Chapter 236

The next day, Zhang Song and his party were sent away. Zhang Fei immediately went up to his tent and sent out troops, leaving Li Yan to guard Jiangzhou. Su Fei took command of the navy and headed straight for Brazil.

Pang Tong ordered that military discipline be strictly enforced along the route, and no civilians were allowed to be robbed. However, those who disturbed the people would not be pardoned. If they lost the support of the people, the gain would not be worth the loss.

Fazheng had Liu Zhang's order, and the route was smooth, and supplies of food and grass were provided from various places. When they arrived at Dianjiang, they saw that the city gate was closed and no one came to greet them. Meng Da stepped forward to call the door.

I saw a veteran from the city walking out and said loudly: "I was ordered to let you go. You have gone through the border yourself, why do you need to enter the city?"

Meng Da tried to persuade him, but the veteran didn't open the door and went back to the city, so he had to come back to resume his duties.

Zhang Fei was furious when he heard this and was about to lead troops to attack the city. Fa Zheng advised: "Dianjiang guard Yan Yan is a famous general in Shu. He was a general in Jiangzhou before. Because the general came here and was transferred to Dianjiang, he must be unhappy. Don’t mess with him.”

Gan Ning said disdainfully: "I haven't seen him for more than ten years. This old thief is still alive. Now he has become an old soldier. Why should we be afraid? If he refuses to accept it, I will go and subdue him. It will be a good time to settle the grudges from back then."

When Liu Zhang succeeded Yizhou Mu, Gan Ning, Shen Mi, Lou Fa and others rebelled, but were defeated by Zhao Wei. The leading general at the time was Yan Yan, who shot Lou Fa to death with an arrow. This revenge has not yet been avenged.

Fazheng said: "Although Yan Yan is old, his energy has not declined. Dianjiang connects Jiangzhou and Langzhong. You cannot be an enemy of him at this time. After Sanba is stabilized, if you are still stubborn, it is not too late to fight again."

Zhang Fei sent his troops ten miles away from the city to rest in the stronghold, and sent people with official documents into the city to ask for food and grass.

Yan Yan followed Zhao Wei to quell the rebellion and became a general in Jiangzhou. However, due to Zhao Wei's rebellion, Liu Zhang no longer trusted the civil and military forces of Yizhou. He was never promoted and stayed in Jiangzhou to train troops.

A few years later, Liu Zhang suddenly issued an order to deal with Zhang Lu, and asked Jiangzhou to be used as bait. Isn't this meatballs beating a dog, and there will be no return?

Yan Yan was furious and wrote a letter asking for orders to send troops to capture Hanzhong, but others laughed at him for being old, weak, stubborn and overestimating his own capabilities.

Liu Zhang was wary of the military power of General Xichuan. Because Yan Yan had a high prestige in Shu, he did not dare to take action easily. He took the opportunity to transfer Yan Yan to Dianjiang County, leaving only 5,000 troops in his hand.

At this time, Liu Qi had taken Hanzhong, and Zhang Fei wanted to march into Bazhong again. Seeing that Bazhong was not safe and there was no danger in Shu, he was anxious and angry, but he had no choice but to let Zhang Fei enter the city.

Just as he was sighing, he ordered soldiers to enter the city and bring official documents to supply food and grass along the way. Yan Yan said angrily: "A certain leader of troops is stationed at the border, how can there be a surplus supply of food?"

The people in the future drank away, but as soon as they arrived at the door, they were stopped by someone, who ordered them to take the messenger to rest temporarily while they prepared a vehicle to transport food.

I saw this man in his twenties, with a dark complexion, bright eyes, and a heroic spirit between his brows. He was Yan Yan's apprentice Ju Fu.

Jufu is a native of Hanchang, Brazil. The Ju family is a Hanchang surname. However, because the Ba people caused rebellion and oppressed the Han people, most of the land in the tribe was occupied. Jufu was determined to drive away the Ba people and revitalize the family. At the age of eighteen, he went out to look for famous teachers. Zhou Deyan was highly regarded and called master and apprentice, but in fact he had the same affection as father and son.

Yan Yan's face was gloomy and he snorted coldly: "Jingzhou soldiers are ambitious, can't Xiaoxing see that?"

Ju Fuyan said: "Although Liu Qi intends to take Yizhou, Master's move will not only fail to preserve his reputation, but may also ruin his reputation."

Yan Yan said displeasedly: "I am loyal to my lord and fulfill my duties. What's wrong with that?"

Jufu advised: "Master asked for an order before, but was demoted to this place, which shows that the lord is dissatisfied. Now that the order has been issued here, if you continue to resist the army's orders, it will be disloyal. Please think again."

