    "Pass me an order to inform all the people in the city to dig deep trenches within a thousand meters of Anyi City. At the same time, I will inform the head of the Wei family, Wei Zhongdao, and order him to send out private soldiers from the clan to prepare arrows and logs to defend the city.  , boulder!¡±

    "My subordinates take orders!"

    With Guan Yu¡¯s command, the soldier seemed to have found his backbone and showed no panic. After receiving the order, he bowed his fist to Guan Yu and saluted, and then immediately turned around and rode back to Anyi City.

    "Wen Gong, Zuo Gong, and Tong Gong, now Anyi will face a strong enemy, and the war is approaching, so it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. I hope Wen Gong, Zuo Gong, and Tong Gong will return to Anyi with me."

    The horse tamer, Zuo Ci and Tong Yuan looked at each other and nodded in agreement.  Tong Yuan even spoke.

    "Hedong is a rare paradise in today's troubled times. Lu Fengxian's attack on Hedong for no reason is really lawless and wanton. If Yun Chang needs me for anything, just ask. Although I am old, I still have the strength to go into battle and kill the enemy!"

    "Mr. Tong, what you said is true. This is a rare paradise. Lu Fengxian invades without reason, so he is not afraid of being punished by God. Although I am a Taoist priest with three religions and nine schools of thought, I am still willing to contribute a little to help Yunchang defeat Lu Fengxian!"

    Zuo Ci, who had an immortal spirit, became angry and his eyes were very frightening.  The horse tamer also opened his mouth when he saw that his two old friends were speaking to help each other, so how could they fall behind?

    "Since Tong Gong and Zuo Gong have both spoken clearly, it seems that I can't stay out of it, old man. Don't worry, Yun Chang. With me and the other three old men here, you don't have to worry about Zhang Liao's troops. Concentrate and  Lu Feng, let¡¯s face the enemy first.¡±

    The horse tamer, Zuo Ci, and Tong Yuan were all willing to contribute, which immediately reduced Guan Yu's pressure. Except for Zuo Ci, the horse tamer and Tong Yuan both had battlefield experience. The two of them commanded the defense of the city, so there should be no serious problems.  Moreover, the three of them have extraordinary martial arts skills. Even if Zhang Liao is brave, there is absolutely no way he can defeat the three of them.

    After several people agreed, the horse trainer, Zuo Ci, and Tong Yuan asked Guan Yu to take Diao Chan and Cai Yan away first. After they packed their bags, they rushed back to Anyi City.

    After a while, Guan Yu and the groom rode at the front of the carriage, while Diao Chan and Cai Yan sat in the carriage behind the horse.  The groom flicked his whip, and the two horses neighed in unison and ran quickly along the mountain road.

    In the carriage carriage.  There was a worried and gloomy look on Diao Chan's stunningly beautiful face, and her white fingers were rubbed red.  Cai Yan also knew the story between her, Guan Yu and Lu Bu, and knew that the kind-hearted Diao Chan would definitely feel guilty because of Lu Bu's military crimes, so she softly persuaded her.

    "Sister Hoy, don't blame yourself. Although the second brother is not good at showing it, his deep feelings for you are clearly seen by others like me. You are his true love, and the second brother is an upright man.  How can we allow others to take away his love? And from the moment you decide to follow your second brother, you are our indispensable family member. Saburo once said that family is something that people can give their lives to protect.  At the same time, it is also the creed of the entire Hedong, from civil servants and military commanders to ordinary people.

    "And the second brother is an extraordinary general in the world. He will definitely be able to protect Anyi and repel powerful enemies.  And sister Hoy, don¡¯t do anything stupid.  Although I am a house of women, I am sure that if you return to Lu Bu in order to stop this war.  At that time, both the second brother and the third brother will definitely use all their forces to fight Lu Bu to the death. Unless they can rescue you, they will not stop fighting!  !  "

    Diao Chan's star-like eyes were ripples rising one after another. Just now, she had indeed thought of sacrificing herself and returning to Lu Bu to end the war. But when Cai Yan said this, she was so moved that she burst into tears.  She felt a surge of emotion, and at the same time she felt a strong sense of belonging. This land seemed to have become her home.

    "I want to stay, I want to stay with Brother Guan, I want to stay in this family."

