As for the rest, sometimes it's a good thing to talk too much. But sometimes, if you talk too much, it's not good, the so-called saying too much will be lost, the words of this ancestor are indeed reasonable.

Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao, who were in Tang City, were chatting expressionlessly at this time, and they heard Zhou Cang say: "I said Lao Pei, the lord didn't have many people, so if he wanted reinforcements to talk, it was impossible!" Even Chenyang is short of major generals and needs reinforcements, so let's not think about anything! ”

When Pei Yuanshao heard this, he smiled bitterly and said: "Who said it wasn't, it's just that now this shape is shì, this situation, Lao Zhou, how many days can we hold it?" ”

When Zhou Cang heard this, he glared, "Don't worry about a few days, anyway, let's do our best!" As long as we can hold on for a long time, then we can make a difference in front of the lord, right? ”

Pei Yuanshao nodded, "Alas, it's true!" ”――

What the two of them think has never changed, and if they still say that, if they keep it for a long time, they can be regarded as meritorious. After all, even the two of them knew that even if their lord didn't order anything like that, but now the shape can only be like this. So if you do this, you will make a meritorious service, but if you can't do it, it will be a failure, and you may have to make people laugh.

Both of them are good-looking people, and of course they don't want to be ridiculed. Yes, in fact, they don't say that they care so much about this face, after all, there are a few people who have not lost it, but now they are in their own Han army. Originally, the two were born in yellow scarves, so they had no status. And then be ridiculed again, isn't this even less status?

Even if it's Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao. The two people from the Yellow Turban, although they don't have any particularly lofty ambitions, they also know that it is not bad to climb up and want to be recognized by their lord and improve their status. Although they didn't think that they must become a celebrity in front of their own lord's account, but it has to be about the same. So......

In fact, the two of them are self-aware, they know their own abilities, Pei Yuanshao needless to say, they all know what they are like-

As for Zhou Cang, even if he thinks that his martial arts are good, but there are not only generals like Wen Chou on his side, but also people with superb martial arts like Tai Shici, and even heard that one named Wei Yan who took refuge in his side before. It seems to be quite powerful. So even if Zhou Cang knew that his martial arts were okay, it was only second-rate, and it couldn't be compared with the first-class level of others.

As for the rest, it is said that the city is guarded. He is definitely not as good as Huo Jun and Huo Zhongmiao, and when he says that he leads troops to fight, he is definitely not as good as Taishi Ci and Shi Ziyi. Of course. Compared to ordinary generals, he is okay. And his biggest advantage is to lead troops to attack the city. At least he is the most suitable, or his lord will not always use himself and Lao Pei.

Of course, it is impossible for Wen Chou and Tai Shici to personally lead the troops to attack the city, it is basically impossible, so there are only themselves and Lao Pei.

And Zhou Cang thinks that if you want to surpass others, it is estimated that this is it, and his lord still values himself.

When Liu Bei was still waiting for the news of the messenger to Jiangling, he listened to the Malay newspaper, "Report to the lord, five miles outside the city, I found reinforcements from our army!" ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he slapped the table, "Okay!" ”

Then let Tanma go to receive the reward first, and he said to Xu Shu and Liu Ba: "Yuan Zhi, Zichu, come with me to meet our army reinforcements!" ”

Since Tanma said that it was his own reinforcements, then of course it was Jiangling's, needless to say, the three of them understood. But I just don't know who came, anyway, except for Tai Shici or Wei Yan, except for the two of them, there is no one else, it can't be Liu Qi coming, isn't that a joke.

"No!"

Xu Shu and Liu Ba agreed in unison, and then left with their father-in-law.

For Liu Bei, he didn't inform all his subordinates in Chenyang, he didn't feel that there was a need. After all, with his two strategists, he is already good. As for letting everyone go out of the city to greet them, unless it's a victorious man and a horse, and it's worth it, otherwise, in fact, if you're the lord can go out, it's already okay, isn't it?

And he thinks that no matter who comes, he won't pick this, after all, Wuling is so nervous now, so what is the situation, needless to say.

Of course, they weren't too anxious, after all, Tanma had said before that the reinforcements were still five miles away from Chenyang, and now they were less than five miles, but according to their speed, the three of them must be faster than them.

So Liu Bei and the three of them didn't say that they were going to Chenyang City in a hurry, of course, after they tidied up a little, they went to Chenyang City in addition to the mansion -

When Liu Bei saw Wei Yan coming with his troops, he smiled, he thought that Wei Yan would come over in person, and it turned out to be so!

