Chapter 85 Liu Yan's Depression

In Jicheng, teams of young and strong armed with bamboo spears rushed towards the city wall of Jicheng under the cover of arrow rain all over the sky. The surrounding wood, planks, and wooden pillars were smashed down, and from time to time, a few sharpened giant wooden sticks shot out from the city wall and pierced into the crowd, leaving a big hole through the chests and abdomens of several people.

Under the banner outside the city, many Confucian scholars gathered beside Liu Yan. Wei You was the most unremarkable one.

Wei You knew that they would have to wait until the yellow scarves in the city ran out of food, and they would consume the two thousand young men left by Liu Bei to the Jian family. If it is exhausted, Liu Bei, the eunuch's meritorious service, can be divided up by them.Maybe there is also his own credit for this?Wei You sneered at himself.

"Report to Lord Inspector, Liu Sima has led his headquarters to three miles outside Jicheng, and has been specially ordered to report to Lord Inspector and ask for instructions on where to set up the camp."

A soldier of white scorpion came to Liu Yan's side and shouted loudly.

"Liu Ahu is back! So soon?"

"You didn't come back without seeing the Huns, did you?"

"Maybe he was beaten to pieces by the Huns and fled back in embarrassment! I also ask Lord Junlang to punish him for the crime of losing soldiers and generals."

"That's right, you should be beheaded to show the public, as an example to others."

"Exactly, exactly."

"..."

Every member of the Youzhou gentry present has a good impression of Liu Bei, and we, the eunuchs, should share our urgency, not to mention that this eunuch has made great contributions to him-this is the current state of mind of the Youzhou gentry.

Liu Yan was very satisfied with the reaction of the gentry, stroked his beard and said, "Let Sima Liu come to see me."

"promise!"

Seeing the retreat of the Bai Wu soldiers, Liu Yan calculated in his mind that as soon as Liu Bei came, the nobles in Youzhou would coax him and order him to be killed, so that he would be responsible for the wealth of Liu's Wubao in Luchengting and the pacification of the Yellow Turban in Youzhou. !
Dozens of horses came here, Liu Yan not only gave Pang Xi a wink, Pang Xi knowingly gathered more than a thousand yellow scarf thieves that he had surrendered, quietly gathered beside the big banner, and as long as Liu Yan made a gesture, he would chop Liu Xuande himself. For the pate.

Dozens of riders were stopped by Liu Yan personally a hundred steps away from the big banner. Liu Bei got off his horse and the entourage around him was blocked. However, the momentum of Cai Yong, Guo Yi, Gu Yong, Guan Zhanglu and others in front of Liu Bei made Liu Yan Do not dare to act rashly.

Liu Yan was surprised when he saw that it wasn't Liu Bei who came first, and when he saw Cai Yong approaching from a distance, the expression of horror appeared on his face, and then he adjusted and strode forward: "Brother Bo Jie, please forgive me for not coming far away. crime."

Liu Yan went forward to greet him personally, and all the gentry of Youzhou moved forward. They were young when Cai Yong became famous all over the world. Cai Yong could be called their idol: "I have seen Duke Bojie."

Cai Yong flicked his sleeves and gathered them together like a proud crane to return the salute: "Thank you for your welcome, gentlemen, Yong is ashamed to accept it."

The arrival of Cai Yong turned all Liu Yan's arrangements into flowing water, and suppressed the resentment of the nobles in Youzhou. Without him, although Cai Yong was not a party member, his influence among the nobles was unparalleled.In the past, there were Li Ying, Du Gu, imperial students Guo Tai and Jia Biao, and Cai Yong and Lu Zhi from the Eastern Han Dynasty. Now Yuan Shao and He Yong are all famous at home.

That night, Liu Yan hosted a banquet in the big tent. Liu Yan was at the head of the banquet, Cai Yong was on the left, and Qi Zhou from Youzhou Biejia Guangyang was on the right.

When Cai Yong talked about Liu Bei's defeat of the Xiongnu, all the gentry in Youzhou in the tent had strange expressions on their faces. Liu Yan sat at the head seat, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

In the early morning of the next day, Liu Yan gathered in the big tent, the school captain Zou Jing, the captain Pang Xi, Sima Liu Bei, and all the tribal chiefs of the Youzhou gentry.

