Duane suddenly forgot what he was going to say.

"Father, I forgot."

I remembered it originally, but the Lord suddenly looked at him and forgot about him.

Yu Jiangli glanced at him, continued drinking, and fell silent again.

Although Du An forgot what he wanted to say just now, he found that when he mentioned the name Wei Lian, the fierceness in his eyes seemed to be less than before.

Could it be—

Is the old problem of cherishing talents happening again?

This... is really possible!

If Wei Lian continued to shine, wouldn't he have forgotten those suffocating days in the cottage?

Thinking of this, Du An opened his mouth and said: "Master, this subordinate remembers it again. Just now, the subordinate actually wanted to ask, does the arrow wound on Master's chest still hurt these days? Wei Lian shot the arrow that day. It's really cruel, but he went for the life of the master."

Yu Jiangli's hand holding the wine glass froze slightly, and the fierce light in his eyes reappeared.

Duan breathed a sigh of relief and was relieved.

That's right, what people want is your life, so you should accept your old problem of cherishing talents.

The Wei army was so powerful that after taking the city of Guangyang, within a few days, it took several cities in Cangzhou one after another.

Wei Jun let out the words, raised the white flag and did not kill, so there really was that useless guard who gave up resistance in order to save a small life, and directly opened the city gate to welcome the Wei army into the city.

There is a good reason for these people to surrender. Even Guangyang City, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, was captured by the Wei army overnight, and they felt that they could not be compared with Guangyang City.

If the city will be destroyed by the Wei army sooner or later, it is better to reduce casualties and surrender.

As for whether the above will be blamed, they can no longer care about it, and it is important to save their lives first.

What's more, if the Wei army continues to attack according to this momentum, it is still a question whether the emperor's position can be maintained. At that time, the emperor will have the time to deal with their crimes.

Of course, the guards of these cities are not all wine bags and rice bags. For example, Zhou Yuanan, the general of Lake City, is a respectable and admirable general.

If it were replaced by the enemy army who entered the city and then burned, killed, and looted, Zhou Yuan would have lived and died together with Lake City for the sake of the people in the city.

Of course, this time the enemy was Wei Jun.

Zhou Yuanan hesitated.

Unfortunately, he had to fight this battle.

Zhou Yuanan was a native of the imperial capital, and was transferred to Hucheng in Cangzhou by Jun Jun a year ago. The entire Zhou family and the entire Zhou family's ancestral hall are in the imperial capital. If he dared to surrender without a fight, then his family in the imperial capital would be killed by that faint king.

Even if he can secretly pick up the whole family, what if the Zhou clan has hundreds of mouths?

All he can do is die.

"General! The subordinates just saw an arrow shot towards the city wall, and thought the enemy was going to attack, but the arrow pierced the flagpole steadily, and then the subordinates found this on the arrow. !"

The subordinate presented Zhou Yuanan with an arrow tied with a small cloth strip.

"Who can you see?" Zhou Yuanan asked in surprise.

This bow and arrow can either be used on flat ground or take advantage of a high geographical location. It doesn't need to be so accurate, and the arrow will always hit the densely packed enemies.

The light at night was already dim, and the city walls of Lake City were built so high that this man could actually hit the flagpole that was inserted into the city wall. This man was really good at archery!

Not only is he good at archery, but his arm strength is also amazing!

The subordinate replied: "It seems to be a young son who doesn't even wear armor."

Speaking of this, the subordinate lowered his voice and asked, "General, do you think it will be that Wei Lian?"

Zhou Yuanan was startled.

Could it be Wei Lian?

The leader of the enemy army personally came to deliver the letter to him? How could he be so honored?

Zhou Yuanan quickly unfolded the banner and browsed the contents of the letter.

After reading it, his frowning brows suddenly loosened, and the whole person was relieved. The anxiety that had been sitting between his brows for the past few days seemed to disappear in an instant, "As expected of Wei Lian."

"General, this letter..."

Zhou Yuanan did not hide his confidants, "Wei Lian said that he had already sent people to transfer my family and clansmen, and sent people to protect them secretly."

The subordinate was surprised, "How did he do it?"

Zhou Yuanan showed admiration, "Before attacking Tongzhou, Wei Lian had a plan."

"What? It's so early? Why didn't the general's family send a letter to report this?"

"Xu is afraid of accidents. The hidden poem on the letter is the code for my connection with my brother. They are indeed safe now."

Zhou Yuanan sighed with emotion, "In order to reduce casualties, I am ashamed that Wei Lian was able to do this. If Wei Lian is the new ruler, it would be a blessing for the people of the world."

Subordinates take it seriously.

This Wei Lian was also a genius. He had inquired about the situation of the major cities early, and then arranged it so properly that a fierce battle was avoided.

He didn't know how the other cities were, but the soldiers brought out by their generals were all very brave.

Although Wei Lian was powerful, if he wanted to forcefully attack Lake City, he would not be able to capture their city within ten days and a half.

But now, the general doesn't have to take his brothers to guard the city gate.

"Tomorrow I want to open the city gate to welcome the Wei army into the city. You go to appease the people and don't let them panic too much." Zhou Yuanan said.

The subordinate immediately said: "General, you have to worry too much about this. Tongzhou's nursery rhyme has been spread to Cangzhou these days. The people in the city are not worried about the Wei army attacking the city, but the general."

"What nursery rhyme?"

The subordinate said, "It's a nursery rhyme praising Wei Jun."

Zhou Yuanan frowned, "I have already ordered the gates to be closed, how did this nursery rhyme spread to the city?"

The subordinate shook his head, "The subordinate doesn't know either."

Zhou Yuanan thought of something, and said incredulously, "Could it be that before Wei Lian attacked Tongzhou, there were people who spread rumors in the major cities of Cangzhou?"

The subordinates were also shocked, "How could Wei Lian think about this? Then this Wei Lian is too powerful."

...

"Yuanyuan, that General Zhou was secretly praising you. And General Zhou plans to open the city gate after reading your letter." Xiaotang reported.

Nan Yuan snorted, "If the information is correct, Zhou Yuan'an is serious about love and righteousness. Even if I forcefully attack the city, he will not stubbornly resist. When the time is right, he will kill himself and give that monarch an explanation to protect his elite soldiers. with family."

"Yuanyuan, this Zhou Yuanan is quite handsome. Yuanyuan saved him indirectly. If he didn't show his promise, he wouldn't be able to justify it."

Nan Yuan: "...What did you say?"

"Oh, they are talking about those Wei sisters who were promised to you by their bodies, what do you think, Yuanyuan?"

Nan Yuan: I didn't think about it.

"Your sister Wei Xinyan has some signs with that Yan Song recently, but don't you have a lot of younger sisters under you? You, as a brother, can't choose a good gentleman from a group of good sisters? I'll hook Yuanyuan here, the goal As soon as it appears, I'll tell you."

Xiaotang has now changed her strategy. Since Yuanyuan can't eat it herself, she will take it back and be her brother-in-law.

Get a group of good-looking brother-in-laws, just think about it.

In a good mood, Xiaotang began to recite the nursery rhyme she created: "We are not afraid of Wei Jun coming, we are not afraid, there is rice to eat, clothes to wear, Wei Jun is all quack, and the people all laugh haha..."

Thinking that more people will sing the nursery rhymes it created in the future, Little Candy began to float.

It's a genius, and the nursery rhymes are catchy, especially suitable for singing.

Also, Yuanyuan is willing to give it such a difficult task of compiling nursery rhymes, which shows how much Yuanyuan trusts its ability now, wow hahaha...
