Chapter 139: Divine Might, Guan Yu, Wisdom Still Requires Martial Arts
Guan Yu rescued first, and died first to protect Guan Yu.
Looking at the first dead soldier who blocked the arrow for himself, Guan Yu's tiger eyes were congested.
But Guan Yu was not dominated by anger, and joined forces with Koji Yi and charged again, and the cavalry arranged by Guan Yu on the periphery was also shooting arrows in a roundabout way to cover.
Seeing that the war was unfavorable, the departing Danyang soldiers suddenly turned back.
Cao Bao can ignore Lu Yi, but he can't ignore Guan Yu, which will affect the righteousness of the alliance between Tao Qian and Liu Bei.
In the distance, if Liu Bei learned that the Danyang soldiers did not care about Guan Yu's life or death on the battlefield, they would definitely ask Xuzhou for their guilt, and Cao Bao would be pushed out to confess.
Closer to home, Guan Yu is Lu Zhi's protΓ©gΓ©, Cao Bao did not save Guan Yu when he fled in battle, and it is estimated that he can be beheaded by Lu Zhi on the spot.
After weighing the pros and cons, Cao Bao called for Danyang soldiers to return to the rescue.
Danyang soldiers are brave and good soldiers, just because they can't show their ability to follow Cao Bao.
This entry into the battlefield has gradually improved the originally unfavorable situation.
"Guan Xiang, Captain Koji, retreat quickly!"
Cao Bao brandished his spear and shouted to Guan Yu and Koji.
Under the cover of the Danyang soldiers, Guan Yu and Ko Yi led the crowd to kill the encirclement of the Xiliang soldiers and headed towards Chenggao Pass.
Seeing this, Huangfu Song was not impatient, and ordered Li Dao to pursue: "General Li, quickly entangle and join General Guo!" β
Li Dao saw that Huangfu Song had even shot his own people, and originally wanted to regain military power.
Seeing that Guan Yu and the others were defeated, he couldn't hold back the urge to grab the credit, so he didn't hesitate to lead the crowd to pursue.
"After defeating Lu Zhi, then tie up the old puppet of Huangfu and take it to Chang'an and hand it over to the Taishi for disposal." Li Wei thought hatefully.
Halfway through the chase, another cavalry suddenly appeared in the valley, it was Lu Zhi who was divided into two places with Guan Yu.
Lu Zhi saw that Guan Yu and the others were embarrassed, so he didn't say much, just covered the soldiers and fought and retreated.
And at this moment, under the Chenggao Pass, Guo Yan was shouting wildly: "Listen to the rebellion on the pass, you have already fallen into the plan of the imperial history!" Lu Zhi's old puppet is about to die and has no place to be buried, so why don't you surrender quickly? β
Tian Yu clenched his fists.
If the insulter dies, how can he surrender?
"Shoot the arrows!"
Without superfluous words, Tian Yu ordered to close the arrow and directly express his attitude.
"Dog thief, I will kill you!"
Guo Yan saw that the deception could not be achieved, and he hated the guards on the pass.
But Guo Yan did not tackle the problem, but put up a position under the pass, as if he was waiting for something.
"Although the old puppet of Huangfu is disgusting, this soldier is skillful and incomparable, and he has long guessed that the old puppet of Lu Zhi will stay and defend Chenggao Pass."
"No wonder the Taishi is quite jealous of the old puppet of the emperor, and he has always wanted to find a reason to kill him."
"Hmph, although the old man is good at using soldiers, he is far inferior to Taishi in terms of power and scheming."
"When Lu Zhi is broken, it will be the time when you die."
Guo Yan sneered, and he had already regarded Huangfu Song as a dead man in his heart.
Not much.
Lu Zhi took Guan Yu and Cao Bao all the way to Chenggao Pass, looking at Guo Yanjun under Chenggao Pass, Lu Zhi couldn't help but change his face: "Huangfu Yizhen is really going to put the old man to death in a battle." β
"The old man could expect that this army of soldiers and horses was here to grab the pass, but he miscalculated the true purpose of the emperor."
According to Lu Zhi's calculations, Guo Yanjun would come to seize the pass, so Lu Zhi left Tian Yu to defend Chenggao Pass.
When Lu Zhi returns, he can kill Guo Yan's army from the rear.
But now Guo Yan not only did not rush the pass, but put down the position under the pass.
