The tiger-bear spearman with a scarred face was none other than Wen Chou, the Hebei general who was as famous as Yan Liang.
Wen Chou in the novel once defeated Gongsun Zan in ten rounds at the Battle of Jieqiao, and fought with Zhao Yun, who had just debuted, for sixty rounds with no outcome.
Zhao Yun's martial arts was superb, and Wen Chou was able to fight equally with him. This shows his superior martial arts.
In the Battle of White Horse in the novel, Wen Chou defeated the combined forces of Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, but when he retreated, he was attacked and killed by Guan Yu from behind with his horse speed.
Yan Liang suddenly felt emotional. If it hadn't been for his time travel, this body of mine would have died under Guan Yu's sword long ago. Wen Chou, who was showing off his majesty at the foot of the hillside, would have become a ghost under the sword. How could the two of them be here?
meet.
At the foot of the hillside, Gan Ning was forced by Wen Chou to mess up his halberd skills, and his appearance was revealed.
Yan Liang knew very well that Wen Chou was strong in martial arts and Gan Ning was no match for him. Fearing that his new love would be lost, Yan Liang slapped his horse and drew his sword, leading the Shenxing Cavalry to roar down the hillside.
A thousand iron cavalry swooped down like a mud flow and crashed into the battle group.
Yuan Jun, who had regained his disadvantage, was unexpectedly surprised by Yan Liang's second line of ambushes. He was suddenly rushed and immediately fell into defeat again.
Yan Liang used his sword to cut a bloody path, and the big black horse's hooves were like the wind, heading straight for Gan Ning.
"Xing Ba, step back, I will deal with this person."
Amidst the violent shouting, Yan Liang stabbed him to death.
Gan Ning was being forced by Wen Chou and his moves were messy, and he was about to make a mistake. At the critical moment, he saw Yan Liang riding his horse to save him.
The mighty Wen Chou was about to pursue him again, but Yan Liang was already standing in front of him, leaping on his horse and crossing his sword.
When Wen Chou saw Yan Liang, his ferocious face immediately changed, and a complex expression flashed across his beady eyes.
"General, let's work together to kill this guy." Gan Ning gasped and shouted.
However, Yan Liang did not look back, and only ordered: "Leave this person to me, you don't have to interfere, just go and command the troops to fight."
Gan Ning only said that Yan Liang was determined to win and did not need help from others, but he did not ask any more questions, turned his horse and fought back to the rebel army.
Yan Liang reined up his horse and stood up, cupped his hands slightly and said, "Ziqin, it's been a long time."
Wen Chou and Yan Liang were both known as Generals of Hebei Province. They had a very good personal relationship and were said to be like brothers.
When Yan Liang traveled through time, the Battle of Guandu had already begun, and he had not had much contact with Wen Chou. However, after inheriting the memory of the original deity, he also knew that Wen Chou had a special relationship with him.
He knew very well that Wen Chou's martial arts skills were not inferior to his own. If he were to fight life and death today, both sides would be hurt. In this case, it would be better to reminisce about the past. If he could resolve this death with words, it might be a try.
Wen Chou stared at himself, an angry look gradually appearing on his brows.
After a moment of silence, Wen Chou said in a deep voice: "Mr. Yuan treats you well, why do you betray Mr. Yuan?"
"Not thin? Humph."
Yan Liang sneered, "In the battle of White Horse, I helped Yuan Benchu win, but he listened to Guo Tu's slanderous words and almost tried to incriminate me. But Zi Qin, tell me, is this what you said?"
Wen Chou was speechless for a moment.
Yan Liang went on to say: "I heard about the battle of Guandu. Brother Ziqin took the lead and was the first to lead the army to break through Cao's camp. Such a remarkable achievement is really gratifying and congratulatory."
A trace of suspicion flashed across Wen Chou's eyes. He was a little confused. He didn't know why Yan Liang suddenly complimented him again.
However, Yan Liang sighed again.
"Back then, Ju Yi captured Hebei for Yuan Shao and also made extraordinary achievements. In the end, he was jealous of Yuan Shao and ended up in a situation where his achievements were overshadowed by his death and his reputation was ruined. Ziqin, you worked so hard to make contributions to the Yuan family. Is it true?
Have you ever worried that one day you will follow in Ju Yi’s footsteps?”
Yan Liang finally revealed his true intention, which was to drive a wedge between Wen Chou and Yuan Shao.
These words pierced Wen Chou's heart like a needle, causing him to tremble all over.
For a moment, Wen Chou's eyes flashed with a hint of fear.
Obviously, Yan Liang's words struck a chord with him.
