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

It was sunny yesterday, but after one night, it started to snow.

Snowflakes fell all over the sky, flying like goose feathers.

Decorate the interior and exterior of Xudu City into a blanket of silver!

Xiahou Dun's son Xiahou Mao and Xiahou Yuan's second son Xiahou Ba and third son Xiahou said that the three of them returned with their servants, a group of men with light fur and fat horses, and the car loaded with prey.

As if, taking advantage of such a heavy snowfall, they went hunting in the snow.

Xia Houmao shouted: "It's still fun to hunt in the snow."

Xiahou Ba smiled and said: "Yes, the animals are frozen and can't run fast. One shot is always accurate. Hunting like this is too boring. In such weather, you should gallop on the battlefield! Shoot the living enemy!"

Xiahou Ba was a militant, and he could not hide his eagerness to fight on the battlefield.

Xia Hou said he understood, "Second brother is afraid that seeing Brother Ziwen (Cao Zhang) going to round up Guan Yu, I will feel itchy!"

Xiahouba sighed "Alas", "Not only Ziwen has gone, but Zihuan and Zijian have also gone, but uncle does not allow us to go...We must garrison Xudu, haha, Xiangfan has not been broken, Xudu City has What's so good about garrisoning? We've lost such a great achievement as 'Ambush from Flying Daggers' in vain."

Xia Houmao was also full of emotions, "Yes, isn't the great ancestor Liu Bang the overlord of Chu who defeated House of Flying Daggers? This time, the encirclement and suppression of Guan Yu is another battle at Gaixia that has lasted four hundred years!"

Xiahou Cheng said sadly, "How long has it been? I still think about the great ancestor of the Han family. When mentioning the ambush on all sides, Zilin (Xiahou Mao) should not have thought that it was the fight between his uncle and the traitor Yuan Shao." Is it the 'Battle of Cangting'? Mr. Cheng Yu suggested a plan to my uncle, ambushed him from all sides and severely wounded Yuan Benchu, beating him until he vomited blood and died!"

"Hahahaha..." Xia Houmao laughed, "Uncle Quan (Xia Houcheng) said it right. The world belongs to our uncle now. There is nothing to do with the Han family. But Guan Yu, will he be like that? Yuan Benchu ​​vomited blood and died? Let’s not talk about it anymore, so many wild game came to my house and we drank and roasted them.”

"Forget it!" Xia Houba and Xia Houcheng waved their hands, "After Brother Zilin got married to Princess Qinghe, I heard that Princess Qinghe didn't allow Brother Zilin to drink!"

Mentioning this, Xia Houmao snorted coldly, "If it weren't for the fact that he is the uncle's daughter..."

As he said this, Xiahou Mao suddenly saw his father Xiahou Dun on the tower of Xudu City in front of him.

Although they were far apart,... Xia Houmao still swallowed back everything he wanted to say because of his timidity.

"What is uncle doing here?" Xiahou Ba asked curiously.

"It's probably the same ambush from all sides to surround and suppress Guan Yu, right?" Xia Hou replied.

Xiahou Ba nodded, "I guess my uncle is worried that in such weather, it will be difficult for Guan Yu to march, and it will be even later for him to enter the ambush."

Over here, the three descendants of the Xiahou family returned with a full load of prey.

Over there, Xiahou Dun on the city tower noticed them and knew that they were returning from hunting in the snow. He did not greet his sons and nephews, but looked towards Xiangfan with a frown.

Speaking of which, after Cao Cao captured Hanzhong, he sent Xiahou Dun back to Xudu without stopping.

They are worried about the turmoil within Xudu City and even the Central Plains.

You know, on the tenth day of the fifth lunar month two years ago, Emperor Xian made Cao Cao the Duke of Wei, and made the ten counties under Jizhou a fiefdom for Cao Cao. He added "Nine Tins" and was allowed to wear dragon robes, crowns and red gifts. shoe.

In November, the State of Wei established Shangshu, Shizhong and Liuqing.

In December, Cao Cao resumed corporal punishment.

From that time on, more and more clans opposed Cao Cao.

The death of Xun Yu and Xun Lingjun set off a storm of rebellion against Cao among the clan.

It can be said that since two years ago, Cao Cao has never been on an expedition for more than a year.

He always needs to be on guard against chaos in Kyoto!

The reason why he did not return from Hanzhong immediately after conquering Hanzhong this time was because the temptation of "Ba Shu" was too great, and also because he knew Liu Bei too well.

