finally said that Ma Ye asked him to drink less, but he didn't expect him to put forward another condition in the end, and when he saw the ill-intentioned smile on Ma Ye's face, Li Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly, because he knew what Ma Ye was going to make, so he was also very helpless at this time: "Uncle Ma, don't go, it's really not okay, how about I run for you?" ”

"I'm not old and can't move, why can't I go?" Ma Ye blew his beard angrily when he heard Li Xiu's words, he glared and said, like Qin Qiong, he hopes to be able to return to Liaodong one day, although he is now old and in poor health, but he has not yet reached the point where he can't walk, so he naturally wants to go with him.

"Uncle Ma, don't be embarrassed for me, you know the situation in Liaodong better than me, not to mention anything else, the climate over there alone is not something that ordinary people can bear, so I think you should rest at home, and then you will have me and General Qin." Li Xiu smiled bitterly again and persuaded them, they went to Goguryeo to fight, and they didn't have the energy to take care of an old man like Ma Ye.

"No, Uncle Bao can go, why can't I?" Ma Ye is very stubborn, he is a disobedient character, even if his current body is really bad, he still doesn't want to admit it.

"Brother Ma, don't be embarrassed, I know your thoughts, and I will help you bring our old brothers back!" Qin Qiong also opened his mouth to persuade at this time, he was much younger than Ma Ye, but even so, he still felt a little difficult, not to mention that Ma Ye had been sick from time to time in the past two years, and his body had collapsed, and he couldn't ride a horse to fight like he did when he was young.

"I'm not embarrassed for you, it's just that when I think of the old brothers who stayed in Liaodong, I hold a breath in my heart, and I must bring them back in person, so I must go to Liaodong!" When Ma Ye said this, he looked at Li Xiu again and said, "If you don't help me, then I will go to Your Majesty myself, even if I give up this old face, I will ask him to take me with me!" ”

"Uncle Ma, you ......" Li Xiu really didn't know what to say when he heard this, and looked at Qin Qiong next to him for help, but unfortunately Qin Qiong was not very good at persuading people, and he understood Ma Ye's temper, as long as it was something he recognized, the nine cows didn't want to pull it back, so he could only show a helpless wry smile at this time.

Seeing that Qin Qiong had no choice, Li Xiu also smiled bitterly, but at this time, he suddenly thought of something, and immediately smiled and said: "Uncle Ma, if you really want to go, I can help you ask Your Majesty for a favor, but do you want to discuss this matter with the county lord first?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Brother Ma, you'd better discuss it with your sister-in-law, after all, such a big matter, if your sister-in-law doesn't agree, I'll forget it! Qin Qiong's eyes lit up when she heard Li Xiu's words, and she immediately opened her mouth to persuade.

Don't look at Ma Ye talking outside, but since he married the county lord of Guanghua, he listened to the words of the county lord of Guanghua the most, this is not to say that Ma Ye is afraid of his wife, but his respect and love for his wife, for example, he was sick some time ago and was not allowed to eat meat, if there is no county lord of Guanghua, I am afraid that Ma Ye will not take it as a thing at all, how to eat and how to eat, but now that there is the county lord of Guanghua at home, he can only secretly find Li Xiu if he wants to eat meat.

Hearing that Li Xiu asked him to discuss it with his wife, Ma Ye was also dumbfounded all of a sudden, with his understanding of the county lord of Guanghua, the other party would definitely not agree. In fact, Ma Ye himself knows that with his current physical condition, if he goes to Liaodong, he may not be able to come back.

"Uncle Ma, in fact, this time His Majesty is determined to destroy Goguryeo, I estimate that next winter, our army will be able to drive to Pyongyang City, and then the entire Goguryeo will be ours, and when the weather is warm in spring, I will personally take you over, and then collect the bones of those soldiers who died in Liaodong with you, do you think this will work?" At this time, Li Xiu proposed another way, and when the time came, Goguryeo was defeated, and there would be no problem in taking Ma Ye over.

"Brother Ma, I think this method of the horse is good, and the battle will be over, and I will be idle, let's slowly find the bones of the original brothers!" Qin Qiong also nodded in agreement at this time.

Hearing Li Xiu and Qin Qiong say this, and considering that his wife would not agree, Ma Ye couldn't help but sigh and said, "I'll think about this matter again." ”

Although Ma Ye did not agree not to go to Liaodong on the spot, his tone had softened, which made Li Xiu and Qin Qiong both happy in their hearts, because they were familiar with Ma Ye's personality and knew that he was actually just unable to save face when he said this, and he already had plans to give up in his heart.

"Uncle Bao, how is your current health, do you still have those old problems in the past?" Ma Ye was silent for a moment at this time, and then turned his head to Qin Qiong and asked, he couldn't go, so he naturally hoped that Qin Qiong, an old brother, could go on his behalf, but Qin Qiong's body also made him very worried.

"Brother Ma, don't worry, I've quit drinking in the past few years, and I usually take care of it according to Sun Daochang's instructions, and there is no problem with my body at all, if it really fights, even if the boys at home go together, they are not my opponents, as for the old problems in the past, they can't be cured, but they have also been reduced a lot, so you don't have to worry!" Qin Qiong laughed at this time, he had been recuperating for many years, and he had prepared for this day.

"It's okay if it's okay, it's okay if it's okay!" Ma Ye also whispered with envy at this time, but when he said this, he was suddenly silent for a moment, and then spoke again, "Shubao, do you remember when we attacked Goguryeo for the first time, we were surrounded by enemy troops, and my brothers were all killed in battle, if you hadn't carried me out of the pile of dead, I'm afraid I would have turned into a pile of dry bones a long time ago." ”

"Of course I remember, and I still remember the scene when those brothers died in battle, it was also the first time I participated in such a cruel battle, but I hated that I was too young at the beginning, otherwise I would definitely be able to lead my brothers out of the encirclement!" When Qin Qiong said in the end, he couldn't help but say with tears in his eyes, he joined the army as a teenager and became Ma Ye's subordinate, at that time, Ma Ye and others saw that he was young and took good care of him, but he didn't expect that after the First World War, except for him and Ma Ye, everyone else died in Liaodong, and sometimes he would see those brothers who had taken care of him in his dreams.

"Just remember, those old brothers have been waiting in Liaodong for too long, we must take them home this time!" Ma Ye also said with slightly red circles in his eyes at this time, the man does not bump lightly when he has tears, but he has not reached the sad place, especially when he is old, the easier it is to recall the people and things of the year.

Just when Li Xiu and Ma Ye were talking, they suddenly saw someone rushing to report: "Master Qiqi, Captain Xue asks to see!" ”