This tactic of encircling and sending reinforcements made Lu Zhi instantly understand Huangfu Song's intentions.
Step by step, one is Koji Yi, and the other is Lu Zhi.
"Master Lu, don't worry!"
"Wisdom still needs bravery, I'll break the formation."
Guan Yu dragged the Glaive Sword and led the cavalry straight to Guo Yan's army formation.
Under the deployment of Lu Zhi, Lu Yi formed an offensive and defensive formation with the Danyang soldiers to guard against the pursuers in the rear.
Guo Yan saw Guan Yu leading the cavalry to rush over, and he was quite disdainful in his heart: "How ridiculous it is to show off your riding skills in front of the Xiliang soldiers." β
But before Guo Yan could laugh out loud, the cavalry team under his command to meet Guan Yu was defeated one after another.
Guan Yu slashed a few Xiliang horses in a row, and rushed straight to Guo Yan's handsome banner like a killing god.
"Block it for Ben!" Guo Yan's face changed greatly, and the back of a brave general subconsciously appeared in his mind: "Under the command of Lu Zhi's old horseman, there are warriors as brave as Lu Bu. β
When Dong Zhuo first entered Beijing, Lu Bu was still under Ding Yuan's command.
Guo Yan witnessed the bravery of Lu Bu and the iron cavalry of the state to charge the Xiliang army.
Subconsciously, Guo Yan was afraid and didn't dare to fight Guan Yu!
Guan Yu seized the opportunity and cut down Guo Yan's general flag with one sword.
As soon as the flag fell, the Xiliang army thought that Guo Yan was dead, and immediately made a mess.
Lu Zhi in the rear seized the opportunity and quickly advanced towards the pass.
When Li Dao led his troops to catch up, Tian Yu had already switched over to Lu Zhi and other generals to enter the customs.
"Guo Yan, you are such a waste, this can make Lu Zhi run back to Chenggao Pass." Li Dao was quite dissatisfied.
This was about to trap Lu Zhi and kill him, but he failed because of Guo Yan.
Guo Yan's face was red, but he still tried his best to argue: "Li Dao, don't talk cool here, didn't you fail to defeat Lu Zhiqian's army in the middle of the ambush?" β
"If there is only Lu Zhi's cavalry, how can he break through my military formation?"
While the two were arguing, Huangfu Song had already arrived from the rear.
Seeing that Lu Zhi returned to Chenggao Pass safely, Huangfu Song deliberately mocked: "With such a plan, Lu Zhi can escape." The generals under Lu Zhi are even more undamaged. β
"Two generals, you can't get the credit for giving you for nothing."
Li Dao and Guo Yan secretly clenched their fists.
I wanted to cut Huang Fu Song directly, but I didn't kill Huang Fu Song in the name.
After all, if he killed Huangfu Song for no reason, Li Dao and Guo Yan will inevitably be taken out by Dong Zhuo to blame for the crime, so as to block the rumors inside and outside the court.
The two of them are not stupid!
Didn't you see that Huaxiong had Dong Zhuo's secret order, did he endure it all the way?
Thinking of Hua Xiong, Li Dao and Guo Yan looked left and right, and couldn't help but be suspicious.
"Huangfu Yushi, what about Captain Huadu?" Li Dao asked.
Huangfu Song said lightly: "When the fraud was defeated, Hua Duwei was accidentally beheaded by that Guan Yunchang. β
Li Dao and Guo Yan's faces changed greatly.
Hua Xiong is dead?
Although Hua Xiong did not have a high military rank in the Xiliang Army, he was Dong Zhuo's cronies.
Originally, he was just Dong Zhuo's personal guard, but he was promoted to lieutenant by Dong Zhuo because of his courage and good fighting.
This time, he was ordered to take the opportunity to get rid of Huangfu Song!
As a result, Hua Xiong died when he was defeated?
"Huadu Lieutenant is brave, how could he be killed by Guan Yunchang?" Guo Yan didn't believe it.
Huangfu Song looked at Guo Yan coldly: "General Guo's general flag was cut down by that Guan Yu, and General Li jumped off his horse to escape in three rounds, can Captain Hua Du be able to resist Guan Yunchang?" β
Guo Yan was speechless.
Seeing that Li Dao and Guo Yan no longer spoke, Huangfu Song lightly ordered: "Let the soldiers rest for a while, and set up camp here." β
And on the shut-off.
Lu Yi and Cao Bao came to ask for sin.
