Chapter 183: Messy Beard

Guan Yu's most powerful killing move is to use the three swords in front to overwhelm the opponent, then approach step by step, disrupting the opponent's attack rhythm, and after finding a flaw, kill him instantly.

This move is almost always harmful, especially when it is unexpected, such as when killing Hua Xiong. At that time, Guan Yu was just an unknown soldier. Taking advantage of Hua Xiong's contempt for him, he killed him with three swords. It can be said that he used the first three swords to kill him.

To the fullest.

But later on, when Guan Yu's reputation spread all over the world, these three swords were often difficult to use. It was easy to deal with those with low force value, but it was not that easy to deal with masters, such as Cai Yang, Huang Zhong, etc., and it was difficult to be effective.

During the battle of Youli City, Guan Yu was among the rebels and attacked Yan Liang. He used his first dragging sword to suppress his momentum. At that time, Yan Liang was surrounded by people and could not evade, so he could only resist.

But the result of the hard resistance was that he was suppressed with the first sword strike, and then the next two sword strikes came like a gust of wind, making it difficult for him to resist, and he was almost killed in the end.

Later, Yan Liang learned from the experience and understood why he lost in the first place.

He was suppressed by the dragging sword attack from the beginning, which led to the advantage being taken by others, and he did not find a way to deal with the subsequent two sword strikes. Naturally, he had to be beaten passively, and he was indeed panicked at the time and did not respond calmly.

So after accepting the decisive battle with Guan Yu, he continued to adjust his mentality in the past few days, and through Wen Chou's death, he still maintained peace in the midst of extreme anger.

Practicing with wooden dummies in the school grounds these past few days may not necessarily improve his force value, but the improvement in his state of mind has allowed him to sublimate and grow himself.

For a forty-year-old middle-aged warrior whose peak condition is about to begin to decline, it is not easy to break through in the middle of battle.

However, Yan Liang did it.

This may be the limit that a general who desires to make achievements on the battlefield can reach.

After Yan Liang defeated Guan Yu's first three swords, he found his rhythm and raised his sword to strike horizontally, but was blocked by Guan Yu. The two horses chased each other, circling in circles, and in an instant they were slashing and parrying each other. It was already more than 20 years ago.

combine.

There were flashes of swords and shadows in the field, and there seemed to be the sound of dragons roaring and tigers roaring. Guan Yu's robes were fluttering, and the Qinglong Yanyue Sword was spinning lightly in his hand, as if a long blue dragon had been transformed into it, dancing continuously.

The dragon is roaring, and the blade of the cold saw emits a soul-stirring light under the blazing sunlight.

Yan Liang was not inferior at all. He kept waving his broadsword, and the nine-foot-long knife flew up and down in his hand like a butterfly. Every time he chopped, there was a terrifying cold light, like a bright silver glow, connecting himself with

The enemy is shrouded in moonlight.

The two fought fiercely together.

After more than ten rounds, Guan Yu saw the opportunity and stabbed Yan Liang in the waist. In order to avoid the knife, Yan Liang showed superb equestrian skills, turned over and dismounted beautifully, and then jumped on the horse again, sweeping the sword towards Guan Yu's chest.

collar.

Guan Yu fell back and dodged the blow. However, he did not expect that Yan Liang's blade was sharp. The blade almost brushed the rope of the bag where his beard was tied, and cut the rope.

The bag fell to the ground, and the two-foot-long silky beard was instantly exposed, swaying gently in the wind as if it were rejoicing.

Seeing this scene, Chen Mu, who was watching the battle with a telescope on the hillside in the distance, suddenly frowned.

Having a beard that is too long is not a good thing. Once the movements are too large, it will cause the beard to float and occasionally block the field of vision. Therefore, it was actually a very troublesome thing for generals with long beards to fight in ancient times.

It's just that in ancient traditional concepts, the hair and skin of the body are inherited from the parents. Hair and beards cannot be cut casually. This is why Cao Cao replaced his head with hair.

Therefore, according to records, when Qin and Han generals fought, they would often use a bag to tie up their beards and secure them.

From the Northern and Southern Dynasties to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, military generals followed the customs of the Hu people and would tie their beards into braid-like structures. For example, in the pottery figurine models of Sui Dynasty military generals unearthed in modern times, those Sui Dynasty generals had beards in the shape of fishbone braids and braids.

At this time, it was the end of the Han Dynasty, and the barbarians had not yet influenced the people to tie their beards into braids. Therefore, every time Guan Yu fought, he would use a bag to wrap his beard and tie ropes around it to secure it.

Later, after Guan Yu was captured by Cao Cao in the Battle of Tucheng, Cao Cao envied Guan Yu's beard and asked him how he maintained it. Hearing that Guan Yu used soap gauze bags to wrap his beard, Cao Cao ordered him to make a beard bag with gauze brocade.

, presented to Guan Yu as a sign of friendship.

