Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 23

Finished!

This was what Gongsun Zan's general was thinking at this time.

The opponent even used the cover of the chariot to recoil the cavalry!
The fate of the cavalry being close to the heavy infantry is almost at the mercy of others!

His whole body was icy cold. He had seen this scene in the battle of Jieqiao three years ago. It was so similar!

At that time, his boss, Yan Gang, led Baima Yicong to the battle, but was shot down at close range by the [-] crossbowmen lying under the shields of the opponent.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the opponent's General Qu Yi slapped his horse and brandished his sword, rushed into his own formation, and beheaded Yan Gang.

He saw a cavalry rush out from the opponent's formation, straighten the horse and charge towards his own cavalry, his posture was exactly the same as that of Qu Yi back then!
The general shouted: "Don't look back! Go ahead to survive!"

He picked up his horse spear and rushed towards Qu Yi on foot, "White Horse Yi Cong, fight to the death and never retreat!"

Qu Yi's war horse flew by his side.

Yuan Xi watched the film fall slowly while clutching his chest, and sighed to Zhao Yun beside him: "Gongsun Zan has many talented people under his command, but he can't know how to use them well."

"Back then, Yan Gang and Gongsun Zan formed a friendship and formed the White Horse Righteous Cong, but Gongsun Zan was suspicious, took his military power, and let him act as the vanguard in the Battle of Jieqiao, and died."

"Brother Zhao is the same. Because of Liu Shijun's affairs, he is suspicious, and he brought his infantry to attack Beixin City. How is it different from sending him to death?"

"Gongsun Zan is so suspicious of everyone around him, how can he achieve great things?"

After hearing this, Zhao Yun stared at the back of Qu Yi who was criss-crossing the battlefield: "I heard that your father, Yuan Benchu, also killed his general Qu Yi because of suspicion."

Yuan Xi understood that Zhao Yun, who had participated in the Battle of Jieqiao, should have recognized Qu Yi. After all, Qu Yi at that time could be said to have become famous in the first battle, and everyone knew about it.

In fact, Yuan Shao sent people to kill Qu Yi, which was far from being as simple as Qu Yi's meritorious deeds.

Yuan Shao repelled Gongsun Zan, led the victorious army back south, passed through Boluojin to repair the troops, and suddenly reported that the soldiers of Wei County had rebelled. More than tens of thousands of troops from more than a dozen troops of the army have gathered in Yecheng.

Yecheng is the seat of Wei County, and also the core city of Jizhou. Most of Yuan Junzhong's civil and military family members live in Yecheng, and of course Yuan Shao's family is also included.

What's even more inexplicable is that Yecheng was occupied without warning.

So upon hearing the news, everyone at the banquet turned pale with horror, and some even burst into tears immediately.Yuan Shao was calm at this time, his expression hardly changed, and he stabilized the morale of the army just now.

"Heroes" records: All the guests who sit on the seat and those who have their homes in Ye all turn pale with fear, or cry, but Shao's appearance remains unchanged and he is calm.

Yuan Shao's performance at that time, during the battle with Jieqiao, leading more than a hundred men to encounter two thousand Gongsun Zan's cavalry, commanding himself with arrows to repel the enemy, was all a general's style.

Yuan Xi had to admit that although his cheap father, Yuan Shao, often surpassed ghosts with the wind, he often surpassed the gods with the wind.

No one is perfect in the world, and those who can do great things have some advantages.

Yuan Xi sometimes wondered, what happened to Yuan Shao later, and then he slowly changed, becoming the person Cao Cao said was bold and cowardly, always planning, who cherished his life when he did great things, and forgot his life when he saw small gains. ?

The rebellion in Yecheng finally ended with Yuan Shao leading the army to behead Yu Du, the leader of the Black Mountain Army, and Jizhou Muhushou who was instigating behind the scenes.

Jizhou Muhushou was a pawn sent by Liangzhou tycoons such as Li Jue and Guo Si who held Emperor Xian hostage. He instigated the occupation of Yecheng, and he was silent beforehand, so it is very likely that there are insiders.

