Chapter 260: Forced to Retreat from the Forbidden City
"Guan Yunchang... really made him rush out..."
Yu Jin, who had gathered his troops and horses at this time, also saw the flag fluttering in the wind. Although he was very puzzled by Guan Yu's appearance here, he was not at all panicked.
"Although I don't know how you survived from the two generals Cao Chun and Xia Houyuan, but since you rushed over, you can't be too polite, right..."
"Where are the crossbowmen? Shoot!"
Following Yu Jin's order, teams were ready, and the crossbowmen who bent their bows and set arrows shot the arrows in their hands directly into the air.
There was still a slight gap between the two sides, and Yu Jin also knew that this would not cause any harm to Guan Yu and others, but it was enough to shoot down a hail of arrows between Guan Yu and Liu Bei's camp.
This kind of shock is enough to prevent the two sides from reuniting.
Sure enough, when the arrow rain fell, Guan Yu looked at the camp that was clearly in front of him, but faced with the threat of ban, he could only turn his horse's head and rush towards the opponent.
"Yu Wenze, you are looking for death!"
The angry Guan Yu took the lead and charged directly towards Yu Jin, roaring and waving the Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand directly towards Yu Jin.
"Crossbowman, shoot again!"
"Shoot!"
"Cum again!"
The soldiers and horses under Yu Jin's command are all veterans who have followed Yu Jin for many years. The earliest ones can even be traced back to the first year of Zhongping, when he was still a general under Bao Xin.
These soldiers followed him to quell the Yellow Turbans, attack Dong Zhuo, defect to Cao Cao, and finally dominate the world.
Yu Jin had already been asked to do what he ordered and prohibited. At this time, under Yu Jin's command, the crossbowmen kept shooting arrows in their hands.
The arrow rain fell from Guan Yu's head as if it would never stop.
At the same time, the sword and shield bearers and many other soldiers also slowly stepped forward, facing the charging Guan Yu without any fear, and raised their weapons high.
He also stood the shield in his palm in front of him.
"Ha!"
With a roar, Guan Yu heard the roars of the soldiers, and his face suddenly became serious.
The rain of arrows from the army above his head made him keep swinging his sword, but the armor and stomach on his body could not completely protect him.
Feeling the pain in my arms and legs, I even saw the whine of the red rabbit and horse under my crotch, and then looked at Cao Jun who was waiting in full formation.
Guan Yu's face became heavier and heavier.
"General Guan, take a rest, I'm waiting!" Just when Guan Yu was about to forcefully charge into the formation as before, there was a burst of shouting from behind.
Immediately after him, he saw Li Yan and Wu Yi running towards them from behind.
Behind them were Fazheng and Mengda, who were galloping on horseback and commanding the army.
"Array!"
In Guan Yu's surprised eyes, Meng Da waved the spear in his hand and shouted loudly, and the soldiers behind him also began to form a formation.
Even while running, he was constantly changing formations. His movements and momentum even made Guan Yu, one of his own, feel a burst of bravery...
"This is..."
"Back then, our Dongzhou soldiers also fought to the death to secure Yizhou. People in this world... must not underestimate this desperate soldier of our Dongzhou!"
Wu Yi's roar erupted in Guan Yu's ears, and immediately after, soldiers rushed over with shields, blocking Guan Yu's side to avoid the arrow rain from harming him.
At the same time, he covered Guan Yu's slow retreat, preventing him from forcibly breaking through the enemy's formation on his own like before.
"Feng missed... kill!"
It wasn't until Guan Yu returned to the formation that he discovered that this was indeed not Meng Da's ability, but that Fa was commanding him through Meng Da's mouth.
Guan Yu, who came from afar but had just experienced a great victory, fought for several days, and Yu Jin's soldiers and horses were well-trained.
The two sides fought in front of Liu Bei's eyes, and the brutality of the battlefield was undoubtedly exposed at this moment.
Although Yu Jin's command is indistinguishable from that of Fa Zheng, the elite soldiers under his command are indeed not comparable to those of Dongzhou soldiers who rely on their determination to die.
But Guan Yu, Wu Yi, Li Yan and even Meng Da are all brave and good at fighting, especially Guan Yu, whose reputation for bravery is known to the world.

Under their charge, no matter how determined Yu Jin's command was, the casualties of the soldiers could not be reduced.
As more and more Cao troops were killed by Guan Yu and others, the battle gradually shifted from a stalemate to Guan Yu's side.
"Guan Yu... is really as brave as ever..." Yu Jin looked at the people rushing back and forth, and Guan Yu, who felt like he was in a deserted place, couldn't help but sigh, "But the person who is commanding should not be underestimated. Be careful.
..."
After confirming that it was difficult for him to guarantee victory, Yu Jin made a decisive decision and immediately issued an order to evacuate.
"I personally cut off the rear, and you and others slowly evacuated. The soldiers under Guan Yu's command may look fierce, but in fact they must have experienced many deadly battles. They must not dare to pursue!
The army evacuates!"
Following Yu Jin's order, Cao's army immediately began to retreat in an orderly manner, and even had time to take away most of the baggage in his camp.
Even those that cannot be taken away will be burned directly with a fire to help Yujin stop the enemy...
Yu Jin's evacuation also made Guan Yu successfully breathe a sigh of relief. This time, Fazheng did not need to say anything to directly stop the soldiers from continuing to pursue.
"You are temporarily repairing and cleaning the battlefield, while Guan goes to find supplies and food for you!"
Guan Yu gave an order and directly asked Zhao Lei, Wu Yi and others to continue to take care of the troops and horses, and then repair and standby.
He led Fazheng and rushed towards Liu Bei, who was also galloping towards him.
"Yun Chang!" If Chen Dao and others around him hadn't tried their best to stop him, Liu Bei might have been unable to bear it and led his men to rush out to fight alongside his brothers again.
Now that he saw Guan Yu repelling Yu Jin and giving them a chance to breathe, Liu Bei couldn't bear it and immediately galloped over.
"Brother!" After seeing Liu Bei again after seeing him for a long time, Guan Yu couldn't hide his excitement. He threw his saddle and dismounted. Regardless of his armored stomach, he knelt down and saluted Liu Bei.
"Guan Yu is late..."
"Yun Chang!" Liu Bei also quickly dismounted and pulled Guan Yu up from the ground, who was much taller than him. "Yun Chang! There is no need for this. If it weren't for Yun Chang, I would have died without a burial place..."
"Brother!"
"Yun Chang..."
"Cough cough cough cough!" Fazheng looked at the two people who were almost hugging each other and finally couldn't help but let out a light cough, interrupting the two people's reminiscence.
"Fufeng practices filial piety and uprightness, and pays homage to Duke Xuande!"
"Fa Xiaozhi?" Liu Bei looked at this thin young man with a smile on his face, "Kong Ming once said that Xichuan has many resourceful people, and Xiaozhi is the best among them.
Now that Yun Chang can break through many obstacles and join forces with Bei, I think it is probably because of Xiaozhi..."
"Mr. Xuande, you've received the award." Although Fazheng was modest, his face was full of arrogance, "But Mr. Xuande, please suspend your excitement.
