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

The news of the Maicheng riot soon reached Sun Quan's ears. Just as expected, although the riot was quickly quelled, Guan Yu was very angry and he was ready to lead dozens of his personal guards to check it out.

Upon hearing the news, Sun Quan immediately ordered Zhu Ran and Pan Zhang to ambush.

If Guan Yu had led a large army to Maicheng, Sun Quan would have had no chance at all. Unfortunately, he was too proud and he would eventually pay the price for his pride.

Sun Quan was quite excited these two days, and even had an unconcealable joy on his face.

As long as Guan Yu can be killed, all problems will be solved.

But Sun Quan's joy did not last long. On a dark night, the door of the mansion was violently pushed open by soldiers.

When Sun Quan heard the noise, he came out of his study to check, only to find that the courtyard was already full of soldiers.

"Who are you? How dare you break into my house so late at night?"

A cold and arrogant figure walked out from the fire.

"Sun Quan, you little bastard, do you know me, Guan Yu?"

Guan Yu? Sun Quan was panicked, but his face remained calm.

Most of the people dispatched this time are death warriors. Even if they cannot kill Guan Yu, they will definitely not reveal their whereabouts.

"What is General Guan's intention in bringing his soldiers to my house late at night?

Although I was defeated, I will not allow the general to bully me.

If the general takes his men away quickly, I can forgive him for what he did. Otherwise, I will tell Uncle Liu about the general's rude behavior and let him handle the matter with justice!"

Guan Yu snorted coldly.

"What a sharp tongue! The Emperor's uncle treated you with great courtesy that day and asked Zhu Ran and Pan Zhang to protect your safety. Now my soldiers have come to your house, but why haven't they come out to protect you?"

"They are out on important business and are not in the mansion."

Guan Yu let out a long laugh, which was extremely loud in the dark night, as if it could pierce the sky.

The laughter stopped abruptly, and two bloody heads were thrown at Sun Quan's feet by the soldiers.

Sun Quan looked carefully. If it wasn’t Zhu Ran or Pan Zhang, then who else could it be?

"Guan Yu, you..."

A flash of light passed by, and a thin line appeared on Sun Quan's neck. The line gradually grew larger, and then blood spurted out.

Sun Quan wanted to reach out to support his neck, but found that his arms were like stones and he could not lift them.

Sun Quan fell to the ground uncontrollably, his eyes became dazed, and he gradually lost his breath.

"Take everyone in the mansion back and wait for punishment."

As Guan Yu's order sounded again, the soldiers began to arrest people in the mansion in an orderly manner.

At this time, in Sun Quan's study, Guo Jia was sitting upright on the couch, holding the imperial edict in his hand with a playful expression on his face.

He slowly placed the imperial edict into the brazier. Soon smoke rose and the fire suddenly started.

Reflected on Guo Jia's somewhat pale face, it looked extremely gloomy.

"Sun Quan, don't blame me for my ruthless tactics. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too ambitious. If you don't die, you will be a hidden danger to the Han Dynasty and to Emperor Liu.

I have worked so hard with Uncle Liu to get to where we are now, and I will never allow anyone to destroy it..."

……

……

The news of Sun Quan's death spread quickly, but since Guo Jia had already made all the preparations, it did not cause any unrest.

Uncle Liu treated Sun Quan with great kindness, but not only did he not think of repaying the kindness, he even wanted to ambush Guan Yu. Everyone sneered at this behavior.

Cao Cao felt sad after hearing the news.

"All the princes back then were eliminated one by one by Uncle Liu. If we lose this time, my fate will not be much better than Sun Quan's."

"My lord, there is no need to do this. Yizhou is a natural barrier that is as solid as a rock. Although Liu Huangshu has a great momentum, he has been attacking for two consecutive months without any success. This attack will not last long. If my prediction is correct, Liu Huangshu will retreat after a while."

While the two were talking, a soldier came hurriedly to report.

"My lord, something terrible has happened. Fucheng has been lost."

"What? How is this possible? Fucheng had Jiange before, and now Jiange is as solid as a rock, how could Fucheng be lost?"

"A few nights ago, Liu Huangshu's army suddenly appeared under Fucheng and launched a surprise attack on Fucheng. The defenders were caught off guard, and after just one hour, the army entered Fucheng."

Xi Zhicai's face was pale, and he had lost his usual calmness.

"Is Liu Huangshu a human or a demon? How could he cross Jiange and lead his soldiers to Fucheng?"

Cao Cao had a splitting headache. It was obvious that he was hit hard by the news.

Xi Zhicai quickly walked to the sand table, looked at it for a long time, and finally saw a clue.

Could it be that Uncle Liu actually crossed this Gobi Desert and led people to Fucheng from here?

How is this possible? Xi Zhicai had specially explored this route, and it was deserted for hundreds of miles, so it was impossible for anyone to cross it.

But Xi Zhicai looked for a long time and found this to be the only possibility. The other routes could not have reached the city of Fucheng silently.

Cao Cao calmed down, came to the sand table, and slowly asked: "After they occupied Fucheng, are they going to attack Mianzhu and then take Chengdu?"

A gleam of light flashed in Xi Zhicai's eyes.

"If this is true, Yizhou will have nothing to worry about!"

"What do you mean by that, Zhicai?"

"This army is alone and deep in the enemy's territory. The soldiers are exhausted. If you dare them to attack Mianzhu, we can mobilize our forces and encircle and annihilate them at the foot of Mianzhu City."

When Cao Cao heard this, he instantly understood Xi Zhicai's intention.

"Zhicai's words make sense. I will immediately transfer Zilian to lead the troops to Mianzhou and let him defend Mianzhou seriously."

Xi Zhicai stared at the sand table for a long time, then shook his head and said, "My lord, this is absolutely not possible. Not only can we not send troops to Mianyang, but we should order Wen Qian to relax the defense."

"Relax your defense?" Cao Cao was puzzled. "What does Zhicai mean by this?"

“Although this isolated army unexpectedly occupied Fucheng, they are an isolated army after all. As long as we deal with it properly, they will not pose too much threat to us.

My Lord, please see, if they do not take advantage of the situation to attack Mianzhu, but use Fucheng as a base to attack Jiange, it will be really dangerous. "

Cao Cao was in a cold sweat after hearing this. If this was true, Jiange would surely be breached. When the time came, the internal and external forces would work together to breach Jiange, and Yizhou would be defenseless. Yizhou was in danger!

"Zhicai, is there any chance of turning this around?"

Xi Zhicai was silent for a moment, then murmured, "Now I just hope that the leader of the army will attack Mianzhu out of greed for military merit. There is no other way."

Everyone originally thought that everything would go smoothly as Xi Zhicai had imagined, but the reality was beyond everyone's expectations.

Zhao Yun closely followed the orders given by Uncle Liu. After successfully capturing Fucheng, he did not even stop for a moment to rest and led his large army straight to Jiange without hesitation.
