Chapter 16: The Great Victory

When Du Bugen was still thinking about turning the tide.

Suddenly, there was a rush of confusion in the rear, followed by some deserters running from the rear.

This made Du Bugen completely dumbfounded.

Could it be that Lu Bu and this guy are deliberately trying to annihilate us this time, and they actually sent people to attack from behind, attacking from both sides?

Zhang Liao encountered night fog on the way to lead the troops, and went in the wrong direction for a while.

When he tried his best to get out of the night fog, he found that Lu Bu had already launched an attack.

He hurriedly led 3,000 cavalry to kill from the rear, and at once he smashed into the Xianbei formation, heading straight to the main general.

Seeing that Lu Bu led the cavalry to sweep over like a bamboo, the rear was also in chaos.

Du Bugen was completely panicked at this time.

There are pursuers in front and pursuers in the back, what can I do now?

Amid the frightened screams, the Xianbei cavalry of several small tribes was the first to collapse and flee desperately.

The rout and escape of these people immediately had a huge negative impact on the Xianbei army, and the retreating tide quickly caused a chain reaction, and one after another Xianbei were coerced and fled.

Du Bugen was in a panic, and was surrounded by more rout soldiers who scattered and fled, and at this time he couldn't even maintain the situation with his own troops and horses.

Yi Lou just wanted to rush up and resist Lu Bushi.

Du Bugen was so frightened that he shouted anxiously: "Cover me to break through." ”

The defeat has been achieved, and it is not human to save it.

What's more, even if you are not an opponent, you Yilou is even less of an opponent.

The top priority is to rush out, I can't die here with such a precious life.

Du Bugen turned around and ran. Yi Lou led hundreds of cavalry to escort him to the side to break through.

As soon as Du Bugen fled, his handsome flag followed.

Seeing that Shuai Qi had run away, all the Xianbei people panicked.

They all wanted to have four legs and run away for their lives.

The whole battlefield is one-sided.

There was not much obstruction, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao fought against each other and led the troops to converge.

Zhang Liao hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "General." ”

Lu Bu interrupted the other party's words and shouted: "Now is not the time to talk, Zhang Liao, you lead the troops to chase and kill the one on the right, and I will chase and kill the one on the left!" ”

"Order!" Zhang Liao shouted, leading the cavalry to turn the horse's head and continue the pursuit.

Lu Bu led the troops to shoot and saw Du Bugen's back.

He yelled.

"Don't run. Take your life! ”

After shouting, Lu Bu was scolding in his heart.

Raised by a son of a bitch, she didn't run away faster.

If it weren't for the fact that you were still a little useful, you would need to fight against Kirby, so that he would not be able to unify Xianbei in a short period of time and endanger the big man.

Otherwise, Lao Tzu would have shot you with an arrow.

Where will you remain until now.

Dog thief. Run faster, run more!

I can't even run away, what's the use of keeping you!

Hearing the roar, Du Bugen not only did not stop, but also beat the horse's belly wildly and accelerated to escape.

Damn, Lao Tzu just thought that Dong Zhuo was beaten away, and when he was weak, he grabbed him.

I didn't expect to be targeted by you, a vicious wolf.

Too unlucky.

The passing year is unlucky!

Next time, I won't come to Yongzhou again, this wolf is too terrible.

Lu Bu led the troops all the way to chase and kill the remnants of Du Bugen for ten miles, and then led the troops to stop, and led those ownerless war horses back along the way.

Dead horses also had the warriors cut off their flesh and bring them back.

Return to the Xianbei camp, free all the Han slaves, give them some horse meat, and let them go home.

As for the women, some of them committed suicide.

Those who did not commit suicide were brought back to the soldiers if they were willing to follow.

These days, like a soldier, it's good to have a mother-in-law.

Where is there so much exquisiteness.

And the state army searched for the booty.

More than 2,000 cattle and sheep, some gold and silver jewelry. What made Lu Bu happiest was the capture of 1,700 intact war horses.

With these horses, it was possible to form another cavalry of more than a thousand people.

Xianbei's original camp has now become the camp of the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, and Cheng Lian led a thousand cavalry to patrol the periphery.

Not far away, the pigsty that used to hold the Han people is now holding more than 300 Xianbei prisoners.

They will soon be presented to Dong Zhuo as trophies. As for the end that awaited them, they were either beheaded or worked as slaves.

There was a fire in front of the tent, and a sheep was roasting with a few sticks.

Zhang Liao clenched his fists and said: "The last general did not attack on time, and made a big mistake early, please punish the general." ”

Lu Bu waved his hand and said: "What did Wen Yuan say, in this battle, you led the troops to attack in time, defeated the enemy's rear in one fell swoop, and cooperated with Ben to defeat Xianbei, what a crime." There is no mistake in the merit, and I will definitely report it to commend you for your merit. ”

"But ......"

