Li Yi led his troops to attack Yancheng.
The guard general of Yancheng is Guan Ping, the son of Guan Yu. Because he received the true biography of Guan Yu, his sword skills are superb. Although he cannot reach the state of Zhenhua, he can still be considered to be 70 or 80% skilled. The only difference is that he has enough practical experience. This This was also the reason why Guan Yu asked him to guard Yancheng alone.
Guan Ping is also eager to prove his ability.
After learning that Jing's army had taken the initiative to attack, the enemy general Li Yi led three thousand troops to kill him. He immediately led his troops out of the city to meet the enemy.
When the two formations faced each other, Guan Ping rushed out and pointed his knife at Li Yi opposite him: "Who is coming? Tell me your name. I will not kill unknown people!"
Li Yi sneered and said, "General Guan is not old, and his tone is not small. I am General Fenwei Li Yi, and I am here to take your head."
At that time, Guan Yu made a surprise attack on Nanyang, causing Chen Wu to be defeated and killed. Fancheng was in danger at that time and was almost destroyed. Fortunately, with the help of Li Dan, Li Yi, the top military scholar, stepped forward to take charge of the overall situation, and then Fancheng was saved. Guarding the gate of Nanyang has prevented Guan Yu's army from taking a step deeper.
After Zhang Xiu learned of Li Yi's move, he admired his talents very much, promoted Li Yi to the rank of General Fenwei, and assigned three thousand soldiers and horses to his subordinates.
Guan Ping was furious, slapped his horse with a knife and killed him.
The two fought for less than 20 rounds. Li Yi pretended to be defeated, sold his flaw, and hurriedly turned around and ran away. How could Guan Ping let go of the military exploits he had obtained, and immediately ordered the army to pursue him.
Less than twenty miles after the pursuit, he suddenly heard that Yancheng was on fire. Guan Ping was shocked and realized that this was a plan of the Jing army. He hurriedly reined in his troops and returned to save Yancheng from danger.
But as soon as he reached the halfway point, Jia Xu, who had been ambushing here for a long time, appeared from both sides.
Jia Xu came in a four-wheeled vehicle, holding a feather fan and wearing a long-sleeved robe. His white beard was fluttering in the night wind. His old eyes were full of energy, and his face was filled with a smile that showed he was ahead of the enemy and was strategizing.
Guan Ping had never seen Jia Xu and didn't know who was on the other side, so he shouted: "Who are you? You dare to block my way!"
Jia Xu said gently: "Guan Ping, you don't know how to die! Jingzhou has been attacked by our army, but you and your father are still arrogant and wanton here."
Guan Ping was furious, but seeing the flames in the city of Yan soaring into the sky, he did not dare to fight with Jia Xu, and ordered his army to attack the city to save the city. Jia Xu smiled calmly and ordered to attack from both sides to intercept the road to Guan Ping.
Later, Li Yi led his troops back to fight.
Guan Ping was attacked from both sides and had no choice but to head towards Zhou Cang's camp, Sizhong Village. Zhou Cang took Guan Ping and sighed: "People say that Jingzhou was captured by Jing's army, and the army is in panic. What can we do?"
Guan Ping firmly refused to believe it: "This must be a lie! The main force of the Jing army is in the Central Plains. How can they spare the troops to attack Jingzhou? Besides, Jingzhou is full of beacons, how can it be easily defeated?"
At this moment, Tan Ma came to report: Li Yi, the commander-in-chief of the Jing Army, led his troops towards Sizhong Village and was already fighting at the first camp of the front camp.
Zhou Cang said in a panic: "This place relies on the Mian River. Jing's army will not dare to come here. You and I will lead our troops to fight out and stop Jing's army."
Guan Ping nodded and immediately led his troops to fight out.
Unexpectedly, after Jia Xu led his troops and horses to raid, he saw Guan Ping and Zhou Cang surrounded halfway. Li Yi also gave up attacking the first camp and took advantage of the cavalry to attack the Chu army in a detour.
Guan Ping and Zhou Cang were defeated and fled towards Guan Yu's garrison.
