Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Battle for Jizhou (1)
Within a few days, Zhao Xu had already led the army to cross the Yellow River, sending military horses to investigate, and leading the army straight to the Bohai Sea. According to Zhao Xu's plan, Bohai was originally the foundation of Yuan Shao, first attack Bohai, Yuan Shao heard that there was a mistake in the rear, and he would send troops to rescue, and then wait for work and break it in one fell swoop, which was the plan to save Zhao by encircling Wei.
But it was said that Yuan Shao was here, Yuan Shao got Lu Bu, plus the original Hebei famous generals Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Gao Lan, and Han Meng, and called the two Zhengliang and the three court pillars, Lu Bu and Han Meng were the two Zhengliang. Zhang He, who was supposed to be one of the four court pillars, was already at Liu Bei's place.
Yuan Shao ordered Lu Bu, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou to surround Gongsun Zan on all sides, but Gongsun Zan could not break through, irritable, and did not dare to go out of the city to face the battle, but he couldn't defend and wait for help.
Yuan Shao's attack on Gongsun Zan was almost out of the city, and now there are only some old, weak, sick and disabled people left in Bohai, but there are still frustrated people in the city to guard, seeing Zhao Xu leading troops to Bohai City, he hurriedly sent people to report Yuan Shao in the starry night, while urgently sending troops and horses to defend the city. Zhao Xu surrounded Bohai and did not attack the city, but just beat drums and shouted every day, making the defenders in Bohai City worry and fear every day.
A day later, Yuan Shaowen and Zhao Xu led troops to attack and urgently convened civil and military consultations.
When Lu Bu heard that it was Zhao Xu, he was furious, and immediately asked: "Lu Bu is not talented, I am willing to lead the army to break the enemy and behead Zhao Xu." ”
Yuan Shao thought to himself: Hehe, you can still behead Zhao Xu, you were defeated by Zhao Xu twice, and you dare to make such a big statement, disdain to damage your face!
"Haha! General Lu has this heart, which is naturally excellent, but Zhao Xu is scheming, although the general is brave, I am afraid that he will not be able to defeat him, and you must have a few generals to help you before you can break the enemy. ”
Lu Bu was waiting to argue, and Yuan Shao had ordered Wen Chou, Gao Lan, Ju Yi, Lu Xiang, and Lu Kuang to fight. Yuan Shao knew that Zhao Xu was good at martial arts, and his generals were even more strong in martial arts, so he didn't dare to slack off, and now he had several of his own generals to help in the war, and Yuan Shao was also very relieved, but Yuan Shao didn't dare to trust Lu Bu after all, so he ordered Wen Chou to be the main general, and Lu Bu was the vanguard, leading 60,000 soldiers and horses to the Bohai Sea for emergency.
Seeing that the military order had been issued, Lu Bu didn't dare to say anything more, and thought: Zhao Xu will definitely bring a few fierce generals, if he is alone, it will be extremely difficult to win. Thinking like this, he received Yuan Shao's military order.
Zhao Xu probed Yuan Shao, ordered Lu Bu and Wen Chou, and led 60,000 troops and horses to come. Zhao Xu ordered Zhou Cang to lead 6,000 soldiers to surround the Bohai Sea, and the woods were full of flags, pretending to besiege the city. He led his troops to the river to ambush.
But it was said that Wen Chou led the troops in a hurry, and soon arrived at the river, Wen Chou was in the carriage and said: "This time, Zhao Xu will see the power of my famous Hebei general!" ”
Han Meng said: "General Wen, that Zhao Xu is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, and he should not be underestimated. ”
"Humph! If Zhao Xu is not the advantage of the sword, he can win against me. Lu Bu said angrily. Lu Bu voted for Yuan Shao, and broke the Black Mountain Army, naturally the reward is indispensable, Lu Bu won the reward, that is, looking for iron everywhere, and asked Yuan Shao for a BMW donated by Wu Huan, and rebuilt a Fang Tian painting halberd, which is full of thirty-six catties, one or twelve catties heavier than before, and it is more convenient.
Everyone was discussing, passing by a forest, suddenly shouted a big shock, a team of soldiers and horses were killed in the forest, the leaders were Tai Shici and Zhang Liaoye, Wen Chou, Lu Bu hurriedly led troops to the enemy; Suddenly, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong on the left led an army to kill, and Han Meng and Gao Ran hurriedly led troops to the enemy. In the middle of the melee, Zhao Xu led the troops to kill on the main road ahead, Chen Zhi on the right, Dian Wei on the left, and behind him were the white-eared soldiers and the Condor Warriors.
As soon as Zhao Xu led the Condor Warriors and the Baier Soldiers to arrive, the battle situation, which was originally indistinguishable, was instantly reversed.
