Cao Cao saw that Zhang Fei was really brave, so he commanded Cao Xiu and Zhang Xiu to rush out of the front to meet Zhang Fei, and the two quickly joined the battle, and now Cao Cao's six generals surrounded Zhang Fei in one place, Zhang Fei still struggled to kill without the slightest sign of retreat, this steel gun flew wildly, there were dozens of fights in a row, and the six generals could not defeat Zhang Fei, Cao Cao couldn't help but ooze a cold sweat when he saw it! I thought: Zhang Fei, this kid is crazy, and he is also dying, but he won't retreat! Huh! This is in jeopardy! Seeing Guan Yu's army coming from behind, Zhang Fei couldn't break through this pass, and Cao Cao was anxious like an ant on a hot pot! At this time, the strategist Xun You recommended: "Don't be stiff, Guan Yu will be dead when he arrives to attack us twice!" ”

"What do you want?" Cao Cao asked Xun Youdao.

Xun You continued: "This road is not passable, the lord might as well run south and turn to Wancheng instead!" ”

Xun You's Cao Cao's eyes lit up and he immediately ordered: "That's it!" Pass me on the order for the army to retreat to Wancheng! ”

As soon as this order came out of Cao Cao's army, he turned to the south and retreated, and the six generals no longer entangled Zhang Fei, and retreated one after another, Zhang Fei saw Cao Cao retreat and commanded his men and horses to cover up, and Guan Yu's army also immediately covered up, and the two armies attacked Cao Cao from two times, Cao Cao's army suffered heavy losses and had to withdraw in the direction of Wancheng, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei covered and killed more than 50 miles and put it back.

Cao Cao's army of more than 30,000 people rushed to the direction of Wancheng in embarrassment, and he ran to Wancheng, Cao Cao thought that he had arrived at the place of residence, and the sergeant called the city gate, but he heard a burst of laughter in the city, and suddenly saw a general flashed out, Cao Cao fixed his eyes and looked at some familiar and some faced, what a familiar stranger! The man saw Cao Cao's army and shouted, "Cao Cao, this city already belongs to our General Yuan, haha!" ”

Cao Cao then asked the people around him: "Who is this person?" ”

The general forbiddenly said: "This is Qiao Rui, the general under Yuan Shu!" ”

Cao Cao was shocked when he heard this, and suddenly understood and couldn't help but scold: "Yuan Shuxiao'er took advantage of the emptiness of my Wancheng to meet and raise troops together, he actually attacked my rear, he is really an unrighteous person who took advantage of the fire to rob!" ”

Cao Cao saw that Wancheng was attacked by Yuan Shu, so he turned to Nanyang. Preparing to hide in Nanyang for rest, Cao Cao's army at this time is really busy like a lost dog, anxious like a fish that has slipped through the net! The army was extremely embarrassed, Cao Cao and his army felt that Nanyang City was under the city, and when they arrived at Nanyang City, something surprised Cao Cao again. Cao Cao couldn't believe his eyes! But I saw Yuan Shu appear in Nanyang City with great energy, and his subordinates were lined up on both sides, and the big banner on it was a scroll! The big book is a big Yuan character, and then looking at Yuan Shu wearing a golden helmet and wearing a golden armor, colorful robes, standing majestically on Nanyang City, Cao Cao couldn't help but be furious when he saw it: "After Zhuzi'an dares to take me?" ”

"Cao Apu! Hum! I didn't expect it, the military rations you promised me last time couldn't be in place, and this time I will wipe out your city! What does Ruhuan have to say? Yuan Shu said proudly.

Cao Cao sneered: "It's really a villain." Yuan Highway don't get complacent too early, let's ride a donkey and watch the script - we'll see! ”

Yuan Shu smiled when he heard this: "Cao Agui, look at what you are like now, you can still speak wildly!" Deliver my orders to fire the arrows! After Yuan Shu finished speaking, he saw that the arrows on Nanyang City were shooting towards Cao Cao's army like locusts, and Cao Cao saw that it was not good to lead the remnants of the defeated army to Dongjun

However, it was said that Guan Yu won a big victory this time, defeated Cao Cao, recaptured Luoyang, and then surrounded the Tiger Prison Pass, and was not in a hurry to break the city, that is, to surround the Tiger Prison Pass, and surrounded but did not fight, so Cao Hong was trapped. Turning Tiger Prison Pass into a lonely city, Cao Hong saw that Guan Yu was powerful. Tiger Prison Pass is difficult to support alone and he is injured, there is no food and grass inside, there is no rescue outside, at this time the Tiger Prison Pass has become an empty city, and there is no way to defend it, this night Cao Hong led a group of people to steal the door and escape, Guan Yu's army did not make much effort to recover the Tiger Prison Pass. He and now Luoyang and Tiger Prison have been restored.

