Royal road

"Youzhou is here?" Yiyan frowned just hearing the word Youzhou.

Watching the situation all the time, how could he not know about Sima Yue's sudden death.Youzhou's actions afterwards made Yiyan extremely anxious.Jicheng has increased its troops by [-], and all the troops in Jizhou must be mobilized to press down on Bingzhou?The total number of troops far exceeds the number that the Lord can handle. No matter how he responds, it will plunge Bingzhou into an unprecedented crisis.

Just when he wished to send troops immediately, he heard the news of Youzhou's envoy, how could he not surprise Yiyan.But only for a moment, his expression returned to the original: "Please come in!"

After being politely welcomed into the tent, Wei Tong finally met the legendary Jie general.Although the other party had ugly eyes and a menacing aura, he didn't show any signs of abnormality. He gave a generous salute and sat down in front of Yiyan.

"I don't know what's the matter with Wei Yan coming to Jizhou?" Yiyan asked straight to the point, as if he didn't notice his demeanor.

Not caring about the other party's faux pas, Wei Tong said loudly: "General Yi only took half a year to capture Yecheng and pacify Jizhou. He is indeed an incomparable talent. Why should he live in a corner?"

The meaning of these words is too obvious.Yiyan's complexion changed: "How do you say that?"

This is knowingly asking.Wei Tong's demeanor was more comfortable, and he said with a smile: "Doesn't General Yi know the situation in the world? Now the king of the East China Sea has died suddenly, and there is no one in the court. My family has tens of thousands of soldiers, and it is time to enter Luo and achieve supremacy. The general has fought hard all these years, and only But won the post of captain, isn't it a waste of talent? Why don't you choose another master and show off your ambitions!"

His words were full of provocative colors, and he also pointed out the purpose of his coming.This is a lobbyist sent by Wang Jun, who wants to take him, a potential enemy who occupies the southeast of Jizhou and most of Sizhou, for his own use.

It is not surprising to have this idea.One month after Yiyan started the war in You Bing, he was too peaceful.He didn't dispatch troops and generals, and he didn't plot Jizhou, and he completely forgot about the original master.How can such an indifferent and profit-driven attitude keep Wang Jun from thinking?What's more, he is also a Capricorn.

Seeing that Yiyan didn't answer, the smile on Wei Tong's face became more cordial and sticky: "The general comes from a foreign race, and knows how difficult it is to get ahead. Even if you have talent, it's hard to show off. Although the Langya Wang family treats people with kindness and amiability How can I treat the general well? And the governor of my family, who has lived in Youyan for a long time, has countless Xianbei soldiers and horses under his command, and knows that his talents have nothing to do with his race. The invitation to the general this time is also sincere. Shi Wuer!"

Duan Xianbei and Yuwen Xianbei are Wang Jun's sons-in-law.The meaning of these words is clearly to marry Wang's daughter to Yiyan and treat him as a true confidant.This is a real kindness. After all, he only has Banzhou in his hands, and there are no more than ten thousand soldiers. How can it compare to the two Xianbei soldiers?

Yiyan's brows twitched: "The last general is humble, how can he be worthy of such great love from the commander-in-chief?"

His tone weakened, and he even changed his title to the last general.Wei Tong laughed when he heard the words: "Why should the general be self-effacing? There is a girl in the palace, who is twelve years old, and she is beautiful and lovely. Wouldn't it be a match made in heaven to match a young talent like the general?"

This may not be a daughter, it may be the generation of Wang Jun's granddaughter.Wang Jun's legitimate son is still young, so naturally he won't have a legitimate granddaughter.But then again, so what if she is a concubine?That's a girl from the Wang family in Taiyuan!With only two daughters, Duan's and Yuwen's sworn allegiance was obtained, isn't it also because of Wang Jun's generosity?How can anyone in the world pay so much attention to these Rongdi alien races!

The expression on Yiyan's face became more complicated, and finally he let out a long sigh: "Dare to ask how the governor wants to send the last general?"

"As long as the general leads his troops to the big tent, help my family's governor take down Bingzhou." Wei Tong's expression also changed, revealing a sinister and greedy smile, "The general was born in Bingzhou, so he should be familiar with the defense of the state. If the general can Why worry about the future if you help the governor win over Jihe?"

This time, Yi Yan paused for a longer time: "My soldiers are all scattered in counties and counties. If they are recruited, I'm afraid it will take a few days."

Wei Tong hurriedly said: "The governor wants to use only the general. He has [-] strong soldiers, and he will be sent by the general!"

Wang Jun also had concerns. If Yiyan led more than 1 men to the big tent, it would be difficult to deal with any troubles if they caused trouble.The two have no cooperation, nor friendship, they are just empty promises, how can they be taken seriously?

"So, I'll take two thousand fine cavalry with me and go to see the governor." Yi Yan backed down a step, but still asked to bring two thousand soldiers.

Wei Tong can also understand this point, the doubts are mutual, if Yiyan doesn't bring any soldiers, he will be bold and arrogant.But what is the number of two thousand?Surrounded by an army of [-], it may be difficult to protect themselves.So no more, no less, in order to show the sincerity of the contributors.

"The general's soldiers and horses are well-known all over the world. It's really Youzhou's fortune to be selected as the front." Wei Tong rubbed his knees and smiled, "If it's convenient, please leave immediately, general, and follow the officials to Fanyang."

Wang Jun has already set off from Jicheng, and will soon arrive at the border of Youji.This battle cannot be delayed, and we must keep the secrets strictly, so the sooner the better.

Yi Yan nodded happily: "Don't worry, Wei Wei, in just one day, the general will be able to lead the army to set off."

This speed is not too slow, how could Wei Tong refuse?After a few more instructions, the servant led him down to rest.

