Lu Bu's calculation was very shrewd. When he saw that there were not many people under Cao Cao's command, and they were all picking up corpses, he thought of killing him.
Of course he knew about the large forces in Xingyang City, but this did not prevent him from making a quick decision and taking advantage and running away.
The soldiers under his command are all elites from Bingzhou, veterans of hundreds of battles in all directions, and they are all cavalry. Lu Bu was confident that the battle would end before the enemy's large force arrived, and he did not even delay running away.
Therefore, Lu Bu decisively ordered the charge.
The first person to bear the brunt was Cao Cao himself.
Of course Lu Bu didn't know Cao Cao, but this fat, dark and short man was clearly the leader of the enemy army. As long as he could kill this man, the enemy army would definitely be in chaos.
What we Bingzhou men value is to rush into battle and move forward indomitably.
"Anyone who stands in my way will die!"
Lu Bu shouted coldly and rushed to the front of the army, Fang Tian's painted halberd moving accordingly.
With this movement, the long-handled weapon that weighed dozens of kilograms almost danced out of its afterimage, and even a faint afterimage appeared in the fierce wind, heading straight for Cao Cao under the banner.
"Hold on, don't mess up, reinforcements will arrive soon!"
Cao Cao frowned and shouted, but there was no trace of fear in his eyes.
The soldiers under his command hurriedly formed their formations, so it was naturally impossible to withstand the enemy's surprise attack.
It's just that Cao Cao had no intention of defeating Lu Bu, he just wanted to delay him.
After all, there are Liu Bei's troops all around, and the generals will arrive after hearing the news in less than half an hour at most.
At that time, this enemy force will become a turtle in the urn.
Hum, you dare to treat me, Cao Mengde, as a soft persimmon, you really don’t know what to say!
But soon, Cao Cao discovered something was wrong.
This guy Lu Bu is so fierce!
The defense line he had set up in front of him was like paper.
Under the high-speed charge of Red Rabbit Horse, Lu Bu was like a harvester of human heads. With just one look, he knocked away the shield-holding soldier at the front.
Immediately afterwards, Fang Tian's painted halberd in Lu Bu's hand was swept across. The soldiers in the second row were also swept away with their shields. Most of them had lost their breath in mid-air. Afterwards, those who were smashed to the ground were just Just a corpse.
This open and close style of play is like ghosts and gods coming to the world, it is terrifying!
In just a few breaths, the area within a foot in front of Lu Bu became an open space, and the other soldiers no longer dared to step forward to die.
The generals under his command had long been accustomed to Lu Bu's bravery, and they all took advantage of this gap to attack, instantly tearing open Cao Cao's first line of defense.
"waste!"
Looking at Cao Cao's soldiers whose eyes were full of fear, Lu Bu showed a trace of disdain on his lips, and he didn't even bother to harvest them.
Then, Lu Bu looked up and saw Cao Cao under the banner of the Chinese army.
"The thief will die!"
Lu Bu shouted loudly, and the red rabbit horse under his crotch launched a charge again, charging towards the Chinese army.
On the other hand, Cao Cao's brows had already furrowed into the character "Chuan".
He thought that the defense line could stop the enemy's advance, but Lu Bu's ferocity exceeded his expectation.
If the fight continues like this, before the reinforcements arrive, this person may have already broken out of his own army.
But soon Cao Cao had no time to worry.
Because the speed of Lu Bu's advance exceeded Cao Cao's expectations. Wherever he went, there was no enemy at all. The armor on his body was already stained with the blood of Cao Cao's soldiers, and Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand did not know how many lives he had harvested.
"The thief will stop being so rampant, I will fight you!"
A loud shout sounded from behind Cao Cao. It turned out that it was Xia Houyuan who saw that Lu Bu was invincible and was worried that he would kill him through the army, so he took the initiative to greet him with a sword.
Cao Cao hurriedly warned loudly: "You are a talented person, be careful, this thief is brave and invincible!"
"Brother, don't worry, watch me kill this person!"
Xia Houyuan responded without looking back, but he had already rushed into the rebel army. After a while, he arrived at the front army and encountered Lu Bu who was massacring the soldiers.
"The thief will watch the knife!"
Xia Houyuan used all his strength and slashed down at Lu Bu with the sword in his hand.
"snort."
Lu Bu just snorted coldly, not even bothering to look at Xia Houyuan. He just raised his halberd and easily blocked Xia Houyuan's full-strength sword strike.
On the other hand, Xia Houyuan's hands were numb from the force of the counterattack, and his eyes could not help but be filled with horror.
This thief's strength... is too great!
Although Xia Houyuan was shocked, Lu Bu would not give him a chance to react. After blocking the sword, he followed the trend with a sweeping move and cut Xia Houyuan in half at the waist.
not good!
Xia Houyuan's heart suddenly trembled, and he quickly waved his sword to resist, regardless of the soreness and numbness in his hands.
Keng!
There was a sound of gold and stone, and a burst of sparks appeared where the two men's swords collided.
After one blow, a gap appeared on Xia Houyuan's sword, and the crack spread to the bottom of the blade.
Lu Bu suppressed Xia Houyuan with his halberd, and sneered: "Who are you? Tell me your name quickly. I, Lu Feng, will not kill unknown people."
Xia Houyuan had already used all his strength, but he could only resist, but refused to admit defeat.
"You...don't deserve to know my name!"
"Just don't tell me. There's no need to leave a name for someone like you."
Lu Bu said coldly, suddenly raised his halberd high, shouted loudly, and slashed it down at Xia Houyuan.
