Chapter 198 Remember, Guan Yu is not just a warrior(2/3)
"If we can capture Bashu this time, you two will be the first to succeed!"
Not long after...
Zhang He and Xu Huang have already retreated to order their troops.
Cao Cao walked quietly to the entrance of the cave. He raised his head and looked at the mountains here...looking towards the direction of Bazhong and Fuling. He pondered for a moment, but soon, his eyes opened, as if they suddenly changed.
Be confident.
Immediately afterwards, he moved his head from the northwest and turned to the southeast defense line...
His vision was blocked by the mountains, but his heart seemed to have flowed out of Hanzhong along the Han River, along Shangyong straight to Xiangfan!
At this time, Xu Chu came over and put on a cloak for Cao Cao: "Prime Minister, the wind is strong outside, so don't let it hit your forehead."
Cao Cao looked back at Xu Chu.
"——Zhong Kang, do you think... in Fancheng today, with the ambush from all sides, can Guan Yu be captured?"
this…
Xu Chu shook his head at first, expressing that he didn't know, but then nodded quickly and said, "According to the Prime Minister's plan, General Wenpin, General Gao Lan, Young Master Zhang, General Yu Jin, and Manfu Lord of Xiangfan, Lu Chang were dispatched in this battle.
General, General Zhao Yan, General Niu Jin, "Then Guan Yu doesn't have three heads and six arms. He is just a warrior. How can he escape the ambush set by the Prime Minister?"
Rarely, Xu Chu said a lot this time.
As Xu Chu finished speaking, Cao Cao's eyes suddenly raised.
A sentence came out of his mouth as quickly as lightning, just like the words spoken instinctively and subconsciously:
"Zhongkang, remember - Yun Chang is definitely not a martial artist!"
Speaking of which…
Cao Cao's eyes were as deep as the sea, as if... He saw Guan Yu's voice and smile, and saw Guan Yunchang standing in front of him.
this moment…
In his eyes, Guan Yu seems to be forever frozen in front of the Sishui Pass, frozen in his sword and horse, frozen in the company of warming wine, frozen in the blue dragon gnashing the moon and thundering on the ground, frozen in the warming wine to kill Hua Xiong;
It is also fixed on him beheading Yan Liang and Wen Chou, it is fixed on him hanging a seal and sealing gold, it is fixed on him passing through five passes, killing six generals, and searching for his relatives thousands of miles away;
——"That's it...that's all!"
Cao Cao sighed in his heart, but in his eyes all the stories about him and Guan Yu flashed one by one like a fleeting moment.
Finally, Cao Cao couldn't help but murmur in his heart:
——"Your righteousness is Bo Yuntian, and your loyalty comes first. If you lose this battle, there will be no Guan Yunchang without you in the world. It's just that you never surrendered to me in the past, but... But if you really surrender to me one day, then I... I am so lonely."
I will be really reluctant to leave you!』
Thoughts on this…
Cao Cao's eyes had narrowed tightly, and he opened his mouth and said: "That's all, that's all, Huarong Dao, you can let me go, but for the sake of the world, I can't let you go this time!"
Chant the last sentence.
Cao Cao's vision seemed to pass through layers of mountains, rivers, and woods. He seemed to have seen the Xiangfan battlefield and saw Guan Yu being ambushed from all sides...
He was captured by the generals of Cao Wei and deliberately let go according to the plan. In the end...when the Soochow army invaded Jingzhou, he died at the hands of Soochow Xiaoxiao!
"Yun Chang, Yun Chang, Gu... I still remember the way you looked when you were holding the Spring and Autumn Axis in your hand, with a pair of red and phoenix eyes, sitting on a three-foot tall building, and worshiping the Shouting Marquis of the Han Dynasty!"
"I hope you will always be victorious and undefeated, but you are too strong. You have already threatened me and my great Wei!"
"I have no choice but to let you die at Xiaoxiao's hands!"
…
…
One day has passed in a flash.
Guan Yu was leading his army through the snowy mountains in the northern border of Jiangxia and rushed to Xiling County.
The mountain trail is not easy to walk and is covered with snow...
