Chapter 495 The Battle of Shouchun

"Rumble." As soon as Ji Ling killed Wei Zhongdao and stabilized the army's heart, he heard the deafening sound of horses' hoofs in the distance. Where the smoke and dust rolled, a man and horse had already killed him. He saw the first one, with a red face and long beard, wearing a dark green robe and a green dragon moon knife in his hand, running towards this side.

"Please watch Yuan Shu here. I'll go to the front and have a look." Seeing someone killing him, Ji Ling hurriedly arranged for Cui Zhen to control Yuan Shu and led his troops to the front.

"Ji Ling, Yuan Shu has gone. Shouchun will be owned by my brother. Why don't you surrender immediately? When will it be?" Guan Yu went to the front of the battle. When he saw Ji Ling fighting, he shouted in a loud voice. This time, when he learned that Zhang Liao and Lv Bu led troops into the boundary of Yangzhou one after another, Liu Bei had already come here to seize the fruit of victory and occupy Yangzhou. Therefore, he came with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei non-stop. He happened to meet Yuan Shu's escape. Ji Ling rebelled, and he was willing to let go of such a good opportunity.

"Ha ha, it turned out to be General Guan Yu, but it's unfortunate that you came here. A family has decided to join the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister's people will arrive soon. Please also ask General Guan Yu to retreat and camp, so as not to hurt the harmony of the two armies." Hearing Guan Yu's words, Ji Ling laughed. Ji Ling knew that Liu Bei had conquered Yuan Shu under the order of Lv Bu. At this time, he surrendered to Lv Bu, and Liu Bei and others were also their own people, but they were not worried about what Guan Yu would do.

"So it is." Hearing Ji Ling's words, Guan Yu was shocked and angry. Did he slow down another step on his side and could only watch Lv Bu occupy Yangzhou and control Yuan Shu's old department? Guan Yu is really unwilling, but in the face of such a situation, even if he is unwilling, what can he do? Did you turn against Lv Bu? Guan Yu did not dare to make the decision without discussing such consequences with Liu Bei.

"Hmm, bastards, you dare to talk wildly. We are ordered by the court to fight against the rebels. How can we stop just because you say a word? If you say that you have surrendered to the Prime Minister, then take out the generals of the Prime Minister, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." Guan Yu was still hesitating, but he heard a loud voice behind him. He saw a man behind him coming out. There was no need to lose his face. He was holding a double-stranded sword, but it was Guan Yu's eldest brother Liu Bei.

"You bastard, how dare you deceive me? I almost fell for you, and the thief paid my life." Hearing Liu Bei's words, Guan Yu immediately understood what Liu Bei meant. This was to take advantage of Lv Bu's opportunity to kill Ji Ling to collect Yuan Shujun and control Shouchun City. As long as he did it quickly enough, even if Lv Bu came and the wood was already finished, what could Lv Bu do? After figuring this out, Guan Yu no longer hesitated. He came out and fought with Ji Ling.

"Guan Yu, do you want to rebel against the Prime Minister's general order by doing this?" Seeing Guan Yu cut with a knife, Ji Ling quickly picked up the three-pointed two-edged knife to block it, and then said fiercely.

"The demons confuse the crowd, and eat me again." Guan Yu was willing to let go, and another knife came. The two of them came and went, and there was no winner. Guan Yu was anxious. The long knife in his hand was better than a knife, but he still couldn't take down Ji Ling.

"Well, that's all for today's war. When the Prime Minister arrives, it will naturally be known. Seeing that he was slowly restrained by Guan Yu and dominated, Ji Ling was unwilling to continue to fight with Guan Yu. He just wanted to wait for Lv Bu to come and dedicate Yuan Shu and Shouchun City to Lv Bu, which would naturally be a great achievement.

"The thief, don't go, look at my eight snake spears." At this moment, Ji Ling dodged and was about to leave. A person in the oblique thorn came out, and the eight snake spear in his hand was flexible and winding, and the attack was like waves shaking, attacking Ji Ling. This person is not someone else, but Zhang Fei, Liu Bei's third brother.

"Bold, how dare you attack me? The Prime Minister will smash you into ten thousand pieces when he knows it." At first, when he heard that Liu Bei didn't believe his words, Ji Ling only thought that Liu Bei was cautious and did not trust others easily. As long as Lv Bu arrived, the misunderstanding of the two families could be solved. Who would have thought that Zhang Fei suddenly attacked him. It was only at this time that Ji Ling finally understood that Liu Guanzhang wanted his own life, but at this time Ji Ling wanted to resist Zhang Fei's sneak attack again, but it was a little late. Ji Ling's trident trembled, he only caught the two spears stabbed by Zhang Fei, and then only heard two "poof" Ji Ling and saw that there were still two more blood holes in his chest. The bright red blood flowed out of the two blood holes, gradually diluting the clever life.

"Puff, poo, poo." The eight snake spears in Zhang Fei's hand kept shaking. Several blood holes appeared on Ji Ling's body. Then Ji Ling looked up to the sky and roared, staggered under the horse, and his body gradually became cold.

"Hmm, let you help Zhou to abuse, you should have this report long ago." Looking at Ji Ling who fell to the ground, Zhang Fei snorted coldly.

"Brothers, kill the traitors with me and capture Shouchun City." Seeing Ji Ling's death, Yuan Shujun was in chaos. Liu Bei roared, and the sound of killing behind him rose. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei came out from both sides of Liu Bei and attacked Yuan Shujun.

