Chapter 18: Battle of Lu Bu
In March 188 AD, at the junction of Yangzhou, Xuzhou and Yuzhou, on the huge plain, 200,000 troops stretched for hundreds of miles to confront each other, with blue flags and blue sky, and the morale of both armies was high.
Because it was a rehearsal by Feng Shengming, the two sides can be said to be elite. The two armies gathered for ten miles, the smoke of the cooking was visible in the early morning, the drums were heard during the day, and the sound of drills during the day was endless.
The general He Jinfang came from the division, although the time of a month was in a hurry, but the troops were mainly cavalry, and the 100,000 army only refers to the number of people, if you count the horses of their cavalry, I am afraid it will be more than 300,000. Coming all the way to the march, the general relied on the strong supply capacity in Luoyang, and the troops were not tired at all.
Relatively speaking, the soldiers on the Yuecheng side were much easier, they only needed to set off from Wu County to this Yangzhou border land. The journey was not as hard as He Jin's side, and it could even be said that he was defending his home and fighting on the ground. The side of Mingyue City was led by Xu Yang himself, and the morale was unprecedentedly high, although the enemy had more cavalry, but there were also a lot on his side.
There is still one day before the official exercise between the two armies, but various tests have already begun between the troops. What scouts are constantly being sent, and both sides are injured. What the? You say drills shouldn't kill people? Brother, don't be funny, this is the era of cold weapons, Emperor Han Ling has to pull the troops out for training, and it is impossible to think of not dying. Do you think that Emperor Ling of Han has the conditions to fight empty bombs like modern warfare!
There is still one day before the official war begins, the general He Jin looked at the sand table, listening to the sentry cavalry that was lost today, and the mind of the champion Hou gradually changed!
Why? Although He Jin and Xu Yang had studied well before, when the two armies were on a pair, and both sides were damaged, then there was a real fire. are all generals with troops, who is not annoyed when they see the losses of their subordinates? In the friction that came and went, He Jin forgot a little about the things he had decided with Xu Yang. And there is a fundamental reason behind this, that is, the 30,000 Bingzhou iron cavalry that followed in He Jin's troops.
That's right, the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry is not his Luoyang's Xiyuan Army or Luoyang Forbidden Army. Those 30,000 iron cavalry are the elite of the authentic Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, and the leader is none other than Bingzhou Lu Bu! These soldiers were sent by Ding Yuan to assist He Jin after he reached a consensus with He Jin to eradicate the eunuch party. Ding Yuan is quite assured of the ability of his righteous son, Lu Bu has fought against the Hu people many times, not to mention his own bravery, he led the troops to rush and kill, even if it was 5,000 against 50,000, he was not afraid, and he could even kill the enemy to lose his armor.
Although He Jin didn't know how brave Lu Bu was, when he saw Lu Bu dancing the sword that day, He Jin also knew that this tiger general was the biggest support of Ding Yuan's subordinates. With such a good ally, He Jin felt that it was a matter of minutes to kill the Ten Standing Servants, as for the champion Hou? Hehe, it was originally Emperor Han Ling who used it to beat himself, if he let himself beat this time, then he must be very wonderful as his brother-in-law, and then he will destroy the ten permanent servants, and the court is still his own words.
Power drives ambition, strength drives ambition, and now both of these are unparalleled for He Jin. He has the right to be above 10,000 people under one person, and now he has the support of Ding Yuan, who in this world can compete with him.
"General!" Lu Bu, who was dressed in military uniform, looked heroic and extraordinary, and walked on the road with the posture of a god of war, and asked He Jin in a loud voice, "I don't know what the general will do in the future?" ”
His gaze fell from the sand table to Lu Bu's upper body, and He Jin was satisfied with this general. It's a pity that such a tiger general can't be owned for himself, but in the hands of his allies, it can be regarded as a good result! Lu Bu is Ding Yuan's righteous son, He Jin knows that it is not easy for him to dig this person, and now he can only use it to experience it.
"General Fengxian, tomorrow is the drill. In fact, this time His Majesty is nominally talking about drills, but there can be no too much hesitation on this battlefield, although this battle has been discussed with the champion Hou, but this general feels ......" He Jin said as he said, with a sinister smile on his face.
