Chapter 324 The Death of Yuan Shao
"Ahhh... Liu He, is this how he helped me? What is the difference between this and without him? With him, I will perish. Without him, I will perish. I shouldn't have listened to Feng Ji in the first place. For this villain, think about it now, it would be better to kill him that day!"

Due to the long-term battle, Yuan Shao's soldiers suffered a large number of casualties, and now there are only a few thousand capable fighters. Facing Liu He and Cao Cao who are like tigers and wolves, he has no chance of winning at all. He originally hoped that Liu He and Cao Cao would fight to the death. But it was obvious that neither of them was an idiot, and they were both trying their best to maintain restraint, and the leaders of the two armies were chatting and laughing with each other, without the slightest intention of doing anything.

"These two cunning things seem to be joining forces to plot against me. It's really hateful! I hate that I shouldn't have listened to Tian Feng at the beginning, and I hate that I killed Tian Feng by mistake!" Yuan Shao couldn't be more angry, In the end, he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then he passed out on the ground, unconscious...

From then on, Yuan Shao suffered from a serious illness, and after only persisting for less than a month, he was already dying.

This is mainly due to the fact that after several setbacks, now Yuan Shao has already lost his hope of living, and then gave up on himself, lusting after women with illness, seeking pleasure day and night, and finally reached an irreparable situation.

In the gorgeous big tent, the lights are bright, the table is full of delicacies, and the beauties are surrounded by beauties, but Yuan Shao can no longer enjoy these things. He is only in his fifties, but he has come to the end of his life .

Beside him, the second son Yuan Xi and the youngest son Yuan Shang stood. His eldest son Yuan Tan had been sent to Pingyuan to serve as the governor of Qingzhou. He thought that he was the master of Qingzhou, so he asked Yuan Tan to be the governor of Qingzhou with only one county. , even the two counties of Hejian and Bohai in Jizhou actually accepted Yuan Tan's control.

In fact, before this, Yuan Shao hadn't eaten for three days and three nights, and he was already skinny and out of shape. In the past three days, Yuan Shao hadn't said a word, but tonight he suddenly regained his energy and drank a drink. There was only half a bowl of porridge, but after eating it he vomited it all out again, causing Yuan Shao to burst into tears, because he knew that he probably wouldn't be able to make it through the night.

So Yuan Shao thought about explaining the funeral, but at this moment, although his mouth was moving, he was already speechless.With tears streaming down his face, he stretched out a finger with difficulty, pointing weakly at his youngest son Yuan Shang.

At this time, his wife, Mrs. Liu, choked with sobs and said, "But do you want Yuan Shang to inherit your position?"

Yuan Shao nodded his head with difficulty, and finally looked at the surrounding civil and military with his eyes, with a look of pleading.

"My lord, do you want me to wait to assist you, my lord? Please don't worry, my lord, I will assist you wholeheartedly, and I will never disappoint my lord!" With tears streaming down his face, the examiner said solemnly to Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at Gao Gan. Gao Gan is Yuan Shao's nephew, and at the same time he has an elite army in his hands. If he can support Yuan Shang, he will naturally secure Yuan Shang's seat.

Seeing this, Gao Gan quickly bowed his head and said, "Uncle, don't worry, my nephew will definitely do my best to help my cousin, no, assist the new lord, and help him get out of the crisis."

Only then did Yuan Shao nod his head, then let out a long sigh, wept silently, vomited blood for several liters, and a generation of heroes finally died in Huangquan.

"Father, father, you can't just leave the child like this..." Seeing his father's death, Yuan Shang knew that it was time for him to show his filial piety, so he beat his chest and cried bitterly.

However, the judge was choked up and persuaded: "My lord, it is not the time to be sad. The country cannot be without a master for a day. Now that the lord has passed away and the situation is turbulent, the son should be on the throne early, so as to break some people's unrealistic illusions." , once someone gets the upper hand, then we will be passive."

At this moment, Mrs. Liu stepped forward, nodded and said, "My son, Mr. Shen is right. At this moment, you must not act emotionally. Otherwise, how can you live up to your father's great entrustment when he was dying?"

Yuan Shang nodded, and then announced that he would inherit the positions of Jizhou Mu, Qingzhou Mu, Situ, and Yehou from his father Yuan Shao, announced the death of Yuan Shao, and ordered Yuan Tan to come to Yecheng to worship his father and meet his new lord.

That night, mourning was held for the first time in Yecheng. The soldiers at the top of the city waved white flags, wore white armor, and played mournful music. If they had not heard about Yuan Shao's death in advance, they would have thought that Yecheng was announcing its surrender.

At this time, Liu He and Cao Cao formed an alliance and were talking in front of the formation as usual, when they suddenly heard the news of Yuan Shao's death, they sighed almost at the same time.

Cao Cao first sighed: "Yuan Benchu, the fourth and third prince, can be regarded as a hero of his generation. I have known him since childhood, played together in the streets and alleys of Luoyang, and snatched brides together. Later, when we grew up, we became officials in the same dynasty, and we were ranked among the West. Later, when the national crisis hit, we raised troops together to attack Dong Zhuo. Over the years, we could be said to have established a friendship. However, we fought with each other again. Qin lost its deer and the whole world chased it. However, what we could gain was only One, for this deer, no matter how close the relationship was in the past, now they can only compete with each other, and there is no room for change, so there was the Battle of Guandu, then our army broke into the warehouse and trapped Yecheng, so there is today. The death of Yuan Shao."

Liu He also sighed with emotion: "What Brother Meng De said is true. Yuan Shao was originally a hero. Think of the time when he led his army to wipe out the eunuchs who had caused trouble for many years. Think of the time when he led the army to fight against Dong's thieves and express the national calamity. He unified Jizhou and made the people of Jizhou live and work in peace and prosperity. He is also a hero of his generation. However, since annexing Jizhou, he has become different. He is self-willed and jealous. He has talented people but cannot use them. On the contrary, the villain listens to his words accurately. Otherwise, Brother Meng De would not have won so easily in the Battle of Guandu. So what changed all this? Why did Yuan Benchu ​​change all this? In fact, I want to come I want to go, I have realized a truth, and I want to ask Brother Meng De for advice."

"Oh? I don't know if my virtuous brother has a good opinion? Please listen to me." Cao Cao was very curious about Liu He's words, and asked with a smile.

I saw Liu He Xiaodao: "I don't have high views, but I do have some low views. I think that the reason why Yuan Benchu ​​became like this is all because of power. Once people have power, they will worry about gains and losses. The so-called sea is open to all rivers, and tolerance means Big, standing on a wall with thousands of feet, and being strong without desire. If people have no desire for power, they will naturally not worry about gains and losses, naturally they will not be suspicious, and naturally they will not reject some people because they are talented but not loyal to you. As long as you have the world in mind , there will be no gain or loss. For example, in the current court, although the emperor is wise and wise, but evil is in power and deceives the saints. The emperor has the power but cannot use it, and has the purpose but cannot achieve it. That is why the world is in such chaos, and that is why we are running around like this. So, if we want to really wipe out the army and prevent heroes from having the tragedy of Yuan Shao, we only need to return the power to the Han Dynasty, and the world will truly be at peace. I wonder what Brother Meng De wants?"
