When Ma Chaobing retreated to Qingzhou, Xiahoudun was fighting with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in front, but he sent a messenger to send a letter to Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei is also the second King Kong of the Zhang, who is confused. I thought to myself, isn't it that Xiahou Yuanrang feels that he can't win the fight, and wants to talk to me?

When I opened the letter, I learned that Ma Chao raided the rear of Yanzhou, captured Chenliu County, and captured Xiahoudun's nephew Xiahou Shang. Xiahoudun didn't do anything else this time, but he interceded for Xiahoushang.

Zhang Fei finished reading the letter and felt quite embarrassed. Speaking of which, Xiahou Shang is still his brother-in-law. Zhang Fei has a deep relationship with his wife Xiahou, and the babies are born one after another, if this Xiahou Shang is not saved, he is afraid that he will be complained about when he goes back. So Zhang Fei wrote a letter to Liu Bei, asking Liu Bei to let Ma Chao's subordinates show mercy and save Xiahou Shang from dying. As for returning Xiahou Shang, Zhang Fei never mentioned it. He thought to himself, let this kid go back, and then bring troops to fight me? It just so happened that his wife came to Qingzhou and often missed her relatives in Yuzhou. It's better to leave Xiahou Shang in Qingzhou, and Mrs. has a relative to accompany him to talk. It can also relieve nostalgia a little.

Ma Chao led his troops back to Qingzhou, and without removing his armor, he went to see Liu Bei and came to pay the order.

Liu Bei met Ma Chao in the study and said with a smile: "Meng Qi went south to Yanzhou, and it was hard all the way. ”

Ma Chao lowered his head and said: "The general of the defeated army, don't dare to say bitterness." ”

Liu Bei put away his smile, looked at Ma Chao seriously, and said, "Meng Qi's words are wrong. Outnumbered, defeat is normal. You led your troops south, designed to capture Xiahou, beheaded Ren Jun, broke through Chenliu, and took all his food. All of this is very comforting to me. Cao Zixiao is one of the best generals under Meng De, and has dominated the world for many years. Even if Yun Chang and Yide and others came, they were outnumbered, and they didn't dare to say that they would win. Why should Meng Qi be arrogant? ”

Liu Bei knew that Ma Chao was not the peerless general at this time, and he had not yet been thoroughly polished. At this time, it can only be encouraged, not attacked. Otherwise, it will cost Ma Chao the sharpness in his chest, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

When Ma Chao heard Liu Bei say this, the haze was swept away in his heart, and it began to be cloudy and sunny.

Liu Bei said again: "Meng Qi, you will send that Xiahou Shang to my mansion later." ”

Seeing Ma Chao looking at him, Liu Bei smiled and said: "That Xiahou Shang is Yide's wife and brother, Xiahou Yuanrang learned that he fell into the hands of Meng Qi, so he sent a letter to Yide, begging Xiahou Shang to be spared." Edder sent me the letter. Liu Bei also found it quite interesting.

When Ma Chao heard this, he was surprised in his heart, so he hurriedly responded.

After returning to the camp, Ma Chao asked Xiahou Shang to bring him up, and after Xiahou Shang saw Ma Chao, he stood tall and said: "Ma Chao, if you want to kill, you will kill, I, Xiahou Shangruo, frowned, I am not a good man." ”

Ma Chao seemed to be smiling, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you are General Zhang's brother-in-law, who dares to kill you?" When you have packed up, you will enter the palace to meet the general. ”

Xiahou Shang was stunned at first, but when he reacted, his face couldn't help but turn red when he thought that General Zhang was Zhang Fei. He really wanted to say who wants to be Zhang Fei's brother-in-law? The puppet who robbed the people's daughter! It's just that Ma Chao was too lazy to talk to Xiahou Shang anymore, so he directly asked people to send him out.

