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

Chapter 61 Guan Yu Captures Yan Liang

For the next two days, Liu Yu lived in Pingyuan County.

Wang Yue's eyes narrowed again, and he drank from his wine gourd all day long.

After the last banquet, Guan and Zhang had seen his swordsmanship, so they naturally put away their contempt.

Guan and Zhang gathered their troops and collected food, and were very busy.

Zhang Fei finally couldn't suppress his curiosity, so he took some time out from his busy schedule to have a competition with Chen Dao. No one knows the result of the competition. All we know is that Zhang Fei told everyone he met that Chen Dao was a real hero with great martial arts skills.

After Liu Bei sorted out the money and grain account books and various materials, he handed them all to the county magistrate. He also wrote a letter of resignation and prepared to leave with Liu Yu.

As soon as he walked out of the county government office, someone leaked the news and a group of elders came to see Liu Bei off.

An old man spoke earnestly and in a sad tone, and he even burst into tears at the end.

Liu Bei spoke to everyone in a gentle manner for a long time before leaving Pingyuan County amidst everyone's reluctant gazes.

When Liu Yu saw this scene, he couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart. Liu Bei was known for his benevolence, and today he saw that his reputation was well-deserved.

Although Pingyuan County was only 200 miles away from Yuan Shao's seat in Nanpi, two thousand people were brought out from Pingyuan County, most of whom were infantrymen, and their speed was naturally not as fast as the cavalry led by Liu Yu before. They marched 60 miles a day.

After three or four days, we finally entered Nanpi. After another half day, we saw an ancient city in the distance, which was Nanpi City.

Liu Bei smiled and introduced to Liu Yu: "My dear brother, Nanpi is also an ancient city. Jiang Taigong once fished here. Duke Huan of Qi came here to rescue Yan and fight against Shanrong in the north. He built a city to make leather and called it Picheng. Because there is a "Beipi Pavilion" in Zhangwu to the north of it, this city is called "Nanpi".

Liu Yu naturally didn't know the origin of Nanpi, but he had been observing it since he left Pingyuan County. He found that although this place was not as prosperous as Pingyuan County, it was much better than when he had just left Luoyang.

There were few large-scale wars here, the population was dense, and the people were tough. It was a good place to live, no wonder the great magician had established his imperial career in this land in just a few years.

Yuan Shao also grew and prospered on this land and became one of the most powerful princes in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

As the group approached Nanpi City, a group of cavalrymen rushed out of the city. The leader was wearing armor, with a sword hanging at his waist and holding a long knife. His beard was as dense as Zhang Fei's. The general stopped his horse a few steps away, and the sound was like thunder.

"Who are you? Why are you trespassing in Nanpi? Tell me your name. I, Yan Liang, will not kill nameless soldiers."

Liu Yu looked at the mighty general and introduced himself. He then realized that he was Yan Liang, one of the Four Pillars of Hebei. When he saw Yan Liang, he couldn't help but look at Guan Yu. He saw that Guan Yu had an arrogant look on his face and had already clenched his Green Dragon Crescent Blade in both hands. Liu Yu was afraid that Guan Yu would not be able to resist Yan Liang's shouting and would kill Yan Liang on the spot. He shouted, "Shu Zhi."

Chen Dao rode out on his horse and saluted with his fists clasped.

"General Yan, please don't misunderstand. The emperor's uncles Liu Yu and Liu Yunqi have come from Luoyang to pay a visit to Lord Yuan."

"What emperor or uncle? I have never heard of him. My master does not want to see guests. Please leave immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless with the long sword in my hand."

Chen Dao was slightly angry when he saw this man was so rude, but he knew the purpose of Liu Yu's visit and continued to speak gently.

"General Yan, my master's business card is here. He wants to visit Lord Yuan. Please let him know."

Yan Liang's nose was upturned. Since the last assassination failed, the forces hidden in Luoyang City were eliminated by Dong Zhuo. Yuan Shao guessed that Dong Zhuo had already suspected him. During this period, he strictly ordered all the generals to strengthen the defense to prevent the enemy from attacking.

If it weren't for Yuan Shao's order, with the limited manpower you have, I would have had to go out in person.

"I have made it very clear that my master will not see guests. If you dare to make a noise again, I will kill you on the horse."

Zhang Fei was behind Liu Yu. When he heard Yan Liang's words, he was so angry that he started screaming.

"This guy is so unreasonable, brother, I'm going to take off his head."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bei said, "Third brother, do not act rashly."

Turned to look at Liu Yu.

"Brother, what should we do about this?"

Liu Yu saw that Chen Dao had been talking to Yan Liang for a long time but Yan Liang was still unmoved. It seemed that if he wanted to enter Nanpi City, he had to use weapons.

He knew Yan Liang was a very brave man, and if he couldn't stop him with one move, there would be trouble. He pondered for a moment and whispered a few words to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Guan Yu showed disdain on his face.

"Why do we need to use tricks to capture this man?"

Liu Yu smiled and said, "This man is a famous general under Yuan Shao. If we can't subdue him in one move, there will be losses when the two armies clash. Although we are not afraid of him, Yunchang, don't forget that the purpose of our trip is to form an alliance, not to make enemies."

Liu Bei said, "Second brother, you cannot disobey my orders."

"only."

Guan Yu rode out on his horse, shouting, "Shuzhi, the emperor's uncle has given orders, hurry up..."

Chen Dao saw Guan Yu coming on horseback and heard what he said. It seemed like his lord had something to tell him, but he didn't hear clearly what it was.

He turned around and saw Guan Yu's mouth open but no sound came out. Just as he was feeling strange, Guan Yu's horse suddenly accelerated, passed him, and headed straight for Yan Liang.

Yan Liang was listening to Guan Yu's words seriously, but suddenly he saw Guan Yu riding a horse and charging towards him. He was startled and was about to raise his long sword to fight back, but the cold Qinglong Yanyue Sword was already on his neck. The cold blade instantly spread throughout his body.

The armored soldier behind Yan Liang was slightly startled when he saw that he was suddenly restrained. Just as he was about to urge his horse forward, he saw another big man with a black face riding his horse and rushing out from the side, holding a 10-foot-long spear and shouting loudly.

"I am Zhang Yide from Yan. Who dares to come here and die?"

The sound was like thunder, resounding through heaven and earth.

Liu Yu only felt a ringing in his ears. He was worthy of being Zhang Yide who shouted back Cao Cao's army. Although this shout did not have the same momentum as that one, it was enough to make Yuan Shao's 3,000 cavalrymen stop.

Taking advantage of the soldier's distraction.

Liu Yu and Liu Bei rode up to Yan Liang and said, "General Yan, tell the soldiers to stop advancing. Otherwise, your life will be in danger."

Yan Liang was so angry that he was fuming, and his black face turned dark purple.

"You have no moral principles and sneak attacks, what kind of skills are you?"

Liu Yu smiled and said, "We tried to persuade the general with kind words, but he would not listen. We are helpless and can only resort to this last resort."

Yan Liang saw that although Liu Yu had a friendly smile on his face, the knife that Guan Yu held on his neck was getting heavier and heavier. Looking at his troops who were still eager to move forward, he had no choice but to shout loudly: "Everyone stop, don't move forward."

All the soldiers stopped their horses and did not move forward.

Liu Yu continued, "General Yan, please send someone to deliver the business card to Lord Yuan. When Lord Yuan comes out, he will release you."

Yan Liang still maintained his stubborn attitude.

"I will remember the humiliation you caused me on the battlefield and will avenge you someday."

Guan Yu's face was full of pride.

"After this incident, if the general wants to seek revenge, Guan will be at his service anytime."
