Chapter Twenty-Seven: Fierce and Peerless
Just after the first month, the earth has not completely thawed, and the boundless wilderness of Western Hubei is bleak as far as the eye can see.
Above the earth, there was a sudden violent tremor, and a muffled thunder came from a distance.
But seeing the smoke and dust billowing in the distance, sweeping the morning frost, like a huge wave emptying, the rumbling sound became closer and closer, more and more clear, and the vigorous war horses galloped towards this side.
Lu Bu with the only thirteen remaining iron horsemen, galloped from the north, although the war horse was vigorous, but it was already tired, not to mention ordinary soldiers, it was Lu Bu, at this moment the face was also tired, they were chased by the guard for a day and a night, from the south to the west, and then to the north, around a big circle.
Wei Qi has received the news that Gao Shun led his troops to help, in order to avoid Lu Bu and Gao Shun from converging, the recruited Chenglian Department of men and horses will be left under the leadership of Xu Huang to continue to pursue Lu Bu, and the soldiers and horses of the headquarters will delay Gao Shun, as long as Lu Bu is destroyed, Gao Shun's department is not worried.
Just chased and fled, and when Wei Qi sent cavalry to block him several times, he made it impossible for Lu Bu to return to Nanyang.
Xi'e is located in the northeast of Wancheng, back then, Ye Zhao was here to fight the Nanyang Yellow Turban, and broke it, it was also here, there was a conflict with Liu Bei, and Wancheng was separated by a water, but it was this water separation that cut off Lu Bu's way of life.
But seeing that Lu Bu stopped on the bank of the river with thirteen iron horses, the water four or five zhang wide is not wide, if it is in the middle of summer, it is not difficult to ride a horse directly, but now it is winter, the river is cold and biting, and there are ice ballast on the river surface that has not completely bloomed, this jumping down is no different from looking for death.
Lu Bu turned over and dismounted, looked at the enemy troops coming to this side densely in the distance, took off his armor, squatted on the water's edge, scrubbed the blood stains on his face with water, stood up, and said to the thirteen iron horsemen: "You can fight here with Lu Mou, you are already all loyal, Lu Bu has killed the lord twice in this life, and you can get your brothers to protect each other so desperately, this life is enough, and now Lu Bu mistakenly believes in the villain, which can be regarded as retribution, you brothers don't have to be buried with me anymore, the brothers are desperate to protect each other can not be repaid, today, I will send a certain head to you, With this head, it is not a problem to bow to the official! ”
Thirteen iron horsemen heard this, looked at each other, knelt down in front of Lu Bu, and a knight said hoarsely: "Lord, the humble position does not understand any big truth, but the life of the humble duty is saved by the lord, the humble duty has been by the lord's side for many years, and he has lived a very happy life, and the lord treats us like brothers, and now the lord is poor, and the humble duty does not dare to speak to help the lord fight out of the encirclement, but as long as the humble duty has a breath, the lord will never be allowed to die in front of the humble position." ”
Politically, Lu Bu may have problems with treating people, but for these old subordinates who follow him, it is very favorable, the betrayal of Cheng Lian and others, that is the difference in status, gave birth to thoughts that should not be had, but these guards around Lu Bu have been eating and living with Lu Bu all these years, there are benefits, Lu Bu has never forgotten these people, from the beginning of the state to the present, with Lu Bu for more than 20 years, that feeling and habits have been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, it has been proved that in this world, many emotions are not based on interests.
These people may not be good people for others, they have killed innocent people, raped women, if judged by the law that governs the world, each of them is a capital crime, but by Lu Bu's side, these people are the most loyal warriors, even if they know that there is a sea of swords and fires in front of them, as long as Lu Bu moves forward, they will be obliged to follow Lu Bu to kill together.
"Good!" Lu Bu took a deep breath, suppressed the churning emotion in his chest, and in his already tired body, there seemed to be some kind of power rushing out, and immediately said loudly: "Wash it and drink saliva, even if it is death, it can't make people laugh!" ”
"Whoa!"
Thirteen soldiers ignored the approaching enemy troops, silently walked to the river, washed the blood stains on their faces, and drank a few sips of water, although there was still dry food on the horseback, but Lu Bu did not let them eat, although they were very hungry, but eating at this time, not only could not replenish physical strength, but would make the body feel uncomfortable.
The icy river water poured down, and the whole person suddenly refreshed a lot, Lu Bu turned over and rode on the red rabbit, grinned, turned his head to look at the thirteen soldiers who were on the horse beside him, and looked at the soldiers and horses gathered on the opposite side, Xu Huang's general flag was already in sight, Lu Brown laughed and said: "Sons, go with me to kill!" ”
"Kill!"
