Chapter 773: Defeat at Maicheng (1)
"Yes, yes, we all know that Senior Guan Yu never kills the old or the young, so you naturally wouldn't do something like massacring a city," Li Wu echoed, silently saying in her heart, but Guan Yu also had a small knife, hehe, this was not something she said, it was just, ahem, she saw it while watching the video.
Just kidding though.
"Liu Bei's army and Cao Cao's army were both fighting for Hanzhong, and Cao Cao's general Xiahou Yuan was killed by Liu Bei's general Huang Zhong.
Boss Cao personally led the army to fight for Hanzhong. Liu Bei defended it to the death, and Huang Zhong robbed food and grass on the Han River.
In the end, Boss Cao had to withdraw from Hanzhong in disgrace, and Liu Bei was able to occupy Hanzhong.
In July of the same year, Liu Bei proclaimed himself King of Hanzhong.
Don't mention it, I actually admire Senior Liu Bei very much, he is really too strong, just like an indestructible cockroach! "
When Guan Yu heard the little immortal praising his lord, he was happier than when he was praising himself. He had been with his lord for many years and naturally knew what kind of person he was.
If it wasn't good, why would Guan Yu stay by his side?
As for those who say that the lord is hypocritical and pretending, they don’t understand the lord. If he is pretending, he will have to pretend for the rest of his life, right?
They simply didn't understand how good their lord was, and he didn't want to bother with those people.
"What do you mean, little immortal?" Yan Zhenqing asked. He knew a little about Liu Bei and knew that he was a kind person who valued friendship and loyalty.
Where does this strength come from?
He really had no idea what the invincible cockroach meant.
Yang Zaixing just ate and listened to them. He knew something about the characters who had appeared before, but he only knew their names and did not know much about them. He did not have the time to read history. He was so busy fighting every day that he had no time to learn anything.
“Just think about it, Senior Liu Bei started his business in his twenties, ahem, he just wanted to restore the Han Dynasty. During this period, he was on the run and didn’t have a piece of territory of his own. When he finally got one, it was gone again. It was not until he was in his forties that he finally got a piece of territory the size of a palm. If it were someone else, after experiencing so many setbacks and failures, they would have given up long ago and would not have thought about restoring the Han Dynasty. But Senior Liu Bei, he still didn’t give up. Isn’t that strong enough?” Ask yourself, how could you withstand so many blows?
If it were other people, many of them would have collapsed and given up.
Anyway, if it were her, don't say anything. She would want to give up and escape as soon as she encountered a little difficulty and she dared not to face it.
Alas, others can stand up again after falling down, but she just wanted to die halfway after falling down and didn’t want to get up at all.
Of course, she wouldn't tell her ancestors about her depressed mood, as that would have a very bad impact.
"You are right, little immortal. The person I admire most in my life is my lord," Guan Yu couldn't help but think of the previous days, when he really had no place to stay.
After listening to this, Yan Zhenqing nodded, and when Yang Zaixing heard this, he couldn't help but admire Liu Bei. This man was indeed very powerful.
There are various opinions about Liu Bei in the barrage, but after listening to what the little immortal said, it is true. Liu Bei only had his own land in his later years, and not long after that, he passed away.
But Cao Cao just thought that Liu Bei was pretentious and hypocritical.
The comments were even more polarized. Those who liked it spoke well of Liu Bei, while those who didn't like it did all kinds of bad things to criticize Liu Bei.
When Liu Bei heard the words of the little immortal, his eyes couldn't help but turn red. That was exactly the case.

"Let's continue talking about your deeds, Senior Guan Yu," Li Wu said helplessly. Why did he go off topic again? "At that time, Senior Guan Yu was appointed as the front general, and Huang Zhong was the rear general. When the official seal was delivered to Senior Guan Yu, Senior Guan Yu was very dissatisfied.
Because Huang Zhong's status is the same as yours, I refuse to appoint him.
But after some persuasion, Senior Guan Yu finally accepted it.
Afterwards, Senior Guan Yu yourself led the army to attack Lü Chang in Xiangyang and Cao Ren in Fancheng. The rear was guarded by Nanjun Prefect Mi Fang in Jiangling, and General Fu Shiren was stationed in Gong'an.
Senior Guan Yu, you were shot in the forehead by Pang De, a general of Cao, during the battle.
After Boss Cao withdrew from the battlefield in Hanzhong, he immediately sent Yu Jin to lead seven armies of 30,000 people to rescue Fancheng.
At this time, Fancheng had not yet been surrounded by you, Senior Guan Yu, and Cao Ren ordered Yu Jin and Pang De to station in the north of Fancheng.
In August of the same year, it rained for more than ten days. Senior Guan Yu took advantage of the surging Han River to attack it by boat, and forced Yu Jin to surrender. Pang De was captured.
Senior Guan Yu, you wanted to appoint Pang De as a general, but was rejected, so you killed Pang De.
You will escort Yu Jin and other 30,000 infantry and cavalry to Jiangling.
At this point, the Cao army that came to rescue Fancheng was completely wiped out, and Fancheng, where Cao Ren was stationed, was also in danger.
After Yu Jin's seven armies were annihilated, many bandits from the south of Xudu accepted your title and supported you.
Even the Governor of Jingzhou and the Prefect of Nanxiang appointed by Boss Cao joined you, Guan Yu. For a time, your influence was so great that it inspired all of China.
At that time, Senior Guan Yu was so majestic, but later, alas, it is another story that many people know, the defeat at Maicheng."
When Yan Zhenqing heard this, he looked as if he understood.
Many ancestors in front of the sky curtain also knew about this. Guan Yu was a famous military general, so many people knew something about his deeds, especially the military generals.
Although many military generals do not like reading very much, they know a lot about famous military generals in history, including some of the ones they admire and like.
"Defeated at Maicheng!" Guan Yu looked at the little immortal with his pupils dilated.
"Senior Guan Yu, please listen carefully to what the immortal says and eat," Yang Zaixing picked up some food for Guan Yu and said, he wanted to listen carefully.
Guan Yu nodded. He also wanted to know how he was defeated later.
"At that time, the news that Yu Jin's army was annihilated quickly spread back to Chang'an.
Boss Cao, who had just suffered a defeat in the Battle of Hanzhong at that time, actually wanted to move the capital to avoid the attack from Senior Guan Yu.
However, Sima Yi, Jiang Ji and others dissuaded him, saying that Sun Quan certainly did not want to see Senior Guan Yu succeed, so they could first agree to use Jiangnan for his grandson, and let Sun Quan attack Senior Guan Yu from behind.
In short, in order to break the siege of Fancheng, Boss Cao and Sun Quan formed an alliance.
At the same time, Boss Cao also ordered Xu Huang to lead troops to Fancheng to rescue Cao Ren, and ordered Zhang Liao to rescue Cao Ren as soon as possible.
Boss Cao also came up with an idea to kill two birds with one stone. He wrote a letter to Sun Quan, persuading Sun Quan to take advantage of the empty rear of Jingzhou and attack Jingzhou that was seized by Liu Bei.
In this way, once you, Senior Guan Yu, hear that Jingzhou will not be taken, you will definitely withdraw from Fancheng, and the siege of Fancheng will naturally be lifted.
Later, Boss Cao adopted Dong Zhao's strategy and wanted to make you, Guan Yu, and Sun Quan fight each other. He also asked the post station to deliver Sun Quan's letter to the front line and shoot the letter arrow to you, Guan Yu.
After seeing this, Senior Guan Yu, you were hesitant, but you did not choose to withdraw.
There are many reasons, of course.”
