Lu Bu is very powerful! Yan Liang admits this, but if Lu Bu is unparalleled in the world, then Yan Liang can't agree. Wen is not the first, Wu is the second, how can Yan Liang be willing to be pressed by Lu Bu. You must know that in Hebei, Yan Liang's name can be said to be a household name, plus Yuan Shao didn't bring Yan Liang when he was the leader of the alliance, what is Lu Bu's martial arts, Yan Liang himself has not been taught, only based on rumors, how can Yan Liang be convinced.

This time he sent troops to Qingzhou, and Yan Liangzheng was a pioneer, one of his purposes was to find out whether Lu Bu, who was rumored to be unparalleled in the martial arts world, really lived up to his reputation.

Because Dong Cheng died too early, Wang Zifu and others did not know how many Qingzhou officials Dong Cheng had convinced, and Yan Liang's vanguard army did not advance the front to Xuzhou before Lü Bu led the army as expected, and when Lü Bu led the army to arrive, Yan Liang was also stopped outside Linzi City by Zhang Xiu's army.

Seeing Lu Bu come to help in person, Yan Liang couldn't help but be excited, he thought that he would only meet Lu Bu when he arrived in Xuzhou, but he didn't expect this Lu Bu to take the initiative to send it to the door. Yan Liang originally wanted to challenge Lu Bu immediately, but when he thought that Lu Bu was in a hurry for days, if he lost, he could say that he was tired of the journey, so Yan Liang waited patiently for a night. In the early morning of the next day, Yan Liang, who had been recuperating all night, immediately led his troops to Linzi City to invite battle, and asked Lu Bu to go out of the city to die.

Lu Bu hadn't met a stunned young man like Yan Liang for some years. Since leaving Chang'an, Lu Bu has not only met a Xu Chu under Cao Cao, that is, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei under Liu Bei, but also made Lu Bu full of fighting spirit. Now that Yan Liang took the initiative to challenge, Lu Bu also wanted to use this to kill Yuan Shaojun's sharpness.

"Boluan, you and I will watch the enemy at the head of the city, and I will come when I go." Lu Bu ordered Zhang Xiu beside him, and he was ready to lead the troops out of the city.

"Don't be careless, that Yan Liang's knife skills are not bad." Zhang Xiu was worried that Lu Bu would underestimate the enemy, so he hurriedly reminded. Before Lu Bu arrived with his troops, Zhang Xiu had already learned Yan Liang's power, so he had a say in Yan Liang's martial arts.

"Well, I remember." Lu Bu answered, turned around and left.

Out of the city, Lu Bu took the lead, and the halberd in his hand pointed at Yan Liang, "Come and get a name, and a certain halberd will not kill the nameless." ”

"Hebei Yan Liang, I have come to teach Lu Wenhou to be powerful." After Yan Liang finished speaking, he patted the horse and killed.

Pure martial artists don't talk so much nonsense, just do it if you don't accept it! See you in your hands! When Lu Bu saw that Yan Liang had killed him, he immediately didn't hesitate, urged the red rabbit under his crotch, and greeted him.

Lu Bu and Yan Liang fought a vicious battle in front of the two county formations, and the soldiers of the two armies who watched the battle were enthusiastic, but Chen Gong, who arrived in Linzi with Lu Bu, called Zhang Xiu at this time and asked in detail about the details of Dong Cheng's incident. Zhang Xiu is the party, Dong Cheng is dead when he dies, Chen Gong wants to find out about this matter, or because Dong Cheng ran Qingzhou for Lu Bu at that time, he is the opposite, I don't know how many people are in the same party. Chen Gong didn't want the backyard to catch fire and be stabbed in the back when Lu Bu and Yuan Shao were in the middle of a fierce battle.

Zhang Xiu didn't dare to snub Chen Gong, although he also wanted to concentrate on watching the fierce battle under the city, but in the face of Chen Gong's inquiry, Zhang Xiu still knew everything and said everything. When Chen Gong stopped asking, the battle under the city was over, Yan Liang was defeated and fled back to the formation, while Lu Bu was only a Liwei in this battle, but he did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but only won and returned to the city.

……

"Gongtai, what did you just say? I didn't hear clearly, you say it again. As soon as Lu Bu, who had returned to the city victoriously, sat down in the county guard's mansion, he heard that the mastermind Chen Gong had made a suggestion to him, and he couldn't help but stare and say.

"Lord, you heard it right, my subordinates suggested that the lord give up Linzi and lead his troops to retreat to Linqu."

