Chapter 590: Xiahou Yuan Encounters Lu Bu

With an earth-shattering roar. It is not only the west gate of Xiapi City that was blown up into the sky, but also the heroic sacrifice of Cao Bao who fought bloodily, and a cavalry of 20,000 galloping at high speed.

When Zhang Xun was still vigorously encouraging his corporals to sacrifice their lives for silver and women, he first heard a huge rumbling sound from Ximen, and before he could understand the situation, he suddenly heard the adjutant general next to him say as if his throat was choked: "General, general...... Hurry, look backwards, look backwards!

Zhang Xun then turned his head to look behind him, and he saw that a puff of billowing smoke and dust was less than two miles away from the East City Gate, and on the banner waving in the wind, Huo Ran had big characters "Zhao" and "Lu"! The cavalry that could not see the edge at a glance was like a giant Lang that rushed to the sky when the tsunami broke out, mercilessly trampling the soldiers who left Zhang Xun behind and were responsible for the grain and grass load, and then continued to rush in the direction where Zhang Xun landed.

Zhang Xun, who came back to his senses, shouted like crazy: "Hurry up and withdraw the troops, it is the iron cavalry of the Jin Kingdom that is here! God, how can so many cavalry appear on the Xuzhou Plain!"

Zhao Yun and Lu Bu rode two strong and tall high-grade horses, and calmly led the Flying Tiger Army to gallop forward, followed by 20,000 cavalry behind them, indescribably arrogant. For the knights of the Flying Tiger Army, they have never encountered the scene of the two commanders leading the charge at the same time, they have been very bored in the northeast for a long time, and now when they set foot on the land of the Central Plains, they are actually led by the two most fierce cavalry commanders in the Protector Army, and the pride and enthusiasm in their hearts can be imagined.

Lu Bu, who is on a par with Zhao Yun, has really tried to compete with Zhao Yun before he joined Zhao Xing. At that time, Zhao Yun saw that he was injured, and took the initiative to tie his arm, but he still won against Lu Bu. Although Lu Bu's mood was a little low at that time, and his right arm was injured by Zhao Xing, he had no doubt that even if the two were in the same state, he might not be able to beat Zhao Yun. Once the warriors who have broken into the realm of divine courage meet, no one can say that they will win.

The so-called heroes cherish heroes, Lu Bu admires Zhao Yun from the bottom of his heart. Especially when he took over the cavalry division that was still the predecessor of the Flying Tiger Army at that time from Zhang Liao, he knew how much effort Zhao Yun had put in as the first commander of this cavalry unit that crisscrossed the northern desert. Lu Bu was born in cavalry, and he thought that he didn't have the ability to create such a cavalry team, so he admired Zhao Yun's ability more and more.

After the war on the eastern and western fronts began, Lu Bu has been very depressed. As the sharpest spear in the Protector Army, Zhao Xing didn't even mean to activate the Flying Tiger Army, but instead let Lu Bu be stationed in Youbeiping with peace of mind and watched the other soldiers kill in all directions. Fortunately, Guan Yu, the in-law of the Western Front, also became a general, and he never personally led the troops into battle, otherwise Lu Bu was afraid that he would die in a hurry. Sometimes Lu Bu is complaining about Guan Ping, if he hadn't listened to his good son-in-law's advice and hid in the territory of Xiong Zhenjun with the Flying Tiger Army when the snow disaster came, he would not have guarded the east gate for Xiong Zhenjun now.

After waiting for half a year, Xu Shu finally led Xiong Zhen's army back to Youbeiping, and then Lu Bu felt that his spring had come. He happily led his army to Quanzhou Naval City, commanded his men and horses to board the big ship, and after two or three days of staggering on the sea, he actually met Zhao Yun on the handsome ship. After that, he took a boat all the way south to Yuzhou Island, crossed the strait and went straight to Xiapi, looking at the city wall that had been vividly remembered, he could finally kill the Quartet, and with the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand to make new achievements, how could Lu Bu not be proud.

