Chapter 136: Breaking Fan City and taking advantage of the victory to march into the army
As soon as Zhao Shu arrived in Jingzhou, there was news that Guan Yu had broken through Fancheng, on the fifth day of Zhao Shu's way to Jingzhou, Guan Yu raised troops to attack Fancheng, and after the grain and grass ordnance were supplied, Guan Yu brought out the Jingzhou army showed the essence of the word elite, defeated in Pang De, surrendered in Ban, and Xu Huang's reinforcements were delayed, Cao Ren no longer had the ability to hold on to Fancheng, and abandoned the city that night and fled to Xu Huang to join forces with Xu Huang, in order to hold on, waiting for Cao Cao to lead the troops in person.

After two days, Gao Ping sent a scout horse to report, and Lü Meng really led a large army to attack Runan. Guo Huai also escorted the grain and grass of Nanjun and the Second Public Security Department to come. Zhao Shu was still not at ease with Dongwu, so he left Guo Huai to cooperate with Pan Jun to guard Jingzhou. Left 5,000 Shangyong soldiers and horses to defend the city, and Gao Ping quarreled for a while about this, after all, the Shangyong army was his cronies and horses brought out. There is no way to do this, continue to defend the city with Jingzhou soldiers and horses, won't Guo Huai be suppressed everywhere?
Zhao Shu and Gao Ping took the soldiers and horses all the way north and crossed the Xiangshui. One day, no one rode out of the city to meet Fancheng. Zhao Shu asked Gao Ping to go down to the village outside the city, and he and Guan Feng took more than 1,000 soldiers to escort the grain and grass into the city. Guan Feng saw Zhao Shu send out troops, and he still followed the army, but they were separated from each other, not as close as before, which also made Zhao Shu feel very disappointed.
After entering the city, the grain and grass will be handed over to the Zhou Cang guarding the city gate. Say hello to Guan Yu's residence, and ride to Guan Feng and beyond. When they arrived at the door, the gatekeepers knew Zhao Shu and Guan Feng and hurriedly reported it. Come back in a moment and invite Zhao Shu and the others in.
Coming to the living room, Guan Yu, Guan Ping, and Ma Liang sat inside. Zhao Shu stepped forward and saluted, and said with a smile: "The prince broke through Fancheng, and the Central Plains shook. Shu has reported to the king of Hanzhong, and he should be rewarded."
"Thanks to Mr. Food." Guan Yu's tone obviously didn't mean to be grateful, he glanced at Zhao Shu and said, "Since Mr. has arrived in Fancheng, please go back to Zhenjingzhou."
Zhao Shu said with a smile: "Jingzhou and the commander-in-chief of Pan Zhizhong, the general doesn't need to worry. Now that Fancheng is broken, why not use this victorious army to attack Wancheng in the north. to figure the Central Plains."
"Hmph, without the order of my brother Wang, how dare I raise troops without authorization?" Guan Yu estimated that he was also concerned about his base, and said: "The soldiers and horses of Jingzhou have been fighting for days, and most of them are tired, so they should rest."
"The prince's words are wrong." Zhao Shu was naturally reluctant to let Guan Yu go back, so he said: "Now that Fancheng has been broken, Lu Ziming of Eastern Wu has led a large army to attack Runan. The prince is right to go north to Wan, Luo, so that Cao Thief Tail can't take care of it."
"Lu Meng sent troops to Runan?" Guan Yu was also quite surprised when he heard the news, and asked, "What Mr. said is the truth?"
"Naturally." Zhao Shu carefully talked about the letter of 6 Xun again, and said: "Shu has been on the table of the lord, please take the prince as the commander, the Central Plains of the North Map. The lord has already gone out of Qinchuan and taken Yongliang from the two rivers."
"Yes." Guan Yu couldn't help but nodded, it was really like this, and Cao Cao really couldn't take care of it.
Guan Feng looked at Zhao Shu from the side and asked, "Father is handsome and marching north, so doesn't Jingzhou want you to guard it?"
Guan Yu suddenly came back to his senses and said coldly: "A certain soldier is not as good as Mr., it is better for Mr. to take command. A certain person also guarded Jingxiang and prepared grain and grass for Mr.
"Haha." Zhao Shu looked at Guan Feng, it seemed that Guan Yu still weighed heavily in her heart, ignored her, and said to Guan Yu: "Shu Wen Wancheng Sima Yi has nearly 100,000 soldiers, Shangyong, and Jingzhou has less than 80,000 soldiers and horses. Naturally, you have to march together to have a chance to win. Jingzhou has Pan Zhizhong, Nanjun, and Mi in the public security, Fu Erjiang, all of whom are the king's henchmen, and they should prepare grain and grass for Shu. Why bother?"
