Chapter 468: The Biography of Lu Bu (2)
—176 A.D.——
Although Lu Bu produced a large-scale deterrent attack when he "opened the Peerless", the scout strikers of the thousand people did not panic or flee because of this, the reason is basically as the captain who had secretly retreated to the back of the team said, the bottom line of a "Peerless Warrior" is to defeat 200 people alone, and the upper limit is between 300 and 400 people, so a team of 1,000 people is enough to surround and kill any "Peerless Warrior".
Moreover, because the Hu people, whether they were the Wuhuan, the Xiongnu, the Xianbei and Qiang, or the Southern Xiongnu who had surrendered to the Han Dynasty, they had no way to comprehend the inexplicable "Wushuang", so they had to come up with various ways to deal with this kind of people with strong force.
So, the Hu people who were too sudden and fell unconscious and were thrown off their mounts grabbed their shields and scimitars, stabilized their lower plates, and slowly approached Lu Bu, who was flashing with black and red lightning all over his body, while the other lucky scouts who were one step slower turned to pick up their hunting bows and circled around this group of "big Han squads" from a distance, and as long as they saw an opportunity, they shot an arrow.
"Fuck off! Trash fish! Lu Bu rushed forward with the halberd upside down, and then smashed it to the ground, and the black and red lightning that was originally wrapped around the halberd suddenly burst out and scattered, directly blasting a large piece of sword and shield soldiers closer into charcoal.
The unaffected sword and shield soldiers wanted to take the opportunity to give Lu Bu or the red horse a blow, but unexpectedly, Lu Tou picked up the halberd again without looking back, and slashed it twice on the top of his head, and a new thunderbolt scattered again, and the surrounding objects, whether they were people or horses, were blown away like fallen leaves in the wind.
"Hey! Wenyou, you guard your father-in-law! I'll go and kill the enemy general and come back! Lu Bu shouted to Li Ru from afar, and the horse halberd shouted to the Hu scout captain who was full of confidence before, but now he was fleeing backwards with his life.
"Don't look at it! Maintain the Circle! Li Ru shouted to the nearly 100 rangers who were at a loss: "Why do you think I chose you to go with Lord Dong? Not because you can play, but because your combination is a good match! ”
Although these words are suspected of belittling them, but at the same time, it also shows that this situation of being surrounded by a large army was expected by the commander, and after a short period of confusion, a group of rangers quickly formed a circle formation around Dong Zhuo, with sword and shield hands outside, followed by long weapons, and in the middle was another group of shield bearers and crossbowmen, who shot a few rounds against the Hu scouts who were circling outside, causing a lot of casualties on the other side, but they were unscathed, so their morale was even stronger.
"Father-in-law, he is the ...... first" Li Ru arranged the defense, and then looked at Dong Zhuo with some embarrassment, he boasted before that he wanted Lu Bu to ride a thousand, but he didn't ask Dong Zhuo's plans, compared to the simple-minded Lu Bu, who had already learned from Jia Xu's letter how Dong Zhuo made his fortune, Li Ru could not guarantee that this person would care about the relationship between Weng and his son-in-law after he made a mistake.
"There is nothing wrong with Feng Xian's idea, killing the leader is indeed the fastest way to defeat a thousand-man team," Dong Zhuo didn't seem to mind: "If you want to gradually shape his image as a thousand enemies or ten thousand enemies, don't beat around the bush, just tell him, 'I hope you can kill a thousand enemies with your own hands'." ”
"The son-in-law is taught." Julius saluted, turned his head and continued to command the defensive array formed by the rangers to resist the siege of the 400 or so "fish that slipped through the net" - although the hole in the "net" was really a bit big.
"Hahaha! Run! Trash fish! Because Lu Bu yelled "to kill the enemy general", when he rushed towards the captain of the Nahu scout, many "smart people" intentionally or unintentionally stayed away from the captain of the thousand-man team, and as long as they found an opportunity, they avoided his escape and Lu Bu's pursuit route.
For this group of people, Lu Bu just casually threw a red and black thunderbolt over him, and if he was hit, he would die, and if he didn't hit, he would ignore it, and just chased after the captain of the Hu people.
"But, damn it! He's already won, so why is he chasing after him? Is there any way to stop him? Captain Hu Ren had less than fifty people left with him at this time, not because they were loyal, but because they had too close a relationship with the captain—the kind of "closeness" that if the captain died, they would also be executed if they returned.
"The Han people have a saying that 'capture the thief first captures the king'......" The staff member was not very good at riding horses, and said breathlessly.
"I'm just complaining! You don't need to explain! The captain was furious.
"Say, it's wrong, I mean, we want to 'shoot people before they shoot horses.'" The staff pointed back to the jujube red Dawan horse that Lu Bu was riding, "Then, although that horse looks very strong, it is obviously old, as long as we find a way to hurt it, that terrible person will definitely stop." ”
"So what are you waiting for! You guys, whatever you can throw and throw, go and hail the guy behind you—the horse! The captain shouted, and threw the saber he was carrying at his waist first, speeding up his mount a little.
At this time, no matter whether those guards were following orders or planning to lighten their loads, they were all throwing things at Lu Bu, who was chasing behind, and even showed a state of rain of weapons for a while.
