Under the situation that Guan Yu was difficult to get out of for a while, it was not a bad thing to put down some thieves for Cao Cao.

After all, Guan Yu had indeed seen many lawless Yellow Turban thieves at the beginning, and they were really brutal to ordinary people. Therefore, when dealing with some evil yellow turban thieves, Guan Yu will not be soft.

And Yu Ban and Le Jin have no objection to Guan Yu's opinion.

Yu Ban is also a cautious person, after learning that Cao Hong has actually fled back to Xudu, they also realized that this Yellow Turban Thief may not be simple, and without finding out the truth of the Yellow Turban Thief, they did not dare to immediately wave their army to attack Runan City, which fell into the hands of the Yellow Turban Thief.

And that night, when Guan Yu was patrolling the barracks, he found two people with strange whereabouts, Guan Yu thought it was the work of the Runan Yellow Turban Thief, and ordered someone to catch them. No, Guan Yu took a closer look, but he recognized one of them.

Guan Yu hurriedly asked this person to return to the barracks, waved back left and right, and said that he would interrogate him personally.

This person is Sun Qian.

It turned out that Liu Bei originally ordered Jian Yong to sneak into Cao's army to see Guan Yu and let Guan Yu return to Liu Bei. It's just that Guan Yu retreated to Guandu with Cao Cao, and Jian Yong had no way to see Guan Yu at all.

When he explored again, he learned that Guan Yu had returned to Xudu with Cao Cao.

went to Xu Capital to see Guan Yu, but Jian Yong was not very suitable. And Sun Qian, who knows all over the world and knows many people who are officials in the court of Xudu, it is much more convenient for Sun Qian to come to Xudu to find Guan Yu.

Sure enough, Sun Qian mixed into Xu Du, met some people secretly, and inquired only to find out that Guan Yu had already led the army for Cao Cao. Arrived in Runan.

There was no way, Sun Qian had no choice but to leave Runan and follow the military horses of Guan Yu and Yu Ban to Runan.

In order to meet Guan Yu. Sun Qian sneaked into the barracks and was discovered and arrested by Guan Yu.

In Guan Yu's military tent, Guan Yu waved back left and right, and only then did he untie Sun Qian.

Sun Gan said to Guan Yu complainingly while moving his hands and feet: "General Guan, it's really not easy to find you, Sun Mou found Henan from Hebei." and followed him from Xudu to Runan. ”

"Well, thank you Mr. Sun." Guan Yu's heart understood Sun Gan's intention, and asked Sun Qian to sit down and ask, "Is my eldest brother okay now?" ”

"Not good. It's very bad. Sun Qian rubbed his arm that was tied up a little sore, and said to Guan Yu a little eagerly: "Listen to what General Guan said, you seem to know that the Daoist Lord is in Yuan Shao's camp?" ”

"Hehe, at that time, my eldest brother left Xuzhou to ambush the Cao army who killed Xuzhou. Guan learned from some sergeants who had fled from defeat. My eldest brother fell for Cao Jun's ambush and was defeated in Qingzhou, needless to say, as long as the eldest brother didn't have anything to do, he must have thrown himself into Yuan Shao's place. Guan Yu said noncommittally.

"Huh? Since General Guan already knows that the lord of the Dao is in Yuan Shao's army, why don't you leave Cao Cao to join Yuan Shao? Why do you have to kill Gao Lan for Cao Cao's defeat? Sun Qian also noticed at this moment that Guan Yu didn't seem to be very interested in meeting him, and he didn't have the kind of eagerness that his colleagues and old people shouted when they met. So I asked a little puzzled.

"Hehe, what else is this for? Because Guan has already voted for Cao Cao. Guan Yu sighed and said.

"Ugh. General Guan, we all know this about Lu Dao, we all know that General Guan, you must have to vote for Cao Cao for some reason, but since you know that the Lord of Lu Dao is in Yuan Shao's army, how can you still defeat Zhang He and Gao Lan for Cao Cao? You don't know how to do it, the lord was almost killed by Yuan Shao twice. You don't know the danger of Lu Dao at that time......" Sun Ganda didn't believe that Guan Yu would betray Liu Bei in his heart, and sincerely voted for Cao Cao, so he told Guan Yu some of Liu Bei's situation in Yuan Shao's army.

"Isn't my eldest brother okay now?"

