Chapter 222: Lu Bu Pocao
Lu Bu's name as the world's number one fierce general is definitely not fake, a Fang Tian painting halberd is really superb, with one enemy and four can maintain an undefeated situation, five people turn the lamp like a fight, smoke and dust everywhere, difficult to solve.
Cao ** sighed under the banner: "Lu Bufei is not an enemy alone!" If I have such a fierce general, why worry about Yanzhou! ”
Speaking unintentionally, listening but intentionally, Cheng Yu suddenly remembered a person when he heard the words, and said: "Lu Bu is just an unrighteous person, and if he gets it, he is in danger of killing the master, Yu recommends one person, but he can defeat Lu Bu!" ”
Cao ** was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Who is Zhongde talking about?" Come on! ”
Cheng Yu said: "Two hundred miles away from here, there is a Xu family in Qian County, which is a local wang family, and there is a strong man named Xu Chu in the clan, the word Zhongkang, because it ranks second, so it is also called Xu Er. His body was more than eight feet long, his waist was ten girths, his appearance was majestic, his courage was unparalleled, and he gathered thousands of strong men and people in the local area to build Wu Fort to resist the invasion of thieves. At that time, more than 10,000 thieves attacked Xu Chu in Runan, Xu Chu was outnumbered, exhausted from the battle, and ran out of arrows, so he ordered both men and women to go to Dashi to defend against the enemy. When the enemy soldiers rushed up, Xu Chu Feishi retreated, so the thieves did not dare to approach. Until the grain was about to run out, Xu Chu pretended to make peace with the thief and discussed exchanging cattle for food. After the thieves moved the cattle away, they ran back by themselves, Xu Chu went to the front of the battle, pulled the tail of the cow and walked more than 100 steps, the thieves were frightened and did not dare to come to fetch the cattle again. Since then, Xu Chu is known as Zhenhuai, Ru, Chen, and Liang, and everyone knows the name of his bravery. If the lord can recruit this person, why worry that no one can defeat Lu Bu? ”
Cao ** was surprised and delighted when he heard this, and stroked his palms and said, "There is such a character? Why didn't Zhongde say it earlier? ”
Cheng Yu said embarrassedly: "That Xu Chu is the most loyal and filial piety, as the saying goes: 'Parents are here, don't travel far!'" 'Yuan Shao, Tao Qian, Liu Xuan, Liu Biao and others all know about this person, but they can't recruit him, could it be that the lord doesn't know about it? ”
Cao ** really doesn't know this person, his hometown is Peiguo County, but Xu Chu is a county of Peiguo, which is not a place at all. After thinking about it, he said: "When Lu Bu is defeated, I will personally visit this Xu Zhuangshi, Yuan Shao, Tao Qian and others are all mediocre!" If I go and solicit it myself, it will be done! ”
The corners of Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and the others twitched for a while, and their hearts said that you Cao ** is too arrogant! Why can't people solicit you, you are so sure?
Looking at the front of the two armies, Lu Bu and the four of them joined forces for more than 50 battles, and as their physical strength declined, they gradually fell into disadvantage, after all, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan, Gao Lan, and Li Dian were not cabbages.
Hao Meng, Song Xian and Sun Guansan in the rear saw that Lu Bu had fallen into the disadvantage, and after a little discussion, they rushed up, Song Xian shouted: "To bully more and less, Tian is shameless, don't worry, don't worry, I'll come to help fight!" After that, they went straight to Xiahoudun with Hao Meng to kill, but the two of them hated Xiahoudun for killing their good friend Hou Cheng. Sun Guan caught up with the weakest Li Dian, and Lu Bu fought alone against Xiahou Yuan and Gao Ran, and immediately gained the upper hand.
