When Xin Ping turned his head to look, it was a matchmaking, and he couldn't help asking: "Zhengnan, why don't you go to the east gate to guard?"
The trial partner sneered: "The lord suspected that you would betray you, and ordered a special trial to watch your every move. As expected, now that you have even opened the city gate, what else can you say?"
It turned out that Feng Ji was ordered to monitor Xin Ping, but he kept his eyes on him, and quietly ran to the east gate, under the guise of Yuan Shao's order, to let the reviewer monitor Xin Ping. Although the trial and the Xin family did not have any feasts, he was loyal to Yuan Shao. As long as Xin Ping changed his mind, he would never show mercy or even catch the wind. In this way, Feng Ji can get rid of Xin Ping by the hand of trial and match, but he doesn't have to spend any effort.
Although these people under Yuan Shao all have some abilities, they are just not in agreement with each other. If they put a lot of energy into them, failure is inevitable.
Xin Ping heard that Yuan Shao was sent to monitor him for the trial, and he couldn't help but feel chilled, but he said, "Zhengnan, you have misunderstood. These soldiers want to escape, and Xin is waiting to close the city gate."
The judge couldn't help but say, drew the sword and slashed, shouting loudly: "Nonsense! You clearly want to go out of the city to drop the enemy, how can the judge forgive you!"
Xin Ping was unprepared, unable to dodge, and had already hit a sword in his arm. The left and right soldiers hurriedly rescued him and fought with the soldiers brought by the trial. The trial team was small and gradually lost, so he had to retreat to the city while fighting, and the North Gate suddenly became a mess here.
On the Han army's position outside the north gate, Zhang Fei lifted the telescope hanging on his chest and carefully observed the situation at the north gate. He was observing the attack effect of the trebuchet and looking for the opportunity to issue an attack order. Suddenly, many unarmed Yuan Jun soldiers rushed toward this side in the telescope. The gate of the city was wide open, and two teams of men and horses were fighting each other.
Zhang Fei was overjoyed, as soon as he took the rein, he was about to rush over.
Yan Yan hurriedly persuaded: "The general wait a minute, I'm afraid it is Yuan Jun's trick to lure the enemy!"
Zhang Fei laughed and said: "The city gates are wide open. The opportunity is rare in a lifetime. Even if it is a trick to lure the enemy, we must make him swallow the bitter fruit! Just got the news that Yun Chang has already moved south from Liang Qi, and it will be one or two hours When you arrive here, you can't ask him to take the credit. Children, kill with me!"
The Han light cavalry, who had been cruising outside the city, brandished their sabers and swept toward the north gate of Yecheng. Cavalry was not needed to siege the city, but the opening of the north gate gave the Han cavalry a place to be useful.
Those Yuan Jun soldiers who fled outside the city saw the brigade cavalry rushing over, and they knelt to the ground, raising their hands above their heads. However, the cavalry of the Han army didn't even look at them. They galloped past them, and their faces were covered with dust.
At the north gate of Yecheng, the melee continues. Xin Ping was chopped on an arm by the interrogation, and he fainted from the pain on the spot. He has now woken up, and he stopped drinking there, and suddenly he can hear horseshoes behind him. Xin Ping turned around and saw that countless cavalry rushed towards him. It was too late to close the gate of the city. He had to drag his wounded arm and stand in front of the gate with a sword, quite like a man's arm blocking the car.
Zhang Fei took the lead, and when he saw someone blocking him, he couldn't help but yell, and Zhangba's snake spear pierced it like lightning, penetrating Xin Ping's chest into his back. Xin Pingyuan opened his eyes, and red blood poured out from his mouth. Zhang Fei drew a snake spear, and the horse rushed past him. Xin Ping shook for two times, and finally fell to the ground. From start to finish, he didn't even have time to make a scream.
The trial was seen from behind, and then he realized that he had blamed Xin Ping. It was because he had just delayed the time to close the city gate and caused the Han cavalry to rush into the city. The trial stomped annoyedly, then turned and ran into the city. The Han army has entered the city, and such a major event must be reported to Yuan Shao as soon as possible.
In order to avoid the attack of the trebuchets of the Han army, Yuan Shao had just returned to the gate of his general's mansion under the protection of Wen Chou when he heard the news of the loss of the North Gate. Yuan Shao dared not enter the mansion, and walked towards the east gate under the protection of Wen Chou. Although Yuan Shao is indecisive and partial to listening and believing, he also knows that these people are ugly in Chinese, and he is the most loyal to the interrogators.
Good things do not go out, bad things spread for thousands of miles. The news of the loss of the North Gate spread quickly throughout Yecheng like a plague. The Yuan Jun soldiers who had not had much fighting spirit in the first place lost their helmets and abandoned their armor, and fled in all directions.
The news that the Han army entered the city soon reached the prison in Yecheng, and the jailer guarding the prison did not escape. These jailers are different from those Yuan Jun soldiers. They are mostly Yecheng natives, and there are many vicious criminals in the prison. If they escape at this time, those criminals will definitely take the opportunity to escape, and in the end will not only harm the people in the city, but also their own families.
Despite this, the jailers were still panicked and gathered together to discuss. Someone suddenly remembered and said, "Don’t panic, everyone. I heard that General Gao Lan was thrown into jail because he persuaded Yuan Shao to surrender. Why not ask for General Gao? , Maybe General Gao has some contact with the Jingzhou Army, so you can keep everyone safe."
