Chapter 36: Battle in Formation
Dong Zhuo saw that Li Ru didn't know Luo Cheng's details, so he immediately patted the city wall anxiously.
Then turn back to Kanwai.
After Luo Cheng and Lu Bu were entangled again for dozens of rounds, Lu Bu was completely shocked because he found that Luo Cheng's martial arts were not under Qin Qiong.
After fighting with Luo Cheng for more than a hundred rounds, Lu Bu suddenly felt that he was showing signs of exhaustion, and as a last resort, Lu Bu had to force Luo Cheng back, and then said: "My mount is physically exhausted, wait for me to change horses to fight." ”
Luo Chengyin didn't know that Lu Bu's mount was a good horse for a thousand miles, so he immediately replied: "Okay, I don't want to take advantage of others. ”
Lu Bu followed and hurried back on horseback.
Seeing this scene, although Wang Kai didn't know the specific situation, Mingjin still withdrew his troops, after all, forcing Lu Bu back was a small victory.
After Luo Cheng heard the sound of Mingjin, although he still wanted to fight with Lu Bu again, after all, the military order was like a mountain, so he had to retreat on horseback.
And after Dong Zhuo saw that Lu Bu had withdrawn, he immediately ordered the gate to be opened and let Lu Bu and five hundred soldiers enter the gate.
After Lu Bu returned to the pass, he immediately went up to the city tower, and came to Dong Zhuo and knelt down on one knee, and then said: "Father-in-law, the child underestimated the enemy's carelessness, resulting in the defeat of our army in the first battle, and I hope that my father-in-law will punish him." ”
"Feng Xian, please hurry up, I also underestimated the strength of this Wang Kai, today Feng Xian will go back to rest for the time being."
"Father-in-law."
Lu Bu, who was a little tired, immediately went back to rest, after all, he had fought two first-class generals Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng in a row. Even as a super-first-class general, he must recuperate.
Seeing Lu Bu leaving, Dong Zhuo immediately asked Li Ru: "Wenyou, there are two fierce generals under Wang Kai's command, and it seems that there is no hope of winning the fighting generals, according to your opinion, what should I do?" ”
"Lord, Wang Kai not only has Qin Shubao and Luo Shixin two generals, but most of the soldiers under his command are the elite of the northern army brought out by Huangfu Song, according to the minister's opinion, we should not take the initiative to attack in Hangu Pass, if the troops are consumed here, the Kwantung princes will never let go of such a good opportunity, they will definitely be overwhelmed by a large army, and at that time, the lord will have no room for maneuver."
"Wenyou, what do you mean?"
"My lord, since this Hangu Pass in the west will not be able to make contributions in a short period of time, we can only seek to find a breakthrough in the Kwantung princes."
"Wen You, then didn't I come to this Hangu Pass for nothing."
"My lord, Wang Kai's army is strong, and it is really not appropriate to take it by force."
"Wen You, although what you said is not unreasonable, but if you return in vain, where is my face? Since the fighting general is no longer able to win, then wait for Feng to recover his strength first and then go out to face the battle. ”
Seeing that Dong Zhuo's mind had been decided, Li Ru knew that further persuasion had no effect, so he reluctantly agreed.
Early the next morning.
Lu Bu's physical strength had basically recovered.
Seeing this situation, Dong Zhuo immediately ordered the 40,000 troops under his command to go out of Hangu Pass and wait for the formation.
Hearing Dong Jun's horn, Wang Kai, who was in the camp, immediately asked Qin Qiong, Luo Cheng and Gai Xun to mobilize troops and horses.
After the army was assembled, Wang Kai immediately led his troops out of the camp and lined up outside the camp.
As the formation of the two armies was lined up, Dong Zhuo immediately took Lu Bu and Li Ru forward and walked a few steps.
Immediately after, Dong Zhuo shouted towards Wang Kai's military array: "I am Dong Zhuo, the prime minister of the dynasty, please ask Wang Kai, the general of Anxi, to come forward and answer." ”
After Wang Kai heard Dong Zhuo's shout, he immediately walked out with Luo Cheng, Qin Qiong and Gai Xun.
