Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Storm Rises
When they saw Lu Bu under the gate, a strong coldness flashed in the eyes of Li Dao and the others.
"Traitorous general, do you still have the face to see me?"
"Back then, Xiangguo gave you a red rabbit horse to gallop on the battlefield, and he rewarded you with continuous grace, and even accepted you as a righteous son.
Xiangguo was confused for a while, and failed to see your wolf ambitions, and today you are going to attack Xiangguo.
The crow still has the heart to repay the milk, not only betrayed the lord and murdered his father-in-law, but such an act makes people and gods angry, is your heart more vicious than a snake and scorpion?" Li Wei asked coldly.
"Lu Bu, are you here to send you to death?" Li Dao drank fiercely, surrounded by murderous intent.
"Do you know why Ben Jiang made a false deal with you in the first place, joined the traitor Dong Zhuo, and cut off my father's head with his own hands?" Lu Bu's eyes projected infinite anger and said loudly.
"Naturally, you are greedy by nature, love vanity, for your own glory and wealth, ignore family affection, kill your father for glory, who in the world does not know?" Li Dao shouted angrily, not giving Lu Bu half of face at all.
"At that time, the country was unfortunate, and the eunuchs seized power, so that the people were miserable. Dong Zhuo, an old thief, did not think about helping the community and saving the Han, but instead had the heart of rebellion, set up the Son of Heaven, and caused chaos in the world.
My father Ding Yuan repaid the kindness of the Han family, and did not hesitate to sacrifice himself, and wrote a suicide note ordering me to cut off his head with my own hands, the purpose was to get close to Dong Zhuo, so as to wait for time and help the Han, and now I have done it.
Dong Zhuo has been personally killed by His Majesty, and the culprit has already fallen into the legal net, if you still don't want to repent and try to confront Your Majesty by force, your heart can be punished.
You and other relatives will not be able to escape the law, and they will be punished by the nine clans. Lu Bu exerted all his strength and shouted angrily, and his voice spread throughout the inside and outside of Hangu Pass, shocking everyone.
"Nonsense, Lord Xiangguo has no time to go, so it is possible to pass away?"
"Lu Bu, I didn't expect you to be so despicable. Spreading rumors, in fact, I want to make my army upset, and all the officers and soldiers should not believe the words of such a treacherous villain as Lu Bu. ”
"All the archers obey the order, shoot this fang for me, and whoever kills it will be rewarded with a hundred gold, and the official will be a centurion!"
Li Dao smiled coldly, made a move with his hand, and gave a cold order.
"Kill!"
Hearing such a rich reward, the archers on the city wall, who had already drawn their bows and Xuan, suddenly let go.
Whoa!
Hundreds of arrows, one after another with the sound of breaking through the sky, formed a circle of arrow rain, and shot mercilessly towards Lu Bu, who was three feet away from the city wall.
"Today, I will come here just to remind you that if Ruoer and others still choose to help the abuse, they are willing to make trouble for the traitors, and when the city is broken, it will be when you will be destroyed, and the nine clans will be buried together. ”
Lu Bu looked at the rain of arrows sprinkled all over the sky, and there was no panic on his face.
The right hand lifted the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand and swung it, slashing back and forth in the air, the Dao halberd flashed, and under the collision of the halberd, it clanged, and all the arrows that were close to Lu Bu's body were directly swinged.
The rain of arrows and arrows could not break through Lu Bu's defenses at all. The broken bow and arrows were scattered all over the place, while Lu Bu half-blocked and half-retreated, and rode his horse back to his own position.
Lu Bu was a major hero in the Three Kingdoms period, known as "the red rabbit in the horse, and Lu Bu in the people". He and his mount, the Red Rabbit Horse, were both stars in the hearts of people in that changing era, and their strength should not be underestimated.
At a distance of 100 meters, it was impossible to take his life with the advantage of a bow and arrow, unless ten thousand arrows were fired at once, and there was no way to avoid it.
"Lu Bu's bravery, no one in the world is terrifying, and the high-level combat power of the mortal is really extraordinary. Liu Xie looked at Lu Bu's majestic posture and couldn't help but think.
"Your Majesty, as the military advisor said. The defenders in the city planned to use Hangu Pass as a turtle shell, but they couldn't defend it, so it seemed that they still had to implement it according to the military division's plan to attack the heart. Lu Bu's gaze was fixed on Hangu Pass, and then said.
"Huangfu Song. Liu Xie stared at Hanguguan and shouted in a low voice.
"The minister is here!" Huangfu Song immediately received the order, turned around, and shouted to the crossbowmen under his command: "The heavy infantry is in front, cover the crossbowmen to advance forty meters in front of the city." ”
The generals passed down the order, and in an instant, the 10,000 soldiers who were originally immersed in solemnity suddenly moved, in vain, the soldiers holding shields and swords were in front, and the crossbowmen were behind, and the army was rushing forward rigorously, with morale like a rainbow and a murderous aura.
Stomp, stomp!
As the soldiers in the crossbow army array surged together, the earth-shattering sound of footsteps spread throughout hundreds of miles of heaven and earth, and the military appearance was mighty and powerful.
"Everyone prepare, defend with all your might, no one can be allowed to climb the city wall, violators, beheaded, punished the nine clans!"
When he saw the thunderous movements of countless armies thousands of kilometers away, and felt the power of crushing the sky, Hangu Guan, up to Li Dao, down to the lowest-ranking soldiers, all looked terrified, and the big hands holding weapons were trembling slightly.
"Mr. Jia is right, if under such an offensive, Hangu Pass will definitely not be able to hold. And Zhang Ji, who was standing on the city wall, felt the scene of the army in front of the pass crushing everything, his face was also terrified, and at the same time he was secretly glad that he believed Jia Xu's words.
"Mr. Jia said that the imperial army would not attack immediately, but...".
"Hey, I hope Mr. Jia's expectations are good, otherwise, it won't be good if I can't serve the Son of Heaven before I can be destroyed. Regarding the scene of the soldiers and horses rushing to the close, Zhang Ji had no choice but to look forward to it secretly.
10,000 soldiers quickly approached the Hangu Pass.
When the distance was less than 100 meters, it was also within the range of the crossbowmen on the castle tower.
"Archer prepare!"
Li Dao and other Dong Zhuo's remnant generals had shocked expressions, and they held on to their hearts that were shocked by the imperial army, and gave orders hard.
"Yes!"
On the city walls, thousands of archers were ready, but their facial expressions were extremely nervous, and even their main generals were frightened, let alone them.
When the imperial army rushed in and crushed to seventy meters away, Li Wei's frowning brows suddenly flashed with evil energy, and he slashed the sword in his hand and shouted: "Release the arrow!"
However, the heavy infantry that rushed up was not vegetarian either.
"Royal!"
The heavy infantry general Hou Cheng gave an order.
Four thousand heavy infantry, armed with huge shields, were erected from the first column to form a tight shield defensive formation, surrounding the six thousand crossbowmen and protecting them in the shield formation.
I only heard arrows falling from the sky, and the fierce cold light emitted a chilling silver light under the sunlight.
Like a storm, the arrows smashed into the defensive formation of the heavy infantry almost frantically, but because of the extremely tight defensive formation, only a few arrows injured the soldiers.
"Stop, stop!"
