The crowd was in an uproar. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Only then did they understand what Yuan Tan meant, the eldest son of the Yuan family, actually wanted to use human flesh as military food and give them food.

"Eldest prince, how can this be done, how can human flesh be eaten, then we will not become animals." Xu Yu hurriedly objected.

"Yes, eldest prince, how can we eat human flesh." Ju Yi also objected in a deep voice, "If this is spread, what is the reputation of the eldest prince, it will definitely become a stain on the eldest prince's life." ”

Yuan Tan said coldly: "Fame is in the future, life is now, if I can't live and defend Liyang, even if I have the reputation of a saint, I have a fart use." ”

Yuan Tan's straightforward words choked everyone speechless, and they didn't know how to respond, so they could only be silently shocked.

They are all smart people, and they all know that in the face of life, everything is a floating cloud.

If a scribe like Xu Yu still has a sense of etiquette and shame, like Ju Yi, an iron-blooded soldier who kills in the corpse pile, he doesn't have so many scruples.

Since it has reached the point of last resort, eating human flesh is not unacceptable to the hearts of soldiers like them.

"As long as I can keep Liyang, as long as I can make my son regain the trust of my father, I will not hesitate to pay any price!" Yuan Tan drank resolutely, "It's decided, tonight you will go your own way and get military rations for your subordinates." ”

Yuan Tan was decided, and everyone had to shut up, and Ju Yi and other generals took orders and left silently.

Xu You also had nothing to say, shook his head and sighed and turned away, and when he stepped out of the door, he turned around and glanced at Yuan Tan secretly, and a trace of imperceptible color flashed in his eyes.

Twilight.

Yuan Tan's order had been conveyed to the battalions, and the hungry soldiers, after the initial shock, all fell silent and began to sharpen their knives silently, preparing for tonight's slaughter.

Even the eldest prince who has read the books of sages has no scruples, they don't know a single big word, and they join the army just to eat for a small amount of food, what else can't they let go.

Anyway, those people in the city, they don't know any of them, and they eat them, as long as they don't eat their relatives.

Today's Liyang City is surprisingly quiet, the Liang army unexpectedly did not launch an artillery bombardment, and the creepy sound of sharpening knives echoed in the deathly silent Liyang City.

The news that the army was going to attack them and use them as rations soon spread to the ears of the surviving civilians.

The frightened people began their last dying struggle, desperately trying to flee across the city.

Yuan Tan had already taken precautions, and had ordered in advance to strictly inspect the front line along the city, and once the people of Yuecheng were captured, they would be immediately dragged into the camp for slaughter.

Yuan Tan thought that these Diao people in his eyes were born servile, and even if they died, they would never dare to resist, so they could only be like lambs, allowing him to slaughter.

This time, he was wrong.

At night, Yuan Tan, who was cooking wine in the house to keep warm, suddenly got an emergency military report from the south gate:

Nearly 4,000 civilians suddenly launched an organized riot against the south gate, and the defenders of the south gate were scattered in an attempt to escape from the city.

"What, these Diao people, dare to resist!?" The wine glass in Yuan Tan's hand fell off his hand, and the whole person instantly fell into shock.

He never thought that these pig-like people would dare to resist and attack the south gate!

If these people were allowed to flee, it would mean that his life-saving rations would slip through his mouth, and everything would be over.

What's even more terrifying is that the south gate is chaotic, if the Liang army outside the city takes advantage of the chaos to attack, wouldn't it be easy to break through Liyang.

"These damn Diao people!" The enraged Yuan Tan didn't have time to think about it, he jumped up, and Pegasus headed towards the south gate.

When Yuan Tan arrived at the South Gate, the entire front line of the South Gate was in chaos, and the people who were so hungry that they only had skin and bones left, were fighting desperately with his soldiers with rudimentary weapons such as hoes and wooden sticks.

What shocked Yuan Tan even more was that these people were no longer satisfied with escaping from the city, they were fighting to the death, and at the same time summoning the Liang army outside the city, wanting to invite the Liang army to take the opportunity to attack the city.

"Are these people crazy, what do they want to do, what do they want to do?"

Yuan Tan, who was furious, swung his spear into the chaotic army, killed wildly, beheaded more than ten people in a row, and finally killed the head of the city and joined Ju Yi.

"What about Xu You, where is Xu You?" Yuan Tan shouted.

"Eldest prince, Xu You's defected!" Ju Yi shouted angrily, and pointed his knife out of the city, "That guy took advantage of the chaos to escape from the south gate with a team of soldiers and horses, and fled in the direction of Liang Ying. ”

Thundered!

Another thunderbolt hit the top of Yuan Tan's head, slammed into his body, and shattered his heart instantly.

He was anxious to look into the distance, and by the light of the raging fire, he saw Xu You's figure, galloping on a horse outside the city.

The leader of the Ruying faction, the advisor who has always been his most confidant, and the righteous man who keeps saying that he wants to live and die with him......

Now, at his most critical moment, he really abandoned him.

Yuan Tan's heart was completely broken, almost going crazy, and he yelled outside the city: "Xu You, you villain, you trust you so much in vain, you dare to betray me, you don't want to die!" ”

Xu You, who was outside the city, heard his shout, turned his horse and looked at the city, and said coldly: "Yuan Tan, I Xu You originally thought that you were a generation of male masters, so I wanted to assist you, who thought that you were a waste of foreign power, I have tried my best to assist you, it is you who are too incompetent, so you have fallen into such a field, I Xu You is a generation of strategists, how can I be martyred for such a mediocre lord as you, you can do it yourself." ”

With that, Xu Yu turned around and galloped away without looking back.

