Chapter 139: Warm Wine Persuasion
Luling, Gan County.
Luling is located in the south of Yuzhang County, northwest of Huiji County. Since Liu Bei and Liu Qi returned from Jingzhou, the soldiers were divided into three routes. Liu Bei commanded the army into Yishan, and ordered Huo Jun to attack the Lujiang River, and Guan Yu restrained Huang Zhong to ask Sun Ben and Sun Fu brothers.
Guan Yu's headquarters had 3,500 people, and Huang Zhong's account had 2,000 soldiers and horses, totaling 5,500 soldiers and horses; The two brothers, Sun Ben and Sun Fu, were defeated by Liu Bei twice, but they also had more than 5,000 soldiers under their accounts.
When Sun Ben and Sun Fu defended themselves according to Gan County, they did not fight with Guan Yu. Guan Yu only relied on the soldiers and horses in his hands, and he wanted to defeat Sun Ben and Sun Fu in a short time, but he was helpless.
But the two armies confronted each other for several months, and Guan Yu was not helpless, so he ordered his generals to surrender to the surrounding counties and slowly end the supplies of Sun Ben and Sun Fu.
This winter, Guan Yu's tactics have worked, and the Sun brothers' supplies are really in short supply, and there are many escapees.
In the tent of the Chinese military camp, Guan Yu stroked his long beard and browsed the battle report sent by Liu Bei.
"Huh!"
Looking at Huo Jun's victory, Guan Yu was surprised and said, "Huo Zhongmiao was able to defeat Xiahou Yuan and Sun Yu in a backwater formation, which is quite exciting!" ”
Saying that, Guan Yu chuckled and said: "Xiahou Yuan is just reckless, the rewards and punishments are unknown, Sun Yu is good at writing and weak martial arts, but it is not difficult to defeat him." I never thought that they would be defeated by the hands of the backwater array, and they left a few jokes for future generations. ”
Between the words, you can hear Guan Yu's sense of surprise, but it is only surprise. In his eyes, he was more dismissive of Xiahou Yuan, Yu Ban, and Sun Yu, he had an understanding of Xiahou Yuan and Yu Ban, and knew what the real level of the two was.
Huang Zhong sat on the throne and arched his hand and said: "Guan Junhou, General Huo defeated Sun Cao's coalition army, and Liu Yuzhou defeated Sun Quan's army. The Sun family has withdrawn to Jiangzuo Wu County, the two Sun Ben brothers have no reinforcements, and our army has cut off its military rations and grass, and Gan County will not be able to go down in the future! ”
Guan Yu raised the corners of his mouth, raised the battle report in his hand, and said: "The Sun brothers have been trapped for several months, the grain and grass have been exhausted, this winter is coming, and there is no winter clothes, so they can stay for a long time." The two of them just want to see if Sun Quan can rescue Gan County, and An has the idea of fighting to the death? ”
Huang Zhong hesitated for a moment and asked, "If you follow the opinion of the prince and the marquis, what should you do next?" ”
Sent his brother's war report into the city, copied dozens of letters and shot them into the city, so as to disrupt the hearts of the Sun army. ”
Guan Yu stroked his beard, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "Set up a banquet outside Ganxian County, invite Sun Ben to the banquet alone, talk about the affairs of his family and children, and talk about the old feelings." ”
When the Jingzhou army invaded Nanchang, Sun Ben didn't have time to bring his family. As a result, the family members fell into the hands of the Jingzhou army, and the Jingzhou army met his family members with courtesy.
"No!"
……
In late autumn, the weather was getting colder, and Guan Yu was set up as a tent 300 steps away from Ganxian County, and the left and right sergeants stayed away. Sitting alone in the tent, boiling warm wine, waiting for Sun Ben.
In the middle of the ring, Sun Ben rode a war horse, escorted by his entourage, and went out of the city gate. There were no ambushes around the tent, and the sergeant was far away from the tent, only Guan Yu alone, and his heart was slightly relieved. But in the face of Guan Yu's bravery, Sun Ben was a little afraid, more than ten steps away from the curtain, and he didn't dare to enter the account alone.
Guan Yu sat in the tent and said with a smile: "When my brother served Yuan Shu in the past, you and I had seen it, so why are we afraid of Yu now." Yu just wanted to talk to Brother Boyang. ”
After Sun Jian's death, Sun Ben took Sun Jian's troops and horses to serve Yuan Shu, and Guan Yu had a relationship with Sun Ben at that time, and they also fought against each other.
Sun Ben hesitated a little, thinking of Guan Yu's reputation, and finally got off the horse and sat opposite Guan Yu.
