Wang Jun had already received the news that the big-eared thief had left. He knew that his chance had finally come.
"Wen Yuan, lead two thousand of the Valiant Cavalry Battalion and ambush outside the south gate of Xu Prefecture. General Gao, you will lead a thousand troops outside the city. The rest of the troops and my personal troops will wait for any changes in Xu Prefecture.”
"Yes!" The generals obeyed.
Only Zhang Fei was left watching from the side in boredom.
Ever since Zhang Fei followed Wang Jun, Wang Jun did not restrict his freedom. He came and went as he pleased.
But who was this person? Naturally, he disdained to escape.
"General Zhang, watch how I defeat this brat!”Wang Jun was unusually confident.
"I hope so," Zhang Fei sneered,"but I've never seen a person who seeks death like you." You dare to fight against 70,000 people with just 5,000 people? I think you're crazy!”
"Crazy? Perhaps, but in this era of cannibalism, that person was not a lunatic!”Wang Jun looked at Zhang Fei with determination.
As long as it was something he wanted, he would definitely get it, no matter the price.
Zhang Fei, who had been a little disdainful just now, heard this.
He didn't know why, but there was a thought in his heart that told him that this person would definitely succeed.
......
Ma Teng saw that D had left and there was an urgent report from the border.
He also returned to Xi Li Province.
On this day, the rebel army of Da Er arrived in Xuzhou, and the governor Che Zhou went out to meet him.
The banquet had just ended when Sun Qian, Mei Zhu, and the others came to pay their respects.
The big-eared thief went home to visit the old and young, while sending people to inquire about Yuan Shu's news.
"Yuan Shu is too extravagant. Liu Xun and Zhang Xun have gone to Mount Song.
Yuan Shu's power had already declined, and he had already written a letter to give the title of emperor to Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao summoned Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu was packing up his troops and imperial belongings and had already come to Xuzhou.”
When the big-eared thief received the news, he knew that Yuan Shu was about to arrive.
Thus, he led Guan Yu, Zhu Ling, and Lu Zhao's 50,000-strong army to fight together.
Just as the vanguard, Ji Ling, arrived. Guan Yu didn't say anything and went straight for Ji Ling.
The two of them shook for ten rounds before Guan Yu shouted and chopped Ji Ling off his horse. The defeated army fled.
Seeing this, Yuan Shu led his army to fight. The big ear bandits divided their troops into three groups: Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao on the left, Guan Yu on the right, and himself in the middle.
As soon as he saw Yuan Shu, he cursed under the banner,""Yuan Gonglu, you are a traitor. Today, I am here to punish you!
If you know what's good for you, then surrender, lest you suffer physical pain.”
When Yuan Shu heard this, he also cursed,""How dare a junior who weaves mats and shoes look down on me!”
After saying this, he personally led his troops over. The big-eared bandits retreated for a while, allowing the left and right armies to attack.
The corpses of Yuan Shu's army were strewn all over the ground, and the blood flowed like a canal. For a time, countless soldiers fled.
At this moment, Yuan Shu was already in a desperate situation.
On the other hand, Zhang Xun and Liu Xun of Mount Song robbed him of his money, food and fodder.
On the other hand, he wanted to return to Shouchun, but he was attacked by the bandits around him, so he had to live in the river pavilion.
At this moment, Yuan Shu only had a thousand defeated soldiers, all of whom were old and weak.
Coincides with the summer heat, food is exhausted, only 30 Hu of wheat left.
They were distributed to the soldiers. The families of the soldiers had nothing to eat, and many of them starved to death.
Yuan Shu also felt that the rice was too coarse to swallow, so he ordered the cook to bring honey water to quench his thirst.
"There's only blood now," the cook said with disdain."There's no honey!"”
When Yuan Shu heard this, he sat on the bed and cried out. He fell to the ground and spat out a few liters of blood.
It was June of the fourth year of Jian 'an. Later generations wrote a poem:
At the end of the Han Dynasty, weapons rose everywhere, and Yuan Shu was too rampant for no reason. He did not think that he would be a prime minister for generations, but wanted to be an emperor alone.
