"Yu Ban, don't you want to be caught?" Zhou Cang was originally in an ambush outside the east gate, but what he caught were some deserters, and he was hesitating, but he heard the sound of shouting and killing here, and immediately left a team of people to watch the east gate, and led people to meet the direction where the shouting and killing sound came from, and he was blocking the ban.

Zhou Cang recognized Yu Ban, and Yu Ban naturally recognized Zhou Cang, and the moment he saw Zhou Cang, his heart was half cold.

It's just that it is impossible to stop at this moment, Yu Ban gritted his teeth, raised his sword, and shouted: "Kill!" ”

The brave wins when the narrow road meets, at this time Yu Ban is already in a desperate situation, the rear is Guan Yu's army, Yu Ban knows that he is invincible, but Zhou Cang does not lead many soldiers and horses, desperate to the death, breaking through may not be impossible!

"Look for death!" Seeing this, Zhou Cang's rough face, the smile gradually became hideous, brandishing the newly arrived big knife, regardless of others, he went straight to Yu Ban, and raised his hand to split Huashan with one move!

Yu Ban mustered up his courage at this moment, and when he saw this, he did not dodge or dodge, and swung his sword to meet him.

"Bang~"

With a muffled sound, Yu Ban only felt a terrifying force surging from the opponent's blade, and he couldn't help it, so he had to step out of the way.

"Come here!" Zhou Cang took the opportunity to grab Yu Ban's back collar and dragged it back, and Yu Ban's foothold was unstable, so he was dragged to the ground by Zhou Cang.

Yu Ban is the commander of the army, although the martial arts are also good, but most of them are immediate kung fu, and now there is no war horse, which is the opponent of Zhou Cang, who is good at foot combat generals?

He was about to swing his sword and slash with his backhand, but he was stepped on by Zhou Cang, and he rubbed it vigorously, and Yu Ban's face twisted in pain.

The Cao army that followed Yu Ban had already been killed by the men and horses brought by Zhou Cang, how could there be spare strength to save Yu Ban, and when Yu Ban was captured, the remnants of Cao's army had already been defeated.

By the time Guan Yu led the Chinese army to arrive, the war was already over, and Yu Ban was cut off by Zhou Cang and escorted to Guan Yu.

"Get on your knees!" Zhou Cang kicked Yu Ban.

Yu Ban's body staggered, gritted his teeth and glared at Guan Yu.

"Don't insult him." Guan Yu frowned and waved his hand.

When he was in Cao Cao's place in the past, the generals of Cao Ying had a good relationship with him, and now they meet on the battlefield, and they can be regarded as their masters, but since they were captured, Guan Yu didn't want to force each other too much.

"Whoa!" When Zhou Cang heard this, he promised to let people be banned.

"It seems that Wen Ze will not fall." Guan Yu looked at Yu Ban and said indifferently.

"Please behead me!" Yu Ban shook his head.

"Take it down, take care of it, and when I break through Xiangyang, I'll do it again!" Guan Yu was silent for a moment, then shook his head after all.

Yu Ban He didn't want to kill for the time being.

"The external meeting will say that the text has been lowered!" At the end, Guan Yu looked at Yu Bandao.

"You...... Will the prince also use such tricks? Yu Banyan glared at Guan Yu angrily, Guan Yu did this, it was better to kill him, not only would his reputation be lost, but the family members who stayed in Yecheng might be killed directly! When the time comes, what choice does he have but to demote Liu Bei?

"Soldiers don't get tired of cheating!" Guan Yu frowned and glanced at Yu Ban, not understanding why he reacted so much: "If you surrender, Xiangyang's morale will inevitably be low, and now that you are a prisoner, I didn't force you to surrender, just borrowed your name." ”

Yu Ban: "......"

All of a sudden, I don't know how to answer?

Say no-borrow? It seems that I can't help myself.

