Chapter 517: Taking over Yecheng
Wen Chou's thick eyebrows froze, turned his horse, and said in a deep voice: "The lord will go first, and I will stop the thief surnamed Ran." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"There are thousands of enemy troops, and they are all cavalry, you only have less than a thousand foot soldiers, how can you stop it." Frustrated, he poured cold water on him.
Wen Chou's body was shocked, and he froze for a while.
Yuan Shao's firm face was already full of fear, so he could only whip the horse whip desperately and run forward, but unfortunately the Zhou army behind was riding lightly, but he was chasing after him.
Suddenly, there was a lot of dust and fog ahead, and another army of iron cavalry suddenly killed.
Yuan Shao was shocked and changed color, he was so frightened that he almost fell down from his horse, his face was like a tide of fear, and he looked up to the sky and shouted angrily: "The road ahead is blocked, and there are chasing soldiers behind, God, you are simply blind, you have to put me Yuan Shao to death." ”
The soldiers and soldiers of Yuan who followed left and right were also trembling and panicking to the extreme.
At this moment, his eyes moved, and he pointed ahead and said, "Lord, look, it seems that the front is not an enemy army, but our own cavalry." ”
Own cavalry.
Yuan Shao was suddenly surprised, as if in the darkness, he saw a ray of light, but he was full of doubts, he couldn't guess how a cavalry of his own would suddenly appear on the outskirts of Yecheng.
In front, the cavalry was galloping close, and when Yuan Shao saw the banner clearly, his determined face was suddenly filled with infinite surprise.
The banner of the word "Lu" flies proudly in the dust and mist.
It was his righteous son Lu Bu who killed it.
"It turned out to be Feng Xian, and Feng Xian didn't abandon me." Yuan Shao was so surprised and excited that he almost jumped off his horse.
After Yecheng was besieged the previous time, Yuan Shao's sons and nephews refused to come to the rescue, so Lu Bu said that he had a way to move to rescue the soldiers, and asked Yuan Shao to allow him to kill out of the city.
Yuan Shao thought that Lu Bu saw that the situation was unfavorable, and he had a different idea, and wanted to escape from Yecheng under an excuse, so he did not allow it, but a few days later, Lu Bu actually took a team of soldiers and horses and killed him out of the city.
Lu Bu has a horse, his martial arts are superb, and he is all cavalry, and even the Zhou army can't stop him from escaping.
Yuan Shao hated Lu Bu deeply at that time, thinking that Lu Bu was ambitious, and betrayed him at a critical moment.
He never expected that Lu Bu, who he had a deep grudge about, would lead a team of soldiers and horses to come back to save himself at this critical moment, how could he not be overjoyed.
A moment later, that team of soldiers and horses arrived, with nearly 1,000 cavalry and more than 3,000 infantry, which was beyond Yuan Shao's imagination.
"The rescue came too late, so the lord was frightened." Lu Bu stepped forward and bowed his hand.
Yuan Shao was overjoyed and surprised, and asked tremblingly, "Wenhe, where did you get so many soldiers and horses?" ”
Lu Bu arched his hand and said: "Back to the lord, these soldiers and horses are all the subordinates of the second prince. ”
"Xi'er, Xi'er came to save me." Yuan Shao was pleasantly surprised.
He originally thought that Yuan Xi ignored his life and death, and refused to come to save him like Yuan Shang did it, but now when he heard Lu Bu say this, he thought that he had misunderstood this second son.
Lu Bu said silently: "The lord thought wrongly, I rushed to Nanpi at the beginning, and wanted to ask the second prince to lead the army to save Yecheng, but the second prince was instigated by Guo Tu, pushing three and four times, but he refused to send troops, and in a fit of anger, he killed that Guo Tu and kidnapped the second son, so that he was able to mobilize his soldiers and horses, and came to save Yecheng, but he didn't expect to be a step late, and Yecheng was finally broken by that Zhang Yuan. ”
I see.
