After Zhang Liao led the remaining tiger and leopard cavalry back to the opposite bank, he looked at the tiger and leopard cavalry that had lost hundreds of horses in the battle with the Bai Yu soldiers, and his face could not hide his shame.

Ci is not in charge of the troops, Zhang Liao does not care how many tigers and leopards have been killed.

What Zhang Liao cared about was that after losing hundreds of tiger and leopard elites, he could not take the south bank for Cao Cao.

Zhang Liao came to Cao Cao and bowed to him, and pleaded guiltily, "The minister is incompetent and cannot make contributions to the king."

In the face of Zhang Liao's invitation to fight, Cao Cao had no intention of punishing him.

Even for Cao Cao, he didn't think that Zhang Liao had made meritorious contributions.

Cao Cao looked at the tidal flat in front of him with a pair of eyes that had experienced the world, because there was stagnant water on the tidal flat, so there were horseshoe prints on some ground.

He said to Zhang Liao, "Wenyuan, you have already made meritorious contributions."

Hearing Cao Cao say this, Zhang Liao couldn't help but be surprised.

In response to the puzzlement on Zhang Liao's face, Cao Cao drove forward, came to the river, and said to the generals behind him: "Fang Cai Wenyuan, you have proved for Gu that the continent and tidal flats in this river are feasible for an army."

"If this is the case, how can it not be regarded as meritorious service?"

"As long as it's feasible here, over time, more and more land in the water will be exposed.

At that time, how will the enemy stop our army from taking the south bank?"

The generals of Cao Wei who were present originally had a sense of depression in their hearts because of Zhang Liao's retreat.

But after Cao Cao's analysis, everyone's hearts were all uplifted.

This is the charm of Cao Cao, the king of Wei.

Cao Cao, who has made outstanding achievements in battle and has outstanding achievements, does not need to deliberately boost the morale of the army through heavy rewards like Sun Quan.

With him, it is just a matter of one sentence to boost the morale of the military.

After finishing speaking, Cao Cao looked at the opposite side, a general who had just arrived with his troops.

Time has passed, but the style of the old people is still the same.

But why do you have to be my enemy?

...

Guan Yu received the news of the attack on Zhao Yun's troops in the camp, and he learned that it was Cao Cao's general Zhang Liao who personally led the tiger and leopard cavalry to attack.

Guan Yu was worried about Zhao Yun's safety, and hurriedly led thousands of troops from the camp to help.

After Guan Yu led the army to the battlefield, Zhang Liao and the tiger and leopard cavalry had already retreated in time.

Guan Yu looked at the war horses in the river and the corpses left by the enemy, and then observed the corpses left by the white soldiers on the river, and found that the number of white soldiers killed in battle was one-third more than that of the enemy army.

It's just that the tiger and leopard cavalry is one of the few cavalry troops in the world, and under normal circumstances, the cavalry army and the infantry army have an advantage in battle, so it is normal to have this kind of battle loss ratio.

The most important thing is that Zhao Yun held his position.

Otherwise, once the Wei army's tiger and leopard cavalry rushed ashore, looking at the Wei army's foot soldiers who had already been neatly arranged on the other bank, Guan Yu could think of how serious the consequences would be.

After Zhao Yun saw Guan Yu's army leading the army to help, he rode his horse to Guan Yu and said to him, "Yun Chang, as I expected, the enemy army is already trying to break through our army's defense line from the rest of the place."

Guan Yu's face was heavy, and he said to Zhao Yun, "If it weren't for Zilong today, the enemy army would really be successful."

….

"It's just that for a long time, if you keep it for a long time, you will lose it."

When Guan Yu said this, his eyes were fixed on the many horseshoe prints in the river.

What Cao Cao could think of, he naturally wouldn't ignore it.

Just don't ignore what.

He has too few troops at his disposal.

When he sent troops from Gangneung to the Northern Expedition, he only had 30,000 troops in his hands.

Later, although he fought several enemy troops, most of them won by calculation, and the loss of his own soldiers and horses was not high.

But under the repeated battles, the troops in his hands have also suffered a certain loss.

