"I only descend to the Son of Heaven!"

Li Yan, who was pulled out of the rag with his mouth plugged by Liu Cheng and untied the rope on his body, only felt that his tongue was numb and his whole face was wooden.

But even so, he's still big! With his tongue drawn, he said in a voice that was a little slurred.

Hearing what this guy said, Zhang Liao, Hua Xiong, Liao Hua and others on the side all became a little angry.

The one who led the troops to fight you, the people of Xichuan, who had no power to fight back was Uncle Liu Huang.

The person who can decide your life and death is still Uncle Liuhuang!

As a result, at this time, you directly said that you wanted to surrender to the Emperor of Han!

Isn't this clearly saying that the identity of the imperial uncle is not qualified?

At the same time, he also vaguely expressed his disagreement with the identity of Dong Xiangguo behind the emperor's uncle.

Being looked at like this by Zhang Liao and others, Li Yan did not flinch.

He didn't say anything to change anything, just stood here and waited quietly.

Waiting for Liu Cheng's answer.

I want to see Liu Cheng's reaction.

If this Uncle Liu Huang did not agree with his statement, Li Yan would not have turned his face on the spot.

However, in the future, he will leave from Yizhou and from Uncle Liu Huang.

Whether from now on, he will completely return to seclusion, or find other people to take refuge and assist, he will not follow this Liu Chenggan.

Liu Cheng pondered the words Li Yan said in his heart, and couldn't help but smile.

This is in line with the image and thoughts of many Han Dynasty officials.

Obviously, there are mirrors in my heart, but there are some things that no one wants to pierce.

It's a matter of dying to save face.

Surrendering the Son of Han is undoubtedly very good compared to submitting him Liu Cheng, or submitting Dong Zhuo.

After all, this Han Emperor is the recognized orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty.

He subdued the Emperor of Han and was able to leave others speechless in the future.

Even if others accuse him, he can straighten his back and squirt back the person who accuses him.

As a member of the Han Dynasty, it is my duty to obey the Son of Heaven.

You criticize me in this matter, and at first glance you are a great rebel!

However, now that Dong Zhuo is in power and coercs the Son of Heaven to order him not to submit, there is not much difference between subjugating the Son of Heaven of Han and subduing Dong Zhuo and subjugating him Liu Cheng.

In the future, it is still necessary to do things under Dong Zhuo's orders.

Moreover, Liu Cheng, as the governor of Zhengyi, personally led the soldiers and horses to attack Yizhou, and he had great power to deal with these people in Yizhou and these things.

It can be said that Li Yan's life and death, as well as Li Yan's promotion, appointment and dismissal, are all under his control.

Under the dualistic monarchical characteristic system of the Eastern Han Dynasty, as long as Liu Cheng did not fall, it was impossible for Li Yan to erase the mark of Liu Cheng left on his body.

What Liu Cheng needs is something tangible.

False names can get the best of these things.

If you can't get it, it doesn't matter much.

As long as you can get something tangible......

Therefore, he looked at Li Yan and smiled, and said loudly: "I am under the edict of the Son of Heaven to crusade against the ministers, and you surrender to the Son of Heaven, which is in the past."

I agreed. ”

Hearing Liu Cheng say this, Li Yan, who had already prepared for the worst in his heart, bowed respectfully to Liu Cheng.

The feeling of Liu Cheng in my heart has become more different.

……

"This Uncle Liu Huang is a character!

Not only in fighting, he has a very high talent, but in the rest, he is also very calm, not a short-sighted person!

Ordinary people, in this troubled times, brought a large number of soldiers and horses, conquered Yizhou, and came to this place that is naturally suitable for secession.

With soldiers and food, it is easy to rise up some thoughts of separation.

But from today, Uncle Liu Huang allowed us to surrender to the Son of Han Dynasty, not to surrender him, or Dong Zhuo, it can be seen that Uncle Liu Huang has no intention of separating himself here in Yizhou......

Compared with such a character, Liu Yizhou, who can't wait to create the crown of the Son of Heaven, and Liu Yizhou, who fights against him, is really too far behind......"

In the afternoon of the same day, Li Yan met Yan Yan.

The two main generals stationed at Jianmen Pass and Jiameng Pass respectively, after meeting, at the beginning, they were relatively speechless.

It was a long time before the two began to speak.

After some communication, the two knew what had happened to each other.

Talking about this war, especially when it comes to Uncle Liu Huang's plan to trick them out of Xiongguan, and Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan led their troops from Yinping Road, smuggled across Xichuan, and killed them from behind towards Jianmen Pass, the two of them were even more convinced of this failure.

