Can I get to the other side?
Chapter 162 Since ancient times, it has been difficult to be both loyal and filial. For the sake of
"The situation is unclear at the moment. My lord, please flee Yecheng as quickly as possible. All you need to do is meet up with General Yan Liang and everything can be easily solved."
Shen Pei disagreed with Ju Shou's suggestion.
Rather than letting Yuan Shao go out to preside over the so-called overall situation, it is better to get out first.
As long as the army is in hand, all the monsters and monsters in the city will be vulnerable to a single blow.
When the two were arguing, Yuan Shao put his clothes neatly on and said with a cold look: "Where is that treacherous son of Yuan Xi now?"
There was deeply suppressed anger in his tone. After being imprisoned until now, the anger in his heart had already reached its peak. Now that he was finally out of trouble, how could he be willing to escape?
In other words...why did he run away!
He is Yuan Shao, he is the general, and he is the lord of Jizhou!
His pride did not allow him to escape from his base camp, which was an unacceptable shame.
The reason why Yuan Xi gained power was simply because he was cut off from communication with the outside world;
Now four thousand city defense troops have come to kill them, and Yuan Xi only has five hundred private troops under his command. Why does he need to escape!
He is the real master of Ye City!
Shen Pei sighed inwardly. The recent rumors about Yuan Xi's righteous annihilation of relatives made him vaguely feel that there was a conspiracy hidden in it. However, he was also under house arrest and was not allowed to go out. There were not many sources of information, and he could not dig deeper at the moment.
Seeing that Yuan Shao was unwilling to leave the city, he felt helpless and didn't know where to give advice.
Tian Feng on the side said: "My lord, the second young master entered the palace not long ago and asked for an official position from the emperor, but he is not in the palace now."
"Stupid!" Yuan Shao snorted, asking his puppet for an official position, how stupid and absurd it was!
Picking up a sword, Yuan Shao stood up and walked outside the house, "Follow me to the outside of the house. Today I will take back everything I lost! Let that traitor see who is the king of Jizhou!"
Jushou quickly followed with weapons in hand.
At this time, outside the General's Mansion, the soldiers of the Tiger Camp were fighting fiercely with the city defense army. Although they were assisted by the Ximen defenders, they were still gradually showing signs of fatigue despite the double number of people.
More than half of the 500 Tiger Battalion had been destroyed so far. The 1,000 Ximen defenders had an advantage at the beginning of the sneak attack, but they quickly fell into a disadvantage later on and could only wear out their defenses.
The equipment of both sides is the same, the strength of the soldiers is about the same, and there are not many strong generals in the field. Quantity is the key to determining the outcome of the battle.
Of the thousand men and horses, nearly two hundred were lost.
However, in their desperate fight, the city defense forces also suffered some casualties, but overall they still had an absolute advantage.
Just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, Yuan Shao walked out of the general's mansion under the protection of Jushu and three others. When he saw what was happening outside the mansion, he could no longer restrain his anger and roared with all his strength: "Stop it, my general!"
This roar immediately aroused the thoughts of both warring parties.
Seeing Yuan Shao, the guard at the south gate looked surprised and shouted excitedly: "General, it's the general! The general is out!"
The soldiers who were fighting stopped one after another and looked at the gate of the General's Mansion.
"It's all over!"
The moment they saw Yuan Shao, the faces of General Ximen and the deputy general of Huziying turned pale, and a sense of despair suddenly filled their hearts.
If Yuan Shao does not show up, as long as Yuan Xi can come back in time, it is still possible to stabilize the situation;
But once Yuan Shao shows up, their lies can no longer be maintained.
They will completely become rebellious thieves!
Yuan Shao looked gloomy as he walked down the steps step by step. The soldiers along the way, whether they were from the Tiger Camp or the city defense army, all stepped back and got out of the way.
This is the prestige and oppression brought by Yuan Shao as a general and the lord of Jizhou.
Without Yuan Xi giving orders, they would not dare to take action against Yuan Shao.
The guards at the South Gate and the North Gate rushed to Yuan Shao's side, clasping their fists excitedly and saying, "I have never known until now that I was deceived by the Second Young Master and made the General suffer!"
