Guan Yu took the remnants of the army, stopped and stopped along the way, and did not return to Linxiang City until late at night.

At this moment, Linxiang City was as calm as ever, Guan Yu came to Linxiang City with the remnants of the army, and immediately broke the peace.

After a long journey, Guan Yu and the others were already exhausted, and even the war horse under Guan Yu's seat was already unbearable, panting and snorting.

"Drop the drawbridge, open the gates, I'm back!" Guan Yu came to the bank of the moat and shouted weakly at the soldiers guarding the city tower.

The soldiers vaguely heard Guan Yu's words, held the torch, stretched their necks, and looked out hard, reflecting the faint firelight, they saw Guan Yu's haggard and tired face, when they recognized Guan Yu, they shouted at the others: "It's General Guan who is back, quickly put down the drawbridge and open the city gate......"

After a short time, the suspension bridge of Linxiang City was slowly lowered, the city gate was also opened, and a group of soldiers lined up to go out of the city, standing in line on both sides of the road, waiting for Guan Yu and others to enter the city.

One of the military horses guarding the city gate walked towards Guan Yu, and after seeing Guan Yu, he bowed respectfully to Guan Yu.

Seeing this, Guan Yu asked, "What about Mr. Jane?" ”

"The last general has already sent someone to inform Mr. Jane, please enter the city."

Guan Yu was very familiar with the military Sima guarding this city gate, and the soldiers standing here were also his subordinates, so he was not prepared at all, and walked towards Linxiang City with the army.

Everyone was already exhausted, and they had traveled a long way to survive all the way, and when they reached the city gate. It feels like there's no more danger. All of them were tired and out of breath. dragged his exhausted body towards the city gate.

Guan Yu walked in the front, at this time he was already exhausted, and the war horse under the seat seemed to be unable to support his body, and he almost fell, but fortunately, Guan Yu reacted quickly, supported the ground with the handle of the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, and then jumped off the horse, so that the wolf would not fall to the ground.

Then. Guan Yu glanced back at the remnants of the defeated army behind him, and sighed heavily, he never expected that his fate would end so badly, let alone avenge his eldest brother, and even his own life was almost put into it.

Although Guan Yu has always boasted of being an enemy of 10,000 people, and he also has superior force, this operation made him completely realize his lack of resourcefulness, and he was no different from a puppet. Before the expedition, he was full of confidence. said that he wanted to cut off Zhang Yan's dog head. But now, not only did he fail to cut off Zhang Yan's dog's head. His own head almost fell to the ground.

As soon as he thought of this, Guan Yu felt that he was afraid that he would be hacked to death by Zhang Yan's subordinates before he saw Zhang Yan.

For a while, Guan Yu's whole person was discouraged, his head drooped, his right hand was holding the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, and his left hand was holding his war horse, and he slowly walked into the city.

After walking about twenty or thirty steps, suddenly there was a miserable cry behind Guan Yu, he hurriedly looked back, but saw several corpses lying at the city gate, and the soldiers who were lined up on both sides of the city gate just now suddenly became murderers, all of them were carrying bloody knives, and they stood at the city gate viciously, and behind them, there were bursts of shouts and killings, and countless enemy troops emerged from all directions, each holding torches, lighting up the entire night sky.

At this moment, the city gate was tightly closed, and those who were holding sharp blades and fierce gods were all looking at Guan Yu with fierce eyes, in addition, countless people also emerged from the city tower, holding bows and arrows, pulling the bowstrings, putting on arrows, and aiming at Guan Yu and others who were still in the urn city.

This scene came too suddenly, Guan Yu and the others did not react, only heard the shouts of killing outside the city, and the miserable screams were endless, those Shanyue soldiers who came back with Guan Yu were already exhausted, facing the enemy army who were waiting for work, coupled with a sudden attack, it was not an opponent at all, and every scream outside the city proved that a person was dead.

