Chapter 1081: A Call for Help

Hangu Pass may be a strong pass in the Warring States Period, but now it is just a ruined pass, perennial disrepair, no danger can be stopped, in the face of the main attack of the Cao army and the Jiangdong army, and the state army even if it repeatedly exerts force, it can never be stopped.

In this battle, although the state army completed the task of breaking off, it also suffered defeat.

The Cao army is treacherous, the Jiangdong army is fierce, and in the face of their flanking attack, there are not a few people who are injured.

If you want to say that Lu Bu is not heartbroken, it is impossible.

He knows one thing very well, no matter how many people have promised many things, what titles, what positions, they are not as good as the military power in his hands, and his military power is the foundation of his foothold in the world.

Every soldier who joins the state is his dependence, one dies, and one is less.

As a last resort, he will not use his own soldiers and horses to fight the enemy, just like when he joined forces with the Flying Bear Cavalry of Xiliang in Guanzhong to pursue the herdsman, he encountered danger, even if he knew that the Flying Bear Cavalry of the Xiliang Army would be wiped out if he did not send troops, he still would not send troops.

But he also knows a truth, if you want to get anything, you have to pay a price, even if this price is helpless, but in order to get it, he can only grit his teeth and bear it.

This is Lu Bu's perception of entering the Central Plains from Bingzhou over the years.

This place in the Central Plains is countless times more complicated than Lu Bu imagined, and I thought that with the Heavenly Painting Halberd in my palm and the red-blooded BMW under my crotch, I would be able to kill a Wang Tu hegemony.

But Ding Yuan's death was like a basin of cold water poured on his body, making him feel cold.

At that time, he knew that it turned out that political killing was far more complicated than on the battlefield, so he became more and more thoughtful, and he was no longer the invincible and invincible flying general Lu Bu on the grassland.

He's a tiger now.

The roaring tiger, as brave as ever, hides an unknown mind.

"The sons and daughters of the casualties, bury them on the spot, register their names, I want to remember each of them, and go back to the state in the future, hoping to make their names return to their hometown!" This is the only thing Lu Bu can do at the moment.

"Yes!"

Cao Xing nodded.

"Prince!"

A brisk-walking figure burst in.

"What's wrong?" Lu Bu squinted, looking at Hao Meng, who was stumbling, with a touch of impatience in his eyes.

"Junhou, located on our north flank, less than thirty miles away from Xin'an, we found a troop of soldiers and horses, which is approaching the county seat of Xin'an!"

Hao Meng hurriedly said.

"What?" When Lu Bu heard this, he stood up suddenly, he waited for Hao Meng, and said, "Is it Cao Jun or Jiangdong Jun?" ”

He instinctively thought that the Kwantung coalition was in pursuit.

That's an amazing speed.

caught him off guard, and now he has just suffered a defeat, and he hasn't rested.

"Neither!"

Hao Meng shook his head.

"Who's that?"

"And the state is on the party army!"

"Ostentatious soldiers?" Lu Bu frowned: "Why did their soldiers and horses appear in Xin'an, shouldn't they be on the border of Hedong and confront the Youzhou army?" ”

"I don't know, I've already sent someone to contact me!"

Hao Meng said.

"Keep an eye on the north!"

"Yes!"

Hao Meng took the order and left.

"Cao Xing!"

"In!"

"You arrange it as soon as possible, withdraw from Xin'an, we can't stay here, join the main force as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too dangerous, if our state army is cut off from the back road, we may face the danger of heavy encirclement!"

"No!"

Cao Xuan took the order and left.

"Hou Cheng!"

"In!"

"Did you come back from the camp?" Lu Bu was still a little uneasy in his heart, he had to make sure that his most powerful combat power was by his side in order to be safe.

Among the Bingzhou army, the two most powerful soldiers and horses, one is the Bingzhou flying cavalry led by him personally, also known as the Bingzhou wolf cavalry, one by one cavalry is like a wolf, the charge is invincible, even in the face of the encirclement and suppression of the army, it can also rush out.

The other one is Gao Shun's trapped camp.

Gao Shun's trapping camp is the most powerful foot soldier under his command, and his offensive and defensive abilities are strong, whether it is to conquer the city or cut the enemy after the break, it is the best.

In addition to the state flying horse, there must also be a trap camp to escort him, so that he can rest assured.

"I just came to the news, I have already passed the big water beach, and there are still about fifteen miles away from Xin'an, and I can arrive in Xin'an in the afternoon, and the chasing soldiers behind have basically been thrown off!"

"That's good!"

Lu Budao: "You personally led the main force of a battalion, but you answered him, and there can be no problems!" ”

"No!"

Hou Cheng received the order.

…………………………

Even after arranging these, Lu Bu still felt a little uneasy, this uneasy feeling for no reason, he was extremely nervous, he had been on the battlefield for a long time, he had escaped death many times, and each time he relied on his extremely keen sense of touch to escape.

