General Zhang Ren is not only highly skilled in martial arts and extremely skilled with the Hundred Birds Phoenix Spear, but he is also a loyal and loyal man.

Liu Paopao entered Yizhou, and Zhang Ren was defeated and captured. Liu Paopao was angry that Zhang Ren ordered Pang Tong to be shot, causing Liu Paopao to lose the famous scholar Feng Chu.

Seeing that Zhang Ren refused to surrender, he ordered his beheading in public display.

It was a bit unfair to die.

Zhang Ren was the Commander-in-Chief under Liu Yan. If Li Yan had not surrendered to Liu Paopao, the war would not have ended so easily.

Zhang Xiu is known as the spear king of the North, and Zhang Ren is the spear king of Xichuan.

Of course, even if Zhang Ren surrenders to Liu Paopao, he may not be reused. After all, he is not Liu Paopao's direct descendant.

Even though Zhao Yun was such an awesome and top-notch general, he was still not reused under Liu Paopao and became a bodyguard all his life.

To put it bluntly, the Han Dynasty still valued scholars and family status, and it was too difficult to become famous if you were not from a good background.

Zhao Yun just had a bad background, unlike Second Master Guan, Third Master Zhang was Liu Paopao's brother, otherwise he wouldn't have been reused.

Zhao Yun was called the perfect military commander in later generations, which shows that his ability to lead troops was very good.

Unfortunately, I followed the wrong protagonist.

"Invite Yuan Shu's envoy Yuan Yin in and listen to what he has to say. It won't be too late for us to make a decision."

Liu Yandao.

"As you command!"

Guard Road.

After a while, the bodyguard came in with a soldier.

The person who came was Yuan Shu's cousin Yuan Yin, who was very good-looking.

It seems that the Yuan family members are all good-looking.

The result is that Yuan Shao attaches great importance to the appearance of his subordinates, and those who do not look very good are basically not reused.

Of course, people throughout the Han Dynasty still attached great importance to appearance, there is no doubt about this.

Like Pang Tong, he is just ugly in appearance, and it is useless no matter how talented he is. He has been to many places to apply for jobs, but he is basically not reused.

Even under Liu Paopao's banner, he was still not reused in the beginning and became a county official in a county.

"I've met Mr. Zhou Mu!"

Yuan Yin saluted Liu Yan.

"Mr. Yuan, if we form an alliance between Yizhou and Yuzhou, it seems that it will not bring us any benefits to Yizhou.

It is just for Yuan Jiuji to attack Qin Qi and contain the Xiakou army, and all the benefits will be obtained by Yuan Jiujiu, why should I sign an alliance agreement with you?"

Liu Yandao.

Hahaha!

Yuan Yin laughed loudly.

"Liu Zhoumu, you are not aware of the cruelty of Qin Qi in Xiakou, right? Liu Yao of Yangzhou just because he did not raise an army to attack Dong,

Qin Qi used this as an excuse to send troops and captured the entire Yangzhou territory in one fell swoop. Lord Zhoumu, do you think Qin Qi will let Yizhou go?

Now Qin Qi has to deal with my lord and Xuzhou Tao Qian's second army, so he has no time to send troops to attack Yizhou.

Once Qin Qi frees up her hands, how can she let Yizhou go? You know, Liu Zhoumu's territory,

Also surrounded by Qin Qi's army, the four counties in Jingnan and Jiaozhou were already monolithic and belonged to Qin Qi.

You can detour back to the rear of Yizhou from the South China Sea at any time. It is said that Qin Qi treated the Wuxi Valley natives well and even formed a mountain army specifically using the Wuxi Valley natives.

The purpose is to prepare for the attack on Yizhou. According to my understanding, Liu Zhoumu's rear is not considered stable.

Once Qin Qi is asked to send the Wuxi Valley natives to confuse the people of various tribes, does Liu Zhoumu think he can still live a stable life?"

Yuan Yin said.

Liu Yan was extremely surprised.

The rear area of ​​Yizhou is indeed unstable. Many indigenous tribes may make trouble at any time and send troops to harass the people of Yizhou.

"Master Liu, if you don't form an alliance with Yuan Gongli and Tao Qian now, do you want to fight Qin Qi alone?