When the figure of that person disappeared, Yiyan immediately said: "Chuan Jiang Sima and Liu Yingzheng."

Army commander Ma Jiangying and battalion commander Liu Gong are the two generals under Yi Yan's command.Hearing the coach's summons, how dare he neglect?The two quickly came to the tent.

His gaze like a knife's edge flashed across their faces, and Yi Yan said coldly: "Wang Jun sent an envoy, promised to treat him generously, and ordered me to go to the tent to listen to the order. I have already agreed, and tomorrow I will bring two thousand The soldiers went to Youzhou."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of both of them changed drastically.Jiang Ying reacted first: "The general wants to feign surrender? How can two thousand soldiers do it?!"

He didn't think Yiyan would really rebel, so he immediately recognized the coach's intentions.However, Wang Jun's camp has [-] soldiers and horses, and only [-] soldiers. If it's not death, what is it? !

Liu Gong also said anxiously: "Yes, General, Wang Jun has brought [-] elite this time. If it fails, won't it ruin the overall situation?"

Their soldiers and horses are the key to the battle between You and Bing.If you go to the enemy camp at this time, you will be successful.If you lose, what should you do?

Two thousand against forty thousand, it's still a false surrender!What an adventure!

"The key to this battle is Wang Jun. Only by killing this man can the siege of Bingzhou be resolved." Yiyan's voice was not loud, but he carried firmness that could not be refuted. ?”

Both Jiang Ying and Liu Gong kept their mouths shut.How could they not know the situation that Bingzhou was about to face?This battle is probably the Lord's battle at Guandu.If you win, you can become king and hegemony; if you lose, you will lose your life!If he could kill Wang Jun, he would indeed be able to take a drastic hit and win with one blow.It's just that it's too risky!

"The champion marquis has eight hundred light cavalry, so he dared to rush for a hundred miles, and beheaded the chief chieftain. Zhang Wenyuan's eight hundred rebellious men can also retreat the one hundred thousand army of Dongwu. Now I have two thousand fine cavalry, and it is a false surrender. How can I Can you give it a go?" Yiyan stood up and clenched his fists slightly, "My lord's kindness to us is just as reported in today's daily newspaper!"

Jiang Ying was originally a scholar, of course he knew the battle examples he mentioned, which one was not the key battle to turn things around?A general of Liu Gong's level has also learned a lot of military art, and when he heard these two names, he felt that his blood was on fire.Suddenly, he stood up: "The final general is willing to kill Wang Jun for his lord!"

Jiang Ying hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "This matter should be reported to the Lord..."

"It's too late." Yiyan's eyes flickered with an unreadable shake.Not only is it too late, if the lord finds out, will he really be put in danger?But this time, even if the lord wants to stop, he must do it!

"Liu Gong, you lead a hundred people to Yecheng, and I want you to bring something..." After Yiyan gave detailed instructions, he turned to Jiang and said, "Jiang Sima, Jizhou is entrusted to you. Once Wang Jun's battalion Defeat, send troops to Changshan quickly, and take down Jingxing!"

There was a pause in his words: "Also, if the lord is here, please plead guilty to him on my behalf. Just say that you will be the last general, and you will definitely not let the lord work hard."

These words were tragic and sincere, and Jiang Ying's eyes became hot when he said it, and he said in a choked voice: "This battle is dangerous, the general must be careful!"

So far, how can there be room for turning around?Both of them received the military order and went down to make arrangements, but Yiyan was left alone in the tent.His eyes turned around in the military tent where he had lived for several months, and landed on the couch in the inner room.He didn't know what he thought of, and his face was a little more melancholy and sad.Seemingly hesitating for a moment, Yiyan finally took a step, walked to the side of the couch, reached out and took out a small wooden box from the bedside.

Gently brushing the lid of the box that was extremely smooth and silhouetted, Yiyan opened the box and took out the things that had been treasured for a long time.It was a Buddha statue, small and exquisite, with vivid eyebrows and eyes, just like a flower in the epiphyllum, untainted by the world.

That's what he should have given away.Give it to your loved ones.

Taking a deep breath, Yiyan cut off a piece of silk ribbon, tied it on the Buddha statue, and put it around his neck with his backhand.The warm and flawless white jade slid into the skirt of the shirt and landed on the chest, clinging to the flesh, instantly soaked with body temperature.Stretching out his hand to press on his chest, Yiyan no longer indulged in it, and strode out of the tent.

On the second day, two thousand riders escorted Wei Tong's car and drove towards Youzhou.A group of hundreds of light cavalry also left Jizhou and galloped towards Weijun.

In less than a day, this small team entered Yecheng without any obstruction, and went straight into the prefect's mansion.

Wang Ping is still worried about the death of the King of the East China Sea these days, and he is even more worried about whether his uncle Wang Yan will be implicated.At this moment, hearing the report from the servants, Liu Ying was attending, so he couldn't help being taken aback.Isn't this person Yiyan's confidant?Why did you suddenly come back from Jizhou?

Seeing nothing wrong, although Wang Ping was bored, he straightened his clothes and said reservedly: "Order him to come in."

Armed with a sword and wearing shoes, Liu Gong strode into Wang Ping's study, and regardless of his astonished expression, he cupped his hands and said, "In the name of my general, I'm here to ask the lord for something."

Wang Ping opened his eyes wide: "Please, what are you asking for?"

His body has been shaking involuntarily, like a mouse in a hole, smelling the breath of a cat.

Liu Gong didn't answer, and Dian Flash seemed to draw out his long sword.There was a flash of silver and cold light, blood spattered everywhere, and with a bang, Dou Da's head fell on the mat.

Regardless of the screams from the maid beside him, Liu Gong bent down, picked up the head, and said coldly, "Use the head."
