Early the next morning, Li Yan, who had rested all night, barely recovered some of his spirits, listened to the faint sound of horns outside the city, washed his face, hurriedly put on his armor, and rushed to the city wall with his spear. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

When Li Yan arrived on the city wall, he saw that a group of generals had already arrived one step ahead of him, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.

It's just that in the blink of an eye, Li Yan suddenly realized that something was wrong, there was a quiet place outside the city, the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong did not attack, and the generals who should have been scattered around the city wall to be responsible for defense were all gathered together at this moment.

Li Yan stopped, but when he saw that everyone's eyes were looking at him, he raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "The generals are not defending the city everywhere, why are they all gathered here?" ”

"General Li, I'm sorry." Liu Du looked at Li Yan with complicated eyes, clenched his fists slightly, and then his face became fierce, and he said in a deep voice: "Take it!" ”

Immediately, dozens of Jingzhou soldiers who had already been prepared around shouted at the same time and rushed towards Li Yan.

"Do you want to rebel!?" Although Li Yan's martial arts are not as good as Guan Zhang's top generals, he is also superb in martial arts, seeing this, he did not retreat but advanced, and the spear in his hand swept in all directions, forcing everyone to retreat, and at the same time, his personal guards also rushed up and protected Li Yan's surroundings, Li Yan glared at Liu Du angrily and shouted.

"It's not that we are disloyal, it's just the trend of the times, General Pound has promised us that as long as we are willing to surrender, we will not be blamed for the past!" Liu Du arched his hand.

"Ridiculous, he said you would believe it!?" Li Yan laughed angrily and said disdainfully.

"Guanzhong has always been a promise since the champion Hou!" Liu Du shouted: "I'll believe him, soldiers, give it to me!" ”

"A promise?" Li Yan suddenly felt extremely ironic, once upon a time, Lu Bu was synonymous with treachery, since when did his image of a promise begin to be convincing?

Although this is the case, Li Yan naturally did not want to be restrained, and while commanding the guards to resist, he shouted angrily and said: "Have you forgotten the kindness of the lord to you?" ”

"That's for you!" A general sneered: "I don't remember what kindness he Liu Bei had to me, speaking of this Jingzhou, if it weren't for our support, how could there be him Liu Bei today, but since Liu Bei went to Jingzhou, what has he done?" It's only been how long, first hit Luoyang, then Shuzhong, and now he wants to fight Jiangdong and Jingzhou well, what has he been plagued by? Now that he has done his own evil and attracted the champion Hou to fight back, why should we send him to death!? ”

Li Yan couldn't help but be angry when he heard this, Liu Bei didn't want to fight, but had to fight, if he didn't fight, which one of Lu Bu, Cao Cao, and Sun Quan would let him develop with peace of mind, only by fighting, it was possible to play a new situation, and he could gain a firm foothold, but these things, how could he explain to the soldiers?

In the final analysis, Liu Bei's background in Jingzhou is still too shallow, these soldiers just wanted to make up for a long time, and they were sent to the battlefield one after another, and several major battles were all hit by walls everywhere, and failed to achieve any practical results, for a long time, the soldiers were war-weary, and Liu Bei did not have time to appease people's hearts, so that now under the pressure of Guanzhong, so many people have defected.

"General Li, give up, just now, I have ordered someone to open the city gate, and now, the three generals Wei Yan, Pang De, and Hao Zhao are afraid that they have already entered the city!" Liu Du looked at Li Yan, shook his head and said: "If you are willing to surrender now, for the sake of our robes, there can still be a way to live, if those Guanzhong generals come, whether they surrender or not, you can't help it!" ”

At that time, even if Li Yan is willing to surrender, people may not be willing to accept it.

"Hahaha~" Li Yan couldn't help but let out a desolate laugh when he heard this, and said loudly: "If the husband dies, he will die, why talk nonsense, today, there is only Li Yan who died in battle, and there is no general who is desperate and stealing his life!" ”

"Well said!" In a loud cheer, he saw that the surrounding Jingzhou soldiers quickly made way of a passage on the already not spacious city wall, and Wei Yan took Pang De, Hao Zhao and dozens of guards to separate the crowd and walked forward.

"Although it is hostile, it is also a man, I Wei Yan respects you!" Wei Yan smiled at Li Yan.

"Humph!" Looking at Wei Yan, and then at the disgusting smiles on the faces of Liu Du and the others, Li Yan sneered: "Guanzhong is brave, will he only use this despicable means to capture the city?" ”

"Soldiers don't get tired of cheating!" Wei Yan raised his eyebrows, looked at Li Yan and shook his head, "Since it's a war, what means can't be used?" What's more, we can't break the city, but we don't want to lose our lives, so we persuade these soldiers to surrender, General Li might as well ask them to see if they want to fight this battle? ”

The surrounding Jingzhou soldiers who were originally besieging Li Yan silently stopped and pushed aside after Wei Yan and others appeared.

When Li Yan heard this, his face suddenly became ugly, if he was willing to fight, how could he be easily rebelled, in fact, Li Yan also knew that although the Jingzhou Army had now been integrated, the war-weariness had not been eliminated from the beginning.

