Chapter 672 Burning Bowen

During the Jingzhou War, Guan Yu passed Li Songde's advice and won consecutive battles and drove most of Yuan Shang's troops from southeast of Jingzhou to the north of Jingzhou, spanning three hundred miles, approaching Bowangpo, and the front line was lengthened and long. Looking at the past and present, it was difficult to compare.

After arriving at Bowangpo, Guan Yu, following Li Song's suggestion, prepared to accumulate military strength, and prepared to complete the battle to completely break up Yuan Shang's army.

Just as Guan Yu was preparing to attack, the explorer suddenly came to report that Yuan Shang's army had already retreated and headed straight to the north. The front vanguard's army and the central army had entered Bowangpo. Only a few soldiers who had cut off the rear were still waiting for the opportunity to set off at the entrance of the southern valley of Bowangpo.

When Guan Yu was around, Li Song hurriedly advised him: "General Guan, Yuan Shang has already developed the intention to retreat. If you don't pursue him at this time, when will you wait?"

Guan Yu nodded when he heard this, deeply resonated with Li Song's words, and immediately ordered the entire army to advance, chase Yuan Shang's rear, and cover up and kill his people.

Guan Yu himself was the pioneer in the front, led the elite cavalry of Jingzhou to lead the way and headed straight to the entrance of Bowangpo Valley.

When we arrived at the entrance of the valley, we saw a Biao army blocking the road. The two generals were led by Zhang He, a famous general from Hebei and Zhang Liao, a famous general from the Central Plains.

When he saw Guan Yu coming, the two Zhang's faces changed. Then he looked at each other and saw Zhang Liao taking the lead, raised his sword and said to Guan Yu, "Yunchang, you have won the battle in Jingzhou, why bother to force each other! What's the point?"

When Guan Yu heard this, he was unmoved. He just gently stroked the long beards of the three wings and said indifferently: "The two armies are fighting, each of them is their own masters, and each of them does their best. How can they use the four words of hard work to force each other? Wen Yuan said this to be a petty family!"

Zhang He rode his gun and horse, rushed out directly, and said loudly: "Wenyuan should talk nonsense to him! I will capture him together!"

When Zhang Liao saw Zhang He coming out, he cheered up and rode his gun up.

Seeing that Zhang Liao and Zhang He were on the horse together, Guan Yu did not seek help, but waved the Qinglong sword and headed forward, fighting with two Zhangs with his own strength.

Zhang Liao and Zhang He were both good generals in the world. Guan Yu was still not afraid of one and two, and he was at ease. He had the upper hand in the 20 to 30 rounds. He suppressed the two Zhangs. The Qinglong and Quiet Moon Sword was like a dragon coming out of the water, roaring on the silk. It was so powerful that it could almost cover the sky and the sun.

Although Er Zhang was brave, he still seemed unable to do anything in the face of such momentum. He could no longer resist the battle after thirty rounds. He went back together to retreat.

Guan Yu rode his horse to chase, but was shot by the enemy's archers and cavalrymen. Otherwise, how could the two of them easily escape with the strength of the neighing Red Rabbit Horse?

The main general failed, and Yuan's army had no intention of fighting anymore. They returned to the army and retreated to Bowangpo.

Guan Yu slid the Qinglong sword in front of him, narrowed his eyes and looked at the direction of Yuan Jun's retreat. Guan Pingzong stepped forward and said to Guan Yu, "Father, is it not to pursue him?"

Guan Yu looked proud and sneered when he heard this. He said, "Ping'er, how is our army's current morale?"

"From Jingdong to Jingbei, our army won consecutive battles and everyone was ready. All the soldiers in Jingzhou were ready. Just wait for my father's order to move forward with all their might and slaughter the Yuan army!"

Guan Yu smiled darkly and said with a smile: "Guan's command is full of warriors who serve as one hundred. He raises troops for a thousand days and uses troops for a while. Now is the time to show their strength... Hear the order, the whole army will start and follow me to pursue Yuan's army!"

"promise!"

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

In the Bowang slope, between the sheep's intestines, on the twilight road, there is a solemn and sad beauty. The sunset is still reluctant to stay in the West, and the sky has begun to turn black and begin to see the stars. The stars appear one by one, like God's illumination lamp, emitting a faint light, shining on the Bowang slope.

The entire Bowang slope is composed of various valleys, with dense forests on the valley, and the ground is covered with green grass. It is very interesting to sway left and right under the blowing of the light wind. However, although the valley is dark and wet, there are no birds and animals, as if the animals inside are all spiritual. They feel that a war is about to take place here, so they hurriedly moved away.

Guan Yu led the Jingzhou army to break forward and fiercely. He had repelled Yuan Shang's blocking troops several times in Bowangpo. Now his momentum is in full swing. Based on Guan Yu's experience in fighting and the frequency of enemy troops being cut off, he felt that his army was not far from Yuan Shang's main force at this moment. According to the situation of the enemy's fight with him, his side should have an 80% chance of winning in this battle!

Not far behind Guan Yu, General Zhao Lei was walking quickly while observing the movements of Bowangpo. For some reason, he always had a vague premonition in his heart, but at this time his troops were in a state of upright morale and strong. If he had no real evidence, he would just take out his feelings and worry and talk to Guan Yu, he would probably be scolded by the general.

