Chapter Twenty-Eight: Wen Yang Surrenders

Chen Lin had to take the warriors in Chenggu County as an internal response, and successfully captured Chenggu County, only the defender led more than 1,000 people to escape, and the battle went smoothly, Chen Lin was not in a bad mood. However, in Baozhong County in the south of Hanzhong County, Yang Kai was not so cheerful, Zhang Xiu attacked Baozhong County for several days, Yang Kai now has less than 2,000 soldiers, and the situation is precarious. The letter sent by Yang Kai to Chen Lin asking for surrender still did not reply, and Yang Kai's heart was gloomy.

On this day, after blocking Zhang Xiu's attack regardless of casualties, he returned to the palace, and suddenly a cronie reported that a scout had been hung up from the south of the city in a basket during the day, and it was the person who had gone to contact Lord Taishou who had returned. Yang Kai happily scolded his cronies: "Why don't you say it earlier, go, call to see you quickly." After a while, the messenger handed Chen Lin's reply to Yang Kai, and Yang Kai couldn't wait to read it. Then he laughed and said to Yang Bai in a loud voice: "Lord Taishou wants me to hold on for a few days, hahaha, that is to say, Lord Taishou agrees to the service of my Yang family, haha, the sky will not destroy my Yang family." ”

After laughing, Yang Kai said to Yang Bai again: "Gongmei, quickly inform the three armies, just say that Lord Taishou has sent troops to rescue, and reinforcements are coming, and at the same time order the whole army to strictly guard, no matter what, we must also hold the county seat of Baozhong, this is the only gift from my Yang family to Lord Taishou, my Yang family's foundation has suffered a lot, and this city must not be lost." Yang Bai promised to go down to deal with it.

In Chenggu County, the government office, Chen Lin and Jia Xu and others are discussing, and Jia Xu is analyzing the situation in Hanzhong for Chen Lin: "Lord, please look at the map, now Xicheng and Chenggu are in the hands of our army, and our army has stabilized its foothold in Nanzheng Six Counties." Now Zhang Xiu is afraid that he will soon know that Chenggu is lost, as long as Zhang Xiu still has a trace of sanity, he will immediately send Baozhong County to withdraw his troops and return to Nanzheng. That Yang Dazhan is at the end of his rope in Baozhong County, and he will surrender to the lord, so that Baozhong County will also become owned by our army. At that time, he suggested that the lord should strictly guard against Nanzheng, and since Baozhong County took the lead from the southwest to attack or force land in the two counties of Chuyang and Anyang, isolating Nanzheng, even if Zhang Xiu had the ability to reach the sky, he could not escape the hands of the lord. ”

Chen Lin saw that Jia Xu's analysis was the first way, and he was worthy of being a military strategist, so Chen Lin continued Jia Xu's words and said: "Wenhe's plan is feasible, but now he has to send someone to investigate Zhang Xiu's movements, if there is no big accident, Baozhong County will open the door and surrender, for this Yang Dazhan, I don't know what Wenhe has to teach?" "How to settle Yang Kai, Chen Lin actually has a rough idea in his heart, but he still doesn't forget to ask, maybe Jia Xu can give him better advice.

Jia Xu said: "Lord, the arrangement of this Wen Yang Yang Exhibition, presumably the lord has already made arrangements, so he will not be ugly." Jia Xu and Chen Lin have discussed Yang Kai's disposition more than once, and there is nothing to add at this time. So Chen Lin ordered to pay close attention to the movements of Zhang Xiu's army, as soon as Zhang Xiu withdrew from the siege of Baozhong County, he immediately began to take over Baozhong County, and Yan Pu was already on his way from Shangyong to the six western counties of Hanzhong.

Because many of Zhang Xiu's troops escaped in Chenggu County, the news of the destruction of Chenggu City soon came to Zhang Xiu's camp, and Zhang Xiu fell to the ground in a hurry, frightening the people of the Wudoumi Sect who were in a hurry, patting them on the back and pinching people. Zhang Xiucai woke up in a daze, and said weakly: "Withdraw the army, go back to Nanzheng, Mojiao Xiaoer even stole Nanzheng." In this way, Zhang Xiu's nearly 10,000 troops were not allowed to leave Baozhong County and drive back to Nanzheng.

