Chapter 133: Qin Hua Dispatches Troops

Lü Bu's surprise attack greatly disrupted Cao Cao's plan, and made him burst into the first wind, and the momentum of Cao's army was blocked.

At this time, Qin Hua's army was also completed and was ready to go to Xuzhou.

Of course, Qin Hua's trip was to take advantage of the fisherman's profits, and when the two armies were fighting each other and suffered heavy casualties, he gave Cao Cao and Lu Bu a heavy blow.

However, what Qin Hua didn't expect was that Cao Cao actually recovered in a very short period of time when he suffered such a major setback.

With the help of Xuzhou Chen Gui and Chen Deng's father and son, they took Xuzhou City in one fell swoop and captured 20,000 troops in the city.

Although Lu Bu wiped out Cao Ren's 40,000 troops in one fell swoop, he now lost his hometown.

Fortunately, Lu Bu's family was not in Xuzhou, so he immediately led his troops to Xiapi and prepared to hold on to Xiapi.

However, when Lü Bu had just arrived in Xiapi, Cao's army also followed and surrounded Xiapi.

After learning that Xuzhou had changed hands, Lu Bujun's heart was also greatly shaken, and many soldiers fled, and now there are less than 50,000 soldiers in Xiapi City.

Cao Cao attacked the city repeatedly with anger, although Xiapi was also a big city, but its internal garrison was not as sufficient as Lu City, and Cao's army boarded the city wall many times.

Fortunately, Lu Bu personally climbed the city wall to kill the enemy, so that the morale of Lu Bu's army did not fall into a trough, and he barely held off the attack of Cao's army.

"General, if you defend it for a long time, you will lose, please ask the general to break through."

Hou Cheng saw that Cao's army was powerful and had the intention of surrendering, but he didn't want to turn his back on Lu Bu, so he wanted to persuade Lu Bu to break through.

"Breakout? Where else can I go? ”

Lu Bu was a little depressed, he had been on the battlefield for more than ten years, and in order to sew the enemy, why was it difficult to get even a place to live?

"Gather all the cavalry tomorrow, I will attack the Cao army's main formation and kill Cao Cao's old thief with my own hands."

Suddenly, Lu Bu slammed the wine glass in his hand to the ground and said through gritted teeth.

"General."

Hou Cheng didn't expect Lu Bu to have such a crazy idea, what is the difference between this and sending him to death.

"Yes."

Although he thought so, Hou Cheng still agreed on the surface and left.

But he had other thoughts in his heart, after leaving Lu Bu, Hou Cheng did not go to mobilize cavalry as Lu Bu ordered, but went to find Cao Xing.

Hou Cheng had already known that Cao Xing had been punished by Lu Bu for violating military orders before, and he was resentful after he had been punished by Lu Bu for violating military orders before, and this time he even mentioned to his cronies that he wanted to surrender to Cao Cao, so Hou Chengcheng wanted to capture Lu Bu together with Cao Xing, so as to ask Cao Cao for credit.

This night, Cao's army did not attack the city again, it seemed that Cao Cao had a foul of the wind, and Lu Bu almost had a few drinks.

In the middle of the night, Lu Bu was already drunk, and the attendants didn't dare to disturb him, so they left the room one after another.

But as soon as they went out, they were covered in their mouths and stabbed in the neck.

"General Cao, Lu Bu is already drunk, let's go in directly..."

Saying that, Hou Cheng made a movement to wipe his neck, but Cao Xuan was a little hesitant.

Although he resented Lu Bu, after all, he was the lord he had followed for many years, and he really couldn't bear to do it.

Hou Cheng was worried that Lu Bu hadn't really fallen asleep, so he didn't dare to rush in, so he could only continue to urge Cao Xing.

"Let's tie up Lu Bu and hand it over to Cao Gong."

In the end, Cao Xing still couldn't bear to kill Lu Bu, so he suggested to Hou Cheng.

"That's fine, General Cao, act quickly."

Hou Cheng didn't care that Cao Xing was preparing to dispose of Lu Bu, he just wanted to save his life now.

Just as Cao Xuan and the others rushed into Lu Bu's room with their troops, they suddenly found that Lu Bu was sitting on his seat with Fang Tian's halberd in his hand.

"You..."

Cao Xuan couldn't believe his eyes, when he peeked from the outside just now, Lu Bu was obviously drunk, why did he suddenly sober up again.

