++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

On the second day of the third month of the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Yu Ban captured Yangjiling.

The last pass in the north of Xiling was broken, and from then on, Cao's army could drive straight in, and in one day, the troops came to Xiling County. Liu Hu, the defender of Yangjiling, was killed in battle, and all 20,000 soldiers were annihilated. The loss of Yangguling also means that the battle of Jiangxia has come to an end, and Liu Qi is no longer powerless to resist.

At the same time, Anlu is in constant danger.

In the face of Cao Jun's crazy attack, Guan Yu's father and son resisted desperately.

However, the troops in his hands are insufficient, although Liu Qi entrusted all the 30,000 troops to Guan Yu, but compared to Cao's army, it is still far from enough.

Cao Cao personally supervised the battle, with Guo Jiaxunyou as his military advisor, and even made tricks.

After holding out for eight days, the Anlu defenders were exhausted. The loss of Yangguling not only opened the northern gateway of Xiling County, but also made the heart of the Anjun army float. Once Cao's army captured Xiling, Anlu was bound to become an isolated city on the Jianghan Plain. When the time comes, Cao's army will be surrounded on all sides, and Anlu will be broken...... Guan Yu did not dare to continue to hold on, and led his troops to break through on the fifth day of the first month of March, abandoned Anlu, and fled to Xiling County. Cao's army immediately occupied Anlu, and the western gate of Xiling County was opened, and it was no longer possible to stop Cao's army from advancing.

However, at this moment, there was a disagreement between Liu Qi and Guan Yu.

Xiling can't be defended!

This has become a fact.

With the loss of Anlu, Xiling County will be broken sooner or later. As a result, the counties and towns in Liu Qi's hands will only be left with five cities: Chenxian, Shaxian, Exian, Xiapheasant, and Xiajun. According to Guan Yu's intentions, he should retreat into Changsha County as soon as possible and deal with Cao Cao.

But Liu Qi doesn't think so!

He was reluctant to give up Jiangxia, and even said that he could annex Jiangdong.

Then, with the assistance of Jiangdong, he stubbornly guarded Xia Pheasant and Shaxian Exian County to block Cao Cao's footsteps.

In this way, Jiangdong can be drawn into this war, and at the same time, it can also get strong support with its back to Changsha. Sun Quan's ambition for Jiangxia has a long history. Since Sun Jian, Jiangdong has been constantly attacking Jiangxia, and the one who did it is a springboard for the land of Jingchu.

Now, Sun Quan hesitated and couldn't make up his mind.

simply used Jiangxia as bait to attract Sun Quan to join the war...... With Liu Qi's understanding of Sun Quan, it is very likely that he will not be able to resist this temptation.

Only by pulling Sun Quan in can he temporarily stabilize his footing.

However, this will take time, so it is necessary to first hold the front line of Shaxian and E County, and then discuss with Sun Quan...... If Jiangxia is completely lost, it means that he Liu Qi will no longer have any capital. Therefore, the four counties of Exian, Shaxian, Xiapheasant and Xiajun can't give up anything, and they must stick to it.

On the contrary, Guan Yu is an extremely arrogant person.

How could he tolerate Liu Qi and surrender to Sun Quan?

Preserving strength is what needs to be done at present, as for Liu Qi's future, how can Guan Yu care? As a result, there was a fierce quarrel between the two sides, which can even be described as a conflict. Liu Qi insisted that Sun Quan should be surrendered; Guan Yu insisted that he should lead his troops to withdraw to Changsha. The two sides had a dispute for a while, so they had to send someone to Changsha to ask Liu Bei to make a decision, and then make a decision.

But this time and again......

The news of the fall of Xia Jun is not yet known to Guan Yu and others.

So they didn't know that the messenger they sent was killed in Xiajun, and the letter they sent to Liu Bei was seized by Cao Peng.

On the tenth day of the third month, Cao Cao, after occupying Anlu, suddenly launched an attack on Xiling County.

