The Yuan Family of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 154 Disposal

Fifty thousand soldiers and horses took advantage of the night to take down Linzi City, the capital of Qingzhou, overnight by using the lightning warfare method of rushing thousands of miles.

Although Yuan Shang had made an arrangement to scold Yuan Tan for being unfilial and make him lose the heart of a scholar in Hebei, but in the absence of Yuan Tan's rebellion, Yuan Shang sent troops to attack his brother, and his statement is bound to be met in Hebei. He fell sharply, and was poked at the spine and said that he was a villain who murdered his brother.

But even so, Yuan Shang did not regret it.

Being able to use such a simple and quick battle to get rid of Yuan Tan, a potential disaster in Hebei, is a great blessing to both the Baixin residents in Hebei and the children of the Yuan family.

It doesn't matter if he is scolded or criticized by others, as long as Hebei is stable and his vitality is not hurt, Yuan Shang doesn't mind letting the idle people take his word for it.

Since ancient times, no one has died in life, and he will not be scolded to death anyway.

Scolding is healthier.

What's more, Cao Cao appointed Yuan Tan as the shepherd of Jizhou, and wanted to use Yuan Tan as a nail to harm Yuan Shang. The so-called courtesy and reciprocity, Yuan Shang was about to pull out this nail to disgust Cao Cao.

The Jizhou Shepherd conferred by the imperial court is gone, can you confer another one if you have the ability?Seal a few and I'll give you a few!
Using mental calculations and unintentional calculations, and using elite soldiers to attack the sleeping defenseless people, after only one night, Linzi City has been acquired by Yuan Shang.

The enemy was brave, the commander was captured, and together with the family of the four prefectures in Hebei, the soldiers in Linzi City woke up from their sleep and knew that resistance was useless. They immediately surrendered their weapons and expressed their willingness to surrender.

After all, Yuan Shang is the legitimate Lord of Hebei. Although he does not have the title of Jizhou Mu, he also holds the title of Zhongzheng. Surrendering to him is not an act of treason.

The scorching sun in the morning slowly rose from the east, and Linzi City, which had gone through a night of fighting, was bathed in the sun, as if it had just been baptized, and it looked glorious and dazzling.

Yuan Shang was seated at the chief seat of the Governor's Mansion in Qingzhou, looking at the bound Yuan Tan below, he couldn't help but heaved a long sigh.

The brothers have finally come to this point, is it fate, God's will, or human heart?

Yuan Shang admitted that the two brothers had been fighting until today. Although Yuan Tan planned to deal with him at the beginning, there are many of them without his own fault.

If I can be more tolerant, more patient, more patient, I can influence Yuan Tan's perseverance more.

Perhaps the two brothers today will face each other in a different situation.

It's a pity that Yuan Shang is only a powerful mortal after all, not a saint, and he can't tolerate Yuan Tan too much.

The world is like chess, what is absolutely right and what is absolutely wrong in the world?

Seeing Yuan Tan with a gloomy and venomous expression, Yuan Shang couldn't help but sighed a long time, shook his head and smiled wryly.

"Greed ruins one's life, and ambition is poor for three generations. If the two are not in harmony, one will become rich and handsome. Brother, you are on the wrong track."

Hearing this, Yuan Tan's eyes suddenly burst into fierce light, he got up and shouted at Yuan Shang: "Yuan Xianfu! You despicable and shameless villain, you can kill as you want, scratch as you want, don't use your tongue to suppress others, I It is fate that Yuan Tan fell into your trap today, but I swear to the death that I will not be insulted by you, a liar!"

Yuan Shang looked deeply at Yuan Tan's rebellious face, and his mind slowly became deep.

"Brother, no matter what grievances and grievances there are between us, I will not kill you. After all, I am a brother of the same father. If I really kill you, won't it make my father under the nine springs die? I will send you to Yecheng , from today onwards, Qingzhou's political and military affairs have nothing to do with you, so you can rest assured and take care of yourself."

Yuan Tan sneered, and said, "Yuan Xianfu, don't try to trick me like this. I don't want to do that! If you don't kill me today, one day, I will let you know about my Yuan Tan. sharp."

Yuan Shang didn't bother to argue with Yuan Tan, he just waved his hand and said: "Take him down, and send him to Ye City for resettlement with his family members in the mansion. There is no shortage of food and clothing. Let my eldest brother be a rich man."

