Cao Hong was stunned, his eyes suspicious: "You don't kill me?" ”

Guan Yu half-narrowed Danfeng's eyes, and his words made Cao Hong not know whether it was true or false: "Guan can capture you, can release you, and naturally can arrest you again." I don't want to send my troops to Cao Ying again. ”

Cao Hong took the letter and glanced at the generals in Guan Yu's tent, and saw that the generals' eyes were full of contempt.

It seems to be saying: I can catch you, I can release you, and I can naturally capture you again.

"Guan Yu, you will regret it!" Cao Hong hatefully shook off a cruel word.

After Cao Hong left, Lu Su expressed his doubts: "General Guan, Cao Hong is a fierce general under Cao Cao, why do you want to put him back?" ”

"If you don't want to have a mortal enmity with Cao Cao, you can let him redeem him with gold and silver after Cao Cao retreats, which is better than just putting it back."

Guan Yu stroked his beautiful hair carefully, and his eyes were as deep as a pool: "Zijing, if you are Cao Cao." The pioneer battalion was robbed, and the pioneer was captured alive and then released. ”

"The letter persuading him to withdraw from the army, and the words are rebellious, will you withdraw from the army?"

Lu Su was silent.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Su's tone became a little more solemn: "The soldiers can retreat, but at least they have to win back, otherwise how can they convince the public?" ”

Guan Yu laughed: "Lian Zijing, you think like this, how can Cao Cao and his fierce generals meet the letter and retire?" ”

"Immediately send someone to send a letter to Tao Qian, saying that our army has won a great victory, and let Tao Qian send someone to carry Cao's army's baggage and soldiers."

"If Tao Qian asks, he will say that this battle is Tao Qian personally going out of the city to rob the camp, and Tancheng needs a victory to stabilize the army's morale."

Lu Su was stunned, and immediately understood Guan Yu's intentions.

Inside Tancheng.

Knowing that Guan Yu defeated Cao Hong under the city and asked Tao Qian to receive Cao Hong's camp baggage, Tao Qian felt quite uncomfortable.

He lost consecutive battles, and Guan Yu won a battle as soon as he came.

This stark contrast shows that Tao Qian is extremely incompetent.

"The baggage in the camp, don't you want your general?" Tao Qian looked suspiciously at the soldiers sent by Guan Yu to deliver the message.

The soldier was obviously instructed in advance, and said, "My general said that the envoy needs this great victory even more. can be falsely claimed to be the envoy personally led the general to rob the camp to calm the hearts of the soldiers and civilians of Tancheng. ”

Tao Qian was slightly stunned, and quickly reacted.

I was also a lot happier.

"Xuande's righteous brother, really elegant."

"Cao Bao, you quickly lead the troops out of the city and carry the baggage and pawns in Cao Hong's camp."

Cao Bao also said happily: "This general is still quite good at doing things, and the soldiers and civilians in the city will definitely recover their morale when they learn of the great victory of Ming Gong." ”

Tao Qian's mood became happier.

Although this victory was won by Guan Yu, as long as the soldiers and civilians in the city knew that Tao Qian personally led the general to rob the camp, then the soldiers and people in the city would trust Tao Qian more.

After a series of defeats, there was suddenly one more big victory.

The restless soldiers and civilians in the city will naturally feel a lot more at ease.

So Tao Qian sent Cao Bao out of the city to carry the baggage and soldiers, and when he met people, he said that it was last night that "Tao Envoy Jun personally led Cao Bao, Cao Hong and other generals to rob the camp, beheaded the generals to capture the flag, and defeated Cao Hong, the general of Cao Ying".

Guan Yu took the opportunity to retreat and set up camp thirty miles away.

And on the other side.

Cao Hong fled back to the main village in embarrassment.

Knowing that Cao Hong was robbed by Guan Yu, almost the entire army was wiped out, and even Cao Hong himself was captured alive, Cao Cao was furious: "The general has warned you a long time ago that you need to beware of the soldiers and horses of Qingzhou, how could you be so careless?" ”

Cao Hong said aggrievedly: "The last general doesn't know!" That Guan Yu suddenly appeared outside Tancheng and robbed the camp at night. ”

Cao Cao was so angry that he wanted to laugh: "You don't even know when Guan Yu appeared outside Tancheng, so careless, how can you convince the public if you don't behead." Come on, drag Cao Hong down and behead him! ”

Seeing that Cao Cao was really angry, Cao Ren, Xiahou Xuan, and Xiahou Yuan came out to intercede.

