Three Kingdoms: Wolong's brother-in-law, tricking Liu Bei into seizing Jingzhou

"That's fine."

Xiao Fang snorted coldly, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes:

"In that case, let's destroy the enemy city and kill everyone in it!"

After saying this, Xiao Fang walked away.

at this time.

On the top of the city wall of Xiangping, the soldiers of the Liaodong Army were busy reporting what happened outside the city gate to the palace.

In the palace, Gongsun Kang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that Xiao Fang had retreated, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from him, and he slumped down in his seat.

He looked at the bloodstains on the ground that had not yet dried, but there was no regret in his heart, only deep hatred surging.

"Xiao Fang, you forced me to kill Yuan'er, I will settle this account with you sooner or later!
Sooner or later I will kill you to avenge my Yuan'er!"

Gongsun Kang swore with gritted teeth, his voice sounded like a curse from hell, making people shudder.

Gongsun Kang clamored for revenge.

But the reality was like a heavy slap in the face, which made him dizzy. Now he could only huddle in the isolated city like a trapped beast.

As time passed, Xiangping City had been under siege for a month.

Under the dual threats of war and hunger, the people in the city fled the city that was on the verge of despair in order to seek a chance of survival.

Gongsun Kang was once again faced with the dilemma of having no food to eat, and the Liaodong army was in a crisis of starvation.

The atmosphere in the palace hall was depressing.

Liu Yi and other generals had already become weak and powerless due to long-term hunger, and it seemed as if their souls had been sucked out of them.

At this moment, Gongsun Kang swaggered into the hall and sat directly on the throne.

What is incredible is that when all the people in the city were suffering from hunger, the only person in Xiangping City who was not starving was Gongsun Kang.

Not only that, he also miraculously gained weight.

This sharp contrast makes people feel angry and disgusted with his actions.

The generals frowned and felt resentful.

Then, they reported to Gongsun Kang that the "food" in the camp had been eaten up, and the morale of the army began to become uneasy.

There was a sudden burst of noisy discussions in the hall.

"Stop making so much noise!"

Gongsun Kang slammed the table. Everyone was frightened by the sudden roar and dared not utter a word. The hall suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Gongsun Kang stood up, glanced at everyone, and said loudly:

"We clearly still have food, why are you saying we're going to eat it all?"

The generals looked at Gongsun Kang in bewilderment and confusion.

"Liu Yi, how many wounded are there in the army?"

Gongsun Kang turned his gaze to Liu Yi and asked.

Liu Yi hesitated for a moment, then replied:
"Your Majesty, there are more than 3,000 people."

"How many of them can go into battle?" Gongsun Kang asked immediately.

"Then these three thousand men are useless."

Gongsun Kang waved his hands in disdain and said coldly:
"Since they are useless, just kill them..."

Having said this, he deliberately paused, then looked at the ministers meaningfully.

All the ministers suddenly understood, as if they were struck by a bolt from the blue.

At this moment, they suddenly realized that Gongsun Kang had actually set his sights on the wounded soldiers.

"Absolutely not~~"

Liu Yi quickly advised.

"Why not?"

Gongsun Kang asked back, with a hint of ferocity in his eyes.

"The wounded soldiers are all our brothers. How could we, how could we..."

Liu Yi's voice was hoarse and he couldn't speak for a while.

Gongsun Kang was unmoved and said coldly:
"To defend Xiangping and Liaodong, this is the only way!"

Liu Yi wanted to persuade him again.

"You don't have to say that!"

Gongsun Kang waved his hands impatiently and said resolutely:

"I have made up my mind on this matter. If anyone dares to persuade me again, I will never tolerate it!" Liu Yi was startled and felt fear in his heart, but he dared not say anything.

All the generals were so frightened that they dared not utter a word. They knew how cruel Gongsun Kang was and were afraid that they would end up being killed like Gongsun Yuan.

Following Gongsun Kang's order, the Liaodong Army's butcher knives ruthlessly slashed at their comrades.

For a moment, the city of Xiangping was filled with blood again, with shouts and screams intertwined together, as if it were hell on earth.

The eyes of those surviving Liaodong soldiers were filled with sadness, fear and anger, and their resentment towards Gongsun Kang grew rapidly in their hearts.

Finally, the wave of defections began to surge.

Unable to endure such cruel atrocities any longer, the Liaodong soldiers chose to flee in groups.

In just a few days, thousands of soldiers crossed the city and defected to the Han Dynasty, and Gongsun Kang's rule began to crumble.

When Gongsun Kang heard the news, he was angry and helpless. He immediately ordered the army to guard all gates strictly and anyone who dared to escape would be caught and killed.

Under brutal suppression, the trend of defection was finally temporarily curbed.

Gongsun Kang had just breathed a sigh of relief when another thunderous piece of news came:
Liu Yi actually led his troops to fight and join the Han army!
This news was like a bombshell, dealing a heavy blow to Gongsun Kang.

Liu Yi is his strategist.

Now she's betraying him?

Upon hearing the news, Gongsun Kang was furious and rushed to the south gate to try to intercept Liu Yi.

By the time he arrived, it was too late.

The South Gate was in a mess, with traces of fighting all over the ground.

In order to escape, Liu Yi sacrificed some of his soldiers and finally succeeded in getting rid of Gongsun Kang's pursuit.

What’s even more infuriating is that Liu Yi did not immediately surrender to the Han army.

He stood outside the city and loudly called on the Liaodong troops on the city to surrender to Han.

Gongsun Kang was so angry that he climbed up the city wall and pointed at Liu Yi and cursed:

"Liu Yi, you traitor, how dare you betray me, how dare you, how dare you~~"

Liu Yi responded loudly without any shame:
"Gongsun Kang, if you hadn't lost your mind, how could I betray you?"

"If you still want to live, then follow me and surrender to the Han Dynasty!"

Gongsun Kang was furious and ordered Liu Yi to be shot to death.

After hearing the order, the archers immediately shot arrows at Liu Yi.

Seeing this, Liu Yi did not dare to hesitate at all and fled desperately before the rain of arrows.

Looking at Liu Yi's gradually receding back, Gongsun Kang gritted his teeth, but could do nothing.

The atmosphere in the Han camp was solemn and dignified.

The tent curtain was slowly lifted, and Liu Yi was taken into the big tent.

He bowed his head to the ground and said respectfully:
"The criminal Liu Yi pays homage to Prime Minister Xiao."

Xiao Fang looked down at Liu Yi coldly without saying a word, his heart full of disdain for this guy who only knelt in front of him when he was at the end of his rope.

"Liu Yi, Xiangping City is about to fall, you are very good at choosing the right time to surrender!"

Xiao Fang said sarcastically.

Liu Yi smiled awkwardly and explained:

"Yi has long wanted to submit to the Han Dynasty, but he never had the chance.

Yi now saw an opportunity, so he risked his life to surrender to Xiao Xiang!"

"boom!"

Xiao Fang slammed the table, and the loud noise made Liu Yi tremble.

"Do you think I will believe you?"

Xiao Fang was filled with murderous intent, and his eyes revealed ferocity.

Liu Yi was panicked and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Xiao Fang was filled with murderous intent and waved his hand without hesitation:
"Drag Liu Yi out and have him torn to pieces!"

Liu Yi didn't expect Xiao Fang to actually kill him, and he shouted in horror:

"Prime Minister Xiao, please spare my life~~"

The imperial guards rushed forward and dragged Liu Yi out of the tent.

Following an order, five war horses rolled out, and with a loud "click", Liu Yi was torn to pieces by the horses. (End of this chapter)
