Chapter 6: The Double Heroes Battle Lu Bu
Zhang Fei's Zhangba Snake Spear was only old, and Guan Yu's big knife arrived later.
The two of them cooperated tacitly with one left and one right, and greeted Lu Bu with every move.
Lu Bu's halberd flew up, calmly dissolving each of their attacks.
couldn't attack for a long time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were a little anxious, and Liu Bei, who was watching the battle from a distance, was also nervously clenching his fists.
He wanted to come forward to help, but with his little skills, even if he rushed up, it was just a meat target for Lu Bu to pick and kill.
In a panic, Guan Yu slashed with a knife, and leaned forward a little too violently.
Zhang Fei's snake spear followed, Lu Bu pulled the halberd away, and then drew a halberd, and stabbed him in the shoulder blade before Guan Yu could close the knife.
The shoulder was injured, Guan Yu snorted, and the big knife almost flew out of his hand.
"Second brother, let's go!" Zhang Fei burst out and slashed a spear at the top of Lu Bu's head.
Lu Bu blocked the snake spear, and Guan Yu had already turned around and retreated.
The two of them together are not his opponents, and Zhang Fei has no chance of winning when he deals with it alone.
He shook a spear, and turned his head to follow closely behind Guan Yu when Lu Bu received the move.
"Kill!" Repelled the two of them, and Lu Bu shouted with the front finger of the halberd.
Two hundred elite horsemen swarmed out.
Guan Yu was injured, Zhang Fei alone was not Lu Bu's opponent at all, how could Liu Bei dare to fight.
He shouted to the soldiers he had brought with him, "Withdraw!" β
Liu Bei led his troops to turn around and run, Lu Bu chased after him for a while, and stopped killing twenty or thirty people.
"Big-eared thief, remember to pull your ears when you run away, maybe you can fly like a kite in the wind!" Standing on the halberd, Lu Bu laughed.
The two hundred horsemen who followed him also let out a wild laugh.
Lu Bu's laughter and scolding came from behind him, and Liu Bei didn't look back, just ran forward.
There was no shame for him to run away.
After all, he has long been used to being driven around the world.
Killing Liu Bei and others, Lu Bu led two hundred elite horsemen to gallop in the direction of Xiapi.
Gao Shun and Zhang Liao held the head of the city, and Cao's army attacked for most of the night without success, and had already retreated to the barracks.
LΓΌ Bu returned to the outside of Xiapi City, and Cao Jun was busy cleaning up the battlefield.
Looking at Xiapi City from afar, Lu Bu shouted to the two hundred elite horsemen behind him: "Follow me!" β
He did not choose to return to the city, but took two hundred people straight to the nearest hill to Xiapi.
In the middle of the night, the sky was not yet fully bright.
Ascending to the top of the mountain, LΓΌ Bu instructed the two cavalrymen: "You disguise yourself as ordinary people, go to the nearest city to find a tailor to make a hundred Yuan Shu banners, and send them here within three days." β
The two horsemen were ordered to leave.
He led the rest of the men to camp on the hill.
The sky was slightly bright, the battlefield outside Xiapi City had been cleared, the corpses of Cao Jun who had died in battle had been carried away, and there were still messy stones and arrows on the ground.
Two siege towers burned not far from the city walls, and the messy battlefield looked even more depressed and dilapidated.
"Raise the battle flag!" Looking at the head of Xiapi City, Lu Bu shouted: "Let everyone in the city and outside the city know that we are here!" β
Several soldiers then hoisted up their battle flags.
The cold wind lifted the battle flag, and the hula sounded.
Standing under the battle flag, the tall Lu Bu was like a killing god.
After a whole night of fighting, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and every soldier were tired and their bones seemed to be pulled out of their bodies.
"I don't know if Wen Hou has succeeded." Gao Shun looked out of the city: "If it doesn't work out, it won't be so easy to sneak attack the enemy's grain and grass." β
Zhang Liao's face was solemn and he didn't say anything.
