his robbery

Huo Xiangzhen didn't sleep well all night, and had strange dreams one after another.In the dream, Bai Mani didn't know what big mistake he made again, and he was so angry that he stood in the living room downstairs and yelled.Bai Mani stood in front of him tremblingly, at first he was crying bitterly, crying and crying, he fell back and fell on his back.He was startled, and suddenly remembered that his younger brother's left leg was disabled, how could he stand without the cane for a long time?

He hurriedly bent over, trying to help Bai Mani.But Bai Mani suddenly screamed in pain, and at the same time, a pool of blood quickly spread out from under his body.Grabbing Bai Mani's arm, he turned from anger to panic.And Bai Mani cried mournfully, "Brother, I'm going to give birth."

He was shocked: "Little brother, you are a man, what are you doing?"

Bai Mani opened his mouth wide and cried, "I'm not a man, I'm a woman."

He hugged Bai Mani by the waist, and there was a bit of joy in addition to panic: "Okay, okay, girls are girls. Don't be afraid, I'll take you to the hospital right away."

Bai Mani grabbed his tie with a bloody hand and wailed like a child: "I'm not married yet! I can't have children!"

He felt that Bai Mani's words were naive, so he ran out and said, "Get married after giving birth."

Bai Mani still cried: "People will laugh at you!"

Huo Xiangzhen was very anxious, but her legs were heavy, and she couldn't run no matter how much she ran, she was so anxious that she wanted to vomit blood: "Bullshit! Who dares to laugh?"

As soon as these words came out, Bai Mani suddenly stopped crying.Not only did he not cry, he even completely took back the crying scene just now.A carp fell to the ground, and Bai Mani faced him calmly: "Brother, I misremembered, I am not a woman, I am a man."

Huo Xiangzhen looked at him out of breath, seeing that he was wearing a white suit, but his trousers were stained red with blood: "A man?" He panted and asked, "A man again?"

Bai Mani nodded: "I'm a man, will you still marry me?"

Huo Xiangzhen was stunned by his question: "Man... how do you get married?"

Bai Mani tilted his head and smiled miserably: "I knew it."

Then, the bloody Bai Mani turned around and walked further and further away with his back.Seeing it in his eyes, he was so anxious that he was going crazy, but at the same time, it was as if he had been immobilized, unable to move at all.With an unbearable roar, he jumped up and opened his eyes, but saw the sunlight in the room.

Holding the quilt in a daze for a while, he raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, then stretched his legs out of bed and put on slippers.Pushing the door and hurriedly entering the corridor, he broke into Bai Mani's bedroom heavily.Bai Mani was lying on the bed with a quilt, sleeping soundly.Huo Xiangzhen leaned against the door frame and stood firm, panting for a long time at him.

When her breath subsided, Huo Xiangzhen gently closed the door, turned around and went back to the room to wash up.

Before lunch, Huo Xiangzhen went into Bai Mani's bedroom again.

Bai Mani was already fully dressed, and was leaning on a big pillow to read pictorials.Hearing that Huo Xiangzhen came in, he did not lift his head and opened his eyes, and pouted slightly in anger.

Huo Xiangzhen sat down on the sofa chair beside the bed.With one elbow resting on the armrest of the chair, he leaned towards the big bed and followed Bai Mani to read a few pages of the pictorial.Then retracted his head and cleared his throat, he opened his mouth: "Little brother?"

Bai Mani knew that he was showing weakness, but he planned to stand up and not be easily coaxed away by him.

As if conjuring, Huo Xiangzhen took out a beautiful golden-red orange from his trouser pocket.Reaching out and putting the orange in the corner of the pictorial, Huo Xiangzhen said again: "Eat it, it's very fresh."

Bai Mani glanced at Tangerine, decided to take a risk, and continued to remain silent.

Huo Xiangzhen sat quietly for a while, seeing that he hung his head aggrievedly, just staring at the pictorial in a daze, so he picked up the oranges and began to peel them slowly.There was a sweet and sour orange aroma in the room, Huo Xiangzhen broke off a petal, and brought it to Bai Mani's mouth.

Bai Mani hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth to eat the slice of orange.It's almost enough, he thought, the eldest brother's patience is limited, and he has to be sensible.

As soon as he ate two pieces of oranges, Huo Xiangzhen stopped feeding them.Putting the remaining half of the orange into his hand, Huo Xiangzhen asked seriously in a low voice: "Does it still hurt?"

