Chapter 20: Lu Bu kills Ding Yuan
Zhao Yue didn't answer Cao Ping, because he couldn't run at this time. In four places, there were already six sergeants staring at him. Gripping the weapon in his hand, he was ready to die in battle.
Zhao Yue was resolute in his heart, for Xing Yi, who stood up for Tanguchi that day, for Liu Zheng, who was oppressed but still stood up in the palace, for the so-called loyalty in his heart!
The clothes were already soaked, Zhao Yue's skin felt the cold baptism of the rain, but the position of his heart did not feel this way, he looked down, it turned out to be the thing wrapped in red silk, he had carried him in his arms before, and he was able to keep his heart warm at this time, he was really lucky.
Zhao Yue touched the thing in her heart, closed her eyes and thought about her mother in her hometown, and finally opened her eyes and rushed towards the six people......
In front of the formation of the Bingzhou army, Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun did not participate in the fight, they retained their physical strength, and prepared to wait for the Xiliang army to arrive before killing it in one fell swoop.
At this time, Zhang Liao was discussing this war with Gao Shun.
"Brother Changping," Zhang Liao said, "you see that in this battle, the Han army is almost one-sided, while the soldiers of our army almost penetrate their formation, completely scattering them, so that each of them has to fight alone, what do you think?" ”
Gao Shun smiled disdainfully: "Does Wen Yuan know the art of using soldiers?" ”
"I still hope that Changping will advise." Zhang Liao clenched his hands into fists and respectfully asked.
Gao began to say by the way: "Soldiers, people, people, sex." Life in heaven and earth, you need to have sustenance in your heart, and with sustenance, you will be able to focus on the goal and fight hard, which is the case with soldiers. ”
Gao Shun said as he slowly drove forward with Lu Bu and Zhang Liao, went deep into the battlefield of the fight, and as a bystander, he easily watched the surrounding Bingzhou army massacre the Han army.
Gao Shunyu immediately looked around the battlefield and continued: "General Wenyuan, Lord Fengxian, in my opinion, there are four types of soldiers. The first is a loyal and courageous soldier of the people, an army that wins a hundred battles, and this army is easily invincible; The second is that the soldier who cherishes his wife and family is small and sacrifices his life for family affection is also a Jedi army, and this army is difficult to win for a while, so it needs to be surrounded and slowed down; The third is to remember the school drills, listen to the generals' orders, display martial arts, and try to win the soldiers, which are regular soldiers, and this army can fight with morale; Fourth, the soldiers who have no care in their hearts and are only bent on fleeing for their lives are the defeated army of heaven, and even if the army is numerous, it is like a mustard. ”
After hearing this, Lu Bu patted the back of the red rabbit horse that had just been captured, turned to look at Gao Shun, and said: "Changping is worthy of being a strong general who has trained the 'trapped camp' army, and he really has a subtle insight into the command of the army. ”
Gao Shun smiled, and just wanted to say thanks, but he was suddenly shocked, because he saw such a scene:
In the pouring rain, an ordinary Han soldier fought against six soldiers with the strength of one person, and there were already several wounds on his body, but he still fought hard against the cold wind. A halberd in his hand, waving in the rain, made the six people dare not step forward easily.
Gao Shun was instantly terrified, and said in his mouth: "God, what kind of person is this, who has such a will!?" ”
That person is Zhao Yue, he has long forgotten about life and death at this time, and only wants to do what a soldier should do, and what he has in his heart is the "loyalty" that Gao Shun said.
Zhao Yue should be glad that he is different from the other Han armies, the other Han armies have not been trained, let alone seen the scene of fighting, but he is different, he received separate training under Liu Zheng, although he is not superb in swordsmanship, but he is also proficient.
He even witnessed the scene where Xing Yi was killed in battle, and Zhang Duan and Liu Zheng were injured in battle, and the courage and pride in his heart at this time were not inferior to that of a veteran who had experienced a hundred battles, or a general.
Zhang Liao saw that Gao Shun was dumbfounded, and hurriedly followed Gao Shun's gaze, and when he saw this scene, his heart was also "groaning", and he sighed: "Such as ...... If tens of thousands of Han soldiers are like this person, then at this time, we are afraid that the corpses of thousands of soldiers in the state will already be all over the field! ”
Gao Shun was speechless in surprise, but he saw Lu Bu on the side suddenly slam the red rabbit horse, and a red fiery figure quickly crossed the battlefield.
