Chapter 81: There is no way to avoid it
Yang'an was really as Lu Bu said, calm and calm, and did not receive any attack, which made Wei Yan, Zhou Cang and others admire Lu Bu a little more.
After repairing Yang'an City overnight, early the next morning, Lu Bu led the crowd on the road, but along the way, he was not attacked again, as if those enemies who were hiding in the shadows had given up, and everyone's mentality gradually relaxed.
Although you will pass by a lot of cottages along the way, the momentum of more than 800 people in Lu Bu's line is enough to bluff people, and those bandits are not stupid, no one wants to hit them, even if there are occasionally one or two stupid thieves, without Lu Bu's action, Wei Yan, Zhou Cang, and Hao Zhao are enough to clean up these stupid thieves who are not long-eyed.
"Lord, there is Daze Township in front, and after this Daze Township is the boundary of Xuzhou, right?" Wei Yan rode his horse to Lu Bu's side and looked ahead, unable to hide the excited look on his face.
"Hmm." Lu Bu nodded silently, but his mood was not as optimistic as Wei Yan.
He knew that there was something waiting for him in front of him, Guo Jia and Liu Bei had joined forces, and Liu Bei had divided five thousand men and horses, and under the leadership of Guan Yu and Liu Bi, he was intercepting him in front.
It's not that I didn't want to avoid it, but although Guo Jia didn't have the ghost guard around Lu Bu, he had a team of people who were good at exploring, Lu Bu's whereabouts along the way were in the other party's sight, Lu Bu changed direction, and the other party would also change direction, this time, the other party was not prepared to engage in any ambush at all, but was ready to fight Lu Bu hard.
Although it is a rabble, five thousand against eight hundred, plus Guan Yu, Li Jin and other fierce generals who are enough to fight with Lu Bu, this is the stupidest way, but because of this, it makes Lu Bu's ghost guard useless.
The most important thing is that Guo Jia obviously sensed something, and if he wanted to use the ghost guard in the future, he was afraid that it would be difficult to win as he did in the previous battle with Cao Cao.
"Detour!" Lu Bu sighed, restrained the war horse, and said to everyone.
Since the first battle is unavoidable, the battlefield naturally cannot be left to the other party's choice, the number of people is already at a disadvantage, the terrain of Daze Township is not suitable for cavalry combat, Lu Bu is surrounded by cavalry, except for the more than two hundred bandits brought by Zhou Cang and Wei Yan's Yiyang soldiers, they are all cavalry, and the terrain of Daze Township is naturally not easy to perform.
Wei Yan and Hao Zhao couldn't help but be slightly stunned when they heard this, but they didn't say much, along the way, Lu Bu had suddenly changed lanes for the seventh time, although they didn't know why, but as generals, they didn't want to ask too much, just carry out the order.
To the south of Daze Township is Guyang, and the terrain is a flat river, which is suitable for cavalry galloping.
……
Daze Township, barracks.
Shi A quickly came to the tent and saluted Guo Jia: "Sir, Lu Bu changed his way and walked in the direction of Guyang." ”
"As expected." Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at Guo Jiadao: "What should happen next?" ”
"Revisit." Guo Jia stood up and said, "I don't think Lu Bu will leave again, and then, it's up to the two generals to see their methods." ”
When Guan Yu heard this, he snorted, didn't say much, and went straight out of the camp, went to lead the horse and the army, and prepared to rush to Guyang.
"Strategist, the last general will retire." Li Jin bowed to Guo Jia and said.
"There's General Lau Lee." Guo Jia nodded.
Li Jin didn't say much, and went out of the camp to meet Guan Yu, his task was to cooperate with Guan Yu, entangle Lu Bu, and give Guo Jia the opportunity to send someone to rescue the Son of Heaven, but Liu Bei obviously also had the intention of snatching the Son of Heaven, so if he could defeat Lu Bu, he would have to guard against Guan Yu.