If it weren't for the two chasing and routing the soldiers and falling into an ambush, they would not have won first and then lost.
"It's the old man who didn't expect the emperor's righteous plan in advance, and it's not your crime." Lu Zhi helped up Koji Yi and Cao Bao.
In the face of an opponent like Huang Fu Song, even Lu Zhi could not fully anticipate Huang Fu Song's strategic intentions.
In particular, Huangfu Song's tactics this time were more ruthless and ruthless than before.
Dong Zhuo's soldiers, Huangfu Song is very easy to use.
Regardless of whether Dong Zhuo's soldiers win or lose, it is a win for Huangfu Song!
Not only to pit the enemy, but also to pit their own people, who can predict such a tactic?
"Lu Division, our army is newly defeated, and we can only hold Chenggao Pass for the time being." Guan Yu was tired, obviously even Guan Yu couldn't bear the rush of these several formations.
Lu Zhi looked at Huangfu Song, who was resting outside the gate, his eyes were blazing: "With Huangfu Yizhen, it is not easy to break Li Dao Guo Yan." You have to find a way to transfer Huangfu Song back to Chang'an City. β
Guan Yu realized: "Master Lu wants to use a counter-strategy? β
Lu Zhi nodded: "Huangfu Yizhen uses soldiers, and he focuses more on the battlefield; But the old man uses soldiers and focuses more on outside the battlefield. β
"In the past, King Yanzhao sent Le Yi to besiege Jimo, and Qi sent Tian Dan to spread rumors that it was so easy for Le Yi to occupy Linzi City, but now he can't take Jimo for a long time, because he wants to wait for the price and threaten King Yan Zhao to make him the king of Qi."
"Although King Yan Zhao believed in Le Yi, King Yan Hui, who succeeded to the throne, thought that Le Yi had the heart to be the king, so he removed Le Yi from his position after succeeding to the throne and replaced him as the commander."
"So Tian Dan broke the enemy with a fire ox formation, and finally recovered the territory of Qi."
"Although the old man doesn't know why Huangfu Yizhen will help Dong Zhuo, with Dong Zhuo's suspicious personality, if he sees Huangfu Yizhen's reputation getting higher and higher, he will definitely be jealous."
"Once Dong Zhuo becomes suspicious, Huangfu Yizhen will definitely be transferred back."
Immediately.
Lu Zhi summoned more than a dozen clever horsemen, taught them how to speak, and then took advantage of the darkness to go out of the customs and go to Chang'an.
The battle at Chenggao Pass was unfavorable, but Sun Jian of Taigu Pass was fierce.
Although Lu Bu is brave, most of his subordinates are cavalry, which is not conducive to guarding the pass.
Hu Zhen transferred most of the elite foot soldiers who originally came to Taigu Pass, so that Lu Bu's defense in Taigu Pass was very difficult.
"Dutinghou, Taigu Pass is almost unguardable!" Song Xian was covered in blood, and his breath was a little unstable.
Lu Bu was clean, and there was no blood on his body: "Since you can't hold it, then retreat to Yique Pass to join Xu Rong." β
"Insufficient troops, not a crime of war, not to mention that Ben Hou has been here for five days, and his father-in-law will not blame."
Lu Bu did not drag the mud and water, and took advantage of Sun Jian's temporary truce to directly withdraw all the soldiers and horses in Taigu Pass.
When Sun Jianjun tackled the key problems again, only the broken banner was left on the close.
"Dong Thief's righteous son, that's just the case!" Sun Jian ascended to Taigu Pass, and his words were quite disdainful: "Gong Fu, quickly go to Luyang to pass the battle report to Yuan Gong, and then transfer some soldiers, horses, grain and grass to Taigu Pass." Hu Zhen and Lu Bu were defeated and retreated one after another, and Dong Zhuo was very likely to personally drive troops to fight. β
"Demou, you quickly send someone to find out the battle situation in Chenggao Pass!"
Sun Jian gave the order in an orderly manner, and it was inevitable to attack Luoyang.
The battle report reached Luyang, and Yuan Shu was so excited that he got up to shoot the case: "Wentai is brave, and now that the Taigu Pass has been broken, Dong Thief is not restless!" β
If you don't break the Taigu Pass, you won't be able to enter Luoyang.
Breaking the Taigu Pass, he can not only grab the old capital of Luoyang and let everyone in the world know his name of Yuan Shu, but also move westward and complete the great cause of Dong Shu.
