However, Sun Quan asked for a plan at Lu Meng. Meng said, "I think Guan's army is small, so he will not escape from the main road. There is a steep road in the north of Maicheng, so he will leave from this road. You can ask Zhu Ran to lead five thousand elite soldiers and lie twenty miles north of Maicheng. When the army arrives, it cannot be with the enemy, but can only be killed later. The army is determined to have no intention of fighting, and will run to Linju. But Pan Zhang leads five hundred elite soldiers and lie on the remote small road in Linju Mountain. Guan can be captured. Now he sends soldiers to attack each gate, and only empty the north gate, and wait for him to leave." Quan heard the plan and asked Lu Fan to divine it again. The hexagram was completed, and Fan told him, "This hexagram means that the enemy will go northwest and will be captured tonight at Hai." Quan was very happy and ordered Zhu Ran and Pan Zhang to lead two elite soldiers and each ambushed according to the military order.

Let’s say that Guan Gong was in Maicheng, and he planned to order more than 300 horse and infantry soldiers, and only had more than 300 people left. The food and grass were exhausted. That night, Wu soldiers outside the city called the names of each army, and many people left across the city. The rescuers did not see them. He was helpless and said to Wang Fu, "I regret that I didn’t need to say anything in the past! Today’s crisis is so critical, what will happen?" Fu cried and said, "Even if Ziya is resurrected, there is no way to do it." Zhao Lei said, "Shangyong did not rescue the troops, but Liu Feng and Meng Da were not moving. Why not abandon this lonely city, run into Xichuan, and then reorganize the troops to restore it?" The Duke said, "I want to do this too." So he went up to the city to look at it. Seeing that there were not many enemies outside the north gate, he asked the residents of the city:

"What is the terrain?" He replied, "This is all a remote mountain road, which can lead to Xichuan." The Duke said, "You can walk this road tonight... Wang Fu advised, "There is an ambush on the small road, so you can walk the big road." The Duke said, "Although there is an ambush, why am I afraid!" He ordered the horse and sect army to be well dressed up and prepare to leave the city. Fu cried and said, "Your Majesty is on the road, be careful! I have more than a hundred soldiers from my subordinates, and I have died to take advantage of this city. Although the city is broken, I will not surrender! I hope you will come to rescue me quickly!" The Duke also left. So he left Zhou Cang and Wang Fu to guard Maicheng together. Guan Gong was with Guan Ping and Zhao Lei led more than 200 disabled soldiers to the north gate. Guan Gong advanced with his sword and walked to the first update.

, After about twenty miles, I saw a golden drum sounding in the depression of the mountain, and the shouts were shocked. A large army arrived. Zhu Ran, the general, suddenly raised his horse and speared and shouted, "Don't leave! Surrender as soon as possible to avoid death!" The Duke was furious and came to fight. Zhu Ran took advantage of the situation to chase and kill. The drum sounded, and the ambushed soldiers all over the place rose. The Duke did not dare to fight, and looked at the Ju Xiaolu, and Zhu Ran led his troops to cover the kill. The troops followed Guan Gong gradually became fewer. He could not walk four or five miles, and the shouts in front were shocked again, and the fire rose up. Pan Zhang suddenly rushed to fight. The Duke was furious and the Duke greeted him. He only had three together. Pan Zhang was defeated. The Duke did not dare to fight and hurriedly walked on the mountain road. Guan Ping came behind him and reported to him.

It was said that Zhao Lei had died in the chaotic army. Guan Gong was so sad that he ordered Guan Ping to cut off the rear. Gong opened the way forward and stopped more than ten people. When he arrived at the breaking stone, he was at the mountain. The two sides were covered with reeds and grass, and trees were mixed. It was already five o'clock. Just as he was about to finish his life, he shouted, and the two ambushed soldiers were all out, and he raised his long hooks and lassoes together to take Guan Gong down and trip. Guan Gong turned over and fell off the horse and was captured by Pan Zhang's general Ma Zhong. Guan Ping knew that his father was captured and came to rescue him quickly. Pan Zhang and Zhu Ran led his troops to surround Guan Ping. Ping fought alone and was also held in his arms. By dawn, Sun Quan heard that Guan Gong and his son had been captured, and he was very happy and gathered the generals in the tent.

