General Geng Ji looked at Liu Xie, his face full of disappointment at this moment.
It’s now that you think of asking Shouchun Jiangdong’s army for help!
Six days ago, I let you go!
You don't go!
Said to consider it!
As soon as I think about it, I think about it now, the army is approaching!
If I were the Marquis of Jiangdong Wu, I wouldn’t come either!
Although he said this, Geng Ji still suppressed his anger and said patiently: "I have sent my eldest son to go there in person, but there is no response yet. I should-"
Geng Ji sighed and said, "You don't want to come."
Liu Xie said anxiously: "I am the emperor, and he, Lu Yi, is a minister of the Han Dynasty. It is his duty to help King Qin!"
Geng Ji and Kong Rong looked at each other, but neither responded.
In today's world, except Cao Cao before, who cares whether he is the emperor or not?
The emperor has long existed in name only.
Geng Ji looked at the army outside the city and said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, no one can be relied on now. We can only rely on ourselves."
"If we really can't defend the city today, I will all live and die with the city."
"Your Majesty, as the emperor, you cannot be humiliated."
"By then——"
Geng Ji did not continue.
But this already made Liu Xie shudder.
Liu Xie looked at the densely packed army outside the city and said in a trembling voice: "If, if we open the city and surrender, will Yuan Shao kill me?"
Geng Ji: "."
Kong Rong: "."
When Liu Xie saw that all the generals on the city wall were looking over, he forced a smile.
The group of people waited on the city wall for nearly half an hour.
The army outside the city has just been assembled.
Ten square formations.
At a glance, you can't see the end at all.
Moreover, the military appearance is extremely strict.
There was not a single noise among the hundreds of thousands of troops.
Only the war horses snorted and made some noise.
Compared with the army outside the city, there are more than 20,000 soldiers on the city wall. However, these soldiers were all improvised from tribes of various families.
I have no experience in war at all.
At this moment, looking at the army outside the city, many people almost fainted from fear.
Although the people below the city did not see the scene outside the city, looking at the ashen faces of the soldiers on the city wall, these people also judged that the situation was extremely dangerous, and they all murmured in low voices.
Many old people shed tears there.
Some women even began to cry softly there.
If there were no soldiers at their side to supervise, they would have burst into tears.
After the army gathered outside the city, the sound of horse hooves sounded in the distance.
I saw dozens of soldiers riding war horses, surrounded by a chariot, coming slowly.
On the chariot, a middle-aged man wearing bright armor and a high-spirited look looked at the city wall, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
It was Yuan Shao, the shepherd of Jizhou.
Seeing the trembling looks of the defenders on the city wall, Yuan Shao could not suppress the excitement on his face.
Attack the city today and capture the emperor.
The big man is dead!
As for the emperor.
There will be someone among the rebels to deal with it later.
He has already arranged the manpower.
Today, the world no longer needs this great emperor.
He, Yuan Shao, is the future emperor!
Thinking of what Tian Feng and Ju Shou said before, Yuan Shao's brows rose slightly.
Without you.
Don't do what you say.
I, Yuan Shao, am still the lord of the world!
I, Yuan Shao, am the current trend in the world!
The chariot carried Yuan Shao to the edge of the moat and stopped.
The dozens of soldiers in front of the chariot separated and made way for Yuan Shao to see above the city wall.
Yuan Shao looked up at Liu Xie, Geng Ji, Kong Rong and others on the city wall, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Yuan Shao, has met you!"
Geng Ji, Kong Rong and others moved out of the way, allowing Liu Xie to come to the front.
Liu Xie looked down at Yuan Shao on the chariot, a little frightened.
He looked at Geng Ji and Kong Rong helplessly.
Seeing this, Geng Ji sighed, stepped forward quickly, drew his sword, pointed it at Yuan Shao and said: "Yuan Shao, you have lived on Han's salary and enjoyed the country's favor for generations, but now you are leading troops to rebel. How can I face you?" Ancestors?"
Yuan Shao sneered and didn't even respond to Geng Ji. Instead, he said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, I am here just to protect you!"
"There are too many traitors and traitors around you. They need to be eliminated before you can be clear."
"Open the city gate immediately and let the ministers and others enter the city."
"Otherwise, I will have no choice but to offend this big man."
"After the city is destroyed and the treacherous ministers and traitors are eliminated, I will bear the thorn and apologize to Your Majesty again."
Geng Ji scolded: "Retreat quickly, Yuan Shao!"
Yuan Shao laughed.
Seeing that Liu Xie didn't dare to speak, Yuan Shao slowly pulled out the sword from his waist and said with narrowed eyes: "All the soldiers in the army, in order to protect your majesty and to eliminate the traitors and traitors, do we want to fight?"
"Fight!" Hundreds of thousands of soldiers roared in unison.
"war!"
"war!"
The deafening sound shook the whole world.
Some of the soldiers on the city wall even fainted.
Geng Ji, Kong Rong and others looked extremely ugly.
Sure enough, they were just members of major families who had never seen the world and couldn't bear even this little pressure.
Liu Xie was so frightened that his lips were trembling slightly.
However, he could barely hold on.
Scenes flashed through his mind.
When he was still the king of Chenliu, Dong Zhuo rushed to his side with thousands of troops.
At that time, he and all the civil and military officials were held hostage everywhere by Li Jue and Guo Si.
It seemed that it was really only when he faced Cao Cao that Cao Cao gave him a certain amount of respect.
Although, he is still powerless.
However, Cao Cao gave him all the basic etiquette.
