Chapter 99 Lu Bu's unwillingness! (Thanks to [Shang Chunbeiqiu]
Zhao Yun looked back at Xia Houlan and saw that Xia Houlan was still posing in the same place, so he couldn't help shouting:
"The enemy is coming soon. What are you still doing? Let's go!"
Xia Houlan was pulled out of his thoughts by Zhao Yun. Looking at the enemy troops less than fifty steps away from him in front of him, he was suddenly shocked, reined in his horse, turned around and ran...
Xia Houlan and Zhao Yun's harvest from this trip was quite good.
Not only did he involve thousands of Lu Bu's troops, but he also took advantage of the opponent's laxness to kill hundreds of enemy troops, and even beheaded one of Lu Bu's generals, Hou Cheng.
Hou Cheng's performance was worthy of his status as a brave general. Until the last moment, he was desperately trying to die with his opponent.
Xia Houlan has changed a lot since this battle. As long as he is carefully trained by Lu Yan, he will become a good general in the future.
Just when Zhao Yun, Xia Houlan and their party were preparing to return to camp to repair,
Zhao Yun suddenly raised his hand to stop the army from moving forward and said, "Wait..."
Xia Houlan asked in confusion: "Zilong, what's wrong?"
"Didn't you notice that the chirping of insects and birds around you have disappeared!" Zhao Yun's words made Xia Houlan also notice the abnormality.
"Indeed, I was wondering why I've been feeling weird since the beginning, as if something is missing..."
"Don't make any noise yet, there may be an ambush around, let's exit slowly!"
As Zhao Yun made a retreat gesture,
Xia Houlan turned around and gestured to the soldiers behind him, while suppressing his voice and said: "Back off, quietly back off!"
These soldiers left by Chen Liu have undergone rigorous training, and the training courses include various situations such as being ambushed, being attacked by surprise, etc. against the wind.
Suddenly encountering an ambush, they were shocked at first, but their bodies started to act spontaneously according to their daily training content.
Cao's rear army turned into the front army and began to retreat in an orderly manner, maintaining their formation.
Hao Meng and Cao Xing, who were hiding in secret, saw that Cao Jun was so alert and had no choice but to launch an attack in advance!
"Brothers, follow me and kill!"
"Kill Cao's army, leaving no one behind!"
"kill!"
Sure enough there is an ambush!!!
However, Cao Jun had already withdrawn most of the ambush circle, and now he was calmly organizing his defense, preparing to turn the surprise attack into a positional battle.
"Infantry circular formation, defense!"
Xiahou Lan immediately commanded the infantry and formed a defensive formation with his body as the center.
"White horse Yi Cong, follow me!"
Zhao Yun led fifty white-horse righteous guardsmen and rushed out of the encirclement, waiting for opportunities to wander around the perimeter, harvesting idiots who dared to stroke the tiger's beard from time to time.
Cao Xing and Hao Meng had about five thousand troops.
They followed Chen Gong's arrangement, and after creating a large circle, they ambush on the only road between Cao Ying and Lu Ying.
However, Cao Jun's vigilance and ability to adapt to the situation greatly exceeded their expectations. The result was that what was originally a good ambush battle ended up being a positional battle.
But Cao Xing and Hao Meng were not worried, because they had five thousand soldiers and horses, and Cao's army seemed to have just fought a bloody battle, and it seemed that there were only more than a thousand men.
Hao Meng raised his spear and said to Cao Xing: "Cao Xing, let's quickly resolve the battle here and return to support Wen Hou as soon as possible!"
"As you should!" Cao Xing responded, then he drew his bow and arrow, aiming at Zhao Yun!
Cao Xing was good at shooting. Historically, one of Xiahou Dun's eyes was blinded by him, but Zhao Yun was not Xiahou Dun...
"Boom!" A string sounded, and a wolf-fang arrow rushed towards Zhao Yun's door at an extremely fast speed!
But Zhao Yun didn't even look at it. He raised the gentian spear in his right hand slightly, and the wolf-fang arrow was broken into pieces by the tip of the spear.
