Chapter 263 Surrender

The main city of Liaodong, in front of the main gate of Changli City.

All of Yuan Jun's soldiers and horses were laid out horizontally and vertically, surrounded by a line under Changli City. Yuan Shang was sitting in the chariot in the center, staring at the distant city with shining eyes, thinking repeatedly in his mind, gently rubbing His chin was drooping, as if he was thinking about something.

As time went by, the gates of the city were opened little by little. Gongsun Du, dressed in plain pickaxe, holding the prefect's seal and ribbon, led a group of generals and officials in the city, and walked out on foot with low eyebrows. He raised his head and glanced at Yuan Jun's camp in the distance, then raised all kinds of objects in his hands above his head with a tray, and slowly walked towards Yuan Jun.

When I was young, I saw Gongsundu bowing his head and coming to Yuan Shang's horse, respectfully saluted Yuan Shang, and said: "The general who accepted the surrender, Gongsundu, didn't know the time of the sky, and stubbornly resisted the heavenly soldiers. Today he has awakened and led all the officials in the city to come. Surrender to Yuan Weiwei! I also hope that Yuan Weiwei has a heart of the whole world and a heart for all people, and can forgive us for our previous sin of stubbornness and disrespect! If not, then all the crimes are on the guilty general, and it has nothing to do with the soldiers in the city. Please Yuan Gonghaihan, if you can forgive a group of people, if you can, then you will die in peace and have no regrets in your heart."

Yuan Shang looked down at Gongsundu in front of the horse, but saw the old man's eye sockets sunken, his face full of vicissitudes, like willows in the wind, as if he could be blown away by the strong wind at any time.

The so-called candle in the wind probably refers to the current appearance, right?
People's hearts are full of flesh. Looking at the old man's appearance, Yuan Shang couldn't bear it, so he dismounted himself, raised his hand to help Gongsundu, patted him on the shoulder lightly, and said, "Old Gongsun The general said that he underestimated Yuan's mind. Now that the old general is willing to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, it is the great fortune of the world. Unfortunately, he died on the battlefield. It is really mournful. It is Yuan who is sorry for the eldest son and the old general Gongsun. I also hope that the old general will take the overall situation of the world and the peace of the north as the most important thing, and don't hold grudges against Yuan. "

Hearing this, Gongsun Du waved his hands hastily, bowed his head to Yuan Shangyi in trepidation, and said softly: "A rebellious son does not respect the destiny of heaven, and force disputes, it is the destiny of fate to die here, and no one can blame others. , is a fixed number, although the old man is unwilling, but he dare not go against the sky, Yuan Weiwei don't mention it any more."

Seeing how pitiful Gongsun Du said, Yuan Shang didn't want to say anything more, so he nodded and said, "I feel even more guilty about you. Old General Gongsun understands righteousness so well, so I still want you to be the governor of Liaodong County and lead the troops." Resist the enemy Dongyi."

There was no joy on Gongsun Du's face, he just nodded and sighed: "The old man is old and weak, and he is no longer able to continue to assume the post of the county guard. I just want to be able to hand over the military power, retire to the mountains, and spend the remaining days of my life. As long as the sky is over, I hope Duke Yuan can give me permission."

When Yuan Shang heard this, hesitation flashed slightly on his face, and he said in a low voice: "It's not good to do this... The old general is only in his prime, so can An Neng say that he is old?"

Gongsun Du shook his head, showing a determined expression and said: "This old man is nearly sixty years old, how can he not be old? Yuan Gongchen said this, could it be that he can't believe this old man... Anyway, today this old man has nothing but military power , and give Yuan Gong a gift to prove his loyalty."

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Du clapped his hands lightly, and saw two burly men walking out from behind the Liaodong Army, one on the left and the other on the right supported a young man who was tied up with ropes all over his body. His face was ashen and disfigured, like a defeated rooster, he looked extremely embarrassed.

Yuan Shang didn't understand why, pointing at the person who came, he whispered: "Who is this person?"

Gongsun Du's face was flat, and he saluted Yuan Shang respectfully, and said: "The person I bound today is Liu Heye. I was ordered to bind him here, and I specially handed him over to Yuan Gong."

Yuan Shang frowned immediately when he heard the words, and hurriedly said: "He is Liu He? The hypocrite Liu He who wants to call himself emperor?"

Gongsun Du took a deep look at Yuan Shang with complicated eyes, nodded and said: "Of course...Yuan Gong, the old man handed over Liu He today to show his loyalty. This person is the clan of the Han Dynasty, Liu Yu The son of his son, with a respected status, if Duke Ming controls him, if he can be used to promote him, he may not be able to become..."

Before Gongsun Du finished speaking, he saw Yuan Shang waved his hand and shouted at the soldiers behind him: "Come here, drag this boy who dreams of being an emperor to slaughter!"

"......It can't be said that it can become a powerful chess piece that can compete with Cao Cao in terms of political status..." Gongsun Du held back his tone, and reluctantly finished the following words with inarticulate speech.

When the words fell, he saw that the knife and ax hand had already stepped forward, raised his leg and kicked Liu He's bent knee, causing him to kneel on the ground, then spit on his hand, raised the knife, and covered him with a knife. His head was about to be chopped off.

