Chapter five hundred and twentieth shocked Guan Gong into anger
Shouchun City.
In the military mansion, a banquet was going on.
Guan Yu and Zhou Yu were laughing, chatting and drinking. The atmosphere between them was rare and relaxed.
"Zijing, Jiangdong is in chaos, and Yan Liang has to send troops to the south for reinforcements. Now that his military advisor is stationed in front of Shouchun City, he will retreat sooner or later. Zijing, it seems that your strategy has indeed worked."
Zhou Yu, who was even in a good mood, actually praised Lu Su, as if the contempt and contempt had disappeared.
"Yan Liang is in a disadvantageous situation. This is entirely due to the skillful deployment of troops by General Yunchang and Zhou Dudu. Su is just a small plan, which is really not worth mentioning."
Lu Su behaved very humbly. In front of two arrogant people, Lu Su did not dare to take credit.
Zhou Yu smiled heartily and felt very proud.
Guan Yu also stroked his long beard, with a proud look on his face: "I expected that soon the Yan thieves would withdraw. At that time, we will use all our troops to pursue them, and we will definitely win a great victory, severely damage the Yan thieves, and take back the Yan thieves in one fell swoop.
Hefei.”
Guan Yu's heroic words infected the allied generals present. Their morale had been low, and their confidence was gradually restored at this time.
"Commander father, when the army goes south during the war, I will personally cut off the head of that thief and avenge that arrow for my father commander." Guan Ping shouted angrily.
Guan Yu snorted coldly, "It would be too easy for him to kill that thief with one sword. I will make him repay the revenge tenfold."
Guan Yu and his son wanted to take revenge, and Zhou Yu also wanted to take revenge for losing his love to Yan Liang. However, Zhou Yu could not say such shameful words in public.
At that moment, Zhou Yu said happily: "General Guan, I predict that in a few days, we will have the opportunity to turn from defense to attack. Why not take advantage of today's meeting to discuss the pursuit of Yan Thief in the future."
"Okay, that's right." Guan Yu also nodded happily.
Therefore, during this harmonious banquet, Zhou Yu and Guan Yu began to plan a counterattack strategy.
Although the two sides have different views on specific details, the overall goal is the same. They are both confident that the final victory must belong to them.
When the banquet was in full swing and the atmosphere was getting thicker, Liao Hua hurried in from outside, his face full of solemnity.
"Report to General, urgent report of Xuzhou's 100,000 firemen." Liao Hua cupped his hands and said in a deep voice.
Guan Yu looked disapproving and said casually: "If there is any urgent matter in Xuzhou, think about it."
Liao Hua stopped talking and winked secretly at Guan Yu, as if he wanted to report to Guan Yu alone.
Guan Yu, who was very drunk, turned a blind eye to Liao Hua's eyes and only talked and joked with Zhou Yu.
Liao Hua hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said: "General, Guangling Prefect Zang Ba reported urgently that a few days ago, General Zhang Liao of the Yan Army led a cavalry raid in Xuzhou, killed Mi Fang, the prefect of Xiapi, and captured Xiapi City in one fell swoop.
"
As soon as he said this, the originally bustling lobby fell into silence.
All eyes were turned to Liao Hua, with surprised looks in their eyes, as if they thought Liao Hua was talking nonsense.
"Zang Ba is so brave. Doesn't he know the consequences of lying about military information? How could Yan Jun attack Tiapi? Could they have wings?"
Guan Yu was slightly shaken, but his expression remained as calm as iron. He simply did not believe that what Liao Hua said was true.
Liao Hua had no choice but to say with a grimace: "According to Governor Zang, Yan's army came from the sea and first attacked Haixi County. Then they attacked with light cavalry for a long distance and captured Xiapi by surprise. Xuzhou is now in chaos.
Governor Zang asked the general to give instructions quickly."
After these words, the surprised expressions of all the generals present turned into horror.
The red face of Guan Yu, who was originally dismissive, gradually stiffened at this moment, and a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes that defied the world.
