Chapter 262: The Death of the Strategist
The Cao army came back and defeated Yuan Tan's reinforcements in one fell swoop, and at this moment, the troops outside the city were basically scattered and became empty. And the Cao army did not attack the city, just evacuated, and left all the siege weapons, at this time to rebuild, I am afraid it will take some time.
Yuan Shang already regretted it at this time in the city, but he couldn't show it in front of his subordinates. He spread his hands and said to Feng Ji: "What should I do now?" ”
Feng Ji also had a bitter face, drooping his eyebrows, and couldn't think of a way.
The judge next to him said: "It's better to chase out and invite the eldest prince back." ”
Yuan Shang said: "Don't be kidding, how is this possible?" ”
The judge said: "Working hard is also a way." If you don't ask, the road will be broken. ”
Yuan Shang nodded and said, "Okay, that's the only way." ”
Feng Ji only said at this time: "This ...... The subordinates are willing to lead the troops to invite the eldest prince. ”
"You?" Yuan Shang looked at this advisor.
Feng Ji said: "It's all the fault of my subordinates that I have made the current situation, and my subordinates are willing to make meritorious contributions." ”
Yuan Shang nodded again. In fact, he also knew that Feng Ji let him succeed to the throne early, but it was just to adapt to the times and for his good, so in fact, he did not leave Feng Ji behind.
However, since he himself proposed to wear the crime and make meritorious service, Yuan Shang naturally agreed to him.
Feng Ji didn't say a word, and immediately rode out of the north gate with five or six and chased towards the east. Halfway through, he suddenly ordered a few of his men, saying, "You continue to face east, and I will look north." ”
Several knights couldn't help but wonder and asked, "Mr. Feng, how did you go north?" The Grand Prince's troops went to the plains. ”
Feng Ji said: "According to my understanding of the eldest prince, it is possible to go north." The art of war has clouds, the virtual is real, and the real is virtual. You don't understand. ”
Those stunned young people also believed it.
Got rid of a few people, Feng Ji Shi Shiran galloped north, and couldn't help humming in his mouth: "Lao Tzu doesn't want his wife and children in the city, he desperately went out of the city, he just didn't want to die with Yuan Shang'er." Do you still want me to go to see Yuan Tan being humiliated? ”
He hadn't run two miles before he suddenly got dusty in front of him, and a large number of people came. He hurriedly wanted to dodge, but he didn't want the other party to be in front of him in a moment.
"Oh? Chronicle? How did you end up here......"
Feng Ji took a look, but found that it was the second son, Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi met the main force of the people's army on the way back to Nanpi, so he went south to Yecheng together. Although the generals in the army felt that they should attack the plains, he still overrode the public opinion and went to Yecheng first.
Unexpectedly, halfway through, he met Feng Ji, who was off the list, so he stopped him.
Feng Ji's eyes turned around, and his heart was not good, he had not calculated this upright second son before, and he didn't know if he would hold a grudge, so he said: "Cao Cao's army attacked the city, and the third prince ordered me to come to the second son for help, and it happened to meet him halfway, which is really good luck." ”
"Oh?" Yuan Xi glanced at him twice and said, "Ask me for help?" ”
"Yes...... Oh, yes. Feng Ji felt that if he said this, the second son would not dare to touch himself, after all, he was just a messenger.
Yuan Xi asked, "How is the situation in the direction of Yecheng?" ”
Feng Ji said: "Not optimistic. ”
Yuan Xi asked again, "What about my eldest brother?" Did he arrive with his troops? ”
Feng Ji said: "When I arrived, I repelled the Cao army once, but I was defeated again immediately......"
Yuan Xi said: "What's the matter? ”
Feng Ji's voice suddenly froze, and he remembered the reason for Yuan Tan's defeat, but he couldn't say it. Could it be that he told Yuan Xi that it was because the brothers began to argue about who would be in charge again? At the beginning, Yuan Shangke agreed to give up his position and let Yuan Tan sit.
"Uh......"
Yuan Xi saw that he kept rolling his eyes, and couldn't help but show disgust, raised his hand and said, "Take this person down and cut it down." ”
Feng Ji was so frightened that he was so frightened that he said, "Second son, I am your father's advisor, how can there be any reason to cut me." The eldest prince was defeated because he had a dispute with the third son, and it has nothing to do with me. ”
Two sergeants came to him and set him up. Feng Ji is like a chicken, both legs are weak, and he can't stop swaying in the air.
