Chapter 357 The Death of Guan Gong

The Shu Han carefully investigated the news of the alliance between Wu and Wei, and Kong Ming ordered Yunchang to attack Fancheng first to break the situation.

Yun Chang taught Guan Ping and Liao Hua to go into battle. After a short battle, they pretended to be defeated and turned their horses back. Cao General Zhai Yuan pursued them for more than 20 miles.

The next day, the same strategy was used again.

Xia Houcun and Zhai Yuan also chased them out. Unexpectedly, the sound of killing behind them was loud, and they were ambushed.

Cao Ren knew that he had been tricked, so he abandoned the army and ignored it. Unfortunately for the two generals, Xia Houcun and Zhai Yuan, they were beheaded by Yunchang.

After being defeated and retreating to Fancheng, Cao Ren issued a letter requesting support.

Meng De pointed to one of the generals and said, "Can you go and relieve the siege of Fancheng?"

Everyone looks at it because it is forbidden.

"I am willing to go, and I would like to ask a general to be the vanguard and lead the troops with me!"

Yu Dao nodded in agreement, but put forward a condition.

"Oh? I wonder who dares to be the pioneer?"

"I am willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses, capture Yun Chang alive, and offer it to the king's tent!"

"Well, Ling Ming is truly a hero!"

Meng De was overjoyed and made Yu Jin the general of the southern expedition. Pang De was the vanguard of the western expedition and sent seven troops to Fancheng.

One of the counselors, Daopang De, was a subordinate of Ma Chao and was suspected of surrendering to the enemy.

Pang De immediately built a coffin and said to everyone: "I have received great kindness from King Wei and I swear to repay it with death. Now I am going to Fancheng to fight Yunchang. If I cannot kill him, I will be killed by him. Even if I am not killed by him, I will

You should also commit suicide."

When all the generals saw him, they were all impressed by his bravery.

"How dare you despise me, Mr. Pang De!"

But when this matter reached Yun Chang's ears, he became furious.

In front of the two armies, he rode his horse and cursed: "Yun Chang is here, Pang De comes quickly to die!"

"According to the decree of King Wei, I am here to take your head!"

The two rode horses and wielded swords, and the battle continued for hundreds of rounds.

The Wei army feared that Pang De might be at fault, so they hurriedly offered gold to withdraw their troops. Guan Ping also thought that his father was old, so he also offered gold.

Pang De returned to the camp and said to everyone: "Guan Gong is a hero, and he is worthy of his trust today!"

While he was talking, Yu Daoxian stimulated him with words: "Seeing that the general and Guan Gong have fought for hundreds of rounds without gaining any advantage, why not withdraw the army to avoid the edge?"

"The King of Wei appointed the general as a general, why are you showing weakness? I will fight Guan Gong to the death tomorrow!"

Pang De was indeed agitated and was full of fighting spirit.

On the second day, he fought with Guan Gong for fifty rounds and escaped with his sword.

"Pang Thief! So what if you use the knife trick? I'm not afraid of you!"

Guan Gong had already seen through it and pursued him endlessly.

"The thief will not let go of his cold arrows!"

Guan Ping had quick eyesight and hurriedly reminded him.

Even so, Guan Gong was unable to dodge and hit his left arm with an arrow.

Guan Ping held the pass and did not go out for more than ten days to give Guan Gong time to recover from his injuries.

When Guan Gong recovered from his illness, he climbed up to inspect the military situation and saw General Yu Jin's army stationed in the north of Fancheng. He was immediately overjoyed.

When the autumn rain came, he ordered people to dig out the mouth of the Xiangjiang River and flood the seven armies.

In an instant, the flood surged like thousands of horses galloping and shattered the earth.

"Guan Gong, Guan Gong, this is your way to die!"

The soul escaped from the forbidden body and became a spectator.

Yu Jin, Pang De and other generals quickly climbed up the hill to avoid the water.

At dawn, Guan Gong and others came by boat and captured many soldiers alive.

After a hard fight, Pang De failed to escape and was killed by Guan Gong.

As for Yu Jin's physical body, he was imprisoned in a cell and became a prisoner.

When he heard that Yu Jin had been captured and Pang De had been beheaded, Meng De was shocked and prepared to move the capital to avoid the danger.

Sima Yi advised: "Yu Jin was flooded, and it was not due to the war. It is better to send envoys to Dongwu to state the interests, so that Sun Quan can send troops."

"Alas! Why did Yu Jin make such a big mistake after following this king for thirty years?"

Although he kept sighing, Meng De suddenly had a clear understanding in his heart.

