Can I get to the other side?

Although Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty's riding whip was almost smoking, how could the horse run as fast as the city gate falling?

Before he could enter Xu County, the city gate fell heavily, and he was locked out of the city gate again. If he hadn't reined in his horse in time, the carriage almost hit him.

Seeing the closed city gate in front of him, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty couldn't help it anymore. He raised his head and shouted towards the city wall: "Sikong! Why don't you let me enter the city? Open the city gate quickly! I want to return to the palace!"

"I finally escaped from the traitor Dong Cheng's hold and escaped! You can't ignore me!"

"Sikong, stop hiding! I have already seen you!"

"Sikong, please say something quickly!"

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty knocked on the door and shouted, extremely anxious.

Everything he owns is in Xu County!

As long as he returns to Xu County, he can restore the majesty of the emperor, no longer have to live this wandering life, and can even see Dong Guiren and Empress Fu whom he misses day and night!

On the city wall, Cao Cao was squatting under the wall stacks.

Seeing that the soldiers around him were all looking at him, his face turned dark, and he cursed Xu Chu and Emperor Xian of Han a hundred times in his heart.

One didn't stop him from coming to Xu County, and the other just ran back to Xu County. Both guys are idiots!

Taking a deep breath, Cao Cao said coldly: "This man is not the emperor, he just looks similar to the emperor. You don't need to pay attention to what he says."

"Today's events are not allowed to be spread to outsiders. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"

After saying these words with a straight face, Cao Cao took Xu You away from the city wall and returned to Sikong Mansion.

After returning to the study, he couldn't hold it back any longer, and got furious and cursed: "Xu Chu is really useless! He was asked to escort the pseudo-emperor out of Yanzhou and Yuzhou, but it turned out that he was really just an escort! Didn't he know that he was secretly doing this? Is the false emperor rushing to Jingzhou?

Now the false emperor has come to Xu County! What exactly is in Xu Chudao’s head? Do I have to tell him clearly about this kind of thing? "

At this time, Cao Cao was really angry. He was even more upset that he should not have believed in Xu Chu's intelligence and should have made it clear to him.

It was hard to get rid of the false emperor with the help of Dong Cheng's mutiny. If he were to enter the city again, it would be extremely difficult to get rid of him.

And he will continue to bear the infamy of supporting a false emperor!

Xu You's eyes moved slightly and he suggested: "In that case, Ah Hao, why don't you just stop doing this and kill him!"

"Absolutely not!"

Cao Cao didn't even think about it, he just shook his head and refused: "Killing this false emperor will do a lot of harm to me but no good, and so many people have seen it. Once this matter gets out, if someone wants to make a fuss about it, I will What to do?”

"The false emperor cannot be killed, let alone die on my territory!"

Why didn't he want to kill Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and avoid future troubles? But he didn't want to do this kind of thing that only had disadvantages but no benefits.

I can only think of other ways.

…

East gate of Xu County.

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty stayed outside the city and called the door until his voice became hoarse and the sky turned dark, but he still stubbornly refused to leave.

Late autumn has arrived, and the nights are cold.

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty could not help but shiver from the cold even when he was hiding in the carriage. Although he was very sleepy, he still did not dare to sleep for fear that the city gate would open as soon as he fell asleep.

He has made up his mind to wait outside the city!

He didn't believe that Cao Cao would watch him die here!

Just when Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was thinking this, he suddenly heard a heavy sound of opening the door. He felt happy and quickly got out of the carriage.

Then he saw a man walking out holding a torch.

It's Cao Cao!

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was very surprised when he saw this. He quickly jumped off the carriage and rushed forward and said excitedly: "Sikong, you are finally willing to come out to see me! I knew you would not ignore me!"

"Are you here to welcome me into the city?"

After experiencing Dong Cheng, Lu Bu, and Cao Xing, he now feels extremely kind to Cao Cao - this is the person who is truly good to him!

Looking at Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty who looked so miserable and smelled sour, Cao Cao's eyes turned cold and he threw away his hand expressionlessly.

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was stunned and said: "What does Sikong mean..."