"Hmph." Guan Yu is at odds with Mi and Fu on weekdays, but now that the two of them are attached to me, I am not surprised, but I said coldly: "Mr. has attracted these two again, and this Jingzhou will also belong to Mr."
"Why did the prince say this?" Zhao Shu said: "Serving the same king, how dare Shu be selfish?" I only hope that the prince can break through Wan and Luo, take the Central Plains in the north, and stabilize the Han family, so as to become the lord and the king."
Guan Yu stared at Zhao Shu, and suddenly said to Guan Ping, Ma Liang, and Guan Feng: "You guys step back first, I have something to talk to Mr. alone." Guan Ping and Ma Liang bowed and retreated.
Seeing that Guan Feng was not leaving, Guan Yu frowned and said, "Why can't you go down yet?"
"Father." Guan Feng looked at Guan Yu and whispered, "He was always sent by his uncle, you ......"
"Haha." Guan Yu laughed and said, "Where did Wu'er go?" On the same day, Changsha missed an arrow, how could the father make a second move? Stand down." Guan Feng left slowly.
Zhao Shu saw that the three of them had retreated, so he asked, "What does the prince command?"
Guan Yu suddenly sighed and said, "You and Kong Ming's talents, if you can work together, why don't you worry about the big brother's hegemony?"
Why didn't Zhao Shu know? Factional strife is enough to destroy the country. When I first came to these three kingdoms, I also wanted to help Liu Bei complete the great cause of dominating the world, but later I was assassinated one after another. Then Zhang Song, Pang Tong was killed, not long ago, his father-in-law, Zhang Bao's death, who is to blame?
Zhao Shu doesn't want to fight with Kong Ming and Fazheng, can they let me go? I am willing to die for Liu Bei, can he trust me wholeheartedly? I didn't feel like I sighed when I thought of this: "Shu only wants to protect himself."
"Sir, now that he has tens of thousands of soldiers, isn't it enough to protect himself?"
"The heavier the military power, the more jealous Kong Ming and Fa Zheng become. And the king is more and more uneasy." I saw that after Guan Yu heard this, he was silent, and said: "The king doesn't believe in Shu, how can he trust the prince?"
Guan Yu pretended to be displeased when he heard this: "A certain and eldest brother Taoyuan have formed a righteous relationship, and life and death have been together for decades. How can the eldest brother not believe in a certain reason?"
"Haha." Zhao Shu knew that he didn't want to admit it, and he didn't want to say too deeply, so he only asked: "If you believe in the prince, why do you need Governor Shu to fight here?"
Liu Bei used Zhao Shu as the commander, because he didn't want Guan Yuquan to lead Jingzhou, if he got Nanyang again, Guan Yu's rule would be almost the same land as him. With such subordinates, which monarch can rest assured? As for Zhao Shu, Liu Bei also knows Guan Yu's temper and will not be suppressed by me with peace of mind. Just let me fight with Guan Yuming in secret, and he will rest assured.
Guan Yu couldn't have imagined this, and when Zhao Shu asked him like this, he didn't know how to answer. I had to laugh and say: "The eldest brother treats a certain kindness, and a certain only tries his best to reciprocate. Mr. ......"
"The prince can rest assured, and Shu has no ambitions." Although Liu Bei made Zhao Shu feel cold, but I have seen China's 2,000-year-old feudal history, which dynasty and which generation of monarchs are not worried about their subordinates and disheartened? I was relieved in my heart, as long as I didn't force Zhao Shu to a dead end, Zhao Shu wouldn't be good. After all, in this era, how can a person who has no background compete for dominance in the world?
I didn't know if Guan Yuxiang didn't believe what Zhao Shu said, so I only heard Guan Yu say again: "Mr. said this, I believe it for the time being. When the eldest brother comes down, he will send troops to Wancheng."
When Chengdu passed down Liu Bei's order, wouldn't Sima Yi be ready earlier?" Xichuan is far away from this, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth. If you wait for the edict of the king of Hanzhong, won't you miss the fighter?" Xu Huang has not rescued Fancheng, and Zhao Shu estimated that Cao Cao also wanted to use Zhao Shu and Guan Yu's soldiers and horses to fight Sima Yi first, and he would not rest assured that Sima Yi had 100,000 male soldiers.
Zhao Shu said again: "General Yu Ban led the troops in Yancheng, but it was the front. Shu and the prince then responded, and pursued with the spirit of a new victory. Otherwise, the morale of Cao's army is restored and the preparations are sufficient, how can our army win?"
Guan Yu finally nodded and said, "Sir, prepare to go out of the city." A certain military horse rested for two days and then set out to fight.
