Shu Han Confucian General of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 47
"Report to the general, the enemy general Yuan Yin is calling for battle below the city!"

In the early morning of the next day, Zhao Feng and the others were preparing to withstand a new wave of attacks, but they didn't expect the sentry at the top of the city to bring such news.

"Yuan Yin?" Zhao Feng was not very familiar with this person, so he turned his head to look at Zhang Liao and the others. "This Yuan Yin is Yuan Shu's younger brother. He sent troops to attack Guangling a few days ago..." Zhang Liao briefly introduced his background.

"How about his martial arts?" Zhao Feng asked.In fact, he was already a little bit depressed. Since he was someone who hadn't been mentioned in Romance of the Three Kingdoms or Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it shouldn't be too bad.

Sure enough, Zhang Liao said with a smile: "This man's martial arts are poor, even worse than Ji Ling. Any one of us here can easily defeat him."

"Since that's the case, take a break, generals, and wait for me to deal with this guy." Wu Dun volunteered immediately. "Wait a minute, General Zhang, what is the relationship between Yuan Yin and Ji Ling?" Zhao Feng asked suddenly.Ever since Zhang Liao talked about the origin of this guy, Zhao Feng's mind turned quickly.

Zhang Liao was stunned for a moment, and then continued: "It is said that the relationship between the two is very stiff. Although Ji Ling is Yuan Shu's number one general, Yuan Shu is nepotism, and he has gained more power from his younger brother Yuan Yin."

"If that's the case, then there's something for you, Guan Ping, I order you to fight Yuan Yin, but if you lose, you don't win!" Zhao Feng thought about his plan and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he ordered Guan Ping to take the lead.

"Huh?" Guan Ping was very excited when he heard Zhao Feng calling his name to fight, but he was stunned when he heard the last sentence. "General, why is this?" Before Guan Ping could speak, the impetuous Wu Dun had already asked.

"Hehe, the secret must not be leaked. Generals, not just Guan Ping, we will all lose to this Yuan Yin several times in the future. I have my own clever plan." Zhao Feng said in a mysterious way, leaving Zhang Liao and others looking at each other in blank dismay.

Although Guan Ping was unwilling, the military orders were difficult to disobey, so he immediately accepted the order in a muffled voice, and went down to the city fully clothed and mounted his horse to fight Yuan Yin. "Who is coming? I will not kill the unknown!" Yuan Yin saw a young general coming, knew it was not Zhang Liao, so he hurriedly shouted.

"Guan Ping, the eldest son of Yuzhou Mu Guan Yu, Yuan Yin will die as a traitor!" After Guan Ping patted his horse and wielded his sword, he stepped forward and slashed. Yuan Yin was furious and raised his gun to meet him.The two horses crossed each other and their swords intersected. Guan Ping only used four or five points of strength in order to feign defeat, but in the end it was evenly divided.

Although Yuan Yin was so provoked yesterday that he boasted that he was going to defeat Zhang Liao in Haikou, after all, he still knew his own strength. He knew that since even Ji Ling couldn't beat Zhang Liao, he would lose a lot if he went up.But now that the words have been spoken, we can only hope that it will be some unknown junior who will fight at that time, and he can just deal with it a few times and fool him.

Now that Guan Ping is playing, Yuan Yin really deserves it.Of course, he didn't know that Guan Ping was limited by the military orders and dared not perform to his full potential, but the two of them played every move with discipline.After fighting for about [-] rounds, Guan Ping took advantage of an opening and deliberately asked Yuan Yin to slap his left arm with the gun, then turned his horse's head and ran away, yelling, "Quick retreat, quick retreat!" , the enemy general is powerful in martial arts, I am no match for him!"

"Hahahaha!" Yuan Yin's horse was not as fast as Guan Ping's, and it was too late for him to chase after him, so he just stood on the spot and laughed wildly, while the sergeant behind him even waved his flag and shouted with great pride.