The relief on Yuan Shao's face suddenly disappeared, and he regained his disappointment, shaking his head and sighing bitterly.
It turned out that the truth was the opposite of what he thought.
Guo Tu, one is a strategist who has followed him for many years, Yuan Xi, his own biological son, in order to preserve his strength, he can be so ruthless that he ignores his life and death.
In the end, it had to be Lu Bu, the righteous son he once feared, who used iron-blooded means to move in to save himself.
Yuan Shao's heart was like a knife, and his heart was full of pain.
"General Liu came just in time, and Zhang Yuan's pursuers will be killed soon, you should think of a way." Fu Zhi was the first to calm down and reminded in a deep voice.
Lu Bu raised his eyes and swept his eyes, saw the battle flag with the word "Ran", and saw that it was not Li Cunxiao who was killed, his cold face was arrogant like fire, and he raised his spear and shouted: "Wen Chou, you protect the lord and go first, Ran Min's subordinates are defeated, and hand them over to me." ”
Wen Chou hurriedly protected Yuan Shao, who was distracted, and fled north in a hurry.
Lu Bu immediately crossed his sword, and ordered his subordinates to line up in a cavalry formation, arrogantly facing the Zhou army's iron cavalry that was chasing fiercely.
……
Yecheng.
The battle flags of the Zhou army have been planted at all gates, and tens of thousands of Zhou troops have entered from the four gates and controlled all the key points.
Zhang Yuan rode his horse into the city and went straight to the east gate, where he suspected that Yuan Shao had fled.
Rushing to the east gate, the soldier reported that there was something wrong nearby, and Zhang Yuan was led to an abandoned house, and when he saw that the house was littered with mud, he had faintly guessed seven or eight points in his heart.
Continuing to move forward, I saw Yuan Jun prisoners kneeling everywhere in the courtyard, all of them trembling with fear, kneeling on both sides and kowtowing to Zhang Yuan to beg for mercy.
Among the descendants, there was a woman who was suddenly in a spirit, thirty-four or five years old, sitting limply on the ground, looking at a deep pit not far away.
When he saw the hole, Zhang Yuan frowned, which further confirmed his guess, so he arrested a few soldiers for interrogation, and sure enough, Yuan Shao dug the tunnel in advance, and escaped from Yecheng from this secret passage while Han Meng was holding back his main force.
"Why didn't these soldiers escape?" Zhang Yuan asked again.
It was only then that the soldiers collapsed in the tunnel, blocking the tunnel and making it impossible for those behind them to pass through.
The truth was revealed, and it was exactly the same as Zhang Yuan had speculated.
"Grandma, it turns out that this old thief Yuan is really so yin, thanks to Han Meng's idiot, he stupidly sent him to death." Li Dingguo scolded with disdain.
If the tunnel collapses, Yuan Shao may die inside, even if he escapes, there are still Ran Min's light cavalry pursuers, and he may not be able to escape from Ascension.
Zhang Yuan was not in a hurry to regret it, and ordered the soldiers to enter the tunnel, clean up the corpses inside, and check whether Yuan Shao was included.
A team of soldiers jumped into the pit, and Zhang Yuan's attention was diverted to the disillusioned beauty.
This woman is only thirty-four or five years old, although her appearance is not top-notch, but she is also quite beautiful, especially the plump and full body, which really has a bit of mature charm.
"Who is she?" Zhang Yuan asked.
The soldiers didn't dare to hide it, and they were busy telling the truth about Liu's identity.
Zhang Yuan's eyes lit up, and then he realized that the woman in front of him turned out to be Yuan Shao's stepwife Liu.
Zhang Yuan is familiar with the Three Kingdoms, how can he not know the origin of this Liu family.
This woman is also from a big family in Hebei, Yuan Shao had already imagined occupying Hebei as the foundation before Cao Cao's rebellion, so in order to gain the support of the Hebei scholars, he married this Liu as his wife by force.
