Since he fell into the water, Lu Bu had suffered from cold and wind. He had been feeling unwell for several days, his head was swollen, his hands and feet were sore, and he could not even sleep well. However, Prime Minister Dong Zhuo ordered the entire army to attack Sun Jian in the south, named him as the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army, and also sent him fine wine and medicine to show his serious attitude. Lu Bu was deeply moved, and after careful consideration, he decided to take over with all his strength.

After his wife Yan learned about it, she took his arm and persuaded him: "On the battlefield, swords and guns are blind. Since you haven't recovered yet, don't fight with force. If you die in battle, will those cool people shed tears for you? The only sad thing is There will only be us mother and daughter." Her words were so emotional that she immediately covered her face with her hands and sobbed.

Lü Bu's daughter was only seven years old. She was also playing around at the time, playing with the wooden table for fun. When she saw her biological mother weeping, she began to cry beside Lü Bu even though she didn't know the reason.

Lu Bu felt upset when he heard this. He opened his wife's catkins and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "A man should be galloping on the battlefield, how can he lie on the bed all day long? Besides, I regard the Prime Minister as my father, and the Prime Minister treats me like a son. Let me lead the army to fight, this is because they value me! And those Liang people have always looked down on me. Although I showed my bravery in the last battle of Shazhou, I was defeated in the end. If I don't fight with all my strength this time, I can still be in the prime minister's country. Are you able to gain a foothold under your command?"

Before leaving, Lu Bu said to Yan, "I'm going to get rich and powerful, and I might even be able to make you a king!" Then he went out with the army. At first he didn't feel much discomfort, but Lu Bu only felt a little weak in his hands and feet. He originally thought that he would be able to calm down after running for a few days, but unexpectedly he bumped into Sun Jian's main force in front of Guangcheng Pass, and a battle was about to begin.

Before the battle, he was discussing the marching formation. Gao Shun, the captain of the camp, saw the cold sweat on his forehead and asked worriedly: "If the general is unwell, why not just sit in the formation." Lu Bu took out his halberd in public and smiled at Gao Shun: "A little little It's just an ailment, it won't be a problem." His halberd weighed a hundred kilograms, but he moved it with one hand and threw it in the air. Then he picked up the bow and arrow, and loosened the string with a "pop" sound. Everyone heard a crisp sound first, Then he saw the iron arrow passing through the small branch of the halberd and hanging the halberd on the beam in the air.

Seeing this, the soldiers were all amazed at Lu Bu's bravery and shooting skills, and shouted "General's power" one after another. Gao Shun also felt relieved and congratulated Lu Bu: "With the general's power, he must have defeated Sun Jian and frightened Liangren. It's just a matter of waiting." Gao Shun was so restrained in his treatment of others, and it turned out that he was also resentful of Liang Shengsheng. Lu Bu was very satisfied after hearing this and rushed to the battlefield as usual.

After Jingqi broke through the front formation, it was Han Dang's troops who broke into Lu Bu's formation first, with Han Dang's son Han Cheng taking the lead.

Han Cheng was just in his prime, yet he was as brave as his father. He led more than a dozen knights to gallop through the crowd. Sometimes he would draw his bow and shoot in the gaps between the crowd, and sometimes he would swing his sword at close range. But he was clearly in the front line, but he only wore leather armor. As a result, the mount ran very fast, and Liang Ren failed to succeed several times while riding and shooting.

Lu Bu was very angry when he saw this. He pointed the tip of his halberd at Han Cheng and said, "How can you not do anything to a child? You are ruining my face, Lu Fengxian!" So he stepped forward to fight in person. He got on the red rabbit horse and rode towards Han Cheng. As he left, Red Rabbit started running, making people look at him on the battlefield. Even though he was wearing a vest, Red Rabbit's tall body was like a galloping boulder, but its speed was unparalleled. By just one look at Lu Bu, others felt like they were being brutally attacked. It hit hard and seemed to want to fly into the sky.