Guan Yu was completely shocked.
Even if he wanted to take advantage of him, he would never have imagined that Yan Liang could come up with a sneak attack on Xuzhou from the sea.
He couldn't even believe that Yan Liang was so brave and dared to risk the storm and annihilation of his entire army to carry out this move.
After being stunned, Guan Yu suddenly realized.
He finally understood why there was a rebellion in Shanyue in Jiangdong, and Yan Liangjiu could not attack Shouchun, but he refused to withdraw his troops and return to Wu.
It turned out that Yan Liang wanted to deploy troops here to induce him to transfer a large number of troops from Xuzhou to Huainan, creating a void in the rear. Then Yan Liang could take the opportunity to carry out this surprise attack on the sea.
Guan Yu suddenly came to his senses. What was burning in his heart at this moment was not only anger, but also deep shock.
Shocked by Yan Liang's courage, shocked by Yan Liang's resourcefulness, and even more shocked by the depth of Yan Liang's layout.
Guan Yu jumped to his feet, clenching his fists and cracking his joints. He seemed to have endless anger that he wanted to vent, but his face was so full that it turned purple, and he couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
"General, Xiapi is the heart of Xuzhou. Now that Xiapi City is lost, the hearts of the entire Xuzhou are in turmoil. We must not ignore it."
Liao Hua, whose face was full of anxiety, almost cried to persuade Guan Yu.
"General Guan, there is no need to worry. Yan's army goes deep into the area alone. If they attack Tiapi by chance, they may not be able to cause any more waves. We must not mess up our position first."
Zhou Yu, who was also shocked, was busy trying to comfort him.
At this time, Guan Yu could not be impatient. He glared at Zhou Yu and said angrily: "If I hadn't been here to help you guard Shouchun, how could I have repeatedly mobilized troops and horses from Xuzhou? How could I have done anything for the Yan thief?"
While I'm at it, you don't have to say any more sarcastic words."
Guan Yu originally disliked Zhou Yu, but now that Pi City was lost, Guan Yu's face was damaged. He became angry and pushed the responsibility away from Zhou Yu.
The originally harmonious atmosphere was instantly shattered by Guan Yu's anger.
Zhou Yu was also angered and said in a deep voice: "You sent troops to help me fight against the Yan bandits, not because you didn't want to be attacked on both sides. Now that your own defense is not tight and you lost Xiapi, how dare you blame me? Guan Yunchang, you too
It’s too unreasonable.”
At this time, Zhou Yu was also furious and openly accused Guan Yu.
Guan Yu, who was already angry, couldn't help but flew into a rage. He clenched his fists and wanted to attack Zhou Yu on the spot.
When Taishi Ci and other Zhou generals on the left and right saw this, they all changed their minds, and everyone held their swords in their hands.
Guan Ping and the generals of Xuzhou rushed towards Guan Yu and planned to attack him on the spot.
In this lobby, tensions were rising, and an internal fight was about to begin.
At this time, when Lu Su saw this, he jumped up and blocked the two groups of people. He advised: "Two generals, calm down. The Yan thief attacked Xiapi in a sneak attack to disrupt the morale of our coalition forces. Now we are fighting among ourselves."
, isn’t it just falling into Thief Yan’s scheme?”
Lu Su's persuasion finally managed to calm the angry two people.
"Send the order, and the whole army will leave camp and return north tonight to rescue Xuzhou." Guan Yu suppressed his anger and made a decision.
"General, how many troops should we keep in Shouchun?" Liao Hua asked.
"Leave no one behind and retreat back to Xuzhou." Guan Yu snorted coldly, glared at Zhou Yu, and strode away with a puff of sleeves.
Guan Ping and other generals also followed suit and left, and in a blink of an eye, not one of them was left.
In the lobby, silence returned.
Zhou Yu's anger also calmed down, and the anger on his handsome face was replaced by sadness.