    Diao Chan shouted in her heart, and at the same time the beauty's tears fell gently. Diao Chan held the clothes tightly with her hands and bit her cherry mouth to prevent herself from crying.  Seeing such a beautiful face with such a sad expression, even Cai Yan, a woman, felt sad.  Like a big sister, Cai Yan held Diao Chan in her arms, gently patted her delicate body and comforted her softly.

    At this time, Guan Yu, who was in front of the carriage, did not know that his lover was crying.  At this time, his face was solemn and full of resolute fighting spirit, and he made an oath in his heart that he would rather die than let Lu Bu's troops enter Anyi City!

    Half an hour later, the carriage returned to Anyi City.  Zhou Long and Wei Zhongdao had been waiting anxiously for a long time. When they saw Guan Yu getting off the carriage, they both looked startled and rushed towards Guan Yu.

    "Brother, don't worry, Master Wei. I have everything under my control. Have you started to implement the things I just sent back to tell you?"

    Before Zhou Long could open his mouth, Guan Yu began to speak harshly.  When Zhou Long and Wei Zhongdao saw Guan Yu's determined expression, they were afraid that a mountain would collapse.With his unchanging appearance, I think he must be confident in repelling Lu Bu.  In this way, Zhou Long and Wei Zhongdao also calmed down a bit.  Zhou Long said first.

    "Just now, eldest brother, I have ordered the five thousand soldiers in the city to start digging a deep ditch outside the city. At the same time, I also informed the people in the city of the news of Lu Bu's soldiers and asked them to prepare. However, second brother, there were many common people among them, and they swarmed  They rushed to the main hall of the county government and said they were willing to contribute to the defense of the city. "Second brother, what do you think?"

    "At present, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao's 16,000 cavalry troops are rushing towards Anyi. Time is running out. Since the people are willing to contribute to the defense of their homeland, we have no reason to refuse. However, we don't know when the enemy troops will arrive.  , these people have no fighting power, and they will be massacred if they encounter the enemy. In this way, the eldest brother arranged for them to dig this deep ditch within 500 meters, and our soldiers dug the other 500 meters.  Come, even if the enemy troops attack, the soldiers in front can buy time for the people to escape into the city."

    "Okay, I understand. I'll go back and make arrangements right away."

    Zhou Long nodded and turned back to Anyi City.  After Zhou Long left, Wei Zhongdao also opened his mouth.

    "Second General, I have divided the clan's soldiers into two groups. One group is making arrows, and the other group is collecting boulders and logs from the surrounding mountains and forests. In addition, I don't know where else the Second General needs help from the Wei family.  The Wei family must be determined!"

    "The Wei clan has great righteousness. The enemy army is huge, and they have the courage of Lu Bu and Zhang Liao. I hope that the Wei clan chief can lend us a thousand Wei clan elite guards and two thousand elite soldiers."

    Although the Wei family has 10,000 to 20,000 private soldiers, these private soldiers cannot be compared with soldiers on the march. The main function of these private soldiers is to protect a family.  Therefore, their combat power cannot be compared with real soldiers. If they really go to the battlefield, an army of three thousand people will be able to kill most of the private soldiers.

    Of course, among the private soldiers of the Wei family, there are also elite teams, such as the Wei family's elite guards. The soldiers in them are all the heirs of Wei Qing's confidants. Their martial arts and fighting methods are passed down from generation to generation, and they have a sense of belonging to the Wei family.  Extremely strong, I regard the honor of the Wei family as my life.  And if all the talents are drawn from the private soldiers, two thousand elite soldiers can be raised.

    Of course, if Guan Yu wanted to support the Wei family with four pillars, he would almost lose two of the pillars of the Wei family.  However, Wei Zhongdao did not hesitate and nodded in agreement on the spot.

    "The Wei family has been deeply favored by Wen Guanjun. It is the duty of the Wei family to protect Anyi. I will go back and make arrangements. Before tomorrow, the Wei family's elite guards and two thousand elite soldiers will be handed over to the hands of the second general."

    "There are no words of thanks for the great kindness. The Wei family's contribution to Anyi will never be in vain. When the third brother returns, I will definitely report him one by one."