When he was young, Ma Zhong surrounded Guan Gong and came to the front. Quan said, "I have admired the general's virtue for a long time and wanted to make up the favor of Qin and Jin, why should I abandon him? Gong Pang once thought he was invincible in the world, so why should I be captured by me today? Will the general still be submissive today?" Guan Gong scolded sternly, "Blue-eyed children, purple-bearded rats! I have formed a feud with Liu Huangshu Taoyuan, and vowed to support the Han Dynasty. How could I be with you? Is it that I rebel against the Han Dynasty? I am now in a traitor and die, so why should I say too much!" Quan looked back at the officials and said, "I love him deeply. Now I want to treat him with courtesy and persuade him to surrender, so what if I do?" Zuo Xian, the chief clerk, said, "No. When Cao Cao got this person, he was granted a title, a small banquet for three days, a big banquet for five days, and a big banquet for five days, and a gold banquet for horses, and a silver for horses: Such kindness, after all, I can't keep it. I will listen to him.

He killed the generals and left, which caused him to be forced today, and he almost wanted to move the capital to avoid his attack. Now that the lord has captured it, if he does not eliminate it immediately, he may cause troubles to the future." Sun Quan pondered for a while and said, "This is what he said." He then ordered him to come out. So Guan Gong and his son were killed. It was in December of the winter of the 24th year of Jian'an. Guan Gong was fifty-eight years old. Later generations sighed and said, "The talent at the end of the Han Dynasty, and the clouds were born alone: ​​the power of the gods and the martial arts are powerful and the elegance is even more knowledgeable about literature. The sky is as bright as a mirror, and the meaning of the Spring and Autumn Period is weak. It is clear that it will last forever, not only the crown of three points." There is also a poem that says, "The heroes only follow the ancients and understand the good, and the scholars and the people compete to worship the long Han Yunchang. One day, my brothers and brothers in Taoyuan, and the emperor and the kings were invincible in the sacrificial period. The spirit is unrivaled with wind and thunder, and the ambition is shining with the sun and the moon. The temple looks soaring all over the world, and the ancient trees are cold and crows are setting sun."

After Guan Gong died, he sat down and was captured by Ma Zhong and offered it to Sun Quan. Quan immediately gave Ma Zhong a ride. His horse died without eating grass for several days.

But Wang Fu was in Maicheng, and his bones were trembling and his flesh were frightened. He asked Zhou Cang, "Last night, I dreamed that the lord was covered in blood and stood in front of me. When I asked him urgently, I suddenly realized that I didn't know what good or bad the lord was?" As he was speaking, he suddenly reported that Wu soldiers were at the city and recruited Guan Gong and his son as the heads. Wang Fu was shocked and rushed to the city to look at him. As a result, Guan Gong and his son as the heads. Wang Fu shouted and fell into the city and died. Zhou Cang committed suicide and died. So Maicheng was also part of the Eastern Wu.

But Guan Gong's soul never dissipated, and he was wandering and wandering until one place. It was a mountain in Dangyang County, Jingmen Prefecture, named Yuquan Mountain. There was an old monk on the mountain, named Pujing, who was originally an elder in the Zhenguo Temple of Sishuiguan. Later, because he traveled all over the world, he came here and saw the beautiful mountains and rivers. He then made grass into a temple. He sat in meditation every day. There was only a small walker beside him, and he lived a meal. It was the night moon and the wind was clear. After the third update, Pujing was sitting silently in the temple. Suddenly, someone shouted in the air, "Go back to my head!" Pujing looked up and saw a man in the air, riding a red rabbit horse, carrying a blue dragon sword, a white-faced general on the left, and a black-faced man with a curly beard on the right, pressing down on the cloud head together to Yuquan

