Wu County, Taishou Province:

Although Cheng Yuan does not have an official position now, because he is ordered to lead the troops, whether it is the men and horses sent by Ma Chun or the soldiers who fled back later, they all respect him very much.

A samurai on horseback came to the gate of Taishoufu.

"General Ma Chun sent His Majesty's holy decree, and asked Master Cheng Yuan to come to receive the decree."

The samurai guarding the door hurriedly agreed and ran into the lobby.

In the lobby, Cheng Yuan was talking to someone.

"Your Majesty's holy decree has arrived, it must be to commend General Cheng Yuan's merits, the villain congratulated the general here first, the general quickly went to receive the decree, and the villain also asked someone to arrange for the reception of the herald." The man stood up and said.

Cheng Yuan also had a smug look on his face.

Sure enough, Liu Yong not only praised Cheng Yuan's recapture of Wujun, but also crowned him as the general of Hengye, and led the Wujun Taishou on his behalf. He also asked Ma Chun to allocate a large number of cattle, sheep and fine wine for the use of the labor army.

Although General Yokono is just a ragtag general, for a general like Cheng Yuan, he can definitely be called a great favor.

"Your Majesty is very pleased that General Cheng Yuan was able to defeat Che Wei, and specially sent a personal guard, General Qin Zhen, to help you defend the city." After the herald had read the decree, he added.

Qi Zhen came to Cheng Yuan with a dark face, and said in a rough voice, "The villain came by order to protect General Cheng Yuan's safety, and His Majesty told the villain that if General Cheng Yuan fails, General Ben will never have to return to the capital." Therefore, if the general has actions in the future, he needs to inform the villain in advance, and the villain can accompany him. ”

Cheng Yuan looked at Qi Zhen.

"Looking at the appearance of the general, he must be a rare tiger general, in the future, with the general on his side, the general will be worry-free."

Everyone laughed.

Qi Zhen didn't say a word, and stood behind Cheng Yuan honestly.

An hour later, the city of the Mean:

"Liu Yong's guy has really been fooled, since Cheng Yuan has been crowned as General Hengye, General Ben will make a sneak attack on Wujun tonight, forcing Cheng Yuan to retreat from Hanzhong, and then, if he wants to deceive the city gate, General Ben wants to take Hanzhong." The lieutenant said excitedly slapping the table.

"General Che Lieutenant, don't worry." A samurai who came to deliver the letter said in a low voice, "The intention of my general Cheng Yuan is that in a few more days, if he acts too early, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of Liu Yong, Ma Chun and others. In addition, it is also necessary to wait for the decree of King Chitose of Jin before taking action. ”

The lieutenant thought for a moment.

"It's okay, General Ben is here waiting for Cheng Yuan's news."

Sima Yan's decree was delivered to Cheng Yuan's hands on the third day after Liu Yong's decree arrived.

The person who came pretended to be a merchant and entered the Taishou Mansion under the pretext of Cheng Yuan's distant relatives.

Sima Yan, like Liu Yong, first praised Cheng Yuan a few words, and then told him not to be impatient, saying that he was planning to raise troops from Chencang, and when the time came, he would attack from both sides, and Liu Yong would lose the other.

Cheng Yuan made a ball of white silk and clenched it hard.

"Sima Yan, this guy, killed my whole family, and made people imprison my son, if it weren't for such despicability, why did General Ben fall into this villain?"

Cheng Yuan was also forced to be helpless.

Sima Yan killed Cheng's family, but left Cheng Yuan and his son alone, and used his son as a threat to ask Cheng Yuan to surrender. As Liu Yong expected, he intended to be in Hanzhong.

Everything is under Liu Yong's control, but Liu Yong is quite tired.

Hanzhong:

"Your Majesty and the two generals Dong Qi and Lian Qi are already less than twenty miles away from here, and General Ma Chun will quickly go outside the city to pick them up." A soldier Pegasus came to the gate of the Taishou Mansion, and he couldn't wait to go in and return, so he shouted loudly.

Ma Chun, dressed in a draped cloth, walked out of the mansion quickly.

"Assemble the team and go with General Ben to greet Your Majesty."

Ma Chun led 3,000 elite soldiers out of the city.

