It has been the seventh day since the siege of Tunliu City by the Yellow Turban Vanguard Army, and the "moth thieves" outside the city have no sign of retreating, but are camping and preparing for a protracted war.

Nearly 5,000 soldiers captured by the Yellow Turban Vanguard Army were disarmed and transferred to the county seat of Changzi under special guard; Wang He, Li Feng, Liu He, and Han Wei were also escorted to Crouching Tiger City to wait for Zhao Xing's fall.

Ding Yuan looked at the remnants of his defeated soldiers, all of them wilted and had no courage to fight to the death, and he was also deflated in his heart, not knowing where the way out was.

Actually, there is still a way out, but this way out makes people a little ashamed to say it. Where is the way out? Wang Kai suggested surrendering to Zhao Xing and taking refuge in Zhao Xing, so that at least one life could be saved, and this was the way out.

Before Ding Yuan issued an edict from the imperial court claiming that "Zhao Xing took refuge in the Yellow Turban Army, and even a general under Zhang Jiao", he knew that Zhao Xing could not obey Zhang Jiao's orders at all, as long as he stayed in Bingzhou for a period of time, everyone knew that the party's strict prevention and control of Taiping Taoism was basically digging three feet into the ground and showing no mercy. It is precisely because Zhao Xing so resolutely resisted Taiping Taoism that even the soldiers guarding Huguan and Jiguan also strictly checked the passing Yellow Turban Taoists, resulting in the "March 5th" when the Yellow Turban was 1u-n in the world, and the state boundary was 1-ng calm and stable.

If Ding Yuan knew that he had raised troops on the front foot, and he went to Shangdang to crusade against Zhao Xing with a clear and confused result, he would have been cut off by the Yellow Turban Army, and now he was surrounded by the 20,000 Yellow Turban Pioneer Army, and Ding Yuan would not have been killed and would not have left Jinyang.

Now there is still time for Ding Yuan to sigh, but Liang Y-O, who has no regrets, can only bitterly support the hope of miraculous appearance or final destruction.

"Report to the lord, General Lu is back, ask to see him outside the city!" Strategist Wang Kai suddenly broke into the account and reported loudly to Ding Yuan when Ding Yuan was worried.

Did a miracle really happen?

"General Lu is really a righteous man and a believer! Please enter the city quickly!" Ding Yuan suddenly stood up from his seat and said in surprise.

"Lord, General Na Lu just came on a horse, and ......" Wang Kai gave Ding Yuan a basin of cold water, and he still had something to say.

After hearing Wang Kai's words, Ding Yuan, who had not been happy for three minutes, sat back a little bitterly, stretched out his right hand and waved at Wang Kai twice weakly, and said in frustration: "If the military advisor has something to say, Ding can still stand it." ”

"General Lu came this time, but it was Zhao Xing's banner, and it was clear that he had taken refuge in the party...... Wang Kai stopped here, and the following words were already very clear: Lu Bu came to negotiate with Ding Yuan on behalf of Zhao Xing.

"Order someone to open the city M-N and welcome General Lu into the city, as long as he does not take refuge in the Yellow Turban Moth Thief, we still have a way to live. Ding Yuan finally understood it this time and didn't make any more mistakes.

"Sin will Lu Bu bow to his father-in-law," in Ding Yuan's tent, Lu Bu said with some shame.

"Feng Xian, don't blame yourself, I am trapped under the dangerous wall, and it is helpless for you to switch to the party......" Ding Yuan knew that it was obviously useless to point at Lu Bu's nose and scold the "shameless traitor", but it might be evil to go to the party and block the last way to live, so he generously forgave Lu Bu's betrayal.

"Bu thanks his father-in-law for his magnanimity!" Lu Bu knelt down and kowtowed to Ding Yuan three times in a row.

"I don't know what Feng Xian is talking about?" Ding Yuan asked the common concerns of Wang Kai, Xu Yan, Qin Yilu and others.

"Feng Xian is here, first, I want to inform you that your family was transferred to Shangdang Crouching Tiger City in advance by Zhao Guochang, the general of Pingdong, when Jinyang City was broken. Lu Bu first said a good news that made everyone feel a lot more at ease.

Sure enough, hearing that his family was not harmed, everyone's senses for Zhao Xing immediately improved a lot.

"Second, on the orders of General Zhao, I came to discuss with you the matter of joining forces to break the Yellow Turban," Lu Bu then said a topic that made the people in the tent pay more attention.

"I wonder what General Zhao proposes?" Ding Yuan asked.

"This, General Zhao didn't propose, just had a request......" Lu Bu looked at the few people around Ding Yuan with some hesitation, and his eyes were clearly telling Ding Yuan that this could only be said to Ding Yuan alone.

