"Someone seems to be pushing here, and the emperor told me earlier that there was a merchant who took refuge in him, and he would get the other party's food. In the information given to me by the emperor, there is no record of that merchant. This is not normal."

Jia Xu nodded: "My lord, don't worry, leave everything to me."

Chapter five hundred and first: vomiting blood

After the second day of the Battle of Xiaoshan, the Qingzhou Army finally arrived here.At this time, Yuan Shao's subordinates already had counselors planning to make Yuan Shao retreat, and Guo Tu, who was relatively timid, was among them.

Then he was almost pushed out by Yuan Shao and hacked... How could Yuan Shao allow himself to fail, and now he still has hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, so what if the soldiers from Qingzhou came over.

That trash Zhang He failed my hopes, Yuan Shao scolded his subordinates while drinking his stuffed wine.Now Yuan Shao didn't have a single capable general here, and now Yuan Shao desperately hoped that Chunyu Qiong could come back quickly, as for the others, they were a little far away from Yuan Shao's position.

After many generals were killed in consecutive battles, Yuan Shao tragically found that he didn't have many people available.Yuan Shao hesitated all night, but he didn't let Lu Bu bring someone back to help him defend the hill.

After all, if Lu Bu really came back, with no one on his side to contend with, whether the other party could annex his soldiers would be a matter of opinion, how could he serve him wholeheartedly.

At this time Yuan Shao is still very calm, but Yuan Shao still has some luck in his heart.So he didn't order his men to retreat, but continued to surround Zhiyuan's hill.

But the attack is definitely not going to be successful, and after the main force of the Qingzhou Army arrived, the two sides turned into a confrontation again.Zhiyuan also came down from that hill, and bumped heads with Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and the others.

Zhao Yun and Guan Yu also came not far from Zhiyuan's army. Although Lu Bu got stuck in the west and even had a fight with Lu Bu, in the end no one could do anything to them, and Lu Bu had no choice but to give up. up.

And Lu Bu seems to have heard about the burning of Anping Kingdom, so naturally he will not try his best to intercept it.On the contrary, after Guan Yu and Zhao Yun left, Lu Bu and Liu Bao led 20 Huns to leave Yuan Shao's camp.

"Yuan Shao is such a waste. Now that Anping Country is burned, he will definitely not be able to take down that woman. I am afraid that Jizhou will be owned by that woman sooner or later. I have a blood feud with that woman, and neither I nor she will let her go. "

"In this way, we can only choose the next one..."

Liu Bao sighed: "But in today's world, who will be next?"

Lu Bu sneered: "Yuan Shao is gone and Cao Cao is still there. I think Jizhou may not be able to keep it. Why don't we go to Sili first."

The current Sili is still under the control of Cao Cao, but it can only be counted... because Sili no longer has any civilians. When Cao Cao moved westward, he moved all the people he could find. Zhang Baiqi's yellow scarf in front The army also took a large part.

Therefore, the current Si Li only has a little patrolling and guarding army of Cao Cao, and it would be easy for Lu Bu to occupy this place.But Liu Bao felt a little strange: "Why did Marquis Wen go to Sili?"

Lu Bu sneered again: "Don't think there is only one Luoyang here in Sili, but Luoyang is the flattest area here, which is very suitable for cavalry attack."

"The eight passes in Luoyang are broken now, but it is very convenient to defend because of the dangerous terrain. If Qingzhou, that woman, wants to unify the world, she must pass here."

"I guess the woman's next step is to quickly occupy Jizhou, and then personally lead people to occupy Hangu Pass. Only by occupying Hangu Pass can she destroy Cao Cao. Her ambition is definitely not too small."

"But this is also an opportunity for me. I have a grudge against that woman. I killed one of her men back then, so even if that woman spares Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, she will never let me go."

"As long as the other party personally brings people to attack Hangu Pass, we will seize the opportunity to lock up Hulao, Revolving Gate, and Xuanyuan Pass, and trap this woman to death in Sili. Luoyang City has long been destroyed and cannot be defended at all."

