Chapter 63: Lu Bu is fleeing

Anding the city, the head of the city.

Lu Lingqi lives high in the city, with the battle between Lu Bu's army and Ma Chao's army in the north, and the camp of Xu Huang's army in the south. The two teams were at a clamour with the city, giving the city of Anding, which had just been devastated in the Great War, a respite. The people are also urgently repairing the city, in case Wu Zhao's army breaks through Xu Huang's interception and easily breaks through the fragile city walls.

Ma Chaojun, who fought back frantically, was already in danger of morale under the strong counterattack of Lu Bu's father and daughter. Ma Xiu was killed by Lu Bu in the battle, and Ma Tie was also shot and wounded by Lu Bu in the fierce battle. But when he heard that Wu Zhao led the army to arrive, Ma Chao relied on his prestige as a general of Shenwei Tian to support the situation again. Originally, it would only take about ten days at most, and Ma Chao could be completely defeated, and then enter Xiliang. But now that the two-front battle, even the elite of Lu Bu's army is really a little untenable.

Standing next to Lu Lingqi was a tall and thin mustache with a wine-colored face, who was Lu Bu's brother-in-law Wei Xu. He saw from a distance that the army with a high banner rushed into the camp of the Wuzhao army, and retreated in a dashing manner before the Wuzhao army organized an effective counterattack, and was overjoyed: "It should be General Gao Shun who defeated the Yizhou army outside Chang'an City and led the army to the rescue." Lingqi, you guard the city, I'll report to my brother-in-law! ”

Wei Xu has always been at odds with Gao Shun, who likes to advise, but at this time of life and death, he regards Gao Shun as a savior. Lu Lingqi was a little sober, and when she heard that he was going to go down to the city, she hurriedly stopped: "General Wei Xu, how can General Gao Shun have such an ability to defeat the Yizhou army outside Chang'an City alone?" Beware of deception! ”

Wei Xu showed an eager expression and said hurriedly: "Oh, niece, don't be suspicious at this time!" Although Gao Shun has a bad mouth and a hard temper, everyone knows that he is the number one general in our army, why can't he break the enemy alone? Besides, Chang'an is the main city of our army, and my brother-in-law has left tens of thousands of troops behind, although Luoyang has been burned by fire, it has been repaired in recent years, will there be no soldiers, or another general? Wu Zhao hurriedly led the troops to settle down, Gao Shun is so good at fighting, as long as he grasps the fighter, he is fully capable of breaking the troops left by Wu Zhao! That's it, look at the city, I'll pick up my brother-in-law back! ”

Wei Xu pressed each other as an uncle, and Lu Lingqi couldn't stop him anymore. Seeing this, Wei Xu strengthened his judgment, went straight to the city tower, carried his big sword, and galloped away with hundreds of personal soldiers.

At this time, the Lu army had already occupied an absolute advantage, and Ma Chao's army was demoralized and was abandoning the camp every day. But Ma Chao is concerned about the revenge of killing his father and brother, and after being defeated, he will definitely make a comeback the next day and will not retreat. Lu Bu relied on Ma Kuai to chase several times, but he was always resisted by Ma Chao and Pang De together, and he couldn't help Ma Chao alone. Although Lu Bu's archery skills are powerful, Ma Chao and Pang De are on guard, and several cold arrows have been knocked down by the two of them with flying hammers, or blocked by loyal guards with their bodies, and they have repeatedly failed to perform, making Lu Bu irritable and depressed every day.

Originally, if Wu Zhao's army did not come, Lu Bu led the army to attack and kill, and he could completely defeat Ma Chao and chase him all the way to Wuwei City. And Tianshui originally had not many garrisons, and was brought out by Ma Xiu to support Ma Chao, and it had already been lost after several tough battles. Now the defenders of the city will be less than 2,000, and they can be taken by sending a partial division. But when Wu Zhao's army arrived, the situation was completely different. In case Lu Bu's army leaves the city, Wu Zhao will attack with all his strength and stabilize the city, and the foundation of Lu Bu's army will be taken away, and the military spirit will fall to the bottom like Ma Chao's army.

