Wang Fangyi had always said that he wanted to lead troops into battle alone, and this time Liu Wei gave him a chance to prove himself!
The 500 Guan Ning cavalry and 100 guards, though few in number, possessed extraordinary combat power.
Although Dai County and Shanggu County were occupied by the rebels, their main force was sent to Guangyang County to besiege Ji County, so the number of troops left to defend the area should not be large.
Liu Wei ordered them to break through two counties, which was actually a surprise attack on the rebels, like a black tiger tearing out the heart, cutting off their retreat!
In addition, the Embroidered Uniform Guard also sent the latest news: Yao Guangxiao, who was far away in the Hetao region, appointed Li Su as the commander-in-chief and Liu Du as the deputy commander-in-chief, leading an eastern expeditionary force of 6,000 men, consisting of 1,300 battalions, 2,000 Doyan guards, and 3,000 archers, to march eastward along the southern foothills of Yinshan Mountain, cross the Yehu Ridge, and enter Dai County to join forces with Liu Wei!
Xue Rengui, Chen Ji, and Chen Qun were stationed to manage and control the Western Regions, defending against Parthia west of the Pamir Mountains and the Northern Xiongnu and Kangju north of the Tianshan Mountains.
Di Qing, Li Siye, and Geng Chun guarded the three counties of Hexi and Juyan Sea, defended against the Tuoba Xianbei in the north, and protected against Ding Yuan, Lü Bu, and Ma Teng of Liangzhou in the east!

As for the three prefectures of Hetao, they were handed over to Zhang Xun, the governor of Yunzhong.
Cai Yong, Wei Ji, and others were all civil officials, so Yao Guangxiao could only send Li Su, the former governor of Shuofang, and Liu Du, the governor of Wuyuan, to lead troops to Youzhou.
Originally, Liu Du's tribe had lived in Yehuling, and Li Su's home was also near Daihai.
These two men were very familiar with the terrain in this area.
In fact, he is a very suitable candidate to lead the troops.
Upon hearing Liu Wei's instructions, everyone's expression tightened.
Liu Wei is trying to trap the more than 200,000 enemy troops in Guangyang County south of Yanshan!
Everyone present received a task, even Liu Bei, who was punished and injured, had something to do.
This made Guan Yu, who had been summoned to the meeting, somewhat embarrassed.
He looked at Liu Wei, seemingly wanting to say something but then hesitated.
If the three brothers cannot kill the enemy and make merit in this great battle, what is the point of recruiting so many people and letting Qian Zhao and Tian Chou join them?
Just then, Liu Wei shouted:
Where is Guan Yu?
