Maybe this sentence is a cliché, but many people tend to ignore these most basic things.
Yuan Shao was not ignorant of the importance of Qu Yi, but after several trials and repeated opportunities, Qu Yi still showed a defensive and incomprehensible attitude, which ultimately disappointed Yuan Shao.
Of course, on the other hand, if Yuan Shao is in Qu Yi's position, he may not be able to relax, but isn't the most favorite thing among human beings, double standards?
A banquet had already been set up in the Gaoyang Mansion. All the ordinary generals were in the courtyard. As for some higher-ranking generals, they entered the hall and toasted and drank with Yuan Shao's men in the lobby.
Since Yuan Shao was already murderous, he didn't say anything else. Instead, he smiled. He neither talked about military affairs nor political affairs. He just talked about some interesting things that had happened recently, and the hall was immediately filled with laughter.
The atmosphere inside was extremely harmonious, with laughter and laughter.
Qu Yi also spoke and smiled as usual, and was flattering. Sometimes he recounted a few sentences about the Youbei war under Yuan Shao's leadership, which seemed to touch an itch in Yuan Shao's heart, making Yuan Shao laugh uncontrollably.
The lobby is quite elegant. Most of the men in the corridors and courtyards are fighting. They eat large pieces of meat and drink wine from large bowls. Naturally, they are very casual. The sound of drinking pheasants and hulu gradually becomes louder. I don’t know who is losing more.
As he was being forced to drink, laughter and whistles suddenly aroused.
Qu Yi drank with Yuan Shao in the lobby, but he talked more and drank less. He raised a glass and put down half a glass. He added wine frequently, but he was very measured and did not drink much at all. On the contrary, Yuan Shao drank a lot.
He looked like he was letting go of his arms. He had fucked him several times in a row, and he didn't seem to care about Qu Yi's state of raising goldfish.
The noise outside suddenly rose to a higher level, and the sound of laughter was almost as if the roof tiles were overturned!
Yuan Shao laughed, with a hint of drunkenness between his brows and eyes, and said: "These bastards are really alive and kicking! General Qu did a good job! Youbei has been generally calmed down, but the world is not yet settled! Erlang still has to be like this.
What a high-spirited momentum!”
Qu Yi laughed and said, "The general's teachings are not good!"
Yuan Shao raised his wine cup and laughed loudly. He raised his glass and said: "Come on, drink! What is taught is not taught. If it comes to practice, you still have to... uh..."
Yuan Shao seemed to be a little drunk. His hand that raised the wine baron was unsteady and shook. As a result, more than half of the glass of wine was poured on his clothes. Yuan Shao didn't care. He laughed and poured the remaining wine in the wine baron.
After finishing the drink, he stood up, shook his clothes and said, "Here, help me change my clothes!"
Qu Yi also stood up quickly, but was held down by Yuan Shao. Then he turned around and scolded the men who were accompanying him while drinking, "You can drink a few more drinks with me here! I'll come when I go to change my clothes! By the way... you bastards"
, I didn’t even propose a few toasts when I met General Qu! So that General Qu could teach him some secrets! They are really ignorant guys..."
Qu Yi repeatedly gave in, but could not withstand the guards of the military academy who came up to propose a toast to Yuan Shao in turn. He was surrounded and booed, so he could only raise the wine cup and start drinking.
Yuan Shao put his hand on the attendant's shoulder and staggered into the backyard. After turning around the hall, he retracted his hand, stood still, and was silent for a moment. Finally, he shook his head and said lightly: "Just do it!"
The guards behind him accepted the order and turned around.
In the lobby, a Yuan Shao military officer saw the eyes of the returning guard, nodded, stood up, held the waist knife, and headed towards Quyi with the wine prince in hand.
The people present here are all military lieutenant generals. They usually carry swords and swords. Although most people at the banquet put their swords on the side of the table, but when they saw this man holding the sword and moving forward,
Maybe it felt a little weird, but no one was alert.
"General Qu! Let me give you a drink!" Qu Yi was surrounded by two or three people. This person stepped forward, raised the wine baron, and shouted loudly.
"Ah haha... I really can't drink anymore. Why don't you guys take a break first and drink later? Let me take a few bites of food and drink some wine first..." Qu Yi was surrounded for two or three rounds and was feeling a little dizzy.
My brain was swollen, and when I heard that I was coming to propose a toast again, I immediately thanked him.
"Haha... I never thought that General Qu would not eat even the toast..." The principal of the guard army laughed, "Then just eat the fine wine!" In the midst of laughter, he threw the wine cup into Qu Yitou's face, and he immediately choked.
With a cry, he pulled out the straight knife from his waist!
