Chapter 2719 Hua Tuo!

Guan Ping now trusted Wang Yue completely, and upon receiving Wang Yue's orders, he quickly led his troops to capture Xiakou and Fankou.

Wang Yue ordered Guan Ping to lead 6,000 elite troops and 4000 soldiers from the bandit-suppressing command to place catapults on the city wall, closely guarding against passing ships and any movement from the east. He and Guan Yinping led 4,000 elite troops and 2000 new recruits towards the crossroads.

Lu Xun soon learned of the loss of Xiakou.

When Lu Xun learned that it was Guan Ping who had returned, he knew that the Battle of Xiangfan was over. He was so frightened that he quickly withdrew his troops, abandoning Lukou and instead stationing them at Baqiu.

It's not that Lu Xun was cowardly; the key was that Guan Yu's battle record was too impressive, and they in Jiangdong couldn't even defeat Wang Yue's subordinates, let alone Guan Yu himself.

Baqiu has a very special geographical location, which is located at the junction of Jiangxia and Changsha. Moreover, the terrain here is treacherous and very suitable for defense.

As for why not guard the land crossing.

The reason is that there are no natural defenses around Lukou, and the only defense is the natural barrier of the river. But now that Xiakou and Fankou have been lost, and Guan Ping's troops have already crossed the Yangtze River, he certainly cannot stay here to fight against the aggressive Guan Ping and Guan Yu.

Thus, Wang Yue and Guan Yinping easily occupied Lukou, leaving Wang Nian to lead 2000 men to guard it, while he and Guan Yinping led 4,000 elite troops to set up camp outside Baqiu City.

Wang Yue and Guan Yinping were not there to attack, but to keep an eye on Lu Xun so that Guan Ping could lead his troops to sweep through Jiangxia.

Meanwhile, Mi Fang and Fu Shiren also received a notification that Guan Ping had captured Xiakou and Fankou, and they no longer needed to worry about Jiangdong causing trouble on the water.

So Mi Fang led his men back to Jiangling to prepare for the army's logistics, while Fu Shiren led his troops across Dongting Lake using Wu Ban's navy and headed towards Luo County.

Fu Shiren's grand gestures caught Lu Xun's attention. He worried that Fu Shiren would lead his troops straight to Changsha and completely cut off his retreat. Helpless, he had no choice but to retreat again and return to Yiyang first, even abandoning Luo County.

The war here was going quite smoothly, so when Guan Yu hurriedly led his men over, he was somewhat incredulous at the fact.

Has he taken back the entire territory of Jingzhou?

Everything went so smoothly!

However, Guan Yu reacted very quickly. He first ordered Mi Fang to select those prisoners who were willing to help Jingzhou fight, and then Zhou Cang led them to help Guan Ping. He led 20,000 troops and quickly arrived at the city of Yiyang.

When Lu Xun saw Guan Yu's large beard from afar, he knew that the city could not be defended at all. Without hesitation, he abandoned the city and headed towards Yuzhang via the mountain road.

Guan Yu looked down on the cowardly Lu Xun, so he only sent a troop to Guiyang County to take over, and then led the troops back to Jiangling.

Guiyang Commandery has always been very shrewd. No matter who occupies Changsha, he will pledge allegiance to them. So, no matter how the Sun and Liu families fought, he was always the governor of Guiyang Commandery.

The main reason is that this place was too remote in the context of the Three Kingdoms period, and no one really looked up to it.

Of course, Guan Yinping and Wang Yue also returned.

On the way back to Jiangling, Wang Yue and Guan Yinping parted ways. While riding alone and feeling bored, he suddenly heard a system notification.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the side quest and obtaining the skill 'Solo Attack'!"

Guan Yu was actually struggling with how to deal with Wang Yue!

Wang Yue made great contributions in this battle. If Wang Yue had been an ordinary citizen, Guan Yu would have entrusted the army to him without hesitation.

Guan Yu respected Zhuge Liang, so he also highly valued intelligent people. He felt that Wang Yue was capable of turning the tide as Guan Yinping's strategist, and if he were a general, he could confidently entrust a region to Wang Yue.

But now Wang Yue has no identity, and can't even name himself, which is clearly not right. So, Guan Yu asked someone to examine Wang Yue to see if he had genuine amnesia or was faking it.

Guan Yinping was unaware of all this. She received Guan Yu's reward under the identity of Guan Jinping, and then arranged for Wang Nian, Guan Hu, and Guan Bao to return to the headquarters of the bandit-suppressing officers. She then happily went home with her father.

When they arrived at the city of Jiangling, Mi Fang, Ma Liang, and the others were waiting at the city gate, all of them beaming with joy.

Guan Yu introduced Wang Yue to everyone, allowing Wang Yue to get to know the group.

After hearing Guan Yu's introduction, Ma Liang exclaimed to Wang Yue, "This must be Young Master Wang! He is indeed a handsome and talented man!"

Looking at the distinctive eyebrow mark, Wang Yue immediately recognized it as the legendary Ma Liang with his magic paintbrush. He bowed to Ma Liang and said...
"Greetings, Your Excellency!"

Ma Liang wasn't surprised that Wang Yue recognized him. He politely said to Wang Yue, "Because you don't remember your identity, I specially found a famous doctor to take a look at you. I wonder if Changwen is free?"

Wang Yue had already guessed this would be the outcome, so he calmly said, "Thank you, sir! I am willing to go!"

"this way please!"

Ma Liang immediately gestured for Wang Yue to proceed, and then walked towards the carriage beside him.

Wang Yue said goodbye to Guan Yinping and then calmly followed her.

Along the way, Ma Liang kept asking Wang Yue for his opinion on Guan Yu's war, and Wang Yue didn't hide anything and just told him directly.

The two chatted happily all the way and soon arrived at Ma Liang's residence. While they were waiting for the servants to serve tea, an old man came to the Ma residence.

Upon seeing this person, Ma Liang immediately stood up, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Divine Physician Hua!"

Wang Yue was also bowing in greeting, but when he heard Ma Liang call him Doctor Hua, he was a little confused.

Shouldn't Hua Tuo have died long ago?

How come it's still around now?
However, considering the many contradictions in history, Wang Yue couldn't say for sure whether it was true or false; perhaps Hua Tuo really was alive.

Seeing Wang Yue's respectful attitude, Hua Tuo smiled and said, "Please extend your left hand, Young Master Wang."

Wang Yue then calmly sat down and handed his hand to Hua Tuo. Hua Tuo took his pulse, his brows furrowing and relaxing at different times.

Ma Liang looked on with some doubt and asked uncertainly, "Mr. Hua, how is Changwen doing?"

Hua Tuo sighed and said, "This young master Wang has suffered great injuries, which has caused him to be somewhat deficient in qi and blood."

If it weren't for his strong vitality, he probably would have died long ago!

Ma Liang didn't expect that Wang Yue was really injured, which explains why he was pulled out of the river by the Third Miss.

Relieved, he frowned and asked, "But this young master Wang doesn't remember his identity. Is this due to his injuries?"
