Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 453 Depressed Li Yan!
Yuan Tan gave an order, and the entire Qiaojun City was nervously mobilized.

But with the previous victories as a foundation, although Li Yan's army is approaching, the soldiers still maintain an optimistic and high-spirited fighting spirit, and the Futu iron guards from Xuzhou are even more looking forward to it.

After all, the Xuzhou Army has a rule of recording meritorious service in battle. After a battle, no matter what it wins, the soldiers participating in the battle will have a first-class meritorious service.

Since they rescued Qiao County, they have already experienced three battles: Zhan Zhangwei, Zhan Wenpin, and Zhan Yanyan.

For example, the two thousand Futu iron guards who followed Deng Ai, even the soldiers who did not win, all got fourth-level meritorious service by remembering their meritorious service in front of the battle.

Although the Futu Iron Guards were originally treated as first-class superiors in the Xuzhou Army, the salary and treatment of each Buddha Iron Guard were twice that of normal soldiers.

But who would dislike his lack of military achievements?
And the guards of Qiao County were also inspired when they saw the high-spirited fighting spirit of the Futu Tiewei.

Although they were not organized by the Xuzhou Army, after Yuan Tan arrived, he directly offered a generous reward. As long as they were on the battlefield, all the defenders of Qiao County would receive a first-level merit, and one merit for a while.

After the war, the settlement was unified, and one piece of work could be exchanged for one stone of corn, or five hundred coins, or goods of equivalent value.

With this encouragement, coupled with the encouragement from the Iron Guards of the Buddha, the Qiaojun garrison was not afraid of the approaching Li Yan army.

On the contrary, there is more expectation.

On the other hand, Li Yan's army at this moment, although under the control of Li Yan's excellent commanding ability, still maintains a passable morale.

It can even maintain a rapid marching speed of fifty miles a day.

Even after receiving the news of the vanguard army's defeat, Li Yan's order could still be quickly conveyed to every combat unit in the army.

But Li Yan himself was worried. If he hadn't been the coach at the moment, he couldn't show his sadness, lest he be seen by the soldiers and affect their morale.

Li Yan probably wanted to cry now.

He had already heard the entire process of the Yizhou Army's vanguard annihilation from the vanguard army's retreating soldiers. With Li Yan's IQ and experience, he came to a conclusion after thinking about it for a while.

From beginning to end, this fire was planned by Yuan Tan himself.

As for Wu Ban, who was so stupid that Li Yan didn't even want to comment, and Liu Zhang, who was sitting in Chengdu and didn't know anything about marching and fighting.

It really made Li Yan unable to complain.

What kind of showmanship is this.

You actually let go of such great power to the military supervising army, you are the master!
If you really feel that Yan Yan is not worthy of trust, just let Wu Ban be the commander-in-chief and Yan Yan be the deputy-general, wouldn't that be enough?

But you didn't want to offend Yan Yan, and you were worried about Yan Yan's rebellion. In the end, you gave Wu Ban a warrant, which made Wu Ban feel that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and his mind was filled with the idea that Yan Yan might rebel.

A supervising army in the army, even if he has no real power, but as a confidant of the main public in the army, not to mention the commanding general, even the soldiers in the army will naturally have a kind of fear of the supervising army.

You also gave him so many hints. Didn't this force the supervisors and generals to fight among themselves? !
Li Yan took several deep breaths, finally couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and gritted his teeth bitterly.

Liu Zhang is mentally handicapped and Wu Ban is an idiot, the entire vanguard army has been turned into a mess by them!

I have to lead the troops to clean up by myself!
Although Li Yan was a little angry about Lei Tong and Yan Yan who surrendered to the enemy, in the final analysis, he was just angry and did not blame them.

Because Li Yan put himself in Yan Yan's position and thought about it for a while, and finally came to a very helpless conclusion.

If this matter were for me, I guess I would run away too.

Such a lord, really... what's the use of assisting him?

You are loyal to him, and he secretly prepares a knife for you, ready to stab you at any time...

No, I can't think about it anymore.

Li Yan shook his head, he wasn't Yan Yan and Lei Tong after all, they were from ordinary backgrounds and had no family concerns.

But Li Yan is different. The Li family is a rich family in Jiangyou, a family that is tied with the Wu family in Yizhou, and Li Yan himself is the head of the Li family. If he joins the enemy.

The family that is still in Yizhou is probably finished.

Seeing Li Yan's unkind expression, Li Yan's deputy general Wu Lan also sighed helplessly.

Wu Lan can actually understand the coach's thoughts, but Wu Lan really doesn't have a good mood to comfort Li Yan now.

Different from people like Li Yan and Wu Ban who came from Yizhou's big families, although Wu Lan also had the surname Wu, he had no connection with the Wu family in Yizhou. Like Lei Tong and Yan Yan, they were all solid warriors from the common people. Origin.

Without the support of her family, Wu Lan had to work harder than others if she wanted to stand out in Yizhou's intricate family network.

It's just that they are both warriors of the common clan, so the relationship between Wu Lan, Yan Yan and Lei Tong is naturally quite good.

Putting this relationship before, it can naturally become Wu Lan's further capital in the Yizhou Army.

But now, with Yan Yan and Lei Tong surrendering to Yuan Tan, Wu Lan's situation in the Yizhou Army is quite embarrassing.

Although Wu Lan was not worried, Liu Zhang would kill him. After all, almost everyone in Yizhou knew about Liu Zhang's cowardly temper.

Liu Zhang can't do this kind of operation, but his future official career can be imagined, and I'm afraid he will sit on the cold bench of the Polu captain in his hand until he dies of old age.

Thinking of this, Wu Lan couldn't help but sigh heavily.

The two generals in the army were not energetic. Even though they still pretended to be calm, this emotion still infected the soldiers in the army.

Naturally, it is impossible for the soldiers to have any high fighting spirit until they are under the city of Qiaojun.

The fighting spirit and morale of this Yizhou elite, which originally set out with high morale, has dropped to the point where it is no different from an ordinary army.

Li Yanqiang cheered up, gathered all the generals in the tent of the Chinese army, and said: "Our army has set up camp, and I intend to send a general to fight for the battle. I wonder which of you generals is willing to go out?"

After finishing speaking, Li Yan looked at the two lieutenants, Wu Lan and Liu Gui, one left and one right.

Feeling Li Yan's gaze, Wu Lan sighed helplessly in her heart, clasped her fists decisively and got up and said, "The general is willing to go!"

Li Yan's original intention was to let Wu Lan take this opportunity to prove herself. Even if she was defeated and returned to Yizhou, Wu Lan would not be too embarrassed by Liu Zhang.

Seeing that Wu Lan understood what he meant, Li Yan felt a little relieved. He was afraid that after Wu Lan heard the news about Yan Yan and Lei Tong, he would not be able to think about it for a while, so he would follow Yan Yan and Lei Tong to join the enemy.

In that case, the Yizhou army would no longer have to think about the siege of the city, and just go back to the division.

Morale has already collapsed, so why continue fighting?Send a head?
