The first autumn rain has just fallen. This is the No. 30 eight rains in the Lujiang area since the beginning of summer this year.The sky was gloomy, as if there were endless tears, drizzling in the air.
There was no sunshine during the grain filling period, and large tracts of rice and millet seedlings rotted in the fields. The poor in Guizhou could only make ends meet with pitifully small apricots and dates.Soon, all the wild fruits that could be found were eaten up, and people began to eat wild vegetables, river mussels, even loaches and snakes.Then, as the river became increasingly turbid, strange diseases such as edema and diarrhea continued to break out in various places.
Public grievances boiled over.This was also the main reason for Yuan Shu's complete defeat after the summer harvest season.
When it was time to flee, the soldiers who were still following Yuan Shu were also full of indifference.Rather than saying that they are a force that retains the last loyalty, it is better to say that they are a community of interests that have to be together in order to increase the chance of escape.
However, Yuan Shu still lacks self-awareness, or in other words, the noble son of the Yuan family has always been unaware of his attitude towards the lower class.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! Work harder! When you reach my uncle, you will all be rewarded." Accompanied by Yuan Shu's hoarse voice, the carriage with a broken Chexuan galloped quickly on the dirt road.The muddy water splashed on both sides of the wheels, sprayed the soldier beside the car on the face, then mixed with the rainwater and flowed down his withered and yellow face.
"Quick! Quick! Damn Liu Yao stabbed me in the back. Shameless villain! They surnamed Liu are all shameless villains!" With the muffled sound of the soaked whip, the open carriage kept rolling over and was washed by the rain. Looks like dirt and stone.The fine gilt and red lacquer was covered in mud, never to be seen again in its former splendor.The canopy on the roof of the car had long since disappeared. Yuan Shu relied on the emperor's crown to keep out the rain, and his beard was soaked.
But even so, he was much, much better than the soldiers who were trudging through the mud and falling behind.
The rain gradually subsided, but the sky was still smudged with gray clouds like ink.The fog ahead slowly lifted, revealing a small hill covered with chestnut trees.
"Where's Liu Yao? Did Liu Yao catch up?" Yuan Shu turned his head to look, his wet hair was sticky at this moment, and when he turned his head, he almost threw it out together with the shaky twelfth. "Have Liu Yao's soldiers caught up? Huh?!"
The little soldier who came up to talk back and forth saw that his leg was about to break, and he grabbed the shaft of the car: "Report, hoo hoo, I didn't see any chasing soldiers."
At this time, Yuan Shu didn't care about the other party's lack of courtesy, and didn't call him "Your Majesty" anymore.He patted his chest: "It's fine if I didn't catch up, it's fine if I didn't catch up. It'll be fine when I leave the boundary of Yangzhou. Tao Qian in Xuzhou has always been honest. I borrowed troops from him... maybe I don't need to go to Jizhou to find him." bastard."
He preciously took out a package from his chest, which looked like a huge square seal.Untie the outermost layer of cloth, and there is a letter inside, which is Yuan Shao's letter agreeing to accept him (and his Jade Seal).
Yuan Shu stared at the letter with a distressed and unwilling expression on his face. "That bastard, I didn't expect..." He muttered in a low voice, but he didn't throw away the letter after all.Yuan Shu wrapped the seal and the letter again. In the process of fleeing for his life, the cloth bag was well protected and very dry.
"Let's go," Yuan Shu said to his subordinates, "Go north, to Xuzhou."
"My lord, half of the people haven't followed. Is it..."
"What is it?! We've been waiting here for a cup of tea. Anyone who didn't come here must have been Liu Yao's ghost. Go!" With a strong pump, countless mud spots were raised.
So the wheels turned slowly and started on the road again.After passing the boundary marker in front, it is Xuzhou.And Tao Qian is one of the rare princes who did not send troops this time.
"How many people want my Jade Seal, do you know?! Jiujiang County is full of people who want to find leaks, do you know?! Damn it! Damn it! Damn Cao Cao! Damn Liu Yao! Damn..." After a long absence The sun showed a glimmer of light from behind the dark clouds, but Yuan Shu became more irritable and cursed continuously.The soldiers bowed their heads and listened silently, not even bothering to pay attention to the mud spots on their bodies.
