Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

With such a simple boost, the living soldiers regained some morale because they didn't want to die.

As long as they are normal people, they don't want to die.

Only by fighting desperately can we leave alive.

Therefore, those soldiers fought hard to protect Yuan Shao and his son and broke out again.

In this way, they escaped for a few miles, but another group of intercepting soldiers appeared in front of them.

"Ambush again!"

Yuan Shao was shocked and wailed, "I'm going to die this day!"

Before they could stop, there was a sharp piercing sound from the front, and huge long arrows shot out from the three-bow bed crossbow.

Yuan Jun's soldiers had already learned the power of this weapon. Seeing the sharp arrows coming, they were in a mess and wanted to dodge one after another, but the long arrows came very fast, and before they had time to react, their lives were harvested. A shattered corpse fell.

At this moment, the remaining Yuan Jun suffered heavy casualties.

"Protect the lord!"

General Qu Yi shouted and ordered the rest of the cavalry to protect Yuan Shao and leave.

"Yun Chang, go and bring back Yuan Shao's head."

Among the cao army soldiers in ambush, the leader was Chen Yang.

The distance between the two armies was not too far. Even though Chen Yang had never seen Yuan Shao, he still saw the man wearing the general's armor in the rebellious army at a glance.

"Yes!"

Guan Yu raised the Qinglong Yanyue Saber and rushed to the front peak with thousands of cavalry.

"Thief general, stop for me!"

When Qu Yi saw Guan Yu rushing, he took all the remaining soldiers and rushed towards him desperately.

Guan Yu wanted to kill Yuan Shao, but was entangled by the elite led by Qu Yi, so he had to stop.

When Yuan Shao saw the man with the red face and long beard, he immediately thought of the dead Yan Liang, Wen Chou, how dare he stay any longer?

He hurriedly took his three sons with him, and walked as fast as he could under the protection of the cavalry.

"We can't let Yuan Shao run away." Chen Yang narrowed his eyes.

"I come!"

Li Yuan responded and led his troops to intercept him.

"Quick... let's go!"

Yuan Shao kept urging.

He didn't want to die, as long as he survived, he still had a chance for revenge.

"My lord, give me your armor!"

Jiang Yiqu galloped forward, speaking in a hurry.

Yuan Shao hesitated for a moment, he finally understood what Jiang Yiqu wanted to do, hurriedly took off his armor and handed it to the other party, and said: "If you can come back, I will treat you generously, if you can't, I will take care of your family! "

Jiang Yiqu didn't talk nonsense with him, put on the armor in twos and twos, and shouted: "Protect the lord and leave!"

After speaking, he separated directly from Yuan Shao, took the elite around him, attracted Li Yuan's attention, and fled in another direction.

"You must come back!" Yuan Shao's voice became hoarse, and then a little choked up.

He didn't expect to have such a loyal general under his command.

Because the distance between the two armies was getting farther and farther, Chen Yang and the others couldn't see the scene of changing clothes.

They saw only a man wearing the general's armor running away, and Li Yuan led the cavalry to chase after him. The strength of their cavalry was far superior to that of Yuan Shao's cavalry, and their speed was also faster.

A distance of several miles was shortened in the blink of an eye.

Li Yuan took the lead and charged into the army with a long halberd in his hand.

Just as Yuan Jun was about to fight back, he was swept by Li Yuan with a halberd before he could make a move, and several cavalrymen were beaten by their horses.

After a while, Li Yuan came behind Jiang Yiqu, swung his halberd and killed again.

"Thief general, Hugh is rampant!"

Jiang Yiqu turned around on his horse, and raised his spear in his hand, trying to resist, but in front of Li Yuan, he was nothing more than that.

Li Yuan's halberd pressed down hard, and the opponent's spear flew out. At this moment, he finally saw Jiang Yiqu facing him.

"You are not Yuan Shao!"

Li Yuan was shocked.

He had met Yuan Shao in Bingzhou before, and knew what Yuan Shao looked like.

He realized in an instant that he had been fooled, and immediately abandoned Jiang Yiqu to pursue the real Yuan Shao.

Just as Li Yuan turned around to leave, Jiang Yiqu led his troops to attack.

As a last resort, Li Yuan beat Jiang Yiqu to death with a halberd, and shouted: "Don't let Yuan Shao escape!"

While chasing them, Li Yuan saw a group of Yuan Shao's deserters heading in another direction, so he immediately led his troops to chase after them.

But at this time Yuan Shao had gone far away, and he was no longer seen.

After Yuan Shao escaped from the battlefield, he returned to Yecheng in a state of embarrassment, and ordered the guards to block all the gates of Yecheng.

Especially the city gate that was blown up by Chen Yang has been blocked with boulders, fearing that Cao Cao will come to attack the city again.

"I killed General Jiang!"

Yuan Shao went up to the tower and saw that there was no one below. He knew that Jiang Yiqu would never come back.

Not only Jiang Yiqu, but also Qu Yi didn't come back, I'm afraid it's more or less ominous.

"As long as the lord is alive, he can kill Cao thief and avenge the two generals." Shen Pei said excitedly.

"I have fought dozens of battles, but I am so embarrassed today, I will lose myself today!"

Yuan Shao raised his head and sighed, "Go back to the prefecture as soon as possible, reorganize your troops, and swear to a showdown with the Cao bandits!"

cough cough...

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly covered his chest and coughed wildly.

puff!

A mouthful of blood spurted out amidst Yuan Shao's coughing, his face was pale and his eyes were lifeless.

"Father!"

"Lord!"

The people around him yelled.

Yuan Shang quickly supported Yuan Shao with his hands, and shouted again: "Hurry up and find the doctor in Yecheng!"

After this battle, Yuan Shao was sick in bed, and his health deteriorated day by day, so he had to go back to Jizhou to recuperate, leaving Yuan Shang and Shenpei in Yecheng.

-

"General, this is Qu Yi's head."

Guan Yu threw aside a man with a bloody head, knelt down in front of Chen Yang, and said, "Yun Chang is incompetent and cannot kill Yuan Shao."

"Guangping was incompetent and let Yuan Shao escape."

Li Yuan also knelt down and said guiltily.

"It's just letting Yuan Shao escape, it's just a trivial matter!"

Chen Yang didn't care, and said: "Yuan Shao is in danger, there is nothing to be afraid of."

He clearly remembered that after the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao was seriously ill. After his death, the three sons of the Yuan family were in civil strife.

This battle lasted from midnight last night to today's evening.

Dead and wounded are everywhere.

When Chen Yang returned to Liyang, it was already night.

"Zian, what about Yuan Shao?" Cao Cao anxiously waited for Chen Yang's last news, and asked expectantly and excitedly.

"Let him escape anyway."

Chen Yang added: "But he will not live long."

"Pity!"

Cao Cao let out a long sigh, and soon he laughed again: "However, it doesn't matter if you escape, this time we won a big victory!"

"Everyone in the world thinks that we are no match for Yuan Shao, but now I want to let the people in the world know that they are wrong!"

Because Yuan Shao's strength is strong, far superior to Cao Cao, no one was optimistic about Cao Cao from the beginning of this war.

"Prime Minister, now that Yuan Shaoxin is defeated and has fled back to Yecheng, we should take advantage of the victory and attack." At this time, Jia Xu stepped forward to offer advice.

"I think it's so inappropriate!"

Xun Yu's thinking was very conservative. He said: "We have sent troops in the spring, and now it is almost winter, and the battle has been going on for almost a year. The soldiers have been fighting for a long time, and the soldiers are full of resentment. It is better to rest and recuperate, so it is inconvenient to continue to use troops."