Especially before the captives

Xu Huang's more than 10,000 elite soldiers forced him to send 2,000 soldiers to escort them south to Jiangling.

So he now has only about 20,000 troops left.

In order to prevent Cao Cao's 100,000 troops from going south, he relied on the Han River, a natural defense line outside Xiangyang City, to resist the 100,000 Wei army with more than 20,000 troops in his hands.

But now, with the gradual reduction of the amount of Han water, the Han water defense line has gradually lost its effectiveness.

Zhao Yun followed Guan Yu's worried gaze, and he also knew what Guan Yu was worried about.

But the time of heaven can not be reversed by manpower.

At this time, Guan Yu saw a man wearing a crown on the other side of the bank who had been watching him, and Guan Yu rode forward and came to the shore to look at him.

Thinking of all the things back then, Guan Yuyu immediately bowed to Cao Cao.

Although the camps are different now, fighting on the battlefield, Cao Cao had the grace to support him and take care of him at the beginning.

Cao Cao's kindness has already been returned.

This love, he can only repay it by bowing from afar.

After that, the two broke off their affection and were just enemies.

When Cao Cao saw Guan Yu bowing to him, he couldn't help but laugh immediately.

This is the Guan Yunchang he has been asking for.

Grievances and grievances are clear, and loyalty comes first.

After laughing, Cao Cao took out an official seal from his bosom, which he had given to Guan Yu in the first place.

When Guan Yu left him to look for Liu Bei, he put this official seal at the door of his mansion.

And since that day, this official seal has been carried by him.

Holding this official seal that he had carefully carved for Guan Yu at the beginning, looking at the three big characters "partial general" engraved on it, Cao Cao's eyes turned from warm at the beginning to cold.

He threw the seal to the other side.

The official seal lost its strength from mid-air and fell into the river and landed in front of Guan Yu's eyes.

At this moment, Cao Mengde, who was in love with Guan Yun for a long time, was no longer there.

All that remains is Cao Cao, the king of Wei, who is about to capture and kill Guan Yu, the former general of the Han Dynasty, and Cao Cao, the king of Wei, who guards the Great Wei Sheji.

After Cao Cao did this, he ordered the generals behind him to camp here, and then he himself returned to the camp under the escort of Xu Chu.

It is also a great thing in the world that people become enemies.

After Cao Cao left, Guan Yu looked at Cao Cao's back, and he resolutely turned his head to Zhao Yun and said, "In less than half a month, there will definitely be a fierce battle between our army and the Wei army."

"Urgently report to the king, and ask him to quickly lead the army to help."

...

December of the twenty-fourth year of Han Jian'an, Ba County, Yubei County.

Liu Bei led the army to Yubei County yesterday night.

After just arriving in Yubelly County, because he was worried about the military situation in Jingzhou, Liu Bei, who had not been resting for an hour, convened the generals who were now in Yubelly County to discuss the meeting.

….

Ba County was close to Jingzhou, and when Liu Bei led the army to Yubei County, there was more information about the battle situation in Jingzhou.

At this time, in the meeting hall of the county government of Yubei County, Liu Bei, the king of Hanzhong, was sitting on the top and looking at the information in his hand.

And the ministers of Chengdu that he brought this time, as well as the generals who had been summoned by him to come to Yuyu County first, were all gathered below him at this moment, waiting for his next royal order.

Because the public security is farther away from Yizhou, what Liu Bei is looking at now is the battle report of the victory over Sun Huan that Mi Yang delivered not long ago.

After reading Mi Yang's battle report, a slight smile finally appeared on Liu Bei's worried face.

He said to Xu Jing on the side, "Qing Zhen knows people."

When he was outside of shooting mountains in Chengdu, Xu Jing once praised Liu Bei for Mi Yang: smart and changeable, and he knows what to do.

Now the battle report sent by Mi Yang describes in detail the process of leading his troops to fight against Sun Huan.

And in the eyes of a soldier like Liu Bei, Mi Yang is worthy of praise like Xu Jing.

Now Liu Bei is more and more fond of Mi Yang.

