Chapter 384: Martial Saint's Sword

Yan Pu is first of all a strategist, a lifetime of statecraft, full of poetry and books, all in his mind, his primary idea must be to be loyal to the king and serve the country, to get a good reputation, so Cao Xing immediately expected that Yan Pu would eventually surrender to him, and the facts were just as he expected.

After accepting Yan Pu, Cao Xing was overjoyed, arranged a series of deployment defenses in Hanzhong, and then prepared to return to Luoyang.

However, on the way back to Luoyang, Cao Xuan received a letter, opened the letter and looked at it, Cao Xuan was involuntarily stunned, he pondered for a moment, and finally issued an order to Chen Hu next to him.

At the same time, Cao Xuan also sent Jinyiwei to inquire about the news in all directions, and Jinyiwei, a huge organization, had already installed its own eyeliner in the major Guo Jiajian in the Central Plains, so Chewu's information also came very quickly.

When Cao Xing was competing with Zhang Lu, Liu Yan and others, in fact, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were also in full swing.

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were both powerful princes in the north, each occupying three prefectures and counties, and because of their geographical location close to the border, there were times of friction. So sooner or later, the two of them will have a fight, of course, because of Cao Xing's crossing, some things have changed, but they have also participated in some things, Cao Xing is also very unlucky, and he must join the sequence of this struggle, but this is also a helpless thing, and now this kind of trouble has not found Cao Xing's head, but Cao Xing feels that he is about to get involved.

The first is that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao once again had a border conflict, Cao Cao was a little annoyed this time, as the saying goes, clay people have three points of anger, not to mention the traitorous male Cao Cao.

Reconciliation is only short-lived, only the annexation of the other party may be the real mind of the two of them, so the two once again had a fierce confrontation, Yuan Shao directly sent his general, Yan Liangwen Chou, into battle, and once again led troops to attack.

And Cao Cao was not to be outdone, and also sent his own generals to meet the battle, as a result, Cao Cao's so-called generals, whether it was Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Yu Jing, Li Dian and others, were all beaten by Yan Liangwen and Chou, and for a while, Yan Liangwen and Chou led their troops to cross the border line and capture Cao Cao's five cities.

Speaking of this matter, in fact, Yuan Shao did a little too much, and it was okay to clean up Cao Cao, but now that he has invaded the territory of someone else's Wei State, this matter is a little troublesome. However, Yuan Shao didn't care about this at all, being able to occupy the territory of Wei was called ability, who called Cao Cao inferior to people.

However, it is Yuan Shao's indifferent attitude that completely makes Cao ** anxious, since he Yuan Benchu wants to play to the end, then he Cao Cao can only accompany him.

Cao Cao immediately summoned his subordinates to discuss countermeasures, and as soon as Cao Cao came, he looked at his generals, and the top priority was to clean up Yan Liangwen and Chou. He asked which generals would dare to fight?

Xu Chu and Dian Wei glanced at each other, and came out in response, Cao Cao saw Xu Chu and Dian Wei coming out, and he was very relieved, but at the same time, there was also a touch of worry in his heart, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were the two of the strongest in his army, and it seemed very appropriate to ask the two of them to deal with Yan Liangwen and Chou, but at the same time, Cao Cao also had a worry in the depths of his heart, that is, Yuan Shao was too strong, in case the tiger was obsessed and did not win together, then what should be done, and when the time comes, it will definitely be a fatal blow to the morale of the army.

Just when Cao Cao hesitated, seeing his advisor Xun Yu, he suddenly came out and said to Cao Cao: "King, have you forgotten that the person is still being placed by me personally, but he has nothing to do!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he suddenly patted his head, and seemed to remember that in fact, this matter was a little long, and it was related to Liu Bei's escape.

Liu Bei was defeated by Lu Bu and took refuge in Cao Cao, originally Liu Bei at that time also felt that life was very confused, although he had great ambitions, but now he has reached this point, he doesn't know where to go.

However, at that time, Liu Bei encountered a small opportunity and gained the trust of Xiahou Yuan, the Taishou of Xuzhou at that time, so he became the commander of the front line, but later because of Cao Xing's calculations, he finally had to break away from Wei.

Liu Bei broke away from the Wei State, it seems that Cao Xing single-handedly designed, and finally Jia Xu moved Liu Bei with his three-inch incorruptible tongue, but this is also related to Liu Bei himself, take Jia Xu as an example, Jia Xu is best at figuring out people's minds, Yang Yan in Hanzhong was moved by Jia Xu easily, only because Jia Xu grabbed his weakness, knew that Yang Yan liked money, and promised so many benefits, so Yang Yan finally agreed.