Violent people falsely boast about the national seal, arrogant and extravagant talk about heaven's blessing. Thirsty for honey water can not get, lying alone on the empty bed vomiting blood and died.
Yuan Shu was already dead. His nephew Yuan Yin took the coffin and his wife to the Lujiang River and was killed by Xu Wei.
Xu Wei seized the jade seal and ran to Xudu to present it to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was very happy and granted Xu Wei the title of Governor of Gaoling. At this moment, the jade seal belonged to Cao Cao.
.......
The big-eared thief knew that Yuan Shu was dead and wrote a memorial to the court.
When the memorial reached Cao Cao, he ordered Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao to return to Xudu, leaving the army behind to defend Xuzhou. On the other hand, he personally went out of the city to summon the scattered people to resume production.
Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao returned to Xudu to see Cao Cao and told him that the big-eared bandits had left their troops behind.
Cao Cao was furious and wanted to kill the two of them.
Xun Yu remonstrated,"The military power belongs to Liu Bei. The two of them can't do anything about it.”Cao Cao suppressed his anger and released the two of them.
"Since things have come to this, what can Wen Ruo do?”
Xun Yu said,"You can write to Che Zhou and ask him to find a way to get rid of Liu Bei."”
Cao Cao listened to him and secretly sent people to meet Che Zhou to convey Cao Cao's imperial edict.
Che Zhou immediately asked Chen Deng to discuss the matter.
"This matter is too simple. Today, Liu Bei went out of the city to recruit refugees and would be back soon.
General, you can order the soldiers to lie in ambush at the edge of the barbican in advance to meet him. When he arrives, you can kill him with a knife.
If I can shoot at the rear army on the city wall, I will definitely succeed.”Che Zhou tacitly approved of his method.
Chen Deng returned to the manor to meet his father, Chen Gui, and told him about what had happened today.
Chen Gui let Chen Deng go to inform the big ear thief first. Chen Deng received his father's order and flew to report.
Chen Deng told Guan Yu what had happened.
When Guan Yu heard this, he wanted to fight.
The big-eared thief looked like he had everything under control."He's waiting for me at the edge of the barbican. If he goes, he definitely won't be able to come back.
I have a plan to kill Che Zhou. I will disguise myself as Cao Cao's army and go to Xuzhou at night. I will lead Che Zhou out to meet him. Then I will suddenly attack and kill him.”
The army of the big-eared bandits originally had Cao Cao's banner, and their clothes and armor were the same.
At midnight, Guan Yu went to the city gate to call.
When the guards asked who it was, Guan Yu replied that it was General Xu Huang's men sent by Prime Minister Cao.
The soldiers reported to Che Zhou, who hurriedly asked Chen Deng to discuss: "If we don't welcome him, what if he really is General Xu? If he went out to welcome them, he was afraid that they would be enemies.”
"It's hard to tell friend from foe in the dark. I'll let you in tomorrow morning."”
Guan Yu replied,"I'm afraid Liu Bei will find out. Please open the city gates!"”
Che Zhou was still hesitating when a voice outside the city called for the door to open.
Che Zhou could only put on his armor and mount his horse, leading a thousand soldiers out of the city. He ran across the drawbridge and shouted,"Where's Gongming?”
In the light of the fire, Guan Yu was seen holding a sword and galloping straight to meet the chariot. He shouted: "How dare an ordinary person scheme against my brother!"
Che Zhou was shocked and knew that he had been tricked.
The two men fought for a few rounds, and the chariots and armor could not block them, so they turned their horses back.
When they reached the drawbridge, Chen Deng on the wall shot arrows at them.
He rode around the city. Guan Yu rushed over and slashed at the horse.
He cut off his head and brought it back. He looked at the city wall and shouted,"I have already killed the traitor Che Zhou. You are not guilty. Surrender and you will be spared from death!" The troops surrendered.
When the big-eared thief saw this scene, his heart calmed down.
Unexpectedly, another voice was heard."Big-eared thief, we meet again.”
