Chapter 117: A Pyrrhic Victory
Lu Bu, Xiang Yu, and Li Yuanba, three peerless fierce men, entered the battlefield.
Although it did not play a big role in the overall battlefield situation, in some areas, it was like a fierce tiger, giving great hope and encouragement to the officers and men who broke through the barracks.
Bell, bell, bell...
As soon as Lu Bu entered the battlefield, he encountered three soldiers riding tigers and leopards, stabbing with spears. Lu Bu held Fang Tian's halberd tightly, quickly blocked it, and then made a gorgeous sweep, wanting to solve the opponent at once.
But unexpectedly, the three soldiers of the tiger and leopard rode were lying on their horses at the same time and dodged the attack.
Burst!
Lu Bu looked surprised, changed the sweep to a downward split, and smashed the war horse in the middle to death.
At the same time, the other two soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard rode straight up and stabbed with their spears.
Bell...
Lu Bu grabbed Fang Tian's halberd, swung his tail from side to side, and knocked them off the horse.
This series of actions seems simple, but in fact, it has extremely high requirements for people's strength, speed, and body flexibility.
After dealing with the three soldiers, Lu Bu put away his contempt. Changed the three-point defense to a six-point defense. On the premise of ensuring their own safety, they calmly face the battle.
Xiang Yu's situation there is better.
His coiled dragon halberd, weighing 129 catties, coupled with innate divine power, can be smashed to death even by iron-clad war horses when wielded.
Xiang Yu was in a hurry, and the speed at which he killed the enemy was faster than Lu Bu.
The entire battlefield was fought easily by Li Yuanba.
For Li Yuanba, there may not be an elite or a weak brigade, and no matter how elite the soldiers are, they can't stop him from hammering. Anyone who came close to him, whether it was a general or a soldier, was wounded when he was next to him, and died if he touched it.
With him as the center, within a radius of five zhang, there are stumps and broken arms, and rivers of blood flow.
Rumble!
Fighting, Li Yuanba put the double hammer on the ground and wiped the blood on his face with his sleeve.
This action made the surrounding tiger and leopard knights all surround them, but they just didn't dare to step forward.
After wiping the blood off his face, Li Yuanba raised his hammer and continued to fight...
Minutes and seconds passed. Burning clouds appeared in the sky, shining on the battlefield, making the already crimson battlefield even more dazzling, as if in a red world.
The battle between the broken barracks and the tiger and leopard cavalry was always in a fierce state.
Lu Bu, Xiang Yu, and Li Yuanba are the three invincible gods of war, and under their continuous attacks, they finally redeemed their defeat.
Originally, there were 5,000 tigers and leopards to ride, but now there are less than 500 left.
There were originally 3,000 broken barracks, and there were less than 100 left.
The fighting was unprecedented.
Boom boom...
Li Yuanba continued to wield the drum urn golden hammer, and his speed did not decrease at all.
Xiang Yu called on the soldiers who broke the barracks to make the last charge.
Lu Bu watched the entire battlefield, a shocked look on his face, lingering.
The tiger and leopard riders were almost all killed, but they did not retreat or surrender, and their willpower is rare in the world.
Half a quarter of an hour later, most of the five hundred tiger and leopard knights were killed by Xiang Yu and Li Yuanba, and the last five were left, still standing in the pile of dead people. Their horses were slain and their armor was broken, but they still stood tall. There was always a fierce look on his face.
"Wait a minute..."
Lu Bu rode a red rabbit horse and came to the five people.
Li Yuanba and Xiang Yu both moved closer to Lu Bu. Behind him were more than forty soldiers from the broken barracks, confronting the five men.
Lu Bu took a deep breath and said, "As long as you lay down your weapons, I can spare you from dying." ”
"Kill...!"
Unexpectedly, the five soldiers of the tiger and leopard rode ignored Lu Bu at all, roared, and rushed towards Lu Bu.
Li Yuanba jumped forward, smashing the drum urn and the golden hammer forward, smashing three of the soldiers into meatloaf.
Xiang Yu stepped forward, and the coiled dragon halberd stabbed, killing a soldier.
"I repeat, as long as you lay down your weapons, I will spare you from death." Lu Bu held Fang Tian's halberd tightly and flipped it in his hand, pressing it against the neck of the soldier who rushed in.
The soldier still didn't agree to Lu Bu, looked at the battlefield around him, and crashed into the blade of Fang Tian's halberd without hesitation. Blood flowed down his neck, and the soldier collapsed in a pool of blood.
Lu Bu was shocked! Shocking!
Any ordinary soldier in the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry can have such blood, if Xiang Yu leads this force, it won't sweep everything? It's a pity that such an iron-blooded elite was handed over to a mediocre talent like Cao Chun.
Lu Bu turned around, looked at the soldiers in the broken barracks behind him, and said, "See, this is the elite!" ”
"Even if you are surrounded and faced with a desperate situation, you dare to fight to the last man, never surrender, never admit intimidation. When you go to the battlefield, you see death as home. I hope that each and every one of you can remember this moment and think carefully about what kind of mentality you should use to fight. ”
The soldiers fell into deep thought.
"The lesson of the lord is that in the future, we must train well when we break the barracks." Xiang Yu arched his hand.
"It's not a question of training or not, it's about will! Does the will understand? Just like the five soldiers of the tiger and leopard just now, they knew that they were invincible, but they still wanted to attack us. Why? ”
"If our soldiers can also have this will, I believe that if not the elite, then the elite!"
This question is a bit profound, and Xiang Yu and the soldiers who broke the barracks couldn't understand it for a while. Lu Bu decided that after the capture of Yangzhou, he would have a good spiritual cleansing, so that all the soldiers could understand why they were fighting.
Only by understanding this problem can we have the will to see death as home.
The sky gradually darkened, and Lu Bu sent people to clean up the battlefield.
In the pile of dead, one hundred and thirty-three lightly and seriously wounded people in the broken barracks were turned out.
found 1,300 war horses, countless instruments, armor, etc.; It's a pity that the broken barracks suffered all the casualties, and they really can't take it away.
So, Lu Bu asked people to dig a pit in the woods outside the battlefield and bury the armor of the tiger and leopard cavalry and the broken military camp.
In the middle of the night, he left the battlefield with less than 200 soldiers, more than 1,000 war horses, and a group of Cao army prisoners.
Cao Ren, Xu Chu, Xu Huang, and Xia Houen all witnessed this battle with their own eyes.
Seeing the elite tigers and leopards riding elite, being wiped out by the enemy, but unable to lend a helping hand, their hearts were filled with grief and resentment.
Hate Zhang Xun to retreat from the battle, and he won't save him when he sees death!
Thinking about the end of the battle, there were less than 100 people left in the broken military camp, and Lu Bu, Xiang Yu, and Li Yuanba were all exhausted, if at this time, there were tens of thousands of troops rushing to kill, how could they not win?
It's a pity that Zhang Xun doesn't have the guts.
The tiger and leopard rider partnered with Zhang Xun, and it was destined to fail.