Yan Yan stroked his beard and said with a sneer: "The general is out there, and I have some objections to your orders. Dianjiang is located in the strategic area of ​​the Three Rivers. To guard against the Jingzhou soldiers in the south and to resist the Ba people in the north, it is best to gather grain and train troops. I will explain it to the lord."

Jufu advised: "Although everyone knows Liu Boxi's intentions, now that he has obtained Hanzhong, the gateway to Jiangzhou, he still refuses to use troops because his name is unfair! There is no reason to send troops. If Master disobeys orders and refuses to move,

Fei, the conflict between the two armies is to give others a reason. If the military disaster is caused by Master, wouldn't he become a sinner in Xichuan?"

Yan Yan sighed and said: "Although I hate Liu Qi for coveting Yizhou, he has a saying that is very good: Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of a country. My lord leads the tiger to defend himself, and sooner or later he will be devoured by the tiger. No one in Xichuan can take precautions.

Isn’t it heartbreaking?”

Ju Fuyan said: "Master is sincere and sincere, heaven and earth can learn from it, but my lord does not use it, it is like a pearl casting a secret shadow! In the current situation, is there no one in Chengdu to advise? Zhang Song, is Fa Zheng a stupid person? General Fu Bo once said:

Since ancient times, it is not the master who chooses his ministers, but the ministers who choose the king. At this time, everyone in Shu protects himself and watches the times. Master is no more than a mere county magistrate, so why force yourself to stand out and bring disaster upon yourself?"

Yan Yan was silent for a long time, and finally agreed to send only ten carts of food and grass, which was barely enough to comfort the troops, but not enough to provide military rations.

Jufu wanted to persuade him again, but Yan Yan returned to Houya. He could only sigh helplessly. Although Yan Yan was old, he had a fiery temperament. He was already dissatisfied with Zhang Fei, and he had to provide food and grass. He couldn't let go of his face.

, this is his last stubbornness.

In desperation, he had no choice but to transport grain out of the city himself, saying that in Dianjiang County, the treasury was empty, so he could only reluctantly reward the three armies, and the grain and grass still needed to be transported.

Zhang Fei said angrily: "I, Old Zhang, are helping Liu Yizhou to fight against thieves. How dare you be so negligent? I will go to the city to check now. If there is any food and grass, I will escort him to Chengdu for theory."

Fa Zheng hurriedly advised: "At this time, we should work together to fight against rebellion. We must not cause chaos among ourselves and make others laugh because of temporary anger."

Gan Ning laughed wildly and said: "Liu Yizhou passed down the order, how dare this old man disobey the order? If you don't show him some color, do you think we are easy to bully?"

Zhang Fei was encouraged by Gan Ning, and they mounted their horses and led the troops to the foot of Dianjiang City. They shouted to open the city. Yan Yan held on to the city and could not get out. Zhang Fei rushed straight to the bottom of the city and tried to cross the moat, but was shot back with random arrows.

Gan Ning yelled and cursed along the city, and was almost injured by Yan Yan's arrow. The two cursed for a while, and no one left the city at night, so he had to endure his anger and return to the camp.

Zhang Fei seized Jufu and wanted to behead him in protest. Pang Tong then advised: "Yide calm down, there is no food in the river, and we can just transport it from Jiangzhou. Why bother with an old county magistrate?"

Fazheng also hurriedly tried to persuade him, but Zhang Fei pointed at Jufu and cursed: "Yan Yan, an old man, doesn't know how to advance or retreat. If he bumps into my hand one day, I will definitely cut off his old head and use it as a wine flask."

Gan Ning laughed and said, "I'll be the chamber pot when you're done!"

Zhang Fei glared: "Are you taking advantage of me?"

Fazheng took advantage of the quarrel between the two and quickly asked Jufu to leave. Jufu did not expect such a situation, and was frightened by Zhang Fei and Gan Ning. He left in panic with cold sweat on his head.

Zhang Fei called the two men alone into the tent and complained: "I was just waiting for an excuse to send troops to capture Dianjiang, take Langzhong all the way, and escort Yan Yan, the old thief, to Yizhou to raise an army to question the crime. Can't you two gentlemen see it?

"

"General, are you feigning anger?" Fazheng was stunned. Thinking of Pang Tong's evaluation, he shook his head and said with a smile: "Yide is indeed both rough and fine!"

Zhang Fei snorted, stroking the stubble on his face: "Everyone says that I, Zhang Fei, are rude. Unless I don't know how to use tricks, I'm just too lazy to use tricks. A man goes to war on the battlefield, gallops around, destroys the dead and kills the generals. Then what?