In such a four-on-four battle, the situation was immediately reversed, Song Xian and Hao Meng may not be Xiahou Dun's opponents alone, but they can have a slight upper hand when they join forces. Although Sun Guan fell into a disadvantage, it was not easy for Li Dian to take Sun Guan as soon as possible. Only Lu Bu had the upper hand, and Gao Ran and Xiahou Yuan were already in danger and precarious.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Cao ** suddenly shouted: "Beat the drums, the whole army will assault!" Capture Lu Bu alive! ”
"No!" Under the leadership of the two brothers, Cao Hong and Cao Chun, an army of 30,000 immediately launched a charge. Lu Bu's side did not show weakness, although the number of people was nearly half, but these were Lu Bu's elite troops, and besides, they fought according to the city, and they could retreat to Dongping City at any time.
The two armies fought in one place, and they all fought hard, and blood flowed on the spot, and stumps and broken arms were everywhere. In the midst of the chaos, Lu Bu rushed left and right, as if entering a no-man's land, swept away Xiahou Yuan and Gao Lan, rushed out of the battle group single-handedly, and went straight to Cao **, who was watching the battle.
Xiahou Yuan and Gao Ran were shocked, and they hurriedly patted their horses and tried their best to catch up, but how could their war horses compare with the Red Rabbit Horse? Seeing Lu Bu approaching, Cao ** hurriedly commanded his own soldiers to meet him and tried to block Lu Bu. But if Lu Bu was to be blocked so easily, then he wouldn't be Lu Bu either, swinging away Fang Tian's halberd and rushing to kill, his speed didn't decrease much, and he came to a place fifty steps in front of Cao ** in a few breaths.
Cao ** was shocked, Xiahou Dian, Cao Hong, Gao Ran and others were also shocked, if Cao ** was destroyed by Lu Bu, they would still be a fart! At the moment, he didn't care about fighting, so he turned his horse and killed Lu Bu.
As soon as Cao Jun saw the generals retreating, their morale plummeted, and although they had an absolute advantage in numbers, they were defeated and retreated by Song Xian, Hao Meng, and Sun Guan, and there was a great momentum of rout.
But he said that Cao ** saw that Lu Bu was unstoppable, and he couldn't care about Cheng Yu and Xun You and others, so he yelled: "Stop Lu Bu for me, and reward Lu Bu's head with a thousand gold!" "Then he turned his horse and left.
Lu Bu looked excited, and while wielding Fang Tian's painting halberd to slash and slash, he shouted: "Cao thief is leaving, I will capture you today!" The red rabbit horse galloped, like a red lightning, and soon broke out of the encirclement and went straight to the Cao thief to kill. Cao ** panicked, trembling, he knew Lu Bu's bravery, but he didn't expect it to be so brave, and now he can only try to escape, if it falls into the hands of Lu Bu, it will be a situation where life is worse than death. Fortunately, Lu Bu has a BMW, and he is not bad, and he sits on a horse named Claw Huang Feidian.
Claw Huang Feidian whole body**, four yellow hooves, noble and extraordinary, arrogant. Just listening to the name of Claw Huang Feidian looks majestic and different. This horse was given by the Li family of Yanzhou, and Li Qian's father and son helped Cao ** with their family money, and offered countless money and food, including this BMW claw Huang Feidian. Cao ** saw that this horse was born majestic and extraordinary, and he loved it, and he had to ride it every time he went out, and it finally came in handy at this moment.
Claw Huang Feidian is not weaker than the red rabbit horse this run, chasing and escaping, and soon ran out of more than ten miles, the two have always maintained a distance of about 100 steps, followed by Cao Hong, Cao Chun, Xiahou Yuan and other generals, their war horses are too different, ten miles were thrown out of two miles away, this is the role of BMW.
Seeing that it was difficult to capture Cao **, Lu Bu immediately hung up Fang Tian's halberd, took out the dragon tongue bow, bent the bow and set up arrows, and immediately came with a three-arrow row. The three feather arrows shot at Cao **'s heart and the war horse respectively, and their strength was extraordinary.
Cao ** looked back at this time, and when he saw Lu Bu take out the dragon tongue bow, he was so frightened that his soul flew away. Finally, he reacted very quickly, and hurriedly leaned over and hugged the horse's neck, and with a stirrup on both feet, the claws and yellow lightning were like psychic, and he jumped seven or eight feet high. This leap suddenly dodged the fatal place, two arrows flew under the horse's hooves, and the other was in the left crotch of Cao**.
