At this time, Cao Cao was also stunned. Fortunately, he didn't rush in at all. "What happened? Is that woman going to die with us?!" Cao Cao shouted in shock.

At this time, no matter whether it was Cao Ren or the reckless Cao Chun, they were basically trapped in the fire.Although it is said that as long as they can escape to the edge of the camp, they will be saved, but Zhiyuan intentionally placed a lot of fallen leaves around the camp.

Once ignited, the entire area is combustible.Although Zhiyuan's subordinates had some special preparations, it was very difficult to escape.Not to mention Cao Cao's men, the flames and poisonous smoke made Cao Jun fall in a few minutes.

And at this time, Wei Yan, Zhi Yuan's subordinate, led thousands of people to kill from the side of the camp where there was not much fire.The noses and mouths of these people were all tied with wet cloth, and some water was splashed all over their bodies.

Cao Ren's side has already collapsed, and nearly ten thousand people are surrounded by flames.Cao Ren led hundreds of people to escape from the sea of ​​flames, just in time to meet Wei Yan's team.Cao Ren's side was almost burnt out, and he was attacked by Wei Yan in one round, and Cao Ren was captured alive by Wei Yan.

Although Cao Cao sent people to rescue, it was too late.In the end, all I saw was a group of war horses that were almost burnt out, and Cao Chun, whose life and death were unknown, ran out.

Almost ten thousand people were burned to death or poisoned by poisonous smoke, but Cao Cao had no way to rescue them.And at this time, in the only passage without fire, Zhi Yuan led the army to press Cao Ren to the front of the formation.

The kite held a scorched human arm in its hand, and it clucked loudly in its mouth.She said to Cao Cao with a cold expression: "Thank you brother Mengde, otherwise we would not have known such delicious food."

Cao Cao immediately understood what they were eating these days, but when he saw Zhiyuan eating an arm expressionlessly, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a little sick to his stomach.

Chapter 390 Six: Yuan Shu's Determination

"Why are you doing this?" Cao Cao clicked his lips, not knowing what to say.

There is no hatred between the two, it is nothing more than their own interests.And to be honest, Cao Cao really admired Zhiyuan.

Zhiyuan dropped the arm, then looked at Cao Cao. "For the ideal, don't suffer..."

"In this situation, how about we draw the land as a boundary? Of course, if you don't accept it, we can continue. I hope you can bring back all the corpses under your hands, otherwise we will point to them and live."

Zhiyuan's words are still very lethal. No one wants their body to be eaten by others. The other party has already beaten up like this, and they are still fighting to the death with their own side.

Cao Cao sighed: "You won... Then use your camp as the boundary, and both sides will stop fighting..."

Zhi Yuan nodded, this time she forced Cao Cao to retreat. After all, using dead human flesh as dry food was much scarier than Cao Cao secretly using human flesh as jerky.

Zhiyuan looked at Cao Cao, and then sighed: "Meng De, I hope that one day, you can really become that big man's General Zhengxi."

Cao Cao was silent, but soon Cao Cao revealed a message. "Miss Zhiyuan, I got a quick news yesterday that Yuan Gonglu was defeated a few days ago..."

Zhiyuan was slightly taken aback: "How did you defeat it?"

Going back to a few days ago, the news that Jingzhou was about to end also reached Yuan Shao's ears.Yuan Shao was also very anxious. After all, once the Qingzhou army was free, they might not even be able to take half of Yuzhou.

There is not enough food now, if Qiao cannot be captured, when the reinforcements from Qingzhou arrive, none of them will be able to please.So Yuan Shao also planned to fight hard, if he didn't beat Qiao down, all the hard work in the past few months would be in vain.

Especially after more than half a month of digging, two tunnels were finally dug into the interior of Qiaocheng.Yuan Shao intends to personally lead people to attack the city tonight, it is time to defeat his brother and let him withdraw from the ranks of the world hegemony.

Yuan Shao was wearing heavy armor, looking at the deep Qiaocheng. "Today, anyone who retreats will be killed without mercy. The first team to break into the city wall will be rewarded with five hundred catties of gold and one thousand catties of silver!"

This reward was a lot of sincerity, and Yuan Shao was truly generous.You must know that according to history, this reward is almost the same as Liu Bei rewarded his subordinates when he entered Shu.

As soon as these words were said, Yuan Shao's subordinates all let out an exclamation.Even Lu Bu next to him couldn't help but twitched, he was so fucking rich.But Lu Bu also wanted this reward, so he laughed out loud and walked out.

