In fact, as Zhao Qian expected, Qiao Rui surrendered.

Since seeing the heads of Zhang Lin and Yang Feng, Qiao Rui no longer has any hope, although he is not clear about the specific situation of Runan, but he understands that the general trend has gone.

Before, Qiao Rui was also worried that her family, especially her two daughters, would bring disaster to them if she surrendered.

But later, Qiao Rui also figured out that his family was not in Shouchun, but lived in Anhui City, where the guard was Liu Xun, who was good friends with Liu Xun on weekdays, and he must have been fooled around.

Moreover, Qiao Rui is usually a well-known good person, and I believe that someone will help him take care of the family.

For Qiao Rui's surrender, Zhao Qian was naturally very welcome, and entertained Qiao Rui with delicious food and drink, but he didn't know, and thought that the two were best friends after a long absence.

After Qiao Rui surrendered, Zhao Qian no longer hesitated and went directly to recruit Runan City, but as a result, except for Liu Ran, the rest of the generals in the city directly gave up resistance.

A Liu Ran naturally couldn't set off much of a storm, Runan quickly calmed down, and Zhao Qian's troops pointed directly at Huaiyang Shouchun!

Yuan Shu heard that Runan had been lost in Shouchun, and Qiao Rui surrendered, his heart was shocked, he screamed, and fainted on the spot.

After waking up, Yuan Shu was stunned and shouted: "Qiao Rui Pifu, I am very angry that I have mistaken my big matter, and I ordered his family members, regardless of men, women, old and young, to be executed!" ”

After hearing this, the subordinates looked at each other, Qiao Rui Suri was friendly with them, and they really didn't want to carry out this order.

It's just that now Yuan Shu is angry, and no one dares to touch this moldy head.

Changshi Yuan called a sergeant, and after a while, the sergeant hurriedly got on his horse and left the city, and the destination was Wancheng.

Another general, General Yang, stepped forward and said: "Lord, now that Zhao Qian's troops are pressing the border, Shouchun is in danger, it is better to send a letter and send a letter to Jiangdong Sun Ce to help." ”

Since the war with Liu Biao, Sun Ce has gradually withdrawn from Jingzhou, developed his strength and recruited talents in the Jiangdong area, and now he is also a big force.

Yuan Shu has always regarded the Sun family as his general, and he has been like this since Sun Jian, so he didn't care about Sun Ce's expansion.

Now facing the pressure of Zhao Qian, after being reminded by General Yang, Yuan Shufang remembered Sun Ce's number one person.

Sun Ce's ability, Yuan Shu knows, not much worse than Sun Jian, if Sun Ce can lead his troops to come, it is estimated that he will be able to resist Zhao Qian's troops.

Yuan Shu hurriedly waved his hand and said to General Yang: "Hurry up and repair the book, let Sun Bofu come to help!" ”

General Yang received the order and hurriedly repaired a letter and sent it to Jiangdong to present Sun Ce in person.

Sun Ce was furious when he saw this, reprimanded the envoy, drove him out, and then anxious his subordinates to discuss countermeasures.

"Back then, I avenged my father and fought with Liu Biao, I originally thought that Yuan Shuken would send troops to help, who would have thought that it was just Chen Bing's border, watching from the wall, and now he is trapped by Zhao Qian, but he came to beg me, which is very ridiculous!" Sun Ce said.

Han Dang stepped forward and said, "Ignore him." ”

At this moment, someone came to report: "Lord Qi, the general has sent an envoy to see you." ”

"General? Could it be Zhao Qian? Sun Ce frowned, "Hurry up, please." ”

After a while, Zhao Qian's envoy came to the hall, and after seeing the ceremony, he also handed a letter to Sun Ce, Sun Ce opened it, thought for a moment, and said to the envoy: "Please come to the embassy to rest, I order people to be treated." ”

The messenger did not ink, but returned to the inn.

