Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Lu Bu's reputation as the most powerful general in the world is definitely not false. He is really superb with his square-shaped painted halberd. He can maintain an undefeated situation with one against four. The five of them fight like a lantern, with smoke and dust everywhere, making it difficult to distinguish.  Cao Cao sighed under his banner: "L¨¹ Bu can't be defeated by one person! If I can get such a fierce general, why worry about Yanzhou's uncertainty!" He said it unintentionally, but listened intentionally. When Cheng Yu heard this, he suddenly thought of a person and said: "L¨¹ Bu is just one person."  An unjust person will be in danger of killing his master. Yu recommends someone who can defeat Lu Bu!" Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "Who is Zhongde talking about?" Cheng Yu said: "Two hundred people away from here!  There is a Xu family in Qiao County, Qiao State, which is a local prominent family. There is a strong man named Xu Chu, whose courtesy name is Zhongkang. Because he is the second in rank, he is also called Xu Er. He is more than eight feet long and has a big waist.  Shiwei, with a majestic appearance and extraordinary courage, gathered thousands of strong men and civilians in the local area to build a fort to resist the invasion of the bandits. At that time, more than 10,000 bandits in Gebei, Runan, attacked Xu Chu. Xu Chu was outnumbered and exhausted from the battle.  When he ran out of arrows, he ordered both men and women to find big rocks to defend themselves against the enemy. When the enemy soldiers rushed up, Xu Chu flew back and the soldiers did not dare to approach until the food was almost exhausted. Xu Chu pretended to make peace with the thieves.  They exchanged the cattle for food. After the rebels moved the cattle away, they ran back. Xu Chu went to the front of the battle and walked for more than a hundred steps holding the cow's tail. The soldiers were shocked and did not dare to come back to get the cattle. From then on, Xu Chu became famous.  Everyone in the lands of Huai, Ru, Chen, and Liang knows his reputation for bravery. If the Lord can recruit this person, why worry about no one being able to defeat Lu Bu?" Cao Cao was surprised and happy when he heard this, and said with his hands: "There is someone here.  Such a person? Why didn't Zhongde say it earlier? " Cheng Yu said awkwardly: "The most important thing for a person is loyalty and filial piety." Yuan Shao, Tao Qian, Liu Yao, Liu Biao and others all know this.  But he couldn't recruit him. Could it be that the lord didn't know about this? "Cao Cao really didn't know about this person. His hometown was Qiao County, Pei State, but Xu Chu was in Qiao County, Qiao State. They were completely different places.  After thinking for a while, he said: "After Lu Bu is defeated, I will personally visit this brave man. Yuan Shao, Tao Qian and others are all mediocre people! If I go to recruit him in person, this will definitely happen!" Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and others  The corners of his mouth twitched.  I think you, Cao Cao, are too arrogant!  Why can't they be recruited?  Are you so sure?  Looking at the front of the two armies again, Lu Bu and the four men fought together for more than fifty rounds. As their physical strength declined, they gradually fell into a disadvantage.  After all, Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan, Gao Lan, and Li Dian are not big cabbage either.  Hao Meng from behind.  Generals Song Xian and Sun Guansan saw that Lu Bu was at a disadvantage.  After a brief discussion, he clapped his horse and rushed forward. Song Xian shouted: "Bullying the minority with the more, you are shameless. Don't worry, my lord, we will come to help you!" After that, he and Hao Meng went straight to kill Xiahou Dun, but the two of them  They deeply hated Xiahou Dun for killing their good friend Hou Cheng.  Sun Guan faced Li Dian, who was the weakest. Lu Bu fought Xia Houyuan and Gao Lan alone and immediately gained the upper hand.  In such a four-on-four battle, the situation immediately reversed. Song Xian and Hao Meng might not be able to defeat Xiahou Dun alone, but together they could gain the upper hand.  