Yuan Xi also knew that he persecuted Zhen like this, like killing a chicken to take eggs.

How big is Zhen's family?

Yuan Xi is the son of Yuan Shao, how can the son-in-law of the Zhen family not know? But he had no choice. If Zhen doesn't fund him, he's really finished. Yuan Shao is on his knees, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang are fighting. Yuan Shang was better, but Yuan Tan regarded Yuan Xi as a thorn in his side. The reason is very simple. Yuan Xi has always adhered to neutrality and neither helped Yuan Tan nor Yuan Shang. He wanted to survive in the cracks, but sometimes, it was not easy to do with the mud. He wants to help both sides, but in fact he is tantamount to offending both sides.

Think about it, the strategists and generals under Yuan Shao began to stand in line.

Except for a few old people who are highly respected or have followed Yuan Shao for a long time, they have not clearly expressed their position, even Yingchuan celebrities like Xin Ping Xin Bi have to choose a position. Yuan Xi is just a concubine, and he is not outstanding in terms of ability, and he is not as good as Xin Ping and others in terms of prestige. In this case, what qualifications and mud do you have as a concubine? You're not a muddy, it's clear that you have ulterior motives.

Yuan is still better for Yuan Xi, but Yuan Tan ......

Now Yuan Shao was defeated in Guandu and was angry.

Yuan Xi lost Youzhou, if he didn't put on enough posture, how could Yuan Shao spare him?

Although the Zhen family married him, Yuan Xi didn't take it to heart. If you don't persecute the Zhen family, do you want to persecute Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan? That's looking for death.

Anyway, the Zhen family and Yuan Xi have become grasshoppers on the same line, in Yuan Xi's opinion, he has no choice, and the Zhen family also has no choice.

The big cars slowly drove into Beiping City, and Zhen Yao and Zhen Xin came to Yuan Xi and bowed down.

"Second son, the grain and grass have been escorted over...... It's just that the time is too rushed, and the first batch only has 6,000 stone grain and grass.

A baggage equipment is still being prepared. I'll wait before I go. Mother asked us to beg the second son to be forgiving for some time, otherwise it would be difficult to gather the items that the second son needed. In addition, my mother said that materials such as crossbows, catapults, and ordnance and armor were not easy to escort, and that they would take a few days to arrive. ”

Yuan Xi said gently: "The two virtuous brothers don't need to be polite, I also know my mother's difficulties, so a few days later is not a big deal." ”

It's November, and there's light snow in the sky.

Looking at the white outside of the city, Yuan Xi also felt a little bored.

Fortunately, the grain and grass were delivered. There is no need to worry about food in a short period of time. This is a blessing in disguise! If the grain and grass keep up, it will not shake the morale of the army. There are still more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and with Beiping City, he can always stabilize his position. After Yuan Shao returned to Hebei, the Han army would inevitably retreat. At that time, Yuan Xi will be able to take the initiative. I don't believe that I can't take back Wuruan Pass, and wash away the humiliation.

That night, Yuan Xi held a banquet in the palace to entertain Zhen Yao and Zhen Xin.

At the banquet, Zhen Xin asked casually: "Second son, I heard that Gong Yuan is about to return to Yecheng?" ”

Yuan Xi shook his head, "I got the news two days ago. My father has returned to Liyang.

However, he was not in good health, and he fell ill after arriving in Liyang, and it is estimated that he will not return to Yecheng immediately. The thief was cunning, and he attacked the grain road. Otherwise, how could this battle be lost? Rest assured. When my father's health improves and he returns to Yecheng, it won't be long before he will fight with that Cao Cao again. ”

Zhen Xin listened. Eyes narrowed.

He turned his head to look at Zhen Yao and nodded to Zhen Yao.

"That's right. How is Xiao Mi now? ”

Yuan Xi got grain and grass, his mood improved a lot, and after three rounds of drinking, he couldn't help but ask.