Lu Bu said: "It's nothing, sit down and try my craft!" ”

"I ......"

Lu Bu grimaced and scolded: "Sit! ”

"No!"

Lu Bu cut off a leg of mutton with a short knife and handed it to Zhang Liao. "Come and have a taste."

"General Xie!"

Lu Bu cut off a leg of mutton with a knife and gave it to Wei Yue, so he cut off his own piece and ate it.

There are no seasonings in later generations, that is, a little coarse salt is added, and there is no other taste except for the aroma of barbecue.

In a big battle, the physical exertion is a lot, and eating a large piece of mutton is also happy.

After eating a piece of lamb leg in a big gulp, Lu Bu threw the bones into the fire, grabbed a handful of charcoal ashes, plucked it with both hands, patted it, and knocked the dust off.

He picked up the wine bag and raised it high, shouting: "In this battle, our army of 6,000 defeated 20,000 Xianbei barbarians, killed more than 3,000 people, and won a complete victory. It all depends on the desperate struggle of all the brothers, and I, Lu Bu, have a cup to everyone. Drink! ”

"Drink!"

After Lu Bu took a sip, he continued to shout loudly: "Benhou will not take any of the captured this time, and will give them to all the brothers. After I go back, I will definitely ask the master for merit and invite everyone for merit. ”

I heard that the general did not want to capture it this time, and all of it was distributed to the soldiers. The cavalry of Bingzhou immediately cheered excitedly. "General Xie."

Lu Bu waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and he also sat down and continued to drink to quench his thirst.

Zhang Liao suddenly remembered someone and said, "General, the last general was able to successfully find the Xianbei stronghold this time, thanks to the guidance of a horse dealer. ”

Lu Bu understood what the other party meant, and said, "Invite him over, Benhou will be rewarded." ”

"Yes."

Because he was afraid that Xianbei would take a back carbine, and the iron cavalry of Bingzhou did not dare to get drunk, that is, after tasting a few bites, he slept directly in armor after eating meat.

In the afternoon, Lu Bu got up and washed his face.

Zhang Liao came in with Zhang Shiping.

As soon as Zhang Shiping saw Lu Bu, he immediately made a move. "Grass man Zhang Shiping meets the general!"

Zhang Shiping?

Lu Bu suddenly thought of someone and said, "You are the Zhang Shiping who funded Liu Bei's three brothers with Su Shuang?" ”

Zhang Shiping didn't expect that Lu Bu would even know this.

He was so frightened that he immediately fell to his knees.

"General Mingjian, the grass people didn't know that these three brothers would be rebels. The grass people originally saw that the three brothers were going to fight the yellow turban thieves, so they funded them. If they knew that they dared to go against the general and the Taishi, the little ones would not have funded them. ”

When Lu Bu saw Zhang Shiping because of his words, he was so frightened that he kowtowed and begged for mercy.

He hurriedly pulled Zhang Shiping up. "Get up. I didn't mean to blame you. ”

Seeing that Lu Bu didn't seem to want to kill himself, Zhang Shiping was relieved.

"General Xie!"

Lu Bu asked, "Are you a horse dealer?" ”

"General Hui, yes."

Lu Bu nodded and said, "That's good, it just so happens that General Ben wants to buy some war horses." You help Ben find a suitable war horse and bring it to Chang'an. General Ben will give you the right pay. ”

When Zhang Shiping heard that Lu Bu was going to help find the horses by himself, he immediately became interested and hurriedly asked, "I don't know how many horses the general wants?" ”

Lu Bu thought for a while and said, "Let's find enough 2,000 horses first." ”

When Zhang Shiping heard this, his eyes lit up.

Two thousand horses. That's not a small amount.

Zhang Shiping hurriedly agreed: "The grass people are willing to find horses for the general, but this horse suitable for war horses is not cheap." A ...... The asking price is 20,000 yuan. ”

Lu Bu didn't speak, just looked at Zhang Shiping.

Zhang Shiping saw Lu Bu's smile full of meaning, and was so frightened that he quickly changed his words and said: "General, at least fifteen thousand, otherwise there is really no way to do it." Last year's snowstorm caused many horses to freeze to death. The price of horses has risen quite a bit this year. ”

Lu Bu then said, "Okay." A horse of 15,000 is 15,000, remember, if you want a good horse in the north, if you dare to fool Ben Hou, Ben Hou wants your head. ”

Where did Zhang Shiping dare to fool Lu Bu. This guy in front of him is notorious.

"Don't worry, general, the grass people have a few heads that dare to lie to you, general. It must be a good horse from the Northland. ”

Lu Bu soothed and said: "Work hard, good things are indispensable to you." ”

"Yes!"

One day later, Lu Bu led more than 5,000 cavalry, drove the slaves, and carried cattle, sheep and horses back.