Xi Zhicai also said: "Ming Gong." That Guan Yu has been in battle for a long time, and has accompanied Lu Zhi to conquer Luoyang, and has won many victories. When Chen Liu fought against Yuan Shu, he also deceived Yuan Shu and attacked Fengqiu City. ”

"Guan Yu is unprepared, and General Cao Hong is unjustly defeated."

"The top priority is to find out the purpose of Guan Yu's southward journey first."

Cao Cao was not ready to really kill Cao Hong, but seeing that the generals were pleading, Xi Zhicai also gave a reason not to kill Cao Hong, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and scolded:

"Look at the public generals, and spare your life."

"If you make a mistake again, you will not be spared."

Cao Hong kowtowed again and again to thank him, and then took out Guan Yu's letter: "Guan Yu said that it was because we destroyed Tuntian and robbed the money and grain of the people of Tuntian, so we robbed the camp. ”

Hearing this reason, Cao Cao's eyes gradually became gloomy: "This Tao Qian's Tuntian and Tuntian people, what is the matter with Guan Qingzhou?" ”

Cao Hong's tone was indignant: "Guan Yu's subordinate general said that everyone in the world knows that Liu Bei entrusted Tao Tingshi to settle 100,000 hungry people in the East China Sea, and we are destroying Tuntian and plundering the people of Tuntian, which is to make enemies of Qingzhou." ”

"Guan Yu asked the last general to bring the letter to the Ming Gong, and also said that if the spring cultivators of the Tuntian people in the East China Sea are bad, Qingzhou will fight with them endlessly."

Xiahoudun was furious: "What a big breath! Do you really think I'm afraid of him? Ming Gong, the last general is invited to fight! ”

Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan were also angry.

Wouldn't it be a pure humiliation to rob the camp and rob the camp with such an arrogant reason?

Cao Cao had a cold face and spread out the letter of the feather.

Seeing the content of the letter, Cao Cao couldn't help his anger.

Smack.

Cao Cao shook the letter and took the case: "Guan Yu Pifu, dare to be so arrogant!" The generals listened to the order and immediately marched into Tancheng, and did not break Tancheng and did not withdraw their troops. With only 2,000 soldiers and horses, how to resist this general! ”

"Bright and slow!" Xi Zhicai hurriedly stopped Cao Cao and picked up Guan Yu's letter.

Scanning the content of the letter, Xi Zhicai was also a little unable to hold back his anger.

But soon, Xi Zhicai broke out in a cold sweat again, and persuaded again: "Ming Gong, Guan Yu has the intention of agitating the general, don't be fooled easily!" Guan Yu was able to hide from General Cao Hong's spies, and it is very likely that he would have hidden troops in the East China Sea a long time ago. ”

"The Tibetan troops in the East China Sea, but they sat back and watched Tao Qian lose successive battles, and did not appear until Cao Hong's general troops entered Tancheng, which must have been premeditated."

"Now he is agitating the generals with letters, this is to lure Ming Gong to Tancheng."

"What if Qingzhou is in the East China Sea, and there are more than 2,000 soldiers and horses?"

"The praying mantis catches cicadas, the yellow finch is behind, if Liu Bei's purpose is also Xuzhou, Ming Gongtu will make Liu Bei's wedding dress."

Cao Cao was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat, and his anger was swept away: "Zhicai is reasonable. I waited until I reached Tancheng before Guan Yu appeared. ”

"Qingzhou obviously has other intentions."

There was a pause.

Cao Cao regained his composure: "The army is advancing to Tancheng normally, release all the scouts, don't fall for Guan Yu's tricks again!" ”

Two days later, Cao Cao's army arrived in Tancheng.

But the information found by the scouts made Cao Cao jealous.

"Guan Yu retreated and camped thirty miles away, and Tancheng declared with great fanfare that Tao Qian personally went out of the city."

