Chapter 156: Fateful Meeting(1/2)

"Young Master, then Wei Yan wants to see you."

As spring plowing began and the military farming was on track, Liu Chuang finally got free.

After returning to Gaomi after inspecting Yi'an, Liu Chuang was a little more relaxed. Wei Yue, later Qian and Huang Zhen were dispatched one after another. It seemed that the number of people available to Liu Chuang was reduced a lot. But in fact, it did not cause much fluctuation. Shi Huan was stationed in Dongwu, with 8,000 troops under his command, and could easily control the three areas of Dongwu, Langya and Jiaozhou Bay, and the troops were still very sufficient.

The only one that was affected was Gu Mu.

As soon as Wei Yue left, someone would have to guard Gumu, otherwise there would be an empty situation in the west of Gaomi.

Fortunately, Liu Chuang pulled Taishi Ci back. After Wei Yue left, Taishi Ci took over as General Yang Wu, as the chief of the military commander.

At the same time, Liu Chuang ordered Chen Qun to station in Anqiu, echoing Taishi Ciyao.

In this way, the Wenshui Triangle District formed by Chunyu, Anqiu and Chang'an counties was also firmly controlled by Liu Chuang, and there was no trouble.

In the lower secret, Guan Hai will be stationed, and there will be no mistakes.

The dock built by Xuezhou in Xiami has also begun to be put into production, and everything is firmly controlled by Liu Chuang.

Xu Sheng takes over the troops in Jiaozhou Bay and also remotely controls Jiaodong.

In the Donglai County, Wang Xiu successively used thunder to kill local tyrants, which made the gentry from all over Donglai County afraid to jump out and fight against each other. As for Ju County and Duchang, Liu Chuang still did not invest much energy. He asked Cen Bi to assist Liu Zheng in the Ju County area, and from time to time ordered Xiahou Lan and Zhou Cang to take turns to lead Feixiong Wei across the Wei River to assist Cen Bi in suppressing bandits. It was also a way to train troops.

Overall, Liu Chuang is very relaxed now.

If Bu Zhi hadn't reminded him, he almost forgot that he was still imprisoned a famous general from the Three Kingdoms in his prison.

On that day, Kuai Qi made trouble outside Gaomi City, and Liu Chuang once captured a brave general in Jingzhou.

The handsome general of Jingzhou was actually a magic refining general, which surprised Liu Chuang.

After asking, Liu Chuang found out that this Jingzhou general captured by him was Wei Yan... This time, Liu Chuang was really surprised. Wei Yan! He never expected that he would capture Wei Yan. That was one of the few generals in the Shu Han camp in the Three Kingdoms era. Although in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Wei Yan often gave people a feeling that he was not successful and had more than enough failure, he could not deny that this person's talent and courage were definitely among the top ten in the entire Three Kingdoms camp at that time. He was considered a great man.

Therefore, when Liu Chuang learned about Wei Yan's identity, he would inevitably be surprised.

Wei Yan was not successful in Jingzhou, he was just an ordinary young general.

After Liu Chuang asked the people of the Jingzhou mission, he found out the whole story... It turned out that Wei Yan was not from Jingzhou, but from Yiyang, Lujiang County, Yangzhou. This Yiyang was generally located in the eastern part of Tongbai County, Xinyang City, Henan Province, which was later in later generations. Later, he moved to Jingzhou for some reason. He treated his soldiers well and was arrogant. Although he was extremely brave, he was never favored by Liu Biao, so he had always acted as a young general under Deng Ji. In the battle of Huyang, Deng Ji was defeated, and Wei Yan broke through the siege and defected to Xiangyang. This time, Liu Biao sent Pang Ji as an envoy to Xu Du, and ordered Wei Yan to accompany him to protect him. Later, Kuai Qi came to Gaomi, and Pang Ji asked him to accompany him to protect Kuai Qi.

I thought I could be appreciated by Kuai Qi with my good martial arts, and I would gain a foothold in Jingzhou in the future.

But I don't want to...

After Liu Chuang learned about Wei Yan's identity, he did not go to recruit him immediately.

