Chapter 574: Yuan Shaozhong
The Fu family arranged by Xun Yu set off that night, they put on Cao Jun's military uniforms, and were escorted by Cao Cao from their own territory all the way to Yuan Shaojun's territory.
Soon this group of people was discovered by Yuan Shaojun's scouts.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me, it's your own people, your own people, I want to see the general, I have something important to say!" The name of this Fu Wan's family is Chang, and he is a head of the Fu family's branch, and he is considered to be Fu Wan's brother, in his opinion, Fu Wan is not worthy of being the head of the Fu family at all, if he is not a descendant, I am afraid that this position is his.
"Your own people, have something important to tell?" Yuan Shaojun, who had already pulled the bowstring and was about to shoot, put down his war bow.
"Who sent you?" A man who looked like a general stepped forward and asked Fu Chang.
"Who are you?" Seeing that Yuan Shaojun's scouts over there had put down their weapons, this Fu Chang's courage also increased. "What I want to see is that the lord of your family is General Yuan, tell you that you have become the master?"
"Daring, do you know who this is? This is our eldest son. The subordinate on the side of the school stepped forward and reprimanded.
"The eldest prince?" Fu Chang was taken aback: "You are General Yuan Tan, the eldest son of General Yuan?" ”
"Is it possible that there is a second Yuan Tan?" This general is really Yuan Tan, Yuan Tan performed well on the battlefield in the first few times, so Yuan Shao gave more military power to Yuan Tan, including now inspecting the entire Yuan Shao army camp.
"It turned out to be Yuan Dagongzi!" Fu Chang immediately changed his face: "Grand Master Yuan, I came to deliver a letter to the general on the order of the head of my family." ”
"Your head of the house?" Yuan Tan didn't understand, "Who is the head of your family?" ”
"It's the hussar general who has finished ambushing."
"Hussar general?" Yuan Tan smiled contemptuously, Cao Cao's official Yuan Tan really didn't pay attention to it, "Wait, are you talking about Fu Wan?" But the ambush battle around the Han Emperor? ”
"Exactly!" Fu Chang nodded.
"The head of our family has already made an agreement with the general, and now we are waiting for the general's soldiers and horses to arrive!"
"Okay, you go with me to my father's tent!" Yuan Tan once overheard Xun Cen talking to his father about this Fu Wan thing, this Fu Wan is the imperial party, and now Fu Wan sent someone to contact his father Yuan Shao, so it means that this Fu Wan has a different heart, and if Xu Du City is broken, won't this also have his Yuan Tan's credit?
So immediately, Yuan Tan took Fu Chang to see Yuan Shao.
It was getting late, Yuan Shao came out of sleep, Yuan Shao was very annoyed, because except for urgent matters, he didn't need anyone to come and disturb him, even his son had to be reprimanded.
But after seeing Fu Chang, Yuan Shao immediately changed his face, not only praised Yuan Tan, but also asked people to pass on the order and exchange Xun Cen.
Fu Chang handed over the letter to Yuan Shao on the table, which was written in great detail about Fu Wan's words, when to raise troops, where Yuan Shao would answer, etc., very detailed.
"Good, good, good! General Fu Wan is really the righteous man of the country, Cao Cao's old thief is called Han Chen, he is really a Han thief, and now General Fu Wan is in chaos, anyway, this is the blessing of my Han world, with the help of General Fu Wan, so Cao thief will be destroyed! Yuan Shao said.
Xun Cen has not yet arrived, Yuan Shang and Yuan Sangongzi are on the side, looking at this person brought in by Yuan Tan, and his father is also praising Yuan Tan and can't help but sourly, "Father, this person is not Cao Cao's spy, if it is Cao Cao's spy, if our army follows what the letter says, isn't it Cao Cao's fool?" In my opinion, it is better to drag this person out for a good interrogation before making a decision! "Yuan Shanggongzi is rare that the blind cat touched the dead mouse and told the truth of the matter.
"Father, I thought it was eight points true!" Yuan Tan didn't dare to say full, and could only say eight points.
