Chapter 16 Aftermath

Come fast, go fast, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses rushed to burn grain, and like the tide of the torrent surging away, morning and evening, not delayed, just from this point of view, you can see Cao Cao's strict management of the army, the elite degree of his soldiers is extremely strong.

Seeing that Cao Jun had retreated, Zhang Jaw did not chase after him, but hurriedly ordered someone to extinguish the fire and rescue in the black nest.

But looking at the fire in the black nest, I am afraid that there is not much left.

Although the black nest was on fire, Zhang Jaw did not forget another major event, and while ordering people to rescue the black nest, he still focused on sending people to inquire about Yuan Shang's news. After all, the most fundamental reason why Yuan Shao sent troops to Wuchao this time was still on Yuan Shang.

The scout quickly brought back a report that Yuan Shang was guarding the mountain on the south side in front of the main gate of Wuchao.

Zhang Jaw did not hesitate, and immediately led the troops to meet him.

When he arrived, just as Yuan Shang led his troops down the mountain, he turned over and dismounted, stepped forward hurriedly, bowed to Yuan Shang, and said respectfully: "The last general Zhang Jaw is ordered to support the third son, and I hope that the son will forgive his sins." ”

Zhang Jaw's tone was extremely respectful and respectful, because in the entire army, only Yuan Shang had a far-sighted vision, seeing that Cao Jun would sneak attack the black nest and lead the troops to rescue him in advance, and he was almost in danger of life and death.

Yuan Shang carefully looked at Zhang Jaw a few times, and secretly praised himself in his heart, he was worthy of being the person with the highest achievement in Hebei Siting Zhu, he was indeed dignified in appearance and extraordinary in appearance, compared to Zhang Liao and others he had just seen.

"General Zhang is polite, if you hadn't come in time, I'm afraid my little life would have to be handed over to Cao Cao."

Zhang Jaw shook his head when he heard this, and sighed: "I'm ashamed that the third prince has a vicious eye, and he has already seen the tricks of the Cao thief and dared to come to reinforcements, but unfortunately we can't realize it, if we follow the words of the third prince earlier, how can we have today's losses."

Speaking of this, Zhang Jaw turned his head to look at the fire in the black nest, and his heart suddenly felt a cramp.

"The fire is so big, I'm afraid that even if it is extinguished, it will not be able to save one or two, the grain and grass will be burned, and my army will change in a few days, and how can we resist the danger of Cao Thief's battle at that time!"

Yuan Shang smiled when he heard this, and said: "Not yet, I have already ordered General Yu to leave a back hand, and the grain and grass should still be able for us to hold on for a while, but I am afraid that we will not be able to support it for a few days."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a rumbling sound of horses' hooves in the distance, but it was Yuan Shao who took Gao Ran as the front and personally led the army to come to reinforcements.

Yuan Shang and Zhang Jaw did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly rode forward to meet each other.

Seeing the firelight in the sky of the black nest from afar, Yuan Shao couldn't help but feel dizzy for a while, and he was almost angry to death if he didn't catch a breath.

But when he opened his mouth, he spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow-" and fell off his horse.

"Father!" Yuan Xi, who was standing on the side, suddenly panicked, and hurriedly dismounted and hugged Yuan Shao.

Yuan Xi secretly complained in his heart, the third brother's wind and cold had just improved, but now his father was vomiting blood and falling from his horse, what happened to the Yuan family?

Yuan Shao vomited blood and fell from his horse, which was not trivial, and the three armies immediately stopped, and the generals of the left and right guards shouted loudly, ordering people to quickly pass on the military doctor's order, which was quite messy for a while.

Yuan Shao woke up faintly in Yuan Xi's arms, looking at the half-black and half-red night sky with cloudy eyes, as if he was a little confused.

After a long time, I finally heard Yuan Shao's hoarse voice and said a word resentfully.