Guan Yu once again controlled the situation and turned the situation into safety, the situation in Luoyang was quickly controlled, Guan Yu inquired in detail about the whole process of the matter, when he learned that the main armed forces in the city colluded with Cao Cao, and actually took the city by force. Guan Yu couldn't help but be furious, and Guan Yu immediately ordered all the property of all the big landlords and rich people in Luoyang to be cleared and confiscated, and sentenced in accordance with the criminal law, and all the royal relatives and nobles who participated in the operation were deposed and expelled from Luoyang.

Guan Yu was really ruthless this time, of course, he also made up his mind, in fact, he had been enduring it before, although these elites also offended him, but focusing on the overall situation, Guan Yu didn't care about them, but this time Guan Yu couldn't bear it anymore, he was completely stimulated by the arrogance of the landlords, and he went crazy all of a sudden, and there was a ghost crying wolf howling in Luoyang City! The arrest of the arrest and the expulsion of the expulsion, after so many baptisms of blood and fire, Guan Yu gradually understood a truth: The so-called politics is either you die or I die! Relaxation towards the enemy means being harsh on oneself, and indulgence on the enemy means being harsh on oneself. This is a conclusion drawn from the blood and fire.

Guan Yu's actions this time can be described as not small, affecting the entire elite class in Luoyang, but these people are now at the end of their strong crossbows, and they are powerless to resist and dare not resist, Guan Yu will no longer tolerate them this time, not only will all their property be confiscated but they will also be imprisoned! Countless people were arrested for a while, because he regained the Tiger Prison Pass, Guan Yu was going to settle accounts with Zhang Fei, but in view of Zhang Fei's initiative to cut off Cao Cao's retreat this time, he made war achievements, and made up for his mistakes without being held responsible, Guan Yu forgave this sworn brother again.

The situation in Luoyang was quickly restored, this time to Cao Cao was hit hard, the biggest loss on Luoyang's side was to fold the Taiwei Zhu Jun, this person occupies a very important position in Guan Yu, Zhu Jun can be called a like-minded brother with himself, since he was strong Zhu Jun has given him great help, in the face of the great right and wrong Zhu Jun has also been fighting on his side, supporting him and supporting him, fighting side by side with him, this person can be called Guan Yu's best friend, for the sacrifice of this close friend, how can Guan Yu not feel distressed? This kind of pain hurts in my heart! Guan Yu decided to hold a state funeral for Zhu Jun, to create the best coffin for burial, the whole Luoyang City will hold a silent ceremony on the day of the burial, the whole army around Zhu Jun's coffin marched on the streets of Luoyang, Guan Yu personally rode a horse with a funeral ceremony in the front, and the generals were lined up on both sides. The sky was overwhelmingly white behind, and in addition to this, the drum horns also began to let out wails, and on this day, the whole of Luoyang bid farewell to this Guan Yu's comrade-in-arms

Guan Yu personally bid farewell to this old friend who followed him from birth to death, and began to think rationally and plan the next move, and Luoyang at this time gradually returned to its former calm. The previous battlefield was cleaned, Guan Yu still controlled the city, the Tiger Prison Pass, Bishui Pass were restored, the situation became stable, and the pace of reform continued to be carried out, but Zhu Jun's death made the reform less of a main force, for Guan Yu this has to be said to be a loss, Guan Yu decided to hand over Zhu Jun's burden to Liu Bei after research, because the city defense repair work is a pragmatic reform must be promoted. There must be a special person to lead in order to move forward smoothly.

