On the way back to Xiapi with his army, Lu Bu received a military report from Song Xian. Most of the Pei Kingdom had been captured, including Qiao County. The only bad news was that Hou Cheng was injured and was killed by Xu Chu. Injured.
Seeing this, Lu Bu's heart sank. He had warned him beforehand, but it still happened. After reading the reason, Lu Bu suddenly wanted to curse.
It turned out that Song Xian and Hou Cheng saw that Lu Bu valued Xu Chu very much, and the two of them never thought about touching Xu Chuazhuang, but Hou Cheng actually wanted to test Xu Chu's martial arts, but Xu Chu knocked him down after two moves.
Lu Bu didn't know what to say now. He really didn't know where Hou Cheng got the courage to go to Xu Chu for a duel. However, looking at what Song Xian said in his heart, it was all for Lu Bu's sake that he would try. After trying it, Lu Bu couldn't say stupid words for a while.
After sighing, Lu Bu immediately called for Le Jin.
"Wen Qian, please get ready. Later, you will lead the Wolf Cavalry with me. Song Xian and the others captured Pei State. Hou Cheng was injured in Qiao County. This time we are going to Yuzhou, and I want you to lead the army."
Now that he had Le Jin, Lu Bu had someone he could rely on to handle Yuzhou affairs. At that time, there was no way to use Song Xian and Hou Cheng.
There was no way Lu Bu could do this. If he was not in a hurry to capture Yuzhou and there were many troops at his command, how could he give Song Xian and the others a chance to perform? But now time waits for no one, and with better Le Jin, he had no choice but to start making arrangements directly. .
When Le Jin heard Lu Bu's words, he was also stunned. In the current situation, Xuzhou is still using troops against Yuzhou? He didn't know for a moment whether Lu Bu was a brave man or because he disliked him for living too long.
Then he admired Lu Bu a little. This was how much confidence he had in himself. He could believe that he could withstand the pressure from Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, and Liu Bei at the same time and still open up new businesses.
Le Jin responded quickly.
"Come in and follow your lord's orders."
After seeing Le Jin's agreement, Lu Bu arranged the army again, and then brought the wolf cavalry and headed straight for Qiao County.
After nearly two days, after Lu Bu arrived in Qiao County, Song Xian and Hou Chengcheng were already outside the camp to welcome Lu Bu's arrival.
"Lord."
Lu Bu immediately came to the two of them and looked at Hou Cheng.
"How's it going? Looking at you like this, your injury is almost healed, right? I was worried all along the way. I hope it's okay now."
Seeing Hou Cheng who was full of energy, Lu Bu felt completely relieved. He was really worried that Hou Cheng would have some shortcomings. After all, the martial arts skills of the tiger fool Xu Chu were not just talk.
The generals he has now can no longer withstand losses. Although the abilities of Hou Cheng and others are not as good as those famous generals, they are not bad, and they are better than most people, especially It was the learning of the following people, and Lu Bu saw it in his eyes.
Hou Cheng looked at Lu Bu who was full of concern, grinned immediately, and patted his chest.
"Lord, don't worry. Nothing will happen to the general. Xu Chu has already kept his hand this time. Otherwise, I'm afraid the general will be beaten to the point of being unable to get out of bed with just two moves.
I will make my own decision at the end, so I ask my lord to punish me. "
Hou Cheng has finally seen what it means to be brave, and he also knows why Lu Bu values Xu Chu so much. In Hou Cheng's view, except for Lu Bu, Xu Chu's martial arts skills are probably inferior to those of the others.
Lu Bu helped Hou Cheng up, looked at the two of them and spoke.
"Okay, it's good to know that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky. When encountering enemies in the future, you must not take it lightly and must be fully prepared.
Now tell me, what happened to Xujiazhuang? What do they want? "
When Lu Bu said this, Song Xian suddenly spoke angrily.
"My lord, the Xu family is so ignorant that they asked the lord to talk to them in person. Xu Chu is even more shameless and wants to break up with the lord.
My Lord, as a general, I will send troops directly to capture these people to see if they will obey. "
Lu Bu's face darkened when he heard Song Xian's words. At this moment, he suddenly realized that these people below seemed to have no brains. They perfectly fit the saying: If you can use your hands, you will never use your mouth or brain.
"What are you talking about? The purpose of my coming here is for this Xu Chu. Since they want to talk to me and fight with me, then why not satisfy them.
There's no need to wait while the weather is still good. Let's go now. Song Xian and Hou Cheng, you two will take me there now. "
Song Xian and Hou Cheng had no choice but to take Lu Bu to Xujiazhuang. After obtaining Lu Bu's consent, Song Xian immediately went forward and came to Wubao in Xujiazhuang.
No one in Xujiazhuang fired arrows. It can be said that the two groups of people are already familiar with each other. In addition, no one on either side thought about fighting.
After Song Xian arrived, he took a deep breath and shouted loudly.
"Xu Chu, now my lord Lu Bu has arrived, why don't you come out quickly!"
After Song Xian finished speaking, he went straight back to Lu Bu. After a while, the door below slowly opened, and a man ran out with a big sword.
"This is Xu Chu and Xu Zhongkang, and you are Lu Bu?"
After Xu Chu arrived, his eyes were directly fixed on Lu Bu. Although he had never met Lu Bu, his intuition told him that this very dangerous person was undoubtedly Lu Bu.
This time Lu Bu suddenly sent troops to enter, and Xu Chu had discussions with the clan elders inside. In the end, the Xu family all looked at Xu Chu's own choice. In the eyes of those clan elders, Xu Chu was the future of the Xu family. If Xu Chu didn't want to, They won't force it either.
Xu Chu himself can't say that he has any good impression of Lu Bu, but he can't say that he has any dislike. After all, it has nothing to do with him, but Lu Bu's martial arts is something he has always wanted to try against Lu Bu in person.
Lu Bu looked at Xu Chu and listened to Xu Chu's words. The red rabbit took three steps forward and came to Xu Chu.
"That is Lu Bu, Lu Fengxian!
Don’t you want to compete with me? Now, here I am. "
Xu Chu suddenly smiled when he heard this.
"Okay, let's have a live competition today. I wonder if Wen Hou dares?"
Lu Bu also laughed sincerely when he heard Xu Chu's address. He called him Wen Hou, which showed that he was not totally without a chance.
"Haha, Zhong Kang is the first person to ask me if Lu Fengxian dares, so let's start."
After Lu Bu finished speaking, the two of them immediately got ready. Xu Chu took the lead to attack Lu Bu. After resisting a few attacks, Lu Bu had some confidence in Xu Chu's martial arts, and then gradually began to switch from defense to offense. Xu Chu's pressure was gradually increasing. big.
Le Jin and Song Xian looked at Lu Bu and Xu Chu who were fighting more and more fiercely. They couldn't bear to look away for a moment and watched intently. However, as time passed, the two of them had already exchanged hundreds of moves. Lu Bu's The speed is getting faster and faster.
In the duel between the two, to be precise, Lu Bu did not use his full strength. After all, this was just a competition, not for killing. Moreover, he lacked anger and did not feel the burning of his body. The martial arts he displayed was indeed better than before. Not as good as that.
