There are dozens of letters in the red box, all sent by people sent by Cao Xiong and Sima Yi. In the letters, officials are kept making wishes, and the price of the general, the king of Runan, and the fiefs of the three counties has been set out. Everyone was moved by it, although the surnames Xiahou and Cao are connected by blood, but the Wei court has not yet canonized a prince with the surname Xiahou!

There is only one letter in the red box, which is Xiao Yi's own handwritten letter. It only has a simple courtesy greeting, but does not mention anything about officials and titles. However, there are eight words on the back of the letter: "Those who follow the sky will prosper, and those who go against the sky will perish!" '

Logically speaking, as long as Xia Houshang is wined over, Luoyang City can be controlled. Xiao Yi is fully aware of this, but it is really incomprehensible to send such a letter!

"In my son's opinion, what should I choose as a father?"

"From my child's point of view, my father's refuge in the east is to send charcoal in a timely manner, and the profit must be huge, and my father's refuge in the west is a icing on the cake, dispensable, but the child dares to ask: Does the father really dare to send this pot of charcoal? Do you dare not add it?"

"Oh, I mean, the West is sure to win?"

"Exactly, because there is nothing to ask for, there is nothing to reward!"

A word awakened the dreamer, Xia Houshang couldn't help but nodded secretly, he really didn't dare to give the charcoal to the east, and he didn't dare not to add the flowers to the west!

Why did Cao Xiong and Sima Yi use high-ranking officials and rich salary? It was because they had a guilty conscience and were not sure of winning, so they spared no expense to win over themselves!

Why Xiao Yi is so calm, it is because he has the bottom line in his heart, he is already sure of winning, and he does not need his help at all, and the purpose of sending someone to deliver the letter is not to ask for anything, but to give him a hand, for the sake of his children and in-laws In face!

If you are greedy for official titles and blindly seek refuge in Kedong, you are afraid that in the end, you will lose all your money and lose everything. I have seen the thunderbolt method of killing gods before!

"It's getting late, my son, let's go back and rest!"

"No, the boy is leaving!"

What the daughter said made sense, but it was a matter of family life and death, Xia Houshang still had to think about it, even if he took refuge in the west, he still had to make some preparations and give him a meeting gift, right?

"Come on, call the captains of the four city gates and the commanders of the various armies!"

"promise!"

"Secretly dispatch people to monitor every move of Sima's mansion. If there is any change, report it immediately!"

"promise!"

That night, the lights in General Anbei's mansion were brightly lit. Xia Houshang discussed with his confidantes all night, until dawn, when some soldiers came in to report...

Chapter 1702 The Xuanjia Army PK Tiger and Leopard Riders!

"Report to General Xiahou, a force of troops has rushed over from the east, and it is still more than [-] miles away from Luoyang!"

"Who is the leader?"

"It's Xiahou calling the general!"

Xia Houshang and Xia Hou said they were brothers of the same clan, and Cao Xiong and Sima Yi sent the latter to be the vanguard, obviously wanting to use the key of family affection to open the gate of Luoyang City!

"Report to General Xiahou, another army is coming from the west!"

"Who is the leader?"

"It's General Hao Zhao!"

Xiao Yi and Xia Houshang are in-laws, they didn't send their son Xiao Feng to lead the army, instead they sent their apprentice Hao Zhao to lead the army.

Two soldiers and horses competed for Luoyang City, and Xiahou was still in a dilemma. At this time, using family affection to persecute, not only failed to achieve results, but also made him resentful. It is far better to take a step back and be more generous, which is more humane!

"Go, take a look, let the soldiers get ready!"

"promise!"

Xiahou still didn't dare to be negligent, and while ordering the whole city to be on alert, ready to face the battle; at the same time, he led people to climb up the tower, watching the situation from a high position!
