Chapter 253: Yuan Shao dies
They all looked up at the tent from time to time with solemn expressions.
After a while, several doctors lifted the curtain and walked out.
When the people saw this, they gathered around them.
"Doctor, how is my father doing?"
"Is there any big problem with the lord?"
They asked, babbling.
But seeing that the expressions of these doctors were quite heavy, the leader sighed and said slowly,
"We have tried our best, but the situation of Jizhou Mu is really not optimistic."
"But Jizhou Mu has woken up at this moment, and he let you all in."
When they heard this, they did not hesitate any longer, and immediately rushed into the tent.
In the tent, Yuan Shao was lying quietly on the bed.
He did not have the slightest pretension before, but his face was pale and extremely haggard.
Seeing everyone walk in, a sickly flush appeared on his face, and he forced the sick body to sit up.
"Father!"
"Lord!"
Everyone saluted Yuan Shao in unison.
Yuan Shao nodded, coughed lightly, and then said,
"How is the movement of Cao Cao's soldiers and horses?"
"Back to my father, Cao Cao has landed on the north bank of the Yellow River, but he just stood still and did not move."
Yuan Shang said respectfully,
"As long as my father returns to Yecheng and regroups the army, we can still fight Cao Cao to the death!"
"Idiot!"
Yuan Shao's face was full of helplessness, and he smiled bitterly,
"I'm afraid I won't have this opportunity for my father......"
He struggled with an army of nearly 200,000, but he didn't even have a chance to fight Cao Cao head-on.
was led by Yang Ling from beginning to end, and finally ended up in a big defeat!
For Yuan Shao, it was not only a physical blow, but also a fatal blow to him mentally.
This made him completely bold!
"Father's ......"
Yuan Shang looked at Yuan Shao with complicated eyes.
Yuan Shao let out a long sigh, waved his hand, and said with a forced smile,
"The time for the Father is short, and I have called you all in to give instructions for the future."
Although Yuan Shao was defeated by Yang Ling, he did not hurt the foundation, and his power was still extremely strong.
His posthumous affairs are not only related to Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang and other sons, but also related to the future glory and wealth of everyone.
Therefore, when they heard this, their hearts sank, and they pricked up their ears to listen quietly.
"After I die, you should focus on Xiansi and assist him wholeheartedly, so as to resist Cao Cao!"
Yuan Shao said word by word.
But as soon as he said this, everyone's expressions were quite strange.
Among the heirs, Yuan Shao has always loved the handsome third son Yuan Shang, so much so that many ministers and generals feel that it will be Yuan Shang who will inherit Yuan Shao's position in the future.
No one expected that when Yuan Shao was about to die, he would still choose his eldest son Yuan Tan!
Guo Tu, Xin Ping and others, who had a good relationship with Yuan Tan, couldn't help but show joy on their faces.
And they have contradictory trials and disciplines, but their expressions have changed!
As for Yuan Shang, his face was even more ugly!
"Xianfu! Your father has always loved you, but you are not as capable as your brother...... If you guys go in the same room again, it will only be cheaper! ”
Yuan Shao coughed violently a few times, but his face suddenly became extremely ruddy.
"Remember, don't fight with your brother!"
Yuan Shang knew in his heart that his father had run out of oil and dried up, and it was just the last return to light!
He held back the grief in his heart and nodded heavily.
"The child obeys!"
Yuan Shao nodded at this time, revealing a smile of relief,
"I have fought on the battlefield all my life, but I don't want to be defeated by Yang Ling in the end, and I am very unwilling to ......"
By the end of the sentence, his voice gradually deepened.
By the time everyone reacted, Yuan Shao's face was serene, and he was already out of breath!
"Father!"
"Lord!"
Everyone was teary-eyed, and their voices were already choked.
Across Hebei, Yuan Shao, who was strong and strong, died suddenly!
Yuan Shao had a total of four sons.
The eldest son, Yuan Tan, was in Liyang and was in a stalemate with Cao Cao.
After covering Yuan Shao's retreat, the second son Yuan Xi led the lone soldiers to retreat to Liyang and joined Yuan Tan's soldiers.
The fourth son, Yuan Mai, is still young and still in Yecheng.
Therefore, everyone took the third son Yuan Shang as the main and temporarily handled Yuan Shao's future affairs.
Soon a white cloth was hung in the camp, and everyone wore linen and filial piety!
It's night.
In Yuan Shao's Mourning Hall, Yuan Shang is guarding his father's spirit.
But I saw that the judge, Feng Ji, Su You and others came together to incense Yuan Shao.
"Childe must take care of his body, don't be too sad."
The judge sighed and comforted softly.
"A few gentlemen have a heart."
Yuan Shang's eyes were red, and he said with a forced smile.
Judging and Feng Ji glanced at each other, but Feng Ji said slowly,
"Now that the lord has died, I don't know what the third prince plans to do next?"
Yuan Shang's heart tightened, and he pretended to be casual and authentic,
"What do you mean, sir?"
Judge the deep voice,
"We are loyal to the third son, so we will open the skylight and say something."
"Although before the death of the lord, we were asked to serve the eldest prince as the lord and continue to conquer Cao Cao."
"But in our hearts, the third son's talent is far better than that of the eldest son."
"Therefore, we plan to serve the third prince as the master and inherit the great cause of the lord!"
Hearing these words, Yuan Shang's heart was full of joy, and he almost burst out happy.
But he couldn't hold back his excitement and pretended to hesitate and said,
"But my father's last words before he died, where are they, what should I do?"
General Su You smiled and said in a low voice,
"So what? Just arrest all those who have heard the last words of the lord today. If you refuse to be loyal to your son, then you will click directly......"
He made a gesture of decapitation!
Yuan Shang was silent, and after thinking about it for a long time, he finally couldn't resist the temptation of power, and nodded heavily,
"Okay, just according to what General Su said!"
When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed, and they all took the order and left.
The other side.
In Xin Ping and Xin Bi's tent, Guo Tu was talking with the two brothers and the strategist Xun Chen.
"Don't look at the lord who ordered the eldest prince to inherit the great cause, but in case the third prince has ambitions, how should we deal with ourselves?"
Xin Ping glanced at Xin Bi and Xun Chen, and then shook his head,
"Now that the lord's bones are not cold, will the third prince dare to do it?"
"How dare he? As long as we are controlled, the third prince can pretend to be sent to the lord! ”
Guo Tu was anxious.
Although he was not good at leading troops into battle, he was extremely proficient in power struggles.
If it was him, as early as when Yuan Shao lost his breath, he would have controlled Xin Ping and the others.
"So what do you think we should do?"
Xin Ping hesitated.
"Needless to say, of course, I just slipped away, and I went to Liyang to join the eldest prince first!"
Guo Tu didn't want to say anything.
In today's situation, if you stay by Yuan Shang's side for a while, there will be a moment of danger!
Just as Xin Ping, Xin Bi, and Xun Chen were hesitating, suddenly a soldier rushed in.