Therefore, Lu Bujun is now halfway into the quagmire, saying that he can't sink down, but he can't get up when he talks about it. The camp captured yesterday was captured by Ma Chaojun at night, and Lu Bu was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas were nirvana, and he waved his army to continue the onslaught. When the battle was in full swing, Wei Xu arrived quickly: "Brother-in-law, the fighter plane has appeared!" Gao Shun led the army to help, let's break through! ”

Lu Bu shot down a Ma Chaojun archer on the camp gate with an arrow, turned around and asked, "Wei Xu, how do you know that Gao Shun led the army to help?" Wu Zhaoqin led a large army to force Chang'an, even if he divided his troops to come, presumably a team would be left outside Chang'an to contain Gao Shun, where could Gao Shun come? We still follow Mr. Jia Xu's plan, defeat Ma Chao first, and then set Xiliang! ”

Wei Xu hurriedly said: "Brother-in-law! When Mr. Jia Xu made a plan, Wu Zhao had not yet divided his troops to come, how could he be stubborn, or stick to Mr. Jia Xu's strategy? Now the situation is very different, the morale of Ma Chao's army has risen, and our army has soldiers fleeing every day! Although General Xu Huang won twice, they were both small victories. The current situation in our army is already dangerous! ”

Lu Bu's arrows were not missed, and he shot several Ma Chaojun soldiers in a row, and replied: "Then in your opinion, you should take the opportunity of Gao Shun's reinforcement to break through?" ”

Wei Xu nodded in a panic and said, "Yes." Brother-in-law, our army fought against Wu Zhao and Ma Chao alone, and it did not have an advantage, but now it is alone outside, and it is even more dangerous. It's better to go back to Chang'an first, he will make a comeback one day! Back in Chang'an, our army can form an alliance with Cao Cao and use Cao Cao's power to fight against Wu Zhao. ”

Lu Bu snorted coldly in his nose: "Hmph! Cao Cao was treacherous and insidious, allied with Cao Cao, and he didn't know how he died later! Haven't you heard that Yuan Shao's alliance with Cao Cao has been plotted by Cao Cao, and all the forces have fallen into Cao Cao's hands! ”

Wei Xu smiled: "Although Cao Cao is insidious, he dares to assassinate others, does he dare to assassinate the world-famous Tiger Prison Guan ghosts?" Our army is not particularly weak with one enemy and two enemies, as long as Cao Cao helps a little, he can resist Wu Zhao. Wait until Wu Zhao Ma Chao is killed, and then clean up Cao Cao! Brother-in-law, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, so let's save my strength now! ”

Lu Bu frowned and didn't speak, and the Hui army attacked sharply, and finally broke through the camp. When he entered the village, he saw that it was empty, and Ma Chaojun had already taken advantage of the fact that Lu Jun had broken the door and retreated on horseback.

Lu Bu gritted his teeth: "These damn rats! Someone, set fire to it, and set this camp on fire for me!" ”

The fire soared into the sky, and the simple camp set up by Ma Chao's army in the firelight quickly turned to ashes. But the fire dissipated, and not too far ahead was another camp. Although Ma Chao's army is not as elite as Lu Bu's army, it is better because there are many people, and they have a deep foundation in Xiliang, I don't know how many camps they have set up on the main road from Anding to Wuwei. Although they are all simple wooden villages that can be broken at the first attack, it is these simple wooden villages that make Lu Bu dare not wave his army to attack directly, for fear of being delayed, resulting in the fall of Anding.

Seeing Lu Bu gritting his teeth and scolding angrily, Wei Xu took the opportunity to speak again: "Brother-in-law, the battle situation is unfavorable, it's better to return early!" The situation in our army has deteriorated to this point, and if it drags on any longer, Gao Shun will also be defeated. As soon as the fighter plane is lost, our army's retreat will be extinct! ”

Lu Bu looked at the front with hatred, and two words burst out from between his teeth: "Pass my order!" Return! ”

Back in the city, almost all of the opinions of the generals in the city were to break through and return to Chang'an. After several years of fierce battles with Ma Chaojun, these generals are tired. In addition, Jia Xu died, there was no mastermind in the army, and everyone had no bottom in their hearts. Although Lu Lingqi is a little more sober, she feels that things are not so simple with a woman's intuition, and there will be a higher risk of breaking through, but she is young after all, and she does not have much weight in front of these uncles and uncles.

Lu Bu sat high on the main seat, his face gloomy and uncertain. Suddenly, he asked, "Hou Cheng, has the murderer of Mr. Jia Xu been caught?" ”

Hou Cheng, one of the eight strong generals, was personally designated by Lu Bu to hunt down the murderer who assassinated Jia Xu, and when he heard this, he stood up and said very ashamedly: "Lord, that murderer is hiding in a theater troupe. I captured all the members of the troupe, but the troupe owner claimed that the assassin who assassinated Mr. Jia Xu was not a member of the troupe, but that he had knocked out the original actor, disguised himself as his character, and infiltrated and killed Mr. Jia Xu. The last general didn't know if the murderer was in the troupe, and he was still interrogating him for the past few days. ”

Lu Bu stood up: "No need to interrogate, let's cut them all!" If you don't do it well, you will be fined and confiscated all this year, and you will hit the 20 boards again, and you will be executed after the breakthrough is successful! ”

He took a deep breath, and there was a deep sense of exhaustion on his handsome face: "Everyone returns to the army to prepare their men and prepare to break through!" ”
