Chapter 174 The slow and leisurely Guan Erye

Although the Shu camp was basically full of soldiers to help, the opponent was too large and Yuchi Gong couldn't stand it, so he submitted an unintentional war letter to the opponent's garrison generals to let them know something and avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

Huang Zhong, who received the letter, just raised his eyebrows slightly. Since the other party did not dispatch large-scale troops, and all civilians and a large number of officials set up a watch seat there, there is no need to be so strict in guarding.

"Tell the other party that I know, but General Yun Chang has not arrived, so we must be prepared and ask them to understand."

So Huang Zhong sent Deputy General Zhang Yi to the Tang Army camp to briefly explain the situation on their side, and asked Yuchi Gong not to misunderstand that the Shu Kingdom had no intention of fighting, but because there were many bandits on the border and smugglers, they had to be more prepared.

The eldest brother Hei Yuchi Gong stood up and greeted him with a smile, and expressed his understanding: "I understand the name of General Huang and General Zhang Yi. I have admired him for a long time, but I wonder if I can stay for a while?"

"General Yuchi is very kind, and I am grateful to him, but the military affairs are busy, and the two countries are not not not interacting with each other. When a Japanese general or a general is on an envoy, he will definitely go to the meeting." Zhang Yi politely rejected Yuchi Gong's invitation. In his words and speech, Zhang Yi's spirit of a long-time general was admired by the Tang generals present.

Seeing that Zhang Yi politely declined himself and said that if both sides would invite each other to go on missions in the future, he had no reason to refuse. So he and the generals in the tent bowed to Zhang Yi to show their respect for each other.

"Goodbye."

After saying that, Zhang Yi left the Tang Army camp. Zhang Yi, wearing heavy armor, was like a tall giant in the eyes of the Tang Army generals. You must know that he went out to fight while sick on the battlefield and sprinkled blood on the battlefield. This is the glory of being a military general. Yuchi Gong also admires such a military general, so he is so respectful to Zhang Yi.

When Huang Zhong learned that Yuchi Gong was so informed and reasonable, it seemed that the Tang army generals were all enlightened, but the situation in front of him was solved. There were too many merchants who had flowed from outside to Shu Kingdom recently, and more were stolen people. These people had tried their best to avoid the inspection of the city gate.

"Meng Qi, I'm entrusting you with something." Huang Zhong called Ma Chao next to him. As a general of the cavalry, Ma Chao is already ranked third, but he is too young and can only be a deputy general under the experienced veteran.

The young and energetic Ma Chao is the deputy general under the experienced Huang Zhong, and he no longer has the arrogance he used to back then, because this era is no longer the era of their generations of princes, and they rely entirely on their own swords and guns to fight for their achievements.

"Please tell me, General." The young Ma Chao stepped forward and responded.

Huang Zhong thought for a while and looked up and said, "You lead 3,000 people into 300 teams, one team of ten people, and keep watch in shifts. Be sure to check the nearby woods and mountains to avoid any vacancies."

Ma Chao bowed and replied, "OK!"

"The smugglers and those bandits will definitely make trouble through this competition. The more this happens, the more you should be highly vigilant. Never let any smugglers and those bandits cross the border half a step." Huang Zhong repeatedly reminded Ma Chao before leaving that he must not be a childish temper. This matter is very important. If there are any mistakes, the consequences will be very serious.

"Don't worry, General Huang, I won't let this happen again."

Even though he said that, it seemed that what Ma Chao agreed to was not right, so Huang Zhong pulled Ma Dai over again and asked him to look at his elder brother well and call him if something happened.

Perhaps Huang Zhong had underestimated Ma Chao's ability a little. After leaving the camp, he ordered his Xiliang cavalry to lie down at night and lurk during the day, making the group of people think that there was no defense during the day and that they all came out to patrol at night, creating an illusion for the hesitant people.

…………

Two days later, the three men sent by Chen Dao had arrived near Meijiang, and it happened that they encountered Guan Ping's cavalry.

Guan Ping came to the three of them and shouted: "Stop, who are you!"

Seeing that Guan Ping was dressed up, the three people immediately recognized that this was Guan Yu's son, so they reported their identity and asked Guan Yu to follow them to Caoyang County.

"We are the subordinates of General Chen Dao. Your Majesty asked us to intercept General Guan Yu here and follow us to Caoyang County."

After hearing this, Guan Ping was still a little bit skeptical. When Liao Hua came to the front, he recognized the three people in front of him. The three of them were once Liao Hua's subordinates, but later they were about to leave by Chen Dao. Now the positions of the three of them are all military officers such as General Bi and General Pan.

"General Liao Hua!" The three of them called Liao Hua happily. When Liao Hua saw that the three of them were here, they would know what they said just now. The capital should have known this.

Liao Hua asked, "Did the Prime Minister and Your Majesty ask you to come?"

The three people replied, "Yes, and the Prime Minister repeatedly instructed me to wait here for General Guan, and take General Guan to Caoyang."

Immediately afterwards, Guan Yu also came to the front army. Seeing Guan Ping suddenly stopped, he asked what was going on. After Guan Ping told Guan Yu about the capital, Guan Yu looked at the three people in front of him and narrowed their eyes slightly. It seemed that the whole country knew that Guan Yu was going to fight with Qin Qiong.

Guan Yu stroked his right hand and asked with his eyes narrowed, "Are you three uncles under your command?"

“That’s right!”

"What did my elder brother and the Prime Minister specifically tell me?" Guan Yu asked again.

"Your Majesty said that they were waiting for General Guan on the north bank of Meijiang River and heading to Caoyang with you. Now they have arrived."

So Guan Ping called Liu Bei. After the phone was connected, Guan Yu took the phone and asked. Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei and other civil and military officials had already arrived at the north bank of the Meijiang River, and they were waiting for Guan Yu.

"Second brother, why haven't you arrived yet?" Liu Bei asked anxiously from the other end of the phone.

"Brother, I encountered some problems on the road and delayed for a while. I will meet you now." Guan Yu hung up the phone and immediately ordered everyone to speed up and move closer to the north bank of the Meijiang River.

Liu Bei was almost impatient to wait, and Li Shimin had already started to urge him. If he didn't come again, he would be regarded as abstention. Zhuge Liang was usually very calm, but he was not calm about the current situation.

The third brother Zhang Fei wanted to run over and carry the second brother over.

"Brother, why is the second brother so slow?" Zhang Fei said a little bored.

Liu Bei sighed and said, "Your second brother has this personality, wait."

So, after waiting for a long time, Guan Yu finally came with their people, and Guan Ping was holding a big banner with the word Guan. What a guy, Liu Bei forgot about the cheering flag, but fortunately Guan Ping brought it.