Such an alarming momentum naturally made Han Cheng aware of it. Knowing that he was unable to defeat him, he turned his horse around and entered the Jing formation, intending to use mounted fire to stop Lu Bu. Unexpectedly, when he started to run, he realized that the dark cloud horse under him was far different from the red rabbit. Lu Bu was galloping towards him. No matter how he turned, the distance continued to shorten. Seeing this, the horsemen around him dodge one after another. I don't have the courage to stab him. Lu Bu waited until he was within ten feet of him, then stabbed Han Cheng in the back with his halberd.

Unexpectedly, after the tip of the halberd passed through the leather armor, the feeling suddenly stagnated. Lu Bu quickly realized that this kid had an iron plate wrapped under the leather armor! Before he could sheath his halberd, Han Cheng took out a powerful crossbow from under the saddle. The crossbow was dotted with cold stars. Before Lu Bu could react, he had already fired the crossbow bolt.

At such a close distance, Lu Bu's skirt and armor couldn't stop him. The crossbow arrow passed through the iron piece, then passed through a layer of cowhide, and hit Lu Bu in the crotch. Lü Bu was in pain, but he still held the halberd blade at an angle, hooked Han Cheng's armor, and forced him to dismount. Han Cheng was unable to resist, so two or three halberds were pierced through the chest by Lü Bu, and he soon died.

Lu Bu withdrew his halberd, but was secretly angry in his heart: his reaction was still a little slow. If it were normal, even if he missed the stab, he could still draw the halberd and knock down this man's powerful crossbow. But now he is on the battlefield, and he can't eat it. After shooting this arrow, it will be difficult to do anything in the future. While the Jing people were still afraid to approach, he gritted his teeth and pulled out the crossbow bolt. The robe between his crotch was soaked with blood and was wet. He quickly pulled a long piece of cloth from the corner of his sleeve to wrap it up, and then drove his horse back. In the formation, although he was still running like flying, he lost four points of freedom.

Upon seeing this, the Jing people mustered up their courage and reorganized their troops to attack Lu Bu's troops. Lu Bu, Gao Shunchenglian and others flew into the battle and repelled several waves of Jing people's attacks. Seeing that the knights on the opposite side could not be effective, the Jing people on the opposite side rushed to attack. Let the knights maintain the battle line, and let the infantry from behind form a thick formation. The infantry hold a shield in one hand and a gun in the other, slowly advancing forward like a turtle, using their numerical advantage to compress the space for Liangqi to attack back and forth. .

Liangqi had no choice but to respond with mounted fire, but most of them were blocked by Jing people's wooden posts, so the effect was not good. In return, the Jing people's arrows suddenly flew out like an unexpected shower.

The arrow hit Lu Bu's pocket, neck, shoulders, arms, the bright iron on his chest, the iron face of the war horse, the chest, and the horse's legs. He looked around under the rain of arrows. The knight was shot from the horse, and the war horse He was shot around and jumped around. Many arrows also passed through the gap between the horse's legs, passed through the horse's tail, passed through the rider's armpit, and flew to the target behind.

Jing people archers do not aim at a clear enemy when shooting arrows. They put on the bow string. As long as there is a moving target in front of them, whether it is a man or a horse, they immediately release the arrow. Then they lower their heads and bend down, reach for the quiver on their backs and take out a quiver. At this time, it was just for the people behind to shoot arrows. Therefore, as soon as the first wave of arrows went out, the second wave of arrows came after them. Even their arrows were clashing in the air, as if chasing each other.

The cavalrymen of Lu Bu's tribe were like fallen leaves in a heavy rain, being knocked down with crackling sounds. Many dense arrows gathered together and directly pierced a large hole in the human body. The arrows from behind continued to penetrate the horse's back through this hole, nailing both the man and the horse to the ground.

