Chapter 56
Yufu's guard Zhao Miao, also the clan of Zhao Wei, was relatively steady and cautious in his actions. However, Quren was in danger and had to send troops to rescue him. Because once Quren lost, Yufu County would become an isolated land.
As a result, Zhao Miao gritted his teeth and sent two thousand troops to rescue him, and he was in charge of his own. He was not worried that Liu Biao would recover here because Liu Biao also hoped that Liu Xie's Shuzhou would be more chaotic, so he had no reason to help Liu Xie.
But unexpectedly, he was ambushed by Guan Yu's army as soon as he left the city.
Zhao Miao was defeated and retreated, leading the remaining troops back into Yufu, and asked the remaining troops to resist behind him. He returned to the city and asked people to pull up the suspension bridge again and close the city gate.
Seeing that the city gate was about to close, Guan Yu's eyes were so bitter that he roared and waved his sword, but was blocked by the remaining soldiers and could only watch.
At this moment, what no one expected was that a powerful general holding a big knife and riding a horse rushed out of the city, and with one knife, he cut off Zhao Miao! Then he rushed out of the city gate, shouted loudly, and slashed the big knife twice, breaking the two ropes twisted with iron wire next to the suspension bridge directly.
Seeing this situation, Guan Yu laughed, danced the Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand, and led his men to the city in an instant.
"What's the name of a hero? Thank you for your help!" Guan Yu rushed to the side of the sword-holding man, clasped his fists and said.
The big man grinned, "It's easy to say! Xu Chu and Xu Zhongkang of a certain family!"
"You are Xu Zhongkang? That Xu Laohu? It's really good at swordsmanship! Thank you Brother Xu for your help!" Guan Yu clasped his fists, and his face flashed with surprise. He thought to himself: Why did this Xu Chu appear here? Could it be that he also came to surrender to His Majesty?
Xu Chu couldn't help laughing and said, "Some family came here to help you, not for the general, but for the sake of Your Majesty. Forget it, some family will tell you in detail later. Let's take this city first!"
Guan Yu was snatched by Xu Chu, and his face was a little uneasy. However, seeing the other party's violent swordsmanship, although he was not in the same way as him, the strength of the two would not be much different. Guan Yu is also a master on the same level as him.
So Guan Yu suppressed his displeasure and turned around to kill the enemy. He thought to himself: This Xu Laohu, as His Majesty said, can compete with a certain level! But it is a bit strange that he appears here!
With doubts, Guan Yu led his subordinates to kill Yu Fu...
Yu Fu's guard general Zhao Miao was cut off by Xu Chu's sword, and Yu Fu lost his backbone. Moreover, Yu Fu's defenders had been plotted against by Guan Yu, Deng Zhi and others before. Now, not only are there very few left, but they are already scared. In addition, Guan Yu and Xu Chu's bravery, no one dared to compete with them.
Therefore, this battle was declared over before it took long.
Yu Fu recovered, Guan Yu lost at least nearly a thousand soldiers. If Xu Chu had not appeared, the loss would have been greater, and Yu Fu could not have taken it down. Speaking of which, Xu Chu could account for at least half of the credit for recovering Yu Fu, because he appeared too promptly.
In Yufu County Government, Xu Chu washed away the blood from his body and came to the hall to say goodbye to Guan Yu and others.
Guan Yu waved his left and right, leaving only Deng Zhi and Luo Yuanyu in the hall, and then asked Xu Chu, "Brother Xu, please speak out!"
When Xu Chu saw this posture, he sighed: "General Guan, don't know where Your Majesty is now?"
After hearing this, Guan Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't know why Brother Xu asked about His Majesty's whereabouts, you need to know..."
Xu Chu knew that Guan Yu didn't believe him, so he took out the token that Liu Xie had given him, a jade pendant. But as a result, Guan Yu was still confused when he saw the jade pendant, because in order to protect Lu Su and Xu Chu, Liu Xie had never told anyone else about any problems related to Xu Chu and Lu Su.
It wasn't Fa Zheng and the others, and they didn't know that Xu Chu was just Liu Xie's confidant.
Xu Chu grinned and said, "It's important, and Xu is not convenient for him to stay here for a long time. Since the general has arrived at Yufu, I believe that Your Majesty should have arrived in Qunin as well. The military advisor of Yilu estimated that Your Majesty should have already headed towards Linjiang at this time, and may have even taken down Linjiang County. Then, Xu will say goodbye first!"
