Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

The drizzle gradually turned into moderate rain.

In Jiangling City, many people complained about the sudden change in the weather.

The dry season is coming, but it can still rain?

Of course, more people realize that this may be the last rain in the next four or five months, and the climate in Gangneung is so weird.

"——Definitely,"

In front of the gate of Guan Mansion, there was a horse's neighing, and then the sound of horse's hooves. The horse's strong hooves stepped on the rain, making a crisp sound.

Liu Pan, dressed in a raincoat, was galloping on a horse in the rain.

Rushing six hundred miles to Changsha was not an easy task.

Looking back at the main hall of Guanfu at this moment...

Under the sky covered with dark clouds, the oil lamp was warm and yellow, reflecting the cheeks of Guan Yu and Ma Liang. After Liu Pan left, Zhou Cang's reports continued.

——"According to the report from the detective, Xiangyang City has indeed sent troops,"

——"The forward is the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry led by Cao Chun, galloping in the direction of the Sunset Valley north of Jiangxia. They are followed by 3,000 infantry led by Niu Jin. However, the two armies are far apart. According to the Tanma report At that time, I am afraid that by now, this Cao army has arrived at Sunset Valley."

After hearing Zhou Cang's report, Guan Yu said with emotion while stroking his long beard: "Niu Jin just farmed the land for Cao Ren's family in the past. How has he ever commanded an army? Haha, I'm afraid that the name of the man who leads these three thousand infantrymen is Niu Jin must be Cao Ren!"

Ma Liang nodded, "Over the years, Cao Ren first confronted Zhou Yu, the governor of Soochow, and then competed with Guan Gong. He became a lot more cautious, but... this didn't help. The Fourth Young Master still guessed it right. This old man The turtle was finally tricked out!"

The topic shifted to Guan Lin and "Old Turtle" Cao Ren.

Guan Yu's hand stroking his beard stopped abruptly.

He said with emotion: "Guan and Cao Ren are old rivals. When Zhuge's military advisor left Jingzhou, he repeatedly mentioned that Cao Ren was the best general in Cao's army."

Hearing this, Ma Liang also sighed: "He is a general from heaven."

In his words, Ma Liang didn't seem to have any doubts about such a "high-profile" title.

No wonder Guan Yu and Ma Liang boasted about Cao Ren so much...

In fact, Cao Ren is not only the best among Cao Wei?

Looking at the entire Three Kingdoms, his record is second to none.

According to historical records in "Three Kingdoms", Cao Ren participated in a total of 22 battles, 19 of which were victorious, and 11 of them were led by himself.

In the first scene, during the crusade against Xuzhou, don't attack Tao Qian's general Lu You;

In the second battle, when fighting against Xuzhou, he led his cavalry to defeat Tao Qian's reinforcements;

In the third game, don't attack Lu Bu's "Juyang" and capture his general Liu He alive;

In the fourth scene, don't attack Zhang Xiu's "Bianbang" and capture 3,000 people;

In the fifth game, the Battle of Guandu, Liu Bei made a surprise attack on Xuchang, and Cao Ren rescued him and defeated Liu Bei;

In the sixth game, he defeated Yuan Shao's general Han Xun at Jiluo Mountain;

In the seventh game, the generals guarded Tongguan and held off the Xiliang rebels for a year;

In the eighth scene, he supervises the Seventh Army to annihilate the traitor Subo and others;

In the ninth scene, Hou Yin led the army to destroy the rebel rebel in Wancheng;

The tenth game, the battle of Xiangfan, defend Xiangfan!

In the eleventh scene, the rebellion of the traitor Zheng Gan was wiped out.

In the eleven times, Tao Qian was defeated twice, Lu Bu was defeated once, Zhang Xiu was defeated once, Liu Bei was defeated once, Yuan Shao was attacked once, bandits were defeated three times, Xiliang rebels were defended once, and Guan Yu was defended once.

