Chapter 1618: The Battle of Xuzhou (214)
Guan Yu's insistence made Liu Lan couldn't help laughing, Guan Yu is a person who admits death, and the things he identifys, even if Liu Lan himself, it is unlikely to change him, the most typical example is that he is looking for Hu Jining, and he has been looking for decades, and Liu Lan has been rejected for many times when he tells him, if he doesn't meet a Zhang Ziyan who likes to drill the horns of the bull more, I'm afraid that Guan Yu is still single.
From this incident, it can be seen that Guan Yu is a person, and he asked Liu Lan to leave, in fact, in this matter, Liu Lan has his own small plate, that is, he hopes that after Guan Yu leaves, he will command the retreat of Yancheng, but now it seems that Guan Yu may have guessed his own careful thoughts, if he does not retreat, maybe he will not really consider sending troops.
He shook his head and had no choice but to compromise, he also knew that Guan Yu would be so careful about this matter, the reason was still where Zhen Jiang was, plus Liu Lan's identity was different now, so his performance would be so excited, if Liu Lan had a good one, the impact would be too great, and he couldn't let such a thing happen anyway.
"In that case, I'll go back to Xuzhou."
The smile on Liu Lan's face disappeared instantly, became a little serious, looked at Guan Yu, and said: "Yun Chang, I will rely on you for this matter, and I will return to Xuzhou now, but you must be careful in the next battle of Xuzhou, I don't ask you to win the battle, but at least we must ensure that we are undefeated, and we can cross the river to Moling, so you don't have too much pressure in this battle, I can accept any result." ”
Liu Lan appeared in Yancheng this time, although it was a condolence to the three armies, but to put it bluntly, it was actually to relieve the pressure on Guan Yu, everyone in the world knew the importance of this battle, Guan Yu naturally knew very well, once he failed, he knew better than anyone what it meant, at this time, the burden of the entire Xuzhou was on his back, although now it seems that Guan Yu seems to be calm and calm, and there is no pressure, but how can these be just what they seem on the surface?
Just like Liu Lan said, in a hurry to let him go back, is it really as simple as these few reasons? Definitely not, otherwise, how could Guan Yu threaten him with not sending troops, even if he had those reasons, it was actually still unexplainable, then there could only be one possibility, that is, although Guan Yu seemed to be sworn by the battle of Xuzhou now, he actually had no bottom in his heart.
So in such a situation, leaving Liu Lan in Yancheng will become extremely dangerous, and he will never allow Liu Lan to be in danger, and it is under this premise that Guan Yu will threaten Liu Lan to return to Xuzhou by refusing to send troops, so Liu Lan will show him the bottom.
Although saying these words in this situation will not have any positive effect on the battle, but will make the generals have other ideas, Liu Lan understands that Guan Yu cannot be allowed to continue to fight under such pressure, and the way to relieve him can only be told from his mouth that this battle is actually far less important than it seems.
If these words were said to others, he might think that Liu Lan was comforting him, but Guan Yu, they have known each other for many years, he understands his own separation, and he also knows that Liu Lan has always been such a person, he attaches great importance to people, but the county is very ordinary, so after saying this, it can be regarded as giving Guan Yu a bottom line, and solving all his worries for him, and the next battle of Xuzhou hopes that he can let go of it, no matter what the result is, he can accept it.
After Liu Lan finished speaking, he stared at Guan Yu and observed his reaction, seeing that his reaction was not very strong, Liu Lan continued: "Okay, you can prepare as soon as possible, I will accompany you to the barracks tomorrow and leave in the afternoon." ”
"No." Guan Yu said.

Three days later, Guan Yu led the main force of the Xuzhou Army to Langya in the north, in order to avoid the eyes and ears, the troops moved forward in disguise, and successfully confused the Wenchou middle road troops.
At the same time as Guan Yu went north, the Qingzhou army began to move, causing the illusion that the main force of Yancheng was going to continue to retreat south to Xuzhou, and a large number of military rations and materials were frequently transported to Xuzhou.
At the time of the rest of the day, Gao Ran received a military order from Wen Chou, for the news that Guan Yu was about to escape, Gao Ran was skeptical, although Wen Chou suspected that this was because Liu Lan had not made up his mind to fight with him, and maybe even for some reason, Guan Yu did not have the strength to fight with him, for such a situation, Wen Chou must not allow Guan Yu's Setshan camp to continue to go south, after all, it was a deep battle in Xuzhou, and the more Guan Yu retreated, the more beneficial it would be for the Setshan camp.
Wen Chou, who doesn't want to have any deviation, naturally can't allow such a situation to occur, once the main force of Xuzhou has been retreating south, then their battle line will be extended, and such a long supply line will be very deadly, on the contrary, if you can fight Guan Yu in Yancheng, regardless of victory or defeat, at least you don't have to think too much about the situation of the supply line.
But after Wen Chou's order was put into Gao Lan's hands, he couldn't understand what Liu Lan and Guan Yu wanted to do, could it be that Liu Lan wanted to repeat his old tricks like he had defeated Dongguan before? The current situation did not allow him to think otherwise, how similar the situation was now, the same retreat all the way, all the way to Dongguan, only to suddenly counterattack, causing his troops to be defeated and returned.
He stared at the map, a little worried, although it was different from what Wen Chou was worried about, but he was obviously more afraid of the adverse consequences caused by the constant pursuit, of course, there was another possibility, that is, Liu Lan really wanted to give up Xuzhou, but this possibility was not great, so Gao Ran was cautious about Wen Chou's order.
Gao Ran looked up at a few generals under his eyes, seeing that they were also silent, Gao Ran didn't ask again, although Gao Ran wanted to know what they thought, but he frowned, these people are cautious personalities, and they will never make conclusions easily.
"I know that everyone can't judge Liu Lan's true intentions, and they don't dare to make judgments easily, but one thing I'm sure of is that Liu Lan will never take the initiative to give up Xuzhou and withdraw to Moling, so Guan Yu's intention to retreat south now is really puzzling, but the grain and grass in Yancheng are continuously transported to Xuzhou in trucks, which almost confirms the fact that they retreated, let's talk about it, what is Guan Yu going to do, or is this itself an illusion, is he trying to make us mistakenly think that he is going to retreat south, relax our vigilance, and kill us by surprise?
Guan Yu's insistence made Liu Lan couldn't help laughing, Guan Yu is a person who admits death, and the things he identifys, even if Liu Lan himself, it is unlikely to change him, the most typical example is that he is looking for Hu Jining, and he has been looking for decades, and Liu Lan has been rejected for many times when he tells him, if he doesn't meet a Zhang Ziyan who likes to drill the horns of the bull more, I'm afraid that Guan Yu is still single.