Guan Yu and Liu Qi responded to the battle in a hurry, and under the onslaught of Cao's army, they finally evacuated in embarrassment and fled south...... It stands to reason that Cao Cao, after occupying the county rule of Jiangxia, should have rested for a while, but continued to pursue. How did he know that Cao Cao won Xiling, but he didn't stop, and even ordered Yu Ban, Xu Chu, and Zhang Hebing to divide into three ways to pursue Liu Qi and Guan Yu.

"From now on, no military orders shall be given, and the troops and horses of the three routes shall not be afraid of battle, shall not stop pursuit, shall not abandon the attack, and shall not stop for any reason."

This order was issued, which also showed Cao Cao's determination.

He would never give Liu Qi and Guan Yu any respite. So, the soldiers and horses of the three roads were in hot pursuit, Guan Yu and Liu Qifang arrived at the river, and before they had time to catch their breath, Cao Jun chased after them from the rear. In a fierce battle in Jiangbei, Liu Qi and Guan Yu were defeated again. In the chaos of the army, the two lost contact and went their separate ways. Guan Yu desperately fought the bloody road, led the remnants of the defeated generals, and forcibly crossed the river to escape.

Who knows, as soon as I crossed the river, I got the news: Shaxian is lost!

Liao Hua led his troops to defend Shaxian for ten days, and finally could not resist the onslaught of Cao's army, and Shaxian City was broken.

Xu Huang led his troops to ascend first and occupy Shaxian; Cai Mao, the governor of the navy, led the navy eastward and approached Exian...... Liao Hua led his troops to flee to Exian County, where he joined Guan Yu, who had just crossed the river. Fortunately, the combined strength of the two sides still has more than 8,000 people, and Exian County is adjacent to the river and is in danger to defend. According to Guan Yu's meaning, he stayed in Exian County, inquired about Liu Qi's whereabouts, and then made a decision......

However, Liao Hua disagreed.

"Prince, no!"

When Guan Yu was serving Yuan Shao with Liu Bei, he was worshiped by Yuan Shao as the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion.

Although this title was not recognized by the imperial court, Guan Yu was quite in favor of it. Hearing Liao Hua's opposition, Guan Yu wrinkled his eyebrows, his face sank, his eyes narrowed, and he asked in a deep voice: "Why is Yuan Jian opposed?" ”

Yuan Jian is the table word of Liaohua.

He hurriedly said: "Junhou, now that Shaxian has been broken, Cao Cao's navy relies on the convenience of Jingzhou's navy, and no one can stop it on the river." If you stay in Exian County, I am afraid that it will be delayed...... Just imagine, Xu Gongming is Cao Cao's favorite general, and he is quite a soldier. In case he leads his troops to attack Xia Jun and cut off our retreat, then even if we meet the eldest prince at that time, I am afraid it will be difficult to return to Changsha. ”

"This ......"

When Guan Yu heard this, he immediately frowned.

What Liao Hua said is not unreasonable, if you stay here, I am afraid that the situation will become more dangerous.

"But the whereabouts of the eldest prince are unknown now......"

"Junhou, in the current situation, even if you find the eldest prince, what good will it do to the overall situation? Besides, the Cao army is fierce, and in the chaos of the army, the eldest prince is not in good health, how can he escape? In my opinion, now the eldest prince is either killed in battle, or I am afraid that he was captured by the Cao army. It's useless for us to wait like this, it's better to ...... If the prince is worried about the comfort of the eldest prince and wishes to stay in Exian, on the one hand, he can stop Cao's army and make the prince withdraw to Xiajun; Second, he can also contact the eldest prince to find out his life and death.

Don't hesitate to go on.

If you stay longer, there will be more danger, so it is better to rush to the next place as soon as possible.

Shaxian is lost, and the Jingzhou Navy can arrive in Exian County at any time to meet Cao's army to cross the river to fight, and then it will be difficult to evacuate. ”

What Liao Hua said was quite reasonable, which made Guan Yu nod again and again.

He hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: Since this is the case, then I will leave two thousand soldiers and horses with you, and I will go to Xiajun first. Yuan Jian also wants to fight to the death, if he can't do anything, he will immediately retreat to the next Jun. Three days, three days at most, you don't have to wait too long to avoid being encircled. ”

Guan Yu had planned to withdraw to Changsha, and he was not interested in sticking to Jiangxia.

After discussing with Liao Hua for a while, Guan Yu led his troops to leave Exian County and went straight to Xiajun......

At the same time, Liu Bei, who was going to send troops to meet Jiangxia, suddenly encountered a fierce attack by Cao's army. Xun Yu personally supervised the battle and ordered Pang De and Huang Zhong to join forces to attack Yiyang. At the same time, Xun Yu ordered Du Yi to lead the naval army to move in the direction of Luo County, forcing Tai Shi Ci to lead his troops back to Luo County to wait for the battle. Lingyang Wenpin, captured Zhushan Mountain, and approached Chong County. At the same time, Sha Teng, the old king of Wuxi Barbarian in Hutou Mountain, announced that he would join the imperial court and was willing to lead the Wuxi Barbarian army out of the mountain to settle. Jiang Wan immediately took over the matter and ordered people to build a city in the area of Hutou Mountain, so as to facilitate the Wuxi barbarians to go out of the mountain to live. In this way, Wei Yan was able to get out...... He led 8,000 soldiers and horses (including 3,000 people, who were offered by the old king of Wuxi, Sha Teng), and falsely claimed that 10,000 people would march to Yiyang. For a time, the wind in Yiyang City was loud, and the grass and trees were all soldiers.

This time, Cao Jun really wanted to attack Yiyang.

Liu Bei had no choice but to give an order to resist Cao's attack with all his might...... At the same time, he ordered people to go to Jiangxia and try to send troops and horses back to hold Changsha.

On March 13 of the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Cao Jun borrowed the help of Cai Mao's army to force the river crossing.

Xu Huang sent troops from Shaxian and approached the city of Exian County. Liao Hua only held on for one day, and then he was no longer able to hold on, and finally had to open the city and surrender.

Exian, lost!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Xiajun, Windy City Ridge.

Cao Peng climbed a high hill and raised his eyes to look into the distance.

But in the distance, the dust and smoke were billowing out, and it seemed that a large group of people were approaching Xiajun. He didn't show any panic, but turned around and ordered: "Pass my order, the three armies are hidden and must not be moved lightly." If you don't have to give orders, you can't attack without authorization, and you can't leak out of the line. ”

Kou was sealed on his horse and surrendered his hand.

Immediately, Cao Peng rode his horse and rushed down Gaogang, led his troops to sneak into the Windy City Ridge, and waited until the enemy arrived.

It has been half a month since the occupation of Xiajun. With the development of the Jiangxia war, the battle situation became clearer and clearer...... When Guan Yu led his troops to retreat across the river, Cao Peng knew that a vicious battle was inevitable. However, he was not too worried. With the strength of his hands, coupled with all the preparations before, it was enough for him to hold out in Xia Jun for ten days. After ten days of hard work, presumably Cao Jun can climb over even if he climbs, so what are you worried about?

At the same time, Guan Ping led the vanguard army to reach the foot of the Windy City Ridge.

Looking from a distance, I saw that the head of the city was silent, and there was no half of a figure in sight.

On one side, it fluttered on the head of the city, revealing a touch of slaughter. Guan Ping reined in his war horse and looked at it horizontally, and his face couldn't help but flash a touch of anger.

Immediately he rode his horse and came to the city of Xiajun.

"Is there anyone in the city?"

For a long time, a soldier came out with a weak probe, "Who is under the city?"

Uncle Huang has an order to close the city and not allow idle people to pass. ”

"Bastard thing!"

