Chapter 611: Righteous Interpretation of Yan Yan
Nanzheng was broken, from Dingjun Mountain to Nanzheng in the first battle, 70,000 Shu troops were killed more than 10,000, more than 20,000 escaped, and the remaining nearly 40,000 people became prisoners of the Yan army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Shu Han generals Lei Tong, Li Hui and Chen Shi were beheaded, and Wu Ban and Yan Yan were captured.
Nan Zheng Cheng, prison.
Yan Yan, a veteran of Shu Han, sat in the straw with shackles, he was sixty years old, his beard was gray, and his face was haggard, but his eyes were still bright, full of stubbornness and unyielding.
From Chencang Road to Dingjun Mountain, and then to the Battle of Nanzheng, in less than a month, the Yan army captured the land of Hanzhong, whether it was a conspiracy or a conspiracy, the strength of the Yan people was indeed terrifying, so terrible that Shu Han had almost no power to fight back. The only hope is to rely on the danger of the mountains and mountains to hold on, so that the Yan people who are not good at mountain warfare know the difficulties and retreat, but now, the Yan people destroy the city and conquer everything, and the danger of the mountains alone may not be able to hold it.
The Yan people swept the thirteen states of the world, Cao Cao, Er Yuan and Jiangdong Sun were all defeated, and the days of Shu Han in a corner of peace should come to an end.
Thinking of this, Yan Yan sighed slightly.
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
Outside the prison, there was a loud shout, and Yan Yan raised his head slightly.
With the sound of neat footsteps, a group of tiger ben in bright red robes, each with a long knife at their waists, stepped into the prison solemnly and neatly, and then gave way one after another.
Immediately afterwards, a person dressed in white like snow, surrounded by a cadre of civil servants and military generals, came suddenly, it was Emperor Yan's grandson Bai.
Bang dang~
The prison door was opened, and Gongsun Bai led himself into the prison alone, standing in front of Yan Yan, with a bright smile on his face: "Old General Yan, suffer!" ”
Yan Yan slowly stood up, facing this Emperor Yan who reigned over the world, he just bowed his hand slightly: "I've seen General Gongsun." ”
In the eyes of those Han Dynasty elders, Gongsun Bai's most justified official is the general, because it is the gift of the orthodox Han Emperor Liu Xie, as for the King of Yan in the back, and even Emperor Yan, it is naturally not countable.
"Yan Yan, 77 commanders, 82 martial arts, 69 intelligence, 67 politics, 87 health, and 85 loyalty to Liu Bei."
Gongsun Bai smiled faintly, drew his sword suddenly, and pointed directly at Yan Yan. Yan Yan's eyes were like torches, looking at Gongsun Bai tightly, without the slightest fear,

The long sword flashed, the shackles fell to the ground, Yan Yan's whole body was light, his hands had regained his freedom, he unconsciously showed a puzzled look, looked at Gongsun Bai puzzled, opened his mouth to say something, but didn't say anything.
Gongsun Bai smiled indifferently: "The so-called Ming people don't say dark words, I came today to persuade the old general to surrender, and I ask the old general to think twice." ”
Yan Yan's face tensed, and he sneered: "The old man is a Han Chen, how can he be a pseudo-Yan country?" ”
Yan Yan's reaction was naturally expected by Gongsun Bai, who was still not annoyed or angry, and said slowly: "Emperor Xiaoyi, I have been given the title of royal brother, and I have always admired him; Emperor Xiaokang gave me the title of King of Yan, and I have always regarded him as my father. Today's situation, I really can't help myself. The people are precious, the monarch is light, and the society is secondary, and the Xiaokang Emperor gave way to me, but for the sake of the world, how dare I not be afraid to follow? What's wrong with me? ”
Yan Yan's expression was slightly moved, and he thought about it carefully: "If Your Majesty had originally used the Yan Dynasty as the Han Dynasty and set up another Han clan as the emperor, it might have a reputation for eternity and unlimited wealth. ”
Gongsun Bai smiled and asked, "There are so many Han clans in the world, who will be indisputable?" I set up the Han clan and the Taifu of the dynasty as the emperor, but Sun Ce established Liu Ping as the emperor, and Liu Biao called himself the emperor, all of them are the clan relatives of the Han family, who is the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty? ”
Without waiting for Yan Yan to answer, Gongsun Bai asked again: "If the clan relatives of the Han family are quite famous today, Liu Bei, but the old general asks himself, even if I support Liu Bei as the emperor, can Liu Bei's ability to govern the world be better than me?" ”
"What's more, even if I support Liu Bei as the emperor, the old general has passed the age of sixties, when he knows the world's affairs, can Liu Bei tolerate me?"