Now Guan Yu's beard bag has actually been knocked down, which is definitely not good news for the battle situation. Because of the obstruction of the beard, Guan Yu's original force value of 99 is likely to be reduced to 96, which is equivalent to Yan Liang.

It’s not even certain that you will fall into a disadvantage. After all, the battle between masters often happens in a split second. No one can say whether the battle will fail due to the momentary obstruction of vision.

The ensuing battle was just as Chen Mu expected. Guan Yu was hampered by his beard and could not use his full strength. There were even several times when Guan Yu had to stop his attacking rhythm to protect his beard from fluttering and covering himself.

vision or wrap your arms.

On the contrary, Yan Liang became more and more courageous as he fought. After the eightieth round, he actually started to gain the upper hand. At the beginning, Guan Yu attacked more and defended less. Even though the first three swords did not work, he still suppressed Yan Liang and did not give any blow.

He has a chance to counterattack.

But now it turns out that Yan Liang has more offense than defense, and the broadsword keeps slashing and swinging downwards. The bulging muscles of Qiu's powerful arms seem to be filled with infinite power. The blades of both sides collide, sparks fly, and the sounds of friction and fighting are endless.

"The second general is in danger."

Ah Da, Ah Er, Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and others looked from a distance. Although they were too far away, they could only see two black spots fighting continuously, but with the flash of swords and shadows, they could still detect that Guan Yu was at a slight disadvantage.

This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Chen Mu thought for a while, but relaxed his brows and said with a smile: "It's not dangerous. I'm actually worried that my second brother will not be able to do it because of his arrogance.

If you are willing to lure Yan Liang here, you don't have to worry now. The second brother is not a pedantic person. When we get to that point, we have to use tricks."

He had previously wanted to use moral kidnapping to force Guan Yu to lure Yan Liang into an ambush, but even if he used moral kidnapping, based on Chen Mu's understanding of Guan Yu for more than ten years, he felt that it was only a 50-50 number. Whether he could succeed or not was still a matter of time.

It depends on what Guan Yu thinks.

But now it seems that it should be more than 90%. Because judging from Guan Yu's plan to kill Cai Yang and seduce Huang Zhong, at the critical moment, he will never choose to use more "despicable" means because of his arrogance.

In Guan Yu's heart, the word "righteousness" ranked first, followed by the Han Dynasty, and finally the pride in his heart.

So seeing Guan Yu unexpectedly fall into a disadvantage, Chen Mu felt relieved.

Things did go as Chen Mu expected. The two horses ran on the ground, throwing up a lot of dust. The battlefield was gradually shrouded in fog, making it difficult to see clearly.

However, this fog seems to be moving, slowly moving closer to the north, and slowly extending this way.

Guan Yu is indeed as Chen Mu thought, there is nothing he can do.

He really wanted to have a fair fight with Yan Liang, but his beard seriously hindered his actions.

This is somewhat unfair to him.

Don't say anything. The growth of your beard is your own business. Since you are going to the battlefield to kill the enemy, why not cut off your beard?

Because people of later generations cannot discuss the values ​​of later generations on the values ​​of the ancients.

It’s no joke that parents are affected by their body, hair, and skin.

In that era, only prisoners would have their hair and beards cut off. This was a shame, so it was impossible for Guan Yu to cut off his beard.

So since his beard has seriously hindered him, Guan Yu knows that if he doesn't take special measures, defeat will happen sooner or later. He has to follow what Chen Mu said before the war and lead Yan Liang to the ambush.

The approach is indeed rather despicable.

But soldiers are not afraid of deceit, and Yan Liang followed Yuan Shao. Whether it was to protect the Han Dynasty or for the career of his elder brother Liu Bei, Guan Yu had reasons for doing this.

The two men continued to fight fiercely, with the swords in their hands spinning like windwheels, dust rising, and soldiers from both sides shouting loudly in support.

Guan Hai came to the front of the formation, set down the drum, and kept beating it.

“Dong-dong-dong-dong-dong-dong!”

"Hoo ho ho ho ho ho ho!"

There were bursts of cheers.

Not to be outdone, Yuan Jun also took out his bronze drum and beat it continuously.

Dust was flying in front of the formation, and the blades collided.

After a while, the sound of weapons clashing suddenly stopped, and the dust began to disperse.

Everyone saw that Guan Yu and Yan Liang were about three feet away from each other. For some reason, Yan Liang actually stopped the attack, stagnated in place, and stopped pursuing.

The two looked at each other, breathing heavily, with the sword in their hands drooping. They were covered in sweat, and the sweat had already wet their foreheads and temples.

"what happened?"

"It seems that there is no fighting anymore. Are you exhausted?"

"I don't know, maybe. It's been almost an hour since the fight at noon."

The soldiers on both sides talked a lot, the war drums gradually stopped, and the scene became quiet.

Just when the soldiers on both sides were puzzled, Yan Liang on the field said to Guan Yu: "Guan Yu, your beard is messed up. If I defeat you, I will not win with force. You can go back and tie your beard before coming back."