Zhou Yu understood that Guan Yu was giving up the joint resistance against Yan and planned to withdraw all his troops and horses back to Xuzhou. In this way, only he and his 6,000 troops were left to fight Yan Liang's 60,000 troops independently.
Isolated and helpless, with such disparity in strength, the hope of a comeback in this war is almost slim.
Lu Su looked at the dejected Zhou Yu, sighed, and cupped his hands and said: "Gong Jin, what has happened so far cannot be undone without human resources. If it is not possible, just abandon Shouchun and come to join General Zuo."
Zhou Yu suddenly raised his head and glared at Lu Su, as if Lu Su's words had deeply hurt Zhou Yu's dignity.
Lu Su felt a chill in his heart and sighed bitterly: "That's all I have to say, Gong Jin, please take care of yourself."
After saying that, Lu Su turned around and left, following Guan Yu out of the city.
"Is it no longer possible to save it through human efforts..."
Zhou Yu suddenly became confused and weak, and sat down paralyzed.
…
Yan Liang, who lives in the south of Shouchun City, is still unclear about the drastic changes that have taken place in Xuzhou.
Yan Liang had a strong premonition, he had a premonition that it would be the next few days.
Therefore, Yan Liang sent an order to step up reconnaissance and surveillance of the Zhou and Liu coalition forces inside and outside Shouchun, and ordered Xu You to strengthen the intelligence spying on Xuzhou's fine network.
Early that morning, when Yan Liang was inspecting the camps, Zhou Cang came on horseback and shouted excitedly: "My lord, the scouts are reporting urgently that Guan Yu's army withdrew last night and the whole division has retreated to Xuzhou."
Guan Yu has retreated!
Yan Liang cheered up and knew in his heart that this was probably a plan. Zhang Liao had successfully attacked Xiapi City. Otherwise, what reason would Guan Yu have for hastily returning to Xuzhou?
Feeling inspired, Yan Liang immediately ordered to summon all the generals.
Half an hour later, Gan Ning, Huang Zhong, Ling Tong and other generals all gathered in the central tent.
Yan Liang said loudly: "The scouts have just received their report. Guan Yu has withdrawn all his troops and returned north. Zhou Yu is already alone. I have called you here today to order you to make preparations and launch the final attack on Shouchun tomorrow."
When the generals heard that Guan Yu had withdrawn his troops, they were all greatly surprised, and their long-suppressed fighting spirit aroused wildly.
At this time, Ling Tong calmly said: "Guan Yu suddenly withdrew his troops and returned north for no reason. It seems a little strange. The general is only afraid that this is a treacherous plot by the enemy."
Before Ling Tong finished speaking, his troops entered the account and sent a piece of detailed information from Xuzhou to Yan Liang.
Yan Liang took the information in the silk book and couldn't help laughing wildly, and showed the information to the generals.
What was written in the silk book was the successful report of Zhang Liao's attack on Xiapi.
With this piece of information, Yan Liang could be sure that Guan Yu's retreat was not a ploy, but that he was rushing to save his old man and could no longer help Zhou Yu.
The generals were all shocked after seeing this information.
The stunned generals could not figure out why Zhang Liao, who had clearly gone back to Jiangdong to rebel more than ten days ago, miraculously appeared in Xuzhou this time and was able to conquer Xiapi City.
In the confusion, only Pang Tong, who knew better, was stroking his beard and smiling.
So Pang Tong stood up and told the generals the truth and truth.
At this time, the generals suddenly realized that all this was actually a strange plan prepared by their lord in advance.
The generals who came to their senses were all in admiration for Yan Liang's resourcefulness and layout. The generals looked at Yan Liang as if they were looking at a god-like existence.
Having enjoyed the admiration of all the generals, Yan Liang's pride has become intense.
He looked around the generals and said loudly: "Zhou Yu has lost his helping hand and is now alone. It's time to settle the grudges between Gu and him. Tomorrow morning, the whole army will launch a final attack. Gu will defeat Shouchun in one fell swoop." !" (To be continued.
