Chapter 45
At the south gate of Shouchun, Liu Xuan and three others on the city wall have already eliminated the defenders.
Large troops are also waiting outside the city gate.

However, how to get into the city is still a problem.
Liu Xuan had already come up and could not go down to pick people up with the dragon spear.

There were 200 soldiers guarding the city gate in the city.

With the current combat power of the three of them, it should be no problem to kill these 200 people together.

The problem is that it's impossible to kill a sentinel so silently.

Once the city's defenders are alerted, the three of them may have to be found here.

But at this moment, a loud shouting of killing came from the north city gate.

It turned out that three groups of Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Lu Bu had arrived.

A horse galloped forward, and the soldiers on the horse shouted,

"Your Majesty has an order to quickly support the North Gate."

The soldiers on horseback rushed to the south gate and ordered to the centurion who was guarding the south gate,

"The enemy is attacking the north gate with all their strength. Leave a few people to guard the city gate while the rest follow me to support the north gate."

The fighting in the north lasted for more than ten days, and the soldiers in the city were well prepared.
After hearing what the messenger said, the centurion immediately ordered a small team to stay at the south gate.
Then he led the rest of the soldiers and rushed towards the north gate.

Seeing this scene, the three people on the city wall couldn't help but smile at each other.

It seems that God is going to kill Yuan Shu.

The three of them did not hesitate any longer. There was only one small team left in the city.

Only a dozen people.

In a few breaths, the three of them perfectly eliminated the team guarding the goal.

The city gate opened, and five thousand soldiers entered the city in an orderly manner.

Yuki Ying led the way, and the 5000 people bypassed the heavily guarded areas of the city and went straight to the palace.

In the Shouchun Palace, Yuan Shu looked gloomy and sickly.
The bloodshot eyes were full of resentment.

After proclaiming himself emperor for more than half a year, Yuan Shu briefly enjoyed the rights of a king.

In the days that followed, Yuan Shu was tired of coping with the criticism from all sides.

But it's too late to regret now. The major forces in the Central Plains only need an excuse to attack each other.

Besides, the excuse to attack Yuan Shu is so easy to use.

Not only can they gain territory, but they can also gain prestige by becoming famous.

"Your Majesty, the defenders at the North Gate can no longer hold back."

Yuan Shu listened to the guard's report and said angrily,

"The Shouchun City is out of reach. There are ten thousand defenders in my city. How can the mere north gate not be defended?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the enemy's offensive outside the city is too fierce. Although the defenders in the city have a geographical advantage, there are so many enemy generals that no one on our side can balance them. Sooner or later, we will be attacked on the city. Do we defend or retreat? , I hope your Majesty will make a decision quickly."

"Evacuate? Where to retreat?" Yuan Shu yelled in a sharp voice,
"All my soldiers are here in Shouchun, and all the wealth I have accumulated over the years is also there. The enemy has already reached the city gate. Do you want me to withdraw?"

"It's all you useless mediocre people who mistook me. Someone, pull him down and chop him up."

Yuan Shu stood up and gasped, "Everyone who blocks me should be killed, should be killed!"

The imperial guards in front did not dare to disobey Yuan Shu, so they directly pulled the general out of the palace gate and chopped him down.

The civil and military officials standing in front of the palace knew about Yuan Shu's temper, but no one dared to say anything.
And at this time, no one can think of any good ideas.

But Yuan Shu in the palace suddenly smiled sadly, looked at a counselor below the stage and said,

"Yang Hui, when we recruited civilians a few days ago, have you arrested all the people I asked you to arrest?"

A thin counselor came out from the bottom. This man looked somewhat similar to Yang Hong, Ji Ling's former military advisor.It was Yang Hui, Yang Hong's brother.

"Back to Your Majesty, three thousand young children and old women have been imprisoned in the Imperial City Prison. Do you want to use them now?"

"Not at this time, when will it be?"

