Chapter 155: Yuan Shupai

The crops were ripe and ready to be cut, and Lu Bu felt that time was not on his side at all, and he was very short of time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Originally, he planned to go to Chaohu Lake first to find out the papermaking and printing techniques, but now it seems that he doesn't have so much time to do it himself, so he can only send someone to Chen Yu and Lu Ji to find out the general steps. In fact, in addition to his theoretical knowledge, Lu Bu's practical operation must not be much better than others.

Three days did not see any changes in Yuan Shu's army, Lu Bu came to Yacheng outside to check the dynamics of Yuan Shu's army, Lu Bu planned to transfer the heavy troops besieging Yuan Shu to the direction of Runan, and attack several counties in Nanyang County, Jingzhou, to help Liu Biao harvest grain, who called Lu Bu like to be helpful.

Lu Bu came directly to the Gaoshun camp outside Yacheng.

More than 60,000 soldiers formed countless small phalanxes, they could not see the edge at a glance, the swords were breathtaking, on the high platform in the middle of the large array, Gao Shun fluttered the flag, pointed the flag, and the small phalanx changed rapidly, sometimes evacuated, sometimes wrinkled.

Lu Bu crossed through the middle of the two small phalanxes and stepped directly onto the high platform.

On the high platform, you can see the soldiers under the stage at a glance more intuitively. Each small phalanx is arranged differently, only the front row of the large array is the sword and shield soldiers, and the back is the sword and axe soldiers, spearmen, archers, and a large number of ...... Long bamboo pole wooden stick soldier.

Under the command of Gao Shun, the entire large array advanced and retreated in an orderly manner without confusion. Gao Shun is indeed an expert in military training, and Lu Bu is ashamed of himself in military training. In just two or three days, Gao Shun gathered countless troops into a large array for unified command, and his ability to train troops can be seen.

"Ji Da's training is comparable to Han Xin in the early Han Dynasty. But what is the use of these bamboo pole soldiers? Lu Bu asked.

"The lord has a good reputation, and Han Xin can also train troops on the ridge, how dare the last general compare with Han Xin." Gao Shun said with a wry smile: "There is a serious shortage of weapons in the army, and the last general can only temporarily use bamboo poles instead of spears for drills, and let them follow the fighting moves." ”

Gao Shun continued: "I saw that the soldiers in the army were a rabble, they didn't know how to advance when they heard the drums, they didn't know how to retreat when they heard the gold, and they didn't know when they could break through the city. ”

Lu Bu approvingly: "Okay, I don't have to worry about Jida." Is there anything going on in Dental City? ”

"On these days, there will be shouts of killing in the city of Tooth City, and there will be occasional fires. It should have been that some soldiers rebelled, and then they were suppressed, and in a few days, Yacheng was self-defeating. Gao Shun said.

"I hope all the soldiers of Yuan Shu rebelled." Lu Bu said with a smile. He didn't have time to attack the Yuan Shu army in Yacheng, and he couldn't afford to consume the dead and wounded soldiers, and the war was about the materials and population, both of which Lu Bu lacked the most.

"In a few days, the army will move in the direction of Runan. How many soldiers do you need if you stay in Shouchun? "If Yuan Shu is not destroyed, Lu Bu can't evacuate Shouchun with the whole army now, his grain and grass are still in Chaohu, and Shouchun needs to be guarded.

"Although Yuan Shu still has 30,000 or 40,000 troops crowded in Yacheng, now the people are panicked, and the soldiers have no heart to fight, Yacheng trapped him to death in the city, and I can block his 40,000 soldiers in the city with only 5,000 people."

In fact, Lu Bu very much hopes to receive the soldiers in Yacheng, these tens of thousands of soldiers are also a lot of productive forces, and they can move them over with the situation of the army, which is easier than moving the people.

Night.

Inside the Tooth City, the shouts of killing outside the palace sounded intermittently again.