"Shooting an arrow in front of me?" Zhao Yun showed a smile, then took the bow and arrow of a white-horse Yi Cong beside him, and said: "It is disrespectful to come and not return!"
Zhao Yun's bow and arrow contained the powerful power he had given him, and the friction between the arrow body and the air even made a buzzing sound!
"Buzz!!!"
This arrow is as fast as thunder and its body is like lightning!
With this arrow, Cao Xing had just seen Zhao Yun release his hand from the bowstring, and it was already in front of him!
Cao Xing no longer even had the idea of escape. At the last moment of his life, he had only one thought in his mind: "I have nothing left..."
"Pfft!" Cao Xing was shot in the head with an arrow, and died neatly and without any delay.
Zhao Yun's archery skills are usually rarely displayed, but in fact, his archery skills are very superb.
Cao Xing was only a second-rate general. He was able to shoot Xiahou Dun blindly because of his good archery skills and luck.
Facing Zhao Yun's arrow, Cao Xing, who was completely unprepared in advance, could only drink his anger on the spot...
"Cao Xing!" Hao Meng looked at Cao Xing who was shot in the head with an arrow, and his heart was instantly filled with fear of Zhao Yun.
"Should we fight?" As soon as Cao Xing died, Hao Meng suddenly felt that he was alone.
Then he saw that Zhao Yun was suddenly approaching him.
"Crack an egg!" Hao Meng immediately made up his mind and shouted: "Brothers, withdraw!"
Lu Bu's army, which rushed towards Xiahoulan's military formation, did not even look at Xiahoulan's military formation and ran past them while roaring.
"???", Xia Houlan: "Hey! Why are you turning a blind eye to me? Don't I, Xia Houlan, have no face?"
Zhao Yun also looked at Hao Mengjun who was running fast in shock, and murmured: "Run away?"
Hao Meng's decisiveness shocked Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan, but his decisiveness did save the lives of many Lu Bu soldiers.
"Chasing?" Xia Houlan asked Zhao Yun blankly as he came to his side.
"That's all, let's go back to camp to rest first, brothers are all tired."
...
In Puyang City, the battle is extremely fierce!
This was the third time that Lu Bu rushed to the city. This time, just like the two times, all the soldiers around Lu Bu died quickly, leaving him alone to fight alone.
Without the red rabbit horse, Lu Bu's combat power was reduced by at least 30%, and his mobility was greatly reduced, so he could easily fall into the quagmire of being besieged.
Lu Bu couldn't get close to Cao Jun at all.
The people at the front of Cao's army were carrying thick shields, and countless spears protruded from the gaps between the shields!
Even Lu Bu felt like a dog biting a hedgehog, unable to swallow the turtle shell that looked like it had thorns on it.
One person can defeat ten thousand soldiers, that is a plot that only exists in novels.
Chen Gong, who was under the city, saw that the third attack on the city was almost repelled. He sighed helplessly and had to ask for money to withdraw his troops.
Hearing the sound of retreating, Lu Bu looked at the inner city of Puyang, which was just around the corner, and roared: "Diao Chan, Lingqi!!!"
So close is the end of the world!
The Cao army in front of him seemed like a chasm that Lu Bu could never cross...
Lu Bu stared deeply at Yu Jin who was hiding among the Dunjia soldiers with his red eyes.
Yu Jin felt cold all over at Lu Bu's glare. He couldn't help but move back, hiding himself deeper...
Maybe he had to obey military orders, or maybe he couldn't find an opportunity.
Lu Bu wielded the Fang Tian Painted Halberd, and after repelling Cao Jun's attack with one sweep, he turned over and jumped directly from the city wall!
“Bang!!!”
Lu Bu bent his legs slightly and hit the ground hard. He made a big cracked hole in the ground, but he didn't seem to feel it at all.
r Yu Jin was lying on the female side, looking at Lu Bu under the city wall and smacking his lips.
Thinking of the rumors that Lu Yan and Lu Bu fought in a one-on-one duel, he was shocked and said in his heart: "A guy like Lu Bu who is almost a ghost, Mr. Lu can actually fight with him in a fight where both sides will lose?
