964 Decisive Battle of Carrying the Coffin
Mo Qianxun was very dissatisfied with this, and helped Guan Yu, which was equivalent to helping Liu Bei invisibly. Taking a step back, Mo Qianxun would rather help Cao Cao than Liu Bei, but Guan Yu's domineering is conceivable, just don't let him go.
There is a small banquet in three days, and a big banquet in five days, sometimes with a cold face, sometimes with a smile on his face, which makes Mo Qianxun have no choice.
Guan Yu didn't forget to send a letter to Wang Baoyu, explaining that he hoped that Mo Qianxun would stay for the time being, what could Wang Baoyu say, Guan Yu was the second brother of righteousness, so he could only agree, once Cao Cao was dissatisfied with this, it could also be said that Mo Qianxun had his own idea.
Although Guan Yu is domineering, Mo Qianxun is Pang Tong's rebirth, although his temperament has changed, his arrogance cannot be changed lightly, and it is inevitable that his words and deeds will be on the table. Guan Yu only pretended not to see it, and after some bargaining, Mo Qianxun had no choice but to agree with Guan Yu to only help come up with two ideas, and then leave.
Guan Yu laughed and nodded in agreement.
After the navy arrived, Guan Yu led the army across the Han River and surrounded Fancheng, Mo Qianxun couldn't help but remind Guan Yu that Yu Ban and Pang Decao's army were both first-class generals and must not be underestimated.
Guan Yu didn't think so, and when he drove his troops to a distance of thirty miles from Fancheng, news came from the front that Yu Ban and Pang De had set up a seven-way army, set up camp five miles away from Fancheng, and made a tough attitude of going head-to-head.
Guan Yu was a little frightened, and hurriedly asked Mo Qianxun what to do, Mo Qianxun thought for a while and said: "Pang De once served under Ma Chao's account, and his brother was an official in Shuzhong, so it is better to be demoted." ā
"I have heard that Pound has a resolute temperament, in the past, Ma Chao surrendered to the lord, and Pound would rather live under the people, depressed, and do not surrender lightly. Now that it is reused by Cao Cao, how can he surrender? Guan Yu frowned.
"Even if it doesn't fall, it can make a gap between it and Yu Bansheng, and divide the power of the two." Mo Qianxun said.
Guan Yu listened to Mo Qianxun's opinion, sent someone to the other party's camp, and sent a letter to Pang De. To the effect that your brother is in Shuzhong, and Ma Chao, the former brother of life and death, is also here, whether he is close to the family or not, why bother to work for Cao Cao, and the brothers gather to talk about joy, isn't it happy?
Enraged, Pound immediately killed the messenger with a sword, and then tried to burn the letter as a sign of loyalty.
Since he was loyal to the King of Wei, why was he in a hurry to burn the letter? Yu Ban was puzzled, stepped forward to stop him, and after reading the letter, he felt even more frightened. So I had a long talk with Pound, hoping that he would think about the overall situation and resign from the vanguard.
Although Yu Ban's tone was very tactful, Pound was still full of displeasure and argued: "Why is General Yu suspicious? Pound surrendered to the lord from Hanzhong, and felt deeply gracious, although he was full of liver and brain, he could not repay him. When I was in my hometown, I was not on good terms with my brother, my sister-in-law was vicious, and I was killed by Pound, and my brother hated me to the core. Clearly saying that they are brothers, in fact they are no different from enemies! ā
"You have a lot of love with Ma Chao!" Yu Ban said bluntly.
"I was favored by Ma Chao back then, and I swore to follow him, which is true. But now each is his master, and he has long been cut off, and he abandoned me to join Liu in Hanzhong, how could he remember that I was sick in bed for many days? If you talk about friendship, Zhang Lu treats me okay and saves my life. I have been with that Ma Chao for a long time, and if it weren't for that, the lord would have sent me! ā
Pound said it sincerely, every sentence was reasonable, and Yu Ban and Pound had been dating for a long time, so he knew this person better. But when marching and fighting, there is no room for mistakes, and he is still worried, lest Pound remember the old feelings and refuse to contribute.
Because of Pound's resolute attitude, Yu Ban retreated, although he was not removed from the position of pioneer, but his expression was still full of distrust, and he even sent his cronies to pay close attention to Pound's every move.
Of course, Pound knew this and was annoyed, but he himself felt open-minded, and soon he could prove it with his actions.
Hearing that Pang De had killed the messenger, Guan Yu was furious and immediately led his army to rush over. In order to show his loyalty, Pound actually carried out a red coffin when he was raising the account the next day, which was particularly dazzling.
"Pang Xianxian, what do you mean by this?" Yu Ban was shocked, and the rest of the soldiers were also shocked.
"I received the great favor of the King of Wei and swore to repay him with death. If I can't kill the enemy, I will be killed by him, so I will prepare this coffin to show that I will never return empty. Pound snapped.
Everyone sighed at Pound's loyalty, and while he couldn't help but sigh, his face showed displeasure, he was not suspicious of Pound now, but felt that it was really unlucky to carry a coffin into battle.
Pound handed a letter in his arms to Yu Ban, and said with a straight face: "I am a pioneer now, and I should die on the battlefield." I beg the general to inform his clumsy wife, so that she can have children and raise children, and when she grows up, she will take revenge on me. ā
Yu Ban was deeply moved and burst into tears. Ma Chao is the old master of Pound, and his brother is not harmonious, where can it compare to the deep love between father and son? Pound clearly bet the lives of his family on the forbidden hands, in order to prove that he has no distractions.
Yu Ban showed a look of guilt, he shouldn't have fallen for Guan Yu's plan to sow discord, all his suspicions were removed, and with a wave of his hand, he immediately announced that Pang De would lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to fight Guan Yu.
After Pang De left, the strategist was full of favor but worried: "Pang De relies on the courage of blood and energy, and Guan Yu is both wise and brave, I am very worried!" ā
Yu Banyan was stunned when he heard this, and knew that the matter was serious, so he immediately led an army of 20,000 to set off, preparing to meet Pang De at any time when it was critical.
Guan Yu led the army forward for twenty miles, just when he met Pang De's army, and the two armies opened their formation. Pang De rode out of the horse, wearing a cyan robe, covered with silver armor, a white horse under his crotch, and a large knife in his hand, majestic and majestic.
"Pound does have the style of a general." Guan Yu praised it, stroked his long hair, and was about to go to battle.
Guan Ping pleaded: "Father Taishan is heavy, there is no need to compete with the stubborn stone, I am willing to fight Pang De on behalf of my father." ā
"It's okay, be extra careful, once you lose the enemy, retreat immediately, and I will take it." Guan Yu nodded.
Guan Ping had just come to the front of the battle, but he saw that in the middle of Pang De's formation, a group of soldiers walked out carrying a red coffin, and Guan Yu and others in the rear were shocked, not understanding what kind of trick Pang De was doing.
"Pound, what do you mean by this?" Guan Ping was stunned for a moment, and then asked in a loud voice.
Pang De looked at it coldly, saw that it was a fair-skinned descendant, and asked disdainfully, "Who are you?" ā
"I am the son of Guan Yu, Guan Ping is also!" Guan Ping said loudly.
"At the behest of the King of Wei, I have come to take your father's head. Huangkou child, the milk smell has not dried, quickly retreat, and quickly call Guan Yunchang to come to fight to the death. If this coffin can't hold me, it will be given to Guan Yu. Pound said in a loud voice.
"General Guan, Pang De carried the coffin for a decisive battle, his courage was obvious, and he hoped to retreat to kill his ambition." Mo Qianxun built yƬ road.