Yuan Shao listened to the uniform roars from all directions and closed his eyes, enjoying it very much.
After a while, Yuan Shao put down his sword.
The uniform roars fell silent instantly.
Yuan Shao looked up at the frightened defenders on the city wall, with a hint of narrowness and cruelty on his face, and loudly said: "The horn sounds, attack!"
Outside Xudu City, flag bearers kept waving flags.
The solemn trumpet sound resounded across the sky.
As the horn sounded, the soldiers of the first two phalanxes instantly rushed towards the moat.
The ladder was quickly set up on the moat.
Countless soldiers carried the siege ladder across the moat like a tide and put the siege ladder up the city wall.
Arrow towers and catapults slowly pushed across the moat.
On the arrow tower, archers kept firing arrows at the defenders on the city wall.
Beside the catapult, soldiers kept placing stones on the wooden frame.
As dozens of soldiers worked together, more than thirty catapults continued to throw stones at the city wall.
Arrows and stones all over the sky fell around the city wall.
Screams came and went.
The defenders on the city wall were scurrying away with their heads in their hands!
Geng Ji looked at the chaos of the defenders and the countless enemy soldiers climbing up the siege ladder, and his breathing stopped.
Asking the soldiers to protect the emperor Liu Xie, Geng Ji rushed towards the defenders who were scurrying about with their heads in their hands and killed dozens of them, but still could not stop the chaos.
The catapult and arrow tower attacks stopped.
Yuan Shao's soldiers had already climbed up the city wall along the siege ladder.
On the city wall, the sounds of fighting continued one after another.
The defenders were retreating steadily, unable to resist!
Emperor Liu Xie was protected by Kong Rong and others as he left the city wall and ran towards the palace.
The people below the city who helped defend the city fled wildly in all directions.
Some old men and women were knocked to the ground and were trampled under their feet by the crowd behind them before they could get up.
Screams.
Crying and howling.
Connected into one piece.
Yuan Shao stood outside the city, looking at such a one-sided scene on the city wall, and couldn't help laughing loudly.
This is my, Yuan Shao’s general trend!
Unstoppable!
Soon, the city gate was opened from the inside.
Liu Bei and Zhang He led their cavalry directly into the city.
There was fighting everywhere.
There were corpses everywhere.
Blood flowed like a river.
The people who fled into the house and wanted to hide had not had time to breathe a sigh of relief when the door of the house was knocked open.
The girl's screams and the old man's knees begging for mercy could be heard all the time.
royal palace.
General Geng Ji and Zhennan General Kong Rong led a group of soldiers to arrive.
At the entrance of the main hall of the palace, a group of civil servants and generals watched in horror as they surrounded Liu Xie.
Listening to the sounds of fighting and screams from all directions, the legs and feet of these civil servants and generals became weak.
They thought of the scene when Dong Zhuo, Li Jue, Guo Si and others entered the city.
In the palace, the maids and eunuchs cried one by one.
Liu Xie was about to escape into the palace hall.
But seeing all the civil and military officials coming out, each one looking desperate, Liu Xie's footsteps slowly stopped.
He thought of Dong Zhuo.
He thought of Wang Yun.
He thought of Li Jue and Guo Si.
He thought of Cao Cao.
He thought of Xun Yu.
These are usually loyal ministers.
These ministers who usually care about the world and give advice.
At this time, he seemed so pitiful and humble.
There is no difference between them and the ordinary people fleeing on the street.
Liu Xie turned around and looked at General Geng Ji and Zhennan General Kong Rong who were following him. He forced out a miserable smile and said, "I am really helpless."
Geng Ji lowered his head.
Kong Rong closed his eyes.
Behind them, all the soldiers shed tears.
Liu Xie was trembling all over, looked at the sky, and said in a trembling voice: "My ancestors, I have destroyed this country that has been passed down for more than 400 years! I have destroyed it!"
When Geng Ji heard what Liu Xie said, he raised his head, with tears rolling down his face. He drew his sword and said, "Your Majesty, the strength of the great man is exhausted, and you and I are both sinners! You go first, and I will arrive later. After going to hell, you and I will confess our sins to our ancestors again!"
After saying that, a sword pierced Liu Xie's abdomen.
At the entrance of the main hall, the cultural relic officials fell to their knees one after another as they watched this scene.
"Oh my god, my big man died like this!"
"My great Han Dynasty, which lasted for more than 400 years, perished at our hands!"
"His Majesty!"
Liu Xie slowly lowered his head, looked at Geng Ji's sword piercing his abdomen, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something.
But in the end, he didn't say it.
As Geng Ji pulled out his sword, Liu Xie fell straight backwards.
When Geng Ji saw this, he smeared his sword on his neck and fell at Liu Xie's feet.
Behind him, all the soldiers looked around, either wailing or laughing crazily. In the end, they all raised their swords and fell in a pool of blood.
Kong Rong looked at the corpses on the ground, pulled out his sword, and his eyes slowly shifted from the cold light of the sword.
He thought that when he was prime minister in Beihai, he had an aide named Zuo Chengzu.
Zuo Chengzu once persuaded him to surrender to Cao Cao or Yuan Shao. At first, he killed Zuo Chengzu's whole family on the grounds that he was causing trouble to Chao Gang.
The scene where the other party cursed himself as a worthless rotten scholar before he died was still vivid in my mind.
Kong Rong put the sword on his neck and sighed: "Chengzu, I misunderstood you. I will go to the underworld today to apologize to you!"
After saying that, he wiped it down with his sword.
