Chapter 57 Reversal

Fa Zheng transferred five thousand elite soldiers, and Guan Yu did not know why Fa Zheng did this, but in Zhuge Liang's eyes, it was naturally to support the war in the Central Plains to quell it as soon as possible.

During these days, Zhuge Liang has been observing the weather on the banks of the Han River. He has been in Nanyang for a long time and is quite aware of the climate change in this area. At the same time, he has also sent secret spies to Xinye and Nanyang to inquire.

Guan Yu transferred five thousand elite soldiers, but transferred 10,000 Lu Bu's surrendered soldiers from all over the country, which naturally could not escape Zhuge Liang's eyes.

Fa Zheng also had to be grateful for Ye Zhao's foresight. Now Zhuge Liang designed it to deal with Guan Yu, but he didn't know that Fa Zheng existed, or he didn't expect that Ye Zhao would send the top strategists around him to Xinye so quickly, easily seeing through Zhuge Liang's routines. In terms of information about the enemy and us, Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng were not equal in the first place, so that Fa Zheng had the opportunity to hide in the secret to understand Zhuge Liang's every move.

If you come a few days later, the ending will probably be different.

The next day, the fog filled the river. Under Zhuge Liang's planning, Cai Mao ordered Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, Wen Pin and Liu Pan to lead an elite soldier to cross the river while the fog. Before Guan Yu reacted, he cut off Guan Yu's retreat and surrounded Xinye. When Guan Yu reacted, Xinye had become an isolated city.

In order to occupy Nanyang in one fell swoop, threaten Ye Zhao's retreat and alleviate the pressure on Cao Cao's side, Cai Mao and Liu Bei directly used a 100,000 army this time, and began to prepare for the attack a few days ago until today.

It was not until this time that Guan Yu believed what Fa Zheng said that Cai Mao was clearly giving himself a soul to be careless and neglecting to prevent him. Originally, Guan Yu's purpose in Xinye was to put on airs, and he had no intention of attacking Jingxiang, nor did he think that the Jingzhou army would take the initiative to join the Communist Party.

After Cai Mao besieged Xinye, Zhuge Liang knew the benefits of the Guanzhong army's military, so he did not take the initiative to attack. Instead, he ordered people to dig ravines, build barriers, trap Guan Yu, and then mobilized a large army to start the conquest of Nanyang.

The generals besieged Xinye were Liu Bei and Zhang Fei. After all, Guan Yu was a general and had a friendship with Liu Bei. Now that Liu Bei is alone and weak, Zhuge Liang also wants to subdue Guan Yu and let Liu Bei have another general. With Zhuge Liang's understanding of Guan Yu, it is unlikely that Guan Yu would face his brother, and use Liu Bei and a small number of troops to trap Guan Yu, and then conquer Nanyang. As for how to conquer Guan Yu in the end, Zhuge Liang had already made a decision in his mind.

"General?" Zhou Cang followed Guan Yu and looked at the lost Guan Yu and said, "There are not many thieves. With our army's strength, it is enough to defeat him and save Nanyang again!"

Guan Yu looked at the eye-catching Liu's banner, sighed, nodded, and pointed out three thousand elite troops out of the city. He set up a formation outside Xinye City but did not attack. He just looked at the Jingzhou army who was waiting for the battle on the opposite side, took a deep breath and said loudly: "Han Jie Lianghou, General Guan Yu of Funan is here, can the enemy general come out to see you!"

Soon, a soldier and horse surged out of the enemy camp, led by a general, and rushed out of the formation like a black iron tower. He came to the front of the formation and pointed the serpent in his hand at Guan Yu and shouted: "How can the thief who is carrying the master, come to see him with the face!"

The sound was like thunder. Even though it was a hundred steps away, the soldiers behind Guan Yu felt their eardrums tremble. The person came, naturally it was Zhang Fei.

When Guan Yu heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said with a complicated look: "Stern brother, don't talk nonsense, how could I ever betray the Lord?"

Originally, he and Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were sworn brothers. Logically speaking, they were brothers and did not refer to the master. Guan Yu and Liu Bei were divided into Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan, which was also Liu Bei's intention. Guan Yu had never betrayed from beginning to end. If you want to say sorry, when Gongsun Zan was in trouble, Guan Yu served Ye Zhao in Shu. In order to avoid confronting Liu Bei, Guan Yu was unable to resist Gongsun Zan more.

Now that many years have passed, the brothers have reunited, Guan Yu was looking forward to it, but when Zhang Fei came up, he spoke ill like this, which made Guan Yu feel very uncomfortable. It turned out that the eldest brother he regarded as his brother always regarded himself as a slave.

"Bah~ Don't want to kiss me. I, Zhang Fei, are so good-looking, how could I marry someone like you? Do you have the courage to fight me?" Zhang Fei cursed.

Guan Yu was furious when he heard this and took off the Qinglong Yanyue Sword: "Why don't you dare?"

Originally, I didn't mess with you, but you came to beat me. There was no reason. Now that we came out to meet each other, we wanted to reminisce about the past, but who knew that Zhang Fei would scold him when he came out. This made Guan Yu feel very uncomfortable and didn't care about that much. Seeing Zhang Fei invite him to fight, he took the knife without saying a word.