Two days later, he joined Li Su and them.

I saw the prisoners of Lu Bu's army, as well as the group of cattle, sheep and horses.

Li Su and Jia Xu immediately knew that Lu Bu had defeated the Xianbei clan.

They clasped their fists one after another and said: "Congratulations to the general, congratulations to the general, defeat Xianbei, and raise the prestige of our country." ”

Lu Bu smiled and said, "It's all your help. Rest assured that everyone has credit, and they will never be disadvantaged to everyone. ”

Although Gao Shun didn't make much effort this time, they couldn't run for nothing. A little credit should be given to them.

When Li Su heard that Lu Bu acted so generously, he was overjoyed.

I didn't contribute much on this expedition, but I was able to get credit.

Not bad! Not bad!

This Lu Bu doesn't know how, his personality has changed a lot.

However, he is a lot more generous, and he is a lot smarter.

Jia Xu's mentality is complicated.

Defeating Xianbei is a credit. But this time, he followed Lu Bu and followed the state army.

What you gain, probably not as much as you lose.

After going back, how to explain it to Niu Fu is a troublesome matter.

Ay. If he could, Jia Xu hoped that it would be better not to take this credit.

Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng didn't think too much about it.

There are brave and invincible pilots, how can they lose.

Yes, definitely not to lose.

The flying general Lu Bu is invincible and invincible, and has not tasted defeat so far.

The brilliant achievements made everyone under his command worship Lu Bu very much, and in their opinion, as long as they followed behind Lu Bu, they would absolutely defeat all enemies and make meritorious achievements.

Lu Bu's strong strength, even if he killed his father-in-law Ding Yuan, he was despised.

Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Hou Cheng and others also followed Lu Bu.

This time, the general defeated the enemy as easily as ever, and everyone got the credit.

Sure enough, the original decision was on the ground.

They all arched their hands and said, "General Xie! ”

Lu Bu waved his hand happily and said, "Okay, good." Walk. Let's go back to Beijing! ”

"Yes."

Under the big victory, except for Jia Xu, everyone happily embarked on the road back to Beijing.

Jia Xu can leave a reputation in history, and his mentality is naturally strong.

Although this military feat was not a joy for him, Jia Xu was still very happy to be able to defeat Xianbei and protect the border for a while.

After listening to Lu Bu say that this sortie defeated 20,000 Xianbei, annihilated more than 3,600 Xianbei, captured more than 400 people, and captured nearly 2,000 war horses.

Jia Xu arched his hand and said: "Congratulations to the general for his victory, the Taishi knows that he will definitely reward the general." Wen He congratulates the general here. ”

Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "Mr. Wenhe's strategy is extraordinary, but it's a pity that my Lu Bu has insufficient troops and can't finish the battle and let the Dubugen clan escape." Oh, even a pity! ”

Jia Xu reassured: "The general does not have to be ashamed. Xianbei comes and goes like the wind, and it is difficult to catch them, not to mention that the general defeated 20,000 with 6,000, and the famous generals of the ancient times are nothing more than that. The general's attack this time can be said to have hit Xianbei hard, and after this battle, Xianbei did not dare to invade the Han Dynasty again for several years. ”

Lu Bu asked, "It's just a small victory, not enough to be happy." I just don't know how to permanently solve the problem of border troubles. ”

"Difficult. When Xianbei saw that we were strong, they retreated into the depths of the grassland. It's too hard for us to annihilate them. Otherwise, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would not have been able to defeat the Xiongnu and completely annihilate them. ”

If it is defeated again and again, but it cannot completely solve the border problem, it will only consume national strength in the long run.

You have to think of a good way.

What is the best way to do it?

Seeing that he was about to return to Chang'an, Lu Bu pressed this matter down first.

Solve the number one problem first, and then move on to the rest.

Back in Qiyuan County, the army camped.

Lu Bu instructed Cheng Lian and Wei Yue: "Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, you go and call Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and the main generals of our army, remember, don't alarm others." I have important matters to discuss with them. ”

Although they didn't know what important things the general had to discuss, Cheng Lian and Wei Yue still went to Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Cao Xing, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Hao Meng, and Hou Cheng as instructed.

Soon, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao heard the summons and came to Lu Bu's camp.

"General!"

Seeing that his subordinates were all due, Lu Bu instructed the guards. "All go out and guard, no one is allowed to come in without my order, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!"

"No!"

More than 30 guards immediately went out and guarded the surroundings with knives.

Cheng Lian and the others saw Lu Bu's actions like this, and they knew that what he was going to say was definitely not small.

They all waited quietly for what Lu Bu was going to say.

Lu Bu's first sentence completely frightened them.

"Benhou has a secret letter from the emperor asking me to kill Dong Zhuo!"

"Ah......h
