Chapter 955 Cleaning up the Remaining Evil

"ah!"

Although Yuan Xi pulled him back so urgently, how fast was Lu Bu's arrow? In the end, the arrow hit Yuan Shao's lower back, bringing out a stream of blood and letting out a scream.

"Father!"

Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi were shocked at the same time, and rushed into the city to protect Yuan Shao. However, Lu Bu still refused to give up. He grabbed Fang Tian's painted halberd and killed him again, hoping to take advantage of the situation and enter the city.

"Fire arrows!" the judge ordered. He had already arranged hundreds of archers on top of the city, and immediately fired a volley of arrows at Lu Bu. Although Lu Bu was wearing heavy armor, the enemy's previous arrows were not aimed at him. He focused his fire and shot at the entire Bingzhou cavalry. He was naturally able to defend against it. However, hundreds of enemy archers focused their fire on him this time. Of course, Lu Bu had to take it lightly and had to wave Fang Tian's painted halberd to fire the arrows. .

But after such a delay, Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi had already escorted Yuan Shao into the city gate, and the two city gates began to slowly close.

"snort!"

Lu Bu was naturally annoyed when he failed to catch Yuan Shao. Since he could no longer catch Yuan Shao, there was no need to take such risks. He immediately turned around and left, rushing out of the rain of arrows.

"Hmph, kill!"

Lu Bu's anger, which had nowhere to vent, naturally vented on these soldiers of Yuan. He immediately led the Bingzhou cavalry to chase and intercept the remaining soldiers of Yuan, charging and killing them everywhere.

At this time, Xu Huang had also led his army to complete the siege of Jiang Qi, Wen Chou, and Yuan Tan's army. Thirty thousand troops surrounded them and attacked from all sides.

Poof!

The big ax easily tore open the armor of a Yuan soldier, slicing the skin and flesh, and blood spattered on Xu Huang's armor.

"Kill me. Those who advance will be rewarded, and those who retreat will be beheaded!"

"Kill!"

The Xiliang army was far superior to Yuan Shao's army in terms of strength and morale. At this moment, they were naturally killing Yuan Shao's army and retreating steadily.

"My lord, you are my lord's bloodline. You cannot die here. Please lead your army to break out." Jiang Qi said solemnly: "The general is willing to lead his army to cut off the rear and fight to the death with Xu Huang!"

Yuan Tan was overjoyed when he heard this and held Jiang Qi's hand: "The general is truly a loyal minister of the Yuan family. Tan will definitely repay the general's family generously in the future."

After saying that, Yuan Tan immediately greeted and led hundreds of cavalry to break out in the direction of Beiping City.

"Alas" Jiang Qi couldn't help but sigh. This eldest young master was really disappointing and he left as soon as he said so.

Forget it, you must be bold when things get tough. Today, the only option is to fight to the death.

"Kill them, let these Liangzhou soldiers see the spirit of our Yanzhao men!"

Jiang Qi was always majestic in the army. He issued orders and received immediate responses. However, under siege from all sides by the Xiliang army, Yuan Shao's army was still retreating. There were constant casualties, and some even knelt down to surrender.

"Jiang Qi, surrender!"

Xu Huang rode on his horse and shouted to Jiang Qi from a distance: "Yuan Shao will definitely be defeated. Is it possible that you don't want to make great contributions and want to be buried for the Yuan family?"

Jiang Qi was still able to boost morale in this unfavorable situation, and he could be regarded as a good general, so Xu Huang started to love talents.

"Hmph, you are dreaming, how can I, Jiang Qi, be a surrender?" Jiang Qi shouted angrily.

"I don't know how to praise!"

Xu Huang shouted softly, urged his horse to rush forward, raised the capital-opening ax in his hand high, pointed it at Jiang Qi, and then dropped it.

when!

"Well"

Jiang Qi raised his hand to block Xu Huang's axe, but the tiger's mouth was shattered by the powerful and heavy axe, causing him to vomit blood.

"Hey!"

Xu Huang's moves were continuous, and another ax came towards Jiang Qi. Jiang Qi used all his strength to block the axe, but Xu Huang quickly pulled out and aimed at Jiang Qi. Qi struck down with an ax again.

Jiang Qi's pupils showed a look of panic. He knew that he had no strength anymore and he would definitely not be able to stop this axe. It seemed that he really had to answer here today.

Unexpectedly, Xu Huang changed his attack midway and hit Jiang Qi on the back with the big ax from the side. He groaned and fell down from his horse.

"Tie him up!"

Xu Huang pointed at Jiang Qi, and then looked at Wen Chou and Gao Lan, who were fighting fiercely.

Both of them were sweating profusely. They had been fighting for more than eighty years, and their strength was greatly exhausted. They also had several wounds on their bodies. With the fierce fighting, blood continued to seep out of the wounds.

"Wen Chou, surrender!"

Gao Lan suddenly shouted: "Look at the people around you, how many are left?"

Wen Chou frowned and looked to the left and right. He saw that less than half of the tens of thousands of Yuan's troops were dead or wounded, and many people had surrendered. Only a few hundred soldiers and some determined Yuan soldiers were still fighting the enemy.

"Yuan Shao, the old thief, is exhausted. The general is assisting the imperial court. As long as we defeat Cao Cao, we will be able to achieve ZTE and rebuild the Han Dynasty. Wen Chou, you are also a brave general. Why don't you join the general and make contributions?" Gao Lan said loudly.

"hahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Wen Chou laughed loudly, and Gao Lan frowned and stared at him.

"Gao Lan, do you think I will be like you?" Wen Chou said coldly: "Although I am illiterate, I still know the word loyalty. Since I am already a general under the lord's command, it is absolutely impossible to surrender to others."

"So, are you prepared to die in battle?" Gao Lan said angrily. He was naturally annoyed after being humiliated by Wen Chou many times.

"Hahaha, even if I, Wen Chou, die, I will not die in the hands of a villain like you!"

Wen Chou sneered, threw the big iron gun to the ground, took out the sword from his waist, put it across his neck, and pulled hard.

Poof!

The sharp blade cut open the throat, and blood spurted out. Wen Chou's expression froze, his tall body trembled slightly, and he slowly fell to the ground.

"Give Wen Chou's body a good burial." Gao Lan was silent for a while and ordered.

Seeing Wen Chou committing suicide, Jiang Qi being arrested, and Yuan Tan escaping, the remaining Yuan troops suddenly lost their fighting spirit and knelt down to surrender.

"I'm waiting for you."

"The whole army gathers the defeated soldiers and cleans the battlefield!" Xu Huang ordered.

In addition to Yuan Tan's escape, Jiang Qi was captured and Wen Chou committed suicide. Among the more than 10,000 soldiers of Yuan Shao's army, more than 3,000 were killed or wounded, and more than 2,000 escaped. Nearly half of Yuan's army was captured and later surrendered. .

"Haha, this battle is really a great victory. Gongsun Du and Yuan Shao fought to the death, but they didn't expect that our army is like a mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind." Cheng Lian laughed.

"Humph, it's a pity that we couldn't catch Yuan Shao." Lu Bu snorted coldly.

Xu Huang smiled and said: "It's nothing. Didn't Marquis Wen shoot Yuan Shao with an arrow? I guess Yuan Shao can't hold on in the city now. Will the enemy army still be able to hold on?"

"That's right. This old thief Yuan Shao was hit by an arrow from me, so he's still lucky to survive." Lu Bu sneered.
