"General Liu, General Wen!" In the palace of the Lord of Hefei City, Li Yan saluted the dusty Liu Pan and Wen Pin with a respectful look. The two in front of him were the real pillars of the Jingxiang military general system. Once upon a time,
Li Yan also wanted to climb up through the two of them, but unfortunately he failed. But now that he has a new choice, he has an indescribable feeling when facing the two of them again.
"General Li, there is no need to be polite. This time he was able to capture Hefei in one fell swoop, and the general has contributed a lot. We would also like to congratulate the general. My lord has been promoted to general this time and will return to Xiangyang to report on his duties from now on." Liu Pan took out a general seal.
, handed it to Li Yan and said harmoniously.
Li Yan's previous status as a school lieutenant was promoted to Zhonglang General. In theory, it was indeed considered a high promotion. Zhonglang General, before the restoration of state animal husbandry, held the military power of the state and county, and his authority was not even lower than that of the governor of a state at that time. However,
With the restart of the state pastoral system and the story of the Samsara Three Kingdoms entering the era of vassals, the status of Zhonglang General became more embarrassing. Huang Zhong is the best example.
The Zhou Mu controls the military and political power of a state and has complete decision-making power. In name, there is a court on top of it. But in fact, in this era of chaos among the princes, a Zhou Mu is no different from the Tu Emperor. Naturally, there is no need for a lieutenant in the future.
Divide their own rights, so after the resumption of state animal husbandry, the princes from all sides have a tacit understanding to continuously weaken the power of General Zhonglang. Now, although General Zhonglang sounds good, in fact, he is not even as powerful as a school captain with real power. Liu Biao
One move was to rise up and down covertly, depriving Li Yan of his right to continue to lead an army alone.
"Thank you, Lord." Li Yan took the general's seal respectfully, with no dissatisfaction visible on his face.
"Zhengfang..." Wenpin looked at the expressionless Li Yan, moved his lips and said, "Actually, my lord doesn't want this, but Zhengfang made too much trouble in Lujiang before, so..."
"Yan knows." Before Wenpin could finish speaking, Li Yan had already interrupted Wenpin. With a relaxed smile on his face, he shook his head and said: "General Zhongye doesn't have to be like this. Although Yan has made some small achievements, he can't
To shirk his previous mistakes, the master did not punish him, so Yan is already very lucky."
"The fact that Zheng Fang thinks like this is really a sign of great prosperity for the lord. Zheng Fang can rest assured that things will happen in Hefei someday. I will definitely recommend it to the lord." Liu Pan was very satisfied with Li Yan's attitude and held Li Yan's hand affectionately without any hesitation.
Being stingy and writing a bad check.
"Yes, there is no need to rush into taking office anyway. There has been nothing important in Xiangyang City recently. Zheng Fang should be tired from the busy work these days. He should rest for a few days and get up again tomorrow." Wenpin said with a smile, this trip
The biggest problem in taking over Hefei is whether Li Yan is willing to cooperate. After all, the city was conquered by others. If Li Yan doesn't agree, they will have to go through a lot of trouble if they want to take over. In fact, the two of them have even thought about it before.
If Li Yan refused to accept it, they would join forces to restrain him and seize the city by force.
Now Li Yan has been very cooperative in handing over the management of Hefei City. Both Liu Pan and Wenpin are very satisfied. They have avoided a fight and are in a very happy mood. They did not notice anything strange flashing in Li Yan's eyes.
"Is everything okay in Jingxiang? Haha, something will happen soon." Coming out of the banquet hall, Li Yan silently showed a sarcastic smile. If he still felt a little guilty for betraying Liu Biao and joining the Sun family,
Now Liu Biao's ruthlessness had completely frustrated him, and the trace of guilt in his heart had disappeared.
Looking back at the brightly lit City Lord's Mansion, Li Yan sneered and left without any nostalgia. Early the next morning, Li Yan quietly left Hefei with the two thousand men and horses under his direct command, unlike the mighty five when he arrived.