In this local battlefield, the strength of the two sides reached three to one. After the knights in the front line were dealt with, the infantry in the rear swarmed forward, and the halberds on the horses and the halberds under the horses began to hit each other. , against the stabbing, Liang Ren's war horse had no impact, but became a huge assassination target. Jing people stabbed the horse to death first, and then stepped on the horse's corpse to chase down the fallen knight.

Fortunately, in such a scene, Red Rabbit can still gallop. He straddles between the bloody water and the mountain of corpses, swinging his head and stepping on his hooves to help Lu Bu kill the enemy. However, almost all the four hundred knights he led were wiped out, and Gao Gao was found. Only after falling into the camp smoothly did the almost collapsed front be stabilized again. After fighting for a long time and the wound on his crotch bleeding profusely, Lu Bu's face was as pale as paper.

He stuck his halberd on the ground and called Song Xian, the commander of the cavalry, and said: "The Jing thief beat me with all his strength, and I can hardly survive. You take people to find Zuo Jun for help."

Song Xian hesitated and said: "Captain Hu Zhen has always looked down on us and had many verbal conflicts with our troops. If we go to him for help, I'm afraid we won't get help."

Lu Bu was furious and shouted at him: "The Prime Minister is right behind me! Why shouldn't he save me?! Just tell him that if the Prime Minister is defeated, will he have a good life?!"

Song Xian quickly moved his horse to the north, holding high the flag of the Tiger and Ben Army all the way, rushed into the Left Army, and loudly asked to see Hu Zhen, the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, General Dong Zhonglang. Hu Zhen did not give him a chance to speak, and sent his own soldiers to reply: "We are all fighting on the battlefield. Who doesn't have a hard time? It's better for everyone to live in his own way!" Song Xian had no choice but to hesitate for a moment in Hu Zhen's formation, but he didn't dare to Delaying the military situation, we can only return to the Chinese army to reply to Lu Bu.

On the way back, he saw a hill-like pile of corpses in front of him. The Jing people's long spears could only be stretched out from behind the mountain of corpses, and the Liang people's long spears slapped each other in the air. The blood and water merged into a stream on the grass. Drifting slowly on the river, the white horses that fell to the ground were dyed blood red.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the Jing people's camp, and sand and gravel began to shake on the gradually calm land. The Liang people couldn't help but become pale and suspicious: Do the Jing people still have cavalry that has not moved? Someone from behind the mountain of corpses shouted: "General Polu is here, drag the corpse down quickly and make way for the general!" The Jing people under the mountain of corpses stopped and kept carrying corpses to both sides, trying to clear a path for fighting. path of.

After two moments of moving, the Jing people cleared a slope of the mountain of corpses. Sun Jian did not wait any longer. He immediately rode up to the mountain of corpses and met Lu Bu who was observing the surroundings. Lu Bu did not recognize Sun Jian, and Sun Jian did not recognize Lu Bu. When people saw each other, they subconsciously waved their swords to greet him. Sun Jian had accumulated his strength for a long time, but Lu Bu couldn't resist it at all. Sun Shicheng knocked the knife from his hand, and then knocked off his pocket, leaving a scratch on his face.

Lu Bu immediately retreated on his horse, and the red rabbit descended from the mountain of corpses in two leaps. Sun Jian was surprised when he saw the red rabbit's strength, and then he sincerely praised: "What a handsome BMW! It's a pity that the owner only shows his appearance." Has Lu Bu ever been so insulted in his life? He was extremely embarrassed, his face flushed as red as fire, and blood burst out and trickled along the wounds on his face. However, he knew that he was exhausted and could never defeat Sun Jian, so he immediately drove around with a red rabbit.

Sun Jian laughed when he saw this, but then he looked solemn because Kongtong Mountain was right in front of him.

He stayed where he was for a while, and after his followers gathered behind him, he finally said to them: "Follow me up the mountain, plunder the formation for me, kill the national traitors, and win a complete victory. This is it." !”