Zhao Xu waved his left hand, the white-eared soldiers and the Condor warriors were all holding spears, and they all shouted, the sound was like thunder, Huang Zhong and the others heard the shouts and immediately retreated, Wen Chou, Lu Bu and the others didn't react, why did they suddenly run away in the middle of the fight?
Without waiting for the Wen Chou army to react, the Condor warrior pulled his bow and shot arrows, and in an instant, hundreds of arrows were shot overwhelmingly, and many soldiers were stabbed to death. Lu Bu, Wen Chou and other generals danced their weapons, spun them like fans of later generations, and swept away the arrows one by one.
Lu Bu, Wen Chou and others were parrying, three hundred Condor warriors made sickle hook guns, swept towards Wen Chou's army, in the blink of an eye, hundreds of horse legs were cut off, the horse broke its legs, the cavalry all fell off the horse, Lu Bu, Wen Chou and others will see the powerful, dare not fight, return to the horse and leave. That's right, Zhao Xu is imitating Xu Ning's move to break the chain of horses in the Water Margin, and now it is very easy to use here.
Lu Bu greeted all the eighteen generations of Zhao Xu's ancestors at this time, and secretly scolded Zhao Xu for having so many new tricks.
Wen Chou, Lu Bu and other troops dispersed, the Condor Warriors retreated, and they all turned over and got on their horses, and Zhao Xu led the Condor Warriors and the White Ear Soldiers Pegasus to kill, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and other generals also led troops to kill, Wen Chou's army was defeated, and was killed by Zhao Xu for a while, and retreated forty miles before he took up his position.
Wen Chou reported to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao was furious, and wanted to wait for himself to go out in person, but was persuaded by Xu Yu and other strategists, so Yan Liang led 30,000 troops to help quickly.
Wen Chou didn't dare to fight, and hung up the war-free card all day long, and he was aggrieved. A few days later, Yan Liang's soldiers arrived, and Wen Chou joined forces with Yan Liang and went out of the village to fight.
Zhao Xu saw Wen Chou fighting, set up a formation, and the two armies confronted each other, only 100 meters apart.
Lu Bu originally had a fire in his belly, and as a pioneer general, Pegasus jumped out and shouted in front of the battle: "Who will fight with me?" ”
Zhao Xu's side, Huang Zhong held a golden-backed phoenix mouth knife and slapped his horse out. Huang Zhong knew Lu Bu's ability when he was in the Tiger Prison and knew it in his heart. What's more, Huang Zhong was only in his forties at this time, and the old Huang Zhong was still able to draw with Guan Yu, Huang Zhong's martial arts, it is conceivable, and he is naturally even more remarkable at this time.
The two armies shouted and cheered, and the drums shook loudly. Huang Zhong Pegasus shouted, "Lu Bu, do you recognize me Huang Zhong?" ”
Lu Bu thought to himself: Where is Huang Zhong from, how can I, Lu Bu, recognize you. shouted: "I, Lu Bu, have been famous for a long time, how can I recognize the village and the wild horseman?" ”
Huang Zhong was furious, and he came to fight with a knife, and Lu Bu fought with a halberd. The two horses intersected, Huang Zhong slashed his head, Lu Bu raised a halberd, and the sound of "bell" sparked everywhere; Huang Zhong slashed at his waist again, Lu Bu's halberd head wrapped around the phoenix mouth knife, lifted it up, and slashed again; Lu Bu was secretly proud, Huang Zhong slashed from below with another knife, Lu Bu hurriedly raised a halberd, pressed the back of the knife, Fang Tian drew a halberd to make a circle on the knife, Lu Bu held the halberd tail with one hand, and swept it straight to Huang Zhong's head, Huang Zhong raised the knife shaft and turned Lu Bu into a blow; When the two horses were about to separate, Huang Zhong returned to the horse with a knife, and Lu Bu only relied on his feelings, leaned on the halberd rod on his back, and his body fell on the horse's back, dodging the knife.
Huang Zhong stabbed one horse and four knives, Lu Bu resolved them one by one, and watched the soldiers of the two armies cheer again and again, Guan Yu and Yan Liang couldn't help but feel ashamed when they saw it, and the two of them asked themselves, they could do it at most with one horse and three swords.
Huang Zhong and Lu Bu separated, both of them secretly said that their opponents were very good, and the two of them immediately fought with the spirit of twelve points and went all out to face the battle. The two of them are good at killing, the two are fighting, and when they meet their opponents, it becomes a pity if they are slightly distracted. Lu Bu's halberd is fierce like an overlord, Huang Zhong's golden sword bravely crowns the three armies, the two of them fought inextricably in front of the battle, and after the fight, they only saw the shadow of the sword and the halberd, and did not see the human form, and the two horses circled around. The officers and men of the two armies beat drums and shouted: "Old General Huang Zhong is amazing!" "Wenhou Lu Bu is heroic!" The cheers were endless, and the sound was like thunder.