"Hello."

Saying that, Lu Bu stood up from his seat, and everyone, including Cao Xing, unconsciously took a step back.

"I don't treat you well, why do you want to betray me."

Lu Bu Fang Tian pointed at the halberd and shouted loudly, seeing Lu Bu so imposing, everyone couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Don't be afraid, he's only one man."

Hou Cheng saw that the matter was revealed, but it was difficult to turn back at this time, and immediately inspired others.

"General Hou's words are wrong."

At this moment, a voice sounded in the courtyard, and it was none other than Chen Gong, who had rarely appeared recently.

With the appearance of Chen Gong, countless soldiers immediately appeared in the courtyard, and even the roof was full of archers.

"Come on, take these people down, and dispose of them after tomorrow."

Lu Bu did not kill Hou Cheng and the others immediately, but imprisoned them first.

If it was a normal time, he would definitely kill these people who wanted to kill him, but now that his future is uncertain, he can't bear to kill them again.

"If tomorrow I can prevail, I will deal with you again, if... Flee for yourselves. ”

After speaking, Lu Bu waved his hand and motioned to take them down.

"General... General..."

Hou Cheng suddenly regretted it at this time, he saw Lu Bu's gloomy expression, and suddenly remembered that Lu Bu had saved him many times.

"Take it down."

Lu Bu didn't want to listen to Hou Cheng's words anymore, and waved his hand to signal everyone to retreat.

Only Chen Gong remained.

"Will he really come back tomorrow?"

"The soldiers and horses are already hundreds of miles away, and he said that as long as we attack Cao Cao's formation and can break up Cao's army, their army will come."

After Chen Gong was seized from Xuzhou City, he did not follow Lu Bu to Xiapi, he went to ask for help.

And what the two of them said was naturally not Qin Hua, Lu Bu and Qin Hua didn't have any friendship to talk about, and the reinforcements that Chen Gong found were Yuan Shu.

Of course, Yuan Shu didn't want to help Lu Bu, but he didn't want Cao Cao to take Xuzhou either. However, Yuan Shu is stingy, even if Chen Gong promised a lot of money, Yuan Shu still doesn't want his army to lose too much.

His idea was that Lu Bu and Cao Cao were fighting to defeat both, and he was sending troops, which was similar to what Qin Hua thought.

It's just that Qin Hua invested a lot in the early stage to reap the benefits of this fisherman, but Yuan Shu wanted to do business without capital.

When the second day came, Cao Cao still did not choose to attack the city, and it is estimated that the head wind has not yet recovered.

Lu Bu sent troops, the gate of Xiapi City slowly opened, and Lu Bu's army rushed out and quickly set up a formation outside the city.

Naturally, the movements of Lu Bu's army were quickly discovered by Cao Jun, and seeing that Lu Bu began to set up a formation, Cao Jun also quickly mobilized.

As soon as the banner of Cao's army was erected, Lü Bu's army launched an attack.

Although the preparation was not sufficient, the quality of Cao Jun was reflected, although he had not yet completely set up the formation, he was already able to counterattack.

Shieldmen, pikemen, and archers performed their duties to block Lü Bu's attack.

Cao Ren, Le Jin, Xiahou Yuan and other generals also moved with their headquarters and horses, wanting to encircle Lu Bu's army.

However, although Lu Bu was not good at strategy, his ability to command troops was really powerful, and he commanded the remaining four generals Wei Xu, Hao Meng, Song Xian, and Cheng Lian to form a cone and rush straight to Cao Cao's main formation.

Along the way, Cao's army couldn't stop it at all, and Cao Cao wanted to eat this army in one fell swoop, so Cao Ren and others were surrounded from both flanks and dispersed their forces, and Lu Bu was about to come to him.

However, Cao Cao is not very worried, because his trump card has not yet come out.

Cao Cao's soldiers and horses began to move, and a cavalry rushed out of it and rushed straight in the direction of Lu Bu.

The first person is handsome and young, this person's name is Cao Chun, and he is also a member of the Cao clan.

The cavalry led by Cao Chun is the most elite tiger and leopard cavalry under Cao Cao, although this is imitated by the Xuanjia cavalry, but the training method is completely different, the tiger and leopard cavalry does not have heavy armor, only a leather armor defense, so it cannot form a strong group charge like the Xuanjia cavalry.

