Chapter 55

"Huh~~!" After leaving the boat, Liu Bei sighed happily. The whole two days and three nights, eating, drinking, defecation and urination were all spent on the boat. Liu Bei, a person born in the north and growing up in the north, and rarely contacted the boat, was quite uncomfortable, and he always felt restrained and uneasy. Fortunately, he finally ended up!

"Brother! The boatman said that from here, you can reach Shouchun City by going northeast for thirteen or four miles!" Guan Yu walked slowly to Liu Bei, and said with a long beard under his chin.

"Well..." Liu Bei thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Chang Yun, let's send someone to Shouchun to explore first. Before leaving, Yide once said that Cao Cao also sent a large group of troops to attack Shouchun, and he didn't know what the situation was going on in the city. If Shouchun had fallen, we could only find another place!"

After a pause, Liu Bei looked back at the soldiers who had not yet got off the ship, and said sadly: "In the battle of Runan, our army has been mostly damaged! It can no longer withstand major losses, so we must save these 3,000 soldiers!"

"Well! Most of the soldiers on the ship are weak and injured, so it is not suitable to go and explore the way... Let me go and have a walk, brother!" Guan Yu said in a deep voice.

"Second brother, if Shouchun is in a trap, wouldn't you go here to explore with your own eyes? No, no..." Liu Bei shook his head in disagreement and said.

"Brother, don't worry! I have a Red Bunny BMW. It only takes a moment to come and go to Shouchun. Even if the city is really lost, the Cao army can't stop me!" Guan Yu said with a faint smile, revealing unquestionable confidence in his words.

After thinking for a while, Liu Bei nodded slightly.

Seeing Liu Bei's reply, Guan Yu immediately called his personal soldiers to take the Red Rabbit horse off the boat. He flew onto the Red Rabbit and took the Qinglong Yanyue Sword. Guan Yu bowed and said to Liu Bei: "Brother, don't let the soldiers get off the boat. If there is any dissonance, you can evacuate in time. I'll go first!"

Liu Bei stared at Guan Yu and said earnestly: "Second brother, be careful, go early and come back soon!"

Guan Yu nodded silently, then slapped the horse's back. The red rabbit let go of his four hooves and left like a red whirlwind...

…………………………………………………

The 13-mile journey was nothing at all under the amazing footsteps of Chitu. With so much tea, Guan Yu came to less than 700 steps outside the South Gate of Shouchun.

The phoenix's eyes suddenly widened, and Guan Yu looked at the situation at the top of the city. After a moment, Guan Yu let out a light breath and his expression obviously relaxed - fortunately! The familiar dark green "Liu"-shaped battle flag on the top of the city was still the familiar dark green battle flag. The soldiers stationed on the city tower and at the gate were wearing Liu Jun's standard armor. Shouchun did not lose it!

With a light grip on the horse's belly, Guan Yu clings the red rabbit to gallop towards the city gate.

The soldiers stationed at the South Gate had also discovered Guan Yu. Due to the distance, it was impossible to tell whether this person was an enemy or a friend. Although the other party was just alone, these soldiers did not dare to be negligent. Under the order of Sima, the soldiers on the city were on guard and were on the verge of the bow and arrow; the soldiers guarding the city gate under the city raised their spears and set up a simple defensive formation.

The fiery red divine horse was getting closer and closer to the city gate, and all the soldiers' nerves became tense. At this moment, a Shi chief on the city tower suddenly exclaimed: "Horse Guan Jun!... It's Hou Guan Jun!" This Shi chief was a member of the stroke of the 7,000 army that had been expeditioning to Shouchun from Runan, so he naturally knew Guan Yu......

Shouchun City County Magistrate's Office

"God blessed, the lord has finally escaped safely! Lord, where is the lord now?" Jian Yong asked anxiously in surprise.

Guan Yu, who had always been calm and calm, seemed a little excited at this time and replied with a smile: "Brother is still at the Qingyang Ferry more than ten miles southwest of the city!"

"Then let's go and pick up the lord into the city now..." Jian Yong said impatiently.

"Yeah!" Guan Yu nodded and suddenly remembered something and said, "Xianhe! There are still thousands of soldiers at the ferry entrance, and many people in the interior are injured and it is inconvenient to walk. We have to send some people from the city to pick them up!"

"Okay, okay..." Jian Yong nodded without folding his head, then turned around and said to Xu Shu who was standing aside with a smile on his face: "Yuanzhi, please arrange your army and horses and follow the lord and I to welcome the lord into the city!"

Guan Yu opened his phoenix eyes with a slightly open flash of light, and he asked Jian Yong with a solemn expression: "Xianhe, who is this gentleman? It seems that Guan doesn't know him!"

Jian Yong suddenly introduced to Guan Yu: "June, this gentleman is Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi, a famous scholar in Yingchuan. He is a talented person personally appointed by the third general. He is currently a military officer in the army. Before the third general returns to Runan, he specially ordered Mr. Yuanzhi to temporarily take charge of Shouchun's military affairs. This time, the plan to defeat Cao's army in attacking Shouchun is all due to Yuanzhi's divine plan!"

"Xu Shu of Yingchuan and Xu of Shu paid homage to Guan Junhou. Everyone knows the reputation of the king and the marquis is well known in the world! It is really a blessing for Xu to meet the king and the marquis today!" Xu Shu bowed to Guan Yu without being humble and arrogant.

