Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 838 Holding gold and iron, going to the battlefield in person
Seeing the man on horseback approaching slowly, Duan Jin couldn't help but guess, and the result soon came to fruition.

"This man is followed by many cavalry, and he is so heroic. No need to ask, he must be Yang Yuan, one of the Yang brothers!"

Thinking of this, Duan Jin suddenly understood that the one who led the troops to intercept him on the way this time was not the young Ran Zhan at all!
Thinking of this, he felt a little more comfortable, but he was still unconvinced. He looked at the visitor coldly, without any sense of being a prisoner.

"Looking at you, are you still a little unconvinced?"

The young man on horseback came forward, looked at Duan Jin condescendingly, and asked.

"Of course I'm not convinced," Duan Jin didn't know whether it was because of the pain in his shoulder wound that made his head dizzy, or because he was so angry that he couldn't distinguish the situation, or because he was simply too courageous to go up without fear. He took two steps forward, puffed out his chest and shouted, "How could you have succeeded like this if you hadn't used this despicable sneak attack!"

"What a joke!" The young man on the horse sneered, "I'm afraid you were hit by the arrow and lost your mind. You forgot why you brought these people here so fast."

Duan Jin was stunned after hearing this, but Ran Zhan next to him had already started laughing.

Ran Zhan pointed at Duan Jin and said in a mocking tone: "You Youzhou declared war without declaring it and sent troops rashly. Isn't it just to sneak attack on our Dai County? Since you have no good intentions, how can you be so confident? You are so shameless. Ran Mou is really ashamed of his thickness, it’s an eye-opener! It’s an eye-opener!”

As his words fell, several soldiers around him also chuckled. In sharp contrast, it was the many soldiers beside the young man on horseback, whether they were riders on horses or infantry on the ground. No one had the slightest reaction, they all had tense faces and looked stern.

In an instant, Ran Zhan's laughter and the solemnity of the young man on horseback formed a sharp contrast, making Duan Jin feel an unspeakable sense of shame. He said uncontrollably: " If it weren't for the traitor passing the news to you, where would we be today? In the final analysis..."

In normal times, Duan Jin would never have said such a thing. After all, he had been a general who had led troops for many years and had experienced many battles. However, this was the most frustrating defeat he had ever suffered, and Ran Zhan was taunting him. Coupled with the wound on his shoulder, his eyes were darkened and his brain was so hot that he became speechless.

Ran Zhan smiled directly and said: "You are so good at sophistry. Now even I know that this soldier is a deceitful person. He is meant to win a battle. Everyone has a plan before the battle. The one with more temples wins. Knowing yourself and your enemy means you can fight a hundred battles without danger. How come it has become an excuse for you? Since there is a war, both sides should work together from top to bottom. Could it be that you think that the so-called military war is just a fight between two armies? Make a call?"

Ran Zhan only recently figured out these truths. In the past, he really thought that the so-called military war was just a battle between two sides to compare their strengths.

Duan Jin took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said, "That's easy to say, but do you think the general just sent my group of people here? Just wait."

"enough!"

At this time, the man on horseback suddenly spoke. His voice was not loud, but it had an unspeakable power. Even Ran Zhan, who was mocking and laughing in order to anger Duan Jin, immediately trembled and stopped after hearing this. Laughter, and the few soldiers beside him fell silent for an instant.

Such details, even if Duan Jin is dizzy at the moment, he can still realize the subtle flavor inside.

"This Yang Yuan is really extraordinary. Ran Zhan heard that he had an unruly temperament. Today, he could tell that he was like a wild dog. However, he was shut up by Yang Yuan's light words. This Yang Yuan..." Until this moment, he carefully looked at the young man on the horse, but he saw that this man was heroic and his eyes were bright. The look he looked over actually made him feel heavy. That kind of It actually felt like when facing Wang Jun.

"You are worthy of being a member of the Yang family. I heard that the Yang family is the top aristocratic family in the Han Dynasty. This Yang Yuan really has a magnanimity, which is somewhat similar to that of General Wang. How can such a person be willing to be a subordinate? By the way, I listen. He said that Yang Yuan was different from Yang Song, and seemed to have a slight criticism of Chen Zhi. He had performed well in the barracks before, and he might be able to take advantage of it! I can't escape now anyway, so I might as well cause some trouble for Chen Zhi, and maybe he can get some help. It takes some credit to be able to do this, otherwise if we just lose the battle today, I’m afraid our future will be hopeless!”

Thinking like this, he suddenly raised his head and said: "I have heard about Yang Jun's reputation for a long time. When I met today, I realized that fame is worse than meeting. I heard that Duan Bu and Ruan Bao were both commanded by Yang Jun and your brother. Losing at your hands, Duan is convinced!"

As he spoke, he suddenly lowered his voice, glanced at Ran Zhan, and sneered: "It's not like this Ran Zhan, who relied on Chen Shouyi's favor to have a place in the army. He has no achievements at all!"

"You! How brave!" Ran Zhan couldn't help shouting angrily, but he glanced at the young man on horseback and held back his words.

Duan Jin looked at this situation and confirmed his thoughts even more. He felt that Yang Yuan really had a high prestige in the army. Even Ran Zhan was a little afraid of him. He knew that Ran Zhan was valued by Chen Zhi because of his age. When he was young, he had to occupy a high position and even lead an army. Normally, even Daijun's aristocratic families would not dare to offend him, but in front of Yang Yuan, it was like a mouse seeing a cat.

"I'm afraid it's not just the power of Yang Yuan alone, but his brother is also in charge of the army in Daijun. The two brothers together have a great influence on the martial arts in Daijun. Thinking about it, Chen Zhi will be suspicious of them sooner or later!"

What Duan Jin thought was not that he could persuade Yang Yuan to let go of the good situation and defect to Wang Jun, or to let himself go, but just to use alienation tactics to drive a nail into his heart and disrupt the situation.

Therefore, he followed up and said: "Among the Wu Ding of Daijun, the ones I admire the most are the Yang brothers. Your reputation is truly earned. I don't want Ran Zhan to rely on his patronage, and I don't want to hide like Chen Zhi." In the rear, let you charge forward in dangerous areas! If you ask me, in this generation of county, you Yang brothers are the heroes!"

These last few sentences were the key point, so much so that Duan Jin's thoughts became clearer and he stared at the young man on horseback as he spoke, wanting to see his reaction.

"Hehe," the young man laughed, "Duan Jin, you are a bit interesting. At this time, you are still thinking about divorce. Unfortunately, Yang Yuan is not here, so he can't hear what you said, but Chen will help you. You conveyed it.”

"What?" Duan Jin was stunned when he heard this, "You... you are not Yang Yuan, who are you? Your surname is Chen, could it be..."

"That's right," the young man on the horse still smiled, "I am the Chen Zhi you mentioned hiding behind."

"Chen Zhi?" Duan Jin looked surprised and shocked, "You actually went to the battlefield in person?"

　Thanks to "Miying Qixia" for the reward!
