Yuan Shao suddenly realized. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info but very suspicious. Gritted his teeth and said: "Zhang Thief is all relying on Gao Gong's wisdom. That Gao Gong is now in Luoyang. How could he see through your scheme? ”

"There have been rumors lately. There was another strategist named Li Si beside the thief. Could it be that this person is giving advice to Zhang Thief. Guo Tu on the side. Something suddenly came to mind.

Hear the name of Lees. Up to Yuan Shao. Down to frustration. All of them change color.

Yuan Shao was silent. Frustrated. Up and down the Yuan camp. Caught in helplessness.

……

Liyang. The camp of the Zhou army.

Zhang Yuan has received the news of Yanjin's victory. Reassuringly. A reward was drawn up on the spot. will make his debut and set up a camp to defend the city. Promoted to Miscellaneous General. Enter the seal pavilion text.

"Lees. You have seen through the tricks of the frustrated. Yuan Shao shouldn't be able to play any tricks now. Zhang Yuan sneered.

Li Si smiled faintly: "The Yuan army's sneak attack on Yanjin failed. There must be no tricks to be tossed up. Liyang City was besieged for more than five months. I don't think Yuan Tan will be able to hold on for long. The destruction of the city will be in the near future. ”

Zhang Yuan nodded slightly. There was murder in his eyes. Sneered: "Then let's add more oil to the fire." Help Yuan Tan speed up the collapse. ”

Zhang Yuan immediately ordered. Mobilize more than 500 Heavenly Thunder resolutely. Again began to bombard Liyang City day and night.

And. Zhang Yuan bombarded the target. It is not the thick walls of Liyang City. It's the buildings in the city.

The next day, at dawn. Stone bullets the size of a bull's head. began to rise into the sky. Rise over the city walls. A steady stream of bombardments towards Liyang City.

With a loud bang that shook the sky. The city has been demolished to almost the size of a house. Piece after piece collapsed. Houses near the perimeter of the city walls. It was razed to the ground in a short time.

The premises were destroyed. The soldiers and civilians in the city lost their shelter from the cold. It's even more miserable. Yuan Shao was helpless. had to order the surrounding military and civilians. All of them moved to the heart of the city. to avoid the cold from shelling.

Tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers and civilians. They embraced the houses in the heart of the heart. Eating, drinking, and Lazar are all gathered together. Endure the cold and hunger not to say. Add to that the smell. It's even more painful.

And as the siege continued. Food rations are booming and scarce. The army barely managed to maintain 30 percent of its food rations. The people's food rations have been cut off. Yuan Tan had decided to leave them to fend for themselves.

The lobby of the county hall. The smell of meat is confused.

Yuan Tan looked at the wine and meat on the desk. But I'm not in the mood to eat. A sad face.

"The eldest son. Dozens of the city's people fled in an attempt to build the city. Captured by our city patrol soldiers. Please ask the eldest prince to show Ruzhong to deal with it. "One-armed Juyi. Hurry up and report. After seeing the wine and meat in front of Yuan Tan's case. His brow darkened.

"These people. Eat my Yuan's meal. Now I see that the situation is not good. I want to go to the dog thief Zhang thief. It's really hateful. Behead them all for me. The heads were hung on the gates of the city for display. Yuan Tan ordered in annoyance. The already bad appetite has deteriorated. Impatiently, he threw the chopsticks on the desk.

Ju Yi's figure shook slightly. He hesitated. But he said: "Those people were also forcibly taken away by us because of grain and grass. The hungry couldn't survive anymore, so they took risks. I want to escape to the outside of the city to survive. It's a good idea to think about it. Righteousness thinks that their sins do not lead to death. The eldest prince might as well spare their lives. ”

Previously, Yuan Tan wanted to ensure the rations in the army. Back before January. And he sent his soldiers to break into the houses of the people. They forcibly took away all the food rations that the people had hidden. Implement unified distribution.

And now it's getting to this point. Yuan Tan broke his promise. Only rations were given to the army. Ignore the people.

The people who have been deprived of food and grass. In order to live. Put the bark and so on everything that can be eaten. Eat all clean. As a last resort. chose to take the risk and flee the city.

General Ju has a point. It's just a few small people. There's no point in killing them. Xu You also persuaded from the side.

"Nonsense." Yuan Tan took a few shots. He said in a deep voice, "If I don't kill them today." It is tantamount to conniving at them to build the city and flee. Today the people can flee. Tomorrow the soldiers will follow suit. I'm going to kill them to scare the army. ”

Ju Yi was silent. He also knows. What Yuan Tan said makes sense. There was a moment of silence. Sighing and turning away.

Xu You could only sigh secretly. A helpless face.

Ju Yi retreated. Yuan Tan let out a vicious sigh. But the appetite is gone. Under the irritability. Fierce will be the wine and meat on the table. They were all lifted to the ground.

……

The siege entered its sixth month.

Although Yuan Tan has adopted an iron-blooded policy. To those who dare to flee. Regardless of the people. Kill them all.

However. Driven by the will to survive. There are still people who are prosperous and prosperous. Venture to escape.

Most of the fugitives. Naturally, he was caught by Yuan Jun. Punishment is imposed. But a small number of people have escaped. fled to the siege camp of the Zhou army.

For these recruited escapees. Zhang Yuan ordered good food and drink to relieve them. And from their mouths. I learned about the predicament in Liyang City.

When Zhang Yuan and their civil and military subordinates learned. Yuan Tan robbed the people of their rations. but they did not let them flee. When the people of the city have been driven to the point of cannibalism. Everyone was silent.

Prosper. The people are bitter. Lose. The people are bitter.

That's right. Zhang Yuan, who is familiar with history. Naturally clear.

He knows better. In the process of unification under heaven. There were thousands of people. It is bound to be innocent victims. This is something that no one can avoid.

"This Grand Prince Yuan. Mediocre abilities. The heart is hard enough. He was going to let the people of a city. and they are all buried with him. Lees shook his head and sighed.

"I didn't expect this Yuan Tan to be so ruthless. Husband. Those people are so pitiful. Save them. "Faye Wong is weak-hearted. Hear such a tragic thing. I couldn't help but feel compassion.

Zhang Yuan stroked her hand. But he could only shake his head and smile bitterly.

If you say that these people are in a desperate situation. Of course, there are reasons for Yuan Tan's iron-hearted heart. He can't get out of it himself. After all, he was the one who besieged Liyang City.

But Zhang Yuan had no choice. In this troubled time. It's not him who destroys others. It was someone else who came to destroy him. He could not have done it so as not to harm the people. Just give up the Northern Expedition. Sit and wait for Yuan Shao to slow down. Attack him again.

At that time. The people of the Central Plains. It will also suffer from the ravages of war.

Only with a butcher's knife in hand. to end the troubled times.

A sigh. Zhang Yuan suddenly thought of something. He said, "That's it." Quickly send someone to Liyang City in the name of his duke to send a message to Yuan Tan. Just said that I allowed him to let the people of Liyang out of the city. It's kind of giving them a way out. ”

Faye Wong's sad delicate body. There was a shock. He looked at his husband with a look of surprise.

In her eyes. Zhang Yuan is ruthless. She didn't think about it. Your husband can also have a heart of righteousness.