Lu Bu listened carefully to He Jin's words, and the corners of his mouth also showed a smug smile and said: "Don't worry, general, so the last general will go to the battle!" Before the war starts tomorrow, first weaken the morale of this Bright Moon City, and tomorrow as long as Bu leads the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry to charge in front, it will inevitably destroy the withering and decaying, and the general will then cover up and kill, and it will definitely be guaranteed to be broken with one blow! As for the battlefield that the general said, it was a battle of life and death, so how could there be a drill! If the champion Hou Ruo stood a little ahead, it was unknown that he would die under the iron hooves of the army! ”
He Jin listened to Lu Bu's words, and his heart was already happy. No matter what Lu Bu's strength is, just listening to this word makes people feel angry. What is the war fought? Isn't that a momentum, if you don't have the momentum of being indomitable and invincible, then it's still a yarn. The real elite can often win more with less, relying on that momentum, as long as this momentum is fought, the headwind will be smooth, and the rest will be handed over to the battlefield.
I saw Lu Bu lift Fang Tian's halberd, ride a fairly good yellow horse, and lead more than 1,000 horsemen from the headquarters to rush out of the camp, and went straight to the outside of the camp tent in Mingyue City.
Bending the bow and shooting arrows, Lu Bu's archery technique was originally the existence of the top few in the row among the Three Kingdoms, and an arrow shot directly through a banner in the camp of Mingyue City.
"Good! Good! ”
"The General ...... Mighty"
A group of soldiers couldn't stop cheering below, and Lu Bu also showed a smug look on his face. Although he usually prefers to use Fang Tian's halberd to rush to the battlefield to fight, it is still very rewarding to occasionally send a few arrows. After all, he can't boast about his skill in bowing everywhere, but it's still okay to really show it, looking at the expressions of more than a thousand elites behind him, Lu Bu was really cool and had nothing to say.
However, Lu Bu was just proud, and for a moment, he was distracted, and he only felt a black light passing by......
Bang Dang!
The flag on his side was also shot off at the waist, and the archer was riding a horse and standing under the camp of Mingyue City. Lu Bu looked at it angrily, this is really a narrow road, and it is actually the guy who has fought more than 300 moves with him in the General's Mansion.
"On the other side, it's General Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng?" Looking at the treasure carving bow in the other party's hand, Lu Bu really didn't expect that this person not only had the same martial arts as himself, but he was afraid that this bow skill was even higher than himself.
You must know that you have just shot the banner of Mingyue City, but there is an element of sneak attack, and the other party is indeed in trouble when he is out of his mind, Lu Bu, who is fast with a bow and arrow, has not reacted, and this speed alone is beyond Lu Bu's reach. Masters often pay attention to each other, and after the banquet in the general's mansion, Lu Bu knew that person was Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng, the first generals of Mingyue City.
"But it's a certain family!" Huang Zhong twisted his beard lightly and responded with a smile, "But I don't know how this General Lu didn't see him for a month, how did he do the sneak attack?" Could it be that General Lu felt uneasy in his heart and sought some solace in this way? ”
Huang Zhong is upright and in his prime, and he is addicted to martial arts on weekdays, but this does not mean that Huang Zhong will not be excited. To say that Huang Zhong's IQ can't crush the strategist, but he really has some advantages against Lu Buna.
Lu Bu listened to the ridicule in Huang Zhong's words, and he was a little speechless for a while. However, he immediately danced Fang Tian's halberd and said: "Well, General Huang Hansheng, our battle in the Great General's Mansion that day has not yet been decided. Why don't we compete before the two armies clash today? ”
Huang Zhong was just about to respond, but he saw a cyan fast horse next to him come out, and a red-faced man came to the center of the two armies with a cold saw, and a pair of Danfeng eyes stared at Lu Bu up and down and said: "Come and don't be rampant, if you want to fight against General Huang, let's pass my level first!" ”
It was none other than Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang who stepped forward to face him. To say that Guan Yu's popularity among players is high, but this time it is a drill organized by the imperial court, except for Xu Yang's side, some player forces are used to be responsible for logistics, and there are basically no players on the side of General He Jin.
Without the existence of players, how could Lu Bu, a person with eyes above the top, know Guan Yu, who is still not famous? Seeing that Guan Yu was dressed in silver armor and ordinary, the weapon in his hand should have some weight, I am afraid that he is a military general with some strength, and the mount under his crotch is not bad, which directly made Lu Bu interested: Killing this guy and robbing his mount is not in vain.
"You red-faced man, report your name! General Ben doesn't kill the nameless! Lu Bu Fang Tian raised his halberd high in front of him and said provocatively.
