In Cao Jun's camp, all the sergeants were dispersed at this moment.

There are those who put out fires, some who capture prisoners, and some who would rather die than surrender and cut them to the ground, but most of them are cleaning the battlefield.

The so-called cleaning of the battlefield is similar to the licking of the chicken in later generations, snatching Liu Jun's war horses, picking up baggage on the ground, and even less particular ones even feeling around to see if there is any money on them.

There are rules in the military camp. These harvests, as long as they are not important strategic resources, basically belong to whoever gets them. It can be regarded as a means of motivation.

So much so that no one paid much attention to the sound of horse hooves coming from far and near.

It wasn't until Lu Bu, holding a Fangtian painted halberd and riding a red rabbit horse, rushed into the camp gate that someone finally realized that something was wrong.

Wearing armor and holding a painted halberd, coupled with his previous record of accumulating corpses and bones, Lu Bu was extremely recognizable on the battlefield.

"Lu Bu, it's Lu Bu!"

A Cao Jun who was touching the corpse raised his head and shouted, Fang Tian's painted halberd had penetrated his corpse.

In an instant, Lu Bu rode the red rabbit horse and fell directly into the crowd with a leap. Fang Tian's painted halberd swept left and right. Under the moonlight, the cold light danced. In the illusion, the shadows of the halberds came over, and only the sound of tearing and tearing could be heard. , after the skin and flesh burst open, blood mist filled the air.

The Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry that followed Lu Bu didn't need to shout out courageous commands. They had always only known how to fight. As long as Lu Bu could be seen on the battlefield, this team would be indifferent killers, crushing them like nothing.

Cao's army, which had no formation to speak of, was charged down by the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry led by Lu Bu, and all of them were killed.

"Lü Bu is here, Lu Bu is here, hurry up, defend the enemy, form a formation." Before a centurion could finish his words, a tiger-headed golden spear was pierced in the throat, and Zhang Xiu's fast horse passed him directly. He took out the spear from the back of his spine and continued to penetrate deep.

It is true that the soldiers and horses brought by Cao Cao this time were elite. Even after Lu Bu rushed in with his cavalry, he reacted immediately with a brief shock.

But after all, they had fought for a round first, and Lu Bu's arrival was too sudden. No one would have expected that they had formed several formations, but they were all beaten to pieces by the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry as soon as they formed a large scale.

Around them, there were indeed brave Cao soldiers who were not afraid of death. They organized their troops and rushed forward. However, because there was no leading general, these formations were like broken bricks, and the army collapsed as soon as they charged.

Even the Bingzhou wolf cavalry who couldn't take care of them were rushed up by Lu Bu, one man and one horse. Like hungry tigers pouncing on food, Fang Tian painted his halberd and danced with blood-red pear blossoms.

They centered around twenty feet deep inside the camp gate and guarded the opening so that the infantry at the rear could pass unimpeded. However, Cao Jun who came to rescue was killed by Lu Bu, Zhang Xiu and Bingzhou Langqi before they could even get close.

With this situation and formation, Cao Jun's tactics were used to add fuel to the fire, and it was all in vain.

"Where is General Xu Chu! Where is General Xia Hou! Come and stop this guy!" Commander Cao Jun knew very well that if no one restrained the front army, the role of cleaning the battlefield would immediately change.

In the entire Cao camp, the only one who could stand up to Lu Bu at the moment was Xu Chu, who was just Xiahou Dun. He instinctively shouted these two names.

The camp is so huge that it can accommodate 30,000 people, so the transmission of news is not that fast.

Finally, Cao Jun came to have a strong general, Li Tong.

He was not far away, but when he heard the sound of fighting being unusual, he immediately picked up his gun and rode off.

As soon as they arrived at the scene, they saw Lu Bu like a ball of flames, one man and one horse walking along the outer edge. Wherever he went, cold light flashed, and Cao Jun's soldiers were either cut into two pieces or their heads were thrown away. This is the real killing technique, fast and Ruthless, as if the ghost of death has enveloped it, unstoppable.

People who have never seen the opponent fight with their own eyes, even if they have heard a lot about the opponent's performance, generally have the mentality that the opponent is too good, and it will be different if I go there.

But as soon as Li Tong came over, he actually saw Lu Bu killing people. This was like fighting, and he was simply harvesting people's heads. No one could help but feel fear, and even instinctively wanted to escape.

"General Li is here! General Li, please stop this guy. If he continues to kill like this, the morale of the army will be lost!"

"General Li is here!"

"Li Wenda! Li Wenda! Li Wenda!"

The morale of the army, which was about to collapse, seemed to feel like it was coming back to life because of Li Tong's appearance.

Li Tong looked around and swallowed. If he ran away, he would have no place to stand in the future, not just in Cao Ying.

Immediately, his heart skipped a beat, veins popped out, and he wanted to roar out slogans to strengthen his morale, but he saw that Lu Bu's back was turned to him, and he swallowed his words forcibly, for fear of disturbing the other party.