Compared with Wan Dajun, the lineup at this time is a bit shabby. On the cold official roads, there are occasional complaints from Li Zheng and Ren Yuan...
…
Under the same moonlight, even in the night wind, there is still the unique heat of summer. But at this moment, in a small valley not far from Hefei City, Huang Zhong cannot feel the slightest warmth, only the bone-deep coldness.
Carry it through your heart.
A dark cloud covered the brilliance of the moonlight. In the small valley, there were stumps of limbs and broken arms everywhere. Only dozens of remaining Jingzhou soldiers fearlessly protected Huang Zhong.
Although Huang Zhong only began to shine in the later stages of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, as one of the Five Tiger Generals of the Shu Kingdom, and even able to fight against the martial sage Guan Yu at the age of sixty, there is no doubt about his ability.
Although it is not famous in the Jingzhou system, it was once famous in the earliest large-scale plot of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the Samsara Three Kingdoms.
"Old General Huang, Qingtian doesn't quite understand that Liu Jingsheng has no life-saving kindness or support for the old general. Now he is at the end of his rope. Even if he has any kindness, the general has already paid it back by reaching this step. Isn't it necessary?
Only by letting these loyal and brave soldiers accompany the general to death can we be considered loyal and righteous?" At the top of the valley, Qin Tian looked down at Huang Zhong's last remaining men and horses. Behind him, the elites of the Eight Hundred Jinfan Camp were ready to launch their arrows. All they needed to do was give the order.
, the random arrows were falling, Huang Zhong might be able to avoid being pierced by the random arrows with his peerless bravery, but those soldiers definitely did not have this ability.
Even though he was an enemy, Qin Tian had to admire Huang Zhong's methods. Not only his bravery, but also the two thousand Changsha Army. Even at an absolute disadvantage, not one of them backed down. Instead, they inspired infinite bravery. If it weren't for Qin Tian
It is not impossible to join forces with Gan Ning to entangle Huang Zhong and break out of the encirclement. This shows the veteran Huang Zhong's prestige in this army. Not to mention ordinary generals, he is one of the top historical generals under Qin Tian.
This is absolutely rare.
The more this happened, the less Qin Tian wanted to kill Huang Zhong.
"Humph!" Huang Zhong took a breath, slowly straightened his back, looked at Qin Tian from a distance across a hundred feet of space, and said sternly: "I am over fifty years old, a real man, what do you have to fear about death? Erlang?
Guys, are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid!" Although there are only a few dozen soldiers, the momentum exuded by this roar is like a thousand troops. The dozens of soldiers are like dozens of wolves in desperate situations, with bloodthirsty eyes radiating from each one.
Light, ready to die with the enemy at any time.
"Fire the arrow!" Qin Tian took a deep breath. For the superior, he must make a choice when it comes time to make a choice. Although the original purpose of ambushing Huang Zhong this time was to conquer Huang Zhong, the facts were unpredictable and Qin Tian did not expect it.
Huang Zhong has such a strong temper.
"Kill!" Almost at the same time, Huang Zhong held a big knife and launched a charge towards the top of the mountain at the same time as Qin Tian ordered. A big knife stirred up the knife cloud, and the surrounding air seemed to be attracted. Most of the arrows were struck by him alone.
Then, he rushed towards Qin Tian with overwhelming force.
"I feel more and more like a villain." Qin Tian said helplessly as he looked at the gray hair that was gradually dyed red by blood on the battlefield.
"Ah?" Gan Ning, who was standing beside him, looked at Qin Tian with some confusion.
"Nothing." Qin Tian shook his head, his eyes clear again. Ever since the Battle of Hulao Pass, his character has been marked as a villain in this game with the background of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and has won the support of those who loyally support him.
The NPCs in the Han Dynasty despised him.