Qin Qi is very powerful and must be weakened so that Qin Qi cannot continue to develop. If this opportunity is missed, no one in the world can limit Qin Qi's rise."

Yuan Yin added.

"Master Yuan, you are trying to scare us! Our roads in Yizhou are not smooth, and anyone who wants to invade will

It's not that easy. We only need to guard a few important passes. No matter how many enemies come, we will be able to keep the enemies out of Yizhou's jurisdiction."

Zhang Songdao.

Zhang Song mainly couldn't stand Yuan Yin's attitude, and all his words were just to scare people.

"My lord, I think Master Yuan is right. Once we are allowed to deal with Xiakou Qinqi independently, the situation will not be optimistic.

Even if we don't sign an alliance with Yuan Shu and Tao Qian, we will still be invaded by Qin Qi's army.

Instead of doing this, it is better to take this opportunity to sneak attack on the four counties in Jingnan, maybe there is a chance to capture them."

Zhao Wei added.

Liu Yan is confused!

To be honest, Liu Yan is quite in favor of forming an alliance.

After all, when Qin Qi sent troops to attack Yangzhou, he was ordered to tell Liu Yao to support his own troops, obey his orders but not his orders, and not send troops to challenge Dong.

He didn't send troops himself, so Qin Qi might really send troops to attack his Yizhou territory next.

"Liu Zhoumu, you should have heard of Xiakou Qinqi's navy! They have huge warships with excellent performance.

You are considered invincible. Once Qin Qi decides to attack Yizhou, can you stop the Xiakou Division's attack?"

Yuan Yin said.

Liu Yan of Yizhou did have a navy under his command, but Gan Ning, an outstanding naval warfare talent, ran away and now became the commander-in-chief of the Xiakou navy.

In addition, the Yizhou warships were smaller and could not fight against the Xiakou division.

"The Commander-in-Chief of Xiakou Division is called Gan Ning. It seems that he was once a minor official under Lord Zhou Mu, and he knows the situation in Yizhou very well.

Even if you have a pass, isn't there a trail? Can you guarantee that Gan Ning doesn't know about it and still takes precautions?"

Yuan Yin said.

Now Liu Yan was unsettled.

Of course Liu Yan knew Gan Ning.

It's just that Liu Yan looked down on Gan Ning, thinking that Gan Ning was a bandit who only knew how to fight and kill all day long.

Never in his wildest dreams would he have imagined that Qin Qi would take him under his wing and immediately give him a heavy responsibility. All of a sudden, Gan Ning would show outstanding results in water warfare.

Liu Yan's jaw dropped in shock.

All of a sudden, Liu Yan's officials became silent.

There are trails everywhere. No matter how big the mountain is or how steep the pass, you can always find one.

Zhang Song knows the map of Sichuan best. Zhang Song himself drew a map with the Yangchang Trail on it.

"General Zhang Ren, what are mountain soldiers?"

Liu Yandao.

"My lord, this is the first time I have heard of the mountain soldier general. However, from the literal meaning, it should be an army that is good at mountain warfare."

Zhang Rendao.

"Lord, if the Xiakou Army has mountain soldiers, our dangerous pass will really not be able to stop the Xiakou Army. In addition, those mountain soldiers are natives of the Wuxi tribe and are best at walking on mountain roads. We will be unable to guard against them! We must pay attention to them."

Wu Yidao.

Wu Yi and Wu Ziyuan were also officials who followed Liu Yan to Yizhou, and their status was also very high in Yizhou.

Wu Yichen was a native of Wu, and his father had a good relationship with Liu Yan. When Liu Yan entered Sichuan, his family followed Liu Yan to Yizhou.

After entering Yizhou, people who were good at fortune-telling said that Wu Yi's sister Wu would have a distinguished status in the future, and Liu Yan asked his son Liu Mao to marry Wu.

But what?

Liu Mao was sent as an envoy to Cao Ying, but died soon after, leaving Wu as a widow.

It seems that Liu Pao ran into Yizhou, married Wu as his wife, and became the famous Queen Mu.

From then on, Wu Yi's status rose, he was highly used within the Liu Paopao Group, held important positions, and prospered.

After some fighting, Yuan Yin persuaded Liu Yan and agreed to sign an alliance agreement with Yuan Shu and Tao Qian.
