Chapter 672 Yuan Shao, Avoid the Right Choice Again!
Taiyuan City, Wangfuzhong.
Now Yuan Shao is in even worse shape.
Yuan Shang became the eldest son of the Jin Dynasty. He was in high spirits and had endless energy and willingness to deal with government affairs. Yuan Shao followed suit and delegated power and handed over all the government affairs of the Jin Dynasty to Yuan Shang. He drank and enjoyed singing and dancing every day. When the feeling came,
, I took the singer with me to have an in-depth exchange of ideas.
This is Yuan Shao in recent times.
After continuous beatings, Yuan Shao's body lost a lot of weight, his eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes, and there were a few dark circles.
After all, Yuan Shao is not a time manager and cannot make reasonable arrangements.
Yuan Shang knew what Yuan Shao had done, so he didn't try to persuade him at all. On the contrary, he wanted it. His father no longer had any desire for power, so he took power openly and openly, and eradicated all influence of Yuan Xi in Taiyuan City.
On this day, when Yuan Shang was discussing with Shen Pei to further remove Yuan Xi's remaining troops in Taiyuan City, the sound of rapid footsteps was heard, and the soldiers hurriedly entered and reported: "Your Majesty, something serious has happened."
Yuan Shang became the heir to the throne, and he also paid attention to rules. He looked at the panicked soldiers and scolded: "How can you behave in such a panic?"
The soldier said in fear: "Your Majesty, Guan Yu led three thousand cavalry and appeared more than twenty miles east of Taiyuan City, heading towards Taiyuan City."
Yuan Shang's mind felt like it was exploding.
Twenty miles!
Guan Yu appeared with his cavalry, and the cavalry was fast, which meant they would arrive soon.
Yuan Shang was once on the battlefield in Yijing City. He saw Guan Yu leading troops to charge and being ambushed and killed by Guan Yu. He was extremely afraid in his bones. He was stunned for a long time before he recovered and asked again: "Is the news true?"
"true!"
The soldiers reported quickly.
The soldier was very panicked and said: "I don't know how Guan Yu appeared. There is no news at all."
"I know, let's explore again!"
Yuan Shang's cheeks twitched and he looked uneasy. He quickly looked at Shen Pei on the side and asked: "Shang Shu, Guan Yu and his cavalry suddenly appeared twenty miles away from Taiyuan City. What should we do?"
The judge also looked very nervous.
The sudden appearance of Guan Yu means that Yuan Xi in the east may have been defeated. There may even be Tian Chou's army coming behind Guan Yu.
After thinking about it, the judge said: "Your Majesty, this is a serious matter, and we must report it to the King immediately and ask the King to make a decision."
Yuan Shang was also confused and nodded hurriedly and said: "Let's go quickly."
He stood up and left in a hurry.
Shen Pei followed Yuan Shang, and the two of them arrived at the backyard of the palace in a blink of an eye, and saw Yuan Shao who was enjoying the dance of the singer. Yuan Shang suddenly became very irritable, feeling that his father was too bad and too nervous.
"Get out, everyone."
Yuan Shang ignored Yuan Shao's thoughts and gave the order directly.
Yuan Shao frowned and said: "Xianfu, you are the eldest son of the Jin Dynasty, and I have delegated power to you. However, you are not satisfied yet. You even scolded my singer. How can you behave like this? Do you want me to abdicate the throne? You will be the one to do it."
King Jin."
Yuan Shang listened to Yuan Shao's almost complaining and mocking words, but ignored them at all, and quickly said: "Father, Guan Yu appeared twenty miles east of Taiyuan, and Guan Yu brought all cavalry."
brush!
Yuan Shao's complexion changed suddenly.
He felt that Yuan Shang was acting arrogantly, and originally wanted to beat Yuan Shang up, but now that he heard the news, he no longer had such thoughts, and his expression became even more anxious.
He glanced at Yuan Shang, who was helpless, and at the eager Shen Pei, and directly ordered people to summon Jushu, Feng Ji, Xin Pi, Xin Ping and Xun Chen, and then took Yuan Shang and Shen Pei to the hall to wait.
Not long after, Ju Shou, Feng Ji and others all arrived.
Yuan Shao talked about the sudden appearance of Guan Yu with his cavalry, and finally said: "Now that Guan Yu has come to kill me, let's talk about what to do?"
All of them looked solemn.