"Do it. If you can capture him alive, try to capture him alive. If you can't... kill him!" Qin Tian slowly raised the Nine Heavens Dragon Soul Essence in his hand. Qin Tian's eyes gradually became sharper. Although he didn't want to kill Huang Zhong, it wasn't his intention, but not every one.
Everything can be controlled by him. Now the two armies are fighting. Although he has an absolute advantage in terms of ordinary soldiers, Qin Tian knows very well that to deal with a top general like Huang Zhong, doubling his strength will not be enough.
In the competition between generals, Gan Ning and himself, a newly promoted second-grade general, faced off against Huang Zhong. It was difficult to tell who was stronger and who was weaker. When the strength reached a certain level, relying solely on the data given by the system,
There is no way to predict the outcome of a battle. Otherwise, if everyone sits down and compares their attributes, nothing will happen. That would be so simple...
As for generals such as Yu Du and Liu Shi, Qin Tian did not count them. They were not in a position to intervene in a battle between first-class generals.
"Changlang~"
The two broadswords collided under the night sky, bursting out with bright light. The violent air waves generated by the fight between the two directly shook the surrounding ordinary soldiers and flew backwards.
Qin Tian groaned, raised his golden spear, drew a perfect arc in the air, and stabbed Huang Zhong in the ribs.
"Roar~"
If Qin Tian had not been in his eyes before, but with Qin Tian's spear thrust out, Huang Zhong no longer dared to despise this 'notorious' enemy. This spear alone has almost explained the characteristics of the gun to the extreme.
, and the distorted vision around the gun tip is a sign that the marksmanship is close to perfection. No one dares to despise this gun, not even a top general like Huang Zhong.
With a roar and a swipe of the sword in his hand, Huang Zhong advanced instead of retreating, blocking Qin Tian's shot as the gun point approached.
Gan Ning took advantage of the situation and ducked to Huang Zhong's side. He followed the sword with him and slashed towards Huang Zhong's waist. However, Qin Tian missed the blow but was not discouraged. The tip of his gun trembled, and a gun flower suddenly appeared and covered Huang Zhong.
's head.
Facing the siege of Qin Tian and Gan Ning, Huang Zhong was not afraid. He showed off his sword skills and fought with the two men without losing any of them.
Although it was difficult for Qin Tian to suppress Huang Zhong, the soldiers on both sides quickly determined the winner. Although the Changsha blood soldiers led by Huang Zhong were not afraid of death, Qin Tian could not fight regardless of Gan Ning's Jinfan.
The battalion or the Black Mountain bandits are no worse than the Changsha Blood Soldiers. Maybe they are not determined to die, but they have an absolute numerical advantage. Although these Changsha Blood Soldiers are bloody and brave, they are unable to defeat the four-handed tigers with two fists.
Unable to withstand the large number of wolves, they were quickly annihilated by the roaring army.
"Ah~"
Huang Zhong was distracted on the battlefield, and Qin Tian took the opportunity to stab his right arm. He let out a roar of grief and anger, forced Gan Ning away with his knife, and slashed out with his backhand. Although Qin Tian tried his best to dodge, a long knife mark was still left on his chest.
, although the defensive power of the first-grade armor is considered to be the top among ordinary equipment, it did not have much effect under Huang Zhong's hateful sword. If Qin Tian hadn't dodged quickly, the sword would have been fatal.
"Lord!" Gan Ning saw that Qin Tian was injured and ignored Huang Zhong. He quickly stepped in front of Qin Tian and Huang Zhong took the opportunity to escape. Whether it was the Jinfan Camp or the Black Mountain bandit, facing this tiger out of the cage,
They all seemed powerless. Without the obstruction of Qin Tian and Gan Ning, Huang Zhong easily broke out.
"No need to chase!" Qin Tian waved his hand to stop Gan Ning. Huang Zhong's strength exceeded Qin Tian's expectation. At the same time, seeing Huang Zhong escape, even Qin Tian didn't know it, and he breathed a sigh of relief deep in his heart.
