Chapter Eighty-Four: The Capture of the Ore Vein
In the quiet mountain forest, Lu Bu and his party marched towards the obsidian vein thirty miles away. This time, Lu Bu brought 2,000 men, and after capturing this vein, these 2,000 men were to stay here and build a military fortress to protect this obsidian vein.
These two thousand men were all elite troops led by Lu Bu, two hundred Yunzhou iron cavalry, three hundred heavy iron cavalry, five hundred heavy armored infantry, and one thousand regular infantry and archers. After the vein was captured and the garrison was secured, LΓΌ Bu planned to send his men over to mine the ore and sell it on a large scale.
At noon, Lu Bu led two thousand men to the place of the obsidian vein. With a big move, Lu Bu motioned for everyone to stop, and then he checked the location of the Xia Nationality camp first, only to see that at both ends of the vein, there were actually two camps guarded, but the flags on the two camps were very different.
"Lord Lu Bu, it seems that these two camps are not the same tribe. Zhang Wenfeng lay beside Lu Bu and said in a low voice.
In the nomadic people, even if it is the same clan, there are often many tribes inside, although in the face of foreign tribes, they work together, but internally, it is also intriguing, and no one obeys anyone. Unless there is a respectable person who unites the tribes, they are fighting on their own.
"So, in that case, I have an interesting idea. The corners of Lu Bu's mouth showed a strange and sharp smile, and then asked Zhang Wenfeng to stand still, tonight, just watch.
The red sun gradually came to an end, and the deep blue night fell.
It was very windy tonight, and everyone was ambushed in a hidden place, quietly watching Lu Bu ride the red shadow and quietly head towards one of the camps.
In terms of the scale of these two camps, each camp should be around 20,000 people. Zhang Wenfeng didn't understand, Lu Bu rushed over so straightforwardly, was he really so confident in his own force?
"Listen to the order, be ready to answer at any time!" Zhang Wenfeng ordered the soldiers behind him.
The night grew darker, the wind tightened, the clouds surged, and the moonlight appeared and disappeared. At this moment, Lu Bu could already hear the sound of laughing and drinking in the camp.
Knocking lightly on the horse's belly, in an instant, Lu Bu directly entered the camp with one person and one horse. In the night, the orange rays were shining, the flames were soaring, and Lu Bu attacked all the way, like an orange sword, straight into the heart of the camp. It didn't take long for Lu Bu to kill the main general's camp.
"Sla", the main general's tent was cut through a huge opening, Lu Bu rode a war horse, covered with blood, orange mang, like a Shura demon from hell, he looked at the enemy commander indifferently, and then the halberd in his hand, he took the head of the main general in his hand, and then quickly tied the rope to the horse, turned the horse's head, and killed it from the inside.
A hundred meters away, Zhang Wenfeng and his subordinates lay on a dirt slope, quietly watching all this. When Lu Bu went in alone, he also pinched the sweat for Lu Bu, but he didn't expect to kill it so quickly. Then, he watched Lu Bu turn around and kill into another camp. In an instant, the camp over there was stirred up again.
"Who are you?" asked the Qiang people timidly, facing a bloodthirsty Shura, a monstrous and murderous Lu Bu, it was difficult for anyone not to be afraid.
Lu Bu didn't answer, but went straight to the main general's tent, and all those who stood in the way were swept out by his Fang Tian painting halberd.
After a while, a huge hole was cut in the camp tent of the main general, and a head flew in, and the main general was startled, and just wanted to check, an orange light had already attacked, and then, he felt that the sky was spinning, and then he knew nothing.
Lu Bu indifferently put away the head, and then turned around to kill. At this moment, the entire camp was in chaos, and at the same time, people from another camp were also chasing and killing. Lu Bu smiled indifferently, and threw the head of the camp master in his hand from afar, and threw it straight into the crowd of those people who were chasing and killing.
"My mission is accomplished. Lu Bu stood in a dark corner, waiting for the show to begin. After a while, the people of the two camps, when they saw the head of their main general in the opposite hand, shouted the slogan of avenging the main general, and couldn't help but say that they were fighting.
It was a sleepless night, not only for the nomads in the two camps, but also for Zhang Wenfeng and the two thousand elites he brought.
"It's amazing, it's incredible!" Zhang Wenfeng, who witnessed all this, was shocked beyond words: "With the power of one, he broke into the two camps, threw the head of the main general into the opponent's army, and caused the two villages to kill each other. This is not only about force, but also about the art of war. β
At this moment, Zhang Wenfeng was completely convinced, and his evaluation of Lu Bu in his heart was only three words: "Not a person." β
I don't know how long the fight lasted, but as the blood-red sun slowly rose, the nomads in these two camps were already dead. However, at this moment, Lu Bu's figure appeared among these remnants of the defeated soldiers, and Lu Bu, who was blood-red, was full of evil qi and blood-red eyes at the moment, and he really looked like a hellish Shura.
He showed no mercy to his men, just as these nomads did when they slaughtered the city. The orange light mixed with the red flames was like the scythe of death that harvested life, and everywhere it went, not a single grass grew.