Thirteen iron horsemen, like thirteen wolves at this moment, launched a charge in the face of the enemy army whose strength far exceeded their own, and the charge of the fourteen horsemen actually made the oncoming Wei Jiajun feel like facing thousands of troops.
As soon as Xu Huang saw this momentum, he knew that Lu Bu was here to fight hard this time, although he had occasional fights with Lu Bu before, but Lu Bu was eager to break through and had no intention of fighting, but now this tiger is desperate, Xu Huang's expression suddenly became solemn, the Xuanhua axe in his hand was raised, and the cavalry around him let out a roar at the same time, killing Lu Bu.
These cavalry, there are Wei Qi accumulated over the years, but more of them are the cavalry brought by Cheng Lian, although Lu Bu defeated them in one fell swoop, but after all, there are many people, and they can't be annihilated, and they didn't dare to touch Lu Bu before, but at this moment, seeing that Lu Bu was poor, there were only thirteen horsemen left around him, and he suddenly screamed and pounced on Lu Bu, and the morale was so high, even the elite was nothing more than that.
"Kill~"
Xu Huang, facing Lu Bu, raised the Xuanhua axe in his hand, in the previous battle, the strength of the two sides was at the same level, but Lu Bu's skills and experience were far superior to Xu Huang, in this situation of mutual hedging, it was the best choice to break the trick with strength, but Xu Huang forgot that at this moment, he was not facing Lu Bu who was fleeing for his life, but desperately.
"Bang~"
Fang Tian drew the halberd, Xu Huang obviously felt that this time Lu Bu's shot was different from usual, his chest was suffocated, the Xuanhua axe in his hand would go out, and the moment it collided with Fang Tian's halberd, Xu Huang's brain was stunned.
"A thief dares to compete with someone! Isn't it a joke for the heroes of the world! Lu Bu's eyes flashed with a furious look that had not appeared for many years, and a halberd almost knocked Xu Huang's big axe away, followed by the second halberd, which was somewhat similar to Guan Yu's first three knives, but the power was still excessive.
Xu Huang hurriedly shouted, and raised the axe again to block, this block, his hands were numb, and the big axe in his hand could barely hold it, but Lu Bu had already ridden his horse into the rear, and a Fang Tian painting halberd was picked up, and the cavalry around him cried and shouted for his mother, and the formation began to collapse.
The offensive of nearly a thousand cavalry of the fourteen cavalry was almost crushed, and throughout the ancient and modern times, few people could do it, but at this moment, Lu Bu obviously did it.
After the people and horses on both sides staggered, there were only four scarred iron horsemen left beside Lu Bu, but Lu Bu ignored it, and without waiting for the other party to regroup, he raised the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand and shouted again: "Kill me!" ”
"Kill!" The four scarred iron cavalry once again launched a frantic charge, but the cavalry on the opposite side had not yet completely turned around, and even many cavalry had begun to scatter in all directions.
A flash of horror flashed in Xu Huang's eyes, the desperate Lu Bu was so terrifying, but at this moment, Lu Bu had already rushed to this side with the only remaining four horses, although there were many cavalry around, but when he saw this, he couldn't help but avoid it, so that Lu Bu could not be killed as if he had entered a no-man's land, Xu Huang could not retreat at the moment, he could only fight, it sounded a little ridiculous, under the escort of nearly a thousand people, he had to take the initiative to meet the cavalry of only five people, but it happened.
"Die!" Lu Bu once again killed Xu Huang as he approached, and with a pull of the horse's reins, the Red Rabbit Horse Man stood up, and Fang Tian's halberd turned into a tragic lightning and fell.
"Roar~" Xu Huang opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, poured his arms into his arms, and raised all his strength to face Fang Tian's halberd, he had a feeling that if this halberd could not be stopped, then he would probably have to explain here today.
"Poof~"
There was no earth-shattering sound, Fang Tian drew the halberd this time, like cutting tofu, cutting through the axe shaft made of iron, Xu Huang only felt a cold light in front of him, and then the whole world suddenly separated......
As soon as the main general died, the cavalry around him was intimidated by Lu Bu's might and began to retreat, and two of the four iron horsemen around Lu Bu survived.
"Soldiers, kill with me!"
Lu Bu refused to give up, looking at these scattered and fleeing cavalry, looking at the direction of the crowd, he chased after them with two iron horsemen, and slashed wildly.
When Wei Qi arrived, he saw such an incredible scene, three scarred knights, chasing hundreds of people and cutting them, but hundreds of people didn't even dare to resist, just ran for their lives......
