Lu Bu pressed tightly, and Yuan Tan turned his head to glance at Qin Jun who was following behind him.

The soldiers of the Qin army lined up in a neat line, and the blades in their hands shone coldly in the sun.

Just glanced at the Qin army column, and Yuan Tan gasped in his heart.

With the support of such an army, Lu Bu spoke with a very tough confidence.

The way of the world is like this, whoever has a big fist will have the strength to speak.

There are only thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, and the combat strength of the Yuan army is not at the same level as the Qin army, so he openly opposes it, and the only result is to annoy Lu Bu and knock him over on the spot.

Knowing that the soldiers and horses under his command were no matter whether they were fighting alone or competing, they were all Lu Bu's opponents, Yuan Tan's face was like ashes, he nodded heavily, and said to Lu Bu: "But it's up to the general to decide!" ”

As soon as he said this, the corners of Lu Bu's mouth immediately formed a smile, and he said to Yan Liang beside him: "General Yan Liang, you will take over the Yuan army in the city." ”

Hearing that Lu Bu said that he wanted to incorporate Yuan Jun, Yuan Tan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What does the general mean by this?" ”

"Since our army has come to Hebei, we will drive Cao Cao to extermination!" Turning his head to look at Yuan Tan, Lu Bu always said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Although there are not many soldiers and horses under the general's command, they can go on the battlefield, but they are also a help!" Could it be that the general refused to annihilate Cao Cao? ”

was asked by Lu Bu, Yuan Tan was stunned for a moment, although he felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't find the words to refute it.

Lü Bu led the army into Liyang, and soon after, the army led by Wei Yan also advanced outside Yecheng.

Riding side by side with Wei Yan was Chen Lin, who offered Liu Wei a plan to seize Hebei.

When he arrived outside Yecheng City, Chen Lin shook off the reins, rode his horse to the foot of the city wall, and shouted to the city wall with his face up: "The King of Qin ordered General Wei Yan to lead 30,000 troops to come to the aid of Yecheng, and the defenders in the city should quickly present their son!" ”

The Yuan army at the head of the city saw a large army advancing outside the city wall, and he was already panicked in his heart, and when he saw Chen Lin riding his horse and running to the foot of the city wall, shouting that it was the Qin army who came, they all let go of their hearts.

"Chen Gong is not waiting, so I will go to present my son!" At the head of the city, a Yuan army general stretched out his head and shouted to Chen Lin at the foot of the city wall.

"There is General Law!" Chen Lin nodded at the general, and then stood at the foot of the city wall, waiting for Yuan Shang to arrive.

Due to the arrival of Cao's army in Hebei, the Qin army did not know whether it would come, and Yuan Shang was also restless in the past few days, walking around the city wall all day long, for fear that Cao's army would suddenly come and be caught off guard.

Not long after the general left, Yuan Shang ran to the side of the city wall where Chen Lin was stationed.

He first held the battlements with both hands and glanced at Chen Lin under the city, and then shouted to Chen Lin: "Please ask the Qin army master to speak under the city!" ”

Yuan Shang didn't open the city immediately, and Chen Lin also knew that he still had some doubts about the identity of the army outside the city, so he arched at him with his fists and said, "Don't be annoyed!" ”

As he spoke, Chen Lin turned around his war horse and ran towards the main formation of the Qin army.

When he arrived at the Qin military marshal, Chen Lin said to Wei Yan, who was leading the army: "Yuan Shang, please speak to the general!" ”

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he turned his head to look at Chen Lin, Wei Yan didn't speak, just clamped his legs towards the horse's belly, and rode the horse towards the city wall of Yecheng.

When he arrived at the foot of the city wall, he lifted the reins, arched his fist at Yuan Shang at the head of the city, and shouted: "The last general, Wei Yan, on the order of the King of Qin, has come to the aid of Hebei, and I hope that the general will open the city!" ”

Standing on the city wall, Yuan Shang did not order the city to be opened immediately, but shouted to Wei Yan: "The general can station the army outside the city......"

"Childe's words are ridiculous!" Without waiting for Yuan Shang to finish speaking, the corners of Wei Yan's mouth twitched, and he turned his face to Yuan Shang at the head of the city and shouted: "Our army came to help from afar, because Gongzi asked His Highness for help. Since Childe did not allow us to enter the city, he led the army to leave! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Yan pocketed his war horse, turned around, and rode his horse towards the Qin army's large array, while shouting loudly: "The whole army obeys the order and returns to Luoyang immediately!" ”

The reason why the city was not opened to the Qin army was only because Yuan Shang was a little worried that the Qin army would enter the city and deprive him of his military power.

Although there are not many soldiers and horses in his hands, the remaining troops are still the capital that Yuan Shang relies on to survive.

Once he was stripped of his military power by the Qin army, from then on, he was just a puppet, not even a puppet, after all, it was the King of Qin who robbed him of his military power, not other tyrants.

I thought that Wei Yan would lead the army to be stationed outside the city, but he didn't expect that he would annoy Wei Yan with just one sentence.

Seeing Wei Yan riding his horse towards the Qin army's array, and shouting loudly as he galloped for the Qin army to withdraw to Luoyang immediately, Yuan Shang's heart suddenly felt a great hurry.

The news that the siege of Liyang was lifted by the Qin army had reached Yecheng, the Qin army was stationed in Liyang City, and the Cao army did not dare to attack the city, and their choice would only be a city without the Qin army.

If there is a Qin army outside Yecheng, Yuan Shang can sit back and relax, but once the Qin army withdraws, Yecheng is in danger.