Yu Yi and Gao Lan are locked up in jail, but their family members bring three meals a day. After all, they were once powerful generals under Yuan Shao. Don’t look at the crimes now, they might be re-used by Yuan Shao someday. The jailers are all human beings and take great care of them, allowing their family members to deliver meals directly to the cell. , By the way also brought news of the siege of the Han army.
It was almost noon, and today's food had not been delivered yet, both Yu Yi and Gao Lan faintly felt that something was going on outside. Suddenly, Yu Yi became restless and walked around in the cell. Gao Lan smiled next door: "General Yu, we are all prisoners under the order. It's useless for you to be anxious. Do you still want to go out and work for the original?"
Yu Yi sneered and said: "If you give me another chance, I will definitely not send someone under the fence, but will go to the world by myself!"
Gao Lan shook his head and smiled, "I'm afraid there will never be such an opportunity in the future."
At this time, the head of the cell came with a few jailers, and said, "Congratulations to the two generals. Yuan Shao has been defeated. The Jingzhou Army will soon enter the city. At that time, the two generals will definitely be reused. This general can save our lives."
Gao Lan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, Liu Xin will not embarrass you. It's just that Gao Mou beheaded his general, I'm afraid it will be hard for him to tolerate."
While talking, there was a sudden noisy at the prison door, and a group of soldiers walked in and shouted: "Hurry up and bring Yu Yi and Gao Lan!"
It turned out that Yuan Shao walked towards the east gate under the escort of Wen Chou, and met Feng Ji halfway along the way. After Feng Ji got the news of the loss of the North Gate, he hurried down from the city, wanted to go back to the house to retrieve his family's belongings, and escaped in the chaos, but didn't want to hit Yuan Shao on the road.
Feng Ji was ordered by Yuan Shao but the North Gate was monitoring Xin Ping. He shouldn't have appeared here. He was worried that Yuan Shao was suspicious, and pretended to say: "Master, when his subordinates rushed to the North Gate, the North Gate was lost. The subordinates are worried that the prisoners Yu Yi and Gao Lan will take the opportunity to make trouble, and want to go to prison to persuade them."
Yuan Shao frowned and said, "Here, with Yuan's saber, I went to prison to get the heads of Yu Yi and Gao Lan!"
Seeing that he did not arouse Yuan Shao's suspicion, Feng Ji secretly wiped a cold sweat, but did not dare to go home again, so he had to follow Yuan Shao to the east gate.
In the big jail, all the jailers looked at each other as a group of fierce soldiers rushed in. Suddenly, Gao Lan screamed and rushed out of the cell. Over the past few days, the jailers didn't take care of Gao Lan and Niu Yi very closely. The wooden shackles and fetters were not used, and the prison door was opened just now.
Gao Lan rushed out of the cell, swung his fists, and entered the soldiers, knocking down five or six people in a blink of an eye. Yu Yi also walked out of the cell. At first he didn't understand what Gao Lan was doing. When he saw Yuan Shao's sword in the hands of one of the school lieutenants, he was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to help. Although the number of these soldiers was large, they couldn't stop the two tigers Yue Yi and Gao Lan. In a flash, they were killed and fled in all directions. Even Yuan Shao's sword was dropped.
Yu Yi picked up the sword and turned around and said, "General Gao, even Yuan Shao refuses to allow us. I am afraid Liu Xin will not let us go. You and I will go back as soon as possible!"
Gao Lan shook his head and said, "Yecheng is broken, where can you and I hide?"
Seeing that Gao Lan insisted on staying, Yue Yi no longer persuaded him. He carried Yuan Shao's sword and got out of the prison. The jailers did not dare to stop him and let him go.
At this time, Yecheng was already in great chaos. Following the north gate, the south gate and the west gate also fell one after another. Yuan Shao came all the way to the East Gate under the escort of Wen Chou, but saw a husky man and horse rushing from outside the East Gate. The leader was Zhang Yun with a spear.
At this time, although the Yuan army in Yecheng had as many as 360,000, except for the 60,000 veterans who had passed through the battlefield, the rest were recruits who had just joined the army this year. Those veterans who heard that the city was broken, took off their armors and mixed into the streets and alleys. This was the only way they could save their lives for many years. The 300,000 recruits had never been on the battlefield at all, and most of their hometowns were not in Yecheng. Hearing that the city was broken, they simply opened the gates and fled for their lives. As a result, the Han infantry was not used at all, and the 40,000 light cavalry rushed into the city alone.
Fortunately, there was Wen Chou's guard beside Yuan Shao. Seeing someone blocking him, he shouted, greeted him with a gun, and fought with Zhang Yun. The two guns flew up and down, fighting equally.
Upon seeing this, Feng Ji whispered: "Master, let's get out of the city quickly while General Wen entangles the enemy."
Yuan Shao glanced at Wen Chou in the fierce battle, and rushed over from the side. He wore a golden helmet and golden armor, and he looked very dazzling in the team. The rest of the Han cavalry saw him, knowing that he was an important person, and they killed him. In a blink of an eye, he was surrounded by water.
At this time, more and more Han troops rushed into the city, both cavalry and infantry. The soldiers around Yuan Shao fought less and less. Gradually, only dozens of horses were left to follow, and the situation became critical.