Just like that, this team, with only one chattering while the others were eerily silent, crossed the boundary marker.
"Yuan Gonglu, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Accompanied by an excited shout, a troop suddenly appeared on the hill, holding the banner of Tao Qian high.Taking a closer look, the leader was none other than Tao Qian's general Zang Ba.
There was still something in Yuan Shu's mind that he didn't understand.In a crowd of heroes competing for the deer, he was regarded as the deer.There are at least [-] elite soldiers on the other side, but what about my side?Hundreds of weak and weak soldiers and defeated generals.Counting from left to right is a proposition.
"Hahahaha." Yuan Shu laughed loudly, "Tao Qian usually pretends to be indifferent to the world, but the result? He is not coveting the Jade Seal of the Kingdom. This is a treasure that must obey the will of God. How could he choose Tao Qian who is timid. "
"Shut up!" Zang Ba drew out his knife.
"Oh. Do you really want to kill me? Think about it. My Yuan family's old disciples are all over Xuzhou. It's easy to kill me. After killing me, I want to get the support of the family peacefully. It's just a dream! General Zang, what do you think? Well, don't bring trouble to your lord."
"It's not impossible to save your life." Zang Ba looked playfully at the embarrassed Yuan Shu, "Hand over the jade seal and let you go there."
Yuan Shu's face was livid.
"Can you pay?" Zang Ba laughed.
Yuan Shu hugged the package in his arms tightly, his hands began to tremble. "Mandate of Heaven" or life, that is the question.
Fortunately, the heavens did not let Yuan Shu dwell on this issue for too long. "Yuan Shu, take your life!" Accompanied by the youthful rebuke, a cavalryman in black clothes and red trousers sprang out from the wet grass, and with the momentum of the galloping horse, the spear flew a Yuan Bing.
"Yuan Shu!" Sun Ce reined in his horse, his handsome face, which had just grown a fluffy beard, twisted slightly, but finally returned to a steel-like seriousness, "Today I will avenge the murder of my father."
As soon as the words fell, more and more black cavalry came out from the path in the grass and stood behind Sun Ce, and the number of them was increasing.The last two teenagers who emerged, one was Cao Ang and the other was Zhou Yu, looked at Sun Ce with worry.
"Bo Fu," Zhou Yu patted his horse forward, and lightly pressed Sun Ce's hand holding the gun, "Bo Fu is calm. In the long run, Yuan Shu can only be killed by Cao Gong, as we agreed before. And why did you run out today? ? Are you afraid that Mrs. Cao will not like it?"
Sun Ce's brows were so tight that he almost pinched the fly to death. "I want to use Yuan Shu's head to comfort my father's spirit in heaven."
Why are you so stubborn?Zhou Yu had no choice but to cast his eyes on Cao Ang for help: "Zixiu stop him quickly."
Cao Ang, Cao Ang blinked with an innocent look on his face.
Why are you so cute at this moment?Zhou Yu was going crazy.This is really going to make Sun Ce kill Yuan Shu, no matter how lenient Cao Cao is, he will probably have a grudge against this son-in-law.
According to the predetermined plan, they just stuck behind and chased Yuan Shu away, forcing him to go to Jizhou, so that they had an excuse to attack Yuan Shao.Who would have thought that Yuan Shu would be so inexperienced that he would be desperate as soon as he left Yangzhou.
The centipede is dead but not stiff. After all, Yuan Shu has been the emperor for several years. In the end, he didn't even have an army willing to serve him. It must have been a failure.
Seeing that Yuan Shu was about to be killed, Sun Ce became anxious and jumped out to grab his head.But this head cannot be snatched, not only because the dropped item is the Jade Seal of the Kingdom of "Whoever takes it dies"; this head is also a symbol of "Whoever kills becomes king".
In Cao Ying, Cao Cao was very popular, and Cao Cao almost regarded the Sun family as his own sons. Who would be willing to turn his face in this situation?Anyway, Zhou Yu was not happy.
Ever since Sun Ce showed up, Yuan Shu's heart was chilled.The scene where this kid beheaded three of his generals at the foot of Shouchun City seems to be still in front of him, and Sun Bofu is blinded by the revenge of killing his father, and he can't hear any interests, even if he handed over the Jade Seal of Chuanguo , he may not take a second look.
