Liu Bei and his men arrived at a small town behind Huayin Mountains in the afternoon. They were exhausted from the rush. Seeing that Hangu Pass was about to arrive, Liu Bei and his men were about to take a rest, but they were met by a group of soldiers.
attack.
Liu Bei had a large number of people, and the attacking troops were repulsed, but why did these people attack them for no reason? These people came out of nowhere. They didn't even have a chance to argue, and they were exhausted again.
Did Cao Zhi betray him? The Hangu Pass garrison patrolled? Before Liu Bei had time to think carefully about all these possible clues, he saw a personal guard galloping to report, "County magistrate, two thousand cavalry were found two miles northwest.
They’re surrounding us!”
Liu Bei was startled. He quickly climbed up and looked northwest. Where the dust was rolling, the shadows of cavalry could be clearly seen. "Retreat!"
Immediately everyone mounted their horses and ran wildly toward the northeast. While controlling the horses, Liu Bei asked Guan Yu eagerly, "Where do you think the cavalry came from so quickly?"
Guan Yu's face turned redder. He had been riding on horseback for two days, and his iron-clad body could hardly bear it. "Brother, it can only be Lu Bu's cavalry, but the problem is how did he figure out our situation so quickly?"
whereabouts!"
Let's talk about running away. If the two thousand cavalry are really caught up, no matter whether you are a relative of the emperor or a high-ranking official, Liu Bei can die without a burial place if you mess with him casually.
So Liu Bei, a group of tired people who had not slept, had to flee immediately again. This run gradually made Liu Bei complain incessantly. The pursuers behind him were like maggots attached to the bones, hanging tightly a mile behind them, and they were still
Suddenly, a group of pursuers with good horsemanship rushed forward and struck with cold arrows, making Liu Bei feel threatened. Liu Bei's personal guards had to turn around and shoot arrows to kill them.
Liu Bei knew that this was a test and reconnaissance, and he wanted to get rid of this group of cavalry quickly before the enemy launched a formal attack.
The strength of the horse's legs and the physical strength of the rider gradually became apparent, and Liu Bei was still carrying such a heavy baggage.
Zhang Fei no longer remembers how many villages, fields and wastelands they ran through in total. He only knows that the distance between them gradually shortened to less than half a mile.
Liu Bei stared blankly at the wall of Hangu Pass flashing in front of him in the setting sun. Why did he feel that it was so far away? He knew that it might be difficult for him to reach there today. He looked back at the cavalry who had caught up in a flash.
You can't kill them with your own eyes! There is a way out, but there is no time. There is no way forward, there are pursuers behind, there is no ladder to the sky, and there is no door to the earth.
Zhang Fei silently pulled out his Zhangba spear. He decided not to run away, turned his horse's head, turned around, and looked at his pursuers coldly. He knew that if the cavalry really wanted to attack, his group would definitely be helpless.
. It’s better to face it calmly, “Brother, Zhang Fei only hates that it was too late for him to meet him, and he had to meet him when he was twenty years old. Just die. I just want to let him know that your third brother is an idiot.
Man!"
"What a fool! Why don't you protect your elder brother and break out to the east!" Guan Yu roared violently and kicked Zhang Fei's horse on the butt, "If you are not afraid of death, follow Guan to the rear!" Before he finished speaking, he hung up the rope.
He was about to come forward and fight.
"Slow down!" Liu Bei saw the cavalry surrounding him and knew it was unnecessary. These murderous guys couldn't let them escape. It was impossible for them to escape with just those bows and arrows.
The opponent's cavalry was well-trained and divided into three wings: left, center and right, blocking Liu Bei's path. Especially their horses did not stop at all, but were still trotting. The cavalry kept changing positions with each other.
Always be on guard against Liu Bei and the others' sudden upheaval.
Lu Bu did not launch an attack immediately, but was still observing, and he vaguely sensed that something was wrong. He wanted to find Cao Zhi's traces, and first attack with his cavalry, forcing them all the way to Hangu Pass. Then he locked up the soldiers inside
Only by blocking and attacking from both ends can Cao Zhi's subordinates be wiped out. He has seen Cao Zhi's strength before, especially the thing that can blow up a cliff. If Cao Zhi still has it, throw some at them, Lu Bu's people will not be able to bear it.
.And after all, Cao Zhi has three to four thousand men and horses, which is not what Lu Bu's two thousand cavalry can handle.
Fighting is not more than killing people, it is just about having fun. As an excellent general, Lu Bu knew that it is necessary to reconnaissance and test the enemy before launching a large-scale attack. But there seems to be something wrong with the group of people standing in the distance. First of all, the number of people is wrong.
How could it be possible that Cao Zhi was marching lazily with only these few troops? Furthermore, there was no sign of Cao Zhi inside, so it was impossible for the general to abandon his subordinates and evacuate first.
Because Liu Bei's convoy had to protect the vehicles, the formation was a bit scattered, and Lu Bu couldn't tell who was leading the troops because of the collision of figures.
"Yun Chang, what are you doing?" Liu Bei asked Guan Yu when he saw Lu Bu's figure flashing out of the opponent's formation. He vaguely understood what put him in such a predicament.
"Brother, the opposite side is Hangu Pass. You can reach it by taking a few steps. You retreat first, and I will stop behind." After Guan Yu answered, he picked up the knife in his hand. "Brother, I will see you in the next life. Yun Chang will kill the thief for you and retaliate.
Got it!"
Seeing a red-faced man coming to kill a general with a sword, Lu Bu recognized it. He was Cao Zhi's general, whom he had seen in Xinwu. Lu Bu was not familiar with Cao Zhi's generals. He only glanced at many of them and said nothing afterward.
Image. But this red-faced man is impressive. Isn't he Guan Yunchang who had a hand with him?
"Haha! Your grandpa's big teeth are laughing so hard!" Lu Bu suddenly laughed loudly, with his open mouth showing his front teeth. "There are so many strange things happening these days. I am a dignified Marquis, and with so many guards and soldiers, I actually caught up with this worthless person.
As a general, don’t weird things happen every year, and this year they came to my house?”
"As for your big yellow wrench tooth, if you remove it and use it as a door panel, others will think it is a golden door made of gold, but then you will be very angry, but when it comes to its thick size, you have to laugh it off
It’s really not an easy task!” Guan Yu said coldly and sarcastically.
Guan Yu said that he would not stop and continued to charge towards him. Lu Bu could not let his reputation slip, so he raised his halberd and with a bang, the two of them fought.
Guan Yu felt that he and Lu Bu were born to be mortal enemies, and he still did not forget his false reputation as "the best in the world." "Brother, third brother, don't come over here. Today there is me without him, and there is him without me."
Lu Bu also never forgot about Guan Yu's provocation in the Zenith Palace that night. He had other plans that day and did not use all his strength to let the red-faced Guan Yu take advantage. But it was different today. He must teach this red-faced man a lesson.
.
"If you don't succeed in becoming my lord, I'll kill you!"
This killing sound was made by Lu Bu to encourage himself, but he forgot to call the Feibao Battalion to attack. The Feibao Battalion had never seen Guan Yu or Liu Bei, and I didn’t know if Lu Bu was chasing the right person. The words “worthless generals” just made him
They were confused, and until now Lu Bu had never ordered a fight.
So the soldiers from the Flying Leopard Battalion just surrounded Liu Bei and others. They had also seen something that could make a loud noise and kill four to five hundred of their brothers in an instant. This made them still frightened.
