Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Guan Yu had some hope for Liu Bei's Shangbao, but unexpectedly, Liu Bei wished for his death.  [This article comes from]

    Yiji stayed in Yecheng for more than ten days. During these ten days, the treatment of him by the Han Dynasty dropped sharply, and his food and accommodation conditions were greatly reduced. Yiji asked to see Liu Bei several times, but was rejected by the Han Dynasty.  Officials refused.

    Liu Bei¡¯s move was obviously to force him to leave his country.

    On that day, Yi Ji in the residence received news from Li Yang that Yan Liang had issued a secret order to leave Yecheng immediately.

    Yi Ji then set off that day, leaving Yecheng and heading south.

    As soon as Yi Ji left, Liu Bei naturally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Guan Yu's matter was finally over and he could unload a heavy burden.

    However, not long after Yi Ji left, Liu Bei received information from Xi Zuo from the south that shocked him even more.

    The State of Chu actually succeeded in building a weir at the mouth of Qishui, and successfully diverted the Qishui River into the Baigou River. A waterway from south to north leading to Yecheng was thus formed.

    Hearing the news, Liu Bei was shocked and summoned Zhuge Liang to the palace for discussion.

    As soon as he saw Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei complained: "Prime Minister, didn't you say that Yan Thief's construction of a weir to divert the Qishui River was just wishful thinking? Now that Yan Thief's conspiracy has succeeded, what else do you have to say?"

    "Your Majesty, I never thought that Yan Thief could actually" Zhuge Liang was also shocked and couldn't believe this astonishing fact.

    "You have to believe it even if you don't believe it. This is the fact. If the Yan bandits' water channel is completed, food and grass will flow northward unimpeded. Our army's plan of attacking with light cavalry will be useless. How can I stop the Chu bandits' attack?" Liu Bei was angry.  asked.

    Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan again. He tried his best to suppress his shock, his thoughts were racing, and he was thinking about ways to defeat the enemy.

    After a while.  Zhuge Liang regained his composure and said calmly: "Although the Yan thief has built a waterway, the city of Ye is not as big as Liyang. The land is bigger and the city is wider, and there are many cities with forts and horns around. If the Yan thief wants to break Ye City, he must clear out the surrounding cities. Our army only has  We need to defend step by step and gradually consume the morale of the Yan thief. Then our army can take advantage of the opportunity to counterattack and drive him out of Hebei in one fell swoop."

    Zhuge Liang spoke eloquently and gave Liu Bei a plan. In fact, this plan was plain.  He used attrition tactics and kept attrition with Yan Liang until the Chu army was exhausted and Yan Liang had to retreat.

    Although Zhuge Liang's plan is not a clever one, it seems that it is Liu Bei's only way to deal with the enemy.

    Liu Bei weighed the situation again and again, but found no other solution.  Zhuge Liang had no choice but to adopt Zhuge Liang's strategy.

    On the same day, Liu Bei issued an edict to surround Yecheng with Shexian, Anyang, Changle, Linshui cities, and fortifications everywhere.  The generals of the army are not allowed to take a step back without authorization. They must all defend the city for him. They must ensure that the city is alive and the people are alive, and the city is dead and the people are dead.

    When Liu Bei was hurriedly deploying countermeasures.  To the south, along the line of Liyang, were the officers and soldiers of the Chu army.  After a month's rest, I finally set out on the journey again.

    Two hundred thousand troops gathered again, and soldiers and horses from all walks of life marched northward.

    By the Baigou River, Yan Liang was riding his horse slowly. In front of him and behind him was a long, endless team, marching slowly northward along the Baigou River.

    In the Baigou River, one transport ship after another, loaded with bags of grain and grass, sailed towards the north.

    On the left and right, groups of rangers were galloping back and forth, patrolling and alerting them to the surrounding situation.

    The flag of Da Chu covers the sky and the sun, and is magnificent.

    Yan Liang looked north, with a cold murderous intent flowing on his heroic face, and said in his heart: "Liu Bei, your good days have come to an end. Wash your ass and wait for me to blow your anus."

