Chapter 309: Huarong Dao (2)
At this time, the sky was already dark again, and the moonlight was shining brightly.
Cao Cao's soldiers and horses had just traveled a hundred meters, and suddenly, three cannons rang out in front of him, and everyone in Cao Ying's camp was silent for a while. Everyone followed the sound and looked forward, and five hundred school swordsmen came out from the left and right of the mountain pass.
The eldest of the five hundred soldiers was twenty-four or five years old, and the youngest was seventeen or eighteen years old, and they were generally tall, all of them with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and each armed with a large sword.
The knife is five feet long, the head of the knife is two and a half feet, and the blade is two and a half feet, which is a typical saber used on the battlefield.
Five hundred school swordsmen are about one point, and two door flags are carried out, and there are two lines of big characters written on the door flag, this side is "Red Rabbit Horse is rare in the world", and there is "The Glaive Knife is peerless in the world". Among them, the flag officer is tall and carries the green brocade flag, which is blown by the wind, and the line is rolled, and the bell rings directly, and it is embroidered with "Hanshou Pavilion Hou".
Just in the red moonlight, the word "off" in the moonlight. Under the banner of Daxu, a red rabbit horse, with a messy mane and tail, full of fat, and the color of the horse was as red as red charcoal.
Immediately sat a tiger general, wearing a purple gold helmet, wearing a purple gold leaf armor, lined with a green robe, with a face like a heavy jujube, red phoenix eyes, lying silkworm eyebrows, and five locks of long hair on his chest. Carrying a green dragon glaive knife, his hand twists his long hair, and his phoenix eyes are slightly closed. This person knows everyone, it is Guan Yu Guan Yunchang!
Guan Yu has a white dragon horse on the left, and a young general on the horse, which is Guan Ping, and a black horse on the right, a general on the horse, black and stunned, with a big iron gun in his hand, it is Zhou Cang.
Although this army was only 500 men, it was as impressive as an army of 100,000 stopped in front of the road.
When Cao Cao saw it, he was almost shocked and turned his back on his back. The first time he met Zhao Yun in Wulin, Cao Cao almost fell off his horse; the second time he met Zhang Fei at the mouth of the gourd valley, Cao Cao's soul was scattered; this time he met Guan Yu in Huarong Road, and Cao Cao lost his temper completely.
Sometimes, you have to accept your fate.
Not only Cao Cao, but these civil officials and military generals were terrified, looking at each other, and couldn't help but retreat. At this time, everyone knew that although there were still more than 200 military horses, they had no combat power, and they were just lambs to be slaughtered.
Cao Cao gritted his teeth: The art of war is cloudy, and he will be born after death. Once you have come here, you can only fight to the death and flee by taking the road.
Of course, Cao Cao also knew that when Guan Yu made a move, it was these five hundred school swordsmen who rushed up, and even Cao Cao and his soldiers had to die. But now let's play with your life, rush through one and count one, and don't die if you can live one.
"All the sergeants listen to the order, fight for life and death here, and kill with me!" Cao Cao drew his sword, full of momentum.
Although the order was given, when he looked back, there was no movement at all, and the generals were all frowning and bowing their heads silently. A military academy leaned closer to Cao Cao, mustered up the courage and said softly: "Prime Minister, even though the last general is not afraid of death, but now that the war horse has no strength, how can he come forward to fight again......?"
How could Cao Cao not know?
He sighed: If you can't advance, you will retreat, Guan Yu will command the troops to chase forward, and the whole army will be wiped out; not to mention, Zhang Fei is still guarding the gourd valley mouth behind, which is really no way to heaven, no way to man and earth, and a dilemma.
At this time, Cheng Yu walked in front of Cao Cao: "Prime Minister, Guan Yun is arrogant but can't bear to be down, bullying the strong but not bullying the weak, clear grievances, and faithfulness." When Xuzhou was broken, you were kind to him, and today the prime minister can get out of this great difficulty if he personally comes forward to ask for it. ”
Cao Cao lowered his head and thought: This is not a bad way, and you can't be killed, right? Although heroes die on the battlefield, they can't be so cowardly. Back then, Han Xin was willing to suffer the humiliation of his crotch, so he had the world of the Han Dynasty, and now as long as Guan Yu lets me go through Huarong Dao, I can raise troops to avenge the revenge of Chibi after returning to Xudu.
He has the merit of being a man, that is, he is not stubborn.
After listening to Cheng Yu's words, he raised his hand to ask for a crown, and when he touched it with his hand, the marten on his head was long gone, and his hair was scattered. Cao Cao couldn't take care of it so much, so he came to Guan Yu and clasped his fists on the horse: "Brother Yun, don't come unharmed." ”
Guan Yu put the Qinglong Yanyue knife horizontally, held the back of the knife with his left hand, and bowed slightly, which was considered a return gift to Cao Cao.