With a long sigh, Li Yan threw away the spear in his hand, looked at the guards around him, shook his head and said: "Li Yan is incompetent, he failed to seek wealth for everyone, but the tired soldiers sent me to death, Li Yan is ashamed of you, now Li Yan is no longer a general, and everyone is no longer my personal guard, all of them have surrendered!" ”

A group of guards, you look at me, I look at you, and gradually put down the weapons in their hands, Wei Yan saw this, smiled slightly, and was about to say something more, trying to find a way to give Li Yan a step, and persuade this general who could block Pang De under the disadvantage to surrender, but saw Li Yan suddenly pull out the sword on his waist, across his neck, and said: "Although Wancheng is broken, Li Yan is unwilling to be that repeated villain!" ”

After speaking, he pulled the hilt of the sword suddenly, blood splattered, and his body fell down with a bang.

"General!" A group of guards knelt down beside Li Yan and cried bitterly, Liu Du and other generals who had already fallen could not help but feel ashamed when they saw Li Yanning die unyieldingly.

"It's a man, it's a pity!" Pang De glanced at Li Yan's corpse, shook his head and sighed.

Wei Yan nodded, and said left and right: "Pass my general order, collect General Li's corpse, and wait for the day we take Xiangyang, and then return his corpse to his family and bury it!" ”

"General Xie!" A group of Li Yan's guards bowed down and replied.

"General, there is something to make clear at the end." Liu Du thought for a while, stepped forward and bowed.

"Oh?" Wei Yanwen said: "General Liu, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

"Yes." Liu Du nodded hurriedly, bowed and said: "This time Liu Xuande invaded Jiangdong, although he took away most of Jingxiang's soldiers and horses, but Xiangyang is its foundation after all, there are still 20,000 garrisons there, that Xiangyang guard Wang Wei, and the last general also has some friendship, if the general can trust the last general, the last general is willing to go to Xiangyang, persuade him to return to the general, but the soldiers will take Xiangyang without blood." ”

"Wang Wei?" Wei Yan nodded, then shook his head with a smile and said: "General Liu's intentions, Wei Yan's heart, but this Xiangyang matter, General Liu doesn't have to worry about it, it's not that he can't trust General Liu, but at this moment, Xiangyang may have been taken, and we just need to bring the army to Xiangyang." ”

"Oh?" When Liu Du heard this, his face showed a shocked look, Guanzhong had not captured Nanyang, and he had already stretched out his hand to Xiangyang, thinking about Liu Du felt shuddering, if they really fought to the death, I am afraid that it would not be long before Wancheng would run out of food, and after calming down his mood, he hurriedly smiled and said: "The general is clever, and the general admires it." ”

"This is not the general's credit, the lord has already started to arrange it before he set out for the expedition." Wei Yan shook his head and said indifferently, he can't get this prestige, not to mention that it is not his own, even if it is Wei Yan's strategy, at this time, the prestige has to be pushed to Lu Bu.

When the generals of Jing Xiang heard this, they couldn't help but show admiration, Lu Bu's name has long been crowned in the world, and at this moment, people can't help but admire.

……

Xiangyang, time went back to half a month ago, and the news of Guan Yuqu's defeat had not yet come.

In the past, Cai's mansion was like a city, with Cai Mao's death, and now he is not satisfied with the past pomp, although later because Cai's remarried to Liu Bei, Cai's family was guaranteed, but the head of the four great families in the past has only fallen to the point of surviving, Cai He has no ability to Cai Mao, but the Cai family withered, so he had to take over the position of patriarch, but now the Cai family is declining, even if there is Mrs. Cai's secret help, but Liu Bei is different from Liu Biao, women's words for Liu Bei, not much care, not starvation, But if you want to soar, there is no hope, after all, some of the new families under Liu Bei are all suppressed by the Cai family in the past, and now that they are out, they naturally spare no effort to suppress them in turn, making it difficult for the Cai family to rise now, and it is a little difficult to keep the family business.

"Master, there is a gentleman outside the door, who claims to be the old man of the lord and wants to see the lord." On this day, Cai He was resting in the house, and the old housekeeper suddenly came in and said.

"The deceased?" Cai He frowned, since Liu Bei was in charge of Jingzhou, the Cai family didn't say that it was a big deal, but it was almost the same, those families who were attached to the Cai family in the past are now thinking about getting rid of the relationship with the Cai family, at this time, what other old people are willing to come to visit?

"Who is it?" Cai He frowned.

"No, but I said that I came back from Luoyang on business, passed by Caifu, and came to see me." The old butler bowed.

"Luoyang, doing business?" Cai He's brain is not as bright as Mrs. Cai and Cai Mao, but he is not stupid, he has been mixed in Jingzhou officialdom for many years, and some things can naturally be self-taught, and now Liu Bei has almost emptied Jingxiang's troops, but at this time, an old man from Luoyang came to visit, so he had to have a few different thoughts.

"Invite him in......" Cai He thought for a while and said, "Study narration." ”

"Yes." The old housekeeper nodded, and the study narrated, this is generally a good friendship person will be received in the study, it seems that the person who came is indeed a real friend of the Cai family.

Think about it, if you are not a real friend, who wants to come to Fortune at this time?
