Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

The man came back again, which made Dian Wei a little vigilant, and he took the soldiers out first.

Outside the gate of the state capital, Chen Yang finally saw them.

There was an old man with gray hair beside the man, but this old man was the same as the old man in Taipingdao before. Although he was old, he had a strong figure and didn't look old at all, especially his eyes were bright.

Standing in front of him, Chen Yang felt that he was about to see through him.

"This old gentleman should be Li Yan?"

Chen Yang only took one look and guessed his identity.

"The general's surname is Chen. Did Mr. Shui Jing send the general to the west?"

Li Yan nodded slightly, but his words made Chen Yang stunned for a while.

"Could it be that he is the chance that Sima Hui said?" Chen Yang thought.

He looked at Li Yan with some doubts, as if he couldn't believe that Sima Hui's words could be so accurate.

Seeing Chen Yang's doubts, Li Yan said again: "Many years ago, I had a relationship with Mr. Shui Jing, and he said that in the past few years, a general surnamed Chen would come to me, until today , I finally waited for the general."

"Mr. Shui Jing is so powerful!" Chen Yang said in surprise.

"Mr. Shui Jing, you know everything!"

As Li Yan said, his eyes passed over Chen Yang, and finally fell on Wang Yue, and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, we haven't seen each other for many years."

Wang Yue nodded and said: "As expected, I did not guess wrong. Brother Li, you are in Bingzhou. You almost hurt your nephew by mistake just now. Please forgive me, Brother Li!"

Li Yan smiled indifferently, and said, "Guangping, why don't you make amends to General Chen and the others?"

"My son, Li Yuan, is named Guangping!"

After all, Li Yan briefly introduced his son.

"It was Guangping who offended the general before, please forgive me!"

Li Yuan stepped forward, lowered his head and said.

"Since the old man is an old friend of Wang Yue, let's let this matter go, and there is nothing to worry about." Chen Yang shook his head and said.

"Thank you, General Dayi!"

Li Yan sighed, and said: "Guangping, you will follow the general from now on, and you have the right to make amends!"

"Mister, you are..."

Chen Yang really appreciated Li Yuan's bravery, but he hadn't thought about bringing him by his side.

"Mr. Shui Jing once told me one thing. If you can meet the general surnamed Chen, you can make friends with him. Let Guangping follow the general, and you can keep the Li family brilliant for hundreds of years."

Li Yan said: "The general defeated Bingzhou City with more than 2000 people today, which is enough to prove his strength. In Guangping, you can follow the general to find a way out. Yuan Benchu ​​is not the master of the Ming Dynasty, so there is no need to stay in Bingzhou."

Chen Yang frowned slightly, and asked, "Mr. Shui Jing is like this, doesn't he have mastered all of this?"

Regarding Sima Hui's ingenious calculations, Chen Yang felt a sense of crisis, as if he let him arrange it.

Li Yan nodded and said: "At the beginning, I didn't believe Mr. Shui Jing's words, until now when I saw the general, I couldn't believe it."

"Li Yuan, I met the general!"

Li Yuan had no choice but to bow again in front of Chen Yang.

"After you leave with the general, you don't have to worry about family affairs. I'm here for everything. If you want to come back, you can!"

Li Yan paused for a moment, then said again: "But you have to help the prime minister to calm down the world before you can come back!"

"Yes!"

Li Yuan said respectfully.

"These are also Mr. Shui Jing's orders?"

Chen Yang asked in puzzlement.

He became more and more curious about Sima Hui, and he didn't want to be controlled by him.

Even he was still thinking, if there was no westbound trip back then, wouldn't there be a change now?

Li Yan said: "Yes, although I don't understand why Mr. Shui Jing is like this, but the appearance of the general has been fulfilled, so I have to believe it."

Chen Yang said: "Mr., how long have you known Mr. Shui Jing?"

Li Yan said, "I've only met once!"

Only met once, which made Chen Yang a little disappointed.

He thought that Li Yan and Sima Hui had a good relationship, so he asked the old man's identity by the way. It seemed that this idea had to be shelved.

Next, Li Yan walked into the city of Bingzhou in the middle of the night alone, leaving Li Yuan behind.

With such a brave general, Chen Yang can be regarded as gaining something, and put all kinds of thoughts behind him for the time being.

"Brother Li, your strength is not weak, let's compete again if we have the chance!" Dian Wei said excitedly.

Li Yuan grinned and said: "We will fight again next time, it is not certain who will win!"

Hearing what he said, Dian Wei was ready to move, and said again: "How about we have a competition now?"

Li Yuan shook his head and refused: "We are all generals under the general's command. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for the general to fight against each other? It's actually not difficult to compete. We can kill more soldiers than anyone else on the battlefield, how about it?"

Upon hearing this, Dian Wei also felt that this method was good, and said excitedly, "Okay!"

Seeing them like this, Chen Yang smiled knowingly. He was also worried that there would be conflicts between Li Yuan and Dian Wei, which would be difficult to handle.

From this point of view, there is no need to worry about this anymore.

the next morning.

In the entire city of Bingzhou, people were in panic, and they all looked in the direction of the state capital with concern.

Chen Yang didn't do anything to the people of Bingzhou, he just searched out the stockpiles of the soldiers in Bingzhou, and he didn't do anything to ordinary people.

Li Yuan came to seek refuge, and he also brought more than 2000 soldiers. Now that Chen Yang's troops have returned to 5000 people, naturally they need more supplies.

In addition, Chen Yang also ordered people to collect a lot of charcoal, sulfur and saltpeter, because the firearms were almost used, and some needed to be prepared for backup.

Chen Yang doesn't have as strong hands-on ability as Ma Jun, but he can command soldiers to make some ordinary firearms, so it's not a problem.

"General, should we build the city gate of Bingzhou to defend against Yuan Shao?" Li Yuan said suddenly.

Chen Yang shook his head and said: "I captured Bingzhou, I just wanted to cause chaos behind Yuan Shao, I didn't want to defend Bingzhou, as soon as Yuan Shao's army came, Bingzhou was in danger, so there is no need to defend now."

Li Yuan said again: "If there was an incident in Bingzhou, wouldn't it be better if we could coordinate with Prime Minister Cao and attack Yuan Shao?"

"If we can think of this, then Yuan Shao will think of it too."

Chen Yang said: "It is impossible for Yuan Shao to give us this opportunity. Although he and the Prime Minister are in a stalemate, the Yuan family has a great career, and it is not impossible to draw some people to deal with us!"

"What's more, there are still Huns with strong men and horses next to Bingzhou. What if Yuan Shao takes the risk and asks the Huns for help?"

He continued: "Once a person is persecuted to a certain extent, he can do anything."

Li Yuan nodded with a vague understanding.

"Help me pass the order, arrange the supplies in Bingzhou, leave as soon as possible before this evening, and go south to Yecheng!" Chen Yang said again.

Soon, it was evening.

Chen Yang rectified the soldiers and left Bingzhou in a mighty manner.

In this way, all the people of Bingzhou who were in fear secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

They were very worried about what Chen Yang would do to them.