"oh?"

Guan Yu narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and said, "That's fine."

After saying that, the two men turned their horses and returned to camp.

After Yan Liang returned to the camp, generals such as Meng Dai, Shi Huan, and Ma Yan quickly gathered around and asked about the situation.

Yan Liang sighed and said: "That Guan Yu is really powerful. I fought hard with him for an unknown amount of time, and because his beard was messy, I was able to suppress him. But if I continue to fight, I will lose my strength, so I have to find an excuse to come back and rest."

Meng Dai frowned and said: "General, if this is the case, he will also rest. And if he ties up his beard by then, won't he be even more powerful in battle? If so, I'm afraid..."

Yan Liang laughed and said: "Don't worry, generals, I have found a way to deal with him. During the fight, I noticed that he seemed to cherish his beard. When we waited for another fight, I attacked him fiercely, forcing him to

If he only has the strength to defend and does not dare to attack, then the battle will be won."

Several people looked at each other and praised each other: "The general is wise."

Guan Yu also returned to camp here.

After all, he is several years younger than Yan Liang. The most important thing is that he is a top-notch general in the world and has amazing physical strength. Yan Liang has begun to decline, and he is at his peak, so Yan Liang has played more than a hundred rounds and his physical strength is gradually exhausted.

, but he still has some energy left.

To be honest, according to Guan Yu's own estimation, even if he was hindered by his beard, it would not be a problem to fight for another 300 rounds. However, Yan Liang found a high-sounding reason. It happened that he really cherished his beard, so he agreed to Yan Liang's request.

After returning to their own camp, Guan Ping, Guan Hai and others quickly gathered around. Guan Hai held a cloth bag in his hand. Guan Ping was the first to step forward and asked: "Father, did Yan Liang agree to a truce with you?"

"He asked for it."

Guan Yu put a cloth bag on his beard and tied it with a few more ropes this time. He said: "But I have noticed that he is exhausted. If the stalemate continues, there is no chance of winning, so he used me

On the grounds that the soap gauze bag fell, the war is temporarily suspended."

Hearing Guan Yu's words, Guan Ping was overjoyed and said: "If this is the case, wouldn't Yan Liang be unable to defeat his father at all? Even if he is exhausted, he can be exhausted to death."

"It's not that easy."

After Guan Yu put on his beard, he subconsciously wanted to touch the beard, but he touched the cloth bag. He smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: "This guy is difficult to deal with. His moves are very insidious. I suspect he has a killer move. It seems,

This time I have to rely on your fourth uncle."

Guan Ping and others stopped talking.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After a while, Guan Yu rested for less than ten minutes, then mounted his horse again and prepared to fight.

He knew very well that Yan Liang said it was because of his beard that he asked him to go back and tie it up again. In fact, he just wanted to take some time to rest and regain his strength.

But both Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have abnormal levels of physical strength. An ordinary person can swing a sword weighing more than ten kilograms among thousands of troops and be out of breath after cutting a few times. And these fierce generals, such as Xiang Yu and Yang Zaixing,

, Ran Min, and Xia Luqi all have records of killing hundreds of people by one person in history.

Among the Five Tiger Generals, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, and Ma Chao are definitely not as good as these perverted figures, but they are only weak. Especially Guan Yu, the leader of the Five Tigers, is at the peak of his physical fitness and recovery ability.

, much stronger than Yan Liang.

Therefore, Guan Yu had no intention of letting Yan Liang recover his strength. After tying up the sack, he immediately decided to go out again. This time he was completely sure that as long as Yan Liang dared to fight him to the death, he would definitely kill Yan Liang.

Moreover, although Yan Liang's words were high-sounding, he really asked Guan Yu to protect his beloved beard again. If Yan Liang had no other dirty tricks, Guan Yu did not intend to lead him into an ambush.

However, although Guan Yu came to the front of the formation to call for formation, Yan Liang sent someone out to tell him to go back and drink some water, and asked him to wait. There was almost no news, and he did not come back for almost two quarters of an hour.

Guan Yu remained patient, still sitting on the horse and waiting. Almost half an hour passed, and Yan Liang had almost recovered, so he arrived belatedly.

It was almost evening at this time, and it was already the beginning of the day, which was around five o'clock in the afternoon.

The sun sets in the west, and a large swath of gorgeous sunset glow rises in the west.

Guan Yu looked at Yan Liang, who had recovered his strength, and sneered: "I've almost recovered my strength. There should be no excuses this time."

Yan Liang said in a deep voice: "Guan Yu, I saw that your beard disrupted our decisive battle, so I gave you a chance to go back and tie your beard. I didn't expect you to slander me. It seems that you are just a small person!"

"snort."

Guan Yu said coldly and sternly: "I will kill you, the rebellious ministers and traitors."

After saying that, he urged his horse forward.

At this moment, Yan Liang drew his knife and stabbed Guan Yu's neck. The blade was actually pointed directly at his beard!