The two fought for more than 100 rounds, and it was difficult to distinguish between the superior and the spirit. Lu Bu raised his halberd and shook his might; Huang Zhong danced the golden sword, doubling his might. The two fought seventy or eighty times, regardless of victory or defeat, Lao Huang Zhong and Fei Lu Bu, chess opponents, will meet good materials; Generally, there is no strength or weakness in ability, and the first person in the world belongs to. Both of them secretly applauded in their hearts and admired each other's martial arts. Lu Bu said in his heart; Where did Huang Zhong come out, he is really good at his skills and high means, but I can only resist it just now.
The military horses on both sides looked demented, and Yan Liang sighed: "I have heard that Liu Bei's fierce generals are like clouds, and I don't want to have such a brave general, this Huang Zhong and Lu Bu have fought for many rounds, and they have not discounted Lu Bu at all." Wen Chou also responded: "Brother is also stunned, I have never seen such an opponent." ”
The two fought for more than 20 rounds, Lu Bu bought a flaw, turned the horse and left, Huang Zhong rushed over, it turned out that Lu Bu saw that it was difficult to defeat Huang Zhong, and he had a plan, wanting to shoot him with a cold arrow; It's a pity that Lu Bu is wrong this time, Huang Zhong is the first arrow in the Three Kingdoms, although Lu Bu's archery is high, he can only shoot others, if he compares arrows with Huang Zhong, he will only be shot. Lu Bu hung up Fang Tian's halberd, secretly pulled his bow, turned around and shot Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong knew that Lu Bu's martial arts were almost the same as his own, and when he saw him return to the horse and leave, he was secretly vigilant in his heart, and suddenly saw Lu Bu turn around and shoot an arrow, "Huh" An arrow sounded, Huang Zhong's eyes were fast, and he leaned back in a hurry, and saw that the arrow had been shot, and he passed the arrow in one hand, and hung the big knife in the other, picked up the bow, and shot it on Lu Bu's head.
Lu Bu originally thought that he would not be able to shoot Huang Zhong, and he would definitely be able to embarrass him and frustrate his spirit. I didn't want Huang Zhong to hold the arrow he shot and turn around to shoot back, Lu Bu heard the sound of the arrow breaking through the air, his body couldn't dodge, and he raised Fang Tian's halberd to block it. That arrow slashed through the tip of the crescent moon of Fang Tian's painting halberd, Lu Bu's mouth shook slightly, and his heart was horrified, just thinking that this Huang Zhong arrow was so powerful that it was really better than himself. Without waiting for Lu Bu to continue thinking, the arrow was slightly slashed by Fang Tian's halberd, the arrow's momentum rose, its strength decreased, and it grazed Lu Bu's forehead, shooting off Lu Bu's purple and gold crown. Lu Bu wore a purple and gold crown on his head, and only others had been knocked off twice in his life, the first time was when Zhao Xu was picked when he was besieged in the Tiger Prison Pass, and this time it was.
Lu Bu originally saw that he had dodged an arrow, and his heart was happy, but he suddenly felt that his head was hot, and he thought that he was scared out of Han, and when he touched it, it was blood, and Lu Bu was frightened, if Huang Zhong shot an arrow again, his life would be difficult to protect, and he would not dare to stay again, so he turned his horse and left, and fled in the wilderness. Huang Zhong didn't kill Lu Bu with an arrow, and secretly shouted that it was a pity, and seeing that Lu Bu was strong in martial arts, he had a heart of forgiveness, and he didn't shoot arrows to chase after him. In other words, when people meet opponents in life, they either fight to the death, or they pity each other.
Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others were shocked when they saw Lu Bu's defeat in the army, and the four generals Gao Lan, Ju Yi, Lu Xiang, and Lu Kuang went out to meet Huang Zhong and rescue Lu Bu. Zhao Xu thought to himself, Huang Zhong is nearly half a hundred years old, no matter how high his martial arts are, his energy is also declining, just after a big battle in Lu Bu, not to mention exhaustion, he is also very tired, if he continues to fight, he is afraid that Huang Zhong will lose, and he urgently ordered Mingjin.
Huang Zhong heard Mingjin, and returned to the horse and retreated to the camp, and Gao Ran and other generals did not dare to chase after him and returned to the village.
Exactly: the world is in turmoil, and the heroes of the four seas are mighty.
Nanyang veteran Huang Zhong is here, and he has not been afraid of Lu Buqiang since then.
