The moment Guan Yu wanted to see Jia Xu's hands, Jia Xu knew that it would be difficult for him to escape today.
In the past, when Jia Xu was in Liangzhou, he experienced a similar crisis.
He and his companions were kidnapped and robbed by the Di people. In order to survive, Jia Xu lied that he was Duan Ji's grandson and thus escaped.
At that time, Duan Jiong had been guarding the border for a long time and had a strong reputation. He was not merciless in massacring the Qiang and Di people, so he was in awe of all the tribes in Xizhou.
But now, Duan Jiong is dead. Besides, this is the Guandong region, and Guan Yu is now famous. Let alone Jia Xu who lied that he was Duan Jiong's grandson, even if he said that he was Duan Jiong's grandfather, he might not be able to do so. Someone peed on him.
Now that Guan Yu has seen his flaw, Jia Xu can no longer pretend to be an ordinary soldier.
But if you expose your identity directly like this, you will be completely under the control of the other party. If you turn around, you will probably have no room for maneuver.
For people like Jia Xu, the later they expose their identity, even if they have to struggle for a little while, it is better.
Jia Xu stood up straight, stretched out his hand to Guan Yu and said, "General, can you talk to me from the side?"
Guan Yu raised his eyebrows, then got off his horse, holding a knife in one hand and stroking his beard with the other, and followed Jia Xu to the side.
After arriving at a place far away from the crowd, Jia Xu just paid a great courtesy to Guan Yu.
"To be honest, general, I am working under Lieutenant Jia, and accompanying him in managing the army's grain and grain. This is my servant. A certain person's surname is Ma, and he is from Maoling, Fufeng. His name is a truncated word."
Guan Yu saw that Jia Xu was very elegant in both speech and ceremony, so he asked: "My surname is Ma, and I am from Fufeng County. I wonder if I am a descendant of the Ma family in Fufeng?"
The Fufeng Ma family has a far-reaching reputation and is well-known in the Kansai area, not inferior to the Hongnong Yang family.
Ma Rong was the teacher of the current spiritual gods Zheng Xuan and Lu Zhi, and Liu Jian was Zheng Xuan's son-in-law and Lu Zhi's disciple, so in a certain sense, Liu Jian also belonged to Ma Rong's junior generation, at least in Liu Jian needs to maintain a respectful attitude towards the Ma family.
Jia Xu immediately said nonsense: "To be honest, Ma is the grandson of Uncle Fufeng."
To be honest, Guan Yu didn't believe everything Jia Xu said, but he didn't dare not believe it. After all, Liu Jian was a descendant of Ma Rong, and his attitude towards the grandson of Ma Rong would directly affect Liu Jian's reputation.
After Guan Yu was silent for a while, he said: "I didn't expect you to be the empress of Fufeng Bo. It's disrespectful and disrespectful."
"Don't dare!"
Jia Hong listened to Jia Xu's lies on the sidelines, and was so shocked that sweat dripped down his forehead.
Our family is as timid as a mouse when it comes to fairness. How come we dare to tell any lie at this critical moment?
In fact, Jia Xu's purpose in telling this lie was not to know what the other party was telling the truth, nor what the other party's purpose was in sending a general like Guan Yu to arrest him.
Anyway, brag about your awesomeness first! Try to save your life.
As for what happens next, let’s talk about it later!
Jia Xu saluted Guan Yu and said: "To be honest, general, I was recommended by my brother Ma Wengshu to conquer the Thirteenth Cao. It was really out of necessity. I only tried my best for the country and did not participate in Liu Jizhou and Dong Xiangguo. grudges between.”
Guan Yu said proudly: "The Duke's family is from a high family in Xizhou. Since the Duke comes from a famous family, even if he is in the court, he should distinguish between good and evil and distinguish right from wrong!"
Jia Xu nodded repeatedly and said: "That's right, that's right. When I return to Luoyang this time, I will resign and return to Xizhou. I will praise Liu Jizhou's benevolence and kindness in my hometown and will never get involved in officialdom again."
Guan Yu stroked his long beard and nodded with satisfaction after hearing this: "My Lord, this is a very good thing to say."
After saying this, there was an awkward silence between the two people.
When I was young, I heard Jia Xu tentatively ask: "General, for the sake of the family, can you let me go back?"
A smile appeared on Guan Yu's lips.
"My husband is from a famous family and is a descendant of Uncle Fufeng. Guan cannot embarrass you. However, your ancestor is my brother's ancestor. Although we met by chance before the battle, if you don't welcome your husband back to meet your brother,
, I’m afraid that my brother will definitely blame him! Now that the two armies are at war, and the Central Plains is in chaos, I’m afraid that he will be in some danger if he is sent back just like this. I might as well go back with Guan to see his brother, let him talk about his feelings, and then send him off on another day.
How about returning to Luoyang?"
After saying these words, Jia Xu almost fainted.
He looked at Guan Yu's expression carefully and found that there was a slight smile on the corner of Guan Yu's mouth. He had obviously figured out something, but he had not revealed it yet.
Jia Hong said from the side: "Well, this is not necessary..."
"Why!"
Guan Yu raised his hand to block Jia Hong's words: "I want it, I want it, I really want it!"
Jia Xu knew in his heart that it would be impossible to escape from Guan Yu this time.
However, Guan Yunchang's attitude seemed very respectful.
It seems that this person is the type of person who respects scholar-bureaucrats very much.
Come to think of it, as his elder brother Liu Jian is not much worse.