Yuan Shao nodded slightly and commended them. Then he turned his attention to the soldiers of the Tiger Camp and the Ximen defenders who turned against them.
"That traitor is really capable! If you dare to disobey the traitor, do you think that this general is dead or does not exist anymore?"
One sentence made many rebels tremble all over, and some people couldn't help but feel weak in their legs.
Just when the deputy general of Tiger Camp and the general of Ximen decided to surrender and beg for mercy, the ground under their feet suddenly trembled slightly, accompanied by the sound of dense footsteps and the sound of armor clashing.
"What's going on?"
Yuan Shao frowned, looked up and looked in the direction of the sound, and then there was incredible shock in his eyes!
At the end of the road, Yuan Xi was riding his horse.
Behind him, followed thousands of well-equipped soldiers with astonishing momentum - the elite soldiers under Han Fu who were now guarding the palace!
"Uu——!"
Yuan Xi halted his horse, and the guards behind him also stopped.
He glanced at the many soldiers in the field, and finally landed on Yuan Shao, with a sad look on his face.
Before Yuan Shao could speak, he burst into tears and said, "Father, you held the emperor hostage and caused rebellion. I imprisoned you in my house to protect your life. Why are you still stubborn?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present felt their heads buzzing.
Everyone was shocked by Yuan Xi's words, and they all looked at Yuan Shao with strange eyes.
The general actually held the emperor hostage?
Yuan Xi's sudden incident, is it really a matter of justice to destroy relatives?
"This traitor! How dare he do this!"
Yuan Shao has such a good character. Just by hearing this sentence, he understood what Yuan Xi was planning. He actually wanted to make him a traitor and then suppress him in the name of the emperor!
But doesn’t he know that this move will destroy all the reputation Yuan’s family has accumulated over the past century?
At the same time, he also wondered why this traitor could mobilize the imperial guards?
The imperial guards were under the command of Zhang He and Gao Lan, and even the puppet emperor could not mobilize them. Could it be that the two surrendered generals betrayed him?
No, they two are not here.
Yuan Shao looked at the imperial guards, but did not find Zhang He and Gao Lan. He angrily said:
"You traitor, don't talk nonsense here! In order to seize the throne, you killed your brother and imprisoned your father, which is contrary to human ethics. How come we, the Yuan family, have such a scum like you!"
"Now you are still trying to quibble and slander my Yuan family's reputation. You are a member of my Yuan family in vain!"
"Even now, you still haven't knelt down to repent and confess your sins!"
Facing Yuan Shao's reprimand, Yuan Xi looked sad and angry, and shouted sadly: "Father! I don't want to be filial to you, but the justice of the family and country comes first. I, the Yuan family, have been favored by the country for generations, how can my child watch helplessly?" You held the emperor hostage and did what the traitor Dong did!"
"My child would rather bear the reputation of being unfilial than imprison you in the house to save his life, but my father still harbors wolfish ambitions, which really makes my child heartbroken!"
"Now that the emperor's imperial guards have arrived, father should surrender as soon as possible! My child will plead with the emperor no matter what, and I must spare your life!"
Yuan Xi's voice was very loud, and he shouted so righteously that his vocal cords were damaged and could be heard from several streets away.
He just wants everyone to know that Yuan Shao is a traitor who holds the emperor hostage and causes rebellion. Now he wants to confirm the rumor and truly become a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty who killed his relatives for justice!
"Evil beast!!" Yuan Shao was furious and cursed angrily: "I, Yuan Shao, are loyal to the emperor and the country, and I am devoted to the Han Dynasty. Who gave you the courage to slander me!"
He now felt both guilty and impatient.
Yuan Xisheng put this stigma on his head in front of everyone, which was simply destroying the reputation he had worked so hard to build!
Although Cao Cao and Gongsun Zan had scolded him like this before, they said it was of a completely different nature to Yuan Xi because Yuan Xi was his biological son!
"Father, the child is helpless!" Yuan Xi's eyes were red and his voice was choked with sobs.
He got off his horse, slapped Yuan Shao three times on his head, and said with tears streaming down his face: "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been a dilemma. For the sake of the great man, I asked my father to die!"
After saying that, Yuan Xi stood up and waved his hands with tears in his eyes.
A thousand imperial guards behind him immediately rushed towards Yuan Shao!