"It is worthy of being a high-ranking disciple of Lu Zigan, Tao Qian's morale was sluggish after successive defeats, so he recovered."

"Tancheng City is high and deep, and our army wants to defend against Guan Yu, so we will definitely not be able to attack the city with all our might, and the morale will be lost, and Tancheng will not be able to take it."

"Tao Qian can also take the opportunity to tell the soldiers and civilians in the city that Qingzhou reinforcements have arrived in the East China Sea, and the morale in the city will be unprecedentedly high."

"What a calculation!"

Cao Cao clenched his fists.

Now Cao Cao is a little difficult to ride a tiger.

Attack Tancheng, the morale in the city is recovering, and Guan Yu is also eyeing it from the side; Don't fight Tancheng, Cao Cao is unwilling.

At this moment, Guan Yu's soldiers and horses appeared in the north and invited Cao Cao to speak.

Cao Cao's eyes became even more gloomy.

Under the escort of Xu Chu, Cao Cao came to the front of the battle, and saw Guan Yu's first arrival in the camp waving flags and neat military appearance, Cao Cao did not dare to be negligent.

I saw Guan Yu riding a red rabbit horse, carrying a knife and riding a horse, and came to the middle of the two formations alone.

"General Cao, don't come unharmed." Guan Yu squinted Danfeng's eyes, and his tone was cold and arrogant.

Cao Cao also rode out of the ranks, but let Xu Chu follow closely.

Although Guan Yu didn't seem to have the intention of fighting, Cao Cao wasn't sure if Guan Yu would take the opportunity to capture him alive in front of the battle.

If this is captured by Guan Yu before the formation, then his Cao Cao's face will be disgraced.

"Farewell to Fengqiu City, General Guan is as heroic as ever, Cao Mou thanked General Guan for his release." Cao Cao looked at Guan Yu's eyes, with jealousy, admiration, and regret.

I am afraid of Guan Yu's martial arts, admire Guan Yu's martial arts, and regret that Guan Yu is not his own general.

Guan Yu's tone did not change much: "General Cao, looking at the old feelings, Guan let Cao Hong leave, and also wrote to persuade General Cao to withdraw from the army. Why are you still coming to Tancheng today? ”

Cao Cao sneered: "Tao Qian forcibly occupied Xiao Pei, but Cao persuaded him with good words but increased his troops to Xiao Pei, and also made sarcastic remarks. If Cao didn't capture Tao Qian, the old horseman, wouldn't it make everyone in the world think that Cao was easy to bully? ”

"On the contrary, it was General Guan's robbery of the camp a few days ago, which made Cao lose face."

Guan Yu said: "General Cao defeated Tao Qian in a row, and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Xuzhou were killed and wounded. Even if there is anger, it should be gone. ”

"There are 100,000 villagers in Qingzhou in Tuntian in the East China Sea, but they suffered military disasters for no reason because of General Cao's soldiers and horses."

"Guan robbed the camp, just to protect the villagers of Qingzhou, and had no other intentions."

Cao Cao laughed: "General Guan's reason is not convincing. ”

Guan Yu squinted Danfeng's eyes: "General Cao, since you said that Tao Qian forcibly occupied Xiaopeicheng, how about Guan returning Xiaopeicheng to Yuzhou for General Cao?" ”

Cao Cao's smile stopped abruptly: "General Guan, what do you mean by this?" ”

Guan Yu stroked his beautiful hair: "Qingzhou and Xuzhou have an alliance, Xuzhou suffered a military disaster, how can Qingzhou not be saved?" ”

"The dispute between Yuxu and Xu lies in the ownership of Xiaopei and other cities."

"General Cao is unwilling to give up Xiaopeicheng, and Tao Qian is not willing to give up Xiaopeicheng."

"In order to avoid hurting the harmony, this Xiaopei City will be taken over by Qingzhou for the time being."

"When General Cao retires, Qingzhou will give up Xiaopeicheng, so that General Cao will benefit, and Tao Qian will no longer worry about Xiaopeicheng."

"Does General Cao think so?"

Cao Cao was taken aback: "Have you entered Xiaopei City?" ”

Guan Yu said frankly: "Don't worry. My brother Yide, I should have just received the order at this time. It still takes some time to go to Nancheng to Xiaopei. ”

"General Cao has thought clearly, do you really want to fight Qingzhou endlessly?"

