Previous page Return to Catalog Next page
- Along the city line, almost all the Yan troops were still in shock.
After living to such an old age, this was the first time they saw a father shoot his son with his own hands.
??????????????????? The person who did such a thing of "poisoning a tiger and eating its seeds" was actually General Guan Yunchang, who they regarded as a god general.
The astonished troops could not believe their eyes.
The frightened soldiers of the Yan army were finally awakened by Guan Yu's angry shouts. At this time, they no longer had the fear of accidentally injuring Guan Ping. Thousands of crossbowmen began to fire arrows like crazy at the Chu army that was approaching the city.
Yan Liang, who was two hundred steps away, did not know that Guan Yu had shot Guan Ping. He only saw the hesitant enemy on the top of the city suddenly letting go of their restraints and firing arrows at the attacking troops wantonly.
Although he didn¡¯t know the truth, Yan Liang had some vague guesses in his mind.
A moment later, a cavalry galloped from the front army and arrived directly in front of Yan Liang's horse.
"For your information, Your Majesty, Guan Yu shot Guan Ping to death with his own arrows. The enemy's arrows at the top of the city were too dense. General Huang asked Your Majesty to tell you whether to continue the attack."
Guan Yu shot his son with his own hands!
When the Chu generals present heard the news, as enemies, they couldn't help but be surprised.
"These veteran generals who roamed the battlefield and killed many people really couldn't believe that the mighty Guan Yu could do such a vicious thing.
"I didn't expect that Yun Chang could disown all his relatives. Alas." Zhang Liao, who had a friendship with Guan Yu, couldn't help but shook his head and sighed. Those words made him seem to have misjudged the person.
Although Yan Liang did this to Guan Yu. He was a little surprised, but he didn't react as much as others.
Because Yan Liang did this to Guan Yu. Already prepared.
As the saying goes, those who are close to Mo are evil. Liu Bei could abandon his wife several times. Guan Yu, who was a brother-in-law with Liu Bei, for the so-called overall situation, how could it be impossible for him to shoot his own son?
What's more, Guan Ping is just Guan Yu's adopted son, after all, he is not his biological flesh and blood.
"Your Majesty, the enemy city's arrows are too dense. It seems that Guan Yu has been prepared for a long time. I think that if we continue to attack today, we will only lose the soldiers. It is better to withdraw our troops and make plans later." Pang Tong beside him added.
Yan Liangshen thought so, raised his whip and said: "Pass the order, the whole army will retreat temporarily."
The sound of ringing gold sounded. The order to retreat was given.
Former Military Department. Huang Zhong decisively issued the order to retreat. The 30,000 Yan army soldiers who had just approached the enemy city began to retreat in an orderly manner under the rain of arrows.
Yan Liang looked at the enemy from afar and sneered: "Guan Yu, let you taste the pain of killing your son first. I will take care of you in the future."
After saying that, Yan Liang turned his horse around. Walk away.
Tens of thousands of Yan army troops slowly withdrew their troops and returned to the camp. In a short time, no one was left.
The only things left in front of the city were the towering opposite tower and the dead body of Guan Ping, who had a sharp arrow pierced through his chest.
At the top of the city, Guan Yu watched the Chu army retreat coldly. His tense nerves finally relaxed and he breathed a secret sigh of relief.
But when he saw the building opposite and the body of his son left at the top of the city, his brows deepened again.
Guan Yu would rather not have his son's body. He knew very well that Yan Liang deliberately kept Guan Ping's body in order to make Guan Yu suffer and embarrass him.
"I wonder if father can be merciful and allow me to collect my brother's body?" Guan Feng stepped forward to plead with a choked voice, with a hint of complaint in his tone.
Hearing his daughter's hint of resentment made Guan Yu's heart ache.
He frowned slightly, turned around and walked down the city without saying a word.
The city gate was wide open and the suspension bridge was lowered. Guan Yu personally led a group of troops and rode out of the city, heading straight for the lonely building opposite.
When they came to the opposite building, the soldiers did not need Guan Yu to explain. They rushed up to the opposite building and carefully lowered the body of Major General Guan Ping into Guan Yu's hands.
Guan Yu held Guan Ping's broken-arm corpse in his arms and looked at the arrow in his chest that he had shot in with his own hands. His red face was filled with sadness and anger.
"Ping'er, don't worry, Yan Liang, the dog thief, brutally killed you. If my father doesn't repay this revenge for you, I will never be a human being!"
Guan Yu was angry and swearing every word, as if the person who killed Guan Ping was Yan Liang.
The soldiers on the left and right seemed to be infected by Guan Yu's grief and anger. They suddenly forgot that it was Guan Yu who shot Guan Ping himself, and they all began to curse Yan Liangshi angrily.
In this way, Guan Yu held Guan Ping's body in his arms and returned to Xiapi City sadly with the fire of grief and anger.
Amidst the indignant curses, Guan Feng remained silent and shed tears silently.
Thinking of his father's determination to shoot Guan Pingping, and then looking at Guan Yu's sad and angry look now, but for some reason, Guan Feng's heart was not moved at all.
¡¡
To the west of Xiapi City is the Chu army¡¯s camp.
Night has fallen, and in the brightly lit tents, the civil servants and generals of the Chu State are still lamenting Guan Yu's "righteousness to destroy relatives."
