關羽水淹七軍後，威名震動天下。
曹魏諸將聞其名無不戒備，百姓更盛傳關雲長有萬夫莫敵之勇。然而，連日征戰之下，昔日龐德射中的箭傷卻逐漸惡化，左臂時常疼痛難忍。
正當眾將憂心之際，一位名醫來到軍營。
此人正是神醫華佗。
華佗細察傷勢後，神色凝重地說：「箭毒已深入骨中，若不刮骨去毒，日後此臂恐難保全。」
眾將聽後無不變色。
然而關羽只是微微一笑。
「區區小傷，何足掛齒？」
華佗準備利刀，命人設席。
眾人以為關羽必須服藥麻醉，華佗卻說，麻沸散未必適合此時情況，只能直接施術。
刀鋒劃開傷口，直入骨面。
只見華佗細細刮去附著骨上的毒素，聲音清晰可聞。
營中眾將無不心驚。
關羽卻神色自若，一邊與馬良對弈，一邊與諸將談笑風生，彷彿毫無痛楚。
直到毒骨清除完畢，鮮血滿盆，他依舊談笑如常。
華佗不禁讚嘆。
「真乃神人也！」
自此，「刮骨療毒」成為千古傳頌的典故，也讓天下更加敬服關羽的膽識。
然而，關羽並不知道，一場更大的危機正悄悄逼近。
江東。
孫權始終對荊州念念不忘。
過去多次索還荊州未果，如今關羽率主力北伐，城中兵力空虛，正是奪回荊州的最佳時機。
孫權秘密召見呂蒙。
呂蒙雖然身體抱恙，卻早已籌劃多年。
他向孫權獻上一策。
「臣願稱病退居後方，使關羽誤以為江東再無能戰之將，再暗中率軍奇襲荊州。」
孫權大喜，立即准奏。
消息很快傳到荊州。
關羽聽聞呂蒙病重，又由年輕將領陸遜接替防務，心中不禁輕視。
陸遜多次遣使送來書信，言辭極為謙恭，處處稱讚關羽神威，表示東吳絕無侵犯荊州之意。
關羽閱信後哈哈大笑。
「江東小兒，不足為慮！」
於是，他更加放心地將兵力集中於樊城戰場。
殊不知，這正是呂蒙與陸遜共同布下的迷局。
不久之後，呂蒙率領精兵悄然出發。
所有戰船上的士兵都換上白色商旅服裝，偽裝成商人與百姓，船隊沿江而下。
沿途蜀軍烽火台見來者皆是平民商船，毫無戒心，竟未發出任何警報。
待船隊靠近公安、南郡等地時，東吳士兵忽然脫去白衣，取出兵器。
一聲令下，四面齊發。
蜀軍守將措手不及，城門相繼失守。
許多將領尚未來得及集結兵馬，荊州重鎮便已一座座落入東吳之手。
更重要的是，呂蒙進城後嚴令三軍不得擾民。
凡百姓住宅，一律不得侵占；凡蜀軍家屬，一律妥善照顧。
他還親自探望將士家眷，發放糧食衣物。
百姓見東吳軍紀嚴明，不僅沒有恐懼，反而逐漸安心。
許多原本效忠蜀漢的軍士，得知家人平安無事，也漸漸失去抵抗之心。
前線的關羽仍在圍攻樊城。
忽然，探馬飛奔而至。
「報——荊州告急！」
關羽聞言神情一震。
他萬萬沒有想到，自己威震華夏之時，後方竟已陷入危局。
這場精心策劃的白衣渡江，不僅改變了荊州的命運，也改寫了整個三國天下的格局。
而屬於關羽最艱難的時刻，才正要開始。
English Version
After flooding Wei’s seven armies, Guan Yu stood at the peak of his military reputation. Across the empire, his name inspired both admiration and fear.
Yet beneath the glory, an old wound continued to trouble him.
The arrow fired by Pang De had left poison deep within his arm. The pain worsened each day until the famous physician Hua Tuo arrived at Guan Yu’s camp.
After examining the injury, Hua Tuo delivered troubling news.
The poison had reached the bone.
Only a dangerous operation could save the arm.
Without hesitation, Guan Yu accepted.
As Hua Tuo cut open the flesh and scraped poison directly from the bone, officers surrounding the tent could barely endure the horrifying sound. Many turned away in disbelief.
Guan Yu, however, remained perfectly composed.
He calmly played a game of Go, discussed military affairs with his officers, and laughed throughout the operation as though nothing unusual were happening.
When the treatment was finished, Hua Tuo could only admire the general’s extraordinary courage.
The legendary story of “scraping poison from the bone” would become one of the most famous episodes associated with Guan Yu.
While Shu celebrated its greatest hero, another plan was unfolding in the east.
Sun Quan had never abandoned his desire to recover Jing Province.
Learning that Guan Yu had taken most of his army north, he summoned Lü Meng to discuss a decisive campaign.
Lü Meng proposed an ingenious deception.
He publicly pretended to be seriously ill and withdrew from active command, allowing the young Lu Xun to replace him. Guan Yu received reports that Lü Meng could no longer fight and concluded that Eastern Wu no longer possessed a capable commander.
Lu Xun reinforced this illusion by sending humble letters praising Guan Yu’s unmatched achievements and expressing complete friendship between Shu and Wu.
Satisfied by these messages, Guan Yu concentrated even more troops at the northern front.
The trap had worked.
Hidden from public view, Lü Meng gathered elite soldiers aboard river vessels.
Every warrior wore ordinary white civilian clothing, disguising the fleet as harmless merchant boats travelling along the Yangtze River.
Shu’s watchtowers saw nothing suspicious.
No warning fires were lit.
Once the fleet approached the major cities of Jing Province, the disguise disappeared in an instant.
The white garments fell away.
Weapons emerged.
Wu’s soldiers stormed ashore with overwhelming speed.
Fortresses that had stood secure for years fell one after another before organized resistance could form.
Lü Meng then demonstrated remarkable discipline.
He strictly forbade looting, protected civilians, and ordered respectful treatment of the families of Shu’s soldiers.
His humane policies quickly won public support, weakening the willingness of many defenders to continue fighting.
Far away, Guan Yu remained focused on Fancheng.
Then urgent messengers finally arrived.
“Jing Province is under attack!”
The victorious general stood speechless.
At the very moment his fame had reached every corner of China, the foundation of Shu’s power in the south had already begun to collapse.
Lü Meng’s White-Clad Crossing would soon become one of the greatest strategic deceptions in military history—and the beginning of Guan Yu’s tragic final campaign.