Although Sun Guan was at a disadvantage, it was not easy for Li Dian to win over Sun Guan as soon as possible.  Only Lu Bu had the upper hand, and Gao Lan and Xia Houyuan were surrounded by dangers and were in danger.  Seeing that the situation was not good, Cao Cao suddenly shouted: "Bang the drums, the whole army attacks! Capture Lu Bu alive!" "Promise!" Under the leadership of the two brothers Cao Hong and Cao Chun, the 30,000-strong army immediately launched a charge.  Lu Bu didn't show any weakness here. Although the number of people was nearly half, these were Lu Bu's elite troops. Besides, they fought based on the city and could retreat to Dongping City at any time.  The two armies were fighting in one place, and they were fighting hard. Rivers of blood flowed on the spot, and broken limbs and broken arms were everywhere.  In the chaotic army, Lu Bu rushed from left to right, as if he was in an uninhabited land, driving away Xia Houyuan and Gao Lan, single-handedly rushed out of the battle group, and killed Cao Cao who was watching the battle.  Xia Houyuan and Gao Lan were shocked and rushed to catch up, but how could their horses compare with the red rabbit horse?  Seeing Lu Bu approaching, Cao Cao quickly ordered his soldiers to rush forward and try to stop Lu Bu.  But if Lu Bu was blocked so easily, then he was no longer Lu Bu. He swung away Fang Tian's painted halberd and charged hard, but his speed didn't slow down much, and he reached fifty steps in front of Cao Cao in a few breaths.  Cao Cao was shocked, as were Xiahou Dun, Cao Hong, Gao Lan and others. If Cao Cao was killed by Lu Bu, they would give a shit!  Not caring about fighting at the moment, he turned his horse and charged towards Lu Bu.  When Cao Jun saw his generals retreating, their morale plummeted. Although they had an absolute advantage in numbers, they were defeated steadily by Song Xian, Hao Meng, and Sun Guan, and they were on the verge of defeat.  But it was said that Cao Cao saw that Lu Bu was unstoppable and did not care about Cheng Yu, Xun You and others, so he shouted: "Stop Lu Bu, and whoever cuts off Lu Bu's head will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins!" After that, he turned his horse and left.  Lu Bu looked excited, wielding Fang Tian's painted halberd and killing wildly, while shouting: "Thief Cao, please leave, I will capture you alive today!" The red rabbit horse was galloping like a red streak.With a flash of lightning, he quickly broke out of the encirclement and went straight to kill Cao Thief.  Cao Cao was panic-stricken and frightened. He knew Lu Bu was brave, but he didn't expect him to be so brave. Now he could only try to escape. If he fell into Lu Bu's hands, life would be worse than death.  Fortunately, Lu Bu had a horse, and he was not bad either. He sat on a horse named Claw Huang Feidian.  It has yellow claws, white skin, and four yellow hooves. It has a noble and extraordinary temperament and is arrogant.  Just hearing a name like "Zhao Huang Feidian" seems majestic and unique.  This horse was a gift from the Li family, a prominent family in Yanzhou. Li Qian and his son used their family's wealth to help Cao Cao's rebellion and donated countless amounts of money and food, including this horse, Huang Feidian.  When Cao Cao saw how majestic the horse was, he loved it so much that he would ride it every time he went on an expedition. Now it finally came in handy.  Claw Huang Feidian was no weaker than Red Rabbit Horse in running. He chased and escaped, and quickly ran for more than ten miles. The two of them always kept a distance of about a hundred steps, followed by Cao Hong and Cao Chun.  , Xia Houyuan and other generals, their horses were so different that they were thrown two miles away after ten miles. This is the role of the BMW.  Seeing that it was difficult to capture Cao Cao alive, Lu Bu immediately hung up Fang Tian's painted halberd, took out the dragon's tongue bow, bent the bow and nocked an arrow, and immediately fired a three-arrow volley.  The three feather arrows were shot at Cao Cao's back and horse respectively, with extraordinary force.  At this moment, Cao Cao turned around to look around. When he saw Lu Bu taking out the Dragon Tongue Bow, he was frightened out of his wits.  