Chapter 307 Sensitive and fragile, survival and destruction
Chapter 307: Sensitivity and vulnerability, survival and destruction
On the south bank of the Yellow River, Yi Xiaotian was "being" bought, bought, bought inexplicably... While he was surprised, he smiled at the inexplicable kindness of the Yanjin merchants.
At the same time, the north bank of the Yellow River was shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere.
Yuan Shao returned to the north of the Yellow River and temporarily stationed in Liyang City!
After being defeated, his emotions became more sensitive and fragile...
But now, he is facing a huge problem - Yuan Jun's 400,000 surrendered soldiers have returned.
According to normal logic, Yuan Shao should be grinning from ear to ear with joy. This is equivalent to his main army. With this army, he can immediately regroup and fight Cao Cao again...
However, Yuan Shao has never had a time of normal logic. He has always been very suspicious, and he has suffered repeated defeats, and his mood has long been shattered...
He immediately gave the order.
"Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow!"
Facing the 400,000 yuan returning Yuan army, what greeted them was not an open city gate, but... cold arrows!
"Whoosh", "whoosh", "whoosh"...
From the top of Liyang City Tower, pitch-black arrows streaked across the silent night...like locusts sweeping across the city, shooting densely towards the bottom of the city tower...
"ah…"
"How could it be... we want to go home!"
"Run...run..."
In an instant, 400,000 Yuan's troops surrendered, and those at the forefront... were unprepared and fell in large numbers.
Wails and screams are endless...
Even where the body and arrows met, countless blood stains quickly flowed together, forming pools of blood everywhere. The entire city of Liyang looked so terrifying!
400,000 Yuan troops surrendered. Originally, they were in Cao Ying and their hearts were with Yuan... They were always thinking about their families in the north, and they were always thinking about leaving Cao Ying and crossing the river to return to the north!
Thanks to Cao Cao's benevolence, he immediately ordered the return of all the halberds and armor of Yuan Jun's surrendered soldiers. Those who were willing to return to the north would not be forced to keep them. He also distributed enough food to everyone to allow them to cross the Yellow River and return home north.
"Who doesn't have a home yet?" Cao Cao's words made all the 400,000 soldiers of Yuan's army shed tears...
With a grateful mood, they crossed the Yellow River by boat and planned to return to the north...back to their familiar hometown!
But... what awaits them is this deadly rain of arrows!
"Mr. Yuan, please open the city gate, please open the city gate..."
A veteran who had been hit by an arrow climbed to the gate of Liyang City step by step. He screamed crazily. "We are... we are coming home! Mr. Yuan, we are coming home..."
The cold voice moved people... Finally, under Yuan Shao's indifference, even if the veteran shed his last drop of blood, the gate of Liyang City still did not open!
Thump…thump…
The old soldier tried his best to hold himself up. He faced the north. He died under Liyang City. He died with his eyes open!
call…
The death of the old soldier made all Yuan Jun's soldiers fall into silence! Their eyes were blurred and they were undecided. Now? Where should we go?
…
Also returning with the army was Ju Shou.
He was originally surprised as to why Cao Cao was so kind to let him go and let his 400,000 surrendered soldiers go home.
Now he understands...
It is true that Cao Cao has bad intentions, but Yuan Shao is even worse... Yuan Shao's suspicious temper has killed countless returning soldiers, and is about to ruin the 400,000 soldiers returning home, and even... ruin the entire northern border.
"Yuan Benchu, Yuan Benchu, you can't defeat Cao Cao, you will never be able to defeat Cao Cao..." Jushou couldn't help but sigh...
Huh...then he exhaled again.
He looked around at the soldiers who were unable to advance or retreat, and were still pleading despite the rain of arrows...with infinite emotion in his heart.
"Such a plan to risk death and survive later, such a plan to infinitely magnify Yuan Shao's character weaknesses... Such a plan to quietly win the hearts of 400,000 soldiers, was it really you... Cao Mengde who came up with it?
?”
Thinking of this, Jushou shook his head...
According to Cao Cao's style of doing things, Jushu would rather believe that he would kill these 400,000 surrendered soldiers than believe that he would come up with such a "shrimp and pig's heart" plan!
"That's all... whether it's Cao Cao or the experts around Cao Cao, I, Ju Shou, am really convinced!"
Jushou murmured something.
Yes, he was convinced, and at the same time, he completely gave up on Yuan Shao!
I saw him wave his arms and roar.
"Brothers, go back... What is under Liyang City is arrows, blood, and suffering... Yuan Shao no longer regards us as his own!"
"Brothers, we have misjudged Yuan Benchu, we have completely misjudged him..."
"Go back, let's go back to Cao Cao's place. Yuan Shao won't let us go home, so let's help Cao Cao fight back and fight back to a new home!"
Jushou still has prestige among the officers and soldiers of the three armies...
As soon as he shouted, countless soldiers came to support him and echoed him.
For a while, similar shouts came one after another, one after another.
Too.
You guys can't go back to the north, do you still have a choice?
The only way is to cross the Yellow River and return to Cao Cao...
Since you can't go back, then simply fight back and let your hometown change its owner!
Encouraged by Ju Shou, thoughts like this quickly spread among the 400,000 Yuan soldiers surrendering... Everyone turned around one after another, no one begged Yuan Shao anymore, and no one rushed to the city gate again.
Their hearts are already dead. The next time they come to Liyang City, they will be the two opposing sides, their opponents. They will fight Yuan Shao to the death!
…
From the top of Liyang City Tower, I looked at the figures of hundreds of thousands of surrendered soldiers returning south.
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Yuan Shao laughed sadly.
"What do I say? Look... they have all withdrawn. This was originally Cao Cao's plan. These traitors have surrendered to Cao Cao. This time they tricked me into opening the city gate. Huh, how can such a trick be hidden?
My Yuan Shao’s eyes! Huh!”
Yuan Shao had to get angry...
This is the so-called "persecution paranoia". As long as it concerns Cao Cao, he always feels that he is about to be persecuted.
"My lord Shengming..." Guo Tu, the No. 1 dog licker, bowed his hands. "How could Cao Cao's treacherous plot be hidden from Duke Yuan's eyes? Each of these soldiers who surrendered to the enemy should be shot to death!"
Guo Tu's words were very useful to Yuan Shao...
"Hahahaha." Yuan Shao laughed, his smile was extremely refreshing.
After about ten breaths, his laughter suddenly stopped.
"Hmph..." With a cold snort, he clenched his fists tightly... "Cao Ah Man, our duel has just begun!"
Speaking of this, Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes, and a sharp edge suddenly appeared in his eyes.
But at this time.
"Repay...my lord."
A guard quickly walked up to the tower and immediately reported the incident.
"Master Tan has raised 70,000 soldiers and horses from Qingzhou and is on his way there; Master Xi has raised 50,000 cavalry from Youzhou and will be able to reach Liyang City in three days; Master Shang has mobilized 60,000 soldiers and horses from Jizhou and is also on his way. Gao Gan
The general came with 50,000 Bingzhou cavalry and rushed to help!"
"Okay, okay, okay"
After hearing three good words in a row, Yuan Shao felt sad. He felt that he had given birth to three sons and a good nephew.
Yuan Shao laughed loudly, and while laughing, cold words came out.
——"Cao A'hao, Cao A'hao...your days of success are over! Let's compete again!"
