Seeing that Lu Bu had finally made up his mind to break through, all the generals showed a relaxed look on their faces: they could finally go home. This Xiliang Jin Ma Chao is really difficult to fight, everyone has been injured for more than a year, and Cao Xing and Hou Cheng among the eight strong generals were even damaged in the hands of Ma Chao and Pang De. And the news that Wu Zhao captured Zhang Liao, the head of the Eight Warriors, and killed Song Xian and Cheng Lian also made these generals have a deep sense of awe for the young Yizhou Governor.

Ever since Wu Zhao led the army to besiege him, these people were a little afraid. Lu Bu ordered to break through the siege and abandon stability, not only did these people not lose the sadness of the city, but they couldn't wait to get up.

Lu Bu saw the unconcealable looks on everyone's faces, and sighed slightly. Jiuyuan Yuhu, who was once high-spirited, gradually became depressed after becoming the lord of a force. When the news of Jia Xu's stabbing death came, he felt even more powerless. Everyone dispersed, and Lu Bukuiwei's body fell heavily on the wide seat: Perhaps, he is not the material for the lord at all, right?

Lu Lingqi stayed and asked thoughtfully, "Father, but you're not feeling well?" ”

Lu Bu shook his head: "Lingqi, my father is fine." Go back and recuperate. After resting for a while, he had to send someone to inform Xu Huang of the breakthrough plan, and then send someone to contact Gao Shun. There's a lot going on! ”

Lu Lingqi sensibly took care of everything: "Father, you are tired from fighting, I will arrange these things." You rest early, and when the army breaks through, you will have to rely on your father's peerless martial arts! ”

Lu Bu smiled gently, but his heart was lamenting: "Lingqi, why are you a daughter? If you are a man, I will have someone to succeed Lu Bu, and I will help you in case of trouble. It's a pity that I have countless wives and concubines, but I only have one daughter under my knees, could it be that God punished me? Thinking of the past when he killed Ding Yuan, there was a sudden unexplained fear in his heart: "Could it be that God knows that I have been treacherous, so he punished me Lu Bu and wanted me to be the last resort?" ”

As soon as I thought of this, I couldn't stop being afraid. Cold sweat flowed out of his face: "This Wu Zhao has done a good thing to me several times, could it be that he is also a nemesis sent by God?" Can this breakthrough be successful? "My heart is so confused, I don't even know when Lu Lingqi left.

On the second day, Ma Chao was still camped a few miles away from Anding City, and seemed to have made up his mind to fight to the end. The troops under the banner of Gao Zi did not appear again, but Wu Zhaojun's team was sent out one by one, and it seemed that the team that pursued Gao Shun had gone.

Scouts searched everywhere like meteors, and Lü Bu's army was anxious in the city, and the soldiers packed their bags and prepared to retreat. Fortunately, the messenger sent by Lu Lingqi finally returned, bringing good news: that team was indeed a unit led by Gao Shun, and it was here to meet the breakthrough of Lu Bu's army. There were not many enemy troops under Chang'an City, only more than 10,000 people, all of whom were infantry. The commander is called Xue Xiantu, and he is a general with mediocre ability. As long as the iron cavalry of the state is attacked, it will definitely be able to break through the obstruction of more than 10,000 enemy troops and return to Chang'an City.

Lu Lingqi specially asked the messenger: "Is it really Gao Shun who said it himself?" Have you seen Gao Shun? ”

The messenger said, "I have not seen it." Na Wu Zhao kept sending troops to attack General Gao Shun's troops, and General Gao Shun had been wandering around, dealing with Wu Zhao's army. The villain is the information he learned from the mouth of a team of our army that was scattered by the Wu Zhao army. ”

Wei Xu smiled on the side: "Niece, you are too careful. Gao Shun led the army, presumably the number of people was not very large, how could he dare to set up camp and fight head-on with Wu Zhaojun? However, he caused Wu Zhao's army to disperse, which just created a good opportunity for us to break through. There are still nearly 30,000 cavalry, more than 50,000 infantry and archers in Anding City, and they can completely break through the obstruction of Wu Zhaojun in one fell swoop and return to Chang'an! ”

