Chapter 633 Veteran Yan Yan
Liu Zan was the general promoted from the bottom of Yuan Shu.
Although he was given a large mansion by Yuan Shu in Shouchun, he also received various rewards for his military achievements.
But Liu Zan still likes beautiful women in his heart. Wouldn't it be nice if he could have more women staying home for him to pass on his family traditions?
Chen Qingzhi heard the implication of Liu Zan's words and said to him with a smile:
“These dancers are all the spoils of our army.
If General Liuzan likes it, as the Lord, I can allow you to pick two of you to take them back to your house.”
Liu Zan's eyes lit up when she heard this and said happily:
"real?
Then I’ll thank General Chen!”
After Liu Zan said that, he ran to select the beauties excitedly.
Chen Qingzhi looked at Tong Feng again and smiled at him:
"Will General Tong choose two dancers?"
Tong Feng's face is much thinner than Liu Zan.
He always had a rebellious expression, but his face turned red and waved his hands repeatedly:
"I don't need it, I'd better give it to the soldiers in need."
Tong Feng thought to myself that I didn’t even marry a wife, so I wouldn’t be beaten to death by my father if I took a concubine?
After all, I have to marry a lady from a big family before thinking about this kind of thing.
......
When Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang captured Fushui Pass, Yuan Shu also marched westward.
With Yang Huai, the leader of the road, the road to the west has indeed been much easier.
The guards of the cities along the way knew that they were not Yuan Shu's opponents, and Yuan Shu's army was everywhere and the enemy was surrendering.
I walked all the way to Langzhong and was stopped by the enemy.
Langzhong, the prefect's mansion.
An old general with gray hair and beard sat in the main seat.
The veteran looks about fifty years old, about the same age as Huang Zhong.
He has a national face, a strong face, and a very majestic spirit.
This person is Yan Yan, the prefect of Ba County, and Liu Yan's confidant general.
The Ba County Capital was originally in Jiangzhou. In order to resist Yuan Shu's attack, Yan Yan came to Langzhong to recruit troops.
As a result, before he could go to Jiangzhou City to support him, Jiangzhou was lost.
Yan Yan had a good relationship with Wu Yi's father when he was young, and Wu Yi was also Yan Yan's junior.
Therefore, although Wu Yi's official position is much higher than Yan Yan, he is respectful and afraid of the old general and can only sit in Yan Yan's lower head in the prefect's mansion.
Yan Yan said like a loud bell:
"One hundred thousand Dongzhou soldiers are in charge of the Jiancheng Jiangzhou, and only more than 30,000 people are left now!
I'm very curious, how did you fight this battle?"
Wu Yi was also embarrassed when he heard Yan Yan talk about his defeat.
He could not say that because Ma Zhong scolded him for being too harsh, he was lured out of Jiangzhou by the enemy, so he was defeated.
Wu Yi could only say with a shame:
"Yuan's army was cunning and used tricks to lure our army out of the city many times, so he was defeated by the bandits."
"snort!"
Yan Yan snorted coldly when he heard this, even his beard trembled.
"Even if the enemy has a thousand tricks, you just need to hold on to the deep ditches and high bases. The army has no food and will retreat if it leaves for two months.
If you can’t do such a simple thing well, it’s really a waste of your life to be a famous general in the Han Dynasty!”
No matter what, it is a fact that Wu Yi lost Jiangzhou City.
He knew that he was in the wrong, so he did not argue with Yan Yan, and allowed Yan Yan to scold him.
Yan Yan scolded Wu Yi, and most of the anger in his heart dissipated. Wu Yi then said carefully:
"The veteran general, Yuan Shu's troops are unstoppable all the way, and now they have arrived in Langzhong.
How should we deal with it?"
Yan Yan replied loudly:
"It was the case that the city was defended, so that Yuan's army could not advance in a state of progress.
