Chapter 493
News of Zhang Fei's death spread wildly and spread throughout the world in just a short time. Guan Yu, who was still under Chang'an City, always felt uneasy a few days ago. He thought he was too tired, so he did not attack the city on a large scale these days. Zhao Yun led his men to test it under the city.
Yesterday morning, a group of people arrived in Chang'an. It turned out that Cao Zhang's men arrived. A scout told Guan Yu, but Guan Yu didn't care. There were only more than 10,000 people in total, which was not worth his efforts. Just waiting for Han Fei's army to arrive, he could attack the city in large numbers.
But what he didn't expect was that what he was waiting for was not Han Fei's army but a message sent by Shadow. When Guan Yu received the news, he was in the big tent. He stood up with his eyes wide open and glared at the person in front of him, and asked loudly: "What did you say? The head of a third brother from a family is like taking a sack and taking objects. How can he die at the hands of a slut! Do you know what the consequences of deceiving a family?"
The shadow kneeling in front of Guan Yu, and when he saw Guan Yu was about to swallow him alive, he immediately smiled bitterly: "Second General, the Third General He has really gone. At this moment, the military advisor has returned to Xuchang City with his coffin. The military advisor asked me to say to the second general: I would give up the words of hunting under Chang'an City before, and when will I attack again and wait for news about him."
When Guan Yu heard this, he reached out and pressed his chest, and shouted sadly: "It hurts so much!" He shouted, his eyes closed and his body looked straight, and then he lay down. Behind him, a personal guard rushed forward to support Guan Yu. Everyone surrounded him when they saw that. Everyone carried Guan Yu to his tent. At this time, the military doctor was urgently summoned.
He saw Guan Yu's situation and turned to Guan Ping and said, "The second general is angry and anxious. I will prescribe a medicine for him to keep the medicine until the disease is cured. But the eldest son still needs to comfort the second general. Don't be too sad, otherwise you may be in danger of death if you faint again."
"Thank you sir!" Guan Ping hurriedly thanked. The military doctor nodded, took out a pen and wrote a prescription, and then handed it to Guan Ping to read it first, and asked him to send a reliable person to follow him to get the medicine.
After taking the medicine, Guan Yu woke up quietly. As soon as he opened his eyes, he cried sadly: "Third brother, you left so early! Thinking of the oath that day, if it weren't for the big brother's career, I would have to go with you." After saying that, he had tears in his eyes and said to Guan Ping, who was guarding the bedside, "Go and prepare the spiritual case and sacrifice. I will see your third uncle off in the camp."
Guan Ping did not dare to disobey, so he immediately turned around and went out to prepare. Before leaving, he glanced at the guard beside him, and the guard nodded to him knowingly. Guan Ping knew that the guard understood what he meant, so he lifted the curtain and went out.
About an hour later, in front of the central army's tent, the spiritual case was set up. Guan Ping and all the generals were wearing mourning clothes. Standing behind Guan Yu, Guan Yu held a long incense and bowed to Zhang Fei's spirit card on the desk: "Third brother, you can go all the way! I will raise your wife and children. I will revenge you for another hatred!" After saying that, he bowed again, and then stood up four times in a row.
After getting up, his face was covered in frost. After turning around and sweeping everyone, he said without any emotion: "Rise the blood flag! Some family wants everyone in Chang'an City to pay for their lives!"
"Father, no!" Guan Ping was shocked when he heard Guan Yu's words. He hurriedly spoke to stop him.
Guan Yu glared at him and scolded angrily: "Uncle Ru, I have many preferential treatments for you on weekdays. Why don't you want to avenge him?"
"Father, it is inevitable that the two armies will fall in love with each other in battle. As the saying goes, the general will inevitably die in front of the formation, but this has nothing to do with the poor in Chang'an City! Please think twice!" Guan Ping said that he thought Guan Yu would listen to his words, but he didn't know that Guan Yu stepped forward and kicked Guan Ping to the ground. He shouted even more angrily: "I am the commander of the army. You dare not disobey your order!"
Guan Ping didn't expect that his father would lose his mind. He insisted on slaughtering the city, which undoubtedly made it more difficult to attack the city. But now, who else can dissuade his father besides himself? Thinking of this, Guan Ping struggled and wanted to get up to hug Guan Yu's thighs.
At this moment, a white dragon horse rushed over and jumped off immediately. Zhao Yun was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him, and then saluted to Guan Yu and said, "Second General, what happened? Why are you dressing like this?"
When Guan Yu saw that it was Zhao Yun, he sighed and said, "Zilong, Yide is gone."
"Ah!" Zhao Yun was also shocked when he heard this. Before that, he led his troops out of the camp to harass Chang'an City. Later, a scout reported that Guan Yu fainted in the tent. Zhao Yun dared to withdraw his troops. He rode his horse in the camp in order to hurry up. "Three generals, why... why..." Zhao Yun didn't say anything for a moment.
After a while, he asked Guan Yu in a deep voice, "What should you do for the second general for the current plan?"
When Guan Yu heard Zhao Yun’s question, he raised his eyebrows and said with a grudge: “I want to raise the blood flag and slaughter the city. Please help me!”
Zhao Yun took a breath after hearing this, and he looked at Guan Yu in horror. He never expected Guan Yu to be so cruel. Although there was a saying that kindness would not be in charge of the army, Zhao Yun could not accept it if he really massacred the city.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Yun felt that Guan Yu was not such an ignorant person, so he asked Guan Yu quietly, "Second General, are you using a trick?"
"Hmm?" Guan Yu stared at Zhao Yun for a moment, nodded slowly and said, "Zilong will help me!"
Zhao Yun nodded. When Guan Ping saw that Zhao Yun was no longer stopping him, he stopped talking. Seeing that no one objected, Guan Yu ordered a blood flag to be hung in the camp.
As soon as the blood flag came out, a group of people in Chang'an City suddenly became a mess. What a terrifying word for massacre! From generals to poor people, they were in panic all day long. For three consecutive days, Guan Yu ordered not to attack the city, and the second was to speed up the production of siege equipment and act like he wanted to attack. At the same time, he asked the cavalry to quietly leave the camp at night, and when he was in the daytime, he returned to the camp with great fanfare, making the Cao army in the city mistakenly think that a large number of reinforcements were coming. For three consecutive days, the people in the city could see a large number of cavalry coming every day, and Cao Ren could not sit still at this time. He hurriedly called Cao Hong and Cao Zhang to discuss countermeasures.
