That was Wen Chou, a Hebei hero with the same reputation as Yan Liang. As a former colleague, Wang Zhao, how could he not know how strong his martial arts was.
Wang Zhao could despise Wen Chou as a traitor to the Yuan family, but he never dared to despise Wen Chou's martial arts. Wang Zhao knew clearly how much his own martial arts was compared to Wen Chou's.
Seeing Wen Chou blocking the road, Wang Zhao was frightened and hurriedly reined in his horse, not knowing what to do.
"Perhaps Wen Chou will persuade him to surrender to me. Now that the situation is over, it is okay for Yan Liangquan to surrender. After all, I am also a veteran of the Yuan family, and Yan Liang will probably use me again..."
Wang Zhao lost his fighting spirit and was already thinking about surrender.
But at this time, Wen Chou did not persuade him to surrender as he thought. Instead, without saying a word, Wen Chou attacked him with his army and killed him.
Wang Zhao, who woke up from his "revelation", was horrified. In the blink of an eye, Wen Chou had already charged in first.
"Quick, stop him for me -"
Wang Zhao screamed loudly. He himself did not dare to fight Wen Chou, but ordered his soldiers to become cannon fodder.
However, the Yuan troops around him were all people who recognized Wen Chou's reputation. Now that their morale was extremely low, they could not dare to fight again.
Seeing Wen Chou coming to kill him like a god general, the remaining two hundred soldiers were heartbroken and dispersed in the blink of an eye, each of them scurrying away.
After the soldiers were dispersed, Wang Zhao turned pale with shock. He didn't dare to follow Wen Chou and wanted to flee on horseback.
But, it's too late.
Wen Chou's horse was so fast that he hesitated for a moment. He was like a flash of lightning, and the big gun in his hand thrust out in a spiral with extremely powerful force.
When Wang Zhao raised his sword to block it, he was already too late.
Qiang~~
Amidst the sound of metal clanking, the sword in Wang Zhao's hand was knocked out, his eyes widened, and his chest had been pierced.
He passed by the wrong horse and before he could clearly see his movement, Wen Chou had already put away his gun.
Wang Zhao tremblingly lowered his head and glanced at the bloody hole in his chest. His body swayed, and he fell down under the horse, spurting out blood.
Wen Chou reined in his horse, glanced sideways at the bloody corpse behind him, and stood with his gun horizontally, the majestic killing force spreading like a wave.
The remaining Yuan troops were all frightened and knelt down with their heads in their hands, pleading for surrender.
…
The shouting to kill continued. When Yan Liang drove his horse slowly into Xudu City, his army was still encircling and suppressing the remaining Yuan army.
Passing through the doorway, this former imperial capital and the most prosperous city in the Central Plains came into view again.
This was Yan Liang's second time entering Xuchang City. He was not unfamiliar with this place, but at this time, his mood was far more exciting.
The last time he set foot in Xudu was when Cao Cao failed in the Battle of Guandu. In order to plunder Xudu's treasury, Yan Liang led his cavalry to take advantage of the chaos.
But this time, he entered the city with dignity and dignity, as a victor.
The most prosperous city in the Central Plains and the most important political center finally hoisted the flag of his surname Yan today.
At this moment, Yan Liang couldn't help but feel excited and proud.
After entering the city, Yan Liang led thousands of Tiger Guard soldiers without stopping and headed straight for Yuan Tan's Palace of Wei.
The atlas of counties and counties in the Zhongyuan states, the detailed information on passes and roads in various places, and other important things were all needed by Yan Liang to further develop the Central Plains.
When Yan Liang led his army to the palace, what he saw surprised him.
The door of the palace was already wide open. Everyone in the palace, old and young, knelt down at the door, as if they were respectfully welcoming Yan Liang's arrival.
The man kneeling at the front was none other than Xun Chen, the commander-in-chief of the Yuan family's garrison.
The number one debater of the Yuan family, a famous scholar from Yingchuan who was entrusted by Yuan Tan to his hometown and a young family, was holding Yuan Tan's seal high and kneeling humbly in front of Yan Liang.
Yan Liang rode forward, glanced at the kneeling Xun Chen, and sneered: "Who do I think I am? It turns out to be a famous scholar Xun. What do you mean?"
Xun Chen moved his knees and stepped forward, saying in a trembling voice: "The sinner Xun Chen, led by the young and old of the palace, and the seal of the King of Wei, surrendered to the general.
I see.
When Xu's capital city was defeated, all the generals of Yuan's army were killed, but the leader Xun Chen was missing. Yan Liangyuan thought that Xun Chen had escaped across the city or was hiding in a corner of the city.
What Yan Liang didn't expect was that, seeing the general trend, Xun Chen immediately ran back to Yuan Tan's house and took control of Yuan Tan's wife and children as a gift of surrender to him.
"If Mr. Xun deserves to be the number one debater of the Yuan family, I will be surprised by your quick reaction."
Yan Liang had a sneer on his face, and there was no trace of contempt in his tone.
Xun Chen looked a little embarrassed, but he said generously: "Chen Jin surrendered to the general in compliance with God's will. The general is a powerful figure in the world. I am willing to use this miserable body to contribute to the general's grand hegemony."
I hope the general will accept it."
"What a man who obeyed God's will. If I remember correctly, a few days ago, when I used Xin Ping's head to give you the ultimatum, why didn't you obey God's will? Today the city was destroyed, but you followed God's will. Xun Chen,
Do you really think that your sharp tongue can fool anyone?"
Yan Liang suddenly drank, and the cold murderous intent suddenly appeared in his tone.
Xun Chen's expression changed drastically, his body trembled, and he almost dropped the seal he was holding in his hand.