Cao Cao's attack on Luoyang ended in failure again, this is the second attack on Luoyang failed, injured more than 70,000 soldiers and horses, the loss can be described as heavy, the war completely hurt the vitality, Cao Cao had to recuperate, Cao Cao not only failed to capture Luoyang, but was robbed by the second Yuan to occupy a lot of land. Yuan Shao occupied Qingzhou, and Yuan Shu captured Nanyang. It's really in response to that sentence: "Stealing chickens doesn't make rice!" Cao Cao failed to attack Luoyang for the second time, this failure was different from the previous one, Cao Cao was injured this time, and two pieces of land were taken away under his rule, Cao Cao was annoyed, and Cao Cao planned to take a long rest after returning to Xuchang. In order to fight again, at this time he did not even have the strength to regain the lost land, so he could only recuperate.

After Guan Yu rectified the affairs of Luoyang, especially after confiscating the money of the Luoyang landlord Haoqiang, according to Guan Yu's instructions, Ma Teng, Wen Ping, Yang Xiu and others formed a group to enforce the confiscation and clear the big households in Luoyang. This time Guan Yu let go of the cruel words, all of them were enforced, no matter what background you have, all of them will be cleared, that is to say, this time Ma Teng and others let go of their hands and feet, and paid off the big households in Luoyang one by one, and took out the guilt, this settlement is amazing, these big families went bankrupt all of a sudden, and some of the big families are also anxious to confront Ma Teng and others, but how can they fight it?

Ma Teng's levy with 10,000 elite soldiers, if blocked, immediately strangled, merciless, merciless, so when encountered, Ma Teng immediately ordered the army to be strangled, the landlord's armed forces were all killed, such a tough measure, the landlords and old wealth are really bitter! But Guan Yu made up his mind to advance this time, it is useless for anyone to intercede, Guan Yu does not give face at all, Emperor Xian also came forward this time, Guan Yu did not leave any mercy, Emperor Xian saw Guan Yu so helpless, now the court is mostly Guan Yu's people, there is no dissident in the army, no one can stop what Guan Yu wants to do, this is his character, Emperor Xian also understands a lot, and he has no choice but to let Guan Yu do it, but Liu Bei saw that this matter affected many royal relatives and nobles, and some of them couldn't bear to come out to intercede with Guan Yu, After all, Liu Bei is also a member of the royal family and nobles, how can he be indifferent in the face of such a bloody storm?

It is impossible for Liu Bei to retreat, because the royal family and nobles have already come forward to coordinate with him, and some people even pin all their hopes on Liu Bei, and the hopes placed on him even exceed that of Emperor Xian, Liu Bei shoulders this mission to find Guan Yu, in fact, Guan Yu has also pondered, Liu Bei will definitely come forward in this matter, this big brother is always so soft-hearted, so charitable, but this matter is not a matter of who is compassionate, this is a major issue of right and wrong related to a person's fate, if Guan Yu is soft this time, Then it is equivalent to indulging the enemy, and being soft on the enemy is undoubtedly sentencing himself, which is a matter of life and death, so even in the face of Liu Bei's intercession, Guan Yu mercilessly refused.

There is no room for negotiation, let alone accommodation, Liu Bei touched the nail this time, but Liu Bei was also excited this time, shouldering such a big mission, so many royal relatives and nobles behind him placed hope on him, Liu Bei is not only soft-hearted, but also very righteous in his bones, and has the virtue of a good life, this time he came out for the royal relatives, and he also closed out, but Guan Yu was also determined to eradicate this force this time, so in the face of Liu Bei's stubborn intercession, Guan Yu did not let go of this mouth at all, and the two of them were at a stalemate around this matter, Liu Bei is indomitable! However, Guan Yu's attitude this time was also extremely tough, no matter how Liu Bei made trouble. Guan Yu didn't agree with anything, Liu Bei saw Guan Yu so insistent, and knew that Guan Yu was iron-hearted this time, all along, what his second brother said and did never depend on the will of others, if it weren't for the identity of the eldest brother, he would have been scolded by Guan Yu for changing others

Liu Bei reluctantly came out of Guan Yu's mansion. Those royal princes and nobles are panicking, waiting for Liu Bei's reply? But they couldn't wait any longer, Liu Bei didn't succeed and didn't go to see them, and finally these people waited hard for the arrival of Ma Teng and his people, at this moment they were completely dumbfounded, according to Guan Yu's instructions to clear all these people, that is to say, confiscate property and drive out of Luoyang, and soon Ma Teng took action, at this time, the royal relatives and nobles are called every day should not be called the earth and the earth! That's why people are swordsmen, and I'm fish and meat!

