Xin Ping knelt down in panic and begged Cao Ang to surrender.
After Cao Ang saw Xin Ping kneeling down, he looked at Ju Shou and Shen Pei beside him.
"I wonder if you two are willing to surrender?"
Jushou heard this and snorted coldly: "A loyal minister has nothing to do with the two masters. How can he be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and sells his master for glory? Kill him if you want, no need to say more!"
At this time, Jushou no longer cares about life or death.
For him, as early as when he wanted to stay and give Yuan Shao a break, he had already put his own life and death aside.
Now that he was captured alive, he already regarded himself as a dead person.
After expressing that he would not surrender, Jushou took a deep look at Xin Ping, then closed his eyes without saying a word.
Xiahou Dun, who was on the side, had such a fiery temper that he was immediately unhappy when he saw Ju Shou's appearance.
"You are a prisoner, but you are still pretending to be noble here. Believe it or not, I have made it impossible for you to live or die?"
Xiahou Dun threatened Ju Shou, but the other party turned his head to the side, not even looking at Xiahou Dun.
Looking at Jushou's appearance, Xiahou Dun was so angry that he wanted to kill him with a knife.
At this moment, Cao Ang spoke: "Uncle, calm down."
After hearing this, Xiahou Dun returned to the side and sat down.
Then, Cao Ang looked at Jusue and asked softly: "Mr. Jusue, I would like to ask, the general you just said, the loyal minister does not serve the two masters. Is this loyal minister referring to you?"
Hearing this, Jushou opened his eyes and looked at Cao Ang with a frown.
He didn't know what Cao Ang was going to do, but he nodded and said, "Yes, that's what I meant!"
"Okay! So when you say loyalty, do you mean loyalty to Yuan Shao?" Cao Ang nodded and asked with a slight smile.
"Yes, of course you are loyal to my lord!" Jushou responded with a serious face.
After Cao Ang heard Jushu's response, he chuckled: "As a Han official, you are not loyal to the Han Dynasty, but loyal to Yuan Shao. How does this make sense?"
"Besides, Yuan Shao has always been rebellious and has the ambition to conquer the Central Plains. Isn't it foolish loyalty for you to be loyal to such a traitor?"
"It turns out that the general appreciates your talents and wants to take you under his command. However, after listening to your remarks, the general feels that you are really pedantic."
"Since you want to die, then I, the general, will help you."
Cao Ang said this and waved his hand: "Come here, push Jushou out and behead him."
As Cao Ang finished speaking, two soldiers came in from outside the door and escorted Jushu outside.
Originally, Jushu was already prepared to die.
But what Cao Ang said just now directly shattered his mentality.
As a result, before Jushou could explain, Cao Ang pushed him out of the tent and beheaded him.
Xiahou Dun had long been displeased with Jushou. Seeing that Cao Ang was about to kill Jushou, he jumped out in a hurry and said, "Young general, let the last general go and kill the enemy."
"Okay, then it's time for Uncle Lao."
Cao Ang nodded slightly and signaled Xiahou Dun to go directly.
Xiahou Dun was overjoyed when he heard this. He walked out of the tent directly and went to prison and kill Jushou.
In fact, Jushuo has some talents, but his emotional intelligence is a bit low and he is stubborn.
Cao Ang had known for a long time that Ju Shou would not surrender, so he had no intention of persuading the other party to surrender. He just taunted him and killed a hundred of them.
After Jushou was taken out, Cao Ang looked at the remaining judges and asked lightly.
"Will you surrender?"
The judge shook his head when he heard this and turned to look at Xin Ping: "Am I a seller like Xin Ping who seeks glory?"
Afterwards, Shen Pei continued to taunt: "Xin Ping, if you surrender to Cao Ang here, where will you put your family and your brother?"
"If your brother knows that he has a surrendering brother like you, how will he get along with the Lord?"
Cao Ang couldn't help but look a little strange when he heard Shen Pei's words.
Because before Cao Ang came, the person who surrendered after being captured was Xin Ping's younger brother Xin Pi.
Now because of Cao Ang's intervention, the person arrested became Xin Ping.
Unexpectedly, the two brothers were both surrendering factions.
After Xin Ping was ridiculed by the judge, he felt a little embarrassed on his face, so he opened his mouth to refute.
"What I do is on behalf of the Xin family. All the decisions I make are not for myself, but for the Xin family!"
When the judge heard this, he laughed disdainfully: "After all, you still surrender."
After Shen Pei said this last sarcastic remark, he looked at Cao Ang and said, "I just ask you, Major General, to give me a good time!"
"Okay!" Cao Ang smiled slightly: "The general will help you."
After saying this, Cao Ang waved his hand and asked people to take him out and hand him over to Xiahou Dun to kill him together.
Outside the camp, Xiahou Dun had people kill Jushou, and then he also saw Shenpei.
Xiahou Dun looked at the judge and asked calmly: "Do you have any last words?"
When the judge heard this, he looked around, faced north, raised his head and said loudly: "My lord is in the north, don't let me die facing south!"
After saying this, Shen Pei knelt down directly facing the north and shouted loudly: "Come on, chop off my head!"
When Xiahou Dun saw this, he didn't talk nonsense and directly had the judge cut off.
On the other hand, after Xin Ping surrendered, he naturally knew that Yuan Shao was gone, so he honestly assisted Cao Ang in conquering the counties in southern Jizhou.
…
On the other side, Yuan Shao also met Han Fu on his way out of the siege.
When Han Fu saw Yuan Shao's miserable appearance, he directly led his men to pursue him.
Unexpectedly, in the desperate situation, Yuan Jun burst out with amazing combat power, directly breaking up the defense line established by Han Fu.
Coupled with the late arrival of Yuan Tan, Han Fu was defeated and returned under attack from both sides. Only about 10,000 of his tens of thousands of troops were left.
After Cao Ang stabilized the southern part of Jizhou, he continued to march north. On the way, he also learned about Han Fu's defeat.
"This Han Fu is really useless. He can't even stop Yuan Shao's remaining defeated generals?"
After Xiahou Dun saw this battle report, he complained helplessly.
Hearing this, Guo Jia on the side said: "It is understandable that Yuan Jun was forced to a dead end, and would naturally explode with amazing combat power, highlighting Han Fu's encirclement."
Cao Ang agreed with Guo Jia's statement. After all, this dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, and a rabbit bites people in a hurry, let alone a human.
It's just that Yuan Shao was defeated and fled all the way, which was convenient for Cao Ang.
The road to the north was unobstructed, and he soon had the entire Jizhou in his pocket, except for the southern part of Youzhou.
However, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan could only take their trusted family members and flee to Liaodong.
