Chapter 434 (1/2)

”Two generals, two generals!”

In the palace city of Yingchuan County, a group of officials under Liu Bei's command all looked strangely at Jian Yong, who was shouting loudly and walking at a fast pace with two robes in their hands.

This Mr. Jian Yong has always been very magnanimous. He likes to tell jokes to amuse everyone. Why is he in such a hurry today?

”Mr. Xianhe, what's the matter with you?” Some officials came forward to care.

Jian Yong waved his hand: ”urgent military situation, call the second general quickly!”

”Mr. Xianhe.” Guan Yu, a tall man, walked out calmly and asked, ”what's the matter?”

Jian Yong quickly stepped forward: ”the second general, according to the urgent report, Yuan Shu sent his chief General Ji Ling to lead 30000 troops from Yan County, with the front pointing to Yingyang.”

Guan Yu frowned: ”where's Chen Guo?”

Jian Yong shook his head: ”I haven't heard of Yuan Shu attacking the state of Chen. Maybe Yuan Shu is going to surround Wei and save Zhao.”

Guan Yu definitely nodded: ”well, if elder brother and Yide heard that Yingchuan had been invaded by Yuan army, it would be bad if Ji Ling laid an ambush on the way.”

Jian Yong cautiously said: ”the two generals mean that our army is fighting against Ji Ling 30000 army with Yingchuan county?”

It should be noted that the total number of Liu Bei's troops was only 5000. Liu Bei led 3000 troops in order to attack the state of Chen. Now, there are less than 2000 troops left by Guan Yu to guard Yingchuan county. The comparison of forces is quite different.

Guan Yu stroked his long beard and said, ”what are you afraid of? Our army should be able to muster more than ten thousand men to mobilize the city. Although it is impossible to fight against Ji Ling in the wild, it is enough to defend the city. ”

”Don't you need to ask the Lord for reinforcements?” Asked Jane Yong.

Guan Yu shook his head and his eyes were firm: ”the reason why Yuan Shu's traitor attacked Yingchuan county was that by attacking Yingchuan, he forced someone to ask for help from his elder brother and win the two counties in one fell swoop.”

After that, Guan Yu sneered: ”in this case, let's see whether Ji Ling's weapon is sharp or the general's blade is better.”

On September 20, when the horse galloped, Guan Yu ordered all the cities in Yingchuan county to give up immediately and shrink their forces to gather in the direction of Yingyang. As a result, Ji Ling's army of 30000 troops was able to be described as unstoppable. During the two days, he successively attacked several cities, such as Yanxian, Dingling, Kunyang and Linying, and their morale was like a rainbow.

More than ten miles south of Yingyang City, Ji Lingjun.

”Ha ha ha ha!” Ji Ling sat on his horse, holding a three pointed two-edged sword and laughing: ”Yan engaged, don't you still say that Guan Yu is a powerful general in Liu Bei's army? How dare not fight with Ben. ”

Yan Xiang warned: ”general Ji should not be negligent. Guan Yu gave up four or five cities. On the surface, he lost his city and lost his land. In fact, he concentrated all the troops of several cities in Yingyang city. It is very difficult for our army to attack the city.”

Ji Ling didn't care and said, ”haha, battle planning is Yan's strong point, but this March and war still depends on our general. Later on, I will let Yan engage in the battle and see the prestige of this general!”

As Ji Ling marched along, the morale of the 30000 army was like a long dragon, slowly approaching Yingyang city.

When Ji Ling looked up, he saw a big general on the top of the city, dressed in a green war jacket, holding a green dragon sword. He was nine feet long, his beard was two feet long, and his face was like a double jujube.

”Is that Guan Yu? Well, it looks like a prestige Ji Ling disdains the way.

Guan Yu saw Ji Ling's 30000 troops coming from afar. He said in a loud voice, ”is it Ji Ling who is under the city?”

His voice spread far away along the wind, which could be heard by the three armies.