"Hahaha......" A hearty laugh came out from above the city tower, and at the beginning of the crowd, a person wearing a royal robe and a crown appeared in front of Guan Yu, this person was none other than Zhang Yan, the king of Yan.

"Guan Yunchang, this king has been waiting here for a long time!" Zhang Yan walked to the edge of the city wall, pressed his hands on the battlements, looked at Guan Yu and his hundreds of subordinates who were trapped in the urn city, and said loudly.

Guan Yu looked at it fixedly, and the face seemed both familiar and unfamiliar. Although he had already guessed that this person was Zhang Yan, he and Zhang Yan had only met a few times, and it was a few years ago, and now Zhang Yan is not angry and arrogant, coupled with the luxurious clothes on his body, he has a different kind of majesty.

"It's you!" Guan Yu gritted his teeth and said, "I really didn't expect that I would be reduced to such a field instead of taking revenge on someone." ”

After Zhang Yan heard this, he said: "Guan Yunchang, as long as you surrender, I can not kill you!" ”

Guan Yu laughed, holding the Qinglong Glaive Knife, aimed at Zhang Yan standing on the city wall, and said sharply: "You are the real culprit behind the murder of my eldest brother, how could I surrender to one of my enemies?" Now that I have not avenged my revenge, I am going to die first, I am really unwilling! ”

"Your eldest brother's death is his own fault, and he can't blame others, he sent someone to assassinate Liu Biao first, even if I don't order him to be killed, Liu Qi will break him into thousands of pieces. Liu Biao kindly took him in, but he did this kind thing of revenge, what is the difference between him and a shameless person? Guan Yunchang, I take into account your bravery, you have the courage of ten thousand people, I want to leave you a way to live, if you want, abandon your weapons and surrender, I will never kill you. Otherwise, you should know better than me what the outcome will be! Zhang Yan said.

Guan Yu laughed and said: "Don't talk about it anymore, I'll never surrender to you, you will die of this heart." ”

Zhang Yan sighed softly, shook his head again, and said: "It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity that you have this martial arts, it's a pity that you are with the wrong person, if there is an afterlife, I hope you won't be with Liu Bei again in the next life, otherwise you will still end up like this." ”

As soon as the words fell. Xu Huang, who had been standing beside Zhang Yan, hurriedly said, "Your Highness." It is said that Guan Yu is invincible. I just don't believe it, please let Your Highness allow me to fight Guan Yu alone, personally cut off his head, and present it to His Highness! ”

Huang Zhong on the side hurriedly said: "Your Highness, do you use a knife to kill chickens?" General Xu is the general of our army, Guan Yu is already sleepy and tired, and his body is estimated to be exhausted, so he can't use General Xu to go out at all. The last general is willing to go and take Guan Yu's head and dedicate it to His Highness! ”

Xu Huang hurriedly said, "What do you mean by that?" Don't you want to rob me of credit? ”

Huang Zhong said with a smile: "General Xu misunderstood, the last general definitely didn't mean that, but I just felt that if General Xu went, it would be a bit overkill." ”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Huang clenched his fists and said to Zhang Yan: "Your Highness, General Huang is old, and Guan Yu is an invincible person, although some people are sleepy and tired, but after all, Guan Yu is young and strong. The body is far better than General Huang, if General Huang is allowed to go like this. The last general is worried that His Highness will lose one of his favorite generals...... It's better for me to go directly and bring Guan Yu's head over and present it to His Highness. ”

Zhang Yan listened to Xu Huang and Huang Zhong arguing beside him, so he said: "Don't bother so much, just shoot Guan Yu to death with random arrows." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Yan raised his hand, and with an order, ten thousand arrows were fired in unison, and the dense arrows shot towards Guan Yu and the others in the urn like a raging storm.

A cluster of arrows fell, and the subordinates who followed Guan Yu into the city fell to the ground one after another, some were directly killed by an arrow, and some were still lying on the ground and let out a miserable scream.