Seeing that his lord and Xu Shu and Liu Ba were still in charge, Wei Yan hurriedly garrisoned the army, then got off his horse and arched his hand and said, "My lord, two gentlemen!" ”

Liu Bei smiled, "We're waiting for Wen Chang to come, and now you can be regarded as coming!" ”

Wei Yan also smiled, and then said: "The subordinates shouldn't be too late, so the lord is in a hurry!" ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he smiled and said, "It's not late, it's not late." It's good to be here! ”

Because Wei Yan arrived first, he naturally wanted to follow Liu Bei and them into Chenyang. As for how Liu Bei arranged him, it is unknown. What Tai Shi Ci thought of before. It's just that Wei Yan encountered Ma Chao's situation, but he came early, so naturally he didn't encounter Ma Chao's Liangzhou army. As for what Liu Bei asked him to take with him after that, that was his own business. Yes, he asked Wei Yan to deal with the Liangzhou army, then Wei Yan also has to go, let him go to defend the city, then he also has to go, isn't that it-

Liu Bei said to Wei Yan: "Come on, come on." The chief went into the city with me, and this is not the place to speak! ”

As he spoke, he took Wei Yan's hand and entered the city directly, of course, Wei Yan did not forget his promise, so he followed his lord into the city together. This Liu Bei did take Wei Yan's hand into the city, if you want to say that Liu has big ears, then buying people's hearts does have his own set. At least Wei Yan didn't return with a big victory. But Liu Bei gave him a lot of treatment, why, not just to buy him and make him loyal to him. Especially when it comes to employing people today. That's not to mention.

Therefore, think about it, Liu Bei can have today's results, which has to be said. It's not that there is no truth at all, that's one of the truths. It is also a premise that he can have today. At least for his subordinates, especially talented. He thinks that Liu Bei has always been courteous to people who can stand alone, so that the other party is like a spring breeze, and he feels that it is worth it to serve the lord!

Basically, everyone who is the lord, he has his own set of buying people's hearts, Liu Bei is like this, Cao Cao, he also uses words to let you know how he values his subordinates, especially those who are loyal to him-

As for Ma Chao, let's not talk about it far away, just say that every time he goes to a place, he praises his subordinates for their contributions to Meng Huo in Yizhou in Sanjiang City, isn't this a way to buy people's hearts. Sun Ce is using himself to set off the talents of his subordinates, for example, he will say that his martial arts may not be as good as anyone, as for strategy, it is even worse than whoever is who, anyway, it's something similar, isn't it all for his subordinates to be loyal to themselves.

Liu Bei pulled Wei Yan from the gate of Chenyang North City Gate to his residence, although this is not too far, but looking at the level of his people to buy people's hearts, it is definitely not low.

As for Wei Yan, although he also knew his lord's intentions, he had to say that when he saw Liu Bei like this, he was so proud that he didn't mention it. Because in his opinion, only you are useless, there is no talent, and your lord does not pay attention to it, otherwise, would it be like that? I don't think so, so if you look at yourself, it's not hard to understand something. If you say that you don't have any ability, your lord will never do this-

Wei Yan took refuge in Liu Bei, it was some time, and he still knew very well in his heart that his lord was a very realistic person. To put it bluntly, he has always done things that are good for himself, and the most beneficial, otherwise he would never be like that. If you really want to talk about it, maybe everyone is like this, but even more so as the lord. This is Wei Yan's impression of Liu Bei, he still knows these things.

After pulling Wei Yan into the living room, Liu Bei let go, "Wen Chang, sit!" Yuan Zhi, Zichu, you all sit! ”

The three of them thanked the lord, and then at this time, Wei Yan briefly explained to Liu Bei about the messenger. Of course, he wants to see his lord's attitude, after all, what is he for, and that's not it.

As a result, as soon as Liu Bei heard Wei Yan finish speaking, he smiled, "I see!" I said, why did the messenger not return for a long time, and thought that something had happened to him? So that's the case, Wen Chang, this is all a trivial matter, now that you are here, I can even let go of a lot of hearts here, after all, you know more or less about Chenyang's situation! ”――

When Wei Yan heard this, he said in his heart at this time, looking at his father-in-law's surface, he had no expression, and he didn't say anything about himself, but said that it was a trivial matter. But what about the actual situation, of course, I can't see the true thoughts of my lord's heart. But I can be sure of one thing, that is, my lord will reuse himself for the time being, because looking at the current situation, you will know. So it's right to take such a step by yourself, this is coming with your own troops, and the meritorious service is right in front of you, isn't it good?

As for the temptation, for the time being, this matter has passed, and I don't know what will happen in the future. But from the current point of view, it should be nothing, and his lord doesn't have much feeling, and he doesn't have much reaction. As for what will happen in the future, who knows?

In fact, there is some truth in what Wei Yan thinks, at least Liu Bei wants to reuse Wei Yan, this is certain. As for saying that the other party was tempting himself to be the lord, Liu Bei was of course dissatisfied, but now that it was the time to employ people, he naturally wouldn't say anything about Wei Yan, but instead had to tell him directly, there was no big deal-

At this time, Liu Bei said to Wei Yan: "Today, Wen has come from a long way, it is really hard, I will hold a banquet for Wen Chang in the evening!" ”

"Thank you, my lord!"

Wei Yan thought about it before, his lord wanted to be like this, but sure enough, in the end, his lord said it, and held a banquet in the evening to invite himself. If it's good, you can also know more of your own generals, anyway, in Chenyang, you will naturally see it. I haven't seen it anywhere else, and I have to get to know it slowly in the future.

In the end, Liu Bei specially asked about Jiangling City, after all, Wei Yan was the chief general of Jiangling before, so he still didn't know. As for Liu Bei, he asked his nephew, Liu Qi, intentionally or unintentionally, of course Liu Bei couldn't say anything to Wei Yan directly, did Liu Qi have any small moves, or something else. Even if he asked, he was asking Wei Yan at this time, how was his nephew in the general's city. (To be continued......)
