Chapter 138: Pit Lu Bu once
The cold wind of the early spring night mixed with the light rain blowing on the body can make people shiver in the bones, the outline of the forest is lit up with a tiny fire, the horses hide under the trees to rest, the people hide under the belly of the horses to keep warm, and occasionally the rustling footsteps are heard around, towards the place where the small bonfire is lit.
ββ¦β¦ It doesn't matter what the soldiers are in the surrounding counties...... You have to get rid of Lu Bu behind you. β
"Husband...... The concubine guesses that he has the idea of draining our physical strength...... When people are sleepy, it is his best chance...... Can't give it to him. β
The voice was a little weak and weak, and in the dim light, the woman wrapped in the big curtain moved a few times in the man's arms, and in the dark forest around, several walking figures came, heard the woman's words, and sat down around the fire.
There was not much wine in the sheepskin bag, Hua Xiong unscrewed it and took a sip, and handed it to the strong man with a big waist next to him, "Save it, don't drink it all." Pan Feng nodded, took a sip and handed it to the next person, waving his arm, "...... Damn, it's the first time I've hedged against the cavalry, rushed in and got lost, and couldn't find my way...... If it hadn't been for a guy who stuck his head over and asked me to cut it off, I wouldn't have known what I was doing, or I would have saved Lao Gao. β
The armor on his body that had been worn from Nakayama had long been tattered, and the knife wounds on his waving arm had been left and had become calloused. Compared with Gao Sheng, who was seriously injured, the leaders with slightly higher martial arts skills more or less had some ways to make skin injuries bleed less. While speaking, the rest of the people were relatively silent, after all, although Zhang Yan was killed this time, Shanggu County's strategy was completed, but his own side was also blocked, and at this time, he suddenly turned eastward, and many people were still very confused.
"Chief, let's not vote for General Gongsun, we've been wandering around Jizhou, and it's not a matter for a long time." Throwing a branch into the fire, "Lu Bu is still hanging behind us, like an eye...... It's uncomfortable. β
Hua Xiong kicked him with his toes, signaling not to say this. Leaning on the figure on the side of the tree, Gongsun Zhi put Cai Yan to sleep in a comfortable movement, leaned against the fire, and he also had several new injuries on his body, and the blood penetrated the bandages.
"When I slaughtered Zhang Yan that night, I only mentioned it to Zihe, because the situation was urgent, and I didn't have time to discuss it with everyone......"
He paused in his tone, "The blockade to the north and south must be tight, and the west is a big mountain, and we are all cavalry, and it is easy to be caught up by the enemy's foot soldiers when we go up the mountain, and then we will be entangled, and the battle in the mountains will not be good for us." The only way to go east and then go south to Yanzhou again, Zihe has already contacted Cao Cao, and when we get to the Huangzi River, someone will pick us up to cross the river. β
The branch that had just been thrown into it crackled and burned, and the firelight Huaxiong and the others listened quietly, Yan Rou raised his hand and interjected: "...... I heard that when Cao Cao was begging Dong, he chased Dong Thief alone, and it can be seen that he is also loyal to the Han family, we have killed Liu Yu, will we be eaten by the other party in the past. β
"It's hard to say......" Gongsun Zhi was slightly silent for a moment, staring at the fire on his face, "...... When he was in danger, I also helped...... But let's not talk about this for the time being, for now, we must get Lu Bu's tail away first, otherwise Yuan Shao will always follow us. β
He was injured, coupled with the recent series of battles, after saying this, he was a little tired, and the woman behind him suddenly stretched out her hand to support her back that leaned back slightly, and a smile appeared on her face: "The husband wants to please Lu Bu, the concubine has some ideas here......"
Then, the words circulated in a low voice between several people, and Hua Xiong slapped his palm on Pan Feng's thigh next to him, shouting: "Madame, this idea is good, haha!" also gave Lu Bu a taste of being chased. β
Pan Feng grinned and covered her thighs, squeezing out a smile: "Mrs. ............. That's a good idea...... Hiss ......"
Soon after, the disguised scouts went out on their own.
**********************
Guangchuan, Zhang He, Gao Ran and others led a team of nearly 20,000 people, has come from the water, a little to the northeast is Lu Bu's Bingzhou cavalry, scouts keep spreading around.
The news that kept coming in made the generals who led the army frown.
ββ¦β¦ Why didn't Lu Bu engage Gongsun Zhi? It's just that the news is delivered to us like this, do you want us to fight first? Zhang He is good at adapting to changes, and naturally thinks about a lot of things, and when he gets the news, he can't help but start thinking about it.
Next to him, Gao Ran, who is missing his tongue, doesn't speak, and occasionally whimpers and makes a few sounds, which is considered to be an opinion, as for others to understand, it's another thing to not understand.
