Chapter 59 Human Shield

When the white horse was defeated, Guan Yu thought it was Yan Liang's luck.

Defeating Cao Hong and capturing Cao Ren were all rumors in Guan Yu's eyes and were not worthy of belief.

Now that he was fighting again, he could truly appreciate Yan Liang's martial arts and his strange military tactics.

At this time, Guan Yu wished he could fight Yan Liang for thousands of years, until they had to fight to the death to avenge his past shame.

But when Guan Yu saw Liu Bei in danger, he had to swallow the bitterness and anger.

Guan Yu pointed his broadsword at Yan Liang and said coldly: "Yan Liang, please send me your head. Guan will one day—"

"Don't worry about it one day. If you have the guts, let's decide the outcome today!"

Guan Yu wanted to leave a cruel message before evacuating to make up for the shame of defeat. Unexpectedly, Yan Liang didn't give him a chance. He said something back, slapped his horse and wielded his sword to kill him.

Guan Yu's face was filled with anger after being interrupted. He really wanted to fight Yan Liang to the death. He held back for a moment, but he could only glare at Yan Liang hatefully, turned his horse and ran towards Liu Bei.

Red Rabbit's horse is so fast that in the blink of an eye, Guan Yu is already more than ten steps away.

Yan Liang knew that the opponent relied on the speed of Red Rabbit's horse, and he would never be able to catch up with him. Now that Guan Yu was forced to run away in despair, he was already relieved, so there was no need to show off his anger again.

At that moment, Yan Liang stopped pursuing Guan Yu, summoned his troops on horseback, and attacked Liu Bei's army who was in chaos.

Five hundred iron pagodas, one thousand divine cavalry, and three thousand elite infantry. Such a combination of legion is enough to be called the most elite division in the world.

How can Liu Bei's 10,000 newly formed Yellow Turban Army be his rival?

Seeing that the defeat was certain, Liu Bei did not hold on, and immediately ordered the entire army to retreat. The great uncle of the Han Dynasty decisively abandoned the entire army. Under the protection of Guan Yu, Chen Dao, and two thousand Danyang soldiers, he looked towards the direction of Runan.

Flee in the face of the wind.

Poor those 10,000 yellow scarf troops, after being abandoned by Liu Bei, they could only fall into the territory of holding their heads and running around.

Yan Liang led his troops to rush from left to right, killing them like rivers of blood and corpses everywhere.

In the afternoon, the battle ended.

The wilderness more than ten miles east of Biyang City was full of corpses. The blood dyed the fertile wilderness into a large red swamp, which was muddy and emitted bursts of stench.

"General, we won a great victory in this battle, and the killing was very exciting."

Liu Pi came on horseback, shouting excitedly, his blood-stained face unable to conceal his passion and joy.

This time in the Battle of Biyang, in order to confuse Liu Bei, Yan Liang did not appoint Wenpin and other reusable leaders, but chose to let the unknown Liu Pi lead the army.

Liu Pi did not disappoint Yan Liang. He seized this opportunity and fought hard to help Yan Liang complete this great victory.

Yan Liang patted his shoulder and praised: "You fought well in this battle. It seems that my training was not in vain."

After being praised by Yan Liang, the yellow turban warrior in front of him was so excited that he almost burst into tears.

Although this battle is won, it is not over yet. Keeping Liu Bei in Runan is really a threat. Yan Liang will now plan to eliminate all evil.

So Yan Liang led a thousand gods on horseback and continued to pursue Liu Bei's defeated army in the direction of Runan, while Liu Pi followed with his infantry.

For two days and two nights, Yan Liang pursued relentlessly and defeated Liu Bei's attempts several times along Tu.

Liu Bei, who was defeated and fell, did not dare to fight Yan Liang again. When he fled all the way to Ancheng, there were only less than 500 people left with him.

At this time, the ones left to guard Ancheng were Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, with no more than a thousand troops under their command.

Because Liu Bei was confident that Cao Cao did not dare to divide his troops and go south, he sent his troops to the new field. He came with all his troops, but he did not expect that the 10,000 men and horses would be completely defeated. Now, with the troops and horses guarding An City, Liu Bei's total troops arrived.

two thousand.