This blow is extremely powerful!
Xia Houyuan didn't care to take a breath and quickly raised his sword to meet him.
boom!
At this moment, the long knife in Xia Houyuan's hand was broken.
Thanks to his quick eyesight and quick hands, he hurriedly leaned back and managed to avoid Lu Bu's fatal blow.
However, the horse under his crotch was not so lucky. After Fang Tian cut off Xia Houyuan's weapon with his halberd, his power was not diminished. He continued to cut down, and finally struck the horse's head hard.
Poor horse, it didn't even have time to scream, its head was chopped into pieces by Lu Bu.
When the brains of the war horse burst out, Xia Houyuan also rolled off the horse.
With his horse dead and no weapon in his hand, Xia Houyuan was completely in a desperate situation.
"Thief, suffer death!"
Lu Bu laughed wildly and struck down with another halberd, about to send Xia Houyuan away.
At the critical moment, a spear suddenly flew from a distance and shot directly at Lu Bu's face.
Lu Bu frowned slightly, and had no choice but to let go of Xia Houyuan, and swung his halberd to knock the incoming spear to the ground.
"Wonderful talent, retreat quickly!"
Xiahou Dun's urgent voice came from behind. He had just given up his weapon and saved Xiahou Yuan's life.
Xiahou Yuan hurriedly turned around and saw his brother Xiahou Dun and Cao Hong rushing towards them on flying horses.
"Brother!"
"Retreat quickly, Zi Lian and I will fight him!"
Xiahou Dun shouted loudly, and when his horse passed Xiahou Yuan, he easily pulled out the spear standing on the ground and rushed towards Lu Bu.
Cao Hong on the other side was not to be outdone. He danced like a tiger with a big sword in his hand and chopped it down on Lu Bu's head.
"Huh, if you want to bully the small, you don't even weigh how much you weigh!" Lu Bu looked at the two people who were coming to kill him, his smile full of disdain, "Don't say it's just you two, even if there are hundreds more, Thousands of people are no match for me!"
After saying this, Lu Bu did not retreat but advanced, waving Fang Tian's painted halberd and rushed forward, fighting with the two men.
Xia Houyuan was well aware of Lu Bu's power, so he did not hesitate immediately, turned around and ran back. A moment later, a war horse was replaced and he joined the battle group again.
Facing the joint siege of the three men, Lu Bu was no longer as relaxed and content as before, and had to concentrate on fighting.
After all, these three people are not ordinary people. As the most brave general under Cao Cao, Cao Hong is not good at commanding troops in battle, but his sword skills are not weak, and he is a real first-class warrior.
Although the Xiahou brothers are weaker, they are not far behind Cao Hong.
The three of them worked together to lay siege, and it would not be a problem to fight Lu Bu in a short period of time.
Cao Cao watched the battle from behind, clenching his fists with complicated eyes.
First, he was shocked by Lu Bu's strength, that he could fight evenly with the three of them.
Cao Cao knew better than anyone else the power of his brothers. There are many people who can defeat three people in a duel, but this thief general can calmly face the siege of three people...
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Cao Cao would never believe it.
Furthermore, he was also afraid that the three of them would make mistakes, and he was even too nervous to breathe.
On the other side of the battlefield, the situation began to become clearer.
Without Lu Bu taking the lead in the charge, after the first wave of Bingzhou Army's offensive was withstood, Cao Cao's soldiers began to counterattack, and a tug-of-war began.
These three people are so difficult to get along with...
Lu Bu became more and more impatient as he fought and wanted to kill the three men immediately.
He was not afraid of the three of them, but he was worried that if he delayed for too long, the large forces in the city would inevitably be dispatched, and he would be attacked from both sides.
But the cooperation between the three of them was really tacit. Whenever Lu Bu wanted to attack one of them, the other two would use their strength at the same time to force Lu Bu back, and they would fall into a tough fight again.
It seems that the three of them also understand the current situation very well, and they just need to delay it. The longer you delay, the greater your chances of winning.
During the fierce battle, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded in the distance.
Seeing this, the faces of Xiahou Dun and the three others showed joy.
Reinforcements have arrived, let's see how cruel this thief will be!
The three of them could hear the sound of horse hooves, and Lu Bu naturally heard it too, and couldn't help but become more impatient.
"Die!"
Lu Bu roared, and swept Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand, forcing Cao Hong and Xiahou Dun back, and then slashed down Xiahou Dun with all his strength.
Among the three, Xiahou Dun was the weakest in martial arts, so he naturally wanted to attack this weakling.
"How dare you, thief!"
Seeing that his brother was in danger, Xiahou Dun shouted quickly and slashed down with his sword, forcing Lu Bu to turn around and block his blow.
Hearing the sound of horse hoofbeats getting closer and closer, Lu Bu's ferocity was completely aroused and he entered a state of madness.
"Get away!"
Fang Tian's painted halberd was like the sickle of death, slashing at Xia Houyuan.
Xia Houyuan hurriedly raised his sword to block, but Lu Bu's angry full blow was not easy to deal with, and he was directly knocked away with his weapon.
At this time, reinforcements finally arrived, and they were Zhang Liao's troops.
Zhang Liao originally led his men around to search for corpses, but suddenly he heard loud shouts of killing in the distance and hurried over with his soldiers.
When he saw Lu Bu fighting against three generals in the rebel army, his eyes were full of surprise.
"Fengxian!"
Zhang Liao stared at Lu Bu in the distance and suddenly became a little distracted.