Guan Yu saw Lu Bu's outfit, and the weapon in his hand was one hundred and fifty pounds, so he didn't dare to underestimate the enemy. raised his voice and responded: "Guan Yu, the general of a certain Mingyue City expedition to the west, Guan Yu Guan Yunchang is also!" ”
Listen to the name of the family, Lu Bu is jealous in his heart! Mingyue City is the fief of the champion marquis, and within the fief, the champion marquis also has the right to open a mansion and set up accounts, and this person wants to canonize the officials, which are all authentic general titles. Think about yourself again, now you are also a merge state master, this is because you are Ding Yuan's righteous son, and she has made great achievements.
Looking at Guan Yu, who was red-faced and claimed to be the general of Zhengxi, this thing was a nobody, he actually dared to call himself a general in front of him, how not to make Lu Bu angry.
Fang Tian's halberd was suddenly raised, his legs lightly clamped the horse's belly, and the yellow horse directly slaughtered out of the formation.
"Remember, it was Bingzhou Lu Bu who defeated you today, Lu Fengxian!"
Fang Tian's halberd circled twice in the air, and before the two horses staggered, the halberd crescent slashed down with one move, and went straight to Guan Yumian's door!
Guan Yu, who also uses a long weapon, is cautious in dealing with it, and the other general's military general knows that it is extraordinary just by looking at his hands. There is a way for laymen to see the excitement, and insiders to look at the door, Guan Yu knows in his heart that there are not many people who use the weapon of Fang Tian's painting halberd, and the general level is not very good. Why? This weapon is not easy for him to practice, but once he has practiced it, it is an equal emphasis on skill and strength, so that you can't guard against it.
The halberd can be chopped or chopped, and can be thorned or picked...... The attack style is varied, and it can be used by those with great strength and by those with flexible skills. Of course, it is only those who combine strength and skill to completely control this complex weapon. And in front of him, Lu Bu rode a horse to attack, and he didn't seem to have any fancy moves, but the whole person's movements were smooth, and there was no superfluity, and a seemingly ordinary slash Guan Yu knew that this person's martial arts were definitely not under him.
Holding the cold saw with both hands, he raised the fire and burned the sky directly to the crescent halberd of Fang Tian's halberd!
Bang Dang!
One held a halberd and slashed with one hand, and the other held up a cold saw with both hands to launch an all-out defense. This weapon collided, Lu Bu looked at the red-faced man with a surprised face, he didn't expect that he would be taken by the other party so easily with his arm strength. Judging from this point of view alone, this person's strength is afraid that it is similar to that Huang Zhong, this Bright Moon City is actually so hidden in the dragon and crouching tiger?
On the other hand, Guan Yu's arms were shaken and numb, this is the first time he has met such an outstanding arm since his debut. If it weren't for the perennial training of himself and the cold saw in his hand, he was afraid that his weapon would have been knocked out of his hand by the blow just now.
However, the two horses are wrong, and after a blow, it is not the end for the two who are extremely powerful. The crescent halberd slammed on the handle of the Leng Yan saw, raised slightly, the small branch turned back, and the halberd turned around to cover the blade of the Leng Yan saw with a crescent ring.
Guan Yu held back the numbness in his hands, used his arms again, and shook his hands in front of his chest. One move turns from offense to defense, from raising fire to splitting Huashan! Although Guan Yu's speed had decreased under the first blow just now, Guan Yu used his huge force to directly and simply slash at Lu Bu, giving the other party a counterattack.
Ga!
On the crescent ring of the painting halberd, the blade of the Leng Yan saw big knife was successfully hung by Lu Bu. The knife momentum followed. Lu Bu seemed to have expected Guan Yu to attack, this time it can be said that he was both offensive and defensive, and he also controlled the initiative.
The crescent ring hung on the blade of the big knife, Guan Yu's huge force slashed and was invalidated, and the two began to wrestle. However, the two horses staggered quickly, the strength of the two did not see the superiority, the two horses had already staggered, and finally looked at each other cautiously with their weapons.
At this moment, Guan Yu finally understood why this person dared to call Huang Zhong into battle, if it weren't for the fact that the two sides were mostly tentative in the first round, Guan Yu felt that he was afraid that he would have been injured. You must know that he Guan Yu has never really admired a few people, but the person in front of him is definitely the strongest among the people he has seen just by looking at martial arts, and even General Huang Zhong is afraid that he is not as good as him.