This action made Gongsun Du and Liu He dumbfounded immediately. They didn't expect Yuan Shang to act so vigorously. He caught a Han family clan member and cut him with a knife without even asking. Pass.

"And... slow down!" Gongsundu roared, hurriedly walked in front of the knife and axe, stopped him tremblingly, and said to Yuan Shang: "Yuan Weiwei, you just heard what the old man told you Already?"

Yuan Shang raised his eyebrows, and said puzzledly: "Don't blame the old general. When I saw this fake emperor, I was filled with righteous indignation for a while. I just wanted to kill him, but I really didn't listen to what you said carefully... Dear generals, you Look at this bastard, besides his surname Liu, how does he look like an emperor? I am not as majestic as Yuan, and I want to dream of becoming an emperor with this honor? It's ridiculous!"

Gongsun Du smiled awkwardly, and then whispered to Yuan Shang: "Mr. Yuan, we don't care whether Liu He looks like the emperor or not, but he is a clan member of the Han Dynasty after all, and his status in the Han Dynasty is not low. , the status is special, with this person in hand, it will not have a huge impact on Yuan Gong's political stance in the future, if Yuan Gong is planning for the future, he still has no choice but to kill him."

It's a joke, this person is an ally of the old man, and I will keep it together in the future to deal with you, a bastard surnamed Yuan, how can I let you kill him now.

Liu He's face was also pale. He thought that Yuan Shang would be concerned about his position and special status and could not do anything to him. He never thought that this kid would kill him as soon as he said it... As expected, he was very human!
Yuan Shang rubbed his chin and asked: "The clan of the Han Dynasty... I don't want to support the emperor like Cao Cao, what's the use of keeping him? Besides, it's no big deal to kill a clan of the Han Dynasty Yes, when I want it in the future, I will go to find it again, and I won’t be short of him.”

Gongsun Du and Liu He almost vomited blood when they heard the words, killing the clan of the Han family?Not bad for this one and a half?Listen, what kind of bastard is this?

Gongsun Du coughed lightly, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Yuan, don't underestimate the identity of the clan of the Han clan. Nowadays, it is very difficult for a clan clan of the Han clan with such a good status and status as Liu He." I found it, kill one less one."

"Old General Gongsun means that this Han family clan is not a hybrid... is it a purebred?"

Following Yuan Shang's words, Liu He's complexion instantly became extremely ugly.

"Yes...it's a purebred!" Gongsun Du had no choice but to follow Yuan Shang's words.

Yuan Shang thought about it, then waved his hand, and said: "Forget it, I will keep this purebred for the sake of the old general Gongsun today... and imprison him in the prison in the city for the time being. I'm trying to figure out his usefulness."

Gongsun Du couldn't help being a little dazed when he heard the words, he obviously gave Yuan Shang a generous gift, how did he turn out to be giving himself face in the end?Isn't this guy's thinking a little too jumpy?
Gongsun Du was angry in his heart, but still kept calm on his face, and said with a smile: "The old man has arranged a banquet in the city, Mr. Yuan, please come into the city!"

*****************
The soldiers captured Changli city without bloodshed, regained the land of Liaodong, and gained the command of Liaodong soldiers and horses. Yuan Shang was in a good mood, but he drank a few more cups during the huhuhaha. After drinking, he was supported by a group of guards Next, he cheerfully walked towards the temporary residence in the city.

Because of his drunkenness, Yuan Shang didn't ride a horse and drive a cart, but ordered his soldiers and horses to follow behind him. He walked on foot, strolling in front of him with his hands behind his back to sober up, keeping a certain distance.

At that time, the night was already dark, and there was no one on the street. Yuan Shang was alone in front of the guards, strolling around very comfortably, plus he was in a good mood, and unconsciously hummed a little tune, looking very happy Zai's expression can be described as leisurely and complacent.

After turning a corner, I was about to reach the resting place of the posthouse, when I heard a corner of the street, I suddenly let out a faint sigh.

"Fate is already hanging on the edge of the sharp knife, and you are still leisurely, humming and out of tune. If this continues, hey, sooner or later you will die."

The voice was not too loud or too soft, but it happened to reach Yuan Shang's ears.

But seeing Yuan Shang frowned, he turned his head to look at the place where the voice sounded, and said, "Who? Who? Which bastard cursed me over there?"

As far as he could see, he could see an elder in his [-]s, leaning on a cane, shaking his head at Yuan Shang with regret, his eyes full of regret, as if he was watching Yuan Shang. Like a dead person, Yuan Shang was very uncomfortable.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Yuan Shang asked, frowning.

The person who came did not answer, but said indifferently: "Before asking me, I would like to ask the general, who are you and what are you doing in this land of Liaodong."

Yuan Shangdao: "I am Yuan Shang, the Weiwei of the dynasty, and I have come here to recover the land of Liaodong, to restore the land for the country, and to appease the people!"

The person who came nodded and said slowly: "I have no official or title, I am a mere outlaw, I am here for nothing else, just to save your life, Yuan Weiwei."