"Jizhou Mu, as long as there is chaos in the city, it will belong to our emperor's army to attack the city wall. The money is ready, and I will come and get it in person tomorrow." Lu Bu didn't care about the murderous eyes of Yuan Shao's men, and led them away directly. here.

"The emperor's army? Pfft..." As soon as Lu Bu left, Xu You burst out laughing.

But soon the corners of Xu You's mouth twitched a few times, because he also had a stab wound on his chest, which almost killed him. "Since Lu Bupifu is like this, how about letting him take the lead?"

"If Qiaocheng can be captured, Lu Bu's subordinates will naturally suffer a lot of losses. It is better for the Lord to kill him at that time. The servant of the three surnames in the province will always do betrayal."

After Xu You finished speaking, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others also said to Yuan Shao, "Princess, Ziyuan is right. We have long been unhappy with Lu Bu. Not to mention that Lu Bu robbed our villages and towns and competed with us for Bingzhou."

"Here in Yuzhou, do you see how Lu Bu has destroyed this place? None of the Yuzhou gentry who took refuge in us complained like us, and even this Lu Bu actually took away their concubines and gave them to his subordinates to play with. What's the use of keeping him like this?"

A group of people were very upset with Lu Bu, so Yuan Shao naturally nodded. "Okay, then wait until Qiao City is captured, and then kill that slave."

Speaking of this, Xu You suddenly turned his head and thought of something, and he said to Yuan Shao: "My lord, since the tiger girl is also in Jingzhou, I am afraid that the tiger girl should also go north now."

"It's better to wait for a while after the battle of Qiaocheng, using the reason that so much money can't be transported immediately, and let Lu Bu go to attack the tiger girl going north during this time."

"If we win at that time, we will kill Tiger Girl and Lu Bu together. If Lu Bu loses...then naturally we can do whatever we want, can't we?"

As soon as Xu You finished speaking, laughter came from the entire camp.Yuan Shao nodded happily: "Ziyuan, you are right, I will give you a hundred catties of gold when it is done!"

"Haha, thank you, my lord!" Xu You's happy face was about to blossom.His haughty expression made Yuan Shao's remaining counselors feel a little unhappy.

But this is not the main thing, the most important thing now is to take down the city.

Since Qiao attacked Yuan Shao last time and suffered a big loss later, he obviously felt that his morale was not high when facing the siege every day.Yuan Shu also regarded friendship as important, and basically stayed by Ji Ling's side for several days until Ji Ling's life was not in danger.

But even after more than half a month, Ji Ling could only barely go to the ground.It is impossible to fight with a weapon. It can only be said that half of your life is taken away, and there is no guarantee of how much combat power you can recover in the future.

At present, there are still about 3 soldiers here. Lejiu and Liang Gang lead some young generals to take charge of the defense here.Among the 5000 people, there are still about [-] elites left, and there are more than [-] Yuan Shu's personal soldiers, that is, those elites who followed Zhiyuan.

Not only did the surprise attack on Yuan Shao lose two generals, but these elites also suffered heavy losses.Even Yuan Shu suddenly felt a little disheartened. After spending time with Ji Ling, Yuan Shu spent a lot of time drinking away his worries.

After all, the sneak attack method I came up with failed in the end and so many people died. These people were also Yuan Shu's own friends, so Yuan Shu obviously blamed himself.

Fortunately, Yuan Shu's other subordinates are quite dedicated, so the stalemate with the outside of the city is still continuing.But just two days before Yuan Shao was about to attack the city, Yuan Shu found Lejiu Liang Gang.

These people have been with him since more than ten years ago. The three of them drank together, and Yuan Shu couldn't help crying. "You say, is the fate really on me?"

Le directly took a bowl of wine and drank it clean, and then said to Yuan Shu: "My lord says I'm here, so I'm here! The final general will definitely accompany my lord to complete the great cause!"

Yuan Shu sighed, and then said to the two people: "To be honest, it's been so many years, and I really value Tian's Mandate very much. After all, there is no one who doesn't like that position."

"But during the half a year or so in Qiaocheng, I was even more upset with my brother. Although now it seems that I may really not be the opponent of the other party. But I am not reconciled!"

"I'm really not reconciled!"

Chapter 390 Seven: Loyalty

After Yuan Shu drank too much, it was considered true feelings, so that his subordinates also looked like they could die for Yuan Shu at any time, and generally speaking, they were all united.

After drinking almost, Yuan Shu said to Le: "Starting tomorrow, in all places in Qiaocheng, I will arrange all the fire oil I have accumulated over the years."

Although Lejiu drank too much, he was still slightly taken aback: "What are you going to do, my lord?"

Yuan Shu drank another bowl of wine: "Don't do anything, I have a hunch that the city might not be able to hold on, but I don't want Yuan Shao to feel better, understand?"