When the defenders on the wall of Baozhong County saw Zhang Xiu's army dispatching, they thought it was a siege, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly reported to Yang Kai and his son. Yang Kai's father and son also hurriedly ran up the city wall, but at a glance, they saw that the direction of Zhang Xiu's army was not to himself, but to go away, Yang Bai didn't know what to do: "Father, what kind of plan is this Zhang Xiu doing, is it to trick me and others out of the city?" Yang Kai looked at it and laughed and said: "This is not Zhang Xiu's plan, it must be Lord Taishou's move, Zhang Xiu has withdrawn the army, and the thief army has withdrawn." The last sentence was shouted to the defenders of the city, and for a while the city wall cheered endlessly, and many sergeants threw away their swords and sat on the city wall weakly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

An hour later, seeing that Zhang Xiu's army seemed to be far away, Yang Kai dared to ask the team to open the city gate and go to investigate, but the scouts reported that Zhang Xiu's army had really withdrawn. Yang Kai was relieved, and after a while, Chen Lin's spies also found out that Zhang Xiu had withdrawn his troops, so the spies shouted under the county seat of Baozhong: "A certain is a scout under the command of Taishou, can there be Yang Dazhan and Master Yang in the city?" Yang Kai hadn't gone down to the city at this time, but he happened to hear it, and hurriedly ordered the sergeant to open the city gate and let Chen Lin's spies in.

The spy didn't say much when he entered the city, but simply said that Chen Lin had captured Chenggu, and now he was reorganizing his army in Chenggu to appease the people, and the spy finally asked: "I don't know why Master Yang went to meet my lord Taishou?" Yang Bai was about to get angry, but Yang Kai's hand was quickly held down, Yang Kai said to the spy: "Please report to Lord Taishou, just say that the old man will settle down in Baozhong County a little, and immediately go to Chenggu County to meet Taishou." ”

After the spies left, Yang Kai slapped Yang Bai and said angrily: "Vertical nonsense, are you still the same as before, when Taishou has to be polite to my Yang family?" Chen Taishou is the lifesaver of my Yang family, and now that the situation is very clear, Chen Taishou will be able to control the whole county of Hanzhong in a few days. My Yang family will become a chaotic minister and thief if he is not careful, and the second Yang in Hanzhong is afraid that he will become a Yang in Hanzhong. Alas, that Yang Wufu's power is not reduced now, and he helped Taishou to become the master of Hanzhong, and he has made a lot of contributions, how can his Yang family compete with it, alas, Bai'er remember, Taishou is the hope of my Yang family, presumably Taishou does not want to see Yang Wufu's family dominant. For his father, he wanted to go to Chuyang County to persuade Chuyang County to surrender, which was also a great achievement, Bai'er went to Chenggu County to meet Lord Taishou on behalf of his father, and said that he was going to be his father, showing that my Yang family was loyal, and Bai'er could worship Taishou as the lord. "Yang Kai is putting his life on Chen Lin, who let Yang Kai escape from Nanzheng, let Zhang Xiu clear Yang Kai's forces, now Yang Kai is as big as before. And Yang Jun's family is on a higher level, and Yang Kai can only hold Chen Lin's thigh like this in order to survive.

So on the second day, Yang Kai went to Weiyang, and Yang Bai went to Chenggu to meet Chen Lin. In Chenggu County, Chen Lin looked at Yang Bai who was kneeling on the ground, but he didn't see Yang Kai, and asked: "Young Master Yang, why didn't your father come to see so-and-so, do you want to go to Baozhong County to visit in person, a certain is timid, if you go to Baozhong County, you must have more people to accompany you." Chen Lin was a little angry, Yang Kai didn't come, he really wanted Chen Lin to bring the army to go before he would stop.

