Knowing that the country was going to be destroyed, he was worried that he would be humiliated, so he killed his own women and children in advance, which is the standard configuration of ancient and modern times, and it is not surprising at all.

In a sense, this is also one of the risks that the royal family needs to take.

Before the Northern and Southern Dynasties, if it was the royal family of the orthodox dynasty, it was possible to receive certain preferential treatment, which was to show the tolerance and generosity of the new dynasty, as well as the orthodoxy of the throne, one of the three ke.

It's a pity that Yuan Shu is not the founder of the orthodox dynasty, just a rebel, a fool who wants to be an emperor and wants to go crazy.

His close people will not be pardoned and will be beheaded altogether.

In this regard, Yuan Shu is still a bit of a brain, knowing that he will relieve the pain of his family, if these people are still alive, they will inevitably be punished unimaginably before being executed.

It is not an exaggeration to commit such a great crime and be wiped out of the clan, and if it is completely killed, there is no place to reason.

If they all die by themselves, who can they blame?

After Cao Xiu captured Yuan Shu, he sent people to watch over Yuan Shu in the palace, and then led the soldiers to guard outside.

He tied up the women he had captured before and made them kneel at the gate of the palace, waiting to greet Guo Peng, showing his merits by the way.

Cao Xiu stood at the gate of the palace with a smug face, listening to the increasingly fierce shouts and killings in his ears, and his face was full of smug smiles.

After a while, Cao Hong rushed over with a roar, his face was full of blood, his eyes were red, and he rushed to the front to see Cao Xiu standing here with a calm face, and he was immediately annoyed.

With the last glimmer of hope, Cao Hong stepped forward to ask Cao Xiu.

"Wen Lie, Yuan Highway ......"

"It's inside, I've been caught, Captain Cao, I'm sorry, I've already won the first place!"

Cao Xiu looked at his uncle with a smug face.

"Alas!"

Cao Hong's face was full of depression, and in the face of his nephew, he was really embarrassed to grab credit from his nephew, but he was going crazy when he wanted to make meritorious contributions, walking around, and he was so uncomfortable that he almost wanted to commit suicide.

Cao Xiu really couldn't stand Cao Hong's appearance, thinking that he was his uncle after all, so he had to offer to give Cao Hong half of the credit, saying that it was the first credit that the two of them got together.

"Really? Wen Lie, you don't lie to me? ”

"Of course it's true, uncle, how could I lie to my uncle?"

Cao Xiu's face was sincere.

Cao Hong's tears were about to fall, he really wanted the credit so much, and now he gave him half of the credit for capturing Yuan Shu, and he suddenly saw the hope of reinstatement of the official.

Not long after, Xiahou Yuan also rushed over with his troops, and when he saw Cao Hong and Cao Xiu's uncle and nephew standing at the gate of the palace like two door gods, he suddenly felt a sigh in his heart, knowing that he was lagging behind.

"Miaocai, you're late! Yuan Highway has been caught by me and Wen Lie! Hahahahaha! ”

Cao Hong laughed arrogantly, and immediately choked Xiahou Yuan with anger.

So desperately killed a large group of routs and rushed over, but they couldn't even drink the soup!

Xiahou Yuan is so depressed.

Then Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Yu Ban, Zhu Ling and other generals also killed together, but they all failed to grab the first credit, there is only one Yuan Shu, and it will not be cut into dozens of parts and distributed to everyone, right?

It's not that no one has thought about it like this, for example, Cao Chun, who came over later, secretly found Cao Xiu, and told him about the past when Xiang Yu's body was divided into five equal parts, expressing his expectations, thinking of cutting Yuan Shu into five parts, and sharing a little more credit to everyone.

Then Cao Chun was driven away by Cao Hong.

"So greedy for merit at a young age! I don't know who to learn! Young people, give me a good experience! The days are still long, and when there is meritorious service in the future, don't be in a hurry! Do you understand? ”

Cao Hongyi reprimanded Cao Chun with words, and Cao Chun rolled his eyes angrily.

