Under the gaze of everyone, Duke suppressed his slightly distorted expression due to shock, but Li Ru still saw it and thought: Could it be that Ziqing knows this person?
However, he didn't show his face and didn't ask any further questions. He silently controlled the string and came to Hangu Pass.
On top of the building, the first thing Lu Li noticed was not Guo Bang, nor the most exaggerated figure Niu Fu, but Duke!
The two eyes met.
Damn it, you really got the wrong person. Didn’t you want to surrender to Cao Mengde? Why did you appear here? Did you do it alone?
Damn thief, look at your thick eyebrows, big eyes, and loyal face. Before the exam, you decided to follow the unparalleled benevolent and righteous Uncle Liu Huang. We met for a drink at Hulao Pass, but you ended up hanging out with Dong Dong. This contrast... If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. , can’t believe it!
Fortunately, both of them had seen the big world and didn't make too much noise. Only the people around them noticed something was wrong.
The elusive Xun Yu suddenly appeared next to him, with a hint of probing in his tone: "General Lu, do you know this person?"
"good."
All the Confucian scholars had incomprehensible methods, especially Xun Yu. In just a few days, Lu Li still didn't understand how many trump cards he had yet to use, so he simply said frankly: "We were old friends, but we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Zhang Yang nodded, without any doubts in his heart. If Lu Li wanted to surrender to the enemy, why wait until now? In addition, Lu Li is Ding Gong's son-in-law. As long as he protects the young emperor, what will he get after Ding Gong enters the court?
And Zhao Yun did not become suspicious because the two had known each other for a long time and knew what kind of person he was.
Close.
A line of sight was also locked on Duke. There was no way, even though the two men quickly restrained the abnormality on their faces, Li Ru still noticed it.
However, he also had no doubts. As for the reason, there was no need to go into details——
As the son-in-law of Dong Hou, his loyalty is evident.
"Does Ziqing know this Taiyuan Lu Mengming?"
"Well, the guard captain's name is Lu Li. He and I were old friends."
Compared to the reckless Hu Zhen, Guo Si was more cautious, or perhaps more afraid of death, so he couldn't help but ask: "In this case, can we persuade you to surrender? Waging war rashly will harm peace. Speaking of which, we are all officials of the Han family... "
"Disaster."
Before he could finish speaking, Duke interrupted and said, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, and now they all have their own masters. I'm afraid it will be difficult to even meet them."
Not far away, Niu Fu pointed at the gate tower with his whip and said: "He is not the only general who came to guard the gate. Even if Ziqing intends to persuade him to surrender, it is nothing more than a dream."
"So everything depends on General Guo."
Duke felt complicated in his heart. After saying this, he took the initiative to lead his troops to retreat not far away.
Damn it, why are you kidding me?
Stage a scene where brothers turn against each other?
Not realistic!
Betrayal?
It’s not realistic either!
Guo Si was domineering by nature. When he was a horse bandit in Liangzhou in his early years, he liked to show off his power, curse and provoke. He was very good at doing such things. However, Hu Zhen's death still made him think more carefully and leave a trace behind his mouth. He just kept opening his mouth to invite fights.
In the original work, Hua Xiong is an arrogant man with a height of nine feet. Although the man in front of him is tall and tall, he is only slightly taller than Zhao Yun, more than eight feet tall.
However, Lu Li still decided to accept the challenge, quickly walked down the Guanlou, and said loudly: "Why don't you dare, come and fight!"
Then, the door opened.
Horses are the foundation of military armor and are of great use to the country.
This time when he went to battle, Lu Li put away his frivolous heart. He wore a black cape, a hundred-refined armor, and held a carefully crafted iron horse halberd. In addition, the black-maned horse also wore a horse gifted by the Young Emperor. Armor, greatly increased defense.
Seeing this, Guo Bang did not dare to be too bold, and directly released his fighting spirit, charging towards him with his gun drawn: "Little thief, watch your moves!"
Wolf?
Lu Li narrowed his eyes, Dong Zhuo finally sent out a powerful general in the army, and the vision behind him solidified into reality, and was quite strange.
It was a strange-looking white wolf. Its forelimbs were short and curled, but its hind limbs were extremely thick. There were tufts of long, erected hair on both ears.
Xun Yu, who had read a lot of books, had a more reliable guess in his mind: greedy and embarrassed.
[The wolf has no front legs. Yiyun has short front legs and cannot move on its own. It walks on the back of a wolf, just like a jellyfish with a shrimp]
This beast was first recorded in the "Shen Yi Jing" of the Early Han Dynasty, written by the strange man Dongfang Shuo.
But Lu Li couldn't care about that at the moment. The opponent would attack with a big move, so he didn't dare to hold back.
I saw the cyan wolf looking up to the sky and roaring, with an overwhelming momentum. Especially after seeing Greedy behind Guo Bang, his eyes narrowed in a humane way.
"The thief is beheaded!"
Lu Li's expression was solemn, and the almost violent power surged inside his body and poured into the iron horse halberd.
In the previous battle against Hu Zhen, he used skills, but this time, it was also a fusion of skills and power.
