1037 , Yuan Shu escapes
He didn't know about Gongsun Zan, but Xiahou Dun had absolute confidence that Yuan Shu would not be able to defeat him if he did this.
At this moment, a spy came to report.
"Report to the general and discover Yuan Shu."
Upon hearing this news, Xiahou Dun hurriedly asked, "Where is he?"
Yuan Shu's identity is very sensitive. He is a pseudo-emperor. If he can capture him in Xudu, it will greatly enhance Cao Cao's reputation. Therefore, Xiahou Dun is bound to win Yuan Shu.
“At the South Gate.”
Hearing the spy's answer, Xiahou Dun understood what Yuan Shu wanted to do and he wanted to run away.
Gongsun Zan was at the east gate, taking care of the north gate at the same time, while he was at the west gate, and he was at the south gate at the same time.
Yuan Shu sent all the soldiers at once and rushed to the four city gates at the same time. The purpose was to create chaos so that he could have a chance to escape. After Xiahou Dun learned about Yuan Shu's whereabouts, he immediately ordered: "Zhong Jin, Zhong Shen!"
Zhong Jin and Zhong Shen are brothers, and they are both deputy generals of Xiahou Dun and have quite powerful force.
"Leave it to you two, gather the remaining troops, capture Xia Cai, and be careful of Gongsun Zan's sneak attack."
"Here!" Zhong Jin and Zhong Shen took the order.
After explaining the matter here, Xiahou Dun led three thousand elite soldiers to the south gate. He wanted to rush to Gongsun Zan and capture Yuan Shu. For this reason, these three thousand elite soldiers were all cavalrymen, running towards the south gate in a mighty manner.
At the same time, Gongsun Zan, who also received the news, also led his white horse Yi to come from the south gate...
Although Yuan Shu was crazy, he was not stupid enough to accompany his soldiers to live and die together. His crazy actions were his own cunning. He asked the soldiers to die, while he took his confidant to prepare to evacuate quietly.
Yuan Shu abandoned his so-called emperor's ceremonial wars and replaced him with a dragon robe. However, Yuan Shu did not want to wear the same clothes as his soldiers. He did not listen to his subordinates' persuasion and insisted on wearing a conspicuous piece of clothing. This kind of clothing was also worn by the emperor normally, equivalent to the emperor's casual clothes.
The reason given by Yuan Shu is very simple. He is the emperor, so it is already a big concession to not show off when traveling. If he still wears such as miscellaneous soldiers, where will his face be put? He is the emperor and needs majesty.
So, the conspicuous Yuan Shu was noticed by Cao's spies among the many miscellaneous soldiers wearing the same clothes.
Yuan Shu's behavior exposed him as soon as he went out. With such a striking target, the Cao army soldiers intercepted by the South Gate were naturally very caring. Yuan Shu was like a beacon in the dark, constantly attracting moths.
The continuous blockade of Cao's soldiers put a lot of pressure on Yuan Shu's escape.
However, although Yuan Shu was cruel and idiotic, he still treated his confidant soldiers very well. These soldiers were used to being arrogant and do good deeds with Yuan Shu, and they had done no less bad things than Yuan Shu. Knowing that Yuan Shu was gone, they would definitely be buried with Yuan Shu for burial.
Therefore, they fought hard and actually broke through the interception of Cao's soldiers and broke out.
"Let's go, let's go!"
Yuan Shu kept urging his men to take him to escape from here quickly.
He was escorted by soldiers just now, and Cao's soldiers kept coming to him along the way. From time to time, a rifle arrow flew over, which had already scared Yuan Shu to death, and his feces and urine were almost scared out.
"Where to escape?"
The Cao army soldiers behind them were chasing them one after another. Even though they didn't know that Yuan Shu was here, they knew that this must be a big fish, so how could they let it go easily?
"Stop them."
Yuan Shu was hoarse and asked some of his soldiers to divide up to intercept the pursuers, while the remaining part escorted him to escape.
Yuan Shu's confidant soldiers were still very powerful, at least stronger than the soldiers of the Cao army. After parting a part, they actually stopped the pursuers, allowing Yuan Shu to escape for a while.
"call..."
Seeing that there were no pursuers behind him and he fled far away, Yuan Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and finally escaped.
"Go away, go away!"
Yuan Shu was almost slumped on the horse. Although he had escaped, he still kept urging the soldiers to speed up.
However, after walking for a while, Yuan Shu couldn't hold on.
In order to escape just now, Yuan Shu had to give up his carefully crafted emperor carriage and change it to riding a war horse. Where can I ride a horse and ride a car?
I just escaped because of my nervousness and didn't notice it for a while. Now that I relaxed, Yuan Shu felt that his butt was being put on uncomfortable. This was a kind of pain and torture for him.
It was a good thing that I was going to escape just now, but now I have escaped and there are no pursuers behind me. Yuan Shu's problem suddenly came back.
"Stop!"
Yuan Shu stopped and ordered the soldiers to build a carriage for him here so that he could rush back to Shouchun with comfort.
"Your Majesty, this place is still very dangerous, so bear with it." A soldier tried to persuade Yuan Shu.
"Damn it!"
