Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 837 Raiders of the North
"Three virtuous nephews, what are your plans for the future?" Wu Shun asked the three brothers of the Yuan family.

"The king of Shu is joking, the fate of our brothers is not something that can be decided by oneself, is it?"

At this time, Yuan Xi was the one who was calmer.

"You're right, this king can kill you all right now, or let you go."

Wu Shun deliberately spoke casually, just wanting to see the performance of the three brothers.

On the surface, Yuan Shang's heart was ashamed, and Yuan Tan became silent, as if he had accepted his fate.

Only Yuan Xi's performance was not bad, and he was able to answer Wu Shun, and he dared to speak stably!

"The king of Shu will kill if he wants to. The three of my brothers have suffered a crushing defeat today. They have no face to face their ancestors. Death is also a relief." Yuan Xi said.

At this moment, Yuan Xi didn't care about whether he died or not. The winner and the loser, the loser has no right to beg to be let go.

"I'm not in a hurry to kill you all. It seems that with Mi Zhu's help these years, you have grown a lot." Wu Shun seemed to be talking about something insignificant.

"Mi Zhu is your man?"

Yuan Xi already got the answer from Wu Shun's expression.

"I think you have a good personality, so Mi Zhu was asked to assist you very early on. It's a pity that you are not strong enough, and you haven't mastered Hebei for so long."

Wu Shun's words made Yuan Xi fall into an ice cellar.

It turned out that he had been arranged a long time ago, no wonder his elder brother and second younger brother's counselors abandoned them one by one. He gradually became the strongest of the three brothers from the weakest one.Now it seems that this is inseparable from the conspiracy of the Shu Kingdom.

"Hehe, the King of Shu is indeed the King of Shu, and he has Hebei at his fingertips." Yuan Xi said tragically.

"It's all over. In order to save Hebei from bleeding, can my nephew do me a little favor?" Wu Shun asked.

"How can Yuan Xi, a prisoner, help with the matter of the King of Shu?" Yuan Xi refused to help with such matters, not to mention that it was related to bloodshed and sacrifice.

"My nephew doesn't want to know what's going on?" Wu Shun said again.

It seems that Yuan Xi's mentality has exploded, and he has moved closer to Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang.

"Although my Wuling army captured Yecheng, there are still many people from the Yuan army scattered throughout Hebei. I want you to take the Wuling army and take them all to surrender." Wu Shun said directly and forcefully, with no room for rejection.

"Go, your Yuan family can still be a wealthy family, if you don't go, there is no need for the Yuan family to continue to exist!"

If it was a kind persuasion just now, it is a naked threat now!As for why he insisted on threatening Yuan Xi, the main reason is that he has a relatively weak temperament, and usually this kind of person has the richest feelings!Can't stand the threat.

"Second brother, you go, I don't want to die!" Yuan Shang stood up suddenly and advised Wu Shun.

"Third brother..." Yuan Xi was speechless. Yuan Shang, who was usually extremely strong, was afraid of death and cried like a child in front of the enemy.

"Second brother, go ahead and leave some seeds for my Yuan family." Yuan Tan also persuaded.

When the feudal lords compete for hegemony, the loser is very miserable, and Wu Shun has been extremely tolerant towards them.

"Alright King Shu, Yuan Xi has agreed to this matter!" Yuan Xi cupped his hands to Wu Shun.

"That's right, helping me is helping yourself, and helping yourself is helping the entire Yuan family." Wu Shun smiled.

Since Yuan Xi is willing to help, he doesn't need to attack one city after another, which is time-consuming and laborious.More importantly, as winter is approaching, the northern battlefield must end the fighting as soon as possible and return to the south.

The Xuzhou battlefield has entered the stage of fierce battle first!Wenpin commanded the army and the Sun-Cao coalition army to fight a small fight every three days, and a big fight every five days!With little chance to rest.

The [-] Xuanwu Legion was seriously exhausted. Although Wenpin did not ask for help, Wu Shun could feel the persistence of gritted teeth from the information.

In order not to add pressure to the northern battlefield, Wenpin used his own strength to fight against the armies of Wu and Lu in Xuzhou. If Shi Zhongyu hadn't provided timely support, Wenpin would have decided to fight to the death.

Wenpin is so powerful, of course Wu Shun wants to end the war in Hebei as soon as possible and send a large army back to help.

"When is the King of Shu going to send troops?" Yuan Xi asked.

Although his military ability is not very good, he still knows that it is not suitable to use soldiers in winter.What's more, the Wuling army is far away, and there is a big problem with supplies.

"After discussing with the military divisions, act immediately, the sooner the better." Wu Shun said.

……

In the twelfth lunar month of the 14th year of Jian'an, the Wuling Army took all of Hebei within a month.Of course, Yuan Xi's help is indispensable.

As long as he comes forward to persuade them to surrender, many cities will directly open their doors and surrender!Of course, there are also those who refuse to surrender and are directly attacked by Puyuan cannons.

Knowing that Wu Shun is all in Hebei, Ke Bi Neng was so frightened that he took his tribe and fled away. He was very afraid of Wu Shun's revenge!

……

"Yuan Shao gave birth to three idiots! How unreasonable! I am so angry!"

Outside the city of Xuzhou, inside the coalition camp, Cao Cao was so angry that he blew his beard and stared.

The whole of Hebei was captured by the Wuling army within a few months, which is astonishingly fast.

"Your Majesty, the Wuling Army's artillery fire is very powerful. Yuan Jun really can't stop those artillery. Failure is also expected." Xun You said.

"Cannon, I really don't know how the Wuling Army got it." Cao Cao said helplessly.

Why is there no skilled craftsman in Lu State to help him make magical weapons?

Hebei was defeated, and Wu Shunquan's occupation of Hebei was a foregone conclusion, and it would not help to get angry.After Cao Cao was in good spirits, he discussed with Xun You how to attack Xuzhou.

At this point in the war, the coalition forces had an overall advantage, and the Wuling army could only defend Xuzhou City.As long as the city is pulled out, Xuzhou will be theirs.

"The war in Hebei has come to an end, and the Wuling army is about to return to the army. Is there any good way to help me conquer Xuzhou City?"

"Your Majesty, Wenpin is good at defending, so tactics will probably not work. The only solution for now is to attack day and night without giving them time to rest and exhaust the Wuling army. In this way, the coalition forces will be able to attack Xuzhou City."

In mid-November, Wenpin was suppressed to the vicinity of Xuzhou City. In December, Wenpin and Shi Zhongyu were left with only one city in Xuzhou.

At this time, they didn't care about face, and directly asked for support.

Because if the fight continues, there will be no one in the Xuanwu Army and the Blue Wolf Army.

Also in December, Wu Shun left a part of the army to continue plundering in Hebei, and quietly led the cavalry to Xuzhou first.

The White Tiger Legion returned at the same time to help Xuzhou!It's just that their speed was slightly slower, and they were left behind by Wu Shun.

After the battle in Hebei is over, of course we have to go to Cao Cao and Sun Quan to settle the ledger!

At the end of December, Sun Cao's coalition forces began to storm Xuzhou City, attacking day and night, Wenpin and Shi Zhongyu had to alternate command.They cannot give the coalition forces the slightest chance.

On the last day of December, the weather was inexplicably good, and it was freezing in the morning.

Cao Cao originally wanted to attack the city, but he could only wait until the sun came out at noon and the ice on the city wall melted before attacking.

Early on, the soldiers of the coalition forces laid out a posture of besieging the city on three sides. Today will be a general attack.Because after many days of continuous attacks, the Wuling army was exhausted.
