Neither Guan nor Zhang expected that Lu Bu would retreat suddenly. For a moment, they were completely unprepared and had no time to stop him.
Liu Bei, who was outside the battle circle, saw Lu Bu's intention and thought that Lu Bu's physical strength had almost reached its limit. He immediately no longer hesitated and directly rode his horse to intercept with two swords.
Lu Bu did not expect that Liu Bei would have the courage to face him directly. He was frightened when he saw Liu Bei coming up. He then sneered and struck Liu Bei with all his strength with a halberd. Guan Zhang was afraid that Liu Bei would be wrong and rushed to help at full speed.
When Liu Bei saw Lu Bu's attack, he quickly crossed his swords and blocked it with all his strength. Liu Bei would have been unable to block Lu Bu's halberd at ordinary times, but at this time, Lu Bu's physical strength was greatly reduced. Liu Bei tried his best and actually blocked it, but also Even the war horse was overwhelmed by Lu Bu's huge strength.
Lu Bu couldn't help but be startled when he saw this, but even in this neutral position, Guan Zhang had already attacked.
Guan Yu struck up and knocked Fang Tian's painted halberd away, while Zhang Fei shouted loudly and pulled Liu Bei's mount up.
Liu Bei, who was out of danger, knew that Lu Bu was about to run out of gas, so he did not withdraw after the interception was successful. Instead, he united with his two brothers to surround Lu Bu, and the three of them fought together like a revolving lantern.
Lu Bu knew that he was not physically strong enough to fight again, so while defending Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's attacks, he kept attacking Liu Bei. Liu Bei was forced into panic by Lu Bu, and he had to rely on Guan and Zhang's rescue several times to escape. Overcome danger.
Obviously, although Liu Bei's intention to intercept Lu Bu was successful, his addition not only did not help Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but they had to pay more attention to Liu Bei.
The four of them fought for several rounds. Although Liu Bei was dragging him down, which relieved a lot of pressure on Lu Bu, Lu Bu had already fought several games in a row and was already panting. He could only grit his teeth to resist the attacks of Guan and Zhang.
Lu Bu knew that he could not defeat the three of them today, so he immediately took advantage of Liu Bei's unprepared halberd and stabbed him directly in the face. Liu Bei did not have time to defend himself. Fortunately, Guan and Zhang were already on guard. They came out with their swords and spears and killed Lu Bu's Fang Tianhua halberd. Hold on.
Seeing this, Lu Bu knew it was a good opportunity. He immediately reined in the red rabbit horse, turned the horse's head and ran back to his own army.
"Thieves, please leave."
Upon seeing this, Zhang Fei immediately prepared to pursue him, but was stopped by Liu Bei.
"Okay, don't chase after the poor enemy. Besides, Yun Chang is almost reaching his limit."
Liu Bei patted Guan Yu on the back and asked with concern: "Second brother, are you okay?"
Zhang Fei was stunned when he saw this. He turned around and saw that Guan Yu's momentum dropped sharply, and his face turned red to white. Only then did he realize that Guan Yu, who had exerted the most strength, had reached his limit.
"Second brother..."
Guan Yu let out a long breath and said with a faint smile: "It's okay, it's just that the fight took a long time this time and the consumption was a bit high."
[Ding dong, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei achieved the achievement of "Three Heroes Fight Lu Bu" and received the following rewards:
Liu Bei's five dimensions are all permanently +1. Force will permanently increase by 2. The current five dimensions are: 89 commander, 88 force, 90 intelligence, 96 politics, and 99 charm.
Guan Yu's military force is permanently +1, and the current basic military force is 104.
Zhang Fei's force is permanently +1, and his current base force is 103. 】
The main battle was obviously between Guan and Zhang, and Liu Bei was playing tricks almost the whole time, but in the end it was Liu Bei who received the most rewards, which shows that the boss is the boss after all.
Of course, it may also be because Liu Bei has the worst attributes, but this time he got the biggest reward as a blessing in disguise.
Although Lu Bu was defeated in this battle, he killed more than ten generals in a row. After fighting Gongsun Zan and other seven generals alone, he also singled out Liu Guan and Zhang Sanying. His reputation for invincibility spread like wildfire.
As Lu Bu's reputation rose, so did Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei. After all, the three of them worked together to force Lu Bu back.
The same was true for Pei Yuanqing and Xiong Kuohai who fought against Lu Bu. They were slightly better than Liu Guan and Zhang. After all, Pei Yuanqing and Xiong Kuohai completely suppressed Lu Bu.
In this battle, any general who fought against Lu Bu and survived had his reputation greatly increased.
After Lu Bu withdrew, he saw how fierce the coalition's offensive was. He knew that the army would be defeated sooner or later, so he withdrew to the place discussed with Hou Yi in advance.
After Hou Yi shot Liu Yu to death, he no longer dared to confront the coalition forces head-on. Instead, he hid in the army and grew up. The generals of the coalition forces spread out and searched, but they could not find Hou Yi's location.
On the other side, after Qin Hao's weapon skill advanced to the 'Ji Shen', he was full of fighting spirit. He no longer just showed off, but personally participated in leading the charge.
Qin Hao's actions of taking the lead also infected other princes. At this time, the situation of the war had become clear, and other princes headed by Cao Cao could no longer hold back.
"Everyone, the leader of the alliance is taking the lead, so why should we regret this?"
Cao Cao pulled out the green sword from his waist, pointed to the sky and shouted: "Cao Mengde is here, kill..."
Under the protection of Cao Ren, Cao Hong and other generals, Cao Cao personally joined the battle with a sword, and under his instigation, several princes also rushed out.
Seeing this, all the princes could not help but look helpless. Under the general situation, they could only go out to fight in person to boost morale. Only old men like Tao Qian and Kong Rong did not go out to fight.
Although the alliance leader Qin Hao went to fight before, which greatly encouraged the coalition forces, Qin Hao was not their lord after all. Now that even his own lord has gone to fight in person, how can they, the soldiers, fight to the death?
The participation of a large number of princes in the battle directly detonated the morale of the coalition forces, and in terms of momentum, the coalition forces finally crushed the Liang army.
At this time, the coalition forces had taken full advantage of their strength. Coupled with the surge in morale bonus, the Liang army guarding the intersection had numerous casualties. If this trend continued, they would soon be killed even if they were not defeated.
After seeing this scene, Hou Yi, who was hiding in the army, felt extremely bitter in his heart.
Defeated, ultimately defeated completely.
Hou Yi never thought that he could stop Qin Hao's winning streak. After all, that was something that even Li Shimin had not accomplished, but he did not expect to lose so completely.
All the previous actions of the fighting generals were to boost morale in the hope that the army could last longer in the decisive battle. However, the army was still crushed by the enemy's superior force. On the contrary, it was the fighting generals of Lu Bu and Hou Yi that delayed the battle longer. I don’t know if time is worth the loss.
What Liu Bei said before was indeed correct. These 8,000 Liang troops were Li Shimin's abandoned sons. Therefore, even though Hou Yi knew that this battle was bound to be defeated, he still did not issue an order to retreat.
Although the soldiers were abandoned sons, Hou Yi and Lu Bu were not. They would not be buried with the soldiers.
Just when Hou Yi was about to run away, Qin Hao, who was leading the charge indiscriminately, happened to kill in the direction of Hou Yi. The moment the two sides met, their expressions were so wonderful.
