Chapter 354: Yecheng's Scheme

"Don't worry, rest assured, how can Wei Qing disappoint you, disappoint the soldiers, and disappoint Your Majesty!" Wei Qing's face was full of confidence.

……

Looking at Wei Qing's distant back, Li Ling couldn't retract his gaze for a long time, and it wasn't until Wei Qing's figure disappeared from sight that Li Ling came back to his senses.

"Let's get started!" At the slightest command, thousands of people began to get busy, setting traps, cutting down trees, and carrying boulders......

night

Yecheng, a city that has become extremely prosperous because of Yuan Shao's existence, is shrouded in the vast night at this time.

Yecheng as Yuan Shao's base camp, although Yuan Shao had already taken his soldiers and horses to the north to deal with Liu Wei at this time, Yecheng still had an army of thousands of people guarding Yuan Shao's wife and children, as well as Yuan Shao's subordinates and families, at this time, whether it was Yuan Shao's subordinates or Yuan Shao's family members and the defenders of this city did not realize that the danger had come, they would never have thought that an army from Youzhou had already arrived in the city, of course, not only them were Yuan Shao, even if it was Cui Hao, Even Zhang Dingbian would not have thought of this.

"Are the soldiers ready?" Thousands of soldiers and horses are hiding here under the city, and Wei Qing is among them.

"All set!"

"Okay, you go from here to the north gate, that is, the east gate, wait for a stick of incense time when you get to the north gate, and then let the men and horses of the north gate attack the city, and when the north gate begins to attack the city, you go to the west gate in the same way, and finally go to the south gate and so on. Do you understand? Wei Qing stared at the soldier in front of him tightly, afraid that he hadn't heard clearly.

"Got it!"

"Okay, you go and prepare!" Wei Qing commanded.

After speaking, Wei Qing gave instructions for action.

After a while, dozens of soldiers took advantage of the night to go to the city tower, and a few of them carried two ladders to both sides, these two ladders were made by Wei Qingming on the road, and they were very simple and would be scrapped after two uses, not only he had it here, but the other four doors had this thing.

The dozens of soldiers quickly sneaked under the city walls by night.

They cooperated with each other to set up the ladder, and then some people began to climb up, because the ladder was extremely simple and crude, and it could not hold the weight of a few people at all, so they could only climb up one by one, but fortunately, the soldiers defending the city had already fallen into a deep sleep and did not notice it.

Soon someone went up to the city, and after cutting the throats of several Yuan soldiers who were sleeping nearby, they immediately came to the aid of their companions.

"Unexpectedly, the enemy didn't notice it at all, and there was not even a patrol team, as Your Majesty said, most of Yuan Shao's subordinates were wine bags and rice bags." Seeing that his own people easily climbed the city wall, Wei Qing was even more disdainful of Yuan Shao.

As Yuan Shao's place to settle down, the soldiers guarding the city were actually sleeping, no one was guarding, no one was patrolling.

"Click, click, click......"

Soon there was movement at the city gate, and several soldiers guarding the gate immediately began to push the gate, while the soldiers inside were pulling open.

"Quack, quack, quack......"

The gates were soon opened.

"Kill!" Wei Qing stood up instantly, drew his sword and shouted.

Thousands of soldiers, under the leadership of Wei Qing, entered the city.

The man who had delivered the order for Wei Qing also left.

……

Early in the morning, the battle in Yecheng was over.

Under the leadership of Wei Qing, the Han army has taken Yecheng with hundreds of casualties, most of the defenders have been killed, and the rest have fled and surrendered, and Yuan Shao's family has now been placed under house arrest by Wei Qing.

"How's it going?" Wei Qing asked his subordinates.

"The battle is over, the defenders in Yecheng have been completely defeated, Yuan Shao's wife and concubine, and children have all been imprisoned, waiting for the general's orders!"

"Very well, did anyone escape?" Wei Qing asked.

"After getting the general's order, I secretly spared the life of Yuan Xi, the second son of Yuan Shao, at this time, I am afraid that he has escaped from the range of Yecheng with his subordinates."

"Didn't let him see the clues!"

"Don't worry, general, your subordinates can guarantee this!" The soldier swore an oath.

"That's good! Yuan Xi, this kid is almost the most incompetent among Yuan Shao's sons, and he will definitely go to find Yuan Shao after he escapes. ”

After his subordinates left, Wei Qing stood at the head of the city and looked to the north, and made a firm oath, "Your Majesty, the last general will never let you down!" ”

……

A few miles away from Yecheng, a team of horses was galloping.

"Childe, what should we do now?" A man who looked like a general shouted to a young man next to him.

"What to do, how do I know what to do!" The young man roared.

"You protect Ben Gongzi and get out of here first!" Childe said again.

The horse team continued to gallop, and after two hours of galloping the horses were almost exhausted, the horse team finally stopped, and at this time they were more than a hundred miles away from Yecheng.

"Childe, this place must be safe, there are not many enemies, they don't dare to chase so far, now that the horses have lost their strength, it's time to take a break, and by the way, think about where to go next."

"Well, let them stop!" The young man finally thinks it is safe, and several times on the way others propose to stop, but Childe is worried that the pursuit has not stopped.

This son is Yuan Xi, the second son of Yuan Shao who escaped from Yecheng, different from the eldest son Yuan Tan and the third son Yuan Shang, Yuan Xi has a cowardly personality, can be mediocre, and is not treated by Yuan Shao, plus he has no military talent, so he was Yuan Shao in Yecheng, and if it weren't for Liu Wei's intervention, Zhen Mi would have become Yuan Xi's wife.

"Childe, drink some water!" The accompanying guard handed the kettle to Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi was also unkind, directly took the kettle and drank it in a big gulp.

"Childe, why don't we go to the lord, now the lord and mother are all in the hands of the enemy." The guard suggested.

Yuan Xi listened and stopped drinking water and thought about it.

"No, I can't go to my father, this is an opportunity, a chance to impress my father, my father has always looked down on me, if I wipe out the enemy army in Yecheng this time, my father will definitely pay attention to me, I must not let go of this opportunity." Yuan Xi said with an oath, his eyes revealing strong desire.

"But Son, where do we have soldiers and horses, do we depend on dozens of us."

"Humph! There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city, isn't it okay, the enemy army in Yecheng definitely does not exceed 5,000 soldiers and horses, and only 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses can be wiped out. Yuan Xi said disdainfully.

"The rebuke of the hill is very important, if something happens to the rebuke, the consequences are unimaginable, the soldiers and horses of the rebuke must not be reckless!"

"What is more important than mother, aunt, brother and sister, not to mention that there are 30,000 soldiers and horses in the rebuke, and this son can easily take Yecheng with these 30,000 soldiers and horses, and besides, where is the enemy in the vicinity of the rebuke, not to mention that this son will not take all of them away, leaving a few thousand people, it is enough to defend the city." What is your intention to obstruct this son one after another, are you Yuan Shang's person, um! Yuan Xi scolded.

"Childe is angry, his subordinates have followed Childe for many years, and his subordinates are loyal to Childe, heaven and earth can be learned, and subordinates are just worried about Childe! Since Childe decided to do so, his subordinates didn't dare to say more. The guard hurriedly explained.

"Hmph, even if you don't waste the trust of this son, I will spare you this time, if there is a next time, there will be no forgiveness!" Yuan Xi said in a deep voice.

"No!"

After resting for a while, Yuan Xi and the others immediately went in the direction of the Qiuqiu, but because of the escape path, Yuan Xi and the others did not meet Li Ling's men and horses.

A day later, Yuan Xi and the others finally came to the rebuke, and Yuan Xi finally finished speaking
