Chapter 228: The First Battle of Xiangyang City is Over
Lu Bu used a halberd with all his might, plus Yuan Shu and others took the lead to weaken the power of the Xiangyang City Protector Array, so that the Xiangyang City Protector Array was directly shattered, and even Pang Ji, who controlled the Xiangyang City Protector Array, lost his life because the Array was broken.
Seeing that the protective array of Xiangyang City was broken, Lu Bu smiled contemptuously on the neighing red rabbit horse, and then drove the neighing red rabbit horse back to Yuan Shu's side, and said to Yuan Shu: "Bu, fortunately, you are not dishonored!" ”
Yuan Shu's gaze wandered on Lu Bu, and he also saw that Lu Bu had already spent all his strength because of that blow, and now Lu Bu was unable to make a move at all. However, even if he lost Lu Bu's strongest combat power, Yuan Shu was not afraid, and without the suppression of his own soldiers by the Xiangyang City Protector Array, Yuan Shu was confident that the Jingzhou defenders of Xiangyang City would know how powerful he was.
Yuan Shu said: "Feng Xian will go down to rest for a day or two, and Feng Xian will not need to make a move in this battle for the time being!" ”
Lu Bu was not reckless, and rested on the side after receiving the order, but at this moment, all the civil and military forces beside Yuan Shu looked at Lu Bu with a slightly different gaze. Lu Bu's blow just now was already infinitely close to the power of the Xuan Transformation Realm, which showed that Lu Bu's strength was strong. Especially Xu Chu, after seeing Lu Bu's halberd that exhausted all his strength, he also asked himself, if Lu Bu's blow fell on him, could he block it?
The final result was that Xu Chu thought that if Lu Bu really used such a halberd on himself, he would have no second end except to be beaten to death. The power of that blow was too terrifying, so terrifying that Xu Chu had no confidence to be able to block it. If Xu Chu's cultivation can go further, and reach the same level as Lu Bu, he may be able to block it desperately, but with Xu Chu's current strength, it will not be useful at all in the face of that blow.
But fortunately, Lu Bu can't slash out that kind of attack at will, and the halberd Lu Bu just now has also exhausted all his strength, and now Lu Bu doesn't even have the strength to make a move. If Lu Bu could be slashed out at will with that attack just now, I am afraid that there would be no one in the world who was Lu Bu's opponent.
Thinking of this, Xu Chu's gaze at Lu Bu was also a little hot, and his fighting spirit was high. The strength shown by Lu Bu did not make Xu Chu afraid, but aroused the ferocity in Xu Chu's heart, so that Xu Chu couldn't wait to improve his strength and fight with Lu Bu again.
None of the martial artists who can truly grow to the top are afraid of failure, and failure is just a stepping stone on the road to further progress for them. If defeat can improve their strength, then maybe these warriors will like defeat instead. It is impossible for a person who is afraid of failure to step into a higher realm, and failure is not terrible, but it is terrible that failure gives birth to demons in his heart and hinders the progress of cultivation.
Xu Chu u Lu Bu fought twice, the first time was outside Pingyu City, Xu Chu was ordered to test Lu Bu's strength, and the cavalry battle was easily crushed by Lu Bu; The second time was in the military camp outside Guanyang City, Xu Chu and Lu Bu fought on foot, but the result was still not Lu Bu's opponent.
Both battles were defeated at the hands of Lu Bu, but Xu Chu did not feel depressed because of this, but instead aroused Xu Chu's enterprising spirit and the fierceness hidden in the depths of Xu Chu's body, so that Xu Chu aimed to defeat Lu Bu and cultivate hard to improve his strength.
Now that Lu Bu has shown the strength to be infinitely close to the Xuan Transformation Realm, Xu Chu's heart is also extremely hot, and he also hopes that one day he will be able to have such strength.
Looking at the Huoyun Knife in his hand, the belief in Xu Chu's heart became even firmer.
And at this moment, because the protective array of Xiangyang City was shattered by Lu Bu, the suppression that Yuan Shujun soldiers had encountered was instantly gone, making Yuan Shujun's soldiers feel light when the suppressive force disappeared. The power they exert is even beyond their original strength.
At the same time that the suppression of the soldiers of Yuan Shujun disappeared, the increase of the soldiers of Jingzhou Army also disappeared, and under the effect of the two, the soldiers of Yuan Shujun broke out at the first time with far more strength than usual, and they fought against the offensive of the Jingzhou Army to the head of Xiangyang City.
At this time, the defense of Xiangyang City was in charge of Wen Ping, seeing that those Yuan Shu soldiers were about to be killed, Wen Ping was furious, waved his long knife, and personally went into battle to shoot, and cut down the Yuan Shu soldiers who were about to climb up, and at the same time raised the rolling wood thunder stone and smashed it into the Yuan Shu soldiers on the cloud ladder.
Wen Ping personally went into battle, which greatly stimulated the morale of the Jingzhou army officers and soldiers, and made the morale of the Jingzhou soldiers who were originally demoralized because of the broken Xiangyang City Protector Array have rebounded a little, although it can't be compared with the time when the war just started, but it is better than the morale that fell to the bottom.
When Yuan Shu was shattered in the protective array of Xiangyang City, he ordered another 10,000 troops to go up and increase the intensity of the siege, which made the pressure on Wen Ping even greater.
However, although Yuan Shu increased the siege of the city, but Xiangyang City is a strong city after all, Wen Ping is also a good general, under Wen Ping's full strength, Yuan Shujun finally failed to capture Xiangyang City, and Yuan Shujun withdrew after leaving nearly a thousand corpses under Xiangyang City.
At the head of Xiangyang City, Wen Ping stood with a knife, looking at Yuan Shujun who had withdrawn, a trace of light flashed in his eyes, making it impossible to see what Wen Ping was thinking now. And after Yuan Shujun all withdrew, Wen Ping was relieved.
After Yuan Shu withdrew all the soldiers under his command into the array, he looked at the nearly 1,000 corpses under the city of Xiangyang and ordered: "The whole army retreats to the battalion, Zhang Xun, go and dispose of the corpses of the fallen soldiers." ”
After Zhang Xun got the order, he led hundreds of Yuan Shujun soldiers to push the cart to transport the corpses back, and when the corpses were packed, it was impossible for the Jingzhou army to attack, which was already an unspoken rule on the battlefield. Therefore, when Zhang Xun sent people to transport those corpses back, Wen Ping also strictly restrained the soldiers under his command from attacking these Jingzhou army soldiers.
Yuan Yao followed Yuan Shu to withdraw to the military camp, and today's battle allowed Yuan Yao to truly see the strength of Lu Bu, a top powerhouse, Lu Bu's strength is stronger now than when the Eighteenth Route Princes Alliance was fighting Dong, and with a full blow, he was able to shatter the protective array of Xiangyang City, a strong city in the world.
At this time, Yuan Yao's desire for power in his heart had almost become an obsession, and he also hoped that one day he would be able to have the strength of Lu Bu.