Then, Wang Kai replied: "I am Wang Kai, what does Dong Thief have to say." ”
Seeing that Wang Kai was so rude, Lu Bu immediately shouted angrily: "A bold fanatic, he dares to speak disrespectfully. ”
At this time, Luo Cheng replied: "The slaves of the three surnames are going to be rampant, and it was your prime minister who asked my lord to come out and answer." ”
Seeing that Luo Cheng was a slave with three surnames when he opened his mouth and closed his mouth, Lu Bu was suddenly extremely angry.
Seeing that Lu Bu was about to rush out, Dong Zhuo immediately waved his hand to let Lu Bu retreat.
Immediately after, Dong Zhuo smiled indifferently and said: "General Wang, you are the disciple of the famous general Huangfu Song, presumably you will be able to distinguish the loyal and traitorous ministers, now that your master has gone to Luoyang to serve, why don't General Wang follow your master to serve the court, if you raise troops and surrender, I can protect you as the general of the expedition to the west." ”
"Hahaha, Dong thief, you are not afraid to laugh off my big teeth, no one in the world knows that you Dong Zhuo is perverse, and you have already made the heavens angry and resentful, if it weren't for this, how would the Kwantung princes send troops to fight, I just obeyed the will of the people and raised troops, Dong thief should not waste his tongue anymore."
Seeing that Wang Kai was stubborn, Dong Zhuo suddenly shouted angrily: "Good Wang Kai Wang Xinhao, since you toast and don't eat and drink, then don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
"From now on, you are no longer the general Anxi of the imperial court, but a traitor who raised his army."
"Dong thief, do you think this will make me retreat? That's too underestimating me Wang Xinhao, if you want to fight, I will fight. ”
After Dong Zhuo heard this, he laughed angrily.
Then, Dong Zhuo shouted: "All the soldiers listen to the order and kill the traitor for me." ”
After receiving the order, Lu Bu immediately led a large army to rush towards Wang Kai's department and kill him.
Seeing Dong Zhuo ordering the charge, Wang Kai also raised his spear and shouted: "All the soldiers obey the order and follow me to hunt down and kill Dong Thief." ”
As soon as the words fell, Wang Kai rushed out first.
When the soldiers under his command saw that the commander was taking the lead, they immediately rushed out with high morale.
Lu Bu, who was leading the army to charge, saw that Wang Kai, who was the commander-in-chief, rushed over first, and he immediately thought to himself: "If Wang Kai is killed, his army will be defeated." ’
Thinking of this, Lu Bu immediately rode the red rabbit towards Wang Kai.
Seeing Lu Bu rushing towards him, Wang Kai knew that he would be sent to death if he went up, so he immediately shouted: "Shubao, Shixin, your opponent is here." ”
Hearing Wang Kai's shout, Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng, who were not far behind him, immediately accelerated to overtake Wang Kai and rushed towards Lu Bu.
Seeing Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng charging in pairs, Lu Bu suddenly cheered up, because he had to go all out just to face one of them.
When Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng approached Lu Bu, Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng each brandished their spears and stabbed at Lu Bu.
Seeing this, Lu Bu immediately brandished Fang Tian's halberd and attacked Qin Qiong's life, completely ignoring Luo Cheng's attack.
When Qin Qiong saw Lu Bu attacking, he immediately grabbed a block.
After Lu Bu's Fang Tian Painting Halberd hit Qin Qiong's spear, he took advantage of the situation to sweep Fang Tian's Painting Halberd towards Luo Cheng.
In the face of Lu Bu's move, if Luo Cheng insisted on attacking Lu Bu, he himself would definitely end up with a tragic death.
In order to prevent such a thing from happening, Luo Cheng immediately put away his gun and blocked it.
After forcing Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng to withdraw their attacks with one move, Lu Bu began to deal with the combined attack of Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng with all his might.
Just when Lu Bu was fighting with Qin Qiong and Luo Zhuo, Wang Kai also led the soldiers to fight fiercely with the Xiliang Army under Dong Zhuo.
Because the officers and men of both armies were elite divisions, their battles were quite tragic.
Although Wang Kai felt sorry for these soldiers after seeing this, he could only continue to fight, after all, once defeated, the losses caused were immeasurable.
And although Dong Zhuo was also very distressed when he saw this, he had a strong army in his hands after all.
