Chapter 397 Surrendering Xiaoyuan Camp

Xiaoyuanying has 3000 troops in Wuguan, but they are not elite.

In the past four years, Xiaoyuanying is still the same as Xiaoyuanying back then. It has not made much progress, but has retreated sharply.

Gao Yihuan's Wei Wu army has grown from a few dozen people at the beginning to a hundred thousand, and the combat power of each soldier has become stronger and stronger as time goes by.

Under such ebb and flow, once Wei Wu's army flooded into Guancheng, Xiao Yuanying was like a chicken and a dog, and was defeated by Wei Wu's army in a short time.

In less than half an hour, Wuguan, an important pass leading to the central pass, fell into the hands of the mighty army.

At this time, Gao Yihuan was riding on the black horse, and surrounded by a group of generals, he entered Guancheng with a clatter of horseshoes.

Hu Dawei, Wang Chang, Fang Jiayu and others stepped forward to greet him. Hu Dawei clasped his fists and laughed loudly: "Commander, fortunately, the last general did not disgrace his life. He captured Wuguan and captured the guard Yuan Shouxi!"

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the two soldiers pushed out an armored general who was tied behind his back, and pressed him to his knees on the ground.

Gao Yihuan sat on the black steed, looked down at Yuan Shouxi, and said majesticly: "You are Yuan Shouxi, who is Yuan Shizhong?"

Yuan Shouxi became a prisoner inexplicably, and when he learned that the soldiers who seized the pass belonged to Gao Yihuan, he was frightened out of his wits.

"Master Hui Gao, Yuan Zhenshou is the elder brother of the villain." Yuan Shouxi's forehead was sweating.

Gao Yihuan frowned, waved his hands to let the soldiers untie Yuan Shouxi, and then cut straight to the point: "I don't need to kill you, but let you go back to Danfeng. Help me pass the news to Yuan Shizhong. Xiao Yuanying has been under Li Zicheng for so many years. He has been suppressed, you can ask him whether he will continue to perish with Li Zicheng, or return to the commander in chief! We are also considered neighbors, and I, Wei Wujun, want money and food, and you must have heard of it. If you persuade Yuan Shizhong to surrender, This commander will definitely reward you!"

Without waiting for Yuan Shouxi to agree, Gao Yihuan waved his hand and said, "Go, give General Yuan a horse and let him go."

When it was dark, the city of Danfeng County was already pitch black, and everything was silent. All the lights of every household had been turned off, and they slowly fell asleep.

At this time, on the official road outside the county seat, a rush of horseshoes suddenly sounded.

A man riding a horse, followed by many soldiers, rushed towards the city, then suddenly reined in the horse, and shouted towards the top of the city: "Quickly open the city gate, I want to see the commander, there is an urgent military report."

The man on the horse was Yuan Shouxi, and the people behind him were the routs he met on the road, but only a dozen or so people followed, and most of the routs were left behind.

The dozing defenders on the city heard the movement below. A general raised his head from the city to look, and was startled, "It's the third master, open the city gate!"

The gate of the county seat opened slowly, and Yuan Shouxi rushed into the city at a gallop without waiting for the gate to be fully opened, heading for the guard's mansion.

Suddenly, on the streets of the city, there was a clatter of horseshoes, which startled the residents of the city to wake up.

Yuan Shouxi rushed to the town guard's mansion in one breath, got off his horse, climbed up the steps, and knocked on the door vigorously, "Hurry up, I want to see the commander in chief!"

Although Yuan Shizhong used to be a figure, a big bandit second only to Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai, but now he is getting more and more confused, and he is not as good as Guide Liu Heizi. He only has three counties and two counties in his hands, nestled in a corner of Shangzhou , and have to worry about being wiped out at any time.

Originally, the place Yuan Shizhong occupied was poor and remote, but recently a large number of caravans passed by his site, which gave Yuan Shizhong, who had lived a hard life for several years, a little bit of money and food, and his life began to improve, and his mood became more comfortable.

This day, he drank some wine and went to bed early. While he was sleeping soundly, his wife next to him woke him up, "Young man, handsome~"

Yuan Shizhong woke up and opened his eyes. Because he drank some wine, his eyes were a little red, "What's the matter?"

"It seems that my uncle came back and said that there is an urgent military report!"

When Yuan Shizhong heard about the emergency military situation, he suddenly woke up.

At this time, he listened carefully, and sure enough, he heard someone knocking on the door outside, "Master~Master~"

Gui grandson actually knocked on the door of sister-in-law's room!

Yuan Shizhong sat up hastily, his wife put a cotton robe on him, Yuan Shizhong put on his shoes and got out of bed, then walked out quickly.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Yuan Shouxi standing outside the door with an anxious expression on his face, and immediately frowned and said, "You're not in Wuguan, did you come back in the middle of the night to call your soul?"

"Marshal, it's bad! Wuguan is lost, and Shangnan is also lost!" Yuan Shouxi panted.

"What?" Yuan Shizhong's padded robe slipped off his shoulders and fell to the ground. His whole body was like a thunderbolt, his head was blank, and his body was shaking.

Yuan Shouxi next to him had a sick hand, and he supported Yuan Shizhong, "Marshal, hold on!"

Yuan Shizhong was in a trance for a while, and suddenly became furious for a while, and grabbed Yuan Shouxi instead, "Say, what's going on?"

"Marshal, Gao Yihuan invaded Guanzhong in a big way, and I couldn't stand it! They took tens of thousands of people and captured Shangnan and Wuguan in one day. I also fought hard and was captured. It was Gao Yihuan who released me, otherwise I would not see you again." It's time for the commander!" Yuan Shouxi hastily explained.

"Where is Gao Yihuan calling in?" Yuan Shizhong let go of Yuan Shouxi's lapel, his heart full of shock.

Gao Yihuan fought the Qing army and conquered Huguang, which was awesome.

Yuan Shizhong was close to Nanyang, so he naturally knew about Gao Yihuan's deeds.

All along, Yuan Shizhong was worried that Li Zicheng would kill him, but he didn't expect Gao Yihuan to come too.

Seeing Yuan Shizhong's expression, Yuan Shouxi's Adam's apple twitched, "Commander, Gao Yihuan let me come back because he wanted to recruit the commander, and I hope the commander will take the initiative to surrender."

"Ask me to surrender him?" Yuan Shi was in a bad mood.After all, he is also number one. Although Gao Yihuan has risen rapidly, in terms of fame, he is still a bit behind Li Zicheng.

Yuan Shouxi was a little moved. It wasn't that Gao Yihuan did him any favors, but that they followed Li Zicheng, and they couldn't stand out at all.

That being the case, why not change employers?
"Marshal, we have been with Li Zicheng for many years, and we have not gained anything until now, and we will never get anything from Li Zicheng in the future." Yuan Shouxi said: "Gao Yihuan has food before him, and his army is strong. We can't fight again, so why don't we take refuge in him?" He, the result is bad, can he be worse than Li Zicheng now?"

"Have you already taken refuge with Gao Yihuan?" Yuan Shizhong suddenly stared with anger.

Yuan Shouxi's face changed, and he waved his hands to explain, "How could I betray my brother?"

While the two were talking, a general ran into the yard, saw Yuan Shizhong standing outside the house, running over in three steps and two steps, and said in panic: "Marshal, the emperor led tens of thousands of horses and drove into the courtyard." Shangzhou, the overwhelming army is coming!"

"What?" The robe Yuan Shizhong had just put on fell to the ground again, and his whole body shook again.

"Master, hold on tight!"