"Kill!" A trace of fear flashed in Guo Bang's eyes. He was indeed a person to be feared. This blow actually made him avoid his sharp edge after having been in Xiliang for many years.
But, you can’t retreat!
"clang!"
There was a loud explosion, the halberd blade collided with the big gun, and the cavalrymen who were slightly closer were killed on the spot.
You know, they are the Flying Bear Army, all of them can drive tigers across streams, and their physical fitness is far superior to ordinary people. However, just because they were watching the battle, they got a little closer, so they died on the spot for no reason.
"You are very good." The dust rose, and in a huge pit half a foot deep, Guo Bang sat firmly on the divine horse, staring at Lu Li opposite him, and said in a deep voice: "Hu Zhen died unjustly! Dong! Hou Xicai, if you are willing to join us, I can recommend you to you!"
After receiving a move, you will know the opponent's strength.
"When the time comes, the official position..." Guo Bang wanted to give up, glanced at the dragon-like black-maned horse under Lu Li's crotch, and said: "Beauties, rare treasures, as long as Dong Hou has them, I will accept them. "
What does Dong Zhuo have?
In the original work, in order to win over Lu Bu, he gave up a red rabbit horse, a thousand taels of gold, dozens of pearls, a jade belt, and a Diao Chan...
I seem to have remembered the last item incorrectly. The most beautiful woman in the Three Kingdoms should still be a dancer in Situ Wang Yun's mansion.
"Dong Hou is famous all over the world and holds a high position. I have always heard that the treasures in his palace are not much worse than the emperor's internal treasure." Lu Li secretly praised him, and then said: "Unfortunately, this captain is the son-in-law of Ding Gong. The young emperor and the empress dowager appointed the general of Hangu Pass."
Ding Yuan!
Guo Bang's face turned cold, and he thought something bad was going on. He had never thought that the captain guarding Hangu Pass had a close relationship with the governor of Bingzhou. At this moment, the wolf cavalry was on the way -
Although Dong Hou destroyed all the ferries, bridges, and ships along the way, this only slowed down the opponent's progress. At the latest the day after tomorrow, Ding Yuan could lead his troops to Hangu Pass from Hanoi.
There are defenders in front and wolf cavalry behind. They are attacking from both sides, as well as the rebels from various counties who do not know whether they are real or fake. If they cannot clear the border quickly in the near future, the plan to go south to control the government will be digging their own graves!
Thinking of this, Guo Si no longer hesitated and took the initiative to fight Lu Li on horseback. Looking at the posture, it seemed that he had given up his previous unrealistic idea.
The confrontation between the two was like a violent storm, and the scene was even more shocking than the previous one. Whether it was the guards or the cavalry, they could not open their eyes under the strong wind.
A Xiliang cavalryman with frightened eyes was hit in the head by a stone flying from the battlefield because he was unable to dodge.
"retreat."
"Take another hundred steps back."
Niu Fu gave orders while his eyes were fixed on the billowing dust in front of him.
Countless pieces of armor cracked and spattered, and the divine spear forged by smelting the powder of the Outer God Stone exploded with countless sparks.
Before you know it, fifty years have passed.
Guo Bang's physical strength was gradually exhausted. Every time the horse halberd was pressed down, a large piece of flesh and blood would be taken away from his body. He was like a desperate trapped beast, constantly passively parrying and losing the opportunity.
However, Guo Bang, who had aroused the murderous intention in his heart, gritted his teeth and persisted, but the bloodthirsty flash in his eyes told everyone that he was waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.
This scene naturally fell into Lu Li's eyes. At the moment, he was fighting at full strength. Even if he didn't fight desperately, he still used 100% of his strength. His heavy breathing was like a bellows, short and powerful.
This battle will be difficult to win for a long time.
When he was distracted for a moment, Guo Bang suddenly looked up to the sky and roared, with veins sprouting from his neck. The same was true for the strange beast behind him, letting out a low and mournful howl, like a wolf and a fox.
Lu Li didn't dare to be careless, so he clamped the black-maned horse with his legs a little harder, and borrowed the strength from the divine horse. The falling iron horse's halberd seemed to come alive. The azure color shot out, and the light instantly pierced the night.
In the distance, Dong Zhuo, who was on a high platform looking at Hangu Pass, narrowed his eyes slightly and clenched the hand holding the handle of the knife unconsciously.
The strong wind came towards him, making Guo Bang feel a little difficult to breathe, and his blood was also rising sharply.
At this moment, he was so worried about his life that he had already forgotten the idea of retreating. He raised the big black gun and brought it to his armpit, not blocking the counterattack.
"Uh-huh!"
With a flash of cold light, all kinds of strange phenomena exploded and caused waves. The halberd in Lu Li's hand suddenly changed its direction, slid down the body of the gun, and directly chopped off the enemy general's hands.
In the midst of lightning and flint, Guo Bang's left hand holding the gun slid back. He fiddled with it with his right hand and immediately let go of his hand. The gun rotated around the body of the halberd, and he grabbed it with both hands again. He had done this action many times before, and it was very special. So skillful.