    While thinking, Yan Liang raised his whip and shouted: "Pass on my decree, the whole army will speed up the advance. I will reach the gates of Anyang City within two days."

    After the decree was passed down, the three armies moved quickly, their heavy and neat footsteps stirred up dust all over the sky, and the whole earth seemed to be trembling.

    Two days later, the 100,000-strong Chinese army commanded by Yan Liang took the lead in arriving at Anyang City.

    Anyang is located due south of Ye City. It is the strongest southern fortress in the defense line of Ye City built by Liu Bei.

    At this time, the defenders in Anyang City were Yuan Shao's old generals Jiao Chu and Zhang Nan, who led 5,000 infantry to guard the city.

    Jiao Chu was not a famous general, and five thousand soldiers and horses was not too many. However, because of the importance of Anyang City, Liu Bei began to reinforce the city last year, so that the walls of the city were thickened like Liyang.  More than twice as much.

    It is obviously unrealistic for Yan Liang to use city-breaking cannons to blast away such a solid city.

    Of course, Yan Liang can definitely use it.Due to the weakness of the city's few soldiers and horses, more than 100,000 troops surrounded the city on all sides. With the advantage of large numbers of troops, Anyang was forcibly captured.

    However, in this case, the soldiers will inevitably suffer great damage.

    In order to defend Ye City, Liu Bei built various barriers outside it. If Yan Liang had to pay huge casualties to capture each city, then before they could reach Ye City, the morale and morale of the Chu army would probably be reduced.  To be consumed.

    "Your Majesty, our army is now at its peak. Why not immediately order the siege on all sides and capture Anyang City in one fell swoop?" Veteran Huang Zhong added.

    "It is necessary to capture Anyang, but there is no need to besiege the city on all sides." A sneer appeared at the corner of Yan Liang's mouth.

    Huang Zhong was startled and said suspiciously: "The city of Anyang is strong, and there are at least five thousand defenders in the city. If we don't surround the city on all sides, I'm afraid we won't be able to take advantage of our large number of soldiers."

    Yan Liang smiled and said: "Don't worry, Han Sheng, I still have a weapon to break the city, it's just the time to use it."

    A weapon to destroy the city?

    Huang Zhong was at a loss for a moment, thinking that given the strength of Anyang, sharp weapons such as city-breaking cannons, Yuanrong's crossbows, and crossbow carts should be useless. There are no other sharp weapons in his army to break the city.

    At this time, Pang Tong's eyes moved, and he realized what Yan Liang meant. He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Liu Bei, a hypocritical man of benevolence and righteousness, it's time to disgust him again."

    "He who knows me is the Prime Minister."

    Yan Liang laughed, and then issued an order, ordering Huang Zhong to gather 30,000 troops south of Anyang and prepare to attack the city.

    The order was passed, the bells and drums of the army rang loudly, and the 30,000 elite troops of Zuoying came out of the camp in an orderly manner. Under the leadership of Huang Zhong, they were quickly arranged in the south of Anyang City.

    Generals Jiao Chu and Zhang Nan in the city got the news and rushed to the city head.  He led five thousand panic-stricken Han troops to the top of the city, preparing to meet the enemy.

    Huang Zhongjun's formation had been completed, but Yan Liang came to the prison car at the rear camp with a red rabbit horse on his crotch.

    In the iron prison car, Guan Yu, with disheveled hair, was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, motionless.

    After experiencing the humiliation of being slapped in the face and being spit and peed by the people of Liyang, Guan Yu's arrogant temper seemed to have calmed down a lot.  He also recognized the reality. He was a prisoner. If he continued to be crazy without knowing what was good for him, he would only bring humiliation to himself.

    So, Guan Yu simply did nothing but eat and sleep every day.  He just closed his eyes and rested his mind, waiting for the day when Liu Bei would save him.

    "Guan Yu, stop pretending and come out. I'm going to show you mercy today and let you come out to enjoy the air." There was no trace of sarcasm in Yan Liang's words.