Just when Yuan Shu was about to send someone to allocate grain and grass to Sun Jian, Zhang Xun, Yuan Shu's general, was not happy.
Before Sun Jian came, Zhang Xun was the first general under Yuan Shu.
But after Sun Jian came, Zhang Xun's prestige was suppressed by Sun Jian.
Especially in the battle of the Yangren, Sun Jian defeated Hu Zhen and won Guangcheng Pass, which made Sun Jian more prestigious in Yuan Shu's army, and now he has broken the Taigu Pass, which is even more credited.
The more brave and good Sun Jian is, the more incompetent Zhang Xun appears.
The strong jealousy made Zhang Xun feel evil: "If Sun Jian occupies Luoyang, it will be difficult for the Ming Duke to be restrained in Luyang, if he is allowed to develop, wouldn't he get rid of a wolf and add another tiger?" β
"Sun Jian won the Taigu Pass, so he should invite the Duke of Ming to go in person, and then the Duke of Ming will lead the army to break Luoyang, so that everyone in the world can know the reputation of the Duke of Ming."
"But Sun Jian only urged money, food, soldiers and horses, and refused to let the lord go, and the wolf's ambition has already been revealed."
"If Sun Jian gets the credit for breaking Luoyang, don't people in the world think that Sun Jian is the hero of Dong?"
Zhang Xun's provocation suddenly made Yuan Shu suspicious of Sun Jian.
To ask for Dong's great credit, Yuan Shu must not be given to Sun Jian!
Just when Yuan Shu hesitated, a burst of laughter sounded: "Yuan Gong must not listen to slander, if he cuts off the grain and grass of Sun Thorn History, he will cut off his arm!" β
Zhang Xun was furious when he heard this: "Hua Zicheng, I didn't want to worry about you when I saw your brother's face, but you dare to frame me in front of Ming Gong, do you really think that I don't dare to kill you?" β
Yuan Shuxun went to seek prestige, but he was the brother of the famous Hua Xin, who was ordered by Liu Bei to envoy to Chang'an.
Hua Ji was ordered to go to Chang'an, but he was never able to reach it because of the obstruction of the road.
I also heard that my brother Hua Xin was detained by Yuan Shu, and Hua Xin turned around and went to Nanyang.
On the way, Hua Ji met the envoy sent by Liu Bei to Nanyang to form an alliance, and together with the envoy, Hua Ji followed the envoy to lobby Yuan Shu.
As soon as Yuan Shu heard that Liu Bei was going to form an alliance with him and agreed that Qingxu Yu would form an offensive and defensive alliance, he was immediately happy.
Originally, he was afraid of Yuan Shao's alliance with all parties and ruined himself to discuss Dong's affairs, but now that Liu Bei and Tao Qian are helping, Yuan Shu will naturally not refuse.
Seeing that Hua Ji was going to send an envoy to Chang'an, Yuan Shu took advantage of the situation to leave Hua Ji in Luyang and asked Hua Ji to wait for the opportunity.
Hua Ji also knew that he couldn't enter Chang'an now, so he stayed in Luyang.
The only regret is that Hua Xin did not meet Hua Xin.
Before Hua Ji met Yuan Shu, Hua Xin left with Taifu Ma Riyan.
Hua Ji laughed and ignored Zhang Xun's intimidation: "General Zhang framed Dong Gongchen and wanted to destroy Yuan Gong to seek Dong Daye, and he still wanted to kill me here?" β
"Could it be that General Zhang has colluded with Dong Thief?"
Zhang Xun held down the hilt of his sword and shouted, "Hua Zicheng, are you provoking me?" β
Yuan Shu's eyes instantly became gloomy, and he shouted, "Zhang Xun, step aside!" β
Although Zhang Xun was not angry, he did not dare to disobey Yuan Shu's order, and just stared at Hua Shu fiercely.
Yuan Shu looked at Hua Ji and said lightly: "Zicheng, you are the envoy appointed by Liu Tingshi, if you have any ideas, you can say it directly." β
Hua Ji saluted: "Sun Tingshi sent troops to Luoyang, the upper is to crusade against the traitors for the country, and the lower is the personal vendetta of Yuan Gongbao's family, if Sun Tingshi is cut off from the supply of military food because of slander." What is the difference between Wu Qi shedding tears in the West River and Le Yi's failure? β