——The only heroes in the world are Zhijun and Caoer!

If Liu Bei and Liu Xuande were given enough time to develop, it would not be scabies, but a serious problem.

It is precisely for this reason that after capturing Hanzhong, Cao Cao immediately sent Xiahou Dun, who had accompanied him on the expedition, back to Xudu.

First, sit in Kyoto to prevent turmoil in the Central Plains;

Secondly, it also prevents changes in the situation in Xiangfan and Hefei.

Who would have thought, what are you afraid of...what will happen.

The situation in Xiangfan has really changed suddenly!

Xiahou Dun was not in a relaxed mood.

At this moment, he looked towards Xiangfan with one eye, and chanted in his mouth: "In this snowy day, Guan Yunchang's march will not slow down, right? Don't let any accident happen!"

Xiahou Dun felt inexplicably worried.

But soon, his eyes tightened again, and he grinned, "I must be too worried. In this weather, Guan Jiajun will definitely be like that frozen beast, ready to be slaughtered!"

Speaking of this... Xiahou Dun regained a bit of confidence.

only…

If nothing else happens, there will definitely be an "accident"!

"Report to the General——" At this moment, a guard quickly reported. "Something happened in Xudu City."

And with the words of this personal guard...

Xiahou Dun's cheeks instantly became solemn...and gloomy.

…

…

The magnificent Xiangyang City Government Office.

Now Zhao Yan, the "acting governor" here, hurried out. He quickly rode to the tower, got off his horse, and trotted all the way up the tower, looking at the Guan army waiting in heavy snow outside the city.

——The armor is like ink, which is very obvious in the pale snow;

——The spears are like a forest, just like... This army shows its unshakable determination to regard death as home.

this…

When Zhao Yan saw this scene, his legs staggered and he almost fell over, he murmured.

"This is wrong!"

Indeed, according to Zhang Liao's analysis and the plan left by Prime Minister Cao.

Now... the Guan army should cross the river and rush to attack Fancheng.

How could it be Xiangyang?

Capture Fancheng? Not only can it threaten Xu and Luo... Xiangyang City is even more vulnerable to self-defeat!

At this time, there is no point in attacking Xiangyang, which is surrounded by water on three sides and mountains on one side!

You must know that although Xiangyang and Fancheng are only separated by a river, where the Guan family army attacks is a world of difference.

Fancheng is north of Jingjiang River and closer to Cao Wei's territory.

The ambush there would be very hidden, and it would be easier to set up an "ambush from all directions" formation.

Can…

Xiangyang City is located south of Jingjiang River.

Even closer was Guan Yu's territory. Whenever there was any sign of trouble, the Guan Army's scouts would spot it.

The ambush is bound to be discovered, let alone "ambushing from all sides" and "catching a turtle in a urn"!

this…

——The situation is wrong!

At this moment, Zhao Yan's cheeks curled up coldly. Facing the Guan family army below the city, he was a little panicked for a moment.

He looked around, but found that there was no one who could really discuss it!

last night…

Zhang Liao has already led his troops to Fancheng. In other words, there are only Zhao Yan and five thousand defenders in Xiangyang City now.

"Gudong" sound...

Zhao Yan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his heart was extremely heavy.

——"What if 30,000 Guan family troops come to attack the city?" Even if Xiangyang is... afraid... afraid, it won't be able to hold on! 』

——"The Guan family army won't...can't attack the city, right?" They... they must have used their old tactics to attack Xiangyang, but actually... they were going... to attack Fancheng. This must be the case, this must be the case! 』

For a moment, Zhao Yan frowned.

"Send me military orders——"

"All soldiers will be prepared to prepare. If anyone dares to go out of the city to meet the enemy privately, he will be beheaded...beheaded to death!"

Zhao Yan's tone sounded a little panicked.

"In addition, quickly... quickly report the situation here to Fancheng! Report it to General Wenyuan!"

Yes, at this time, General Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan must make a decision.

Can…

The deputy general on the side said, "General, with such heavy snow, I'm afraid... I'm afraid that pigeons can't fly over Jingjiang River!"

Yes, with such heavy snow and such extremely cold weather... people will freeze to death. How can the pigeons spread their wings?

"Then... then send fast horses!" Zhao Yan was anxious.

"We can't send it out." The deputy general said truthfully: "The city...the city has been surrounded..."

After saying this, Zhao Yan stumbled and took a heavy step back.

do not understand…

He couldn't understand this situation at all!