Yuan Shu said to Yang Hui with a ferocious expression: "Yang Hui, you came up with this plan. It's up to you to arrange it. First, bring two thousand to the city wall to see if Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others dare to take action."

A cruel smile flashed across Yang Hui's face, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Yan Xiang, the chief clerk, felt something bad when he saw this, so he stepped forward and asked:
"Your Majesty, I dare to ask, what strategy did Yang Hui come up with that requires the use of young children and old women?"

Yuan Shu curled his lips and said, "Hmph, Cao Cao claims to act on behalf of the emperor, and Liu Bei always says he cares about his people when he meets everyone. I want to see if my three thousand unarmed people defend the city, whether they will kill or not."

"Your Majesty, no, Your Majesty." Upon hearing this, Yan Xiang immediately knelt on the ground and begged, "Your Majesty must not listen to Yang Hui's vicious plan. This is to trap Your Majesty into being unkind and to bring infamy for all generations."

Yang Hui glanced at Yan Xiang disdainfully. Yan Xiang was always targeting their brothers in the court and won Yuan Shu's trust. He had long disliked Yan Xiang. When he saw that Yan Xiang was trying to stop him from doing meritorious service, he pointed at Yan Xiang and scolded him. road,

"Yan Xiang, the enemy is about to attack the city, but you are still trying to save face? In your eyes, His Majesty's life as emperor is not as good as the life of three thousand untouchables, right?"

"Three thousand young children and old women are His Majesty's subjects. They should be loyal to Your Majesty. If the enemy army really kills them, it is because the enemy army is unkind. It is Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Lu Bu who bear the infamy. What does it have to do with Your Majesty?" ?”

"Do you have to see His Majesty die at the hands of Cao Cao and Liu Cao?"

After hearing what Yang Hui said, Yuan Shu's face became even more gloomy.

"Yan Xiang, do you want to see me die, or do you want to see three thousand untouchables die?"

"This~" Yan Xiang was forced by this question to be unable to answer, but looked at Yuan Shu with tears streaming down his face, "Your Majesty, please think twice."

"Pull it off, you are a woman's benevolent thing." Yuan Shu was still reluctant to attack Yan Xiang after all.

"Yang Hui, go and do it immediately. If anyone stops you, kill him."

. . .

The battle at the North Gate has reached its most intense moment.

On Liu Bei's side, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei climbed up the ladder in person. Under the cover of his personal guards, they had reached a distance of only more than one meter from the city wall.
Lu Bu on the other side was even more brave, waving the Fangtian Painted Halberd to deflect all the oncoming rolling stones and arrows.

One step further and you can climb the city wall.

Lu Bu kicked his feet hard, and his body jumped upwards, flying over the city like an eagle.

"Die!"

Lu Bu wielded Fang Tian's painted halberd with one arm like a killing god,
One halberd is enough to kill all enemies in front of you.

At this critical moment, several four or five-year-old children suddenly appeared in front of the defenders on the city wall.

Those young children were grabbed by the defenders on their backs, their bodies pushed out of the city wall, their feet floating in the air, and they cried miserably.

Lu Bu was stunned by this sudden scene in the air.

On the battlefield, two armies were fighting, and a row of children suddenly appeared in the forest of swords and swords.
This scene was something Lu Bu had never imagined.

Lu Bu couldn't swing this halberd no matter what.

Fortunately, Lu Bu was physically strong. At this critical moment, he twisted his body in the air.
The Fang Tian painted halberd in his hand drew an arc diagonally, grazing the young child's head and slashing at the female wall.

But in this way, Lu Bu's body lost its center of gravity and could not fall on the city wall.

He had no choice but to let his body fall, and then grabbed the ladder from his left back to stabilize his body.

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu on the other side also had to withdraw their weapons when they were about to ascend the city.

Under hundreds of meters of city walls, amid a confrontation of tens of thousands of people,
All the shouts of killing stopped, and only the heart-rending cries of children echoed on the city walls.