In shock, Xun Chen said anxiously: "General, please forgive me. Xun Chen returned late and was certainly at fault. However, Xun Chen was also controlled by Wang Zhao and others. He cannot act arbitrarily alone. I hope the general will learn from it."
For a shameless person like Xun Chen, Yan Liang originally didn't like him very much, but now that he has surrendered and Yan Liang doesn't use him seriously, he wouldn't even bother to kill him. His questioning just now was just to scare him.
It's just this guy.
Seeing Xun Chen so frightened, Yan Liang had seen enough of the excitement and said: "I originally wanted to punish you, but I hope you will repent in time and forgive you. Get up."
Xun Chen was granted amnesty and was extremely grateful to Yan Liang. He thanked Yan Liang again and again.
Yan Liang then ordered that Yuan Tan's seal and the maps of key passes of counties and counties in the Central Plains be collected. As for Xun Chen, he knew Yuan Tan thoroughly and was also familiar with the terrain and scenery of the Central Plains, so it would be useful to keep him here.
After Xun Chen suffered a calamity, he happily called Yan Liang "Lord".
Yan Liang strode into the Wei Prince's Mansion with his head held high, and looked around at the crowd of Yuan Tan's wives, concubines, and maids kneeling in front of him. After a brief count, he found that there were forty or fifty people in total.
"Are these Yuan Tan's women?" Yan Liang asked, raising his whip.
Xun Chen hurriedly said: "After Yuan Tan claimed to be the King of Wei, he plundered many women to enrich the palace. These are indeed his concubines."
Looking around at all the beauties, Yan Liang couldn't help but sigh, this Young Master Yuan really knows how to enjoy life.
He thought that Yan Liang liked women. But there were only three wives and concubines in the house, and the other unnamed women were only the aunt and nephew of the Cai family and the Fan family of Guiyang. They could be counted on one pair of hands.
But in Yuan Tanjin's house, there are forty or fifty beauties in this palace alone, and there are countless other beauties hidden in other courtyards.
Compared with Yuan Tan, Yan Liang is really ashamed of himself.
But it is a pity that these beauties that Yuan Tan carefully searched for have now become Yan Liang's trophies.
Now that Xudu was captured, Yan Liang was very proud of the spring breeze and was in a great mood. He selected a few good-looking ones and kept them to serve him in the evening.
Yan Liang then gave the remaining beauties to Wen Chou, Zhang He and other generals with a wave of his hand as additional rewards for their brave and bloody battles.
Wen Chou and other generals also had wives in Xiangyang, but as senior generals under Yan Liang's command, they had the right to enjoy the disguised spoils of war, women in the occupied territories, after conquering the city.
Moreover, all the beautiful women in Yuan Tan's house were extraordinary women. Yan Liang rewarded her so generously, and Wen Chou and other generals were naturally grateful.
After a day of fierce fighting, Yan Liang completely completed the control of Xu Ducheng. The remaining Yuan troops were either wiped out or surrendered to Yan Liang.
In the evening, the battle in Xudu ended. The four arsenals and other key points were all in the hands of Yan Jun.
On the day the war ended, Yan Liang took all the treasures in Xu Duku's mansion and rewarded the soldiers of the three armies.
These athletes of the Yan family who have survived many battles are all grateful to Yan Liang for receiving this generous reward, and the more than 50,000 soldiers are all happy and excited.
That night, Yan Liang checked into Yuan Tan's palace, which was the former prime minister's palace of Cao Cao. Here, he held a banquet to congratulate the civil and military officials on this rare victory.
After enjoying the wine and meat, Yan Liang enjoyed Yuan Tan's wives and concubines in Yuan Tan's room.
As for Wen Chou and other generals, they were all very happy. After the banquet, they went to enjoy Yuan Tan's concubine given to them by Yan Liang.
…
After a moment of joy, when I opened my eyes the next day, it was already dawn.
To be precise, Yan Liang was awakened by Zhou Cang's knock on the door.
Zhou Cang usually doesn't dare to disturb his leisurely mood, but he made an exception this morning. He thought it must be something important.
Although Yan Liang knew how to enjoy wine and sex, his mind was sober. Even though he took a quick shower, he still felt like he had not come out of the gentle land.
Zhou Cang, who was waiting outside, said that Tian Feng had been waiting in the lobby early in the morning. After urging him for a long time, Zhou Cang had no choice but to come and report.
Yan Liang would not blame him, so he straightened his clothes and went to the lobby.
"Mr. Yuan Hao, you drank too much of the celebration wine last night, why did you get up so early today?" Yan Liang asked with a smile.
Tian Feng frowned and pointed at the sun outside the door, "It is already three o'clock in the morning. My lord, you are greedy for beauty and old age and dare not complain. But now, Xu Dufang has more important things to do. My lord, that's it."
When you are greedy for pleasure, you have to say a few words."
Tian Feng's words and tone were quite serious. Among all the civil and military officials, he was the only one who dared to speak to Yan Liang like this.
Although Yan Liang was cruel by nature, his cruelty was only towards his enemies. Although Tian Feng's words sounded a bit harsh, he knew very well that this old man, who was known for his toughness, was all thinking for his own hegemony.
.
At that moment, he automatically filtered out the unsavory parts of Tian Feng's words and just smiled and said: "Sir, don't be so excited. I just slept for a while in Wenwen Village. I don't want to get up as soon as sir comes."
Okay? Sir, if you have any good advice or insights, I will be here to listen to you."
Tian Feng's stern face had just improved a little, and he pointed to the map and said: "I came here just to ask my lord to send troops to attack Runan quickly. If it's any later, I'm afraid it will fall into the hands of the Wu people."
Hearing this, Yan Liang couldn't help but frown slightly.