On the top of the mountain, Pujing recognized it as Guan Gong, so he hit his house with a tail in his hand and said, "Yun Chang'an is here?" Guan Gong's heroic soul suddenly realized, and then got off his horse and rode on the wind and fell in front of the temple. He crossed his hands and asked, "Who is my teacher? I wish to ask for the Dharma name." Pujing said, "Old monk Pujing, in the past, I met with the king and the lord in the Zhenguo Temple in front of the Sishui Pass. How could he forget it today?" The Duke said, "Xiang Meng saved me, but Ming was unwilling to forget it. Now I died in trouble. I wish to seek Qingzhi and guide my lost path." Pujing said, "The past is not the present, so I will not discuss everything; the consequences and causes are unhappy. Now the general was harmed by Lu Meng and shouted to return it to me, but who will Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Wuguan and Liu Generals and others ask for the heads of everyone?

"So Guan Gong suddenly realized and bowed his head and took refuge. Later, he often showed his holy and protected the people in Yuquan Mountain. The villagers were moved by his virtue, so he built a temple on the top of the mountain to pay tribute to the four seasons. Later generations wrote a couplet in his temple: "The red face and the red heart are raised, and the red rabbit is chasing the wind. When he is driving, he will never forget the Red Emperor, the green lamp is watching the history, the blue dragon and the moon are hiding, and the sky is worthy of the hidden place."

However, after Sun Quan harmed Guan Gong, he collected all the land of Jingxiang, praised the three armies, and held a banquet for the generals to celebrate the achievements. When Lu Meng was placed in the throne, Gu said to the generals, "I have not been able to obtain Jingzhou for a long time, but now I have obtained it with my hands. This is all the achievements of Ziming." Meng thanked again and again. Quan said, "In the past, Zhou Langxiong skipped people and defeated Cao Cao in the Red Cliff. Unfortunately, he died young. Lu Zijing replaced him. When Zijing first saw Gu, he made a big plan for the emperor. This is a quick opportunity. Cao Cao went east and everyone advised Gu to surrender. Zijing only advised Gu to summon Gongjin and attack him. These two quick opportunities were: only to persuade me to borrow Jingzhou and Liu Bei. Now Ziming is planning to set up Jingzhou, which is better than Zijing, and Zhou Lang has a lot of Zhou Lang!" So he drank wine and gave Lu Meng. Lu Meng received the wine and wanted to drink, but suddenly threw a cup on the ground.

He grabbed Sun Quan with his hand and cursed loudly, "Blue-eyed child! Purple-bearded rats! Do you still know me?" The generals were shocked. When they were first aid, Meng pushed Sun Quan down, strode forward, and sat on Sun Quan's position, with his eyebrows raised, his eyes wide open, and shouted, "Since I broke through the Yellow Turban, I have been circulating all over the world for more than 30 years. Now, if you have been tricked by you by treacherous plans, I can't eat your flesh in my life. I will chase the soul of the Lu thief! I am Guan Yunchang, the Marquis of Shouting in Han." Quan was shocked and hurriedly led all the soldiers of all sizes to bow down. Lu Meng fell to the ground, bleeding from his seven orifices and died. All the generals were afraid to see him. Quan buried Lu Meng's body, and presented it with a coffin, and presented it to the prefect of Nanjun and Chanling Marquis; he ordered his son Lu Ba to ascend the title. Sun Quan was surprised from this and was surprised to see Guan Gong.