Deter!

It's an undisguised deterrent.

As Guan Yu said to Lu Su, when marching and fighting, only the dominant side is qualified to analyze the advantages and disadvantages with the weaker side.

If you want Cao Cao to retreat, you have to put Cao Cao at a disadvantage.

"Qingzhou's southward move this time, could it be Zheng Xian's strategy again?" Cao Cao condensed his voice.

Guan Yu said slowly: "General Cao, forgive Guan for being blunt." If it was Mr. Xianmou's plan this time, General Cao would not have had the opportunity to talk to Guan like this. ”

"If Mr. Xianmou makes a move, General Cao will have to flee alone, just like Yuan Shu under Fengqiu City."

"Don't be angry, Mr. Xianmou actually shot twice."

"For the first time, wipe out the yellow scarves and help Guan's brother gain a foothold in Qingzhou."

"The second time, defeat Yuan Shu and let Yuan Shu, who betrayed the alliance, retreat to Huainan."

"General Cao, you should feel lucky!"

Cao Cao subconsciously clenched the hilt of his sword.

And Xu Chu beside him couldn't help it: "Ming Gong, let Chu go to fight Guan Yu!" ”

Cao Cao stopped Xu Chu.

Although Guan Yu's words are arrogant and infuriating, their truth is true.

Just one Guan Yu has already made Cao Cao's plan in Xuzhou fail, and if he continues to provoke Qingzhou, it will really be endless.

"Chen Guo's Liu Pet is still here, if he completely turns his face with Qingzhou at this time, Liu Pet will definitely send troops to cut off my way back."

"Liu Xuande sat back and watched Tao Qian's defeat in Pengchengguo, and deliberately let our army go deep into Tancheng, which was to deceive me into not returning to Yuzhou in time."

"If I don't retreat, I will have no place to die."

"Chen Wang Liu Pet, it has to be solved as soon as possible."

Cao Cao took a deep breath.

Now is not the time for Cao Cao to fight for a moment.

It is not easy to expel Yuan Shu from Yuzhou, if Cao Cao insists on attacking Tancheng at this time, not only can he not advance or retreat, but Yuzhou is also likely to fall into the hands of Liu Bei.

Cao Cao didn't want to lose Yuzhou, so he cheapened Liu Bei.

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed three times: "General Guan, Cao admires Liu Qingzhou a lot, how can he fight with Qingzhou?" It was Cao's failure to restrain military discipline that made the villagers of Qingzhou suffer. ”

"General Lao Guan apologized to the villagers of Qingzhou on behalf of Cao."

"If Liu Qingzhou is interested in the future, he can come to Xu County to drink together, and Cao will definitely sweep the couch to greet him!"

Seeing that Cao Cao was soft, Guan Yu didn't say much: "General Cao is gracious, Guan will definitely return to his brother, please!" ”

Cao Cao turned around, and his face instantly became gloomy.

"What a Guan Yu!"

"Liu Xuande has this brother, and he will become a confidant one day."

Although Cao Cao also had clan brothers such as Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan, and Xiahou Xuan, none of them could be as alone as Guan Yu.

In terms of wisdom and bravery, no one such as Cao Ren can compare to Guan Yu!

This made Cao Cao jealous at the same time, but also envious and jealous of Liu Bei.

"Immediately withdraw troops back to Yuzhou!"

As soon as Cao Cao returned to his position, he gave the order to withdraw his troops.

Xiahou was puzzled: "Duke Ming, Tao Qian is frightened, and he will definitely not dare to go out of the city easily; It's better for us to concentrate our forces and break through Guan Yu first! If you fight more and fight less, you don't believe that Guan Yu can stop it! ”

Cao Hong also hated and said: "Ming Gong, Hong is willing to be a pioneer!" The revenge of robbing the camp, the humiliation of capturing alive, Hong will make Guan Yu pay the price! ”

Cao Cao glanced at the generals, shook his head and sighed: "Everyone, bear with today's humiliation for the time being!" Zhang Fei has already garrisoned Nancheng, if he doesn't withdraw his troops, there will be no way back. ”