Liang Gang on the side nodded: "The lord is right. Although Yuan Shao is the brother of the lord, he has never put the lord in his eyes. The so-called master humiliates the minister and dies. If the city is destroyed, he will voluntarily stay with him. Fight to the death!"

Yuan Shu laughed, and then nodded: "Let's stay together, I am the queen of the fourth generation and the third father, I want to face!"

"Okay, then let's give Yuan Shao a good look!" Le Zuo laughed, and then gave Liang Gang a meaningful look.

After Yuan Shu drank too much and went back, let Liang Gang stay.Yuan Shu was in a bad mood so he drank a lot, and although the two generals also drank a lot, they didn't drink too much.

Liang Gang said to Le: "It seems that the death of the brothers has dealt a great blow to the lord."

Le nodded: "Isn't this nonsense, how many years have we been born and died? The lord and that brother are holding their breath. If we really lose this time, it will be a big blow to the lord."

"When the time comes, take the lord and leave, leave this place to me!"

Liang Gang laughed: "Brother, are you joking? Could it be that the three of you are dead and let me live alone?"

Le sighed: "Then you plan to let the lord die here too? You see, our subordinates have no morale at all. Although I don't know when the city will be captured, there are still many lords." There may not be no chance of a comeback."

Liang Gang shook his head: "Then I should stay. You must know that among these four people, I am the oldest. How can there be any reason why my brother is still alive when all the brothers are dead?"

Le laughed loudly, and then hugged Liang Gang: "It's because you are the eldest brother, and your kung fu is the best. You see what the lord said, it will definitely be set on fire at that time. I can't guarantee that the level of chaos can bring Follow the lord to kill him."

"It's easy to die in battle...but it's not easy to let the lord escape."

Liang Gang no longer postponed, but instead he said seriously: "If you wait until you escape, don't die in battle. After I protect the lord, come and reunite with my brothers!"

"Starting tomorrow, the army will be reorganized in batches. Take out all the elites and some who can fight. There are at least [-] soldiers outside the city. If you don't use the main force to escape, it may be difficult to leave here with the Lord. "

"And it's best for Ji Ling to be rescued. If we're all gone, who else can be by my lord's side in the future?" Having said that, Liang Gang sighed again.

Le also had a sad expression, but then he said to Liang Gang: "Since the lord decides to set the fire, someone must stay behind. If I am still alive after setting the fire, then I am following the lord."

"Brother is right, so if I really don't get out alive, please don't abandon the lord easily and come to see us. Otherwise, even if you arrive in the underworld, we will teach you a lesson, regardless of whether you are our eldest brother."

"Haha, let's drink!" Liang Gang picked up a jug of wine, and the two of them drank it down in one gulp.

On the night of Yuan Shao's night attack, everything was almost the same as before.To be honest, since Yuan Shao was attacked by them last time, he attacked the city regardless of day or night.

But today when Le was patrolling at night, he found that there were a lot more fires on Yuan Shao's side at night.So Le immediately called Liang Gang over and explained the situation to him.

Liang Gang nodded, and immediately ordered his men to prepare for the night battle.All his subordinates shouted, because he had vaguely judged that the opponent's siege today might be very fierce.

Yuan Shu had already fallen asleep, but was awakened by the sound of mobilizing troops outside.So Yuan Shu ordered people to inquire, and the news he got was that the enemy camp had seen more torches, and they might come out in full force today.

Yuan Shu nodded, then went back to tidy up and put on his saber. "After fighting for so long, the winner should be determined." Yuan Shu laughed, and then led people directly to the city wall.

Le saw that Yuan Shu had also come, and his expression was not so good.After all, Yuan Shu is the lord, and these people desperately don't want Yuan Shu to die here. "My lord..." Le hesitated for a moment, but didn't say anything else.

Yuan Shu looked at the place not far below the city wall, because Yuan Shao had turned on torches all over the place, so he could basically see it very clearly.The leading position is actually Lu Bu, and there are about 5000 people lining up to prepare.

"Hmph, bastard!" Yuan Shu spat under the city wall.

Then Yuan Shu said to his subordinates, that is, the soldiers on the city wall: "I am here to accompany you today, and I must teach my brother an unforgettable lesson!"

After fighting for so many years, Yuan Shu naturally did not give in vain.He thought about it carefully and then said to one of his subordinates: "Take someone to the granary. If the city wall collapses here, set fire to the grain."

"My lord?" Le hesitated.

Yuan Shu smiled lightly: "Yuzhou is my territory, and if the food is burned, it will be burned. If I can really turn the situation around, then the gentry will naturally support me again."