"There's nothing wrong with being cautious!" Yuan Shao said to Fu Chang on the side, "I can't completely trust you because of such a letter, and I can't press you down for interrogation because of this, but I really need someone to come to identify the truth and falsehood, if it is true, you must be rewarded!" ”
"Thank you, General, thank you!" Fu Chang's face was full of joy, and only he knew what he thought in his heart.
Xun Cen has not yet arrived, Yuan Shao also finished reading the letter, and then looked at the eldest son who slowly made him look pleasing to the eye, and began to praise again, the more he listened to Yuan Shang, the more uncomfortable he became, if it was normal, he was being praised by his father.
finally got through to the outside, and the people outside reported, "Back to the lord, Mr. Xun Cen has arrived!" ”
"Call him in!" Yuan Shao waved his hand and said to the people under his hands.
"Yes!" Soon Xun Cen stepped into the middle door.
As soon as Xun Cen entered, Fu Chang over there spoke first, "Brother Xun Cen!" Brother Xun Cen! ”
"Huh?" Xun Cen didn't react at first.
"Brother Xun Cen, it's me, Fu Chang! You and I used to drink and talk happily, but then the world was in chaos, brother, you went to Hebei, so there was no contact! Fu Chang stepped forward and pulled the relationship with Xun Cen.
"Fu Chang?" Xun Cen slowly had an image, indeed he knew such a person, that is, a branch of the Fu family, although this person is not a descendant, but he is very talented, and being able to drink with Xun Cen back then is enough to see this person's ability.
"Fu Chang, why are you here?" Xun Cen first asked this question, but then he reacted, and instead looked at the lord over there, Yuan Shao, "Lord, isn't there news from General Fu Wan?" ”
"Exactly!" Seeing that Xun Cen and Fu Chang were reminiscing over there, Yuan Shao immediately laughed, because in this way, it could already be confirmed that this person was Fu Wan's family, and his identity was still Fu Wan's brother, which made Yuan Shao believe it even more.
Yuan Shao immediately ordered someone to send gold, silver and jewelry to reward this Fu Chang, and originally prepared to feast this person.
However, Fu Chang spoke, "General, Brother Xun Cen, this matter is important, you must not make mistakes, and it is not too late to celebrate after winning Xu Du!" "Just kidding, he Fu Chang is not really the one who contacted Yuan Shao, but he is here to pit you, if you drink too much and leave late, you won't be able to leave.
"Good, good! If you do this, you will be rewarded! Yuan Shao lowered his crotch to Haikou again, and let him also take what Yuan Shao explained to Fu Wan.
Fu Chang left, and Yuan Shao's army began to act.
The time agreed with Fu Wan was the third watch of the second day, this time Yuan Shao was very attentive, and it was not until the evening that he announced his preparations for action, and at the same time, Yuan Shao was about to quarrel about who was in charge.
In order to be out of sight and out of mind, Yuan Shao was ready to personally command an army of 20,000 to meet the ambush.
"Lord, how can you go in person!" Even Xun Cen thought that this matter was inseparable, but he was also shocked when he heard that Yuan Shao was going to go in person.
"If I don't go, who will go?" Yuan Shao shook his head, Zhang Nan and Gao Gan over there made it clear that they didn't dare to get involved in the battle between Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, so they didn't dare to open their mouths, what about Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang? It was not good for him Yuan Shao to let anyone go, so Yuan Shao could only go by himself.
"Well, no more words! If I go like this, the Chinese army camp will teach Tan Er and Guo Tu, you two will help me stick to the Chinese army, and the front army will teach Shang Er, once you see my banner, you can lead the army to meet me and me to fight into the city of Xudu! After all, Yuan Shao still favored Yuan Shang a little, making Yuan Shang closer to Xu Ducheng.
Yuan Tan also began to feel uncomfortable in his heart, no matter how good he was, his father still favored his youngest son Yuan Shang.
Something called Nameless Fire rippled in Yuan Tan's heart.
Xun Cen knew that he couldn't dissuade Yuan Shao from going in person, so he could only retreat and say to Yuan Shao that he would go with Yuan Shao to answer Fu Wan.
