Almost all of the 80,000 Yuan troops surrendered and were willing to go to Yangcheng to accept incorporation.

Of course, there are some of them who just want to arrive in Yangcheng first, and after they have eaten enough, they will receive food and go home to live.

Chen Xu would not let his guard down because of Yuan Jun's surrender. Because he knew that when the 80,000 Yuan troops arrived in Yangcheng, if there was a sudden mutiny, the consequences would be unimaginable.

To be on the safe side, Wen Zhao asked Zhao Yun to lead three thousand cavalry, as well as Liu Bei and Guan Yu, to return to Yangcheng with these Yuan soldiers.

Coupled with the original 2,000 soldiers in the city, and with the bravery of Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, and Gao Shun, as well as Liu Bei's personality charm. Chen Xu was able to completely rest assured and led the troops to hunt down Yuan Shu.

He took Dian Wei, Zhang Fei, and a thousand cavalry to chase and kill Yuan Shu at the same time. didn't know that Tian Feng and Jia Xu, who learned the news of the victory, were a little in a hurry.

The 80,000 Yuan troops who surrendered this time, plus the 50,000 horses captured in front of Xuanyuan Pass, put a lot of pressure on logistics.

Fortunately, a lot of grain and grass were captured by Yuan Jun, so there was no big problem. Rao is like this, and Tian Feng also rushed to Yangcheng day and night to be responsible for the placement of prisoners.

After all, whether it was Xuanyuan Pass or Yangcheng, the number of surrendered Yuan troops in the city was many times that of Chen's army.

If the guards of the two cities treat the soldiers a little inappropriately, it may cause very serious consequences.

For Jia Xu and Tian Feng, who were anxious, Chen Xu didn't care. Tai'an is leading a thousand cavalry, following the trail of Yuan Shu, chasing all the way over.

However, after tracking for a long time, there is still no trace of Yuan Shu. At this time, Chen Xu felt a little restless.

Although Yuan Shu was defeated, Yuzhou was basically still under his control. Before killing Yuan Shu, Chen Xu had no spare strength at all to seize other cities in Yuzhou.

If he can't catch up with Yuan Shu as soon as possible, after he escapes back to the city, it will definitely become extremely difficult to kill him again.

Zhang Fei rode on a war horse, did not encounter an enemy army for a long time, and felt extremely depressed. He looked up, and suddenly saw a puff of cooking smoke in the distance, and his eyes lit up.

"General, you see that there seems to be cooking smoke in front of you, is Yuan Jun cooking?"

Chen Xu was refreshed when he heard this, he raised his eyes and really saw wisps of smoke rising from the stove.

Summoning a few scouts, Chen Xu said to them, "You go and reconnoiter to see if there is Yuan Jun in front." ”

However, it was said that Yan Xiang ordered the army to be abandoned and fled with the unconscious Yuan Shu. More than 500 cavalry ran for a long time before Yuan Shu woke up and turned around.

When he learned of Yan Xiang's decision to abandon all his soldiers, he was furious and ordered Yan Xiang to be killed. After all, those tens of thousands of troops were Yuan Shu's last belongings.

Losing them, the current Yuan Shu is really about to become a loner.

The generals begged bitterly, and Yuan Shu gave up. It's just that he made Yan Xiang be imprisoned as a prisoner.

Yuan Shu, who came to his senses, felt even more hungry, and at Qiao Rui's suggestion, he slaughtered five war horses to feed the soldiers.

Although Yuan Shu's army lacked horses, as a prince, he also had more than 500 war horses under his command. Therefore, there were more than 500 soldiers and horses accompanying Yan Xiang to break through this time.

Of course, these five hundred cavalry are not cavalry in the real sense of the word at all. They are nothing more than infantry on horseback.

If they really want to compete with the elite cavalry, they can only be slaughtered.

Although Ji Ling was injured, his position in Yuan Shu's mind was still very important. Ji Ling's identity as the number one general under Yuan Shu still can't be shaken.

As a battlefield veteran, Ji Ling's vigilance is very strong.

The soldiers were all looking at the horse meat that was grilled on the fire, but Ji Ling led a small team of soldiers to patrol beside them.

"Who?"

Ji Ling's ears moved, and he shouted loudly at the grass not far away.

"Chirp!"

No sooner had he finished his sentence than an arrow shot out of the grass. Due to the proximity, Ji Ling had no way to completely avoid the past.

His body only shifted slightly, and only then did he escape the point.

"Poof!"

The arrow wound in his right shoulder had not yet healed, and Ji Ling was hit by an arrow in his left shoulder again. The Chen Army scout who shot Ji Ling flew away when Ji Ling was injured and the Yuan Army patrol soldiers were in chaos.

"General, General!"

Seeing Ji Ling's arrow, the patrolling Yuan soldiers were all shocked and stepped forward to support his body.

"Hugh will take care of me, and when you go and inform Your Majesty quickly, you will say that the pursuers have arrived, and let them retreat quickly."

Those patrolling soldiers, after hearing Ji Ling's words, two people abandoned him and ran directly to report the news. The rest of the people picked up Ji Ling with their hands and feet, and ran to the position of the garrison.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we found the Chen Army scout, and General Ji Ling was shot and wounded!"

After getting the news, everyone was shocked, and Yang Hong said in disbelief: "There are at least more than 70,000 Yuan troops in the back. ”

"Even if Chen Xu led all the soldiers and horses in Xuanyuan Pass to kill, more than 70,000 soldiers and horses would not be able to be defeated so quickly."

