Yuan Tan gritted his teeth and his face became more ferocious. Not only did he not have any regrets, but his hatred became even stronger.
He raised his head, pointed his nostrils at Yuan Fang, and snorted arrogantly: "I, Yuan Tan, am the eldest son of the Yuan family, so what if I bully you, a humble illegitimate son? This is a matter of course, and this is my birthright. . I only regret that I didn¡¯t look for an opportunity to kill you when I was in the mansion, otherwise I wouldn¡¯t have let you harm the world and our Yuan family!¡±
Yuan Tan not only has no regrets, but also feels confident.
The generals on the left were all furious and wanted to rush down and tear this self-proclaimed noble man into pieces.
Yuan Fang sneered and said disdainfully: "What a legitimate eldest son, what a natural power. You are worthy of being the eldest son of Yuan. You are much more powerful than Yuan Xi back then. It's a pity that you so-called nobles All of them will die under my sword, Yuan Fang."
When the word "death" came into his ears, Yuan Tan's arrogant expression suddenly changed, and a trace of fear flashed through his pretendedly arrogant eyes.
Back then, Yuan Xi died in the hands of Yuan Fang, but now, after listening to Yuan Fang's words, even Yuan Tan is not going to let him go.
"Yuan Fang, you betrayed your father and have been despised by everyone in the world. You have killed high-ranking officials and Xianyi. You are already like a beast. If you dare to kill me again, you will be worse than a beast. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning from the sky?"
Yuan Tan roared with a hoarse voice. Although the momentum was fierce, the fear could not be concealed in the trembling voice.
What responded to him was Yuan Fang's wild laughter.
?? Crazy self-confidence, surging with irony and self-confidence. It was as if he was listening to a joke, and he seemed to have ignored the eyes of everyone in the world.
That kind of intense madness actually made Yuan Tan terrified.
The laughter suddenly stopped, Yuan Fang stared at him, and said coldly: "I, Yuan Fang, have a clear distinction between grudges and grudges. Those who treat me with kindness will be repaid tenfold, and those who have enemies with me, I will retaliate with teeth! I am happy with my grudges. Frankly. Standing magnanimously in heaven and earth, justice lies in the hearts of the people, so why should I fear your little slander!"
The magnanimous words shook the hall like thunder and echoed in everyone's ears. Zhang Fei and Wen Chou generals. Everyone was shocked by it.
"What a grudge. I am indeed a true hero. I, Zhang Fei, really did not follow the wrong master." Zhang Fei nodded secretly, admiring in his heart.
Wen Chou also showed respect. He sighed secretly: "Yuan Tan, Yuan Tan, it seems that I want to thank you. If you didn't want to harm me, how could you have made it self-defeating and helped me surrender to such a heroic master?"
The officers and men in the hall all admired Yuan Fang even more.
However, Yuan Tan already looked horrified, panicked and unable to respond. His originally solemn and ferocious expression showed a look of shame, as if Yuan Fang's magnanimity dwarfed him.
Under the admiring gazes of everyone, Yuan Fang slowly stood up, holding his sword in hand, and stepped down the steps.
Everyone knows that Yuan Fang wants to personally kill Yuan Tan.
"My lord, let me kill this kid." Wen Chou stepped forward and asked for his life.
Yuan Fang glanced at him and said calmly: "Wen Ziqin, he is your old master after all. If you kill him, aren't you afraid of being stigmatized?"
Wen Chou laughed and said: "My lord is not afraid of small rumors, so what should I be afraid of? Besides, this guy has a grudge against me. If you ask me to kill him on my lord's behalf, it will be considered as venting my anger."
Although Wen Chou acted indifferent, Yuan Fang understood that he wanted to bear the reputation of killing his brother for himself.
Yuan Fang is gratified that he has this kind of thought.
Yuan Fang did not agree, pushed him away, and said calmly: "I accept your wishes. The grudges between me and him must be understood by myself. You don't need to bear the so-called infamy and the slander of the young people for me. I¡¯ll carry it on my own shoulders!¡±
After saying that, Yuan Fang resolutely turned his eyes and strode down the stairs, his eyes as cold as ice.
Yuan Fang came so slowly, but in Yuan Tan's eyes, it was like the god of death, approaching him mercilessly.
Yuan Tan panicked. Yuan Tan panicked completely.
He dragged his body back step by step, shouting in horror: "Yuan Fang, I am your eldest brother. The blood of the Yuan family is all flowing in our bodies. You can't kill me, you can't kill me~~"
"Humph, it was only when I was about to die that I remembered that I was your brother. When you bullied me and planned to murder me, why didn't you remember that I was your brother?"
Yuan Fang sneered, with a cold expression of hatred on his face, and stepped forward step by step.
? ? Stretching out his ape arm, he slowly pulled out the sword on his waist.
It was a sword of revenge filled with anger and grievance.
"Yuan Fang, do you really want to kill me?" Yuan Tan gritted his teeth and roared hysterically
However, Yuan Fang only raised his sword high and replied calmly: "I am killing a despicable and shameless person like you. Yuan Tan, go die in peace. When you get down there, say hello to Yuan Xi for me."
Amid the sarcasm, Yuan Fang made a move to cut off his sword.
¡°Bitch, I¡¯ll fight you~~¡±
Seeing that there was no way to escape, Yuan Tan screamed wildly and rushed towards Yuan Fang like a caged beast struggling to death.