Liu Yan looked around at the generals and said: "The remnants of the Yellow Turbans have been besieged for several days and have exhausted their food and energy. Only the thief chieftain Song Cheng holds the governor's seal and the Guangyang prefect's seal is rampant, but his momentum has slightly broken the city. Today, who will be the first to ascend?" It will be the first achievement!"

"promise!"

All the generals have promised!

Liu Bei was divided into Xicheng, which was originally attacked by the gentry clans such as Tian Kai and Jian in Zhuojun. Liu Yan assigned Liu Bei to this city wall, and I am afraid that there are many elements to sow discord.

"Congratulations to Brother Xuande for building another Qixun." Tian Kai's cousin Tian Ding said teasingly.

Liu Bei said without changing his face: "They all serve the imperial court, there is no such thing as extraordinary merit?"

Tian Ding snorted coldly and was extremely dissatisfied, but was about to explode but was stopped by Tian Kai: "Wen Zong must not be rude, Xuande don't blame Wen Zong for this temper, you see how the West City is broken."

Tian Kai knew that Liu Bei's subordinates would surely increase in combat power after the Huns' First World War. It was far from being comparable to his own civilians. Instead of offending Liu Bei, who was armed with fierce soldiers, he might as well cooperate with Liu Bei to break through the city first. Maybe he can gain some military exploits?
Zhang Fei snorted coldly: "What's there to worry about? The Yellow Turban Bandits are defeated. As long as the elder brother lets someone lead his headquarters to attack the city, he will definitely go to Jicheng within a quarter of an hour."

Tian Ding just wanted to get angry at Zhang Fei's arrogant tone, and Lu Bu also nodded: "A bunch of mere farmers are nothing to worry about!"

Guan Yu also agreed, and Liu Bei nodded: "Since this is the case, you will lead your headquarters to attack the city. Brother Xianhe and Brother Wen Zong will cooperate with each other with bows and arrows."

Jian Yong was originally ashamed of Jian's indifference to Liu Bei's oppression by the nobles in Youzhou, but now he fully agreed to Liu Bei's order.Tian Ding snorted coldly and thought to himself: It would be better not to let someone go. No siege equipment can make a siege. I really think that I am invincible in the world!When you meet a bloody head, you will know that siege is not a field battle!

"Kill! The meritorious deeds are in the present. The first to break the city will be rewarded with ten catties, a thousand stones of corn, and a hundred acres of land."

Countless Youzhou gentry tribe chiefs offered their own rewards one after another, arousing the blood of young and strong people everywhere. In this troubled world, what is more attractive than food and land.

In the west city, two thousand cavalry dismounted and divided into four teams. Under the leadership of Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Han Dang, they walked towards the city wall in silence. Xu Huang, Liu Zhiran, Liu Ling, and Gao Shun were the lieutenants of the four.

Tanlang, Qinglong, and Heijiao slowly appeared in the air as they approached the city wall. A ladder was erected at the top of the city. Tanlang, Qinglong, and Heijiao climbed up the city wall along the ladder, and violently moved towards the barrier at the top of the city. When it crashed, the three fierce beasts knocked all the hurricanes that fell down from the top of the wall into the air.

On the ground, Han Dang, Gao Shun and others pushed several wooden carts and carried a giant log towards the city gate. The huge bumper log could not hug the two of them, and every time it hit the city gate, it made a loud noise. The gray-headed women and children in the city could not stand still and almost fell down.

Under the big banner, Liu Yan watched the movement in Xicheng, the hand stroking his beard suddenly froze, and his sharp eyes radiated sharp arrows towards Liu Bei. Why can't such a strong man be used by me?Can't get rid of it again and again?

All the Youzhou gentry looked at Xicheng in surprise, and murmured to themselves: Liu Ahu is so brave, do you really want to push him into the eunuch party?If he doesn't push, the credit is all his!

The gentry in Youzhou had complicated emotions, Cai Yong was full of smiles, and he was planning to deal with the affairs of Youzhou in his heart. He brought Liu Bei to vote for Lu Zhi, and if he built a few more strange honors, Liu Bei's foundation would be solid.
