Chapter 129: Who Sent the Book of Brocade (Part II)
Changsha, the gate of the city.
Wei Yan took a team of soldiers to inspect the city gate, and then prepared to turn back to the city.
As the captain of the city gate of Changsha City, Wei Yan's job on weekdays is to guard the city gate and monitor the entry and exit of the city gate.
Of course, the specific work naturally does not need Wei Yan to stare at the city gate.
He only needs to arrange for his soldiers to be on duty.
However, inspecting the four gates of Changsha City every day is also Wei Yan's daily work.
By the way, Wei Yan is also responsible for the security problems in Changsha City.
Seeing that Wei Yan is responsible for a lot of things, he should have a lot of authority, right?
Not really.
is also a school captain, and other school captains can lead a unit, with a minimum of 1,500 people.
And what about him, Wei Yan?
There are only 500 people under Wei Yan's command, and the strength of a battalion is merely a battalion, and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled.
The daily work is to be responsible for the guarding of the gates and city walls of Changsha City, plus to inspect the city.
Regardless of the number of troops under his command, he Wei Yan has also become a lieutenant and entered the ranks of middle-level officers, right?
However, in Changsha City, except for a veteran named Huang Zhong, who favored him Wei Yan, others, such as Taishou Liu Pan, Changshi Liu Mi and others, had never taken him Wei Yan in their eyes!
If it weren't for the veteran Huang Zhong, Wei Yan would be quite pleasing to the eye, and he would try his best to ensure that he became the captain of the city gate, but I am afraid that he Wei Yan is still stumbling in a small team position.
In fact, as far as Wei Yan is concerned, even if he is now a captain, he is still wasting time.
Wei Yan thinks that his martial arts and strength are not bad.
This is also the reason why he attracted the favor of veteran Huang Zhong.
However, who called him Wei Yan not Liu Jingzhou's henchman?
is not a confidant, he Wei Yan can be the captain of the city gate in this life, it is estimated that it will be the end, right?
No matter how high the strength of the warrior is?
What about the myriad of strategies?
In Changsha City, he Wei Yan could only continue to stumble!
If there is a big war, he Wei Yan will still have a better day.
However, in today's Jingxiang Seven Counties, except for Jiangxia Huangzu who has friction with the Jiangdong Sun family from time to time, the other counties are very peaceful. Even foreign enemies seem to be turning a blind eye to Jing Xiang's fat!
Heroes are ruined, heroes are useless, this is the portrayal of him Wei Yan today.
Of course, some people are willing to be ordinary, and they may think that it is also good to be a peaceful captain of the city gate.
But he, Wei Yan, is definitely not willing to be ordinary.
Otherwise, when Liu Biao entered Jingzhou, he Wei Yan would not have joined the army.
It's just that no matter how unwilling he Wei Yan is, no matter how he stumbles, what can he do?
Abandon Jingzhou and go elsewhere?
The other princes didn't know what his Wei Yan's ability was, who would dare to rashly take in the second minister?
Besides, if he rashly abandons Changsha and leaves, where will he leave the veteran Huang Zhong?
You must know that it was the veteran Huang Zhong who strongly recommended him Wei Yan from a small team to be promoted to the captain of the city gate!
These are all Wei Yan's bad things.
However, no matter how bad Wei Yan is, he will still try his best to complete the work on weekdays.
He knew that in this Changsha City, there were many people who looked at him Wei Yan unpleasantly, and once there was a mistake in his Wei Yan's work, wouldn't this be an excuse for those people to attack? When the time comes, I'm afraid that the captain of the city gate won't have to do it!
……
After a round of inspection, this morning's inspection work is almost complete. Wei Yan is going to go home, go home and rest, and have to patrol again in the afternoon. Changsha City said that it was not small, and after a round of inspections, there was no more than two hours.
"But General Wei Yanwei, the captain of the city gate?"
He was about to lead the team back to the city, but there was an inquiry at the gate of the city.
Wei Yan turned his head to look, but it was a caravan that had just entered the city.
This caravan, Wei Yan knows, is the caravan of the Mi family in Xuzhou, and there are shops of this caravan in Changsha City.
has been guarding the gate of Changsha City for a long time, and there are various caravans, how can Wei Yan not know it?
"Mi steward, what's the matter with finding the captain of this school?" Wei Yan stopped and asked.
Wei Yan was sure that although he knew the Mi family's caravan, he had never dealt with it on weekdays.
Don't look at him Wei Yan is in charge of the guard of Changsha City, and the Mi family caravan seems to be in and out of the city gate often, and will always deal with him Wei Yan? Actually, that's not the case at all!
The Mijia caravan and this detachment of Changsha City have long dredged the upper echelons of Changsha County.
For example, Taishou Liu Pan, Changshi Liu Du and others were all dredged by the Mi family caravan. If he Wei Yan dares to intercept the Mi family's caravan, Taishou and Changshi, he can teach him Wei Yan to be a man in minutes!
"On the orders of the head of my family, send a letter to General Wei!"
As he spoke, the steward took out a folded silk silk and handed it to Wei Yan.
Without waiting for Wei Yan to say anything more, the Mi steward left with the caravan.
The goods that have just been purchased from Xiangyang City, Mi Steward has to go back to sort them out, and he has no spare time to talk to Wei Yan here. It's just a city gate captain, and it is not in the eyes of the Mi steward.
Looking at the back of the Mi steward leaving with the caravan, Wei Yan was not angry that he was looked down upon.
This is the normal situation that he Wei Yan encountered in Changsha City. Over the years, those big names in the city are just that, those caravans with a little bit of strength, which one has given him a good look at Wei Yan?
Wei Yan was used to it, so he didn't feel angry.
Unfolding the letter, Wei Yan was happy in his heart.
"It's actually a solicitation letter written by Uncle Liu Huang himself?!"
Who is Uncle Liu Huang, Wei Yan has heard of it even if he is in Changsha.
It's just that Uncle Liu Huang was brought back to Xuchang by Cao Cao?
Why did this solicitation letter say that if he Wei Yan wanted to display his ambitions, he would go to Hanzhong?
Could it be that Uncle Liu Huang has already captured Hanzhong?
Wei Yan speculated in his heart.
Being able to be recruited by Uncle Liu Huang thousands of miles away, Wei Yan was really happy in his heart.
"Finally, someone knows the goods and knows how extraordinary I Wei Yan is, isn't it?"
It's just that although he was happy in his heart, Wei Yan was a little hesitant about whether he should be called to go or not.
It is true that if he went to join Uncle Liu Huang, he Wei Yan would definitely be able to show his strengths, and he would not be like today, stumbling in Changsha.
However, abandoning the old lord and defecting to the new lord is the practice of the second minister.
Today's Wei Yan is only in his thirties, and more than ten years later, he will do whatever it takes to get ahead.
Moreover, the veteran Huang Zhong has the grace to support him Wei Yan. If he Wei Yanruo abandoned Changsha like this, Wei Yan always felt that he was somewhat sorry for the old general Huang Hansheng.
"Let's go and ask General Huang."
"If the old general doesn't allow me to go, then I won't go, and we can't do anything to be sorry for the old general."
"If the old general allows ......"
Wei Yan was silently thinking in his heart, so he turned around and went to Huang Zhong's house.