Everyone had to admit that the scene of Guan Yu shooting his son before the battle shocked them too much. If it were them, they would never have such a hard-hearted heart.
Yan Liang sneered and said: "The beautiful bearded man is a god-like figure. What gods do is not something we ordinary people can think of. Instead of lamenting Guan Yu, you should think about how to quickly defeat Xiapi City."
Only then did the thoughts of all the civil and military personnel turn back to the main topic from their feelings about Guan Yu.
How to defeat Xiapi quickly is indeed a difficult problem.
Although Xiapi City is not a fortified city in the world, its defenses are quite strong. Moreover, there are still 20,000 soldiers in the city, and there are veteran generals like Guan Yu leading the army. If you want to attack by force, you must rush to control the thunder chariot on the spot. Wait for heavy siege equipment and a life-threatening attack.
But the problem now is that Liu Bei has reached reconciliation with Cao Cao, and is now leading an army of 100,000 people, traveling all night and night. Obviously, they do not have enough time to calmly build the Thunderbolt Chariot.
The elites of Chu State in the tent all frowned, thinking hard about strategies to break the city.
Suddenly, Pang Tong's closed eyes opened, and there was something strange in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, I have a plan to defeat Xiapi City and defeat 200,000 soldiers." Pang Tong said confidently.
Victory against 200,000 soldiers!
Yan Liang's spirit perked up, and suddenly he seemed to have guessed eighty-nine points.
At this time, Xu Shu's eyes also lit up and he said happily: "Shi Yuan, is your plan to conquer the water of Yisi?"
"That's right, my plan is to use the water from Yisi to flood Xiapi." Pang Tong replied with a smile.
Sure enough, this meter.
A cold and sly smile also appeared on the corner of Yan Liang's mouth.
Xiapi City is located in the hinterland of Xuzhou, with convenient water and land access. It is bordered by Yishui River to the west and Surabaya River to the south. These two water systems are the two largest water systems that run through Xuzhou.
When Cao Cao defeated Lu Bu, he used Guo Jia's plan to cross two rivers to flood Xia Pi, which eventually forced Lu Bu's army in the city to have civil strife and captured Pi without a fight.
The current situation is so similar to that of the past. With Cao Cao's ready-made successful battle example in front of him, how could Yan Liang not learn from it.
Yan Liang, full of murderous intent, readily accepted Pang Tong's plan.
As soon as it got dark that day, Yan Liang ordered all the troops besieging the city to move to the high ground near Xiapi. At the same time, he dispatched 20,000 soldiers and horses to dig the dams of Yisi River day and night.
Xiapi City is quite close to the two rivers. You can almost see the two rivers from the top of the city. How could such a big movement of the Chu army not attract Guan Yu's attention.
Guan Yu soon realized that Yan Liang was trying to follow Cao Cao's old plan of crossing two rivers to flood Xia Pi.
Guan Yu had personally experienced the battle at Xiapi. He had witnessed the tragic scene of Xiapi being flooded. Now seeing that he was about to make the same mistake as Lu Bu, how could Guan Yu not be frightened and anxious.
Therefore, Guan Yu, realizing the seriousness of the situation, immediately sent soldiers from the three armies and tens of thousands of people in the city to carry earth and stones to fill in and strengthen the surrounding city walls.
At the same time, Guan Yu took advantage of the night and repeatedly sent small groups of cavalry to harass the Chu army's dike digging construction site in an attempt to delay the progress of the dike breach.
Yan Liang was well prepared for this. He had ordered Zhang Liao, Wen Chou and others to lead their own troops to patrol the river embankment construction site. He successfully defeated Guan Yu's several harassments and ensured the progress of the project.
A few days later, in the early morning, after ten thousand soldiers worked non-stop during the starry night, a hole of dozens of feet was finally dug on the east bank of Yishui River.
It was the rainy season at this time, and when the river was swollen, the dam broke and the river surged out, rolling towards Xiapi City like an overwhelming force.
In the afternoon, a hole of more than twenty feet was dug on the north bank of Surabaya in the south. The rolling water, like thousands of beasts, roared and rushed towards Xiapi City.
The rolling water rushed towards Xiapi City in the lowland from all directions, and it took less than half a day.Therefore, except for the higher east side of Xiapi City, the other three sides were flooded into a vast ocean.
Although Guan Yu made preparations in advance and reinforced the city wall, his efforts seemed so insignificant in the face of the power of nature.
The vast ocean of water soon poured into the city through gaps everywhere. Within two days of flooding the city, the water in Xiapi City was already several feet deep, and several city walls collapsed under the water.
The house was leaking due to continuous rain. When the flood flooded the city, there were several heavy rains, which further aggravated the flood situation.
The soldiers and civilians in Xiapi City were all soaked in water at this time, and soon their hearts were depressed and they were complaining.
While Guan Yu and his Yan army were suffering from flooding, Yan Liang and his army had moved to the high ground to watch the flooded Xiapi.
On the top of the city, Guan Yu stood there stiffly, looking around at the vast ocean inside and outside the city, with endless sadness on his red face.
Guan Yu looked up at the sky where the heavy rain was pouring, and he sighed in his heart: "Does it mean that I, the great Guan Yu, really want to be trapped and die in Xiapi City like Lu Bu's servant with the third surname?"
The heavy rain soon wet Guan Yu and turned him into a drowned chicken. (To be continued. Mobile phone users please read here.) - Didn't finish reading?
