Chapter 526: Feeding the Tiger with Meat
Liu Bei went out of the city, rode his horse and hurried to catch up with Guan Yu. "Yun Chang, don't worry."
Guan Yu carried a thousand troops in one hand, strangled his mount, and looked at Liu Bei in puzzlement. "Xuande, could it be that you have any good tactics?" Without waiting for Liu Bei to speak, he smiled again: "I know that you have watched Sun Ce all night and have some experience, but the shape of a soldier is like water, and it cannot be generalized." He was stubborn that day, but we took the initiative today, and we can't do it rigidly, otherwise we won't be able to learn from the tiger. ”
Liu Bei nodded, glanced back at his little Huangcheng hundreds of steps away, and was about to speak, but when he saw Jian Yong coming over, he was stunned for a while, and then he was overjoyed. "Xianhe, why are you here?"
Guan Yu's face turned cold, snorted, and turned his head to ignore it. Zhang Fei was overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted him, overjoyed. "Xianhe, I knew you weren't that kind of person."
"I'm afraid people don't like it." Guan Yu sneered: "Come to be a prison army? ”
"Cloud Chief!" Liu Bei was angry. Jian Yong is his township party and has followed him all the way here. He can see clearly these days that Sun Ce is very polite to Jian Yong, and he does have the heart to solicit, but Jian Yong did not disappoint him. Guan Yu's accusation is completely unreasonable.
Guan Yu closed his mouth and turned away. When Jian Yong saw it, he sighed secretly, but he couldn't say anything. "I'm here to lead the way for Xuande."
Liu Bei nodded again and again. "You've come just in time, and I have something to discuss with you. Xianhe, General Sun broke through this time, and the attack on the camp was just containment, so you shouldn't take it too seriously, right? As he spoke, he gave Jian Yong a look.
Jian Yong understood and echoed: "What Xuande said is extremely true, but it is not comprehensive. ”
"Oh?"
"Xuande, do you know what General Sun thinks of Xuande?"
Liu Bei's heart moved slightly, his eyes flickered, he pondered for a moment, and shook his head. Jian Yong said: "Xuande may not guess that General Sun attaches great importance to you, although he didn't say it explicitly, but between words, he regarded you as a friend or foe. ”
Liu Bei's heart was beating faster. He had always felt that Sun Ce was very hostile to him, but he couldn't understand why. He used to be an enemy of Sun Ce, but he was defeated by Sun Ce twice, and this time he was directly captured. Sun Ce often mocked him to his face, not hiding his disdain at all, and his hostility was obvious. But Jian Yong said that Sun Ce regarded him as a friend, which was a little incomprehensible. What exactly does Jian Yong want to say?
"Xianhe, where do I dare to be a friend of General Sun, even if I am an enemy, I am not qualified enough, I am a defeated general under him."
Jian Yong shook his head. "General Sun regards you as a friend because you are from similar backgrounds. General Sun regards you as an enemy because you have great ambitions and the help of warriors like Yun Chang and Yide, although you have a difficult start, you may be able to achieve something in the future and become his opponent. ”
"Really?" Liu Bei touched his smooth chin and smiled without saying a word. Guan Yu turned his head and was skeptical. "Does he really think so?"
"Yun Chang, we know each other in many places, why bother to lie to you? Are you a deceitful man? ”
Guan Yu grinned, and his smugness flashed.
Jian Yong said again: "General Sun knew that Xuande had great ambitions and refused to live under the people for a long time, and wanted to recruit but could not get it, so he retreated and wanted to recruit Yide, but was politely rejected by Yide. He knew that Yun Changzhongyi was too virtuous, and even if he spoke, there would be no results, so he simply gave up this thought. ”
Guan Yu was even more proud, and it was rare to show a smile. "He's funny."
"Yun Chang, then do you know why he let you take the lead?"
"Why?"
