The first thousand and seventy-two chapters come back in a big defeat
"Boom!" The flammable paper and wood quickly caught fire as soon as the flames reached them.
"Burn it, burn it all! I won't pursue it anymore..."
Cao Zhi's attitude and words made the four people on the side stunned for a while. Soon Jia Xu, who had not spoken another word, breathed a sigh of relief and immediately gathered and picked up the wooden letters and letters on the table on the ground.
After they were all thrown into the Boshan stove, Jia Xu just took out the first wooden letter that he had just hidden in his lapel, and was about to throw it into the stove to be burned as well.
When it fell, a big hand suddenly intercepted Jia Xu who was about to throw it away.
"All the offenders can be spared, but the culprit must be eliminated!" This was Cao Zhi's voice, which represented the final verdict on the whole matter.
"Ah! Lord..."
"good!"
When Jia Xu was surprised and the light in Xu You's eyes flashed again, another voice began to say with infinite emotion: "Cao Zhi, you are indeed an outstanding person among people. You will never be merciful when you should be cruel. Big evil must be punished."
, don’t correct the small mistakes, great job, more than one point better than Yuan Shao, so you are destined to succeed, and we are destined to fail! Send me out, I can already close my eyes!"
These are Jushou’s last words!
Jushou and Yizhanzhi refused to surrender and all the soldiers who submitted to Cao Zhi were executed at Yangwu on the second day.
Their corpses were delivered to Yuan Jun's camp in Liyang the next day. After gathering the defeated army, Yuan Shao, who was in panic all day long, saw Ju Shou's head and immediately felt that Li Yang could no longer stay. He had harvested what Cao Jun had already done.
The latest information on gathering on the south bank of the river to prepare for crossing may be expected.
After Yuan Shao was defeated in Guandu, only three days later, he gathered 60,000 to 70,000 scattered soldiers and horses in the Liyang camp, and hurriedly left the camp and returned to Yecheng.
######The dark clouds were heavy. Thirty miles away from Yecheng, Yuan Shao's face was even gloomier than the sky. How he wished that the sky was darker at this time, so as to cover his shameful expression.
As they approached the majestic outline of Ye City, countless flags and flags appeared in the distance. The Yuan Jun soldiers, who had become frightened, saw the flags and flags, and they were reminded of the red flags and flags of Cao Jun and the heads hanging on them.
.
When countless Yuan soldiers pointed at the flags in the distance and screamed nervously, fortunately, there was a faint sound of drum music. They realized that these were the officials who stayed behind in Yecheng who had come out specially to greet Yuan Shao and the defeated generals.
If they were to return in triumph, this would be enough. But now they were defeated and returned in a great defeat. Wouldn't it be particularly embarrassing to welcome them in this way?
Of course, the most embarrassing person in this team was Yuan Shao. When Yuan Tan awkwardly looked at his father, who had aged several dozen years in recent days, he saw Yuan Shao's chest straighten out as soon as he heard the sound of the drums, and he subconsciously straightened himself out.
Here comes the robe and the "Yuan Shao scarf".
But soon Yuan Shao realized that he was defeated and fled back. He stopped what he was doing. Looking back at the long team behind him and the hundreds of "white horse followers", he just
I understand that I have lost the majesty of the "big general" in the past, and now I am almost like a lost dog.
"How can I see my elders in Hebei again?"
Thinking of his failure, the grieving Yuan Shao sat on the horse and burst into tears. Guo Tu, Shen Pei and others who accompanied him understood that Yuan Shao was sighing like Xiang Yu on the bank of Wujiang River.
Fearing that Yuan Shao would follow Xiang Yu's example, Shen Pei immediately advised him: "My lord, don't be sad, we just fell into Cao Zhi's temporary plan. With our strength, as long as the lord regains his confidence and gathers his old troops, half of the world's officials will come from our own country."
With Yuan Clan's power, we will soon be able to regain our strength. When the time comes to fight Cao Zhi again, it is still unknown who will win!" After Shen Pei and Guo Tu looked at each other, he immediately knelt down in front of Yuan Shao's horse and said this
Words of encouragement.
The words of the judge made Yuan Shao stop crying. At this time, Guo Tu and others also came forward to comfort Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao immediately felt a warmth flowing in his heart. It is true that his family has a great business, and a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. He is here
The actual losses in the Battle of Guandu were about 60,000 to 70,000 people. Most of them fled in the final chaos or were captured. At this time, there were nearly 70,000 troops gathered behind him. He only had to return to
After Yecheng, he sent people around to collect the troops and horses that had fled from Guandu. He believed that he would soon be able to collect 100,000. Plus the troops and horses that were originally left behind in the four states, as long as he did not lose his confidence, he would be able to regroup. Cao Zhi
Even if you muster up the momentum to eat him in one go, it won't be that easy.
Yuan Shao's mood changed, and soon the team to greet him arrived. The main officials who greeted him were Feng Ji, Xin Ping, Xin Pi, etc. They thought they already knew about Yuan Shao's defeat of Guandu, but when they met, these officials still faced each other.
Yuan Shao was respectful and polite as usual, and each one held the saddle and the bridle to ask for their hard work.
All this made Yuan Shao feel comforted, and he also began to enjoy the relief and happiness brought by the welcome of drum music again.
But soon Yuan Shao noticed that there was one missing person in the team that greeted him.