"The general stays!" The Qin army's large array in the distance had already moved, Wei Yan also ran out of some distance, Yuan Shang pressed the battlements with both hands, and shouted loudly: "Please enter the city!" ”

Hearing Yuan Shang's shout, Wei Yan felt a little proud in his heart.

He didn't look like he was in a hurry to enter the city, but slowly grabbed his horse, turned around, and walked back towards the city wall of Yecheng at an extremely slow speed.

Approaching the foot of the city wall, Wei Yan raised his face and shouted to Yuan Shang at the head of the city, "What did the son say? ”

"Please enter the city!" Holding the battlements with both hands, Yuan Shang, who was already a little anxious in his heart, hurriedly shouted to Wei Yan again.

"The last general will enter the city, and the soldiers under his command must suffer outside the city?" The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, Wei Yan showed a sneer, and shouted to Yuan Shang at the head of the city: "Childe is not sincere, a certain leader is leaving, if Cao Jun comes, Childe will go elsewhere to ask for reinforcements!" ”

Choked on Wei Yan's words, Yuan Shang shouted: "The general enters the city, and the soldiers are also settled in the city!" ”

What he wanted was his words, and as soon as he finished speaking, Wei Yan beckoned towards the Qin army in the distance.

Seeing Wei Yan beckoning, Zhang Liao and Tai Shici, who led the Qin army in the distance, both rode horses and led the army to approach Yecheng.

The Qin army was coming towards Yecheng, and Yuan Shang also knew that if the city was not opened at this time, Wei Yan was afraid that he would really lead the army to withdraw.

The Qin army led by Wei Yan was not the same as the one that rushed to the aid of Liyang, but they were all soldiers and horses of Great Qin.

Even if they are not invited into the city and let them leave, once Yecheng is besieged in the future, they still have to ask for help from the Qin army in Liyang.

At that time, it is still two to say whether he can ask for reinforcements, and even if he does, as long as the Qin army wants to cut his military power, it will not be difficult.

Sooner or later, he couldn't escape a catastrophe, Yuan Shang turned his heart sideways, and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Open the city immediately to meet the Qin army!" ”

His own soldiers, who had received his orders, turned around and ran quickly towards the city wall.

Not long after the soldiers ran down the city wall, the heavy gate of Yecheng slowly opened.

Wei Yan, who was closest to the city, did not move, but stood outside the city, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Qin army.

The 30,000 Qin troops marched in a neat pace, turned into a column, and advanced towards the city gate.

Seeing that the Qin army was about to enter the city, Yuan Shang slowly closed his eyes and sighed heavily.

has fought many battles with Cao Jun, and today's Yuan Jun has long been different from what it used to be.

When the Yuan army was in full swing, its combat strength was not as good as the Qin army, and now the army has been consumed to the point where it is difficult to replenish the troops.

Standing under the walls of Yecheng, he waited until the Qin army advanced behind him, and then Wei Yan beckoned behind him, clamped his legs on the horse's belly, and rode his horse into the city gate.

Zhang Liao and Tai Shici followed closely behind him, offering Chen Lin to Liu Wei to capture Hebei, and rode side by side with Wei Yan.

Entering Yecheng, just looking around at the Yuan army as far as he could see, Wei Yan could already see that Yuan Shang did not have much combat power under his command now.

With this bit of men and horses in his hands, once the Cao army comes, don't say that one Yecheng, even if there are ten Yecheng, it will not be able to withstand the onslaught of the Cao army.

Wei Yan led the army into the city, and Yuan Shang on the city wall had already run down and stood on the inside of the city gate.

Seeing Wei Yan approaching, Yuan Shang clasped his fists with both hands, looked at Wei Yan and said, "The tired general has come from afar, and today he should prepare a banquet to catch the wind for the general!" ”

The Qin army behind him also drove into Yecheng in a steady stream, standing in front of Yuan Shang, Wei Yan did not jump off the horse, but arched towards Yuan Shang with his fists and said: "Hebei is the foundation of the Yuan family, if Yuan Gong knows that there is today, it is difficult to look down under Jiuquan." His Royal Highness thanked Yuan Gong for his loyalty and righteousness, and specially ordered a certain to come to the aid and exterminate Cao Cao! ”

Wei Yan did not dismount, and his attitude was very arrogant, but Yuan Shang did not dare to show the slightest displeasure on his face, but instead hugged his fists and bowed down and said: "General Lao has come all the way to help!" ”

"Childe, don't prepare any wine banquet!" Riding on horseback, looking at Yuan Shang standing in front of him with his fists folded, Wei Yan said to him: "Cao Jun is still in Hebei, and now there are a few things that are more important than a banquet!" ”

"The general has orders, just speak!" Putting down the fists he had picked up, looking up at Wei Yan standing in front of him, Yuan Shang said to him: "If His Royal Highness the King of Qin has an order, he will obey it!" ”

Nodding towards Yuan Shang, Wei Yan said to him: "Xiansi and Xianfu, the two sons, in order to win Hebei, almost brothers turned against each other, so that Cao Cao had a chance to take advantage of it!" In order to stabilize Hebei and continue to be descended from the Yuan family, His Royal Highness has sent people to Youzhou to ask for a return to Xian Yi Gongzi to temporarily take charge of Hebei's affairs. In order to prevent the two sons from attacking each other in the future, I also hope that the sons of Xianfu will hand over their military power! ”

The worry in his heart was immediately verified with Wei Yan's words, Yuan Shang's face suddenly turned pale, his lips moved, and his expression was a little annoyed, but in the end, he was still unable to speak.