When the red sun fully rose, the two camps had come to an end. With the exception of a few who fled, all the nomads, without exception, were killed in battle.
"From now on, this will be my territory!" Lu Bu picked up a lighted torch and threw it on top of the tent. In an instant, the fire spread, and in a short time, the entire camp was ablaze.
In the distance, looking at the raging fires that had been lit in the two camps, Zhang Wenfeng's heart was already shocked. One person, 40,000 people in two camps, was almost completely wiped out. What a terrifying record and strength this is, this is Lu Bu among people, a ghost-like man.
"I can't even beat the horse!" Zhang Wenfeng sighed, at this moment, his inner admiration for Lu Bu has completely risen to the point of fanaticism, not only him, but also the two thousand elite soldiers. Without seeing it with your own eyes, it is impossible to believe that a person can exaggerate to such an extent.
"Next, it's time to make good money. β
In the flames, Lu Bu's words echoed.
Next to the camp with thick smoke billowing out, a pretty figure stood on a pillar, dressed in tight black, outlining her figure well, a long ponytail, reaching to her waist, although her face was covered by a black cloth, but it could still be seen that her appearance was very gorgeous.
"Unexpectedly, that person can sweep away all the area with the power of one person, what a monster. Has Lu Bu, who killed the seven-colored unicorn in the past, grown to this point?" The woman looked coldly at Lu Bu's figure in the distance, and said secretly: "However, if we can win him over, then our Qi clan will definitely be able to become the strongest in the north, and even dominate the entire north." Moreover, that guy was born so tall and burly, and he was handsome, I guess the queen must love it very much. β
Suddenly, the woman dodged and disappeared from the pillar, as if no one had been there since the beginning.
Next to the obsidian vein, Zhang Wenfeng commanded the soldiers to build the camp in an orderly manner, and soon, a strong camp was built. The camp, built directly in the low-lying area between the two high mountains, was quite a choke on the main passage to the vein, not only more than enough to defend, but also enough space to retreat.
"Zhang Wenfeng, you are stationed here to guard. Lu Bu is very satisfied with this camp, although Zhang Wenfeng is young, he is already a rare general.
"Obey!" Zhang Wenfeng responded energetically.
"Next, let Chen Wentai arrange people to come here to dig obsidian. Lu Bu rode the red shadow and quickly walked towards Shangyuan City.
The development of Shangyuan City is proceeding in an orderly manner, and under the call of Chen Wentai, everyone has devoted themselves to large-scale production. For a time, the barren farmland, roads, and obsidian veins around Uehara Castle were all a busy scene.
The development of Uehara City was slowly unfolding, and in order to ensure the safety of the Black Yao Ore Vein, Lu Bu also personally devoted himself to the mining of obsidian. With the addition of Lu Bu, the motivation of the workers has increased exponentially.
Just kidding, even the Taishou of a city does coolies himself, and what reason does anyone else have not to work hard.
Lu Bu, who was working, stripped his upper body, revealing his bronzed and well-developed muscles, and his perfect lines really revealed a kind of male masculine beauty.
wiped the sweat from his forehead, and suddenly, a bowl of water was handed to Lu Bu, Lu Bu was stunned, took the bowl with his hand, and drank it cleanly. Then he wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "Thank you." β
"You're welcome. A soft voice came, and it was a wonderful sound. Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, then raised his head, and then realized that the person who delivered the water turned out to be a delicate and beautiful girl.
The warm sunshine reflected the girl's delicate face, her lips biting lightly, and she was dressed in a lilac dress, revealing an indescribable elegance and sweetness.
Lu Bu couldn't help but look at it, the girl in front of her looked about twenty years old, gentle and elegant, beautiful and incomparable, although it was not a country and a city, but she also had a unique beauty and temperament.
"Hey, when are you going to see it?" the girl's face turned red, and she glanced at Lu Bu with disgust.
"Oh, sorry, rude. Lu Bu smiled a little awkwardly and said, "May I ask who you are?"
The girl took out a letter of introduction and said, "Let me introduce myself, my name is Ling Qin, and I am Ling Feng's sister." β
"Ling Qin?" Lu Bu opened the letter of introduction in surprise, quickly read the content on it, frowned, and then looked at Ling Qin again, and asked, "Come to me for training?"
"Yes, my master is out of the Fengyun Society, and I just got promoted to an elite disciple this year, so I decided to come to you for training. Ling Qin said with a smile.
"I don't think I have anything to experience!" Lu Bu said as he glanced at the workers who were working in full swing.
"Sympathizing with the people's feelings, exterminating the bandits, and fighting against the Qiang tribe are all things that can be experienced. Just as Ling Feng commanded the three armies, and I should not be limited to the improvement of my own strength. Ling Qin said eloquently.
Lu Bu thought about it, and it seemed to make sense.
"So Ling Yunzhi specially wrote a letter of introduction for you to come to me for training?"
"Exactly. Ling Qin smiled slightly and said, "So I also ask Lord Lu Bu to bear with me." β
