Chapter 1289

"Yes, doing this is too dangerous, and we have no way at all."

"Yes."

"General, shouldn't we retreat?"

Hearing the soldiers' advice, Guan Yu's expression became uncertain.

Gu Yi had already brought his army to deal with Cao Hong; if he retreated, they might also suffer.

"General, retreat."

"We are still young; do not lose our lives for a single city. If we have the chance to return to Yanzhou, the General's power will surely be more consolidated."

Hearing the soldiers around Guan Yu advising him, Guan Yu fell into a dilemma.

"Retreat!"

Finally, Guan Yu gritted his teeth and chose to retreat.

Guan Yu also knew that if they continued to persist, they would be completely wiped out.

Guan Yu led his troops and began to retreat.

Meanwhile, Gu Yi led a large number of soldiers to surround and suppress Cao Hong's soldiers below the city.

Watching the corpses of his soldiers falling at his feet, Gu Yi's mouth curled into a cold sneer.

"Cao Hong, your soldiers are almost dead now. Why don't you surrender quickly and wait for death to arrive?"

After finishing, a triumphant expression appeared on his face.

He knew Cao Hong would surely surrender.

Sure enough, this Cao Hong was truly a bit cowardly, and he couldn't help but shrink back.

Seeing Cao Hong's actions, a triumphant expression appeared in Gu Yi's eyes.

Just at this moment, his ears suddenly twitched.

"Not good!" Gu Yi felt a sense of foreboding in his heart.

He discovered that several soldiers were surrounding him from his surroundings.

Seeing such a scene, Gu Yi shouted immediately: "Run quickly!"

Immediately, he turned and ran toward the city.

"General, you cannot leave. If you leave, we will be finished," the soldier said quickly.

"I know. I will lead you to retreat safely," Guan Yu roared, gritting his teeth. "Retreat!"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers followed Guan Yu's footsteps and began to retreat.

Cao Hong also discovered Guan Yu's whereabouts, a cold sneer appearing on his face, and then he said: "Want to run? No way!"

After finishing, Cao Hong led his soldiers and began to pursue.

"Guan Yu, you cannot escape. Stop right there!"

Cao Hong rode on his warhorse and shouted loudly.

Guan Yu heard Cao Hong's words, and a cold sneer appeared on his face.

"I said, today, I will kill you."

After finishing, his legs clamped tightly onto the warhorse, and the warhorse charged forward like a madman.

"Pursue!"

Seeing this, Cao Hong also roared.

His soldiers pursued Guan Yu one after another.

"Guan Yu, today, you are dead." Cao Hong gritted his teeth and said.

"Then try it. I'd like to see what kind of strength you really have," Guan Yu snorted coldly.

Immediately, the two armies engaged in battle.

Meanwhile, on the city wall.

"General Gu, the enemy troops have begun to retreat to the rear."

"Hmm, I see it." Gu Yi nodded and said.

"Should we intercept the enemy troops?" the adjutant asked.

Hearing this, Gu Yi's brows knitted slightly, and then he shook his head, saying: "No need. We will continue to guard the city. Once Cao Cao's army arrives, we will leave the city to deal with them."

"Yes, General Gu." The adjutant bowed and said.

"By the way, send scouts to gather intelligence on Cao Hong. If Cao Hong makes any unusual moves, notify me immediately," Gu Yi ordered the adjutant.

"General, I understand." The adjutant nodded.

At this moment, Cao Hong was rapidly pursuing Guan Yu.

But Guan Yu's warhorse was very fast, and Cao Hong could only follow Guan Yu's footsteps.

"Damn it, damn it, you actually dare to toy with me. I will absolutely not spare you!"

Seeing Guan Yu toying with him like this, Cao Hong's heart was also very angry.

He used all his strength and ran frantically toward Guan Yu.

He wanted to completely behead Guan Yu; otherwise, he couldn't swallow this anger.

"Guan Yu, today is your doomsday!"

"Is that so? Then let's see whose doomsday is more miserable," Guan Yu sneered.

"I'd like to see what your so-called doomsday looks like."

After finishing, he also charged toward Cao Hong.

Seeing such a situation, Cao Hong's heart also showed a look of surprise.

"Are you all dead?"

"Kill!"

The roar of soldiers came from behind Cao Hong.

A triumphant smile appeared on Guan Yu's face, and immediately he charged toward Cao Hong.

The two charged toward each other frantically.

Although Cao Hong was skilled in martial arts, he was not good at close combat. ===== CHAPTER 1290 =====

Although Cao Hong is highly skilled in martial arts, he is not adept at close-quarters combat.
