482. Soochow sent troops

Sure enough, after receiving a distress letter sent by Guo Jiayi in the name of Cao Cao, Sun Quan only hesitated for a moment before firmly ordering the troops! The army came out of Yangzhou and went straight to Pengcheng in Runan!

Sun Quan's idea was very simple: he wanted to completely open the road passage with Cao Cao and block the road of the Qi army's westward advance. At this moment, the general Wen Ping was ordered to guard Runan City! Knowing that Eastern Wu was attacking on a large scale, Wen Ping did not dare to fight with it, and sent people to Changyi City for help while guarding the city.

After Liu Bei learned that Eastern Wu was marching into the army, he immediately urgently transferred Tai Shici and Zhang Fei back to join him in the expedition to Eastern Wu! Here, Wei Yan, Zhang He, Ju Yi and others were left to Han Fei!

Han Fei attracted a large number of Cao troops in the Dongjun City, and originally wanted Zhang He to lead the army to raid Hanoi! Now it seems that this plan has to be canceled. It was really the right time for Eastern Wu to send troops this time, if the Qi army successfully took Hanoi, then the Cao army would really be surrounded by the Qi army on all sides.

Seeing that his plan was sabotaged again, Han Fei really had no choice but to sigh. Guo Jia also realized that Hanoi was short of troops at this time, so he suggested that Cao Cao let the third prince go to Hanoi to recruit troops for training, while defending Lü Bu in the north, and always keeping an eye on the movements of the Qi army.

Cao Cao had a headache and was sometimes good and sometimes bad, so he had no choice but to throw all these things to Guo Jia and let him watch the arrangement! Just when this side was in full swing, far west in Chang'an, the battle began.

It turned out that Guan Yu had gone through a period of integration and put Yizhou's side in order. Then he discussed with Fa Zheng and Xu Shuyi and decided to send troops to attack Chang'an! Chang'an is guarded by Cao Ren at the moment, with the strategist Sima Yi and the general Xiahoudun under his command, in addition to 40,000 troops here!

Chang'an City is the barrier of the northwest, and Cao Ren has been operating here for many years! Especially after the Hanzhong miss, Cao Ren ordered the city wall of Chang'an to be raised by another meter, and now this strong city is standing, and the center of Yongzhou is really difficult to shake!

But with Guan Yu's arrogance, in his eyes, there was no city that could stop the army under his command. Chang'an City is no exception, but he still has to take Shangyong before attacking Chang'an. Shangyong Land is adjacent to Jingzhou, but it is suddenly barren and mostly mountainous, so Cao Cao does not attach much importance to this place, but if he stays here, it can just threaten the rear of the Qi army.

Guan Yu sent troops with a total of 50,000 horses this time, of which he divided 10,000 troops and handed them over to Zhao Yun, and ordered him to go and take down Shangyong. I thought this was an extremely easy thing, but I didn't want Zhao Yun to attack Shangyong at the same time, but he was attacked by the Eastern Wu army behind his back.

It turned out that after Zhou Yu was seized of military power by Sun Quan, he spent half a year at home. Then Sun Quan ordered him to come to the affairs of the governor of Jingzhou. After Sun Quan sent troops to Runan, he sent a letter to Zhou Yu asking him to be ready to send troops from the west to attack Runan City together.

But just when Zhou Yu was about to send troops, Guan Yu's army attacked! Zhou Yu relied on his keen observation to find that Shangyong had become a treasure that could threaten the Qi army. So he sent a letter to Sun Quan and discussed with Cao Hong in Xiangyang City to attack Shangyong's Qi army by means of a surprise attack.

Cao Hong knew that Cao Cao was fighting with the Qi army, so he happily agreed to Zhou Yu's request. So Zhou Yu led the troops to Zhao Yun's back smoothly, and Zhao Yun's men and horses suffered heavy losses under the sudden attack! Of the 10,000 horses that were beaten, more than 4,000 remained! In desperation, Zhao Yun retreated and asked Guan Yu for help.

Guan Yu had already led the army to the vicinity of Chang'an City at this time, and after receiving Zhao Yun's letter, Guan Yu suddenly felt bad. This Soochow actually sent troops! Then what they will face next is likely to be the Wei-Wu coalition army.

Thinking of this, Guan Yu sent Guan Ping to lead 10,000 horses to support Zhao Yun, and he himself was not in a hurry to attack Chang'an, and stationed in the Meridian Valley, which was a hundred miles away from Chang'an, and waited for the news of the Battle of Shangyong! If Shangyong successfully takes it, then he will continue to attack Chang'an as originally planned, if he fails to take Shangyong, then Guan Yu can only collect his troops and go back first.

The battle of Shangyong became the key, and Zhao Yun immediately began to launch a fierce attack on Shangyong after waiting for Guan Ping's reinforcements. Zhou Yu is strong at this time! With his subordinates, he was stunned to withstand Zhao Yun's many onslaughts! Just when the battle was lively here, Runan City finally ushered in an army of 100,000 led by Sun Quan.

This time, Sun Quan also came out of the nest, not only with an army of 100,000 but also with the military advisor Pang Tong, and the generals Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Lu Meng and others. After calling the battle to no avail, with Sun Quan's order, the Eastern Wu army began to attack the city!

Wen Ping desperately defended the city, and did not remember the casualties and used his lives to go up, so under the onslaught of the Eastern Wu army, he kept the city of Runan until Liu Bei personally led the army to arrive.

With the arrival of Liu Bei's army, the situation in Runan City immediately became complicated. But these don't seem to have anything to do with Zhang Fei, at this moment he only has the veteran Huang Zhong in his eyes!

As Zhang Fei called the veteran Huang Zhong to greet him. The two know each other quite well, and they don't greet each other when they meet, and they fight together. Zhang Fei's eight-zhang snake spear hung with a cold style, and the spear did not leave Huang Zhong's vital point. Huang Zhong brandished a big knife and defused Zhang Fei's move with one move, and after fighting for a long time, the two were still evenly matched!