Zhao Yun has always been extremely calm, and his desire for military exploits is not as hot as Lu Bu, he is more concerned about the situation of the entire Qingxu battlefield. When he heard a loud bang, his first reaction was such a loud noise, it was impossible for the defenders of Xuzhou in the city to make it, so the rest may be that a certain army besieging the city used gunpowder!

Zhao Yun didn't know that the explosion coming from the west was made by Xiahou Yuan, but he knew that Yuan Shao's army had made a violent explosion under Linzi City, so no matter who made this noise, it was not a good thing for Xiapi. Zhao Yun turned his head to Lu Bu and said: "Fengxian, there is a violent explosion from the west, I am afraid that a certain military force attacking the city has gunpowder, in case the city gate is broken, it will be dangerous!"

When Lu Bu heard Zhao Yun's words, he was also very anxious, and hurriedly asked, "What should I do now?

Zhao Yun commanded loudly: "Let's ignore the troops in front, just rush and enter the city, and only attack the west gate from the west gate of Xiapi City, so as to prevent the enemy from attacking Xiapi from the west gate!"

"Okay! That's it! Brothers, charge with me, don't scatter the formation, go straight to the city!" Lu Bu opened his voice and shouted to the army behind him.

Zhang Xun should really be grateful for the loud noise outside the West Gate, responsible for today he is the first general to be handed over to Xiapi City. Because Zhao Yun and Lu Bu had no intention of attacking Zhang Xun's troops, and Zhang Xun was very familiar with each other, he commanded the troops to flee for their lives at the first time, so the Flying Tiger Army arrived at the gate of the East City as quickly as possible.

Zhao Yu, who was stationed at the east gate, had already seen the two big flags with the words "Zhao" and "Lu" written on them, so without waiting for Lu Bu to come to the city to report his home, he had already hurriedly called the soldiers guarding the city to turn the big grinding plate that lowered the drawbridge and lifted the city gate. Many of the soldiers guarding the city had been to Crouching Tiger City, so they naturally recognized the Jin army, so they did not hesitate to carry out Zhao Yu's order.

Lu Bu and Zhao Yun, who came to the city gate cave, rushed in first, and then didn't have time to greet Zhao Yu, so they galloped along the central avenue that led straight to the west gate in Xiapi City.

Seeing that the gate tower of the West City had been wiped out and the thick smoke of gunpowder gradually dissipated, Xiahou Yuan's spear had been shouting loudly from the huge gap not far away: "Brothers, the city gate has been broken, rush into the city with me to capture Tao Qian alive!"

The moat under the West City Gate has now been filled with rammed earth after the explosion, and the Cao soldiers who rushed in front quickly removed the big stones blocking the road, leveling a road that could be used by war horses to walk together, and Xiahou Yuan then eagerly jumped over and broke into the city from under the dilapidated former city gate.

Zhao Yun and Lu Bu had already tightened the reins of their horses, because the place where they were now standing was the main gate of the collapsed West City. Listening to the tsunami-like shouts of soldiers outside the city, needless to say, the two of them also knew that the enemy army was about to enter the city.

At this time, Lu Bu had calmed down his anxious mood on the road when he came, and he calmly ordered: "Pass my general's order, all the front troops will dismount and prepare for street fighting! The rear army obeyed the command of Commander Zhao and went out of the city from the north gate to outflank the enemy!"

Lu Bu gave the order before Zhao Yun, not to fight for power, but to know the depth of the enemy army outside the city, so he left the danger to himself. Zhao Yun, as the coach on the Qingxu battlefield, although his martial arts are no worse than him, he can't be caught in the crisis of street fighting.

Xiahou Yuan finally entered the city, but when he saw clearly the mighty general on the opposite side who was holding a Fang Tian painting halberd and riding a white horse, he felt a sigh in his heart!
