"General Qu Why don't you come with us?"
Lü Xiang felt extremely regretful when he saw this. He shouldn't have listened to Jiang Qi's nonsense and come closer. If he had escaped earlier, he might not have been able to escape.
Jiang Qi turned around and cursed Yuan Shao angrily, then sped up his words and persuaded Qu Yi: "General Qu! Yuan Shao is narrow-minded and not a wise master!"
Zhao Yun and Gao Lan knelt down to apologize to Liu Xie. Their faces were very heavy, especially Zhao Yun's face was filled with self-blame.
Seeing this, Jiang Qi was very happy and quickly struck the iron while the iron was hot. "No matter whether Son of Heaven is held hostage by Lü Bu or Yuan Xi, as long as the general goes to surrender, they will definitely not treat him badly!"
But when the two men led the team closer, he suddenly discovered that Yuan Shao had been tied up and put on a horse, his mouth was gagged, and he was blinking at him.
"There is hope!"
But Qu Yi's eyes froze when he heard this, and then Spear shook his hand, and actually pierced Jiang Qi's neck!
"Come here! Capture these traitors for me!"
"You..."
"With the ability of a general, if Yuan Shao is captured and surrendered to Son of Heaven, not only will the charges be cleared, but Son of Heaven will also be able to reuse him!"
Zhang Yan has anger in his eyes. The corpses on the ground are proof of internal strife, and the fact that the other party did not run to Yi City but ran to Lecheng County is the best proof!
"Qu Yi General--!"
But who would have thought that Qu Yi could come back alive!
This is completely a dereliction of duty on his part.
He was indeed moved by Jiang Qi's words.
Seeing this, Qu Yi's expression changed instantly. He raised his hand Spear and pointed directly at the leader Jiang Qi, with a rather sharp tone.
Zhang Yan's expression suddenly changed.
Yuan Shao is really worried that Qu Yi will be persuaded by Jiang Qi. He does not trust Qu Yi as much as he trusts Yan Liang, because Qu Yi was once a subordinate of Han Fu and later betrayed Han Fu and took refuge with him.
Qu Yi's words stunned the surrounding soldiers.
But he didn't want to keep Jiang Qi and Lü Xiang to share the credit with him, so he simply killed him.
After walking for a while, Yuan Shao found that the direction was wrong, and asked suspiciously, "Aren't you going to Yi City? Why is this direction going to Lecheng County?"
"And when he retreated before, he knew General Qu that you were no match for Zhao Yun, but he still let you lead the troops to cut off the rear and escape on your own."
"Even a loyal person like Army Supervisor Tian was thrown into prison by him. What is there to follow such a person?"
"It's a pity that Yuan Thief escaped."
"Shameless Old Thief! Shut up!"
Qu Yi will definitely kill them!
He had just seen Qu Yi hesitate, and his heart was half dead. Who knew that Qu Yi would suddenly rise up and kill the two of them!
This gap is the same as going from Underworld to heaven!
Qu Yi's eyes flashed slightly and he said to Yuan Shao, "It should be so...Lord should get on the horse quickly and let's continue on our way."
"Kill--!!"
Since Qu Yi had just killed Lü Xiang and Jiang Qi, Yuan Shao had no doubt at all about what he said.
Zhao Yun has now returned with the Tiger Warriors Army, and with him is Feathered Forest Cavalry led by Gao Lan.
After doing all this, Qu Yi stepped forward to untie Yuan Shao and said, "The general's rescue was late, Lord was frightened."
Main Hall and all the ministers were present. Hearing this, they couldn't help but show a look of regret on their faces, and they all sighed.
Such a bold and ambitious person is worthy of Your Majesty.
Just when Liu Xie was about to say a few words to appease the two of them, Taishi Ci quickly ran into the hall and reported, "Your Majesty! Scouts is here to report. Yuan Shao is leading an army towards Lecheng County!"
Chapter 254 Liu Xie: Benchu, are you okay?
Yuan Shao leads the army... towards Ye City?
Everyone including Liu Xie was stunned.
Because this sentence is not only unpopular, but also evil.
Yuan Shao finally escaped from Lecheng County and got rid of the pursuit of Zhao Yun and Gao Lan. But now you tell me that he has come back again?
"How many people are there in the Yuan Shao army?"
Liu Xie was the first to react, his face darkened slightly, and he felt a little worried.
The war has just ended, and the troops and horses under his command have suffered a lot of losses, and most of the Soldierss are exhausted. If Yuan Shao finds reinforcements and fights back, the situation will be very unoptimistic.
Lecheng County, it is very likely to fall again.
Taishi Ci hesitated for a moment and said with some uncertainty, "About... about four thousand people, and it looks a bit strange."
"Yuan Shao led more than a thousand people in front, followed closely by more than 3,000 people. Banner didn't fight any Banner, and it didn't look like a regular army."