Finally, he reacted very quickly, and he quickly leaned over and hugged the horse's neck. He clicked the stirrups with both feet, and the yellow lightning in his claws suddenly jumped up to seven or eight feet high, as if he was a psychic.  This leap immediately avoided the fatal point. Two arrows flew under the horse's hooves, and another one hit Cao Cao's left hip.  Cao Cao screamed, blood burst out, and he whipped his horse with his whip. As long as he escaped seven or eight miles and entered the military camp, Lu Bu would not be able to enter the camp even if he was extremely capable.  After this incident, the war horse was frightened and its speed increased sharply, as if it was going crazy.  At the same time, Man Chong, who was stationed at the camp, also led his troops to greet him.  Lu Bu did not dare to go deep alone. Once he was surrounded and shot with random arrows, it would not be easy to escape.  Then he returned to his horse and headed back to the main formation, just in time to meet Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan, Gao Lan, Li Dian and Cao Chun who came to save him.  Behind them came Cao's army like a tidal wave. After Lu Bu's interference, Cao's army, which was expected to win, was actually defeated with a small number and a large number.  After several battles, Lu Bu's strength was greatly damaged. No matter how hard he was to fight against six, he retreated within less than ten seconds of each other. Relying on the advantage of his horse's speed, he quickly passed through Cao's defeated troops and returned to the main formation.  The six generals were worried about Cao Cao's life and had no intention of fighting. They immediately gathered their defeated troops and resisted while retreating. The two armies fought until dusk before they each stopped.  Cao Cao led 40,000 troops. In addition to the auxiliary troops and the thousands of soldiers and horses stationed in the camp, a total of 30,000 Qingzhou troops went into battle. This defeat inevitably caused a sharp drop in morale. The more than 30,000 troops who went into battle actually suffered nearly 8,000 casualties.  You should know that Lu Bu only fought with 10,000 troops and lost less than 2,000 men. The casualty ratio reached 4:1.  After Lu Bu returned home, he held a grand celebration banquet, but Hou Cheng was defeated, and the generals were inevitably sad.  Hou Cheng's martial arts were average, but his brewing skills were top-notch, and all the generals made friends with him.  Lu Bu was also a lover of wine, so he immediately ordered Hou Cheng to be buried with honors.  But Cao Cao was hit by an arrow in his left hip, and the injury was serious. Lu Bu's Dragon's Tongue Bow was incredibly powerful, and his crotch was not protected by a strong armor. The arrow penetrated four inches deep into the flesh. If it hadn't been blocked by the bone, it would have been shot.  It is possible to wear it.  Lying on the couch in the military camp, Cao Cao was filled with hatred. He came full of confidence this time, but he didn't expect that he would be defeated in the first confrontation, and he was almost killed by an arrow. It was simply a shame and humiliation.  Xun Yu and Cheng Yu also escaped with their lives in the chaos. Seeing that Cao Cao was seriously injured this time, they were all sad.  Xun Yu hesitated for a long time, frowned and said: "L¨¹ Bu is brave and formidable, and with the help of Guo Jia and Chen Gong, we may have fallen into a trap this time." Cao Cao also thought of this. With Lu Bu's style, it is impossible to lead only 10,000 troops.  If the two sides have equal strength today, their losses will be more than 8,000.  The whole army may be wiped out.  With an anxious mood, Cao Cao said: "Wen Ruo, what do you mean?"  I'm afraid He Yu Jin's troops have been ambushed" Cao Cao sat up after hearing this. He was very excited and said in anger: "Little Lu Bu, how can you have such an ability to use troops? Could it be that God wants to destroy me?  Cao Mengde?¡±  On the other hand, most of our army was adapted from the elite soldiers who have been on the battlefield. They are more than enough to rob the people, but not enough to fight on the battlefield." (To be continued)