Bai Mani shook his head: "It doesn't hurt much."

Huo Xiangzhen got up: "Take off your pants, let me see."

Bai Mani immediately grabbed his belt with one hand: "I know whether it hurts or not, I don't need you to look!"

Huo Xiangzhen knelt on the bed with one leg: "Hurry up!"

Bai Mani turned over and rolled far away, shouting in shame, laughter and fear: "Brother, don't look at evil!"

Huo Xiangzhen leaned over and reached out, trying to grab him.However, before he succeeded, the door was suddenly knocked by the adjutant.Through a door panel, the adjutant whispered, "Report to the Commander, the President is calling."

Huo Xiangzhen straightened up immediately, and Bai Mani also knew that he had escaped a catastrophe - thinking about what happened last night, it was a bit unbearable to look back on.He dared to play tricks with his bare butt in front of Huo Xiangzhen, but he was absolutely unwilling to let the other party break his leg to see that invisible injury.

There are several telephone lines in the building, and there are several telephone sets.Huo Xiangzhen went to the study and had a long private conversation with the president on the phone.After hanging up the phone, he stared at the white wall in front of him in a daze.

The president has fallen into a situation where he is besieged on all sides, and he can't even guarantee his own safety.He has no reason to hide in the embassy area for a lifetime, but once he leaves the embassy area, he is alone and helpless, and may not even be able to leave Beijing.The president seemed to be stuck in a swamp, looking around, there was no way out, so he asked Huo Xiangzhen for help—the current Northwest King is the son and daughter of the president.The status of the Northwest King has also been shaken recently, and he has no strength to go to Beijing to rescue the President, so the President wants to ask Huo Xiangzhen for a favor and send him to Xi'an.

Huo Xiangzhen weighed this matter over and over again, the more he weighed, the more uncertain he became.Regardless of the president, the president may die in Beijing; if the president is in charge, he must be in charge to the end.If something happened to the president halfway, Huo Xiangzhen would be responsible.An incident fulfilled his Gyeonggi Garrison Commander.We all know that his soldiers have entered Beijing, and there will never be fewer people who are jealous; in the newspapers in the south, some public opinion has already begun to criticize him.Fortunately, he has his own ideas. Anyway, he is used to being called a warlord, so it doesn't matter if he receives a few more words of scolding without pain.

The big president occupied his mind, and Bai Mani lost his foothold in an instant.After walking back and forth for a while with his hands behind his back, he finally went downstairs and entered the living room, wanting Yuan Man to find An Rushan.An Rushan also went to Beijing, but he was dishonest and never stayed in one place for a long time. Instead of calling him from all directions, it is better to send a living person to arrest him.

Yuan Man heard his order clearly and immediately agreed to go out.But before he could turn back, An Rushan came by himself.Standing outside the hall and paying a military salute, he said loudly, "Marshal!"

Through a layer of crystal bead curtain, Huo Xiangzhen waved to him: "It's just in time."

Yuan Man lifted the curtain for An Rushan, and then quietly retreated out.An Rushan hurriedly walked to the sofa, saw Huo Xiangzhen making a downward gesture to himself, and sat down on the sofa: "Marshal, I have new news—" He chuckled, "Even Yi and Wan Guoqiang fought."

Huo Xiangzhen put down the president again with great interest: "Their alliance is disbanded?"

An Rushan thought about it and said with a smile: "It is said that Lian Yi gave Wan Guoqiang's son to that."

Huo Xiangzhen frowned: "How old is Wan Guoqiang's son? Is Lian Yi crazy?"

An Rushan waved his hand: "It's nothing serious, it's just flirting anyway. They also had conflicts before, and now they just broke up completely because of this matter."

Although Lian Yi is thousands of miles away from Huo Xiangzhen, recalling Lian Yi's words and appearance, Huo Xiangzhen still couldn't help but feel chills: "Which one of them has the upper hand now?"

An Rushan straightened his face: "Commander, originally Lian Yi had the upper hand, but Wan Guoqiang didn't move, and Lian Yi did."

Huo Xiangzhen looked into An Rushan's eyes: "He wants to come back?"

An Rushan pondered for a while: "It's hard to say. Where he is, he goes north to Zhili, and west to Henan. If he goes out from Shandong, Duan Zhongtian will definitely not intervene."

Huo Xiangzhen nodded slowly: "I don't care who Lian Yi wants to fight or where he wants to go, but he is not allowed to step further in Zhili. Now let's wait and see. If there is any change, I will immediately send troops to support Lu Division .”

