Let those Great General subordinates of the princes understand that surrendering to Imperial Court is the right way!
"General Who Pacifies the North!"
Qu Yi was stunned and shocked to the extreme.
He originally thought that if he surrendered with Yuan Shao, the most he could do would be to banish a general with an unknown title. After all, he was guilty of a crime.
But who would have thought that Son of Heaven would actually confer him General Who Pacifies the North. He would never have dared to dream of such a conferment. It can be said that he has reached the sky in one step!
"Thank you Your Majesty! Thank you Your Majesty!"
"I am willing to die for Your Majesty!"
Qu Yi held back the excitement in his heart and kowtowed repeatedly.
Zhang Yan on the side heard that Son of Heaven had given such a reward. He was so jealous that his back teeth almost broke and his eyes were even red.
He killed and injured so many brothers in exchange for General Who Pacifies the North, Official Post and Township Marquis Noble Rank, but Qu Yi betrayed Surrender to the Enemy in the middle of the battle, but got such a big reward!
"This should be my credit!"
Zhang Yan just wants to eat Qu Yi alive.
His County Marquis!
After Liu Xie had someone loosen Qu Yi, he smiled at Zhang Yan and said, "Although this is a misunderstanding, General Who Pacifies the North also deserves credit for taking the initiative to send troops to intercept Yuan Shao."
"Just be promoted to General Who Subdues the North."
Liu Xie promoted Official Post to Zhang Yan by one level, from Pingbei to Zhenbei, which is higher than General Who Pacifies the North of Qu Yi.
"Thank you Your Majesty."
Zhang Yan thanked him somewhat vaguely.
Although he was promoted, he was not happy.
Compared with Official Post, he cares more about Noble Rank.
But everything is based on merit. He doesn't have Capturing Yuan Shao, he only has the merit of interception. This reward is already a gift.
The only one to blame is Qu Yi for taking the credit from him!
Otherwise, with the credit of Capturing Yuan Shao, County Marquis is still not within his grasp!
Zhang Yan became angrier as he thought about it, and gave Qu Yi a hateful look.
He has finally remembered this grudge.
After receiving the reward, the two resigned one after another.
After they left, Liu Xie could no longer hide his happiness and laughed loudly, "Hejian Commandery was recovered and Yuan Shao was captured. This battle can be called a complete victory!"
"Send the order, I will give a banquet to Three Armies Soldiers to celebrate the victory!"
Yuan Shao has always been a big mountain weighing on his head, but now that the mountain has been removed, he feels more relaxed than ever before!
From now on, he will no longer be bound!
Yi City, in prison.
Tian Feng looked outside through the narrow window in Prison Cell. After seeing the falling snowflakes, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's snowing, Hejian Commandery it should be safe."
Although he was in prison, he still paid attention to the situation outside through the news transmitted by Jailers. Naturally, he also knew the news that Hejian Commandery was besieged by Lü Bu's armies.
So this heavy snow undoubtedly came very timely.
When winter comes, the war cannot continue.
Lü Bu's army can only choose to retreat.
"The soldiers and horses defending Hejian Commandery, Lord should have suffered a lot of casualties... but in the end we held on. We just need to wait for the support of the soldiers and horses of Guo Yuan."
"Oh, I wonder when Lord will admit his mistake and let me out so that I can continue to advise him."
"Ahem..."
Tian Feng said to himself and coughed twice.
His face also turned a little pale.
The weather was getting colder and colder. He just hoped that Yuan Shao could return to Yi City quickly and bow his head to him to admit his mistake. Otherwise, with his body and bones, he might die in this prison.
"Army Supervisor! Army Supervisor--!"
A voice full of anxiety came.
Tian Feng looked up and saw Jailers running over in a hurry and said to him in great panic:
"Army Supervisor is not good! There is news from Hejian Commandery that Lecheng County has been breached, General Yan Liang died in battle, and General Qu Yi captured Lord and surrendered!"
"What did you say!"
Tian Feng stood up suddenly, his expression changed drastically.
Lord... Captured?!
Chapter 256 Benchu, you should call me Your Majesty
"Who brought this news back?"
Tian Feng stared at Jailers with sharp eyes and asked.
Jailers replied tremblingly, "Yes, it's a message from Soldiers who escaped. Right now General Zhao and General Sui are asking questions."
The two generals he was talking about were Zhao Rui and Sui Yuanjin, both of whom were unremarkable generals under Yuan Shao.
