973 Fleeting

It wasn't until Fan Jinqiang and others arrived that Guan Ting learned that her brother had lost important land, and she was shocked, and hurriedly cleaned up the 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city, and wanted to come to rob Nanjun.

However, before everyone had time to get out of the city, Zhou Tai led 50,000 soldiers and horses, and came in an instant, besieging Jiangxia City.

According to Lu Meng's instructions, Zhou Tai did not attack the city, but only built a high barrier outside the city to defend, with a very simple purpose, to temporarily trap Guan Ting and others in Jiangxia.

Fan Jinqiang, Ma Yunlu and others organized many attacks, but they were all blocked by Zhou Tai's powerful guards, and they couldn't get out of Jiangxia City for a while.

Considering the emptiness of Nanjun, LΓΌ Meng hurriedly dispatched Gan Ning's 20,000 soldiers and horses to Nanjun, and together with Lu Xun, he held the city, even if Guan Yu returned, he must not be allowed to enter the city.

Since Lu Xun entered Nanjun, he adopted a strong policy of reassuring the people, ordering the soldiers not to have any looting, and once discovered, they were immediately executed. The families of Guan Yu and other soldiers have never been treated badly and live in peace.

However, it was said that Guan Yu's side was not aware of the loss of Nanjun, and he was still launching strong attacks on Fancheng again and again, Cao Ren was extremely tenacious, and he failed to take it for many days.

At this time, Cao Jun in Fancheng can be described as more than a tragic word, he is in rags, he can only eat one meal a day, he can sleep for at most one hour a day, and he can boil people to death.

Needless to say, the soldiers who died in the war also appeared one after another such tragic deeds as dying of exhaustion and starvation. Cao Ren was so anxious that because all the military supplies could not come in, he was determined to die in battle, so he simply killed all the war horses to improve the food for the big guys.

Xiangyang's side was also repeatedly attacked, and Guan Yu lost nearly 30,000 troops in the siege, and the loss was not small. When he heard that Xu Chu led an army of 50,000 troops into Xiangyang, he finally moved his mind to return to the army.

At this time, it was already the end of autumn and October, everything was sluggish, the cold wind was gusting, Guan Yu sorted out the exhausted army, and returned all the way to Nanjun. Along the way, Guan Yu said very little, and all he was thinking about was how to capture Xiangyang again in the coming year.

But what Guan Yu never expected was that Xu Huang had already led an army of 50,000 to capture Dangyang, and was waiting for him on the way back.

When Guan Yu heard this, he was very angry, he still had 100,000 troops in his hands, and he was not afraid of Xu Huang at all, so he immediately led the army and came to snatch Dangyang.

Xu Huang's subordinates Xu Shang and LΓΌ Jian went to war, Guan Yu sent his son Guan Ping, Xu Shang and LΓΌ Jian fought less than ten rounds, and they were defeated, Guan Ping chased all the way, killing thousands of Cao soldiers, and seemed to have the upper hand.

Guan Ping planned to turn back, but was intercepted by Xu Huang's sudden killing. Guan Ping's newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, so he rushed forward on horseback, swung his knife and slashed Xu Huang, Xu Huang opened the mountain with a big axe, and lightly blocked Guan Ping's blow.

Guan Ping drew the knife and slashed dozens of times, it should have used the strength of breastfeeding, and he was so tired that his sideburns were sweating and panting, but they were all opened by Xu Huang very casually.

When Guan Ping ran to him again, Xu Huang's big axe slashed through a long arc, mixed with the sound of whirring wind, and cut directly at Guan Ping's head. Guan Ping couldn't dodge, and when he saw that he was about to be in a different place, he exclaimed, my life is over!