One of Guan Jiajun's horses suddenly made a stroke, and the whole horse slipped and fell down the mountain path to the cliff. Another knight stepped on a piece of floating snow, and the horse stumbled and fell down the cliff. Fortunately, the knight on the horse reacted.
Quickly and in time, the horse jumped to escape the disaster. You Zi had just recovered from the shock, and the horse's neighing sound was echoing in the mountains.
The Guan Jiajun who were marching were shocked by this scene. They reined in their horses one by one and looked at Guan Yu with great worry.
One of the guards said, "General Guan, how about... don't take the mountain road, take a detour from below, at least you won't fall off the cliff!"
Guan Jiajun knew that they were heading towards Xiling County in a surprise attack.
It is unrealistic to wait for the snow to stop, so we can only hope to take a detour.
Unexpectedly, Guan Yu said, "The detour will delay you for one more day. Get off your horse and walk through this mountain road!"
ah…
The soldiers were stunned for a moment, but they saw Guan Yu dismounting first and leading the red rabbit horse in front, "I, the general, will personally lead the way. You guys should follow closely!"
A group of guards exclaimed, "General, no!"
However, Guan Yu scolded: "Soldiers are very fast. We were on the road, and the enemy's scout horses were also on the way. We were so slow for an hour that the Xiling County scout horses took us back! This raid was in vain! This is a military order,
Don't say any more and follow me, General!"
As he spoke, Guan Yu was already walking forward on the snow.
In fact, in his opinion...
If Yun Qi hadn't sent him a message, and if Hong Qigong hadn't received the information that there was an ambush in Xiangfan, Guan Yu and Guan Jiajun would have been ambushed outside Fancheng.
If so...
Just like what Yun Qi said - there is no life after ten deaths! The body and head are in different places!
Compared with the dangers and the life hanging by a thread, what does this snow mean now?
——"If the northern border of Jiangxia is not captured, will Guan still have the nerve to meet this brat like Yun Qi?"
I think so...
Guan Yu led a group of soldiers and led the horses on foot. In order to prevent the mountain road from slipping, the soldiers held the reins tightly and kept enough space between each other.
In order to prevent "floating snow", Guan Yu's personal guards used tree branches to sweep the snow to both sides of the road to clear a path for the knights.
Fortunately, it's new snow...it's not that thick, and it's not that slippery!
In less than half an hour, Guan Jiajun had walked out of the mountain road and arrived at Anlu County, a hundred meters away from Xiling County.
"——General Guan, Anlu County is ahead of us. It seems that there is no defense. If there is a surprise attack..."
Another soldier asked Guan Yu.
Guan Yu immediately waved his hand, "We will not attack Anlu County until Xiling County is captured, and these cities will collapse without attack!"
ah…
All the soldiers were shocked, "Anlu County is the only way to pass through Xiling County. If we don't attack Anlu County, there will be no way out!"
"——Haha." Guan Yu laughed out loud, and he mused: ""Sun Tzu's Art of War" says that a soldier is like water. The shape of water avoids heights and tends to go down. The shape of soldiers avoids reality and hits weak points. Water depends on the ground.
And to control the flow, the soldiers are victorious because of the enemy. Therefore, the soldiers have no constant momentum, and the water has no constant shape..."
There were only a few Guan Jiajun who could understand these words, and everyone looked at Guan Yu blankly.
Guan Yu's voice continued.
"Forget it, don't mention that grandson, don't you believe what Yun Qi said? He said - the bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish!"
Ah...ah...
A group of Guan family knights looked at each other, they seemed to understand, but they didn't seem to understand.
At this point, the knights had finished resting.
Guan Yu gave the order.
"——The army is advancing at full speed!"
Although I thought of Yun Qi's words...
But at this time, Guan Yu had a completely new understanding.
Before, he took it for granted.
In fact, for Cao Wei, both Xiangfan and Jiangxia are crucial and neither is easy to defeat.
Nowhere is easy to win.
——The core of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" is "all", which is to move the enemy's troops and horses to one side, then avoid the real and attack the weak, use your superior troops and horses to hit the enemy's weak points, and preserve yourself to the greatest extent, thereby gaining
victory!
This is called - total victory.
——"Haha, that brat Yun Qi is right, this "The Art of War" is indeed much more practical than "The Chun Qiu Zuo Zhuan"!"