Guan Yu lifted the wine jug, poured a glass of wine for Sun Ben, and said: "The weather is cold, it is inconvenient for Boyang to stick to the city, firewood is rare, it is inconvenient to take fire, and drink this wine to warm your body." ”
Sun Ben's face changed slightly but quickly returned to normal, and said, "There is no shortage of firewood in my city, why did Yun Chang say this? ”
Guan Yu poured himself a glass of wine and said with a smile: "There are dozens of sergeants and soldiers of the Boyang Army in my military camp, and your army is short of food and clothing, how can you not know it." ”
Sun Ben was silent for a while, and asked in a muffled voice: "Since Yun Chang knows the truth of our army, why did he trick someone into going out of the city to a banquet in the name of his family. ”
Guan Yu drank the warm wine in the cup, and said in a gentle tone: "I am the same as Boyang, I have two sons and one daughter, the eldest son Guan Ping, and the second son Guan Xing. When Yu set out on the expedition, he had met his sister-in-law and nephew. The nephew is quite outstanding, and he has the demeanor of Brother Boyang. ”
Sun Ben sighed and said, "The eldest daughter married Xuchang far away, and the eldest son was sick, and Yun Chang took care of her. ”
Guan Yu stroked his beard and said: "Boyang should have received the news of the battle report, this year Sun Quan led troops to attack Peng Zebuke, defeated Huang Zu, and settled in Chaisang, wanting to echo the north and south of Boyang." Danyang rebelled, Sun He and Sun Yi died, and Sun Quan returned to Danyang. ”
"Since the beginning of summer and autumn, the battle situation has changed suddenly, our army's general Huo Zhongmiao attacked Xiahou Yuan and Sun Yu in Anhui, won the Lujiang counties, and entered the siege of Beijing; Liu Yuzhou attacked Sun Quan in Yishan, won a big victory, and Sun Quan withdrew to Wu County. Judging from the current military situation, our army attacked from the north and south and besieged Sun Quan in Wu County. Sun Quan's defeat was only a matter of time. ”
"At present, the general has no foreign aid, and there is a lack of food and grass, so why should he be trapped in the dead place? When Brother Boyang led his troops to resist our army for a year and a half, he had been holding back our soldiers and horses for a long time, and he had already made great contributions, so why not think about himself now? ”
Faced with Guan Yu's pros and cons words, Sun Ben couldn't help but clench the wine bottle with both hands, and fell into silence again.
Guan Yu saw that Sun Ben was silent, and said again: "If Brother Boyang is unwilling to surrender, he will just break through at night and leave. But where can Boyang go? ”
"Going to Huiji?"
"There are many barbarians in Huiji, the road is rugged, and Boyang led the defeated soldiers to flee into Huiji, how difficult it is."
Sun Ben's heart tightened, he was worried and uneasy, his palm felt the texture of the wine bottle, and said: "Then in the opinion of Yun Chang, how should Ben behave?" ”
Guan Yu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Brother Boyang is old, why bother to run around, it is better to reunite with his family and enjoy the joy of family, and don't forget that Jun still has an eldest daughter to marry Cao Zhang." As Boyang, he rushed into Xuchang, and the wealth of the world was easy to obtain. ”
Sun Ben's expression moved slightly, and he said, "Can Yun Chang let a certain Beitou Cao Gonghu?" ”
Guan Yu took a sip of warm wine and said, "Brother Boyang left the soldiers and horses, and Yu sent the general and the family of Brother Jun out of the country, and let Jun go north to Jianghuai." ”
At the end of the Han Dynasty, although the heroes were divided and attacked each other, there was still a bottom line to speak of. That is, if it were not for the usurper who ascended the throne and became the emperor, he would basically not insist on causing the other party to die, and still retain some customs and habits of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
If Wang Lang was defeated and captured, Sun Ce just ignored it, and when the imperial court was called, Wang Lang swaggered north to serve as an official; After Yuzhang was too shou Huaxin surrendered, he was unwilling to serve Sun Quan, and no matter how Sun Quan persuaded him, Sun Quan could only send Huaxin out of the country; Yangzhou assassin Liu Miao died of illness, Sun Ceshan met his family, and his son Liu Ji took up important positions.
After all, everyone is an official canonized by the Son of Heaven on the surface, and they are still in the official system of the Han Dynasty, so they will not easily tear their faces, and they have to kill each other. Liu Zhang surrendered, and Liu Bei moved his family to live in the public security.
Even when the Three Kingdoms pattern was first divided, Yu was defeated and captured, and Guan Yu only chose to be imprisoned. It's just that no one expected Sun Quan to be so outrageous, capture Guan Yu, and actually kill him.
Sun Ben held the wine bottle and hesitated, and said, "Ben is worried about whether Liu Jingzhou will stop it?" ”
Guan Yu put down the wine bottle and said in a deep voice: "Please rest assured Boyang, Jun Xiancheng surrendered, Yu's life was guaranteed, and his cronies were ordered to send Boyang to Hefei." ”
After a pause, Guan Yu said: "Liu Jingzhou is also a person who values wings, and he will never stop him. ”
If it was Sun Quan, the lord of Jiangdong, Guan Yu did not dare to promise to let him and his family return to Cao Cao in the north. However, Sun Ben and Sun Fu were not very capable, and it was only because of the relationship between the Sun clan that they were able to serve as Taishou, so that Cao Cao could not make any waves in Beitou.
"Good!"
Sun Ben pondered before and after, drank all the wine, and said in a deep voice: "Ben and his younger brother went out of the city and surrendered, and Yun Chang guaranteed me to go north to Cao Gong safely." ”
"A gentleman's words are too much for his tongue!"
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms": "The right to follow the brother Yu Zhang is too guarded, the woman is Cao Gongzi's wife, and Cao Gong broke Jingzhou, shocked the southern soil, Ben was afraid, and wanted to send his son into the hostage. ”