Yuan Xi said: "Hmph, the army is fighting in Yecheng, and you have the face to escape by yourself?" What's the use of keeping a villain like you? Chopped! ”
Feng Ji immediately cried and was carried out, and a random scream came from him. This strategist who once helped Yuan Shao enter Yecheng died in the northeast of Yecheng, and blood was sprinkled on this land.
Yuan Xi immediately gathered the people around him, this time in addition to Gao Shun's troops, there was also Tian Yu's cavalry. The number is about a thousand, and the number is still not enough.
"Later, Gao Shun will stick to the periphery and be responsible for covering. Tian Yu waited outside the moat, ready to retreat at any time. Zilong and his personal guards followed me into the city, taking advantage of the moment when Yecheng City was broken. If you save someone, leave immediately, and don't stop too much. ”
Tian Feng, who came over together, said: "Why don't you take the opportunity to occupy Yecheng and replace it." Yecheng is a famous city in the world, if you can rebel against the soldiers and horses under the three princes, you may not be able to fight. ”
Yuan Xi said: "Morale is low, where can I fight?" It's going to drag us to death here. Yecheng is just a cage, don't be locked in it. ”
Zhao Yun asked, "Apart from Mrs. Zhen, who else are we going to bring out?" ”
Yuan Xi said: "Let's act when the opportunity arises!" The main targets are Zhen Ji and Yuan Fu. He knew that Gao Mian had hidden some people in Yecheng, and since Zhen Ji was placed under house arrest by Mrs. Liu, Diao Chan had secretly left Yuan's Mansion and hid with Gao Mian. He patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Diao Chan has been hidden, and it will be fine in a short time." ”
Zhao Yun immediately said embarrassedly: "The subordinate does not refer to Diao Chan, but the brother of Mrs. Liu or the second son." ”
"Mrs. Liu?"
Although Mrs. Liu is Yuan Xi's real mother-in-law, her heart is always towards her youngest son Yuan Shang, and this time she also assisted in putting Zhen Ji under house arrest. To be honest, Yuan Xi didn't have much affection for this fierce-looking woman. However, when he thought of the treatment that Yuan Shao's wife would suffer if she fell into the hands of Cao Cao, he still softened his heart and said, "If you can save it, you can save it, don't affect our plan." ”
At the same time, the west gate of Yecheng was already in chaos, and the city gate was opened inexplicably, and then Cao Jun rushed in as if premeditated, provoking Yuan Jun to fight back, but many times failed to counter-rob, and Yuan's soldiers scattered as birds and beasts.
A middle-aged man who looked like a scribe crossed the city gate on a horse, looked at the interior of Yecheng, and laughed heartily, which provoked the Cao soldiers passing around to look back curiously.
The scribe said in a loud voice: "Cao Apu, Cao Apu, without my permission, can you enter this gate?" ”
When he saw that the crowd was looking at him, he said to the soldiers, "Ah, you rough people, what do you see?" Without my dedication to Guandu and the burning of the Wuchao granary, would you be able to stand here today? ”
This person is Xu You, after his family was tried and detained, he simply voted for Cao Cao, and now he has returned to his hometown, and he has a lot of emotion for a while. As for his family, naturally, they had already been killed by Yuan Shang.
Sergeant Cao looked at the crazy Xu You, shook his head, and continued to walk forward.
Xu You seemed to be afraid that others would not know his merits, so he stood at the gate of the city and said, "Cao Apu can take Yecheng without me?" ”
Suddenly, a horse came from behind, and immediately sat a handsome boy, with a somewhat pale face, a beard around his chin, a nose that looked a little too delicate, and two eyes that were slender and long, making the whole face look a little gloomy.
When Xu You saw him, he immediately said loudly: "Oh, it's Cao Zihuan, without me, can your father and son enter this gate?" ”
The handsome boy didn't say a word, rode his horse to Xu You's place of one foot, and suddenly a cold light flashed on his waist, and a long sword flashed out and headed towards Xu You.
Xu You looked at the long sword that stabbed him in the chest, his eyes widened, and his face was full of incredulity.
Jun Gongzi pulled out his sword with his backhand, and blood suddenly spilled on the ground. Xu You's body fell forward and fell straight off the horse.
The ordinary soldiers passing by looked at Xu You's body, and then at Jun Gongzi, and they were all so frightened that they hurriedly ran away.
Jun Gongzi took out a clean white cloth, wiped the blood on the sword, and spat at Xu You.
"rambling, I've been putting up with you for a long time!"