"Lord Bongxian, what are you going to do?"
Zhang Liao saw that Lu Bu's face was not good, and he was so anxious, as if something big had happened, and hurriedly shouted loudly on the horse.
The red rabbit under Lu Bu's seat was as fast as lightning, and by the time Zhang Liao spoke, he had already rushed out dozens of steps, coupled with the wind and rain, he couldn't hear Zhang Liao's words at all.
"Choke!"
Zhao Yue's halberd was inserted on the wet sand, and he made a faint sound, he was so tired that he was panting, squatting on the ground, and he really didn't have the strength to stand up.
His eyes were bloodshot, Zhao Yue's chest fell together, panting heavily, and in front of him, the six soldiers of the state waved their weapons together and pressed up.
Zhao Yue was exhausted, closed his eyes in despair, and only used his arm to block, but suddenly heard a crisp sound of metal colliding in his ears. Zhao Yue wondered in his heart, opened his eyes suspiciously, and found a huge Fang Tian painting halberd in front of him, blocking six weapons for him.
The red tassel of Fang Tian's halberd swayed slightly in the wind at this time, and a little rain dripped on his face.
It was Lu Bu, who appeared in front of Zhao Yue on a red rabbit horse and saved his life. But the six soldiers around him were puzzled: how could their general suddenly behave like this?
Zhang Liao and Gao Shun drove forward immediately, and finally arrived at this time, and they were also stunned, not understanding why Lu Bu did this.
Lu Bu didn't have time to explain, he was just doing what he thought should be done, and with a slight force, Fang Tian's halberd blocked the six weapons together.
The six soldiers had never seen such force before, and they fell heavily in the rain.
Lu Bu looked at Zhao Yue, opened his mouth, and just wanted to speak.
Behind him, there was a sudden stern reprimand from an old man, which pierced through the rain curtain and became even more harsh.
"Lu Bu, are you going to rebel! Well? Lu Bu! ”
During the Three Kingdoms period, people called each other, called each other more words, and called themselves names. This is because they believe that the name will bring good luck to people, and the name will bring calamity, so they only say the name when they call themselves, which means to keep the calamity to themselves and bring good luck to others.
There are exceptions to this situation, that is, the person being called does not have a word, or the relationship between the two is not very good.
It can be seen that this person who shouted Lu Bu's name and did not add any title was really angered by Lu Bu.
He is none other than Lu Bu's stepfather, Ding Yuan.
When the two armies were fighting, Ding Yuan came out of the tent, he rode a horse to watch the fighting scene in the rear of the Bingzhou army, only to see Lu Bu rushing to the opposite side like a disorder, and he felt strange in his heart, so he came to find out, but he didn't expect to see this scene.
Lu Bu didn't have time to argue, and suddenly there was an overwhelming shout in front of him.
"Xiliang children, enter the battle and slaughter all the people of Bingzhou!"
It turned out that Dong Zhuo, who had followed the army to this expedition, heard that Li Su had been beheaded and the red rabbit horse had been captured, so he hurriedly urged Hu Zhen and Duan Xuan to lead the Xiliang soldiers to fight. Hu and Duan led their troops to kill them.
In the panic, Ding Yuan and his three generals had to temporarily avoid the edge, turn back, and collect their troops to return to the battle. Zhao Yue also took advantage of the Xiliang soldiers to survive and staggered back to Dong Jun's camp in the rain.
After Ding Yuan and the others came to safety, he immediately ordered Zhang Liao and Gao Shun to reorganize the formation of the state army and fight a decisive battle with the Xiliang army. Lu Bu was called by him to the camp tent in Pinggang Village and asked.
Inside the big tent, the sound of rainwater dripping on the tent was clearly recognizable, and a bonfire was also lit in front of Ding Yuan's desk, bringing a comfortable temperature to the entire tent.
Lu Bu stood at the door of the big tent wet, holding the helmet he had just taken off in his right hand, with a sad and somewhat depressed face.
