Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 946 Many twists and turns
Wen Chou was injured, and everyone in Cao camp saw it clearly, and they all felt tight in their hearts.

Although Guan Yu and Cao Ying fought several times, they did not kill Cao Ying's generals. The reason was not that the generals had better martial arts than Wen Chou, but that they would not choose to fight Guan Yu in a one-on-one fight.

They knew the current situation very well and knew that they could not defeat them, so they either commanded people to besiege from a distance, or they avoided fighting when Guan Yu came to kill them. They were really forced to fight with no other options, and they also looked for opportunities to retreat, like Wen Chou is doing now, fighting Guan Yu to the death. There has never been a fight between them.

When the generals of Cao's army were amazed that Wen Chou could fight Guan Yu with so many moves, they also secretly cursed Wen Chou for not knowing how to advance or retreat. Now he and Guan Yu are fighting like a tiger, and it is difficult for both sides to escape. If this continues, Wen Chou will not be able to escape if he is not careful. of!
But under the current situation, no one would risk their lives to rescue Wen Chou. Xia Houyuan stared at Wen Chou's back, and a thought suddenly came to his mind. As a surrendered general of Jizhou, Wen Chou was not loyal to Ming Gong. He could not be doing it on purpose now. Defeated and captured by Guan Yu, right?

The more he thought about it, the more likely it was that he thought it was possible, so he turned a deaf ear to Le Jin's request to come up and help. Instead, he kept an eye on the field to see if Wen Chou was what he thought. If the other party really surrendered on purpose and damaged the morale of Cao's army, he would have to do it. Go back and report to Duke Ming, and ask your family members to blame!
Guan Yu succeeded with the sword and felt that Wen Chou should also run away. His hand unconsciously relaxed, but he didn't expect that Wen Chou shouted loudly, retreated instead of advancing, flicked the iron gun, and stabbed Guan Yu in the face.

This was beyond Guan Yu's expectation. In the midst of his busy schedule, he turned to one side and the spear tip pierced his shoulder armor. Although it did not penetrate, the force of Wen Chou's impact still shook Guan Yu's body so much that he almost Falling off a horse.

At this time, Guan Yu also aroused the real fire. He immediately roared and struck down with the Qinglong Saber. Wen Chou raised his gun to block it. There was a roar of gold and iron. Wen Chou's tiger's mouth was shocked and bleeding, and the fine iron gun shaft was also chopped out. A gap.

Guan Yu took advantage of the situation and lowered the blade, flicking and dragging it, making a long gash on Wen Chou's thigh.

However, the next moment, Wen Chou took advantage of Guan Yu's sword strength, pointed out his spear, and stabbed Guan Yu in the chest.

Guan Yu only felt a tightness in his chest and his tongue felt sweet. He knew that he was seriously injured. He became more and more angry and shouted again. The Qinglong knife swept back and slashed Wen Chou on the arm.

Wen Chou's arm armor was chopped off and he couldn't lift his arm, but he seemed to be aroused with ferocity. He used his other hand to exert force suddenly, and the iron gun bounced up and penetrated directly into the gap in Guan Yu's shoulder armor. With a pop, it pierced Guan Yu's arm. , blood surged out.

If we leave now, we can still leave. The thought just popped up in Wen Chou's mind, and he immediately drove it away, and then roared again: "Guan Yu, watch the gun!"

Wen Chou felt that his arms were getting heavier and heavier, and the strength he had inexplicably regained was quickly passing away. Although Guan Yu was stabbed in several places by him, the injuries were not serious. On the other hand, Wen Chou had at least a dozen bleeding wounds on his body. If this continues, he I will definitely work hard first!
The breath of death lingered in Wen Chou's heart, but there was no trace of fear on his face. On the contrary, it flashed with excitement and relief. This was the life and death fight he wanted. With this fight in his life, there would be no regrets. !
He roared and thrust out the gun with all his strength, but was chopped off by Guan Yu's Qinglong Saber. Then the blade landed on Wen Chou's shoulder, and blood spattered everywhere in an instant.

The Qinglong Saber in his hand was shaking slightly. It was obvious that he didn't have much strength left, but he could still swing the Qinglong Saber.

Wen Chou's armor had already been cut to pieces, and now the blade completely stabbed his stomach. As the Qinglong knife sliced ​​open, Wen Chou felt his internal organs flowing out, and he knew he was finished.

At this moment, Wen Chou's arms could no longer lift the iron spear, and he fell softly.

The two men fought like a whirlwind, fighting from one side of the battlefield to the other, then turning back and circling back and forth several times. Finally, the two horses finally slowed down.

Guan Yu also showed a strange look in his eyes, and shouted: "Okay! Come!"

The two of them exerted their last strength and fought together again. The two of them, covered in blood, seemed to have thrown away all their distracting thoughts. There was only a big sword and an iron gun left between heaven and earth.

Everyone in Cao camp suddenly cheered. This was the first time in the past two years that they saw Guan Yu injured and bleeding!

Guan Yu felt his arms were sore and numb, and his heart suddenly trembled. He still underestimated Wen Chou's ferocity. The opponent actually wanted to die together. If he didn't try his best, it would be hard to say whether he would win or lose!
Guan Yu came to his senses, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He let out a cry, used both arms to exert force, and raised the Green Dragon Sword high above his head, circled it several times, and then struck it down like lightning!

The iron gun clanged, and was bounced back by the long knife. The tip of the gun fell to the ground. Wen Chou wanted to use the gun again, but his body no longer had any extra strength. He tried several times, but his arms could no longer be raised. The iron gun on the ground had no choice but to raise its head and look silently at Guan Yu in front of him.