"And the terrain here is flat. Can't our 20 Bingzhou cavalry kill her? As long as we kill that woman, we will have a chance to breathe. The emperor of Qingzhou is just a child, and it will be good if he doesn't collapse by then. "

"Whether we seek refuge with Cao Cao or establish ourselves as king here, who else in the world can stop us?" Lu Bu's eyes suddenly shone with golden light, like the sun.

Liu Bao trembled immediately, then he nodded and said, "Then shall we go to Sili now?"

"Hahaha, no! Let's collect and scrape some food and grass first. Yuan Shao's arrogant trash is defeated, and the food and grass of those big clans are very useful. If Yuan Shao fails, wouldn't the food and grass fall into the hands of that woman in the end? ?”

"It's better for us to snatch the food and grass in advance now. If we can't defeat the woman head-on, then use the food and grass to drag her to death. As long as we control the checkpoints near Luoyang, we will starve her to death here even if she is hungry."

Liu Bao nodded when he saw Lu Bu say that.The two left here quickly, and ransacked all the nearby villages and towns.At this time, Lu Bu did not forget Zhang Liao, his subordinate in the south. He immediately sent someone to contact Zhang Liao and ordered him to go north quickly to join him.

Two days later, Yuan Shao received the news that Anping Kingdom had fallen and Wen Chou had been killed.Immediately Yuan Shao felt that his chest was a little stuffy, and his eyes were a little dark.

Anping was lost, and all food and grass were burned.I'm afraid I won't be able to fight this decisive battle... Yuan Shao gasped for a while and then called his sons Yuan Xi and Yuan Tan in.

"Father..." The two of them suddenly felt that their father seemed to be several years older.

Yuan Shao waved his hand: "Immediately go and check how much food and grass are left in our army, and then monitor the army and prepare to retreat."

After being the lord for so many years, Yuan Shao's mind is still very clear now.Since Anping Kingdom is also lost, there is no reason for the Qingzhou Army not to know such big news.It's impossible not to retreat now, if it's really impossible, we can only retreat to Yecheng first and try to counterattack.

Yuan Shao knew how much food and grass he had here, at least half a month left.Even if there may be some corruption or frivolity, Yuan Shao estimates that there will be at least seven days' share left.

But at this moment, Yuan Shao suddenly found chaotic voices coming from outside, and Yuan Shao thought that Zhi Yuan had brought someone to call him.After Yuan Shao got out of the camp, he found that there was a huge fire burning in the grain and grass warehouse.

Yuan Xi ran back from a distance: "Father, the grain officer was killed, and the granary was set on fire. I don't know who did it."

Yuan Shao opened his mouth, and suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, and then Yuan Shao fell to the ground and fell unconscious.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

After Yuan Shao vomited blood and passed out, the entire Yuan Shao camp was in complete chaos.This chaos does not mean a direct collapse, but it is certain that the dragons will have no leader.

When the two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi discussed it, their father was in a coma, and the two of them were completely incapable of presiding over the overall situation.If it doesn't work, run away... Anyway, Yuan Shao's family property is in Yecheng, so let's go back to Yecheng first.

The Qingzhou Army will definitely not let go of this opportunity. Although these two men are not as outstanding as other generals, after all, the gentry were educated from an early age, and there are not many incidents of adultery.

So after the two men studied, they took the elite cavalry and ran overnight.To put it bluntly, the remaining soldiers are mobs. Once the Qingzhou Army takes this opportunity to cover up and kill them, the tens of thousands of people will definitely collapse.

But after the collapse, it will attack Yuan Shao's own elite soldiers, and this battle is impossible to fight.Moreover, the grain and grass in Anping country were burned, and the grain and grass on his own side were also burned. The morale of ordinary soldiers basically disappeared.

So when the two of them combined, they took [-] elite cavalry and civil servants and advisers and ran away.

After these people left Zhiyuan, they got the news. To put it bluntly, Zhiyuan has been paying attention to things here.She really didn't care whether Yuan Shao ran or not, after all, those 10,000+ soldiers couldn't escape.