“…… Is there a reason? Lu Bu asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, the lord of Fang Cai fought with Yan Liang outside the city, and his subordinates asked Bo Luan about Dong Cheng in detail, and Dong Cheng secretly surrendered to Yuan Shao and plotted to kill Bo Luan's uncle Zhang Ji. Although he was killed by Bo Luan afterwards, it is impossible to find out whether Dong Cheng colluded with others to surrender Yuan Shao. Wang Zifu, Chongji and others have a close relationship with Dong Cheng, and whether they were involved in Dong Cheng's defection to the enemy, we don't know at present. Once they are also Dong Cheng's comrades, then when our army and Yuan Shao suddenly attack, our army will be more auspicious. ”

“…… Do you have proof? ”

"No, but I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if. Lord, if our army is defeated, there will be no place for us in this Central Plains, so we have to be cautious. ”

"Qingzhou can be handed over to Yuan Shao......"

"Lord, if you can defeat Yuan Shao in the future, Qingzhou will still be lost and recovered, and with Yuan Shao's hands, you will drive away people who are not of the same heart as us, isn't this also a good thing?" Seeing this, Chen Gong persuaded.

"What about Yan Liang outside the city? That guy's martial arts are not bad, although the sword skills are not as good as Guan Yu's red-faced thief, but they are not much worse. Lu Bu asked again.

"Don't worry, as long as the lord is willing to give up Linzi, his subordinates promise to cut off one of his arms before Yuan Shao leads the army to arrive." Hearing this, Chen Gong hurriedly packed the ticket and said.

“…… Okay, then it's up to you. Lu Bu pondered for a moment, nodded and agreed to Chen Gong's suggestion.

With Lu Bu's permission, Chen Gong immediately began to arrange. Due to the arrival of Lu Bu's army, Yan Liang took the initiative to lead his troops to retreat twenty miles to the village in order to prevent Lu Bu's attack on the camp, and at the same time strengthened the manpower of night patrols. It's just that what makes Yan Liang wonder is that Lu Bu didn't take the initiative to attack when his troops surpassed him, he just blindly retreated in Linzi City, and only showed up when he led his troops to take the initiative to challenge.

"Is he waiting for the lord's army to arrive?" Yan Liang was puzzled by Lu Bu's actions, and even had a feeling of smelling conspiracy.

After the first fight, Yan Liang already had an intuitive understanding of Lu Bu's martial arts, the facts were frustrating, Yan Liang found that his martial arts were indeed inferior to Lu Bu, perhaps with his own brother-in-law Wen Chou, the two of them could fight with Lu Bu on a par, but it was not easy for him Yan Liang alone to defeat Lu Bu.

Yan Liang, who suffered a loss, did not take the initiative to fight with Lu Bu again, and Linzi City now has a lot of soldiers and horses, and it is not easy to attack the city, in order to avoid unnecessary losses, Yan Liang chose to monitor Linzi and wait for Yuan Shao's army to come and converge. During the day, he still sent people to attack the city to make a show, but the heart to fight to the death was temporarily gone.

This situation lasted for six days, until on the seventh day, Lu Kuang, the deputy general beside Yan Liang, reported to Yan Liang that he had not seen Lu Bu's banner at the head of the city.

"What do you say? Did you read that right? Yan Liang asked immediately after knowing this.

"General, many people in the army have seen this, how dare the last general talk nonsense." Lu Kuang replied with a depressed face.

"I'm not suspicious of you, it's just that it's really strange."

The next day, Yan Liang personally went out to fight and led his troops to Linzi City, but he didn't see Lu Bu's banner, only Zhang Xiu's banner was fluttering in the city. Seeing this, Yan Liang frowned, and urged him to step forward and shout, "Lu Wenhou! Get out of town and fight! ”

"Yan Liang, do you want to be shameless? Take advantage of my father-in-law's absence? Zhang Xiu stood at the head of the city and shouted and scolded.

"Zhang Xiu, where is your Wenhou?"

"Hehe, don't think that others don't have brains if you don't have brains, do you think I'll tell you?" Zhang Xiu sneered loudly.

Yan Liang was furious and immediately ordered the siege of the city, but the result was naturally the same as a few days ago, and he returned in vain. After collecting the troops and returning to the camp, Yan Liang immediately found the two brothers Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang and announced that he was going to attack Linzi tonight.

"General, why this time? The army of the lord will arrive soon......"

"In today's battle, the general has already determined that Lu Bu is not in Linzi at this time, although I don't know where he is now, if he is attacked by him when the lord comes, what do you think the lord will do to you and me?"

"But Linzi City is high and deep, and it is not easy to attack. If there is no internal ......"

"You don't have to worry about this, just do what I say." Yan Liang replied with a confident look. Although Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang didn't know where Yan Liang's confidence came from, Yan Liang was the main general, and once he made a decision, their subordinates could only obey.

In the middle of the night, Yan Liang personally led people to the east gate of Linzi City, and Lu Kuang, who came with Yan Liang, saw that there were not many soldiers at the head of the city, and couldn't help but look at Yan Liang.