Guan Yu turned his head and the tip of the spear passed by. Guan Yu felt his face was burning. He subconsciously reached out with the knife and stabbed Wen Chou heavily in the abdomen.

Wen Chou saw that Guan Yu's sword was moving very fast, and the injury on his shoulder seemed to have no effect on him. At that moment, he used all his strength, the iron spear wrapped around him like a dragon, grabbed the gap of the Qinglong Saber, and stabbed Guan Yu in the face!
The sound of fighting sounded again. This time, although both of them were injured and their speed was not as fast as before, they fought for their lives and were far more dangerous than before. Everyone in Cao camp could see clearly that this was a life and death fight!
Guan Yu Wen Chou urged the horse on his crotch, circling like a gust of wind, and his upper body was covered by the opponent's weapons. If he was not careful, he would be disemboweled. The wounds on the two of them continued to increase. This was a life-and-death battle. , no one can escape, either oneself or the other party falls, only one person can survive!

Guan Yu didn't say anything. He took half a step forward on his horse, then stopped and looked directly at Wen Chou.

Just when Guan Yu thought Wen Chou was finally going to admit defeat, Wen Chou's eyes flashed with light, blood spurted from his arms, and he actually raised the iron spear again and stabbed Guan Yu with all his strength!

The outcome has been decided.

The two stared at each other in silence for a few breaths, but Guan Yu had already seen the answer in Wen Chou's eyes and slowly raised the Qinglong Sword.

The blade gradually rose, passed over Guan Yu's head, and then stopped. Guan Yu said: "Why don't you leave?"

Wen Chou's pale face was bloodless, as if all the blood had drained away. He opened his mouth and felt that his throat was full of blood foam. He reluctantly used his last bit of strength to make a low and hoarse voice.

"Come!"

Guan Yu was startled for a moment, and then a look of understanding appeared in his eyes.

"it is good!"

The Qinglong sword slashed horizontally.

With a column of blood, Wen Chou's head flew high in the air. When everyone looked up, at this moment, Wen Chou's head caught up with the rising sun.

Wen Chou's headless body swayed a few times on the horse, then fell down in the dust.

Guan Yu turned his horse's head, facing away from the people in Cao's camp, and walked slowly towards his formation.

Everyone in Cao's camp looked at each other, Xia Houyuan looked complicated. He stared at Wen Chou's corpse in the distance, feeling bored. He asked people to go forward and collect Wen Chou's corpse, then ordered his troops to retreat and retreated ten miles.

After that, the two sides fought several times and each suffered damage. However, the morale of Cao Cao's camp was low. Xia Houyuan thought for a long time and finally wrote down the situation and reported it to Cao Cao.

After more than half a month of confrontation, Cao Cao's army was still unable to pose a threat to Fancheng, and then Cao Cao's letter ordering the withdrawal of troops finally arrived.

After hearing the news, the generals in Cao Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that they could live a stable year this time.

After Cao's army plundered near Fancheng, they broke camp and returned to Wancheng in the north, leaving only devastation on the ground. Guan Yu watched them leave from the top of the city, and then reported to Liu Bei in Xiangyang that Fancheng was safe.

But Guan Yu understood that Cao Cao would definitely launch an offensive on the upper reaches of the Han River in the coming year. When the time came, Fancheng would have to face more than just the land route.

At this time, the war in Bingzhou has not come to an end. In the past few months, many changes have taken place.

Originally, Yuan Xi used sabotage and infiltration methods to panic people in Jinyang City, and frame-ups and killings often occurred. Seeing that Jinyang was about to collapse, a Cao army reinforcements coming from the direction of Huaicheng broke through to the south. The high-ranking defense line entered Jinyang.

Not only did he bring a lot of supplies to Jinyang, but he also restored the morale of Jinyang that was about to collapse. Yuan Xi had no choice but to send Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun to bypass Jinyang and go south to assist high-ranking officials and repel the follow-up troops from Huaicheng. of reinforcements.

Yuan Xi had to admit that he had made some miscalculations in this matter, because normally, if Cao Cao captured Hanzhong, he would inevitably be jealous of Ma Teng and Han Sui. In order to guard against Ma Han's suspicion, Huaicheng should have heavily defended Huaicheng. , to prevent the other side from rebelling.

Unexpectedly, Huaicheng did the opposite. Instead of holding on to the city, he sent troops to help the Jinyang Southern Xiongnu who were supposedly abandoned. This clever strategy deceived Yuan Xi and Gao Gan at the same time, and served as Jinyang's leader. The Southern Huns continued their lives.

Yuan Xi could guess that the person who came up with this plan was probably a drunkard who was not interested in drinking. The longer he delayed, the more time Cao Cao had to pacify Jingzhou. If Cao Cao could capture Maicheng or even Xiangyang during this period, , we can completely control the Han River.

Then Cao Cao can first send people to defend Xiangyang, and then turn around to integrate the Sili and attack the rear of the senior cadres. At that time, Yuan Xi's side will be passive.

Fortunately, the news came that Guan Yu defended Maicheng and killed Wen Chou. At the same time, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao also joined forces to repel the subsequent reinforcements sent by Huaicheng and solved the siege of Gao Gan.

Although there were twists and turns in the Bingzhou military affairs, the attitude of senior officials became much more respectful after this incident. The battlefield was the most convincing. Previously, senior officials thought that their power could be in a similar position to Yuan Xi, but After these few battles, senior officials gradually understood their position, which was also a good thing for Yuan Xi.

Now, inside Yuan Xi's camp, a pot of vegetable porridge was being cooked, and Yang Feng, who looked haggard, was sitting in front of the pot, devouring it.