"If I fail, I won't leave any food for my brother. Let's see how he finally explained to the nobles. Getting a completely empty Qiao will only consume more energy for him."

Le sighed, and then cupped his fists at Yuan Shu: "A certain one must fight to the death!"

As soon as this sentence was finished, chaos broke out in the city.Several places in the city were already on fire. Although Yuan Shu had arranged kerosene and the like, it would definitely not allow them to be easily ignited.

But now some places are on fire, coupled with the faint sound of fighting, Yuan Shu couldn't help but frown.

About a quarter of an hour later, a soldier ran over and said to Yuan Shu, "Lord Zhou Mu, the enemy has entered Qiaocheng through tunnels. Liang Gang is leading the soldiers to fight the enemy, but the opponent seems to have dug more than one tunnel, so come in." The number of soldiers in the army may have exceeded [-]."

"General Liang hopes that the state herdsman will be transferred to the vicinity of the west gate, and the rest can be left to them."

Yuan Shu nodded, and then looked at Yuan Shao's army that had already begun to attack the city under the city wall.He took out his sword: "Defend the city wall, follow me to kill the enemy!"

After saying this, Yuan Shu pulled himself together and threw a stone from the city wall by himself.

Chapter 390: Lu Bufang's Small Calculation

Lu Bu is the vanguard. To be honest, Lu Bu doesn't think highly of any of these princes.

If Lu Bu is really worthy of respect, maybe his father Dong Zhuo was one of them.It's a pity that Dong Zhuo really didn't have any enterprising spirit when he was in Chang'an, so it's no wonder I killed him in the end.

But apart from Dong Zhuo, the princes of the world?It's all trash!This group of selfish princes actually had the nerve to talk about themselves, and they attacked and killed each other, in Lu Bu's view, it was almost as boring as playing a house.

However, since he can kill several princes and get a lot of money, Lu Bu is still willing to give something for money.So Lu Bu led people to personally attack the city, and Lu Bu actually saw Yuan Shu personally at the top of the city.

"Ha, Yuan Shu really suits my taste better than Yuan Shao." Lu Bu said to Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao looked at Lu Bu, and then asked: "Then if we attack the top of the city, should we spare his life?"

Lu Bu thought for a while and then nodded, "I think it's good for us to let the brothers continue to fight. It's best not only to save his life, but also to let him go."

"Runan County is the foundation of Yuan Shu. Even if this city is lost, with Yuan Shu's current ability, it is not impossible to return to Runan and make a comeback."

"And if we do this, after we return to the north, we can take advantage of Yuan Shao's main force in the south, quickly take over Bingzhou and control it."

Lu Bu was stunned when he said that about Zhang Liao. After all, he never thought that Lu Bu would think so much.In fact, what Zhang Liao didn't know was that before the opening tonight, Chen Gong personally approached Lu Bu to declare his interests.

But since Lu Bu said so, his subordinates naturally obeyed.A group of people began to hold the ladder and let the cannon fodder be consumed first. After all, the people who used up the siege arrows and physical strength in front must still need a lot.

A group of people, old and young, flocked here, and the people on the city wall had long been used to it.These people are all from nearby villages, and there is not much to do with them, only to kill them all.

After all, not everyone has the spirit of a kite and can save all the civilians as much as possible.

When the civilians are almost exhausted, Yuan Shu's subordinates.When his physical strength was exhausted, Lu Bu led his men to attack.This time the siege was extremely difficult, because Lu Bu led his men to the city wall very smoothly.

This was also the reason why Yuan Shu's morale was somewhat low. After all, not all soldiers could be inspired by Yuan Shu's words.By the time Yuan Shu rushed over with his personal guards, Lu Bu had already controlled a large area with his people.

Yuan Shu led his elite personal guards to fight with Lu Bu. Now Yuan Shu's personal guards are more powerful than Lu Bu's men.But Lu Bu didn't care about this at all, but said directly to Yuan Shu.

"For this sneak attack, Yuan Shao prepared [-] dead soldiers in the tunnels inside the city. If your soldiers are as elite as those around you, that's fine. Otherwise, I advise you to escape as soon as possible."

Yuan Shu was taken aback for a moment. Although he did hear the shouts of killing from other parts of the city getting louder and louder, to be honest he didn't care that much.But after hearing Lu Bu say that, Yuan Shu laughed.

"Why should I retreat? Your army and subordinates are only more than ten thousand. I don't believe that you can let them all die here." Yuan Shu is also quite wise.

If he could force Lv Bu back here and deal with the dead soldiers in the city later, it wouldn't be impossible for him to resist his brother's attack this time.
