Chapter 154: Take the mediocre lightly

Shen Tan knew Yang Song's temperament, and hugged his fists and said: "As long as Mr. facilitates this, I am willing to give thirty gold rewards." ”

Yang Song raised his palm and shook it: "Fifty!" ”

Shen Tan gritted his teeth: "Okay, a word is a certainty!" ”

Yang Song went out of the city alone, feeling the attention of all the people, raised his chin slightly, and walked towards Wei Yan.

Although in the face of the solemn murderous aura, his heart was also beating wildly, but he knew that he must not bow his head at this time, otherwise he would make a fool of himself.

After all, it is the great sacrificial wine of the Five Bucket Rice Sect, and Yang Song has also seen the scene of the gathering of 10,000 people, but he can barely stabilize it.

In front of Wei Yan, Yang Song was already sweating on his forehead, coughed lightly and took out Sun Gan's jade pendant, hugged his fists and said, "On the orders of Mr. Gongyou, I came to meet the general." ”

Wei Yan raised his eyes and glanced at the city, nodded and said, "Mr. called you here, what is the matter to discuss?" ”

Yang Song said: "Sir, please retreat three miles away first, restrain those bandits, and later the Shen Tan brothers will open the city and surrender, and do not let the bandits enter the city alone, so as not to harm the people." ”

Wei Yan sneered: "Count him as the Shen family to know the current affairs." ”

was about to give the order to retreat, but Yang Song stopped him: "Wait, can the general scold me a few words?" ”

"Huh?" Wei Yan held the reins, thinking that he had misheard, "What did you say?" ”

Yang Song said with a smile: "If the general retreats easily, the Shen Tan brothers will definitely be unconvinced, you and I will pretend to quarrel before the battle, in order to show the general's tiger power and deter the defenders, so that they will not dare to repent." ”

"That's right!" Wei Yan nodded slightly, thinking to himself that such a request, Wei had never seen it, how could he not satisfy you?

When he raised the big knife, he shouted: "Dog thief, look for death!" ”

"General, slow down!" Yang Song was really startled, almost rolled off the horse, quickly hugged the horse's neck, and said in a trembling voice, "General lighter, I'll hurt PIA!" ”

Wei Yan hummed slightly in his heart, put away his knife and scolded a few words, Yang Song trembled and begged for mercy.

I was frightened just now, but it didn't look like I was making a fake, and I saw the two hearts of the Shen Tan brothers in the city, and nervously slashed at the city wall.

After seeing Yang Song turn back, the two hurriedly went down to the city to greet them, and hurriedly asked, "Sir, how is the situation?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" Yang Song also wiped his cold sweat and sighed from the bottom of his heart: "This terrible money is really hard to earn!" ”

Shen Tan personally helped Yang Song off the horse, and found that he was still trembling, and persuaded: "Mr. Hardship, fifty gold will be given later." ”

Just now, I was dissatisfied with the price for Yang Song to sit on the ground, but at this time, I felt that the fifty gold was not unjustly spent, and if I sent someone else, I am afraid that the head would have landed.

After a while, sure enough, seeing Wei Yan's order to withdraw his troops, the bandits surrounding the north gate also retreated like a tide and gathered towards the Jingzhou military camp.

Shen Yi let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly reminded Shen Tan: "Brother, immediately invite General Wei into the city." ”

"Yes, yes, follow me out of town!" Shen Tan reacted and immediately summoned the civil and military forces out of the city to surrender.

Those bandits obviously obeyed Wei Yan's orders, and as long as they connected him to the city, they could keep Shangyong safe.

The Shangyong officials hurriedly went out of the city, Yang Song returned Sun Gan's jade pendant, and his face smiled as bright as a chrysanthemum: "Thank you Mr. for your advice, Yang is not talented, I am willing to make friends with Mr., I don't know if I can afford it?" ”

Sun Qian clasped his fists and smiled: "It is an honor to work with the Great Sacrifice Wine. ”

"In the future, Mr. Yang will have a place, even if he speaks, I am willing to stick a knife in both ribs and never frown."

Yang Song's heart is happy, he is disgusted with people in Hanzhong, and as soon as he goes out, he befriends a famous person like Sun Qian, who is not a hundred times stronger than Yan Pu and others?