"It's a pity that any of his struggles are in vain in the eyes of Yuan Fang, who possesses the martial arts of the middle stage of bone forging.
With a sneer on his lips, Yuan Fang swung his sword down without hesitation.
Yuan Tan¡¯s bloody head flew to the ground, and his headless body jumped forward a few steps and fell at Yuan Fang¡¯s feet.
In the hall, Zhang Fei, Wen Chou and other generals clapped their hands and cheered, and they all shouted happily.
With the long sword back in its sheath, Yuan Fang looked down at Yuan Tan's head. The joy of having avenged his great revenge spread all over his body, making him feel indescribably comfortable.
Anyone who bullies me will be killed. I, Yuan Fang, will do what I say!
Yuan Fang glanced at the soldiers and shouted loudly: "Drag Yuan Tan's body out for me, and then put the good wine on the table. We will stay drunk tonight."
In the lobby, there was an explosion of joy in an instant.
Breaking the white horse, killing Yuan Tan, and surrendering to Jushou, how could Yuan Fang not enjoy such a huge harvest?
He drank heavily all night, and the next day, he slept until three o'clock in the morning before Yuan Fang fell asleep.
The first thing Yuan Fang did after he fell asleep was to summon Jushou to come over and discuss with him the next step.
"Cao Cao in Yuzhou and Sun Ce in Jiangdong are not ordinary people. Now I want to send my troops south to teach Cao Cao a lesson first. What do you think?" Yuan Fang asked.
Jushou shook his head and said seriously: "Although Cao Cao only has one state, he is a great man in the world. If you want to kill him, you have to give time. If he falls into the quagmire of war in the south and is held back by Cao Cao, then It gives Yuan Shao a chance to breathe."
"And Hebei has a large population. As long as we give him a few years, he will be able to reorganize 200,000 troops. Even if Yuan Shao does not go south, it will be even more difficult for us to go north to capture Hebei. If we don't capture Hebei, , The Lord is in the Central Plains, and he has to face enemies from all directions, and he will surely fall into an unfavorable situation sooner or later. "
Yuan Fang nodded slightly. What he just said was just an assumption. Ju Shou's analysis coincided with his true intention.
"Then I'll see you publicly, so I should take advantage of the situation and attack Hebei without giving Yuan Shao a chance to breathe." Yuan Fang said firmly.
"My lord is wise." Jushou cupped his hands and smiled.
"However, before crossing the Yellow River, I have to go to Qingzhou in person to deal with the Liaodong Army who want to take advantage and completely relieve their worries." Yuan Fang said with murderous intent.
On the same day, Yuan Fang sent an order to all the troops to prepare, take a short rest, and follow him to Qingzhou at any time.
There, there is a man named Bu Lu, who is suspected to be Lu Bu's enemy under a pseudonym, waiting for Yuan Fang to go and deal with him.
Just when Yuan Fang was planning an eastward expedition to Qingzhou, the information that Baima City had been destroyed and Yuan Tan was executed was sent to Jizhou urgently.
Yecheng, military mansion.
Yuan Shao, with a sick look on his face, lay softly on the couch, with his wife Liu serving at his side, and his fourth son Yuan Shang serving tea and water from the side. The mother and son took care of Yuan Shao very considerately.
The third son Yuan Xi was killed, the eldest son Yuan Tan was besieged, and the fifth son Yuan Mai was young. Now, Yuan Shang has become Yuan Shao's only son who relies on him, and he is always at his side.
Footsteps sounded, and Xin Ping walked into the room, his face as solemn as iron, and even a little sad.
Yuan Shao seemed to be prepared. Seeing Xin Ping's appearance, he sighed: "Zhongzhi, could it be that Baima has fallen?"
??
After a long while, Xin Ping finally uttered the word "kill" from his mouth.
There was a deathly silence in the room.
Yuan Shao lay there blankly, looking up to the sky, saying nothing, neither roaring in anger nor crying in sorrow.
After a long time, there was just a helpless sigh, as if he had been mentally prepared for Yuan Tan's death.
In fact, when he decided to give up the white horse and return to Yecheng, he had already anticipated today's result.
Ms. Liu beside her breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had settled a matter on her mind.
But at this time, Yuan Shang knelt down on the ground and said sadly and angrily: "Father,"I would like to invite troops to go south. I must kill that traitor Yuan Fang, avenge my elder brother, and hate my father~"
Yuan Shang was extremely sad and angry. Before he finished speaking, his face was filled with tears, as if he had lost his brother.
Seeing Yuan Shang so sad and angry, Yuan Shao finally felt a little comforted. He struggled to sit up, caressed Yuan Shang's shoulders and said: "Shang'er, it's rare that you value brotherhood so much. You have such a heart. Your eldest brother's spirit is in heaven, anyway. It¡¯s comforting.¡±
"Father, the eldest brother is my biological brother. How can I not avenge him? The damn traitor has the heart to kill his own brother. I must kill him"
Yuan Shang cried and cursed, unable to make a sound.
Yuan Shao hugged him tightly and gritted his teeth and said: "My father must avenge your eldest brother, but now is not the time. When my father regroups and regains his strength, he will send his army south. At that time, he will definitely kill him." That beast."
Yuan Shang's anger had just subsided and he no longer insisted on asking for a fight. He just lay in his father's arms and cried.
On the face buried deep in the darkness, the corners of the mouth quietly raised, with a hint of a proud sneer passing by. (To be continued)