Yuan Shao ran away, didn't Zhiyuan just happen to let these people accept it, Zhiyuan didn't want such a large number of casualties.In any case, these people are all Han Chinese, and it would be best if they could be recruited by themselves.

Although these people need a lot of food and grass, the plain is very close to here.Once these soldiers are sent to the plains, these 10 people will be digested in minutes.

So after learning that Yuan Shao had already fled, Zhi Yuan directly sent tens of thousands of people from the Qingzhou army, and led by Guan Yu, went to Yecheng to pursue Yuan Shao.The rest of the people directly surrounded nearly 30 soldiers here, but they didn't have any plans to attack.

Zhiyuan planned to talk to the other party, she believed that those soldiers would make a correct decision.The next day... the soldiers in Yuan Shao's camp found that all their superiors had disappeared.

This time the camp was directly bombed. Many Yuan Shao soldiers originally planned to sneak out of the camp, but they found that the outside of the camp was full of Qingzhou troops.On Yuan Shao's side, there were only a few unknown generals left, and when the soldiers found these generals, they also looked confused.

Just when this group of people was in chaos, Zhi Yuan came to the gate of Yuan Shao's camp in person.She took an amplified microphone made of iron and said to a group of people: "Yuan Shao abandoned you. They left here with five thousand cavalry last night."

"You know the specific reason in your heart. The granary on your back in Anping Kingdom was burned by my people. And the grain and grass in your barracks were also burned yesterday, although I don't know who did it."

"Don't look at me with that look. I'm not that good at infiltrating Yuan Shao. The information I got is that some of you are taking refuge in the Son of Heaven. This is just a vote of honor."

"Of course these are secondary. The main problem now is that you are surrounded and must surrender unconditionally."

After Zhi Yuan said this, the Yuan Jun was in a commotion, and a lieutenant general said boldly, "Princess, you must have too much appetite for so many of us to surrender?"

The other party's name was Princess, which meant that the other party did not dare to offend Zhi Yuan.Zhiyuan chuckled: "It's not that I have too much appetite, but that I do have this ability. If any of your generals refuses to accept it, you can lead troops to fight with us at any time."

As soon as Zhi Yuan finished speaking, that general immediately withered away.Isn't this nonsense? If you can beat a woman like you, there is no need to talk about it here.

At this time, another general said to Zhiyuan: "I heard that the Qingzhou Army captured the prisoners and forced them to mine. If we surrender, don't we have to mine?"

Zhiyuan made a helpless expression when she heard this sentence: "This general is talking about my policy in Youzhou? There is indeed such a thing."

"But there are some things you don't know. None of the captives I forced to mine were Han Chinese. All the Han captives were properly resettled, and most of them became farmers again to obtain arable land, and a few were retrained. Become a member of the Qingzhou Army."

"I can guarantee this, because Qingzhou still lacks a large number of farmers to cultivate. Food has always been the top priority, you don't need to worry about this, I can guarantee it with my reputation."

After saying this, immediately on Yuan Jun's side, noisy voices appeared again.Many people can hear Zhiyuan's words, and those who can't hear it are conveyed from the front to the back, basically everyone will know.

This is very attractive, as long as they are Han people, there is no one who doesn't care about land.Being captured by the Qingzhou Army not only will not become a slave, but will even allocate land to himself.

It didn't even matter what the generals were saying, many soldiers knelt down directly to the kite and greeted the surrender.And those few generals looked at each other, they were not too reconciled.

After all, no matter how small the general is, he is still an official. After surrendering, he not only lost his status, but also had to farm the land like ordinary farmers, which was naturally something they couldn't accept.But now this situation seems to be out of their control, ordinary soldiers were settled by the other party with a few words.

Zhiyuan naturally saw the hesitation of those lieutenant generals, so she said to them again: "I will not confiscate your personal money now. But it is only the last time, after all, after you enter Qingzhou, all the rules must follow Qingzhou Come."

"If you still want to become generals, then go to the military academy established in Qingzhou to study. As long as you pass, you can return to the position of officer. Of course, studying is definitely difficult. If you can't read, the pressure will be even greater."