Speaking of which, Yuan Xi does like Zhen Mi.

Not to mention that Zhen Mi is beautiful and incomprehensible, she has a good personality, gentle and virtuous, and definitely has the demeanor of everyone's ladies. I haven't seen Zhen Mi for almost half a year, and Yuan Xi misses it a lot.

Zhen Yao hurriedly said: "Fifth sister is very good, but the weather changed suddenly a few days ago, and the wind was cold by chance, so it was a little uncomfortable." ”

"That's ......"

Yuan Xi said: "Let her rest over there." ”

He didn't ask Zhen Mi about it again, and pushed the cup with the Zhen brothers to change the lamp.

After a while, Yuan Xi ate too much wine, and with the support of the two maidservants, he returned to the house to rest.

Zhen Yao and Zhen Xin also said goodbye and left, and when they walked out of the mansion, it was already late.

The snow was still falling, but it wasn't very heavy.

After Zhen Yao and Zhen Xin glanced at each other, Zhen Yao took people back to the station. After he returned to the post station, he ordered someone to prepare wine, and then personally sent it to the gate tower of Beiping, pretending to be Yuan Xi's order to reward the defenders on the city tower.

Anyway, Zhen Yao is Yuan Xi's brother-in-law.

He personally came to reward him, so that the soldiers on the tower of the city gate all felt flattered.

These days, they went out of the town of Beiping City, and faced the repeated battles of the Han army, and they were also frightened. It's so cold and it's snowing. There was wine and food to treat their stomachs, and the soldiers of the Yuan army in the city naturally couldn't refuse, so they thanked Zhen Yao again and again, and each received the wine.

Zhen Yao ordered people to wait on the side, and he accompanied the city gate guards to eat wine in the cave of the city gate tower.

Time, little by little.

That Yuan Jiang also drank a lot of wine......

Suddenly, I heard a series of shouts from the city gate, "General, there is an enemy!" ”

When the gatekeeper heard this, he stumbled out of the hole and climbed up the tower. Zhen Yao also followed the guard to the city tower, only to see a Han army outside the city, rapidly approaching.

"The Youzhou barbarian who is a straight lady thief, can't he live in peace?"

That Yuan Jiang couldn't help but scold.

But before he could give the order, he saw a sudden fire in the city.

Yuan Jiang was stunned, and hurriedly shouted and asked: "Go and find out where the fire started."

Immediately pass the second son......"

"No, I know where the fire started."

Zhen Yao kept following behind General Yuan, and even pulled out his sword in his hand.

Yuan Jiang was stunned when he heard this, and turned around suddenly. But before he could react, Zhen Yao took a step forward and stabbed him in the heart with a sword.

A puddle of warm blood sprayed on Zhen Yao's face.

"Yuan Xi persecuted my Zhen family too much, and today my Zhen family turned against him Yuan.

The one who dares to move, don't blame me for being ruthless...... Someone, open the city gate for me, and Uncle Fang Huang will enter the city. ”

The servants who followed Yuan Xi's side were all heroes carefully selected by the old lady from the Zhen family, and they were strong in martial arts. More brave and good at fighting.

As soon as Zhen Yao made a move, the gang pulled out their weapons and slashed and slashed.

Before Sergeant Yuan could come to his senses, Zhen Yao had already led people to the winch, turned the winch, and opened the city gate.

Zhao Yun had already been notified by Tian Shi, and when he saw the city gate open, he led the soldiers and horses into the city without saying a word......

"I am Changshan Zhao Yun. Who dares to stop me? ”

Zhao Yun shouted on the horse, and the soldiers of the Yuan army dodged one after another.

In the first battle of Yanxiang, Zhao Yun's horse stepped on the company camp, which had frightened the soldiers of the Yuan army. Now this Zhao Zilong has entered the city again, and a group of defeated generals. Who dares to step forward to stop it.

At the same time, Zhen Xin led a group of people to set fire to the grain and grass in the school yard.