Seeing that Wen Chou was touched, Yan Liang took advantage of the situation and said: "Yuan Shao is generous on the outside and jealous on the inside. All his subordinates are vying for position. The various factions are fighting endlessly. Even if they win today, they will fall apart sooner or later. Brother, instead of risking your life for Yuan Shao, why don't you abandon the secret and surrender to the light and come here?"
As a brother, you and I will work together to create a great cause."
Yan Liang lost no time in extending an olive branch.
Wen Chou was a powerful general in the world, and he regarded himself as his brother throughout his life. If he could get the help of such a close and fierce general, it would be even more powerful for Yan Liang, who was thirsty for talents.
Now that such an opportunity is rare, how can Yan Liang not take the opportunity to say Wen Chou surrenders?
Wen Chou's expression changed, and he glared and said: "Mr. Yuan treats me well, how could I betray him so easily? Brother, I advise you to find your way back and come with me to plead guilty to Gong Yuan."
Wen Chou was not moved, but the words "brother" showed that he no longer had any hostility towards Yan Liang.
This change in attitude made Yan Liang realize that Wen Chou was actually shaken in his heart, but he just did not dare to make a decision due to worries.
At the moment, Yuan Shao has not neglected Wen Chou after all. Yan Liang also knows that a few words cannot convince Wen Chou, but he is not in a hurry today.
He then laughed and said, "My brother has made up his mind. Even if the road ahead is dangerous, he will continue on without hesitation. There is no reason to give up halfway."
Seeing Yan Liang's determination, Wen Chou didn't know how to persuade him, so he just shook his head and sighed.
Behind him, the melee was coming to an end. Yuan Jun's infantry and cavalry were in retreat. The outcome of this battle was determined.
Yan Liang was afraid that Yuan Shao's army would come again and did not want to stay here, so he handed over his hands and said: "Brother, if you have thought clearly, you can come to Xinye and join me as a brother at any time. I'll say goodbye today. Brother, you can take care of yourself."
After saying that, Yan Liang turned his horse around, looked south and rode away.
Wen Chou had no intention of fighting Yan Liang in the first place, but now his army was routed, defeat was certain, and he had no intention of fighting at all.
Wen Chou, who was standing still on horseback with his gun in tow, could only watch Yan Liang slowly leave.
"My brother's courage and words are completely different from before. I haven't seen him for several months, but he seems to have a heroic appearance. It's really strange..."
Wen Chou felt suspicious and emotional for a long time. Seeing that Yan Liang's troops were far away, he had no choice but to rein in his defeated troops and retreat towards Xudu.
After traveling no more than three miles, Wen Chou met up with Yuan Tan.
Although Yuan Tan was rescued by Wen Chou, he was still frightened and ran for several miles before stopping.
He originally thought that with Wen Chou's bravery, he would be able to save the situation. Just when he was about to return to the army to make a success, he didn't expect that Wen Chou would come back from defeat.
When the two met, Yuan Tan asked why the army was defeated.
Wen Chou only said that Yan Liang had another ambush force coming out, and that he was unable to save the defeat, so he had no choice but to withdraw his troops.
As for his conversation with Yan Liang on his own, Wen Chou was certainly not stupid enough to tell him about it to arouse Yuan Tan's suspicion.
It's just that Wen Chou was a rude warrior who was not good at words. His speech was slightly awkward when he spoke, and it sounded like he was trying to hide something.
Yuan Tan felt suspicious when he heard this, and asked coldly: "General Wen, are you defeated with all your strength, or are you caring about your personal relationship and deliberately letting Yan Liang escape?"
Hearing this, Wen Chou Tie Zhengzheng's expression suddenly changed.
"I, Wen Chou, have always kept a clear distinction between public and private matters, why would you, the eldest son, say such a thing!" Wen Chou said with a livid face.
Wen Chou showed such an angry look, Yuan Tan was slightly frightened, and a smile emerged from the corner of his mouth.
"I just heard that General Wen and Yan Liang were brothers. I was afraid that General Wen would do something wrong because of his righteousness, so I kindly reminded General Wen why he should be angry." Yuan Tan said with a smile.
Yuan Tan's words were obviously hidden in his smile, and his smiling face made Wen Chou feel extremely uncomfortable.
Yuan Tan was supported by the Ruying scholar faction, while Wen Chou belonged to the Hebei scholar faction, so it was natural for Yuan Tan to be suspicious of him.
It's just that Wen Chou had just saved Yuan Tan's life, but Yuan Tan ignored the rescue effort and suddenly became suspicious again, which made Wen Chou extremely unhappy.
At that moment, Wen Chou didn't give him a good look, and just said coldly: "If you don't believe me, eldest son, just go and tell the lord what you have to say. In short, Wen Chou has not done anything wrong to the lord."
After that, Wen Chou ignored Yuan Tan and led his troops away.
Looking at Wen Chou walking away, Yuan Tan raised a strange sneer at the corner of his mouth.
