Chapter 173: Swallowing Mountains and Rivers

The Qinglong Glaive Knife came with the sound, and Yan Liang only felt a chill on his neck in a panic, and then his head spun around.

Guan Yu came quickly and accurately, slashed Yan Liang with a knife to save Zhang Liao, and then danced the knife like a fierce beast and shouted, directly repelling the generals who attacked with Yan Liang.

The main general was killed in an instant, and the soldiers of the Yuan army were all shocked, and they unconsciously retreated, leaving a blank space for the place of battle.

Guan Yu turned over and jumped off the red rabbit, he was going to pick up his trophy, the dust-stained Yan Liang head.

The power of the 10,000 enemies is like a mountain and a river, as if forming a circle of enchantments around it.

Even if Guan Yu dismounted and bent over, no one dared to come forward and sneak attack.

Zhang Liao, who was embarrassed next to him, was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"General Guan is a true god."

Guan Yu tied Yan Liang's head to the horse's neck, grabbed the saddle and jumped into the red rabbit.

Raising the Qinglong Knife, he pointed in one direction and shouted to Zhang Liao:

"Kill me back."

Yan Liang, the chief general of the Yuan army, was beheaded, and the morale spread from the position of the Chinese army to the surrounding areas.

At that time, Guan Yu's surroundings were already in chaos, but even in such a chaotic situation, he could still clearly distinguish the direction.

Teams like Guan Yu and Zhang Liao who attack and dare to die will generally withdraw after tearing apart the opponent's formation.

The physical strength and energy consumed by the attacking team are several times that of ordinary battles, and it is easy to lose strength if they continue to fight, and the broken Yuan army is not a lamb, and it still has the ability to hurt people when it struggles as a trapped beast.

Fortunately, Xu Huang, who was in charge of the response, quickly rushed to the combat area.

Guan Yu rushed too fast, so fast that Xu Huang didn't keep up until Yan Liang's men and horses retreated, just like the tide receding and revealing the rocks, and also revealing the position of the death squad.

Cao Cao also led the main force to sweep away to the east wind like a gale after Xu Huang, and then drove Yan Liang's remnants of the army to pursue the victory, rushing for hundreds of miles and destroying the White Horse camp.

As the so-called defeat is like a mountain, Guo Tu and Chun Yuqiong panicked, led the defeated soldiers to cross the river and fled to the other side, many Hebei soldiers drowned in the Yellow River, and the siege of Baima was lifted.

Guan Yu had no previous style of play, and he gave Cao Cao a great credit, which was enough to offset the favor he received, and also paved the way for the later to leave, which could not be refused.

Wan Jun took the lead from it and returned, and was brilliantly presented in front of Cao Cao by Guan Yu.

In addition to being surprised, happy, and in awe, Cao Cao was also confused, because he had never seen this ability to transcend cognition in books.

Guan Yu's battle shocked the world and went down in history.

The person who has the deepest understanding of this is undoubtedly Zhang Liao, who followed him with a tiger and leopard ride.

In addition to ensuring the safety of Guan Yu's back, in fact, there are no more enemies killed along the way than Guan Yu.

Guan Yu was like a sturdy chariot, roaring forward to crush the enemy who was blocking the road, and the hundreds of tiger and leopard riders behind him were more like witnesses of his fame.

The front is full of dense enemy troops blocking the way, but if the momentum is weak, it will be swallowed up.

Only Zhang Liao and the hundreds of tigers and leopards rode before they knew what they had just experienced.

Guan Yu used his actual actions to tell Zhang Liao what it means to be overwhelming and what it means to be a hero to change the situation.

Brave and fearless, swallowing mountains and rivers.

Only in this battle, Zhang Liao worshiped Guan Yu as a god.

In this battle, Zhang Liao took Guan Yu as a role model.

The power of example is equally strong, a few years later in the White Wolf Mountain, more than ten years later in the Hefei War, Zhang Liao turned this battle experience into his own use, emulating Guan Yu to fight for his own fame.

During Cao Cao's relief of the siege of Baima, Yuan Shao in the north was not idle, and at the same time sent many troops to cross the Yellow River.

Cao Hong and Yu Ban could not be completely stopped, so the Hebei soldiers landed on the south bank one after another to assemble, and built sand piles along the Yellow River to defend themselves.