Soon, the property of these royal relatives and nobles and large landlords in Luoyang was confiscated. Yang Xiu was busy making statistics, and all the gold, silver, treasures, antiques and jewelry had to be cared, and dozens of cars were loaded! All of them were collected and put into storage, and finally Yang Xiu led a group of people to make statistics, and there were 10 million taels of silver! That's 200,000 taels of gold! What is this concept? It is enough to feed an army of 200,000 for ten years, which is also all the wealth of Luoyang, and now it is concentrated, and it is worthy of being the imperial capital is really rich and rich. When Yang Xiu reported this result to Guan Yu, Guan Yu was really taken aback. Guan Yu couldn't believe this fact, Guan Yu decided to check the confiscated money in person, and when he arrived in front of the mountains of gold and silver treasures, Guan Yu was stunned by the scene in front of him: but he saw that the yellow was gold, the white was silver, and the pearls, agate, jewelry, rare treasures, antiques and famous paintings were piled up! It was the first time in Guan Yu's life to see such a big fortune and such a spectacular scene, even he couldn't suppress his excitement. Guan Yu kept sighing: This is what many people dream of!

has obtained such a huge wealth far more than the previous income, even if he inherits Dong Zhuo, collects Modern, and copies Zuo Feng together, there is not much to gain this time, which is unexpected by Guan Yu, and this is also a thing that makes Guan Yu really excited, this is really a nowhere to find it, it takes no effort to break through the iron hooves and find nowhere to find it! I didn't expect to use this opportunity to obtain the money I had been pursuing so easily. These sums of money are comparable to the estimated money of the entire reform, but it is obviously a little difficult to obtain so much money from the reform, because the matter of collecting money and grain from the princes is originally a retreat, and the results are definitely not as good as expected, so getting so much wealth really makes Guan Yu feel excited.

With money, you can do things, so much money can do big things, the reform itself is a matter of spending money, before Guan Yu with the help of the collection of taxes to get money to boost the reform, but in view of the limited money, Guan Yu's reform investment is very limited, dare not let go of his hands and feet, so the reform is also very slow, this is good to get so much money at once, you can increase investment in reform matters, Guan Yu remembered a sentence "A gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way, and uses it in a certain way", Money is easy to get and easy to spend, so Guan Yu decided to study this matter carefully.

After careful study, Guan Yu soon made a decision on this financial expenditure, and now he has a financial budget of 12 million, which can be called the most of the princes, Guan Yu decided to take out 2 million to continue to support the tasks of the reform, and help the work, at the same time Guan Yu decided to increase the production of military equipment, continue to increase investment, and double the expansion on the basis of the original reform. At the same time, under the rule of the whole continued to recruit volunteers, ready to expand the strength of 200,000 people, which is also an unprecedented feat, now Guan Yu has more than 200,000 troops, after the expansion is ready to increase the number of troops to 500,000, so that the source of soldiers ranks first among the princes.

Guan Yu's plan has increased his confidence in the future, or more confidence in the future. Looking at the princes of the world: Yuan Shaoxiong occupies a part of Jizhou, Qingzhou and Youzhou in Hebei, and his strength is okay, but his strength will not exceed 200,000 at best; Cao Cao's strength in Yanzhou, Dongjun, Xuzhou and other places should not be underestimated, but after several conquests, his strength was greatly damaged, and more than 100,000 troops were left to die; Looking at Yuan Shu's possession of Huainan and Nanyang, the number of troops has been greatly increased, but it will not exceed 200,000; Sun Cexiong's foothold in Jiangdong has just not been stable, and his army is only 100,000 people; Liu Biao has been in Jingzhou for many years, but he has not been able to advocate martial arts, and the number of troops will not exceed 200,000; Yizhou Liu Zhang's troops will not exceed 200,000; As for Han Sui, Zhang Lu, Gongsun Zhan and others, the number of troops will not exceed more than 10 thousand; If your own army increases to 500,000, it will really be a tiger in all directions, and you will see all the mountains at a glance!