But inexplicably, there was a touch of fear and a faint worry in his heart.

——It’s like, something terrible is about to happen!

…

…

Surrounded by water on three sides and backed by mountains on one side, Xiangyang City is majestic.

At this moment, Guan Ping was standing at the foot of Xiangyang City. He was overlooking this city that was "easy to defend but difficult to attack"... a city covered in snow.

He couldn't help but retreat.

——"Can such a high city wall be conquered in such a cold weather?" 』

With this in mind, he looked around behind him, looking at the frozen faces of the soldiers and their complicated expressions. He could feel the tangled state of mind of these five thousand Guan family troops.

They were afraid of attacking the city, but... they also resolutely did not dare to retreat.

This is Guan Jiajun.

Knowing that there is a mountain of swords ahead, the Guan family army must face the difficulties.

At this moment, Guan Ping had a suspicion in his heart.

——"Why haven't the troops of Commander-in-Chief Father, General Zhou Cang, Second Brother, Third Sister, and Fifth Brother arrived yet?" 』

You can't really rely on just five thousand of them to attack the city, right?

Under such extreme weather, thirty thousand Guan Jiajun might have a chance, but five thousand... no chance at all.

--"etc…"

Guan Ping suddenly thought of something.

He shouted: "Where are my father's military orders?"

Immediately, a deputy general fetched the military order. Zhou Cang mentioned that it could only be opened when he arrived at Xiangyang City. The second military order!

Guan Ping started quickly without thinking.

As for this military order, it would have been better not to unfold it, but once it was unfolded, he was stunned.

--"this…"

--"how so? 』

No wonder Guan Ping was surprised, because in this military order, Guan Yu wrote a line of small words: "Ping'er pretends to attack Xiangyang and goes to capture Jiangxia for his father!"

When he first saw it, Guan Ping didn't react. He thought that Guan Yu's words "Go to fetch Jiangxia for my father" were "Go to fetch Fancheng for my father."

In this way, this is a very common strategy of "attacking in the east and attacking in the west".

When he was about to instruct the soldiers to wave flags and shout, to make a false impression.

Guan Ping suddenly seemed to react.

——"It's Jiang Xia!" 』

Guan Ping's pupils suddenly widened...

He opened his mouth subconsciously: "It's not Fancheng...it's...it's Jiangxia!"

"My father listened to what my fourth brother said. No... maybe, maybe from the beginning, my father's goal was Jiangxia, Xiangfan... Xiangfan has always been an illusion, just a bait!"

After a brain circuit as fast as electricity, Guan Ping came to this conclusion.

At the same time, he thought of many things in an instant.

The first thing that bore the brunt was actually a conversation between him and Guan Lin.

At that time, the fourth brother Guan Lin was chatting with the fifth brother Guan Suo, and the content of the chat was "slandering" his father...

Guan Ping couldn't stand it, so he argued a few words.

Guan Lin said: "Brother, you don't really think that killing Yanliang is because of my father, right?"

Guan Ping's answer was: "Don't try to make excuses. Who in the world doesn't know that my father 'killed good people and punished ugly people'? Isn't this his father's contribution? Who else can do it?"

At that time, Guan Lin directly retorted: "Our father is just a blind bastard. Brother, how can you believe what he says? Zhan Yanliang...at least has a slight relationship with him. When it comes to meritorious deeds, how can it be our father's turn to become famous?" "

"That's the credit of Xun You, Cao Cao's mastermind! I'm thinking of you, brother. Yuan Shao sent general Yan Liang to besiege Baima. Xun You offered a plan to let Cao Cao station troops in Yanjin to pretend to cross the river. So... Yuan Shao, who originally planned to garrison Baima, hesitated. He did not dare to send people to support Yan Liang, so he sent heavy troops to guard the other side of Yanjin..."

"But Cao Cao's army was clamoring to fight every day. What was the final result? It was a lonely fight. Instead, under Cao Cao's instructions, my father led light troops to attack the white horse. With a perfect time difference, he defeated the isolated and helpless people. Yan Liang was killed by a horse! Brother, you taste it, you taste it carefully!"

"The people who eat melons don't know why. They all say that my father killed Yanliang. But in fact, does this have much to do with our father? Under Xun You's plan, even if Cao Cao didn't send our father, a huge Due to the time difference, Qingqi made a surprise attack, and the 'dog' who casually tied up Cao Ying killed Yan Liang! What shame does our father have to say that this credit belongs to him? Damn... my father really takes all the credit, I'm embarrassed Tell him, big brother, you taste it, you taste it again!"

