At dusk.

Dian Wei had already prepared the altar and offerings.

Liu Yao, holding the Tang horizontal sword on his waist, walked forward slowly.

On the altar, there were a lot of horse bandit heads.

Liu Yao, descendant of the Han Dynasty!

Pray to heaven and earth here today.

Look up to the Holy Spirit, establish the heart for heaven and earth, establish the destiny for the people, open peace for the world, and make great contributions!

The sun, the moon, the mountains and the rivers will always be there! The Han Dynasty will last forever!

Today, I will use the sword of my Liu family! To suppress the border of the Han Dynasty!

From now on! The foreign races in the Western Regions should respect the Han people!

After saying that, Liu Yao pulled out the Tang horizontal sword from his waist, half-knelt on the ground, and inserted the sword directly into the center of the altar.

"I know clearly that the paths of people are not replicable!"

I am walking on my own life path!

Even if the wind and rain on the road are strong.

So strong that I have difficulty walking.

Even if there are thorns everywhere.

I was stabbed with wounds all over.

But even so!

Today! I also want this sword to suppress the fate of the foreign race forever!

Liu Yao slowly stood up. This time they galloped thousands of miles, drove straight into the desert, killed tens of thousands of enemies, and did not take any prisoners.

And Meng Tie was taken directly back to the garrison.

In front of Hu Yanlan and other surrendered Xianbei, Xiongnu, and Wuhuan people, he was publicly tried and immediately executed.

Just when Liu Yao was about to lead the army back to Bingzhou, the situation suddenly changed. Wang Yue came on the wind, carrying an indescribable heavy news.

Gongsun Zan died in the battle...

Everyone present was shocked.

Gongsun Xu's face froze instantly, and his eyes flashed with an unbelievable light, staring at Wang Yue, as if he wanted to find a glimmer of hope from him, even the most slim hope.

"How could this be? My father has already set out on his journey home. Youzhou should be his place of residence. How could it be..."

His voice trembled, and every word was as heavy as a thousand pounds. He didn't want to believe it, but he had to face this cruel reality.

Wang Yue sighed lightly, and a trace of worry and sorrow gathered between his brows. He slowly said

"After returning to Youzhou, General Gongsun wanted to quell the chaos with thunderous means, but he unexpectedly encountered an unprecedented challenge. Liu Yu's old subordinates, loyal souls have not dispersed, and they swear to fight to the death. With the help of Yuan Shao, they are even more powerful. The two joined forces, like a storm, violently attacking the defense line of Youzhou, and finally..."

His voice paused slightly at this moment, as if even the air was filled with a sad atmosphere.

"More than 10,000 cavalrymen have been wiped out, and the White Horse Volunteers have been completely destroyed."

Gongsun Xu seemed to have lost all his strength in an instant, his legs trembled involuntarily, and then became weak. If Zhang Liao had not been quick to hold him steady, he would have fallen to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

"Father... Father..."

His voice trembled, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, full of endless grief and resentment.

"Yuan Shao! I, Gongsun Xu, swear to take your head with my own hands, eat your flesh, and sleep on your skin, only then can I relieve the hatred in my heart!" His eyes were bloodshot, like two burning flames, and the curse in his mouth was like an icy blade, every word piercing his bones.

Tian Feng saw this, frowned, and said in deep thought:

"General Gongsun's cavalry are all experienced warriors, and they are supported by the famous White Horse Volunteers. How could they end up like this? The whole army was annihilated. It is hard to believe."

Wang Yue continued:

Yuan Shao had a general named Ju Yi. In this battle, he personally led the famous vanguard, like an iron wall and copper wall. At the beginning, he trapped Gongsun Zan's elite troops in a corner of the battle and made them unable to move. "

"Then the rebels in Youzhou blocked their retreat, attacked from front and back, and the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and they fell into a desperate situation. "

"By the time our people arrived, General Gongsun had already burned himself to death."

Liu Yao smacked his lips, his expression a little complicated.

Even if Gongsun Zan relied on the White Horse Volunteers' cavalry and archery, even if the cavalry was completely annihilated, It can also turn defeat into victory.

It's a pity that Gongsun Zan's character is too strong. He didn't listen to what he said at all. He was too stubborn.

Gongsun Zan always thought that he was stronger than Yuan Shao, ever since Liu Yao defeated Yuan Shao outside Luoyang.

However, the world is like chess. Gongsun Zan never expected that Yuan Shao would quietly transform on the fertile land of Jizhou, like a dormant dragon and snake. Once he gained power, he would be a great force and should not be underestimated.

Now he has gathered a lot of elite soldiers and generals under his command. Ju Yi, Han Meng, Yan Liang are all well-known people.

He also has counselors such as Guo Tu and Xu You to assist him.

As for the Xiandeng Camp and the Daji soldiers, they are the elite among the elite. They are wearing heavy armor, holding sharp weapons, charging into battle, and invincible. Such a formationEven if Gongsun Zan led the army in person, he would have to think twice before acting, let alone confronting him head-on.

Just when everyone was still feeling melancholy, Tian Kai, a subordinate of Gongsun Zan, ran out of the tent covered in blood.

"General Liu! Young Master! I am incompetent!!!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yao's figure trembled, and he quickly stepped out of the gloomy military tent. The night seemed to tremble with it, as if even the air froze for a moment

"Tian Kai? Where are the others?" Tian Kai shook his head and said, "General Gongsun... He is trapped in a siege, attacked from both sides, and in a critical moment, he only asked me to hand this blood letter to you, with high hopes. ""

After speaking, Liu Yao's hands trembled slightly, and he slowly took the letter soaked in blood. The bright red was like a flame, burning his heart.

He took a deep breath, as if to absorb all the anxiety and determination into his chest, and then, with his fingers slightly opened, he carefully unfolded the letter that carried a heavy weight.

In the letter, although the handwriting was a little sloppy, every word was of great weight and hit the heart directly:

"Brother Ziyi, I am writing to you. Now I am being plotted against by treacherous villains and my life is hanging by a thread. The grudges will be settled in the future. I am unable to take care of Xu'er's affairs, and I hope you will take care of it. Tian Kai is loyal and brave. From now on, he will be your capable general. I hope you will use him well.

In addition, my son is still young, but he has shown his manliness. I hope you will tell him that when he is fully grown, he will kill Yuan for me. Shao, avenge this great hatred. If this wish comes true, I will die without regrets.

In addition, my son is still young, but he has already shown his manly qualities. I hope you can tell him that when he grows up, he will kill Yuan Shao for me and avenge this great hatred. If this wish comes true, I will die without regrets.

Brother, Gongsun Zan's last letter.

After reading it, Liu Yao handed the letter to Gongsun Xu.

"Hey... Tian Kai, go get treatment first and have a good rest. From now on, you will follow Gongsun Xu as his deputy general."

After saying that, Liu Yao waved to Zhang Liao and others, signaling everyone to step aside and leave space for Gongsun Xu alone.