I don't want to, but Guan Yu said lightly with a cold expression: "I, Guan Yu, have a beginning and an end to doing things, since I have already voted for Cao Cao, when Cao Cao needs me to fight for him, Guan Yu has no choice, since he is fighting, then he naturally has to go all out." ”

"Huh?" When Sun Qian heard Guan Yu say this, he couldn't help but be a little stunned, rubbed his hands a little anxiously, and said to Guan Yu: "This, this is not true, right?" Yun Chang, do you really want to vote for Cao sincerely? Do you really work for Cao Cao? Are you leading the army to quell the chaos for Cao Cao now? ”

"Guan Mou voted for Han and not Cao, and sincerely took refuge in Cao Cao, but it is not, it's just that as long as it doesn't go against my Guan Mou's heart, Cao Cao asked Guan to do it, Guan Mou will still do it." Guan Yu shook his head and said.

"What? Then, if Cao Cao asked you to attack Yuan Shao, you would also obey his orders? ”

"Naturally, Mr. Sun, don't forget, we and Yuan Shao are enemies. What is there to attack Yuan Shao? ”

"No, it's not." Sun Qian was a little difficult to accept Guan Yu's statements.

"How else?" Guan Yu looked at Sun Qiandao with a calm face.

"This, this...... General Guan, do you really plan to follow Cao Cao all the time and serve Cao Cao? Sun Qian said a little anxiously.

"Guan said that Guan just voted for Han and not Cao." Guan Yu frowned and said.

"Whew...... That's fine. Sun Gan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Guan Yu emphasize that he was only going to join Han and not Cao, and hurriedly said to Guan Yu: "Since this is the case, then General Guan should go with Sun Mou, let's go to Hebei and see the lord." ”

"Actually...... Guan also wanted to meet his eldest brother soon and complete what Guan had to do. But...... I'm afraid I can't go now. Guan Yu said a little hesitantly.

"Oh? What is this for? Sun Qian really couldn't understand Guan Yu at this moment, he always felt a little strange when he saw Guan Yu this time.

"Alas, Mr. Sun, don't you really know?" Guan Yu sighed and said.

"I don't know? What does Sun know about it? Sun Qian felt a little inexplicable.

"You forgot? At that time in Xuzhou, when my eldest brother led the army to ambush Cao Jun who was killed by Xiao Pei, didn't he entrust Xuzhou and his eldest brother's wife to Guan Mou in front of everyone? Guan's eldest brother's wife, that is, Guan's sister-in-law. Guan Yu said to Sun Gan: "Guan Mou, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei are brothers, and our brothers get along like brothers, so far." The eldest brother's wife is Guan's sister-in-law. It's a close relative. The eldest brother entrusted his wife to Guan, and Guan naturally swore to protect him. In order to save the sister-in-law from being spared. When Guan was besieged by Cao Cao's army in Xiapi City, he made an agreement with Cao Cao in three chapters, so although Guan wanted to leave Cao Cao a long time ago, because of his sister-in-law, Guan had to stay in Cao Ying. ”

"Chapter 3?" Sun Qian had heard about this in Xu Du. But I didn't have time to inquire about the specifics.

Guan Yu told Sun Qian about the three chapters of the agreement with Cao Cao.

After Sun Qian understood, Guan Yu said, "Mr. Sun, now." Cao Cao ordered two generals, Yu Ban and Le Jin, to guard Guan Mou, and a large number of sergeants guarded his sister-in-law for protection. Therefore, it is difficult for Guan to leave Cao Ying now. ”

Sun Qian finally understood Guan Yu's difficulties now, but. He didn't know what to do. Hurriedly said to Guan Yu: "But, General Guan, now that the lord is in Yuan Shao's army, the situation is very unfavorable, if General Guan does not throw himself into Yuan Shao's camp, I am afraid that Yuan Shao will kill the lord in a fit of anger." ”

"Since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have been in a dilemma." Guan Yu suddenly said with a feeling: "Mr. Sun, you should report back to my eldest brother first, and he should be careful in Yuan Shaojun." Guan will definitely protect his sister-in-law and escort his sister-in-law back to him. It's not convenient to speak here now. After a while, Yu Ban and Le Jin will see that you are afraid that it will be difficult for you to leave, let's go. ”

"Huh? This, this ......" Sun Qian didn't expect Guan Yu to let him go back and report to Liu Bei like this. Originally, he wanted to say to Guan Yu, who is more important, the lord or the sister-in-law? The so-called sister-in-law is just a woman, why does Guan Yu need to spend so much effort to protect? Now, who can stop Guan Yu from leaving? You can completely ignore that woman and go back to Liu Bei first.

