Yan Liang stood tall and looked coldly before jumping into the fire pit.
That fire pit was exactly where Yan Liang dared thousands of people to challenge him.
Just last night, as soon as Guan Feng arrived, Yan Liang ordered Zhou Cang to lead more than a hundred soldiers to the south gate of Tan City in the dark, and under the cover of night, he hid out of sight of the Yan army at the top of the city.
, quietly digging such a shallow trench.
The ditch was filled in advance with flammable materials such as hay, saltpeter, and kerosene." "Novel.
Today, Yan Liang angered Guan Yu by playing with "Guan Feng", and then used his seemingly thousands of troops to make Guan Yu feel relieved and boldly lead the army.
But Yan Liang suddenly gave Guan Yu this ditch of fire.
Guan Yu, who was running wildly, could not stop and was about to crash into the raging fire ditch. As long as his body fell into the fire ditch, he would be burned into a burning man in an instant.
The dignified young lady with a beautiful beard was about to be burned alive by the fire in a comical and tragic way.
At this moment, Guan Yu didn't have time to think too much. He clamped his horse's belly tightly in an attempt to drive the horse and jumped over the fire ditch with all his strength.
Guan Yu was afraid that the war horse was afraid of fire, so he used the edge of the sword in his hand to lightly cut the horse's buttocks. The pained war horse forgot about the fear of fire, and while hissing in pain, he leaped towards the horse.
, passing over the fire ditch.
However, Yan Liang had been waiting for Guan Yu to jump up and shouted: "Where is Zifeng? Why don't you shoot Guan Yu for me!"
Zhou Cang, who had been ready for a long time, had already aimed the rocket and left the string with a "boom". Like a red rainbow, it headed straight for Guan Yu.
That rocket flew away and shot directly towards Guan Yu's face.
The men and horses leaped forward, and Guan Yu, who was in mid-air, saw the flowing fire coming, and had no way to use his strength to block it with his sword.
Seeing the rocket roaring close to him, Guan Yu was frightened and could only twist his neck in an attempt to avoid the fatal arrow.
Guan Yu did it, and the flaming arrow flew past Guan Yu's chin.
However, although Guan Yu avoided the fatal blow, the flames of the rocket touched Guan Yu's beautiful beard on his chin.
In an instant, Guan Yu's chin burst into flames.
Guan Yu turned pale, and when his horse landed, he didn't even bother to stop the horse's hooves, and quickly used his sleeves to fight the fire on his chin.
Fortunately, Guan Yu reacted in time and after several pounces, the fire on his chin was finally put out.
But although the fire was extinguished, Guan Yu's proud long beard was completely burned away. Only a charred black beard remained.
The man with the beautiful beard turned into a man with a short beard in the blink of an eye because of a rocket.
More than a thousand officers and soldiers from all over the Chu army witnessed this funny and thrilling scene. They all burst into laughter looking at the embarrassed look of Guan Yu without his beard.
Even Yan Liang, although it was a pity that he could not kill Guan Yu with one arrow, but when he saw the embarrassment of Guan Yu with his beard burnt off, his heart was extremely happy and he couldn't help laughing wildly.
But Guan Feng, who was in Yan Liang's arms, after witnessing his father's thrilling scene, felt extremely ashamed of Guan Yu's embarrassed look with his beard burned.
However, Guan Feng, who has now succumbed to Yan Liang, has no choice but to close his eyes, unable to bear to see the ugly appearance of his father Guan Yu, and feeling sorry for himself in his heart.
Guan Yu, who finally stopped his mount, heard the Chu army on the opposite side laughing wantonly. At the first moment, he could not understand what was going on.
Immediately, Guan Yu suddenly thought of Shime and hurriedly reached out to touch Ziji's chin.
This touch didn't matter, Guan Yu accidentally discovered that Ziji's chin, which was originally a beautiful beard, had turned into bare grass.
In Guan Yu's mind, a picture of Ziji with a beard suddenly appeared. Guan Yu, who had always paid great attention to Ziji's appearance, felt that burning his beard made him even more ugly and embarrassing than taking off his pants.
In an instant, endless shame and anger rushed into his chest like an erupting volcano.
In the blink of an eye, Guan Yu's face turned as angry as an eggplant from red to purple, and the green veins on his face were about to burst.
At this moment, Guan Yu, who was greatly humiliated, could only wish to rush into the enemy formation and fight Yan Liangjue to the death.
But soon, Guan Yu's shameful and angry cry was shattered by the screams one after another behind him.
Guan Yu suddenly turned around and looked around, only to see countless Yan Jun cavalry behind them. Unable to stop their momentum, they fell into the fire ditch and were burned to ashes in an instant.
Although more Yan soldiers stopped in time, they were pushed into the fire pit by their companions rushing from behind.
Along the line of the fire ditch, thousands of Yan troops were wailing and screaming in the fierce fire.
On the other side of the fire ditch, the Yan army, who were lucky enough not to be affected by the fire, were fighting against each other and were stuck in a panic.
The 10,000-strong army fell into a state of extreme chaos.
This tragic scene of his own army put Guan Yu into panic in the blink of an eye. At this time, he did not want to kill Yan Liang for revenge. He only wanted to escape from this dangerous situation as soon as possible and escape back to Tancheng.
However, since Yan Liang set up this good show, how could he allow Guan Yu to end easily?
Just when Yan Liang was indifferently admiring Yu's embarrassment, suddenly, the sounds of killing were heard from the south, south, east and west sides of Tancheng.
