Chapter 548: The Old Ministry

The sound of the rain .....

The heavy rain in midsummer has been falling for several days, and the water vapor is churning in people's field of vision, as if the whole world is immersed in rainwater, Wang Kuang let people hold a paper umbrella and walk up to the city, looking at the misty rain curtain, inhaling a breath, and the slightly cool water stains splashed on his lips.

"It seems that this rain can't stop for the time being, and the two families outside the city shouldn't be fighting in this weather, it's really an eyes......"

He let out a long breath, and his round figure walked across the wall with his hands on his shoulders, "..... but before the war is now, the heavy rain is pouring, and it has been raining for several days, and the rivers in various parts of the county have risen and washed away the farmland, and the government still has to properly settle the people, and this matter must be done urgently!" Even if I, Wang Kuang, have no ability to stop the war, I can't let the people under my rule have no fixed place to live and go hungry. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Go down and do it! ”

He sighed and waved his hand, and the official who received the order over there had just taken a few steps, and someone from below hurriedly came up, splashed with rain and already soaked, "Lord, there is urgent news from the spies outside...... There was movement outside the city. ”

Wang Kuang was stunned.

At the same time, several hills connected to the Taihang Mountains in the west, more than fifty miles away from the wild king, the lead-blue rain curtain, splashing under the horse's hooves, and the dense rain hit the cavalry armor, "Speed faster-" Among the two thousand cavalry dragons, there were voices shouting from time to time, the knight at the front of the team was mighty, perhaps the relationship between the rainy day and the previous attire was not the same, black iron armor, no cloak, covered with a coat, and a Fang Tian painting halberd hung on the side of the horse.

"How far is it from Cao Ying?" The red war horse crossed a hill, neighed and slowly stopped, and when he rested for a while, the figure on the horse's back raised slightly, revealing Lu Bu's appearance.

"Back to Wenhou, there will be another thirty miles to bypass the wild king." The reply was a lieutenant in the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, Gao Shun did not follow this time because he was the commander of the trapped camp, so he temporarily transferred a lieutenant general as a deputy. The man hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Wen Hou, I'm afraid it's a bit too risky to raid Cao Ying on this rainy day......"

Lu Bu smiled at him, took a sip of the water bag, and took a sip: "What you said, why doesn't a certain family know, in recent months, there have been several frictions and small fights, and there are mutual victories and defeats, don't look at Cao Cao, he will bring 30,000 soldiers and horses over, but he Yanzhou is so close, he can draw grain and straw supply at any time, and if he holds it for too long, it is not good for our army, so we must open up the situation to boost morale..... seize the time to rest, and we are about to set off." ”

After a pause for two moments, Lu Bu turned over and got on his horse: "It's all there!" ”

The cavalry who was hiding from the rain in the surrounding trees quickly got on their horses, and then ran with Lu Bu in front, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves splashed on the ground and the water in the farther holes also rippled, crossing the woods hiding from the rain, the speed gradually accelerated, the roar brought up, the momentum of breaking through the rain curtain, it can be said that few people can beat it in this era.

At this time, in the past three miles, the horse team galloped through the rain curtain, in a hilly and wooded area, Lu Bu suddenly grabbed the reins, and at this moment, the frightened birds in the woods fluttered in the branches, and a black shadow 'whoosh' shot out from inside, and the next second, the clothes were stretched out, and the long soldiers waved and slashed down, only to hear the sound of the snort.

An arrow broke into two under the halberd and fell into the rain, on the back of the red rabbit horse, Lu Bu held the halberd in one hand and the reins in the other, and shouted: "Since there is an ambush here, then get outβ€”β€”"

Sigh Rule!!

The Bingzhou Iron Cavalry running behind him also stopped, and after losing momentum, he directly turned out his shield, drew his sword and gathered in his hand, forming a defensive formation. And at this time, the sound of fighting and shouting broke out in the forest, the branches shook one by one, and the figures of Cao Bing rushed out of the hidden position, surrounded left and right, and roughly swept away, there were three or four thousand people.

Among the rushing ambush soldiers, there were also horses' hooves churning in the mud, and when Lu Bu looked back, in his field of vision, the blade with a buzzing sound, split the rain curtain, as if drawing a fan-shaped streamer, coming towards him, with a soft hum in his mouth, and raising the halberd casually.