However, when Sun Qian saw Guan Yu's serious and serious expression, he didn't dare to say such a thing, he knew in his heart that the loyal Guan Yu would not abandon his sister-in-law and run away, and if he wanted to escape, he didn't have to wait until today.

"Okay, that's it, you go back first, if Guan finds a chance to leave Cao Ying, he will definitely send his sister-in-law back to his brother." Guan Yu didn't want to say any more, and stood up.

Guan Yu didn't say whether he would return to Liu Bei, but only said that he would send his sister-in-law back.

Sun Qian was helpless, and he didn't know how to say it to Guan Yu. Under the escort of Guan Yu, he left Cao Ying, rushed back to Yanjin, and reported to Liu Bei.

Yu Ban and Le Jin rushed to hear the wind, and Sun Qian had already gone away. Guan Yu explained to them that he had only caught a nearby civilian, and he was not a spy of the thieves.

Yu Ban and Le Jin were skeptical, but they didn't say anything, as long as Guan Yu didn't escape.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, Guan Yu saw that Runan City was heavily guarded, and he didn't seem to be an ordinary yellow turban thief. and Yu Ban, Le Jin and other generals inspected for a while, but they couldn't see the reality of Runan City.

Guan Yu thought about it and decided to go to the battle first, and find out the combat power of the thieves in Runan City through the battle.

Guan Yu went out to fight, stayed in the camp in the ban, and Le Jin led an army to suppress Guan Yu.

Not long after Guan Yu fought under Runan City, the Yellow Turban Thieves draped Gong Du out of the city to face him.

Guan Yu slapped his horse and danced his knife and rushed forward, not wanting Gong Du to flee with his horse.

Flee before they even fight? Guan Yu was stunned by this thief, and shouted that the thief would not go, and the red rabbit horse chased after him like flying.

The red rabbit horse is fast, and it can catch up in the blink of an eye, when Guan Yu was about to raise his knife to kill the thief Gong Du, the thief general did not look back and said urgently: "You are General Guan Yuguan?" Don't do it, just follow the end. ”

When Guan Yu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and asked himself in his heart that he didn't know this thief general, but he seemed to have something to say to himself? Isn't there some conspiracy? However, Guan Yu was self-possessed and brave, and he was not afraid of the conspiracy of this thief, so he followed him directly.

The Cao army in the back, they only said that Guan Yu had defeated the thief general, and cheered for Guan Yu in the back for a while.

Soon, the raid fled into a small forest, barely blocking the view of Cao's soldiers.

He stopped, and Le Ma turned back to Guan Yu and said, "General Guan, don't do it, we are our own people." ”

"Oh? Own? Do you know Guan? Guan Yu saw that this thief general was indeed not hostile to him, so he stopped and asked.

"Hehe, we are from the New Han Dynasty." Gong Du smiled at Guan Yu.

"What? You—how could you ......"

"General Guan, don't you know that Zhang Ning, the Taiping Dao saintess of our Yellow Turban Army, is the wife of our lord Liu Yi? Most of the people who were originally from the Yellow Turban Army secretly voted for the New Han Dynasty. As for how to know General Lu Daoguan, you are also from our New Han Dynasty. That's what we were told. The man asked us for news about General Guan. ”

"Oh? Who told you to find out about me? It won't be ...... Lewi, right? Guan Yu was a little confused.

"It's not the lord, but it's okay to tell you, but in the future, you have to don't say it's what we said." Gong Du is a little thief-eyed.

"Okay. I won't say it's what you said. Guan Yu promised him.

"It's General Zhang Fei. After he escaped from Xiaopei, he led the rest of the army to flee to the Yingchuan area, and he also led the army to attack our cottage, and the last general was captured by General Zhang Fei with a move, and when he wanted to kill the last general, the last general was anxious, and said that the last general would be a person from the New Han Dynasty. General Zhang Fei didn't kill us. I learned that we were lurking in the area of Yingchuan and Runan for the New Han Dynasty. General Zhang thought it was funny, so he mixed it up with us. ”

"Fun? These third brothers are really yes. When Guan Yu heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry. I'm still worried about how to protect my sister-in-law, this guy still has the heart to play? However, Guan Yu's heart finally let go, and he told Zhang Fei the news. It proves that he is living a good life now.

"Huh. Actually, it's not......" Gong Du scratched his head and said: "It was the third general who said that he always felt a little gray and embarrassed to go to see Brother Liu Yi like this, so he mixed with us first." ”

"Well, I see, then. Cao Hong's defeat is also the masterpiece of my third brother, right? Guan Yu now understands why Cao Hong will be rich in the hands of this "yellow turban thief". I heard that he was still defeated repeatedly, hehe, it was his bad luck to touch Zhang Fei.

