My father-in-law Guan Yu, I persuaded Liu Bei to launch a surprise attack on Xiangyang at the beginn

Chapter 47: No one is better than me at kneeling down to Guan Yu!

Liu Jun’s night attack?

Still tens of thousands of people?
Tens of thousands of people, that is Liu Bei's main force.

But didn’t Liu Bei’s main force go north along the Yu River to launch a surprise attack on the Chaoyang grain camp?
How could he suddenly appear in Deng County for no apparent reason and attack the granary guarding Deng County at night?

Yu Jin was confused.

His alcohol-filled brain worked desperately, but he couldn't figure out the reason.

"General, the enemy has reached the camp wall and is about to break in!"

"General, a flag with the word 'guan' (pass) has appeared outside the camp gate. The enemy is heading towards our camp!"

"General, enemy troops have appeared in the east."

Cries of emergency came pouring in like snowflakes.

Yu Jin shuddered and finally woke up completely. He struggled to stand up again.

"Pass the order down, all troops, rush to the camp wall and defend it to the death. Do not let the enemy in!"

"Quickly send someone to the main camp of Fancheng to ask General Cao Zixiao for help!"

"Hurry, hurry up——"

Yu Jin shouted loudly in a trembling voice while, with the help of his personal guards, he walked out of the tent, mounted his horse, and hurried to the camp wall.

The camp was in chaos.

The Cao soldiers were awakened from their sleep and rushed to the camp wall in a panic under the scolding of the generals, without even having time to put on their clothes and armor.

When Yu Jin arrived at the camp gate, what he saw made him gasp.

Countless torches illuminated the camp clearly inside and outside.

Outside the camp wall, Liu's soldiers were densely packed, like soldiers from hell rushing out, surging up like a tide.

They brandished their ring-handled swords wildly, chopping off the heavy deer antlers, and rushed to the camp wall, hacking and pushing like crazy.

The rain of arrows overhead was like meteors in the sky, overwhelming the sky and pinning down Cao's soldiers who had hurried over to the ground in large numbers.

The Han army's offensive was so fierce and the troops were so dense that they must have had at least 30,000 men!
The flag symbolizing Liu Bei's general was flying brightly in the firelight, inspiring Liu's soldiers to attack recklessly.

"Thirty thousand soldiers? Liu Bei leading the army personally?"

"What exactly is going on?"

"Liu Bei fell for Cheng Zhongde's trick and should have led these 30,000 troops to attack Chaoyang. Why did he suddenly attack Deng County?"

"Could it be that…"

Yu Jin's body suddenly trembled, and a chilling thought flashed through his mind:

Make a sound in the east and attack in the west!

"Could it be that Liu Bei saw through Cheng Zhongde's plan, and that the big-eared thief took advantage of it, setting an ambush while our main force was heading north to Chaoyang, and then taking advantage of the opportunity to attack the Dengxian granary by making a feint to the east and attacking from the west?"

Yu Jin suddenly woke up and broke out in a cold sweat.

Let’s not worry about how ingenious and cunning Cheng Yu’s plan was, and who under Liu Bei had the ability to see through it.

The fatal thing was that Liu Bei's 30,000-strong army caught him off guard.

He only had 10,000 soldiers and horses, and was fighting hastily. Looking at the current situation, it seemed that he was about to be unable to resist.

If the Deng County grain camp was lost, hundreds of thousands of hu of grain and grass, nearly 40% of the military rations would be burned by Liu Bei!
How could he have the nerve to see Cao Cao again?

"Pass on my orders!"

"Defend the camp walls to the death! Anyone who retreats even a single step will be killed immediately!"

Yu Jin rushed to the camp wall on his horse, waving his spear and shouting almost hysterically.

He had no way to retreat and could only try his best to hold on and wait for help.

He has been in the army for decades and has encountered such critical situations more than once, but he has been able to escape danger every time.

But this time it's different.

After being captured and surrendered in the Battle of Han River, his prestige in the hearts of Cao's soldiers was completely destroyed.