After Zhi Yuan finished speaking, those vacillating generals and little bosses finally knelt down to express their allegiance to Zhi Yuan.After Zhi Yuan surrounded the enemy with his own soldiers, he dealt with hundreds of thousands of Yuan Jun without bloodshed.

After these soldiers had completely accepted the recruitment and put down all their weapons, Zhiyuan also heaved a sigh of relief.Then Zhi Yuan ordered Tai Shici to escort these soldiers back to the plains, and Zhao Yun led 10 people to cooperate with Guan Yu to liberate Jizhou as quickly as possible.

Then Zhiyuan arranged for more than [-] people to go south to control Yanzhou, and to join Yuan Shu in Yuzhou if possible.And Zhi Yuan herself, after replenishing some elite soldiers, headed west all the way, preparing to control Sili.

Zhiyuan's intention is very clear, she will never let Yuan Shao escape from Jizhou.If Yuan Shao ran from Jizhou to Bingzhou or Liangzhou, wouldn't it be troublesome to cooperate with Cao Cao?

The main purpose of Zhiyuan's going to Sili is to seal Yuan Shao to death in Jizhou and completely eliminate Yuan Shao's influence.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Yuan Shao woke up, but didn't say a word.However, within a few days, Yuan Shao, who was about 40 years old, had completely gray hair.

Although the two sons quickly took Yuan Shao to Yecheng, Yuan Shao knew in his heart that they were completely finished.

Yuan Shao didn't speak, but he kept thinking about what to do.After losing the decisive battle, Jizhou no longer has the ability to resist the woman's attack, and now Yuan Shao may only be defeated.

The only good news is that Chun Yuqiong has led his troops back, and even stopped Guan Yu in front of him day and night.

Chun Yuqiong was quite capable in leading the troops, and he had more than [-] soldiers under him anyway, and he did not suffer too much from fighting Guan Yu a few times, and then he also retreated to Yecheng to defend here.

Yuan Shao hasn't figured it out yet, and he seems a little dull in the eyes of others.Chunyuqiong was a little angry, and almost killed Guo Tu and the others.A group of useless people didn't know how to think for the lord, and they were repeatedly given the upper hand by Qingzhou.

"My lord... please go north quickly, my lord has some kindness with the Xianbei people, so go north and borrow troops from Xianbei and kill them back." Chun Yuqiong advised Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao's eyes seemed to cool down for a while, but then slowly dimmed.But this time he did speak: "Brother Chunyu...you and I have known each other for twenty years..."

Chunyu Qiong nodded: "We served as officials together back then, and later we were officials in the same palace... We even became the eighth captain of Xiyuan."

Yuan Shao sighed: "It's a pity... Now that I occasionally think about it, it's more interesting then."

Chunyu Qiong nodded again: "My lord... Please cheer up, we still have a chance to defeat that tiger girl. We should have killed her in Luoyang if we had known that this woman was so powerful."

Yuan Shao laughed suddenly: "Haha...it's too late to say anything now. But at this point, brother, can you accompany me through this final journey?"

Chunyuqiong glanced at Yuan Shao and found that he was extremely serious, so Chunyuqiong clasped his fists together: "My lord, I dare not refuse!"

"Okay...Yuan Xi, Yuan Tan...the two of you led one hundred thousand soldiers from Yecheng to go north to Youzhou to borrow 20 troops from the Xianbei people."

"Chun Yuqiong, you and I led the [-] main force to go south to Yanzhou. After Cao Mengde left Yanzhou, I sent my third son Yuan Shang and Chen Lin Wangxiu to govern. It has been three years now."

"Yanzhou should be able to prepare no less than 20 soldiers. If we can move quickly, we can attack the Qingzhou Army from the north to the south. After all, Jizhou is my hometown. As long as the situation is reversed as quickly as possible, those gentry are still Support me."

When Yuan Shao said this, the two sons looked at each other and nodded in unison.Although the relationship between them is not very good, but now the Qingzhou army puts too much pressure on them, so the two of them have no objection to Yuan Shao's arrangement.

