The book continued, and Yang Lei recommended Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to kill Ji Ling, which annoyed Lu Bu. Lu Bu said angrily,"Why can't I go?"”Cao Xing was also indignant. "If Ji Ling sees Wen Hou, I'm afraid she will immediately retreat. How can Wen Hou kill Ji Ling then?" Yang Lei laughed.”Lu Bu chuckled and did not say anything. Cao Xing and the others also changed their expressions. When Guan Yu heard this, his eyes widened and he said,""Since Yuting said so, big brother, I'll go kill Ji Ling.”Liu Bei turned to Yang Lei and looked at him. Yang Lei smiled and said,""Second brother will definitely succeed in this trip, but please help me, General Wen Yuan.”"Oh." Liu Bei paused for a moment before turning to Zhang Liao."If that's the case, I'll need Wenyuan to make a trip.”Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and sized up Zhang Liao. He then said,"With Wen Yuan's help, I'll definitely succeed.”Zhang Liao saw that even Liu Bei and Guan Yu said so, so he hurriedly stepped forward and cupped his hands, saying,""Liao Bucai is willing to assist General Guan to complete the mission.”"That's good." Liu Bei smiled and then said,"Second Brother, go with Wen Yuan. You will be safe. However, Ji Ling has many soldiers. In that case, I would like to ask General Hao Meng and General Hou Cheng to lend us a hand."”Hao Meng and Hou Cheng also stepped forward and said,""I'm willing to share your worries." Liu Bei nodded. "What else do you have to say?" he asked.”"My lord," Chen Deng replied. This year's summer grain income has been calculated. After deep ploughing and intensive cultivation and extensive application of agricultural fertilizer, the grain yield per mu has increased by 50%. There's no need to worry about military rations." "Good, good, good. Oh right, not only do we have to worry about military rations, but we also have to ensure that the people have food in their homes. Only then can the people feel at ease.”Liu Bei said happily. "Yes." Chen Deng said with a smile, and everyone laughed as well.
At the gates of Si County, the flag of Yuan Shu's army was fluttering high. Ji Ling was calling out for battle, rejoicing in her heart. Fortunately, Liu Bei's army was led by Guan Yu. As for Zhang Liao, he was only one of the eight generals under Lu Bu's command. His status was not even comparable to Gao Shun's. How could he catch Ji Ling's eye, who considered himself the number one general in Yuan Shu's army? As long as it wasn't Lu Bu, Ji Ling was confident that she would win. After all, Lu Bu's reputation was well-known throughout the world. If she were to face Lu Bu, Ji Ling would have already ordered her troops to retreat. As for Guan Yu, Zhan Huaxiong was the first to show off his abilities. However, after the battle at Tiger Cage Pass, he had no other achievements. Thus, although Ji Ling thought that Guan Yu was very powerful, he should not be a match for her. As for the battle between Huang Zhong and Lu Bu, it had spread all over the world. The unknown Huang Zhong had suddenly become a brave general on par with Guan Zhang. Coupled with his superb archery skills, he seemed to be on the verge of surpassing Guan Zhang. Fortunately, Huang Zhong had been guarding the Nine Mile Mountain. Ji Ling was somewhat glad, but also somewhat gloating. It was said that Liu Biao had scolded the civil officials and generals of the Jing State for this. Wen Pin, who was known as the number one general of the Jing State, had been unable to raise his head for a long time. Uh, he was thinking too far ahead. Just as he was thinking about this, he heard the sound of drums and horns in the city. The city gate opened and 500 machetemen rushed out. Among them was a general with a red face and long beard. In his hand was the famous cold saw. This was the famous Second Master Guan. A general followed behind Second Master. He had a purple jade face and bright eyes. He also had a large saber in his hand. He looked like a majestic general. Who was this person? Just as Ji Ling thought of this, she saw Guan Yu urging his horse to come to the front of the formation and shouting,"Ji Ling, how dare you invade the borders of my Xu Prefecture? Quickly come out and accept your death." Ji Ling was also furious. She waved the three-pointed double-edged saber in her hand and urged her horse out of the formation. She shouted,"Guan Yu, don't twist logic. It was Liu Bei who first invaded our borders and came here to take revenge.”"My brother has received an edict from