Chapter 140: Cao Cao's Heritage!
Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren obviously learned from Cao Hong's previous experience, and made a defensive posture when facing Lu Bu, so that they would not be unprepared when Lu Bu broke out.
However, Lu Bu turned a blind eye to the two of them's full vigilance, and the red rabbit horse that stepped down did not show the slightest sign of slowing down from beginning to end, and just rushed straight ahead of the two enemy generals.
When Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren saw Lu Bu's arrogance in their eyes, not only did they not feel angry because they were despised, but they sweated a little on their foreheads because of nervousness.
Because the two of them are only at the peak of their innateness, but they can feel that Lu Bu has reached the middle stage of the grandmaster!
"Phew!" Lu Bu's halberd was raised high and stabbed towards Cao Renzhi's head, who was closer to him.
A halberd stabbed out, as if driving the thunder of the nine heavens!
Cao Ren didn't dare to be the slightest contempt, and the spear in his hand was also swung with all his strength to resist.
With the sound of the "bell", the moment the weapons of the two sides intersected, Cao Ren suddenly felt an instant numbness in his wrist, and even the people and horses were shocked back several steps.
Xiahou Yuan's martial arts are higher than Cao Ren's, and when he saw this, he was afraid that Cao Ren would lose, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help, but he saw Lu Bu waving several halberds, and the halberd beckoned to Xiahou Yuan's vital point, and soon forced Xiahou Yuan aside.
After forcing the two of them back quickly, Lu Bu didn't even entangle with them much, but just drove his horse forward.
And the army behind him did not stop for a moment, like a torrent, ignoring all obstacles in front of him.
Lu Bu's goal was very clear - that was Cao Cao's head, and he had no intention of wasting a moment of time on others before he obtained Cao Cao's head.
The soldiers and horses behind Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan combined to nearly 20,000, and they brandished the weapons in their hands to kill the Lu Bujun in front of them.
Although it did cause many casualties among the soldiers of Lu Bu's army, as long as Lu Bu's footsteps did not stop, the army behind him would always follow him.
I saw that Cao's army's military formation was gradually torn apart, and the distance between Lu Bu's army and Cao Cao's army was getting closer and closer.
Although Lu Bu's 15,000 army had lost nearly half of it at this time, Cao Cao, who was in the middle army, couldn't help but sit still when he saw that the enemy army was getting smaller and smaller from him.
"Dian Wei should be able to stop that crazy Lu Bu."
Cao Cao prayed silently in his heart.
Now Dian Wei was also desperately slapping his horse and rushing towards Lu Bu, he originally thought that with the strength of Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan, he should be able to barely delay him for a while.
Unexpectedly, Lu Bu didn't pay much attention to the two of them at all, and still led the army directly to Cao Cao's army, Lu Bu was too dangerous, and he must not be allowed to get close to Cao Cao's side!
However, when Dian Wei had not yet arrived in front of Lu Bu, Lu Bu's progress had been effectively blocked.
A long sword shuttled back and forth in front of Lu Bu, exuding a little murderous aura and battle intent.
Emperor Wang Yue!
"Roar! Thief old man! It's you again! Get out of here! ”
Lu Bu let out a loud cry in his mouth, Lu Bu, who had fought with Wang Yue many times, naturally knew that Wang Yue's swordsmanship was exquisite, and he thought that he should be able to repel him by fighting with horses today, but he didn't expect it to be a big surprise to him.
In peacetime, Lu Bu would have the interest of fighting to the death, but now Lu Bu has the primary goal of killing Cao Cao in all his actions.
He didn't have the intention of fighting in this relationship, so he used all his strength to attack the other party with his halberd, intending to force him back slightly, and then immediately galloped forward and continued to run.
Wang Yue's swordsmanship moves are subtle and unpredictable, not to mention its most profound point is the guidance and control of the "potential", the peak realm of the grandmaster, so that he is not afraid of Lu Bu's innate divine power at all.
In the face of Lu Buba's invincible attack, Wang Yue's counterattack was neither simply to resist the Fang Tian Halberd in Lu Bu's hand, nor was it to save the enemy.
However, the target of his move was chosen correctly, and he was able to cut off Lu Bu's "momentum" with great accuracy, thus successfully blocking Lu Bu's offensive.
In terms of combat effectiveness, although the elderly Wang Yue is strong, he is not as good as Lu Bu after all, if Lu Bu can put away his impatience at this time, and fight with Wang Yue with a pure battlefield fighting mentality.
Although Wang Yue's swordsmanship is profound, there will be a moment when he will be powerful in front of Lu Bu, but at this time, all Lu Bu wants is to get out of the other party's entanglement as soon as possible.
The moves are extremely powerful, but they are also very direct and easy to understand. At this time, Wang Yue's method of dealing with Lu Bu was completely based on the words "dragging" and "entanglement", and the purpose was to no longer allow him to advance an inch.
"You guys, don't stop, keep rushing me!"
