Chapter 296 Xuzhou City
Dian Wei and Guan Yu fought fiercely with swords coming and going, and within ten rounds the winner was decided.

Guan Yu's physical strength was exhausted, and he couldn't even use Qinglong Fu's ultimate move, and the Spring and Autumn Saber Technique couldn't gather the saber momentum.

After Dian Wei flicked Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Saber, he said vigilantly: "Guan Yunchang, you have already lost! Your martial arts are not weak. If you are in a state of complete victory, it is not yet known who will win between you and me."

Although he already knew that Guan Yu had no power to fight back, Dian Wei was still wary of him.

Guan Yu chuckled, still proud and proud, with his chest raised and his head raised.

Stroking his beard, Guan Yu looked at Han Wu with contempt, and said imposingly: "Han Pengju, in Xiaguan Yunchang, this battle is exhausted, and he is willing to admit defeat."

"There is no need to compete in the next match. Guan admires Dianwei's martial arts."

"Guan will withdraw from Xuzhou City early tomorrow morning, and Mr. Han will take over the jurisdiction of Xuzhou City."

"I also ask Mr. Han to treat the people of Xuzhou kindly, and go south as soon as possible to help my elder brother fight against the rebellion and take back Yangzhou!"

Guan Yu spoke seriously, without any affectation.

After finishing speaking, before Han Wu could answer him, Guan Yu raised his hands and clasped his fists and led his troops back to the city.

Han Wu frowned slightly, feeling a lot more relaxed, no need to attack the city anymore.

Guo Jia looked at the lord's expression, and then said: "My lord is indeed wise! He took down Xuzhou City without a single soldier, and won the loyalty of the soldiers, brilliant!"

The volume was lowered, Guo Jia's compliments were only heard by Han Wu.

Han Wu snorted softly, and said, "Xuzhou City? When I led the troops south, Liu Bei already knew himself, so it should be given to me."

"Even if Liu Bei doesn't have the mental preparation and foresight, his counselor Xu Shu can think of it."

"Giving Xuzhou City is good for me and Liu Bei. In order to allow me to go south to crusade against the rebels, Lord Mu of Xuzhou did not hesitate to hand over his land and heavy city. This kind of reputation spread... Hey!"

"I won Xuzhou City for nothing, so I had to lead troops south to help Xuzhou Mu fight against the rebels and capture Yangzhou."

"One Xuzhou is exchanged for one Yangzhou and prestige, and now Zhang Fei is stationed in Guangling County, even if we want to win the whole Xuzhou, it will be very troublesome."

"Liu Bei's strategy is an overt scheme. It is beneficial to him as well as to us. His counselor is very smart."

Han Wu shook his head, admiring Xu Shu very much.

Liu Bei's willingness to give up Xuzhou must be his strategy.

Guo Jia also narrowed his eyes when he heard the lord's words, he had thought of these points a long time ago.

Moreover, Guo Jia is very fanatical now, and really wants to have the opportunity to compete with Liu Bei's counselor.

Military generals like to compete in martial arts, and counselors are naturally happy to fight wits.

Hua Mulan raised her eyebrows lightly, and said, "Even if Guan Yu is unwilling to let go of the mere city of Xuzhou, it will only take two or three days if the Jizhou army is overwhelming."

"The main reason why the lord is fighting for generals is not to reduce casualties, but because the lord is eager to love talent."

Han Wu's eyes widened at Hua Mulan's words, and he couldn't help clapping his hands in praise.

Han Wu laughed excitedly: "Hahaha! If you can guess my thoughts, you will be rewarded!"

"Guan Yu is a loyal man, whether it is martial arts or commanding ability, even in my account he is one of the best."

"Such a talent should let him have a good impression of me, so that he can have the opportunity to be used by me."

Han Wu narrowed his eyes, very satisfied with Hua Mulan's words.