Soon they went down to prepare, only Chunyu Qiong did not move.Sure enough, after everyone went down, Yuan Shao said to Chunyu Qiong: "You let your children fight with them too."

Chunyu Qiong nodded, he knew in his heart that Yuan Shao was just buying time for his two sons.

Go south to Yanzhou? ?Yanzhou has been besieged by Qingzhou forces for three years, and now going south to Yanzhou, don't you think it's not fast enough?What Yuan Shao did was nothing more than mobilizing the main force of the Qingzhou Army to the south to give his two sons a way out.

Yuan Shao had already received the news that the three counties of Anping, Qinghe, and Hejian were gone within two days of Yuan Shao's return.All the gentry were directly tried and convicted, and the Qingzhou Army did not intend to keep the current gentry and kill them all if they did not surrender.

If it wasn't for Chun Yuqiong and his men running back desperately to block Guan Yu's men, Guan Yu might have already reached Yecheng by now.And the daughter of the Tang family is collecting the prisoners, and I am afraid that they will be able to come to Yecheng within half a month.

Yuan Shao had a deep understanding of what is meant by the end of the world. The army of nearly one million was completely collapsed in just half a month.Even now Yuan Shao doesn't know how the woman burned her food.

But Yuan Shao didn't need to think about this matter anymore, and soon Yuan Shao led the last 10 elite to go south the next day.And Zhi Yuan has led nearly [-] people from Anping Kingdom to join Guan Yu's army.

"The other party plans to run south?" Zhi Yuan didn't understand the other party's intention.

Guan Yu's scouting horse said to Zhi Yuan: "General, the enemy is splitting up two groups in Yecheng. One goes north to Youzhou and the other goes south to Yanzhou. Yuan Shao, the leader of the rebel army, led more than 5 people to go south."

Zhi Yuan thought about it for a while and Yuan Shao didn't mean to be too aggressive, after all, in Zhi Yuan's view, no matter whether they went north or south, they would destroy each other.

Zhang Baiqi in Youzhou has already sent the battle report. It is not certain who the soldiers Yuan Shao went north belonged to in Youzhou after they arrived in Youzhou.And the ones going south... aren't they just here to die?

Zhi Yuan and Guan Yu led people to chase to the edge of the Yellow River. Yuan Shao led 2 people just across the Yellow River, and [-] to [-] people are still on the north side of the Yellow River.

Suddenly, 1 people assembled, led by a general, to the front of the kite.Zhi Yuan was slightly taken aback and found that it was actually an old acquaintance Chunyu Qiong, she rode to the front of Chunyu Qiong and cupped her hands.

"So it's General Chunyu, long time no see..."

Speaking of Yuan Shao's subordinates, Zhi Yuan and this Chunyu Qiong are actually the one with the most friendship.It's just that when the two met before, it wasn't as embarrassing as this time.

"Is the princess here to lead people to kill them all?" Chun Yuqiong sneered at Zhi Yuan.

Zhiyuan sighed: "Unify the world, so that the people will not be affected by the flames of war in the future... You have already lost, I can guarantee that I will not kill any member of the Yuan family, and please don't cause more casualties."

When Chunyuqiong heard Zhiyuan say this, there was a glimmer of hope in his heart.But soon he shook his head: "Princess...whether it's me or the lord, everyone has dignity..."

"Since the princess army has arrived, please let me fight in a dignified manner!"

Zhiyuan didn't say anything more, and directly ordered people to attack.Chunyuqiong's army collapsed after holding on for less than a quarter of an hour, and Yuan Jun's soldiers had long lost their morale, even if they were led by a famous general.

And Chunyu Qiong also fought hard and died in the rebellion. Zhi Yuan said to Guan Yu: "Go south...bring Yuan Shao back, life or death..."

Guan Yu nodded, this kind of credit is also great.And earlier, Zhou Cang actually mixed in with Yuan Shao's soldiers, which was easy to catch.

But Yuan Shao was on the other side of the river, watching the one-sided massacre, he couldn't help closing his eyes.Chunyuqiong finally chose to go with him, although it was just a step ahead.