"How dare you, evildoer!!"
Yuan Shao was shocked. He didn't expect that Yuan Xi would actually attack him. This time, he really showed his murderous intention and wanted to kill him in the name of justice!
"Protect the general!"
The guards at the south gate and the north gate roared angrily, and together with many city defense troops, stood in front of Yuan Shao to fight against the imperial guards!
With the arrival of Yuan Xi and a thousand imperial guards, the defenders of Huzi Camp and Ximen all regained their fighting spirit.
With the honor of being the emperor, they instantly felt that they were the masters of the king.
Yuan Shao and the others are the real rebels.
The huge sense of psychological superiority boosted their morale.
"Kill the rebels!"
The Ximen guard roared loudly, and led the remaining Ximen city defense troops to kill Yuan Shao together with the soldiers of the Tiger Camp.
The war begins again!
Yuan Xi was riding on a horse, looking at Yuan Shao across the battlefield. The father and son's eyes collided, and they both saw the deep murderous intent in each other's eyes.
At this moment they were no longer father and son.
But the real enemy!
Fight until death!
Seeing that the situation was so chaotic, Jushou was worried that Yuan Shao would be injured. While pulling him back into the palace, he anxiously persuaded him: "The weapons and equipment of the imperial guards are all top-notch, and the city defense army alone cannot resist it. My lord, it is better to flee Ye City quickly! "
The city defense troops outside had just gone through a fierce battle and were more or less exhausted; however, the Imperial Guards had high morale and were in good condition.
Moreover, the imperial guards were not ordinary soldiers. They were all elites who had served under Han Fu. They had experienced many wars with Zhang He and Gao Lan.
In addition, with the support of the Zhen family, they have very rich food. In the past four months, they have been practicing every two days, which is far beyond what the city defense army can match!
As soon as the two armies met, Jushou judged that the defeat of this battle was certain, and the only plan for now was to take advantage of the chaos to escape from Yecheng and go to find Yan Liang.
If you continue to stay, you will definitely die!
"I can abandon the city and flee!"
Yuan Shao was furious. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had escaped, but now he was forced to abandon the city by a fool. How could he endure such a shame and humiliation!
Tian Feng said angrily: "Does the Lord want to die here because of a moment of anger? If so, then I will fight to the death with the enemy now! If I die before the Lord, I will live up to the kindness of the Lord!"
After saying that, he rushed out of the house with his sword in hand.
"Yuan Hao, calm down!"
Shen Pei quickly stretched out his hand to hold Tian Feng. He really felt a headache at this time. One was Yuan Shao and the other was Tian Feng. Their personalities were more radical than the other.
After persuading Tian Feng to come down, Shen Pei persuaded him earnestly: "My Lord, it's just Ye City, so what's the harm in giving it to the Second Young Master temporarily? After we find General Yan Liang and join the army, it's just a matter of retaking Ye City. In a flash!"
"But if something happens to my lord, everything will be over!"
Yuan Shao's face kept changing. He glanced at the city defense troops outside the house who were struggling to hold on and were obviously unable to withstand the offensive of the Forbidden Army. Finally, he said bitterly: "Let's go!"
Jushou Shenpei and others were overjoyed, and they quickly escaped from the back door with Yuan Shao.
Before leaving, Jushou looked at the imperial guards, with a hint of gloom in his eyes.
He knew that this dispatch of the imperial guards would definitely not be simple, and it was very likely that the pseudo-emperor was behind it.
Yuan Xi was most likely just a chess piece and became a knife for the false emperor.
As long as he and Yuan Shao are killed, no one will know his identity as the false emperor from now on.
He also took this opportunity to take over Jizhou.
In this way, there is indeed a chance to turn falsehood into truth.
"As long as the general gathers the army and returns to Yecheng, it will be your death!"
Jushu thought secretly in his heart.
When he returned to Yecheng, he would persuade Yuan Shao to get rid of this false emperor no matter what.
It's a pity that there are too many people outside now, otherwise he really wants to tell Yuan Xi loudly about the true identity of the emperor in the palace.
Suppressing the unwillingness in his heart, Ju Shou quickly caught up with Yuan Shao.