Guo Jia couldn't help pursing her lips, and complained in her heart: "My lord, I naturally guessed what the lord said, but I didn't dare to say it! I guessed the lord's thoughts privately and guessed right again and again, and I will be punished sooner or later. That is the lord. The person next to the pillow can know everything."

Although he complained in his heart, Guo Jia still laughed and praised: "My lord is indeed very resourceful, I admire you!"

"It's just that Guan Yu was deceived by Liu Bei, and this loyal person is hard to be used by the lord!"

Hearing Guo Jia's compliment, Han Wu smiled happily and ignored his compliment.

"Difficult to use for me? No, suspicion is the most powerful weapon."

"Things must first rot, and then worms will grow; people must first doubt, and then slander them. Even if Liu Bei absolutely trusts Guan Yu, Guan Yu may not have left something in his heart."

"Once Liu Bei is dead, who can hold Guan Yu down?"

Guo Jia swallowed her saliva, and said as usual: "But my lord, the chances of this are a bit small! If my lord wants to use Guan Yu, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult."

Han Wu shook his head and said with a smile: "If I can get Guan Yu to trust me, then I have made a profit. Even if I can't, I won't lose money. If I can't get a loyal man like Guan Yu, then I will find a way to win over his heirs. The heirs of this person, They will definitely be good generals."

Guo Jia couldn't help admiring the fact that the lord had seen such a long-term perspective.

"Withdraw! Set up camp two miles away from Xuzhou City, and take over Xuzhou City tomorrow morning!"

Han Wu turned his horse's head and rode away.

On Xuzhou City, Guan Yu frowned and sighed, shaking his head helplessly.

The young general standing next to Guan Yu is almost 17 years old, but he already has Guan Yu's perseverance.

"Father, are we really giving up Xuzhou City like this?"

This young man was none other than Guan Yu's eldest son, Guan Ping!

Guan Yu smiled slightly and said, "Ping'er, this city of Xuzhou should have been handed over to Han Pengju."

"He is not a few years older than you, but he makes even the father feel afraid. What the father fears is the future development of this son!"

"If one day you encounter any danger, you can ask Han Pengju for help. He would rather fight a general than attack the city today. I probably understand what he means. However, he thinks too much."

Guan Yu smiled meaningfully, turned and walked down the city.

The guards immediately took over the Qinglong Yanyue Saber, and Guan Ping also thoughtfully followed his father down the tower.

In the city of Guangling County that night, Liu Bei was relieved to receive information about Xuzhou City.

He was still worried that his second brother would not be willing to give up Xuzhou and fight Han Wu.

Just fighting generals can solve the problem, and Liu Bei can be regarded as a worry.

Xu Shu frowned slightly, he seemed to see Han Wu's inner thoughts.

But this matter cannot be said, Xu Shu has self-knowledge.

"My lord, since Lord Inspector of Bingzhou has acquired Xuzhou City, he will definitely lead troops south to help us."

"At that time, we can promise to Lord Inspector of Bingzhou that all the areas north of Guangling County will be given to him, and we will occupy the entire Yangzhou."

After hearing Xu Shu's words, Liu Bei smiled subconsciously, but immediately revealed a look of sadness.

"Yuanzhi, if he will help Xuzhou and give it to Han Wu, then he will occupy the entire north."

"Thieves Cao moved the court and His Majesty south to Xishu, and Han Wu controls so much land, I'm afraid..."

Xu Shu understood Han Wu's thoughts, he just said: "Master, Han Wu's attack is unstoppable, even Cao Cao knows this."

"If Yuan Shao unified the four prefectures, Cao Cao would definitely not move south. But Han Wu is not Yuan Shao, and he is indeed very dangerous."

"My lord, don't worry too much. The Han family is Hanchen after all, and they won't do anything too extreme."

After hearing Xu Shu's consolation, Liu Bei was relieved.

Showing a look of concern for the country and the people, Liu Bei is really compassionate now!