Yang Bai got Yang Kai's orders and figured out the key, so he hurriedly explained everything, and said that Yang Kai went to Chuyang, and finally Yang Bai bowed again: "The lord is above, Bai is willing to serve the lord as the master, saddle the horse before and after, and lead the horse and whip the lord." Yang Bai's sudden behavior frightened a room of people, especially Yang Ren, who was watching the excitement, Yang Ren was shrewd, and he could understand at a glance that Yang Bai was going to hug Chen Lin's thighs, Yang Ren's heart fluctuated, and he suddenly made a decision, pulled his younger brother Yang Ang, and knelt down together, and said to Chen Lin: "The lord is above, and Brother Ren is also willing to worship the lord and guard the Quartet for the lord." ”

Yang Ren could see Yang Bai's intentions, let alone Jia Xu and Chen Lin, but he couldn't think of Yang Bai's worship, but it stimulated the Wu Yang brothers, and suddenly Chen Lin's heart was full of joy, smiled at Jia Xu, and helped the three of them up one by one with a big laugh. Yang Bai turned his head at Brother Yang Ren with a black face, snorted, and Chen Lin pretended to be angry and said: "From now on, you and the others are ministers in the same court, and you must not fight with each other, if you find it, you will be severely punished." The three of them hurriedly knelt down again, and even said that they didn't dare.

So Chen Lin appointed Yang Kai as the commander of Nanzheng County on the spot, leaving Yang Bai by his side to listen to it, Yang Bai knew that the Yang family was carefree and in a good mood, but Yang Ren's brother was unhappy. Yang Jun has already said that he can't say anything, so now Wu Yang is basically Yang Ren has the final say, and Wen Yang Yang Kai didn't say that, so Chen Lin directly appointed him as the commander of Nanzheng County, which can be regarded as giving a reassuring pill Wen Yang.

After everyone retreated, only Chen Lin and Jia Xu remained, and the two commanders were naturally there, Chen Lin and Jia Xu looked at each other and laughed. Jia Xu said hello again and again, Chen Lin praised Jia Xu again and again for his outstanding strategy, and after a while, Chen Lin gave an order: "Baozhong County has fallen, Huang Yan, ordered Gao Shun to lead Yang Gongmei to Baozhong County to take over, Baozhong now has two thousand troops, stay in Yang Dazhan's hands, I am uneasy, Baozhong County can only keep 1,000 as county soldiers, and the rest will be incorporated and supplemented to various departments." Huang Yan consulted with Wen He and elected one person to serve as the county lieutenant and immediately execute. ”

After Chen Lin finished giving the order, Jia Xu hurriedly added: "Lord, now that Yang Dazhan is willing to go to persuade Chuyang County, the lord is also ready to take over Chuyang." Xu suggested that the lord leave Yang Jiwei and Sima's department to defend Chenggu, and the lord personally went to attack Anyang County, as long as Yang Dazhan can successfully persuade Weiyang, our army will capture Anyang, and Nanzheng is a lonely city, and the lord will deal with it at that time. ”

Chen Lin was in a good mood when he heard it: "I have been in Hanzhong County for half a year, and it is time to return the people of Hanzhong to a Qingping, now the Han Dynasty is full of smoke, and the imperial army retreats again and again in Xiliang, only General Dong has made achievements, and the Southern Xiongnu have been in chaos since they were sent 30,000 to quell the rebellion in Yuyang, and the entire state has suffered from it." What the hell is wrong with my big man? ”

Jia Xu already had a relatively clear understanding of the Han Dynasty in his heart, but it was not good to say it to Chen Linming, so Jia Xu had no choice but to say: "Lord, it doesn't matter what happens outside, the lord is the Taishou of Hanzhong County, but he wants to protect a happy land in Hanzhong." When Chen Lin heard Jia Xu say this, he suddenly rekindled his fighting spirit and regained his fighting spirit, and said with a smile: "Exactly, so you still need to rely on Yang Wenhe and you to help." Next to him, Huang Yan, Zhou Cang, and Jia Xu hurriedly knelt down and said loudly: "I am willing to serve the Lord and drive." ”