Moreover, when Jia Xu accompanied Li Jue and Guo Si as envoys, he had met Liu Jian. Although he did not have direct talks with Liu Jian, he still concluded that Liu Jian was also a reasonable person by observing his behavior.
At least, he should be more reasonable than Dong Zhuo.
At this juncture, Jia Xu had no choice.
…
…
Guan Yu captured Jia Xu on one side, and on the other side, Niu Fu was leading his army and followed Zhang Fei's troops in a hurry.
At this moment, Ushi Fu has fallen into a state of madness, and his mind can no longer accommodate anything else.
What he has to do now is to catch up with Zhang Fei, tie him to a big tree, cut his flesh and skin one by one, cut off his flesh piece by piece and roast him until the bones!
He wants to cut Zhang Fei into a sheep and scorpion!
"Zhang Fei! I swear to kill you!"
Niu Fu's cry echoed across the plains.
Not far away, a dense forest appeared in Niu Fu's eyes. Vaguely, Niu Fu seemed to be able to see Zhang Fei and others rushing in.
Niu Fu didn't hesitate at all and followed Zhang Fei into the forest.
He ordered his troops to disperse in a straight line and rush forward like a carpet, leaving no place where Zhang Fei could hide!
Niu Fu panted heavily and looked left and right, looking for signs of the enemy everywhere.
But he didn't notice that the horse under his feet was getting slower and slower.
Deep in the forest is a swamp. Although it will not drown people, it is extremely muddy and extremely difficult to walk through.
When the horses of the Xiliang Army arrived here, their mobility was greatly weakened!
The speed of the team slowed down, and Niu Fu was very anxious. He kept clamping the belly of the horse that sat down, and shouted loudly: "March faster! March faster! Don't let Zhang Fei run away! Today, no matter what, I will
I will chop him alive..."
But before Ushifu could finish his words, a sudden change occurred!
The tripping rope buried in the mud and leaves was suddenly straightened by the Jizhou troops hiding on both sides.
The horses and knights walking in front were unable to escape and were all tripped to the ground by the horse ropes!
As for the muddy road, it is not easy to march in the first place. Now that the horses in the front row are suddenly tripped, the impact is naturally on the cavalry in the rear.
For a moment, Niu Fu's cavalry team stopped one after another and became a mess in the muddy ground. The horses neighed and the knights tried to calm the horses, but with little effect.
It was at this time that the Jizhou crossbowmen who had been hiding in the tree next to them began to fire arrows!
The crossbow was originally a powerful weapon for long-range attacks, but now it was located from a high position. In addition, Niu Fu's front cavalry were stuck in the mud due to tripping on the horse ropes, and they were unable to dodge for a while.
The sharp arrows shot down at the unprotected soldiers. The knights and their horses were hit by arrows one after another, and the front line of the Niu Auxiliary Army was thrown into panic.
The guards around Niu Fu were shocked when they saw this. They hurriedly called the shield soldiers to come forward, surrounded Niu Fu, and moved him from the front to the back to cover and retreat.
It was at this time that a burst of shouting for death was suddenly heard from the left and right.
Zhang Fei's two groups of troops were ambushing in the woods, one on the left and one on the right.
Niu Fujun, who was in trouble due to the mud and rain of arrows, was temporarily unable to organize an effective formation to counterattack Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei took the lead and quickly came to a place not far from Niu Fu. He reined in his Wuzui war horse, raised his eight-foot-long snake spear high, stared at his iconic leopard eyes, and laughed loudly: "Haha
Haha! Niu Fu, I have fallen into your uncle Zhang’s trap! Why don’t you dismount your horse and surrender quickly!”
If it were anyone else, they would not pay attention to Zhang Fei at this moment. It would be best to lead them to turn around and run away.
But Niu Fu really hates Zhang Fei so much, so much, so much!
If Zhang Fei's head was not beheaded today, Niu Fu would probably have to hold in his breath for the rest of his life and have nightmares every night!
"Zhang Fei! Don't make any noise! Your Majesty is here!"
Niu Fu glared at Zhang Fei and rushed towards Zhang Fei with his sword. He gritted his teeth and vowed to stab the opponent under the horse.
Zhang Fei was greatly reassured when he saw Niu Fu acting like this.
It turned out that all the hard work he had put in was in vain. This guy now hated himself deeply and vowed to fight him desperately.
So best, so best!
Thinking of this, Zhang Fei immediately cheered up and stepped forward to fight Niu Fu.
In order to prevent Niu Fu from escaping, Zhang Fei just retreated and fought at first, because his main task was to capture Niu Fu alive.
There are still Xiliang warriors around Niu Fu now. If Niu Fu is dismounted as soon as he comes up, he will most likely be rescued by the opponent's soldiers.
In this way, Zhang Fei's personal guards began to fight against Niu Fu's knights. This was a muddy land. Xiliang's horses did not show much advantage, and Zhang Fei's soldiers all held spears.
, they used their spears to stab the knights and horses of the Xiliang Army from a distance.
Once the cavalry without mobility is blocked by the infantry armed with long weapons, it is basically a living target.
Soon, they saw five Xiliang cavalry covered in blood, falling from their horses into the mud and unable to get up again.
But Niu Fu couldn't care about his soldiers at this moment, he only had Zhang Fei in his eyes.
Niu Fu and Zhang Fei crossed each other, and without saying a word, he swung his sword and slashed at Zhang Fei.
While he was chopping, he let out a loud roar: "Ha, ha, ha!"
