Chapter 961 (1/2)
That night, midnight.
In the north of this time, it was the dark night. Zishi had already reached out his hand and could not see his fingers. Therefore, the ordinary people of Youzhou had already fallen asleep at this time.
”Second and third childe, take care of yourself.” They said to Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang.
”My father's burial is up to you, master.” Yuan Xi sighed.
The Han dynasty ruled the country with filial piety. According to the truth, when the father died, all the officials in the Han Dynasty had to resign from their posts and keep filial piety for their father for three years. However, Yuan Shao made an explanation before his death, and ordered that his funeral should not be published, so as not to affect the morale. Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were allowed to leave without filial piety.
The trial match solemnly promised: ”two young masters, please rest assured that even if they are killed, they will protect the body of the Lord!”
”Father... Sobbing.”
Yuan Shang, a young man, couldn't help crying. Before, Yuan Shao treated him like a pearl in his eye and followed him wherever he went. Because of his illness, he gave up his plan to surprise Xu Du. He was called a kind father. Now that Yuan Shao died, of course, Yuan Shang felt at a loss as to what to do.
”Third brother, this is not the time to cry.” Yuan Xi said slowly, ”don't delay any more. Now is the best time to break through. It's time to go.”
”Well, second brother.”
”Open the gate
In the night, the west gate of Beiping city was slowly opened. Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, who had been on horseback for a long time, rushed out at the moment when they saw the gate open.
”Come on
Step on it! As soon as more than 200 horsemen rushed out, most of the horses in Beiping were concentrated here. Since we want to break through, the speed must be the first. If we rush out with infantry, it will be just a burden.
”The enemy is out of the city!”
”Get up quickly, go to inform Wen Hou and Xu Zhenbei that the enemy is out of the city!”
Now that Yuan Shao is surrounded by Beiping City, it is impossible for Xu Huang to let go of this big fish. Therefore, they led an army with Lv Bu to surround the whole Beiping city. Xu Huang's Jizhou army set up defense in the East, West and south, while Lu Bu's Bingzhou army deployed in the north. Because there was no escape for the enemy in the city. To the West and south, it was a trap. To the East was Liaodong. It was impossible for Yuan Shao to escape to the enemy. The only way to escape was to the north. Yuan Shao had a close relationship with Wuhuan and Xianbei people in recent years.
Therefore, Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang and more than 200 horsemen rushed out of Ximen. Most of the soldiers stationed in Ximen could not stop the enemy.
”General! There is an enemy breaking through the city
Xu Huang jumped to his feet: ”what? Who broke through and how many were there? ”
”I don't know who they are. The enemy did not display the flag. There are about two or three hundred people, all cavalry!” Report.
”Well... Go to inform Wen Hou and ask him to lead his cavalry to stop him immediately!” Xu Huang yelled: ”command Ximen garrison to block the enemy in any case!”
”Here it is
...
”second childe, there is a trench in front of you!”
”Don't be afraid, raise the speed of the horse to the fastest speed, and rush to it in one breath!”
Yuan Xi drank loudly, and more than 200 riders accelerated their charge, leaping over the trench and leaping to the opposite side.
”Go, go!”
