Chapter 337: Yuan Shu's Defeat (3)
When he arrived at the Huaishui bank, Yuan Shu looked at the smoke and fog in the distance, and said with a smile Liu Xun: "Liu Qing, after crossing the Huaishui, you can go to Xia Cai, and then we will return to the north together, and after arriving in Jizhou, with the help of my brother, sooner or later we will avenge this revenge." After speaking, he ordered his soldiers to look for ships and prepare to cross Huai.
As soon as he finished the order, suddenly a drum sounded, and when Yuan Shumeng looked back, he saw a Han cavalry coming in a row. The head is in front of the general, the horse is whipped, the majesty is extraordinary, not that Zhang Fei, but who is it.
I only heard Zhang Fei shouting, raising his spear and pointing at Yuan Shu and shouting: "Yuan thief leave!" ”
Zhang Fei suddenly appeared here, which surprised Yuan Jun, who was still happy and happy to escape from his life just now. They fled all the way, tired and hungry, and when they saw this energetic Han cavalry again, their spirits collapsed instantly. Yuan Shu saw that his army was in chaos and knew that the general trend had gone. Liu Xun bowed to Yuan Shu and said, "The lord can quickly cross the Huai, and when he arrives in the north, don't forget me and wait." So he led a group of soldiers and shouted at Zhang Fei to kill him.
Yuan Shu glanced at Liu Xun, turned his horse and walked towards the riverbank. When Zhang Fei saw Yuan Shu leaving, he wanted to chase after him, but he was entangled by Liu Xun's life. Zhang Fei was furious, and stabbed Liu Xun to the ground. So he killed all the soldiers and chased Yuan Shu.
When Yuan Shu arrived at the water's edge, a small school propped up the boat and said, "Lord, get on the boat quickly." ”
Yuan Shu looked at the soldiers who were still fighting for him over there, sighed in his heart, and thought that even if he crossed the Huaishui and went north alone, he was afraid that he would not be able to escape Liu Bei's poisonous hands. It's better to buy Yuan Yin some time. So he said: "When I was in my heyday, I brought 100,000 armor, and now I have the face to flee to Huaibei alone?" ”
After all, it was a generation of high-ranking families like the Runan Yuan family, and the pride of the children of the family finally appeared on Yuan Shu's body again. He said to the little school: "You will go down to Cai and return north with Yuan Yin." After speaking, Yuan Shu turned the horse's head, took out the sword at his waist, and rushed towards Zhang Fei. At this time, he had only one thought in his heart, but he wanted to die quickly.
When the little colonel behind him saw it, he cried loudly: "The king is in trouble, how can the minister secretly live alone?" So he abandoned the boat, walked ashore, and followed Yuan to fight the Han army.
Yuan Shu came to fight Zhang Fei with a sword, and as soon as he closed, he was stabbed under the horse by Zhang Fei's spear. The little colonel behind him saw it and shouted, "Lord!" Then he stabbed Zhang Fei with his sword. was embraced by Zhang Fei's soldiers behind him and cut into several sections.
Zhang Fei beheaded the recalcitrant Yuan army one by one, and then collected all the Yuan army's pawns. Zhang Fei flew to the corpse of the little school and said to the left and right: "This person is loyal to the martyrs, so he should be buried." ”
He also ordered people to pack up the corpses of Yuan Shu and Liu Xun, as well as the seals and documents of Yuan Shujun's army. Then prepare to return to Shouchun. Before leaving, Zhang Fei looked back and saw that at this time, the Huai water was surging, and the spring was thick in the sky.
Xia Cai, Yuan Yin heard that there was a big battle by the Huai River, and hurriedly sent an envoy to investigate, and before long, the scout came to report, saying that Shouchun was captured, and that the lord and General Liu had been defeated on the Huai River bank.
When Yuan Yin heard this, he cried a lot, so he led the soldiers and escorted the Yuan family all the way to the north.
In Shouchun City, Liu Bei ordered Guan Yu and Yan Yan to lead troops together to divide the four cities, and asked Lu Min and others to go out to appease the gentry and people in the city, collect materials, and prepare to repair the collapsed city wall of Shouchun City.
When Guan Yu arrived in Beicheng, he saw that there were countless chaotic soldiers, who were robbing houses in groups, killing people and setting fires. couldn't help but be furious, so he ordered all the soldiers to sweep all the way through the alley and mile, but anyone who saw something wrong would be beheaded.
Killed all the way from the north city to the west city, only killing people's heads. When some of the rebels saw this, they stopped and knelt down to surrender. Guan Yu has been in the Qingzhou Army for many years and knows that Liu Bei hates these military ruffians the most. In time of war, they do not serve their Lord, and when they are defeated and they are plagued by the people, they are left to do nothing. It's better to cut it off and give credit to the soldiers. So he refused to surrender, and after he was captured, he ordered him to be beheaded in the street. Some of the people saw it through the crack in the door, and although their hearts were full of fear and blood, they still secretly clapped their hands in joy.