It doesn't matter if you don't care about martial ethics in a sneak attack from behind. On the battlefield, those who survive are the wisest choices.

Lu Bu, holding a halberd in both hands, drove the red rabbit horse to gallop. Whenever a team of more than 20 people appeared, he would gallop forward. In the blink of an eye, there were corpses everywhere, and no one could stop them.

Uh-huh!

A spear was stabbed at Lu Bu from behind. Perhaps it was the insight accumulated from more than ten years of fighting on the battlefield. Perhaps he had already discovered Li Tong who had the idea of ​​​​a sneak attack. Lu Bu seemed to have eyes behind his back, and by some combination of magic and magic, he was planning to turn back the spear. .

This blow came very suddenly, and the movement was very strange. Li Tong's spear was deflected by the halberd. Before he could adjust, Lu Bu had already hit him with another halberd.

Keng!

With a crisp sound, Li Tong's spear was knocked away. In shock, he squeezed the horse's belly with his legs and tried to escape.

It was not a battle to annihilate the enemy at the moment. What Lu Bu wanted to do was to defeat the opponent's military morale as quickly as possible. He sneered and planned to spare Li Tong's life.

Just as the thought came to mind, a spear with a golden head flew over from another direction and pierced Li Tong's chest.

After he fell straight off the horse, Zhang Xiu drew out his spear and gave Lu Bu a proud look, obviously saying that even if he was injured, he couldn't run away!

Being able to throw a spear and penetrate the general's armor, this power has to be said to be staggering.

With the death of Li Tong, Cao Jun's officers and soldiers had just seen good military morale and no longer had the confidence to fight, so they began to run deeper into the camp.

It's just that while running, he still shouts: "Retreat to the central army and join General Xiahou!"

The previous fighting sounded like it lasted for a long time, but the whole process from Lu Bu's attack to Cao's army's retreat was less than a third of a quarter.

So when Gao Shun and Xu Shengcai, who were leading the infantry, rushed in, they saw corpses all over the ground and were a little overwhelmed.

Isn't this too fast?

"No matter how you are in a daze, follow me and rush to the central army tent, chop down the commander's flag, and chill the morale of the army!" Lu Bu swirled the Fangtian painted halberd in his hand, then rode his horse and rushed into the depths.

To make such a huge military stronghold collapse the morale of the army as quickly as possible, it must be to kill the generals, seize the flag, and burn down the central military tent. Lu Bu made exactly this choice.

Outside the military camp, Cao Cao, who was originally admiring the victory in fighting the rebellion, now stared blankly at the entire camp, motionless.

The position he was standing on was a high ground, but he could not see the situation of the entire military camp at a glance.

Simply, he stopped looking and slowly closed his eyes, as if he were in a stronghold.

Saw.

He saw Lu Bu riding his horse and raising his halberd. He was invincible. He killed his own people who opened the way and fell on their backs. Like an arrow from the string, it passed through the team of 500 people led by Xiahou Dun and came to the front of the Chinese army tent.

The huge "Cao" banner was chopped down by his halberd, and then three nearby braziers were thrown away. The fire engulfed the Chinese military tent at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This scene made the soldiers of Lu's army become more and more happy as they killed each other, and made our own soldiers no longer willing to fight.

He suddenly opened his eyes and shouted: "Quick! Order the horse to send the order and retreat quickly to the direction of Runan!"

After giving the order, Cao Cao did not hesitate at all, jumped on the claw yellow flying lightning, and directed the soldiers to withdraw towards the north.

Fortunately, besides Guo Jia, he was accompanied by Wang Yue and Cao Chun, who led five hundred tiger and leopard cavalry. After being caught in the war, escaping was not a big problem.

But the people in the village were not so lucky. Even though Xiahou Dun, Xu Chu, Yu Jin and Le Jin all brought people to kill them, they still could not stop Lu Jun's charge.

Seeing Lu Bu kill his own army alone, the people were frightened and their soldiers had no fighting spirit. The four of them rushed forward and surrounded him with a tacit understanding, using all kinds of weapons to fight in one place.

"Don't worry about me, just lead the men and continue to charge!" From the beginning of Hulao Pass to the battle of Puyang, Lu Bu, who had always been tacitly accepted to be beaten, had long been accustomed to being outnumbered, so he ordered Gao Shun, Zhang Xiu and Xu Sheng to charge into the battle. Tangled with four people.

Fang Tian wielded his halberd like an arm and pointed his fingers, he was as fierce as a tiger descending from the mountain, and as swift as a dragon swimming in the sea. Even if all four generals of Cao's army came together, it was only a draw.

The five of them moved around like a revolving lantern. Even though the swords and guns around them were as fast as lightning, it would be extremely difficult for ordinary people to catch them with the naked eye, but Lu Bu could deal with the enemy with a single halberd and with ease.