    After Wei Zhongdao heard this, he smiled faintly and bowed to Guan Yu before leaving.  Guan Yu returned to the carriage and escorted Cai Yan and Diao Chan back to their homes. Then he hurried to the outside of the city alone and ordered his soldiers to dig deep ditches.

    News of Lu Bu's invasion of Hedong soon spread throughout Anyi City, and the people in the city were more indignant than fearful.  Almost all of them were doing what they could, either helping the soldiers outside the city dig deep ditches, collecting boulders and logs in the mountains and forests around Anyi, or rushing to the Wei family to make arrows with the Wei family's servants and private soldiers.  arrow.

    Wenhan, on the other hand, has a cautious personality and takes precautions for everything. Anyi is the governor of Hedong County, so how could he not take precautions in advance.  In fact, Anyi City already has a lot of arrows, boulders, and logs needed to defend the city.  However, Guan Yu didn't know if this would be a protracted war, or if Lu Bu would unite with other princes to invade.  Therefore, the more supplies needed to defend the city, the more stable Anyi will be.

    Two days later, outside Anyi City, there was a deep ditch every 100 meters. The defenders and people of Anyi dug day and night. The scope of this deep ditch was about 800 meters.

    At this time, Guan Yu was commanding the soldiers, while Zhou Long was commanding the people of Anyi.  The deep trenches were like dragons lurking in the deep trenches. The soldiers and civilians dug in the trenches in unison. Every time a piece of soil was shoveled, they all shouted in unison.

    In a moment, a soldier with blood-covered armor, no helmet, and disheveled hair came galloping towards him. Before he arrived, he fell off his horse and shouted loudly.

    "Here he comes!! Lu Bu is here!!!"

    Guan Yu, who was taking command, saw that the scout was covered in blood, and knew that something was wrong. Hearing his call, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly ordered the soldiers on the left and right to retreat three hundred meters, and then divided into two groups.  One group stayed behind and the other group protected the people of Anyi and returned to the city.

    After Guan Yu gave his stern instructions, all the soldiers immediately started to move, and he led a few soldiers to run to the scout.

    "Where have Lu Bu's troops arrived!?"

    "General Bing'er's army was only one mile awayour teamencountered Lu Bu's army and immediately evacuated. Who knew that Lu Bu was there?"?, shooting arrows continuously, all the soldiers in our team were shot to death.  I was able to escape only after being protected by everyone to the death.  "

    The scout was running the fastest just now. In order to let him escape, his comrades did not hesitate to use their bodies to block arrows for him.  However, what a person Lu Bu was, and his archery skills were unparalleled in the world, and he could pierce a Yang with a hundred steps.  When he sat down, there was a red rabbit and a horse, and he shot almost all the soldiers to death from a distance.  Later, he was lucky, and under the protection of his comrades, he distanced himself from Lu Bu, but still, he was shot in the helmet and chest with arrows by Lu Bu, and finally escaped with a strong spirit to report the information.

    Now that he has completed his mission, as soon as his nerves relax, his mind quickly leaves his body, and he eventually dies.  Guan Yu looked coldly and asked the soldiers around him to carry away the body of the martyr and hero, and then led the people back into the ditch.

    Not long after Guan Yu left, he saw not far away a military commander wearing a purple gold crown with three prongs and a head-swallowing animal face, sitting on a red fire-wind horse, and holding a Fang Tian painted halberd with thunderous movements.  Come speed.  The terrifying aura that filled his body was enough to shake the heavens and the earth and drive away ghosts and gods.

    The momentum of one person is enough to make all the soldiers left behind feel cold all over.  The retreating people were so frightened when they saw Lu Bu's power that they fled even faster, swarming towards the city gate.  The group of soldiers who maintained order on the side could not stop the chaos, and the situation was chaotic.

    Guan Yu ordered the remaining soldiers to retreat 200 meters, and then gave a sharp shout, which sounded like a bell and shook the place.

    "Zhou Cang!!! Bring my weapons!!!"

    Zhou Cang, who was staying at the top of the city, heard Guan Yu shout loudly, his face tightened, and he hurriedly moved his flying legs and ran straight down the city.  At this time, Lu Bu saw from a distance a red-faced man wearing a parrot green shirt and dragon-headed armor. His face suddenly became ferocious, and he spewed out words one by one from his mouth.