At that time, Jia Xu also saw that Liu Bei, although he sent people under the fence, he still had an unwilling heart, otherwise he would not meet people and say that I was the queen of the Han family, the queen of Zhongshan Jingwang and so on.

Therefore, Jia Xu expected that Liu Bei also had a heart for hegemony, but before the time came, he blocked the road for Liu Bei, and Liu Bei could only go north to join Yuan Shao.

Although Liu Bei fled quickly, Liu Bei seemed to forget that there was another person in Xuzhou at that time, that was Guo Jia, Guo Jia's policy was to believe that he would rather believe what he had, not what he didn't believe, and the matter of betraying the front-line generals was too big, so when Guo Jia came, he didn't think about it, and he wanted to ask Liu Bei for clarification, and he would arrest him first.

Liu Bei's escape was expected by Guo Jia, and Guo Jia at that time was not thinking about how to blame Xiahou Yuan, but should make the best deployment as quickly as possible to minimize the loss.

Originally, Liu Bei's escape speed was fast enough, and he had already reached the territory of Zhao State, but Liu Bei still had one thing missing, that is, when he escaped, he was so fast that he left his son and wife behind.

This seems to have become a common thing for Liu Bei, after all, Liu Bei in the Three Kingdoms also has a famous saying, Liu Bei doesn't care if he loses his wife and son, but some people care very much, that is, Guan Yu, who has always attached importance to affection, is his sister-in-law and nephew, and he must not fall into the hands of the enemy like this.

Therefore, Guan Yu, who had escaped immediately, turned back directly, ready to save Liu Bei's wife and children, Guo Jia learned the news, did not hesitate, and immediately sent someone to block Guan Yu's way, Guan Yu relied on his super high martial arts, led the personal soldiers around him, and temporarily repelled the Wei army, but Guan Yu was still trapped on a mountain.

Guo Jia sent the news to Cao Cao, Cao Cao had heard of Guan Yu's reputation before, and saw that Guan Yu was so loyal, which was a popular style at that time, Cao Cao was moved and sent someone to persuade him, and Guan Yu finally agreed to take refuge in Cao Cao.

Guan Yu's move was also a helpless move, after all, he and Liu Bei's wife and children were trapped in the mountains, with no food and no water, and it was difficult for them to starve to death in the end.

Although Guan Yu surrendered, but he finally adhered to his integrity, he said that he stayed here, just stayed in Cao Cao, not to surrender Cao, if he waited for his eldest brother to have news, he would definitely go to his eldest brother again, Cao Cao immediately agreed, after all, Cao Cao respected Guan Yu because of this matter.

Now that Cao Cao is in trouble, when Guan Yu repays the favor, it seems that it is almost coming, Cao Cao finds Guan Yu to explain the situation to Guan Yu, Guan Yu stands up without saying a word, and touches his three-foot beard.

"Cao Gong, retreat too much, I, Guan Mou, am willing to be the vanguard and block Yan Liangwen's ugly soldiers for you!"

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, but there were still some people on the Wei side, who didn't believe that Guan Yu was alone, and he was a person who surrendered, so he could do anything big.

Let Guan Yu go, it's better to let Xu Chu Dianwei and the two of them go, maybe the chance of winning is greater.

Although many people expressed their disbelief in Guan Yu's ability, on the battlefield, when Guan Yu remounted his war horse and picked up his Qinglong Glaive Knife, he directly showed his strength to the world again.

Cutting Yan Liang, Zhu Wen Chou can be said to be an easy thing, Guan Yu cut these two generals with a knife, it can be said that all the people on Zhao Guo's side were shocked, but they didn't expect the two mighty bosses to die so easily, which is really amazing.

When Cao Cao learned that the news was supported, he laughed heartily, after all, he was excited to solve Yuan Shao's two generals, but Yuan Shao was a little angry.

It is said that when Yuan Shao heard the news, his first reaction was not to believe it, but the battle reports came one after another, and Yuan Shao couldn't help but not believe it, Yuan Shao stayed in place for a long time, he couldn't figure it out, why his two generals died in the hands of a Guan Yu, Guan Yu is powerful, but why can he cut his two pioneers with one knife, of course, he will not understand, Guan Yu's explosive power is extremely strong, especially his first three knives, it is estimated that Yan Liangwen Chou did not put Guan Yu in his eyes at the beginning, That's why they will be beheaded under the horse.

