Chapter 465: Defeat Wei Yan and pacify the civil strife

Although Wei Yan's men had slightly more troops than Wang Ping and Wu Yi, Wang Ping was able to make a surprise attack with ease. On the one hand, it is certainly because of surprise, and another important reason is that Wei Yanyan'an's newly recruited soldiers cannot fight, and the Liangchuan soldiers who can fight have arrived at the doorstep, who wants to throw their lives here in vain? So those who ran and fell, and those who really came out to resist to the death were only the more than 1,000 henchmen and soldiers brought out by Wei Yan's father and son.

Wei Yan saw Wang Ping's calm face by the firelight, and his face was a little pale because the injury he was hit by Wen Yang had not yet healed. Although Wang Ping could not personally lead his subordinates to fight like Wei Yan, his calm command, timely change of formation, and adjustment of deployment made it difficult for Wei Yan's father and son, who were known for their bravery, to break through the siege of the Han army. The battle continued until dawn, and the sergeants beside Wei Yan were killed and wounded, and Wei Chang was pierced through the chest by a crossbow arrow fired from nowhere, and only shouted softly: "Father." He fell off his horse and died. Seeing his beloved son die first, Wei Yan went crazy and slashed the Han army, but he couldn't compete with tens of thousands of soldiers with the strength of one person. The wounds on his body continued to bleed, and Wei Yan's consciousness was about to blur, but he heard another familiar voice shouting: "Father......"

Wei Yan raised his eyes and saw that his sons and Wei Chang's two young sons were brought to the front of the battle by the Han army, and the younger ones were all frightened and cried. The second son Wei Rong's face was as usual, and the "father" just now was exactly what he shouted. Wu Yi immediately followed behind Wei Rong and said in a loud voice: "Anti-thief Wei Yan, why don't you get off your horse and be bound?" ”

The half-night battle, bleeding too much, had already made Wei Yan feel unsupportable, and when he saw that his sons and grandsons had become hostages, he could no longer hold the treasure knife in his hand, and he fell off the horse. Wu Yi only said that Wei Yan was forced to abandon his weapon by his "clever plan", and couldn't help laughing. Wang Ping next to him frowned again, and pulled the war horse apart a little more, in his heart, he really didn't want to be with someone like Wu Yi.

Wei Rong opened his mouth to call Wei Yan, originally wanting to tell him that he didn't have to think about himself, but he didn't expect Wei Yan to abandon the knife and surrender, he only felt that he had hurt his father, and he was very remorseful. Nai said in a loud voice: "Father, children are not filial. Reaching out and holding the long knife around his neck, he wiped it under his neck, and blood splattered on the spot. The younger brothers next to him cried again when they saw their brother's tragic death. Wei Yan's eyes were red, he looked up to the sky and laughed, and shouted: "Don't cry, you and the others should take the two brothers as an example, and they will be the good men of my Wei family." ”

Wang Ping didn't want to witness the tragedy happen again, so he stepped forward and said: "The general has an order, and he wants to capture the general alive." The general can't escape now, so why bother resisting? Wei Yan looked Wang Ping up and down for a few counts, and sneered: "I just think that Wu Yi is greedy for wealth and nobility and is a lackey for Zhao Shu." I didn't expect that you, Wang Ping, would be willing to help Zhao Shu usurp the Han family, I was really blind. Wang Ping shook his head and sighed: "Speaking from the heart, is the general really raising troops for the court?" Wei Yan was speechless for a moment, and reluctantly said: "Even if a certain person is not dedicated to the court, Zhao Shu wants to usurp the throne." Wang Ping shook his head again and said, "The general is wrong again. The general had no such intention, but after settling Chang'an and believing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was no longer alive, he would respectfully invite His Royal Highness King Liang to ascend the throne and inherit the throne. Wei Yan looked at Wang Ping, his face was very strange, and he laughed after a long time: "This is probably what Zhao Shu said himself, do you also believe it?" Wang Ping sighed silently in his heart, although he didn't believe it very much, but what could he do?