Phew-

The metal made a screeching sound, the blade slammed on the halberd, the rain of the two weapons was forced away, the enemy with the knife was stagnant, the face stained with rain gritted his teeth violently, his arms pushed hard, and the weapons that collided bounced away, Lu Bu glanced at him: "..... Wenyuan, some have grown." In the whispered words, the horse straightened his body, the halberd in his hand leaned forward, Zhang Liao over there directly clamped the horse's belly, and the vertical knife was stuck between the tip of the halberd and the ear branch, Rao is so the whole body also leaned back slightly on the horse's back, pursed his lips and gritted his teeth for a moment, and suddenly opened his mouth: "Ah-" screamed, struggled to push the stabbed halberd back, and slashed down with a backhand, and then was missed by the other party lightly.

Zhang Liao's martial arts are exquisite, and his strength is not weak, and the knife momentum that is slashed every time is extremely powerful, and it is difficult for ordinary people to take a few knives, but Lu Bu on the opposite side just opened the blade of the chopped blade with a halberd in one hand, or barely hit back, and did not use all his strength.

There were also several Cao army generals riding horses in the surrounding woods, and the four generals Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, Song Xian, and Wei Xu looked at the two figures in the rain with complicated expressions, but they didn't know how to intervene in the past.

"I'm already a general under Cao Gong......" Seeing that everyone was a little hesitant, Song Xian looked at them and lowered his voice, that is, he was about to step forward to help. A voice next to him suddenly shouted, "Song Xian, you take two more steps and try!" Cheng Lian then rushed out to the side and pointed a gun at him, "In the past, I thought that Wen Hou was gone, so I voted for the prime minister, but now in Wen Hou's good eyes, I don't return to the old master, and I call him loyal in vain!" ”

"I'll just take two steps, how are you going?!"

"I'll dare to kill youβ€”"

"Two Generals ....."

While Wei Xu persuaded from this, in front of the four of them, Lu Bu's words suddenly sounded in the rain curtain over there: "Wen Yuan, stop!" Among the blades under the banner of the dance, the robes on the mighty figure of the red rabbit horse suddenly opened, the halberd was inserted obliquely, the tip of the knife was hung, the arm was twisted violently, and the hook and sickle waved on the opposite side suddenly came out of his hand and lifted the rain curtain.

The red rabbit swung its mane and sprinkled the rain, and the leaves of the robes were also retracted at the same time.

"Wen Yuan has made some progress these days, you have set up an ambush here, I think Cao Cao has already sensed that I will take advantage of the heavy rain to sneak attack? It's just that...... Why not do it? ”

Zhang Liao rolled a few laps in the mud, stood up covered in mud and water, and didn't answer a sentence, just looked at Lu Bu in the rain, his body swayed slightly and walked a few steps towards the other party, and after a while: "...... Why did Feng Xian..... ...... Why did you fake your death and ignore your brothers? You tell me why ......"

On the other side, Cheng Lian, Song Xian and others also rode over, and someone jumped down to stop Zhang Liao, who struggled and shouted: "All the brothers came out of Bingzhou with you, even if you didn't have a fixed place to live and sent people under the fence, you never left you..... but you turned your back on us, Lu Bu!" I really misjudged you back thenβ€”"

At this time, Zhang Liao's eyes were already wet and red.

Heavy rain fell on the woods, and people's shoulders rattled. Lu Bu was silent for a moment: "That time in Jizhou, I was relieved to see that you were all right and still standing alone under Cao Cao. "The hand tightened the handle of the halberd and released it," ...... In the first battle of Xuzhou, if I didn't do that, how could you and I have a chance to meet again today? ”

"I knew that Wen Hou was not greedy for life and afraid of death!" Cheng Lian laughed and jumped off the horse, ran forward, and bowed directly: "The last general Cheng Lian will meet the Lord....."

"Don't worship me, I have made it very clear that day......" Lu Bu reined in his horse's head and staggered his position, "...... call me Lu Bu in the future, or Wen Hou, you don't have to call the word lord anymore, when Xuzhou, the Lu Bu who wanted to prove himself had died on the battlefield, and now Lu Bu is going to take another road, you don't have to follow this road anymore......"
