Chapter 47 Night Attack
Under Hanshou City, the Wuxi barbarians have been attacking for half a month.

The soldiers on both sides felt very tired, but no one could relax.

It was late at night again. Shamoko nodded slowly while looking at the still strong city wall, and waved his hand to let the tribesmen evacuate.

Liu Xian, who was on the city wall, couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, "I persisted for another day."

After sighing, he looked at the nephew with a plain face again, and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's okay. You're still young. It doesn't matter if you haven't counted."

"Uncle, do you think the boy made a mistake in his calculation?" Zhou Bujie's expression suddenly became strange, "Then uncle may have misunderstood, but there is something that the boy didn't want to understand.

Then what methods will the reinforcements who come here use to deal with these Wuling barbarians? If they just repel them, I'm afraid there will be some trouble.
It's just that the reason why these Wuxi barbarians are difficult to deal with is not because of their bravery, but because the Wuling waters extend in all directions. It would be really difficult for them to hold on. "

"..." Liu Xian looked at the serious nephew speechlessly, "Yuanzhi..."

"What's the matter, uncle?"

"You..." Liu Xian wanted to say a few words to his nephew, but he thought of all the things he had done before and finally changed the words that came to his lips.

"Can you tell me now who these so-called reinforcements are?"

"Uncle didn't see it?"

"..." Liu Xian wanted to ask this nephew what he should see?
"Hey..." Seeing Liu Xian's expression, Zhou Buyi stopped hiding.

"Gong Xuande, who was just entrusted by Liu Jingzhou to come to Jingnan, is the reinforcement this time."

"Liu Bei?" At this time, Liu Xian couldn't help but frown and shook his head slightly, "I'm afraid you just... Then Liu Bei is currently at war with Taishi Ci, how can he care about my affairs in Wuling County?

Besides, the situation we are facing now is all because of Liu Xuande's deployment of troops, horses and food. "

"Then uncle thinks that it is a good opportunity for Duke Xuande to fight against Tai Shici at this time?"

"This... of course not!" Although Liu Xian is not good at military affairs, he is not a fool. "At this time, Liu Xuande is not on a stable footing. Although Liu Pan and Huang Zhong did not accept the order because of the eldest son's face.

But they may not really have a good impression. If they win at this time, it will be fine. If they don't win, then this little friendship may not be preserved.

As for whether he can... Haha, although I am in Jingzhou, I have some respect for Taishi Ziyi.

Even though he is not aggressive enough, his defense is more than enough. "

"Well, uncle, you can understand things, so how can that Duke Xuande, who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, not understand." Zhou Buyi's calm words made Liu Xian fall into a daze again.

But what he said next made Liu Xian frown even deeper.

"If my guess is correct, as soon as tomorrow, or as slowly as three to five days, a troop of soldiers and horses will appear directly at those Wuxi barbarians."

Maybe God couldn't stand Zhou Buyi's talent anymore, just as he finished speaking, those eyes that had been calm all of a sudden narrowed.

The whole person also tilted forward, and even raised his feet because of his height.

"What?" Liu Xian just wanted to ask Zhou Buyi what was going on, when he followed his gaze and saw a very "horrifying" scene, and at the same time, the shouts of killing also broke out.

Under the moonlight, a group of soldiers and horses appeared behind the Wuxi barbarians and suddenly launched an attack on them.

It was dark at night, and no one knew how many people came, and Samoko, the nominal leader of the Wuxi barbarians, did not expect that a troop of soldiers would appear behind him at this time.

This caused all his defenses to be in the front camp, allowing Wei Yan to charge in easily, and the leader of Lou Zhongman was directly beheaded by Wei Yan.

"The barbarians are so ignorant that they don't even have a big flag!"

Wei Yan, who was leading his troops to charge continuously, suddenly reined in his horse. Looking at the messy barbarian camp, he couldn't help but have a gloomy look on his face.

Wei Yan was very unhappy that he could not find the opponent's commander-in-chief in a successful night attack.

"Continue to charge, set fires everywhere, and break up all these barbarians, hurry up!"

"Attack, keep attacking!"

The flames gradually spread, and the sleeping barbarians were frightened by this sudden change. They began to panic and flee.

Several barbarian leaders wanted to gather their tribesmen to fight back, but the sharp-eyed Wei Yan discovered them in advance and led his troops to rush over and return.

Once. Twice. After the counterattacks were defeated, the barbarians may not have given up their resistance, but the gate of Hanshou County was directly opened.