the Emperor to punish the rebels," Guan Yu sneered. You dare to come and refuse, you are asking for death.”Ji Ling was furious, but she didn't reply. Instead, she rode her horse straight for Guan Yu. Guan Yu had heard Yang Lei's words and was determined to kill Ji Ling. In addition, Yang Lei's words implied that he and Zhang Fei were ranked below Lu Bu. Although it was the truth, with Guan Yu's proud personality, how could he take it? If it wasn't for Lu Bu's recent surrender, the generals would have long joined Zhang Fei and clamored to fight 300 rounds with Lu Bu. He had the intention to kill Ji Ling in this battle, which was why he was so powerful that he wouldn't rest until one of them died. As for Ji Ling, she immediately felt the disparity between them as soon as they exchanged blows. Oh my god, this Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's name was really not just for show. No wonder they could kill Hua Xiong with warm wine. Feeling the difference in strength didn't mean that he wanted to die, so he used all his skills to fight Guan Yu. The war drums sounded, and the horns of the painting sounded. The two of them fought for about thirty rounds in front of the formation, but there was still no winner. Even so, looking at the sweat on Ji Ling's temples and Guan Yu's usual arrogance, it was obvious who had the upper hand. Seeing this, Ji Ling thought," This isn't the end. If this continues, I'll definitely be killed by Guan Yu on the spot. I don't want to die yet." However, the two of them were fighting happily, so how could they break free? However, his arms were starting to go numb. If he didn't break free, he would really die. Ji Ling panicked. It was just a battle between the two armies. The three-pointed double-edged saber pushed Guan Yu's Green Dragon Crescent Saber away with all its might. Then, it shouted,"General Guan, take a rest, take a rest.”Hearing this, not only Guan Yu, even the generals and soldiers holding the line were stunned. They had never heard of a one-on-one battle between two armies being called a break. Although Guan Yu was determined to kill Ji Ling, he had read the Spring and Autumn Annals for a long time and was also awe-inspiring and righteous. Facing Ji Ling who was shouting and shouting, even if he wanted to kill him, he couldn't do it. He retracted his saber and shouted,"Ji Ling, I'll let you rest for a while. I'll leave your head with you for the time being. I'll come back for it later.”Ji Ling didn't reply. She turned her horse around and returned to the formation.
Guan Yu had also returned to his formation. Seeing this, Zhang Liao hurriedly asked,""General Guan, why didn't you kill that bastard?”Guan Yu stroked his beard and said coldly,"I want that bastard to die willingly."”Zhang Liao was silent. After Ji Ling returned to the formation, Xun Zheng asked,""General, why don't we take a break and kill Guan Yu?”Ji Ling rolled her eyes at him but didn't say anything. Seeing this, Xun Zheng stood at the side dejectedly. A moment later, Guan Yu urged his horse out of the formation and shouted,""Ji Ling, let's have a showdown.”Ji Ling closed her eyes and pretended not to hear anything. Seeing this, Xun Zheng immediately said,"General. Guan Yu is challenging us." "General Xun, your martial arts skills are not inferior to mine. I can still fight with Guan Yu for thirty rounds. Guan Yu must be tired. If you go into battle now, you will definitely be able to kill Guan Yu.”"General," said Xun Zheng,"you are willing to give me this credit." I'll definitely repay you in the future." As he spoke, he urged his horse out of the formation. Ji Ling cursed in her heart. Idiot, if I didn't let you win, you would be lucky to survive three rounds against me. Even so, he still hoped that Xun Zheng would be able to hold on for a few rounds before he led his army to attack. He did not believe that a small city like Si County would not be able to handle the fifteen thousand men that Guan Yu had brought from Xu Prefecture. As for Xuzhou, Lu Bu was there, and there was also the supposedly powerful Huang Zhong. For the time being, they would not go after him. After taking down Si County and defeating Guan Yu, they would be able to give their lord an explanation when they returned. Ji Ling was dreaming. Xun Zheng came to the front of the formation. Seeing that it was not Ji Ling, Guan Yu shouted,""Just call Ji Ling out. I want to compete with him.”Xun Zheng pursed his lips and said disdainfully," You are just a nameless general. Why do you