"The road is quite narrow, with dense grass on both sides, and birds and beasts..." Zhao Lei muttered and sighed quietly. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, slapped his thighs heavily, and said in surprise: "Oh no, not good!"

Aside Zhao Lei, a deputy general of Jingzhou couldn't help but be curious when he heard this. He turned to see Zhao Lei and said in confusion: "What's wrong with it? What does General Zhao mean?"

The cold sweat on Zhao Lei's head fell down, and he shook his head and said, "It's too late to explain. I'll report to General Guan first, stop your brothers here, let them stop, and stop chasing..."

Before Zhao Lei could finish his words, he suddenly heard a roar on both sides of the valley. Impressed, on the slopes of the valley on both sides in front, there seemed to be countless fires rising into the sky. In an instant, countless torches were raised. The Bowangpo, which was still quite dark, suddenly became like daytime.

Then, a shout came from the front, and the earth seemed to begin to tremble slightly. It was faintly that the soldiers of the front army were already surrounded by flames, and countless rockets began to shoot wildly towards the Jingzhou army, which were broken by each division, and huge fireballs of vine-woven fireballs also began to appear on both sides of the mountain road.

The huge section of Bowangpo Valley has instantly turned into a purgatory fire scene, as if it was a purgatory fire platform, which tightly included the soldiers of Jingzhou in the fierce fire, swallowed their lives and burned their bodies.

After a series of designs, Yuan Shang finally found out his plan and killer moves against Guan Yu finally made his debut.

In the army in front of Guan Yu, he was shocked by this sudden change, but he was not an idiot after all. After understanding Yuan Jun’s plan, he had taken the most prudent response measures in an instant.

"Retreat! Retreat quickly! Order the soldiers of the three armies to retreat quickly!"

Facing the fire in the sky, Bowangpo, which is as hot as hell, even if he is the world's number one general like Guan Yu, he will not have the power to turn the world back.

At this moment, I vaguely listened to Yuan Shang's voice faintly above the valley to the right.

"Chen Guan Yun, your death is coming, don't even want to escape!"

…………

"Father, I will protect you!"

In the midst of danger, Guan Ping and Guan Xing were already running to Guan Yu, fiddling with the rain of arrows coming from the sky, while protecting Guan Yu, hurried towards the Bowangpo.

Guan Yu's tall body was sitting on the Red Rabbit Horse, following his two sons clashing backwards in the fire. His face was charred black, his long beard, which was as straight as a waterfall on his jaw, was burned, and the green clothing under the armor was burned to lack of arms and materials, which looked extremely embarrassed. But even so, his body was still as straight as a knife, with bright eyes and sharp as an arrow.

"General Guan!"

"General Guan!"

Not far away, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua, Zhao Lei, Wang Fu and others encouraged Yu Yong and hurried over with their men and horses, protecting Guan Yu and running away!

Guan Yu took a deep breath, raised his voice fiercely, and said loudly: "All the generals obeyed the orders. Yuan Shang used fire to attack, and there must be ambushing troops to respond. Everyone should not fight. Guan took the lead and tried his best to kill the valley entrance!"

The blood was boiling again in the cold body. Every Jingzhou general who heard this knew very well that Guan Yu's words not only brought hope to the survivors to continue to live, but also brought him endless danger. In this way, Yuan Shang will save time to clear the battlefield and directly set up a net of heaven and earth to chase Guan Yu with all his might!

However, they misunderstood Yuan Shang’s real intention!

Yuan Shang’s battle was not to kill Guan Yu, but to defeat the main force of the Jingzhou Army!

Regarding Guan Yu himself, Yuan Shang believed that the fire should not burn him to death, and he had already given strict orders to intercept the ambush, so he would never hurt Guan Yu's life!

Sima Yi walked to Yuan Shang on the Bowangpo Valley reflected by the raging fire.

"This battle is enough to save the disadvantage."

Yuan Shang nodded and said, "Start the generals, after defeating the enemy, do not kill Guan Yu. When pursuing, you only need to shout loudly! In addition, quickly divide the troops and seize the Xiangyang areas on the north bank of Jingzhou, but do not cross the river. All the troops below the county and county towns below Xiangyang cannot be interfered with."

Sima Yi smiled and said, "You only take part of the city in Jingbei and the southern part of Jingzhou. I'm afraid you want to give it to Sun Quan?"

Yuan Shang smiled slightly and said, "It's not just the city, but also the head of Guan Yu."

Sima Yi thought for a while and said, "Sun Quan and Zhou Yu are also far-reaching people, and may not be able to kill Guan Yu."

Yuan Shang snorted and said, "They are no longer up to their final say for whom Guan Yu died. From the day Xu Huang pretended to surrender, Guan Yu's head was destined to fall into Sun Quan's hands. They didn't want it, and they couldn't do it."

Sima Yi sighed after hearing this and said, "I'm afraid it's not that easy. Sun Quan wants Jingzhou but doesn't want Guan Yu to die in his own hands. This is the same as our original intention. He and Zhou Yu are empty when they pull out a hair. Even if Xu Huang has Xu, they may not be able to do such a stupid thing."