However, Xu Huang's big sword stopped in mid-air, only to hear him laugh and say: "Guan Pingxian's nephew, his martial arts are not bad, but he is still far from your father." ”

Guan Ping's face flushed, knowing that he was not Xu Huang's opponent, but he still said stiffly: "If you die, you will die, there is no need to give in!" ”

Guan Ping swung the knife again, but he was timid in his heart, his tricks were messy, and he had already divided the victory and defeat, Xu Huang seemed to be chatting while receiving the move: "Virtuous nephew, Nanjun has been sneak attacked by Lu Meng, and now it is in the hands of Sun Quan, why is it still rampant here, I don't know how to die!" ”

Guan Ping was stunned when he heard this, and Xu Huang took advantage of this kung fu, but the big axe suddenly attacked like a wheel, Guan Ping hurriedly blocked a few knives, but it was dangerous, and he was almost cut off by an axe.

Guan Ping was uneasy and hurriedly defeated, Xu Huang led the second general, turned around and chased all the way, and the 20,000 horses led by Guan Ping lost half of them.

Guan Ping was defeated and returned to the camp, and went to find Guan Yu as soon as possible, Guan Yu glanced at his son's down-and-out appearance, and knew that he was defeated, and scolded: "Xu Shang and Lu Jian are not your opponents, why are they so miserable?" ”

Guan Ping knelt down with a face full of shame and said: "I don't want Xu Huang to intercept and kill halfway, and more than half of the casualties will be killed." ”

Xu Huang? Hearing this name, Guan Yu's brows furrowed slightly, Guan Ping didn't dare to hide it, and said stubbornly: "Father, Xu Huangyan Nanjun has been lost and was attacked by Lu Meng. ”

Guan Yu was stunned for a moment, feeling bad in his heart, but he still waved his hand to save face and said: "This must be Xu Huang's words to confuse the army, Lu Meng is seriously ill, how to sneak attack Nanjun?" ”

"General, Xu Huang is a famous general in the world, how can he joke about the future generations, this matter must be guarded against, we will go around the city and return to Nanjun quickly." Yi said anxiously.

"If you don't fight with Xu Huang, won't you let him laugh? Tomorrow, I will go in person, take Dangyang City, and then return to Nanjun. Guan Yu said stubbornly.

Early the next morning, Guan Yu poured out his army and went straight to the city of Dangyang, Xu Huang led the army out of the city and came to Guan Yu.

I saw Xu Huang put away the big axe, leaned over and said: "Since I don't bid farewell to the prince, I haven't been for a few years, I don't want the prince's beard to be white!" Time is ruthless, I still remember the teachings of the year, and I am grateful. Today's monarch and marquis's name shook China, and I was envious, and I was comforted to see it today. ”

When Guan Yu was in Cao Ying, he had a good relationship with Xu Huang, and when he heard him say this, he immediately relaxed his vigilance, put away the big knife, stroked his beard and asked with a smile: "I have a very good relationship with Gongming, not compared to others, why did you persecute my son yesterday?" ”

At this moment, Xu Huang suddenly shouted backwards: "All the soldiers go forward together, kill Guan Yu, and reward a thousand gold!" ”

The attitude before and after became so fast, Guan Yu was stunned, and asked angrily: "Why did Gongming say this?" ”

"National affairs, how can Xu Huang abolish the public privately!" After Xu Huang finished speaking, he picked up the big axe and rushed towards Guan Yu, and at this time, all the soldiers behind him also rushed forward.

Guan Yu was furious, and the Qinglong Yanyue Knife immediately turned into a cloud of light and shadow, and rushed towards Xu Huang, Xu Huang was engrossed, and he took a few moves from Guan Yu with all his strength.

Xu Huang is a power-type general, Guan Yu only felt that a huge force came from the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, and his right arm was sore, in the end, the old injury had not healed, his strength was not as good as before, and his movements were much slower.

And Xu Huang was overjoyed when he saw it, and the big axe under his hand swung more violently, Guan Yu gritted his teeth and swung his knife several times to fight Xu Huang. Guan Yu, who was injured, was still not to be underestimated, Xu Huang tried his best to resist, rarely had the opportunity to take the initiative to attack, and the two fought for hundreds of moves, and the stalemate did not distinguish between victory and defeat.

At this moment, the armies of the two sides had already fought together, and the sound of weapons clashing one after another, shouting and killing was endless, wailing all over the field, and blood was flowing all over the ground.
