The Super Summoning System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 616 Forced Yuan Shao to cry

Liu Bian asked the soldiers to pull three carts of grain to Cheng Yaojin's village. Cheng Yaojin was very moved, and felt that Liu Bian was indeed as kind and wise as the rumors said, so he had a heart of attachment.

Cheng Yaojin changed into a uniform of the Khan Yulin Army, and the red armor on his body was impressive.He took the reins before Liu Bian's horse and led the horse for Liu Bian.

After a long delay, it was also regarded as a rest, and the army set off on the road again. This time, Cheng Yaojin was a restless person, and he became restless after walking for a long time.He seemed to be very familiar with Liu Bian who was on the horse, and shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, my old Cheng has been looking forward to it, but you are here. This Yuan Benchu ​​is really not a thing. Excessive taxation has made Jizhou people miserable. Our people can't survive."

"The people of Jizhou really expect our army to conquer Yuan Shao so much?" Liu Bian asked.

Cheng Yaojin nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, the original Jizhou was the largest state in the Han Dynasty and the most prosperous, but it has been seven or eight years since Yuan Shao became the lord of Jizhou. The people are struggling to live. The people can’t survive anymore, so I hope His Majesty will recover Jizhou as soon as possible, so that we can live a good life like the people under your rule.”

Liu Bian was quite satisfied with Cheng Yaojin's answer, and secretly said: "A Cui Hao will not be able to save Yuan Shao after all. I will definitely destroy Yuan Shao in this battle against the will of the people!"

Cheng Yaojin walked back in boredom, and had a general understanding of the number of Liu Bian's troops: "Your Majesty, it seems that you only have [-] to [-] troops, and Yuan Shao is stationed in Yecheng with [-] troops. It's a good fight."

Dian Wei saw that Cheng Yaojin was the worst, and said with a sneer, "You are a thief, what do you know?"

Cheng Yaojin stared and scolded: "General Dian, I am now a soldier of the big man. How can you call me a thief? Isn't this discrediting the army of the big man? What's more, how do you know that I don't understand?" ?”

But Dian Wei couldn't speak to the eloquent Cheng Yaojin, so he just said indignantly: "If you understand it, just talk about it, why is it so hard to fight?"

"As the saying goes, encircle three times and attack ten times. Your Majesty has not as many troops as Yuan Shao. Yecheng is the largest city in Jizhou. With [-] soldiers and horses passing by, how can we fight even if one city wall is not enough to fill it? "Cheng Yaojin asked back.

Liu Bian said with a smile: "You still have some knowledge. Since you think I can't take Yecheng, how about I attack Jizhou?"

Cheng Yaojin thought for a while and said: "This Yuan Shao stationed troops in Yecheng, but the other cities were empty, so His Majesty took the other cities and isolated Yecheng. I think that although Yuan Shao has many troops, they are mobs, not your majesty's main force. The opponent, once he takes the initiative to attack, His Majesty will have a chance!"

Behind Liu Bian, Liu Bowen and Guo Jia looked at each other, both a little surprised. Cheng Yaojin actually has such insight?

Dian Wei laughed loudly and said, "Others have already said what you said. His Majesty has already dispatched thousands of elite troops to take over the surrounding cities. Our trip is to go to Yecheng to confront Yuan Shao and hold back Yuan Shao's army. !"

Cheng Yaojin shouted: "What's the matter? At least I was right? This shows that my old Cheng and His Majesty have thought of going together, and I have the talent of a general!"

"Bah, with your virtue, if you lead troops, you won't be wiped out?" Dian Wei said contemptuously.

The two yelled and cursed all the way, which added a lot of vitality to the army and relieved the pressure and heavy atmosphere of the expedition.The army marched all the way north, and within two days they traveled across mountains and rivers and arrived ten miles away from Yecheng.

In Yecheng, Yuan Shao personally sits in the town, under his command are Gao Gao and Yang Dayan, and even Cui Hao is also in Yecheng.And the north is also guarded by Yan Liang and Han Meng. Yuan Shao is worried that you will send Feng Ji, Shen Pei, Guo Tu, these counselors all over.Now that Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang have been captured, facing life and death, they can't fight anymore.

Liu Bian led a large army to the city, but Yuan Shao didn't have the guts to fight. Liu Bian urged him to go forward, and when he got out of the range of the bow and arrow, he said to the top of the city, "Where is Yuan Benchu?"

Yuan Shao was hurriedly boarding the tower, looking at the menacing and murderous army below the city, his face darkened, not to mention the aura, the weapons were even more sophisticated, everyone wore armor, and all the swords, guns, swords and halberds were icy cold.

In the First World War last year, Yecheng was captured by Li Jing, and the food was divided and the soldiers were burned. Now the food used by Yuan Shao is still fighting for money.Most of Yuan Jun's soldiers are civilians, not to mention the strength of soldiers and horses, and the equipment is also very different.

Looking at Yuan Shao from a distance, Liu Bian shouted in a deep voice: "Yuan Benchu, are you guilty? As a subject, you don't want to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, but instead provoke wars repeatedly, making the people of the wealthy Jizhou miserable. Now that our soldiers are approaching the city, why don't you surrender? ?”

Yuan Shao also shouted: "Liu Bian, you are just an abolished emperor. You were driven out of Luoyang by Dong Zhuo, and then you killed the emperor Liu Xie. How dare you pretend to be orthodox? I, Yuan Shao, am loyal to the emperor Liu Xie. If you kill the orthodox emperor, I will fight with you." Things."

