People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places.

As long as there is still a little brain, everyone should be able to see that the current Yuan Shao is at the end of his rope.

Yuan Shao was defeated all the way to Yecheng. Almost all the power territory has been lost, even if he forcibly recruits and replenishes the military horses, it still looks like there are still hundreds of thousands of troops, but everyone knows that those military horses are just indiscriminately filled, and they don't have much combat power at all.

After the assassination of Liu Yi, Yuan Shao fell into a pathology, into a hysterical madness under despair.

He desperately wanted to seize the last power, desperately drove the people below and the people, hoping to build an impenetrable fortress for him, so that people could survive for a long time.

As long as anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yuan Shao does this, even if he can rely on the strong city to keep it for a little longer? Even if Yuan Shao has been frantically looting money and food in the city recently?

As soon as the New Han army arrives in Yecheng, even if it can't take Yecheng in a short period of time, it will definitely be able to clear the surroundings of Yecheng and make Yecheng a real lonely city.

Yuan Shao has no way to live, and the sergeants under his account have no way to live. Who wants to die with Yuan Shao hugging?

Therefore, the generals below Yuan Shao, if they have the opportunity, generally will not serve Yuan Shao again, even if they are his personal generals. Yuan Shao even had to control the family of the generals around him, which was originally a means that would make people centrifuge.

Now, it seems that there is a large army of the New Han army besieging the imperial city, which makes Yuan Shao's order. It is impossible to pass it out of the city for a moment. At this time, even if Qin Ren and the others betrayed Yuan Shao. The dead soldier of Yuan Shao in a hidden place outside the city, they would not know so quickly. If only they could move faster. Perhaps, the families of the generals of the Yuan army who were taken into custody by Yuan Shao can be rescued.

Therefore, now, what seems unlikely has happened, and the pro-soldier who should have been the most loyal to Yuan Shao was able to surrender to Zhao Yun at this moment. It's incredible, you know, Zhao Yun is in this palace. It's just with the strong man Zhang Huai.

Zhao Yun also felt that it was a little unreal, if these Yuan soldiers were really determined to besiege him, he was not too light to be able to kill this imperial city, that Zhang Huai, I am afraid that he would definitely die. That's right, Zhao Yun seems to be invincible, but that is the means used by Zhao Yun to mobilize the true qi in his body. It was impossible for him to maintain that invincible state for a long time, and once his true qi was exhausted, he could only be restrained or besieged to death by Yuan's army.

After all, people are not iron and will be tired. The body will fall, and the true qi will be consumed. Therefore, don't look at Zhao Yun's killing of those dozens of Yuan soldiers, it seems very easy. But hundreds of thousands of men and horses surrounded Zhao Yun together, and it was unlikely that he would kill all the Yuan soldiers. He didn't have that kind of body, and he killed all the people.

Qin Ren knelt in front of Zhao Yun and said, "General Zhao Yun." Yuan Shao will kill himself if he commits many injustices, and Qin Ren is willing to lead more than 2,000 subordinates. Surrender to the general. Serve the Taifu Liu Yi and serve the New Han Dynasty! ”

"Get up, and watch your actions." Zhao Yun was still a little wary, motioned for Qin Ren to get up, and then pointed at those Yuan soldiers and said, "They also have the same heart as General Qin?" ”

"Brothers, I think you all heard the conversation between Qin and General Zhao Yun, right? There is no way out to follow Yuan Shao again, I, Qin Ren, have decided to surrender to the New Han Dynasty and follow General Zhao Yun, if you want, follow me, if you don't want to, Qin is not reluctant, you can disperse separately. ”

Those Yuan soldiers naturally heard it, and also saw Qin Ren's action of surrendering to Zhao Yun. Among them, the vast majority of them were willing to surrender with Qin Ren. After all, the small family of these pro-soldiers did not let Yuan Shaokong get up. They want to surrender to Zhao Yun, and they have no scruples in their hearts, and they are more acceptable.

At the beginning, they knelt on the ground individually, expressing their willingness to follow Zhao Yun, and then, they were crackling, kneeling down one by one, expressing their willingness to surrender. Only a few Yuan Bing looked uncertain and did not express their position.

"Okay, get up, you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and I, Zhao Yun, will not lose you, and will report your events today to the lord Liu Yi, if you can make a contribution to our army's capture of the imperial city and the destruction of Yuan Shao, you are my Zhao Yun's brother, and you will be your own people in the future." As for those who don't want to follow me Zhao Yun, then let them go, don't force it, he will see you on the battlefield in the future, either you die or I live. Walk! ”

Zhao Yun ignored those who were unwilling to follow him, picked up his gun and walked towards the palace gate.

