Chapter 345: Lu Bu's suicide attack
Although the big tent discussion is in the end, the focus is on Cao Ren's right hand.
But he settled down with the tactics of static braking.
In the next few days, the imperial army was improving the camp, and it seemed that they had forgotten about Lu County, which was close at hand.
A few days later, Ma Chao arrived with his army.
However, Xiahou Yuan seemed to have disappeared completely, and even the probe horse sent by Cao Ren was not found.
Xuzhou has had two snowfalls in succession in the past few days, and the temperature has plummeted.
This is very rare in the south of Xuzhou.
Cao Ren was worried that the change in weather would hurt the morale of the army, so he prepared to recall the soldiers and horses of Xiahou Yuan's troops.
Unexpectedly, he sent out more than a dozen scouts to the north and south, but he was stunned and didn't find anyone.
……
When Lu Bu first arrived in Lu County, he arranged his troops and began to prepare for an active attack.
But his troops had not yet been put together, but he found that the imperial army outside the city had built high camps and spread the beacons of watchtowers.
It's simply that in addition to the small broken city of Lu County, another city has been built.
This made Lu Bu stunned on the spot.
He said angrily to Chen Gong: "The imperial court army has tens of thousands of horses, and the soldiers are strong and strong, and they don't even think about attacking the city, but put on such a formation, what does this mean?" ”
Chen Gong was actually a little confused.
The imperial court army's move is more like a random move.
With tens of thousands of elite soldiers in hand, when the long drive goes straight to Pengcheng, it is the right way, how can you use such a conservative style of play?
They obviously have enough strength to attack the city, but they don't fight!
Chen Gong couldn't think of a suitable reason after thinking about it.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, the cost of eating horses and chewing a day is a very terrifying number.
"I can't see the purpose of the enemy army for the time being, so it's better for the lord to take the initiative to lead the troops to attack, probe the reality of the enemy army, and figure out who the lord will be!" Chen Gong suggested.
"Good!" Lu Bu responded, and before leaving, he whispered to Chen Gong, "Zhenrong, this big traitor seems to be loyal, two-faced and three-stabbed, after I leave the city, you lead people to stare at him, if he dares to act rashly, kill him!" ”
"Whoa!" Chen Gong bowed.
Lu Bu took Gao Shun and picked up the 2,000 soldiers recruited by Zhang Chao from Guangling and left Lu County.
Without any hindrance, Lu Bu went directly to the front of the imperial army camp in one go, and did not stop until he was shot by a crossbow arrow.
"Will the thief dare to fight me!" Lu Bu brandished his halberd and roared loudly.
Feng Huan appeared on the watchtower on both sides of the gate, and he was eating with a small black pot in his hand.
"What are you shouting about? You are the thief, who is the thief! Go back, my general said, don't fight. ”
"Don't fight?!" Lu Bu was almost vomited blood on the spot, "If you don't have the guts, why hide your head and show your tail." ”
Feng Huan snorted and drank the soup in the pot and said: "Go back to the city and rest, it's not that you don't dare to fight, it's that you don't want to fight with you, when my army attacks the city, you can give the head with peace of mind." Don't understand? Rebel Lu Bu! ”
How could the arrogant Lu Bu stand this insult.
With a roar, he threw the halberd in his hand at Feng Huan, and yelled and ordered the arrow to be released.
"The head is not too good, traitor Lu Bu!"
On the side of Feng Huan's head, he dodged the flying halberd, and taunted Lu Bu by the way.
"A gutsless man who can only take advantage of his tongue, release arrows!" Lu Bu was furious, and he had to open his hair when he boarded.
Gao Shun wanted to persuade, but seeing Lu Bu moving forward alone, it was too late, so he had to urge the soldiers to release arrows.
The rain of arrows flew towards the watchtower like a horse, and Feng Huan raised the small black cauldron in his hand unhurriedly.
Iron shields were instantly erected in front of him, blocking him tightly.
The arrows flew, and only a jingling sound was heard and rang happily.
But none of them were rooted in people.
Above the watchtower, plus Feng Huan, there were only a dozen people, even if it was just ten shields, it was enough to protect them safely.
When the movement of the arrow rain was a little less, Feng Huan's head poked out from the middle of the shield, "Rebel General Lu Bu, you should know that you are not rude, come here, release arrows for me!" ”
At the sound of an order, countless crossbow arrows instantly poked out from the camp wall more than a foot high.
When Gao Shun saw it, his scalp was numb instantly.
He was just about to persuade Lu Bu to withdraw his troops, but he saw that Lu Bu had already galloped back, and he was still shouting to retreat.
In the face of the dense crossbow arrows poking out of the battlement, Gao Shun dared to hesitate and quickly led the army to retreat.
But how can the speed of the two legs of the foot soldier outperform the flying crossbow arrows.
In an instant, the people turned on their backs, and the slower rear army fell down like a straw that had been put down.
If it is said that Lu Bujun's arrow rain is a drizzling rain.
The rain of arrows of the imperial army is the downpour brought by the dark clouds on the top of the cover.
In just this instant, a round of arrows rained down tens of thousands of crossbow arrows.
Lu Bu led the army to withdraw from a stone's throw before stopping.
When the number of people is counted, it is nearly half.
Lu Bu, who was already angry, almost burst out with a mouthful of blood on the spot.
What made him even more depressed was that this anger had not yet been sprinkled!
Hundreds of soldiers were lost, which was caused by his rash advance.
Even if he wanted to kill in a reckless way to avenge these fallen soldiers, the enemy army had built a high camp, and the walls were densely packed with battlements that were convenient for firing arrows, and he didn't even have a chance to use force.
Such a defense is several times stricter than the walled city of Lu County.
Even if Lu Bu has a silver tooth and iron mouth, it seems that he can't make a hole in this camp.
"General, let's withdraw, the enemy army is heavily guarded, and we are really helpless." Gao Shun persuaded.
He saw that Lu Bu's face seemed to be a little unwilling, and he couldn't help but be a little worried.
The enemy army does not leave the camp, and the difficulty of attacking this camp with them should be comparable to Pengcheng, or even higher.
"I'm not staying here to attack, I just forgot the advice of the public station!" Lu Bu said.
Gao Shun was speechless for a moment, Chen Gongtai definitely didn't let him ride down the enemy's camp alone.
It's a little late to say forget now.
"The public platform has asked me to figure out who the enemy commander is, but how to figure it out at this time?" Lu Bu whispered.
When Gao Shun heard that this was the case, he immediately said: "This matter is simple, please wait a while, general!" ”
After speaking, Gao Shun rode towards the camp of the imperial army and shouted: "My general asks himself if he is not the enemy of the imperial court, and he is willing to sincerely repent and surrender." But my general has a condition, he must have a person who can speak in the court, I don't know who this landlord will be? Can you do it the Lord! ”
Feng Huan was watching indifferently, and his first reaction when he heard this was suspicion.
At the last moment, he threw himself into the halberd to attack the camp, and he was about to surrender when he turned around, which was very greasy.
But he didn't dare to jump to conclusions, and hurriedly sent someone to report the matter to Cao Ren.
After Cao Ren learned about it, he came together with Zhang Ji.
Feng Huan talked about the battle and his own suspicions, and persuaded: "General, I think it must be the conspiracy of the traitor General Lu Bu, how can there be a sudden surrender one moment to attack the camp and the next moment." ”
Cao Ren said: "It doesn't matter, even if it's a conspiracy, they just want to find out who the Lord will be so that they can find weaknesses." But if Lu Bu is really willing to surrender, Lu County will be broken in an instant. ”