When the guards at the South Gate and North Gate saw Yuan Shao and his companions retreating, they no longer wanted to fight. While retreating, they followed Yuan Shao's footsteps and fled out of the city.
"Chase! Don't let the traitor escape!"
Yuan Xi was shocked. When the situation reached this point, he had no choice but to kill Yuan Shao and fulfill his duty of exterminating relatives for justice!
On the street, you chase me, it's a scene of chilling and bloodshed.
The people all hid in fear for fear of disaster.
At the same time, I couldn't help but poke my head out to see the excitement.
Yuan Shao and his party fled all the way to the north gate under the escort of the city defense army.
Now there are no defenders at any of the major city gates, so you can easily leave the city.
The guard of the south gate looked back and saw Yuan Xi and the imperial guards chasing after him. He said with determination: "Uncle, please leave quickly. I will come to the rear!"
"Good nephew!" Yuan Shao's voice trembled, and his mood at the moment was very complicated.
His son wanted to kill him, but his nephew was willing to die for him.
A son is not as good as a nephew!
Although he was reluctant to give up, Yuan Shao also knew that now was not the time to hesitate, so he immediately fled Yecheng with a group of city defense troops with Jushou and others.
As soon as they left the city, the guard at the south gate ordered his soldiers to fall down from the city gate and destroy all the mechanisms controlling the city gate to buy Yuan Shao time to escape.
"asshole!!"
Yuan Xi rushed over and was extremely angry when he saw this. He slashed his cousin South Gate guard to death with a backhand knife, then quickly climbed up the city gate tower and shouted loudly outside the city.
"Father--!!!"
Yuan Shao, who was escaping, heard Yuan Xi's voice, reined in his horse, and turned to look.
I saw Yuan Xi kneeling down to him on the city gate tower and shouting loudly: "Father! You are holding the emperor hostage, and you are treasonous! I let you escape this time. I have done my duty as a son of man, but I feel guilty." The emperor trusts me!”
"From now on, we, father and son, will never have any sworn ties! When we meet on the battlefield in the future, I will cut off your head to repay the emperor! In the name of loyalty!"
"My son, Yuan Xi, bows down!"
As Yuan Xi spoke, he kowtowed to Yuan Shao.
Everyone could hear his words clearly!
"Evil—animal—!"
Looking at Yuan Xi who was kneeling, Yuan Shao's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He wished he could lead his troops back and kill this damn beast with his own hands!
But in the end, he endured his anger, turned his horse's head, and led the remnants of the city defense army of less than a thousand people all the way north to the frontline battlefield of Yan Liang and Gongsun Zan.
Yuan Xi watched Yuan Shao and others go away, and suppressed the sadness on his face, wiped away his tears, and stood up expressionlessly.
At this moment, he had mixed feelings and his mood was extremely complicated.
At this time, two soldiers from the Tiger Camp hurried over with Mrs. Liu.
"Evil son!" Seeing Yuan Xi, Mrs. Liu looked sad and angry. She slapped Yuan Xi and said with great sadness: "How can you slander your father like this! Do you really have any humanity at all?"
Yuan Xi looked indifferent and said lightly: "If I didn't have humanity, my mother wouldn't be able to survive now. Do you know how much trouble my mother has brought me this time?"
"You, how could you become like this..."
Mrs. Liu felt a pain in her heart and couldn't help but cover her face and cry bitterly.
Perhaps he was overly sad and passed out while crying.
Yuan Xi could only order his mother to be sent back to the house to take good care of her.
No matter what, this is the mother who gave birth to him and raised him.
Even if he dared to commit patricide, he would never dare to think of patricide.
Once you do something like this, even if you say you are loyal to the emperor, it will not help. You are really no different from an animal.
After arranging for his mother, Mrs. Liu, Yuan Xi reconvened the imperial army and rushed to the palace.
Now, he wants to show his loyalty to the emperor.
The emperor has become the only person he can rely on.
If the emperor abandons him, there will be no place for him in the vast world.
From today on, he is no longer the fourth generation and the third prince, but can only be the eagle, dog and minion of the emperor!
I wrote half of it secretly when I went to court, and half of it on my mobile phone on the subway. I am about to return to the palace, so I will quickly code and update the next 10,000 words! Don’t worry, dear friends, 20,000 words are here, although it’s late!
