Chapter 714 Yuan Shao Commits Suicide, the Hero Ends! [Ask for Monthly Votes]

Outside Nanpi City, the soldiers stopped attacking and sang the popular folk song "Yu Lin Lang" in the Eastern Han Dynasty according to the tune of Runan folk songs.

This scene was very similar to the grand occasion of the Han army singing Chu songs at Gaixia more than 400 years ago.

Huang Zhong rode to Yuwen Chengdu and asked with a bow:

"General Yuwen, the tune of this "Yu Lin Lang" sounds strange. Is it the singing style in Runan?"

Yuwen Chengdu nodded:

"Not many people in the army know the folk songs of Runan. In order to avoid any mistakes, I burned incense and asked Zhang Tianshi for help. He went against the long river of time and came to a riverside in Runan when Yuan Shao was a child. He listened to them singing for an afternoon. In addition to this "Yu Lin Lang", there are also "Jiangnan", "Moshang Sang", "Emperor Huan's First Children's Song" and so on. These songs are all included in the Yuefu Collection."

After speaking, Yuwen Chengdu also took out his mobile phone and played the video sent by Zhang Daoling via Bluetooth.

In the video, Yuan Shao, who was only five or six years old, sang songs with a group of children wearing patched clothes. The clear children's voices were clear and melodious. Huang couldn't help but think of Xu'er when she was a child. She seemed to be wearing patched clothes and running around every day.

The most unforgettable childhood is carefree, innocent, and wonderful!

Cao Xing, who came to join in the fun, heard the "Children's Song of Emperor Huan's Beginning of the World" and felt that this song should be more touching to Yuan Shao:

"Wheat is green and barley is withered, who should be the wife and mother-in-law. Where is the father-in-law in the west to fight the Hu. The official bought horses, and you prepared a car. Please play the Hu for you... Why didn't the general let the soldiers sing this song?"

Xun You said:

"This is a ballad reflecting on war. It's fine for children to sing it. If the soldiers are asked to sing it, it may have a counterproductive effect."

Although this nursery rhyme is not long, it can reflect reality. The wheat is ripe, but only women and mothers-in-law are harvesting wheat. Someone asked where the man in the family was, and the answer was that he went to the western border to fight the Hu people.

If the soldiers sang this kind of song, there might be deserters who wanted to go home that night.

So to be safe, "Yu Lin Lang" was more appropriate. Although it was a ballad that denounced officers for molesting women, it was catchy and more suitable for children to sing.

Yuwen Chengdu saw Song Xian coming and handed over his mobile phone:

"Connect my mobile phone to the big speaker of the drone, then fly over Yuan Shao's head and play this video repeatedly to ensure that Yuan Shao can hear the sound clearly."

"Okay, General, I'll do it right away."

Soon, a large drone with an outdoor loudspeaker flew into the city, locked onto Yuan Shao who was sitting in the yard crying, and started playing music.

Yuan Shao, who was missing his childhood, shuddered all over and couldn't help raising his head.

He heard his own voice, that carefree afternoon, sitting by the river with his friends, eating lotus pods, singing ballads, and the naughty friends would deliberately put their feet in the water to stir up a splash of water.

Yuan Shao lay on the steps with his head up, as if he had been hit by a huge hammer. At this moment, fame, wealth, and family honor and disgrace were all thrown behind him.

Seeing this, Yuan Xi hurriedly helped Yuan Shao up and kept comforting him:

"Father, we haven't lost yet. Maybe your uncle's army has already reached ten miles away. Please cheer up, father!"

Yuan Shao laughed immediately after hearing this:

"Anyone in the world can come to save me, but Yuan Gonglu is always looking forward to my death... Did Xier hear it? This laughter just now is the voice of your father when he was a child. It is said that the court has the help of gods. Today I have finally seen it. It's ridiculous that I still want to realize the imperial plan. It's really a sitting well and watching the sky!"

At this point, he coughed heavily, as if his throat was sealed with a stone. He coughed very hard until he spit out a large pool of blood, and then he felt that his breath was smooth.

Yuan Xi was scared and kept patting Yuan Shao's back.

Yuan Shao took a few breaths and said to Yuan Xi weakly:

"Go, call them all over, I have something to say."

Yuan Xi nodded and strode out.

Yuan Shao struggled to sit up, looked up at the drone that kept playing nursery rhymes, straightened his clothes, bowed to the drone, then faced the direction of Chang'an, lifted his clothes and knelt down, and bowed three times and nine times solemnly.