However, now is not the time to discuss this.

Yuan Shu suddenly heard that a chasing soldier was coming, and hurriedly said, "Quick, help me get on the horse!" ”

At this time, Yuan Shu couldn't care about the hunger in his abdomen, and just wanted to run for his life quickly.

"Kill!"

"Capture Yuan Shu alive!"

As soon as Yuan Shu rode on his war horse, he heard a shout of killing. He looked up and saw that the soldiers in charge of patrolling were all covered in blood.

The first person said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, General Ji Ling has been captured by the thief army. ”

At this time, where can Yuan Shu still take care of Ji Ling? He said to Lei Bo: "After you lead the soldiers and horses to break, after I retreat, it is not too late for you to escape." ”

After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Lei Bo to answer, and directly greeted Qiao Rui, Zhang Xun, Yang Hong, and Yuan Yin, and led dozens of horsemen to quickly evacuate the battlefield.

Yan Xiang, who was still imprisoned, shouted loudly at the stunned Lei Bo: "Why are you still stunned, why don't you let people release me and organize people to resist Chen Jun?" ”

It was only at this time that Lei Bo woke up. After he saw Yan Xiang, his eyes showed a hint of brilliance.

"Quick, let go of Lord Yan."

After Yan Xiang got out, he picked up a long sword and said with his head held high: "Eat the king's fortune, worry about the king." If it weren't for my advice, Chen Jun would have seen through it again and again, and His Majesty would not have ended up in such a field. ”

Speaking of this, Yan Xiang's face was full of remorse.

He waved the long sword in his hand and shouted: "The time has come to die for Your Majesty, and all the armies should fight to the death!" ”

However, five hundred pseudo-cavalry, having experienced defeat after defeat, where will there be a fighting spirit at this time? They all set their eyes on Lei Bo, hoping to hear the Lord's order to retreat.

Lei Bo looked at Yan Xiang supporting his thin body, still unafraid, and couldn't help but feel ashamed of his cowardice.

He remembered the days when he was a general under Yuan Shu, and the scenery was beautiful; Thinking of Yuan Shu's kindness to him, he immediately became more arrogant, and said: "What Lord Yan Bo said is right, the Lu of eating the monarch and the matter of loyalty to the monarch. ”

"Even if I die in battle today, I will delay enough time for Your Majesty."

Five hundred cavalry, before they could refute it, felt the shaking of the earth. They looked up and saw a cavalry rushing towards them.

Lei Bo rushed over first and shouted, "Kill!" ”

Dian Wei had long been itching, and directly slapped his horse to meet Lei Bo, and in just five rounds, Lei Bo was killed by Dian Wei.

The rest of the battle, but there was no suspense at all. The five hundred puppet cavalry of the Yuan army were mercilessly slaughtered by the one thousand elites led by Chen Xu.

said that Li Fang, a person from Shouchun, killed his wife in order to save his mother. However, his mother still did not survive after all.

After booby-trapping a few ruffians, Li Fang made them all into jerky, and then fled from Shouchun in the starry night.

He heard that Chen Xu treated the people very well and recruited homeless people everywhere, so he thought about migrating to Guanzhong.

Unfortunately, Yuan Shu was at war with Chen Xu and blocked all roads to Guanzhong.

In desperation, Li Fang relied on a little meat in his hands and a lot of strength in his own hands. In a short period of time, more than 200 people gathered, occupied a small hill, and made a living by robbing houses and houses.

However, now that famine is everywhere and wars are raging, there is almost no rooster crow in Yuzhou. Seeing that there was less and less grain and grass in the village, Li Fang did not find the next target at all.

Today, someone suddenly came to report that he found smoke more than ten miles ahead.

When Li Fang heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, so he lit up his soldiers and horses and went to the location of the cooking smoke to kill.

But they didn't want to, not long after they advanced, they actually encountered more than twenty cavalrymen on war horses. The first person, wearing a golden crown and a dragon robe, is Yuan Shu who fled in a hurry.

Yuan Shu was running for his life, but suddenly met a group of people and horses, and was immediately overjoyed.

Because this is the territory under his jurisdiction, as long as there are soldiers and horses, it is very likely that they are his subordinates.

However, Zhang Xun saw that there was something wrong, and hurriedly took a weapon in front of Yuan Shu, looking at Li Fang and the others vigilantly.

A small leader beside Li Fang stared at more than twenty war horses with a coveted face, excited.

In troubled times, the value of war horses is even far greater than that of grain and grass. As long as they are used properly, these twenty or so war horses can definitely be exchanged for the grain and grass that the cottage needs for a year.

It was precisely because everyone knew this that they automatically ignored the strong combat effectiveness of the cavalry, and only thought about robbing these war horses.

At this time, Yuan Shu also felt that something was wrong, and he suddenly spoke: "I am the son of heaven of the Zhong Dynasty, who are you waiting for, who dares to block my way?" ”

Yuan Shu suddenly reported his origin, and immediately frightened everyone on both sides.

After Li Fang was surprised, he remembered that his family's food was robbed; remembered that his father was forcibly conscripted into the army, and after he died in battle, the government asked for funeral expenses, and his eyes immediately turned red.

He shouted at the bandits behind him, "Why have I come to this point? Now that the enemy is right in front of you, you brothers will kill me with me! ”

After speaking, Li Fang directly bent his bow and arrow, and an arrow hit Yuan Shu's throat. A generation of princes Yuan Highway died in the hands of an unknown person.