"General, the general will return after defeat!" Guan Ping on the top of the wall reported to Zhao Feng. "Very good, we won't fight today, we are going to defend the city!" Zhao Feng comforted him a little, and then ordered not to fight.Yuan Yin flaunted his might under the city for a while, seeing that the other side would not fight anymore, he swung his army to attack the city.The Xuzhou army was still shooting arrows like rain, and the ballista fired again and again, and resumed the previous routine of offensive and defensive warfare.

Not to mention Yuan Yin's complacency, Zhang Liao and others were puzzled, and Ji Ling and Qiao Mao were also quite surprised by Yuan Shu's army at this time.They knew that Yuan Yin's martial arts were poor, but they didn't expect to win today's battle.

"Congratulations to General Yuan for winning the battle today!" Although they have different opinions, but Yuan Yin won the battle, Ji Ling and Qiao Mao still need to do superficial congratulations. Yuan Yin is ordering Wen to write a memorial to ask Yuan Shu in Huainan for credit.

"Hey, today's opponent is just an unknown young general. I will defeat Zhang Liao and Zhao Feng tomorrow, and then break through Guangling and take Xuzhou!" Yuan Yin was also extremely complacent. The fact is that it's a little too weird, but I can't tell what's wrong.

The next day, Yuan Yin, who did not accept the good news, continued to fight. "General Wu, if you go to battle today, you will be defeated but not victorious!" Zhao Feng continued to order.

"The last general obeys!" Wu Dun went down to the city and fought dozens of rounds with Yuan Yin, and finally pretended to be weak and was stabbed in the right arm by the opponent, and returned home in defeat.

"Hahahaha!" Seeing that he had defeated another person, Yuan Yin felt that his martial arts skills were hard to come by.Seeing that the Xuzhou army was staying behind closed doors again, they immediately ordered the troops to fight again. Except that Guan Ping was replaced by Wu Dun, the rest of the day was almost the same as yesterday.When the troops were withdrawn at night, Yuan Yin once again ordered the military officials to write a memorial to Yuan Shu.

On the third day, Zang Ba went out to fight, but returned in a big defeat;

On the fourth day, change to Zhang Liao and continue to lose;
On the fifth day, Zhao Feng went out in person, but was still defeated;

"Hahahaha!" Seeing that Zhao Feng was smashed by his own gun and fled, Yuan Yin almost laughed out loud.Of course he didn't know that the middle of the handle of Zhao Feng's gun had been sawed by him last night until there was only a little bit still connected. He only thought that he broke the opponent's weapon with his immense strength.

Huainan is not far from Guangling. Every time Yuan Yin wins a battle these days, he writes a memorial that night and immediately reports it to Yuan Shu in Shouchun City. "Haha, Liu Bei has lost several times in a row, and he is really exhausted." Yuan Shu, the freshly-baked emperor of the Zhong family, looked at the stack of victory reports in front of him, grinning from ear to ear.It is different from being encircled and suppressed by the three-way army as soon as he became emperor in history. Now Yuan Shu has not been attacked actively. Of course, this is because Cao Cao and Liu Bei have not slowed down yet.

But Yuan Shu didn't think so. He thought that he had enough soldiers and food, and no princes would dare to attack.In his view, as long as Liu Bei is killed, the remaining princes from all walks of life will surely be invincible and come to surrender one after another.At the same time, Liu Bei in Xuzhou City was shocked when he learned that Zhao Feng and others had lost five games in a row, and hurriedly called everyone to discuss.For a while there were different opinions, all said to send people to support Zhao Feng again, only Lu Su objected.

"My lord, don't worry, I guess this is General Zhao's plan!" Lu Su laughed.

"How did Zijing see it?" Liu Bei was also a little surprised.

"General Zhao is resourceful and resourceful, and Su Yi sighs that he is not as good. This Yuan Yin is an unknown person, how can he defeat several generals in Xuzhou in a row?" After a pause, Lu Su continued: "Although General Zhao lost for many days , but has never sent anyone to ask for help, it must be his own opinion! Su boldly predicted that General Zhao's defeat of the enemy will be in the near future!"