The shouts outside the imperial city were getting noisier and noisier, and he didn't know what the situation was, Zhao Yun had to be nervous to figure it out.

Qin Ren led his people to follow Zhao Yun, and it seemed that there should be about two thousand people. He himself could only mobilize more than 2,000 Yuan Shao's personal soldiers. Some of the men and horses he originally commanded, which were secretly sold by the Liu family, have already run to the Liu family's side. The reason why there are more than 2,000 people is that Yuan Shao's personal soldiers, who are not under his command, are also willing to vote over, so there are so many people.

"General Zhao, General Zhao." Qin Ren quickly caught up with Zhao Yun, and said a little restrainedly: "We can't go to the main gate of the palace, there is Yuan Shao's heavy army deployment there, even if we cooperate with the people outside, it will be difficult to break through the imperial city for a while." You go with your subordinates, and at the other side gate, it was originally the gate where the last general rotated to guard the town, and now, the Yuan army guarding there should not know that Qin has voted for the general, or you can open the city gate and let the people outside the city in. ”

When Zhao Yun heard this, he felt that it was so feasible, and there would definitely be Yuan Shao's army at the gate of the palace. If you can open a city gate from the side, you can also break through the imperial city.

"Lead the way!" Zhao Yun didn't say much, and directly asked Qin Ren to lead the way.

At this time, there is no need to say more, it depends on Qin Ren's actions.

Qin Ren called his own men and asked them to line up, and then walked around a city gate to the east.

In the palace, pavilions and pavilions, layer upon layer, what happened here, no one has reported to Yuan Shao for a while. At this moment, Yuan Shao was waiting for the city. Fight against the rebels outside the city.

Tai Shici, who was outside the city, was also a little anxious at the moment. They don't have siege engines. This time, it was possible to create such a big movement in Yecheng. It was definitely an accident, and no one thought about it. Therefore, he never thought that just by relying on the hundreds of people he sneaked into the city, he could call on the people in the city and force down so many Yuan troops. Therefore, there was no preparation at all, there was no preparation for the siege of the city.

Now, there are almost 100,000 Yuan troops, who are being held hostage by hundreds of people. The imperial city was surrounded. However, for a while, Tai Shi Ci couldn't conjure up the siege equipment. In addition, even if there are siege equipment, there is no way to attack the city, because those Yuan soldiers who were forced to surrender could not be willing to risk their lives to attack the city, Tai Shici couldn't let those people with flat hoes forcibly attack the city, right? Doesn't that mean letting those people go forward and die? And Tai Shici is most worried. It was those Yuan soldiers who were forced to surrender, once they saw that it was not the New Han Army attacking the city at all, but a small number of New Han Army soldiers making waves here. It is difficult to guarantee that these Yuan soldiers will repeat again.

Tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers are mixed with hundreds of thousands of people, if those Yuan soldiers turn against Yuan Shao. Then, these hundreds of thousands of people will be miserable. Tai Shi Ci didn't think that these people could be the enemies of these Yuan soldiers.

To be honest, Tai Shici is also a little anxious now. A little clueless, and even, in the face of such a situation, he didn't know how to end it. Besieging the Imperial City is nothing, but there is no way to break through the Imperial City. You must know that there are more than 100,000 Yuan troops outside the city, once they are allowed to enter the city, and the Yuan army here is opposed, then the consequences are really unimaginable.

At this time, Qin Ren had already taken his people to a side gate on the east side of the imperial city.

The guards here, Qin Ren knows, but the relationship with Qin Ren is not good.

As soon as Qin Ren arrived, the general led people to stop Qin Ren.

"Isn't this Qin Ren's commander? What are you doing with my lord? It's not time to change guards. Hehe, you don't want to help me defend the city, do you? Do you have such a good heart? ”

"Zhou Da face, it was the lord who asked me to wait to check the garrison situation everywhere, you recognize it, I want to go to the city to have a look."

"Oh? Really? What about the warrant of the lord? No one is allowed to approach his own zone without a warrant from the Lord. ”

"Hehe, of course there is." Qin Ren smiled and approached the general as he reached into his arms.

Although this general of the Yuan army seemed to be a little hostile and wary of Qin Ren, he never thought that Qin Ren had surrendered to the New Han Dynasty. Letting Qin Ren approach, he didn't let anyone stop him.

"Take a look at ......"

"Good! See...... Knife! Qin Ren's other hand suddenly rose, and between the stunned generals of the Yuan army, a cold light fell.

"Ahh You ......"

When the cold light fell, with a bang, the general of the Yuan army only had time to let out a loud scream, and as soon as he pointed his hand at Qin Ren, his head fell to the ground at once, his eyes widened, and his face was incredulous.

