I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 797 Military God Retires

Soon, Zhou Yu's spies in Jiangbei roughly found out Guan Yu's movements.

Rumors have begun to spread in the north of the Yangtze River, saying that Guan Yu has been suffering from headaches for many years, and now that he has come to the south, his attacks have become more frequent because he is not accustomed to the acclimatization.

After learning the news, Zhou Yu immediately fell into deep thought.

He was a little worried that the news was false and was deliberately used by Guan Yu to lure him ashore and attack his camp.

But if this matter is true, it would be a pity to let this opportunity go in vain.

Zhou Yu is still very eager to defeat Guan Yu.

You know, as the Great Han Military God, Guan Yu has an aura surrounding him, making others both envious and jealous.

I don't know since when, many people began to regard Guan Yu as the target they wanted to defeat.

And Zhou Yu is also one of these people.

If we can take this opportunity to defeat Guan Yu, it will definitely boost our own morale.

Once this opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to find such an opportunity in the future.

However, as Cao Cao and Liu Bei were at a stalemate, news came that Yuan Shao's battle situation in Jingzhou was not going well. Zhou Yu felt that he must defeat Guan Yu at this time!
The entire war along the Yangtze River was not going smoothly anywhere. If his side could not become a breakthrough, I am afraid that Jiangnan and Jingzhou would eventually be defeated by Liu Jian!
He must defeat Guan Yu.

Moreover, according to Zhou Yu's careful analysis, since Guan Yu saw through his previous sneak attack, Guan Yu had the opportunity to ambush him.

But, he didn't...

In this case, there is no reason for Guan Yu to set up such a strategy now.

After thinking about this, Zhou Yu finally made up his mind.

As winter approached, Zhou Yu began to give orders, leading the soldiers of the three armies to cross the river in large numbers and launch a fierce attack on Guan Yu's camp!

As expected, the other side was indeed prepared, and the two sides began a fierce battle on the north bank of Wujiang River.

Zhou Yu was relatively cautious at the beginning. He did not press all the soldiers on the opposite side, but first cautiously tested, and then began to gradually increase the pressure on the north bank.

Although Bei'an's counterattack was fierce, after Zhou Yu's observation, there was indeed something wrong with the opponent.

Although the defense was fierce, the dispatch of troops and horses was obviously not smooth enough, and the opponent still focused on defense and showed no signs of counterattack.

The most important thing is that Guan Yu has not appeared these days!
At such an important juncture when he dispatched troops to launch a massive attack on the north bank, as the god of war, Guan Yu, even if he could not come to the front line in person, would still appear to take command to enhance the combat effectiveness and morale of the three armies.

Now that Guan Yu doesn't appear, what does this mean?
Zhou Yu was no longer conservative. He began to order the soldiers of the three armies to attack Guan Yu's camp desperately, without giving the opponent any chance to breathe.

Take advantage of his illness to kill him!

Zhou Yu mobilized all his strength to attack, and even Dian Wei and Xu Chu, who were sent by Cao Cao to protect his safety, Zhou Yu sent them to the front line.

These two fierce generals are extremely brave. Although their ability to command troops and horses is poor, if such fierce generals are placed in the front line, the morale of the three armies will be greatly improved, thus improving the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.

Things did go as Zhou Yu had planned. After the two warriors Dian Wei and Xu Chu arrived at the front line, the guards they brought worked closely with them and killed all directions. In the position battle, they were able to overwhelm the North Army for a while. The army fights.

The morale of Cao's army was greatly boosted, and the soldiers rushed forward with all their strength. For a while, the Northern army retreated continuously. Although the formation was not in chaos, it was in a state of being suppressed.

Dian Wei and Xu Chu worked closely together, leading the tiger soldiers to rush to the gate of Guan Yu's camp.

……

Guan Ping, who had been supervising the battle in the front line, was so shocked that he was sweating when he saw this situation.

He left the matters before the battle to Shan Jing's command for the time being, while he hurried to the commander's tent to report to Guan Yu.

Guan Yu has indeed been suffering from dizziness for the past few days. He has been unable to stand up for several days in a row. Not only is he dizzy, but he also has a splitting headache.

However, after treatment by a famous doctor from Jiangnan, Guan Yu's headache was relieved, and this famous doctor from Jiangnan was named Zhang Ji.

Guan Yu is currently playing chess with Zhang Ji in the tent. Although his condition has improved, his face is still weak.

But even so, Guan Yu still forced himself to dress neatly and tried to sit in his position to play chess with Zhang Ji.

"Father! Zhou Yu's troops have already reached the camp gate!"

Guan Yu didn't reply. He just looked at Zhang Ji in front of him and said, "Miracle doctor, is Guan's illness a life-threatening illness?"

Zhang Ji shook his head solemnly: "Your Majesty, you don't need to worry. This disease will kill you in the short term. However, you need to have a good life and take good care of yourself. If you have a pure mind and few desires and don't get tired, your life can be extended... Your Majesty is a healthy person. As long as you If you put down your military affairs and take care of yourself, you don’t need to worry too much.”

Guan Yu sighed: "It is the most difficult thing to be pure and have few desires. Guan has been fighting for half his life, and now he sees that the world is about to be unified, but he has to leave the battlefield, how can he let go."

