I am not a counselor, I am trying to survive in the late Han Dynasty

Chapter 281 Wei Yan’s surprise attack

Mr. Ai has already convinced Chen Qun.

Before, I just thought he looked like a drug girl, but now he looks more like a bala bala with a resentful look on his face?

"Zhang Wen, please calm down. With your small arms and legs, it will definitely not be your turn to work hard. I will be sad if you die." Mr. Ai quickly persuaded.

Chen Qun smiled:

"Don't worry, principal, we will definitely not disappoint the principal!"

After finishing speaking, Chen Qun puffed up his sleeves, turned around and left with a confident look on his face, leaving Mr. Ai messy in the wind.

Wow, don't mess with me, you turtles. What are you planning to do? If you die, it has nothing to do with me!

Wow, this ghost place is so dangerous, Leo bless you.

Chen Qun confidently came to Xu Shu's camp and informed Xu He of his intention. Xu He was very surprised to hear that Chen Qun actually had a way to defeat the enemy.

Listen to Kong Zhu, ah, it was Kong Rong who said that Chen Qun had some conflicts with Liu Bei's ideas before. As a Yingchuan native, Chen Qun was more sympathetic to Cao Cao, so Xu Shu also allowed him to follow Mr. Ai before, but he didn't follow Chen Qun carefully. Discuss specific operations.

However, Xu He also learned one thing from following Xu Shu these days - people change.

It would be a good thing for the entire army if people like Chen Qun could devote themselves to him.

He bowed to Chen Qun, respectfully asked him to wait, and hurried in to inform Xu Shu. When Xu Shu heard that Chen Qun had arrived on his own initiative, he also said that he would give him some advice. Xu Shu immediately went out without saying a word. Xu Huang was also followed out. And...Kong Rong.

Chen Qun looked at everyone and immediately bowed respectfully, calling him "General Xu" and "Kong Shangshu". Kong Rong quickly stepped forward to help him and said with a smile:

"Why are you so polite in the long article? It's quite interesting. Please get up quickly."

Chen Qun glanced at Xu Shu out of the corner of his eye. Seeing that Xu Shu had a calm expression and was not overly enthusiastic towards him, but also not hostile, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief, stood up with Kong Rong's help, and said with a smile. :

"When the army arrives in Nanyang, Qun Zheng wants to make some achievements. I don't know what the general has to do. Qun is willing to be the general's advance guard and seize the city first."

"Uh……"

Climb and seize the city first.

It was a bit difficult for Chen Qun, a person with small arms and legs, to climb first. Xu Shu coughed and said with a smile:

"If you have a long article, please come into the account and speak. If you have any strategies to defeat the enemy, we can discuss it in detail."

Mr. Ai was still wearing a mask and craned his neck to watch from a distance, trying to see what kind of medicine Chen Qun was selling in the gourd.

Chen Qun said confidently:

"No need, the army is here, the military situation is urgent, there can't be any delay -

General Xu, I ask for something. If I get this thing, I can make meritorious service to our army! "

"Oh, I don't know what it is?" Xu Shu said with a smile.

Chen Qun slowly cast his eyes towards Kong Rong and said with a smile:

"I want the scepter given by the Emperor himself!"

When Xu Shu and others led an army to rescue him, the emperor was very excited and wanted to make them all generals. He quickly gathered all the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty who had been killed by Li Jue, Guo Si and others.

But the embarrassing thing is that the emperor now has no copper seals on hand. Fortunately, there are still a few scepters. Finally, the emperor still has some weight when he goes on an expedition.

At this moment, the scepter was in Kong Rong's hand. Strictly speaking, Kong Rong could command the army and temporarily command the front line in place of the emperor's authority. Chen Qun actually reached out for this thing, which scared Kong Rong and subconsciously put the scepter in his arms.

Xu Shu said calmly:

"What is the purpose of the scepter in the long article?"

Chen Qun knew that Xu Shu was preparing to test himself, so he solemnly said:

"Although I don't know General Xu's plan, I also know that the key to our defeat of the city lies in Cai Mao.

The Cai family has been in Jingzhou for many years. It has a big tree and deep roots. It is also related by marriage to Zhang Taiwei's family.

Although my family has no friendship with the Cai family, we have some contacts with Taiwei Zhang. Taiwei Zhang died for the country and was truly a loyal and righteous man. Marquis Lu Wen killed, er, killed Dong Zhuo in order to avenge Taiwei.

I would like to pay homage to Cai Mao in a solemn manner! "

Rich families can quickly establish friendships through one or two people. This is the power of having many disciples and former officials.

The wife of the former Taiwei Zhang Wen was Cai Mao's aunt. Zhang Wen had a very good relationship with Xun Shuang, a native of Yingchuan. Later, he served as the prefect of Yingchuan and had a good relationship with everyone in the Chen family.

Later, Zhang Wen was beaten to death by Dong Zhuo in the street, and Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo to avenge Zhang Wen.

Now Chen Qun, on behalf of Lu Bu's son-in-law, comes to visit the family of the former old governor of Yingchuan and express his condolences. This is very reasonable.

If you hold the emperor's scepter again, there will be more to say.

Kong Rong looked reluctant, but at the same time there was a hint of surprise on his face - because this coincided with Xu Shu's previous strategy, but Xu Shu was planning to send Kong Rong at that time.

Kong Rong practiced his upright expression in front of the bronze mirror for a long time, and was about to have a good chat with Cai Mao about the road, but he did not expect that Chen Qun actually took the initiative to invite him.