Juping, when he learned of Cao Ren's arrival, the enemy and the enemy suddenly had a new move. Xiahoudun and Man Chong began to hold on, but Guan Yu and Tai Shici no longer waited, but decided to attack immediately, and take the lead in solving the Juping defenders before Cao Ren arrived.

Just when the war was about to break out, Tian Feng sent a letter. In the letter, Guan Yu and the others were asked to find a way to feint to attack Juping and besiege Zang Ba first. Try your best to solve the Zang hegemony force first.

In the letter, Tian Feng made the following points. First, Xiahoudun has the city as the backing, and it is not easy to attack the city. The second is that Zang Ba is not Cao Cao's descendant, in Cao Cao's system, he is quite excluded, Cao Cao is fine when he is here, Cao Cao is far away from Yizhou, and Zang Ba's life is definitely not as good as before. So take this opportunity to fight Zang Ba first. The third is that Zang Ba is the head snake of Yanzhou, and if he does not beat Zang Ba first, in the future in the battle for Yanzhou, Zang Ba will definitely cause huge trouble to his army......

Historically, after Cao Pi ascended the throne, he used the name of the Southern Expedition to Eastern Wu to clean up Zang Ba's forces. Several times it was said that it was an attack on Eastern Wu, but each time it stopped at Guangling, and never crossed the river. The deep meaning is enough to make people reminisce. Although Yanzhou is in crisis now, who can guarantee that at this time, Yanzhou will definitely work together? As long as you are human, you will have selfishness. The troops under the command of Xiahoudun suffered heavy losses, while Zang Ba's troops were strong. Not to mention deliberately excluding Zang Ba, just let him share some more "heavy responsibilities".

At this time, Zang Ba was confronting Zhang Fei outside the snake hill, blocking the possibility of him attacking Juping.

After receiving Tian Feng's letter, Guan Yu discussed with Tai Shici and approved the plan. Guan Yu said to Tai Shici: "Ziyi, this battle should be resolved quickly. After this battle, I wanted to lead the army south and return to Xuzhou, so as not to change Yangzhou. "He has been in Yanzhou long enough, and although the Yangzhou defense line is well guarded by Chen Deng and Gan Ning, he is still a little uneasy.

Sun Wentai is scheming, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and others are newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers, Yunwen Yunwu, brave and strategic, who knows what will happen to them if they don't say a word in the south.

So after consulting with Tai Shici, the Battle of Juping began.

After the convergence of Xiahoudun and Manchu Pet. Because there is no danger in the back road, I am not worried about the Han army attacking the city at all. As long as it is not a lonely city, Xiahoudun believes that with his and his full favor, there will be no problem in guarding him for a few years.

In the wilderness outside the city, the Han army surged like a tide, and countless siege equipment slowly advanced, and after reaching their attack range, they began to exert their might. Xiahoudun was not stubbornly defending the city, he and Man Zhong led the elite out of the city from time to time, destroying siege vehicles and other equipment that posed a serious threat to the city. At this time, a desperate struggle began around the head of the city and the city. A tragic war began.

At the end of the day, the ground was covered with crushed flesh, and the wind blew, and the bloody wind was disgusting. Many of the corpses could no longer be put together, so the soldiers who cleaned the battlefield had to use shovels to shovel up the mud mixed with flesh and blood, and then throw them into the pit and burn them together.

During the onslaught of the whole day, every time the Han army attacked the city, it was driven down by the Cao army. Guan Yu looked at the head of the city, and he was also silent. The battle of attacking and defending the city is an extremely long process. In this process, in addition to courage and wisdom, the more important thing for the two sides is patience. Whoever can endure until the end and then catch the flaw will win.

But Guan Yu couldn't wait that long. Cao Ren is about to arrive. He couldn't drag it out any longer. So after another day of siege battles, Guan Yu said goodbye to Tai Shici. He still left his banner and half of his men under Juping City, but he led thousands of elites and quietly sneaked to Zhang Fei's side.