Zhang Ji said: "The prince has become famous all over the world. He has opened up territory for the Han Dynasty and has made outstanding achievements. The world's warriors cannot hope for success. Is there anything that I can't let go of?"

After hearing this, Guan Yu smiled lightly and said nothing.

Then, he turned to look at Guan Ping.

"Why are you panicking?"

Guan Ping said anxiously: "Father, Zhou Yu has already attacked the camp gate. The boy has no idea and has to come and report to his father!"

Guan Yu said seriously: "I have no idea now. When I wrote to your uncle, I had some ideas."

Hearing this, Guan Ping lowered his head in shame.

Zhang Ji said from the side: "The princes should not blame the young general. As a son of a man, the young general behaves like this and it is reasonable."

Guan Yu said: "What the miracle doctor said is absolutely true. I also know that this is out of his filial piety, so I don't blame you, I just encourage you." Then, Guan Yu stood up, but as soon as he stood up, he suddenly felt dizzy.

He then sat down again with a helpless expression on his face.

"Alas, Guan fought all his life to open up territory for the Han Dynasty. He never imagined that he would unify the world and be trapped in the capital for the rest of his life. From now on, he will start to take care of his old age..."

Speaking of this, Guan Yu raised his head and said to Guan Ping: "The world of this great man will depend on you from now on. This battlefield is no longer our battlefield. Now you are facing Zhou Yu, which is a test for you. This Difficulties, you have to deal with them no matter what.”

After saying that, Guan Yu waved his hand to Guan Ping, telling him to go to the front line to take command and not to disturb him again.

Guan Ping was stunned when he saw this, then bit his lips, turned around and walked out of the handsome tent.

Guan Yu looked at his back and sighed.

My child, don’t worry, your Uncle Yide is on his way here and he will win this battle, but what I want to see more as a father is your victory!

……

At this time, two fierce generals, Dian Wei and Xu Chu, had led Cao's army into the gate.

Their soldiers and horses began to advance towards Guan Yu's stronghold.

Guan Ping came to the front line and saw that the three armies were retreating steadily. He immediately ordered Sima: "The soldiers in the rear camp of our army are divided into two teams and take turns to fight. You will be the warlord."

"The second guard between the two formations is the military governor. If any of the soldiers in the front makes a move to retreat, the military governor will kill the retreating soldier to the ground without mercy."

"only!"

After Sima immediately accepted the order from Guan Ping, he suddenly thought of something and asked: "Young General, if I am the governor, what will you do?"

"I am a sergeant in the front line. If I give in, you can behead me."

"Ah? This!"

"Fly my flag, and the three armies will follow me forward!"

Guan Ping's move was taught to him by Guan Yu in the past.

Although this move is dangerous, it can greatly boost the morale of the soldiers in times of crisis.

As a general, although you must pay attention to protecting your own safety, you must also know how to make dangerous moves at critical moments to save the morale of the three armies, stabilize the three armies, and use your own safety to save morale.

Of course, as a general, you cannot take risks blindly.

However, now, in Guan Ping's opinion, is the time to take risks!

For Guan Ping, this war was a turning point in his life.

What is being tempered is not his ability to use troops, but his will.

Guan Yu, who is in command, understands very well that as long as he can overcome today's hurdle, Guan Ping can become the true successor to his career.

In fact, compared to Guan Ping who was fighting outside, Guan Yu was in a more nervous mood.

He still had a headache at the moment, but compared to his nervous mood, this headache was nothing.

Soon, Director Chunyu rushed in, cupped his hands to Guan Yu and said: "Junhou, young general, he has stabilized the situation!"

"The soldiers from Jiangnan are blocked from the camp gate and cannot advance even an inch!"

After hearing the news, Guan Yu's nervousness calmed down.

Then he saw him hurriedly asking Director Chunyu: "How did he organize his troops to fight the enemy?"

Director Chunyu did not dare to neglect, and immediately told Guan Yu about Guan Ping's approach to the battle, as well as about his personal participation in the battle.

After Guan Yu heard this, he stroked his beard with satisfaction and said, "My true son!"

Just as he said this, he suddenly reached out and rubbed his temple, obviously feeling a little dizzy again.

Zhang Ji stood up and wanted to prepare the medicine for Guan Yu himself.

As he walked out under the protection of the guards, he said: "It will be a great comfort for the prince to have such a tiger in his life, and he can feel at ease."

Guan Yu said: "According to the words of the divine doctor."

……

At the same time, Zhou Yu, who was commanding the soldiers to attack Guan Yu not far away, became anxious when he saw that the army could not attack the camp gate for a long time.

"If Guan Yu were not here, this battle would still be fought like this! If Guan Yu were here, wouldn't our army be defeated overnight?"

Zhou Yu stamped his feet angrily.

Afterwards, Zhou Yu ordered people to inquire about the situation on the battlefield.

Soon, he learned that the reason why his side was currently stuck at the camp gate by the enemy was because Guan Ping, son of Guan Yu, personally came to the front line to take the lead and boost the morale of the three armies!

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu immediately ordered Dian Wei and Xu Chu to find a way to behead Guan Ping!
If he could be killed, then the other army would surely be defeated without attacking.

However, at the same time, on the west side of the river, a fleet was heading in the direction of Zhou Yu's fleet.

The generals standing on the bow of the ship are Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, Pang De, and Yan Xing.
