Tied with hemp rope all over his body, standing behind Liu Wei, Gongsun Fan frowned, looking at the Luoyang Army battle flag fluttering in the wind on the head of Yixian County in the distance, his face was full of heavy shame and resentment.

"Do you know why this king let you go?" Holding the hilt of the sword with one hand, his back to the sparkling Yi Shui, and looking at the Yixian city wall in the distance like Gongsun Fan, Liu Wei asked Gongsun Fan expressionlessly.

was asked by Liu Wei, Gongsun Fan trembled, lowered his head, looked at his toes, and didn't even dare to raise his head, for fear of being seen The heavy resentment on his face.

"This king has been fighting for a long time, and it has never been so easy to conquer the city!" Without even glancing at Gongsun Fan, a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of Liu Wen's mouth, and without waiting for Gongsun Fan to respond, he said to him: "Yi Shui is bitter cold, you wait to occupy the north shore and stick to the natural danger." As long as you command it properly, there is no suspense in this battle! Yishui swings for hundreds of miles, you only need to put more eyeliner along the coast, and send information instantly, if this king wants to break through Yishui, even if the soldiers are strong and strong, they are all powerful and have nowhere to show. Especially if you rely on Yi County, even if Yi County is short of grain and grass, you can transfer it from the nearby city as soon as possible, but in fact, it is only three days later, you and others will lose the riverbank, almost giving up Yi County, and the grain and grass in the city will hardly move. With such combat power, I'm afraid that even a bunch of chaotic people are inferior to ......"

Having said this, Liu Wei turned his head, maintained that contemptuous smile on his face, looked at Gongsun Fan, and said to him: "If Gongsun Chan is under the command of Gongsun Zhan, just like the general, this king will attack Gongsun Chan, and it will not be more than ten months!" With such a mediocre talent, how can this king bear to be killed? ”

Gongsun Fan, who lowered his head, listened to Liu Bian's words, his face was red and white for a while, and he suddenly raised his head, glared at Liu Bian and shouted: "The last general is defeated, His Royal Highness can only order someone to cut a sword on the neck of the last general, such a humiliation, is it a hero's doing?" ”

"Heroes?" Liu Wei turned his head, his eyes turned to Yi County again, the contemptuous look on his face was even stronger, after repeating the word "hero", he didn't say anything more, and was silent for a while before raising his feet and walking towards the Yi County city wall where the battle flag of the Luoyang Army was flying.

"Let this man go!" After walking a few steps, Liu Wei gave a faint order to the several personal soldiers who followed behind him.

The soldiers responded in unison, turned around, and ran back to Gongsun Fan's side, and as soon as two of them arrived behind Gongsun Fan, they started to help him untie the rope.

As soon as the rope was untied before Gongsun Fan's arms could move, he took advantage of the unpreparedness of one of his own soldiers and pulled out the long sword on the waist of the personal soldier.

Before he could rush towards Liu Wei with the long sword, he felt a sudden pain in his back, and another soldier who had been standing behind him, holding the hilt of the sword with both hands, stepped forward with one foot, leaned forward slightly, and the long sword slashed through Gongsun Fan's back from top to bottom.

His back was cut open by the long sword, and Gongsun Fan subconsciously turned around under the pain. At the moment when he turned around, several long swords pierced into his body at the same time.

The pro-soldiers around him pulled their long swords out of Gongsun Fan's body, and after Gongsun Fan was covered in blood and fell straight down, the pro-soldiers turned around and knelt down in front of Liu Wei, who had turned back when he heard the movement.

"Your Highness, this person grabbed the sword with the intention of doing something wrong to His Highness!" The pro-soldier who split Gongsun Fan's backbone knelt straight, clasped his hands into fists, bowed his head and said to Liu Wei: "I will kill him in a hurry, and I implore His Highness to surrender his guilt!" ”

Looking at Gongsun Fan, who fell to the ground and was covered in blood, Liu Wei shook his head, sighed lightly, and said to the pro-soldiers: "If the matter is urgent, you are also an emergency move, what is the crime?" Get up! ”

After saying this, Liu Wei turned around and continued to walk in the direction of Yi County. On the edge of the river beach, except for Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, who were still directing the aftermath, all the generals of the Luoyang Army followed closely behind Liu Wei.