With the treasure bow in my hand falling from the moon, and the precious sword Leng Yue slashing it, I will meet the capable people among Yuan’s army!”
......
Langzhong, Yuan Shu Daying.
Yuan Shu sat at the top of the central army's tent, and the civil and military officials sat on both sides.
The civil and military generals led by Yuan Shu were the confidant Xi Zhicai and the general Huang Zhong.
Yang Huai, the leader who just joined Yuan Shu, was also named a humble general by Yuan Shu and sat at the last place in the military seat.
Yang Huai was very satisfied with his treatment.
Not to mention anything else, I can’t tell how much better Yuan Shujun’s food is than Liu Yanjun.
Ordinary soldiers can eat meat every meal, which is better than the food of the centurion under Liu Yan.
Moreover, the standard armor and weapons are very good, far superior to the Yizhou Army. With these equipment, it is no wonder that Yuan Shu Army has been winning battles.
As a humble general, he was treated even more generously. Before he could reach Shouchun, Yuan Shu waved his hand and rewarded Yang Huai with a house in the south of Shouchun City.
With a bright future and the boss is so generous, Yang Huai couldn't help but burst into gratitude to Yuan Shu, and his loyalty rose to 60 points.
Yuan Shu glanced at Yang Huai and asked:
"General Yang Huai, do you know who this Langzhong garrison is? How many defenders are there in the city?"
When Yang Huai heard Yuan Shu ask him, he quickly got up from his seat and flatteredly bowed to Yuan Shu who was sitting in the first place:
"Report to the lord, the general who is stationed in Langzhong is Yan Yan, the prefect of Ba County.
Yan Yan is a famous general in Shu. When he was young, he was always known as the number one fierce general in Shu.
However, because of his age, the general Zhang Ren was in full swing, and the title of the number one military general fell on Zhang Ren.
However, although Yan Yan is old, her energy has not faded.
This person is good at drawing hard bows and using big swords. He has the courage to be unworthy of thousands of men. He is actually a strong enemy of our army!
Now Langzhong has 50,000 Xichuan troops trained by Yan Yan, and more than 30,000 Dongzhou troops under Wu Yi, the total strength is about 80,000."
Yang Huai changed his role very quickly, and naturally called Yuan Shu's army "our army" without any sense of incongruity.
Yuan Shu had heard of the title of veteran Yan Yan in his previous life, but this person was a bit of blood, but unfortunately he was captured by Zhang Fei using a trick.
I don’t know if Yan Yan is really as powerful as Yang Huai described.
After hearing Yang Huai's description of Yan Yan, veteran Huang Zhong couldn't help but stand up and bowed to Yuan Shu:
"Lord, since Yan Yan is also good at using a hard bow and using a big knife, Huang wants to fight with him, so please allow him!"
According to what Yang Huai said, the various characteristics of this veteran Yan Yan are really too similar to Huang Zhong.
Such an opponent who was very similar to him aroused Huang Zhong's competitive spirit, and then he stood up to ask for a fight.
Yuan Shu was still very confident in Huang Zhong's strength, and he nodded and agreed:
"Then tomorrow, General Huang will come to the city to fight, and I will personally control the old general!"
Huang Zhong said happily:
"Thank you lord!
The last general will definitely live up to the lord's high hopes, and will capture Yan Yan alive and present him to the lord's tent!"
In recent years, Huang Zhong’s reputation in Yangzhou has become increasingly popular. Everyone knows that he is an important general under Yuan Shu’s command.
However, since he did not rush to the enemy formation on the battlefield many times, he was even worse than Huang Xu, who repeatedly defeated powerful enemies in his reputation of bravery.
Huang Xu was Huang Zhong's biological son, and his reputation spread throughout the Han Dynasty, so Huang Zhong was of course happy.
But I was also a little disappointed when I was happy. Are I really old like me?
Now I heard that Yizhou veteran Yan Yan is as old as himself and dares to resist Yuan Shu's army with his sword and hard bow.
