Chapter 834: The Guan family is sullen at heart
The city walls can be repaired, but the fear in the hearts of the soldiers cannot be repaired.
When the 20,000-strong army arrived in Chonghe County, the entire Chonghe County fell into panic.
The garrison generals hurriedly ordered people to prepare supplies for the defense, such as rolling logs, stones, firewood and cauldrons. They didn't care that it was evening and began to mobilize their troops in a panic.
Guan Yu's side was even more desperate. He had no intention of setting up camp and wanted a surprise.
When the army arrived at the city, more than two hundred siege ladders were already ready. Seeing the soldiers who directly carried the siege ladders to charge, the defender generals were shocked. Didn't they agree that they should set up camp first?
Either we have to be in such a hurry!
The unexpected siege completely disrupted the deployment of the defenders, especially the two fierce generals Wei Yan and Guan Ping who led the charge.
Under the mist of clouds, Wei Yan, who was in the state of releasing the Gang Qi, was unable to fly directly to the top of the city, but this did not delay him. He only used a slight force on the siege ladder to climb up the city first.
Just like the crazy fan, he has the same armor as Guan Yu, the same Qinglong Yanyue Sword, the same fiery red face, except for a shorter beard, he is almost a real Guan Yu.
The Qinglong Yanyue Sword danced, instantly clearing away the defenders within a few meters of the surrounding area.
Seeing how brave their leader was, the large number of soldiers who followed behind rushed to the top of the city at a faster speed than usual training.
Two generals opened a gap at the top of the city. With just one charge, they took up their positions at the top of the city.
In a panic, the general guarding the city called up the 300 guards around him and rushed towards Wei Yan. He knew in his heart that if Wei Yan could not be defeated, the city of Duhe would be over!
Facing the rushing defenders, Wei Yan stood on the top of the city, standing motionless with a sword in one hand, but secretly began to use his energy and energy to perform the Yuehua Three Cuts.
When Guan Yu faced Wei Yan, who was older than his own son and looked more like him, he passed on all the "Yuehua Three Cuts" at the bottom of the box to Wei Yan without hesitation.
"Enemy generals all have names, and a certain gun cannot be fired..."
Before he finished his sentence, Wei Yan's energy reached its peak. He stepped on his feet and appeared in front of the garrison general like lightning. The Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand ignored the weakening of the clouds, and the green aura surged, although he couldn't cut it.
There are dozens of meters long swords, but just condensing those several meters of swords is not something that this general can withstand.
"boom!"
Under the sword, the defending general swallowed the last few words in panic, mobilized his soldiers to raise their spears, and felt as if Mount Tai was pressing down on them. Blood spurted from the tiger's mouth, and his arms were numb, and the spear almost came out of his hands.
"boom!"
With the second blow, the defender general hit his knees on the city wall, the masonry shattered, the spear was smashed into a concave shape, and blood spurted out from his mouth and nose.
"boom!"
With the third sword, the spear of the defender general broke, and the man was cut in half. The remaining force of the Qinglong Yanyue Sword slashed hard at the city wall, causing the wall to shake.
"Guan, Guan Yu!"
"Run!"
The soldiers were shocked by Wei Yan's majestic appearance of killing the defending general with three swords. Recalling the legendary Guan Yu, that sword, that appearance, and that beard, he let out a howl, dropped his weapon, fled, and surrendered.
After much effort, Chonghe County was captured without Guan Yu even taking action.
The city gate opened, and Guan Yu led his troops into the city. When he saw Wei Yan and Guan Ping covered in blood, a rare smile appeared on their poker-like faces, "That's right, let me record a merit."
When Wei Yan and Guan Ping were praised by Guan Yu, their hearts were a little more happy than when they had recorded a meritorious deed.
They only rested for one night in Chonghe County. The work in the occupied area was naturally handled by the people in charge of civil affairs. Guan Yu's army headed towards Nanpi, the county seat of Bohai County.
Qiantong County, Gaocheng, and Dongguang were not included in Guan Yu's plan at all. His purpose was to capture Nanpi, block the passage from Bohai County to Hejian County, and then slowly start to control other counties.
In addition, he was also worried that Gan Ning only had 10,000 naval troops. If he encountered difficulties in attacking Lecheng, he could also lend a hand to help. After all, they were separated by a river but not far away.
Guan Yu still doesn't know that the entire Hejian has been captured by Gan Ning, and the leader of Gan Ning has already dispatched his troops to prepare to capture the Zhongshan Kingdom.
Four days later, on the second day after Nanpi City was reunited and defeated, Guan Yu arrived at Nanpi City with an army of 20,000. This time he did not launch a direct attack. Nanpi was not coincident. This is where Yuan Shao started his career.
Thirty thousand troops were heavily guarded and could not be captured by surprise.
The guard general Lu Xiang is a general under Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao's second son Yuan Xi is in Nanpi City. The level of caution is not comparable.
Besides... Nanpi City has actually made arrangements for a long time. In the past two years, it is not an exaggeration to say that Yuan Shao's territory has been turned into a sieve by Wang Xuan.
They set up camp honestly, and the number of troops was not as large as in Nanpi City. Guan Yu did not think about besieging the city. At the same time, he also thought about encircling the points and calling for reinforcements. Of course, this was just incidental. He didn't care whether he had it or not.
Teams of 200 people separated from the army and dispersed towards the four city walls. The leader rode a tall horse and held the artifact 'big horn' in his hand. He started the cannon mode again and began to perform at the defenders.
.
It was also the first time that Lu Xiang encountered such... well, despicable methods. He was so angry that he opened the city gate and personally led a thousand soldiers to kill these despicable guys regardless of dissuasion.
Lu Xiang fought out fiercely...
Covered with wounds, Lu Xiang escaped...
It's just a pity that a thousand soldiers were all thrown outside.
Guan Ping slapped the sword in his hand regretfully and lurked among them disguised as a soldier. He thought he could kill the general and capture the flag in front of the formation. Unexpectedly, the guard turned around and ran away when he saw that the situation was not going well!
He sighed, "You're still not calm enough. You should have waited for that guy to rush to you before making a sneak attack."
By the way, Guan Yu's family is handsome and upright, but they like to carry out sneak attacks the most after they go to the battlefield. I don't know if they are actually sullen at heart.
Lu Xiang was almost killed by Guan Ping, but now he became honest. He ordered the four doors to be closed tightly, and no one was allowed to open the door without his order. After that, he stayed on top of the city. As for what those people below were shouting.
He can't control those things that shake the morale of the army.
However, facing Yuan Shang's questioning, Lu Xiang wanted to say, what can I do? I am also desperate!
Of course, I can only think about this in my heart, and I still have to explain it honestly on the surface: "My lord, the leader of the army on the opposite side is Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang. He is a man of martial arts that few people in the world can match. His deputy general Wei Yan is also in the realm of releasing Gang Qi."
