Chapter 81: Xiahoudun

Li Dao has been very irritable lately, not ordinary irritability.

I had a good discussion with Guo Yan before, but when I really got to this time, I found that the development of things was completely beyond my expectations - it can even be said that it was completely beyond the scope of normal people's understanding.

"The vanguard army of 5,000 people was beaten by Lu Bu alone, am I an idiot?"

When he heard the news at that time, the furious Li Dao thought that the soldier in front of him was playing with himself, but one person said this, two people said that they were spreading rumors, and hundreds of soldiers said this, so he couldn't help but be careless, and the soldiers who fled back were all pretending to be court soldiers and horses to spread rumors, right?

Whether it's true or not, if things are allowed to develop like this, I am afraid that this battle will not have to be fought, and just relying on this speechless 'rumor' is enough to collapse his army - this is also the reason why Liu Xuan has always disliked the current half-peasant and half-soldier. It's just that before Liu Xuan, limited by grain production, such a military system was the most common system.

Therefore, Li Dao had no choice but to send another army and horses to attack while Lu Bu was encamped, not to win this battle, but to be able to break the hateful rumor.

In any case, he didn't believe that a person could be so strong, it was not an exaggeration to rampage around with thousands of soldiers, and it was so terrifying that anyone who came close to Lu Bu would be killed by him, which was too much nonsense.

What kind of halberd is picked out, even if it is not swept by the halberd, it will be divided by a strange force, how can this happen, no matter how strong Lu Bu is, he is just a person, and he is not a ghost!

What's more, it's not that Li Dao hasn't seen Lu Bu practice martial arts, although he is strong, he is still a person, could it be that he suddenly became a ghost and god in such a short period of time?

But after a battle, instead of breaking the rumors, it confirmed Lu Bu's reputation for arrogance, because this time Lu Bu once again rushed into the army alone and killed, and his soldiers were like rows of straw men in front of him, and they could hardly do anything except be cut in two by him.

If it weren't for him Li Wei seeing the opportunity quickly and leaving in time, he might have to give an account for his life.

"Lu Bu, how did you become so terrifying?"

He was puzzled, it was clear that although the original Lu Bu was strong, it didn't come to such a point, and he Li Dao was also a famous general in the Xiliang Army, even if he couldn't win a fight with Lu Bu, he could parry it for a while. But now, if he is asked to go and fight Lu Bu alone, unless he has a problem with his brain.

He sat in his tent and was sad for a while, and the night passed like this.

He knew that it was useless for him to sit like this, after all, the imperial army had already been killed in front of him, and Lu Bu's killing god was on the opposite side, so he couldn't stare at himself here, right?

"Fortunately, Guo Aduo's side is quite normal!"

Guo Aduo is Guo Yan, Ado is Guo Yan's nickname, and those close to him know it, but Li Dao only calls it that way in his heart, after all, it is too rude to call him by a nickname.

Two days ago, he had just received a letter from Guo Yan, and learned that Ma Teng had raised troops, and Guo Yan had taken his men to intercept it, and now the two sides had exchanged hands in the west. That Liangzhou is next to it, Ma Teng is very resolute in sending troops, there is no delay at all, at the moment Guo Yan and Ma Teng are fighting, although the specific result is not known, but looking at the news that came a few days ago, Guo Yan's side is not a big problem.

But the more this is the case, the more depressed Li Wei becomes-Guo Yan has resisted it, and he can't resist it on his side, doesn't it show that he is incompetent?

In terms of the strength on the books, there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under the account of Liangzhou Thorn Shi Ma Teng, among which there are countless elite cavalry and Qiang cavalry, which is an extremely powerful force in this northwest place, and look at the imperial army: 10,000 forbidden troops, 3,000 tiger army, and 2,000 Yulin army...... Lin Lin finally counted the people, and the total number of soldiers and horses was only more than 20,000.

Looking at Li Dao's own hands, the total number of soldiers and horses in each department is 40,000 people, more than half of which are Xiliang elites, and there are thousands of Xiliang iron cavalry, such strength, he now has no confidence to win, I have to say that yesterday's battle, the impact on him is too amazing.

was having a headache, only to hear a commotion outside the tent, Li Wei raised his eyes and looked, and was stunned for a while before coming back to his senses: "What happened outside?"

"General!"

The soldiers rushed in and immediately clasped their fists and said: "There is a general who is shouting and scolding outside, threatening to level the camp of our army. ”

Li Dao was stunned: "But Lu Bu?" He felt that since the emperor had a pervert like Lu Bu in his hands, it seemed that there was no need to bother others anymore, not to mention that Lu Bu himself was also quite belligerent, and he would definitely not let others show off in such a big war.

"No, it's a lieutenant named Xiahoudun. ”

Li Dao was stunned when he heard this: "Xiahoudun?"

He thought about it for a long time, and then he remembered that when he was in Chang'an, Xiahoudun was in the Yulin Ride, and now he has become a captain.

