Chapter 31: Another Red Face

Liu Qi returned to Wancheng to visit the Malay newspaper, and Xiahoudun led 100,000 troops to attack Bowang, and rushed to the front line non-stop.

Nanyang has Chu Yu Xiong Domain, Qin and Wu throat said, surrounded by mountains on three sides and one side of water, west of Qinling, north of Funiu Mountain, east of Tongbai Mountain, Chu State once built the Great Wall here to reject the Central Plains.

From the Central Plains into the Nanyang Basin, there is a long and narrow corridor, during which the hills and low mountains are all over, and Bowang is one of the key places.

Xiahou sent his troops to Bowang, divided the men and horses into three battalions and surrounded the city far away, and Yu Ban and Han Hao each led an army to completely block the entire passage.

After the camp was completed, Xiahoudun was ready to go out of the camp to call for battle, Han Hao said: "Guan Yu is guarding the city, you can't fight with it, it's better to attack in three ways, and break the city as soon as possible while Liu Qi and Xu Shu have not arrived." ”

Xiahoudun sneered: "Guan Yu has no plans, why be afraid? I will capture it, and it will be easy to break the city again. ”

Under an order, Cao Ying's drums sounded loudly, shaking the four fields, and rushing to the city of Xinye, filled with smoke and dust, covering the sky and the sun.

Guan Yu stood at the head of the city, glanced at Cao Jun coldly, and saw that Xiahou was in person, and ordered: "Follow a certain to meet the enemy!" ”

Wen Yan said: "Cao's army is strong, hold on and don't come out." ”

Guan Yu smiled proudly: "Xiahou is often defeated, why be afraid? When the soldiers are approaching the city, if they do not reject the enemy and rub the prestige of our army, will they not be laughed at? ”

Wei Yan also saw such a huge scene for the first time, and laughed loudly: "What Yun Chang said is extremely true, the two of us will go to kill the majesty of Cao's army first, and General Wen will defend the city. ”

With the sound of drums in the city, the city gate opened, and the red rabbit horse was like a flame, raising its hooves and neighing, and the sound was like a cracked silk.

"Xiahoudun, come and die!" Guan Yu immediately stabbed his sword, lifted his beard and coldly glanced at the audience, and Cao Jun was in a commotion.

Xiahoudun stared at Guan Yu vigilantly with one eye, and instructed his own soldiers: "Be careful of sneak attacks!" ”

Just as he was about to step forward to meet the enemy and lure Guan Yu to the front of the army and shoot arrows indiscriminately, the deputy general Zhang Nan asked for his life: "The last general is willing to take the lead and sacrifice Guan Yu's head under his command." ”

Xiahoudun nodded and said: "Don't underestimate the enemy, just lead him to the front of the army!" ”

Zhang Nan surrendered to Cao Cao, killed countless enemies during the expedition to Wuhuan, and was promoted to a partial general for meritorious service, and was full of confidence, fighting horses and going out of battle, pointing a gun at Guan Yu: "Guan Yu, your death is coming!" ”

Wei Yan hugged his fists and said: "Kill chickens with a knife? Let me! ”

"Wen Chang be careful!" Guan Yu nodded slightly, revealing a hint of a smile.

Guan Yu is arrogant and has always been indifferent to the generals, but when he saw Wei Yanshi, his demeanor was calm, and everyone thought it was because of his red face.

But he didn't know that Guan Yu admired Wei Yan because he saw that Wei Yan was strong in martial arts and arrogant.

Guan Yu was forced by the wealthy family, killed people and took refuge in the rivers and lakes, and made friends with all the heroes of the green forest, knowing the suffering of the world, hating the nobles and pitying the people.

After having fame, he is arrogant but not humiliated, bullying the strong but not bullying the weak, and he is very important to the powerful generals, and he sneers at the children of the family who are in high positions by virtue of their family power.

Wei Yan rode out of the battle, and Zhang Nan shouted: "Who is coming?" ”

"Wei Yan is also!" Wei Yan was even more verbose, and took Zhang Nan directly on his horse.

Zhang Nan was furious, raised his spear and stabbed him, but was shaken away by Wei Yan's swing of the knife, and he lazily slashed at the waist with a backhand, Zhang Nan hurriedly dodged.

The two horses staggered, and they turned around to fight, but after four or five together, Zhang Nan couldn't parry, remembered Xiahoudun's instructions, turned the horse's head and left.

"Want to go? Leave Er's dog head first! Wei Yan shouted violently, urged the horse to catch up, and slashed from behind with a knife.

Zhang Nan heard the wind behind his head, and hurriedly lay on the back of the horse to dodge, but Wei Yan had already expected it, and the big knife slashed down diagonally.