It's just that the Great General in Yuan Shao's hand has been damaged one after another, and no one can use it anymore, so that this kind of general who was not even ranked a few years ago can now guard Yi City.
Hearing this, Tian Feng did not hesitate and directly ordered, "Open the cell door and take me over to see him!"
At this moment, he no longer cares about the rules and regulations. If this incident is true, then the criticality of the current situation will be beyond his imagination.
He can't stay in jail any longer.
"Yes! Yes!"
Jailers nodded quickly and stepped forward to open Prison Cell.
Before Yan Liang left, he had told him privately that if there was any unsolvable major incident in the city and no one could take charge of the overall situation, he should ask Tian Feng to go out.
That's why he came here.
Tian Feng strode away from Prison Cell, without even having time to change into his prison uniform, and headed all the way to Prefect's Residence under the leadership of Jailers.
At this time, within Prefect's Residence.
Zhao Rui and Sui Yuanjin were asking something from Soldiers, who was wrapped in gauze and looked seriously injured.
Seeing Tian Feng walking into Prefect's Residence, both of them looked shocked. Zhao Rui couldn't help but said, "Army Supervisor Tian? Why are you here?"
Isn't Tian Feng imprisoned?
However, Tian Feng had no time to pay attention to him. His eyes fell on the Famous Scholars soldier and asked in a deep voice, "Which general are you under? Did you bring the news back?"
This Soldiers said quickly, "Reporting to Army Supervisor, I am Horse Archer, a subordinate of General Qu Yi. It was I who brought the news back..."
"Tell me the story from beginning to end!"
Tian Feng said in a stern tone.
Feeling the majesty emanating from Tian Feng, Soldiers was startled and quickly told how Lecheng County was broken, how they escaped, how they were hunted down, including Lü Xiang Jiang Qi's betrayal.
"... After general Qu Yi killed two generals, he captured Lord and went to plead guilty to Son of Heaven. We were also captured, but were released not long after."
"I heard that General Qu Yi received the Son of Heaven reward, so we were asked to return to the general's command. However, I thought this was the behavior of the traitor Surrender to the Enemy, and I was very disdainful of it, so I found an opportunity to escape from the city and rushed back to report the news."
Except for Qu Yi Personal Guard, these ordinary Soldiers had no idea what the situation was. They only knew that they were inexplicably chased all the way to Lecheng County, and then surrendered inexplicably.
However, there are many Soldiers who believe what Yuan Shao says and think that Son of Heaven is being held hostage by Lü Bu and Yuan Xi. Therefore, in their view, it is not Son of Heaven that Qu Yi is demoting, but Rebel.
Tian Feng After listening, his face became extremely ugly.
Anger is rising in my heart!
He could tell that what Horse Archer said was not false, and all the details were correct. That was why he felt angry!
"A group of traitors who betrayed their master Surrender to the Enemy!"
"Not even as good as a Horse Archer!"
Tian Feng was so angry that he cursed. One Horse Archer was disdainful of betraying Surrender to the Enemy, but Qu Yi, Lü Xiang and Jiang Qi, three generals, chose to betray Wealth and Honor!
They even kill each other because they want to take credit!
How ridiculous!
"Army Supervisor Tian, what should we do now? Lord has fallen into the hands of Lü Bu and Traitor, we can't just ignore it!"
Sui Yuanjin said with worry.
Although Tian Feng has been imprisoned and has not been released under the instruction of Yuan Shao, at present, only Tian Feng has the ability and prestige to preside over the overall situation.
Zhao Rui also set his sights on Tian Feng, waiting for him to give him a plan.
"Alas!"
Tian Feng sighed heavily, shook his head and said, "It is impossible to rescue Lord... Get ready, let's evacuate Yi City and go to Bing Province."
"What?"
Zhao Rui and Sui Yuanjin were shocked when they heard this.
They originally thought that Tian Feng would tell us how to save Yuan Shao, but who knew that he actually planned to give up on Yuan Shao and Yi City and run away directly!
After reacting, Zhao Rui immediately said angrily, "Lord is in danger, how can we abandon Lord and abandon the city with our troops and flee?!"
"Is this Army Supervisor Tian's plan?"
Tian Feng said coldly, "Three Thousand Troops, do you think there is any way to rescue Lord from Lecheng County guarded by Tens of Thousands of Troops?"
