No one thought that the trial match was so strong that he would rather die than surrender. He simply set off a fire and enveloped the whole inner city in a sea of fire. No one dared to enter it.
The fire burned all night, making the whole city of Peiping "bright". When the fire was a little smaller, Xu Huang ordered the soldiers to carry water to put out the fire.
"General, there are no living people in the city. There are charred corpses everywhere." After entering, the soldiers who came out again reported to Xu.
"... take out the corpse from the city and give it to Shen Rong."
In fact, Xu Huang's heart is a little puzzled, the match set fire to the city, can't Yuan Shao also be burned to death? In other words, Yuan Shao was already dead after he was hit by Lv Bu's arrow, so he dared to set fire to the city without fear.
Thinking of this, Xu Huang was suddenly enlightened and ordered: "go to the prefectures' office and look for it. Maybe you can find Yuan Shao's body."
It is the so-called "live to see people, death to see the corpse", because if you can not see the body, you can not accurately judge whether a person is dead, especially the princes who fight for hegemony over the world, if not, there will be a lot of trouble. As the saying goes, beating a snake will not kill you, but you will hurt yourself.
In the reign of Renzong, a famous general of the Northern Song Dynasty, di Qing was ordered to March south to Nong Zhigao. At that time, Nong Zhigao was very influential in Guangdong and Guangxi, but he was defeated by Di Qing. Di Qing led the army to chase him, and finally trapped him in the lonely city. As a result, Nong Zhigao also set fire to the city. When the fire went out, the song army found a burnt corpse in a dragon robe. Of course, his face could not be seen clearly.
However, di Qing reported the matter to the imperial court. Instead of saying that he had caught Nong Zhigao, he only caught the burnt corpse in the Dragon Robe. Naturally, this matter caused great dissatisfaction with the song army, because if he caught Nong Zhigao, he could ask the court for a reward. As a result, di Qing had to do this.
However, it can also be seen that if we can not accurately grasp the head of the enemy, it will be very troublesome.
Xu Huang sent soldiers to search for Yuan Shao, but he couldn't find Yuan Shao. Naturally, he was worried. At this time, some soldiers reported that someone outside the door knew where Yuan Shao's body was.
"Do you know where Yuan Shao's body is?" Xu Huang stares at the young man in front of him and asks with a little doubt.
"Yes, the villain knows, but if the villain tells General Xu whether he can give the villain a hundred dollars to support his mother?" The young man said without expression.
Xu Huang's face is tinged with admiration. After all, everyone likes filial piety. What's more, the Han Dynasty is the dynasty that attaches great importance to filial piety.
"Good! As long as you tell me where Yuan Shao's body is, and the news is true, you will be given 500 gold, and you can still serve in our army, so that you and your mother will have no worries about food and clothing. " Xu Huang agreed.
"Yuan Shao's body is in Yuan's house, but it was buried in the ground, so the inner city was burned last night without any damage."
"Oh? Who are you and how do you know so much about it? " Xu Huang asked curiously, because this is obviously a big secret that ordinary people can't know.
"My name is Yuan Fang, Yuan Shao... Is my father." The young man was silent for a while and said with hatred.
"What?" Xu Huang was shocked. There are a lot of people who want to be proud. But it's not good to tell the body of his father like this, right?
"In his eyes, only Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang are his sons. The rest are no different from servants. My mother is a concubine in Yuan's house. He was drunk and gave birth to me!" the young man said angrily
"After his mother was flattered by him once, she never saw him again. Others said that I was a bastard..."
after listening to his words, Xu Huang realized that he could not help sighing.
Everyone thought that ancient times were three wives and four concubines, but they did not know that ancient times were also monogamous, only one wife and many concubines. Only the first wife was the wife. The rest of the concubines had no human rights and could be treated as slaves. If they were not happy, they could even kill him.
And the main wife is not the same, can not casually leave, if casually leave the main wife, then it will be condemned. Therefore, the ancient men had great respect for their wives. Except for the emperor, changing the queen was like changing clothes.
Xu Huang immediately took hundreds of soldiers and Yuan Fang to the junshoufu, which was also located in the inner city. Naturally, a large fire was also matched and burned into ruins. Many charred corpses' limbs were opened. Obviously, he was touched by the flame before his death, which was hard to imagine.
"Right in here?" Xu Huang turned his head and asked Yuan Fang.
"Well, it's definitely in there." Yuan Fang affirmed.
"Dig for me!" Xu Huang waved
Hundreds of soldiers picked up their shovels and dug, sweating, and finally dug out a coffin at noon.
"Dig it out!"
The soldier who dug out the coffin called out excitedly. Xu Huang rushed to meet him: "open the coffin and have a look. Hurry up!"
Although it is not very moral to open a coffin, it must be confirmed that this is Yuan Shao.
around the taxi driver took a spade and knocked on the coffin cover. Xu Huang looked up and looked up. It was a great joy. Was it not Yuan Shaoyou?Yuan Shao's body was originally intended to be put into the coffin for temporary storage in the city, so that it could be buried in the earth in the future. However, it was not expected that Shen Rong would surrender to the city. Naturally, it would be too late to transfer Yuan Shao's body.
"That's great. It's really thief yuan!"
"Cover the coffin and send the corpse to Luoyang!" he cried
In the battle of Peiping, the city of Shen Rong Xian surrendered. The Xiliang army and the Bingzhou army invaded the city like a tide, and the city was set on fire. Then Beiping city fell into the hands of the Xiliang army.
Xu Huang dug up Yuan Shao's body, and then arranged a cart to send it to Luoyang at a high speed. Along the way, he exchanged horses and people at various post stations.
At the same time, when Xu Huang and Lu Bu jointly won Beiping and won half of Youzhou, Cao Cao also planned a long planned military action against Hebei.
Xiahoushang and lvqian led their troops to attack Pingan port from Qingzhou, then they managed Xiangping and Liaoxi counties, and then set up ambush on the road that gongsundu had to go through, which greatly broke the main force of gongsundu.
However, several strong cities in Liaodong were occupied by Cao's army, and Gongsun Du had no way out. Moreover, those gentry who had been killed by him had turned to Cao Cao one after another. Gongsundu exterminated the gentry and gentry in Liaodong. Naturally, there were some fish who missed the net. These people hated gongsundu to the bone. Naturally, they took all the resources to help Cao Jun, which made Liaodong full of Cao banners.
