Han counter current

The battle in the north is going on so fast that Cao Cao's territory has expanded so much, while the south is not peaceful at the moment.

In Xincheng, a group of thousands of troops is advancing, the morale of the army is low, and the soldiers are full of complaints.

The leader of the army is Guan Yu. He used to be a high-spirited man, but now he is quite lonely.Because, in the confrontation with Ma Chao, he lost.

This matter has to start with Liu Biao's death. Wang Wei was Liu Biao's confidant, and the troops he led were also Liu Biao's subordinates.

After learning that Liu Biao had been killed by Cai Mao, Wang Wei resolutely led his troops back to Xiangyang regardless of Guan Yu's exhortation and warning.

After that, Guan Yu had only ten thousand men left to fight against Ma Chao's five thousand cavalry.Jingzhou's terrain is not suitable for large-scale cavalry charges. As long as Guan Yu pays attention to defense, the problem will not be too big.

But some news from the rear made Guan Yu unable to defend. Among them, the most serious thing was that the rear camp that Liu Bei had finally formed was broken by a group of enemy troops.

The family members of the lieutenant officers and soldiers were basically captured, including Liu Bei's family members and Guan Yu's family members.

After learning the news, Guan Yu was in a dilemma.Before Liu Bei went south, he personally handed over the big camp to him, but because of his arrogance, he lost the rear.

After thinking about it for a while, Guan Yu decided to return, but how could Ma Chao be easy to deal with? More than 5000 cavalry had been pestering Guan Yu, making it difficult for him to move an inch.

At that time, Xiangyang was undergoing great changes, and most of the Jingzhou family's attention was concentrated there, and no one paid attention to Guan Yu, let alone supported him.

Then, when Guan Yu was on guard against Ma Chao, Yan Cheng led his army to attack him from behind. Ma Chao followed the trend and the two sides fought fiercely for several days.

Facing the cavalry, especially the elite cavalry, the fighting power of the Jingzhou army was really not enough, not to mention that there was a general like Ma Chao in the enemy army, and Guan Yu had no choice.

After many battles, Guan Ping was captured by Ma Chao because he covered Guan Yu's retreat, and Guan Feng was also captured by Yan Cheng on the battlefield.

During the scuffle with Ma Chao, Lu Xiao kept aiming at Guan Yu from the outside of the battlefield, and confuse him with several empty arrows, so that Guan Yu was negligent when he fled, and was shot by Lu Xiao in the shoulder and fell off his horse. .

When Guan Yu stood up again, Lu Xiao took the Chitu Ma away, and Ma Chao led his army to kill him again, Guan Yu had to continue to run away.

"Run, run, the enemy is catching up again..."

There was a shout from behind, and then, the whole team panicked.The Jingzhou Army, which had suffered several defeats, did not dare to stay any longer at this time.

"Qu Jing, with me, Guan Yu, the sky won't fall."

Guan Yu's angry roar stabilized the morale of the army for the time being. In normal times, the officers and men of the Jingzhou army would definitely obey Guan Yu's orders wholeheartedly, but now, the eyes of many officers and men showed confusion.

Soon, a large Chen character banner appeared in the rear, and a rumbling sound came from the rear. Judging from the sound alone, the opponents must be all cavalry.

"Chen Zi Da Banner? Could it be that Chen Feng came here in person?"

Guan Yu's face changed slightly. If he was in normal times, he would have shouted Tujiwagou, but now, he really couldn't.

The pursuers behind were not in a hurry to approach. When they reached the Jingzhou Army's side three hundred paces away, all the cavalry stopped and formed formation.

The aura of fierce soldiers on the battlefield came from afar, whether it was a Jingzhou army soldier or Guan Yu, they could feel a sense of fighting spirit at this moment.

There were only three to 4000 pursuers, but they had more than 8000 horses, so they occupied such a large area that many Jingzhou troops mistakenly thought that there were tens of thousands of pursuers.

Soon, there was another booming sound from the north, and large flags appeared in the sight of the Jingzhou army, some with horse characters on them, and some with Yan characters on them. It seemed that Ma Chao and the others had outflanked them from the north. .

"How did this happen? With so many chasing soldiers, how could it be..."