Zhen Yao said that he sent 10,000 stones of grain and grass, but in fact, among the 10,000 stones of grain and grass, there are not many real grains and grasses, and they are filled with a lot of dry grass and firewood and other fire-igniting objects. Yuan soldiers guarding grain and grass. I wouldn't have thought that this Zhen family would turn against Yuan Xi. So when he was defenseless, he was attacked by Zhen Xinshun and set fire to the school...... The fire is fierce! The Zhen family has been planning for a long time this time, and the grain truck will burn when it encounters a fire. Blink of an eye. The entire school field was engulfed in flames, and Sergeant Yuan was even more panicked and vinegared, not knowing what to do.

It was at this time that Zhao Yun entered the city.

Yuan Jun in Beiping has long been a frightened bird. Seeing this, he abandoned his weapons and surrendered without saying a word.

Zhen Yao rushed down from the city. After meeting with Zhao Yun, he led the way in front and went straight to the mansion.

Yuan's army, which was stationed outside the city, also sensed the fire in Beiping.

The generals of the Yuan army immediately led their troops to the rescue, who knew that Lu Xun Hao Zhao had already laid an ambush on the way, and when the Yuan army arrived, he immediately met the attack.

After experiencing the First Battle of Yanxiang, the morale of the Yuan army had already dropped to freezing.

So much so that when they encountered the Han army, they did little and did not put up any resistance, and they were soon defeated and left.

Although the number of Yuan's army was large, it was not able to fight.

Hao Zhao led eight hundred into battle and directly defeated the opponent in the front. Lu Xun led his troops to attack from both flanks, causing Yuan's soldiers and horses to scatter and flee......

Yuan Xi woke up from his sleep and ran out of the room with a cloak.

"What's going on out there, where is the fire?"

A general of the Yuan family ran in front of Yuan Xi and said loudly: "Second son, it's not good...... The Zhen brothers rebelled! ”

"What?"

Yuan Xi hadn't woken up from his hangover at this time, and at first glance, he scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about, how can the Zhen family rebel?" ”

"Really, the Zhen brothers are really the opposite.

Zhen Xin led people to lose the grain and grass in the city, and Zhen Yao opened the city gate and put the Liaodong barbarians into the city...... Now, the Liaodong barbarians are rushing to the government, and the leader is Changshan Zhao Zilong. Second son, please evacuate quickly, we are willing to fight to protect the son and withdraw. ”

Yuan Xi couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and the wine woke up all of a sudden.

The Zhen family rebelled?

How could they rebel, and how could they rebel!

Yuan Xi was suddenly furious, "The Zhen family can't ...... if they want to die."

But this is not the time for him to lose his temper. When Yuan Xi heard that the Han army had entered the city, he knew that the defeat was certain and irretrievable. It was a group of remnants of the defeated army, and their morale was low. Now that even the Zhen family has rebelled, and the soldiers of the Yuan army have long had no intention of resisting.

The shouting of killing is getting closer and closer.

Yuan Xi knew that it would be too late if he didn't leave.

Without saying a word, he ran down the stairs barefoot.

Someone had already brought the war horse, and after Yuan Xi turned over and got on the horse, he turned around and ran to the back door of the government under the protection of a general.

Coming out of the back door, Yuan Xi was already panicking. After he identified the direction, he rushed out of the alley with a whip, but he didn't want to rush out of the alley just now, and Ma Xiyu hissed miserably under his crotch, and fell to his knees on the ground. It turned out that someone had laid a stumbling rope at the entrance of the alley, and after Yuan Xi fell off the horse, the whole person was drowsy and a little confused. In a trance, he saw a few people dressed in Yuan Jun's service running over, so he shouted loudly: "I'm Yuan Xi, who will save me?" Take me away, I'll be rewarded......"

"Second son, see who I am."

The leader shouted in a deep voice, Yuan Xi looked at it intently, and said in a lost voice: "Brother Xin? ”