asked three questions in a row, and Yan Yan was speechless.
Gongsun Bai continued: "Xia, Shang, and Qin died due to brutality, Zhou died due to separation, and Han died because of the lack of Taoism at the time of Huan Ling. ”
“……”
In the end, Gongsun Bai's voice became stern: "Now that I have occupied the thirteen states in the world, Liu Bei's mantis arm is used as a car, trying to survive, how long can it last?" After a few years, the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment, and the four seas are peaceful, who will never forget the previous dynasty? At that time, the heroes of my Dayan will all shine on the lintel, and those who die for Shu Han will inevitably decline, and who will pity them? The old general has passed the age of sixties, and when he knows the world, there is no need to say much. ”
After Gongsun Bai finished speaking, he pointed to Yan Yan towards the prison door: "If the old general still insists on being loyal to Shu Han, I will not be reluctant, the old general can directly take the horse and leave, and go to Shuzhong, no one will stop him!" ”
"Poof!"
Yan Yan fell to his knees and said respectfully: "I am willing to serve Your Majesty for the work of dogs and horses, and I will live and die!" ”
Gongsun Bai finally let out a long breath in his heart.
When he came in, Yan Yan's loyalty was 85, but every time he said a word later, Yan Yan's loyalty would drop by 10 points, so the more he talked, the more he said, Zhang Fei could convince this veteran that he was the emperor of Yan who reigned in the world, if he still said that he was not convinced of Yan Yan, wouldn't it be a big shame?
**************************
Dusk, Guancheng (Yang'an Pass).
Like the remnant sun of blood, the afterglow spilled obliquely on the Guan Lou, shining on the bright knives and guns, and the defenders who had been guarding the Guan Lou for a day also breathed a sigh of relief. There was a look of tiredness on his face.
Since Emperor Yan's grandson Bai Zhengshu, the gate of Guancheng has been closed. It is forbidden to enter and exit, and the guards are even more vigilant day and night. Prevent the Yan army from attacking this pass after breaking through Hanzhong, after all, this pass is a barrier before Xia Meng Pass.
"The enemy is coming!" Suddenly, there were defenders screaming loudly on the upper floor.
All the soldiers hurriedly raised their heads and looked ahead.
I saw that at the intersection of heaven and earth in the distance, a black line was rolling in, and it could be vaguely seen that it was a large group of military horses rushing.
"Be on guard, meet the enemy! Hurry up and inform the two generals of Koseki! The guards on the tower shouted.
There was a big chaos on the city tower, the arrow battlements were full of bows and arrows, and the rolling stones and timbers pushed down the female wall, and the Shu army on the city tower quickly entered the state of battle.
Several small colonels flew downstairs and galloped to Guannei to inform Guan Ping and Guan Suo brothers.
This is the only way to Xiameng Pass, Zhuge Liang did not dare to trust others, and let the two sons of Guan Erye's family guard this pass, which shows that he attaches great importance to it.
Smoke and dust billowed out, and the oncoming military horses got closer and closer, gradually revealing their true faces.
This team of about five or six thousand military horses, all of them were wearing the clothes and armor of the Shu army, all of them were messy, dusty, the team had no formation, the flags were rolled upside down, and they rushed to the city like a swarm, looking like they had lost their armor and lost the battle.