Yuan Shu was lying on the gorgeous dragon couch, frightened a few days ago, and his body was declining. The shouting outside the palace gate became higher and higher, from far to near, Yuan Shu struggled to turn over and get up, and asked outward, "What are you shouting outside the palace?" ”

Yang Hong brought it into the harem: "Your Majesty, the thieves in the city are blocking the palace gate." ”

Yuan Shu panicked: "Where are my guards?" Tell the guards to guard the palace gate! ”

Yang Hong smiled bitterly: "There are no guards, only anti-thieves." Lu Bu's thieves sealed the inner city, the people in the inner city were panicked, and countless thieves would rebel in tandem under the instigation of Lu Bu, Qin Yi was guarding the palace gate, I was afraid that it would be difficult to hold tonight. ”

When Yuan Shu heard that the palace gate was about to be lost, he screamed, his body went weak, and he fell from the couch to the ground, his head broke and blood flowed, and blood kept coming out of his mouth.

"Doctor Chuan...... Chuan Tai Doctor ...... "Yang Hong hurriedly stepped forward to help Yuan Shu, but saw that Yuan Shu's eyes were cloudy and his breathing was weak.

Yuan Yin, who was fighting hard to assist Qin Yi in guarding the palace gate, heard a noise from the palace, and walked towards Yuan Shu's dormitory. As soon as I arrived outside the door, a palace maid knelt in the dormitory.

"Your Majesty?" Yuan Yin shouted.

"Your Majesty has died." Yang Hong knelt in front of Yuan Shulong's couch, turned his head and said to Yuan Yin.

"What! Your Majesty is dead? Yuan Yin suddenly felt that the sky had fallen, with Yuan Shu here, he could hide under Yuan Shu's wings, as soon as Yuan Shu died, he had to face Lu Bu's butcher's knife, and he only felt that the sky was dark.

"Silence!" Yang Hong yelled at Yuan Yin angrily: "Stupid, the anti-thieves are attacking outside the palace, if they know that Your Majesty has died, won't it further boost their arrogance?" We will die and have no place to be buried! ”

Yuan Yin's face changed several times, and when Yang Hong knelt in front of the couch and didn't pay attention, he stepped forward to cut off Yang Hong's head, and said hideously: "The old man wants to die, but don't pull me to bury him." ”

Yuan Yin carried Yang Hong's head and drank Yang Hong's guards, who were about to move: "Lu Bu's army is outside the city, and now there is chaos in the city, it is better to surrender Lu Bu to seek a way to survive." ”

The crown prince Yuan Yao had just heard that Yuan Shu had died, and he was woken up in his sleep by the guards sent by Yang Hong, and asked him to rush to the throne to control the overall situation. As soon as Yuan Yao stepped into the dormitory, he saw Yuan Yin carrying Yang Hong's head and threatening to surrender to Lu Bu, and he was so frightened that his soul was not possessed.

"Uncle, what is this doing? Lu Bu threatened outside the city a few days ago that he would never spare my Yuan family, how could he survive if he surrendered? Yuan Yao cried.

"The virtuous nephew is not worried, that's just that Lu Bu wants an excuse to collect my Yuan's property, now the eldest brother Yuan Benchu is in Hebei, how dare Lu Bu kill him, otherwise with Lu Bu's murderous temperament, the clansmen in his hands would have already fallen into a different place, and how could he lead the disaster to Xuchang? And we still have the heirloom jade seal in our hands, if Lu Bu is in a hurry, we will destroy the jade seal and Lu Bu will fight to break the net. Yuan Yin comforted.

"What about the rebels outside the palace gate?"

"Kill Yang Hong and Qin Yi, and the thieves will retreat." Yuan Yin said.

The two discussed, and pretended that Yuan Shu ordered Qin Yi, who was trying to guard the palace gate, into the dormitory, and the knife and axe hand flashed out behind the door. Qin Yi was confused and returned to the west.