This record is placed among the records of all the generals in the Three Kingdoms, but he is the well-deserved number one!

Among these eleven times, there were two defensive battles and nine offensive battles. Offensive battles accounted for 80%. There is no doubt that...Cao Ren was better at offensive battles.

This creates a misunderstanding.

Many people in later generations thought that Cao Ren could only defend and was a master of defense. This is one-sided.

And the reason why when facing Guan Yu, he stayed in Xiangfan and became a tortoise.

Not because of anything else, just because Cao Ren was completely convinced by Guan Yu

...He realized that when it came to attacking, even he, the "Heavenly General", was by no means Guan Yu's opponent.

Assess the situation!

This is also the core reason why Cao Ren was able to gain Cao Cao's trust and became Cao Wei's garrison in the southern presidential territory of Xiangfan.

His abilities are too balanced, whether in terms of force, strategy, intelligence, politics, or charm.

Back then, the reason why Jiangling was lost...

It was because in the Battle of Nanjun, Cao Ren faced Zhou Yu, Lu Meng, Han Dang, Gan Ning, Ling Tong, and even Zhang Fei from the Sun-Liu alliance.

It’s equivalent to the Wu Shu all-star lineup!

The pressure was no less than that of the all-star lineup of Wei and Wu that Guan Yu faced after "Flooding the Seven Armies".

Even so, after losing Nanjun, Cao Cao still praised Cao Ren:

——The battle was defeated so beautifully. The one who lost was Zhou Yu, but Nanjun was left to Liu Bei.

This also shows Cao Ren's mind.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is Cao Wei's "hexagonal warrior".

An all-powerful leader like him is the most difficult to deal with and the most difficult to fall into traps.

Not to mention leading him into a trap.

Guan Yu fully understands this.

After several years of confrontation, Cao Ren defended Xiangfan perfectly and did not give Guan Yu the slightest chance.

But this time, he fell into the trap!

What fell through was not Guan Yu's plan, but Guan Yunqi's.

This inevitably made Guan Yu feel sad.

"As Ji Chang said, Yun Qi... is really embarrassed to be able to lure this old turtle out!"

"Guan Gong, you can't say that." Realizing Guan Yu's mood, Ma Liang quickly enlightened: "If Guan Gong hadn't been firmly seated in Jiangling City, how could Cao Ren fall into the trap?"

"In the final analysis, Cao Wei's 'Heavenly General' was too afraid of Guan Gong, so he was very cautious when facing Guan Gong and never made mistakes. But this time he faced some merchants, so he was inevitably careless and fell into the hands of the Fourth Young Master. The plan is to let the tiger and leopard ride out of the city."

"Haha..." Guan Yu said with a smile: "Although Guan doesn't like Yun Qi's temperament, nor does he like that he always speaks out and contradicts Guan, but credit is credit, and no one can take it away. This time, Ruona Hubao Riding into the Sunset Valley, Tanzhi, Guoan, and Wei will set up an ambush to achieve a complete victory!"

"If this move can seriously injure the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, it will relieve Guan's worries. By forcing Cao Cao back from Hanzhong, Guan will be more confident!"

Speaking of this, Guan Yu stroked his beard again, and he suddenly thought of Guan Lin's "bet".

The bettor who pressed Guan Jiajun to the ground and rubbed him immediately shook his head and sighed: "This time, this kid really beat Guan Jiajun!"

Obviously, Ma Liang also realized that Guan Yu was talking about the bet.

"Haha..." He said with a smile: "Where did Guan Gong say this? After all, it was Yun Qi, the 'Huang Laoxie', who came up with the plan, but Guan Gong's three young masters and the Guan family army were the ones who contributed the most! What about the fourth young master? Qianbuqu, but you can’t stand still!”

"Zifang (Mi Fang) hasn't handed the song to Yun Qi yet, how can he move it?" Rarely, Guan Yu was explaining for Guan Lin. "Besides, this unit has no weapons or armor? If Yun Qi doesn't ask his elder brother, what else can he do? It's just..."