Then he turned to An Rushan and got to the point.An Rushan listened quietly, and at the end, he couldn't help but interjected: "Marshal, you can let him go back by himself. At worst, let's send him more soldiers and escort him closely, isn't it the same? ?”

Huo Xiangzhen shook his head: "Help people to the end, send Buddha to the west. Now he is a hot potato, no one dares to touch it. No one else cares, I care. Besides his age depends on his age. There may not be a day to come back. I personally send him a trip, not only to be worthy of him, but also to my own conscience. "

At this point, he sighed: "This old man is not expected to be a president at all, and he insists on living the addiction of being king, but now he is not guaranteed at the end of the day. Why bother?"

Hearing this, An Rushan was also moved, and at the same time asked: "When is the commander-in-chief going to leave?"

Huo Xiangzhen replied: "The sooner the better."

Yuan Man guarded the living room like a door god, letting Huo Xiangzhen and An Rushan talk inside.The voice of the conversation is getting lower and lower, and it can be seen that the content is becoming more and more confidential.After a long time like this, An Rushan bid farewell and left in a hurry.

Huo Xiangzhen also left the living room, and stood on the steps in front of the building, staring at the pale sky in a daze again.The weather has been bad for a while, with light rain pattering endlessly, and the air is always cool and cloudy with moisture.Raising his arms in a chest-expanding pose, he raised his head and took a deep breath.Although it is not very far from Beijing to Xi'an, and there are modern trains and railways, it is not difficult to travel there.But how could a character like him dare to leave his base camp so easily?He holds the military and political power of a province in his hands, and his life is too valuable.

Sudden slight attack on the top of his head, Huo Xiangzhen raised his head suddenly and saw a window opened on the second floor.And Bai Mani poked his head out, and threw another small piece of orange peel at him: "Brother! What are you doing standing there?"

Huo Xiangzhen withdrew her gaze and turned to the front, continuing to think about her own thoughts.After thinking about it, he called Yuan Man out again: "Where's Ma Congrong?"

Yuan Man replied: "The Secretary-General went out in the morning and said he would come back in the afternoon."

Huo Xiangzhen was silent for a moment, and then said: "Go out, call Xuebing over first, and then send a telegram to Gu Chengxi, asking him to lead troops into the city."

Yuan Man agreed, and stepped forward.After walking less than three meters, an adjutant trotted over: "Report to Commander, Captain Xue is here!"

Yuan Man immediately turned his head and smiled at Huo Xiangzhen—he deserved not to be an errand today.

Huo Xiangzhen's head of security was a bannerman, surnamed Sarah and named Xuebing.No one remembered his last name, and everyone called him Captain Xue when they mentioned it.Xue Bing was a few years older than Huo Xiangzhen, and her parents died early when she was a child. She became a servant first and then a military officer by Mr. Huo's side. She was a bit like an adopted son, but she didn't have the status and status of an adopted son.He also knew that he was embarrassing about being improper, so he was extra conscious, no matter what errand he got, he would do it quietly and earnestly; usually Huo Xiangzhen didn't look for him, and he never took the initiative to join Huo's house.Came here today, did he want to ask Huo Xiangzhen for instructions - would he stay in Beijing next, or return to Tianjin?

As a result, he couldn't stay in Beijing, and he couldn't go back to Tianjin.Huo Xiangzhen asked him to select a group of elite soldiers from the guard regiment, and follow him on the train to Xi'an.

Xuebing agreed and went to do it immediately.When Huo Xiangzhen saw Yuan Man standing there smiling, he waved his hand impatiently: "Go and send a telegram! Get the Secretary-General back by the way!"

Only then did Yuan Man remember his mission, salute a military salute, and was about to agree.But before he could speak, Ma Congrong strolled over slowly: "Master, what are you doing?"

Huo Xiangzhen and Yuan Man looked at him together, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Ma Congrong stopped in doubt: "What are you laughing at? Is there a happy event at home?"

Yuan Man said with a smile: "The commander-in-chief is amazing today, whoever will come."

Ma Congrong turned to Huo Xiangzhen: "Did you mention me just now?"

Huo Xiangzhen turned her hands away, looked at him and asked, "What are you running wild from morning to night? Do I have to put a bridle on you?"

Ma Congrong blinked his eyes, then bowed his head resignedly: "Master, I was wrong."