Lu Lingqi frowned: "However, I can't confirm that it is General Gao Shun's team, what if it is Fazheng's trick?" ”

Lu Bu said in a deep voice: "What if it's Fa Zheng's plan to lure the enemy? 20,000 iron horsemen, even 100,000 troops can't stop it! At the moment of the war, the fighter plane is fleeting, where can everything be clearly understood? I have made up my mind, tomorrow after nightfall, the army will go out of the city to break through! ”

Lu Lingqi didn't dare to say any more, and said in a low voice: "Since my father has already decided, Lingqi has no objections. Lingqi is willing to stay and hold on to the city, and if her father fails to break through, she can also retreat to Anding City. ”

Lu Bu frowned: "Lingqi, you don't believe in your father's martial arts?" I Lu Bu only have one daughter, how can I leave you behind! ”

Lu Lingqi smiled miserably: "Father, if all members of our army go out of the city, Ma Chao will take the opportunity to take the city, and he will continue to pursue our army, and it will be more difficult to break through at that time." The infantry and archers of our army are not as fast as the cavalry, and they will definitely be annihilated, so it is better to stay in stability and rely on the city to kill the enemy. My father returned to Chang'an and led the army back to help as soon as possible. ”

Lu Bu yelled: "No, absolutely not! You come with me, Wei Xu, you stay and defend the city! ”

Wei Xu was shocked: "Brother-in-law, my sister said that you would take care of me." I'm not Ma Chao's opponent, I can't hold it! ”

Lu Bu had a complicated expression on his face: "Raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while." Wei continued, Bu treats you very well on weekdays, and if Bu is in trouble today, you should also do something! In times of crisis, the only person I can trust is you. Your sister and your family in Chang'an, I will take care of it for you. Lingqi, you go and match the trapped camp with horses, you personally lead it, and break through with me. Remember, you have to be there for me at all times! ”

Vaguely hearing the threat in Lu Bu's words, the resentment in Wei Xu's eyes flashed, and the other generals had a sense of schadenfreude when they heard this, and some of the sadness of the dead rabbit and fox. However, no one objected, after all, if Wei Xu didn't stay, he might have to stay.

Three days passed in a flash, and the Wu Zhao army outside the city seemed to be rounding up Gao Shun's army with all their might, and only half of them had been evacuated, and the remaining half had also retreated for several miles under Xu Huang's attack.

The night was hazy, and the city of Anding City slowly opened. Lu Bu shouted: "Go!" "More than 20,000 iron horsemen poured out like a torrent in the night, and the deafening sound of horses' hooves seemed to tear the night sky!

Almost at the same time, a mixed force of 5,000 infantry and archers who did not know the truth swooped down on the Wu Zhaojun camp under Xu Huang's orders. The infantry threw fire objects in front, and the archers fired rockets in unison to launch a night attack on the Wu Zhao army camp!

However, Xu Huang himself led three thousand iron horsemen and galloped out from the opposite direction to join Lu Bu's army. The two armies converged, and the soldiers of Lu Bu, who had been recuperating for a few days, were like tigers and horses, and they were unstoppably retreating towards Chang'an City.

Wu Zhaojun's battalion reacted quickly. It's still spring, the air is humid, and the night is windless. The fire in the army of Levus was quickly extinguished, and the five thousand infantry archers who fought separately were quickly routed.

Wu Zhao was dressed in armor and jumped up from the bed: "Okay, Lu Bujun is out of the city!" Orders, trumpets, and the ministries act according to the plan! ”

Because of the previous explanation, everyone in the Wu Zhao army did not take off their armor at night. The military horn sounded, Yang Ren and Yin Jilun rushed out of the barracks, quickly assembled the team, turned over and hurriedly chased Lu Bujun. Sun Erniang also led 5,000 archers to follow Yang Ren, and Deng Fei led the 5,000 infantry allocated to him by Wu Zhao to push out a few behemoths from the barracks and quickly began to assemble: this is a trebuchet built by Sun Li's order, ready to fly stones to attack the city and crush the last defense line of the remaining Lu Bu's army!