Captured Gongsun Fan and dedicated him to Liu Bian, Wang Men has been following behind Liu Bian, and saw several personal soldiers kill Gongsun Fan, Wang Men lowered his head, and his expression revealed a bit of unconcealable apprehension, for fear that Liu Bian would be angry with him.

"General Wang!" Seeing that he was about to walk to the gate of Yixian County, Liu Wei stopped and turned around and called Wangmen.

Hearing Liu Bian's call to him, Wang Men hurriedly stepped forward, bowed down and stood in front of Liu Bian, cold sweat was already pouring from his nervous forehead.

"Yi County has been breached, and the army must march north!" Looking at the Wang Men who was standing in front of him with his fists clenched, his forehead covered with cold sweat and his face was worried, Liu Wei said to him in a tone that was so light that there was almost no emotion: "This king wants General Wang to guard Yi County, wait until the Jizhou army comes to take over the defense, and then hand over the defense to catch up with the army." I don't know what General Wang thinks? ”

"Your Highness has orders, how dare the last general disobey them!" As a general of Jizhou, he personally captured Gongsun Fan, and seeing that Liu Bian's attitude towards him was very cold, Wang Men had already felt uneasy in his heart, and now he had the opportunity to stay in Yi County alone, where would he shirk it, and hurriedly hugged his fists and responded.

Nodding slowly, Liu Wei waved behind him, and said to Xu Shu and the generals who followed him: "The army enters Yi County, rests for two days, and then sets off!" ”

"No!" Everyone hugged their fists, responded in unison, and followed Liu Wei into the county seat of Yixian.

Compared with many big cities that Liu Wei has visited in the past, this county seat of Yi County is much smaller. Not only are the houses on both sides of the street low, but even the bluestone roads crisscrossing the city are much narrower.

The Luoyang army seized the city, relying on ten tiger guards who had infiltrated the city in advance to break through the city gate and put the army in. Except for a small-scale battle at the gate of the city, the entire Yi County changed its owner almost without resistance.

In such a siege, the county seat was hardly damaged. The houses on both sides of the street are intact, and even the street surface is so neat that there is hardly a piece of garbage to be found.

Due to the Luoyang army's breakthrough of the city, the civilians in the city were worried about being attacked by the army, so they closed the doors of their houses and hid at home and did not dare to go out. Except for the occasional patrol of one or two groups of Luoyang troops on the street, there is no sign of half of the civilians.

"General Wang!" Walking along the street to the depths of the city, Liu Wei turned his head to look at the houses with closed doors on both sides of the street, and said to the royal gate behind him: "Although the people in the city are under the rule of Gongsun Zhan, they are still the people of the Han Dynasty, and when the army leaves, the general must not embarrass them!" ”

"Your Highness, rest assured!" Following behind Liu Bian, Wang Men only felt that there were countless ears behind him, and the stabbing was uncomfortable, and when Liu Bian said the words that could not be embarrassed by the people in the city, he hurriedly followed, hugged his fists and bowed to Liu Bian and said: "The last general will not embarrass the people!" ”

Turning his head to look at Wang Men, he nodded slowly at him, and Liu Wei then asked, "Does General Wang know where the county government is?" ”

"It's just west of the city!" Liu Wei asked about the county government, and Wang Men hurriedly responded: "When Gongsun Fan came to Yi County, he has been living in the county government. The county government has everything you need, but how can Your Highness use those? If Your Highness moves in, the last general will be re-purchased! ”

"No!" Wang Men proposed to prepare for Liu Bian, Liu Bian waved his hand, and said to him: "There is no need to bother General Wang in this matter, the military quartermaster will do it for this king!" General Wang only led the army to consolidate the city defense, which is a great achievement! ”

Originally, he wanted to get closer to him by preparing for Liu Wei to stay in the county government, but after being rejected by Liu Wei, Wang Men suddenly felt a sense of loss in his heart, bowed down and hugged his fists in response, slowed down his pace, and did not raise his feet to follow everyone to continue to march until Liu Wei took a few steps.