Liu Yong's vehicle was still far away, and Ma Chun had already ordered everyone to kneel on the side of the road.

For a moment, I saw a crowd of people, swords, guns and armor flashing several dazzling lights in the sun, and all kinds of war horses roared under the fluttering flags.

Liu Yong stood on a chariot decorated with a fiery red umbrella cover, stared at the soldiers in front of him, and suddenly waved his hand to stop the vehicle.

"This is the gossip array created by Zhuge Wuhou back then, and General Ma Chun used this formation to welcome Yu Zhen, which shows that General Ma Chun's training of the three armies has never stopped." Liu Yong said to Dong Qi and Lian Zhen who were standing beside him.

"I have heard that General Ma Chun's bravery is not under Ma Chao, the hussar general in Shuzhong in the past, but when I see it today, it is really extraordinary, and it really does not disgrace the prestige behind the famous family." Dong Qi praised.

Lian snorted and didn't make a sound.

"I want General Ma Chun to see me in front of the car." Liu Yong commanded.

Not long after, Ma Chun came to the front of the car under the leadership of a Chinese officer.

"Wechen see Your Majesty." Ma Chun knelt in front of the car.

"General Ma Chun's army and horses are so clean, it is really out of my expectations. I think that at the beginning, my Hussar General Ma Chao in Shu, Ma Dai, the General of Pingbei, and even the former General Ma Teng of the former Western Liang Taishou were all warriors, and today's General Ma Chun is also the minister of my Shuzhong Pillar Stone, my great luck, and the great luck of Shu. Liu Yong said loudly.

"Your Majesty's praise." The armor on Ma Chun's body made a soft noise, "Weichen really didn't dare to talk to his ancestors, he had already heard that His Majesty had conquered Nanyi in the south and made Meng Zhuo surrender; designed to kill Deng Ai and defeated Sima Yan, which made Cao Wei's army and people fearless. Weichen had already had a wish to see His Majesty's demeanor, but he was only an important place in Hanzhong and did not dare to leave without permission. Fortunately, His Majesty is personally recruited, and Weichen is willing to serve his life before and after His Majesty's saddle and reinvigorate the former prestige of my Shu Han. ”

Liu Yong was overjoyed, jumped out of the car, and helped Ma Chun up with his own hands.

Dong Qi also jumped out of the car following Liu Yong, only Lian hesitated and did not move, looking high.

Three days later, Liu Yong ordered Ma Chun to personally elect a deputy general to guard Hanzhong, and he led Ma Chun, Dong Qi, and Lian Zhen to leave Hanzhong.

Wu County:

"Report, General Cheng Yuan, Your Majesty personally led General Ma Chun of Hanzhong Taishou to come to Wujun, with the intention of helping the general seize Shangyong, and it is now less than a day away."

A spy had already informed Cheng Yuan of the news.

Cheng Yuan was a little surprised.

"Why did Your Majesty come so fast?"

"My Majesty's use of soldiers has always been elusive, and it is beyond our ability to figure it out." Qi Zhen behind him said.

Cheng Yuan lowered his head and pondered for a moment.

"General Qi Zhen quickly went to General Daiben to give an order, and the three armies were ready to welcome His Majesty into the city at any time."

Qi Zhen didn't move.

"Your Majesty wants the villain to protect the safety of General Cheng Yuan, and the villain does not dare to leave the general's side without permission."

Cheng Yuan glanced back at Qi Zhen.

Since Liu Yong came to Wujun, he simply assisted the captain to capture Liu Yong here, and without waiting for Sima Yan to lead the troops out of Chencang, he recovered Hanzhong in one fell swoop, and then captured Chengdu with the captain.

"It's okay, since General Qi Zhen is not going, General Ben will personally go to the teaching field to order troops." Cheng Yuan said, and really walked out.

Qi Zhen followed closely behind Cheng Yuan, pressing his hands on the copper hammer on his waist, looking as nervous as if he was facing a great enemy.

With a guard like Qi Zhen, Cheng Yuan hated it so much, but he was helpless.

By the time the captain finally received the news that Cheng Yuan had sent from time to time, Liu Yong's men and horses had already come to the city of Wujun.