Cao Cao's reaction made him feel something was wrong.

Why...so cold?

After hearing what Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty said, Cao Cao said expressionlessly: "You and Dong Cheng joined forces to rebel and kill me. It's a mercy for me to let you go."

"I don't care whether you are a fake emperor or a real emperor, Xu County cannot tolerate you, and Yanzhou and Yuzhou cannot tolerate you!"

"If you are willing to leave, I will give you enough food and accommodation, and secretly send someone to escort you away; if you don't want to... then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Cao Cao put his hand on the sharp sword at his waist.

The murderous intent was evident in his eyes.

After much thought, he felt that the most appropriate way was to come out to meet the false emperor in person and stop this guy from entering the city. Otherwise, he didn't know how long this guy would stay outside the city.

If it takes a long time, it will be difficult for him to hide it, and the officials in the city will definitely know about it, and then he will be in trouble.

"You, you..."

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was shocked by Cao Cao's words. He did not expect that Cao Cao did not come to welcome him into the city, but forced him to leave.

After coming to his senses, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty cried and said: "Sikong, please listen to my explanation. It is really the traitor Dong Cheng who hijacked me to launch a mutiny. It has nothing to do with me!"

"Sikong, just let me enter the city! I will listen to you in everything from now on. I will issue whatever imperial edict you want me to issue, and I will appoint anyone you want to be given an official position!"

"By the way, General! How about I make Sikong General? As General and Sima, the title is also raised to the level of Duke!"

"In addition, Jiuxi, Fake Huangyue, Zanbai Buming, and Kaifu Sansi!"

"If you want to be Yi Yin, I will let you be Yi Yin. If you want to be Huo Guang, I will let you be Huo Guang."

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty pulled Cao Cao's sleeves and begged.

At this time, he also mentioned all the rewards imaginable, and even promised Cao Cao that he would be a powerful minister, hoping to impress Cao Cao and agree to let him enter the city.

But every time he said something, Cao Cao's face became uglier.

In the past, such a reward from the emperor would definitely make him so happy that he could not sleep. Yi Yin, how beautiful it sounds.

But now it just sounds harsh to him!

He was so rewarded by the false emperor, he didn't want to live anymore?

Not to mention how the emperor in Yecheng will react, just this extremely arrogant reward is enough to make the princes in the world excited!

"Shut up!"

Cao Cao interrupted Han Xian Emperor's pleas with a loud shout, and angrily shouted: "My lord! I have warned you again and again, do you really think I dare not kill you!"

As he spoke, he drew out a section of his sword.

Show off your edge!

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was so frightened that he retreated repeatedly. He looked at Cao Cao, who was filled with murderous intent in front of him, and knew that it was impossible to enter the city, so he could only turn around and stagger towards the carriage.

But before he took two steps, he fell to the ground and cried loudly: "If you let me go, where can I go!"

"Lu Bu wants to kill me, the false emperor wants to kill me, Yuan Shao wants to kill me, and now even you want to kill me too!"

"I, what on earth did I do wrong!"

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty cried extremely sadly. The palace was in the city, and his ministers and concubines were all in the city, but he could not enter the city. This despair and helplessness made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Although he didn't do anything wrong, he could never understand that as an emperor, especially an emperor in troubled times, incompetence is the biggest fault!

Cao Cao sighed, sheathed his sword, stepped forward and patiently said to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty: "Listen to me, Xu County is not a place for you to stay for a long time."

"You go west along the official road and go to Jingzhou to find Liu Biao. He is a clan member of the Han Dynasty. Will he kill you? He will definitely respect you."

"When you get to Jingzhou, if you miss these concubines in Xu County, just send an imperial edict and I will promise to deliver it to you."

What Liu Biao would do if he became the false emperor, Cao Cao could no longer control. Anyway, the one who would react the most would definitely be the Emperor of Yecheng.

And his main goal right now is Yangzhou.

In the future, he could also use the name of King Qin or Liu Biao to attack Jingzhou in the name of the emperor.

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty gradually stopped crying, with a complex look on his face, and after a long sigh he said: "I understand, please take care of yourself, Sikong, I... will miss you."