He was worried that the Mi clan would fall after his death, so he took Mi Yang with him since he was a child and trained him, hoping that he would make some achievements when he grew up.

And now Mi Yang has really made some achievements according to the expectations in his heart.

Liu Bei, who felt that he had cultivated a talented person by himself, felt that the sense of joy and satisfaction in his heart was difficult for others to understand.

At this time, a general in the hall came out and said to Liu Beijin:

"Great King, the ancients said that meritorious deeds will be rewarded, and if there is a fault, punishment will be given, and it can inspire the people to do everything."

"Today, the general's main book first has the merit of the public security hoe girl, and then the merit of defeating Sun Huan, such a great merit cannot be rewarded."

The person who came out to Liu Bei and said that he wanted to reward Mi Yang was Li Yan, the current general of the Auxiliary Han Dynasty.

Li Yan, the word is square, a person from Nanyang, Jingzhou.

When Li Yan was young, he was a full-time official in the county and was known for his talent. At that time, Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao asked him to serve in the counties of the county.

When Cao Cao attacked Jingzhou, Li Yanzheng was the commander of Zigui County, because he was unwilling to surrender to Cao Cao, Li Yan went west to Shu. Liu Zhang used him as the county magistrate of Chengdu, and Li Yan gained a virtuous name during his tenure.

When Liu Bei attacked Yizhou, Liu Zhang appointed Li Yan as the protector and resisted Liu Bei in the Mianzhu area.

Li Yan knew that he was invincible, and led his subordinates to surrender to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei appointed him as General Pi.

After pacifying Chengdu, Li Yan was appointed by Liu Bei as the general of Qianwei Taishou and Xingye

Later, Liu Bei appointed the military division general Zhuge Liang, the general Yangwu and the Shu County Tai Shoufa Zheng, the Zhaowen general Yin Ji, the left general Xi Cao Peng, Liu Ba and Li Yan to formulate the "Shu Branch" together.

Last year, thieves Ma Qin, Gao Sheng and others raised troops in Yu County, recruited tens of thousands of troops, and attacked Zizhong County. At that time, Liu Bei was in Hanzhong, and Shuzhong was empty.

Li Yan did not choose to wait for reinforcements, he only led 5,000 soldiers from his county to the crusade and killed Ma Qin, Gao Sheng and others. The rest of the people scattered and fled for their lives, and returned to their homes for the people.

Soon after, Gao Ding, the commander of Yueshan County, led an army to besiege Xindao County, and Li Yan went to relieve the siege, but Gao Ding was defeated and fled.

Because of these military exploits, Liu Bei then crowned Li Yan as the general of the Auxiliary Han Dynasty, and concurrently served as the former county guard.

Not long ago, Liu Bei heard that Jingzhou was in trouble, and in order to take precautions, he summoned the generals of Yizhou to wait in Yubei County.

….

Li Yan was also recruited by Liu Bei because of his previous military exploits.

Li Yan has a lonely and arrogant temperament, and it is difficult to get along with ordinary people, but he still has a few friends in Yizhou, such as Fa Zheng, who is also from the Dongzhou faction.

Li Yan will take the initiative to come out and advise Liu Bei to reward Mi Yang, more for the sake of Mi Yang is Fa Zheng's apprentice.

And after Liu Bei listened to Li Yan's suggestion, his face also showed a look of permission.

He said to Li Yan, "The right words are reasonable."

Liu Bei agreed with Li Yan's suggestion, one was because Mi Yang had established his military exploits this time.

The other is that Jingzhou is now facing the danger of being flanked, and the enemy is strong, in order to stabilize and inspire people, he wants to set up a model before the war.

And this typical, Mi Yang is the most suitable candidate.

Liu Bei brought Xu Jing, who was not familiar with military affairs, with him into Jingzhou, in order to use his reputation to stabilize the heart of the Jingzhou family.

As for Guan Yu's siege and killing of Xu Huang and the destruction of the Wei army, his contribution is undoubtedly greater, why didn't Liu Bei choose to reward him?

