Chapter 206 The Jin Army Arrives And Yuan Shang Dies
Xu Huang nodded in agreement and called out to the back: "Where are Wang Bodang and Gao Lan.
"The end will be here."
Wang Bodang and Wang Bodang immediately understood what Xu Huang meant. The other party wanted to give this huge credit to them, so naturally they happily accepted it.
"My general ordered you to each lead three thousand elite cavalry to attack from the east and west in order to intercept the two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang.
"As you command!"
Wang Bodang and his two men took the order, and at that moment they led their light cavalry to search south of the Bohai Sea and west of Leling to prevent Yuan Tan and others from escaping to Cao Cao's territory.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Yun also handed over his hand and asked for orders: "To be sure, I am willing to lead a light cavalry to pursue.
The 10,000 light cavalry led by Zhao Yun were originally here to assist Xu Huang.
Who would have thought that Yuan Jun was so vulnerable that as soon as he led his army to the battlefield, the enemy on the other side was beaten to the ground and completely defeated.
Seeing that there was no merit to be gained, Zhao Yun didn't want to come here in vain. He might as well take the army out to join in the fun.
"In that case, I will go to General Zilong and lead 4,000 light cavalry to pursue him."
"promise!"
Zhao Yun took the order and also led his cavalry, and Brother Liu launched a search for Hou.
The two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, protected by a group of soldiers, fled without daring to stop at all.
Among their escaping team, they also brought many family members and gold and silver items with them.
These individuals cannot ride horses and can only ride in carriages, which greatly limits their escape speed.
Zhao Yun, Wang Bodang and Gao Lan all led light cavalry, and their speed was simply not comparable to that of Yuan Tan and others.
Once they are overtaken by the Jin cavalry, what fate awaits them.
Everyone doesn’t need to think too much, they all know it clearly.
Zhao Yun and the other three led three light cavalry groups respectively to pursue the Yuan brothers, while Xu Huang led the remaining army and continued to approach Lanpi City.
Taking advantage of the fact that the two Yuan brothers fled and the people in Nanpi City were in a daze and in chaos, Dangjie launched a massive attack on Nanpi.
The soldiers and civilians of Nanpi City first experienced the death of Yuan Shao, followed by the fight between the two sons of the Yuan family for power, and now they were besieged by the Jin army.
The people were in panic, the soldiers had no fighting spirit, the generals had no fighting spirit, and they simply did not have the courage to become enemies of the Jin army.
Before Xu Huang could give the order to launch a general attack on Nanpi, someone opened the Nanpi city gate and surrendered to Xu Huang.
Xu Huang quickly ordered his troops to collect all the surrendered soldiers, and then sent a large army into the city to capture the four gates of Nanpi. He also ordered his troops to seize the arsenal and grain depot and control Yuan Shao's mansion.
Leling, Ban County.
After several days of traveling, brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, together with a group of children, finally arrived here under the protection of Qing soldiers.
Here is the Gaohe River. As long as they cross the Gaohe River and enter Pingyuan County, which is Cao Cao's territory, they will be able to get rid of the Jin army's pursuit and be completely safe.
"Guo Tu, you set off immediately, as a vanguard, rush to the plain first, explain our situation to Cao Cao, and ask Cao Cao to send a large army to meet us."
"promise!"
With Yuan Tan's order, Guo Tu did not dare to say anything more, dragging his tired body and continued on his way to the plain.
Yuan Shang, Feng Ji and others originally became mortal enemies with Yuan Tan because of the Yuan family's position. The two brothers even fell in love and killed each other for a while.
If the Jin army hadn't arrived too quickly and caught them off guard, the two of them would have had no choice but to shake hands and make peace.
Now, Yuan Tan behaves like a boss, making all decisions privately and never discussing with them.
Such overbearing behavior also made the two of them full of anger and unhappy.
Brother, time is urgent. Let's not waste time here. Hurry up and cross the Gaohe River. Only by reaching Cao Cao's territory can we be completely safe. "
Yuan Shang became increasingly unhappy with Yuan Tan, his eldest brother, frowning and looking livid.
"There is no need to be anxious about this matter."
It seems that he and others are completely safe after they escape here. Yuan Tan is not too anxious at this time, but proudly analyzes his own reasoning.
"We are now like lost dogs, fleeing to Cao Cao. Even if we defect to Cao Cao, or even bow to Cao Cao, the other party will not take our brothers seriously, and may even marginalize us completely."
"We are the descendants of the Yuan family after all. If Cao Cao can personally lead the army to welcome us, our wealth will be significantly improved."
"In the future, I will be dormant and waiting. With the savings of the Yuan family, I may not be able to make a comeback one day."
"You have become a lost dog now, and you are still here dreaming about your spring and autumn dreams. You should hurry up and
Hearing that his eldest brother was still talking here about making a comeback, Yuan Shang couldn't help but scold his eldest brother.
But before he finished speaking, he heard a rumble from behind. This was followed by waves of war horses neighing.
"No, it's the Jin cavalry. The Jin cavalry is chasing us. Retreat quickly."
At this moment, Yuan Shang was too lazy to argue too much with this dreamy elder brother.
He pushed Yuan Tan away and fled directly to a small boat, urging the rowing soldiers to quickly sail away to escape.
The soldier was still hesitant and did not make a decision immediately. He just subconsciously turned to look at Yuan Tan, as if he was still waiting for Yuan Bo's order.
Seeing this, Yuan Shang became furious and said: "Asshole, you deserve to die, you are a member of my Yuan family. My father just died, and you disobeyed my orders. Do you want to rebel?"
In anger, Yuan Shang pulled out the sword from his waist and planned to kill the boatman as if he had a disagreement.
When Yuan Tan saw this, he was also furious: "Yuan Shang, what do you want to do? Do you want to escape alone because the enemy is in front of you?"
"I, the eldest brother, haven't even gone up yet. Do you want to take over? Why don't you get down quickly?
It was a matter of life and death, and Yuan Shang couldn't listen to anything Yuan Tan said.
Being taught a lesson by Yuan Tan again completely ignited the fire in Yuan Shang's heart.
Without saying anything more, he raised his hand and slashed his sword, killing the boatman directly.
Then he threw away his sword, picked up the oar, and worked hard. Sliding forward, trying to escape to the opposite bank.
It's a pity that fire and water are ruthless, and sometimes Yuan Shang can control them.
As Yuan Shao's most beloved son, Yuan Shao had been well-dressed and well-fed since he was a child. He was familiar with horseback riding and archery, but he had never been involved in the work of servants such as boating.
After struggling for a few times, he found that the boat tilted to one side unconsciously.
Under the gaze of everyone, the entire boat fell directly into the water and was completely submerged by the rolling flood. .