Liu Bei was skeptical after hearing this, but the rest of the people didn't believe it. Liu Bei thought for a long time, and just in case, he asked Song Xian and Wei Xu to lead 1 horses to support Guangling.

On the sixth day, in Guangling city. "General, Yuan Yin is calling out in the city again!" This morning, the small school in the city still reported the same news. "Understood, it seems that Yuan Yin has taken the bait, and he has been beaten these days." Zhao Feng touched the short beard that had just grown out of his chin, and then ordered: "Guan Ping, you will fight in the near future, you must be captured alive Yuan Yin, remember, you want to live, you don't want to die, understand?"

"The last general takes orders!" Guan Ping excitedly clasped his fists and said, and then quickly put on his clothes and went out of the city to face the battle. "You kid is here to die again, go and change to someone who is stronger!" Seeing Guan Ping again, Yuan Yin's interest suddenly faded.

"Hmph, stop talking nonsense and die!" Guan Ping was also panicked with aggrieved heart, and immediately drove his horse forward to fight again.As soon as they fought, Yuan Yin was taken aback. This Guan Pingdao was several points faster than the previous fight, and it was also several points heavier. He had only fought for seven or eight rounds, and he was almost cut by him.Panicked, he lost a few percent of his skills, and after another five or six rounds, Guan Ping hit his back with the back of a knife and fell off the horse. When he landed, his throat was congested, and he spurted blood.

"Tied up!" Guan Ping's broadsword rested on Yuan Yin's neck, and several soldiers came forward with thick hemp ropes and tied Yuan Yin tightly, and then dragged him back to the city.By the time Ji Ling and Qiao Mao, who were in the battle, came back to their senses, it was already too late.

"What's going on here?" Ji Ling and Qiao Mao couldn't figure it out for a while, and when they realized it, the gate of Guangling City had already been closed.

"Crack!" Two soldiers dragged Yuan Yin, who was bundled into a rice dumpling, to the hall of Guangling Mansion, "General Zhao, the last general is lucky!" Guan Ping, who came after him, clasped his fists and said.

"Young General Guan has worked hard, this time the credit is not small!" Zhao Feng first praised a few words, and then with a lewd smile on his face, he said to Yuan Yin who was standing proudly but his legs were already trembling: "Your Excellency must be Yuan Lao Er's son." From younger brother Yuan Yin?"

"Bold, how dare you be so rude to my Emperor Zhong! You and other rebellious officials and thieves have not surrendered early. Once my Huainan army arrives, you and other nine clans will be wiped out!" Yuan Yin's words sounded righteous, but he cooperated With his shivering appearance, no matter how you look at it, it gives people the feeling of being harsh.

These words immediately annoyed Zang Ba, "You dog thief followed that rebel Yuan Shu to make trouble, so you are a rebel. General Zhao, keeping this kind of stuff is a waste of food, it's better to kill it clean!"

"Huh?" Zhao Feng touched his short beard noncommittally, he suddenly found that he liked to stroke his beard more and more, and looked at Yuan Yin with a half-smile.

"Don't, don't, don't kill me!" Yuan Yin, who was still a little unyielding when he was about to die, collapsed to the ground in fright when he saw this posture. "I don't want to do anything to you for the time being. Come here, take this guy to the top of the city and tell Ji Ling that if he dares to attack the city again, he will chop off Yuan Yin's head!" Zhao Feng gave this order, but Another fifty cavalry were sent out far away, paying attention to robbing and killing the messenger sent by Ji Ling's army to Huainan.

At this time, Zhang Liao and the others felt that they understood: Zhao Feng wanted to use Yuan Yin as a hostage to prevent Ji Ling from attacking the city to reduce casualties.But what they couldn't figure out was: why didn't Zhao Feng capture Yuan Yin alive as soon as possible?