Suddenly, Zhang Zhao came from Jianye. Quan summoned him in to ask him. Zhao said, "Now the lord has damaged Guan Gong and his son, and the disaster in Jiangdong is not far away! When this man became a feud with Liu Bei in Taoyuan, he vowed to live and die together. Now Liu Bei already has two Sichuan soldiers; he also has the plan of Zhuge Liang, Zhang, Huang, Ma, and Zhao's courage. If Bei knew that Yunchang and his son were killed, he would raise troops to scoop up the country and strive to take revenge, fearing that Dongwu would not be able to fight against the enemy." Quan was shocked when he heard this and fell to his feet and said, "I am lonely and lost! What can I do if I do this?" Zhao said, "

Lord, don't worry. Someone has a plan to prevent the soldiers of Western Shu from invading Eastern Wu and Jingzhou from being as safe as a rock." Quan asked what the plan. Zhao said: "Now Cao Cao has a million people and is looking at China. Liu Bei is eager to take revenge and must make an agreement with Cao. If two places come together, Eastern Wu will be in danger. It is better to send someone to the head of Guan Gong and forward it to Cao Cao. The Ming sect Liu Bei knew that this was the one who was sent by Cao, and he would hate Cao Cao. The soldiers of Western Shu did not go to Wu but to Wei. I then observed the victory and defeat and took things from the middle. This is the best strategy."

Quan followed his words and sent an envoy to serve Guan Gong's head in a wooden box and sent him to Cao Cao at night. At that time, Cao Cao returned to Luoyang from Mopi. When he heard that Dongwu had sent Guan Gong's head to him, he was happy and said, "Yunchang is dead, I sleep at night and I sleep on the mat." A man at the foot came out and said, "This is the plan to rebel the disaster in Dongwu." Cao looked at him and was the chief clerk Sima Yi. Cao asked about the reason, Yi said, "When Liu, Guan and Zhang were together when they were in Taoyuan, they swear to live and die together. Now Dongwu has harmed Guan Gong and feared his revenge, so he presented his head to the king, causing Liu Bei to take anger at the king, and did not attack Wu but attack Wei, but he took the lead in the middle.

And he was trying to do things." Cao said, "Zhongda's words are so. How can I solve it?" Yi said, "This matter is very easy. The king can take Guan Gong's head, carve a body of fragrant wood to match it, and bury it with the etiquette of ministers. Liu Bei knew it, and he would hate Sun Quan deeply and try his best to fight south. But I see his victory! When Shu wins, he attacks Wu, and when Wu wins, he attacks Shu. If two places are obtained, that place will not last long." Cao was very happy and followed his plan, so he summoned Wu envoys. He presented the wooden box, and Cao opened the box to look at it. He saw Guan Gong's face as usual. Cao laughed and said, "Yun Changgong is fine!" Before he finished speaking, he only saw Guan Gong.

The mouth opens and eyes moves, and the beards and hair are all open. Cao fell shocked. The officials were first aided and woke up after a long time. He said to the officials, "General Guan is really a god!" The Wu envoy again possessed Guan Gong and scolded Sun Quan for chasing Lu Meng. Cao became more and more afraid, so he set up sacrifices for sacrifices, carved agarwood as his body, and buried them outside the southern gate of Luoyang with the rituals of kings and princes. Cao ordered officials to worship him and presented him as King Jing, and sent officials to guard the tomb. He immediately sent the envoy back to Jiangdong. However, the King of Hanzhong returned to Chengdu from Dongchuan, and Fa Zheng reported, "The king's wife died; Mrs. Sun returned south again. He may not come again.

.The way of human relations cannot be abolished. The princess must be accepted to encourage internal affairs." The King of Hanzhong followed him, and Fa Zheng replied, "Wu Yi has a sister who is beautiful and virtuous. I once heard that if there is a prime minister, the daughter of this daughter will be of great honor. I first promised that Liu Yan's son Liu Mao, who died early. His daughter is still widowed, and the king can accept him as a concubine." The King of Hanzhong said, "Liu Mao is the same clan as me, and it is not reasonable." Fa Zheng said, "Why is it different from Jin Wen and Huai Ying?" The King of Hanzhong then agreed to Yun and then appointed Wu as the princess. The queen gave birth to two sons: Liu Yong, whose courtesy name was Gongshou; the second Liu Li, whose courtesy name was Fengxiao.