Previously, Ji Ling rebelled, killing Wei Zhongdao first, and then holding Yuan Shu, which had made Yuan Shu's army's army's heart fluctuate. At this time, Ji Ling died. Yuan Shu was also controlled by Cui Zhen and retreated to the rear. Yuan Shu's army was unmanded for a while, which was even more chaotic. The three brothers of Liu Guan and Zhang led the team so rushed that they were destroyed and killed like a decade. When it fell, the original huge army collapsed in an instant, and the soldiers fled separately. What's more, they directly took advantage of the chaos to rob the convoys in the army. Yuan Shu looted the people's oil for many years, and was swept away by the chaotic army for a while.

"Brother, Yuan Shu's military horse is also so unbeatable. Why was it defeated so soon?" Seeing that it was just an impact on his side, Yuan Shujun was defeated. The rest of the soldiers and horses fled separately without their own efforts. Zhang Fei was a little stunned and said to Liu Bei with a smile.

"Yuan Shu is arrogant and luxurious**, and does not win the hearts of the people. At this time, he is defeated. Naturally, no one is willing to continue to work for him, and he can only have a tragic end of defeat and death. However, these are not important to us. At present, what we have to do is to take Shouchun City, subdue Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses, and then annex Yangzhou. Even if Lv Bu comes, there is nothing we can do about it. After saying that, Liu Bei's horse moved forward, and the soldier pointed straight to Shouchun. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei then caught up, and a group of people went straight to Shouchun.

Liu Bei came all the way. When he arrived outside Shouchun City, he saw a group of soldiers escorting Yuan Shu's frame to enter the city, and then the gate of Shouchun City was closed, blocking Liu Bei and others out of the gate.

Where is Yuan Shu? If you want to live, don't go out of the city and surrender quickly. Do you want our army to go into the city and kill you all? Seeing such a scene, Zhang Fei first went out and shouted at the top of the tower.

"Hahaha, General Zhang Fei, I'm afraid you're coming too late. This Shouchun City has been occupied by me." At this time, I heard someone roaring on the tower, and then a figure appeared on the Shouchun city tower. This person, Liu Guanzhang, knew him. This person was none other than anyone else, but Zhang Liao, the general of Lv Bujun, who had killed all the way from Yanzhou.

"Why do the general have to be polite to them? We might as well kill him directly and kill him." At this time, another person appeared behind Zhang Liao, but this person was Hua Xiong, who had been following Zhang Liao.

It turned out that after Cui Zhen got the trust of Ji Ling, he placed people everywhere in Shouchun City to welcome the arrival of Lv Bu's army at any time. However, Yuan Shu led his troops to evacuate Shouchun. Cui Zhen followed Ji Ling and set out, and then sent a message to Zhang Liao and Lv Bu at the same time. Just as Liu Guan and Zhang killed Ji Ling, Zhang Liao's people were just right. He rushed to Shouchun City and soon controlled Shouchun City, which was the reason why Cui Zhen withdrew to Shouchun with Yuan Shu all the way.

"General Hua Xiong, don't be impatient. Liu Guan and Zhang are the heroes of the world. We attack rashly and are not sure of victory. It's better to firmly control Shouchun City. When the Prime Minister arrives, it will be a great achievement." Zhang Liao shook his head and did not agree with Hua Xiong's suggestion.

Looking at Liu Guan and Zhang outside the city, Hua Xiong's eyes fluctuated and shrank silently. Although Hua Xiong wanted to find Guan Yu's bad luck and avenge him that day, he was not sure that he could win. What's more, Guan Yu had a more powerful Zhang Fei around him.

"Brother, our army killed Ji Ling. The morale is strong. It's better to attack the city immediately." Zhang Fei looked at Zhang Liao and Hua Xiong at the top of the city and suggested to Liu Bei beside him.

"Don't panic, third brother. Zhang Liao is extraordinary. Let me say a few words to him and see if I can convince this person." Liu Bei hadn't answered yet, but Guan Yu, who was beside him, stepped forward to stop him.

Then he saw Zhang Liao, who dared to face the top of the tower, and said, "General Zhang Liao, although you and I are our masters, Guan is very admired by the general. He knows that the general is a loyal and righteous man. Now Lv Bu is in power, why doesn't the general give up secretly and follow my brother and do his part for your majesty and the Han Dynasty. Heart strength?"

"General Guan, you are also a person Zhang Liao admires. Since the chaos of the yellow scarf, the world has been strife and the people have suffered unspeakably. It was not until General Lv Bu was born and deterred the heroes with peerless force that the Han Dynasty had today's atmosphere. If you see that the world has just become unified, and the people have just seen the dawn of peace, why do the general insist on going alone? For the sake of an unimportion, The world is once again led to the abyss of division and war. The general might as well assist the Prime Minister with me. I don't know what the general is going to do to benefit the people of the world together. Guan Yu said that Zhang Liao was orthodox and loyal in the world. He wanted Zhang Liao to surrender to Liu Bei, but Zhang Liao used the well-being of the people in the world to talk about Guan Yu. The two of them were completely tied for a while.

"Second brother and third brother, since Shouchun has been occupied by Lv Bu, let's go." Now Yuan Shu was captured into Shouchun by Cui Zhen, and Shouchun City has also been occupied by Zhang Liao. Hearing that Cao Cao was also trapped by Lv Bu, Liu Bei's sense of crisis suddenly became much greater. He could only turn around and leave, arrange defense first, and prepare for Lv Bu's possible attack.