After a little rest from the team, Zhang He was about to pretend to sleep to recover his strength, at the end of the rainy night, the sound of horses' hooves came quickly, the figure appeared in the field of vision, and the scouts who came over anxiously reported the content.
"General Qiqi, there is a message from Lu Bu that more than 3,000 cavalry from Gongsun Zhi are less than ten miles away from here, and he is now entangled in the enemy, so please ask the general to come over and intercept it."
"Gongsun Zhi is entangled?!" Zhang He suddenly got up from the ground, turned over on his horse, and beckoned to the knights who were resting nearby, "Get on the horse and intercept them quickly." β
The war horse galloped up and headed east, but soon after, they had not yet arrived, but the expected sound of the fight did not come, under the light of the torches in the distance, the cavalry phalanx of both sides was neat, and the queue was quiet, which made Zhang He who came to feel puzzled, he looked at the two formations of confrontation over there, his eyes were full of doubts, and when the horse's hooves slowly passed, he heard the sound.
"Wen Hou...... You killed Dong Zhuo to get rid of thieves for the country, and I am here to honor you...... You are on the grassland, and the aliens you kill are terrified, and I respect you as well......"
The figure of carrying Fang Tian's halberd was spinning around on horseback, looking at Gongsun Zhi who was talking over there, frowning, but the faintly raised chin, obviously the other party's compliment made him still a little useful. In the team, Zhang Liao stepped forward and whispered: "Don't be careless first, Gongsun Zhi doesn't seem to be like his character when he says this." β
Lu Bu waved his hand indifferently, raised his arm and pointed the halberd to the opposite side, and laughed in a majestic voice: "In the past, you didn't know that I Lu Bu was a small competition in Yanmen County, and then you gave my daughter a rouge horse, and that matter was over, and I, Lu Bu, were not to blame in the past, but outside Luoyang, you threatened my wife and daughter, after all, it must be counted...... Now that you are cornered, you can't go back to Youzhou, why don't you surrender? β
"Surrender...... This one can. There was no hesitation in replying.
Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, Zhang Liao, Wei Xu, and Zhang He, who came from the west, were also stunned, obviously not expecting the other party to agree so simply.
"A few days ago, Wen Hou sent a letter, and I have been thinking twice." Gongsun Zhi's voice sounded again after a moment, and he smiled and looked quite gentle, "...... Seeing that Wen Hou did not attack as promised, and when I replied, I was now moved by Wen Hou's sincerity, so I came to meet the previous one, and I felt that it made sense to conspire with Jizhou that day......"
Zhang Liao's face changed suddenly, and he shouted: "Fengxian, this is a divisive ......"
"Lu Fengxianβ"
A voice roared suddenly from the forest, and Zhang He rushed out of the forest with a gun, "How many days have you hung behind Gongsun Zhi and not attacked, it turned out that you had such an idea?" β
Gongsun Zhi grinned at the corner of his mouth, and turned his horse's head in panic: "There are Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses here, Wen Hou and I will break through quickly, wait for the troops to be together, and then counterattack back." β
As soon as the words fell, Le turned his horse and galloped back to his own position, quickly fleeing with his cavalry. Lu Bu was riding on a horse, and when he saw the angry Yuan Shao's generals, he reacted and wanted to pursue but was stopped by the other party.
"Lu Bu, where else do you want to go?" Zhang He stopped not far from the place where he led the cavalry, and his tone became unkind.
Zhang Liao quickly stepped forward and handed over: "Wen Hou did not do anything out of the ordinary, but Gongsun stopped the discord, General Zhang must not fall for the trick, quickly pursue with me, so as not to lose the trace of the enemy." β
"Wen Hou, is this true?" Zhang He calmed down and looked at the figure holding the halberd over there, but his eyes were still vigilant.
The golden crown trembled, and the figure carrying the halberd rode on horseback and cracked his mouth and laughed: "Hahaha...... Hahaha......" was a little weird, and his eyes raised: "Why do I Lu Bu need to explain to others, why do I need to explain to your Yuan Shao-"
Turning the horse's head, Lu Bu yelled: "Let's go, let's go to Zhang Yang, and we don't need to wag our tail under Yuan Shao and beg for mercy." β
Zhang He clenched the barrel of the gun, and the horse wanted to step forward, but the figure with the halberd turned his gaze, he felt as if his eyes had been pricked, and he was so frightened that he stopped in place, not daring to go any further.
"We're going to chase it ourselvesβ"
Looking at the departing Bingzhou cavalry, Zhang He was unwilling to be tricked, and chased after the other side with his three thousand horsemen.