After learning that Guan Ping and Zhou Cang were defeated and lost Yancheng and Sizhong Village, they were surprised and asked: "Why are you two so helpless and lost Yancheng and Sizhong Village one after another?"
Guan Ping said: "During the battle tonight, I met an old man with a white beard among the Jing army. He may be a counselor of the Jing army."
Guan Yu frowned and thought, then put on his armor and raised the Qinglong Yanyue Sword: "Zhou Cang will stay and guard the camp. Ping'er will follow me out of the camp to meet this man."
So Guan Yu led five thousand soldiers and horses towards Sizhong Village.
At this time, Jia Xu personally led five thousand cavalry to Guan Yu's camp, and the two armies met halfway. Others didn't know Jia Xu, but Guan Yu knew it. The more he knew about him, the more he feared him.
When Guan Yu saw Jia Xu, his heart suddenly became cold.
Jia Xu, the left prime minister of Jingguo, came to Nanyang without knowing it. He didn't know when he came. It reminded him that he had suffered several defeats in succession some time ago. Now that he thinks about it, he was not unjustly defeated.
But what frightened him even more was that Jia Xu was already here, where was Zhang Xiu?
Since the beginning of this battle, Emperor Jing Zhang Xiu has disappeared from the world. Their secret hands can't find any trace of Zhang Xiu. However, the talents used by the Emperor Jing in this battle are really shocking. The three prime ministers of Shang Cheng Pavilion, Two people were directly mobilized, but no trace of Zhang Xiu was known.
For no reason, he felt flustered.
He suppressed the unreasonable panic and asked with a smile: "It turns out that it is Prime Minister Jia who is driving. How disrespectful and disrespectful! It is really a blessing for me to trouble Prime Minister Jia to come here in person."
Jia Xu stood up from the four-wheeled vehicle, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "It is Jia's good fortune to see General Guan again. A general is a wise general, and he who needs to know current affairs is a hero. Today, our emperor is conquering the capital of Chu." , forcing the police to surrender, now most of the nine counties in Jingzhou belong to me, Dajing. Why didn't the general surrender early and serve Dajing? With the general's talent, it is not appropriate to worship the general as a marquis."
Guan Yu turned pale in shock and looked around.
Guan Ping said: "On the road today, I also heard rumors that Jingzhou has failed."
Guan Yu frowned, then stared at Jia Xu and asked, "Xiang Jia, where is Emperor Jingguo Zhang Xiu now?"
Jia Xu smiled calmly: "Now Chu, Beijing and Nanzheng."
Guan Yu was shocked, raised his sword and shouted angrily: "You are the Prime Minister of Jingguo, how dare you confuse the people here with your evil words and disturb the morale of our army. The whole army obeys the order and follows me to kill the enemy!"
So the Chu army, led by Guan Yu, launched an attack on the Jing army.
On the Jingjun side, Li Yi knew that he was no match for Guan Yu, but how could the enemy retreat at this moment? He shot his horse with a gun and killed him. Suddenly, the two armies fell into a melee. Li Yi fell under Guan Yu's sword, but he was already killed in thirty rounds. Every time we fight, we are retreating, and there is always the risk of defeat.
At this time, Li Dan led the soldiers and horses from Fan City to attack in two pincer attacks. Due to darkness, the Chu army was immediately defeated. Guan Yu saw that he was defeated and was afraid that Jia Xu had backup, so he ordered the army to rush to Xiangjiang. Upper class. Behind the scenes, Jia Xu ordered the army to pursue him.
Guan Yu hurriedly ordered the army to cross the Xiangjiang River.
As a result, they had just crossed the Xiangjiang River, and the messenger from Nanjun happened to arrive at the riverside and reported: "Jingzhou has been attacked by the Jing army, and the imperial city has been breached by the enemy. Please ask the general to rescue them quickly."
Guan Yu was shocked when he heard this. He didn't have time to go to Xiangyang, so he gathered his troops and rushed to Nanjun.
As a result, before Guan Yu's army arrived in Nanjun, he heard the news of Fu Shiren's surrender. Guan Yu was furious and vowed to kill Fu Shiren.
But Nanjun was more important, so he rushed to Nanjun non-stop.
