Chapter 297 Look, that’s the horse archer Guan Yu!

Chapter 297: Liu Wu has returned. Who in the world doesn't know you? !
The Jiangdong ship slowly approached the shore.

The soldiers disembarked one by one.

After about two hundred soldiers landed, the king's flag moved and Sun Zhongmou also began to disembark.

Both feet landed,

As soon as he stepped onto the soil in Hefei, Sun Quan felt extremely at ease.

In the past, I came here to attack Hefei, but this time I came here to protect Hefei. I didn’t have those thoughts in my mind, so I actually had a sense of openness.

However, he had only taken two steps.

The events that had happened several times outside Hefei came to mind one by one, and I even had a bad feeling.

"Forget it, let Guan Yu come to pick me up personally." Thinking this in his mind, Sun Quan turned around and was about to return to the boat.

At the same time, Zhang Liao, who was hiding in the dark, could no longer hold his breath, because he saw clearly that the flag was the royal flag of Sun, the King of Wu.

that person,
I roughly estimate it to be Sun Quan.

But Sun Quan had just landed and hadn’t even taken two steps forward, and he wanted to go back?

"rush!!"

Zhang Wenyuan did not wait any longer. With a command, the soldiers lying in ambush on both sides of the shore no longer hid and rushed forward.

"kill!!"

"Kill!!~"

Under the moonlit night, Sun Quan was frightened out of his wits. Fortunately, he turned back early and saw that the ship was only a few feet away. He quickly ran to the ship, muttering: "I knew it was a trick! I knew it was a trick! I knew someone was trying to harm me!"

After much haste, we finally got on the ship.

Zhang Liao's troops also arrived.

The ship turned around quickly.

Sun Quan saw Zhang Wenyuan, and Zhang Wenyuan also saw Zhang Liao.

"It's indeed Sun Zhongmou!" Zhang Liao became excited. While the tower ship was still there, he led his men to wade through the water and catch up.

"Fire arrows!"

"Shoot arrows!!"

"Release the arrows!"

Brush, brush, brush! ~
A hail of arrows was rained down, and dozens of people led by Zhang Liao were all hit by arrows. Those with minor injuries ran to the shore, while those with serious injuries fell directly into the water and did not move, and then floated up.

It was all crimson everywhere.

In a moment,

Sun Zhongmou suddenly pointed at a floating corpse below and said, "But the general just now, go check it out and see if he still has any breath..."

"We still have to torture them to find out who they belong to."

"Guan Yu shouldn't have done this to me. Could it be that Hefei City has fallen into the hands of Cao's army..."

Three or four Jiangdong soldiers jumped off the deck.
"My lord, this is General Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan!"

Someone recognized it.

After all, Zhang Liao was a famous general in the world, and he had stayed in Hefei for quite a while, so many soldiers in Jiangdong knew it.

Sun Quan asked on the boat: "Is this guy still alive?"

The soldier in the water reported: "There is still breath!"

Sun Quan: "Okay, bring this guy to me now!"

Soon,

Zhang Liao, with two arrows stuck in his shoulders, was dragged onto the deck by the Jiangdong soldiers.

but,

Without waiting for Sun Quan to investigate,
Zhang Wenyuan suddenly jumped up.
Within three or five steps, he grabbed Sun Quan with one hand and jumped into the lake together.

The Jiangdong soldiers did not dare to shoot arrows, and they all jumped into the water to chase him. However, the distance to the shore was too short. In a moment, before the Jiangdong soldiers could catch up, Zhang Liao held the King of Wu hostage and swam to the shore in the water...

"Wen, Wenyuan, you, you hurt me..." Sun Quan's neck was strangled and he felt unable to breathe.

……

……

The next day,

Dawn!

North of Hefei,

Cao's army left the camp.
The neatly-formed square formations continued to advance towards Hefei City, getting closer and closer.
Five miles.

Four miles!

Three miles!

Two miles! Only one mile left...

Hula Lala! ! ~
A hail of arrows shot from the top of the city.
Countless arrows were deeply embedded in the ground.

Herod!
Cao Hong reined in his horse and stopped, gazing at the top of the city wall.