Ji Feng once again fell into place.
"clang!"
A violent tremor came, making Guo Bang's mouth numb, and his whole arm couldn't help but tremble.
"die!"
Immediately afterwards, Lu Li knew how difficult this battle would be, so he didn't hold back at all. He roared and raised his iron horse halberd again. At that moment, the desire to kill filled his heart.
In the dark, he felt that he could split everything. After all, his momentum had reached its peak. Lu Bu and Zhang Liao had both taught this technique carefully, but it was only before he left Bingzhou that Lu Li could master it.
"I didn't expect it would be used on you for the first time, Guo Bang, a famous general in Xiliang."
Unfortunately, no one paid attention to what Lu Li was whispering. Zhang Yang, Xun Yu and even Duke, who was thinking about what to do, held their breaths and looked at an exaggerated cyan light blade.
Shocking and full of oppression!
It pressed through the sand and dust and pushed forward slowly. If Guo Bang hadn't held his spear in front of him and tried to resist it, it would have flown far away out of sight.
However, even so, the light blade still left a bottomless mark on the earth.
"spread!"
"Everyone get out of here!"
Niu Fu suddenly came back to his senses. He ignored the exclamation and immediately ordered the nearby heavy riders to leave.
The soldiers who originally felt that death was imminent came to their senses in twos and threes. They knew that General Guo Si could not hold on for long, and they turned into birds and beasts one after another.
In an instant, the battle formation that was originally interconnected collapsed, and everyone was like a widow.
"Lost again."
At the camp gate, Dong Zhuo murmured to himself, but his expression was surprisingly calm, "Whose general is this Taiyuan Lu Mengming? I thought that my Xiliang cavalry was invincible in the world, and all the generals under my command were capable of taking charge of the world on their own, but he was actually even more brave. .”
Behind him, the two personal guards were shivering and shivering, and couldn't help but retreat back, as if they were in the center of the scene, facing the figure that looked like a demon.
"Cough cough cough."
The light blade that advanced nearly two hundred steps was finally wiped out by Guo Si. The smoke dispersed and he collapsed on the ground. Drops of blood dripped down the barrel of the gun. The alien beasts behind him were also annihilated along with the light blade. His whole body was extremely embarrassed. , like a blood gourd.
I saw blood arrows rushing out from Guo Bang's seven orifices, dripping on the ground and weapons. In the middle of his breath, he actually lost the strength to sit up and fell to the ground with a plop.
"Wan Sheng!"
"Wan Sheng!"
Shouts erupted from the sky above Hangu Pass.
The second team won.
Lu Li lives up to expectations. Dong Zhuo will not make any big moves tonight. He needs to boost morale and stabilize the morale of the army.
The initiative was temporarily in Lu Li's hands. With the grain obtained from Mianchi County and the inventory in the granary in the pass, the guards could completely keep up with the Xiliang army.
But Dong Zhuo's army of more than ten thousand is in trouble. Even if he braves the disapproval of the world, plunders Mianchi and Xin'an, and loots food and wages, he can persist here for two days at most, and then he will have to retreat to the north bank of the Yellow River, because two days The county land simply cannot support so many people.
Luoyang, Xiyuan.
Hundreds of corpses were piled up, some belonging to the Dian Military Academy, and some to the Central Military Academy, Right Military Academy, and Left Military Academy.
Chunyu Qiong and Xia Mou reined in their horses. Now at the edge of the battlefield, they held the horses' belly between their legs and stood up to watch.
At a glance, I saw an extremely brave rider in the chaotic camp. He was not wearing a hood or protective gear. He was riding a strange beast. It was shaped like a horse. Its white mane was fluttering in the wind, but its texture was like that of a tiger. Its red tail was like a tiger. The blood is even brighter, and wherever it gallops, it is like a strong wind destroying the forest, shattering both men and horses.
Dozens of primary school students tried to rush over to stop him, but before they could get close, they were kicked over by horses' hooves or chopped into two pieces by Bailianhuan's first sword.
Chunyu Qiong's expression was very bad, and her voice was very low, as if she was stating the facts: "Even if there are thousands of warriors, they can't stop this person."
Xia Mou did not answer, but his eyes were always on Pan Ming, who was charging among the crowd, without moving an inch: no matter how he changed his formation, the opponent could break through the siege and disrupt the situation. Under his leadership, the soldiers of the Dian Military Academy Headquarters went again. He advanced dozens of steps forward.
"People like Cao Cao have decided to rebel. Do we really want to follow the path of the Yuan family in Runan and go to hell?"
"Retreat the army. With such a fierce general here, there is no way we can stop them."
"It is said that Yuan Shao used the names of the late general He Jin and his uncle Yuan Wei to recruit heroes from all over the country to come to Beijing to kill ten regular servants."
"The same applies to the Queen Mother and the Young Emperor. They just want to attack Buchen."
During the conversation, Pan Ming, who was covered in blood, rushed out of the camp gate first, followed by the soldiers gradually following him.
"These days, holding military power is more powerful than anything else. Withdraw! Just wait and see what happens." Chunyu Qiong made the final decision.