Cao Cao's eyes twitched when he heard this.

He returned to the city and handed the clothes and food he had prepared in advance to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and then put them on the carriage.

Seeing Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty driving a carriage toward Jingzhou alone, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

…

Youzhou, Yicheng.

Yuan Shao had already led his troops to withdraw from Ji County to this important border town. It was not because he did not want to continue retreating to Jizhou to support Yuan Tan, but because the casualties were too great.

On the way back from Yuyang County, the Black Mountain Army launched various ambushes and attacks on them like crazy, causing heavy casualties and also leaving them injured.

Night attacks, fire attacks, flooding, fire and horse charging... and so on, all kinds of offensives have been used by the Montenegrin army, and they will always attack when they least expect it.

Now, of the 30,000 troops and horses, more than 10,000 have been lost.

The casualties on the Montenegrin Army's side were as high as tens of thousands!

But this still could not stop the Montenegro Army's crazy attack. Just before they struggled to retreat to Yicheng, they encountered a desperate attack by the Montenegro Army, causing thousands of losses.

Now Yuan Shao is afraid to leave the city.

"These damn bandits! Are they all crazy? Or are the Yellow Turbans showing signs of recovery again? Do they all believe that they are invulnerable? Not one of them is afraid of death!"

Yuan Shao was so angry that he cursed angrily in the prefect's mansion.

He was really driven crazy by this group of Montenegrin army bandits. His army attacked Jixian without many casualties, but was lost on the way back!

And the losses amounted to tens of thousands!

Facing Yuan Shao's anger, Yan Liang, Ju Yi and other generals looked bitter. They had also suffered a lot from the Black Mountain Army during this period.

This group of thieves is really too crazy.

Tian Feng said with a heavy face: "The purpose of the Black Mountain Army is to delay us from rushing to help Qingzhou! Lu Bu must be connected with the Black Mountain Army and promised them benefits, otherwise how could these bandits be willing to risk their lives like this."

The Montenegro Army had only harassed them before, but when they began to retreat, they launched a crazy attack. This intention was too obvious.

Obviously he didn't want them to evacuate from Youzhou easily.

Its purpose is self-evident.

Yuan Shao looked ugly, stood up and shouted angrily: "Never mind! We will march again tomorrow! As long as we leave the boundaries of Youzhou, I don't believe these bandits dare to chase them to Hejian!"

"If they dare to pursue you, it will be their death!"

The reason why they were defeated in Youzhou was firstly because the Black Mountain Army was good at sneak attacks and risking their lives, and secondly because the Black Mountain Army would hide in the Taihang Mountains if they couldn't defeat them. Even if he had a large army, there was nothing he could do against those guys.

But now he has arrived in Yicheng and will soon enter Jizhou. That is his territory. He wants to see how rampant these bandits are!

If he dares to continue the attack, he will definitely make it impossible for the Montenegro Army to come back!

"Report——!"

At this moment, Lu Xiang hurriedly entered the meeting hall of the Prefecture and said to Yuan Shao: "General! General Jiang Qi is here!"

"Jiang Qi?"

Yuan Shao's expression changed slightly. Wasn't Jiang Qi sent by him to guard Qingzhou with Yuan Tan? Could something have happened?

"Bring it here quickly!"

"promise!"

Lu Xiang stepped back and entered the meeting hall with Jiang Qi after a while. Everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Qi, and then they couldn't help but be surprised.

Because the armor on Jiang Qi's body was full of knife marks, and his arms were still wrapped with gauze, he looked like he had experienced a brutal fight and was seriously injured.

Yuan Shao became increasingly uneasy and immediately asked: "Why did you come here alone? How is the battle in Qingzhou? Where is Xiansi?"

Jiang Qi looked heavy and knelt down towards Yuan Shao, crying: "General, the eldest son led the troops to intercept the emperor, but unfortunately he was hit by an arrow and died!"

"Yuan Xi feigned surrender, Wang Xiu rebelled, and the two of them teamed up to open the gates of Linzi City and let Zhang Liao's army enter the city!"