So he trusts his feelings.

It didn't take long for someone to verify his uneasiness.

"What did you say?" Lu Bu looked at Hao Meng, who had gone and returned, and said, "Zhang Yang said, the Youzhou army has defeated their formation, and now it is heading south, blocking my way?" ”

"That's what Zhang Yang said!"

Hao Meng nodded: "In the Youzhou army, there are many tiger generals, he has 8,000 soldiers, he can't support it for a day, he has been defeated, all the way south, the killed can't form an army, and now there are less than 3,000 sons and daughters in the village!" ”

"Although the Shangdang Army is only a county soldier, but Zhang Yang took away half of the Wumeng Battalion back then, and its combat effectiveness is not weak, and in the face of the attack of the Youzhou Army, it can't even support it for a day?"

This made Lu Bu change color slightly, and his eyes were gloomy.

The Shangdang army was defeated, and he didn't care very much.

He and Zhang Yang have already parted ways.

But what he cared about was that the combat effectiveness of the Youzhou Army was unexpected, which made him a little worried.

"Lord!" Cao Xing was arranging the withdrawal of the army, and suddenly heard that Lu Bu had summoned him and a few generals from the state, and came in a hurry, and then he heard Lu Bu personally explain the matter, he pondered it for a while, and said: "The Youzhou army is also the Kwantung coalition army, will they join forces and attack us back and forth!" ”

"It's possible!"

Lu Bu's face changed slightly, looked at the marching map, and said: "From the southeast of the river, they do have the ability to cut off our retreat, and then join forces with the Kwantung princes to besiege and kill us!" ”

"Then we'll have to speed up our march now!"

A lieutenant said: "If we are intercepted, we are afraid that we will face a bitter battle, and we may not be able to retreat at that time!" ”

"I'm afraid it's too late!"

Someone said gloomily.

As soon as the man's voice fell, the voice of a fast horse outside broke into the camp, and then shouted: "Report! ”

"Come in!"

Lu Bu took a deep breath.

"Junhou, Lianshan has been lost, the road has been destroyed, the road leading from Xin'an to Hongnong has been occupied by an enemy army, and the five hundred sons and daughters of my and the state army guarding Lianshan have all died in battle, and none of them have been spared!"

"What?"

Lu Bu took the case: "Bastard, take a certain Fang Tian painting halberd here, and a certain will fight to the death with these thieves!" ”

The Youzhou army deceived people too much.

"Prince, don't be impatient!"

Everyone couldn't stop Lu Bu in anger, but a faint voice sounded, which made Lu Bu's mood sink a little.

"Dongming is back!" Lu Bu squeezed out a squeezed out a yin smile on his face: "It's just right to come back, you guard the key road for me, and you want to compete with the Youzhou Army in person!" ”

He needed Gao Shun because as long as Gao Shun was there, he could unscrupulously exert the combat effectiveness and flexibility of the cavalry.

Cavalry is also a kind of troops, with impact and flexibility, but there is no qualitative, on the battlefield, the front hard bottom, some losses, and the fighting force is not very sufficient.

As long as there is a strong position of soldiers and horses to support, the cavalry can give full play to the maximum combat effectiveness, and can unscrupulously attack any formation of the enemy.

But if they can't hold their positions, then the cavalry will be defeated without a fight, unless they harass the enemy, and they will not be able to exert a very strong influence on a war in which the number of troops far exceeds the cavalry formation.

"Prince, don't be impulsive!" Gao Shun chose one of the two between Lu Bu and Zhang Liao back then, he chose Lu Bu, not that he and Lu Bu were closer than Zhang Liao, but that he was worried about Lu Bu a little more, Zhang Liao was calm enough no matter when, and Lu Bu, he may also use his brain to think about problems on weekdays, and he will also have a certain amount of city, but on the battlefield, he is always a tiger, a tiger, a tiger roaring, no matter how much he thinks, at this time he also shows everything in the sky.

"Dongming, now that the Youzhou army has been stuck on our heads, cutting off the way for us to retreat, do I still have to cry and swallow it!" Lu Bu said coldly: "It's a big deal, I really don't believe that they can stop me!" ”

"Prince, what is the strength of the enemy's army, and what is the purpose, you have not noticed it at all, isn't it reckless to attack like this?" Among the generals of the Bingzhou Army, only Gao Shun dared to speak to Lu Bu like this: "In the battle of Bishui Pass, we suffered a lot of casualties and injured vitality, if we continue to fight like this, even if our Bingzhou Army wins and fights out of the encirclement, I'm afraid there is not much left, is this what the prince wants to see?" ”

"That so-and-so can't let them provoke and remain indifferent now!"

Lu Bu said coldly.

He was a little silent when Gao Shun said this, but he was still very angry with the Youzhou Army.

He and the Youzhou Army are clearly distinguished.

