Previous Chapter

Yuan Xi came to Sun Shangxiang's room, really packed up his things, and planned to go back to Jiangdong, even if Yuan Xi came, he didn't stop what he was doing, and Yuan Xi didn't persuade him anymore, and just sat aside to watch her clean up. Sun Shangxiang thought that Yuan Xi would come to persuade him, but he didn't expect to be watching the play on the sidelines, so he was suddenly angry and said angrily: "I'm ready to go back to Jiangdong, the king neither comforts nor helps, is it possible to come to see me laugh?" ”

"This king just came to see if you have grown in the past eight years, and you are still so impulsive, and I don't want to think about it, Sun Quan tore his face so directly, the three of you are hostages in my hands, and it is clear that you are borrowing my hand to get rid of his henchmen." Yuan Xi calmly explained to Sun Shangxiang, "Even if I let you go back to Jiangdong, your second brother Sun Quan won't give you a good face, think about it yourself, do you want to go back?" ”

Sun Shangxiang is not stupid, he is even quite smart, he understood as soon as he said it, threw his luggage aside, and was silent. Yuan Xi stepped forward, wiped away her tears, and coaxed: "You can rest assured to stay in Hebei, anyway, after letting you eat and drink for eight years, my Yuan family is not short of money, it's really not good, I will sell you for some money in the future, with your appearance, I should be able to return to my capital without loss." ”

Yuan Xi's words made Sun Shangxiang cry and laugh, he didn't look like King Wei at all, half of the world was Yuan Xi's, and he was so greedy for money, but it didn't hinder his image in his heart, he hugged Yuan Xi and said coquettishly: "Brother Wei is the best for me, Xiangxiang still stays in King Wei's mansion and serves Brother Wei Wang." ”

Compared with eight years ago, Sun Shangxiang is more mature, bumpy and convex, nearly one meter seven tall, which is already very tall among women, only half a head shorter than Yuan Xi, sticking to Yuan Xi's body, and his plump chest was seen by Yuan Xi at a glance, which also made Yuan Xi's heart hot, and he couldn't help hugging Sun Shangxiang.

Although Yuan Xi is still so young, he is also in his thirties and full of experience, Sun Shangxiang was quickly subdued by Yuan Xi, and obediently let Yuan Xi fiddle, Sun Shangxiang's plump figure and full of energy made Yuan Xi want to stop, I don't know how long the intimacy lasts, and the two of them slowly gave up.

A few days later, Pang De and Pang Tong led an army of 50,000 to Xinye to fight against Liu Bei. Zhao Yun, Yuan Rui, and Sun Shao also led an army of 50,000 to Shouchun to fight against Jiangdong. Yuan Shang and Ma Chao also led an army of 50,000 and stationed in Luoyang to fight against Cao Cao. I don't know whether Yuan Xi, the king of Wei, took the opportunity to unify the world, or Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan took the opportunity to rise, all of which are major events in the world that everyone is concerned about, however, Yuan Xi, the overlord of the world, does not seem to be worried about the situation in the Central Plains.

Sun Quan personally led an army of 100,000 and dozens of generals to send troops from Hefei to Shouchun. After Yuan Xi refused Sun Quan to claim the king, he ordered Zhang Yan and Gan Ning to take precautions, now the reinforcements have not arrived, Shouchun is only 30,000 horses, Gan Ning said to Zhang Yan: "Jiangdong is strong in the water army, fighting in the plains, it is self-defeating, although there are 100,000 troops, it is better to take advantage of its arrival, it is better to lead the army to sneak attack, and first frustrate its spirit." ”

Zhang Yan agreed with Gan Ning's suggestion, and the two drew lots, but Gan Ning was selected, and Gan Ning selected a hundred elite cavalry, armed with long knives, and took advantage of the darkness to secretly approach the Jiangdong camp and launch a sneak attack. That night, Sun Quan was discussing with the generals how to capture Shouchun.

Sun Quan asked everyone: "According to the report of the spies, Shouchun has 30,000 troops, and our army is 100,000, how can we take Shouchun before the Yuan army from Hebei comes?" ”

Lu Xun said confidently: "Wu Hou rest assured, Yuan Tan attacked Shouchun back then, and later encountered the plague, and Shouchun's defense was not as good as before. Our army is several times larger than Yuan's army, and it won't take long to take Shouchun, and the only thing to guard against is that Zhang Yan robbed the camp at night. ”

As soon as Lu Xun's words fell, there was a noise outside, and Sun Quan's personal soldiers came to report that the enemy had robbed the camp. Sure enough, as Lu Xun expected, it just came too quickly, Sun Quan was not prepared, and Gan Ning's cavalry quickly killed Sun Quan's Chinese army camp.

Sun Quan did not know the situation of the enemy army, and under the protection of Zhou Tai, he quickly retreated, gathered a large army, and fought against Yuan's army. However, after Sun Quan's army was assembled, he did not see Shouchun Yuan's army attacking, so he ordered his own soldiers to check the situation, saying that Shouchun general Gan Ning led more than 100 cavalry to raid our army and disrupt our army, and left safely, leaving no corpse. Sun Quan was shocked, a hundred cavalry can come and go freely in my Jiangdong 100,000 army, it seems that he underestimated the Shouchun defenders, so he ordered the whole army to be on guard, and wait for dawn to attack the city.

