Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Yecheng, prison.

Tian Feng sat on the dry grass, his eyes were empty and his face was decadent.

On a piece of open space in front of him, crisscrossing lines were densely packed and looked extremely messy.

Staying in the filthy prison for a long time made Tian Feng a little dazed.

"Wuchao, Wuchao! Hundreds of thousands of loads of food and fodder were destroyed in an instant. Xu You is a corrupt scholar. He deserves to be killed. He deserves to be killed."

During this period, someone would bring news from the front line to Tian Feng every now and then.

Of course, the timeliness of this kind of news will be much worse.

Tian Feng used the information he had obtained to draw countless lines on the ground in order to deduce the battle situation.

After he got the news that the grain and grass in Wuchao were burned today, Tian Feng has been sitting here in despair.

The food and supplies were destroyed and defeat was inevitable.

"Defeat, defeat!"

His desperate voice rang out in the prison.

The jailer respected the upright Tian Feng very much. Seeing his situation, he could not help but step forward and persuade him: "Mr. Tian, ​​General Yuan is doomed to fail. This may be a bad thing for others, but it should be a happy thing for you, Mr. Tian. Why are you so sad?"

"I don't know where the joy comes from?"

"General Yuan did not use Lord Tian's strategy, which led to the great defeat at Guandu. When the general returns, he will remember Lord Tian's advice and will understand Lord Tian's painstaking efforts. At that time, General Yuan will definitely go to the prison to fetch Lord Tian."

Tian Feng laughed loudly, and his laughter was somewhat sad.

"If Yuan Shao returns, I will die."

The jailer looked confused and didn't understand.

"Everyone thinks this is a happy event for Lord Tian. Why does Lord Tian say so?"

"My lord, you are generous on the outside but cautious on the inside, and you don't care about loyalty. If you were happy about the victory, you could still pardon me, but now you are ashamed of the defeat, and I have no hope of survival."

The jailer looked incredulous. How could such a thing be possible?

He did the right thing, but not only did he not receive any reward, he was beheaded instead.

A breeze blew by and the jailer felt a chill on his back.

It’s freezing cold, just like the human world!

At this time, two messengers came to Yuan Shao's prison.

"Tian Feng was rebellious and repeatedly damaged the morale of the army. According to the law, he should be executed. The lord is kind and considerate of their past friendship, so he was allowed to commit suicide and keep his body intact."

After saying this, Yuan Shao's sword was sent to the prison.

Tian Feng slowly picked up the sword, his eyes full of grief and anger.

The past scenes, like yesterday, came flooding back to me.

After recalling the past, Tian Feng's eyes became blurred and tears flowed down his face.

"A man born in heaven and earth, but serving his master without knowing him, is a fool! What is the point of dying today?"

Tian Feng drew out his sword, and the sword drew an arc across his neck, just like a meteor across the sky.

When the meteor disappeared, blood began to flow from Tian Feng's neck. He slowly fell to the ground, his eyes full of unwillingness and resentment.

Being loyal but slandered, and trustworthy but suspected, how can you not feel resentful?

……

……

Yuan Shao retreated to Yecheng, and the news of Tian Feng's suicide soon reached Liu Yu's ears.

Liu Yu was not surprised at Tian Feng's death. This man, who was once Yuan Shao's closest comrade-in-arms, eventually died at the hands of Yuan Shao.

The two have very different personalities. One is generous on the outside but cautious on the inside, while the other is strong and dares to speak out. These two absolutely contradictory personalities are bound to conflict after the honeymoon period.

Perhaps the outcome of today was foreshadowed from the very beginning of our meeting.

Tian Feng is a loyal minister, and loyal ministers need a benevolent monarch to have room to survive.

Just like the famous minister Wei Zheng in later generations, he was famous for his outspokenness, courage and unyielding integrity. The most important reason for his success was that he met the wise ruler Li Shimin. If he had been a minister during the reign of Emperor Yang of Sui, and dared to appear in the court in this manner, it is estimated that within a few times, his grave would have started to grow grass.

Taking advantage of this great victory, Liu Yu led his troops to capture Yanjin.

To Liu Yu's surprise, Liyang City did not relax because of Yuan Shao's retreat. After Huang Zhong led his troops to attack several times, he failed to achieve any success and had to retreat to the south bank.

When Liu Yu led his men to the south bank, they looked at the towering city walls of Liyang in silence.

Guan Yu bowed and said, "Uncle Liu, I am willing to lead 10,000 soldiers to attack Liyang. Within two days, I will capture the city. If I fail, I will be punished by military law."

Seeing Guan Yu speaking so easily, Huang Zhong showed a trace of guilt on his face.

"My Lord, please let me lead the troops once more. If I cannot win, I am willing to bear the consequences of military punishment."

"Han Sheng, Guan was the one who asked for the order first, so Han Sheng doesn't need to argue. Besides, you have been attacking for several days and have not been able to break the city. Do you think you can break the city if I give you another chance?"

There was a strong sense of doubt in Guan Yu's tone, and he looked down on Huang Zhong.

He thought that Huang Zhong was just old enough and might have fought in a few battles, but when it came to the ability to lead troops in attacking battles, he was no match for himself.

Huang Zhong's face turned slightly red, feeling a little embarrassed. Although Guan Yu was a little arrogant, what he said was indeed the truth.

Guan Yu saw that Huang Zhong did not speak again, and was about to speak again, but he heard Liu Yu slowly say: "Liyang's walls are strong and the defenders are numerous. It is not a wise choice to attack by force. Han Sheng, you send a cavalry to harass their food supplies. In less than three days, the defenders of Liyang will surely flee."

Liu Yu's words left everyone confused. Although harassing the grain route was a common tactic, this method was not effective quickly and would often lead to ambushes.

But from what Liu Yu said, the city of Liyang, which had been attacked for a long time and had been defended, could be defeated without a fight in just three days.

Guan Yu was a little confused and asked, "Uncle, I know a lot about military affairs, but I never thought that attacking the enemy's food supplies would cause them to retreat so quickly?"

"Liyang is different from other cities." Liu Yu said calmly, "Liyang is an important city on the frontier. The food reserves were originally enough to support at least one month.

But after the Battle of Guandu, a large number of defeated soldiers fled to Liyang. Although they were able to strengthen Liyang's defense, they also compressed Liyang's living space.

I estimate that the food and grass in Liyang City will hardly last for ten days. We only need to cut off the food supply, and the people in the city will panic. Once this happens, they will flee in order to survive."

After listening to Liu Yu's analysis, everyone finally reacted.

Huang Zhong personally led 5,000 cavalrymen to harass Liyang continuously. The development of the situation was just as Liu Yu had expected. The defenders of Liyang City finally could not sit still after holding out for the second day.

Panic spread quickly throughout Liyang City like a plague.

On the third day, a considerable conflict broke out in Liyang City. After the conflict, the defenders in the city began to open the city gates and flee in all directions.

The cavalry led by Huang Zhong was like silence, constantly harvesting heads behind them.

In a short period of time, countless heads were beheaded and captured.

When Huang Zhong came back, he bowed to Liu Yu hastily.

"My lord, you are so wise, you are truly a god!"