According to his understanding of Wei Yan, this is an extremely proud person. If he recruits him immediately, he may not surrender. If he wants to use it for himself, he must first dispel Wei Yan's pride in his bones, and then use both soft and hard to truly surrender him.

In addition, after the wedding, Liu Chuang's affairs were indeed busy, so he simply kept Wei Yan there and ignored him.

Now that Wei Yan took the initiative to ask for a meeting, Liu Chuang knew that the time should be almost the same...

"Since that's the case, then see him."

Liu Chuang ordered Zhou Cang to lead people to lift Wei Yan out of the prison.

In a flash, in the past two months, the brave general who was fighting with Liu Chuang outside Gaomi City now looked a little depressed.

Liu Chuang sat in the lobby, holding a volume of "Spring and Autumn" and ignored Wei Yan.

Wei Yan stood in the hall, and although he tried his best to straighten his back, he could tell that he was not so confident.

"Wen Chang sees me, what's wrong?"

After about one stick of incense, Liu Chuang put down the book and asked in a deep voice.

Wei Yan swallowed, "Uncle the Emperor has captured me until now, and he will not let me go or kill me, what's the reason?"

"Oh?" Liu Chuang heard this and laughed immediately, "Wen Chang wants to die?"

"Are you even a ants living secretly, let alone a human being?" Wei Yan did not pretentiously, but said straight to the point: "It's just that the emperor refused to kill me, and he didn't let me go? Yan was quite confused."

Liu Chuang leaned forward slightly and said in a deep voice: "Wen Chang, I won't kill you, I'm cherishing you with good martial arts."

But if I ask me to let you go, I feel very uncomfortable, and I feel like I'm letting the tiger go back to the mountain... Wen Chang, teach me what to do?"

This sentence has been made very clear.

Wei Yan is not a fool, how can you not hear what Liu Chuang means?

He hesitated for a moment, and suddenly knelt on one knee, kowtowed and said, "Yanjiu Mu's name is really longing for it, but unfortunately there is no door to see you. After being defeated by the Emperor, Yanxin is convinced and willing to serve the Emperor."

When Liu Chuang heard this, he couldn't help laughing.

He shook his head, pointed at Wei Yan and said, "I have long literary style, I also cherish your good martial arts.

But it is not easy to serve me. All the generals under my command follow me to fight in the north and south. Now they are all in their position, and they are not appointed out of thin air. If you want to serve me, you must start from the grassroots level. If you have real skills, I will not be stingy. But if you don’t have real skills, I’m afraid I won’t be responsible for you... Wen Chang, do you understand what these words mean?"

Liu Chuang really wanted to recruit Wei Yan in his heart.

But he knew very well that Wei Yan was too proud and had to be beaten up from time to time.

If you give him a little bit of expression, he would dare to open a dyeing shop... In history, Zhuge Liang used him and hit him. However, after Zhuge Liang's death, no one in Shu Han could suppress Wei Yan anymore, so Zhuge Liang had no choice but to design and kill this person.

Liu Chuang narrowed his eyes and stared at Wei Yan.

If you want to use this person well, you must have some patience.

Wei Yan was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth, "The emperor's uncle's meaning. Yan already understood. Yan believed that he was not inferior to others. He was willing to be a small soldier and make a future. He also asked the emperor's uncle to take it in."

He saw it very clearly. When he returned to Jingzhou, he might not have the best results.

He is not from Jingzhou, nor is he Liu Biao's confidant... He can imagine the difficulty of gaining a foothold in Jingzhou.

Instead of staying in Jingzhou without a way out, it is better to surrender to Liu Chuang.

At least, Liu Chuang was the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and his martial arts were better than him. He dominated the two counties and looked quite prosperous. If he surrendered to Liu Chuang now, he would be able to make a fortune with his military achievements in the future. If he had a future, he would be better than being wronged to return to Jingzhou.

Liu Chuang showed a smile on his face.

He stood up, walked around the desk and reached out to help Wei Yan up.

"Since Wen Chang has this intention, why don't you stay by my side for the time being and be a Sima of the Feixiong Guard Army? What do you think?"

Since Liu Chuang decided to recruit Wei Yan, he had naturally thought of a way to recruit Wei Yan long ago.