Guan Yu's slutty eyebrows frowned. In fact, he was secretly yelling in his heart that "awesome". Who is this military advisor Lu? He could see His Majesty's deployment so thoroughly? But seeing Xu Chu is so powerful, what if he deliberately said this and wanted to harm His Majesty?
So Guan Yu stood up and said, "Brother Xu, although you helped Guan before, and Guan had no reason to doubt you, it was related to Your Majesty's safety. Guan had to keep Brother Xu here for the time being and send someone to ask Your Majesty!"
When Xu Chu heard this, he was shocked. He finally laughed and said, "Can you stop someone from leaving?"
"Can you stop it or not, you will know it after a try!" Guan Yu stood up and picked up the Qinglongyue Yanshao, and was about to fight Xu Chu for three hundred rounds.
Deng Zhi and Luo Yuan looked at each other, but Deng Zhi and Luo Yuan could not see them fighting, so Deng Zhi stood up and bowed to Guan Yu, saying, "General Guan, please allow Xu Zhi to ask this Xu Zhuangshi first!"
Guan Yu paused and said, "Ask!"
Deng Zhi looked at Xu Chu, bowed again, and said, "Sir Xu, is that OK?"
Xu Chu snorted: "It depends on what the question is. If it is a confidential question, some family will not answer it!"
Deng Zhi shook his head and said, "It's not a confidential question, I just want to ask Xu Zhuangshi, what's the matter with Your Majesty?"
"Isn't this a secret?" Xu Chu's face turned straight and said, "Well! Since Your Majesty can send three people to recover Yu Fu, he must have trusted them more than three people, and Xu did not go around with you. Xu followed His Majesty when His Majesty returned east, but because of some things, he stayed with the Lu Military Advisor in Hanzhong, so that when His Majesty was in power to the north, he would help His Majesty take Hanzhong straight..."
Guan Yu frowned and said, "This, how can Guan believe your one-sided words?"
"You blushing guy, why are you so suspicious?" Xu Chu couldn't help but glared, pointing at the jade pendant in his hand and said, "Do you know what this is? This is your Majesty's close body. You blushing guy is so frightened and you can't tell. You are so embarrassed to doubt Xu. It's really outrageous! If you don't believe it, you can go with me to meet Your Majesty!"
Guan Yu stroked his long beard, slept with his eyebrows, and nodded, "Kuang is just trying to do this!"
Deng Zhi was stunned, glanced at Guan Yu with a serious face, and thought to himself: Could it be that this red-faced guy doesn't want to stay with Yu Fu at all, but wants to find an excuse to return to His Majesty? This... is too sarcastic!
Before Deng Zhi could come back to his senses, Guan Yu said, "Military Deng, General Luo, here we are left to the two of you to guard! The troops under Guan also stayed to help the two of you. Guan only brought thirty personal guards and this Xu Zhuangshi..."
"General Guan, you...you can't do this!" Deng Zhi smiled bitterly, "Yu Fu is a major area, and its geographical location is crucial. It is a key place where Jingzhou goes from the river to Shu's throat. It is just a need for a general who is as careful and brave as the general. How can he be so lightly?"
Guan Yu stroked his long beard and said seriously: "Military Deng's words are bad! With the ability of the military advisor and General Luo, it is easy to defend this fish reef. Moreover, in Guan's opinion, compared with this fish reef, the safety of Your Majesty is really insignificant! How could Guan lose the big one because of the small?"
Deng Zhi was confused and couldn't figure out what Guan Yu really thought, so he could only watch Guan Yu and Xu Chu leave.
Luo Yuan looked at Deng Zhi with a wry smile and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Military advisor, what should I do next?"
Deng Zhi gritted his teeth and said, "This General Guan is so irresponsible! But even if there is no General Guan, we have to look forward to this place for His Majesty. Your Majesty trusts us and give me a chance. We must seize it. General Luo, guarding this place and waiting for the coming of the guardian here will be a great achievement!"
"Where are those noble families?"
"Kill!" Deng Zhi's eyes showed a trace of evil spirit, and he said, "Your Majesty wants to do but cannot do things, let's do it for him! I believe Your Majesty will see our loyalty! What's more, this kind of military land without the existence of a noble family can make people feel at ease!"
"Here!"