When it was dark and the wind was high and the moon was killing people and setting fires, Yuan Shaoda's army set off, all the soldiers and horses were fully equipped, in order to prevent the war horses from making movements, so the mouths and feet of the war horses were blocked, and the soldiers were also afraid of making movements, so everyone except the general shouted a piece of cloth in their mouths. This is a sneak attack on the city gate, a sneak attack on Xudu, so it is inevitable that it will not be possible to swagger forward, time is slowly passing, they and the city of Fu Wan agreed that the time is the third watch of the night, one in the city to open the city gate, one outside the city to attack the city gate in response.
Yuan Shao looked at the few lights flickering on the Xudu City over there, and there were not many soldiers and horses defending the city, and immediately felt a big sigh in his heart, thinking that everything should be ready like this, only the east wind is owed.
Just wait for Fu Wan to open the city gate and attack the city of Xu in one fell swoop.
Xun Cen was on the side, but he didn't have such a good mood as Yuan Shao, he looked at the sky, it was really dark and windy, and when he was killing people and setting fire at night, Xun Cen, who didn't support Yuan Shao coming in person, became more and more uncomfortable in his heart.
Under such a circumstance, Xun Cen said to Yuan Shao, "Lord, let's send some scouts to spy on it!" ”
"Send scouts to spy on them? Xun Cen, are you crazy? Yuan Shao immediately scolded, "We didn't come to attack Xudu, we came to join forces with the outside world, and now we send scouts, isn't this looking for exposure by ourselves?" ”
"Me!" Xun Cen didn't understand this truth, but how to say it, his inner turmoil and sending scouts to make him feel a little more stable in his heart, was scolded by Yuan Shao and retreated, Xun Cen had no way to send scouts but Amitabha Buddha to pray to the Buddhas of the sky to bless them Hebei Army this time.
The time for the third watch was soon coming, and Yuan Shao's Hebei army fought all year round, so he naturally had an accurate calculation of time.
"It's time for the lord!" A 10,000-strong general on the side stepped forward and said to Yuan Shao.
"Good!" Yuan Shao nodded, and suddenly the city was full of fire.
"Kill, kill, kill!" Above the city, there was a terrifying shout of killing.
"Haha!" Yuan Shao perked up all of a sudden, Yuan Shao yawned a little when he was waiting before, but now he was in good spirits when he heard the shouts of killing in the city.
"It worked, it worked, our strategy worked! Haha, come on, come on, come with me, break through Xudu City! Yuan Shao shouted loudly.
The soldiers and horses under his command immediately launched an attack on the city of Xu Du under the command of Yuan Shao
Yuan Shao's 20,000 soldiers and horses were divided into three units by Yuan Shao, one attacked the city gate, one contacted the army in the rear, and the other attacked the city to meet Fu Wan and others.
Xun Cen also heard the shouting and killing sound above the city, saying that it was false to say that he was unhappy, Xun Cen was also excited, because he knew that once it was really as discussed before, then this time they would really make a lot of money, Cao Cao was the main force outside the city, and there were only twenty or thirty thousand horses in the city, not only that, Xun Cen had observed, Cao Cao's grain and grass transportation was sent from the city of Xudu, that is to say, taking Xu Du not only destroyed Cao Cao's lair, but also removed Cao Cao's grain and grass supply to him. Without food and grass, the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses outside the city will only be vulnerable. Just like the Hebei Army that did not have a black nest at the beginning.
Xun Cen was getting closer and closer to the battlefield, and Xu Ducheng was close at hand, and countless Yuan Shaojun's soldiers rushed towards Xu Ducheng.
"Boom, boom!" Over there, the originally high suspension bridge above Xudu was suddenly lowered, and the city gate of Xudu was also pushed open from the inside.
Xun Cen vaguely saw the fighting in the capital.
Xudu City is like this, how can Yuan Shao endure it, and soon the Hebei army rushed into Xudu City, and the 20,000 troops behind followed one after another.
"Cao Cao traitor, you also have today you are waiting for me, you are waiting for me, hahahaha!" Yuan Shao couldn't wait to see Cao Cao's face after learning that Xu Du had been defeated.
"Kill, take Xu Capital City, everyone will be rewarded with a thousand dollars, and each will be promoted to one level!"
There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and countless Yuan Shao's Hebei army struggled to kill those in the city.
"Fu Wan really succeeded, we succeeded!" Xun Cen is also happy, the Hebei army has lost to Cao Cao not once or twice, this time it is finally going to kill Lao Cao.