Guan Yu's eyes became deep. He paused and continued: "It's just that this doesn't prove this kid's..."

At the end, Guan Yu's words stopped abruptly...

For a moment, he couldn't help but think of Guan Lin's impassioned words under the "Desheng Bridge" before.

Those words seemed to appear in Guan Yu's ears at this moment.

——"Tell me, is it easy to be my father's son? My father denies my military talent just because I am weak and sick and don't know martial arts. He wants to keep me away from the most cruel battlefield... He doesn't allocate soldiers to me. , he didn’t even give me a military rank, so he raised me like a ‘salted fish’! In fact, I understand that he was doing it for my own good, but...”

——"I, Guan Lin, am also a man. I know clearly that my father and uncle are holding up the banner of 'Han and traitors are not at odds'. How can I, Guan Lin, be such a coward? How can I be so indifferent?" , a salted fish who is content with the status quo? In this case, am I still a Han man?"

——"Dignified man, dignified son of my father, if I can't gallop on the battlefield, I, Guan Lin, really want to dig a hole and bury myself!"

Every word, every sentence echoed in Guan Yu's ears at this moment, making his heart throb!

once Upon a time…

When he first heard these words, Guan Yu felt angry.

He thought this kid was full of nonsense.

How could there be any truth in the world that a son... would openly criticize and accuse his father in front of so many people?

But look now...

Guan Lin's words, every sentence and every word, severely attacked Guan Yu's heart.

——"Guan...denies my son's military talent?" 』

Military talent, haha...

At first, Guan Yu thought Guan Lin's "military talent" was a joke.

But now it seems that he despised this "military talent" at that time, and now...his face was beaten...how...

Of course, the final result of the battle had not yet come, but Guan Yu could already feel the dull pain on his cheek.

Not giving this guy a military rank and not letting him lead troops seems like... Guan Yu was rash and misunderstood!

——"This boy may... really be able to lead an army!" 』

It seems that the atmosphere here has become tense.

Ma Liang quickly opened his mouth and said: "I'm really looking forward to the news from Jiangxia. Cao Chun and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry have been quite popular in recent years. I just don't know that the tiger falling into the valley is worse than the turtle falling into the valley. How much more powerful can it be in the jar?"

"Ah…"

Ma Liang's words made Guan Yu smile slightly.

The hand that was stroking his beard finally moved down, and he whispered softly: "When the news from Jiangxia comes back, Guan is afraid that this kid's tail... hum, I'm afraid it will rise to the sky again..."

As soon as this statement came out.

"Hahahaha..." Ma Liang laughed, and while laughing, he sighed: "Actually, Guan Gong is happy, right?"

ah…

Suddenly his thoughts were exposed, and Guan Yu's ancient, paralyzed face actually became a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, his cheeks were as red as red dates, so this embarrassment... was successfully concealed.

Never thought that it would be at this moment.

A roaring sound came from outside the door.

——"Tiger and Leopard Cavalry? Cao Chun? What is the second brother talking about this guy for?"

——"When this guy was growing up in Banpo, he kidnapped our two eldest nieces! We haven't settled the accounts with him yet!"

Iconic voice, growling tone.

The eyes of Guan Yu and Ma Liang were immediately attracted. The two looked back. Apart from Guan Yu's third brother, Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, who appeared in front of the door? Who else could it be?

"Third...third brother?"

Guan Yu exclaimed, as if he did not expect that his third brother would appear here at this time.

Next to Zhang Fei, Yang Yi was also there. Yang Yi originally wanted to salute Guan Yu with his hand.

Who would have thought that Zhang Fei's loud voice chanted again, "What were you talking about, second brother? In front of second brother, who dares to raise his tail to the sky? Second brother won't care about him, but I, Zhang Fei, won't allow it. I will do it for you." Second brother, knock this tail off!"