After Gan Ning and the cavalry came back, Zhang Yan counted the number of people, it was still a hundred, intact, laughed and praised Gan Ning: "The courage of Xingba, not inferior to Yafu, Sun Quan must have been frightened, right?" Gan Ning excitedly said that Sun Quan was embarrassed, but he was not careless, he just raised the momentum of the three armies, and took turns guarding Shouchun with Zhang Yan, waiting for reinforcements.

On the other hand, Liu Bei led an army of 100,000, with Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng as military advisors and Guan Yu as the vanguard, to attack Xinye. Xinye Shou General Ma Dai is a little-known young general, so naturally Guan Yu, who is not arrogant, will take Xinye in his eyes, and vowed to take Xinye within three days.

When Ma Dai heard that the Jingzhou army was coming, he was a little panicked and summoned Deng Ai to discuss. Deng Ai heard that Liu Bei's vanguard was Guan Yu, and said to Ma Dai: "General, although Liu Bei has an army of 100,000, I believe that the reinforcements of King Wei are about to arrive, and we need to block Liu Bei's vanguard army now." ”

Guan Yu led 50,000 vanguard troops to the mouth of the Han River and chose to cross the river on a flat place. Guan Ping reminded Guan Yu: "Father, although Xinye is a small city, there are also twenty or thirty thousand horses, crossing the river with such fanfare, the Xinye defenders have defense, and it will be difficult to capture Xinye within three days." ”

Guan Yu stroked his half-white long beard and educated Guan Ping: "The courage of his father is famous all over the world, and Ma Dai is an unknown person, so fanfare, just to surrender without a fight." Guan Ping admired his father a lot, so he naturally didn't feel that there was anything wrong, so he didn't ask anymore, in order not to embarrass Guan Yu, Guan Ping led the troops to bravely open the way in front and marched towards Xinye with great fanfare.

Sure enough, as Deng Ai expected, Guan Yu was arrogant and arrogant, and he didn't take Ma Dai in his eyes at all, showing off his might, thinking that he could scare Ma Dai into abandoning the city and fleeing. Deng Ai went the opposite way and suggested that Ma Dai lead a large army and ambush the Jingzhou army halfway.

The plan was very simple, but it was very useful, Ma Dai and Deng Ai fought left and right, the Jingzhou army was in chaos, Guan Ping couldn't resist it, so he could only retreat to Guan Yu for his guilt. Guan Yu saw that Guan Ping was defeated at the hands of Ma Dai, and suddenly felt embarrassed, and personally led the army to deal with Ma Dai.

However, with the lessons of the past, Guan Yu was also a lot more cautious, and slowly advanced towards Xinye. Ma Dai and Deng Ai saw that Guan Yu was careful and had no chance to take advantage of it, so they returned to Xinye. Guan Yu's army attacked Xinye for several days, but Ma Dai and Deng Ai were short of troops and could only retreat to Fancheng. At this time, the reinforcements led by Pang De and Pang Tong also rushed to Fancheng, and Pang De saw Guan Yu outside the city smug and very unhappy, so he personally came to fight Guan Yu.

Pang De's courage is no less than Guan Yu, and the two have fought for more than 100 rounds, regardless of victory or defeat. Guan Yu saw that he couldn't defeat Pang De, so he decided to use his famous stunt to drag the knife, deliberately pretending to be invincible, and preparing to retreat. Pang De is full of experience, and he has been fighting with the world's peerless generals for a long time, so he naturally knows that Guan Yu will never be weaker than himself, and there must be tricks. However, Pang De was extremely adaptable, and he did not chase after him, but shot an arrow at Guan Yu, hitting Guan Yu's arm.

Guan Yu endured the pain and scolded Pang De and said: "I didn't expect Yuan Xi's subordinates to hurt people with secret arrows, and I Guan Yu wrote down this account." ”

Pang De laughed and said: "Guan Yu, you still have to be shameless, you want to murder me by cheating, I just remind you that if you change someone else, you will not be an arrow in the arm." "Guan Yu's arrogant person, even in the face of Lu Bu, has never been injured, he didn't expect to be defeated in the hands of Pang De, he couldn't think about it for a while, he was angry and bloody, and he got off the horse, and Guan Ping stepped forward to rescue Guan Yu.

Sun Quan and Liu Bei did not get any favors, Cao Cao was lucky, because Yizhou was remote, and when Sun Quan and Liu Bei attacked the Central Plains, they led their troops to Chang'an and gathered everyone to discuss the capture of the Central Plains. Cao Cao said to everyone: "Now there are three roads in front of us, Luoyang, Wancheng, and Xuchang, which place do you think is the most suitable to capture?" ”

Cao Pi has grown a lot in recent years, and naturally has a lot of ideas, and suggested to Cao Cao: "Father, the child thinks that Wancheng has Gao Shun and Xuchang has Zhang Liao, even if it is captured, once Yuan Xi leads the army to come, there is no danger to defend, it will only be in vain, it is better to capture Luoyang, Luoyang has a large population, the people are rich, you can improve the strength of our army, and there is a tiger pass to guard, easy to defend and difficult to attack." ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed and praised: "Zihuan has not seen him for many days, so he is impressed by his father, so according to your words, he will raise troops to attack Luoyang." Cao Cao, with Xu Huang as the vanguard and Cheng Yu as the military division, raised 150,000 troops to attack Luoyang. At this time, Yuan Shang's army had arrived in Luoyang, and when he saw Cao Cao leading the army to attack, he was not afraid, and led the army with Ma Chao, Zhang Xiu, and Zhao to meet Cao Cao.
