Yan Liang wanted to give Guan Yu a big gift to let him know that his son fell into his hands.
A bloody arm is definitely a shocking gift.
Of course, Yan Liang did not expect to use Guan Ping to threaten Guan Yu. He also knew that a self-proclaimed loyal guy like Guan Yu would never betray Liu Bei's interests just because of a mere adopted son.
What Yan Liang wanted to do was to deeply stimulate Guan Yu in his heart, anger this arrogant general, and force him to act out of proportion in anger.
Guan Ping was horrified. He never expected that Yan Liang not only had no scruples about him, the son of Guan Gong, but actually dared to kill him.
One arm has been lost, and the person is half disabled. If another arm is cut off, wouldn't it mean that he really becomes a cripple?
For a proud military commander, this is worse than death.
"Yan Liang, you thief, you dare to do this to me, my handsome father will never forgive you, never." Guan Ping refused to change his mind, and at this time, he tried to threaten Yan Liang with his own father.
Asking for trouble.
Yan Liang snorted coldly, waved his hands and yelled: "First slap my prince in the mouth, slap him hard, until he can no longer act arrogantly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Cang, who had been ready to make a move, rolled up his sleeves and strode forward.
snap
With a clear and loud sound, a five-finger blood mark was added to Guan Ping's right face.
Zhou Cang's strength was so great that with this slap, Guan Ping was slapped until stars appeared in his eyes and the corners of his mouth were soaked with blood.
Guan Ping recovered from his dizziness. He felt that his dignity had been humiliated like never before. In his anger, he forgot about Yan Liang's threat. He opened his bloody mouth and cursed: "Yan thief, you cruel man"
, if you dare, kill me."
"Kill you, huh, that will be easier for you." Yan Liang sneered, winked at Zhou Cang, and shouted: "Why are you still standing there? Slap me again!"
Zhou Cang's eyes were bloodshot, he rolled up both sleeves, and his thick-mouthed arms were swung from side to side. His big slaps were slapped, and the sound was as loud as a wet whip hitting the stone slabs.
At the beginning, Guan Ping still held on to his arrogance. He endured the pain and continued to curse. Every word became more vicious.
But after more than twenty slaps, Guan Ping was slapped until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, blood spurted out of his mouth, and his mouth was also drained.
The so-called dignity is still not worth the physical pain.
Finally, Guan Ping couldn't bear the severe pain on his face, and the arrogance in his chest was wiped away bit by bit by the slaps. After another weak curse, he finally closed his mouth.
Are you crazy? Humph. I will slap you until you dare not be crazy.
Seeing Guan Ping shut up, Yan Liang's face flashed with joy, and he winked at Zhou Cang, signaling him to drag Guan Ping out quickly and cut off his arm.
Zhou Cang didn't know how to do it himself this time, so he ordered his troops to come forward and drag Guan Ping down.
"Wait, wait!" Guan Ping, who had a bad mouth, shouted urgently, "Yan Liang, you are the leader of this party. Do you have such a big heart to use such means to deal with a prisoner?"
Guan Ping's arrogance finally disappeared, his words became softer, and he actually used provoking methods to flatter Yan Liang secretly.
A disdainful sneer appeared at the corner of Yan Liang's mouth.
Yan Liang could now see that the so-called loyalty of the Guan family and his son was actually mostly blown out by future generations.
In the past history, Guan Yu lost Jingzhou and was ashamed to meet Liu Bei. He was captured by Sun Quan and his dignity was completely ruined.
If Guan Yu is really that loyal, according to his character, he should choose to commit suicide in order to gain fame.
But why did Guan Yu and his son Guan Ping not commit suicide, but were willing to be prisoners for many days, and finally ordered their beheadings for Sun Quan?
There is only one answer, and that is that the Guan family and his son are as afraid of death as any other human being.
Now Guan Ping is beating around the bush and flattering him, which is the best ironclad evidence.
Seeing Yan Liang's sneer, Guan Ping thought that his provocation method had worked, and a hint of secret joy flashed in his eyes.
Just when Guan Ping was secretly rejoicing, thinking that he had escaped the disaster, Yan Liang's eyes suddenly focused, and cold murderous intent burst out.
"Do you think that I, like Liu Bei, are the kind of hypocritical people? Humph, little brat, I just don't have the grace to cut off your hand. What can you do?" In the sarcastic voice, Yan Liang waved his hand fiercely.
Without any further hesitation, several people carried Guan Ping up together.
"Yan Liang, you will regret it, you will definitely regret it..." Guan Ping was carried out of the tent with frightened shouts.
Immediately afterwards, a heart-breaking scream was heard.
Not a moment later, Zhou Cang returned to his tent and presented the wooden box containing the bloody severed arm.
Yan Liang nodded slightly, with a look of satisfaction on his face, and then ordered the wooden box to be found for a captive of the Yan army and sent it to Guan Yu, who was on his way back to Xuzhou in the north.
After dealing with Guan Ping, the next thing we have to face is how to break through Pengcheng.
Although Guan Ping was captured alive, there were still Liao Hua and five thousand elite Yan troops in Pengcheng. Such a force, relying on the strength of Pengcheng, cannot be underestimated.
What's more, Yan Liang's expedition to the east was so fast that the large-scale siege equipment had not been transported in time, and there were no sharp weapons to help. It was obviously unrealistic to conquer Pengcheng in a short period of time.