"Huh? It's not right......" Guan Yu thought again, if Zhang Fei defeated Cao Hong, then there should have been a report, and he couldn't help but ask Gong Dudao again: "Cao Hong should know my third brother Zhang Fei, why didn't you hear Cao Hong say that it was a thief in whose hands?" ”

"Ha Luha, General Guan, you don't know Lu Dao, now, General Zhang is already a famous masked thief in Runan, he knows that Lu Dao's appearance is easy for people to recognize, and when he is active with us, he simply covers his face."

"I see, that's ......" Guan Yu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard this.

"So where is Zhang Fei now? Why don't you come out to meet Guan? Guan Yu asked puzzled.

"General Zhang is in a mood, saying how can you vote for Cao Cao? After deliberately avoiding you, he has now left Runan City and returned to our foothold, which is also our base city, the ancient city. Gong Du also seemed to be amused, and then asked Guan Yu: "I know from General Zhang's mouth, General Guan, you and my lord Liu Yi are good brothers, and you and General Zhang have already secretly voted for our lord." Therefore, we guess that you will definitely not really vote for Cao Cao, so we have come to ask General Guan about you, so that we can go back and dismiss General Zhang. ”

"Hehe, my third brother, he sometimes smells like a child." Guan Yu arched his hand to Gong Du and said: "Brother Gong Du, my third brother is very arrogant, although he is brave, but sometimes he will be fierce, seeing that you are also a witty person, I ask you to take care of Zhang Fei more." ”

"General Guan, don't be like this, General Zhang is amazing, besides, we are all people from the New Han Dynasty, we are all brothers, even if General Guan doesn't say it, we will do our part."

"Well, then please tell Zhang Fei that Guan Mou voted for Cao Cao because he ......" Guan Yu besieged himself by Cao Cao in Xiapi, in order to protect his sister-in-law, if he made an agreement with Cao Cao in three chapters, he told Gong Du about not joining Cao.

"Alright. I will go back and explain to General Zhang. Gong Du nodded.

"Then Xie Lu Xie Gong brother, tell Zhang Fei that as long as Guan sends his sister-in-law back to Liu Bei, he will immediately come to find him, so that he should not worry about Guan. By the way, you can also report to Liu Yi secretly, although I know that Brother Liu Yi will not misunderstand Guan, but if you have the opportunity, you should tell Brother Liu Yi first. Tell Liu Yi that he will always be my little brother Guan Yu. Guan Yu bowed to Gong Du.

"General Guan is polite, well, General Guan, we seized Runan, in fact, we came for the sake of those few big families in the city who are rich and unkind, and now, it has been dealt with, it is inconvenient for us to stay in Runan City, I am afraid that it will attract Cao Cao's army, so, at the end of the meeting, we will be defeated, you take advantage of the situation to lead the army to take Runan." Gong Du said to Guan Yu after being the most embarrassed.

"Hehe, no wonder Zhang Fei wants to follow you, it turns out that he is here to rob the rich and help the poor." Guan Yu couldn't help but have a good impression of Gong.

Gong Du's old face turned red, and said: "It's true to rob the rich, but it may not be necessary to help the poor, we now have to prepare for our new Han Dynasty to seize the Han Dynasty, we are responsible for raising some military rations and hiding them everywhere, so that we can avoid having to escort grain and grass from Luoyang to our military horses when we get it." ”

"Oh? So that's the case? Yes, that's a good idea. Brother Gong, do you know when we will send troops? "Guan Yu has never been very clear about the New Han Dynasty, and being able to learn something from Gong Du's mouth can also make Guan Yu feel excited.

"Uh, General Guan, these military secrets, the last general is not yet at the level of knowledge."

"Oh...... In this way, Guan has to send his sister-in-law back to Liu Bei as soon as possible, and then vote for my Liu Yi brother, so as not to miss such a big battle. Guan Yu said thoughtfully.

"Okay, General Guan, if there is nothing else to explain, let's start, it's been too long here, I'm afraid that Cao Jun will be suspicious." Gong Du looked at Cao Jundao, who was far away.

"Good!" Guan Yu responded.

In order to create the appearance of a vicious battle with Gong Du in the grove, Guan Yu used his murderous aura to ravage the grove, making it look like flying sand and rocks.

In the midst of shouting and killing, Gong Du dragged his knife and fled back to Runan City.

Of course, Guan Yuwei followed and killed. (To be continued......)
