The Rebirth of Lu Bu in the Legend of the Heroes of the Later Han Dynasty

Cao Cao did not take Guan Yu with him during this western expedition. The reason was that Manchong, the captain of the school affairs office, captured a Xizuo from Jingzhou before the expedition. A secret letter from Liu Bei to Guan Yu was found on Xizuo's body. The content of the letter was: Guan Yu is asked to rescue Tian Xia who is trapped in Chang'an and come to Jingzhou to meet him.

Cao Cao was a suspicious person. Although Guan Yu surrendered him and made great contributions in the Battle of Baima, he refused to be summoned and stayed in Xuchang since he became the king of Wei.

Cao Cao looked around at the generals around him and found that only Xiahou Dun had the ability to suppress Guan Yu, so he left Guan Yu in Xuchang to assist Xiahou Dun in governing Yanzhou.

On this day, Guan Yu was bored at home, so he went out hunting. As expected of a horse archer, Guan Yu had killed a lot of prey in a short time. His son Guan Ping couldn't help but praise him for his courage as before.

Guan Yu just stroked his long beard and said, "I'm afraid that King Wei will never be used as a father in the future."

Guan Ping said, "My father's bravery is unparalleled in the world. Since there is no future with Cao Cao, why don't we join my uncle?"

Guan Yu said, "It has been many years since I separated from my eldest brother, and there is no news yet. I once heard that my eldest brother went to Hebei to surrender to Yuan Shao, but the Yuan family regime has been destroyed. Now Hebei has fallen into the hands of Lu Bu. He has a feud with our brother. I'm afraid he will not I will let brother go."

Guan Ping said, "My uncle is in Jingzhou now. He sent an envoy to see my father and asked for a chance to meet him."

After hearing this, Guan Yu hurriedly said, "Where is my brother's envoy? Call him quickly."

Guan Ping said, "Xuchang is from Xiahou Dun. My son hid him in his mansion and worked as a cook. At three o'clock tonight, my son brought him to see his father."

Guan Yu nodded. He had studied the Spring and Autumn Period since he was a child and knew the dilemma between loyalty and righteousness. Since he was loyal to the Han Emperor in his heart, he had to leave the Cao Wei camp as soon as possible, otherwise he would become a traitor and traitor in the future. It was a good idea to serve Liu Bei again. Continuing the brotherhood and showing his loyalty to the big man, he killed two birds with one stone.

Night fell soon, and Guan Yu met with Sun Qian, the envoy from Jingzhou. When he saw Liu Bei's handwritten letter, Guan Yu burst into tears. The words in the letter were sincere, and he no longer thought about the reunion of his brothers every day.

Guan Yu made up his mind and called Guan Ping, "You quickly gather your old Xuzhou troops, and I will go to the prison to rescue your third uncle. At the beginning of the day, we will meet at the south gate of Xuchang and go to Jingzhou together."

Guan Ping took the order and left.

Guan Yu sealed all the gold and silver that Cao Cao had given him in the box, and also put the big seal of Han Shouting Marquis in the box and hung it high to express his determination to make a clean break with Cao Wei from now on.

After doing all this, Guan Yu changed into armor and went to Xuchang Prison. How could a dozen jailers be Guan Erye's opponents? They were eliminated by Guan Yu in just a few seconds.

Guan Yu opened the cell door and saw Zhang Fei chained up. He cut off the chain with his sword, picked up Zhang Fei on his back and ran out.

Zhang Fei said feebly, "Bearded thief, didn't you surrender to Cao Cao and enjoy the glory and wealth? Why did you save me today?"

Guan Yu explained, "Third brother, Yun Chang has not dared to forget the oath of the Taoyuan for a day. Now that he has learned that his eldest brother is in Jingzhou, he rescued the third brother and went to see him together to renew the oath of the Taoyuan."

Hearing Guan Yu's words, Zhang Fei cried, "Second brother, I wrongly blamed you. You and I worked together for the eldest brother and tore Cao Cao and Lu Bu into pieces."

Everything went smoothly. Guan Ping had already led Xuzhou veterans to subdue the city gate guard. The group mounted their horses and left the city.

It was already noon on the second day when Xiahou Dun learned about Guan Yu's prison robbery and escape from Xuchang. Since he was no longer under Cao Cao's supervision, he and his subordinates drank heavily every night. He lost an eye and could no longer go to the battlefield. He could only be a left-behind general. This made him feel aggrieved, so he resorted to drinking to get drunk.

After Xiahou Dun sobered up, he immediately ordered a thousand cavalry and followed him out of the city to pursue Guan Yu.

At this time, Guan Yu did not leave with his family members as recorded in later books. The hundreds of people accompanying him were all riding horses, galloping all the way. In addition, they had already left for three hours, and no matter how fast the horse was, they could not catch up.

After two days of traveling, Guan Yu and his party finally arrived in Jiangxia. The moment they saw Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei immediately knelt down, and Liu Bei also knelt down. The three of them hugged each other tightly and cried bitterly. After these years of separation, they have experienced too many things and too many hardships, and finally they are waiting for the day to meet again.

The young master Liu Qi hosted a banquet for Guan Yu and his party. At this time, in addition to Liu Bei and Liu Feng, there were three more powerful generals: Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Guan Ping. Share confidence.

During the banquet, Liu Bei was also making his own little calculations. Jingzhou has a vast territory and abundant troops and food. It is the best place for him to make a comeback. It is a hundred times better than Xuzhou in the past. As long as he concentrates on development, within ten years, Then you can compete with Cao Cao and Lu Bu for the world.