Ding Yuan also took off his soaked robe, hung it behind him, and then sat on the chair, slapped the table, and scolded angrily: "Rebel Lu Bu, tell me what you have done?" Why did you save the soldiers of the Han Army? ”
Lu Bu stepped forward slowly, and explained calmly: "Father-in-law, you don't know, that person once saved me in the west of Luoyang City, and even the pair of Feiyun boots I wore under my feet were given by him, so I ...... Therefore I cannot watch him die at the hands of the soldiers I lead. I don't think this was done by a righteous person. ”
After hearing this, Ding Yuan not only did not dissipate his anger, but became even more annoyed, and scolded angrily: "You erection, you are really stupid, why did he give you combat boots for no reason?" I must want to entrap you to work hard for that Dong Zhuo, fool! ”
Lu Bu didn't dare to disobey Ding Yuan, so he could only aggrieved: "Father-in-law, you may be wrong to blame him, when the two of us met, they hadn't met, and he didn't know my skills, this is one of them; Second, even I never thought that I would face him with a sword in the future! ”
"Hmph," Ding Yuan snorted disdainfully, squinted his eyes, touched his white beard, and said slyly: "I said that in the palace of the Han Dynasty that day, you were obviously able to break into the stage and kill Dong Zhuo, but you didn't do that, you must have already collaborated with the enemy, right?" Look at today, you actually saved the enemy soldiers, and injured your own soldiers, what a bad animal! ”
After saying that, Ding Yuan's eyes suddenly widened, and he threw a copper lamp on the table at Lu Bu, Lu Bu dodged, the copper lamp fell to the ground, and the flame slowly extinguished.
When Ding Yuan saw this, he was furious and said loudly: "Okay, you still dare to hide, come here, drag this rebel out of the tent and behead the public!" ”
Hearing Ding Yuan's order, four strong men armed with big knives broke into the tent, and they were the people in the army who were specially responsible for execution.
When the four men entered, the door of the tent was lifted up in the wind and rain, and the flames of the bonfire in the tent swayed from side to side.
"Father-in-law!" Lu Bu knelt on the ground and said affectionately: "I have joined my father-in-law for more than ten years, I am definitely loyal, and I have not done anything unfaithful, why is my father-in-law so unkind!" ”
Ding Yuan was angry, stood up, pointed at Lu Bu and scolded: "What do I want you to do, is loyalty important, or is my hegemony important?" As soon as these words came out, Ding Yuan was stunned for a moment, maybe he felt that he had said the wrong thing, but he was angry, and he was not prepared to hide anything, after all, he thought that his ambition and hegemony were indeed more important than the loyalty in Lu Bu's mouth.
Lu Bu was held by four strong men on the shoulders and knelt on the ground, unable to move.
After listening to Ding Yuan's words, he was expressionless and asked coldly: "As my father-in-law said, I shouldn't save that person today, but should I kill him?" ”
"Not bad!" Ding Yuan said sharply.
"Even if he saved me?"
"Not bad!" Ding Yuan replied decisively again.
"Even if he gives me boots without expecting anything in return?"
Ding Yuan was a little impatient, and simply said, "Is my son stupid or stupid?" You need to know that there is no eternal loyalty in this world, there is only hegemony, the hegemony of the father! Ding Yuan said, stood up, and opened his mind, as if he was wandering around when he put on a dragon robe and sat on the dragon chair.
Lu Bu understood, smiled helplessly, and said slowly: "I, Lu Bu, am a martial artist, I don't have any resourcefulness, and I don't know what power skills, but I know that those who are generals need to be loyal, and those who are others need to be righteous, so that they can stand in the world and not be criticized by others." ”
"Ding Yuan ......" Lu Bu hesitated for a moment, called Ding Yuan's name, and continued, "You and I are not biological father and son, I obey you as my 'father', there is loyalty, you are like my father, you don't talk about loyalty, why should I be a general in the hands of a small man like you, slaughtering those truly loyal people, wouldn't it be shamed by the people of the world!" ”
When Ding Yuan heard this, he was taken aback and scolded: "Lu Bu, do you really want to rebel? ”
Lu Bu didn't answer, just shook his body vigorously, and got rid of the four strong men, he flew up, kicked down one person, snatched the big knife in his hand, and went straight to Ding Yuan.
Ding Yuan watched Lu Bu approach step by step, showing a look of fear, and while hurriedly looking for his sword, he said in surprise: "You...... You're really going to kill me! ”
As soon as the words fell, Lu Bu rushed forward with an arrow step, and his sword fell......
Ding Yuan's head rolled to the ground, and the body left behind slowly leaned back, leaving a pool of blood in the big tent.
Lu Bu walked over calmly, picked up the head of the old master Ding Yuan, threw down the bloodstained knife, and walked out of the tent step by step......