This lieutenant doesn't seem to be a big official, but in fact, before the general's horn was flooded, the captain was the real power figure in the army, and they were the ones who directly commanded the soldiers and horses of various departments.

Zhonglang General is the one who commands these captains - in fact, they don't belong to each other at all, it's just that the Han Dynasty uses people like this, and no one can do it, Liu Xuan has a headache when he sees this situation, so he wants to restructure.

Therefore, according to his authority and status, Li Dao is firmly above Xiahou Dun, not to mention that Xiahou Dun has stayed in the Yulin Cavalry since he entered Beijing, and he is not very seen on weekdays, Li Dao is not familiar with this person, he is only a nobody, because he has a kinship with Cao Cao, this can become the captain.

"Nameless rats, how dare you be so rampant?"

He Li Dao is also a famous and surnamed figure in the world, Lu Bu can't afford to provoke him, and even a mere Xiahoudun dares to run in front of him to and pee, is he really a good-tempered person?

"Prepare your troops and horses, and go with me to meet the enemy!"

He didn't take off his armor at all, he stood up at this time, picked up his weapon and was about to go out, but this time he got up too violently, and he only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he almost fell. Thanks to the guards next to him, he moved fast enough to hold him up, so he didn't make a fool of himself.

"I haven't slept all night, and I'm a little tired. ”

But now is not the time to go back to rest and sleep, Li Dao had to take cold water and wipe his face, then pick up his knife and get on the horse, take the soldiers out of the camp to set up a formation, and confront Xiahoudun from afar.

"The kid is so rampant, report his name first!"

Xiahoudun has been scolding here since the morning, scolding for more than half an hour, his throat is about to shout and smoke, but no one has come out, and when Li Dao does not dare to fight with him today, he is thinking about turning the horse back to the camp, and then asking His Majesty to lead the troops to attack the village, I don't want to come out of a team of people on the opposite side at this juncture.

When he was in Chang'an, he saw Li Dao, but his status was not particularly high at that time, and Li Dao didn't pay attention to him, so he didn't know him, but he knew each other.

"A certain surname Xiahou is the character Yuan Rang, and he is the captain of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Left Military Academy!"

The tiger and leopard cavalry is divided into tiger cavalry and leopard cavalry, corresponding to the left army and the right army, each with a captain under the command, and the status is similar to that of the left and right supervisors of Yulin, but the title directly takes the name of the captain. Xiahoudun is the captain of the left army, and in fact, the official title is the captain of the tiger cavalry.

"What a tiger and leopard ride, I haven't heard of it!"

Of course, Li Dao didn't know what the tiger and leopard cavalry was, it was an elite cavalry unit that Cao Cao wanted to build, and he was still in the reorganization and training in the north, and he had never shown his face in the eyes of the public.

However, because of this, he didn't care about this Xiahoudun, but just casually ordered a captain next to him: "Go and cut off this arrogant junior." ”

After working hard for a while, he had already planned in his chest, and knew that it would be difficult for him to win today's big battle - Lu Bu's toughness was the most demoralizing, and as long as his soldiers were slaughtered by him to a certain extent, they would not dare to fight against him again, so that battle could not be fought at all.

Even if Li Dao wanted to use soldiers to constantly encircle and suppress him, and consume Lu Bu to death, he had to have enough dead soldiers - he had a lot of soldiers and horses, but there were not many dead soldiers.

Therefore, the outcome of this battle is already doomed, but Li Dao still has to fight, not for anything else, but for his own life - he has already thought that as long as he fights to a certain extent and shows his strength, then I can surrender, in that case, even if the power is not as good as it is today, I can be rich and noble for a lifetime.

After all, there are too few soldiers and horses in the imperial court, and if you really want to fight, no matter how brave you Lu Bu are, you can't resist your tens of thousands of troops at once, right?

Therefore, at present, it is necessary to give the court a little bit of strength first, so that they understand that they are not powerless to fight back, so that they have the capital to negotiate. Thinking about it like this, Li Wei's mood also improved a lot, and his expression when he looked at the army opposite was not as helpless as at night, but he consciously saw a way out again.

But he was in a good mood on his side, and he only heard a scream in front of him. Hurriedly looked up, but saw that the captain named Xiahoudun was holding a spear, and suddenly pulled it out of the heart of the lieutenant he had sent, and with the action of pulling out the spear, the captain also fell off his horse with a pop, and after splashing some dust, there was nothing else.

"What?"

The lieutenant he sent was not an ordinary soldier, and he was also quite brave in his army, so he was stabbed to death with one shot in this face?

In fact, it was not only him who was surprised, but also some people over there were surprised, Liu Bei looked at Xiahoudun, who was holding a spear in the field and sitting majestically on a horse, turned his head to his two younger brothers and said: "There are indeed countless capable people in the world, and I don't know how many people with extraordinary skills in this court alone." It seems that my brothers want to make great achievements, and it is not so easy. ”
