Chapter 242: The Rising Tide (3)
Yuan Shao arranged for spies to poison the refugee camp, causing thousands of refugees to die and tens of thousands of people to be poisoned and unconscious.
Zhou Tian received an order and secretly complained, can he do it? But the general has never been so angry, even if he is familiar with Zhou Tian, he didn't dare to persuade him at this time, so he hurriedly carried out the order in desperation.
In fact, Yuan Shao's move was just to contain Zhuang Shaoyou, so that he would have no time to look west, so that they could cooperate to eliminate Dong Zhuo, but who would have thought that a brilliant plan actually aroused Zhuang Shaoyou's anger, touched his scales, and decided to kill Yuan Shao, a despicable villain, at all costs!
When Zhuang Shaoyou pacified the refugees in the south of the city, the West Garden in the west of the city was a resurgence of waves, and on the eighth night of the death of Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty, a second bloody battle broke out here.
Zhuang Shaoyou's messenger has not yet arrived in the West Garden, Ding Yuan's men and horses have been killed here, really caught Dong Zhuo off guard, soon, Yuan Shao's men and horses also drove out from the West Gate, into the attack on Dong Zhuo, after the initial chaos, under the command of Li Ru, Dong Zhuo's army finally drove out the Ding Yuan Yuan Shao coalition army that invaded the West Garden, and stuck to the West Garden.
In an hour's effort, Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army lost more than 2,000 people and thousands of wounded, and the losses were insignificant! And these are all Dong Zhuo's descendants! Dong Zhuo's flesh hurt to death, and he hated it so much that his teeth itched, regardless of the obstruction of his subordinates, he personally put on the battle and joined the battle group, and the main general's personal battle aroused the morale of the Xiliang army, and the wildness suddenly rose, and soon recovered the decline The two sides fell into a stalemate.
Looking at Zhuang Shaoyou's side again, when Zhang Zhongjing led a group of doctors to rescue the poisoned refugees, the mood of the onlookers gradually calmed down, how could the general be such a good person, how could he harm us? If the general wants to harm us, then why bother so much to save us? Wouldn't it be easier to just ignore it and let us starve to death? There must be a traitor who did evil and deliberately framed the general! It's so hateful!
Zhuang Shaoyou saw that the poisoned refugees had begun to be rescued, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as much as he could, he could recover as much as he could! Then he got up, looked at the hundreds of thousands of refugees in the field with a calm face, and said in a loud voice:
"Ladies and gentlemen, today's incident is my Zhuang Shaoyou's negligence, mismanagement, and being taken advantage of by traitors, resulting in the death of thousands of villagers, and my Zhuang Shaoyou can't stand the villagers!"
After speaking, he bowed deeply to the refugees, and the refugees in the field had already figured out the joints after calming down, and when they saw that the general actually apologized to us, the suspicion in his heart was even more gone, and they persuaded each other with good words.
Some of these clever refugees also noticed that something was wrong, and organized relatives and friends to arrest those who took the lead and twisted them to Zhuang Shaoyou's men. Soon, dozens of ill-intentioned instigators were spontaneously pulled out by the refugees, and they knelt in front of the refugees one by one.
The refugees were raging and wanted to come forward to kill people, but they were stopped by Zhuang Shaoyou, Yuan Benchu, you are unkind, I am unjust! You must let the people of the world know that you are a despicable and shameless villain!
Seeing Zhuang Shaoyou speak to stop him, although the refugees were puzzled, they still stopped out of trust in Zhuang Shaoyou, but those instigators were already blue and swollen, if they were slow for half a moment, they would definitely die!
Zhuang Shaoyou walked up to the instigators, drew his sword and pointed at one of them and asked:
"You are Yuan Shao's people?"
The group of instigators saw the cold light on the Qiankun Sun and Moon Sword, and felt Zhuang Shaoyou's evil spirit, and they were suddenly frightened, but one of them still quibbled: "Zhuang Shaoyou! You're a scumbag! Everybody gets it! β
Zhuang Shaoyou glanced at the hard-mouthed man, but he didn't pay attention to it, but chose a guy who was trembling and walked over, pointed at his throat and asked, "Tell me, are you Yuan Shao's person?" β
The man raised a pair of thief eyebrows and rat eyes, and asked worriedly, "If the little one admits it, will the general let the little one go?" β
Zhuang Shaoyou shook his head resolutely and said: "If you admit it, General Ben will give you a good time with his own hands and leave a whole corpse, if you don't admit it, General Ben will hand you over to them!" β
At this time, the crowd of refugees was furious, shouting in unison: "Kill him, kill him!" β
The man listened to Zhuang Shaoyou's words, his eyes were full of despair, but when he looked at the group of refugees who were so enthusiastic that his eyes were red, he was suddenly frightened, gritted his teeth, and said, "I am!" β
Zhuang Shaoyou stabbed the man's throat with a sword without hesitation, and a stream of hot blood shot out, staining Zhuang Shaoyou's armor red, which looked particularly hideous in the dim moonlight, and the long sword in his hand was waved, but it was not stained with a trace of blood, but also revealed a more penetrating edge.
"General Ben asks you one last time! Are you Yuan Shao's people? General Ben doesn't necessarily need your answers! β
The dozens of instigators were all frightened, and when they received the military order, they felt that the reward was rich, and the risk was not too great, so they did it, who would have thought that it would become the result today!