But they saw Huang Zhong and Gan Ning on the west and east flanks each leading 10,000 elite troops, bypassing the fire ditch several hundred steps long, heading straight for the south gate of Tan City, intending to block the return path of the 10,000 Yan troops.
At the same time, Wen Chou also led 10,000 Chu troops from the southern camp to attack Guan Yu's army from the south.
The three generals who had received Yan Liang's instructions in advance saw that the fire was starting in the south of Tancheng. They immediately followed the previous agreement and mobilized all their troops to rush towards them.
Guan Yu was shocked, turned his horse around, and galloped westward along the fire ditch.
The fire ditch was not long for several hundred steps. Guan Yu rushed to the west end of the fire ditch, bypassed the wall of fire, hurriedly scolded his frightened soldiers, and retreated towards the south gate.
When the defenders on the top of the city saw their troops escaping back, they immediately wanted to open the city gates and lower the drawbridge to allow Guan Yu and the frightened army of less than ten thousand to retreat into the city.
At this moment, Lu Su frowned deeply and shouted: "Don't open the city gate!"
Sergeant Zuoyou was taken aback, and a junior colonel said anxiously: "The enemy troops are right behind us. If we don't open the city gate, we will kill General Guan and those thousands of brothers."
"Open your eyes and take a look. The bandit soldiers are approaching. If you open the city gate now, the bandit soldiers will follow you and rush in. We will all be dead when the time comes!" Lu Su pointed to the outside of the city and shouted loudly.
.
All the soldiers looked up and saw that the situation was exactly as Lu Su said. If they opened the city gate, Guan Yu's troops would not have time to withdraw, and the Chu army would follow them. By then, the city gate would not be closed, and the entire Tan city would be destroyed.
It will be defeated by the Chu army.
Seeing this situation, all the defenders stopped trying to open the door, and all they could do was stare anxiously.
Guan Yu, who was at the bottom of the city, had already rushed to the moat. Seeing that the city gate was not open, he couldn't help but roared: "Lu Zijing, open the city gate quickly. I will go in. Open the door quickly!"
Facing Guan Yu's roar, Lu Su remained indifferent. He only replied loudly: "General Guan, you have always put the overall interests of the country on your lips. If I open the city gate now, Tancheng may fall because of it. For the sake of the country,
For the overall situation, now I have no choice but to sacrifice you, General Guan. I ask General Guan for your understanding."
"Lu Su, you" Guan Yu was extremely shocked and angry, never expecting that Lu Su would dare to do this.
Although he was extremely shocked and angry, Lu Su kept saying "the overall interests of the country were the most important", but Guan Yu, who was known as the country and could even shoot his own son, had no way to refute.
As for the other generals in the city, although there were many old subordinates who had followed Guan Yu for many years, due to Guan Yu's arrogant temperament, he never took them seriously. These people had long been resentful, and now they became indifferent.
The city gate was not open, and the besiegers behind him on three sides were approaching. Guan Yu was almost at a loss to make a move.
With no choice, Guan Yu had no choice but to scold Lu Su, then decisively led his frightened soldiers and horses towards the northwest.
Yan Liang clearly saw everything that happened at the south gate of Tancheng, but this time it was a bit beyond his expectation.
Yan Liang originally wanted to take advantage of the Yan army's retreat to have the army follow them and attack Tan City in one fell swoop, but what he didn't expect was that Lu Su could be so "righteous and awe-inspiring" and dare not let Guan Yu enter the city.
"What a good Lu Su. Jiangdong has been destroyed for many years, and you are still able to survive until now. You are indeed very powerful."
When Yan Liang was feeling emotional, he hurriedly changed the king's order and ordered the attacking armies to attack Tancheng instead to besiege and kill Guan Yu.
Although the order was issued, it seemed a little late due to the changes at this moment.
Originally, Gan Ning's army on the west route only had the mentality of following the enemy and entering Tancheng. However, they did not expect that Guan Yu failed to enter the city and instead led his army to counterattack him.
Gan and Ning's army was poorly prepared. Facing Guan Yu who was desperately trying to survive, they were unable to form a formation to block the attack. The two armies collided head-on and had a melee with each other. Guan Yu led more than 3,000 remaining soldiers to rush out of the rebel army and turned to the north.
Ran away wildly.
The Chu army had not implemented an iron barrel siege on Tancheng, and there was still a large gap between the camps. When the incident happened, Yan Liang had no time to mobilize troops to intercept Guan Yu, so he gave Guan Yu a chance to pass through the northern camp.
interspersed in the past.
Although it was a little regretful to escape Guan Yu, Yan Liang's plan was half successful when he was able to trap and kill 10,000 Yan troops and force the Yan army's commander Guan Yu to escape.
So Yan Liang ignored Guan Yu and only mobilized troops and horses to surround and kill the nearly 7,000 Yan troops that Guan Yu had abandoned.
At dusk, the massacre finally ended.
Outside the gate of Tancheng, corpses were strewn all over the field and blood flowed into rivers.
On the top of the city, they silently watched their comrades being slaughtered, but the more than 20,000 Yan troops were indifferent. Despite Lu Su's order, only one person dared to go out of the city to rescue them.
Lu Su, who was on the top of the city, watched the Chu army retreat happily after the killing. He felt as if he was exhausted. He let out a long breath and secretly felt lucky to have survived this fatal disaster.
While Lu Su was secretly rejoicing, the generals around him felt cold in their hearts.
Those officers and soldiers of the Yan Army were secretly thinking that if General Lu could not save those 10,000 comrades today, then tomorrow, when Ruguo Ziji was in danger, would he be treated as an abandoned son by General Lu and be ruthless?