However, the tiger and leopard rider pays more attention to individual combat strength, and can be more flexible without wearing heavy armor, only to see the tiger and leopard rider crash into Lu Bu's formation, and instantly block Lu Bu's offensive.

A tiger and leopard cavalry faced two or three Lu Bu cavalry at the same time, but still did not fall behind.

Cao Chun and several centurions riding tigers and leopards directly took Lu Bu and fought together.

Lu Bu didn't show weakness, he used his hands hard, and with one blow, he smashed the long knife in the hand of a tiger and leopard riding centurion, and cut off his head.

It was not the first time that Lu Bu had encountered an army like the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, he had been besieged by Qin Hua's trapping camp and Xuanjia Cavalry a long time ago, so he also had some ways to deal with it.

For example, this kind of elite soldiers, although most of them are not as powerful as those brave generals, but they are much stronger than ordinary soldiers.

And most of them will have a set of combined attack methods, which are a little more powerful than a single fierce general.

Therefore, Lu Bu chose to kill one first when he was riding on the opposite side, which could not only break the opponent's combined attack, but also reduce the opponent's morale.

When Lu Bu was in Bingzhou, he once defeated a group of hundreds of Di bandits, not because he really killed hundreds of people alone, but after he killed dozens of people alone, the Di people thieves began to scatter and flee, and Lu Bu only had to keep chasing and killing behind.

This is because the morale of these Di people has been lowered to the bottom, and they can't resist at all. If they could maintain their original appearance, Lu Bu really wouldn't be able to defeat so many enemies.

However, he miscalculated this time, the appearance of the tiger and leopard riding without fear of death was beyond Lu Bu's imagination.

It is no wonder that although the equipment of the tiger and leopard rider is far inferior to the Xuanjia rider, Cao Cao spent no less money on them than Qin Hua spent on the Xuanjia rider.

The consequence of this is that all the Haw Par Riders can sacrifice their lives for Cao Cao, and although the Haw Par Riders also have morale, there will never be a big drop in morale.

With the tiger and leopard cavalry blocking, the other soldiers of Cao's army began to gradually complete the encirclement of Lü Bu.

This time, Lu Bu led a total of 30,000 troops out of the city, and there were less than 10,000 people in the city to defend it.

But even so, he still couldn't come to Cao Cao's side.

The soldiers around him were constantly killed, and Lu Bu was gradually surrounded by tiger and leopard riders.

After all, there are only three thousand tigers and leopard cavalry, and there is not much left to resist Lu Bu's cavalry, and after such a long time of fighting.

However, the soldiers and soldiers in the back also immediately stepped forward to fill the vacancy.

The red rabbit horse had been injured in many places, and could no longer carry Lu Bu, so he fell to the ground unwillingly and neighed.

Lu Bu didn't have time to pay attention to his mount at this time, he was now surrounded by enemy troops, and even the corpses of Cao's soldiers were all under his feet.

A full hour had passed since the battle, and Yuan Shu's reinforcements were still nowhere to be seen, and Lu Bu began to despair.

He suddenly remembered Qin Hua, when Qin Hua was besieged under the city, was it just like what he thought now?

But soon Lu Bu laughed again, Qin Hua still had the land of Sanzhou behind him, two or three hundred thousand male soldiers, how could he be like himself.

Lu Bu's current idea is that he can kill one more person and kill one more, even if he dies, he will have to pull more people on his back.

Cao Cao didn't know what to think, he seemed to want to capture Lü Bu alive, and did not order archery, but just constantly commanded the army to surround Lü Bu's other armies.

The mountain of corpses under Lu Bu's feet was getting higher and higher, and there were more and more wounds on his own body.

His vision had begun to blur, his hands were numb, and Lu Bu felt that he was about to reach his limit.

Just when Lu Bu was about to give up, he suddenly found that the Cao army around him began to retreat. As far as the eye can see, the surrounding Cao soldiers are retreating, and the remnants of the Lu Bu army, which were originally surrounded by the Cao army, are also revealed.

At this time, Lu Bu also saw that an army was coming rapidly in the distance, and Lu Bu's heart suddenly settled down a lot, did Yuan Shu finally send troops?

It's just that when this army approached, the already somewhat blurred vision told Lu Bu that this was not Yuan Shu's army.

Because the banner of the coming army was written with a white character on a black background, this was actually Qin Hua's army.