Guan Ping was furious and scolded sharply: "Open your dog's eyes wide and see who I am?" ”

"Who do I care about you...... Without the order of the county honor, we have no right to open the city. ”

"I am the second general, Guan Ping, the son of the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion, and immediately called Liao Zhong to come over and talk."

At the head of the city, the soldiers were obviously stunned, and immediately showed a look of horror, and apologized repeatedly: "The young prince is angry, I don't recognize it...... You wait, I'll go to Tongyu County. ”

With that, the soldier shrank his head and disappeared.

Guan Ping's originally restless mood was also relaxed.

He turned his horse and looked at the exhausted soldiers, and then said, "Give the order to go down, let everyone hold on, and they will soon enter the city, and then everyone can rest and have a full meal." When you get to Xiajun, there is no danger, so you don't have to be too nervous. ”

It was also this order that made the soldiers and horses, who were originally tired but still a little vigilant, immediately breathe a sigh of relief.

A long journey, not to mention the approaching pursuers. The soldiers were already overwhelmed and exhausted. It's just a breath of relief, so everyone can hold on. Now hearing Guan Ping say this, many people sit on the side of the road and are reluctant to get up again.

It's finally safe!

At the head of the city, Fa Zheng stood under the flag gate, quietly observing the state of Jiang Xia's soldiers.

When Guan Ping gave the order, a strange smile suddenly flashed on his face, and he turned around suddenly, and said in a deep voice: "Order, beat the drum!" ”

Liu Cong immediately nodded and raised his hand to wave.

In an instant, the silence of the city was full of drums...... Boom! A hundred cowhide drums were beaten at the same time, and two hundred shirtless men waved drumsticks and beat the war drums. The sound of the drum was like thunder, resounding through the heavens and the earth. And Guan Ping under the city was waiting for Liao *** to appear, but he didn't expect the city head to suddenly beat drums, and he couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly turned back to build a pergola, and raised his eyes to look at the city. But I saw that on the previously empty city gate, countless soldiers suddenly poured out. Flags stand in a forest, and swords, guns, swords, and halberds reflect the cold and cold of the forest under the reflection of the sun.

What's going on?

Guan Ping was stunned and was about to speak.

But I heard a cold voice from the city: "Release the arrows!" ”

In an instant, ten thousand arrows were fired.

Guan Ping was so frightened that he hurriedly waved his knife and knocked back.

He secretly screamed that it was not good, and was just about to order his men to fight. But when he heard a pro-soldier beside him, he suddenly shouted in a trembling voice: "Young Junhou, Cao Jun!" ”

Yes?

Where is it?

Guan Ping hurriedly looked back, but saw that from the side of the Wind City Ridge, a group of people suddenly appeared.

Rushing out of the bushes and woods, with a sword and shield on his back and a short bow in hand, he rushed down the hill with a whistling voice. The official road under Jun is built at the foot of the Windy City Ridge. Many of the soldiers had just relaxed and were sitting on the ground resting. The sudden appearance of the enemy army also caught the soldiers off guard.

Especially after this moment of rest, when the soldiers picked up their knives and guns again, they found that the knives and guns had become extremely heavy......

Cao Peng straddled the lion and tiger beast, holding the Fang Tian painting halberd, and took the lead and entered the enemy formation.

But seeing him dancing the animated halberd, the Fang Tian painting halberd was like a giant axe, and everywhere he went, he only killed Jiang Xia's soldiers with their heads and rats, and they had no intention of resisting at all. And behind him, Kou Feng and Wenwu followed closely behind. A thousand Cao troops, who had been recuperating for a long time, were like wolves and tigers, breaking into the chaotic army.

When it comes to troop strength, the two sides are actually about the same.

However, Cao Jun waited for work, while Jiang Xiabing was exhausted.

Defeated all the way from Xiling, he was pursued by Cao's army to the death, and there was almost no rest. Although after crossing the river, Yu County had a short rest and recuperation, but it was undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for the Jiang Xia soldiers, who were already exhausted. In particular, the retreat from Exian County and the rapid journey all the way to make it even worse, making the Jiangxia soldiers and horses reach the limit. Now, instead of alleviating the fatigue, I have become more tired. Many of them couldn't even pick up their weapons, so they were shot to the ground by the oncoming Cao army.