After doing this, Yuan Xi had led Ju Su and the others to the gate.

Yuan Shao stood up and bowed to everyone calmly.

Just when everyone thought that the lord had some unexpected tricks, Yuan Shao drew out the sword hanging from his waist and wiped his neck without hesitation.

Instantly, the carotid artery was cut and blood spurted out like a shower.

"Father!!!"

Yuan Xi cried and rushed over, but it was too late. The blood splashing everywhere made Yuan Shao lose consciousness. He first fainted and then soon lost his heartbeat.

"Lord!!!!"

Ju Shou and others also rushed over. They didn't expect that Yuan Shao, who had noble aspirations and an extraordinary background, would actually raise his sword and commit suicide.

You know, this was the way he used to despise the most!

There were cries in the yard. Everyone had imagined countless endings, but never thought that Lord Yuan would make this choice.

Outside the city, Cao Xing, Song Xian, Huang Zhong, Xun You and others were silent as they watched Yuan Shao fall in a pool of blood from the drone surveillance screen.

No matter what impression and opinion they had of Yuan Shao in the past, they all felt that he was quite manly at this moment.

Yuwen Chengdu complained:

"This guy is just like in the original book. He dies when he says he will, and doesn't care about his own affairs after death."

In the original work, Yuan Shao actually still occupied the entire north after the Battle of Guandu, but he failed to recover. He passed away before he could arrange a successor, leaving his three sons trapped in internal strife.

But now there is no need to worry about the fighting between the sons, because the whole family is in Nanpi County and cannot cause any trouble.

Xun You said:

"Give me the order, let all battalions return to their own formations. Yuan Shao is dead, and the people in the city will soon open their doors and surrender."

The rightful owner has already raised his sword and killed himself, so what a slap in the face!

What's more, most of Yuan Shao's men are ready to surrender. Surrendering now is just a matter of course.

Yuwen Chengdu raised his wrist, looked at the time on his tactical watch, picked up the walkie-talkie, and tuned directly to channel 111 where Liu Xie was:

"Your Majesty, we played Runan songs in the city. After hearing this, Yuan Shao kowtowed in the direction of Chang'an and then committed suicide with his sword."

Upon hearing the news of Yuan Shao's death, Liu Xie replied:

"After taking over Nanpi County, don't commit any crimes and let the Yuan clan collect Yuan Shao's body and bury it underground."

"yes!"

In the palace, Liu Xie put down the walkie-talkie, said hello to Lu Zhi, and hurried to the real world. He happened to meet Li Yu who had just returned from purchasing various tanks:

"Mr. Qi, Yuan Shao just committed suicide in Nanpi County, and the war in Hebei is about to end."

Li Yu was stunned, but he didn't expect that Yuan Shao was quite a bachelor.

Is this going to follow Gongsun Zan's path and leave Gongsun Zan with no way to go?

he asked:

"What are your plans next?"

Liu Xie cupped his hands and said:

"The students will let Senior Brother Yuwen attack Youzhou to calm down the war in the north as soon as possible, and assign a large army to guard Beiping County on the right side of Yuyang Shanggu all year round to resist the aliens. When the south is unified, they will send their troops north and start to attack Liaodong."

Li Yu took the water cup, drank a glass of mineral water in front of the automatic water machine, and then asked:

"Who do you plan to appoint as the governor of Jizhou?"

Liu Xie replied:

"The governor of Lujiang, Lu Kang. He has enough qualifications to serve as the governor of a state. Now Jiangdong is in chaos. It is just right to transfer the leader of the Lu family to the north to prevent the Lu family from becoming one of the four major families in Jiangdong again."

This move is quite unique. It can not only prevent the Lu family from becoming stronger and bigger, but also promote Lu Kang from the prefect to the governor of the prosperous land in the north. Everyone will agree with it.

Li Yu felt that Liu Xie's arrangement was very reasonable. The position of Lujiang Prefect must be arranged well, otherwise it would be easy for Yuan Shu to steal his home.

Although this guy in the original novel is a big idiot, he does a lot of stealing.

Liu Xie said:

"I plan to arrange Taiyuan County Governor Shi Xunyan to serve as the governor. Now that Taiyuan County is on the right track, there is no need for two county governor-level figures to be in charge. Moreover, Xunyan has many strategies and is very low-key. He is in charge of Lujiang and can quietly impose restrictions. The Jiangdong family can also implement court policies very well. "

This arrangement is really good.

Since the Xun family joined Chang'an, they have continued to make contributions in their respective fields, but they have not received significant promotions. There may be opinions within the Xun family.

