Although Guan Yu is arrogant, he is not stupid, and with Xu Shu on the side, Zhou Yu's plan to sneak attack was stillborn before it began.

The sneak attack turned into a tough battle, so this one was very difficult. In the end, after throwing down more than 8,000 corpses, the whole army retreated, which also heralded the end of the third battle with the victory of the Qi army.

After the war, Zhou Yu quickly reported the situation here to Sun Quan. After Sun Quan received the battle report, he couldn't help but have a headache. At this time, Zhang Zhao happened to be on the side, so he took the opportunity to speak: "Lord, that Guan Yu is Liu Bei's brother-in-law, but he is not Liu Bei's relative after all, and now he is inevitably suspicious of Liu Bei when he is leading troops outside." If the relationship between the two can be provoked, and then Liu Bei takes the initiative to transfer Guan Yu away, then there will be no one in Shu to stop the army of the lord! ”

"Oh, what Zibu said is very good! Let's talk about what other strategies are there together. Sun Quan's eyes lit up when he heard Zhang Zhao's words, and he immediately asked him to continue. Zhang Zhao was also not polite and continued: "The lord has a son under his knee who is now an adult, I heard that Guan Yu has a daughter who has also reached the age of marriage, so it is better for the lord to send someone to ask for marriage." If he can really marry that Guan Yu, Liu Bei can't help but be suspicious of him. ”

"Good strategy! But I don't know who can be a messenger? Sun Quan heard this and asked.

Zhang Zhao thought for a while and said, "Let Zijing go!" He is an honest man, and he wants to come and think that since Guan Yu will not make an excuse to refuse to see him. Sun Quan felt that it was feasible, so he immediately ordered to summon Lu Su and ordered him to be his envoy to Ba County to meet Guan Yu and ask for marriage.

Guan Yu didn't know that Sun Quan was calculating himself, and he was worried about Zhao Yun's letter. "Yuan Zhi, what do you think of Zilong's letter?"

"Second general, this is a must-defend, then Guo Jia died, Cao Jun is really likely to break the jar and fall, so he simply attacked the city directly. As the saying goes, the mourning soldiers will win, and Cao Ren must have also fought this idea. After Xu Shu finished speaking, he looked at Guan Yu, only to see Guan Yu nodding and then frowning: "But now let me go where to send troops to him." There are very few defenders in various places, and if they are withdrawn, I am afraid that there will be problems. ”

"Hahaha, the second general doesn't have to worry! Don't forget that we've got a lot of amazing soldiers! After Xu Shu finished speaking, Guan Yu immediately reacted, and he nodded at Xu Shu and said, "Thanks to Yuan Zhi for reminding me, otherwise I would have really forgotten about them." Well, now that this is an extraordinary time, I will send them to Hanzhong. ”

"The second general is slow, you can send it over, but you can't send it all, leave one-third of the people, and arrange it in Ba County, I'm afraid that Zhou Yu will not give up, I can't say that they will send troops into the mountains, bypassing Ba County and directly attacking Chengdu City. So I suggested leaving one-third of the people behind and going to the mountains to set up an ambush, so that they would not be afraid of the sneak attack of Soochow.

Guan Yu nodded yes when he heard this, so he ordered to send 10,000 Wudang Flying Army to Hanzhong to help. The five thousand men and horses left behind were all arranged by Guan Yu into the mountains. The arrangements were made here, and there was a fight on the Hanzhong side.

Cao Ren is really crazy, and the Cao Jun under his command is also crazy. On the first day of the siege, both sides sent large troops, and if it weren't for Zhao Yun's timely response, this Hanzhong City would have almost changed hands. But even so, the number of soldiers in the city was too large, and it wouldn't be long before there would be no one in the city. "I don't know if reinforcements have been dispatched, this side won't be able to hold out for a few days." Zhao Yun watched Cao Jun retreat like a tide, and he also felt powerless. Cao's army attacked too fiercely, it was completely a desperate posture, Hanzhong City was afraid that it would really be impossible to hold it this time, and now I can only hope that the reinforcements will come soon.

At the time of the death battle on the Hanzhong side, Lu Su, who was ordered to send an envoy to Ba County, had already come to the outside of Ba County by boat. Guan Yu heard that Sun Quan had sent an envoy to come, so he called Xu Shu to accompany him to meet this person. As a result, the messenger came with a name, and it was Lu Su. Guan Yu had also heard the name of this person and knew that he was an important adviser under Sun Quan, so he became more and more interested in Sun Quan's purpose this time.

Lu Su came in and saluted Guan Yu, and Guan Yu ordered someone to watch the tea on the seat. After Lu Su sat down, he was not in a hurry to speak, but looked at the people around Guan Yu, and then he said to Xu Shu: "Presumably this is Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi, right?" Sure enough, he is a resourceful man, no wonder Gong Jin didn't bargain in the hands of Your Excellency. ”

"Lord Lu is serious, but the governor of Zhou is very impressed!" Xu Shu replied with a smile. Lu Su also smiled slightly, and then turned his gaze to Guan Yu and said, "General Guan, there is a happy event to congratulate the general on this time." ”

"Oh? You and I are at war, but I don't know where this joy comes from? Guan Yu asked lightly.

Lu Su smiled slightly after hearing this: "When Qi and Wu go to war, you and I will naturally fight for each other, but there is a way to change everything." Now Marquis Wu admires General Guan's personality very much, so he sent me to ask General Guan for marriage. If you want to marry the daughter of General Guan Yinping with the eldest son under your command, I hope General Guan will agree! Guan Yu didn't listen to it, and when he heard that Lu Su was here to ask for a kiss, Danfeng's eyes suddenly widened, and he reprimanded angrily: "My tiger girl can marry a dog, this matter should not be mentioned again, if Mr. Lu has nothing else, a certain family will not be here if he is busy with military affairs." ”

Lu Su didn't expect Guan Yu to refuse so simply, he looked at Guan Yu and then at Xu Shu, and then sighed and said, "Since General Guan has no intention, then I will leave first!" After Lu Su finished speaking, he got up and said goodbye and left.

After seeing him leave, Xu Shu was a little worried: "General Guan rejected Sun Quan so simply, I'm afraid that he will be annoyed and embarrassed and increase the pace of attack!" ”

"Afraid of what? The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and a certain family will not believe it, see what ability he has in Dongwu to take Ba County! Guan Yu snorted coldly and said.
