Yuan Shao was overjoyed when he heard this. He couldn't help but burst out laughing and said, "Okay! Good! Good! Sure enough, God will not stop me!"

"Lü Bu besieged the city for ten days, and the troops under his command suffered heavy casualties. Guo Yuan came at a great time. This battle must annihilate Lü Bu's troops in one fell swoop!"

"Woo--!"

Jiang Qi said in a deep voice, "We can't run away now, what else can we do? Only by trying to persuade Qu Yi to surrender together can we have a chance to survive!"

When he led the troops and cut off the rear, he was in even more danger. He almost died at the hands of Zhao Yun, and managed to escape with great difficulty.

With the general dead, these Soldierss, who had lost their morale for a long time, naturally did not dare to resist anymore, and upon hearing this, they all put down their weapons.

He was angered by Yan Liang, so he first beheaded Yan Liang and then went after Yuan Shao. Otherwise, Yuan Shao might not have been able to escape.

The two teams soon met.

The soldiers and horses behind him also drew their swords.

"Two generals, do you have confidence?"

It's his turn to be the Yi Cong dragon!

Qu Yi held up Spear in his hand, with an uncertain expression. He was obviously moved by what Jiang Qi said and was hesitating in his heart.

"What?"

Jiang Qi's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and he still couldn't figure out why Qu Yi suddenly took action.

However, although they fled, they succeeded in stalling for time.

"Yes, Lord!"

He pretended to be relaxed and said, "If you run away, what will happen to a mere Yuan Shao? Wait until next spring, and we will attack Yi City in one go."

Zhao Yun and Gao Lan both knew that it was impossible to catch up with Yuan Shao, and the wind and snow became stronger, so they had no choice but to retreat.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yan immediately ordered, "Raised by a group of little maids! This is all my fault, how can they rob it! Chase me, even if the horse runs to death, I have to catch up! We must stop that group of people!"

"If you kidnap me to surrender, you will definitely be tolerated by Lü Bu and Yuan Xi! Son of Heaven was held hostage by these two!"

But his mouth was blocked by the footcloth, so he could only make muffled sounds.

The atmosphere was tense for a while.

When a group of Horse Bandits heard that their credit was about to be taken away, their eyes turned red. Everyone followed Zhang Yan and chased them in the direction where Qu Yi and others were escaping!

While talking, he helped Yuan Shao get on the horse.

Jia Xu has a look of regret on his face.

Qu Yi was shocked when he heard this, and then said angrily, "How outrageous! As Deputy General, a subordinate of Lord, you actually dare to betray the master Surrender to the Enemy? And you dare to speak so brazenly that I will betray the master with you!"

Not long after Qu Yi and the others left, Zhang Yan led three thousand Black Mountain Army Elite Cavalry to rush over and found the bodies of Lü Xiang and others.

"Go up to him and convince him to apologize to Son of Heaven together!"

Jiang Qi glanced at him, his face changing, but he quickly made a decision in his heart and said firmly, "We will meet him!"

Liu Xie smiled gently and helped them stand up.

Now that the two sides are facing each other, it's too late to escape.

At this moment, Yuan Shao on the horse somehow spit out the smelly cloth in his mouth and shouted to Qu Yi with all his strength, "Don't listen to his nonsense!"

My heart couldn't help but be filled with frustration.

He actually stated his plan directly.

Qu Yi waved his hand when he saw this, and the Soldierss behind him immediately rushed forward under the leadership of his Personal Guard, slaughtering all the two hundred or so people, leaving no one behind!

"Quickly kill these two traitors!"

Could it be that Zhao Yun was beheaded?

"Then, what should we do now?"

Everyone was amazed when they saw this.

He heard that Yuan Shao was fleeing to Yicheng, so he counted the three thousand most elite horse bandits in the mountains... No, the elite cavalry wanted to come over and intercept Yuan Shao.

"Aren't these Yuan Shao's troops? Could it be that Yuan Shao has been captured by people sent by Your Majesty?"

"And winter has arrived. Guo Yuan will be able to escape from Bing Province soon. There are still Gao Gan's soldiers and horses, so it is not difficult to counterattack Ji Province!"

When the two parties are fighting, unless a group of armored Soldierss kill a group of unarmed Displaced Peoples wearing little armor, there will be no casualties.

Reinforcements? Kill Zhao Yun? Recapture Cities?

What is this all about?

But they had been following Qu Yi for a long time, and they soon understood what Qu Yi meant. After looking at each other, they all chose to remain silent.

So he was very worried that Qu Yi would choose to betray again.

"Play with your life!"

Zhao Yun and Gao Lan both bowed their heads and remained silent. Their hearts were filled with self-blame and they felt that they were responsible for the great trust Son of Heaven had placed in them.

"What did you do to Lord!"

Although Liu Xie was also disappointed, he also knew that Zhao Yun and Gao Lan had tried their best. After all, Yuan Shao took nearly 5,000 troops with him when he escaped, so he did not blame them too much.

Naturally, silence should be more thorough.

What a disaster!