Yuan Yin carried the heads of Yang Hong and Qin Yi to the top of the palace gate, and saw that the dense rebels below were attacking the palace gate, Yuan Yin raised his head and shouted loudly below: "The head of the thief Yang Hong and Qin Yi are here, I am willing to surrender Lu Fengxian with you." ”

The rebels saw Yang Hong's head, and slowly retreated, they didn't have a siege ladder at all, and they also suffered heavy casualties when they attacked the palace gate, if they weren't blocked in the tooth city, under the domination of the desire to survive, they would not be willing to rebel at such a large cost of casualties, let alone storm the palace.

As soon as Lu Bu closed his eyes, a soldier's voice came from outside the big tent: "General Gao has something to report to General Lu." ”

The guard said, "General Lu has just fallen asleep, if it is not an urgent matter, please come back tomorrow." ”

Although the voice was small, Lu Bu was still awakened, Gao Shun was a very cautious general, and small things would not bother Lu Bu in the middle of the night, unless he encountered something that he couldn't decide. Lu Bu didn't have time to get up and put on his armor and said directly: "Pass him in." ”

The soldiers were ordered to enter the big tent, and Lu Bu was putting on his coat: "The letter from the inside of the Yacheng / Shooting." ”

Lu Bu took the letter handed by the soldier, opened it, and said happily: "God help me." ”

It turned out that Yuan Shu was the same as in history, vomiting blood and dying, Yuan Yin pleaded and surrendered, and Yuan Yin asked Lu Bu to guarantee the life of his Yuan family, and was willing to send the jade seal of the country and the property of the Yuan family in exchange, otherwise he would set fire to destroy the jewelry and jade seal accumulated by the Yuan family.

In Lu Bu's eyes, the jade seal of the country was a hot dead thing, he didn't even think about keeping it for himself, except for sending it to Xuchang to hand it over to the Son of Heaven, and continuing to pretend to be a loyal minister. Once he takes the jade seal for himself, I am afraid that it will be the next Yuan Shu, who will be attacked by a group.

However, the jewels accumulated by the Yuan family for several generations Lu Bu was very moved, although it was almost squandered by Yuan Shu, there were still 3,000 nails in the broken ship, and Lu Bu should be able to exchange it for some grain and grass to survive.

"Quasi-drop. But Ben General said that he would send the Yuan family to Xuchang, how could he break his word. Go back and tell Yuan Yin that I will send 'a few' people to send his family to Xuchang. Lu Bu said. What has been said cannot be broken in the world. Now, he would indeed only send a few people to escort the Yuan clan so that they could escape.

At least Lu Bu showed his determination to send him to Xuchang, and in the end, Yuan Yin's escape could only be arranged poorly, and the families who opposed Lu Bu could not make a big fuss about it.

"Go and call Yan Xiang." Lu Bu said to the herald. Yuan Yin may not believe Lu Bu, Lu Bu has been thinking about the route of the customs recently, and he doesn't want to waste his energy on these small negotiations, and Yan Xiang is the best candidate to negotiate.

In the middle of the night, Yan Xiang was sleeping at home, and after receiving Lu Bu's order, he knew that something big had happened, so he hurriedly put on his clothes and came to Lu Bu's big tent.

"Lord Yan, Yuan Shu has died, Yuan Yin wants to surrender, at this time, I will entrust you with full responsibility. The only requirement of this general is that all the Yuan Shu soldiers in Yacheng must be surrendered, and the grain and grass in it must be the same as the remaining jewels, and our army is currently short of food. Lu Bu explained to Yan Xiang.

Yan Xiang took the order and left. Overnight, I came to the moat outside the city of Yacheng, crossed the moat with a bamboo row, and went directly to the open city gate. Yuan Yin had been waiting for Lu Bu's response, and when he saw Yan Xiang coming, he personally brought Yuan Yao and many rebel generals in the army to greet him.