Let’s talk about the east and west rivers, the people are safe and the country is rich, and the fields are abundant. Suddenly someone came from Jingzhou and said that Dongwu proposed to Guan Gong, but Guan Gong refused. Kongming said: "Jingzhou is in danger! You can ask someone to return for Guan Gong." During the discussion, Jingzhou reported the mission in succession. In a row, Guan Zhou arrived and said that the water flooded the seven armies. Suddenly, the horses came and reported that Guan Gong had set up many troughs on the riverside, and was very careful and foolproof. Therefore, Xuande was relieved.

Suddenly one day, Xuande felt his whole body tremble and he was restless when walking and sitting. At night, he couldn't sleep. He got up and sat in the inner room, read a candle, and felt unconscious, and he lay a few lying down. A cold wind broke out in the room, and the lamp went off and brightened. He looked up and saw a person standing under the lamp. Xuande asked, "Who are you, are you going to my inner room?" The man did not answer. Xuande was wondering and looked up and looked at him. It was Guan Gong who came back and forth under the shadow of the lamp.

Xuande said, "My brother is fine, goodbye! It must be a big reason for this late at night. I have the same kindness as you, why should I avoid it?" Guan Gong cried and said, "I hope my brother will raise an army and I will hate you!" After speaking, the cold wind suddenly rose, and Guan Gong did not see him. Xuande suddenly realized that it was a dream. At the time, the three drums were in the air. Xuande was very suspicious and rushed out of the front hall and sent someone to invite Kong Ming to come. Kong Ming came in to see him, and Xuande said in detail that the dream was alert. Kong Ming said, "This is the king's mind about Guan Gong, so he has this dream. Why should he be suspicious?" Xuande was suspicious again and again

Concerned, Kong Ming explained it with good words. Kong Ming said, "I went to the military advisor's office to report a secret. I heard that the military advisor entered the palace and came here." Kong Ming said, "What is the secret?" Jing said, "I heard a legend from outsiders that Lu Meng of the Eastern Wu had attacked Jingzhou, and Guan Gong was killed! So I came to report to the military advisor secretly." Kong Ming said, "I looked at the sky at night and saw that the general star fell in the land of Jingchu. I knew that the clouds would inevitably be in trouble, but I was afraid that the king would be worried, so I dare not speak."

While the two were talking, suddenly a man turned out from the hall, pulled Kong Ming's sleeve and said, "Why do you hide such a bad faith?!"

Kong Ming looked at it, which was Xuande. Kong Ming, Xu Jing reported, "What he said was just here is all the rumors, and he has not yet believed it deeply. I hope the king will be lenient and not worry." Xuande said, "I vowed to Yunchang to be together. If there is any loss, how can I live and die alone?" Kong Ming, Xu Jing was just admonishing him, and suddenly the attendant reported, "Ma Liang, Yi Ji has arrived." Xuande rushed to ask him. The two said that Jingzhou had been lost, Guan Gong was defeated and asked for help, and submitted a letter. Before he could dismantle the view, the servant reported to Jing again.

When Liao Hua arrived in the prefecture, Xuande was summoned in urgently. Hua cried and bowed to the ground, and reported to Liu Feng in detail that Meng Da would not send any reinforcements. Xuande was shocked and said, "If this is the case, my brother will be done!" Kong Ming said, "Liu Feng, Meng Da is so rude, and the crime cannot be punished! The king was relieved, and Liang personally brought in a brigade army to save Jingxiang." Xuande cried and said, "Yun Chang has made mistakes, but I am not alone! I will pick up a army to save Yun Chang!" So he sent someone to Langzhong to report Yide, while sending someone to gather people.

Before dawn, several times reported that Guan Gong was about to leave at night and was caught by Wu General. He was righteous and unyielding, and the father and son returned to God. After hearing this, Xuande shouted and fainted on the ground.
Chapter completed!
