Yanxing was stationed on another island in the middle of the lake. The two islands were not far from each other and were connected by a pontoon bridge. The bridge deck was not wide and could only accommodate two or three people walking side by side.
When Yan Baihu arrived outside Yan Xing's handsome tent, Yan Xing was furious inside the tent.
In the previous territory of Wu County, apart from Yan Baihu, Yan Xing was the most noble. In addition, Yan Baihu always doted on his younger brother, who was excellent in martial arts, which naturally made Yan Xing develop the habit of being a talkative playboy.
Recently, Wang Lang led the remnants of his troops to escape into Wu County, and naturally became the second person in Wu County.
Yan Xing couldn't accept it for a while, so he quarreled with Yan Baihu several times in private.
Later, Hua Xin and Yu Fan's outstanding talents attracted Yan Baihu's attention. Now Yan Xing felt even more abandoned by his own brother.
Fortunately, Lu Su led his army to attack, and when Yan Baihu ordered the generals, Yan Xing was still the number two figure in Wu County's military.
Just a few days after he was happy, Yan Xing encountered another messenger who refused to pass on the information to him. He had to see Yan Baihu before he spoke. This time it really stabbed his lungs. He was furious and could no longer describe Yan Xing.
Xing, this guy seemed to be a master with just two kicks. He jumped up and down in the handsome tent, shouted and yelled, and never stopped for a moment.
When Yan Baihu stepped into the handsome tent, Yan Xing was facing away from the tent, holding a sword and waving it wildly.
"Axing, what are you doing?"
Yan Xing turned around and saw that it was his eldest brother who was coming in person. He was like a mouse seeing a cat, and he immediately became honest.
Yan Baihu, command 67, force 70, intelligence 23, politics 21, charm 39.
Yan Xing, Command 61, Force 78, Intelligence 44, Politics 20, Charisma 28.
In terms of ability, Yan Xing's martial arts is actually superior to Yan Baihu's, but the two brothers have a very good relationship, and Yan Xing has never thought of replacing him. On the contrary, when he sees his eldest brother Yan Baihu, he immediately becomes numb and even loses his temper.
I dare not say much.
Yan Baihu looked at the messenger in front of him intently, and his previous suspicions suddenly disappeared.
He knew the person who was coming, and he was one of Wang Lang's confidants. He followed Wang Lang all day long, and he could be said to be loyal and devoted to Wang Lang.
No wonder the messenger was not afraid of Yan Xing's threats and insisted on waiting for Yan Baihu's arrival.
"Mr. Jingxing came here, but what big thing happened in Wucheng?"
"Yes, Mr. Wang ordered me to come and ask Mr. Yan to quickly return the army to Wucheng. Because Yuan Shu from Jiujiang suddenly borrowed the road from Danyang, the army has already reached Dantu and Qu'a."
When Yan Xing heard this, he became furious: "Yuan Jiujiu is a bastard. He is always taking advantage of others' misfortune. He is trying to destroy the foundation of my Yan family!"
Yan Baihu also felt sad for a while, as the thing he was most worried about happened.
Just when the Yan brothers were getting discouraged, Wang Lang's generals Xu Gong and Zhou Xin hurried in.
"Master Yan, no
Have you ever received an urgent report from Wucheng?"
Yan Baihu turned his head and looked at Xu Gong and Zhou Xin. They just snorted in their noses and did not answer.
Zhou Xin clasped his hands in his hands and said, "Yuan Highway is using the road to attack, so the food road will inevitably be unstable. I also ask Mr. Yan and General Yan to return to Wucheng quickly. As long as we can defeat the enemy as soon as possible, our Wu County will still have a way to survive. In the end,
Although the general is incompetent, I would like to issue a military order to Lord Yan. Unless he steps on my corpse, Sun Jun will never cross Taihu Lake."
Yan Baihu's eyes lit up immediately.
If Zhou Xin and Xu Gong could really defend Taihu Lake for a month, he would have the confidence to drive the invading enemies from the north out of Wu County.
"General Zhou, there is no need for joking in the army."
Zhou Xin and Xu Gong took a step forward at the same time: "There is a mistake in Taihu's defense line. Please ask Master Yan to take our heads!"
Yan Baihu and Yan Xing happily led their troops back to Wucheng overnight.
I originally thought that the dark night was coming, but unexpectedly, a ray of light suddenly appeared.
It's just that I don't know how many enemies Yuan Jiujiu has invaded, and Wang Lang's messenger can't tell where they are.
But since they came by borrowing a road, they probably wouldn't have too many troops, otherwise Liu Yao would not dare to let go of the river route and allow the Jiujiang army to pass through.
The next morning, the Yan brothers led their troops to the gates of Wucheng.
Unexpectedly, the gates of Wucheng were closed tightly, the city was silent, and not even a single person could be seen.