"Take it down." Guan Yu saw Yu Ban's tangled expression, a little unclear, waved his hand, signaled the guards to remove his armor, and then temporarily imprisoned in Fancheng, and when he broke through Xiangyang, he would be handed over to Liu Bei to deal with.

"Whoa!"

"Junhou, Fancheng is down, and the attack on Xiangyang is just around the corner!" Zhou Cang looked at Guan Yu and said, he broke through Fancheng in two days, this record is not weak, not to mention that the opponent is still Cao Jun's famous general.

"Order the three armies to withdraw from Fancheng, not to disturb the people, rest outside the city for a day, and attack Xiangyang tomorrow!" Guan Yu smiled when he heard this.

"Whoa!"

Zhou Cang received the order to collect his troops, and the soldiers and horses that attacked Fancheng slowly withdrew from Fancheng under the command of generals at all levels.

Early the next morning, Guan Yu crossed the river and arrived at the city of Xiangyang and launched a tentative attack on Xiangyang.

The defense of Xiangyang City is not comparable to Fancheng, not only the moat is more than three zhang wide, the defenders in the city are sufficient, even if there are ladders, trebuchets and other siege weapons, the range of bows and arrows is better than that of the defenders, but Li Dian has been prepared.

It is true that Yu Ban knew that Fancheng was difficult to defend before, and he had sent someone to sneak into Xiangyang at night to explain the benefits of Jingzhou's military armor clearly, and Yu Ban had some experience, Guan Yu waved his troops to attack for a day, although he could gain the upper hand, but it was difficult to suppress like Fancheng.

As long as Guan Yu's long-range weapons bombarded him, Li Dian directly asked people to hide behind the women's wall.

As long as the Jingzhou army is close to the city wall, it will directly throw the rolling wood and stone prepared in advance, and wait for the opponent's bow and arrow to stop for a while, and let the archers release the arrows.

A good siege war was played by Li Dian into a guerrilla war, Guan Yu saw that it was difficult to conquer in a hurry, so he ordered the troops to be collected, raised the account, and asked the generals what strategies they had to break the enemy?

……

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Guan Yu sat on the top of the handsome position, and under him, Wen Ping, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua, and Ma Liang were separated on both sides.

The joy of attacking Fancheng has dissipated a lot at this moment, and Xiangyang City now seems not as easy to deal with as Fancheng.

The most important thing is that Li Dian has a way to deal with the siege equipment of the Jingzhou army, although that method only delays the progress of the siege, as long as the time is enough, it is not a problem to break through Xiangyang, but it is indeed the most fatal for Xiangyang to be difficult to break for a while.

Cao Jun's support was ready to arrive at any time, and there was not much time left for Guan Yu.

"Zhongye, you have lived in Xiangyang for a long time, do you have a good way to break the city?" Seeing that everyone was silent, Guan Yu frowned and asked.

"Xiangyang City is a strong city, and when Jingsheng Gong was alive, it was strengthened several times, and it was difficult to conquer it in a hurry." Wen Ping shook his head and said: "But now that Fancheng is down, the Han River is in the hands of our army, and the water army can block the Cao army's reinforcements along the Han River, so as to buy time for the prince to break the city." ”

There are so many routines to attack the city, and there are not many clever strategies, since there is no hurry, it can only be consumed with troops.

There are not many defenders in Xiangyang City, and the siege weapons on Guan Yu's side still have some effect, at least they can bring the casualties of both sides closer.

And the role of Fancheng was also reflected at this time.

Xiangyang is surrounded by the Han River, the Cao army wants to support Xiangyang, can only pass through Fancheng, Zhonglu and other places, all have to pass through the Han River, Fancheng is undoubtedly the easiest, now Fancheng is lost, Wen Ping and then lead the water army to cut off the Han River, Cao army no matter how many soldiers and horses, it is difficult to break through the Wen Ping army to support Xiangyang.

Guan Yu nodded when he heard this, the biggest problem now is to worry about Cao Cao's reinforcements, this problem is solved, and it is only a matter of time before Xiangyang is attacked.

