Chapter 40 Yiyang Wei Yan
Liu He sighed softly when he heard this: "Although I am reluctant to let Wenpin down, if I really surrender him, I'm afraid there will be an ending between me and Liu Jingzhou. I'm really unable to bear this at the moment!"
At this time, a systematic voice came from Liu He's mind: "Wenpin, military general, second-rate general, military power 82, intelligence 66, internal affairs 69, charm 72, attributes are not at the peak, peak state, military power 85, intelligence 66, internal affairs 69, charm 72, can be enthroned as Earth Zhouxing, currently in the state of being in a master, loyalty 95, favorability for the master 99, is it enthroned?"
"Favority? What is this?" Liu He asked the system strangely with consciousness.
"The so-called favorability means that although the other party cannot be loyal to you when he has a master, he will be in a chance of joining you once he leaves the old master. His favorability towards you is 99, which means that once he leaves the old master, there is a 99% chance of joining you. If the favorability reaches 2oo, even if he has a master, he will definitely join you without hesitation. As long as you enthrone him, his favorability towards you will immediately soar to 2oo... Hehe, someone asks you, do you want to enthrone now?"
"So that's the case, but forget it. This will make Zhongye embarrassed. What's more, I really can't surrender him now, otherwise Liu Biao will definitely turn against me. However, I believe that as long as I have the fate, Wen Zhongye will come to my account one day."
Looking at Wen Pin's departure back, Liu He said silently.
However, Liu He had no extra time to think about Wenpin. Now he had just captured Wancheng, so he wanted to settle the people's hearts first, and then take the opportunity to sweep the fallen leaves with the autumn wind to take over the entire Nanyang County.
On the one hand, Liu He posted an Anmin notice, announcing the exemption of this year's taxes. On the other hand, he sent his generals to occupy various places with the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. The southern army was dominated by Li Tong and Xian Yuyin as the deputy. He led the cavalry of the headquarters to seize Nieyang, Jiyang, Yuyang, Jinxian, Anzhong and Xinye and asked Li Tong to garrison in Xinye.
Although he knew that it would be difficult for Liu Biao to make up his mind to start a real war with him, necessary defenses were indispensable. Even when necessary, Liu He had to defeat Liu Biao's attack through strong defense and force Liu Biao to negotiate through force, so Liu He sent Li Tong, who was most suitable for one side, to attack this route.
On the West Road, Liao Hua was directly sent out, leading 5,000 soldiers to seize Liguo, Shunyang, Nanxiang, Danshui and other places, and aimed directly at Wuguan. This was a key link in his journey to Guanzhong. Naturally, there was no mistake. Therefore, Liu He sent Liao Hua, who was calm, to go there. He believed that with Liao Hua's strength, he would have absolutely certainty to enter Wuguan and control the key from the Central Plains to enter Guanzhong.
Liu He, the Eastern Army, sent Zhou Cang to the scene and led 5,000 soldiers to seize Pingshi, Fuyang and other places. In fact, these places are close to Huangzu's Jiangxia County. The reason why Liu He did this was mainly to have a strategic buffer between Jiangxia and his forces, and he did not really intend to occupy the place.
In fact, in order to achieve his goal, Liu He just needs to occupy the Western Front. The reason why he wanted to occupy the Southern Front was because of the place name Xinye.
In his memory of his previous life, a large number of top talents emerged in Xinye, such as Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Xu Shu and others. However, it is estimated that Brother Zhu was only about ten years old at this time, and he had not even moved to Jingzhou.
The fact was indeed as Liu He expected. After Wenpin gave up the defense of Nanyang County, the army of all the troops destroyed the fallen leaves like strong winds sweeping away the fallen leaves, and soon captured the counties along the way. The good news flew to Liu He's tent like snowflakes.
"Report, lord, the victory on the southern front, where our army passed, Nieyang, Jiyang, Yuyang, Jinxian, Anzhong and Xinye counties, all the officials and civilians of the counties were waiting for the wind to return and welcome them with a pot of wine."
"Report, lord, the victory on the Western Front, there was no offense wherever the army led by General Liao Hua passed. The people were happy and welcomed it. Now General Liao Hua has arrived outside Wu Pass and is attacking Wu Pass. There is only a group of bandits stationed there, without any discipline. It is estimated that they will be able to break through in a few days."
"Report, lord, the victory on the Eastern Front, the army led by General Zhou Cang was not bloody. All the officials of Pingshi, Fuyang and other cities all opened the city to surrender, but..."
"Hmm? It's just what?" Liu He didn't expect that there were three words "just" behind the sergeant, which made him feel a little stern, afraid that something bad would happen.
The soldier said, "But later, a big man with a red face came, with one or two thousand men, and went to Fuyang City every day to shout at General Zhou Cang, demanding to fight with General Zhou Cang alone. If General Zhou Cang wins, he would be willing to surrender. If General Zhou Cang is defeated, he will be the chief general in the city. General Zhou Cang needs to be his deputy. General Zhou Cang does not know the other party's background and dares not take action. Yesterday, he was scolded and lost face, so he decided to fight him in a decisive battle three days later..."
"What? A big man with a blushing face? Where did the big man with a blushing face come from?" Liu He was very surprised when he heard this and asked hurriedly.
"I don't know, I just listened to the sergeant in the city and said that the man was named Wei Yan, who was from Yiyang, but Yiyang was far away in Changsha, and the man's accent was obviously a local..."
"What did you say? He said his name was Wei Yan? Is this true?" Liu He's face turned red with excitement after hearing this, and his breathing became heavy.
"Yes, is Wei Yan very famous? In fact, the villain thinks that General Zhou Cang is really too cautious. Wen Pin, the number one general in Jingzhou, is not his opponent. What is a small Wei Yan..."
But the soldier immediately closed his mouth because he saw Liu He's expression changed.
"No, Wei Yan is a famous general of Shu Han. Although Zhou Cang has good force, he is at most a match with him. It is probably not that easy to defeat him! He even accidentally will be at risk of failure. Shu Zhi, go, come with me and go back and forth. Let's meet this Wei Yan together to see if he can receive him in the account."
After Liu He finished speaking, he ordered people to find Guo Jia and Liu Ye and ask Liu Ye to temporarily preside over the civil affairs of Wancheng, Pei Yuanshao temporarily maintained public order here, and under Chen Dao's protection, he took more than a hundred soldiers on horseback and left on Fuyang.
"Lord, is Wei Yan really that powerful? Even General Zhou Cang can't win steadily?" Chen Dao couldn't help but ask on the way.
"Haha, let me tell you this. Wei Yan's current combat power can be comparable to Zhou Cang, who was enthroned. This is a truly first-class general. If I get him and enthroned, I'm afraid he can fight Lu Bu." Liu He smiled, his face full of expectations.
