Chapter 688 Yuan Shu's Death
As a result, Zhang Xiu really made such an unexpected move. Isn’t this equivalent to slapping Yuan Shao in the face? Yuan Shao was originally a very face-loving person, especially now he has defeated Gongsun Zan, unified the four northern states, and became the largest prince in the world. How could Yuan Shao tolerate such a person who does not give him face to survive in the world!
Also, one of the reasons why Yuan Shao decided to start a war with Cao cāo immediately was that Yuan Shao was worried that Cao cāo would continue to expand. Now, Zhang Xiu joined Cao cāo's camp, which not only eliminated Cao cāo's future trouble, but also allowed Cao cāo to concentrate more on the decisive battle with him Yuan Shao, but also increased Cao cāo's strength to a certain extent. Cao cāo is equivalent to picking up two advantages at once!
Yuan Shao did not expect that his worries at that time would come true so soon. So Yuan Shao couldn't wait any longer and started the war immediately! Even if he was not ready and even if the army had not been arranged in place, he would fight a few small headquarters first. At this time, Yuan Shao wanted to make Cao cāo tense his nerves and concentrate all his attention on him, and he could no longer think of other bad ideas.
The war was about to break out, and the two armies that were already on the front line finally sparked sparks.
Seeing this, Cao cāo did not dare to delay, so he hurriedly took Guo Jia and others, left Xu Du, and went to the front line to take charge. Speaking of which, Guo Jia was a little nervous at this time. Damn, Liu Bei had not rebelled yet, so this was really a fight? What should I do when Liu Bei rebelled? Could it be that Cao cāo really have the opportunity to destroy Liu Bei first? Yuan Shao was too calm or overslept? Even if you, Yuan Shao, have to take care of your youngest son and can't leave, you can still find someone else to attack, and there is no need to "master the imperial army to fight in person". Even if you, Yuan Shao, can't trust others, you won't fight all these years.
Could it be that this history has finally begun to develop in an unpredictable direction?
But soon, Cao cāo and Guo Jia knew what was going on. This was a false alarm. Because the two of them nervously went to the front line for a long time to prepare, they received information that Yuan Shao had been staying in Yecheng for a long time and had never come out. Even if Yuan Shao is strong now, even if Yuan Shao looks down on Cao cāo, if he really wants to fight, he will never be able to sit in the base camp easily and send someone to win Cao cāo.
In other words, Yuan Shao was just a matter of scaring Cao cāo. He occasionally shot two shots from time to time to make people know that he still exists. Don’t ignore him! Yuan Shao has not yet officially launched a decisive battle.
Since then, after more than a month, Cao cāo saw that Yuan Shao still had no big noise and was too lazy to waste time with Yuan Shao. I guess even now, Cao cāo had no idea how many times he had been secretly laughed at by Yuan Shao. However, Cao cāo endured it and said nothing, and went back to Xudu.
Is Yuan Shao a story about playing with a wolf? He scared Cao like this several times. When Cao was exhausted, his army was exhausted, his morale was slackened, and he gradually stopped taking that seriously, and then he suddenly attacked with all his strength, and attacked Huanglong with one blow. This is a good plan, but he didn't know who would be a wolf in the future and who would be eaten!
You, Yuan Shao, are playing with others mentally, spiritually, the first thing you slack off is not your opponent, but you yourself! Maybe one time, when you rushed out and shouted "The wolf is coming", Cao cāo suddenly attacked and destroyed you!
Being firm is never the best defense, don’t think that the weak will not bite people!
As a result, not long after Cao cāo returned to Xu, and before Yuan Shao could shout "The Wolf is Coming" for the second time, something happened in Xuzhou.