Seeing Yan Liang chasing after him fiercely, Liu Bei knew that An city could not be defended and did not even dare to enter the city gate. He went directly around the city to the east. He only sent people into the city to notify Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun and quickly escort Jia Xiao out of the city to meet him.

Liu Bei had just passed Ancheng with his front leg, and Yan Liang led a thousand gods to catch up with him.

"Xu~~"

Reining his horse on the hillside, Yan Liang raised his eyes and looked into the distance, with the familiar city in full view.

A few months ago, he was the master of Ancheng. It was here that he defeated Cao Ren, gathered thousands of direct soldiers and horses, and dug out the first pot of gold.

Now, Ancheng has become Liu Bei's home base.

"Whoever has a strong fist will be loyal to him. This wise saying is really good..."

When Yan Liangliang was sarcastic in his mind, Ancheng, which was originally closed, suddenly experienced strange movements.

The closed city gates suddenly opened wide, and hundreds of people supported the old and young. They pushed and squeezed out of the city, crying and making trouble and looking towards the east road to escape. After a while, thousands of people crowded in.

Coming out of the city, the eastbound highway was packed to the brim.

Seeing this scene, Yan Liang had a vague premonition, so he hurriedly ordered his scouts to go investigate.

However, when the time came, the scouts reported that Liu Bei had passed through Ancheng but failed to enter, and had fled to the east. Before leaving, he sent people to spread the word throughout the city, claiming that Yan Liang would massacre the city in retaliation for the people of Ancheng for supporting Liu Bei, and told them to flee for their lives.

Yan Liang nodded slightly and asked: "Except for the east gate, what is the situation of the other three gates?"

"For some reason, the other three doors are all closed, and only the east door is wide open."

After hearing this, Yan Liang was convinced of his guess.

As soon as the people of Ancheng heard that Yan Liang was coming to massacre the city, they were naturally frightened and fled out of the city. The other three gates were closed tightly, so they had to crowd towards the east gate.

Thousands of disorderly people crowded together like this, and the eastbound road was naturally blocked. This effectively blocked Yan Liang's way to continue his pursuit.

If Yan Liang wanted to continue his pursuit, he would have to step on the corpses of these people and bear the reputation of massacring people.

"Human roadblock is indeed a clever way to escape. It's amazing..." Yan Liang sneered, with a trace of sarcasm appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Next to him, Zhou Cang said: "General, what are we waiting for? Why don't we kill the general and go out, disperse the people, and continue to pursue Liu Bei."

Zhou Cang was just a warrior, and what was more, he was always engaged in killing people. In his eyes, it would not be a pity to kill all the people blocking the road.

Yan Liang was different. As a superior person, even if he could treat the common people as nothing, and act only as a last resort, he could not do so.

Moreover, even if Yan Liang persisted in pursuit regardless of the lives of these civilians, such a swarming crowd would be enough to slow him down. When he broke through the obstruction, Liu Bei might have escaped and disappeared.

Since Liu Bei has escaped and ascended to heaven, why should he continue to do unnecessary killings?

Yan Liang waved his hand and said: "Forget it, Liu Bei's ability to escape is unparalleled. Why should he just hurt innocent people? Send the order and let the whole army go to the north gate and enter the city."

Regardless of not chasing Liu Bei, now Yan Liang decided to enter the city from the north, and Zhou Cang was suddenly confused.

"General, if you don't want to hurt innocent people, you can just enter the city through the west gate. Why should you go all the way to the north gate? You will be stupid." Zhou Cang couldn't help but ask.

Yan Liang pursued him from the southwest. Normally, the west gate was the shortest way to enter the city, but he unexpectedly chose to go around to the north gate.

This is because Yan Liangliang has a vague hunch that there will probably be unexpected gains on the other side of the north gate.

"I have my own opinions, so why ask more questions?" Yan Liang didn't explain much and just shouted loudly.

Zhou Cang didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly gave the order.

More than a thousand gods rode on horseback, and then walked around for several miles to look at the north gate.

When the tower of the north gate gradually came into view, a strange color suddenly flashed in Yan Liang's sharp-edged eyes.

As far as the eye could see, I saw seven to eight hundred soldiers and horses, escorting several carriages, exiting from the north gate and turning to the east in a hurry.