"General Deng went to the county government with this king!" was about to walk to the intersection of going to the county government and separating from the army, Liu Wei explained to Deng Zhan, who was following behind him, and when he arrived at the intersection, he led Guan Qing and more than 100 Yu Linwei to walk briskly in the direction of the county government.

Deng Zhan, who was following Liu Bian, was instructed and knew that Liu Bian had something to arrange, so he followed Liu Biao and turned to the county government.

Liu Wei led Deng Zhan, Guan Qing and more than 100 Yu Linwei to leave, while Pang Tong led the generals and rushed to the barracks with the army.

With the march of the army, Wang Gate, standing at the intersection, turned his head to look at Liu Wei's back as he gradually moved away, and let out a long breath, as if he had unloaded the burden of a thousand jun on his shoulders, raised his arm and wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Although our army occupies Yi County, the city is not stable." Far away from the army, Liu Wei walked forward along the narrow bluestone road, and said to Deng Zhan who followed behind him in a low voice: "The army will be drawn in two days, and General Deng will probably have to stay here for a few days." ”

"Your Highness is ......?" When Liu Biao said this, Deng Zhan frowned slightly, and asked Liu Bian in a low voice, "Then ...... Wangmen?" ”

"This king wants General Deng to stay in the city, just to prevent the king's gate!" Liu Wei nodded and said to Deng Zhan: "This person captured Gongsun Fan, and this king should be rewarded." But when the king asked him what to do with Gongsun Fan, his words flickered, especially his eyes were erratic. This man's heart is calculating, and I am afraid it is not as I see. ”

"At the end of tomorrow, I will go to find a reason and behead him!" Before Liu Wei's words fell, Deng Zhan frowned slightly, and said to him: "It's just a general, why does Your Highness need to work so hard......

"The capture of Gongsun Fan by the royal gate, for our army, not only is there no half of the crime, but it has made a lot of meritorious deeds! There is no sufficient reason, kill the general! Liu Wei, who was walking in front, shook his head, a slightly helpless smile on the corner of his mouth, and said to Deng Zhan as he walked: "If it is spread that the king will conquer the world in the future, who will dare to come to surrender?" ”

"A few days ago, in Handan City, the people behind the interception of this king and General Deng have never been caught!" Without waiting for Deng Zhan to speak, Liu Wei continued: "Among the army, not all of them are the descendants of this king at the moment. Although the number of people is increasing, the forces of all parties are intricate, and if this continues, it will be extremely unfavorable to the march and battle! ”

Following behind Liu Bian, while listening to what Liu Bian said, Deng Zhan couldn't stop nodding.

"The reason why this king doesn't keep the king's family by his side is to start from him, slowly divide the forces of all parties in the army, and restore the purity of the army!" Deng Zhan didn't speak, and Liu Wei continued to say to him: "Two days later, the army was launched, and General Deng stayed in the city to pay attention to the movements of the royal gate. If he harms the people in the city, or does something unfavorable to the army from behind, General Deng can kill him immediately! ”

"Does Your Highness want the last general to temporarily enter the royal army?" Following behind Liu Bian, Deng Zhan had some doubts on his face, and said to Liu Bian: "But there are ...... in the army."

"No!" Before Deng Zhan finished speaking, Liu Wei shook his head, interrupted him, and said to him: "When the army goes out, this king will find a person of the same size as you, and pretend to be you and go out of the city with this king. As for you, lead dozens of dragoons to lurk in the city disguised as civilians, and keep an eye on the king's actions! ”