All the civil and military officials of the Zhao State were shocked by this time, but before they could react, Yuan Shao had already begun to roar at them. The thing that Yuan Shao roared about was also very simple, that is, why it was like this, this was not the result he Yuan originally wanted.

As soon as Yan Liangwen died, Guan Yu took advantage of the situation. easily recaptured the city that Zhao State had taken, and even broke into the border of Zhao State, and Zhao State's army was crushed by Guan Yu at the touch of a button, which was the thing that made Yan Liangwen the most angry.

Seeing Yuan Shao's angry appearance, Tian Feng and other strategists wanted to go up and persuade them, but only a few cities were nothing, compared with the entire Zhao State, the top priority now was not to get angry indiscriminately, but to find a way to save the morale of the army.

Even Yan Liangwen and Chou were the generals of King Zhao before, and King Zhao should hold a beautiful funeral for the two of them, so as to conform to the identities of the two of them and regain the confidence of the soldiers.

However, with Yuan Shao's character, how could he take these things to heart, Yan Liangwen and Chou are certainly brave, they have followed Yuan Shao for a long time and made great achievements for him, so what, for him Yuan Shao, it is just the death of two insignificant people, he Yuan Shao is the lord of the world, how can he waste time because of this trivial matter. Therefore, Yuan Shaowu directly angrily issued his first order, that is, to gather the whole country's troops, and he wanted to fight Cao Cao to the death.

Frustrated with Tian Feng and other strategists, Ben Haixiang persuaded again, because it is not the best time to turn his face with Wei at this moment, both of them are big northern powers, once there is a firefight, it will definitely be an earth-shattering battle, but Yuan Shao really doesn't care so much. directly gave an order, and even some courtiers who could observe words and feelings, such as Guo Tu Fengji and others, saw that Yuan Shao was so angry, and took the opportunity to say to Yuan Shao.

It was Guan Yu who killed Yan Liangwen and the ugly, and Guan Yu's eldest brother Liu Bei happened to be in the barracks again, or he would arrest Liu Bei and ask for the crime.

When Yuan Shao heard this, he felt that he could, so he ordered someone to drag Liu Bei out violently, when Guo Tu Fengji came to find Liu Bei, Liu Bei was still very worried, when he saw Yuan Shao facing Yuan Shao's questioning, Liu Bei chose to be silent, and after a while, Liu Bei suddenly suggested to Yuan Shao.

"Yan Liangwen is not as ugly as my second brother, it is better to send me to think about the second brother, in this way, King Zhao will increase his strength!"

Yuan Shao wanted to kill Liu Bei angrily, but when he heard Liu Bei say this, he still felt that there was some truth, so he waved his hand, approved Liu Bei's request, and directly let Liu Bei go out and recruited Guan Yu to come.

However, with Yuan Shao's knowledge, he would not know that Liu Bei was going, and it was estimated that it would be permanent.

When Liu Bei walked on the road, his eyes began to become more and more cold, and at this moment, he couldn't help but think of the rumor in his mind.

Liu Bang's resurrection of the corpse was attached to his Liu Bei's body, and he Liu Bei was determined to learn from Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, to kill the White Snake Uprising and regain domination of the world.

Thinking of this, a flame burned in Liu Bei's heart, this flame is not the first time it has burned in Cao Xing's heart, since Liu Bei joined the army, this flame has been burning in his heart, so he said that he is a descendant of the Han family, and he has this self-confidence.

Although for a long time, he Liu Bei has won less and lost more, and this self-confidence has been defeated by ruthless reality many times, but every time he is defeated, he will eventually come back and become stronger than usual, this is him Liu Bei, who has been defeated again and again, and dares to fight again and again, just ask the world, who has such courage as him.

This time, Liu Bei brought his third brother and a newly recruited general, named Zhao Yun, Liu Bei also touched Zhao Yun with his sincerity, so Zhao Yun was willing to follow.

As for where Liu Bei should go on this trip, his advisor Sun Qian had already thought about it before, Liu Bei was a relative of the Han family, why not go to Liu Biao, Jingzhou, where Liu Biao was stationed, was a good place, Liu Bei thought about it for a while, and then nodded in agreement, anyway, he was ready to leave Yuan Shao, and he didn't dare to go to Cao Cao, Cao Xing didn't accept it, Jiangdong Sun Ce didn't say that the distance was too far, just said that Liu Bei only felt that Sun Ce was a junior, so how could he go to him, so he could only go to Liu Biao.