Guo Jia was under the protection of Shi A and the secret guards, hanging behind the army and slowly followed, he and Liu Bei had a word first, Liu Bei's soldiers and horses he could not command, commanded by Guan Yu and Gong Du, Li Jin was incorporated into the army, and Guan Yu dealt with Lu Bu together.
As for going first, Guo Jia didn't think about it, he didn't want to give Lu Bu a head like Chen Deng and Sun Ce.
The army set off from Daze Township and did not march in a hurry, and two hours later, Shi A Pegasus arrived: "Military division, that Lu Bu is outside Guyang, it seems that he is waiting for our army!" ”
"Inform General Yun Chang and let them be careful, Lu Bu is very good at cavalry warfare, although I am outnumbered, but don't take it lightly." Guo Jia got up and said.
He has seen Lu Bu's cavalry more than once, sometimes it really doesn't work if there are many people, he tried his best to unite with Liu Bei to force Lu Bu to fight a decisive battle, he didn't even expect these people to win, he just wanted Guan Yu to contain Lu Bu, he took the opportunity to order the secret guards to rob the Son of Heaven, and ran away if he robbed it, as for Guan Yu's life or death, it didn't matter to him.
……
On the other side, Gu Yang, when he saw the dense army appear at the end of his sight, Lu Bu beckoned and beckoned the red rabbit horse to his side.
"Lord, this is ......" Wei Yan looked at Lu Bu and wondered.
"Can't avoid it, prepare for battle!" Lu Bu turned over and sat on the back of the red rabbit horse, took off Fang Tian's painting halberd from the back of the war horse, turned his head to look at Zhou Cang and said, "Zhou Cang." ”
"The last general!" Zhou Cang took a step forward and said loudly.
"The people with you, as well as Wei Yan's Yiyang soldiers, will protect the Son of Heaven before I break the enemy!" Lu Bu looked at Zhou Cangdao.
"Whoa!" Zhou Cang hugged his fists.
"Let's go!" Six hundred cavalry, with Lu Bu's order, changed into war horses one after another, and began to move forward with Lu Bu.
The cavalry never fought a defensive battle, and the six hundred cavalry quickly gathered behind Lu Bu and slowly spread out to the two wings, forming an irregular fan.
Guan Yu looked at the cavalry who gradually became clear at the end of his sight, the hand holding the sword shaft clenched unconsciously, Zhang Fei's death kept coming to mind since Xuzhou, Zhang Fei's death was like a thorn in his heart, and every time he thought about it, it made him extremely painful.
Avenge!
This is countless midnight dreams, Guan Yu said the most words when he woke up from his dream, today, after more than a year, he finally confronted Lu Bu again, he today, even if he died, he would definitely cut off Lu Bu's head and avenge Zhang Fei.
The Qinglong Glaive in his hand was raised high, Guan Yu's Danfeng eyes gradually widened, and a cold killing intent was brewing in his eyes.
"Archer prepare!" Seeing this, Gong Du let out a loud shout, and the few archers quickly assembled in the front row, stretched their bows and arrows, and under Gong Du's command, slowly pointed the arrow clusters obliquely at the sky, and the cold arrow clusters refracted a cold luster in the sun.
There was no fighter, Lu Bu's cavalry rushed at an oblique angle on the battlefield, and the soldiers on both sides released their bowstrings at the same time, and the dense clusters of arrows briefly met and collided in the air, and then quickly fell towards the two camps.
The cavalry quickly crossed the opponent's formation, only a few knights were accidentally shot by stray arrows, and fell to the ground, behind Guan Yu, but at this moment fell a piece, Liu Bei became an army for less than a year, there was a serious shortage of ordnance, and a few shields could not defend too much of the range, but unfortunately, among the six hundred knights under Lu Bu, less than half of the people who knew how to ride and shoot were now, otherwise the results would be greater this time.
And Lu Bu didn't expect to be able to injure the enemy with mounted archery and slightly confuse the opponent's formation...... That's enough!
After avoiding the archers, the cavalry spared a large circle in the clearing, turned their horses' heads again, and finally opened their fangs at the panicked soldiers......