Guan Yu was shocked in his heart. Now he has only thousands of remnants and defeated generals, and the enemy army has so many elite troops. How can this war start.

"rumble,,,,,,"

The dull sound of war drums came from the southwest, and bursts of roars also resounded around. Not long after, a group of banners appeared in the southwest.

"Yes, it's reinforcements, it's our reinforcements,,,,,,"

Looking at the familiar flags, armor and uniforms in the southwest, all the officers and soldiers of the Jingzhou Army present wept with joy.

Liu Bei's commander-in-chief has been moving forward, and the [-] Jingzhou troops behind him are advancing in formation. This group of Jingzhou troops who have just arrived have bright armor and high fighting spirit. It seems that their combat effectiveness is not weak.

"It seems that Liu Bei has integrated the forces in Xiangyang. It was a step too late, and let him take Xiangyang and the southern part of Jingzhou. I am afraid that it will all belong to him soon."

In the northwest, Chen Feng overlooked the opponent's army formation. Liu Bei led [-] Jingzhou troops to arrive, so there was no need for him to launch a war.

After half a stick of incense, the soldiers of both sides had finished forming, and Guan Yu led his subordinates to join his reinforcements. As a result, the Jingzhou army had an absolute advantage in numbers.

"Xuande, long time no see, you're refreshed again."

"Where is it, it is not as good as General Hussars. He dominated the north at a young age, and now he has won Hanzhong. It is really gratifying."

Chen Feng and Liu Bei stepped forward under the guard of their own soldiers, and they exchanged greetings tacitly, as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

"Xuande, I heard that Cao's army was raging in Jingzhou, so I led an army to help, but I didn't expect Cao's army to flee. I really missed the opportunity to fight Cao Cao."

"Hahaha, General Hussars was just joking, Cao Jun is nothing to worry about, I used a little trick to drive them back.

The matter in Jingzhou should naturally be resolved by the soldiers of Jingzhou, so there is no need to bother General Hushi.However, if the general wants to stay as a guest, I welcome it. "

"Oh, I think so too, but it's a pity that I don't have time. I heard that Cao Cao is about to take Qingzhou, and now he is attacking Jizhou. If I stay in the south for a long time, I'm afraid Hebei will belong to Cao Cao."

"If that's the case, then I won't keep Your Excellency. It's a pity that I'm busy with business, otherwise I must go north to teach Cao thief a lesson."

"Hahaha, Xuande is really honest, anyway, since Cao Jun has already retreated, then I should leave, farewell,,,,,,"

"Walk slowly, I won't send you off,,,,,,"

Chapter 639 Carve up Jizhou 1

If you want to use one word to describe the current state of Chen Feng and Liu Bei, the word hypocrisy is undoubtedly the most appropriate.

These two people are obviously life and death enemies, and their subordinates have launched a bloody battle. The hatred between them cannot be resolved with a few words.

But when it came time to meet, the two were able to talk and laugh happily, as if they were friends they hadn't seen for a long time.

Compared with the hypocrisy of these two people, Ma Chao and Zhang Fei next to them are much more straightforward.The two have been staring at each other since they got close, and it seems that they may strike at any time.

Chen Feng and Liu Bei naturally noticed the state of these two fierce generals long ago, but they didn't point it out, and they didn't order the war.

After the chat, Chen Feng and Chen Feng bid farewell to each other. Those who didn't know it thought that they were just leading an army of tens of thousands to chat for a day. Sure enough, no one who can become a prince has a thick skin.

"The tiger general Guan Yu has a false name, and the Yan man Zhang Fei is probably just an eunuch."

Before leaving, the proud Ma Chao suddenly said these words. Although the voice was not loud, everyone around him could hear them clearly, especially Zhang Fei, who heard every word clearly.

"Bastard, boy, show your weapon."

What kind of temper did Zhang Fei have, how could he tolerate such humiliation from others.If Liu Bei hadn't been by his side, he would have rushed to fight.

"My weapon is always in my hand, do I still need to show it? Could it be that you are blind? Or, are you pretending to be blind? Hahahaha,,,,,,"

The current Ma Chao is also eloquent. Before the fight, he used words to anger Zhang Fei. From this aspect alone, he is more cunning than Zhang Fei.