"Drive!"
"Drive!"
The two adjusted their breathing, rode their horses and galloped, and it was another new round of confrontation. Fang Tian's painting halberd moves changed, and each attack was extremely tricky, Guan Yu relied on the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique to open and close the knife posture many times, but every blow failed to work, the other party seemed to see through his own attack every time, and the position of painting the halberd crescent hook and other positions was very skillful, and he could easily resolve the crisis every time.
The two of you go back and forth, and each attack is extremely dangerous, but they can be defused with subtle moves. After a while, the two fought for a hundred rounds, and Guan Yu also due to the huge physical exertion, from the beginning of the two sides to attack each other, it became mostly defensive, slightly less attacked, and the body was also sweating profusely, the intensity of the battle between the two can be seen.
Huang Zhong, who was under the camp of Mingyue City, watched the battle between the two, and the treasure carving bow in his hand never let go. This is nominally a drill between the two armies, but as a qualified general, you have to regard it as a war. Guan Yu and Lu Bu's strength Huang Zhong both knew something, and thought that the two would be evenly matched, but the older the two, the bigger Huang Zhong found that the bigger the problem.
That day, this Lu Bu in the General's Mansion used a long sword to fight with him for three hundred rounds, and now this Lu Bu, who had been replaced by Fang Tian's painting halberd, was simply like a different person, possessed by the God of War. This battle is terrifying, every blow can be just right, resolve all kinds of crises, and the prediction of the enemy's attack is even more accurate, in this case, Huang Zhong is always vigilant holding the treasure eagle bow, as long as Guan Yu is in danger, he will immediately launch the Jiuyang Shooting Sky to save Guan Yu.
As for the life and death of this Lu Bu? Huang Zhong felt that although his archery skills were superb, he was afraid that such a scene would not be enough to kill him. If in the melee of the army, it is still possible to sneak attack with exquisite bowing skills, and now that the other party is ready, and he is a master of bows and arrows, the probability of killing the other party is very low. Now it seems that if you want to win this exercise, the difficulty is not ordinary.
Just when Huang Zhong was staring at the battlefield and was still hesitating whether to interfere with this heads-up, Xu Yang appeared beside Huang Zhong at some point and asked, "Han Sheng, how many rounds do you think Yun Chang can hold on?" ”
Well, although these words are a bit ambitious, destroy their own prestige. But Xu Yang really doesn't have any pressure to say it as a player, and you don't look at who is on the other side, that is Lu Bu, the first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms! In the Tiger Prison Pass, Liu Guanzhang and the three of them besieged him and didn't take any of them, and it was very good that Guan Yu on his side could hold out for so long.
Huang Zhong saw that it was his own lord, so he replied: "Lord, Yun Chang still has a drag knife plan that is useless, I'm afraid it's hard to say the number of wins and losses, right?" ”
After listening to Huang Zhong's words, Xu Yang just smiled and didn't continue to say anything. Is Guan Yu's dragging knife trick powerful? That must be powerful, a fierce general like Hua Xiong has been dragged for seconds, and this power is naturally not to say. But you don't look at who is standing opposite, that is Lu Bu, the first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms, if the drag knife can solve him, then the number one position of the Three Kingdoms should really be replaced.
Sure enough, it was another twenty rounds, and Guan Yu finally used the drag-knife plan. was flexibly defended by Lu Bu with Fang Tian's halberd, and Lu Bu also seized the opportunity to carry out a wave of counterattacks, hanging a color on Guan Yu's arm.
Just when Guan Yu hung up the lottery and was unable to do it, Xu Yang turned around and showed a smug smile.
Behind him, a military general galloped quickly, holding a turquoise spear, and shouted loudly between the horses: "Bright Moon City Zhengdong General Gao Chong is here, Brother Yun don't panic!" ”
The silver armor junior is high, and Xu Yang deliberately left the back hand! Why not Huang Zhong? Huang Zhong's bow skills are excellent, he must stay to suppress the formation, or Huang Zhong will deter Lu Bu, Xu Yang is really afraid that he will not be able to overturn.
With the addition of Gao Chong, the situation has also been reversed. Guan Yu, who was pressed and beaten, once again played the Spring and Autumn Knife Technique, and the mixed yuan gun in Gao Chong's hand was completed in one go, both offensive and defensive. Lu Bu, who couldn't figure out the situation, was very depressed, how could there be so many masters in this Bright Moon City?
