I was the emperor in the Three Kingdoms

Ma Chao had long distrusted Han Sui.

Especially since he was the first to retreat, Ma Chao's wariness towards Han Sui had already increased tenfold, and now he didn't even want to talk to Han Sui.

"I get it, brother."Ma Dai finally nodded and agreed to lead his troops back to defend Qixian County. He didn't want to confront Liu Zhe's people here.

Then Ma Dai left to prepare the troops, horses and food for returning to Qixian County.

However, what Ma Chao and Ma Dai didn't know was , ten hours before his departure, Han Sui also sent out his confidants, two of the eight generals, Liang Xing and Yang Qiu. Han Sui sent them 5,000 troops to return to Qixian.

Han Sui He said to the two of them:"We must hold Qixian County in our hands. Once Ma Chao attacks, we must stop him.""

"Don't worry, my lord, the general will take your orders."Liang Xing and Yang Qiu took the order.

What Ma Chao and Han Sui didn't know was that one day after Ma Dai set off, Guan Yu also sent Xu Huang.

Compared with Han Sui and Ma Chao, Guan Yu was much more generous and directly let Xu Huang led an army of 10,000 people and set out with the same goal of Qixian.

The three parties had the same goal of Qixian, but their goals were different. Ma Chao's purpose was to consolidate the defense of Qixian, while Han Sui's purpose was to capture Qixian. Monopolizing Qixian County and preparing to trap Ma Chao. Guan Yu's goal was also to occupy Qixian County and block Han Sui and Ma Chao's way home.

As a result, Qixian County, which was less than 300 miles away from the three parties, became the main target of the three parties. Everyone sent out He gathered his own team and began to fight around Qixian...

While Guan Yu was fighting with Ma Chao and Han Sui, Liu Zhe had already led his army into Hedong and would reach Pubanjin in a few days.

Liu Zhe looked at the map he drew. Touching his chin, he was thinking.

Although Guan Yu's plan was not told to Liu Zhe, Liu Zhe could more or less guess what Guan Yu wanted to do. Less than three hundred miles behind Yunyang is Qixian County.

The location of Qixian County is very important, as Ma Chaohan The only way for Sui and others to return home, Liu Zhe believed that Guan Yu's goal was Qixian. Once Qixian was captured and the road back was cut off, Ma Chao, Han Sui and others would have to cross the Jingshui River and retreat from Fufeng County. Go back.

In this case, not only is it a long way to go back from Fufeng County, but Fufeng County is in the hands of Cao Ren. Even if Cao Ren and Ma Chao and Han Sui form an alliance, Cao Cao will kill them both. Ma Chao, Han Sui and Liu Zhe , it is clear at a glance who is strong and who is weak.

Liu Zhe believes that if he were Cao Ren and Ma Chao and Han Sui were cut off, he would immediately strengthen the defense of Fufeng County, and then look for opportunities to eliminate Han Sui and Ma Chao. Finally, they stopped fighting with Guan Yu.

Liu Zhe could see that, and Guo Jia and Jia Xu could also naturally see what Guan Yu wanted to do.

Guo Jia smiled and said:"Yun Chang, your fighting spirit is very high."

Liu Zhe and Jia Xu naturally understood what Guo Jia meant.

After the Yuan Shao coalition was eliminated, Guan Yu was ordered to lead his troops to sneak attack Feng Yijun. After Dong Zhuo's death, Guan Yu took advantage of Niu Fu's lack of precautions and crossed the river to sneak attack Feng Yijun successfully. Then Having defended until now, it can be said that Guan Yu was suppressed.

In the north of Bingzhou, Taishi Ci and Huang Zhong often sent troops to attack the stubborn foreigners. In the east, Chen Gong led Yan Liang and Wenchou to attack the city and plunder the territory.

And Guan Yu He stayed in Feng Yi County for several years, and during these years he continued to fight against petty thieves. This naturally made the proud Guan Yu very unhappy. In terms of seniority, he was the oldest general under Liu Zhe except Dian Wei. However, he was reduced to beating up petty thieves. Thief, he felt embarrassed even if he said it.

But because of Liu Zhe's strategy, no matter how unhappy Guan Yu was, he had to endure it and honestly guard Feng Yi County, the bridgehead into Yongzhou, for Liu Zhe.

So when Liu Zhe decided After capturing Yongzhou and Liangzhou and cutting off Cao Cao's hand in the northwest, one can imagine how excited Guan Yu was, who had already been suppressed for a long time. So, he couldn't wait to send troops.

Although Guan Yu sent troops to deal with Han Sui and Ma Chao, it was a bit too aggressive. However, Liu Zhe understood Guan Yu's urgency to make achievements after staying in Feng Yi County for several years, so he did not care about Guan Yu's rapid progress.

"After staying in Feng Yi County for a few years, he would no longer be Yunchang if his fighting spirit was not high."Liu Zhe chuckled and said.

Guan Yu is now like a tiger coming out of the gate, very hungry. Unfortunately, Ma Chao and Han Sui are Guan Yu's prey. If they want to defeat Guan Yu, they must have ten times the strength. There is no hope at all

"However, Niyang only has 10,000 troops defending it. Will it be dangerous? I'm afraid Cao Ren will make a sneak attack."Jia Xu pointed at Niyang and said.

Qixian is Ma Chao and Han Sui's way home. Niyang is also Guan Yu's way home. Once attacked, Guan Yu will be surrounded.

Liu Zhe's two hundred thousand The army sets out. Unless Cao Cao is blind, it is impossible not to receive the news. Cao Cao is not a fool either. He does not believe that Liu Zhe brought an army of 200,000 to Feng Yi County just for a trip, let alone that the army of 200,000 is just to deal with Ma Chao and Han Sui.

It is certain that Cao Cao has guessed Liu Zhe's goal.

Therefore, Jia Xu is a little worried that Cao Cao will strike first and send troops first to capture Niyang, block Guan Yu's army, and then use all his strength to attack Linjin. As long as After Linjin is captured, Feng Yi County will be considered to have fallen.

By then, as long as they defend the Pubanjin Ferry, Liu Zhe's 200,000 troops can be blocked on the other side of the Yellow River.