You said that someone would come and open the gates, but what about people?

Just when Lu Kuang was muttering to himself, the west gate of Linzi City really opened slowly, and he saw someone waving a torch outside the city.

"Soldiers, kill with me!" Yan Liang shouted violently, and immediately urged the horse to rush over, and Lu Kuang hurriedly waved his hand when he saw this, and led people to follow closely. After completely controlling the city gate, Lu Kuang asked Yan Liang the reason, and saw Yan Liang smile and said: "A few days ago, Wu Zilan, the county guard of Linzi City, sent someone to contact the general and said that he intended to return to Shun, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity. It wasn't until daytime today that Wu Zilan sent someone to inform the general that Lu Bu had led his troops to leave Linzi a few days earlier, and he had also taken over the defense of the west of the city today. ”

When Lu Kuang heard this, he suddenly realized that the fact that Dong Cheng's gang had taken refuge in Yuan Shao was not a secret among the generals in Hebei. Since Wu Zilan acts as the internal response, tonight's things are normal.

"General, did Wu Zilan say where Lu Bu led his troops?"

"I didn't say this, but I found Wu Zilan in a while, and I'll find out if I ask."

Yan Liang was about to enter the city with Lu Kuang, when he heard someone come to report that Lu Xiang, who led the city first, encountered Zhang Xiu's blockade, and asked Yan Liang to immediately lead his troops to rescue. As soon as he heard that his brother was in trouble, Lu Kuang immediately asked for battle. Yan Liang did not refuse, and asked Lu Kuang to rush to support with his own soldiers and horses, while he went to find Wu Zilan to speak.

Due to the help of Wu Zilan, the west and north of Linzi City were lost one after another and fell under the control of Yuan Shaojun. But what made Yan Liang feel wrong was that he had been looking for Wu Zilan for a long time, but he still didn't find Wu Zilan's whereabouts. This Wu Zilan is a newly descended person, and he is a popular person in front of the lord, how could he, a newly descended person, not come to slap himself at this time, could it be that he has something more important? Or was today's event a trap from the beginning?

Thinking of this, Yan Liang couldn't help but be surprised, and the more he thought about it, the more shocked he became, he didn't expect it before, but in case this Wu Zilan had already asked Lu Bu to see through it, and he would lead him into the city, what would ......

Just when Yan Liang was about to withdraw from the city first and wait for the situation to stabilize at dawn before thinking about the next step, he suddenly saw a scout covered in blood rushing over, jumped off the horse and ran to Yan Liang with a roll, and said what Yan Liang was most worried about.

The camp was attacked, and the 5,000 men and horses who stayed in the camp were killed and scattered, and now the Lu Bu army that attacked the camp is rushing here to kill. After hearing this, Yan Liang ordered the whole army to withdraw from Linzi City immediately. If you don't go, you can't go! At present, although there are two gates in Linzi City that have been taken by themselves, the problem is that they can enter the city tonight, which is caused by Lu Bu's military strategy. There is still Lu Bu's army in the city, and it is impossible to resist the city and defend it, once the Lu Bu army outside the city is called to block himself in the city, he can't run even if he wants to.

Yuan Shaojun, who was approaching the center of the city, was puzzled at first when he received Yan Liang's order to retreat, but then Lu Bujun's counterattack made them realize that something was wrong. Although Lü Bu's army was also resisting before, the degree was not fierce, and Yuan Shao's army advanced slowly, but it was always advancing. But now Lu Bujun's counterattack is much more fierce than before, and it is like two people.

Yan Liang was still a step late after all, and let the soldiers and horses led by Lu Bu block the west gate.

"Kill it!" Yan Liang roared angrily, and rushed straight out first, but when he rushed out of the city gate, he met Lu Bu head-on.

"Lu Bu! Come on! Yan Liang waved the big knife in his hand and rushed towards Lu Bu. At this time, Lu Bu was not Lu Bu when he fought with Yan Liang in front of the two armies before, Lu Bu still had spare strength in his hands at that time, but now he has taken out ten out of ten skills.

The swords and halberds intersected, Yan Liang suddenly felt bad, but now the only way to escape is to pass Lu Bu's level, so he can only brace his spirits and fight fiercely with Lu Bu, hoping to take the opportunity to escape.

And Yan Liang, the backbone of Yuan Shaojun, was stopped by Lu Bu, and the remaining Yuan Shaojun was suddenly leaderless, and the two brothers Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang let Zhang Xiu and Cao Xing stop them, and Chen Gong commanded Lu Bu's army to divide Yuan Shao's army and eliminate them one by one. Yan Liang found that the people around him were fighting less and less, and the desire to go became stronger and stronger.