Lu Bu now also knew that he might not be able to take down the old man in front of him for a while, although he was angry in his heart, he was helpless, so he could only take advantage of the gap between attack and defense to shout loudly to the army in the rear.
The soldiers looked at each other, and at this time, Lu Bu fell into the "quagmire", and they didn't know what to do.
"Rush with me! It is the right time to take the head of the thief to build a great deed! ”
But Lu Bujun's silence did not last long, and he saw that a general quickly rode his horse to the front of the whole army, shouting at the whole army, this general is Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan!
It's just that although Zhang Liao's ability is good, he is still a little young after all, and his prestige in the army is not as good as Lu Bu's, although he takes Lu Bu's place at this time.
But behind him, only nearly 5,000 soldiers and horses followed him to Cao Cao's army, and Gao Shun's camp was trapped, and more than 4,000 people did not obey his call and stayed in place.
Although Lu Bu wanted to scold them and let them attack with Zhang Liao, the battle between him and Wang Yue had become white-hot, and if he wanted to take care of other things, he was also powerless at this time.
In fact, Zhang Liao's choice may not be correct, if he does this, Lu Bu's army will be divided into two teams, and the combat strength of either side will be damaged.
Zhang Liao's senior shun added up to less than 6,000 people, and it was even more difficult to get close to Cao Cao's side, and the 4,000 people around Lu Bu were even more difficult to defend against the siege of Cao's army.
But now there is no other way, if Cao Cao does not give the head, the army will be defeated!
Of course, Zhang Liao can also choose to help Lu Bu defeat Wang Yue early, and even let Zang Ba and others go together.
But he knew that even if Lu Bu was extremely eager to take Cao Cao's head, his absolute self-esteem as the world's number one fierce general would not fade at any moment.
He could tolerate being besieged by several men, and he would even enjoy the feeling, but he would never bear to be helped by his own people while he was fighting.
Not even in the most urgent cases! Zhang Liao admired Lu Bu and admired his self-esteem.
"Block them!"
In the formation of Cao's army, Yu Ban, Le Jin, Li Dian and others led their troops to block in front of Lu Bu's army at this time.
In the formation of Lu Bu's army, Song Xian, Wei Xu, Cheng Lian, Hao Meng and other generals also rode out one after another, fighting with the Cao generals who blocked the army.
In the chaos, the Cao army and the Lu Bu army fought against each other, and the generals fought against the generals.
And Zhang Liao, who was leading at the front, didn't care about all the surrounding conditions, but just rode his horse to Cao Cao's place.
"Don't want to go one step further!" Suddenly, a loud shout came from the front, almost breaking Zhang Liao's eardrums.
I saw a burly body, a fierce face, and a pair of iron halberds, which was Dian Wei who came from Cao Cao.
Zhang Liao has never seen Dian Wei, but he himself is a person with outstanding martial arts, and he is already in the early stage of the grandmaster, so he can judge at a glance that this evil man in front of him is very difficult to deal with, and the realm is definitely above him!
Zhang Liao didn't want to be entangled by others at the moment, but he knew very well that once he fought with the enemy general in front of him, he would definitely not be able to get out for a while.
"Xuan Gao help me!"
Zhang Liao shouted to Zang Ba on the side.
Zang Ba understood Zhang Liao's intentions, and he wanted to be a meat shield himself, stopping the strong man in front of him, so that he could have a chance to continue to advance.
However, Zang Ba did not object, but went straight to Dian Wei, he was very clear about the current situation, Cao Cao was not dead, and there was no chance of victory in this battle!
Zhang Liao's martial arts are better than himself, and creating an opportunity for him to get close to Cao Cao is to create the possibility of victory in this battle.
"Bell"
There was a loud bang, but the moment the weapons of the two sides came into contact, Zang Ba suddenly knew that he would never be able to stop Dian Wei, who was actually as powerful as his lord! And he is the innate pinnacle, and suddenly Zang Ba's face changed suddenly.
Zhang Liao also saw the first encounter between the two, and immediately understood that if Zang Ba was really allowed to face the enemy general, I am afraid that he would become a dead soul within ten times.
"General Hou, General Gao, and go to help Xuangao!"
Hou Cheng in the middle of the congenital stage and Gao Shun at the peak of the innate are now the only generals who follow behind him, if they are sent out again, the only soldiers left around him are really ordinary soldiers.
But Zhang Liao had no choice, although the relationship between several generals under Lu Bu was not particularly good, it was not bad.
Cao Cao's head is certainly his primary target, but Zhang Liao can't bear to watch Zang Ba die in vain.
Hou Cheng Gaoshun heard Zhang Liao's shout, and did not hesitate, and immediately went to help Zang Ba.
And Zhang Liao did not stop, and rode his horse straight forward. Although Dian Wei had the intention to block it, although Zang Ba and Hou Cheng Gaoshun were not as good as Dian Wei, they were also three to one, plus eight hundred traps.