In fact, they are too naΓ―ve, even if they complete the task and go back alive, Yuan Shao will kill people, how can Yuan Shao, who has always cherished feathers, let others know about the dirty things he has done?
Those instigators thought about it and wanted to ask for a way to live, but this was obviously wishful thinking, and the person who scolded his mother just now scolded again: "Zhuang Shaoyou! You despicable villain! Lao Tzu will not let you go! β
Zhuang Shaoyou glanced at that person and guessed that this person was probably the commander of this operation, and his crime was unforgivable! So he commanded his subordinates: "Find out his details and destroy his nine clans!" Then hand this person over to everyone at their disposal! β
For the inhumane criminal law of exterminating the nine clans, Zhuang Shaoyou thought of using this kind of torture for the first time. It has to be said that the seeds of evil are often inherited, and it is also a good thing for society to completely destroy them, but under the domination of power, the original intention of this criminal law has been completely distorted, and it has become a tool to fight against dissidents, persecute the people, and maintain the rule of the dynasty.
When the man heard this, his eyes cracked, and he scolded even more unscrupulously: "Zhuang Shaoyou! You don't have to die well! You dare to destroy the nine clans of Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu won't let you go if you're a ghost! β
Zhuang Shaoyou couldn't bear it anymore and retorted: "Tens of thousands of innocent people died because of you, and it's light to destroy your nine clans!" β
The man froze for a moment, but then roared, "Fart! Lao Tzu is the captain of the Han Dynasty, they are just a group of ants, why do you destroy the nine clans of Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu is just carrying out military orders! If you have the ability, you will destroy the nine clans of the Yuan family! β
Zhuang Shaoyou said lightly: "Really? Aren't ants human? Then you are also an ant in the eyes of this general! As for Yuan Shao, don't worry about it! If General Ben doesn't kill Yuan Shao, Zhuang Shaoyou will write three words upside down! But you can't see it! β
The man was stunned for a moment, and the remaining dozens of instigators saw this, knowing that there was no hope of survival, and then looking at the appearance of the refugees who were going to eat people, it was obvious that the lieutenant's words just now completely angered the refugees, what is an ant? What happened to the Captain? What kind of prince will Xiangning have? Not to mention a little lieutenant?
So one by one they hurriedly shouted: "General! I am also Yuan Shao's person! β
"Me too!"
"I absolutely am!"
Zhuang Shaoyou said indifferently: "It's late! β
Then he turned and left, leaving behind him only the monstrous scolding mixed with a few miserable howls.
After dealing with the poisoning case, Zhuang Shaoyou handed over the south of the city to his subordinates to deal with, and he turned around and walked to the city, the next one, Yuan Benchu!
This side of the West Garden.
According to Li Ru's strategy, defend Ding Yuan and focus on attacking Yuan Shao. Dong Zhuo happily adopted, this plan really worked, Ding Yuanjun was indeed strong and had extraordinary combat power, but Yuan Shaojun was more than a step behind, and he soon couldn't support it.
Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and ordered: "Zhong Jian, press all your people, and defeat Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop tonight!" Otherwise, we're in danger! β
But just then, a scout came running in a hurry to report:
"General Qiyu, a quarter of an hour ago, Zhuang Shaoyou's whole army poured out, and the soldiers were divided into two ways, all the way to the direction of the palace! All the way to Simon! β
Yuan Shao was shocked when he heard this, and he was surprised inexplicably, in order to contain Zhuang Shaoyou tonight, he took double insurance, didn't it work? Impossible, right?! I didn't have time to think about it, so I made a decision and ordered a retreat, first guarding the west gate! Otherwise, it will be dangerous to be flanked by the front and back!
Yuan Shao's retreat made Ding Yuanjun suddenly passive, and he didn't dare to entangle any longer, so he had to retreat, Ding Yuan was very annoyed by this, seeing that he could defeat Dong Zhuo if he held on a little longer, he didn't want Yuan Shao to wilt at this time, he was really fucking powerless!
Dong Zhuojun suffered a big loss from the sneak attack, he panicked in his heart, and pursued Ding Yuanjun in anger, but he was defeated by Ding Yuanjun, and he also killed a lieutenant-level figure, and the pioneer Niu Fu was wounded!
Dong Zhuo received the report, was shocked, and hurriedly ordered to retreat, Li Ru was very helpless, although Dong Zhuo entrusted all the command to him, but Dong Zhuo was addicted to killing in the front, and he would not listen to the command at all, and he would go to hunt down Ding Yuan with a cadre of subordinates.
The two sides each withdrew their troops, only strengthening the vigilance, but there was no further conflict.
This battle only lasted less than two hours, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a blitzkrieg, but although the battle was short, the battle was extremely fierce, and Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army lost 3,000 soldiers before and after! Ding Yuan's army lost hundreds, but they were all elite cavalry, and Yuan Shao's army was also miserable, with 3,000 men and horses killed!
In less than two hours, nearly 7,000 people were killed, and the battle was fierce!
After collecting the troops, Ding Yuan immediately sent someone to question Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao was also annoyed and angry, but he still held back, briefly explained the situation of Zhuang Shaoyou's attack, and sent the messenger away, Yuan Shao questioned Chun Yuqiong:
"Zhong Jian, this Ding Yuan won't be another white-eyed wolf who can't be raised, right?"
Chun Yuqiong wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Lord, Na Ding was originally known for his fiery temper, so, so. β