Now that Xun Yan is promoted to the county governor, the Xun family will have an additional high-ranking official worth two thousand dan, which can be regarded as the top spot in the Yingchuan family, and at the same time it can eliminate the noise within the Xun family.

At noon, Li Yu and Xiu He made cold skin at the B&B.

Although the temperature has been cooling down recently, Liangpi is not only eaten cold, it can be fried, rolled and eaten with hot dishes, or even made into hot soup Liangpi with soup. Anyway, as long as you want to, you can eat whatever you want.

Liu Xie ate two pieces of pork head rolled in cold skin and a bowl of fried cold skin before bidding farewell to Li Yu and preparing to return to the world in the book.

Li Yu took out the Kui beef breast made by Jin Ling Virgin and asked Liu Xie to take it over there and share a portion with everyone:

"If you like it, you can ask Fengshen to make more next time."

"Thank you sir!"

As soon as Liu Xie returned to the palace, he received the news of the restoration of Nanpi County:

"Less than an hour after Yuan Shao's death, the defenders in the city opened the city gates, raised white flags and went out of the city to surrender. Yuan's family committed suicide. Several counselors also committed suicide to follow Yuan Shao. Guo Tu refused to commit suicide and was pushed down from the tower by Jushou. They were all shattered to pieces... Yuan Shao's suicide behavior caused the remaining people to fall into a state of madness. "

Guo Jia's report surprised Liu Xie:

"How could a perfectly good siege turn into mass suicide?"

Xun Yu analyzed:

"Yuan Shao's people have always been divided into two factions. Everyone knows this well. Usually everyone is laughing and joking and not knowing each other. Now Yuan Shao suddenly committed suicide in front of everyone. The Hebei counselors represented by Ju Shou will naturally blame him. Guo Tu engaged in internal fighting regardless of the occasion, forcing his lord to commit suicide. "

When Yuan Shao was around, everyone could tolerate each other for the sake of the country, but now that Yuan Shao has committed suicide, Jushuo and the others can't tolerate it anymore.

First kill the culprit Guo Tu, and then commit suicide.

Don't you, bitch, like to fight within yourself? Come, let's continue fighting in the underworld.

However, this idea would eventually come to nothing, because as soon as everyone committed suicide and came to the underworld, Guo Tu, who liked to stir up troubles, was sent to the Tongue-pulling Prison, which is the destination of women with long tongues.

As for Jushou, he was spotted by Huo Qubing, who came back from the Western underworld to report on his work. Without any explanation, he was transferred to his own army and served as military governor.

The Jizhou counselor, who had never shown his true talents in the world of the underworld, joined the army of the champion in a confused way.

In Nanpi County, Yuwen Chengdu looked at the bodies of Yuan Shao's family, waved and said:

"Let's find a place to bury him outside the city. Build a small tomb. It doesn't need to be too big. Just make it quieter. Let the disciples and former officials of the Yuan family have a place to cry."

As soon as he finished his instructions, there was a cry of injustice outside.

Yuwen Chengdu walked to the door and saw a Confucian scholar being escorted by several soldiers and about to rush to the execution ground.

Seeing Yuwen Chengdu, the Confucian scholar quickly saluted:

"General, spare your life. Those things were written by Yuan Shao under pressure from the villain. It was not my intention. Please tell me, General!"

Yuwen Chengdu was a little confused:

"Who are you?"

"My Excellency, Chen Lin, is from the Sheyang family in Guangling. I am good friends with Zhang Zhao from Pengcheng and Wang Lang of Donghai. Please be kind to the general and spare my life. I know I was wrong!"

Yu Wencheng didn't expect that this was the famous litterateur Chen Lin.

This image of begging for mercy is really shocking.

Yuan Shao had many subordinates, but Chen Lin was the only one who wrote articles criticizing Liu Xie.

Yuwen Chengdu said calmly:

"You didn't know you were wrong, you just knew you were going to die."

After speaking, he waved to the soldiers and asked them to continue, and then ignored these matters.

Writing an article to slander the grandson of Empress Nuwa and Empress Houtu was a sin that Yuwen Chengdu did not dare to spare, nor did he intend to spare.

Many things in this world cannot be settled by saying sorry and saying I was wrong.

If you have the courage to do bad things, you must have the courage to bear the consequences. Otherwise, no matter how good your literary talent is and how emotional your essay is, it will be in vain.