In this case, Dian Wei may also fall if he is not careful, after all, the trap camp composed of heavy armor soldiers is not easy to bully, and Dian Wei can only watch Zhang Liao pass by him.
"With Shi Ah by the lord's side, it shouldn't be fine......"
Zhang Liao had already gone away, and Dian Wei could only retract his mind and resist the attacks from all directions around him.
In the gallop along the way, the soldiers behind him were either cut down by Cao's army, or fell behind due to lack of foot strength, and now there are probably less than 300 people who are still following this Zhang Liao.
But what made Zhang Liao happy was that the distance between himself and Cao Cao was getting closer and closer, and even Cao Cao's figure could be clearly reflected in his eyes.
Less than 100 steps away! Looking at Cao Cao under the banner of Xuan, Zhang Liao felt that the blood was constantly surging, as long as he could cross the distance of a hundred steps, he stabbed the spear in his hand into his chest.
Then he will make a great achievement and become famous all over the world, and Lu Bujun can also get out of the predicament in one fell swoop, using Yanzhou as a base, in order to compete in the world!
However, the pressure within a hundred paces is not a fraction of the increase compared to the previous distance.
Cao Cao's guards were all martial artists in the training period, and 800 people went out to block Zhang Liao's 300 people.
The people who can be selected to defend Cao Cao's side are naturally the elite of one in a hundred, and their combat power is not even far behind Gao Shun's trapped camp.
Like a torrent hitting a dam, the momentum of Zhang Liao and the others' advance was suddenly blocked.
Although he had long expected that the combat effectiveness of Cao Cao's personal guards might be raised to a higher level, Zhang Liao still didn't expect that the other party would be as strong as this.
The three hundred people behind him had run all the way from Puyang City to here, and they had to constantly deal with Cao Jun's attacks on the way, and their physical strength was almost exhausted.
And Cao Cao's personal defense was originally a training period, to defeat the soldiers of Lu Bu's army, and they were waiting for work, so as soon as the two sides came into contact, most of the soldiers behind Zhang Liao were cut down.
At this time, Zhang Liao's eyes were already red, and he kept waving the spear in his hand to pierce the body of the enemy soldier in front of him.
If you only talk about the standard of soldiers, Cao Cao's personal guards can be called elite, but they are not worth mentioning in front of brave generals like Zhang Liao.
Three, five, ten...... Zhang Liao didn't need to know how many people he had killed, the only thing he needed to know was: as long as someone dared to stand in the way between him and Cao Cao, then he had to wipe them all out!
"I didn't expect that in Lu Bu's army, in addition to Lu Bu himself, there would be such a brave general!"
Cao Cao had long noticed Zhang Liao, who was constantly killing like a mad tiger, so he sighed.
Knowing that it is impossible to do it, sometimes it is simple and foolish, and sometimes it is a manifestation of bravery.
Zhang Liao's actions are the latter in Cao Cao's opinion, and Cao Cao, who loves talent like life, has already taken Zhang Liao into account at this time.
"The last general is willing to kill this fang for the lord!"
Cao Cao's praise of the enemy general made Shi A feel a little unhappy in his heart.
Since only the group of people in front of them rushed here at the end of their lives, it means that the other Lu Bu soldiers will already be blocked in the rear, and even if they attack by themselves, the safety of the lord will not be hindered. After confirming this, Xu Chu asked Cao Cao for battle.
"Shi'a, can you capture him alive?"
Cao Cao smiled and asked.
When Xu Chu heard this, he didn't say much, but responded very simply and powerfully: "No! ”
"Coming and going crazy! I'm here to fight you! ”
When Zhang Liao saw that it was a chivalrous man running towards him, the bloodshot in his eyes receded slightly, and was replaced by a wry smile on the corner of his mouth.
He knew that it would be hopeless to take Cao Cao's head......
Hate! Why is it that Cao thief who is so lucky, and there are fierce generals around him, appearing one after another and blocking the road of the self-army charge!?
"Oh yes!!!"
But now, I have no choice, can I still go back and withdraw? Whether it's an opponent or not, you can only fight hard!
There are many fierce generals in the Three Kingdoms, but there are not many generals whose strength is in the realm of grandmasters, but both Shi A and Dian Wei are in this ranks. Although Zhang Liao is brave, there is still a gap between him and these two killing gods.
Shi A's swordsmanship is extraordinary, and fighting is purely a typical example of borrowing strength.
Zhang Liao was able to defend with his exquisite moves at first, but after a long time, Shi A began to be caught off guard after seeing through the marksmanship.
Shi A was full of spirits, and launched an uninterrupted onslaught at Zhang Liao sword after sword, and with each sword, Zhang Liao could feel a cut from himself!
Could it be that at this moment, this place on the outskirts of Puyang is destined to become the place where Lu Bu's army was destroyed and the place where thousands of Lu Bu's soldiers are buried?