If you don't go to fight the main force of Xiliang, you have to run to snipe me, do you want to pick a soft persimmon to pinch, he Lu Bu was actually regarded as a soft persimmon, this is the most intolerable thing.

"Junhou, even if you want to fight, you don't fight like this!" Gao Shun said.

"How do you say you fight?"

Lu Bu's feelings for Gao Shun are different, he is a general and a brother, so he can tolerate any words from Gao Shun, because he knows that Gao Shun will never betray him.

"Cao Xing, what do you think of you?" Gao Shun didn't answer, but looked at Cao Xing.

Among Lu Bu's generals, Gao Shun thought that the most resourceful was Cao Xing.

"The prince has done so much, isn't it just to gain the trust of Lord Xiangguo, now is the best opportunity!" Cao Xuan thought for a while, and said with his hands: "The Youzhou army suddenly blocked our way, we can resist first, rely on Xin'an, even if it is flanked before and after, it is not a problem to block for ten days, we have cavalry, and it is possible to break through, there is no need to be so anxious, but you can use this opportunity to ask Lord Xiangguo for help!" ”

"Help?"

Lu Bu's eyes lit up slightly.

The purpose of asking for help will not be reinforcements, he will not need reinforcements to kill him, even if the Youzhou army cuts off his way, he still has a Bingzhou flying horse, can kill a three-in, three-out, who can stop him.

This request for help is just Dong Zhuo's trust.

"Please help at this time?" Gao Shun also seemed to understand a little bit of Cao Xing's thoughts.

"Then please help!"

Lu Bu decided, and he snorted: "Wei Xu! ”

"In!"

A young man stepped forward and stood by.

"You take my letter and tokens, rush to the Chinese army, and ask Lord Xiangguo to send troops to rescue!" Lu Bu wrote a letter asking for help, stamped it with a seal, and then attached a token representing his identity and handed it to the young man.

Let Wei Xu, a young man, ask for help, because, among the many generals, only Wei Xu is his relative, he has been married to Yan for some years, Wei Xu and Yan are cousins and brothers, and they are his brother-in-law, so they are quite representative in the Bingzhou army.

"No!"

Wei Xu took the order and left.

After Wei Xu left, Lu Bu slowly stood up from his position, his tall and majestic body, exuding a strong fighting spirit, a pair of eyes, bursting out like fire, and said lightly: "Fight, still have to fight, since the Youzhou army is coming, how can I welcome it, and integrate the three thousand elites of the Bingzhou flying cavalry, follow me out of the city, go to Lianshan, and meet this Youzhou army for a while!" ”

"No!"

Several lieutenants of the state flying cavalry hurriedly took the order and left.

Gao Shun and the generals did not object, as long as Lu Bu knew in his heart, how to fight this battle, they all stopped Lu Bu's, maybe Lu Bu did not have the ability to anticipate the enemy thousands of miles on the battlefield, but he had a demonic survival instinct, and he would always choose the most suitable strategic deployment.

"Dongming, you guard the city and answer me at any time!"

"Cao Xing, you come with me!"

General Lu Bu: "The rest of the troops, return to the camp to prepare, do not remove their armor, do not leave the army, ready to fight at any time!" ”

"No!"

The generals commanded.

…………………………

A quarter of an hour later, three thousand juju horses galloped out.

Lianshan, just in the northwest corner of Xin'an County, the original location is not very important, but a little south, it is the southwest to the direction of Hongnong, that is, the passage of the withdrawal of the state army.

Holding on to this place is tantamount to cutting off the back road of the state army.

Pedal Pedal !!!

In an hour's time, the horse's hooves raised a thousand kinds of wind and sand, appearing at the foot of the mountain.

"Liu!"

Lu Bulema looked up and saw that there were several miles of camps on the mountainside, and flags were flying, the most eye-catching of which was a battle flag embroidered with the word Liu: "Why not Guan?" ”

What he knows is that the chief general of the Youzhou Army is the second brother of Liu Bei, the lord of Youzhou, Guan Yu.

"Maybe Liu Bei came to Guanzhong in person!"

Cao said in a low voice.

"Really?"

When Lu Bu was a little puzzled, one after another figures came out of the camp tent of the Youzhou Army, went to the gate, and was looking down at him, he looked up and saw a figure: "Sure enough, it's Liu Xuande in person!" ”

"Tiger Lu Bu!"

Liu Bei stood on top of the gate, looking down at the bottom of the mountain, looking at the neat cavalry, his eyes flashed with a touch of killing intent: "If this fang can be killed, it will definitely be able to break the arm of the Dong thief!" ”

"The last general is going to fight!"

When Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and others heard this, they all bowed their heads and asked for their lives.

As military generals, their blood is boiling, and they have never been afraid of this fierce general with a great reputation, even if someone has put Huang Zhong, the king of Nanyang swords, and Lu Bu, the flying general of the state, and the evil of the ancients, known as the three strongest generals in the world, they also want to fight with them.