When he arrived, Guan Yu saw a group of rebels attacking a house. This house counts back and forth, and at first glance it is not an ordinary family. When Guan Yu arrived, the house had already been breached, and there were shouts of killing and screams in the courtyard. As soon as Guan Yu rushed in, he saw several cold rays coming, Guan Yu swung his knife to block it, and then the sword light was everywhere. In a few breaths, the courtyard was full of blood clots from corpses.
When the courtyard was quiet, I saw two women in the courtyard hugging each other and trembling. There were more than a dozen corpses poured next to them, and the clothes should be maids and housekeepers.
Guan Yu said: "The thief is dead." ”
The second daughter trembled for a while, and the one on the left finally calmed down, and Ying Ying bowed and said: "Minnu Qiao, thank you for the general's life-saving grace." ”
Guan Yu immediately swept his eyes, and saw that this woman was generous and had an excellent appearance, so he couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart, and he pondered for a while, and said: "Qiao Shi, can it be related to Qiao Rui?" ”
The Bridge whispered, "This ancestor is also." ”
Guan Yu said: "Since you are a family member of the guilty minister, you will follow me to the camp and wait for the lord's fate." So he ordered the sergeant to send the second bridge into the camp. After pacifying the northern city, he went to Yuan Shu Palace to see Liu Bei.
At this time, Liu Bei was sighing in the Yuan Shu Palace. It took a few years to build such a luxurious palace, how much money did Yuan Shu make in Yangzhou? Yuan Shu has such a means of making money, but he doesn't know how stupid it is to repair the city and train the armor, but he has built so many buildings and pavilions.
After a big battle, Yuan Shu's army was defeated and fled, and the concubines and concubines in the palace fled, but there were still many women who were captured by Yuan Shu to stay in the palace. After Liu Bei entered the city, his status was noble, so he naturally wanted to live in the palace. Liu Ke was by his side, and he had to stay left and right. Liu Bei saw so many palace people, and couldn't help frowning, Yuan Shu was not shallow. So he summoned the women and said: "Yuan Shu is dead, and you are free, but you can return to your own family." Don't stay here anymore. ”
The women cried, and when Liu Bei asked, he knew that these women were all snatched from all over the country by Yuan Shu's generals. Some are far away in Yuzhou, some are far away in Xuzhou, they have never been far away before they were robbed, this army is in chaos, let them how to go back as weak women. Except here, they have nowhere to go, and if Liu Bei doesn't let them live here, they don't know what to do.
Liu Bei sighed, Yuan Shu did evil, he deserved to die. So he said: "If there are those who wish to return home, Qingzhou will send someone to escort them." If you don't want to return, stay for the time being. "You can't forcibly pick people up, let's raise them first. There are so many bachelors in the Qingzhou army, these women are good-looking, and I'm afraid that no one wants them?
The ladies bowed down again. Liu Ke said on the side: "Brother, do you want someone to serve?" ”
Liu Bei glared at Liu Ke angrily, why, you, a pro-army general, also want to do pimping work? Just as he was about to speak, the guards came to report that General Guan had asked to see him. Liu Bei waved his hand and asked people to bring Guan Yu in.
After Guan Yu came in, he said to Liu Bei: "Lord, I am in the north of the city, and I am here to offer the two daughters of Qiaorui." ”
Liu Bei said: "Qiao Rui? ”
Guan Yu said: "Exactly! ”
Liu Bei's heart and bridge were all beheaded by you, and you still robbed his daughter, is this okay? I'm not a greedy woman like Cao Mengde, what to offer, I was about to wave my hand, but I didn't see it. reacted suddenly, the second daughter of Qiao Rui, is it the second bridge?
So he said, "Bring it in." ”
Guan Yu asked people to bring the second bridge in. Liu Bei saw that the second daughter was standing there graceful and moving. Liu Bei sighed in his heart, it was really a natural beauty, I felt pity, even characters like Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, and I couldn't help but treasure it. With such a national color, how can you let it go? When he turned his head to look at Guan Yu again, although he was serious and stood straight, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the corner of his eye was secretly glancing at the second daughter.
Liu Bei said in his heart, Yide is unreliable, and Yun Chang is also a pervert. I also remembered that in history, Guan Yu had taken a fancy to Qin Yilu's wife Du Shi at a glance, and nagged in Cao Cao's ear that he wanted to accept her as his wife, but he was worried about Cao Cao, a big pervert, and after seeing Du Shi, he didn't give it to Guan Yu. It's pathetic. Let's go. This time he was not satisfied, but he was afraid that he would not sleep well and eat well. So he got what he wanted.
So Liu Bei accepted the bridge and gave the small bridge to Guan Yu. Guan Yu was overjoyed when he heard this, and then bowed and left. The two daughters can still get one of them, it is really the lord who pities my old guan.