"But they did come for Lecheng County."
After listening to this, Liu Xie looked a little weird, thinking that Taishi Ci had some misunderstanding about the word "big army".
He thought Yuan Shao brought 40,000 people!
But no matter what, Yuan Shao actually dared to bring people back to kill him. Liu Xie naturally would not miss this good opportunity, and immediately gave instructions to Lü Bu, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong:
"Quickly gather all the troops and horses and leave the city to meet the enemy!"
"This time Yuan Shao will never come back!"
No matter what Yuan Shao's plan is, if there are only four thousand people, there is nothing to fear. His army is all in the city!
"No!"
All the generals clasped their fists and accepted the order.
Lecheng County Ten miles away.
Yuan Shao, Qu Yi and others were running away like crazy, while the three thousand Black Mountain Army were chasing after them. The distance between the two sides was only a few hundred steps.
"Are these damn bandits crazy?"
Yuan Shao turned his head and glanced at the red-eyed and fierce-looking Black Mountain Army Horse Bandits behind him, and couldn't help but curse.
He was preparing to go with Qu Yi to join the army of Guo Yuan, but who knew that a group of Horse Bandits suddenly caught up behind him.
Of course he was not unfamiliar with this group of people.
It is Black Mountain Army in the Taihang Mountains!
When he retreated from Ji County and Yi City, these bandits caused him a lot of trouble and gave him a huge headache.
Later, he found an opportunity to kill a group of people and beheaded many people. Black Mountain Army finally calmed down, but now he ran out again!
Where did he offend these guys?
At this time, Qu Yi's face was also a little ugly. He didn't expect Black Mountain Army to run out. The key is that he can't beat him yet.
In the previous battle with Zhao Yun, his physical strength was almost exhausted, and the few troops he had were defeated, not his Elite Troops and Vanguard Camp.
Otherwise, a mere three thousand Horse Bandits would be able to catch his eye?
The tiger falls in Pingyang and is bullied by the dog.
Now he can only choose to run away, otherwise he will be caught up by the Black Mountain Army. They will definitely have to explain this, and his idea of capturing Yuan Shao and claiming credit from Son of Heaven is gone.
Thinking of this, Qu Yi said to Yuan Shao in a deep voice, "Lord, as long as we get to Lecheng County, we will be fine. General Guo's army is there."
"When the time comes, we will destroy this group of Horse Bandits!"
Yuan Shao nodded heavily and twitched the horsewhip harder, hoping to reach Lecheng County quickly and stay safe.
Behind them at this time.
Zhang Yan looked ahead and kept running away. Yuan Shao, who was already close to Lecheng County, was so anxious that he couldn't help but cursed, "Yuan Shao is running to Lecheng County to seek death? Can't you just let me catch him?!"
He originally thought that Yuan Shao's subordinates had betrayed Yuan Shao and captured Yuan Shao to surrender to Son of Heaven. Who knew that Yuan Shao seemed fine and even took the lead in escaping to Lecheng County.
The riding whip in his hand was almost like an afterimage!
He didn't know why this guy was so anxious and rushed over to die. He was going to die anyway, so couldn't he just give him the credit?
If possible, Zhang Yan really wants to kneel down and kowtow to Yuan Shao. The whole Black Mountain Army are waiting for this contribution to make them famous!
But Yuan Shao didn't know what he was thinking. He only felt that Black Mountain Army was here to kill him, and Lecheng County was his only hope for survival.
Both sides chased each other, gradually getting closer to Lecheng County.
"We're here! We're almost there!"
When Yuan Shao saw Lecheng County Cities not far away, he felt excited, but soon he frowned again, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
"General Qu, didn't you say that Guo Yuan is leading troops to attack Lecheng County? Why can't you see his troops?"
Qu Yi said calmly, "I think General Guo has already captured Lecheng County. After all, General Guo has 30,000 troops, and Lü Bu and the others are a group of defeated generals. It is normal for Cities to choose to retreat when he knows he cannot defend himself."
"Is that so?" Yuan Shao was a little suspicious and did not accept this ridiculous explanation, "Then why is the Banner hanging on Lecheng County City Wall or the Great Han Dragon Banner?"
Qu Yi's expression froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal, and replied, "It must have been that the army just entered the city, and they haven't had time to change it yet."
"Lord Look! General Guo's troops are coming out!"
Qu Yi pointed forward in surprise and said.
Yuan Shao squinted his eyes and saw a large number of soldiers and horses pouring out of Lecheng County, heading towards him.
Black Mountain Army, who were pursuing from behind, also saw the troops coming out of the city, and they all slowed down and did not dare to continue the pursuit.
"A bunch of cowards!"
Yuan Shao couldn't help but sneer when he saw this. He finally let go of his worries. He was about to wave to the troops in front, but suddenly realized that something was wrong.
