Chapter 271 Liu Bei arrives and shakes his head against his will(1/2)
Although Nanzheng is far away from Fancheng, there is the Han River, so Liu Bei led an army of 10,000 Yu Lin and quickly arrived not far outside Fancheng.
When the vanguard of the Yulin army arrived at the Han army camp outside Fancheng, the Han army generals were still discussing matters in Guan Yu's tent.
When all the Han generals in the Han army camp learned the news that the Emperor was coming, most of them, except Mi Yang and Ma Liang, had expressions of surprise.
Everyone knew a war was coming.
At this juncture, Emperor Zhang Wu, the spiritual leader of the Han Dynasty, came to the front line in person, which was undoubtedly a very exciting thing.
But after hearing the news, General Guan Yu, who was the leader of the generals, showed some worry on his face.
At present, the Han army as a whole is in a dominant position in the war situation.
Under such circumstances, why did Liu Bei suddenly come to Fancheng?
Liu Bei's arrival surprised Guan Yu.
Liu Bei had previously planned to go on a personal expedition, and since he would write a letter to inform Mi Yang, Guan Yu certainly knew about it.
Just based on the time and the purpose of Liu Bei's personal expedition, Guan Yu felt that Liu Bei should have just arrived in Hanzhong in the past few days.
After Liu Bei arrived in Nanzheng City, Liu Bei should have stayed in Nanzheng City to grasp the overall progress.
It's like Cao Pi stayed quietly in Wancheng, only making rough arrangements and not going to the front line in person.
Guan Yu was right.
But what he didn't expect was that Mi Yang reported Ma Liang's guess to Liu Bei in advance just in case.
Based on Liu Bei's feelings for Guan Yu, it is reasonable for Liu Bei to travel day and night to Fan City after learning about this speculation.
An emperor with an extremely noble status would rush to the front line tirelessly because he was worried about the health of a minister.
This would be unimaginable in any dynasty, but in Ji Han's country, it was completely normal.
Although he was initially confused as to why Liu Bei suddenly arrived, Guan Yu later thought about it and guessed the general reason.
Guan Yu looked at Mi Yang beside him with reproachful eyes.
Mi Yang did not dodge after seeing Guan Yu's reproachful gaze, and there was a look of recognition on her face.
He accepted Guan Yu's blame calmly.
It's just that if he admits his mistake and goes back in time, he will still do the same thing.
Guan Yu could only helplessly sigh to himself when he saw Mi Yang admitting his mistake frankly.
This kid.
But now it is a fact that Liu Bei is about to arrive, so Guan Yu can only get up and lead the generals to wait quietly outside the camp to welcome the arrival of the Emperor of Han.
Shortly after Guan Yu led the generals to the outside of the camp, Liu Bei's ship appeared on the vast Han River outside Fancheng.
After Guan Yu defeated 20,000 Wei cavalry before, there was no longer an organized Wei army inside or outside Fancheng.
Therefore, Liu Bei's ship docked at the port ten miles away from Fancheng smoothly.
After the ship docked, Liu Bei eagerly got off the ship and came to the land.
He let most of the Yulin troops land at the port one after another, and he led a small number of Yulin troops on horseback towards the Han army camp outside Fancheng.
In terms of his own etiquette, Liu Bei's current behavior is very un-emperor.
But it fits the style of an older brother who is worried about his younger brother's health.
The distance of more than ten miles was covered in no time at the speed of the cavalry.
Soon after, Liu Bei personally led a small number of cavalry troops and appeared outside the Han army camp in Fancheng.
When Liu Bei's figure appeared, Guan Yu quickly led the generals behind him to salute Liu Bei.
But now Liu Bei only has Guan Yu in his eyes.
When Liu Bei saw Guan Yu appear safely in front of him, the anxious look on his face gradually dissipated.
This was because Liu Bei saw the presence of outsiders, so he temporarily hid his anxiety in his heart.
Although he was worried about Guan Yu's health, Liu Bei was the hero after all, so he still knew he had some concerns.
Not long after Guan Yu led the generals to bow down, Liu Bei rode his horse like a gust of wind and came not far in front of Guan Yu.
After arriving not far in front of Guan Yu, Liu Bei quickly got off his horse and walked towards Guan Yu.
When Liu Bei walked towards Guan Yu, he already opened his mouth to let the generals stand down.
After Guan Yu and all the generals were leveled, Liu Bei, who took three steps and two steps in a row, was already standing one step in front of Guan Yu.
This distance allowed Liu Bei to clearly observe Guan Yu's face.
During the time when Liu Bei was observing Guan Yu's expression, the generals behind Guan Yu seemed to notice something unusual.
Why do you feel the atmosphere is a bit depressing?