"promise!"

Yuan Tan was naked, and was dragged out of the hall by a group of guards pushing and shouting. While being pulled, he still heard him shout angrily: "Yuan Shang! If you don't kill me today, I will definitely let you die in the future." You regret it! I want to let you know, between you and me, who is truly worthy to be the Lord of the Yuan Clan! Who is the real hero of the four states, you wait, hahahaha~~~"

Seeing Yuan Tan being slowly dragged down by the guards, Yuan Shang couldn't help shaking his head slightly, and sighed: "Crazy, this is really crazy."

Ju Shou, who came with the army, had already stepped forward, cupped his hands at Yuan Shang and said, "My lord, although it is good for your reputation not to kill Yuan Tan, this person is at odds with you after all. Old grudges are hard to resolve, even if you live under the watchful eye of our army, I am afraid that some disasters will still be caused in the future, it is better to plan early."

Ju Shou's words were tactful, but his meaning was very clear. Since the brothers have turned against each other, why not cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and instead keep this disaster by your side. Even if you watch it under your nose, you may still make mistakes in the future. It's better to kill!

But Yuan Shang shook his head lightly and said: "I know my elder brother is not an honest master, and he can be suffocated to death if he doesn't touch his teeth for three days, but I can't just kill my father shortly after his death. Brother, otherwise, after waiting for me for a hundred years, what face will I have to meet my father? Besides, I spare my elder brother's life, but it is also for the purpose of making a long-term plan for the future."

"Make a long-term plan for the future?"

Ju Shou was taken aback when he heard the words, and said, "What does my lord mean by this, please forgive Ju for not being very clear."

Yuan Shang shook his head lightly, made a mysterious gesture, and said in a low voice: "This matter, when the time comes, I will naturally tell my husband clearly, it's just an immature idea now, I can't disclose it to others, I hope you will get it right now." Don't worry about it, sir."

While the two were talking, they saw Wang Shuang pressing Wang Zhao and opening his jaws pressing Hua Yan. Before they came to the main hall, they asked Yuan Shang for credit.

Hua Yan and Wang Zhao, one civil and one military, are the chief counselors and generals of Qingzhou. They are of great status, and they are also Yuan Tan's confidantes. They know Qingzhou's military and political affairs well. The states and counties benefit greatly.

Seeing the two of them, Yuan Shang couldn't help showing a leisurely smile.

Hua Yan followed Yuan Tan back then and helped him conspire to assassinate Yuan Shang, but in the end Yuan Shang deciphered it. Yuan Tan plotted and forced Yuan Tan to kill his confidant Kong Shun in one fell swoop, and suffered a big dumb loss, so he was deeply jealous of Yuan Shang himself. , Seeing this son suddenly again today, a feeling of fear suddenly surged into Hua Yan's heart.

"Mr. Hua, General Wang!"

Yuan Shang revealed a look of surprise, and went up to untie the two in person, and said with a smile: "Since the last time we parted in Linzi City, I have remembered the demeanor of the two of you, thinking hard and meditating every day, so far I can't forget it. I hope to meet again by fate, now the sky has not failed me, and today I finally let me see you again!"

Wang Zhao stood up slowly, and looked at Yuan Shang in surprise, as if he didn't understand why.

On the contrary, Hua Yan was sweating profusely, cupping his hands at Yuan Shang, and said with a wry smile: "Young Master, you are polite, be polite! Hua Yan is a man of no plans and no morals, how dare he be so concerned about the third son."

Yuan Shang patted Hua Yan on the shoulder, and said: "Take it! I can afford it! The two gentlemen are in Qingzhou, with one article and one military, and they complement each other to assist my elder brother to achieve the foundation of Qingzhou. It has made Yuan Shang think about it for a long time. I have invited you to live in Yecheng, Yuan Shang is not talented, I hope that the two of you will advance bravely and join hands with Yuan to rule the four states of Hebei together and create peace in the world~! I wonder if the two of you are interested?"

"This..." Seeing Yuan Shang, the two wanted to persuade them to surrender, and they immediately started to rattle in their hearts.

In all honesty, although Wang Zhao and Hua Yan are Yuan Tan's thighs, since the Kong Shun incident, they have seen Yuan Tan's frivolity and ungratefulness, and they know that this master's nature is too cold, which is really chilling.