"Mr. Xu doesn't have to be too polite!" Seeing that Xu Shu's behavior was not bad, and his words were calm, Guan Yu's expression was slightly relaxed, "Xianhe, in this way, the Cao army that attacked Shouchun had been defeated by you?"

"Yes, Junhou! It was yesterday!" Jian Yong said with a smile, "Under Yuan Zhi's plan, the invading thousands of Cao troops were almost wiped out!"

After receiving Jian Yong's affirmative answer, Guan Yu couldn't help but treat the "Mr. Xu" who was elegant and heroic in front of him. Although at the beginning, Guan Yu was dissatisfied with the fact that Shouchun's military power was actually in the hands of a stranger, he heard Jian Yong explain that this was the arrangement of his third brother, and that it was only temporarily in charge, and the unpleasant feelings were immediately reduced. Then he learned that Xu Shu could actually command the Shouchun defenders to defeat the powerful Cao army and guard the last foundation of his army, which made Guan Yu feel a little more favorable to Xu Shu.

"In this way, Guan is the acting brother and third brother here. Thank you Mr. Xu for defending the territory and defeating the enemy!" Guan Yu was a straightforward person and immediately bowed and bowed to Xu Shu.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to be so polite, so you can destroy Xu Shu! Xu just does his best to hope to live up to the lord, the lord and General Zhang!" Xu Shu hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, let's arrange people to welcome the lord back to the city first!"

"Well! Mr. Xu will arrange it!" Guan Yu said with a faint smile.

"June, then Xu is arbitrary!" Xu Shu nodded and said, "Person Wei, quickly order two thousand men and horses to gather outside the south gate, and follow June to Qingyang Ferry to welcome the lord. Remember to prepare more cars and horses!"

"Get order!" Wei Yan held his fists and took the order, and immediately turned around and left.

"You also need to prepare wine and food for the lord and the returned soldiers, and arrange for the doctor to treat the wounded soldiers. During the simple treatment, you will be troubled by the arrangements!"

"No, no..." Jian Yong waved his hand quickly and said to Xu Shu with a wry smile: "Yuanzhi, I am anxious to see my lord, and my mind is in a mess. You should arrange these matters on my behalf!"

Xu Shu pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Okay!"

……………………

At the Qingyang Ferry Crossing, Liu Bei stared at the direction of Shouchun City in the northeast. Although his face was calm and calm, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. If Shouchun was unfortunately lost, I really don't know when to turn around. His three brothers worked hard for several years and finally occupied two counties. He thought that great achievements were in sight. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Runan fell and Shouchun was in danger! And if it weren't for the third brother's urgent support for four hundred miles, he might have been killed. God treated Liu Bei so well and so thin! Being able to have brothers like Yun Chang and Yide was the best courtesy given to him by God; but the ruthless God arranged such a bumpy and restrained fate for himself!

"Oh..." Liu Bei sighed sadly.

"Lord, don't worry! With General Guan's courage, even if Shouchun falls into the hands of Cao's army, it is absolutely no problem to evacuate safely." Gong Du, who was standing beside him, sighed when he saw Liu Bei, thinking that he was worried about Guan Yu's safety, so he spoke out to comfort him.

"Well... Bomin, have the arrow on your shoulder been better?" Liu Bei nodded and said.

"It's okay! I'm rough and bad-skinned, and I'm injured twice. This time my injury is considered mild! Haha..." Gong Du smiled honestly and suddenly said in surprise: "Lord, there seems to be a military horse coming in front!"

"What?" Liu Bei hurriedly looked forward, and he saw dust flying in the distance. As he was shocked, a red cloud quickly approached. It was the long cloud! Could it be that the army behind was the chasing Cao army?

"Be wary! All ships are ready to leave the shore at any time!" At Liu Bei's gesture, Gong Du looked back and shouted loudly.

Soon, Guan Yu had already rushed to the front, jumped off the Red Rabbit, and smiled lightly towards Liu Bei, "Brother, I'm back! Shouchun was not captured by Cao's army!"

"Huh~" Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked in confusion: "Chang Yun, the military horse behind him is..."

"That's Xian and them, come to welcome the eldest brother back to the city!"

Soon, the army and horses were close to less than a hundred steps away. Wei Yan waved his hand, stopped the team, and turned over and dismounted with Jian Yong. The two of them walked to Liu Bei a few steps, knelt on one knee, bowed and said excitedly: "Jian Yong (Wei Yan) pays homage to the lord!"

Liu Bei helped the two of them up one by one with both hands, and his expression was also very excited. He smiled and said, "Xianhe, Wen Chang! It's so good to see you!"

"Lord Hongfu is all the best. Jian Yong knows that the lord will definitely be able to return safely... Hahaha..." Jian Yong's eyes were filled with tears, but he couldn't help but laugh and said.

"Lord, General Guan, Jian Zhizhong, this is not a good place to talk, so let's go back to the city first!" Wei Yan recommended.

"Yes, yes... lord, let's go back to Shouchun first!" Jian Yong said in a row.

"Yeah!" Liu Bei nodded, and then said to Wei Yan, "The three thousand soldiers on the ship will be brought back to Shouchun by Wen Chang. Remember to be careful, many soldiers are not injured!"

"The last general will receive the order!" Wei Yan responded in a deep voice.

"Okay, let's go back to the city!"