After talking like this for a while, Li Yan turned the topic to what happened today.

Yan Yan was a little reluctant to compare Liu Yan with Liu Cheng at this time.

Although at this time, he surrendered and listened to orders under the account of Liu Cheng and Uncle Liu Huang.

But Liu Yan is his old master after all.

He didn't really want to say anything bad about him.

However, what Li Yan said is all true.

Therefore, he still nodded, indicating his agreement with this matter.

There was no sound.

Li Yan didn't speak again, because he suddenly remembered something......

This thing is that he once heard someone say that Dong Fu, who is good at looking at qi, once said that Yizhou has a son of heaven!

Liu Yan made the crown of the Son of Heaven privately, and the Son of Heaven fought against him.

Now Uncle Liu Huang has led troops into Xichuan, which shows that Liu Yan and Liu Yizhou have no chance with the Son of Heaven.

Now, Uncle Liu Huang, who is younger, stronger, and more open-minded and visionary than Liu Yan, has led his troops into Yizhou.

This proverb once said by Dong Fu, a scholar of scripture, should it be on Uncle Liu Huang......

As soon as he thought of this, Li Yan's heart couldn't help but shake.

I can't calm down for a long time.

'Anyway, I only descended to the Han Emperor!'

In the future, if Uncle Liu Huang really came to that step and became the son of Han Tianzi, he would then listen to his orders.

Anyway, Uncle Liu Huang is also surnamed Liu, and he is also a member of the Han family.

If you really want to be the son of Han Tianzi, it's not impossible to ......'

Thinking so to himself, he gradually calmed down.

After such a thought rose from my heart, when I looked at Liu Cheng again, I felt that it suddenly became different......

Li Yan did not say such an idea to Yan Yan.

This kind of speech cannot be spoken to by people who are not close to each other.

You need to understand it yourself.

And Yan Yan also seemed more taciturn.

I don't know if I didn't calm down from Zhang Ren's death, or if I thought of some other things......

Liu Cheng was not idle.

At this time, he was holding a meeting with Zhang Liao, Hua Xiong, Li Su, Liao Hua, Gao Shun, Cheng Lian and other senior generals here.

Deliberating on the next steps.

Nishikawa's hard shell has been broken.

Now, it's time to attack Nishikawa.

"The biggest reason for the turmoil in Yizhou is that the traitor Liu Yan has bad intentions and tries to claim that the emperor is rebelling.

However, because it was still short to arrive in Xichuan, its wings were not completely full.

There are not too many means used, so there are still many people in Xichuan today who are interested in the imperial court.

Now, we only need to lead the soldiers and horses and quickly solve Liu Yan......"

After some discussion, Liu Cheng, the person who was the governor of Zhengyi, summed up and said.

Then began to arrange soldiers and horses to prepare for the attack on Mianzhu.

"Cheng Lian, you led the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, as the vanguard, and took the lead towards Mianzhu.

Remember, you must do everything you can all the way!

It is absolutely forbidden to harm innocent people, destroy fields, or take a stitch from the people!

Along the way, you must know a lot of my rules.

This must not be committed!

If I know it, I will be reissued! ”

In the midst of everyone's burning waiting, Liu Cheng opened his mouth and took the lead in ordering Cheng Lian's general.

Let Cheng Lian be the pioneer and lead the soldiers and horses first.

After hearing that Uncle Liu Huang was the first to call his name and handed over the pioneer to himself, Cheng Lian was a little stunned for a while.

Although he is also extremely eager for the position of pioneer, he does not feel that such a position will fall on him.

After all, this time, the two gateways to Xichuan, Jianmen Pass and Jiameng Pass, which are the most difficult to attack, have been opened.

The rest of the things are much easier to deal with.

It can be said that the road is smooth.

It is an excellent opportunity to lead troops and make meritorious contributions.

Such opportunities are reserved for those who are close to them.

He is not a confidant of Uncle Liu, but a confidant of Lu Wenhou, who has a great contradiction with Uncle Liu.

In any case, such a thing is not your turn.

But now, the position of this pioneer has fallen to his head unexpectedly!

This......

Cheng Lian didn't know how to express his feelings for a while.

There are definitely surprises.

After the accident, there was a strong surprise and a strong admiration.

I admire Uncle Liu's open-mindedness and bearing.

I was impressed by it.

This is truly a respectable existence!

"The end, the last general commanded! will definitely live up to the high expectations of the emperor! I won't forget the rules of the Emperor's Uncle's Sect! ”

Gao Shun, who was on the side, saw that Cheng Lian was stunned and didn't take the order, so he quietly touched Cheng Lian with his hand.