"He knows that Xuande will leave sooner or later, and you and Yide will definitely follow, and it is impossible for them to become his subordinates, so he wants you and Yuan Tan to fight to the death. Two tigers fight, there must be an injury, although Yuan Tan is not as brave as Yun Chang, but he has many generals, if Yun Chang does not notice for a while, the lone army goes deep, and there is a loss, you can break Xuande's arm. ”
Guan Yu was dismissive. "Yuan Tan, how can you hurt me. Well, I know what you mean, don't rush in. ”
"Yun Chang is wise."
Guan Yu laughed and kicked the horse forward. Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief, raised his thumb to Jian Yong, and whispered: "Xianhe, Yun Chang and Yide are my right-hand men, and you are my tongue." If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know how to persuade Yun Chang. He looked at the five hundred soldiers behind him and sighed lightly: "One of these five hundred people is my old department in Dongjun, and there is still loyalty at all, but the rest of the people are Jiang Qi's old department, and taking them to attack Yuan Tan is tantamount to feeding a tiger with meat, how can there be any chance of victory." ”
Jian Yong also sighed. If it weren't for knowing the danger involved, how could he have rushed here despite Sun Ce's suspicions. But he was still worried, Guan Yu's temper was too clear to him, don't look at what he said now, the two armies will fight later, and when he sees the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, he may not know what it will look like. Where did Sun Ce want to recruit Guan Yu but couldn't, he didn't want to recruit Guan Yu at all.
Maybe...... It would be a good thing to let Guan Yu die in the formation. This thought flashed, and Jian Yong himself was taken aback, and quickly shook his head and threw this thought out of his mind.
Liu Bei and the others came to Yuan Tan's camp and stood up, Guan Yu was about to step forward to challenge, but was stopped by Liu Bei. Liu Bei arranged for a trustworthy song of soldiers to line up in front, and the newly recruited song was led by Zhang Fei, retreating to about two hundred steps behind, ready to respond at any time, he took fifty personal guards to dispatch in the center, which allowed Guan Yu to lead ten soldiers to challenge.
Guan Yu was a little impatient, feeling that Liu Bei was making a fuss, but he was patient and didn't have anything to say. As soon as Liu Bei's words fell, he kicked the war horse violently and galloped forward. When he came to the camp, he ordered ten soldiers to hold torches and surround him like stars holding the moon, and loudly invite him to fight.
The soldiers in the battalion beat the drums of war to give alarm, and the soldiers of the former battalion rushed out of the big tent one after another, lined up in the battalion, and prepared for battle.
Captain Jiao walked out of the big tent, came to the camp gate, glanced at the situation, and scolded: "Damn Youzhou'er, you actually have the face to challenge, do you know how to write the word shame?" Someone, shoot this traitor to death! ”
With a loud shout, more than 100 crossbowmen shot a rain of arrows.
Seeing that the camp gate was closed and a group of crossbowmen hugged behind the camp fence, Guan Yu knew that the heads-up he expected would not appear, so he scolded "rat generation" and kicked his horse and rushed forward. As soon as he rushed out more than ten steps, his horse was shot with several arrows, and he fell to the ground with a scream. Guan Yu was also hit by two arrows, but he didn't take it seriously at all, holding a special iron shield in front of him, and he rushed to the ground with a thousand troops.
The arrows were shot on the iron shield, Ding Dang rang out, and sparks splashed everywhere, but they couldn't stop Guan Yu's charge. He is tall and has long legs, one step is worth two steps of ordinary people, he threw more than ten subordinates out of the distance, ran to the front of the camp trench alone, jumped up, jumped over the camp trench that was more than a foot wide, and came to the camp fence.
"Smack!" Two spears stretched out of the camp fence were broken by the iron shield, a spearman could not hold the spear, his hands were wiped off a layer of skin, and he screamed in pain, but his screams did not last long, the bolt of the camp gate with a thick arm was broken by Guan Yu, the camp gate was opened, Guan Yu broke in, and the thousand troops broke head-on, and split the spear in half with a knife.
"Good knives!" Guan Yu was overjoyed, raised a thousand troops to break, and roared loudly: "This knife is in hand, and a thousand troops can be broken!" ”