    Guan Yu opened his eyes and saw Yan Liangshi.  He didn't curse anymore, he just glared at Yan Liang hatefully.

    When the prison door opened, Guan Yu didn't know what Yan Liang was thinking, and was secretly worried.  He sat there cross-legged and refused to move.

    Without saying a word, Zhou Cang got into the cage and dragged Guan Yu out, who was bound by iron chains.

    "Don't touch me. I can walk by myself." Guan Yu was forced to obey.

    Yan Liang snorted coldly.  He raised his whip and said, "Come here, send me the hussar generals of the Han Dynasty to the opposite building, so that the Han troops in Anyang can appreciate the honor of Guan Gong."

    Guan Yu's figure was shaken, and a trace of fear suddenly flashed through his heart.

    However, Yan Liang had already ridden his horse and galloped away, while Guan Yu was dragged outside the camp, carried up to an opposite building, and tied to a pillar.

    The opposite building, which was several feet high, was then slowly pushed towards the front of Huang Zhongjun's formation.

    The "sharp weapon" has arrived. Yan Liang pointed his whip and ordered Huang Zhongjun to start advancing towards Anyang City.

    The sound of "dong dong" war drums soared into the sky, and the opposite building where Guan Yu was bound was slowly pushed towards Anyang City, while 30,000 Chu troops followed the opposite building, approaching the south gate of Anyang in an orderly manner.  .

    In the blink of an eye, the mighty military formation has approached more than 130 steps from Anyang City. This distance is already close to the effective range of the crossbow.

    "Crossbowmen, prepare to release arrows, let me shoot the enemy soldiers hard!" Han general Zhang Nan shouted loudly.

    Along the line of the city, more than a thousand crossbowmen bent their bows and set arrows, all aiming outside the city.

    Zhang Nan raised the sword in his hand high, and with just one swing, thousands of sharp arrows would roar down.

    ¡°Wait a minute!¡± At the critical moment, Jiao Chu shouted and stopped Zhang Nan.

    "We can't wait any longer. The enemy is approaching the moat soon. If we don't fire arrows, it will be too late." Zhang Nan said anxiously.

    Jiao Chu pointed to the outside of the city, frowned and said, "Did you see that the man tied up on the opposite floor of the Chu army's building looks likeGeneral Guan Yunchang.  "

    Hearing these words, Zhang Nan was shocked, and he raised his eyes to look carefully.

    Sure enough, that red-faced man was not Guan Yu, who else could he be.

    Zhang Nan was immediately shocked, and the Han soldiers on the left and right were also shocked when they recognized that it was Guan Yu who was tied up upstairs.

    At this time, Huang Zhong at the bottom of the city had given the order, and five thousand Chu army crossbowmen fired at the top of the city first. Arrows like rain roared up.

    The Han army on the city had to huddle under the female wall, fearfully avoiding the Chu army's shooting.

    Taking advantage of the fact that the Han army was suppressed, Huang Zhong urged his soldiers to advance faster, and soon reached the moat and began to erect trench bridges one after another.

    The situation was critical, Zhang Nan shouted urgently: "If we don't launch arrows to launch a counterattack, the Chu thieves will successfully cross the moat."

    Jiao Chu was puzzled: "What kind of arrows did you shoot? That was General Hussar, Your Majesty's sworn brother. If these arrows were accidentally shot to death by mistake, and Your Majesty blamed him, you and I would be dead."  "

    Zhang Nan was shocked and felt extremely embarrassed. The two generals were unable to advance or retreat, and they didn't know what to do.

    Outside the city, looking at the Han army at the top of the city who did not dare to fight back, a sneer appeared on the corner of Yan Liang's mouth.

    Aren¡¯t you, Liu Bei, good at acting? You clearly abandoned Guan Yu, but you acted out your brotherly love for Guan Yu as if it were real.

    Very good, if you, Liu Bei, want to be a bitch and build a memorial arch, then I will force you to break up your reputation and let everyone in the Han Kingdom know that in your eyes, Guan Yu is nothing more than a sacrificial loser.