"Prince." After Ma Liang pondered for a while, he arched his hand to Guan Yu and said: "In Nanyang, there are many righteous people to the Han Dynasty, and now that the Cao army is conquering Hanzhong, Nanyang is also empty, why not order someone to go to Nanyang to contact these righteous people to fight against Cao thieves?" If Cao Ren's grain road can be cut off, our army will be free in the near future. ”

It is a bit hangy to capture Nanyang, after all, it is just a group of rabble, but it is still okay to cause some trouble for Cao Jun.

"What Ji Chang said, won my heart, so I followed Ji Chang's words." Guan Yu obviously agreed with Ma Liang's strategy, and immediately made a decision.

After making a plan, Guan Yu ordered everyone to follow the plan, and Wen Ping led the navy to cruise the Han River, deterring Xiangyang and blocking the reinforcements that Cao Jun might arrive at any time.

Ma Liang is responsible for contacting the righteous people in Nanyang to make a rebellion and buy time for Guan Yu, Guan Yu brought Zhou Cang and Liao Hua to attack Xiangyang, attacking for a month, and Li Dian defended the city in a good way, but after all, it was not as strong as Guan Yu's troops, and in January, Xiangyang City was in danger.

At the same time, the news of the destruction of Fancheng also spread completely in this month.

For a time, the world was in an uproar, and there was no need for Ma Liang to contact him, and the land of Nanyang was between the ten months, and a large number of gentry responded to Guan Yu one after another.

The land of Nanyang is a sad place for Cao Cao, where the general Dian Wei, his beloved son Cao Ang, and Cao Anmin, the hero of the Cao family, all died.

Although Cao Cao accepted Zhang Xiu's surrender and did not pursue the matter, the Cao clan was obviously not friendly here.

Coupled with the defeat of Chibi, Cao's army urgently needs to consolidate the defense line in Xiangfan, and the exploitation of Nanyang is extremely serious, and the bandits in Nanyang have been quite serious, and now Guan Yu has conquered Fancheng, and the news of the siege of Xiangyang came, which suddenly made these people excited.

Cao Cao immediately ordered Cao Ren to withdraw his troops back to Xiangyang after receiving the news that Fancheng had been broken and Yu Ban had surrendered, and Cao Cao also began to withdraw his army to Guanzhong.

It's just that it's easy to come, but he wants to leave at this time, but Zhang Fei is unwilling, so he stubbornly entangles Xiahoudun's main force, and at the same time orders Guan Ping to gather Shangyong and Fangling soldiers and horses to drag Cao Ren.

As the news of Guan Yu's capture of Fancheng spread, the originally unpopular battlefield immediately exploded like a drop of water dripping into a hot oil pot, and even Liu Bei personally led his troops to Hanzhong to support Zhang Fei.

……

Jingzhou, Jiangling

"Fujun, General Fu is out asking to see you." Mi Fang's guards walked in and bowed to Mi Fang.

There is a batch of grain and grass ready to be transported to the front line, Mi Fang frowned a little at Fu Shiren's arrival at this time, as a public security guard, Fu Shiren is not good at guarding the public security at this time, but what does it mean to always run to himself?

And he always felt that Fu Shiren's words had gone too far recently.

Mi Fang is not a fool, although he also resented Guan Yu before, but Guan Yu's attitude towards him has changed recently, as Liu Bei's brother-in-law, he can't pull Guan Yu's back legs at this time because of a little anger before, right?

"Let's just say that I'm busy with official business and don't have time to see him." Mi Fang had vaguely guessed what Fu Shiren meant, and was already a little repulsed at this time.

"Slow!" A young voice suddenly sounded outside the door, followed by the door being pushed open, and a young man stepped in, smiling at Mi Fang and said, "Fu Jun, I thought that this person still needs to be seen!" ”

"Deng Ai?" Mi Fang's eyes widened in surprise when she saw the young man's appearance......