Xu You's parting words, words like knives, cut Yuan Tan in pain, and shouted at the bottom of the rest: "Give me an arrow, shoot that traitor, shoot him to death!" ”

The left and right crossbowmen were busy bending their bows and firing arrows, but Xu You fled quickly, rushing before the rain of arrows and escaping into the night.

Looking at Xu Yu who fled, looking at the people who rebelled angrily, and looking at the chaotic front line of the south gate, Yuan Tan was already so angry that he was full of anger, dizzy, and completely lost his sense of proportion.

……

In the south of Liyang City, the potter stood with a horizontal sword, staring at the line of the south gate of Liyang with cold eyes.

Tens of thousands of soldiers of the Liang army have been lined up for a long time, holding their swords and guns tightly, and standing quietly in the cold night.

At night, suddenly, the south gate was on fire, and the sound of killing shook the sky, fighting and fighting together, and suddenly it started.

The potter stared into the distance, and by the light of the raging fire, he vaguely saw that the city gate had been opened, the drawbridge had been cut off, and countless figures were fighting in and out of the city.

Civil strife in enemy forces?

The soldiers of the Liang army on the left and right were all shocked, and in an instant, the faces of all the soldiers were occupied by surprise.

"Is this the power of people and visions......" The potter exhaled, a smile of relief appeared on his young face.

This person and the vision are the people in Liyang City, who burst out of the will to survive in the darkness and rebel against Yuan Tan's brutal rule.

Now the city gate has become a mess, and the distinction between people and visions has worked.

Just as the potter was about to give the order to attack and break through the enemy's city, several horsemen and horses galloped forward, and a moment later, the sentry escorted a down-and-out scribe to him.

"Xu Yu meets Liang Gong." When Xu Yu saw the potter, he immediately bowed to the ground.

Xu You, it turned out that this guy took advantage of the chaos to defect.

The potter really didn't have a good impression of this Xu You.

In the past history, it was he who betrayed Yuan Shao at the most critical moment, causing Yuan Shao to be defeated. After he helped Cao Cao capture Yecheng, he was blind and arrogant, empty-sighted, and was killed.

In reality, this person gave advice to Yuan Tan, and he tried to harm himself several times, and he also had a place on the list of people to be killed by the potter.

Right now, Liyang is in civil strife, and the city is only broken in the past, but I didn't expect this guy to betray Yuan Tan at the last moment and come to join him.

This guy really knows the times......

"Xu You, if I'm not mistaken, you should be Yuan Tan's most trusted strategist, why didn't others betray him yet, so you betrayed him first?" The potter asked coldly.

Xu You's cold red face suddenly swept a trace of embarrassment, but he was already prepared in his heart, and said busily: "The so-called good minister chooses wood to perch, and when he assisted Yuan Tan, he mistakenly thought that he and Yuan Shao were both the heroes of the world, but he didn't expect that his father and son were both stubborn and self-serving, and only Liang Gong was the true dragon of Tiance who ended this troubled world. ”

Xu You can be regarded as a sycophant of the potter, thinking that the potter will also eat this set like Yuan Shao.

But he didn't want to, the potter just smiled coldly, and the corners of his mouth raised sarcastically, "Xu You, your sycophant is really loud, then why didn't you come to defect earlier, but you came to defect when the civil strife in Liyang City was about to break, and my father felt that you were cornered, so I came to defect as a last resort." ”

"This ......" Xu You's face became more and more embarrassed, but he sighed bitterly, "You actually wanted to come to Liang Gong early in the morning, but Yuan Tan's guard of the city was extremely strict, and You never seized the opportunity, only when those people were rioting, did you have the opportunity to escape and join Liang Gong." ”

In the face of Xu You's sophistry, the potter's eagle eyes suddenly froze, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Xu You, do you think that this father is as stupid as Yuan Tan, and it is very easy to be deceived by your clever tongue!" ”

Xu You trembled with fright, and a chill immediately surged on his back.

The potter glared at him and coldly reprimanded: "This duke's army has surrounded Liyang for more than five months, as Yuan Tan's most trusted strategist, how can you not have the opportunity to come to join in five months, if you are not at the end of the road, in order to save your life, how can you come to join this duke." ”

Xu You was frightened and ashamed, and he was so panicked that he didn't know what to do for a while.

"As a strategist of Yuan Shao, you don't put the interests of the Yuan family first, but put the interests of your Ruyingshi people first, if it weren't for the endless infighting between you and Feng Ji's group of strategists, how could Yuan Shao be defeated in the battle of Guandu, and why would Liyang City be surrounded by this father, like you, a person who doesn't know public or private, do you think this association will take you in!"

The potter's eyes gathered, and the murderous intent appeared in his eyes, and he took a step forward, and the war knife in his hand was slowly raised.

Xu You's face changed in shock, and the potter raised his knife in front of him, but he wanted to kill himself, and he shouted anxiously: "Liang Gong spare his life, you know that it is wrong, please Liang Gong give me a chance to mend my ways." ”

"People like you are hopeless, go and die in peace." The potter was cold to the end, without a trace of mercy.

"Potter, I am a famous man in the world, I have an immortal talent, you want to dominate the world, how dare you kill a wise man like me......"

"Lao Tzu has talents under his command, and he doesn't need a villain like you!"

In the loud cheers, the war knife in the potter's hand slashed down wildly, and in the splash of bright light, Xu Youren's head fell to the ground.

Blood splattered red in the snow, the killing intent of the soldiers of the three armies had been ignited, and the pottery merchant pointed at the enemy city with his sword, shouting: "Siege May, the opportunity to break the city has finally arrived, give me to kill Liyang, kill all the stubborn enemies!" ”