Seeing that Xun Cen was about to follow Yuan Shao into the city, he still needed Xun Cen to do the matter of appeasing the Han Emperor and the civil and military officials.
Just when Xun Cen was still thinking about waiting for Yuan Shao to take Xu Du, destroy Cao Cao, and then swallow Yuan Yao's Huainan army, then he could establish himself as the emperor, and then his Xun family would inevitably rise.
"Youruo, Wenruo, you didn't expect it!" Xun Cen supported Yuan Shao, and no one was optimistic about Xun Cen at the beginning.
Just when Xun Cen and the others were about to enter the city.
That side dispelled Xun Cen's illusions.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack, there is an ambush, there is an ambush!" Hysterical shouts of killing came from the city.
"What?" Xun Cen was dumbfounded, Yuan Shao was also dumbfounded, both of them were stunned, and they didn't react for a while.
"Lord, Lord Xun Cen, it's not good in the city, there is an ambush in the city!" Finally killed a bloody general from the city and ran in front of Xun Cen and Yuan Shao, and after saying this, he fell to the ground at once,
It turned out that the soldiers and horses of Hebei had just entered the city and had not had time to take over the city defense, and they saw countless soldiers and horses killed from the houses and continents of Xudu City.
"God-damned Cao Cao traitor, jack, he actually has a jack!" Yuan Shao roared, the city gate that had been opened at the head of the capital suddenly fell a huge iron valve, this is the jack, once this thing falls, it is impossible to open it without half a day's effort.
And once this jack falls, it means that Yuan Shaojun, who had previously attacked Xudu City, suddenly became a turtle in the urn.
"Ahhh Countless screams spread from Xudu City, and Yuan Shao heard it heartbreaking.
"Cao Apu!" Yuan Shao suddenly saw an acquaintance above the city, wasn't that Cao Cao's old thief?
"Yuan Benchu!" Cao Cao also saw Yuan Shao. The two of them were far apart, and they shouldn't have been able to talk in the first place, but now they were both looking at each other, and they could know what the other was thinking and saying without words.
Cao Cao's meaning was all about drama, "Yuan Shao, Yuan Benchu, you are not my Cao Cao's opponent at all, you lost the battle of Guandu twice, and you still don't give up, and now you are here to die again!" ”
Compared with Cao Cao, the current Yuan Shao's hatred of Cao Cao is really to the bone, and he doesn't hit people in the face, this Cao Cao not only slapped his face, but also slapped Yuan Shao's left mouth to swell, and pulled Yuan Shao's right mouth over to fan, and opened the bow left and right.
"Cao A's hide from you to remember me, I will come back!" Although the 20,000 army was distressed to Yuan Shao, it was not so painful that it would break his muscles and bones.
"Kill, kill, kill!" Another way of soldiers and horses came out from the flanks.
"What!" At this moment, Yuan Shao was a little panicked, because the jack of Xu Ducheng had been put down, so the Cao army in the city did not harm him at all, but it was different outside the city, now Yuan Shao has a thousand-person team in his hands, but this is Cao Cao's tiger and leopard horseman.
"Kill!" Cao Cao naturally would not be confused, and immediately issued an order against Yuan Shao. "Pass on my military order, and those who get Yuan Shao's head will be rewarded with ten thousand households!"
Cao Jun, who was already angry with the Hebei Army, is crazy now, Wanhu Hou, this is not a virtual but a real one, the title is really difficult to divide, you see that Guan Erye is about to become a god in the end, and he is just a pavilion marquis, and now he has taken out the determination of Wanhu Hou to see Cao Cao.
The soldiers and horses of Yuan Shao's army in the city were gradually wiped out by Cao Cao, and 20,000 troops entered the city, killing more than 6,000 and more than 4,000 wounded, and the remaining 10,000 soldiers and horses also surrendered.
It's a pity that Cao Cao doesn't have the troops to guard them now, so the order he gave was to kill them all.
After dealing with the people in the city, the jack that had fallen heavily from the top of the city was also retracted, and the main force of Cao Cao's army in the city slowly killed the outside of the city.
"The prime minister has an order, and those who get Yuan Shao's head will be rewarded with ten thousand households!"