Qu Yi suddenly jumped up and was about to dodge, but the other two people on the side held his arms one on the left and one on the right. He was suddenly shocked, "No..." Before he could say the good word, people around him were on the left and right.
, the short knife had already been pierced through the two pieces of armor on the front and back of his ribs! The good word he couldn't say turned into a mouthful of dirty blood, which spurted out and landed on the table!
The officer guarding Yuan Shao didn't even look at Qu Yi, who had his eyes wide open. The waist knife drew an arc in the air and passed by Qu Yi's neck. A head that was staring at him suddenly rose into the sky and fell with blood.
It fell, smashed on the table, and suddenly it was a mess. The castration did not stop, and it fell on the reed mat in the middle of the hall. It spun around several times before stopping. In a pair of eyes stained with blood and vegetable juice,
The initial panic is still frozen!
"Do it!"
Under the shouts, these Yuan Shao guards who had long been armed with short blades suddenly rose up, either using short blades, or simply pulling out the weapons they had been wearing, just slashing left and right in the crowd!
Streams of blood spurted out, dyeing everything around them red. Screams suddenly sounded from time to time. All tables and desks were overturned. Bean dishes and jue bowls rolled around. A pair of feet stamped around.
The ground was a mess of wine and meat, mixed with bright red blood, and the banquet place that was a lively place just now suddenly turned into an extremely tragic Shura field!
The personal guards brought by Qu Yi were so nervous that they almost used knives and guns when they were outside the city. When they saw that nothing happened, their nerves naturally relaxed. In addition, the people who entered the courtyard originally also
Not many, and Yuan Shao's men were flattering. When the incident suddenly happened, not only did many of them throw their weapons aside, they even took off their armor under the influence of wine and just ate and drank. As a result, Yuan Shao
When the soldiers burst into action and started to kill, they were immediately in bad luck.
Yuan Shao's soldiers, who had been well prepared and were all elite soldiers, were like tigers rushing into a flock of sheep, killing Qu Yi's men without the ability to resist! Everyone was screaming, and some were just rolling around on the ground,
He was dazed and tried to get out, but was trampled on by countless pairs of feet. Countless screams finally converged into one: "The general is dead! He has been trapped in a trap! The general is dead! We have been trapped in a trap!"
The Yuan Shao officer who was the first to strike was already covered in flesh and blood. In such a short period of time, he didn’t know how many Qu Yi soldiers he had cut down. While he was killing, he shouted loudly: "Big
The general has an order! Kill all these traitors!"
"We are not traitors!" Qi Zhou did not follow Qu Yi to sit in the hall, but sat down with other soldiers. Originally, he was just thinking about it just in case, but he really encountered a sudden change. Among the people in the hall were Qu Yi.
Yi and others all received special care, and their blood flowed like rivers of blood for a while, while those in the lower courtyard were slightly less aggressive, giving Qi Zhou some chance to breathe.
"Kill out! Let's all fight out together!" When Qi Zhou saw rows of soldiers holding long weapons pouring out of the back hall, he knew that even if he risked his life to kill in the back hall, he might not be able to avenge Qu Yi.
, so we can only settle for the next best thing and save our own lives first!
As if in just a short moment, the courtyard corridor that was bustling with laughter just now turned into a dead place full of corpses, blood, and mutilated limbs! The floor was full of flesh and blood mixed with dishes.
Just now they were holding hands on their shoulders, calling each other brothers and sisters, but now they are fierce and fierce, fighting in one place, as if they are murderous ghosts.
Everything is like a joke.
Qu Yi brought his people back to Jizhou with a lot of enthusiasm, but ended up having a hot face but a cold butt in front of Han Fu, and was laughed at.
When Yuan Shao came, Ju Yi decided to fight to the death against Gongsun Zan despite all opinions. Although Baima Yicong was defeated, more than half of Qu Yi's subordinates were also killed. Even Qu Yi himself was seriously injured and almost died in the battle. Now
But he became a traitor in the mouth of Yuan Shao's personal guards. How is this not a joke?
Qi Zhou ignored the spears thrust by Yuan Shao's soldiers who were blocking the courtyard gate, and cut down Yuan Shao's soldiers at the cost of one arm being stabbed. He finally rushed out of the courtyard, but immediately ran into a torrent of Qu Yi's rebel soldiers.
middle.
After all, there were still only a few people who could enter the courtyard of the government office. Most of Qu Yi's soldiers were along the streets of the government office. Then there were soldiers from Yuan Shao who brought wine, stewed meat, and sat on the ground, eating and drinking. Unexpectedly, something happened suddenly.
, not only were they unable to grab the war horses on the street, but Yuan Shao's spearmen were even photographed forming a queue and pressing towards the center, causing chaos.