Not far away, Xun You said to Huang Zhong, Cao Xing and other generals:

"This is the advantage of being strong. If we are not strong enough, we will have to sell horse bones for a thousand dollars at this time to forgive Chen Lin's sins and set an example for all the soldiers who surrendered... But there is no need now. Everything is done business. If you don't obey, you will be killed. ”

The reason why I say this is not only because it has recruited enough talents in the past two years, but most importantly, the establishment of Chang'an University indicates that Dahan's talent training mechanism is on the right track.

The graduates in the future will all be disciples of the Emperor. Relatively speaking, they are the Emperor's loyal supporters and the core force of the Empire.

In the next few days, the army went through the people in the city and found out many soldiers pretending to be ordinary people, including Liu Yu's son Liu He. After being caught, he tried to forge a false name to get through, and was reported by several prisoners. .

Yuwen Chengdu was too lazy to interrogate, and did not want to use him to threaten Liu Yu. It seemed that the court was unable to win, so he directly asked the military executioner to execute him and buried him next to Yuan Shao's tomb.

Since you father and son like Yuan Shao so much, then let him be buried with him.

After handling this matter, the army held a grievance meeting in the city and uncovered many bad apples. As for the captives who surrendered, they followed the old rules and started building roads and cultivating fields on the spot to benefit the people.

Yuwen Chengdu left a force of troops to guard the prisoners and maintain law and order. When the new county governor arrived, he, Xun You, Huang Zhong and others led the main force all the way north to attack the hinterland of Youzhou from Fanyang and Quanzhou.

The Quanzhou here is not the famous cultural city in Fujian, but an ancient place name in the Wuqing area of ​​Tianjin. Entering Youzhou from this location, there is Guangyang County to the left, Beiping County to the right, and Yuyang County to the north. It is a A typical strategic location, as long as this county is occupied, it can threaten the entire Youzhou.

It is said that Liu Yu mobilized 100,000 soldiers and horses to line up in Fanyang, including many foreign soldiers and horses, preparing to fight to the death with the imperial army.

After receiving this information, Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, and then issued an order:

"After catching Liu Yu, kill everyone in his family!"

Not only do you engage in internal fighting, but you actually drag foreigners against the imperial court. Keeping such a clan is a waste of air and food.

When the Battle of Youzhou is about to break out, the oil base is a different story.

"Lao Zhang, please take it easy. My brother Yu spent a lot of money to buy this."

Zhang Daoling floated in the air, placed a huge oil tank in a deep pit in the oil base, and then changed the terrain, turning the rocks underneath into sand, and firmly wrapped the oil tank.

After putting them in place, Sun Facai led a group of workers to install the oil pipelines and oil pumps.

While he was busy, he asked Zhuge Liang:

"Have the four wives of Brother Yu ever quarreled?"

"No, the relationship between the several mistresses is very harmonious, especially the second mistress, who is the favorite of the whole family, and the third mistress, who is everyone's happy fruit... Why do you ask, Mr. Sun?"

Sun Facai took a sip of iced Coke:

"Nothing, I just think that Brother Yu is not honest at all. He claims that he is straight every day, but then he plays tricks. I hate this kind of hypocritical man the most."

While he was criticizing, Zhuge Liang said:

"The master's wife bought a lot of new clothes and toys for Xiao Mao'er. She also said that she would buy him a children's car on his first birthday..."

After hearing this, Sun Facai immediately changed his mind:

"I'm just saying that Brother Yu is not simple. He found such a good woman as my sister-in-law. He definitely saved the Milky Way in his previous life... No, maybe he saved the high-latitude world. Otherwise, why would so many good things happen to him? I, a congenital protagonist whose parents passed away long ago, have become a foil!"

Zhuge Liang was about to say that it might have something to do with appearance, but he felt that he couldn't hit Teacher Sun too much, so he had to change the topic:

"Teacher Sun seems to be able to go to the real world soon again. Should he go back by himself this time, or will he take the whole family back?"

Sun Facai can return to the real world once a year. It used to be a year in the real world, but was later changed by Dundun to a year in the book world.

Sun Facai said:

"Let Brother Yu discuss it with Brother Dao. I am the one bringing up the whole family. I can live here for one day. One hour is not enough for the whole family to visit relatives... If it doesn't work, I will take over the relationship with Aunt Nuwa. Then I will live there. I stayed at the B&B and fed Brother Dao grain rice mixed with sand every day!”

Zhuge Liang came to the real world and deliberately told Sun Facai's request in front of Brother Dao.

After some bargaining with Brother Dao, Li Yu extended the time for Sun Facai to come to the real world to one day and one night:

[Length of stay: twenty-four hours]