What happened just now, as long as Sun Gan said a word, Wei Yan could withdraw from the army, but he created an opportunity to make himself out of the limelight and make a lot of money, where to find such a friend?

When he was asking for advice on how to act next, the Shen Tan brothers had already welcomed Wei Yan into the city, and remembering what Sun Qian had just said, Yang Song sighed: "General Liu is really a god!" ”

Seeing that Wei Yan only brought ten personal soldiers, followed by three bandit leaders, and the rest of the men and horses stayed outside the city, he was even more impressed.

Liu Qi's subordinates are really full of talents, Wen Ru Sun Qian is extraordinary, Wu Ru Wei Yan is slightly more courageous, he can get along with him, why be afraid of Cao Cao?

Everyone came to the mansion together, Shen Tan gave Wei Yan to the top, Yang Song sat in the guest seat, and rearranged the banquet to catch the wind.

Brother Shen Tan stepped forward to toast, looked at the three bandit leaders with unkind expressions, felt uneasy, and asked, "I don't know how the general will settle the people of the mediocre?" ”

Wei Yanyan said: "On the order of General Liu, the two of them are not Cao thief's henchmen, of course, they are also reinstated, and Shangyong and Xicheng Taishou are still served by the two of you." ”

Shen Tan and the others were overjoyed, and hurriedly clasped their fists and said: "Thank you for the generosity of the general, we will definitely put on our hearts and do our best to be loyal." ”

Wei Yan said lightly: "Just saying two big words can't show loyalty, if the two of you are sincere in serving the Han family, you should show some sincerity." ”

Shen Tan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "The general can rest assured, he is willing to move his wife, children and clan relatives to Nanyang and even Jingzhou." ”

Wei Yan nodded and smiled: "This matter has to be told to General Liu to make a decision, he is leading the troops in Wuguan, and he will return to Xiangyang in a few days, I will wait until Danshui meets." ”

Shen Tan hugged his fists and said: "The two of us have admired General Liu's reputation for a long time, and we are about to visit, so please ask the general to introduce me." ”

After three rounds of drinking, Wei Yan recommended the three of them to toast with Shen Tan to resolve the grievances between the two sides, and in the future, they will also return to the imperial court and no longer be enemies of the government.

Shen Tan was overjoyed, and after toasting, he said angrily: "General Huwei, when he arrived in the territory, he asked all the heroes to admire and admire." ”

Wei Yan smiled: "Have you heard of the method of controlling water, blocking it and suppressing it, it is better to guide it?" The same is true for governing the people, if it were not for those corrupt officials and evil officials, who would want to abandon their wives and children and fall into the grass? ”

"What the general said is very true!" Shen Tan laughed.

Over the years, they have also relied on their family power to oppress the people, and some of the conflicts were caused by encroaching on the fields and forcibly buying and selling.

But in troubled times, if you don't fight others, others will come to destroy you, if you don't do this, how can the family grow?

Wei Yan sighed: "In recent years, the dynasty has been sluggish, and everyone has become self-reliant, especially in Hanzhong, where the mountains are high and the roads are far away, there are even stronger people, the roads are cut off, the people are uneasy, and business travel is blocked. ”

"Exactly!" Shen Tan nodded hurriedly and said: "Born in troubled times, I can't help myself when I wait to defend the city and train in order to be safe. ”

Yang Song couldn't help but say: "Hanzhong and Nanyang haven't exchanged news for several years. ”

Many of the industries operated by the Yang family were transported from Nanyang to the Central Plains and Jingzhou, since this road was cut off, they could only go to Guanzhong, and their income dropped sharply, which made Yang Song anxious for a period of time, and lost a lot of weight.

Wei Yan said with a smile: "Although General Liu is temporarily unable to pacify the territory, he has come up with a compromise strategy to ensure that the roads are smooth and the goods flow safely in the two places. ”

"What's the best idea?" Brother Shen Tan and Yang Song spoke at the same time, staring at Wei Yan in unison.

If they could really open up the road between Hanzhong and Nanyang and ensure the safe transportation of goods, their family's income would at least double.

Wei Yan stroked his beard and smiled: "Set up a dart game!" ”