"Prime Minister, Guan Mou was ordered by the military division to wait here for a long time. ”
"General Guan, now that my army is defeated and in danger, there is no way out, General Wanwang takes the old friendship as the most important thing and lets me live. ”
"Prime Minister, I want to be defeated by Guan at the beginning, although I have been gracious to you, but I have beheaded Yan Liang in Baimapo, and I have already repaid the Prime Minister in Yanjin. Today's matter, how can I abolish the public for personal gain?" Speaking of this, Guan Yu lowered his face, his eyebrows were upside down, and Danfeng's eyes were wide open.
Cao Cao was taken aback and shivered: This is to kill someone!
He reacted very quickly, and said in his heart: "Now there is death and no life, either the fish dies, or the net breaks." ”
Cao Cao was not afraid, raised his head and arched his hand on the horse twice: "General Guan, I want to agree on three things on the earth mountain outside Xuzhou City, Cao Mou did not lose his trust, but General, you passed five passes and killed six generals, and killed our generals in a row." But what did I do to you? I tried my best to disagree with the public, sent people to send three great orders in a row, and even sent Zhang Wenyuan to the Yellow River crossing to pass on my message, so that you can go to Hebei to find your brother in peace. General Guan, when I saw Runan City that day, when you fought with Duan Dahu, I had the heart to love talents. But I only hate me, Cao Cao's blessings are shallow, and he can't be in the same boat with the general, sharing the glory and wealth, but the eldest husband was born in heaven and earth, and he values faith and righteousness, how can he bear you? Not to mention that the general knows the "Spring and Autumn Period" very well, doesn't he know that Yu Gongzhi is chasing his son and his son?"
After Cao Cao said this, he looked up again, and suddenly found that Guan Yu paused, and his eyebrows moved up. With such a slight movement, Cao Cao observed his words and said: This time I can be saved.
Cao Cao's example is well caught.
"Spring and Autumn" is the most respected book of Confucianism in all dynasties, and it is also Guan Yu's favorite book, which is not only his founding principle, but also the foundation of his martial arts.
Yu Gongzhisi's chasing the son is a story that happened in the Wei State during the Spring and Autumn Period. Yu Gongzhisi's master is Yin Gongzhi, and Yin Gongzhi's master is Zi Mao's son, who learned archery. At that time, the war was a chariot war, and the main weapon for fighting on the chariot was the bow and arrow. Once, the monarch who defended the country sent Yu Gongzhisi to chase after his son, but Zimio was old and had no strength to pick up a bow and arrow to fight. If Yu Gongzhisi is not righteous, he can shoot Zi Mao to death with an arrow, but Yu Gongzhisi did not do this. Yu Gongzhi said: "Don't worry, I learned archery from Yin Gongzhi, and Yin Gongzhi learned archery from you, how can I bear to use your archery skills to hurt you?"
After speaking, Yu Gongzhisi knocked down the arrow of the carved arrow, and only the shaft of the arrow remained. He used four arrows to shoot Zi Mao four times. This arrow hit Zi Mao's son, of course, it didn't hurt him, it was equivalent to letting Zi Yanzi go. Since then, this allusion to the importance of faith has been left.
Cao Cao continued: "Yun Chang, when you sealed the gold seal, I said goodbye without saying goodbye, and I went to Baling Bridge to give you a meal. You traveled thousands of miles and rode alone, and it was difficult to protect the two imperial sisters-in-law all the way, so I did not send troops to chase and kill you, but sent envoys to tell the generals along the way to let the generals go. General Guan, I have not done the unjust thing of taking advantage of the danger of others, I don't know if the general remembers this affection? I am not showing favor and hoping to repay it, I believe that the general has been famous for his faith and righteousness for a long time, and he will certainly live up to his name. Today, Cao Cao begged hard, and General Guan couldn't bear to see death and not save him?"
When he said this, he really felt very aggrieved, his nose was sore, and tears almost flowed out. When all the civil and military officers heard Cao Cao's words of mourning, they wept sadly one by one, sad and sad.
After listening to Cao Cao's words, Guan Yu suddenly remembered: When Xuzhou was separated, after he arrived at Cao Ying, Cao Cao was indeed as kind to me as a mountain; I beheaded Yan Liang, punished Wen Chou, pacified Runan, and repaid Cao Cao's kindness. But when I was leaving, I left a letter, which was very clear: "He has not repaid his kindness, and I am willing to wait for another day." ”
The eldest husband is upright in the world, how can he be ungrateful and ungrateful?
Guan Yu's heart immediately softened, he lowered his head, and the big knife was lightly raised. Cao Cao was so frightened that he thought Guan Yu was going to kill him with a knife. Yun Chang pulled the horse's head back and gave the order: "The men and horses dodge." ”
This is clearly to release Cao Cao.
Cao Cao was overjoyed, and was about to say, "Thank you Yunchang!"
But suddenly, a black arrow shot at him. This arrow is not a sad little arrow, because it is not as bright and bright as a meteor as a small arrow, but it is just as powerful and castrated as thunder!
Just like Guan Yu's martial arts, it is still too late to stop it. Cao Cao fell in response to the arrow, and everyone in Cao Ying exclaimed: "Prime Minister!"
Guan Yu beat his horse and protected Cao Cao with a sword, and shouted towards the northwest: "What person!"