After Zhao Qian's envoy left, Sun Ce said: "Zhao Qian also asks me to send troops to help and crusade against Yuan Shu!" ”

"Willing to be a pioneer!" Han Dang immediately replied in a loud voice.

"I would like to be a pioneer!" Huang Gai was not to be outdone.

Sun Ce pondered for a moment, looked at Zhang Zhao on the side and asked, "Mr. Zibu, what do you think?" ”

The old god Zhang Zhao was there, and he said unhurriedly: "Although Yuan Shu is newly defeated, his troops are full of food, and he cannot underestimate the enemy. It is better to send a letter to Zhao Qian and persuade him to go east, and we will respond later, so that the two armies will help each other, and Yuan Shu will be defeated! ”

After Sun Ce heard this, he thought so, so he ordered the army to defend the Jiangkou to prevent Yuan Shu from attacking angrily, and the other half sent a letter to Zhao Qian, Chen Da's own intention.

Shouchun Yuan Shu did not wait for Sun Ce's reinforcements, but was humiliated by him, and was furious, and he was about to raise an army to fight.

General Yang, Yan Xiang and others persuaded him to stop, and Yuan Shu also realized that the biggest enemy at this time was Zhao Qian.

It's just that the 150,000 army was crippled and incorporated by Zhao Qian, and there are less than 50,000 people in Shouchun City, how can they resist it?

General Yang said: "Now Shouchun has experienced floods and droughts, and the people are short of food; The previous mobilization of troops was another disturbance of people's livelihood and grievances. Zhao Qian's army, the army of tigers and wolves, is difficult to resist. It's better to stick to it, and when the other soldier runs out of food, there will inevitably be changes. ”

Yuan Shu was helpless after hearing this, and asked Yan Xiang and Yuan Lian again, both of whom agreed with General Yang's strategy, so Yuan Shuwo couldn't hold out in Shouchun.

Zhao Qian had already approached the city, and after attacking it a few times, it had little effect, so he collected his troops and set up camp.

Zhang Fei was very annoyed and said, "Then Sun Ce is too, he obviously said that he would help us, but he just didn't move, hum!" ”

"When have I ever relied on others?" Zhao Qian said soothingly.

Xun You also sighed and said, "Lord, if you can't capture it in a hurry, it's better to collect your troops and return to Jinyang." ”

"Huh?" Zhao Qian frowned and looked at Xun You inquiringly.

"There is not much food and grass for the army, and it has taken a lot of time, in case Yuan Shao has any movement, it will be very bad." Xun You said worriedly.

Zhao Qian nodded and said, "Gongda is right, how many days of grain and grass are there enough now?" ”

"Half Moon!" Tai Shi Ci replied.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Qian said: "Chuan Wu general, within five days, let go of eating, and have enough to eat!" ”

"This?" Xun You looked at Zhao Qian with inquiring eyes.

However, Zhao Qian did not answer, and after giving Xun You a meaningful smile, he announced the dismissal of the meeting, and each of them would return to the account, and the book would not be detailed.

Five days later, Zhao Qian gave an order, gathered a large army, and ordered: "Since five days, I have eaten enough, and now it is time to contribute, and the grain and grass have been chime, if the city cannot be broken within three days, they will be killed!" ”

Zhao Qian personally put on the cloth, supervised the army to move soil and stones, filled in the trenches and plugged the trenches, and took the lead.

Two generals who surrendered avoided and returned, Zhao Qian was furious, stabbed his spear under the city, and personally dismounted to fill the pit.

When the soldiers saw Zhao Qian like this, all the soldiers and soldiers of all sizes stepped forward bravely, and the military prestige was greatly boosted, and the defenders of the city gradually could not resist.

Finally, a sergeant attacked the city, cut the lock and locked it, and the team of men and horses rushed in and killed Yuan Shu's mansion.

However, Yuan Shu absconded with his family as early as when the city was broken, and Liu Xie escaped with him.

It's just that Liu Xieluan's driving speed is quite slow, and I'm afraid that sooner or later he will be caught up by Zhao Qian.