Seeing that the situation was not good, some of Qu Yi's soldiers didn't care where they were. They broke down the doors, climbed through the windows, and some even began to climb the walls and flee in all directions.
Regardless of the blood dripping on his arms and the slightest hesitation when he saw the situation, Qi Zhou took the lead and led Qu Yi's soldiers to fight straight forward. As he moved forward, he shouted and gathered the soldiers. Qu Yi's soldiers also knew what was happening.
It was dangerous, and when they saw someone taking the lead, they all gathered around Qi Zhou, and followed Qi Zhou, who was covered in blood, to charge forward, trying to cut a bloody path and escape from Gaoyang City before Yuan Shao's soldiers gathered together!
Qi Zhou gritted his teeth and rushed to the front, facing Yuan Shao's soldiers who came to block him. His movements were huge, but precise and powerful. The sword on his injured arm was only used to protect himself, either to hit or block, while the sword in the other hand was
He was the main attack, slashing and stabbing, extremely ferocious. In a short time, I don’t know how many people were killed by him!
Qu Yi's soldiers also followed behind Qi Zhou and attacked fiercely along the gap. At this moment, everyone knew that there was no way they could escape without risking their lives, so they fought regardless of the situation.
Kill【 .】, sometimes even risk your life and fight forward! They all know that this moment is the key to their survival!
Their team was swimming upstream in a bloody light, and everywhere they passed was covered with blood and flesh. The killing caused Yuan Shao's soldiers to lose their formation, and they were squeezed so hard that they stumbled around and scattered, and their blocking strength became worse and worse.
, in the end he just shouted and ran away in all directions!
Qi Zhou's face was covered with blood and minced meat, and his arms could not help but begin to tremble. The original sword was so sharp that it had to be replaced with another one on the way. When Yuan Shao's soldiers were killed and retreated, some
The red-eyed Qu Yi soldiers wanted to pursue him, so they stopped him and shouted loudly: "Quick, rush to the north gate! As long as we rush out of the city gate, we can survive!"
But at the north gate of Gaoyang, under the city gate, there was a black-armored warrior sitting on a horse, with a spear behind him, standing still. When he saw the blood in the government office in the city, he remained motionless.
Suddenly, more than ten personal guards lined up behind him, silently raising their swords and waiting for orders.
Seeing Qi Zhou and others breaking through the defense line, the black-armored general gently knocked the war horse's belly. The war horse started to jog lightly on the stone road, and then gradually accelerated. More than ten personal guards also followed suit.
, formed a front arrow array, and rushed toward Qi Zhou and others!
"Zhang He!" Qi Zhou recognized the black-armored warrior and his heart suddenly shrank.
"Here comes the bow!" Zhang He leveled the spear with an expressionless expression, then took the long bow handed over by the guard on the side, then mounted the arrow, and without stopping at all, he fired the bow while the horse's speed increased!
Qi Zhou's eyes were red, and he was turning around to yell something at the remaining Qu Yi soldiers when he heard the shrill sound of arrows piercing the air. He wanted to dodge, but he had no choice but to use up a lot of energy, so he could only stagger a little.
He hit some vital points and saw the arrow shoot out like lightning, directly knocking off two iron pieces and penetrating into Qi Zhou's shoulder as the silk ribbon flew away!
Qi Zhou's tall figure couldn't help but swayed. He could no longer hold the sword and fell to the ground. He turned his head in shock to look at the direction of the arrow, only to see his equally tall black-armored warrior put it down indifferently.
He picked up a long bow, picked up a spear, and rushed down the long street quickly!
"I'm not a traitor!" Qi Zhou's eyes burst, and he didn't know whether it was blood or tears, flowing down his cheeks, "Yuan Shao slaughtered Zhongliang! God's justice is clear, and there will be retribution!"
Zhang He rode in, his spear penetrated Qi Zhou's chest, and blood spurted out.
"...there will be...retribution..."
Qi Zhou looked up to the sky and fell.
…………………………
"Well done!" Yuan Shao appeared at the gate of Gaoyang Mansion with a smile, surrounded by guards, and said to Zhang He, "Junyi clean up the streets and don't let the traitors escape!"
"Wei!" Zhang He responded with his hands still expressionless, then nodded slightly to Yuan Shao, then retreated and led his soldiers to start searching along the streets for the Qu Yi soldiers who had fled in all directions.
With the four gates tightly closed, Qu Yi's soldiers had no way to escape. Soon they were forced out from alleys or houses and died under swords and guns.
Zhang He immediately stood under the archway on the cross street, looking up at the three big characters on the archway, his eyes moved slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking about...