The sword and spear collided. This was probably the first time in this life that the two brothers had such a real battle with swords and guns. The wrists were many times sharper than when they were fighting together in the past. Guan Yu's sword sank the horse faster. With one knife, it was full of swords. Zhang Fei's snake spear stirred up the strange wind and was domineering. The two brothers also knew the truth. Although the other party has made progress over the years, the routines were nothing more than those. When they fought fiercely, no one could take advantage of it. From early morning to evening, they fought for no less than three hundred. The two of them could no longer bear the physical strength, so they responded only afterwards.

This fierce fight made the soldiers on both sides dazzled. Guan Yu was better. Ye Zhaojun was paying attention to military discipline and only cheered when the battle was exciting. Zhang Fei was in chaos, constantly cheering for his own head.

However, as the two of them continued to fight fiercely, Zhang Fei took the lead in quitting his flag, and his voice was dry and he couldn't scream. On the other hand, Guan Yu's side was the same, shouting when he should, and stopping when he should, but the formation did not move at all.

Even Zhuge Liang, who was hiding in the army, could not help but sigh to Liu Bei: "The strength of the troops and horses in Guanzhong and the purging of the military appearance are hard to match in the world!"

Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang worriedly: "Sir, can the plan be achieved?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Donald Xuande just watch it, Liang has his own worries! But please ask Duke Xuande to hold General Guan and don't let him return to the city."

When Liu Bei heard this, he was anxious, but he could only agree. Now that Yuyang, Nieyang and Zhuyang areas have been taken away by him, only Wancheng is left, and several cities in Xinye are still resisting. Now that Guan Yu is taken down, Nanyang will be his own, and there is no reason to be defeated.

On the other side, Zhang Fei fought with Guan Yu for a long time. Seeing that it was getting late, the two of them had almost exhausted their physical strength. Guan Yu gasped and stared at Zhang Fei and said, "I won't tell you, call me brother, I have something to say to him! Follow Cai Mao, there will be no good ending!"

"Will you have a good ending with Ye Zhao's face?" Zhang Fei suddenly grinned and pointed behind Guan Yu and said, "Look behind you!"

When Guan Yu heard this, he felt something strange. He quickly turned around and looked towards Xinye. However, he saw a faint light of fire in Xinye City, and the sound of fighting came from the city. He was stunned. Although he brought most of the elite troops out of the city, with Xinye City's defense, the Jingxiang army should not have invaded so easily!

Just as he was confused, he saw Zhou Cang and his men break out of the city and meet with Guan Yu.

"What's the matter?" Guan Yu retreated back to the army with a calm face, attracting Zhou Cang to ask.

"This is Mr. Fa's instruction. If the general leaves the city and wants the bandits to attack, just bring the elite troops out of the city to join the general and prepare to cooperate with the gentleman to defeat the Jingzhou army." Zhou Cang whispered.

Fazheng’s idea? Now that they are surrounded, how can they break it?

While he was confused, Liu Bei, who had not been on the road for a day, appeared in front of the formation and shouted to Guan Yu: "Yunchang, Ye Zhao used the emperor to order the princes, which is a traitor to the Han Dynasty. Did Yunchang forget that in Taoyuan, how did you and I have a vow to join forces? I must support the Han Dynasty in this life. Why did Yunchang break his oath and help the evildoer?"

"Brother." Guan Yu took a deep breath, clasped his fists at Liu Bei and said, "The Prime Minister treats me well, and His Majesty has never been disrespectful at all. How can you talk about helping evil? Moreover, this time the Prime Minister ordered me to station in Xinye to avoid the disaster of war. If the elder brother retreats at this time, I would like to plead for the elder brother and ask the elder brother to enter the court. You and my brother will assist the Prime Minister together?"

"Yunchang, Ye Zhao is a Han official, and I am a relative of the Han family. Why do I need to assist him?" Liu Bei raised his eyebrows when he heard this, feeling that Guan Yu was a little unreasonable.

"Brother, the people in the world don't actually care about who will be the emperor. What they care about is who can make everyone live a good life. Brother, let's look at the Central Plains. It is precisely because of the prime minister that the people can be rich and the country can be strong..." Guan Yu has naturally not been instilled with the concept of loyalty and Han over the years. Ye Zhao has been talking about it again, which is how to improve the living standards of the people and the comprehensive strength of the country. Among the princes today, Ye Zhao has undoubtedly done the best in this regard.

Liu Bei frowned and said, "Now Xinye has been broken, Yun Changzhen will die for Ye Zhao!"

Before Guan Yu could speak, Zhou Cang, who was standing beside him, suddenly laughed and pointed to the back and laughed: "Liu Bei, let's look over there, who will win and who will win, it's unknown yet!"

When Liu Bei heard this, he frowned and subconsciously looked back.

As dusk became, the cluster of firelights in the sky were not very obvious in the sunset, but the rolling smoke made Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's faces change. That direction was where the army crossing the river was stationed in this time.

not good!

Even Zhang Fei realized something was wrong at this moment. If the food and grass were burned, and the food and grass in various parts of Nanyang were basically here, where did Guan Yu get the troops to detour the rear and raid the granary?

Zhuge Liang suddenly remembered the troops that Guan Yu had sent away before, and suddenly realized that this kind of strategy did not seem to be something that people like Guan Yu thought of.

Zhuge Liang looked at Guan Yu, took a deep breath and said, "I dare to ask General Guan, who is planning for the general!"
