Just when the main forces of the Chu and Han armies encountered each other, Guan Yu, who was in the south, also made a move.
After violently attacking Jiangxia for several days, Guan Yu calmed down.
Of course, there's nothing you can do if you don't calm down.
Guan Yu was speechless as he looked at the porridge without a grain of rice in the bowl.
Yes, the Jingzhou Army is out of food.
Jiangxia was occupied, the navy was destroyed, and the Jingzhou army completely lost its food supply.
Now, Guan Yu has regretted it.
If he had listened to Wei Yan's advice earlier and found another way to withdraw to Jingzhou, the situation would not have deteriorated to this point.
However, his son died and his head was still hung on the city wall.
No one can bear this.
Now, it is impossible to take another path.
Lu Meng is not a fool. If the Jingzhou army dares to retreat at this time, the Chu army will definitely dare to pursue them.
If we continue chasing him all the way, I'm afraid that all the wealth in Jingzhou will be lost before we return to Xiangyang.
You know, Lu Meng had cavalry under his command.
"General Guan, with the current situation, we might as well retreat along a small road with a small number of soldiers!
As long as we return to Xiangyang, the Chu army will definitely not be able to advance even if the general is in charge!"
Similarly, Wei Yan also knew that the Jingzhou Army was now at a point of life and death.
Today is the first day without food, so the soldiers can tolerate it for the time being.
but......
If two days pass, even if there is no mutiny, there will be a large number of deserters, and the Jingzhou army with an empty stomach will have no fighting power at all.
If that happens, the Jingzhou Army will really become a piece of cake on the chopping board.
Therefore, Wei Yan could only persuade Guan Yu to abandon his chariot to protect his commander, and to cut off the wrists of a strong man.
"No! Since Guan brought everyone here, he will naturally bring everyone back with him!"
It's a pity that Wei Yan is not Guan Yu, and Wei Yan doesn't understand Guan Yu's pursuit.
If it is true as Wei Yan said, a small number of elites can indeed be retained and returned to Xiangyang.
After all, the army is here, and Lu Meng will not be able to notice the withdrawal of a small number of troops in a short period of time.
but......
If that were really the case, then Guan Yu's own reputation would be completely ruined.
For Guan Yu, this was simply intolerable.
Death? Not terrible.
The terrible thing is that even when you die, you will leave an infamy behind.
That really made Guan Yu unable to rest in peace.
Rejecting Wei Yan, Guan Yu closed his eyes again and slumped.
After all, with today’s form, it’s really unthinkable without a concave shape.
But Guan Yu didn't know it. Pay attention to the strange look flashing in the corner of Wei Yan's eyes after being rejected.
You must know that at this time, Wei Yan was not as loyal to the Shu Han for many years as in history, when he paid homage to the former general and became the general of the Western Conquest.
Nowadays, Wei Yan really doesn't have much deep feelings for Shu Han.
After all, he was a general in Jingzhou, and he followed the crowd and took refuge with Liu Bei.
Night, at the head of Jiangxia City.
"Whoosh!"
A rain arrow carrying a letter flew down to the top of the city.
"Commander! Please take a look."
When Lu Meng saw the contents of the letter, he was overjoyed.
Unexpectedly, Guan Yu was already in such a state of despair?
Now, Zhou Tai's navy had already arrived near the battlefield, and Zang Ba's troops from Yangzhou had not yet arrived.
This is also the reason why Lu Meng has not launched a counterattack against the Jingzhou Army.
But! With this letter, Lu Meng knew that he no longer had to wait for Zang Ba's troops.
Tomorrow is the time to defeat the Jingzhou army and take Guan Yu's head!
This letter is Wei Yan's letter asking for surrender.
Seeing the decline of the Shu Han and the alienation of the Jingzhou Army, Wei Yan stopped playing.
Even a fool can see this situation, and continuing to persist will only lead to the end.
But Guan Yu was arbitrary and did not listen to others, and Wei Yan was unable to think of anything.
But you, Guan Yu, want to die, but I, Wei Yan, have not lived enough.
Therefore, Wei Yan not only asked Lü Meng to surrender, but also informed Lü Meng of the situation of the Jingzhou army. At the same time, Wei Yan also agreed with Lü Meng that he would launch a mutiny at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, and only asked Lü Meng to respond.
Lu Meng still believed in Wei Yan's words.
After all, the form of the Jingzhou Army does not need to be described by Wei Yan, Lu Mengyanen made a rough calculation.
At this time, Wei Yan asked to surrender, which was reasonable and reasonable.
Shu said, Jingzhou Army Camp.
"kill!"
"Rebellion! If you continue to follow Guan Yu, your brothers will all die!"
"Kill Guan Yu and surrender to Chu!"
Guan Yu, who was in the process of posing, was suddenly awakened by the killing shouts in the camp.
When he walked out and saw the battalion commander, he was immediately filled with jealousy.
Damn it? Mutiny?
Originally, according to Guan Yu's thoughts, he was planning to lead the army to retreat today.
After all, it is unrealistic to attack a city. You always have to find a way out, right?
Abandoning the large army and escaping alone would leave a bad name, but if he retreated with the large army, even if most of them could not return to Xiangyang, Guan Yu could keep his reputation!
But he never thought that before Guan Yu could tell his decision, the Jingzhou army would mutiny.
At this time, Guan Yu was completely confused.
"Guan Yu! Die!"
At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came.
When he saw Wei Yan swinging his sword at him, Guan Yu understood in an instant.
This must be the villain Wei Yan who led the rebellion.
"Wei Yan! Your Majesty treats you badly! Guan treats you badly! How dare you rebel?"
Guan Yu turned sideways to avoid Wei Yan's attack, and Guan Yu was furious.
"Hmph! Guan Yu, don't say anything more. Today is your day!"
Seeing Guan Yu launch his own sneak attack, Wei Yan didn't waste any time, decisively turned his horse around and ran in the direction of Jiang Xiacheng.
Wei Yan is not a fool, and he is no match for this red-faced opponent in a duel.
If this person is not good and he cuts it off, wouldn't it become a joke?
However, Wei Yan underestimated Guan Yu's determination to kill him.
After chasing and escaping, the two generals soon arrived at Jiangxia City.
What frightened Wei Yan was that what was waiting for him was not the Chu army that opened the city gate to greet him, but... numerous rain arrows that flew down from the top of the city.
"Lu Meng! You must die a happy death!"
When Wei Yan saw such a situation, how could he still know what was going on?
This Lu Meng obviously thinks that he is a fool!
This means that he has never accepted his surrender at all. He just wants to cause civil strife in the Jingzhou Army and at the same time lure Guan Yu over.
A hail of arrows fell, and without any surprise, Wei Yan died.
Guan Yu is also dead.
His right arm was injured, he had not had a good rest for several days, and his stomach had been empty for a whole day. Guan Yu was severely exhausted in terms of physical strength and energy.
Facing the barrage of arrows from the Chu army, Guan Yu had no way to resist.
With the death of Guan Yu, the Jingzhou Army has completely withdrawn from the stage of history.
Overlord! Meng has already done what you told him!
Looking to the north, Lu Meng drew his sword.
"Send the order! Attack with the entire army and destroy the Jingzhou Army!"