Both sides hold their own views and put themselves in the position of righteousness, but Yuan Shao's views are somewhat unsatisfactory.The abolition of the emperor and the murder of the king are all Yuan Shao's one-sided claims, which cannot be established at all.Liu Bian didn't bother to talk nonsense, and shouted in a deep voice: "People of Jizhou, how have you been doing these years, you know in your heart that there may be people from Montenegro among you, but it doesn't matter. You captured Yuan Shao and surrendered in Kaesong, I promise you will not be blamed!"

It's just that Liu Bian's words didn't have any effect. The guards on the top of the city are Yuan Shao's cronies, private soldiers from generations of aristocratic families, not the poor people recruited by Yuan Shao.The Black Mountain Army, on the other hand, assisted in the defense of the city and was responsible for transporting supplies. What's more, the leaders of the Black Mountain Army hated the Han court.

This was the arrangement made by Cui Hao in advance. After Liu Bian finished speaking, Yuan Shao looked around nervously. Fortunately, the soldiers were expressionless and did not intend to arrest Yuan Shao for meritorious service.Yuan Shao laughed loudly and said, "Liu Bian, I, Yuan Benchu, are here, come and attack the city if you have the ability!"

Liu Bian sneered in his heart, this Yuan Shao is completely against him now, he doesn't care about anything after his face is torn.Liu Bian smiled coldly, and said: "Yuan Shao, what's the big deal about attacking the city, I have two strong generals here, and I'm about to use them to attack the city, don't be afraid later!"

Liu Bian only had an army of [-], and Yuan Shao was not afraid of Liu Bian attacking the city, so he shouted to Liu Bian, "You attack the city if you have the ability! My head of Yuan Benchu ​​is here, waiting for you to take it."

Liu Bian clapped his hands and said, "Bring them up to me!"

The soldiers behind Liu Bian immediately escorted two people forward, and these two were Yuan Shao's favorite sons, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang!
Liu Bian pointed to Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang and said, "Yuan Benchu, these are the two new generals I have recruited, don't they look familiar to you?"

Yuan Shao's eyes were about to burst, and he shouted towards the city: "My son! Liu Bian, as the emperor, how could you act like a villain, attacking the city dignifiedly if you have the ability, what's the point of using my son as a shield A hero?"

Liu Bian laughed loudly: "Have you recognized my status as the Son of Heaven now? If you say that I am a false emperor and that my actions are despicable, then it doesn't matter if my methods are despicable."

"Liu Bian!" Yuan Shao gritted his teeth angrily, looking at Liu Bian's bloodshot eyes, Liu Bian shouted loudly: "Now, tell me whether I am an orthodox emperor or a false emperor?"

"You are..." Yuan Shao gritted his teeth, intending to convince Liu Bian not to use his son as a shield to attack the city openly.Before Yuan Shao could say anything, Cui Hao and Gao Ang held Yuan Shao back, and Cui Hao said, "My lord, at this moment, don't lose your momentum. If you give in, the morale of the soldiers will be exhausted. How can we resist?" Liu Bian's attack?"

"But my son's safety..." Yuan Shao looked anxious.

"My lord, don't worry. This Liu Bian has always regarded himself as the king of benevolence and righteousness. He will not use the two young masters as a shield to attack the city. If so, it will definitely be bad for his reputation." Cui Hao dissuaded him firmly.

Seeing the whispering on the top of the wall, Liu Bian pondered for a while, and understood that someone was trying to dissuade Yuan Shao.Liu Bian said: "Yuan Shao, do you think that I would not do such a thing because I am a benevolent king? This time you are wrong, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang are your sons, they are rebellious, I should have killed them, you I also know that the siege will cause heavy casualties. I use their lives to reduce the casualties of my soldiers, it is very cost-effective, don't you think?"

The soldiers of the Han Dynasty were very moved when they heard this. If Liu Bianzhen did this, he would tarnish his reputation and reduce the casualties of the soldiers.All the soldiers raised their weapons high: "Your Majesty is wise, Your Majesty is wise!"

Yuan Shao's face turned pale, he didn't listen to Cui Hao's suggestion, he closed his eyes and looked at Liu Bian and said, "You are orthodox, you are orthodox!"

Yuan Shao closed his eyes, two lines of old tears slid down his old cheeks, thinking about Yuan Shao's most of his life, when did he ever give in?Even in the face of Dong Zhuo, he drew his sword, but now that he refused to give in, his son's life could no longer be saved, Yuan Shao had no choice but to do so.

Yuan Shao took a deep breath and said: "If you are orthodox, you should be upright and upright, and attack the city in an upright manner. Liu Bian, don't use me as a shield!"

Liu Bian laughed loudly and said, "That's right, since you admit that I am orthodox in the world, then you should open the city and surrender!"

"Don't even think about it!" Yuan Shao shouted, interrupting Liu Bian's words.

Liu Bian chuckled and said: "Don't make up your mind so quickly. You say that orthodox taste should be upright, and I deeply agree with it, so I decided not to let you and your two sons attack the city for the truth. But the general siege At that time, you have to sacrifice the flag, and there are only these two people who are suitable, I will give you ten days to think about it, you have to think it through!"

After all, Liu Bian slapped the whip and returned to the formation without giving Yuan Shao any room to bargain.Looking at the back of Liu Bian leaving with his horse, Yuan Shao's face turned pale. According to Liu Bian's words, if Yuan Shao didn't surrender after ten days, his two sons would be killed to sacrifice the flag.

It is very normal to kill the enemy and sacrifice the flag, and it does not damage the reputation. Yuan Shao will not be able to keep his two sons even if he is soft now.
