Chapter 564

Five years ago, old Hua, who was loyal to the Qingyang royal family, was surprised to learn that his emperor had taken risks with his own body. As a result, he was besieged by Bai lie's enemy.

The situation is at stake!

In order to save the emperor as soon as possible, old Hua didn't have time to order all his troops. He only led his trusted followers to the battlefield from Qingfeng city.

But who knows, I originally planned to gather as many troops as possible along the way, so as to have a large number of troops to fight after arriving at the place, but the result was... Hua Lao galloped all the way, and all the cities along the way did not let Hua Lao add troops for various reasons.

In this way, until Hua Lao came to the periphery of Bai lie's enemy, what he had in his hands was only his own trusted troops.

At that time, of course, old Hua had found that things were different, but the situation was urgent. He didn't care to explore at all. He had to find a way to solve the danger of the emperor being trapped first.

Therefore, in desperation, the choice that Hua Lao can make is to go deep alone and only rely on a little force at hand to contain Bai lie empire.

Afterwards, it was proved that Hua Lao did do it, but as a result, his losses were extremely heavy.

Nine times out of ten thousand trusted troops who died in the territory of the Bailie Empire, only a few hundred people can really come back.

How tragic?

But in the end, Hua Lao's war results with his life were regarded as those who were greedy for life and afraid of death at the afterwards celebration party, and his credit in the territory of the Bailie empire was completely denied.

However, it is strange that the questioned Hua Lao did not have any explanation at that time, but allowed other generals to sneer at him, and even finally made the decision to retire. This will make people think that Hua Lao was right in the heart, so he would make such a choice under shame.

It has to be said that according to the information collected by Chen Ze afterwards, many people did speculate about the retirement of Hua Lao at that time.

And this is also a point that Chen Ze doubts very much.

At that time, Hua Lao really paid a great price to save the trapped situation, and even his own trusted followers were dead and wounded.

At that time, as a compassionate general under his command, shouldn't Hua Lao have fought harder to honor his dead brothers?

But instead of doing so, he chose not to say a word and let others pour dirty water on himself.

This is very unusual. After Chen Ze didn't understand at first, he also thought of a reason.

That is... Old Hua must have been under some kind of coercion at the beginning, otherwise he would never have made such an abnormal move.

It was because he was coerced that old Hua did not speak from beginning to end, nor did he defend himself or his dead brothers for more than half a sentence.

This is the only explanation, otherwise it doesn't make sense. Why did Mingming make great contributions? Mingming just experienced a bloody battle. Mingming can send someone to do some simple investigation to prove his innocence, but he didn't do anything and said nothing.

Whether from the ridicule of outsiders or the incomprehension of their own people, the old Chinese were silent and did not give any response.

Thinking of this, combined with the fact that Hua Lao suddenly mentioned five years ago, Chen Ze suddenly had an association.

"Is it..."

He slowly opened his mouth and looked at Xiang HuaLao with hesitation.

Can that sentence be followed by the following, but did not say it for a long time.

This is Chen Ze's caution.

Before, it was because he was too preconceived. In fact, many things were not said by Hua Lao himself, but his own reasoning.

After all, he is not omnipotent, but his reasoning must be based on some accurate information.

Before that, Hua Lao was intentionally or unintentionally influencing Chen Ze's judgment, making him lead astray bit by bit under preconceived ideas, and finally made the judgment that Hua Lao wanted him to make.

So this time, Chen Ze didn't take the initiative to open his mouth. Even if he guessed something, he needed Hua Lao to say it himself, and then make an accurate judgment through this process.

Instead of being guided step by step by Hua Lao and falling into each other's pit as before.

This is also before Chen Zetai believed that Hua Lao.

To tell you the truth, when I first met Hua Lao, because of the examination questions given by Hua Lao and Chen Ze's answer, Hua Lao obviously disagreed, but the sadness in his tone was obviously felt by Chen Ze.

Since then, Chen Ze believed that Hua Lao was the same kind of person as him.

Then, old Hua gave him a special task, which seemed to be a near death, but it was a further test for him. The reason for doing so was to find a suitable general for Meng Yang and others, so that they would no longer stay in bo'an barracks.

In Chen Ze's heart, he didn't think that old Hua would be a different generation, so he had more trust in him.

Then there is the Chinese old man's pay to Chen Ze.

In the Boan City Lord's residence, when everyone was not optimistic about Chen Ze, even the general army of Luo just remained neutral. Only old Hua stood up and was willing to protect his life, which made Zheng Yuanyun agree with Chen Ze's proposal.

Use your life!

At that time, Chen Ze returned to bo'an city and saw Hua Lao for the second time. For the second time, he was willing to protect him with his life!

Whether Hua always sees Chen Ze's plan promising, but no one is willing to show his life?

The battlefield is changing rapidly. Who dares to say that we will win without defeat?

If there's a chance, you'll die?

After this battle, Chen Ze's trust in Chinese elders was stronger, so this was the reason why later, when he was suppressed by Zheng Yuanyun in Nantes Province, he did not hesitate to let Guo Zi come back and ask Chen Ze for support.

At that time, he never thought that Hua Lao would refuse.

This is the case.

If there are people Chen Ze really trusts in the world, apart from his subordinates who have passed the examination of military generals, there is only Hua Lao.

Even Luo Zongbing, because he has always had reservations about Chen Ze, his trust is still under Hua Lao.

Who would have thought that old Hua, whom Chen Ze trusted wholeheartedly, had done so many things behind his back.

However, although Chen Ze was confused, he was not too angry.

After all, Hua Lao just deceived him and let him do useless work for a few days. At least for now, he has no loss, so he can calmly wait for Hua Lao to answer his doubts.

Seeing Chen Ze's words, he lost his voice. Old Hua smiled bitterly and sighed, "that's what you think. I have something in each other's hands."