Xu Shu thought for a moment, nodded and said:

"Okay, I'll let you go. Changwen, please be careful." Kong Rong had a good personal relationship with Chen Qun, so he could only hand over the scepter reluctantly:

"Zhang Wen, if... if there is any difficulty, just say it and I will go for you."

Chen Qun laughed, gently took the staff from Kong Rong's hand, stood in front of him, tapped it gently, and said solemnly:

"Don't worry, gentlemen, please wait here for good news."

Chen Qun was full of confidence. As a man from a wealthy family, he must have a way to solve this kind of thing, but he never expected that at this moment, neither he nor Xu Shu thought that an accident was coming quietly.

Not long after Chen Qun set out, under the scorching sun, a troop of soldiers and horses was slowly approaching.

They were all infantrymen, holding swords in their hands. Their expressions were slightly panicked, but their gaits were extremely steady and they looked like fierce generals.

The leader's name is Wei Yan, a commander under the command of Jingzhou fierce general Wen Pin. He is only twenty-two years old this year. His face is as heavy as a jujube, very powerful, and there are scars all over his face and nose. His hair was a little gray, and he looked like he was already in his forties. He was growing up in a hurry.

He was born in Yiyang, a poor and miserable rural area. Wei Yan's family conditions were barely good enough in the village, and they could support him in studying for two days. However, because of studying for two days, he went to Xiangyang, Jiangling and other prosperous places several times. Wei Yan is a man who is extremely eager to gain respect and status.

When Cai Mao and Wenpin were talking about how to deal with Xu Shu's army, they would definitely be happy if he complimented them casually. However, Wei Yan was eager to show off and couldn't wait to express his understanding of the battle situation, which immediately angered Cai Mao and Wenpin. Extremely dissatisfied, Cai Mao even forced him to go into battle and kill Xu Shu.

Although Wenpin later asked him to kneel for Cai Mao for a day to avoid death, Wei Yan refused to accept it.

If he is a coward, he will be looked down upon for the rest of his life. He is too afraid of poverty and really wants to make progress.

What I am today was achieved with swords and spears, not with your clear talk. Look at me, isn’t that what Xu Shu is like?

The two hundred warriors under my command are all strong soldiers who have been fighting with me for a long time. As long as I use my tactics cleverly, Xu Shu can be easily captured.

So, Wei Yan ignored Cai Mao's angry words and started to approach Xu Shu's army. He also thought that if I killed Xu Shu, what would Cai Mao say?

Wei Yan is very talented and courageous.

But the biggest difference between him and some brainless people is that although he is easy to be impulsive, he can think about what to do after being impulsive.

In order to successfully raid Xu Shu, he specially sent his men to investigate the surrounding areas. He especially asked them to look for the bandits dispersed by Xu Shu around Wuguan and must find out some useful information for Xu Shu's army.

Soon, some terrible news came from his subordinates.

"Brother, we can't fight!" One of his men said with a grimace, "I heard that Xu Shu has a monster under his command. The man is nine feet tall, has no hair, and holds two halberds. He fights all the enemies along the way.

Yes, I know those bandits must be talking nonsense and they are no better than me, but we also heard that Li Jue was kicked to death by this monster.

If there were one or two thousand people, we wouldn't be afraid of him, but there are too few of us. If... I'm afraid that except for the eldest brother, no one would be the enemy of that person together. "

Wei Yan frowned and secretly cursed himself for being so unlucky.

There are only more than 200 of them. If they encounter such fierce generals rushing into battle, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with them.

At this moment, Wei Yan missed an old man in his fifties he met in Xiangyang very much.

The old man once taught Wei Yan several martial arts skills, which made Wei Yan's martial arts improve by leaps and bounds. However, the old man said that his martial arts skills were all about fighting in battle formations. The more he fought, the better he could understand them. No matter how hard he practiced, it was difficult to achieve a breakthrough.

At the age of fifty, the old man's sword skills were already superb. Wei Yan was young, but it was difficult for him to reach this level immediately.

It seems... we can only use some means.

The corners of Wei Yan's mouth raised slightly, revealing a sneer.

"It's easy to say - these people must be short of military rations when they come from afar. When I give them the general rations, I will tell them to surrender. This will definitely make these thieves relax their vigilance.

Then...well, you go and steal the man's halberds, and we attack at night. He has no weapons at hand, so we can only escape for a while. We go around and set fire to Xu Shu's army camp.

Xu Shu's army suffered heavy losses and could only retreat in panic. When the time comes, if we continue to pursue calmly, we will surely win a complete victory! "

All the sergeants under his command changed their expressions and said in horror:

"Brother, can this be done?"

"Hey, why not?" Wei Yan's face was full of defiance, "Xu Shu is also a human being, there must be unforeseen circumstances.

How will they notice if we take food and fodder to join us? What Cai Mao did to humiliate me before cannot be faked. If you ask everyone, they will definitely know it!

If Xu Shu refuses to take us in, how can anyone dare to join them in the future? "

Everyone nodded in unison and said:

"What the elder brother said is absolutely true. We are willing to fight with the elder brother and never retreat."

Wei Yan snorted coldly and thought carefully about the situation before confirming that there was nothing wrong.

Xu Shu, Xu Shu, I have no enmity with you, but I'm sorry.

I've heard for a long time that you are very resourceful. I want to see how you defeat my trick!