Zhang He was from Hejian. In the early years of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he was dissatisfied with the Yellow Turban bandits slaughtering the countryside, so he angrily joined the army with some of his brothers. Later, he accumulated meritorious service and was promoted to Army Sima, which was more or less a middle-level general.
However, they soon encountered a dispute between Han Fu and Yuan Shao. Zhang He stayed behind closed doors at the time and did not participate in the conflict between Han Fu and Yuan Shao. Therefore, he was not implicated in Han Fu's downfall, and naturally did not get Yuan Shao's support. How much reuse.
But this time here in Gaoyang, regardless of whether they were obeying orders or submitting certificates of honor, Zhang He and Zhang He's soldiers were responsible for strangling Qu Yi's soldiers in the periphery.
Zhang He also knew whether Qu Yi was a traitor, but what could he do?
Han Fu was still a state shepherd back then, but wasn't he pulled down by Yuan Shao and died in the wilderness?
The sun peeked out from the clouds, and shed a few rays of sunlight very stingily, illuminating a small part of the street, making the blood on the ground and walls appear more and more bright red, and also making the places that were not illuminated become more and more red. Darkness is like a corner of hell.
A few rays of sunshine also fell on the archway, reflecting the big words "Zhongyi Fang" stained with blood in the archway...
"Sima, this matter..." The guard beside Zhang He couldn't help but lean forward slightly and whispered, "It's a bit weird..."
"Shut up!" Zhang He glanced at him and shouted in a low voice, "This matter is not allowed to be discussed! Anyone who violates the order will be severely punished!"
"...Wei." Seeing Zhang He's behavior, the guards on the side also understood the seriousness of the matter, responded one after another, and then stood aside in silence.
Zhang He had no expression on his face, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Unite the Hu people to rebel?"
It's really a good reason.
Or rather an excuse.
But the question is, is this excuse really tenable?
Is Qu Yi really a traitor? If he was a traitor, he might bring three hundred soldiers to the door. If he was really a traitor, would he openly enter the government office and have a good time?
This Gaoyang banquet was actually a trap set by Yuan Shao, and Qu Yi was just the prey caught in the trap.
Is it possible to hide it?
Obviously, it's impossible to hide it, it's just a matter of time.
Qu Yi can be said to be a banner for the arrogant and right-wing gentry in Jizhou. But now that this banner falls, it will inevitably cause an uproar among the arrogant and right-wing gentry in Jizhou!
He can order his subordinates not to discuss this matter anymore, but is it possible that the blood flowing in Gaoyang is so easily purged and forgotten? When Yuan Shao fought with the Jizhou nobles, the first unlucky person was Qu.
Justice, and as the sword and gun in Yuan Shao's hands, what kind of situation will he face in the future?
As long as the external enemy still exists, disaster will occur within the wall. Is this really a good thing?
Zhang He doesn't know and has no answer.
Zhang He did not expect that Yuan Shao would attack Qu Yi, because normally, although Gongsun Zan had just been defeated, there was still Gongsun Du in the north and other princes in the south. It did not mean that the world had been settled and the cunning rabbit died.
At Gongzang's time, at such a juncture, it would undoubtedly be a foolish act to kill one's own general.
But Zhang He also heard a little bit about it. The noble nobles of Jizhou were very dissatisfied with Yuan Shao's move to ennoble his two sons as governors of Qingzhou and Youzhou. They were also talking about it and had Qu Yi killed.
A strong warning...
Undoubtedly, once Qu Yi died, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, who were not here, must have gone to accept Qu Yi's remaining soldiers. In this way, the Jizhou gentry would have no friendly generals, and they would not be able to stir up much trouble.
Already.
This is tantamount to killing a chicken to scare the monkeys.
Yuan Shao can't do without the Jizhou gentry for the time being, and it's really hard to use a big name like Tian, but Qu Yi is just right, it won't involve too much, and it has enough weight. Even Zhang He can do it.
You can imagine how horrified and incomprehensible the noble nobles in Jizhou were when they received this news.
Qu Yi was the hero in attacking Gongsun Zan!
Such a hero was killed as soon as Yuan Shao told him to. What else could these gentry nobles in Jizhou do to show off and think highly of themselves?
By the way, there is another person.
Liu He...
Liu He is the son of Liu Yu. Because Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu, Liu He stayed with Yuan Shao to fight against Gongsun Zan and had many contacts with Qu Yi. Now that Qu Yi is killed, Liu He will
How to deal with yourself?
Stay and become Yuan Shao's subordinate, or...
Although it has to be said that Yuan Shao's execution of Qu Yi did deal a heavy blow to the nobles of the Jizhou gentry, it also brought about many problems, and these problems may not seem like much now, but as time goes by
As time goes by, maybe it will break out one day...