The distance between the two sides became closer and closer, and after three rounds of arrow rain attacks, Cao's army abandoned his bow and drew his sword, and then entered the battlefield.

Kou Feng was in the chaos of the battle and scattered with Cao Peng. But he didn't panic at all, but slapped his horse and danced his sword, rushing left and right, like no one's land.

"Kou Congzhi!"

Just as Kou *** was about to rise, he suddenly heard someone chanting his name.

In a hurry, he turned around and followed the sound, but saw Guan Ping holding a big knife from the crowd and rushing straight towards him......

Speaking of Kou Feng, Guan Ping couldn't help but grit his teeth.

When he sought to capture Xiangyang, if it wasn't for this Kou Feng suddenly surrendering to the enemy, why would he have lost? Guan Ping has always been hostile to traitors, not to mention that Kou Feng once worshiped Liu Bei as his father-in-law, speaking of which, at the beginning, the relationship between Guan Ping and Kou Feng was still very close. For everything that happened to Kou Feng at that time, Guan Ping also felt that it was unfair to Kou Feng...... But injustice is unfair, but it doesn't mean that Guan Ping can forgive Kou Feng for what he did.

When the so-called enemies meet, they are very red-eyed.

Guan Ping recognized Kou Feng in the chaos and was immediately furious.

He rushed forward with a knife and aimed at Kou Feng is sword. And Kou Feng hurriedly responded to the battle and raised his knife to greet him, but he was almost hit by Guan Ping.

In terms of martial arts, Kou Feng is not as good as Guan Ping.

After all, Guan Ping is Guan Yu's eldest son, although he was separated from his father when he was a child and did not get the true inheritance, but he worked extremely weekdays.

Guan Yu's skills, Guan Ping has also learned four or five percent, and he can be regarded as a first-class general.

"Kou Feng, once you betray the master's slave, you will not be killed."

Guan Ping scolded, which immediately made Kou Feng furious.

At the beginning of Xinye, what happened in Fancheng, don't you know Guan Pingguan Tanzhi? And now they have scolded me for betraying the Lord...... When did Liu Xuande treat me as his own person. That's right, in your eyes, I, Kou Feng, am a house slave! In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless.

Each has its own reason, and Kou Feng dances to meet each other.

The two horses circled, and after more than ten rounds of fighting, Kou Feng was a little unable to resist.

He made a false move, and the horse was about to be defeated. But how could Guan Ping let him go? Seeing Guan Ping shouting, he urged the horse to catch up with Kou Feng, and suddenly stood up on the horse, dragging his knife and chopping. Kou Feng was about to block, but he didn't want Guan Ping's knife momentum to change, and he moved forward...... It is this touch that distinguishes the winner from the loser. Kou Feng screamed, was split in half by Guan Ping's knife, and his body fell off the horse.

Although Guan Ping won, he didn't feel the slightest joy.

He was about to turn his horse's head when he heard the ringing of the horse's bell behind him. A long hiss like a dragon's roar echoed over the battlefield, and the lion and tiger beast roared angrily, making thousands of horses frightened. Although Guan Ping's mount is not bad, it is an ordinary war horse after all. Hearing the long roar of the lion and tiger beast, Xi Yuyu let out a long hiss, and suddenly flipped Guan Ping from his horse to the ground. Guan Ping was dizzy and dizzy, and his armor was crooked. The big knife in his hand didn't know where it flew...... He shook his head and struggled to get up from the ground. But before he could stand firm, he saw a majestic, tall horse already in front of him. The immediate general is Cao Peng...... Guan Ping was so frightened that he turned around and was about to flee.

Cao Peng lightly stretched his ape arm on the horse, and the halberd of the drawing rod poked out, and a green dragon probed the claw, slashing at Guan Ping......