Lu Bu faced Yan Liang's life-for-life style of play, so he had to temporarily retreat, Yan Liang did not hesitate when he saw this, and immediately turned his horse and left. Lu Bu was furious, immediately took a bow and an arrow, and as soon as his right hand was released, he heard the sound of arrow strings, and Yan Liang, who had already fled, screamed and hugged the saddle.

"Damn!" Lu Bu urged the horse to chase after him, but was stopped by Chen Gong, "Lord, poor Kou Mo chase, the matter is important." ”

"Gongtai, don't raise tigers."

"Lord, I just received the news that Yuan Shao's army will stop in a few days, so we should withdraw our troops first. That Yan Liang spared his life for the time being, and there was a chance in the future. Chen Gong shook his head and persuaded.

“…… Well, it's up to you. ”

……

Not to mention that Lu Bu's entire army retreated to Linqu, but only that Yan Liang fled alone. Yan Liang didn't dare to look back, but just urged the horse to gallop wildly, until the war horse was physically exhausted and fell to the ground, and Yan Liang gradually calmed down.

I have to say that Yan Liang's luck is good, Lu Bu's archery skills are not bad, only slightly inferior to Huang Zhong in comparison, Yan Liang was able to escape under Lu Bu's arrows, it can only be said that his life is great. The arrow wound was not serious, but it only injured his left arm, Yan Liang bandaged it casually, and then began to think about what he should do next?

Now that he has lost contact with the army, he has become a bare-bones commander, so he goes back like this, and it is still a trivial matter to lose face, for fear of losing Yuan Shao's trust. But apart from going back to Yuan Shao, Yan Liang couldn't think of where else he could go for a while. Incognito? Yan Liang refused to accept it.

After thinking about it, Yan Liang had no choice but to go and ask Yuan Shao for his guilt. After all, there is still a chance to be ashamed after going back, but if you don't go back, you won't even have a chance.

Yan Liang refused to go back alone, but fortunately, there were many people who were killed and scattered by Lu Bujun, Yan Liang slowly gathered the defeated soldiers, and by the time it was dark, Yan Liang already had more than 500 people around him. With these more than 500 people, Yan Liang has a little confidence. Especially after learning that Lu Bujun had led his troops to leave Linzi and retreat south, Yan Liang's heart was even more relaxed.

I tried to send someone to investigate the situation in Linzi at this time, and reported that there were three heads hanging on the head of the city, one of whom I didn't know, and the remaining two belonged to Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang. However, the city gate of Linzi City is now open, except for the west of the city with the head of the city, no one dares to leave, and there are many people who are fleeing with their families in the remaining three city gates.

Yan Liang didn't dare to be careless after getting the reward, at this time there were almost 3,000 people around him, Yan Liang immediately ordered people to go to the city gate to block people, and waited until the people who didn't have time to go out of the city were blocked in the city for half a day and didn't see Lu Bujun appear, Yan Liang then appeared in front of Linzi City with the rest of the people.

Linzi City was successful, and Yan Liang was unable to pursue, so he could only watch Lu Bu's army retreat south. Is this good news? After thinking about it, Yan Liang finally decided to report it according to the truth and ask Yuan Shao for his guilt.

……

Rinzjeseong-gun Governor's Office

Yuan Shao was talking to the newly descended Wang Zilan and Chongji, when he saw Frustrated Zhu running in with a happy face, and as soon as he entered the door, he congratulated Yuan Shao and said: "Lord, great joy, General Yan has sent back the good news, Linzi City has been taken, Lu Bu led his troops to flee south in a hurry, and General Yan came to ask if he was pursuing?" ”

"Huh?" Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and immediately said with a happy face: "Okay, good, Yan Liang really lived up to someone's expectations and did a good job." ”

Wang Zilan and Chongji are both knowledgeable people, and when they saw that Yuan Shao was going to discuss a major matter with Fu Zhu, the two hurriedly left. Yuan Shao sent the two out of the house with a smile, and then his face changed, and he asked the frustrated teacher beside him: "Gonghe, what happened to Yan Liang?" ”

“…… Lord, he was defeated by Lu Bu, and there are only 3,000 men left under his command. ”

"Then what do you say about breaking through Linzi?"

"The blame is here, after Lu Bu defeated Yan Liang, he did not chase and kill, but led his troops to retreat south and retreat to Linqu. After Yan Liang collected the defeated troops, he found that Linzi was unguarded, so he took Linzi. ”

"......" Yuan Shao was silent for a while before he said to Fu Zhu: "Gonghe, don't spread this matter, and order Yan Liang to return to Hebei with the remnants." ”

"Lord, Yan Liang is brave, why not leave him to serve in front of the tent, after all, his subordinates are worried that he will not be able to defeat Lu Bu with the strength of Wen Chou alone." Hearing this, he suggested.
