Chapter 638: Yan Yan Surrenders
Li Yan couldn't hear the voice of Yan Yan's words, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and said authentically: "Good birds choose trees to perch, and good ministers choose ......."
"That's enoughβ" Yan Yan interrupted his words, "Zhengfang, I have taught you more than once, one horse is not worthy of two saddles, loyal ministers are not two masters, since you have turned a deaf ear and bowed your knees and betrayed, what kind of face do you have to come to see me?" Today, I wanted to behead you, but thinking of the past feelings, I will spare your life, and after I go back, I will tell Liu Ze, the land in Shu is not all renegade and discouraged young people, Yan swears to live and die with the White Emperor City! β
"Teacher, why are you doing this?" Li Yan's face changed, Yan Yan's loyalty and uprightness were also famous among the generals in Shuzhong, but Li Yan didn't want him to die in the chaos of the army so much, so he was buried with Liu Zhang.
Yan Yan said with a smile: "Zhengfang, people are inherently dead, or heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than Hongmao, I also know that the White Emperor City will definitely not be able to hold it, but I am over the age of six, time is short, it is impossible to carry a disloyal and unrighteous infamy to enter the coffin, you can secretly surrender, but I can't, only fight to the death and serve the lord!" Let's go, today is also the end of the friendship between you and my teachers and students, see you on the battlefield in the future, don't blame me for being ruthless! β
Li Yan said loudly: "Teacher, you are loyal to Liu Zhang's father and son, but what did you get in exchange?" More than ten years of abandoning other counties, more than ten years have not been reused, in terms of ability and qualifications, who in Shu can match? But now, Wu Yi and Liu Bi, these mediocre people, can ride on your head and be good at Weifu, teacher, is it worth it for Liu Zhang to serve you like this? There are so many sons and daughters who followed you from birth to death, but they also had to give their lives for Liu Zhang in vain, teacher, do you think it's worth it? β
Yan Yan's body trembled, his expression changed greatly, Li Yan's words touched the most sensitive nerve in his heart, Yan Yan was born in Yizhou. Can be used to war, repeatedly made miraculous achievements, but has not been reused, from the captain of the lieutenant to the county guard, has never re-entered Liu Zhang's power core, which has a great relationship with Liu Yan Liu Zhang's father and son's reuse of the Dongzhou system and suppression of the local forces in Yizhou. Although Yan Yan was born as a military general. It doesn't have much to do with the real Yizhou wealthy clan, but after all, he is still from Yizhou, and the Liu father and son, who are foreign forces, are obviously extremely hostile to the local forces in Yizhou, which also makes Yan Yanchang sigh to himself.
Li Yan saw that Yan Yan was silent, and knew that Fang Cai's words hit Yan Yan's vital point, so he stepped forward and said, "King Jing Liu Ze is the emperor's uncle today." After Liu Zhang is also a clan, Ran Rende is a hundred times better than Liu Zhang. Now the Jing army is a benevolent and righteous army to crusade against the national thief Cao Cao, but Liu Zhang is aiding and abusing him, and he refuses to take advantage of King Jing, and there is a disaster of swords and soldiers in Yifang Prefecture. The teacher is first of all the people of the Han Dynasty, and then he is Liu Zhang's courtier, and now King Jing represents the son of today. It is the righteousness of the Great Dao, and the reason why the students return to King Jing. Gai is because of righteousness, not greedy for life, afraid of death, greedy for power. What's more, King Jing knows that people are good at using people, appointing people on the basis of merit, and the people of Jingxu are all loved, and thousands of people return to their hearts. With the talent of a teacher, why not fight on the battlefield and make a great contribution! β
Yan Yanmu stood for a long time, sighed faintly, and said, "I'm old." There is no ambition to conquer the world anymore. You go to tell Liu Ze that if he can pardon the lives of 20,000 soldiers in the White Emperor City, Yan is willing to give the head. β
Li Yan couldn't help but be secretly happy when he heard that Yan Yan no longer insisted on defending the White Emperor City, and said: "When the students came, King Jing had already said that as long as the teacher was willing to surrender, there would be no grass and trees in the White Emperor City, and there would be no crime in autumn. The teacher has never seen King Jing, King Jing is magnanimous and elegant, modest and generous, by no means comparable to Liu Zhang, after the teacher surrenders, he will be reused by King Jing, even if the teacher is no longer willing to be an official, and wants to return to the field, the student will definitely be able to promote the teacher's wishes. β
Yan Yan sighed, stomped his feet and said: "If it's not that I'm unfaithful, I can't bear to see the blood of the sons who have followed me from birth to death for many years stained the White Emperor, it's just that, even if it is infamous through the ages, I Yan Yan will bear it." β
Li Yan was overjoyed, so he and Yan Yan conspired to open the city and surrender, and Yan Yan personally went to Liu Ze's royal tent to ask for guilt.