"Kong Rong quietly returned to Beihai and secretly recruited Yi Cong and Xiang Yong to raise troops in Beihai."

"I lost to Lu Bu's army and was forced to flee. Now Qingzhou has been completely occupied!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Yuan Shao took a few steps back with a bang, and shouted sadly: "Yuan Tan, my son——!"

He couldn't help but burst into tears.

Since Yuan Shang's death, the rebellious Yuan Xi has been regarded as dead by him, and he has placed all his hopes on Yuan Tan.

But now the eldest son who was most valued by him is also dead!

Even Qingzhou was lost!

Yuan Shao's eyes turned red and he roared angrily: "Yuan Xi! You rebellious evil beast! I will cut you into pieces with a thousand knives! Use your head to pay tribute to Xiansi and Xianfu!"

Now, if anyone is the person Yuan Shao hates the most and wants to kill the most, then it must be Yuan Xi. He can't wait to eat this evil beast alive!

Yuan Xi stabbed Yuan Shang and now indirectly killed Yuan Tan.

Both of his sons died because of this evil beast!

Tian Feng sighed and said: "My lord, I told you not to attack Jixian in a hurry for quick success. If not, how could the Black Mountain Army delay you in Youzhou, and how could Lu Bu and Zhang Liao attack Qingzhou without having time to support them?"

"My lord, you shouldn't have ignored my advice!"

Everything happened because of Jixian. If Yuan Shao hadn't been eager for quick success and forcibly attacked Jixian, these things would never have happened.

"Shut up!"

Yuan Shao was filled with grief and anger at this time. He drew his sword directly and placed it on Tian Feng's neck, saying sternly: "It is the general trend to attack Jixian and occupy Youzhou! What I did is not wrong!"

"You have messed up our military's morale over and over again, and you are already seeking death!"

"Come here! Put Tian Feng in jail!"

Yuan Shao could no longer bear Tian Feng. This guy chose to speak nonsense when he was in the most painful mood. He wanted to kill Tian Feng directly!

Yan Liang, Ju Yi, and Lu Xiang were all shocked when they heard this, and quickly interceded for Tian Feng: "My lord, the supervisor just made a slip of the tongue. Please think again, lord!"

"Shut up, everyone!"

Yuan Shao couldn't listen to the advice at this time, and waved his hands to ask the guards to drag Tian Feng down, with anger still lingering on his face.

Tian Feng was dragged away by the guards, but he still yelled unwillingly: "My lord, the situation is over, but you still refuse to listen to good advice. You will definitely regret it——!"

When Yuan Shao heard Tian Feng's words, "The situation is over," his eyelids suddenly jumped wildly.

Qingzhou fell, and the three counties of Jizhou fell.

He seemed to have really lost the advantage he had in facing Yecheng before. It would be much more difficult to return to Yecheng.

…

at the same time.

Yecheng, the Imperial Palace, and the Xuanshi.

After listening to the battle report from the front line, Liu Xie felt extremely proud.

He looked at Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Yang Xiu, Sima Yi and others in the hall with piercing eyes: "My lords, Qingzhou is recovered and Yanhan is rebuilt at this time. Our era has come!"

Guo Jia and Jia Xu were equally excited, with smiles on their faces.

By assisting the emperor to revitalize the Han Dynasty, they will surely shine in history and leave a mark in Chinese history.

Yang Xiu took the lead and knelt down on the ground, shouting: "Your Majesty, your Majesty will be happy for thousands of generations. The Han Dynasty will last for ten thousand years, and my Emperor will last for ten thousand years!"

Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Sima Yi and others all knelt down on the ground in excitement, shouting: "Ten thousand years for the great Han, ten thousand years for my emperor!"

The sound even reached the propaganda room.

Although the Yulin Guards who were responsible for guarding the palace outside were unaware of the situation, they also knelt down on one knee and shouted in the direction of the announcement room under the leadership of Zhang He Gao Lan.

Suddenly, the entire palace was filled with shouts of "Ten thousand years for the great Han, ten thousand years for my emperor!"

The momentum was so great that countless people in Yecheng became excited and shouted.

Yecheng is boiling!