If they can't attack Pengcheng quickly, Guan Yu's reinforcements will arrive soon. Liu Bei in the Central Plains will definitely take action when he learns the news.
Then, what was originally a successful raid would put Yan Liang, who was stationed under the city, into an unfavorable situation.
"Yuan Zhi, do you have any good ideas on how to get to Pengcheng quickly?" Yan Liang turned his attention to Xu Shu.
At this time, Xu Shu had already closed his eyes and meditated for a long time. When he heard Yan Liang's question, he opened his eyes.
There was already a bit of confidence shining in his deep eyes.
"Pengcheng is strong and cannot be fought with force. From this point of view, we can only use a small plan." Xu Shu said with a mysterious smile.
…
Three days later, the setting sun set in the west and night fell.
At the east gate of Pengcheng, Liao Hua stood with his sword in hand, looking eagerly to the east.
After being lost in thought for a long time, Liao Hua shook his head and sighed softly.
Pengcheng has been besieged for several days. The people in the city are panicked, the morale of the troops is unstable, and the situation is not optimistic.
Facing the vast enemy outside the city, Liao Hua had no choice but to hold on to the city and look to the east all day long, hoping to see Guan Yu's reinforcements arrive.
"The young general was captured by Yan's thieves. I don't know what's going on now," Liao Hua sighed again.
Seeing that the sun had set and the distance was getting darker, Liao Hua was helpless and planned to go down to the city to rest.
Just as he took his front foot forward, a soldier behind him shouted: "General, look, there seems to be a fire over there at Chu Camp!"
Liao Hua was shocked and hurriedly turned back, lying on the side of the city wall and looking far into the distance.
In his field of vision, he could indeed see the line of the back camp of the Chu army's east camp, with firelight flying and faint dust and mist rising.
In that situation, it was as if a troop of soldiers and horses suddenly attacked the rear of the Chu army.
Liao Hua's expression perked up, and a hint of surprise suddenly flashed through his heart.
Continuing to look far away, I saw that the dust mist broke through the Chu camp's defense line and headed straight for Pengcheng.
In the dim light of the evening, Liao Hua finally saw clearly that it was indeed a troop of thousands of soldiers and horses. Moreover, this troop of soldiers and horses were all wearing the uniforms of their own army, and they also carried the banner of "Guan".
"General Guan, it's General Guan's reinforcements that have arrived!" The soldiers on the left and right were so surprised that they all shouted excitedly.
Liao Hua was also overjoyed. He was finally looking forward to the arrival of reinforcements. He wanted to open the city gate on the spot and lead his army out to meet Guan Yu's reinforcements.
However, this thought flashed through his mind, and Liao Hua calmed down again.
"If General Guan wants to cooperate internally and externally, he will definitely send his agents to make an agreement with me in advance. How could he come without any warning? If this support army is the Chu army in disguise, it wants to lure me out of the city to fight, but it turns out that
how?"
Liao Hua was suspicious, so he did not immediately order to go out of the city. Instead, he stayed in the city and watched, wanting to see what happened.
Not long after, the Yan army had reached the front of the city, and several more Chu troops came from all directions, trying to prevent the Yan army from entering the city.
Liao Hua raised his eyes and looked into the distance, but saw not far from the city, a red-faced and long-bearded general, fighting fiercely with several Chu generals, and he was able to defeat three generals without losing.
With such a description, such power, and the skill of the sword in his hand, in this world, besides Guan Yu, who else could be there.
"It's General Guan who is here in person. Hurry, open the city gate. I'm going to rush out of the city to meet General Guan." At this time, Liao Hua no longer had any doubts.
The city gate creaked open and the suspension bridge was lowered. The excited Liao Hua led more than two thousand Yan troops and rushed out of Pengcheng like the wind.
The Chu army outside the city seemed to be unprepared for the sudden attack of the Pengcheng defenders. The army was in chaos for a while. Thousands of Chu troops spread out like waves and were easily driven away by Liao Hua's army.
Liao Hua led his army to massacre, and rushed straight to where Guan Yu was, shouting: "General Yunchang, Liao Hua is here to help you!"
Amidst the loud shouts, Liao Hua raised his horse and wielded his sword, killing several enemy cavalry and running straight towards Guan Yu's location.
When the Chu generals who besieged Guan Yu saw that Guan Yu had reinforcements coming to kill him, they seemed to be frightened and abandoned the battle one after another.
In an instant, Liao Hua was already a few steps away.
After being surrounded for several days, Liao Hua, who was worried, could finally see Guan Yu again today. At this time, his face was filled with ecstasy.
However, when Guan Yu, who was standing with his back turned, turned around, the surprise on Liao Hua's face turned to stone in an instant.
Although the "Guan Yu" in front of me also has a red face, although he also has a long beard, and although he also wields a sword, he is not "Guan Yu" at all.
When he was on the city just now, the light was dim, so Liao Hua mistook the general for Guan Yu based on his superficial appearance.
But now when he looked closer, Liao Hua realized that the Guan Yu in front of him only resembled him in spirit.
Just when Liao Hua was stunned for a moment, a ferocious sneer appeared on the face of the fake Guan Yu.
He slowly raised his hand and pulled it gently, and all the long beard on his chin flew off.
I have discharged a lot of stones in the past few days. I will take a picture in the afternoon to see if all the stones have been discharged. I hope that the hateful stones will not torture the captain anymore. (To be continued. Mobile phone users please read it.)