LΓΌ Bu only took two hundred elite horsemen out of the city, and although he saw him rush through the Cao army's camp, Cao's pursuers also followed him and killed him.
In the face of Cao Jun's encirclement and interception, Zhang Liao asked himself if it was him, it would never be possible to complete such a difficult task.
The two of them were still worried about Lu Bu, and the soldier next to them pointed into the distance: "Two generals, Wen Hou is there!" β
Looking in the direction pointed by the soldiers, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao saw Lu Bu's battle flag fluttering on the hill in the distance.
"Wen Hou has succeeded! Otherwise, I would never have returned so soon! The two of them were immediately overjoyed.
"General Lu burned the enemy's grain and grass, they couldn't support it for too long, and the soldiers cheered me up!" Before, he thought that Lu Bu was unlikely to succeed, but Zhang Liao was full of ambition at this time.
The news of Cao Jun's grain and grass being burned spread throughout Xiapi.
The defenders of the city let out bursts of cheers as if they had been beaten.
Outside the city, the Cao family barracks.
Cao Cao's face was pale, and he looked at the battle flag fluttering on the hill in the distance.
Liu Bei and others, who failed to intercept Lu Bu, stood behind him with a disgraced face.
They lowered their heads one by one, and they didn't even dare to sneak a glance at Cao Cao.
"Thousands of people chased and intercepted two hundred people, and let him escape!" Cao Cao said with an angry face: "If Lu Bu escapes death, we won't have a good time in the future!" β
"Lord, I'll lead my troops to destroy him!" Failed to catch up with Lu Bu, and watched him burn the grain and grass, Xiahou Dun, who was full of shame, arched his hand and said.
"Lu Bu is brave, are you his opponent?" Cao Cao shouted: "Miaocai, Mancheng, you two go with Yuan Rang to take down Lu Bu!" β
Two people walked out of the crowd.
One of them, with a full face and beard, seems to be very powerful, it is Xiahou Yuan, Xiahoudun's younger brother.
And the other person, although he was wearing the general's armor, had a somewhat bookish appearance, and it was Li Dian, the general that Cao Cao relied on very much.
The two of them bowed to Cao Cao and saluted: "We will not fail in our mission!" β
Xiahoudun greeted him, accompanied by Xiahou Yuan and Li Dian, and ordered 2,000 soldiers and horses to rush to the hill where Lu Bu was stationed.
went up the hill, and Lu Bu was not idle.
While asking people to get the Yuan Shu battle flag, he took two hundred elite horses to dig pits and cut trees on the mountainside, and he was very busy.
"General, someone's coming!" He was wrapping rattan around a big tree with his own hands, and the soldier next to him reminded Lu Bu.
Looking back, he saw clouds of smoke and dust billowing in, at least two or three thousand people.
"The one who sent him to death is coming!" Lu Bu shouted: "Hurry up and get the trap right, and we will retreat to the top of the mountain." β
The method of the soldiers to set the traps was taught by Lu Bu himself.
The method he taught was simple, but he used vines to trigger a trap, and with the elastic force of branches and rattans, he ejected sharpened sticks.
In addition, barbs were inserted into the pits dug in the ground.
Once a person falls into it, don't try to come up alive.
Cao Jun is getting closer and closer, and he is about to reach the foot of the mountain.
"Let's go!" The trap was almost ready, and Lu Bu beckoned his hand and ran to the top of the mountain with the soldiers.
When they reached the top of the mountain, Cao Jun also began to climb the mountain.
LΓΌ Bu instructed the soldiers: "Cut down all the trees on the top of the mountain, and when they are halfway up the mountain, set fire to the trees and roll down." On a cold day, we help them keep warm! β
The two hundred horsemen shouted, and they all ran to cut down the trees.
The trees on the top of the mountain fell one by one, and Xiahoudun and others led the Cao army to charge up the hillside.