How to do?
His eyeballs rolled around in despair, and finally he found the only person who could save him from Sun Ce——Cao Ang.He is the son of Cao Cao, Sun Ce's boss, and his status is higher than Sun Ce's.If Sun Ce still wants to hang out in Cao Ying, he must listen to Cao Ang.
Thinking of it this way, Yuan Shu seemed to have grasped at straws, and shouted loudly, "Nephew Zixiu Xian, save me——I am willing to present the jade seal. This is the destiny of the first emperor since the beginning of the emperor."
The eyes of Zang Ba in front are about to protrude, and the fat in his mouth is going to fly away? "My lord, Yuan Shu is going to surrender to Cao Jun, let's hurry up, don't be preempted by some boys."
Tao Qian was afraid: "Sun Bofu's bravery is well known in the world. Cao Ang led the best of Cao's elite, commonly known as flying eagle riders, who were not afraid of death. There was a record of fighting Xiqiang to the last man. With such an army, small fights will not make them retreat. Fighting to the death is like fighting Cao Cao forever."
Zang Ba was still not reconciled, and ordered the archers to draw their bows to the full.But Tao Qian above was cowardly, so he just let the archers draw their bows full.
Over there, Yuan Shu was still tempting: "Zixiuxian has many brothers and nephews, and only by establishing achievements can he stand out. If you have the credit for retrieving the jade seal, you will definitely be loved by your father. In the future, you will be the capital to look down on your brothers."
Cao Ang smiled, as if he had just understood what Yuan Shu was saying.
"Cao Zixiu, if you stop me today, we won't be friends anymore." Sun Ce looked at him sideways, his voice seemed to come out of his throat.
Cao Ang untied his bow and knocked down Sun Ce's spear. "Gongjin is right, it's inappropriate for you to do this."
Just as Sun Ce was about to change his face, he saw Cao Ang bent his bow and set an arrow pointing directly at Yuan Shu: "Yuan Gonggong, what you said is very good. But you are worthless to me as a treasure of life."
Put the string and shoot the arrow.
Under everyone's gaze, the black steel arrow engraved with the word "ang" pierced through the air, penetrated the square package on Yuan Shu's chest, and then pierced Yuan Shu's chest.
really?Even Sun Ce was stunned, not even hearing the sound of the broken stone that killed his father.
Blood splashed everywhere, accompanied by crystal jade fragments that exploded in the air and scattered on the muddy land after the rain.
"The so-called Jade Seal of Chuanguo was originally made by the Tyrant Qin Dynasty. The five emperors did not have the Jade Seal, and all the people were still subject to them; Wang Mang and Yuan Shu possessed the Jade Seal, but they still could not die well. I have read sage books for 17 years, and I only know that I am loyal to the benevolent king and appease the kind people. , I didn’t know there was a jade seal.” After saying this, Cao Ang retracted his bow, with that absent-minded smile still on his face.
"Since the mission has changed, Gongjin, should we go back and report it? Bofu, tomorrow is your big day. If you don't leave, you won't be able to catch up with the auspicious time. Hey, by the way, it just so happens that the sacrifices for Uncle Sun are too late. With that, isn’t that very good, very good.”
Sun Ce stayed there for a while, then patted his horse forward, swung his knife and cut off Yuan Shu's head, threw away the emperor's crown, and walked away with his hair in his hands.
The black cavalry followed silently and disappeared into the woods.Then Yuan Shu's remnant soldiers shouted "Surrender" and followed.Only Cao Ang's voice, still out of state, was left floating in the air: "Uncle Tao, the elder sister is getting married tomorrow, why don't you come with us to have a wedding wine?"
Tao Qian's back was covered with cold sweat: "No, no, no gift. I don't have a congratulatory gift, so I don't want to go."
There was no sunshine during the grain filling period, and large tracts of rice and millet seedlings rotted in the fields. The poor in Guizhou could only make ends meet with pitifully small apricots and dates.Soon, all the wild fruits that could be found were eaten up, and people began to eat wild vegetables, river mussels, even loaches and snakes.Then, as the river became increasingly turbid, strange diseases such as edema and diarrhea continued to break out in various places.