Full of favor,

Zhang He
Generals including Lu Chang all arrived.

"Guan Yu, you must know what is right and wrong. This city of Hefei was originally given by the King of Wei to the King of Chu. It is only natural that we should take it back now!"

"Now that the army is approaching, you should quickly retreat back to Jingzhou!"

"We all know that the King of Wei has a history with you. When we captured the city, we killed you. We can't explain to the King of Wei!"

"Retreat quickly and leave this city!"

Facing the shouts of the generals below the city, Guan Yu smashed his crescent-shaped sword against the top of the city wall: "You traitors, you chicken-stealing and dog-stealing people, if you dare to take a step forward, I, Guan Yu, will chop off your dog heads with my Qinglong sword..."

Cao Hong, who was standing under the city, was furious at Guan Yu's statement. He then pointed at the top of the city wall and laughed, "Everyone, look, look, look!"

"Do you see that man on the top of the city?"

"He is the horse archer Guan Yu from back then!"

"Ha ha ha ha!!"

The people below the city immediately burst into laughter...

Guan Yu on the city wall was furious: "I will lead 2,000 soldiers out of the city and kill this beast!"

"Yunchang, you can't do that!" A man stood in front of Guan Yu. It was Xu Shu, Xu Yuanzhi.

After Xu Shu delivered the imperial edict to Liu Bei, Jian Yong, Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang discussed and believed that it was not appropriate for Guan Yu to stay alone in Hefei, mainly because he was afraid of being stabbed in the back by Jiangdong.

I think we should send a counselor to assist us, just like Pang Tong and Zhang Fei.

Xu Shu recommended himself because he had a good relationship with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Zhuge Liang might not be able to persuade Guan Yu, but Xu Shu could.

Finally, Kong Ming and several others jointly wrote a letter and sent it to Lu Xun of Gong'an. With Lu Xun's approval, Xu Shu was able to go to Hefei from the court in Xuchang in the name of rewarding the troops in Huainan.

That’s right, it was approved by Lu Xun.

The core of the Han Dynasty is the imperial court.

The ones who controlled him were Liu Wu and Cao Cao. Zhuge Liang, Jian Yong and others were the permanent representatives of Liu Wu's forces in the court.

And Liu Wu's center,

But it was in that small public security city.

The person who holds the military and political power of all states, including food and fodder supply, personnel recruitment, logistical supply, etc., is that inconspicuous young man, just twenty years old, even younger than Liu Wu, Lu Boyan!

Of course, Xu Shu's mother was also taken to the Prime Minister's Mansion by Zhuge Liang, otherwise how could she dare to escape from Cao Cao's control?

"Yunchang is the main general in the city. If the general leaves the city, what will happen if something goes wrong?" Xu Shu was still advising.

……

……

The extreme west of Liangzhou,

Dunhuang County.

To the west of Dunhuang is Yangguan.

There are two passes in Dunhuang, Yangguan and Yumenguan.

One in the south and one in the north, Yangguan is the passage to the southern route to the Western Regions, and Yumenguan leads to the northern route.

Now, inside the Yumen Gate, Han Sui, the governor of Liang Province, was looking around. He was sweating and his face was covered in dust. He had just arrived at Yangguan.

Previously, they had been stationed in Jincheng.
Until a scout reported that the army would return in a day or two.

So they hurried over to welcome the returning royal army.

"Here they come!" Han Sui, standing on the top of the city wall, saw some black spots from afar, getting closer and closer.

Coming from the southern route of the Western Regions, approaching Yangguan...

Whoosh! ~
The King of Chu's banner was fluttering in the strong wind from the northwest!

Liu Wu, who was on the camel, looked at the sun in the distance and couldn't help but said, "I'm back..."

"came back……"

"Taishi Ziyi, we are back."

On the camel was a piece of horse skin wrapped with Taishi Ci's body inside.

Looking down from the air, the Han army returning eastward was like a black line, entering the eye of the needle at Yangguan Pass...

Advise Jun to make a glass of wine even more, and there is no reason for him to go out of Yangguan.

Returning from the west to the east, I met old acquaintances everywhere after entering Yangguan Pass. Who in the world doesn't know you? !
　Fixed it, sorry.