Since he took over the granary, he has been self-destructive and drunk all day long. He neither patrols the camp nor summons the soldiers to give lectures. Most of the soldiers in the camp have never even seen him.

In this situation, who in the camp, from the officers to the soldiers, would obey him?
Naturally, he was unable to rely on his original prestige to stabilize people's hearts and inspire the soldiers to fight to the death.

Faced with the fierce attack of Liu's army, which was three times larger than theirs, Cao's soldiers were demoralized and fled after just a little resistance.

"General, the enemy has breached the east wing of the camp!"

"General, the enemy troops from the left camp are charging in!"

"General..."

A galloping horseman came over, bringing a piece of bad news to Yu Jin's heart. After less than half an hour of resistance, the 10,000-strong Cao army had collapsed.

"General Yu, the situation is hopeless. We can't wait for General Cao's reinforcements. Let's abandon the camp and retreat!"

The deputy general beside him tried to persuade him in a tearful voice.

Yu Jin's face was ashen, his body was stiff on his horse, and his eyes were filled with grief and anger.

"First we lost our navy, then we lost our food camp. How can I face the Prime Minister?"

"Liu Bei, Guan Yu, I never thought that I, Yu Jin, would be forced into such a desperate situation because of you two brothers~~"

Yu Jin gritted his teeth and hesitated to make a decision.

"Crack!"

There was a loud crashing sound.

The camp gate was finally knocked down by Liu's soldiers.

A bearded general, holding a Qinglong sword in his hand and riding a Red Hare, broke into the room first like a god descending from heaven.

A Qinglong sword swept out, and several Cao soldiers who retreated in panic had their heads chopped off.

"Guan...Guan Yu?"

Yu Jin, who was a few steps away, let out a shuddering cry, and the grief and anger in his eyes instantly turned into fear.

Liu's soldiers poured in from the camp gate like a tide.

One after another, the ring-handled swords ruthlessly slashed at the terrified and retreating Cao army.

Guan Yu glanced over and locked onto the familiar face.

"The ban?"

A look of surprise flashed in Guan Yu's eyes.

He obviously did not expect that Yu Jin, whom they had just released, was transferred by Cao Cao to guard the Deng County granary.

It's really fate...

Guan Yu raised a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth, then he kicked the horse's belly, spurred the horse and dragged his sword towards Yu Jin to kill him.

The Cao soldiers who blocked the way were all knocked to the ground like ants.

Yu Jin's left and right deputy generals and personal guards were all frightened by Guan Yu's might and turned around and fled in all directions.

It was not until Guan Yu rushed five steps closer that Yu Jin shuddered, suddenly came to his senses, turned his horse around and tried to escape.

It's too late.

The Red Hare galloped as fast as the wind. Before Yu Jin could turn around, Guan Yu was already standing in front of his horse like an iron tower.

"Can you leave?"

A contemptuous and domineering shout was heard, and the Qinglong Sword rolled up a cloud of blood and dust in the air, slashing down from the sky with the force of the sky collapsing and the earth splitting.

There is no way to avoid it!

In desperation, Yu Jin could only rely on his military instincts, wielding his spear and trying with all his might to resist.

just.

Guan Yu took advantage of the speed of his Red Hare and the sword came too fast.

Before Yu Jin could even unleash his spear, the Qinglong sword had already slashed down with lightning speed.

"Crack!"

Yu Jin's left hand holding the gun, along with the gun in his hand, was cut off immediately.

A scream was heard, and a bleeding body flew into the air and fell heavily to the ground.

Yu Jin fell to the ground, enduring the pain of a broken wrist, supporting himself with one arm, and struggling to get up.

Just as he struggled to stand up, Guan Yu's iron tower-like body had already cast a shadow over him.

The blood-stained Qinglong sword was placed coldly on his neck.

As long as Guan Yu was willing, he could take his head with just a light cut.

Yu Jin felt a chill in his heart, and the fear of death instantly overshadowed the pain of his broken wrist.

"Boom!"

Not a trace of hesitation.

Yu Jin's knees had already touched the ground.

He knelt at Guan Yu's feet again.