Zhao Yun was lucky, and on the way into the city, he bumped into Lei Bo, the guard of the imperial city, and a group of officials who were sneaking outside, and stabbed Lei Bo to death with a spear, and then captured five pseudo-Chen officials and their families.

Then Cao Ren took Gao Ran and Guan Yu to catch a group of Yuan clan people, more than 50 men and women, and the three of them happily tied up these more than 50 people, intending to dedicate them to Guo Peng.

This is the end of the Imperial City Raiders battle.

There is no doubt that the biggest credit is Cao Xiu, Cao Hong has made up a credit with a dead face, and it can be regarded as Cao Xiu who can't look at it and give it to him.

Of course, Guo Peng would not compete with the generals, and finally entered the city, and the stars slowly entered Yuan Shu's imperial city like the moon.

At that time, it was already early in the morning, and the sky was not yet fully bright, but Yuan Shu's imperial city was illuminated by countless torches, and it was not dark at all.

Guo Peng came to the palace where Yuan Shu was imprisoned, which was already full of generals, Cao Hong and Cao Xiu saw Guo Peng's banner, and hurriedly ran over, saluting in front of Guo Peng's war horse, with joy on their faces.

"General! With the concerted efforts of his subordinates and Cao Duwei, they have conquered the Imperial City Palace of Yuan Highway and captured Yuan Highway alive! ”

Cao Xiu proudly announced his achievements, which made Guo Peng overjoyed, and praised Cao Xiu and Cao Hong repeatedly.

"Wen Lie and Zilian have done a good job, you are the first to make this battle! I'll definitely take credit for you! ”

Then, Guo Peng praised the rest of the generals who had made gains, and also encouraged the generals who had not been gained, so that they could make persistent efforts and have more opportunities to make contributions in the future.

"I know you all want credit, but the credit is earned by yourself, not robbed, sometimes it depends on luck, it's always yours if it's yours, it's not yours, you robbed it, but I want to punish you! Whoever hurts the harmony for the sake of merit, I won't indulge, hear clearly? ”

Guo Peng shouted.

"Yes!"

The generals promised one after another, and they did not dare to compete anymore.

Once the pseudo-Chen was destroyed, Guo Peng's power and prestige were far greater than those of those years.

From this day on, everything will be different from the past.

Riding his horse to the gate of the palace, Guo Peng turned over and dismounted, tidied up his clothes, straightened his saber, looked around at the fiery gaze around him, and smiled.

"The whole army obeys the order! Occupy the whole city of Shouchun, stabilize the order in the city in the shortest possible time, no indiscriminate killing, no looting, no humiliation of women, as always, if there is a offender, military law will be engaged! ”

"Yes!"

The response came from near and far, extremely loud and far.

"Hahahaha!"

Guo Peng laughed, and then took the lead in walking to Yuan Shu's inner palace, followed by the strategists and generals, majestic and uniform.

"Wen Lie, what's the matter with these women? Why are they all tied up and kneeling? ”

Guo Peng walked all the way, and saw many women kneeling on both sides of the walk, so he asked Cao Xiu.

"General Hui, most of these women are Yuan Shu's palace ladies, and there may even be some nobles, and their subordinates don't dare to make decisions without taking matters into their own hands, so they all tied them up without hurting their lives."

"I see."

Guo Peng looked at Cao Xiu and nodded: "You did the right thing, don't kill the people you shouldn't kill, let's march and kill enough people, and there are enough people who have died over the years, if you can live one of them, you can live one of them, these women are interrogated, if it's just an ordinary palace lady, let her go elsewhere, or go to a nursing home, if it's Yuan Shu's woman, talk about it separately." ”

"Yes!"

Guo Peng then quickened his pace, walked through the long corridor, and came to the main hall where Yuan Shu was being held.

Guo Peng saw Yuan Shu who was paralyzed on the ground half-dead by Wuhua at a glance, as well as a row of corpses beside him.

There are men and women, big and small, and it seems that they are Yuan Shu's family.

Guo Peng set his eyes on Yuan Shu again.