That's because in terms of status, Guan Yu's former general is already the respect of all generals.

In terms of power, Guan Yu was stationed in Jingzhou and supervised the town for one side.

And Liu Bei has already given Guan Yu the right to fake the festival, in Liu Bei's absence, Guan Yu can act as the king, how can this be rewarded.

Since the beginning of this year, Liu Bei has helped him remember all the credits he has made.

When that day comes in the future, there will be a most respected position that must be given to Guan Yu.

After finishing speaking, Liu Bei began to think about what reward to give Mi Yang.

But before Liu Bei could think about it, Chen Zhi, the fish-bellied guard, came to the hall with a letter.

Liu

Bei saw that Chen Zhi's face seemed to be anxious, which made his face immediately heavy.

Chen Zhi's impression of Liu Bei has always been calm and steady, and it is rare for this kind of face to appear now.

Liu Bei's ceremonial officer was about to reprimand Chen Zhi for entering without notification, but before he could speak, he was glared back by a look from Liu Bei.

After glaring at the ceremonial officer, Liu Bei immediately asked Chen Daodao, "Is it that Yun Chang has come to report?"

Chen Zhi nodded when he heard this, and seeing this, Liu Bei hurriedly got up from his seat and came to Chen Dao, and couldn't wait to take the latest letter from Guan Yu from him.

After opening the letter, Liu Bei looked at it at a glance.

Guan Yu made it clear in the intelligence that he was currently facing a critical situation.

And Guan Yu, who had a premonition that he might not be safe, said at the end of the letter:

"More than 20,000 soldiers are desperately trying to stop the enemy, the enemy's offensive is still unabated, and the future is uncertain.

If Xiangyang exists, the younger brother should survive and see the elder brother. If Hanshui is lost, my brother will die in the field, and his body will be anointed.

If his brother can repel a strong enemy, he will lead his troops to the side of the Han River.

If there are waves, then the younger brother has come to see the elder brother."

After reading the last sentence, Liu Bei's face showed a strong look of panic and worry, and he stood in the hall, stomping his feet in a hurry.

This is the first time since the accident in Jingzhou that Guan Yu has called himself a younger brother in a letter asking for help.

"Why this, why this!"

"Brother has arrived!"

Liu Bei only received the first letter for help from Guan Yu in November.

….

In order to support Guan Yu as soon as possible, when he was in Chengdu, he issued an edict almost every day urging all counties not to delay the date of sending troops.

During that time, Liu Bei almost lived in Shangshutai.

Now it was only December, and he had gathered 30,000 troops to Yubei County, not far from Jingzhou.

Guan Yu also wrote to him before that there was Han Shui blocking the Wei army's iron cavalry, and there was no danger of defeat in the short term.

But despite Guan Yu's words, Liu Bei still didn't delay a day.

What I didn't expect was that the situation at the front changed so quickly.

Liu Bei couldn't care about rewarding Mi Yang at this time, and he immediately ordered the ministers in the hall, "Send troops to Xiangyang immediately!"

After Liu Bei issued this edict, one of the ministers in the hall came out and said:

"The northerners are fighting fiercely, the army should have a vanguard, find out the enemy's situation, please be the pioneer to be the queen, and the king should be the rear town."

The name of the person who came out to speak was Huang Quan, the word Gongheng, and he was currently engaged in Liu Bei's governance.

Huang Quan's proposal is very pertinent.

Unexpectedly, after Huang Quan's admonition, Liu Bei immediately rejected the proposal.

"My brother is in trouble, how can I wait!"

"I don't need you to be my pioneer, my brother is in trouble, and his brother should be my own pioneer!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Bei waved his royal sleeves, and he said to all the generals present, "Immediately order the army! Immediately go on the expedition."

"Anyone who dares to snub the military aircraft will be killed."

Knowing that he couldn't do it, in order to save Guan Yu, Liu Bei was not afraid to take risks.

Not long after, Huang Zhong, who had just arrived in Yidu County, received Liu Bei's edict.

"At all costs, Keri arrived at the city of Xiangyang."

Mi Han.