I saw a cold light pass by, Zhang Nan and the head of the mount were cut off, and the dust rolled down, and the two corpses rolled endlessly, and blood sprayed everywhere like a fountain.

Cao Jun was in an uproar, and Xiahoudun narrowed one eye, and exclaimed, "Another red-faced one? ”

"Look at me and take revenge on this man!" Anxious and angry, he urged the horse to enter the field.

He and Zhang Nan were both Yuan's generals, and they had a deep friendship, and when they saw Zhang Nan killed, they came to take revenge.

It was too late for Xiahoudun to persuade him, so he had to be ready to respond at any time, and he rushed to the front of the battle, and was killed by Wei Yan in a big mess within Shihe.

Xiahoudun shouted: "The anxiety touches back quickly!" "The crossbowmen have been prepared for the battle.

Wei Yan was so embarrassed that he walked away, but he didn't chase after him, and laughed loudly: "One-eyed dragon, do you dare to try a certain blade?" ”

"My sword is not a disadvantage!" Xiahoudun was most jealous of others saying that he was one-eyed, and when he heard this, he was furious and came to fight Wei Yan.

The drums of the two armies were loud, and the two generals fought in circles in the field, and more than 30 of them did not distinguish between victory and defeat, Xiahou was secretly frightened, and the unknown general had such strength.

After more than ten battles, when the horse was circled, his eyes just saw Guan Yu dialing the horse, and the red rabbit horse was swinging his head and hoofing in front of the formation, as if he wanted to rush out, and his heart was shocked.

But he forgot that he only had one eye, and he glanced at Guan Yu, and the other side became a dead end.

Wei Yan slashed with a knife, coupled with distraction, and when he heard the sound of breaking the wind, the blade was already approaching.

Xiahoudun exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly lowered his head to dodge, the tip of the knife swept over his head, hit the helmet, and suddenly his head was shocked, and his eyes were full of stars.

"General be careful!" When Cao Jun saw Xiahou Xuan's helmet being cut off, he shouted in unison in fright.

Xiahoudun was frightened, and he was worried that Guan Yu would attack him, so he didn't dare to fight anymore, so he fled after hitting the horse.

Guan Yu was just a little impatient waiting before the battle just now, the two were fighting, he didn't bother to make a sneak attack at all, and at this time, seeing that Xiahou was defeated, he led his troops to rush and kill.

Xiahoudun retreated in embarrassment, the Chinese army was suddenly in chaos, and then saw Guan Yu rushing to kill, Cao's army was cowardly before fighting, and the formation was in chaos.

Guan Ping on the flank led the troops to respond, followed Wei Yan, and rushed straight to the rioting Cao army on the left and right.

The red rabbit horse was like a meteor flame, carrying Guan Yu to gallop with a knife, rushing to the front of the formation with the momentum of thunder, the green dragon knife swept by, and the figure flew over.

Guan Yu's prestige had already spread all over Cao Ying, and whoever dared to fight him would follow Xiahoudun and flee.

On the other side, Wei Yan and Guan Ping were not far behind, the war horses galloped, like a tiger into a flock of sheep, invincible, Cao's army was completely chaotic, and fled in embarrassment.

Guan Yu led the troops to attack with victory, preparing to rush straight to the camp of the Chinese army, but Yu Ban and Han Hao had already been in a tight position, and the middle road gave way to the chaotic army, and the arrows on both wings were fired together, and the arrows were like flying locusts, which were impermeable.

The Jingzhou soldiers slaughtered for a while, the corpses outside the city were all over the place, and the blood flowed like a river, and the Cao army did not dare to attack, watching them snatch the weapons and return triumphantly.

Xiahoudun returned to the camp in embarrassment, sweating profusely, holding his head in shock, and at this time he still felt that his brain was buzzing.

Yu Ban and the two of them killed and retreated the enemy army, and returned to the camp and said: "Today's army is defeated and morale is low, so it is better to temporarily retreat to Mopo." ”

"I'm just being plotted, how can I say failure?" Xiahou was dumbfounded and said angrily: "Tomorrow, the whole army will attack the city, if you don't kill Wei Yan and capture Guan Yu, I swear not to be a man!" ”

Han Hao said worriedly: "Guan Yu is brave, and Wei Yan is the auxiliary, I am afraid that they will come to rob the camp tonight." ”

"Camp robbery?" Xiahoudun rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "If Guan Yu really dares to come, I will capture him!" ”

Yu Ban comprehended, hugged his fists and said: "If you can turn defeat into victory, you will break the city tomorrow!" ”

Xiahoudun smiled coldly, and ordered the troops to be regrouped and deployed in the camp secretly.