Seeing that he didn't answer, Wei Yan asked again: "You don't believe it in your heart, do you?" Wang Ping finally nodded and replied, "But the last general can't believe that the general can restore the Han dynasty and stabilize the world." ”

"Okay." Wei Yan said hatefully: "I asked myself if I was Zhao Shu's opponent, but if he wanted to capture me alive and humiliate me in person, he would never be able to." With that, he drew his sword. Wang Ping understood his intentions and hurriedly shouted, "The general must not. Wu Yi was afraid that he would not be able to complete the task assigned by Zhao Shu and would be punished, so he also shouted loudly: "Wei Yan, if you dare to commit suicide in fear of sin." And the general will kill your whole family and make them your company. Wei Yan glared at him coldly, and swept the faces of each son and grandson very lovingly, and said, "After I die, their life and death depend on the kindness of the great general." After finishing speaking, he was like Wei Rong and killed himself.

Wu Yi saw Wei Yan's tall body fall off the horse, and knew that he still hadn't completed the task instructed by Zhao Shu, so he suddenly became furious and shouted: "Come on, slaughter these little beasts." As soon as the words fell, I felt a cold, hard knife on my back, and I heard Wang Ping say coldly: "Give these people to me." Wu Yi didn't expect Wang Ping to dare to treat him like this, he was shocked and angry, and said loudly: "Wang Zijun, are you going to rebel?" Wang Ping's hand was slightly forced, and he shouted: "General Ben is saying it again, these people are all handed over to me to take away." Although Wang Ping is usually silent, what he says is always true to his words and does not allow others to refute them. Wu Yi was in front of many subordinates, how could he not swallow this breath, but he was afraid of angering Wang Ping, so he seemed very hesitant, but in the end, he still held the idea that a good man would not suffer the loss in front of him, nodded and smiled: "They are all ministers of the same palace, if General Wang wants to take them away, even if they are taken away, why bother?" Wang Ping snorted coldly, even if he answered, his hands did not relax at all, and only after his subordinate sergeants took Wei Yan's descendants away, two words popped out of his mouth: "Thank you." Then he rode away.

Looking at Wang Ping's back, Wu Yi gritted his teeth with hatred, but he was helpless, just a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and said in his heart: When I see the general, I will report this matter truthfully, and see how long you Wang Ping can be arrogant? Wu Yi's calculation in his heart was good, but it was a pity that Zhao Shu did not do what he thought, not only did he not have the slightest intention of blaming, but simply asked Wang Ping: "How did the general deal with Wenchang's orphan?" ”

Wang Pingping replied without changing his face: "The last general thinks that although Wei Yan's crime is unforgivable, but he has made many years of meritorious service, and his descendants should be exempted from the crime of sitting together, so as to show the kindness of the court and the benevolence of the general." So let them all go. Hearing Wang Ping's answer, Wu Yi secretly rejoiced, thinking that Wang Ping would definitely be punished by Zhao Shu for letting such a repeat offender go privately. However, Zhao Shu just said the word "good", so he didn't mention this matter, but instead used Wang Ping's first merit to quell the rebellion and crowned the Marquis of Nanzheng. Wu Yi's heart was full of displeasure, but he didn't dare to speak out against Zhao Shu, but his old face turned purple with anger.

Zhao Shu saw Wu Yi's appearance and understood the dissatisfaction in his heart, and also promoted the two Wu brothers to the rank of knight one by one, and Wu Yi turned his anger into joy and thanked him repeatedly. In terms of personal feelings, Zhao Shu hated Wu Yi in his heart, but many places needed the support of such a former nobleman, so he smiled and encouraged a few words, and let him step down first.

After Wang Ping and Wu Yi retreated, they also hugged their fists and retreated, took a step, and finally turned their heads and said: "The general promised the last general...... Zhao Shu said without waiting for him to finish: "The general doesn't have to worry, I will give the general an explanation." Wang Ping nodded, as if he wanted to say something, but finally he didn't say anything, and went out.

After Wang Ping left, Huan Yicai walked out from behind, stared at Zhao Shu and said, "The general really refuses to ......, won't he live up to Boji's dying wishes?" Zhao Shu didn't answer, but just whispered to himself: "Guan Ping, they should go to Luoyang, right?" Then he said: "Bury Wei Yan and enter Sichuan tomorrow." ”

Huan Yi knew that no matter how much he persuaded him, it would be useless, or if his wife was still there, he could still persuade Zhao Shu to change his mind, but now he could only sigh heavily and said: "The last general is really ashamed of the general." Zhao Shu turned his head to look at him, and said half-loudly: "I am also ashamed of you and Boji." ”