Yan Xing grabbed the reins of Yan Baihu's horse and said, "Brother, wait a minute, there seems to be something strange in the city. Please wait until the younger brother goes forward and call the door."
Without waiting for Yan Baihu's consent, Wucheng was bombarded with artillery fire, and countless ambushed soldiers and horses rushed out, tightly surrounding the Yan brothers.
There was a general in the lead, a horse with a curly green mane on his crotch, and a golden-threaded cold light halberd in his palm. He was none other than General Gan Ning Gan Xingba.
Gan Ning stretched out his hand and pointed at Yan Baihu: "Hey Yan Hu, your Grandpa Gan is here. Why don't you get off your horse and be captured? If you make Grandpa Gan angry and take your lives with a halberd, don't blame Grandpa Gan."
It was unforeseen."
Yan Baihu's original name was Yan Hu, and he was also nicknamed Bai Hu. Later, when more people called him, the name Bai Hu replaced his real name.
Not many people know about this matter, and only the brothers who were on the road in the early years have heard about it a little bit. In the past ten years, no one has mentioned it.
When Yan Baihu heard that the visitor could call him by his real name and called himself Grandpa Gan, his heart was turned upside down and he felt vaguely bad.
Yan Xing, however, didn't have so many ideas. When he heard that the enemy general on the opposite side dared to insult his elder brother, he immediately screamed and urged his horse to kill Gan Ning.
Gan Ning immediately shouted hello and waved his halberd to greet Yan Xing.
How can Yan Xing's 78 points of force compete with Gan Ning's 98 points of force?
The two fought for only two rounds. Gan Ning knocked away Yan Xing's weapon with a halberd. Then he borrowed two horses to pedal, grabbed the belt around Yan Xing's waist, and pushed it hard into his arms: "Come over here."
Bar!"
Yan Xing was obedient and came over as soon as he was told. His hands and feet were curled up into a ball, and he was carried by Gan Ning on his horse obediently.
Gan Ning rode his horse back to the main formation and threw Yan Xing to the ground: "Come here, tie him up."
All the personal guards rushed forward, wiped their shoulders and folded their arms, and tied Yan Xing tightly.
When Yan Baihu saw that his brother had been captured alive, he shouted loudly and waved his hand to order the army to attack. He personally led his own soldiers to snatch the man.
Unexpectedly, just as he was halfway through the charge, a large black man from the left wing came rushing towards him on a Pegasus. After only one round of fighting, he knocked Yan Baihu off his horse. He held a big knife under Yan Baihu's neck with one hand and shouted in a deep voice: "Order."
All troops lay down their weapons and surrender, otherwise I will kill you."
Yan Baihu sighed and refused to give the order to surrender. He just closed his eyes and waited for the big black man to kill him.
The big black man is none other than General Zhou Tai.
Zhou Tai saw that Yan Baihu had a tough temper and refused to admit defeat, so he used his right arm to kill him.
Fortunately, Jiang Qin came from the other side on a flying horse and waved to Zhou Tai repeatedly: "You Ping's sword spared his life. Mr. Wen He asked you to spare his life."
The Yan brothers were captured by mistake, and the Yan family's army was leaderless. They just rushed around in confusion for a long time, then gradually lost their courage and knelt down to ask for surrender.
Jia Xu set up an ambush under the walls of Wucheng and killed all the Yan brothers in just one battle. From then on, the territory north of Taihu Lake in Wu County was given the surname Lin.
After leaving the Yan brothers under Wang Lang's care, Jia Xu quickly led his army southward and took over the defense lines of Xu Gong and Zhou Xin.
Lu Su was in the commander's tent and received information from the front line.
The banners of the Yan brothers suddenly disappeared and were replaced by their old rivals in Kuaiji, Zhou Xin and Xu Gong.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Su guessed the answer.
Either Wang Lang plotted against the Yan brothers, or a fire broke out in the Yan brothers' backyard and they were attacked by a third party. They had to go back to put out the fire and handed over the Taihu defense line to Zhou Xu for the second time.
For Lu Su, it was much easier to defeat Zhou Xin and Xu Gong than to defeat the Yan brothers.
At first, these two men were defeated generals. They had been beaten into obedience in Kuaiji and they did not dare to fight.
Second, the Yan brothers were able to use Taihu Lake to temporarily block Lu Su's advance, but they relied on their familiarity with the waterways and the favorable location to hold on. If it were Zhou and Xu, they were not as familiar with Taihu as the Yan brothers. Lu Su only needed to
With a little bit of planning, Zhou and Xu can be manipulated in the palm of your hand, and you won't have to worry about not being able to capture Taihu Lake.
At that moment, Lu Su beat drums and gathered his generals, preparing to take advantage of the absence of the Yan brothers to break through the Taihu defense line and march to the gates of Wucheng.