But when Sun Quan got the letter, he was also afraid of Guan Gong's reputation.

Lu Meng, his general, reported: "It is better to take Jingzhou first, occupy the natural dangers of the rivers, and then make plans."

Sun Quan immediately appointed Lu Meng as a general to take charge of Jingzhou affairs.

However, Lu Meng was serious but had no good plan, so he lied about being ill and did not send troops for the time being.

Counselor Lu Xun arrived overnight and offered a plan.

Lü Meng continued to be ill, so Sun Quan made Lu Xun a general to guard Lukou on Lü Meng's behalf.

After Guan Gong flooded the Seventh Army, he became increasingly proud and complacent. He looked down on unknown people like Lu Xun and naturally did not take them into his heart.

Then he withdrew most of the Jingzhou garrison and went to Fancheng to listen.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sun Quan appointed Lu Meng as the Grand Governor, ordered 30,000 troops, and more than 80 fast boats, all disguised as merchants and fishermen, and sneaked into Jingzhou City one after another.

At the second watch, they all launched an attack and captured Jingzhou in one fell swoop.

In the Fancheng area, Xu Huang got the news and spread the news about the capture of Jingzhou while sending troops to attack.

Guan Gong only said it was false news and didn't believe it at all.

But this move finally shook the morale of the army, and Guan Pingping was defeated one after another, losing Yancheng and other places.

As a last resort, Guan Gong had no choice but to drag his sick body to fight Xu Huang. After more than eighty rounds of fighting, he was undefeated and then returned to the stronghold.

Suddenly a large army came out and attacked Xu Huang from two sides, killing Guan Gong and others.

Guan Gong hurriedly led the remaining people to cross the Xiangjiang River. There were also meteors coming to report that Jingzhou had been lost.

Everyone did not dare to return to Jingzhou, so they had to find another place.

When he heard that Mi Lan and others had surrendered to Soochow, he was so angry that his sores burst open and he passed out.

After waking up, he sent a letter to Han Bei asking for support, and at the same time gathered the remaining defeated soldiers and tried to recapture Jingzhou.

However, during the march, many soldiers fled back to Jingzhou, and the morale of the army had long since dispersed.

On the Soochow side, all the generals came to take a bite.

At the third watch of the killing, only more than 300 of Guan Gong's men were left. Seeing that they were about to die here, Guan Ping and Liao Hua led reinforcements from two groups to relieve Guan Gong's difficulties.

A group of people gathered their troops and went to Maicheng, but the city was surrounded by Wu soldiers on all sides.

Liao Hua finally broke through and asked Liu Feng for reinforcements.

Liu Feng politely refused, saying that it was a drop in the bucket, which made Liao Hua curse loudly and had to get up and return to Hanzhong for help.

Lu Meng trapped Guan Gong and others in Maicheng, and ordered Zhu Ran to lead five thousand elite troops to ambush on a small road twenty miles north of Maicheng.

Sure enough, at night, Guan Gong led more than 200 people to rush out of the north gate and went straight to the path.

At dawn, both father and son were captured alive and escorted to Sun Quan.

Sun Quan originally wanted to persuade him to surrender, but Meng De had something to do first, so he had to bear the pain and kill him.

The red rabbit and horse knew that their master was dead and died without eating fodder for several days.

On that day, Sun Quan rewarded the three armies and personally poured wine for Lu Meng.

Lu Meng took the wine and was about to drink it. Suddenly he threw the cup on the ground, grabbed Sun Quan and cursed fiercely: "Blue-eyed boy! Purple-bearded rat! Do you still recognize me?"

Then Lu Meng pushed Sun Quan down, sat on the throne and shouted, "Since I broke the Yellow Turban, I have dominated the world for more than thirty years, and now you have used treacherous tricks to harm me. I will not be able to eat your flesh while I live, and I will chase the soul of the thief Lu."

!I am the Shoutinghou of the Han Dynasty, Guan Yunchang!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in Soochow was shocked and hurriedly bowed down.

After waiting for a while, he saw that there was no sound from the people sitting on the seat. When he looked up, he saw that Lu Meng had already been bleeding to death from all his orifices.

After Guan Gong spared Lu Meng's life, he came to Dangyang County in confusion and met an old monk.

Knowing the identity of Guan Gong, the old monk immediately woke up and said: "Now the general was killed by Lu Meng, but Yan Liang, Wen Chou, the five generals and the six generals, who will ask for their heads?"

Guan Gong suddenly realized this, and immediately showed himself as a saint to protect the people in Yuquan Mountain. Later, he was named Emperor Xietian, and his throne became increasingly stable.