Cheng Lian came back to his senses, hurriedly stepped forward, saluted Liu Cheng, and answered the order loudly.

General Liu Cheng ordered the arrow and Cheng Lian, and said with a smile: "Cheng Sima, light up the soldiers and horses, set off as soon as possible, and leave Jianmen Pass before this evening at the latest!" ”

Cheng Lian took the order and strode away, and the whole person was full of energy......

"Captain Huadu, Li Zhonglang, you two lead soldiers and horses, as the second echelon.

After coming to Fucheng, the two of you divided the troops, and Captain Hua led the troops to attack Fucheng.

Li Zhonglang led his troops and horses to continue to move forward, bypassing Mianzhu, and went to surround the city south of Mianzhu.

Cut off the city and Mianzhu, and don't let the soldiers and horses of the city go to Mianzhu to support! ”

Liu Cheng looked at Huaxiong and Li Su and said this to the two of them.

"Order!"

"Order!"

Huaxiong and Li Su stepped forward one after another, hugged their fists at Liu Cheng and saluted, and promised loudly.

After Huaxiong and Li Su left, Liu Cheng looked at Zhang Liao, Liao Hua, and Gao Shun and said: "Running all the way, sacrificing his life to enter Xichuan from Yinping Road, Wen Yuan should be the first person to enter Xichuan."

After a long journey of soldiers and horses, this time, as a Chinese army, I went to Mianzhu with me......

Yuan Jian and Su Qing also led the soldiers and horses, as the Chinese army, and acted with me.

On the way, you need to guard against the soldiers and horses in the direction of Langzhong.

This is the strongest army that Liu Yan can mobilize now......"

Zhang Liao and others agreed one after another.

Then it was time to mobilize the troops......

The army rolls on.

At noon the next day, Liu Cheng's brigade of soldiers and horses set off from Jianmen Pass.

Only a small number of men and horses were left to guard the Sword Gate......

……

In Mianzhu City, Liu Yan looked restless.

Since he received a report five days ago that Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan had led the soldiers and horses from the Yinping Road to Xichuan and successfully took Jiangyou City, he had not been calm.

The whole of Mianzhu, as well as the surrounding area of Mianzhu, is now tense.

From time to time, there will be soldiers and horses, coming from the surrounding area and hurrying to the outside of Mianzhu City.

After receiving a very close discernment, and confirming that it was his own people, he let them into the city.

These soldiers and horses, after receiving Liu Yan's order, quickly moved and rushed to Mianzhu from nearby towns to prepare to hold Mianzhu.

This is related to the decision that Liu Yan finally made after a tense discussion with his subordinates.

The decision he made was to give up the rest of Xichuan, concentrate the soldiers and horses, and defend Mianzhu.

The tall city wall of Mianzhu is there, and Liu Cheng's soldiers and horses are dead!

After seeing Liu Cheng's soldiers and horses, it took less than a month to pacify all the Dongchuan and lead the soldiers and horses to attack Xichuan, Liu Yan and others completely understood how elite Liu Cheng's soldiers and horses were.

Liu Cheng, the guy they call killing pigs, is so fierce in leading soldiers to fight!

This incident made them clearly aware of a fact.

That is, in the case of losing so many elite soldiers and horses, in the face of Liu Cheng's soldiers and horses who entered Xichuan, it was impossible for them to hold the various cities.

The result of all the cities having to hold on to them is that all the cities can't hold on!

Therefore, Liu Yan finally decided to give up all the places in Xichuan except Mianzhu.

Concentrate the limited soldiers and horses in Mianzhu and defend this big city!

Liu Yan wanted to rely on this move to take Liu Cheng's soldiers and horses away from Xichuan.

He had calculated for so long before he finally got Emperor Ling to agree to implement the state pastoral system.

And planned himself to such an excellent place as Yizhou.

The world, as I thought, began to become more and more chaotic.

I also waited for the opportunity I wanted.

As a result, after working hard for so long, he became the pastor of Yizhou, and in less than two years, the entire Yizhou was going to be discarded from his hands, and he was really unwilling!

Don't want to give it all up!

I want to fight to the death!

His confidence in doing so came from the messenger who had recently returned from the east to bring him great news.

Liu Biao, Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shao had already agreed to Dong Zhuo's call to send troops to fight Dong again when he sent a large number of troops and horses to attack Yizhou.

As soon as these people move, Han Sui and Ma Teng in Liangzhou will definitely not sit idly by.

As soon as such a situation is formed, its own turning point will come......

"Jun Langgong, you still ordered that the grain and grass in various places be burned, and the walls should be cleared.

In this way, you can have many more chances of winning! ”