"Don't move!"

"Get down on your knees!"

"Zhou Liang colluded with the rebels, Qin came to take his head on the orders of the lord, whoever dares to resist will be guilty of the same crime as the rebels, and there will be no forgiveness for killing!"

With a hula, Qin Ren's people, who had been prepared for a long time, suddenly rushed forward to restrain those Yuan soldiers, and at the same time, loudly announced the order, falsely spreading Yuan Shao's will.

Zhao Yun watched from behind, and couldn't help nodding, this Qin Ren, although he is Yuan Shao's person, is also a little clever, and he can be regarded as a decisive person, and now he has killed Yuan Jun's guards, and it can be regarded as a vote, and in the future, he may be able to cultivate him, and he can be regarded as a usable general.

Qin Ren controlled the Yuan soldiers under the city, and did not rush to open the city gate, but rushed to the city with people, gesturing to Zhao Yun at the same time.

He led people to rush to the head of the city and restrained the Yuan soldiers on the city wall, Zhao Yun understood what he meant, and immediately asked people to open this side gate of the imperial city.

Outside the gate of the imperial city, outside the arrow distance of the imperial city wall, almost all of them were people. As soon as Zhao Yun walked out, he was also taken aback by so many crowds. However, what he saw outside did not seem to be the New Han Army, but some people who looked like ordinary people, among them, there were some Yuan Army soldiers.

For a while, Zhao Yun was also a little confused, not knowing what the situation was outside the imperial city.

Soon, however, the situation was discovered by the people outside, and there was a little commotion for a while, as if they were about to rush to the gate at any moment.

When Zhao Yun was considering whether to shout and lead these people and Yuan soldiers into this imperial city, he rode quickly from the side.

Zhao Yun fixed his eyes and looked at it, this person is not Tai Shici, who else? For a while, I couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Ziyi!" Zhao Yun walked out of the city quickly and beckoned to Tai Shici.

"Zilong? Y-Why are you here? What's going on? ”

"Haha, I want to ask you what's going on." Zhao Yun smiled at Tai Shici, who got off the horse, and said, "I didn't expect you to make such a big formation." ”

"Well, actually, I myself was confused, killing Yuan Shao, and the confusion made the whole city boil, but when I got here, I found out that what I killed was just a stand-in for Yuan Shao. Now, we don't have siege equipment, we can't break through this imperial city for a while, and those Yuan soldiers who were forced to land by us have been a little shaken under Yuan Shao's shouting, I'm afraid they will throw back Yuan Shao, I don't know how to end it. I didn't expect you to take this city gate for us, it's great. Tai Shici stepped forward, hugged Zhao Yun, and said happily.

"Actually, I'm also lucky, I won't say much, I'll talk about it later. Yuan Shao is afraid that he will soon find out about the changes at this city gate, so you should go in according to the queue of people. ”

"Okay, you can't let everyone go in, otherwise, you will definitely be messed up when you enter the palace. Zilong, let's go in together and take Yuan Shao's head. Tai Shi Ci said to Zhao Yun.

"No, it's up to you to deal with the matter here, I still have to go out of the city now, Yuan Shao secretly detained those relatives of Yuan Junjun somewhere outside the city, now, I plan to rescue those people, so that it will be much easier to recruit Yuan Jun when the time comes." Zhao Yundao.

"Is there such a thing? Are you going alone? Why don't I send some people to you, anyway, there are hundreds of thousands of horses here, and there are a lot of people. Tai Shi Ci said.

"Don't, there is still Yuan Shao's army outside the city, you will solve the matter in the palace immediately, and you will have to defend the city...... Hey? By the way, what about Yuan Shao's army outside the city? Why didn't they get in? ”

"Hehe, now there is such a big commotion in the city, Yuan Jun outside the city still doesn't know the situation in the city, Yuan Shao is surrounded by us, and his orders can't be transmitted. However, you are right, you have to quickly transfer people to defend the city, and don't let Yuan Shao's army outside the city kill in, otherwise, it will be a bad thing. Tai Shici explained a little, and suddenly thought of something: "Well, Zilong, the matter of rescuing General Yuan Junjun's family is also very important, it may be ...... Whether you can break up Yuan Shao's army outside the city depends on you. Why don't I go and call Shi Ah and them and come with you?" ”

"It's too late, I'm worried that Yuan Shao has some way to get through the Yuan army outside the city, as well as the dead soldiers who guard the families of Yuan Jun. In case Yuan Shao saw defeat, especially if he was betrayed by his own soldiers and trapped in the imperial city, he was furious and wanted to kill those generals. ”

"Well, then you can go." Tai Shi Ci hurriedly said. (To be continued......)
