Guan Yu was relieved when he heard Yuan Yao mention these trapped soldiers, what he was most worried about now was these thousands of soldiers, if he lost these soldiers here for nothing, then he really had no shame to go to see Liu Bei again!

Guan Yu's tone softened, and he said: "I naturally want to take these soldiers away, I don't know what the general wants?" ”

Yuan Yao stretched out his hand and pointed at the trapped Xuzhou soldiers, and said: "The families and relatives of these soldiers are all in Xuzhou, so I naturally don't want to keep them, but although these soldiers have not surrendered yet, they have been forced to a desperate situation by our army's iron cavalry, and they can basically be equated with prisoners of our army, does the general think so?" ”

As long as Yuan Yao gave an order, thousands of iron horsemen and thousands of arrows fired in unison, and then hit the horses and rushed to kill, they could shoot the thousands of Xuzhou soldiers to death with arrows or drive them into Huaishui, even if Guan Yu had the courage of an overlord, he would be difficult to rescue!

In the face of such a situation, Guan Yu could no longer quibble, sighed, bowed to Yuan Yao, and said: "The rear general is like a god, Guan admires!" I don't know how the general wants to act, but please say it bluntly, as long as Guan can do it, he will definitely agree! ”

Yuan Yao saw that Guan Yu finally relented, chuckled, and replied: "General Guan is polite, I can return these sergeants to the general, but the reason why I was able to win this battle by luck is because the soldiers fought to the death with their lives, and I can't bury their credit!" General Guan, what do you think of this, there is a lack of war horses in my Jianghuai land, which is far less convenient than your coming from the north, so how about you ransom these soldiers with war horses? ”

When Guan Yu heard Yuan Yao's words, a cold light flashed in his eyes, the war horse is the lifeblood of the army, how can he use it as a ransom?

You must know that there is no place to raise horses in Xuzhou, and there is also a fixed number of war horses under Liu Bei's command, if there is a loss, he will not be able to replenish it, except for some of the war horses in Liu Bei's army are from Cao Cao, the rest are from the 'ally' Yuan Shao in exchange for money and grain at a high price!

In Guan Yu's heart, the value of these sergeants is far less precious than that of War Horse!

However, Guan Yu was speechless at this time, you must know that Yuan Yao's words were said in front of the army, if Guan Yu dared not agree, I am afraid that the soldiers and horses under his command would immediately be in chaos and fall apart!

Yuan Yao's words can be said to have forced Guan Yu into a corner, Guan Yu's face changed several times, but in the end, his face turned gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Then I don't know how the general plans to let Guan Mou redeem it?" ”

Yuan Yao was about to go crazy if he wanted a war horse now, he didn't care what Guan Yu's face was, and replied with a smile: "I originally planned to let the general exchange two war horses for a sergeant, but I have always respected the people of Xuande Gong and General Guan, so I will reduce the ransom by half, and the general only needs to exchange one war horse for a sergeant!" ”

Why not exchange two horses for a sergeant? Why don't you cut the ransom in half?

Guan Yu heard that Yuan Yao dared to open his mouth so loudly, and even his lungs were about to explode, you must know that the market of war horses has skyrocketed to eight to ten gold horses, and this price is still priceless!

The price of the war horse that Liu Bei bought from Yuan Shao had already exceeded the price of ten gold horses!

Now the market of war horses is now skyrocketing, but what about the price of human life?

In troubled times, human life is like grass mustard, as long as you have money and food in your hands, and give the homeless people a bite to eat, you can recruit people everywhere!

Guan Yu was furious in his heart, and he opened his mouth to refute Yuan Yao, Yuan Yao didn't wait for Guan Yu to speak, and preemptively said: "I have heard that the general is loyal and unparalleled, since the general is so hesitant, then I will take a step back!" I can release these sergeants to the general, and then send the horses after the general crosses the river!" I've already shown such sincerity, I guess the generals won't say anything else, right? ”

Yuan Yao's words made Guan Yu only swallow back the words that had just come to his mouth, and this time Guan Yu was about to suffocate internal injuries!

Guan Yu glanced at the soldiers behind him, and saw that all the soldiers were looking at him expectantly, and he also understood the thoughts of the soldiers, although in his eyes these soldiers were not as valuable as war horses, but in their own eyes, their lives were priceless!

Guan Yu glanced at Yuan Yao viciously, and knew that he had no way to change this ending, since this was the case, it was better to be clean and neat, so as to stabilize the army's heart!

Guan Yu is also a decisive person, and after making a decision, he replied loudly: "The soldiers under a certain command are all my Guan Mou's life and death brothers, even if the general wants to exchange my life for their lives, it is okay!" Now the general just wants some war horses, what a point! Please also ask the general to release these sergeants with me, and when I cross the river, he will send the war horses to the general! ”

"Good! General Guan is really happy to do things! ”

Yuan Yao praised Guan Yu with a smile, then turned his head to look at Yue Yun and Yang Zaixing, and ordered in a loud voice: "Order, retreat five miles, so that General Guan can cross the river!" ”

Yue Yun and Yang Zaixing both saw that Yuan Yao had not counted the number of these sergeants, so they directly ordered the withdrawal of the army, both hesitated, Yuan Yao looked at Guan Yu with a smile, and shouted: "General Guan, I will wait for the general to send the war horse five miles away, I want to come with the general's reputation and pride, I shouldn't be greedy for the war horse that Yuan deserves, right?" ”

Guan Yu saw that Yuan Yao was doing things so magnificently and trusted him so much, and he also had a little admiration in his heart, and said with a complicated expression: "General Hou can rest assured that Guan will definitely send over a lot of the war horses that the general deserves!" ”

Yuan Yao nodded and smiled, looked at Yue Yun and the others, and said, "General Guan has promised, what else are you worried about, don't order the withdrawal of troops quickly!" ”

Seeing this, Yue Yun and the others hurriedly ordered the withdrawal of the army, and Yuan Yao's iron cavalry slowly retreated behind Yuan Yao, Yuan Yao bowed his hand to Guan Yu slightly, and then turned around and galloped away five miles away.

Guan Yu looked at Yuan Yaojun's iron cavalry in the distance, sighed, and then ordered all the soldiers to assemble and prepare to cross the river.

The soldiers of the Xuzhou army were already very grateful when they heard Guan Yu say that he was willing to exchange his own life for them, and now when they saw that Guan Yu really handed them back with a war horse, they were even more grateful in their hearts, and they fell to the ground one after another, shouting loudly: "I am incompetent, and the tired general is humiliated!" The general is benevolent and righteous, saving our lives, and we are willing to die for the general!! ”

Guan Yu saw that the heart of the army was condensed, and he was quite surprised, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, please get up quickly, this time it was Guan who was too careless to fall for Yuan Yao'er's ambush, so that the army was tired of losing troops and losing generals, and you were humiliated in vain!" This time, Guan can't stand everyone, and in the future, I will definitely lead you to defeat Yuan Yao to take revenge! ”

"The general must not be so ,......"