No, they just won the battle. Shouldn't His Majesty praise them with joy?
Your Majesty has been staring at the general now, what is going on.
Most of the generals didn't know why Liu Bei came, so they had this question in their minds.
But Guan Yu, Mi Yang, and Ma Liang knew the purpose of Liu Bei's visit, so they all knew what Liu Bei was doing.
Being looked at by Liu Bei like this in public, even Guan Yu, who had a face as thick as a jujube, was a little embarrassed.
So he took the initiative to break the silence and said: "Your Majesty has traveled hard to come here. It is getting late now, so I have just asked the soldiers to prepare an imperial tent for your Majesty to rest first."
After hearing Guan Yu's words, Liu Bei moved his eyes away from Guan Yu's face, and then looked at Mi Yang behind Guan Yu.
From the look on Guan Yu's face, Liu Bei didn't see anything hesitant about Guan Yu's body.
But Liu Bei will not take this lightly.
So after listening to Guan Yu's words, Liu Bei responded to Guan Yu in front of all the generals: "I am a little tired."
"It's just that the military situation is urgent. I have some important matters to discuss with the general. I can just go to the general's tent to rest."
As soon as Liu Bei's words came out, the expressions of the generals behind Guan Yu did not change much.
The emperor and the general were not allowed to sleep in the same tent according to etiquette.
But Liu Bei and Guan Yu, well, that's normal.
Although the generals did not find it strange, Guan Yu understood Liu Bei best among all the people present.
He heard Liu Bei's intention from this arrangement.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It’s just that Liu Bei and Mi Yang are different. Guan Yu can use his status and power, so Mi Yang has no choice but to resign.
For Liu Bei, Guan Yu had no choice but to accept his orders in the end.
Seeing that Guan Yu accepted his arrangement, Liu Bei nodded slightly, and then he said to Mi Yang: "It will be fine for Zi Sheng to be on duty alone tonight."
Liu Bei's arrangement surprised the generals. After all, it was a bit strange to ask Mi Yang, the general of the left, to keep watch.
But Liu Bei is the emperor after all, which can also reflect Liu Bei's love for Mi Yang, so although the generals felt it was a bit inconsistent, they didn't think much about it.
Only after listening to Liu Bei's arrangements, Mi Yang intuitively told him that something unusual might happen in Guan Yu's tent tonight.
So facing Liu Bei's arrangement, Mi Yang quickly accepted the order.
After arranging these two points, Liu Bei saw that the sky was getting darker, and he asked Guan Yu to take him to his sleeping tent.
The other generals saw that Liu Bei did not pay attention to their thoughts today, so after bowing to Liu Bei, the generals dispersed one after another.
Only General Mi Yang, the left general who had the important task of keeping vigil for the emperor and the general, followed the two bosses honestly.
When Guan Yu led Liu Bei into his sleeping tent, Mi Yang dispersed the pro-army troops outside Guan Yu's sleeping tent on the grounds that he was under the orders of the emperor.
Soon after, the only person left outside Guan Yu's sleeping tent was General Zuo of the Han Dynasty, wearing Mingguang armor and holding a halberd.
After watching Guan Yu and Liu Bei enter their accounts, Mi Yang remembered a record he had read in later generations.
"In the early days, Liu Bei was in Xu, and he went hunting with Duke Cao. During the hunt, the crowd dispersed, and Yu persuaded Bei to kill the Duke, but he refused. When he was in Xiakou, drifting across the Yangtze River, Yu said angrily: "In the past, when I was hunting, if I followed Yu
By the way, I won’t be as trapped as I am today.”
Bei said: "At this time, we are also cherished by the country. If the way of heaven assists us, I know this will not be a blessing or evil!"
When being chased by Cao Jun and running around, Guan Yu lost his temper. He recalled the past and blamed Liu Bei for not listening to him in the first place.
As Guan Yu's lord, Liu Bei did not get angry after hearing Guan Yu's "blame" or, to be more precise, his complaint. Instead, he was able to explain his behavior with words.
In fact, Liu Bei was right to stop Guan Yu from killing Cao Cao.
But despite this, Liu Bei did not use his status as lord to reprimand Guan Yu, but instead chose to fight him.
Could it be that Liu Bei is a good man and dare not punish his subordinates?
Chang Yu and other celebrities who died because of offending Liu Bei's majesty must have scoffed at this speculation.
Liu Bei behaved like this entirely because the person who complained to him was Guan Yu, his younger brother.
And out of his elder brother's tolerance and love for his younger brother, he couldn't bear to scold him, but chose to beat him up himself.
What's even more amazing is that after such an incident, Liu Bei actually handed over Jingzhou to Guan Yu for guarding.