Guan Yu is here.
This means that Bingzhou's last line of defense, Taihang Baxing, has been broken.
Seeing that no one expressed his position, Yuan Shao looked at Ju Shou and asked, "Ju Qing, what do you think we should do?"
A flash of light flashed across Jushou's eyes, and he regained his composure in the blink of an eye. Before that, he had received a letter from Tian Feng, saying that Tian Feng had officially surrendered to the Wu Kingdom, and hoped that Jushou would also serve the Wu Kingdom.
Tian Feng gave some eloquent words of persuasion and talked about Wu's many advantages. Finally, he hoped that Jushou would keep Yuan Shao and not let Yuan Shao leave Taiyuan City.
Tian Feng did not say anything about other plans.
Big plans are impossible to explain.
Jushou left Yuan Shao behind, thus completing a link in the plan.
If it were the once high-spirited Yuan Shao, Jushou would definitely swear loyalty to the death. During this period, starting from Ye City and then to Taiyuan City, Yuan Shao was always in a mess, completely ignoring the overall situation and giving up resistance.
Such Yuan Shao disappointed Ju Shou.
If Yuan Shao fights to the death, Jushu is willing to follow Yuan Shao and fight to the death.
However, Yuan Shao indulged in drinking and sex, became thin and weak, had dark circles in both eyes, and completely lost his fighting spirit. In addition, Yuan Shang fought for power and only focused on internal fighting, which completely failed to unite people's hearts.
Jushou did not hesitate and chose to submit.
Jushou heard Yuan Shao's words and said seriously: "Your Majesty, the only thing we can do now is to guard Taiyuan. Taiyuan City is a strong city, and there are sufficient grain, grass and supplies in the city."
"Now that we are guarding the city, we can use the city to consume Tian Chou's soldiers and horses, so as not to be defeated."
"If we retreat now, we will be attacked by Guan Yu's cavalry as soon as we leave the county. Back in the Hejian Kingdom, there were Zhang Jia and Gao Lan at the rear. If we retreat now and faced with Guan Yu's cavalry, who can be the rear?"
"Once Guan Yu's cavalry comes up, our army outside will be crushed and slaughtered. Your Majesty will not be able to escape at all."
"There is still a glimmer of hope for holding on."
"Escape from Taiyuan and you will definitely be defeated."
Jushou solemnly said: "I suggest you stay in Taiyuan City, rely on Taiyuan's defense, and hand over the next war to Cao Cao. If Cao Cao loses, the king will either fight to the death or surrender. If Cao Cao wins, we will have an opportunity to fight to the death."
"
Yuan Shao thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case.
When they evacuated from Hejian Kingdom, they were covered up by Guan Yu and his men, and Yuan Shao also had a shadow in his heart.
Yuan Shao was afraid that Guan Yu would cover him up and kill him.
Therefore, after Yuan Shao weighed it up, he did not ask anyone else, but said loudly: "Ju Qing's arrangement makes sense. Next, we will stay in Taiyuan City and try our best to hold off Tian Chou's army."
He stared at Jushou and further said: "Jushou, you will be in charge of military affairs and take charge of the defense of the four-sided city. All generals will obey your arrangements. In this battle, we must guard the four-sided city gates to ensure victory."
"I obey!"
Jushou bowed and saluted.
Yuan Shao looked at Shen Pei again and ordered: "Qing Shen, you are responsible for the logistics. We must provide adequate supplies of food, grass, materials and equipment to ensure that there are no problems. If there are not enough equipment, just demolish the big houses in the city."
"Here!"
The judge responded immediately.
Yuan Shao looked around at the crowd and said in a deep voice: "Everyone cooperates sincerely and resist with all their strength."
"As you command!"
Everyone answered in unison and then retreated.
Yuan Shang, Shen Pei, Ju Sue and others left. Yuan Shang also gave some instructions to Ju Sue, but Yuan Shang's tone was stiff and condescending.
Jushu agreed verbally, but didn't take it seriously.
Yuan Shao asked him to take charge of the defense of the four-sided city, which was equivalent to asking him to welcome Tian Chou's army into the city. Every time Yuan Shao made a choice, he always made a mistake, and he liked to avoid all correct answers.
Jushou returned home to make arrangements, and then asked his family members to quietly leave the city to see Tian Chou, explain the current situation clearly, and said that they would wait for the army to arrive at the east gate.