However, Guan Yu stood on the ground like a flock, with the Qinglong Glaive Knife in his hand, his chest and back were full of dense arrows, and the blood had already stained his battle armor, but he always stood like that, but he was unwilling to fall, until the soldiers who were cautiously approaching Guan Yu walked over, and then he knew that Guan Yu had been dead for a long time.

Guan Yu's death was very ordinary, there was no tragic atmosphere, and there was no heroic taste, just an ordinary person who was shot to death by random arrows.

After the soldiers who rushed up saw Guan Yu dead, a man with a steel knife immediately waved the knife in his hand, and when the knife fell, one of Guan Yu's heads was cut off, rolled off and fell to the ground.

However, at this moment, the scene suddenly got out of control, and everyone rushed up and began to grab Guan Yu's head. After all, Zhang Yan released his words earlier, Guan Yu's head is worth a thousand gold.

Zhang Yan on the city tower saw such a scene, so he pointed to the soldiers who were fighting to snatch Guan Yu's head, and said to Xu Huang and Huang Zhong: "See? That's the consequence of the scramble! ”

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Yan waved his hand and asked the people who had already been prepared to go over and pull away those soldiers who snatched Guan Yu's head, and issued a strict order, those who dared to snatch the head would be killed.

Soon, Zhang Yan's words stopped the chaos, and a brocade guard came to Zhang Yan's side with Guan Yu's head and asked Zhang Yan to verify his identity.

Zhang Yan glanced at Guan Yu's head, then waved his hand and asked the Jinyi guard to take it down, and then ordered: "Hang it on the city tower for three days to show warning!" ”

"Whoa!"

Xu Huang and Huang Zhong are both martial arts practitioners, and if they fail to compete with the masters of the world, they will inevitably be a little lost psychologically, and there is also a trace of resentment in each other's eyes.

Zhang Yan has insight into everything, and this thing can't be hidden from his eyes. He casually took out two feather arrows from the quiver on the soldier's back, held one arrow in one hand, and handed them to Xu Huang and Huang Zhong respectively.

Xu Huang and Huang Zhong were both suspicious for a while, looked at Zhang Yan respectively, and asked in unison: "Your Highness, what is this for?"

Zhang Yan said: "Break the arrow!" ”

Xu Huang and Huang Zhong effortlessly broke the arrow.

At this time, Zhang Yan and his subordinates respectively threw Xu Huang and Huang Zhong with an arrow each, each arrow had about ten arrows, and said to the two of them: "Break the arrow!" ”

Xu Huang and Huang Zhong didn't understand what they meant, but they still did it. However, this time, although the arrow was also broken, it took a lot of effort on the part of two people.

At this time, Zhang Yan asked, "Have you ever felt anything?" ”

Xu Huang and Huang Zhong glanced at each other, both of them looked confused, and finally hugged their fists in unison and said: "Your subordinates are stupid, please show His Royal Highness King Yan!" ”

"With one arrow, you easily break it, but with ten arrows, you have a great effort. It's like us, when you're alone, it's easy for someone else to kill you, but if you're ten people, and it's united, it's going to be a lot harder for the enemy to kill you. When I ask you to break arrows, I am actually telling you a truth, 'Brothers are united, and their profits are gold', and if there is no unity among brothers, it will be easy for people to break through each other. Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei are the best examples, after Liu Bei's death, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were stationed in Wuling and Changsha respectively, and their forces were too scattered, so they would be broken by each of us. If the two of them were always in the same place, even if Guan Yu was defeated, Zhang Fei could go to the rescue, let alone lose his life. The two of you are both senior generals in our army, but just now you were arguing with each other in order to kill Guan Yu, don't you think there is anything wrong? ”

As soon as Zhang Yan's words fell, Xu Huang and Huang Zhong suddenly came to their senses, and hurriedly said to Zhang Yan: "His Royal Highness King Yan, his subordinates know that they are wrong, and their subordinates will never do this again in the future." (To be continued......)