Ding Yuan immediately retreated from the people around him, leaving only Lu Bu alone in the tent......

After half an hour, Lu Bu came out of Ding Yuan's tent with a sad face, with tears on his face, and said to Wang Kai and the other three who were guarding outside the tent: "The righteous father did not want to cast above, showed weakness to Zhao Xing, and suddenly died of grief and anger in a fit of anger, and when he was dying, he entrusted everything behind him to the ......."

The three of them heard Lu Bu say that Ding Yuan was angry to death, and hurriedly rushed into the big tent, and sure enough, they saw that there were large blood stains on the corners of Ding Yuan's mouth and Xiong's mouth, and he fell hard in the tent without breathing.

Since Ding Yuan left the Assassin Shi Seal and other items to Lu Bu and let Lu Bu deal with the aftermath, the three people who had already moved to join the party did not ask much about the cause of Ding Yuan's death, and said: "Now that Lord Assassin Shi is a violent soldier, there are still 5,000 soldiers left in the city, and I ask General Lu to find a way out for us!"

"Don't worry, General Zhao has no intention of harming him, and he has made it clear when Lu came that you can still be officials in Bingzhou in the future!" Lu Bu said something that made Wang Kai and the others feel more at ease.

Later, Ding Yuan's personal soldiers and sh-guards also rushed into the tent, and the three of them testified for Lu Bu one after another, and Ding Yuan died of a violent illness himself. Although the pro-soldiers and sh-guards had a lot of doubts in their hearts, they did not dare to ask more, so they had to retreat resignedly. They all knew the ferocity of the flying general Lu Bu, and who would dare to go to Lu Bu for trouble after Ding Yuan's death.

"Brothers, don't worry, since you have decided to join the party, General Zhao will definitely bring a large army to stay in the cantonment and cut off the Yellow Turban Moth thieves and rescue us from difficulties!" Lu Bu stood on the counting platform and said loudly to the soldiers in the audience. Just now, Wang Kai and others have announced the death and "last words" of the assassin history, and everyone now unanimously elected Ding Yuan's righteous son Lu Buwei, determined to join the party in accordance with the assassin's will.

"Willing to follow General Lu to serve the party!" The Taiyuan soldiers in the audience heard Lu Bu say that as long as he took refuge in the party, Zhao Xing would come to rescue him, and they expressed their loyalty.

Subsequently, the county seat of Tunliu was full of vegetarian food to see off "Comrade Ding Yuan", who was worried about the country and the people.

It was the dead of night, and in Ding Yuan's big tent in the past, now a coffin was placed in the middle, and only Lu Bu was sitting on the edge of the coffin in the big tent, talking to Ding Yuan who had turned into a ghost in the coffin with a smile on his face. This scene is really weird!

"Father-in-law, you can endure it for one night for the time being, and at noon tomorrow, General Zhao will raise troops to retreat the Yellow Turban. At that time, the cloth will arrange for the henchmen to transfer you out of the city with the coffin, and in the future, the stepfather only needs to hide in the Crouching Tiger City with his n-ng grandson, and there will be no more disputes in the world......"

"Alas, now that he can end up like this, it can be regarded as pitiful, there is no Ding Jianyang in this world, only Shangdang Ding Moyu" There was a sigh full of vicissitudes from the coffin. Through this sentence, it can be seen that Ding Yuan's heart of retreat, even the word change from "Jianyang" to "Moyu", showing a posture of indisputability, which can be regarded as an attitude of self-preservation.

A battle that should have been tense and endless, under Zhao Xing's generosity and tolerance, under the joint performance of Lu Bu and Ding Yuan, the curtain call was perfect. The more than 5,000 soldiers in the city no longer have to suffer the pain of swords and arrows, and Zhao Xing does not have to have a headache about how to deal with Ding Yuan before the army.

Zhao Xing perfectly solved the problem of the fate of Ding Yuan and the remnants of the soldiers, but inadvertently caused a historical case - Ding Yuan's violent death became a suspenseful case in the Zhongping period and remained in the long river of history, and was deeply investigated and debated by later historians.

Hundreds of years later, when the territory of the Han Empire had reached as far as the banks of the Rhine River, someone jumped out from the west to correct the name of his ancestor Ding Yuan, claiming that Ding Yuan was in a fake death account that day, and then hid incognito in Shangdang Crouching Tiger City, became a rich man, and then went to the Western Regions with the Western Expeditionary Army, and finally settled his home in the West, and he has a family tree to testify!

Subsequently, a group of idle historians began to rummage through boxes and cabinets to find relevant clues and historical evidence......