"Kill!" Liu Xian, who put on his armor, pulled out his sword from his waist and roared towards the barbarian camp.

Thousands of Hanshou County defenders rushed over and vented the grievances and anger they had received during this period. "So brave, these people are so brave!" Shamoko looked at the army being attacked from both sides and knew that there was no possibility of turning defeat into victory. After scolding, he immediately started to evacuate with his close relatives.

"Everyone withdraw!"

"Everyone returns to the tribe temporarily"

After Sha Moke left these two orders, it didn't matter how many people could hear them, and then he led the people and withdrew directly.

Even when he was running away, he passed by Wei Yan not far away, and he couldn't help but stop for a moment to look at Wei Yan, as if he wanted to imprint this face into his mind.

It's a pity that Wei Yan didn't recognize what Samoko looked like. Under the interplay of darkness and firelight, Wei Yan only saw the Wuxi barbarians fleeing away, and he didn't care about these people.

"This general!" Just when the battle was about to end, Liu Xian finally came to Wei Yan. Looking at this general he had never seen before, Liu Xian felt that he should take the initiative.

"I, Liu Xian, the prefect of Wuling, may I ask the general who is his general?"

"Are you the Governor of Wuling?" Wei Yan looked at Liu Xian the same way. Zhuge Liang's words of exhortations and instructions had long been forgotten by him. At this time, Wei Yan couldn't help but want to sneer when he looked at Liu Xian.

"The huge Wuling County...

"It turns out that Liu Fujun managed him in an orderly manner, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, which is a testament to Liu Fujun's ability!

The boy Xi Hong has long heard about Liu Fujun's reputation for being upright and upright. He especially heard about the incident when Liu Fujun angrily criticized Cao Mengde on the streets of Xudu.

It really makes the kid admire him!
General Wei, the enemy has not yet completely retreated at this time, so I ask General Wei to focus on the war. "

Xi Hong, who had followed Wei Yan all the way, finally stopped Wei Yan before he opened his mouth, but someone didn't seem to appreciate it.

"I'm talking to this general, how can you be so impolite?

Mr. Xi Hong has heard of you, and heard that you are a famous young talent in the Xi family over the years. Looking at it today, it is really ridiculous.

The Xi family’s century-old tradition of rituals and music has really been wiped out by you! "

When "I" heard Liu Xian's evaluation and reprimand to himself, Xi Hong couldn't help trembling in his heart.

As for Wei Yan, he was too lazy to waste time with someone he looked down upon, so he turned his horse's head and led his troops in a certain direction to continue charging towards him.

"Xi Hong, look at it. General Wei is so angry with you that he is really insulting the family!" After Liu Xian finished speaking, he snorted coldly, turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves.

"." At this moment, Xi Hong felt that his heart stopped for a moment.

  Also explain the issue of Wei Yan’s joining time.

  There is indeed no clear record in the history books when Wei Yan joined Liu Bei. There was a previous theory that Liu Bei was the shepherd of Yuzhou, which was when he was in Xiaopei.

  There is also a saying that Liu Bei was in the early stage of Xinye. At that time, he recruited heroes, and then many people defected, and finally he was jealous of Liu Biao.
  I have no opinion on these two. As for why, it depends on his status behind him.

  Because Liu Bei had no fixed residence in the early stages of his life, the records of his early generals in various historical books are very imperfect.

  The most serious ones are Zhao Yun and Wei Yan. Zhao Yun is favored by Pei Songzhi anyway, and Wei Yan is very embarrassed.

  But it's not completely untraceable.

  At that time, Wei Yan, Huang Zhong and others followed Liu Bei into Shu.

  Then their arrangement is as follows.

  Huang Zhong and his deputy Zhuo Ying led troops from Jiameng Pass to Chengdu. Later, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan each led their own divisions to attack Guanghan County and other places.

  After that, he had many military exploits and was promoted to General Yamen.

  From this point of view, when he first entered Shuzhong, Huang Zhong was the head of the generals, after all, his position was there.

  The veteran Zhonglang General plus the acting General Pi, this status may be higher than that of Guan Zhang.

  But Wei Yan did not have this status.

  However, Wei Yan was quickly promoted to General Yamen after attacking Guanghan, which means that either he was there because of his seniority, or he had great merit.

  As for Zhao Yun's credit for conquering a county independently, there are records. If he also had great achievements, it would not be unrecorded.

  So I recognize the seniority issue.
