Yin Kui said: "Third son, Feng Ji only wants to defend the city. He wants to take the whole city and the third son to die with the Donglai army. The third son can't do this. Now the morale in the city is low, and we can't defend the city at all. , why not..."
"How about it?" Yuan Shang asked.
Yin Kui bowed his head and did not continue, Su You replied: "Let's go, third son, there are still many elite soldiers in the city, we rushed to the northeast overnight, taking advantage of the opportunity that the eighth school's lieutenant army has no time to take care of Yecheng Go to Youzhou to find the lord."
"What about Yecheng?" Yuan Shang's eyes flashed a gleam, and his whole body suddenly had a lot of energy.
That's right, why don't I stay in Yecheng, won't I run away?
Su You replied: "Third Young Master, didn't you hand over all the big and small affairs of Yecheng to Feng Gong? Since he likes to guard the city, let him guard here, maybe we can really wait for us to move from Youzhou reinforcement."
"Hmm! It makes sense."
This reason is so good that Yuan Shang couldn't help showing a gleam of joy on his face.
Since Fengji wants to defend the city, and the city and the Donglai army will die together, let him carry it here.
"In that case, you two should go down and make arrangements, and we'll leave tomorrow night." Yuan Shang nodded slightly in agreement.
But Su You and Yin Kui persuaded at the same time: "Third Young Master, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, we finally leave tonight. If we are late, we will not be able to leave. I will arrange the soldiers and horses later, so there is no need to bring burdens."
"This..." Yuan Shang was a little hesitant to leave now, especially since the subtext of Su You and Yin Kui was not brought by his family, so he was really reluctant to leave like this alone.
"Third Young Master, don't hesitate. The fewer people who know about this matter, the better. The smaller the target, the safer it is." Su You and Yin Kui advised again.
Yuan Shang pondered for a while, then gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, just follow your two wishes!"
That night, Yuan Shang, Su You, and Yin Kui led two thousand elites quietly out from the north, crossed the Zhangshui River and disappeared under the glowing night.
It's just that Feng Ji found out soon, and couldn't help but sighed repeatedly.
However, he didn't dare to say anything, but blocked the news, and then went to Yuan Xi's residence before dawn.
As Yuan Shao's second son, Yuan Xi was sandwiched among all the brothers and belonged to his grandparents who were not loved by his uncles.
Although Yuan Tan died in battle, he is logically the eldest brother, but Yuan Shao dotes on Yuan Shang, so Yuan Xi has nothing to do with him.
Most of the civil and military personnel under Yuan Shao did not defect to him.
Yuan Xi's status was once embarrassing. In the past few years, he was regarded as a little transparent existence in Jizhou.
But now that Yuan Shang has run away, Feng Ji can only come to him.
Yuan Xi heard that the city of Ye was about to be besieged, although he was also terrified, but he had no soldiers and no power, so he was indifferent to life and death, so he closed the door to drink and enjoy his last supper at home.
So it is also very uncomfortable to be woken up in sleep.
But when Feng Ji came in person, he was flattered and got up to meet him.
"It's really rare for Master Feng to come here early in the morning. I don't know why?" Yuan Xi asked curiously, but his tone did not appear to be humble and respectful.
Feng Ji is not surprised, Yuan Xi is a little transparent, it is normal to have resentment in his heart.
So he said directly: "I'm here to save the second young master's life."
"Uh..." Yuan Xi froze there on the spot, a little angry, but more puzzled.
Feng Ji continued: "Third Young Master ran away last night!"
"What? The third one ran away." Yuan Xi couldn't believe it, the anger on his face became stronger, but he didn't know who to vent it on, so he took a few steps back, sat on the chair, and then slammed his fist on the table.
Feng Ji said these two sentences without opening his mouth.
After a long time, Yuan Xicai asked, "The third child has run away, why doesn't Mr. Feng leave?"
"I can't leave!" Feng Ji replied with a wry smile.
This is the truth, even Yuan Shang cannot escape.
The encirclement circle was built according to Jing, and if you leave the city, you will die. Feng Ji dared to bet that one of Su You and Yin Kui must be a spy.
Even if it is not, they must have it in their confidantes.
I mentioned to Yuan Shang long ago that people should not be trusted. As a result, Yuan Shang was blinded at this time, and for his own selfish desire to survive, he left the huge city of Ye unguarded, and chose the fastest way to death.
It really broke his heart.
Such a succession is obviously not in line with the conditions.
"Oh! I can't go, I can't go, so why don't you surrender, anyway, the third child is gone, and there is no one in the city to take care of it. With the ability of your lord, if you surrender to the Marquis of Weihai, you must be reused." Yuan Xi sneered, Anyway, the third child ran away, and the city could no longer be defended. He would die sooner or later, and he had no scruples about speaking.
Feng Ji shook his head and said: "I am the lord's confidant and veteran, others can surrender but I can't, and Weihai Marquis has a lot of talents, so it may not be necessary for me, if there is still hope for our army, why should we say death early?"
"There is still hope, where does the hope come from?" Yuan Xi was puzzled, it was easy to say that Feng Ji wanted to be famous, but there was still hope, where did the hope come from.
Feng Ji said: "I hope that the second son is willing to lead the army to resist. As long as he can persist until the lord returns, there is still hope. Although the chance of success is very small, it is worth swabbing. If you don't swab, you will die."
"This..." Of course Yuan Xi didn't want to die. With the enmity between the Yuan family and the Xu family, he would kill Yuan Xi on the day the city was destroyed. Guo Jia, Shen Pei and others would not let him live, even if he surrendered. Won't.
After thinking for a long time, Yuan Xi said, "What does Feng Gong want me to do?"
Feng Ji said: "The third son is suffering from an infectious disease, so it is not appropriate to come forward to work in the army. The enemy is now, and the second son should shoulder the heavy burden of the Yuan family. Please put on the armor and patrol the city walls with me, defend the city with the soldiers, and preside over the overall situation. "
"Okay! What Mr. Feng said is reasonable, so I will take the responsibility of the third brother temporarily." In order to survive, Yuan Xi had no choice, and he was lucky, if he defended the city, he would return to Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao will be impressed, he can replace the third child as Jizhou's successor.
Yuan Shangyi hadn't been in charge of government affairs for many days, now that Fengji said he was ill, everyone in the city didn't doubt it, after all, Fengji's prestige and authority were there.
Yuan Xi appeared in armor, and it really had a good effect, and the general Yuan Jun who was defending the city had some motivation again.
At least Yuan Shao's sons came to guard the city and advance and retreat together, which can still inspire people.
Donglai army camp outside the city.
The examiner said: "Feng Xiao, you must have let Yuan Shang go on purpose."
"Hey, how can I hide this small plan from you, Yuan Shang is worthless now that he is dead, only when he returns to Yuan Shao's side." Guo Jia laughed.
Guo Jia beside Yuan Shang had indeed arranged for a mole, otherwise Gan Ma would let him go.
Zhao Yun is in the north, and it is not easy to catch up with Yuan Shang.
This is just Guo Jia's next move. After defeating Jizhou and Youzhou, there is one more secret and more information.
"Then we can fight Yecheng now." The judge looked at Yecheng, his thoughts suddenly returned to the past, and Han Fu suddenly thought of him.
Back then, Yuan Shao also listened to Feng Ji and Xu You's words before becoming the leader of Jizhou to kill Han Fu.