The Liangzhou warriors under Yuan Shao's subordinates were naturally suspected.

Qu Yi was born in Liangzhou, and Yuan Shao suspected that he was also involved in this matter, and just now there was an incident of ambush and hacking Qu Yi to death.

But Yuan Xi felt that things were far from that simple.

"Three Kingdoms · Emperor Wu Ji" records: More than [-] people including Yu Du, Bai Rao, and Sui Gu from Heishan attacked Wei County and Dong County.Taizu led troops into Dongjun, attacked Bairao in Puyang, and broke it.Yuan Shao was the prefect of Dongjun because of his cousin Taizu, and ruled Dongwuyang.

This happened in the second year of Chuping (192). From then on, Cao Cao got the capital to stand on his own. In the third year of Chuping, when Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shu in Yanzhou, he gradually broke away from Yuan Shao's control.

Therefore, what happened in Yecheng in the fourth year of Chuping happened quite strangely, and there were many mysteries in it, including the Lu Bu Zhang Miao rebellion that happened in later generations, all of which were inextricably linked.

Zhang Miao and Cao Cao were life and death friends, but after Yuan Shao had a rift with Miao, Cao Cao repeatedly killed Miao.

At that time, Dong Zhao's younger brother Dong Fan was in Zhang Miao's army, so Dong Zhao, who was originally highly valued by Yuan Shao, was suspected and forced to flee, but was secretly intercepted by Yuan Xi and stayed.

Yuan Xi felt that everything was in a mess. He vaguely found the thread, but lacked the key evidence, so he could only peel it off bit by bit. Finding the clue did not happen overnight.

These things are too complicated to explain on the battlefield, Yuan Xi immediately said to Zhao Yun: "Don't suspect people, but don't doubt people."

"If Brother Zhao can help me, I will entrust my life to Brother Zhao."

"If brother Zhao thinks I'm unbearable in the future, he can leave at any time, and I won't stop him."

"If you violate this statement, the sky will be struck by lightning, and the family will be cut off."

After Zhao Yun heard this, he thought to himself that no matter whether the words were true or not, it was the first time he saw someone who kept his expression on his face and swore against his family every time.

He dismounted immediately and said, "If General Cheng does not give up, Zilong is willing to contribute to his meager strength."

Yuan Xi was overjoyed, quickly got off his horse, and held Zhao Yun's hand tightly.

Zhao Yun felt the strength coming from the opponent's hand, and wondered if you were a little too enthusiastic?
Yuan Xi was excited. Although Zhao Yun took refuge in him temporarily, his loyalty was calculated as [-]. At this time, Zhao Yun was only [-] at most.

But this can be regarded as one of the most remarkable things he has done since he came to this world!

Feeling the enthusiasm in Yuan Xi's hands, Zhao Yun withdrew his hands calmly, and said, "Please allow me to join the battle, General."

Yuan Xi was startled: "Bai Ma Yicong was Brother Yun's colleague, but can he do it?"

Zhao Yun said coldly: "Before Yi Jingcheng, they besieged me and my subordinates. There is no friendship at all. Now each is the master, and Yun Duan will not be the first and the second."

Yuan Xi was overjoyed, nodded his head in agreement, and saw Zhao Yun mount his horse with his gun and charge into the white horse righteous formation.

When Yuan Xi saw him, he felt a sense of pride. He picked up a horse spear, mounted the horse and rushed up.

In less than half an hour, hundreds of Ma Yicong died and fled, leaving only a few who fought to the death and were surrounded by everyone.

Yuan Xi stopped the crowd, pulled his horse up to them, and said, "I can let you go."

He pointed to the body of General Wuming who was killed by Qu Yi earlier, "Take him back and bury him properly."

"Send a word to Gongsun Zan, he has no tolerance for others, and if he kills his loyal subordinates, he will definitely lose."

Those people looked at each other, and finally bowed to Yuan Xi, and left with the body of the unknown general.