Among the four, Xu Chu had the strongest force. He could also see that if it were four against one on an ordinary battlefield, Lu Bu would definitely be unable to withstand him. Not to mention taking down the opponent, he would be able to defeat him in fifty rounds.

But now, the opponent's morale is at a high level, and Lu Bu's killing spree is fierce. Even if the generals on our side are powerful, they cannot turn a deaf ear to the screams around them.

Just when I had a headache, a rapid golden sound sounded.

Judging from the tapping node, it is a retreat, and a retreat that allows you to give up everything.

"Soldiers, retreat quickly! I'll wait for the rear!" Xu Chu shouted, and finally Cao Jun's soldiers, who were originally thinking of running away but were worried about being punished as deserters, began to run away unscrupulously.

They didn't need anyone's guidance or command, they all knew that they should flee north.

As long as you enter Runan, you will be safe. There are troops stationed there.

After two fierce battles, the fire in Cao's camp became more and more fierce. In order to run faster in the sea of ​​fire, many of Cao's soldiers even abandoned their helmets and armor. The general ran desperately with the flag.

After Lu Bu was fended off by the four generals, he did not pursue him immediately. He looked around, his mind running rapidly.

After a few messages, he made up his mind, "Wen Xiang, lead the infantry to put out the fire. Put out the fire quickly. The food, grass, horses, and ordnance here are all ours, ours!"

"Here!" Xu Sheng responded and immediately took action.

Lu Bu knew very well that when faced with the enemy fleeing without their armor, apart from the cavalry, the infantry's pursuit effect was too mediocre.

In this case, it is better to save this camp.

He knew very well that Cao Cao's grain, grass, baggage, and horses would be of great help to him who suffered huge losses in this battle. If all of them were burned down for a few deserters, it would always be more than the gain was worth the loss.

Especially war horses.

In the battle at Donglinkou, he suffered so much damage that it made Lu Bu feel so distressed that he couldn't sleep for several nights. If he didn't make up for it now, then when would he be able to do it again?

Of course, the most important thing is that in addition to a thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry, he also has a thousand cavalry brought by Lin Mo and more than 500 Huainan cavalry, adding up to more than 2,000 people, it is enough to chase and kill.

The Bingzhou wolf cavalry followed Lu Bu consciously, and the rest of the cavalry were led by Gao Shun and Zhang Xiu and ran towards the north.

Although Cao Jun had already discarded his armor and baggage and all the things that would slow down his speed, two legs were still not as fast as four legs.

After rushing out of the camp, Lu Jun's cavalry were like wolves eating sheep, killing the lone Cao Jun soldiers one by one.

The horseshoes nailed into the horseshoes trampled on some of Cao Jun's corpses, and from time to time they would vomit blood and scream.

There will indeed be some people who choose to feign death when faced with the pursuit of cavalry, but fail to escape the hoofs of the horses. They will not go after them one by one. The policy they implement is to kill as many effective people as possible.

After marching ten miles, more than a thousand of Cao's troops fell under the spears of the cavalry. According to this pace of pursuit, all Cao's troops except the cavalry would die.

Obviously, Cao Cao also expected this situation, so he had someone to stop him.

Cao Chun stood on a high ground with five hundred tiger and leopard cavalry, shouting from time to time: "Quick! Run quickly, Sikong is waiting for you in front!"

When Lu Bu and his men rushed over, Cao Chun raised his spear, his cold eyes flickered, and he waved his hand: "Up!"

When escaping, there were cavalry who cut off the rear. This was nothing new. Lu Bu was not surprised at all by their appearance.

He also knew that Cao Cao had a very powerful cavalry under his command. If he wanted to protect more people from escaping, these cavalry were necessary.

It was just the opponent's formation that surprised Lu Bu.

I saw tiger and leopard cavalry charging towards them, divided into ten groups. Judging from the scale, each group should have fifty cavalry.

According to the military system, five people form a corps, and the chief officer is the corps leader; two corps is one Shi, and the chief officer is the Shi chief; five Shi is a team, and the chief officer is the team leader.

Obviously, they were divided into ten teams and led ten teams of cavalry.

But in this case, wouldn't it be broken into parts and the combat effectiveness dropped significantly?

While Lu Bu was surprised, he saw that the opponent's formation was wide open, and ten teams of troops were coming from different directions. For a while, even he didn't know where to target.

You can't stand still, after all, cavalry must have speed to exert its power.

"Kill it!"

Lu Bu responded to all changes by remaining unchanged. He rode his horse first, followed by thousands of cavalry behind him.

After a confrontation, the tiger and leopard cavalry collided head-on with the Bingzhou wolf cavalry led by Lu Bu. The man who was killed fell on his back, and only twelve cavalry were left in the team.

But the situation of the other teams was much better. They crossed in and out randomly and disrupted the rear formation. After a confrontation, they actually won an even better victory.
