Guan Yu was defeated by Maicheng. This man is actually Guan Yu's nemesis.
In the twenty-four years of Jian 'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Shu defeated Guan Yu, retreated to Maicheng, and staged an eternal tragedy. Maicheng is famous at home and abroad. There are ruins in the city. It is 600 meters long from north to south, 100 meters wide and 30 meters high. It is located on the Qushui River like a hill.
In 2 18 and 10, Nanyang people were exploited and rioted. Hou Yin, the commander-in-chief, took the opportunity to rebel and wrote to Guan Yu for help. Guan Yu was slow to respond, and Yin was captured and killed by Coss.
In July 29, Guan Yu was encouraged by Liu Bei's victory in Hanzhong and went north to Xiangfan. With Cao Cao's imperial army as the general, he supervised seven armies to save Coss, and ordered Huang Xu to lead the army into Wancheng. In August, mountain torrents broke out and flooded seven armies, including Jin Ban. Guan Yu took the opportunity to attack, Pound was killed and surrendered to Jin Ban. Coss Shen Baima sticks to Fancheng. Guan Yu took some generals to attack Xiangyang, attacked Fancheng himself, and set an ambush in the north of Fancheng to prevent the northern Cao Jun from reinforcing; At the same time, people were sent to rebel against nearby counties, Jingzhou secretariat Hu Xiu and Nanxiang satrap Fu Fang surrendered, and some officials south of Xuchang secretly coordinated Guan Yu; Xiongnu Sun and Wolf gathered to make trouble and responded to Guan Yu. Ye satirized the opportunity to launch a coup. The so-called Megatron China.
Cao Cao listened to the opinions of Sima Yi, Jiang Ji and others, made an alliance with Sun Quan, ordered Huang Xu to lead an army to save Coss, and named Zhang Liao as Coss' quick aid. Sun Quan deliberately sent Lu Xun to represent Monroe and Guan Yu, so he took away some Jingzhou defenders. In October, Sun Quan appointed Monroe as the prefect, led an army to attack Jiangling, followed by Sun Jiao, and sent right-back Jiang Qin to the Shuijun River to stop Guan Yu from going down the river. Lu Zhi arrived in Xunyang, disguised warships as merchant ships, and soldiers disguised as businessmen, working day and night.
Force Shu to surrender to the public security, and persuade Mi Fang, commander-in-chief of Jiangling, to be kind to Guan Yu's soldiers, release Wei Junbing who was captured by Guan Yu, and appease the people. At the same time, Lu Xun went to Yiling and defended Liu Bei in the west. After Huang Xu went to the front, he got in touch with Coss, and Coss' morale increased greatly.
In order to alienate Sun Liu and profit from it, it is Sun Quan's Ministry that will send someone to write a letter. Guan Yu hesitated after seeing it. As far away as Huangxu, the army captured Guan Yu's stronghold, breached Guan Yu and took the opportunity to get through the Fancheng route. When the flood receded, Coss took Huang Xu to attack Guan Yu. Wen Pin shortened Guan Yu's waterway route for providing foodstuff, and Guan Yu was losing ground. Knowing that Jingzhou fell, Guan Yu quickly withdrew his troops, and the soldiers learned that their families were well received and their morale dropped sharply. Guan Yu was defeated by Maicheng.
In the twenty-fourth year of Jian 'an, Guan Yu attacked Fancheng and was submerged by seven armies, which greatly boosted his military strength. Cao Cao once proposed to move the capital to avoid its sharpness. In October of the 24th year of Jian 'an, General Monroe, Guan Yu and Fan Cheng Coss of Jiangdong jointly attacked Jingzhou and captured Guan Yu's stronghold Jiangling. Guan Yu was attacked on both sides and quickly withdrew from Fancheng and entered Maicheng. Monroe adopted the strategy of disintegration, which made Guan Yu's soldiers unwilling to fight and gradually dispersed. Guan Yu was isolated and stuck to Maicheng. Sun Quan sent someone to induce Guan Yu to surrender. Guan Yu pretended to surrender, put up a flag at the head of the city and pretended to be a sergeant, but he escaped, only a dozen cavalry followed. Sun Quan sent Zhu Ran and Pan Zhang to cut off Guan Yu, captured Guan Yu's father and son Guan Ping in Linzhou and executed them immediately.