At that time, when Guan Ping heard the "shocking" words of his fourth brother Guan Lin, he just felt that...the fourth brother was simply cheating on his father.

Black is all-pervasive...

The black thing is "bringing great filial piety"!

But now... Guan Ping has realized it!

Today... according to a military order from his father, he and his fourth brother's method of "making a sound in the east and attacking in the west" and "rushing with light cavalry" to capture Jiangxia is the same as Cao Cao's method of trying to capture the white horse back then.

Back then, we were on the banks of the Yanjin River. Cao Jun and Yuan Jun were facing each other across the river. One shouted - "I want to fight over" and the other shouted - "Come here!"

In the end, nothing happened.

Isn't this the same situation under Xiangyang City today?

The purpose of the father commander and the fourth brother was to let Guan Ping build momentum, shout, and attract Cao Jun's attention, creating time for the father commander to seize Jiangxia.

At that time, Cao Cao was the mastermind behind Xun You's advice;

Isn’t it that today’s commander-in-chief, the fourth brother Yun Qi, offers advice?

——"That's it! That's it!"

At this moment, Guan Ping came to a complete realization. He was horrified that his fourth brother could tell the truth about "father beheading Yanliang" early on, and he was even more horrified by the overall situation that his fourth brother and his father had set up!

"Send me military orders——"

Guan Ping immediately did not hesitate.

All the soldiers thought that the eldest son was going to order an attack on the city, and all of them looked like bitter gourds...

With infinitely complex and tangled emotions.

It seems that Guan Lin's "terrible" prophecy still hangs over their hearts and continues to expand.

At this moment, their faces were written with four big words - die with joy.

Never thought...

Guan Ping directly ordered, "No more attacking the city. Let's all wave the flag and shout to build momentum! Let the other side of the river think we are attacking the city!"

"In addition, all the soldiers are rushing back and forth, stirring up snow dust all over the sky... so that Xiangyang City cannot clearly see our offensive, and how many of us there are?"

This move of stirring up dust was used by Zhang Fei when he was in Changbanpo.

Coupled with the roar under the Dangyang Bridge and the dust stirred up, it turned out that Cao Cao misjudged and thought that thousands of troops were ambushed.

Now that Guan Ping has learned from others, it is no problem.

Damn...

If you can't take down the siege, forget it, it won't look like acting anymore.

Is Guan Ping worthy of his father, his handsome father, and his fourth brother Yun Qi?

"Why are you still standing there? Go quickly!"

Seeing that everyone was indifferent... Guan Ping gave another order.

At this time, a deputy general boldly asked: "Today we are making food at three o'clock, and we are going to rush on the fifth o'clock. Guan Gong ordered the eldest son to lead the vanguard army here. Don't we... not attack the city?"

There was a huge question mark on the lieutenant's face.

"Haha..." Guan Ping smiled, feeling extremely sad.

He took out two military orders in a row and threw them to the deputy general, "Look carefully. Did my father's military orders ever contain the word 'siege the city'?"

ah…

As soon as this statement came out.

The five thousand officers and soldiers of the Guan family were extremely surprised at first.

But soon, the surprise disappeared and they fell into another extreme emotion.

It is understanding, relief, and a feeling of sadness.

The complexity of their original emotions disappeared, replaced by... faces that had regained their fighting spirit and luster. Each of them regained their energy and became excited.

In just an instant, the five thousand Guan family troops cheered up.

It turns out that this is not a frying pan, they are just feinting... They don't have to die, and Guan Gong doesn't have to be dead.

Their five thousand Guan family troops were just acting!

hehe!

hehe!

Although the Guan family's military exercises are not particularly professional, they like this task!

Everyone immediately took action quickly.

Snowflakes are still flying.

The heavy snow showed no sign of stopping, and the five thousand Guan family troops shouted in unison.

——"Kill! Kill!"

"Dong dong dong -" The drums sounded like thunder for a while, and there was a sense of déjà vu as black clouds were closing in on the city.

The snow dust sweeping on the ground made it impossible for Xiangyang City and Cao Jun's Tanma on the other side of the Jingjiang River to see clearly. How many people are there in this Guan family army?

On the Guan Jiajun's cheeks, they roared and showed a sad smile at the same time.

--happiness!

——Happiness comes too suddenly!