If the object is accurate, it will be bounced away by lightning before the object hits Lu Bu, and the unqualified will be directly ignored, so he chased for a distance, and when he saw that the other party was about to have nothing to throw, a short sword that emitted a dim light swept by, only to be slightly deflected by the black and red thunderbolt, and then cut a bloody hole on the leg of the jujube red horse.
The jujube red horse neighed and fell, and Lu Bu landed smoothly with a somersault, but it was impossible to chase the captain again.
“…… Damn it! Lu Bu checked the red horse that he had grown up with, and although it was not seriously injured, it still could not be ridden for a few months.
The black-red lightning that still filled his body made Lu Bu's expression look quite hideous, and he looked at the remnants of the scout who were almost disappearing from view from a distance, and suddenly kicked a stone at his feet, and then slammed his halberd on the side of the stone, causing it to shoot towards the team like a sharp sword with a red and black current.
The scout captain happened to turn sideways to confirm the victory, avoiding a blow in the middle of the heart, but his arm was broken, and the whole person directly planted his horse, and the surrounding guards hurriedly supported him, and did not dare to turn back and flee far away.
"Hmph." Lu Bu checked the jujube red horse again, and determined that it could only walk slowly at most, not to mention galloping, so he exerted his arms and directly lifted it up, and rushed back on foot.
————
Lu Bu went back relatively slowly, of course, not because he didn't have a horse.
For Lu Bu, who can hold a sheep in his hand at the age of ten, it is not difficult to hold a horse and walk with a meteor in stride, not to mention that since it has grown up with itself since childhood, it can roughly guess what the current situation is, so it will not move at all.
But the problem now is that the boast he bragged about before he left was broken, and what "kill the enemy general, go and go back" obviously just drove people away, and the Hu people who really died in his hands were only 300 at most.
Li Ru hoped that he could refresh the record of the "Peerless Warrior" fighting alone, but he was messed up by himself, well, if there were still three or four hundred enemies anywhere......
"Keep it all up! They can't hold out for long! A voice came from afar: "That most powerful Lu Bu has gone to chase the captain, so as long as we take the opportunity to take down this group of people, not only will there be no fault, but it will be meritorious!" ”
"......" After Lu Bu heard this, he was slightly stunned and showed a bloodthirsty smile.
Li Ru belongs to the kind of "strategist" who can't fight, but has all kinds of wonderful strategies, and the "unequaled" of this kind of person generally does not strengthen the force of each person, and most of them are reflected in various general trends such as strengthening soldiers, arranging traps, and commanding battles from a distance.
Therefore, if he is at a disadvantage when he takes the initiative to do something, Lu Bu is the first to disbelieve it, then the conclusion is obvious, he is keeping this group of people to himself, knowing this is enough, whether he deliberately keeps the army to have a good relationship with himself or something else...... "This favor, I Lu Feng first wrote it down!" ”
Lu Bu put down the jujube red horse, followed the sound and found the Hu Ren commander who besieged the team of Zhangren and Lian Lian, he was about the deputy of the previous captain, and he temporarily stood up to take over the command at this moment, I have to say, he did not do a good job, and when Li Ru deliberately kept his hand, he successfully played an advantage - at least it seemed like this on the scene.
"We just need to work a little harder—ah!!"
Squeak - boom!
Many of the Hu cavalry who were trying to open Dong Zhuo's defensive formation looked back in amazement, just in time to see Lu Bu with red and black lightning falling from the sky like a meteor, and a halberd slashed at the temporary commander...... On the ground beside him.
Many black and red thunderbolts rolled on the ground, and then suddenly burst into a sky-high thunderstorm, knocking down the temporary commander and the guards around him, as for whether they were killed, it was not clear for the time being.
"You miscellaneous fish, you should lie on the ground like dogs and look up at me! So, I'll say this sentence only once - surrender! Or die! "The black-armored and red-robed peerless general, surrounded by thunder and lightning, was standing on the high ground where the commander was, his whole body was covered in blood, and the thunder and lightning flashed, like a god and demon, and he was holding a halberd and shouting at them.
Bang, click...... Many Hu soldiers dropped their weapons one after another, but the Hu soldiers, who were originally far away, turned their horses, as if they were planning to take advantage of the opportunity to escape.
"Cavalry strike! Stop them! Li Ru in the defensive array ordered loudly.
Many of the rangers who were originally arranged in a circular defensive formation turned the formation into sharp arrows in an instant, and many knights who were originally protected in the middle instantly pushed to the tip of the arrow, leading the rangers to chisel through the "formation" of the fleeing Hu people without hindrance, and then dispersed to both sides, completely surrounding them again, this time they did not spare their hands at all, wielding sabers or riding spears, and directly slaughtered those who escaped.
"Father-in-law...... I ...... "Feng Xian killed 300 people, captured 200 people, and defeated 500 people with the strength of one person, which can be called 'unparalleled in the world'!" After Lu Bu walked back into the formation, he was about to report to Dong Zhuo, but was interrupted by Li Ru's praise.
The number seems to be correct, Lu Bu thought about it for a while, and then nodded in approval, as for "unparalleled in the world", isn't that a matter of course?