"Also, what about Cao Chun, Tiger and Leopard Cavalry? Speaking of this man, I get angry! If he dares to be in front of me, see if I don't poke 10,000 transparent holes in him."

It seemed that the mention of Cao Chun brought back some unbearable memories for Zhang Fei, and he suddenly became angry.

But Yang Yi...

Having seen through all the truth, he smacked his lips and murmured in his heart.

Third Master...are you still settling accounts with Cao Chun?

Xia Houyuan's precious niece is now your wife!

He also gave birth to twins Zhang Bao and Zhang Xingcai for you!

If a score really needs to be settled, who should Xia Houyuan turn to to settle the score?

Of course, Yang Yi only dared to think in his heart that he did not dare to offend this "Mr. Zhang"!

Meeting Guan Yu's gaze, he immediately handed over his hand.

——"Your Majesty, Yang Yi, pays homage to Guan Gong!"

——"According to the orders of Uncle Liu and Zhuge Military Advisor, I have traveled thousands of miles to come here just to test a young master!"

…

…

——A complete victory.

These are the first two words in the battle report.

Speaking of which, these two words rarely appeared on the battlefields of the Three Kingdoms period.

Because to achieve "complete victory", the conditions are too harsh.

First, it must inflict heavy damage to the enemy without causing any damage to one's own side.

Second, it must have a vital impact on the entire subsequent battle situation.

In ancient battlefields, it was extremely difficult to inflict heavy damage on the enemy and have a profound impact, let alone... remain unscathed.

Can…

At this moment, the officials in Guan's army who were counting the results of the battle and writing the battle report wrote the word "complete victory" in the battle report without hesitation.

A complete victory indeed…

Most of the nearly 10,000 Guan soldiers were shot from a distance or occupied the enemy with vehicles. There was no close combat at all. Unless they stumbled and fell into the valley, there was no chance of losing a single soldier!

However, it was not easy to finally be able to fight hand to hand.

But... there were less than a thousand enemies left, and they abandoned their armor and climbed onto the sidecar facing the spear.

There is simply no intention to fight, just looking forward to escaping.

At this moment, it was raining heavily in the Sunset Valley... It seemed that God was also trying to wash away the blood flowing everywhere in the valley.

In the valley, faint cries could still be heard. These were the captured Tiger and Leopard Cavalry soldiers.

They don't know that they are worried about their future.

Or are you crying because of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the first time this victorious army was defeated in such a disgraceful manner?

——No more pride!

For a time, not even the heavy rain could cover the sadness!

More than three thousand corpses...are scattered in the countryside, ready for anyone to pick off. Taking out any of these heads is a great achievement.

And Guan Jiajun's promotion... was all in exchange for military merit and the enemy's heads.

but…

At this moment, there are nearly ten thousand people in the Guan family army, and no one wants to take the credit.

This is because the Guan Jiajun inherited the biggest characteristic of their general Guan Yu - shame!

They knew that even though there were more than 3,000 enemy corpses here, even though hundreds of tiger and leopard cavalry were captured during this battle, even though the baggage, armor, weapons, and horses captured were enough to supply an army of 2,000 people.

but…

This has nothing to do with them.

The reason why such a record can be achieved is not because of anything else, but because of the "indestructible" nature of the serial crossbow, and only because of the "rock-solid strength of the sidecar!"

At this moment, each of them just stared blankly at the sidecar, and looked at the name engraved on the crossbow in a daze.

I couldn't help but feel emotional throughout my body and mind.

——"This Huang Laoxie is really powerful!" 』

In addition, there are four young masters.

After learning that it was the Fourth Young Master who was "leading the snake out of the hole" and "asking their general and eldest son to send troops", every Guan family soldier couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the Fourth Young Master.

Lure the snake out of its hole…

Catching a turtle in an urn…

With this layout and such a plan, the Fourth Young Master's contribution...should be on par with that of Huang Laoxie!

——"The Fourth Young Master is also very powerful!" 』