"Cao Apu, you did a good thing"

While grieving, he suddenly saw that Yuan Shang and Zhang Jaw and others had come on horseback, and the soldiers of Yuan recognized the two and scattered one after another, opening a way for the two of them.

"Father?"

"Lord!"

The two came to Yuan Shao, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and looked at Yuan Shao lying weakly in Yuan Xi's arms. …,

"Xianfu" Yuan Shao called weakly.

"Father, the child is here" Yuan Shang hurriedly agreed.

"Alas, because my father was careless, he repented and did not listen to my son, so that he had today."

Yuan Shao looked extremely depressed, sighed melancholy, and continued: "Now that Wuchao has been burned hundreds of thousands of troops, there is no food and grass at all, I am afraid that within a few days, there will be a mutiny in the army, if the Cao army takes the opportunity to attack, we will all be captured, and there is no regret for my father."

Speaking of this, but seeing that Yuan Shao, who has always been a conceited hero, his eyes were a little moist, and a faint sadness suddenly enveloped everyone's heart.

Yuan Shang smiled and said, "Father doesn't need to worry, the child is already there."

"That's right" Yuan Shao didn't seem to hear what Yuan Shang was saying, and suddenly opened his mouth to interrupt Yuan Shang's words and asked, "What about Chun Yuqiong?" Did you die in battle? ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jaw hesitated for a moment, and said respectfully: "Back to the lord, General Chun Yuqiong is injured, but he is not in critical condition, and he is commanding the soldiers to extinguish the fire in the black nest at this moment."

"This drunkard has harmed my army a lot!"

Yuan Shaoqiang straightened his body, gritted his teeth and said, "Why didn't he die?" I, I, I, I will break this horseman's body into ten thousand pieces, and I hate it with blood! ”

"Father, General Chun Yuqiong, he also fought hard tonight, and besides, Cao's army is too strong, and the responsibility is not all on him." Yuan Shang thought about it, but decided to say something fair.

"Not on him?" Yuan Shao laughed when he heard this, shook his head and said: "My army has no food, and it will be wiped out overnight, even if he fights bravely, what is the use of not being able to keep the grain?" ”

Yuan Shang was depressed, these people are really annoying, one out on the left and one on the right, like a resentful woman, can you let me finish speaking?

Thinking of this, Yuan Shang ignored it, hurriedly opened his mouth to pour beans into a bamboo tube, and said non-stop: "Father, although the Wuchao was burned, it is not useless for the child to come to the Wuchao to delay Cao Jun this time, at least he has saved one-twelfth of the grain. ”

“”

“”

"What!"

was stunned for a while, but when he heard the people present, including Yuan Shao, Yuan Xi, Zhang Jaw and others, all shouted in disbelief, and then grew his mouth in surprise, and looked at Yuan Shang in surprise, as if he was saying something big.

Yuan Shao looked at Yuan Shang in a daze for a long time, and said in surprise: "Xianfu, you said that you kept one-twelfth of the grain and grass, but really? ”

Yuan Shang nodded and said: "At this kind of moment, how can the child be in the mood to make up nonsense to deceive you, I let Chun Yuqiong lead the army to carry the grain, and I led the army to delay with the Cao army on the mountains on both sides of the Wuchao, and bluffed the vanguard of the Cao army, Zhang Liao and Xu Chu, and won a lot of time. ”

Yuan Shao was stunned for a long time, then suddenly patted Yuan Shang's shoulder with a heavy hand, and said with a trembling face of joy: "Heaven will not die in Hebei, giving this unicorn and Yuan is really fortunate for the ancestors, and the Yuan family is very lucky!" ”

Yuan Shang grinned bitterly, and did not show any smug expression, after a long time, Fang listened to his helpless words: "But father, you have to be mentally prepared, the amount of these grains and grass is really not much, and it is impossible to continue to attack Cao Cao, if you maintain the retreat of the three armies to the crossing of the Yellow River, it is barely enough for your father, this battle can't be fought in the final analysis, withdraw the army." ”