"Why is Tian Feng missing? Has he suffered from abdominal disease again?"
Yuan Shao's question made Feng Ji and others speechless. They looked at each other in confusion. Just when they didn't know how to answer, Yuan Shao realized his confusion.
"Didn't Tian Feng get imprisoned because of his advice to stop him from crossing the river to attack Cao Cao? Alas, he was confused!"
Yuan Shao, who once again made a fool of himself in front of his subordinates, patted his forehead. Just as he was thinking of justifying his explanation, Yuan Tan stepped out in time to help Yuan Shao out of the siege and said: "My father has been busy with military affairs in the past few days, so he has long forgotten about this matter.
Oh, I forgot... Please forgive me, please forgive me..."
"Haha... there, there, it's all the military affairs' fault..."
Under Guo Tu's immediate greeting, Yuan Shao followed everyone and giggled for a while, even if the matter was exposed.
Drums led the way, and then the defeated army moved on.
After a small episode, the matter should be over. But amidst the messy and annoying music, what gradually emerged in Yuan Shao's mind was Tian Feng's face, whose facial features were slightly deformed due to excitement.
"General, if you don't listen to me, it will be disadvantageous for you to attack!"
It was because of these words that he was sent to prison by Yuan Shao. But today, it seems that everything has proved Tian Feng's prediction, he was right, and Yuan Shao was wrong.
But now Yuan Shao has been thinking about how to face Tian Feng's problem after returning to Yecheng. It is extremely difficult for Yuan Shao to admit his mistakes, so how can he get over that embarrassment?
Yuan Shao thought about this problem and naturally turned his head to Feng Ji and Guo Tu, who were walking side by side on the left side.
These two people were originally roundworms in Yuan Shao's belly. When they saw Yuan Shao's eyes, they immediately felt like they knew what Yuan Shao was worried about. Especially Guo Tu, who immediately came closer to Yuan Shao before he could say anything else.
Ji whispered in his ear: "Tian Feng! How is he in prison recently?"
Feng Ji immediately understood. He took a few steps forward on his horse and whispered to Yuan Shao who was depressed: "My lord was still thinking about Tian Feng just now, but this scholar was not grateful to my lord in prison. He heard that our army
After the defeat, he actually held his hands and laughed in prison..."
"Really, he dared to laugh at me, the murderer!" Yuan Shao was furious, and he immediately forgot about his hesitation and worry just now.
Then he took off his sword, handed it to the army chief and said: "Go and get Tian Feng's head from prison!"
Yuan Shao returned to the general's mansion. As soon as he sat down, the chief clerk came to Yuan Shao with a bloody sword and Tian Feng's head.
"What did he say at the end?" Yuan Shao asked casually after seeing the head presented by the chief register.
"You know you will die!" This was Tian Feng's original words conveyed to Yuan Shao by the chief clerk, and the chief clerk said that when he walked into Tian Feng's cell, Tian Feng looked calm, had already arranged his prison clothes, and was sitting upright, as if waiting for him to go.
.
"oh?"
Yuan Shao was puzzled and continued to ask about Tian Feng's recent affairs. What made Yuan Shao more and more shocked was that the fact that Tian Feng was gloating about his defeat in prison was very inconsistent.
According to what the chief clerk learned from the jailer, when Tian Feng heard that Yuan Shao was defeated in Guandu, he did not gloat about his misfortune. Instead, he lamented and said to the jailer who came to congratulate Tian Feng on his impeachment: "On the day when Mr. Yuan returned to Yecheng,
This is the day of my death!”
Unexpectedly, his prediction was so accurate. Today, news came from Yecheng that Yuan Shao had returned to his army. The chief bookkeeper for the execution came first from the prison where Tian Feng was imprisoned.
"Ah!" When Yuan Shao heard that Tian Feng had predicted his own death, he couldn't help but exclaimed. When he looked at Tian Feng's head in front of him, he unknowingly felt a rush of cold air from the soles of his feet as he pushed against the door.
It was as if a voice was ringing in Yuan Shao's ears at this moment, "You are generous on the outside and jealous on the inside, and don't care about loyalty. Today, you came back defeated and you are so ashamed that you never want to see me again. Hum, your death date will not be the same as mine."
Far away!"
"Ah! Take it away quickly, take it away..."
When Yuan Shao suddenly looked at Tian Feng's head, with the recollection in his ears, he actually saw the pair of white eyes of the dead Tian Feng, sneering at him.
This is such a weird thing! But Yuan Shao firmly believed that he was right. Feeling dizzy and tinnitus, he suddenly straightened up, poked Tian Feng's head and screamed wildly. His breathing became more and more chaotic and rapid.
Yuan Shao's left and right Bai Ma Yi immediately stepped forward to support Yuan Shao, and together with the chief clerk, they quickly picked up the wooden box containing Tian Feng's head and hurried out.
Several people were puzzled for a long time along the way, because those who were right next to Yuan Shao had not seen what Yuan Shao claimed, so how did he see it?...
Just as the chief clerk and others hurriedly exited the hall, Yuan Tan, Shen Pei, Feng Ji and others also hurriedly rushed into the hall where Yuan Shao was.
When they passed Tian Feng's head, they were stunned for a moment, then ignored Tian Feng's head and continued to walk quickly to Yuan Shao, who was covering his face with his hands and in a certain state of panic.