need General Ji to come out? I am enough to cut off your head."”Hearing this, Guan Yu was furious. Other than the time when he killed Huaxiong in Tiger Cage Pass, he was ridiculed for being a horse archer. After that, no one dared to call him a nameless subordinate. Immediately, he opened his red phoenix eyes and raised his silkworm-like eyebrows. He urged his horse to go straight for Xun Zheng. Xun Zheng could not show any weakness either. He held his spear and charged forward. The two horses crossed each other. With a ripping sound, Xun Zheng's head flew off. Blood spurted out from his neck. His corpse swayed a few times and fell off the horse. In front of the two armies, there was a moment of silence. After Guan Yu killed Xun Zheng, he shouted with power,""Ji Ling, you bastard, you're just hiding your head and showing your tail. Hurry up and come out and die.”These words were loud and clear, and Ji Ling shrank her head in shock. Do you think I'm stupid? Go out and die. At that moment, he gave the order for the entire army to advance. Seeing that Ji Ling was ignoring him and was instead attacking the city, Guan Yu was even more furious. He waved his cold saw and the 500-card machetemen charged forward under the orders of the station commanders. Zhang Liao was about to retreat back to the city to defend himself when he saw that the 500-card machetemen were actually going to charge back at the enemy army under Guan Yu's orders. He couldn't help but be stunned. Then, he took the lead and charged at Yuan Shu's army. Without any other reason, military orders were like mountains. Now that Guan Yu was the commander, everything would naturally follow Guan Yu's orders. Guan Yu urged his horse and headed straight for Ji Ling's flag. He wanted to kill Ji Ling in the midst of the chaos. Seeing Guan Yu rushing over, Ji Ling was not worried, but happy instead. She hurriedly ordered the soldiers to step forward to block him. Unexpectedly, Guan Yu suddenly shouted, shocking the soldiers who had just witnessed Guan Yu's bravery to the point that their limbs went limp. They did not dare to step forward, and instead cowered to make way for Guan Yu. Guan Yu took advantage of the situation to attack Ji Ling. Seeing that Guan Yu had come so quickly that the soldiers did not dare to resist, Ji Ling was shocked and did not dare to go forward. Instead, she turned her horse around and hurriedly retreated. Guan Yu arrived just in time, so how could he let him escape? He shouted,""Ji Ling, where are you going?" The Green Dragon Crescent Blade swung down. As the number one general of Yuan Shu's army, Ji Ling not only relied on his martial strength, but also his ability to command troops. And who didn't have a trusted guard? The trusted guards were initially intimidated by Guan Yu's aura and didn't dare to move. However, when they saw Ji Ling in danger, they didn't care about their fear anymore and immediately surrounded her. There was even a flag bearer beside Ji Ling. When he saw Guan Yu's saber coming down, he didn't care about it at all. In the face of life and death, he burst out with potential and jumped behind Ji Ling. Under Guan Yu's saber, even the commander flag in his hand was cut into two. Ji Ling also heard a soft sound behind her. Then, she felt a chill on her back, followed by a warmth. The chill came from the blade cutting through her armor and brushing past her skin. The warmth came from the blood of the flag bearer splattering onto his body. At this moment, the personal guards had surrounded him. They fought with Guan Yu to the death while protecting Ji Ling as she escaped. After Guan Yu killed a few people, Ji Ling had already fled far away. At the same time, the battlefield began to shout the slogan 'Ji Ling is dead, those who surrender will not be killed.' It was Zhang Liao who saw that General Ji Ling's flag had fallen and ordered his soldiers to shout to disturb the morale of the army. At this moment, Hao Meng and Hou Cheng had also led their troops out of the city. Yuan Shu's army saw that Commander Ji Ling's flag had fallen, and his command was in a mess. The generals killed for a while and then withdrew under Guan Yu's order. Ji Ling had only managed to stabilize himself after fleeing thirty li away. He had gathered his army and had lost two to three tenths. So he set up a large camp and confronted Guan Yu. He let Guan Yu scold him and did not go out to fight. He also sent a messenger to Yuan Shu to report the situation to him and wait for Yuan Shu to consider it.