The first was a gray-haired veteran, covered in blood, dragging a long knife backwards, and the cloak behind him was draped diagonally, as if it was about to fall off if it was not fastened, looking very embarrassed.
The guard on the upper floor looked at the general with a surprised face and said, "It's General Yan, is it that Nan Zheng has been broken?" ”
The military horses on the opposite side gradually rushed closer to the city, and the guard hurriedly shouted: "It's our military horse, don't let go of the arrows!" ”
Yan Yan dragged his sword and rode his horse, galloped to the bottom of the gate, and shouted loudly: "I am Yan Yan, the general of Zhendong, quickly open the city gate!" ”
The guard general said in embarrassment: "Old General Yan, this matter is too small to be the master, I have sent someone to ask General Guan, please don't be impatient." ”
Yan Yan was furious: "The enemy army is near, if we can't enter the city gate and are broken by the enemy, can you afford it?" ”
When the guard general was in a dilemma, he heard a shout from behind him: "General Guan has arrived!" ”
The soldiers on the Guan Tower got out of the way, Guan Ping and Guan Suo had distinct armor, holding big knives in their hands, and strode up towards the Guan Tower one after the other.
Guan Ping and Guan Suo walked to the city wall and looked under the Guan Tower, and the two couldn't help but be shocked. Guan Ping asked eagerly: "Uncle Yan, why is this situation, could it be that Nan Zheng has broken it?" ”
Yan Yan's face was full of pain, and he raised his head and sighed: "General Wu failed to hold Dingjun Mountain, and we rushed to the aid of a hundred miles, but we were caught off guard by the Yan cavalry who had broken through Dingjun Mountain, and then the Yan army took the opportunity to break through Nanzheng City in one fell swoop, and now the two generals Wu and Chen Shi, Lei Tong, Li Hui and other generals have all died, and only Yan and these soldiers are left, Yan can't stand Your Majesty......"
Guan Ping saw that his beard was unkempt and his whole body was covered in blood, and he looked extremely embarrassed. It's his own elders again, where do you dare to blame. Hurriedly comforted: "Uncle don't have to feel guilty, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, uncle returned safely, the little nephew is very happy, this opens the city gate for uncle." ”
The city gate slowly rose, and Guan Ping and Guan Suo led their troops out of the city to meet Yan Yan.
The two galloped to Yan Yan ten steps away, turned over and dismounted, and strode towards Yan Yan.
Yan Yan and the others rushed closer. Then he dismounted with his sword and went up.
Guan Ping hurriedly bent down and bowed: "Uncle has worked hard all the way." ”
Guan Suo, who was following Guan Ping, was just about to bend down to salute, when he suddenly saw the murderous intent in Yan Yan's eyes, and hurriedly exclaimed: "Brother, be careful!" ”
It's a pity that it was too late, and I saw the long knife in Yan Yan's hand slash through a snowy light, slashing towards Guan Ping's head who bent down to worship.
Between the lightning and flint, Guan Ping couldn't dodge and hurriedly turned his head away.
Burst!
The nail leaf sounded, and the powerful long knife slashed away from Guan Ping's helmet. Rubbing his scalp and slashing diagonally on his right shoulder, he heard only the sound of bones shattering and blood bursting out.
Guan Ping suffered a heavy blow to his shoulder, and his body retreated again and again. Holding the wound on his shoulder with one hand, he pointed at Yan Yan with the other and roared: "How dare the old thief do this!" ”
Guan Suo behind him had already flown up, kicking Yan Yan in the chest with a heavy kick in the air. The kick made Yan Yan retreat again and again, and he fell to the ground. The big knife in his hand also fell to the ground.
Guan Ping hurriedly turned around and shouted: "Kill!" ”
Guan Suo also picked up the long knife on the ground, the sword was as bright as snow, and slashed at Yan Yan on the ground viciously.
