Yizhou, Nanhuang.

The joints of Yan Yan's hands holding the battle report were a little white, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble.

It's not fear, it's anger.

He couldn't understand why he lost so quickly.

Especially the heirs of military strategists mentioned in the battle report, why didn't he have any impression at all.

"Is Deng Xian a fool? How dare people with unknown origins be re-employed? Did people like him grow up on hard work?"

If Deng Xian hadn't been killed already, Yan Yan would have had to kill him again.

Just plain stupid.

Why should you listen to those so-called heirs of military strategists?

They did not have an imperial edict from Emperor Shu, nor did they hold any official positions in Shu.

To put it bluntly, he is a white body, and his status is not even comparable to that of the soldiers at the city gate.

Deng Xian would actually listen to such a person.

But he didn't believe what he, the captain of Hanzhong, said.

If we hold on to the city and defend it, among other things, we can at least ensure that Qikou will not be attacked by Lu Bu within two or three months.

At that time, support will definitely arrive from Emperor Shu's side.

How could it be like now? In less than a month, not only Qikou was lost, but Dingjun Mountain was also lost.

Seeing that the Han army was about to attack Nan Miao, he, the captain of Hanzhong, had just learned about the news on the front line.

These people who are derelict in their duties should be dragged out and executed.

Anger was anger, but Yan Yan couldn't really drag all those people out and chop them down.

If that were the case, none of his men would be useful.

Could it be that he, an old man over sixty years old, went to the top of the city in person to throw stones?
"There are [-] defenders in Nan'an, and the food and grass resources are enough for half a year. Even if the opponent is Lu Bu, as long as I can guard him tightly, I will be able to stop him for a while. I hope Emperor Shu can provide support as soon as possible.

Otherwise, Hanzhong will not be able to defend itself. "

Yan Yan had no intention of keeping Lu Bu out of Hanzhong from the beginning, but he could keep it for a while.

As long as time is delayed long enough, anything can happen.

Maybe the imperial court will mobilize Lu Bu's army for other reasons, and then Shu will be able to relax.

Unfortunately, there is not that much time.

"Why should the old general be so worried? He is just Lu Bu. He can be easily eliminated."

An elegant voice suddenly sounded from outside the door, and then a young Confucian scholar wearing a jade crown walked in from the door.

"Who are you? Why did you break into the Captain's Mansion?"

Yan Yan looked at the Confucian scholar with a wary expression.

I found that the other party was very strange, at least I had not seen him in Nanyan City.

"I forgot to introduce myself. I am Lian Xiang, a descendant of the military dynasty. My ancestor is Lord Xinping."

Lian Xiang said with a smile on his face.

"It's true that you are a group of people who, under the guise of being descendants of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, are fooling around everywhere. First, Wang Jian's descendants are known as the Five Pillar Kings of the Military, and then there are Li Mu's descendants who are making clouds and rain.

Now there is another descendant of Lian Po.

What exactly do you want to do? "

Yan Yan does not trust other people so easily, especially now that the situation is critical, and he will not trust a stranger who appears suddenly.

Maybe the other party was sent by the imperial court to deliberately damage the defense of Shu.

"Without him, I just wanted to take revenge in my heart and avenge Emperor Wu of that year when he deposed all the families." Lian Xiang said very calmly, but his face was cold.

More than 300 years have passed, but descendants of hundreds of families will still not forget those painful years.

Given the slightest chance, they will show their fangs and regain everything they have lost.

"You have been hiding for more than 300 years, and now you suddenly appear. You really want to subvert the Han Dynasty, why don't you show up when the kings are active?

That seems to be the best time for you to express your ambitions! "

Yan Yan had a puzzled look on his face. Now that the imperial court was in a state of affairs, it would not help if these people showed up.

If you had that idea, why not do it earlier?

Not to mention aiding the kings, even a little mention of the Yellow Turban Army can slow down the court's recovery.

"At that time, the time has not yet arrived. Let's talk about nothing else but the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. Aren't their Yuan family also inherited Confucianism and it involves a dispute over Taoism? How can we believe it?

Speaking of other kings, most of their advisers and generals were also of Confucian origin.

Even if we go, what can we do? We will not be squeezed out in the end. "

Lian Xiang smiled helplessly and said.

Confucianism and the old Liu family have cooperated for so many years, and they have long been deeply rooted in the Han Dynasty.

The Bai family has to deal with not only the old Liu family, but more importantly, the Confucian group.

"Is it time now? I am also a Confucian enlightenment, learning the ways of Confucius and Mencius."

Yan Yan sneered. During the 300 years that Confucianism has dominated world culture, it has not stopped suppressing other doctrines.

Nowadays, those who can read in the world are basically Confucian students.

If Baijia jumps out at this time, nothing can be changed.

"Now, of course, the time has come. Emperor Shu's family is the only one left. If he wants to become bigger, he must get our support. Just relying on the counselors and generals under his command cannot save him from being crushed by the imperial court.

At that time, we can compete with Confucian students on the same stage. If the Confucians want to suppress us, we have to see if Emperor Shu will agree. "

Lian Xiang looked like he had everything under control.

It was only when they saw that Liu Zhang was desperate that they dared to jump out.

Only at this time will Liu Zhang trust them unreservedly and win a place in this Confucian-dominated world.

"Okay, okay, then what are your abilities?"

Yan Yan no longer mentioned any orthodox disputes. As long as he could help him defeat Lu Bu, it didn't matter which family the other party was.

"Since I can come here, I will naturally defend the city. As long as I guard Nanhu City, I will ensure that Lu Bu cannot make any money."

Lian Xiang said firmly.

Thinking back when his ancestor Lian Po was defending the city, even Bai Qi, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, was unable to break the city.

In the end, he had to use a plan to transfer Lian Po away, so that he could finally break through the city and break into the Zhao Kingdom.

"Then I want to test you. Lu Bu brought an army of 5 people. There are only [-] people in my city, and they are not elite soldiers. There are not many supplies to defend the city. The only thing that is sufficient is food and grass, which can only be enough." Only lasted for half a year.

Faced with this situation, how can we defend Nanhuang City? "

Yan Yan asked.

"5 people has far exceeded my expectations. If the city is defended well, the battle loss ratio should be 5:[-]. [-] people are enough to withstand hundreds of thousands of troops.

Moreover, the walls of Nanyan City are tall and the surrounding terrain is flat. There is no place for the opponent to hide if he wants to.

As long as the general does not leave the city, it is not difficult to kill Lu Bu forcefully. "

"What's the method? After talking for a long time, it seems that there is no way to defend the city. If I were just relying on guesswork, I would say that I can blow Lu Bu's head off!
What’s the point of such empty talk? "
