Wei Yan's appearance was expected by Liu Chan, because he knew that he was the prince of the Han Dynasty, and Wei Yan... was one of the most powerful generals under his father's command.
The appearance of Wei Yan was also part of Jia Xu's plan, because he knew that Liu Chan was the prince of the Han Dynasty, and Wei Yan was Liu Bei's confidant general...
When Liu Chan encountered danger, even though Wei Yan found that Cao's army was preparing for the attack step by step and seemed to be fully prepared, he still rushed out.
Without any hesitation, he held a sharp blade and led a small number of cavalry to charge directly from the flank, aiming directly at the crossbowmen who were constantly releasing rain of arrows.
As long as their crossbowmen are destroyed, even if they can no longer function, tens of thousands of people and the soldiers of the Han Dynasty can fight back desperately.
When the time comes, these Cao soldiers will not have an easy time.
Wei Yan had a good idea, but before he could actually take action, another army of troops appeared on both sides.
The leader of the banner was Cao Zhen, the commander of Cao's army who rushed from Cao Pi's side, and his deputy general Zhang He...
"Wei Yan, take your life!"
As Cao Zhen roared, the eight-foot-tall, broad-waisted guy directly charged towards Wei Yan's side with the giant blade in his hand. He raised the sharp blade high in his hand and dropped it suddenly toward Wei Yan's head.
"Junior, you are arrogant!"
Compared to Cao Zhen's roar, Wei Yan was much more indifferent, but this indifference was full of disdain and ridicule.
In that way, he really regarded Cao Zhen as a junior who was not in his eyes, and he also greeted him with the long knife in his hand.
After a loud noise, Wei Yan and Cao Zhen stopped their attacks at the same time. The huge force made each other feel the pressure, and at the same time, the horses under their crotches couldn't help but whine.
Only this time, Wei Yan's face became significantly heavier, while Cao Zhen opened his big mouth, revealing a long-lost and ferocious smile.
As the current commander-in-chief of the northwest of Cao Wei, he is naturally no stranger to Wei Yan who is stationed in Hanzhong.
Even if they don't actually fight each other, the two sides will often test each other.
Wei Yan's formation of troops in Hanzhong surprised Cao Zhen. The layered camps and forts made Cao Zhen think of a word, dotted.
It was at that time that Cao Zhen discovered this incredible guy and knew that Wei Yan's ability should not be underestimated.
Today, Cao Zhen's evaluation of Wei Yan went up a notch.
"Before, I just thought that General Wei Yan was a good general under Liu Bei, but now it seems that General Wei Yan is actually quite brave?
The general is already trapped in a tight siege today, why is he still unwilling to surrender?
As long as the general puts down his sword, Cao can assure the general today that there will definitely be a place for the general in the Wei Dynasty.
Wouldn't it be nice to be honored as a general on the golden stage in the future?
Fortunately, Liu Xuande wasted all his skills..."
"There's so much nonsense!" Wei Yan looked at Cao Zhen who was speaking eloquently to him, regained his strength a little, and then retorted to Cao Zhen in one sentence.
Immediately afterwards, under Cao Zhen's furious eyes, Wei Yan rushed in the other direction with his troops.
It seemed that they were planning to bypass Cao Zhen's obstruction and charge directly to Cao Zhang and Xu Huang's main formation again.
Seeing this scene, Cao Zhen couldn't help but become furious. He said that Wei Yan didn't know what was good for him. At the same time, he called Zhang He on the other side to charge directly and surround Wei Yan in Nanyang County.
But it was obvious that Cao Zhen valued Wei Yan very much, but he still underestimated Wei Yan's ability.
As the governor of Hanzhong who was directly placed in his own territory by Liu Bei against all objections, Wei Yan's status was not gained by being favored.
This guy really relied on his own ability to achieve success!
Wei Yan, who was circling his own war horse, did not directly fight Cao Zhen this time. Instead, he circled and rushed out before Cao Zhen and Zhang He were encircled.
Although they were far away from the main formation of Xu Huang and others, the direction almost frightened Cao Zhen.
That direction was exactly where Jia Xu was. Although he didn't know whether Wei Yan did it by coincidence or on purpose, Cao Zhen didn't dare to bet.
"Stop him!"
Under Cao Zhen's roar, Cao Jun immediately rushed over. Even Zhang He threw away his rear army, and directly led his Qingqi to prepare to go around to the front of Wei Yan to stop him.
This scene made Wei Yan stunned for a moment, then he glanced at Cao Zhen thoughtfully, and then looked at the direction in which he was charging, his eyes thoughtful.
However, although Wei Yan was brave, the cavalry under his command was not easy to accumulate.
But what he faced was the Cao army that dominated the north, and Zhang He and Cao Zhen were both veteran generals who came from the northwest, and they were accompanied by authentic Yongliang cavalry.
The speed of the war horses was much faster than that of Wei Yan. Although Wei Yan had discovered something, he still could not get rid of Zhang He and was stopped in front by his cavalry.
However, after Wei Yan briefly fought with Zhang He, he turned his horse around again and rushed out of the obviously larger gap between Zhang He and Cao Zhen.
In this way, relying on the pull of the cavalry, although Cao Zhen and Zhang He continued to encircle and suppress Wei Yan, they were helpless.
Moreover, his direction always seemed to be heading towards the direction of Jia Xu, which made the generals under Cao Jun a little panicked.
Seeing that the situation was about to become unstable, Cao Zhang, who was encircling Liu Chan and others, had to withdraw and led his cavalry to block the gap again.
After all, Wei Yan was not allowed to turn the world upside down.
However, precisely because of Wei Yan's appearance, Liu Chan's pressure suddenly eased a lot. Although he still could not lead his troops to break out of the encirclement, Sun Qian and Jian Yong showed a hint of excitement.
"Your Highness must obey the arrangements of the two of us in a moment and must not run around. Although Xu Huang is brave, he does not have many soldiers and horses in his hands, but now he can no longer stop me.
Although I don't know why the ship hasn't come yet, but now I can no longer wait for Huang Quan's navy.
Later, Wang Ping, you and your troops will continue to stabilize our position and retreat slowly. Deng Zhi, Ma Zhong and others will follow us to protect His Highness.
Prepare to break out! "
"Then General Wei Yan..."
"Don't worry, Wei Yan is defeated at best this time, but he can't die."
Jian Yong directly interrupted Liu Chan's words, then took out the dry food he had prepared and stuffed it into Liu Chan's mouth to shut him up.
"Eat something, I guess you won't have a chance to eat in the next few days."
As the situation on the battlefield changed, Jia Xu also brought Cao Ren to the battlefield. Looking at the chaotic situation, Jia Xu frowned for the first time.
"Hey...why didn't I see the warship that Zhuge Liang came to meet?"
"Lieutenant...I haven't seen it either..." At this time, Cao Jun's general Guo Zhao, who was supposed to be responsible for intercepting the warship, also looked confused.
"I followed the captain's instructions to intercept the warship in the distance, but... after waiting for a long time, there was no sign of the warship."
"...Xiangyang!"