After Liu Ze heard the news, he personally went out of the camp to greet him, treated Yan Yan as a guest, and was crowned Yan Yan as the general of the Auxiliary Han Dynasty, still commanding the old department. Yan Yan felt his sincerity and knew that Liu Ze was the lord of benevolence, so he surrendered sincerely and no longer mentioned the matter of unloading his armor and returning to the field.
After taking the White Emperor City, the Jing army met together, and Huang Zhong, Xu Rong, Gan Ning, and Wei Yan came together to meet Liu Ze. Liu Ze summoned the generals to discuss the matter of marching into Chengdu in the big tent.
Yan Yan took the lead and said: "From the White Emperor to Deyang, it belongs to Ba County, and all those who guard the imperial pass are under the jurisdiction of Yan. Now I feel the great grace of King Jing, there is no way to repay, a wish is the front, and everywhere I go, I call out to surrender. β
Liu Ze was overjoyed, so he ordered Yan Yan and Zhao Yun to be the vanguard, and transferred from the White Emperor to Bajun and took Deyang directly. Huang Zhong and Xu Rong's troops followed Liu Ze's subsequent expedition, and the generals Fa Zheng, Meng Da, Wu Yi, and Li Yan also went on the expedition together, while Gan Ning led the naval army all the way along the river and marched to Deyang from the waterway.
Yan Yan's surrender made the Jing army uninjured and took the important town of Baidi lightly, completely opened the gate of eastern Sichuan, more than 100,000 Jing troops flocked into Sichuan, and the balance of the entire Bashu campaign began to tilt towards Liu Ze's side, and the attack and defense were easy, and the days when Liu Zhang led Chengdu were already numbered. Due to the quick victory in the White Emperor, Liu Ze also won enough time to march into Chengdu, although Zhang Ren had been stationed in Deyang more than ten days ago, and later Liu Xi's remnants also retreated to Deyang, but only about half a month, Zhang Ren could rebuild the almost destroyed Deyang City? Liu Ze had a faint smile in his heart, this time he went to Chengdu, it would be a dry and devastating journey, and no one could stop him from moving forward anymore.
The discussion lasted until late at night, and after the details were finalized on the expedition, Liu Ze announced the adjournment of the meeting, allowing all the generals to go back to rest and prepare for the opening early tomorrow morning.
When he returned to the sleeping tent, there was a dark light in the tent, Liu Ze was slightly surprised, but he did not call the guards, but walked straight to the table, groped for the flint, and was about to light the candle on the table, when he heard the wind in his ears, and a black shadow came straight to him. Liu Ze's heart sank, and he said secretly: There are assassins! He flashed sideways and avoided the other party's sharp kick, but he didn't fight back with the killer, but took the other party in his arms, because he had already smelled the familiar fragrance, and said with a smile: "What? Still thinking about murdering your husband? β
Sun Shangxiang didn't get up in his arms, and said angrily: "It's so boring, and you have seen through it again!" β
Liu Ze lit the candle on the table, looked at Sun Shangxiang, who was dressed in military uniform, and said with a smile: "It's the same every time, the body fragrance on your body betrays you." Hey, you've all been promoted to generals? Liu Ze noticed that the title badge on her chest was a blue star on a silver background.
Sun Shangxiang showed off her figure, although she was wearing a military uniform, she couldn't hide the grace of her figure, she said with a light smile: "In this way, Mrs. Ben is now the first female general in the world." "After Sun Shangxiang married Liu Ze, there were thousands of maids and maids she married, Sun Shangxiang has been martial arts since childhood, and all the maids around her are also martial arts. Liu Zezhi did not refuse, not only did she enlist her maids in the army, and set up a women's independent brigade, which was directly under the First Army, and she was the captain, and Zhang Fei's wife Xiahou Juan was transferred to be Sima and named the "Women's Brigade".
It's just that when Liu Ze went out on the expedition, Sun Shangxiang was still just a brigadier general and lieutenant, but she didn't expect that after half a year, she was promoted to the rank of general, presumably operated by Jia Xu behind the scenes.
Liu Ze smiled, stepped forward to take her hand, and said, "What a heroic female general, but I don't know how the kung fu is in the Veila tent?" β
Sun Shangxiang couldn't help but blush, and said angrily: "You men don't have a proper shape, and when you meet, you don't have anything else but to think about that?" β
Liu Ze looked at her with spring eyebrows, her eyes were full of affection, and she scolded in her mouth, but it was a half-push and half-made gesture, he hadn't been beaten by a woman for more than half a year, so he couldn't help but be emotional, hugged her horizontally, and walked towards the Jinluo tent behind.
"Xiao Nizi, who made you hit the muzzle of the gun tonight, a long absence is better than a newlywed, and the Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold......"
"Don't worry, people's armor hasn't taken off ...... yet" Sun Shangxiang just shouted half a sentence, and then stopped speaking, her cherry mouth had been tightly blocked by Liu Ze. (To be continued......)
