As Liao Li expected, Zhuge Liang sent people to intercept along the way and adopted a strategy of combining siege and attacking the heart. When he arrived in Yongchang County, there were less than 10,000 soldiers under Guan Yu's command. When he arrived in Jiaozhi, the number of people was sharply reduced to more than 5,000, and his morale was extremely low, and someone would escape at any time.

At this time, almost all local officials in Shu Kingdom received the order from the Shu Lord Liu Chan. To be precise, it should be Zhuge Liang's order to encircle and block Guan Yu's army. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei could not take action against these ordinary soldiers. After all, they were all loyal to their duties and were not at fault. They could kill them with one knife, but who would guard the place? Who would govern the people? Shu Kingdom was short of talents, and if they were killed, it would be even more difficult to support them. Therefore, even if they defected, they could only escape blindly and could not kill them.

This naturally made it more difficult for Guan Yu and the others to escape. The local officials were originally intimidated by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's courage and had some concerns, but now they saw that they were just running away without resisting, and their courage gradually became stronger and led their troops to encircle them.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei led their men to Wuling County after a difficult breakthrough. As long as they cross Wuling and the riverside, they could cross the Yangtze River and go to Jingzhou. However, they did not expect that at this last moment, Guan Yu was surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, and at this time there were only five hundred personal soldiers left by his side.

Guan Yu didn't want to fight at first, and the difference in military strength is now huge. This time even he felt deeply helpless.

"Since things have developed to this point today, we might as well give up. Anyway, even if we go to Chang'an, I don't know how to do it? Should we join forces with outsiders to attack my territory? If I do this, how can I be worthy of my elder brother? But if this is not the case, Zhuge Liang will definitely be tyrant of Shu, and Chan'er will become a puppet like the son of today."

Guan Yu sighed and smiled bitterly.

At this time, Liao Li shouted: "At this time, how can the general give up easily? Although the lord is a puppet, Zhuge Liang is afraid of the general outside and dare not treat the emperor too much. If the general gives up, even if Zhuge Liang replaces him, who can restrain him? Isn't this exactly the same relationship with the King of Qin and his son today? What's more, I said before that if the general surrenders, not only you and me, but also our families will find it difficult to keep them. In addition, those soldiers who were forced to surrender due to helplessness will probably be cleansed. In this way, how much fighting power will be left in our country? By that time, even if the King of Qin does not send troops, Shu will probably not last long!"

At this time, Zhang Fei also spoke, "Second brother, Liao Li, no, Mr. Liao is right. We cannot let Zhuge Villager succeed in his treacherous plan, and we cannot let the foundation that the elder brother has worked hard to create to others. What's more, by then, not only the elder brother's foundation is gone, I'm afraid even Chan'er's life cannot be saved. We can't save our elder brother's foundation. Brother, let me tell the truth. Anyway, Qin Gong is strong, and it will be a matter of time before the fall of Shu Kingdom is over. But if Chan'er has any accident, the elder brother cannot even keep his bloodline. In the future, when we are in the nine springs, what kind of face will we have to meet our elder brother?"

"But it is indeed difficult for us to escape now. Now the enemy is surrounded by 20 times the number of our army. Apart from our two Peace and Huo Jun, who can escape? These are brothers who have passed through our lives and death. Could it be that we will give up on them like this?" Guan Yu pointed at Liao Li and his surrounding soldiers and sighed.

But Liao Li heard Liao Li shouting: "Li has said before that once there is a critical situation, the generals don't have to worry about our burdens, and they can break out. As the saying goes, keep the green mountains without worrying about the lack of firewood. As long as you can break out, Zhuge Liang will be afraid and our family will not be in danger of life. In this way, even if we die, it will be worth it. If the general wants to die, we will really die with our eyes!"

"Mr. Liao is right!" At this time, I saw Guan Yu's personal soldiers captain Zhang Heng said, "General, you can still remember our lives at this time, which shows your kindness, but we cannot drag you down. Just as Mr. Liao said, as long as you can escape, even if we die, it is worth it. At least our family still has hope of survival. If you can't escape, even if we can survive, we can only live in guilt in the future. There will be no meaning in this life, we can only be a walking corpse."

"Since that's the case, I'm sorry to everyone. Mr. Liao, I, Guan, is the one who is most sorry for me, is actually you. Alas, I clearly said that I would live and die with you, but now I can only give up you. Please rest assured. If I return to Shu Kingdom in the future, I will definitely treat your family well! I will treat your son as my biological son."

Guan Yu bowed to Liao Li and said with a heavy face.

It turned out that after Liao Li "fighted" Liu Bei, in order to avoid arousing suspicion from all over the Shu Kingdom, he also married and had children in Shu Kingdom. Now his son is eight years old. He knew that he was about to leave Shu Kingdom, but in order to realize his lord's plan, he would not arouse suspicion, but he also hardened his heart to keep his beloved wife and son in Chengdu.

And this is also the thing he is most worried about this time.

However, at this time, Liao Li didn't care about the safety of his wife and children. He knew that Zhuge Liang would never treat his family in order to attract people's hearts, so he bowed to Guan Yu and said, "It's enough to have the words of a general. Haha, I can't say that the officials can escape by chance this time. General, don't be so pessimistic."

Guan Yu just thought Liao Li was comforting him, smiled bitterly and hugged his fists, then got on the horse and led Zhang Fei, Guan Ping, Huo Jun and others to fight out, but left hundreds of personal soldiers and civil servants represented by Liao Li.

"Soldiers, in order to ensure that General Guan and the others break out, we should not just be idle, and try our best to buy time for them to kill them!"
