Chapter 1699: Yuan Tan kills Yuan Shang with tears
"But I finally left."
As soon as Gao Chong left, Zheng Lun and Chen Qi fell off their horses and lay directly on the ground, gasping for air.
Zheng Lun and Chen Qi did not dare to do this in front of Gao Chong just now. After all, once Gao Chong sees through the truth, even if Zhang Kui and Nangong Changwan are present, the two of them will probably be in trouble.
Zhang Kui and Nangong Changwan's injuries were lighter than those of Zheng Lun and Chen Qi, but neither of them looked very good-looking.
At first, Zhang Kui and Nangong Changwan were able to compete with Gao Chongguo when they joined forces, but with the addition of Zheng Lun and Chen Qi, the four of them could even suppress Gao Chong.
Everything was fine at first, Zhang Kui thought he had won the battle, but he didn't expect Gao Chong to suddenly explode.
The favored person with a force of 133, with the increase of the 'Holy Emperor', the force increased to 135.
Although there are only two more points, the battle situation is completely different.
Previously, under the siege of the four generals, Gao Chong was at a disadvantage, but with these 2 points of increase, Gao Chong was completely destroyed when he beat four generals, and the situation was completely reversed. It can be seen from this that in the later stages, Gao Chong
Every bit of increase in force is precious.
"Close the city gate immediately and reoccupy the city tower." Zhang Kuai ordered in a deep voice.
Because the Qin army retreated on its own initiative, the defenders in the city took back almost no casualties and recaptured the city tower that they had been unable to recapture after fighting for several hours. However, the east gate tower was already in a mess.
After Zhang Kui closed the city gate, he climbed onto the city tower again, but when he saw the tragic scene on the city tower, he was shocked.
Wherever Zhang Kui looked, he saw almost all the corpses of his own people, and not a single part of the city's defense equipment was intact. Ninety-five percent of the city's defense equipment had been destroyed by the Qin army.
"Report, Lord, the east gate has lost 56 catapults and 334 crossbows..." Zhang Kui reported with an ugly face.
"Report to King Han that Ximen has lost 49 catapults and 294 crossbows..." Yuan Hong reported with an extremely ugly face.
After hearing these reports, Han Xin suddenly felt dizzy. More than 90% of the defensive equipment in the east and west gates were damaged at one time. Even if all the defensive equipment stored in the warehouse were moved out, it would still not be enough to fill such a large city.
A big hole.
Han Xin tried to remain calm and asked: "How many sergeants were lost in total?"
Hearing this, Yuan Hong and Zhang Kui both wanted to look at Jushou. After a moment of contemplation, Jushou replied truthfully: "According to offensive statistics, our army suffered a total of 10,438 casualties in this battle.
people."
Hearing this, Han Xinxin trembled greatly. There were a total of 120,000 defenders in Ye City. As a result, more than 10,000 were lost at once. The defenses of the east and west gates were all destroyed. How could they still defend it?
Han Xin suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in a trembling voice: "What about the Qin army?"
"Only 3,324 corpses of Qin soldiers were found."
Hearing this, Han Xin suddenly smiled miserably.
The number of defenders in the city was clearly more than that of the Qin army who entered the city. As a result, the attacking Qin army only suffered 3,000 casualties, while the allied forces defending the city suffered more than 10,000 casualties.
What kind of battle is this?
Han Xin felt so aggrieved for the first time.
For such a huge loss, someone must stand up and take responsibility. And who is the person who caused all this? Of course it is Yuan Shang.
Prefect's Mansion, in the hall.
Han Xin and Yuan Tan looked at each other and saw murderous intent in each other's eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Hong lifted Yuan Shang in like a chicken and fell heavily to the ground.
"Ah, it hurts so much, please be gentle..."
Yuan Shang wailed in pain, and then he saw his eldest brother Yuan Tan, whose face was ashen above.
Yuan Shang couldn't help but feel something in his heart. He knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, begging for mercy: "Brother, I know I was wrong. Please spare my life."
Seeing that Yuan Tan still had a cold expression on his face and didn't say a word, Yuan Shang rolled his eyes and said: "It's Yuan Xi. It's Yuan Xi who wants to become the King of Zhao, so he tricked the younger brother into rebelling against you. The younger brother is also covered in lard."
I was so worried that I believed Yuan Xi's lies for a while, which led to a catastrophe. I beg the elder brother to give the younger brother another chance. The younger brother will never dare to do it again..."
Before Yuan Shang finished speaking, Yuan Tan's face became distorted and he shouted: "That's enough."
Yuan Tan couldn't sit still anymore, so he walked down and slapped Yuan Shang on the face, causing half of Yuan Shang's face to swell.
Unsatisfied with the slap, Yuan Tan slapped him three more times and roared: "Obviously you bewitched your second brother. After the deed was done, in order to monopolize the benefits, Yuan Tan secretly attacked and killed your biological brother who is a compatriot from the same mother. Now you have committed the crime
They were all blamed on the dead Yuan Xi.
Yuan Shang, why are you so vicious at such a young age?"
Yuan Shang was a little confused by Yuan Tan's beating, but when he heard Yuan Tan say that Yuan Xi was killed by himself, he was instantly beaten fiercely.
All the other Yuan Shangs are decent people, but Yuan Shang cannot admit to killing his second brother Yuan Xi under any circumstances, otherwise he will definitely die.
"No, the second brother loves me the most. How could I kill the second brother? The second brother died in the melee."
Yuan Shang started to defend himself anxiously. He didn't know how much injustice he had suffered.
When Yuan Tan saw this, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. He also felt that Yuan Shang was lying. Could it be that he had really been wronged?
Seeing Yuan Tan's hesitation, Han Xin immediately stood up and said: "Yuan Shang, I know you won't admit it, so I will convince you to death today.
Lift it up."
After saying that, a corpse was carried in by two soldiers. After lifting the white cloth, Yuan Shang's pupils shrank suddenly. It was the corpse of his second brother Yuan Xi that he had not had time to dispose of.
Han Xin opened Yuan Xi's body, pointed at the wounds on his back, and said calmly: "Although Yuan Xi had many wounds on his body, the fatal wound was the sword on his back.
Let me ask, who can make Yuan Xi defenseless and give Yuan Xi a famous sword blow behind his back?"
Hearing this, Yuan Tan's face turned ugly. It was obvious that no one except Yuan Shang could do it.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Yuan Shang quickly argued: "Han Xin, you must have evidence for what you said. Even if the second brother's fatal injury was on the back, it still doesn't prove that I was the one who stabbed him? Who saw it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Shang's mouth suddenly opened up and he couldn't say a word.
Yuan Shang saw Han Xin pull out the sword in his hand, and this sword was Yuan Shang's sword. He used this sword to kill his own brother.
"Yuan Shang, you don't recognize this sword, right? This is your sword, but it exactly matches the wound on Yuan Xi's body. Now you still dare to say that you didn't kill Yuan Xi?" Han Xin shouted.