For this person, you can't just entrust him with important tasks at once, and you can only achieve it step by step... Moreover, Liu Chuang is not afraid that he will be arrogant.

You know, there are no talented people around Liu Chuang.

Taishi Ci and Xu Chu can defeat Wei Yan in terms of courage. Not to mention, Liu Chuang also left a Wei Yan's old opponent... After Zhuge Liang matured, Zhuge Liang would let him deal with this person. Liu Chuang believed that Zhuge Liang in history could obey Wei Yan's clothes, so Zhuge Liang would definitely do better than in history. Before that, let Wei Yan stay by his side and beat him up.

Wei Yan was overjoyed and quickly bowed to accept the order.

Naturally, Liu Chuang couldn't really let him start with a small pawn, that would be a waste of resources.

The army Sima has only 300 people under his command, which is not considered an important position. However, Feixiong Wei is Liu Chuang's personal army, so he can win over Wei Yan.

When the time is right in the future, make arrangements.

After subduing Wei Yan, Liu Chuang asked him to stay in Feixiongwei.

Now Feixiong Wei has a total of three divisions and 1,200 people.

Among them, there were 600 cavalry and 600 infantrymen... Liu Chuang divided the cavalry into two parts, one part, one part, three hundred people, and was commanded by Xiahou Lan and Wei Yan. The remaining 600 infantrymen were handed over to commander Zhou Cang, all of which were sword and shield soldiers, and their member selection mode was completely in accordance with Xiong Ju Army.

This can be said to be another elite force under Liu Chuang, besides Xiong Jujun.

With Zuo Bo's further maturity in papermaking, the great cause of writing was also launched.

Zheng Xuan went from Gaomi to the public and opened the Nanshan Academy in Nanshan, summoning famous scholars from all over the country to participate in the big event. This is also the most grand literary event since Dong Zhuo moved the capital. There is no need to say more about Zheng Xuan's appeal. As he raised his arms, scholars from all over the world responded one after another.

First Kong Rong and Xun Yue arrived first, and then Yingchuan scholars came to help.

Guan Ning and Bing Yuan joined this grand event, which also made Gaomi a place for scholars all over the world to pay attention to.

In February of the third year of Jian'an, a famous Yingchuan scholar Hu Zhao and Hu Kongming, who brought fifty Luhunshan disciples, traveled thousands of miles to Gaomi from Yingchuan.

Liu Chuang did not have a particularly deep impression of Hu Zhao's name.

But when Zheng Xuan went there, he once said to him: Kong Ming followed Liu Desheng... And Liu Desheng is considered to be your uncle.

Lingzun and Junsi have a deep friendship. After you meet Kong Ming, you must not lose your etiquette."

Liu Desheng, whose courtesy name is Junsi, was the founder of Yufa. Because he created the font "running script" between regular script and cursive script, he later called it the "ancestor of running script". Many people may not be familiar with this person, and they have not even heard of his name. If Liu Chuang had not learned calligraphy in his previous life, he might not have known this person. Liu Desheng had an apprentice, Liu Chuang's uncle, Zhong Yao, in his current life.

According to Zheng Xuan, aren’t Hu Zhao and Zhong Yao the same disciples?

But Zhong Yao was Liu Chuang's uncle, and Liu Chuang talked about it and was a peer with Hu Zhao... This messy relationship made Liu Chuang a little trouble. However, since Zheng Xuan gave the order, Liu Chuang would naturally keep it in mind. He attached great importance to Hu Zhao and his group.

"Don't Kang Chenggong have gone there?"

Hu Zhao was stunned when he learned that Zheng Xuan had left Gaomi.

Liu Chuang quickly explained: "The population of Gaomi is increasing, and with Daxing's military farms, it is a bit noisy.

The old man had lived in secluded place in the south mountain and had great feelings for it. In addition, the scenery was beautiful, so the old man decided to open the Nanshan Academy there, build a library, and ordered people to send all the books in the ancestral homes to separate them."

While explaining, Liu Chuang looked at a young man behind Hu Zhao.

The young man seemed to be Hu Zhao's disciple. Judging from his age, he was about 180 cm tall, which made him look taller.

He was blushed and white, and he was extremely handsome.