The Yanjin defense line could no longer be held at this time, so Cao Hong moved dozens of miles to the south.

Cao Cao returned to Yanjin from the victory of Baima, and set up a village in the middle of Yanjin Xinying and Baima in the south, and planned Yanjin and Baima in the middle.

Ladies and gentlemen may think

Asked, Yu Ban was originally able to defend Yanjin with 2,000 people, why couldn't Cao Zaicao hold it after reinforcements? In fact, it has a lot to do with war preparation and overall planning.

Yuan Shao, like Cao Cao, used the support of local heroes to unite all the forces that could be united, and gradually defeated Gongsun Zan to unify Hebei.

As a qualified politician, Yuan Shao needs to balance the relationship between his supporters, and the biggest difficulty Yuan Shao faces due to mutual interests between the Hebei factions.

Yuan Shao's eight strategists, Fu Zhu, Tian Feng, and Shen Pei are the representatives of the Hebei Shi clan, Xin Ping, Guo Tu, and Xun Chen are the representatives of the Henan Shi clan, and Feng Ji and Xu Yu are from Jingzhou, Nanyang, and they are also classified into the Henan faction.

On the surface, Henan and Hebei factions are fighting, but the actual situation is more complicated, Yuan Shao was born in Runan County and belongs to Henan, and he was closer to the Henan scholars in his heart, but he started in Jizhou, so he had to reuse the Hebei scholars.

Jizhou Haoqiang contributed money, grain and troops to help Yuan Shao unify the Hebei prefectures, but when sharing the fruits of victory, there were internal contradictions due to uneven distribution of interests.

Therefore, before destroying Gongsun Zan and plotting to attack Cao Cao, Fu Zhu and Tian Feng openly opposed it, but the trial of the Hebei Shi clan strongly supported it.

Fu Zhu was the head of the Hebei strategists, and in addition to providing Yuan Shao with money and food, he also controlled the troops and military power.

His opposition was not only rhetoric, but also the promotion of negative remarks to snub the morale of the army, and the covert use of such means as raising food and sending troops to make stumbling blocks.

On the surface, he claims to be loyal and outspoken, but in private, he is seeking personal gain for the powerful forces.

In the past, Gongsun Zan was able to get land and population, and the Hebei Shi clan contributed the most money and efforts, and now Cao Cao also contributed money and efforts, but the Henan Shi clan had the greatest benefit, so Fu Zhi and others did everything possible to obstruct it.

Frustrated's behavior was a public contradiction, but he relied on the forces behind him and the military power in his hands, and knew that Yuan Shao would not dare to do anything to him.

Yuan Shao also knew the intention of frustration, although he was angry but helpless, he actually hoped to counterbalance the strength of frustration and others by attacking the Central Plains and supporting Juan Pei, Guo Tu and others.

At this time, Hebei is like a big ship, and the sailors who are rocking the oars have their own thoughts, and it takes a long time to fully implement the order, but Cao Cao's boat is small and easy to turn around.

Cao Cao represents the clan military generals group, Xun Yu represents the Yingchuan civil official group, as long as the two reach an agreement, Cao Jun can work together inside and outside, which is Cao Cao's only advantage now.

Although Yuan Shao was surprised by Yan Liang, he was like a drop in the bucket for the huge Hebei, and had little impact on the entire battle situation, but it was different for Cao Cao, who was slightly weaker, and he used a weak brigade against a strong enemy, and he couldn't make a mistake.

After Guan Yu beheaded Yan Liang and made meritorious contributions, he revealed that he wanted to leave Cao Ying.

Cao Cao couldn't refuse for the sake of promise and personality, but at this time, letting Guan Yu leave was equivalent to giving it to the opponent, how to fight the decisive battle between himself and Yuan Shao?

Cao Cao was worried that Guan Yu would reproduce the courage of the white horse, and even thought that after letting Guan Yu go, he could still command the battle, so he could only use delaying after thinking about it.

With the merit of the white horse, Guan Yu asked for an official and a knight, and sent back to Xu Du to meet the Son of Heaven, and was rewarded and entitled.

Guan Yu also became the second title of the force in the Han Dynasty after Liu Bei, the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion.
