Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 238 Breaking through Ye City (6)

"These soldiers and horses are an eyesore. Zhongda, what do you think should be done? How about sending a large army to destroy them?" Li Song smiled slightly.

"Report to the Prime Minister! Why bother! You only need one person to go, and with a good tongue, you can persuade these soldiers to surrender." Sima Yi said.

"Oh! I don't know who this person is?" Li Song looked at Sima Yi and said.

"Sima Yi is not talented! I am willing to help the prime minister solve problems! I will spare no expense!" Sima Yi bowed his hands and saluted.

"Oh! With Zhongda on hand, I can rest assured of the truth." Although Li Song was wondering how Sima Yi would persuade these places to surrender, he didn't ask, but trusted him immensely.

"Please trouble the Prime Minister and order the army to use force to deter the defenses of these places, so that Sima Yi can be more sure of persuading them to surrender." Sima Yi asked.

He intends to use force to threaten the defenses of these places that bully the good and fear the evil, and any Sima Yi will go to lobby to ensure that the defenses of these places will surrender obediently.

"Okay!" Li Song agreed to Sima Yi's request, and turned around to call the messenger, "Go ahead! Order Yu Wencheng to lead the troops of the headquarters, and go to the soldiers and horses of the six counties to frighten them. There is no need to attack."

"Promise!" The messenger responded, turned and left, and conveyed Li Song's order to Yu Wencheng.

The garrison station in the six counties suddenly heard the roar of war drums, and saw Yu Wencheng leading the army, waiting in front of the camp, with a murderous posture, and the frightening place was guarded by the six gods.

Just when they were frightened to death, Sima Yi appeared in front of them like a god descending from the earth. Sima Yi, with his three-inch tongue, persuaded the leader of the defense in these places, the Commander (Chang Shi), to wait for Sima Yi to leave. The local defenses in the county have switched sides.

When the news reached Yuan Shao's ears, he was so angry that he vomited blood again. Coupled with the news of Yuan Xi's sudden disappearance, he didn't slow down. He glanced at him, kicked his legs, and went directly to see King Yama.

Yuan Shao's death undoubtedly made the morale of Yecheng defenders even worse!Now Yuan Shao's civil and military staff completely panicked. Yuan Shao died, Yuan Xi disappeared, and Yecheng suddenly lost its backbone.

In the middle of the night, after Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan exchanged guards, Jiao Touch couldn't wait to climb to the top of the city, waiting for the signal from outside the city.

Today, dark clouds covered the moon, and it was pitch black. The weak charcoal fire in the brazier above the city was crackling and burning. Jiao Touch walked back and forth, looking out of the city from time to time, but it was still pitch black, and the hand holding the sword hilt was already wet with sweat. , every second is a torment.

"General! Look!" Suddenly, a soldier beside him pointed to the front and shouted loudly. Jiao Touch hurriedly looked up, took a step forward, and supported the parapet with both hands, trembling with excitement.

In the dark night, a torch appeared in front of Jiao Touch's eyes, and it was moving up, down, left, and right. This was a signal from Li Songjun.

"Quick! Respond with a torch!" Jiao Chu was overjoyed!He hurriedly ordered the soldiers to raise the torches to respond to each other.

"No!" The soldier replied, hastily lit the torches he had prepared, waved them outside the city in a specific pattern, and contacted Li Songjun outside the city.

Jiao Touch hastily turned around and ran down the city, came to the city gate, said to Zhang Nan: "Quickly open the city gate, follow me to welcome the Prime Minister's Master Wang into the city."

"Good!" Zhang Nan was also overjoyed!Hastily asked someone to open the city gate, and a group of soldiers stepped forward and slowly opened the heavy city gate.

"General! A signal is coming from the city of Yecheng!" Luo Cheng beside Xiang Yu pointed to the torch waving on the city, and said to Xiang Yu. This time Li Song appointed Xiang Yu as the general to capture Yecheng.

"Okay! Order the army to attack, and the city gates should have been opened inside to meet the king's division!" Xiang Yu said to the orderly soldiers behind him, and the orderly soldiers turned and left, conveying Xiang Yu's general orders, and Xiang Yu, Luo Cheng, Su Dingfang and others rode their horses towards Yecheng. , the army followed closely behind.

When Xiang Yu and others led the army to arrive, the gate of Ye City had just been opened by Zhang Nan and others. Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan came before Xiang Yu and others.

"Jiao Touch (Zhang Nan) has seen the generals! The gate of Ye City has been opened, and the king's master is invited to enter the city to put down the rebellion." Jiao Touch, Zhang Nan and Xiang Yu and others saluted.

"The prime minister said, the two lords have contributed a lot to taking down Ye City tonight! After the rebellious minister and traitor Yuan Shao is put down, and after returning to Beijing triumphantly, I will invite the emperor to add officials and ranks to the two lords." Su Dingfang said.

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your kindness! Jiao Touch (Zhang Nan) is willing to die for the Prime Minister!" Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan were overjoyed. The two of them worked so hard, not for the sake of being promoted, but now they are paid off. Wish, naturally very happy.

"I also ask the two adults to lead the way and take me to arrest Yuan Shao." Luo Cheng looked at the two smilingly, and opened his mouth to bring them back to reality.

"Let me tell you, generals! Yuan Shao vomited blood and died in anger this afternoon, while Yuan Xi was detained in our army's camp. Now the dragons in Yecheng have no leaders and are doing their own thing." Only then did the two of Jiao Chu come to their senses from their joy. There are still important things that have not been done.

"Is this true? Yuan Shao really vomited blood and died?" Xiang Yu and the others couldn't believe it. Su Dingfang asked Xiang Yu and the others' doubts whether the real Yuan Shao had faked his death.

"That's right! This is absolutely true! It can't be fake!" Zhang Nan said hastily, and Jiao Touch was also on the sidelines to prove that Yuan Shao was really finished.

"Okay! Enter the city immediately and wipe out the Yuan Shaojun who dared to resist in the city, kill!" Xiang Yu roared, his momentum was like a rainbow!Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan hurriedly moved out of the way, allowing Xiang Yu and others to rush into the city.

Under Xiang Yu's order, the armored army rushed towards the city of Ye like a beast with teeth and claws.

Tonight was destined to be an uneasy night. The defenders in Ye City never expected that someone would act as the enemy's internal support, and let the enemy's [-] soldiers armed to the teeth, fighting furiously, enter the city.

The Yecheng defenders who had lost their morale were caught off guard, and the people who were killed turned their backs, and even many soldiers surrendered directly. Anyway, the enemy has a policy of not killing prisoners. As long as they put down their weapons and surrender, they are completely safe. .

The flames all over the sky illuminate the dark night. The soldiers loyal to Yuan Shao in the city are just sporadic resistance. Under the powerful offensive of Li Songjun, who is like a wild beast, they will eventually be unable to make a wave, and will be wiped out in the long river of history. .

"My lord! The enemy army is coming! Please leave quickly, my lord, otherwise it will be too late!"

The scene in front of them was unfolding in the mansions of Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Xun Chen and others. Under the protection of a group of guards, they tried to escape from the city and defected to Yuan Shang in Youzhou, trying to make a comeback. What a pity!God did not favor them.