Jiang Qi, on the other hand, still seemed calm. Even Spear, who was facing Qu Yi, showed no fear and said frankly, "We are at the end of our rope and are about to capture Yuan Shao and surrender to Son of Heaven."

Zhang Yan frowned and couldn't help but think about it.

"Wait!"

As he gave the order, many Soldierss behind him immediately rushed forward, surrounding the group, and were about to take action.

Unexpectedly, even if I hurry up and hurry up, I will still be a step too late.

Lecheng County, Prefect's Residence.

So after hearing what Jiang Qi said, he had the idea of defecting, because there was really no need to hang himself on the tree Yuan Shao.

The most important point is that without Guo Yuan's troops, how could Qu Yi survive in the hands of Zhao Yun?

"They want to take Yuan Shao hostage and surrender!"

Thinking of this, Qu Yi shouted coldly at Lü Xiang's group of Soldiers: "Put down your weapons and surrender, and I will spare your life!"

On top of the horses.

"Guo Yuan is here?!"

Compared with them, if Qu Yi, who is Great General, can really take Yuan Shao to vote for Son of Heaven, the treatment he will receive will definitely be far better than them.

"This is the only way!"

"Could it be internal strife?"

Yuan Shao didn't regard him as a confidant. He had made great contributions many times and the rewards he received were not big, yet Yuan Shao still disliked him for taking credit and being arrogant.

"If the general continues to serve him, sooner or later he will send him to die again!"

Yuan Shao's face changed, and he wanted to say something more, but Lü Xiang, who had quick eyes and quick hands, blocked his mouth with a smelly cloth again, so he could only worry.

Jiang Qi can be considered a risk-taker.

Although the credit for capturing Yuan Shao was great, in order to convince Qu Yi to save his life, he had to take the initiative to give up the first credit.

After Qu Yi killed Jiang Qi with one shot, before Lü Xiang could react, he raised his hand and shot him again, giving him a chill!

In an instant, both of them were killed!

Qu Yi looked at their corpses coldly and snorted in his heart, "Confused! How can three people take credit as compared to one person? If I kill you, all the credit will be mine!"

"There is no way we can be his opponent. If he finds out that we plan to rebel against Surrender to the Enemy, we will be dead!"

Soon the army turned back the way it came.

"It's over..."

They only need to complete the interception before the opponent reaches Lecheng County, and the credit will naturally be theirs. They will pretend that they don't know whether to surrender or not!

He made no secret of his dissatisfaction with Zhao Yun and Gao Lan.

"Everyone, get up."

"Besides, I betrayed Han Fu and voted for Yuan Shao before, so what's the harm in betraying him again. Besides, this time it's Son of Heaven who betrayed me, so I don't have to bear the infamy!" Qu Yi felt hot in his heart. Regardless of whether Son of Heaven was held hostage, could he still not reward him for his great achievements?

Qu Yi actually saw the team of Jiang Qi and Lü Xiang from a distance. He was still confused when he didn't see Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao, who was lying on the horseback, also noticed the team appearing in front, as well as Banner of Qu Yi, and suddenly became excited.

Qu Yi delayed Zhao Yun for a long time. When he saw Gao Lan leading his troops to help, he made a decisive decision and abandoned his 2,000 troops and escaped with only some of his troops.

Qu Yi smiled and said, "Lord doesn't know anything. General Guo's reinforcements have arrived. With his help, I killed Zhao Yun, so I came here to look for Lord."

Jiang Qi shouted loudly when he saw this, he turned over and dismounted, dropped the weapon in his hand, and said in a serious tone, "General Qu, I have no intention of being your enemy, why should you do this?"

Only then did Lü Xiang understand Jiang Qi's plan. After hesitating for a moment, he finally led the team to follow Jiang Qi and meet Qu Yi's team.

"Have you forgotten? Qu Yi is a proud man who has been dissatisfied with the rewards given by Yuan Shao many times. If Wen Chou, Chunyu Qiong and Han Meng hadn't died in battle one after another, Yuan Shao would have killed him long ago."

Qu Yi is one of the most powerful generals under Yuan Shao. With the strength of the two of them and the few troops they have, whether they fight or escape, they will be dead ends.

More than two hundred people died on the scene, and they were all soldiers wearing armor. No matter how strong Son of Heaven's army was, no one could be left uninjured.

"That's good."

Lü Xiang was stunned when he heard this. If he went up to meet him, wouldn't he die?

At this moment, a Black Mountain Army Pegasus came to report, "Boss! Yuan Jun's traces were found in front! They are fleeing in the direction of Lecheng County!"

"Yuan Shao has now reached its end. Son of Heaven will wipe it out sooner or later. We will only die if we continue to follow him!"

"Right now, General Guo is leading his troops to attack Lecheng County. It won't be long before Cities is taken back. We don't have to go to Yi City."

"If we let that group of people escape back to Lecheng County with Yuan Shao, our credit will be lost! Any talk of becoming a prince or a general is bullshit!"

Jiang Qi's words can be said to be sincere.

Qu Yi smiled slightly and got on the horse as well.