It turned out that since Yuan Shu became emperor, he was too extravagant, and his own strength was not enough to provide him with luxury. Seeing this, most of his subordinates were disinterested. Yuan Shu was gradually declining, and he knew that it was not a solution to last. Although Cao cāo didn't care about him for the time being, Sun Ce from the south was forced to do so. So Yuan Shu decided to give the emperor to his brother Yuan Shao, hoping to take advantage of the opportunity of Cao cāo and Yuan Shao's confrontation and pass by Xuzhou.
Unfortunately, Cao cāo made up his mind not to let Yuan Shu meet with Yuan Shao, so he sent Liu Bei to intercept Yuan Shu. Liu Bei arrived in Xuzhou first and sent someone to inquire about the news. Knowing that Yuan Shu was approaching, he led Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhu Ling, and Lu Zhao to 50,000 troops, facing Yuan Shao's pioneer Ji Ling. Zhang Fei did not say anything, but took Ji Ling directly. After fighting for no ten rounds, Zhang Fei shouted loudly and stabbed Ji Ling on the horse. Yuan Shu lost his army and ran away.
Then, Yuan Shu led his army to fight. Liu Bei divided his troops into three groups: Zhu Ling, Lu Zhao was on the left, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei was on the right, and Liu Bei led his troops to the center. From here, Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao's actual military power had obviously been lost. At least two-thirds were lost, and the troops were divided into three groups. Will Liu Bei return the military power after the division of the troops?
Liu Bei met Yuan Shu, and Liu Bei scolded Yuan Shu for being ruthless. Yuan Shu despised Liu Bei for being a straw sandal. The two of them had a disagreement and started fighting directly. Then Liu Bei cheated and Yuan Shu pursued him, but was double-teamed by the left and right armies, killing the Shu army's corpses were everywhere and blood was flowing; the soldiers fled, and they were invincible.
At this time, Yuan Shu's subordinates who were already indifferent, finally had a strange intention. Lei Bo and Chen Lan robbed Yuan Shu's money, grain, and fodder, and ran to Songshan to become bandits. Yuan Shu suddenly fell into a dilemma of no money and food, and the future was blocked by Liu Bei. He could not beat him before, so how could he rush over now?
So Yuan Shu was preparing to go home and go back to revitalize morale first. As a result, the tiger fell into the Pingyang and was bullied by dogs. On the way, Yuan Shu was robbed by a group of thieves, and finally he had to stop in Jiangting. At this moment, there were only more than a thousand people around Yuan Shu, and all of them were old and weak. When the summer heat was in full swing, the food was gone, and only thirty hu of wheat was left, and soldiers were assigned. The family had no food, so most of them starved to death.
It can be said that Yuan Shu at this time was even worse than Xian** who escaped from Chang'an!
On this day, Yuan Shu thought the rice was thick and could not swallow it, so he ordered the chef to take honey water to quench his thirst. The chef said, "If there is only blood, how can there be honey water!" Yuan Shu's face was gray and sat on the bed. It was really hard to accept why he had fallen to this point. Finally, he screamed and fell to the ground, vomiting blood and dying.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, the swords and weapons rose from all directions, and Yuan Shu was too arrogant and did not want to be the prime minister for many lifetimes, so he became an emperor alone.
He raped and praised the imperial seal in vain, and said arrogantly that Ying Tianxiang was arrogant and misunderstood. He had no way to get honey water, so he lie alone in an empty bed and vomited blood and died of death.
As the first person to eat crabs, the "pseudo-Emperor" Yuan Shu showed the world with his own personal experience that crabs are poisonous and cannot be eaten!
The imperial seal in Yuan Shu's hand was tossed and turned, and was eventually obtained by Xu Yu. Xu Yu did not dare to secretly hide the seal and offered it to the court. Therefore, the imperial seal finally returned to the Han Dynasty. Of course, it can also be said that it has been obtained by Cao Cāo now.
Just when Yuan Shu died and the intercepting army was supposed to return, only Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao came back in the end. Well, it would be fine if Liu Bei didn't come back, but what about the soldiers? You can even lose the tens of thousands of troops? To be continued.)