Cao ** screamed, blood burst out, and he whipped the war horse, as long as he escaped seven or eight miles and entered the barracks, Lu Bu would not be able to enter the camp even if he had great ability. After this incident, the war horse was frightened, and its speed suddenly increased by a large amount, as if it was crazy. At the same time, the full pet stationed in the camp also led the troops to greet him.
Lu Bu didn't dare to go deep alone, once he was surrounded by people and shot with random arrows, it was not easy to get out. Then he returned to his horse and returned to his main formation, just in time to meet the six people who came to savior Cao Hong, Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Gao Lan, Li Dian, and Cao Chun. Behind is the Cao army like a tide, after Lu Bu stirred it up, the Cao army, which was expected to win, was defeated by others with fewer victories.
After several battles, Lu Bu's strength was also greatly damaged, and it was difficult to defeat six enemies, so he retreated after only fighting less than ten times, relying on the advantage of horse speed, and soon rushed past the defeated team of Cao's army and returned to his own position.
The six generals were worried about Cao **'s surname, and had no intention of fighting, so they gathered the rout at the moment, resisted while retreating, and the two armies killed until dusk before they each quit.
Cao ** led an army of 40,000 to come, in addition to the auxiliary soldiers and thousands of soldiers and horses stationed in the camp, a total of 30,000 Qingzhou troops went to war, this defeat, it was inevitable that morale plummeted, and more than 30,000 people who fought were killed and wounded nearly 8,000. You must know that Lu Bu only fought 10,000 horses, and only lost less than 2,000 people, and the casualty ratio reached 4:1.
After Lu Bu returned home, he held a celebration banquet, but he folded Hou Cheng, and the generals were inevitably sad. Hou Cheng's martial arts are average, but his winemaking skills are absolutely first-class, and all the generals are good friends with him. Lu Bu is also a lover of wine, and immediately ordered someone to bury Hou Chenghou without mentioning it.
But it was said that Cao ** was hit by an arrow in the left crotch, the injury was really not light, Lu Bu's dragon tongue bow was surprisingly powerful, and there was no strong armor to protect the crotch, this arrow was four inches deep into the flesh, if it was not blocked by bones, it was possible to shoot through.
Lying on the couch of the barracks, Cao ** hated in his heart, and this time he was full of confidence, but he thought that he would lose the battle as soon as he clashed, and he was almost killed by an arrow, which was a great shame.
Xun Yu and Cheng Yu also fled in the chaos, and this time they saw that Cao ** was seriously injured, and they were all sad in their hearts. Xun Yu hesitated for a long time, frowned, and said: "Lu Bu is brave and invincible, and he is assisted by Guo Jia and Chen Gong, I am afraid that I will be tricked this time." ”
Cao ** also thought of this, with Lu Bu's style, it is impossible to only bring 10,000 soldiers and horses to fight, if the two sides are equal in strength today, how can the loss on his side be more than 8,000 people? It is possible that the whole army will be wiped out. With a nervous mood, Cao ** said: "Wen Ruo tried to say it? ”
Xun Yu said: "If what I expected is correct, the purpose of Lu Bu's coming to Dongping is to lure the enemy, and to lure the lord to divide his troops into two ways and then break them one by one." Cao Ren and Yu Ban's troops may have been ambushed."
Cao ** was about to sit up when he heard this, he was emotional, and said with hatred: "Lu Bu Xiao'er, how can you have such a ability to use soldiers?" Isn't it heaven that wants to kill me Cao Mengde? ”
Xun Yu said: "It's not that Lu Bu knows how to use soldiers, but the lord underestimates Lu Bu too much, Lu Bu himself is ten thousand enemies, and there are Bingzhou Army, White Wave Thieves, Hun Cavalry and a small number of Xiliang Army under his command, all of whom are elite soldiers who have been on the battlefield for a long time, on the other hand, most of our army is adapted from the Yellow Turban Thieves, and there is more than enough to rob the people, and the battlefield is greatly insufficient."
