“Get up!” Lu Bu also sighed when he looked at this group of people. The way he shook his head was evidently saying that Lu Bu had obtained this news beforehand.
“Chen Gong Old Man, what happened here?!” At the same time, Liu Mang also inquired Chen Gong.
“Aiyah, Yuan Gonglu, how miserable you must feel!” Really, Yuan Shu’s luck is pretty bad. He arrived at the same time when Old Cao wanted to destroy Big-eared Liu.
So, the entire Yan Province and Xu Province was in a state of full alert. Since Yuan Shu arrived at the same time when both armies were clashing, Xu Province army attacked Yuan Shu’s army, thinking that Yuan Shu’s army is Cao’s Army. Cao's Army knew that this is Yuan Shu’s Army but they also mercilessly engaged Yuan Shu’s army before crushing Liu Bei’s army.
And so, before long, because of the pincer attack by Cao from the left and Liu Bei from the right, Old Yuan perished quickly.
TL: Poor Yuan Shu, historically, after Lu Bu died, he also attacked by Liu Bei and died while yearning for honeyed water after being robbed by Chen Lan and Lei Bo. And now, this novel, maybe the author portrayed a more noble death for him. He died fighting enemies, but his army was really annihilated by a pincer attack.
“Where is Yuan Yao?!” Lu Bu looking at those people, but he do not find Yuan Shu’s son Yuan Yao.
“Little lord, the little lord also died in battle in Xu Province!” Said Yang Hong while his tears kept flowing.
They couldn't survive, not because Cao's Army and Liu Bei's Army were merciless to them, but because the clothes and jewelry they wore slowed them down and made it easier for those soldiers to recognize and kill them.
Yuan Shu and Yuan Yao, this stupid father and son. Even when he suffers defeat, he still took his jewelry as a priority, wearing a lot of gold and silver accessories. Disregarding their safety over their treasure first, if they did not die, it is really God’s unfairness.
As a result only Yang Hong and Yuan Shu’s daughter, as well as several people were able to escape from there. The other people were all either scattered or dead.
Due to Yang Hong’s quick thinking, he took his already crippled remaining forces and quickly tried to seek asylum within Lu Bu’s Army who is currently possessing a considerable amount strength.