Now that Yuan Tan was settled by Yuan Shang in the first battle, the two brothers will decide who is superior and who is inferior, not to mention that Yuan Shang is still the lord of Hebei, commanding the four states, following him must have a better future than following Yuan Tan.

The two are not fools, how can they not be tempted by Yuan Shang's frank solicitation?

After Kong Shun was cheated to death, Hua Yan knew Yuan Shang's temperament and ability well. Now that Yuan Shang was willing to surrender to him, he was naturally overjoyed, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "How can Hua Yan be able to take on the role of the lord? Enyi, from now on, this little life belongs to the lord, so don't you dare to do your best for the lord!"

Yuan Shang nodded to express his appreciation for Hua Yan, then turned to ask Wang Zhao, "General Wang, how about you?"

Wang Zhao didn't have a deep impression of Yuan Shang, and he was still at the stage of the third son before the battle of Guandu. He thought that I, Wang Zhao, was the number one general in Qingzhou. , you may not be able to think highly of me in the future, you have to decline.

Thinking of this, Wang Zhao showed pain on his face, clasped his fists and said: "Returning to the third son, I have followed the eldest son for many years, and I have always received the eldest son's kindness, and I can't repay him. Today I missed and was captured. The only way to repay the elder is to die." Young Master Ende, how can he betray and turn to the enemy? I can only ignore the kindness of the third son, and I hope the third son will forgive me!"

After all, weeping bitterly, although it seems to be true, it makes people feel moved, and also moved by his loyalty to the old master.

Behind Wang Zhao, Wang Shuangchang, who had captured him alive, sighed, and murmured: "Ah! Unexpectedly, you are mediocre in martial arts and poor in ability, but you are still a famous hero. Such a loyal man is really admirable! Admirable! "

Yuan Shang also heaved a long sigh, shook his head and said, "General Wang is truly a loyal man! You are admirable! Yuan Mou really respects you from the bottom of his heart!"

When Wang Zhao heard this, he couldn't help but feel complacent.

This person, it's better to have a bit of backbone, in this way, in the future, he will definitely gain the favor of the third son!
It's a pity that Wang Zhao was a little early to be happy.

Yuan Shang nodded with emotion, and suddenly changed the subject, saying: "General Wang is so loyal, it is really rare in the world, and Yuan admires it very much! Well, today I will use the infamy of killing loyalty to fulfill the general Your blood will last forever. Someone, drag General Wang down, and die!"

"What?" Wang Zhao was stunned when he heard the words: "My lord, you, you really want to kill me?"

Yuan Shangchang sighed, and said with a sad face: "I am also reluctant to kill a loyal person like you, but your loyalty to my elder brother can be learned from the sun and the moon, which makes people cry. It is really touching! Yuan Moulian wants to continue I don’t have the courage to persuade you to surrender. Today, I have no choice but to sever my wrists! General Wang, your wish is about to come true. Are you happy?”

Wang Zhaowen said anxiously: "No, no, the third son. If you don't try, how can you know about the things in this world? You, you might as well continue to persuade me to surrender for a while, maybe with good luck, I... I agreed right away Maybe."

Yuan Shang seemed not to have heard it, and cupped his hands and said: "No one in life has died since ancient times. Keep your loyal heart to reflect the history. General Wang, go all the way! Your wife and concubines, I will send someone to persuade them to remarry, and they will Live happily ever after, I promise!"

Wang Zhao was sweating profusely when he heard the words: "No, it's not me. I don't mean that."

"Come here, drag General Wang down and kill him! Alas, a loyal man, I can't bear it."

When the words fell, I saw that two swordsmen had already stepped forward to grab Wang Zhao. Suddenly, Wang Zhao's legs softened, and he knelt down to Yuan Shang with a thump, and cried "Wow", "Third son, I said Wrong words! Actually, I want to surrender! I surrender!"

Yuan Shang pursed his lips in a "tsk tsk", turned his head and said to the generals: "Look at it! General Wang is so humorous, such a loyal person would still beg for mercy? Before leaving, you still don't forget to entertain the public, General Wang, yours!" Yuan Mou accepted the cold joke, and on this day of the coming year, I will procrastinate you with a stick of fragrance! Procrastinate!"

"Third Young Master, don't! I was just kidding with you! Don't! Don't kill me! What a joke!"
