Chapter 143: Defeat
In the midst of the war, LΓΌbulema turned back and retreated with the wolf cavalry battalion.
After suffering such a big loss, Lu Bu naturally held back a vicious anger in his heart, and he was ready to return to the camp to gather all the people and fight with the Xianbei people again.
When retreating to the half-mile road outside the camp, a fierce shouting and the sound of weapons clashing came from inside the village.
Lu Bu's heart sank, and just as he wanted to give the order to return to the camp quickly, he saw Wei Musheng rushing out of the camp with more than a thousand people.
Seeing Lu Bu, Wei Musheng hurried over, with a particularly depressed expression on his face: "General, the Xianbei people attacked the camp, and our army was caught off guard and suffered heavy damage. β
Hearing the news, Lu Bu was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and his body couldn't help but shake twice on the horse's back, but fortunately, he stabilized his body in time so that he would not fall off the horse.
Ka Qi's henchman general Kuo Bei came by detour, with the intention of outflanking Lu Bu from the rear, but he was pleased to find that there were still soldiers sleeping in the Han camp, so he simply led people into the village.
The Han army in the camp was caught off guard and could only rush to meet the battle, but fortunately, Wei Musheng reacted in time and led a group of people to kill.
Now that the Xianbei people are attacking from front to back, the situation is imminent.
Whether to fight or go, a decision must be made immediately.
Lu Bu looked around at the soldiers, and thousands of eyes also focused on him at the same time.
The light in the eyes of the soldiers was firm and decisive, as long as Lu Bu said the word 'war', they could risk their lives and fight to the death with the Xianbei people.
The expressions of the generals Lu Bu saw in his eyes, and at this moment he was also angry in his heart, and he couldn't wait to go up and kill all these Xianbei people.
But the situation is stronger than the people.
Most of the surrounding soldiers were painted on their bodies, and the Xianbei people came prepared, and they absolutely crushed them in terms of numbers alone.
If they fight to the death, they can indeed kill three or four thousand Xianbei, but they will also be wiped out.
Is it worth it?
Lu Bu asked himself, the answer was no.
If they all die here, there will be no other meaning than leaving corpses all over the ground for crows to peck at.
Lu Bu has a red horse and a Fang Tian halberd, even if he is encircled, he can still rush out, but what about the others?
The Xianbei cavalry in front of him had already been killed, Lu Bu's face was full of violence, he opened his mouth to reveal two rows of dead white teeth, provoked two wolf eyebrows, and roared at the Xianbei cavalry who was killed in front: "Woo~Ahh!!h β
The galloping horse seemed to be greatly frightened, and he restrained his pace, raised his hooves and stepped twice in the air. The horseman on horseback wrapped his hands tightly around the horse's neck so that he did not fall.
When he straightened up, the sharp halberd tip had already touched his throat, and the icy breath instantly hit his whole body, and he didn't dare to make any more moves.
Then, I heard the Han general in front of him speak in Xianbei language, and there was a huge anger that could erupt at any time in his calm words: "Tell Ka Qi that Lu Bu has written down today's gift." β
After that, Lu Bu withdrew the halberd, turned the horse's head, and shouted: "Go!" β
Xi Ce is right, he is a general.
No matter how unwilling you are, no matter how aggrieved and uncomfortable you are, you have to endure it.
Under the leadership of Lu Bu, a group of soldiers rushed through a bloody road from the rear and fled from here.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Near noon, Lu Bu and the others passed through a green forest and chose to rest here.
Of the original 4,000 riders, now there are less than 2,000 left.
Ninety percent of the soldiers had wounds on their bodies, and they leaned their backs against the tree, casually tore a strip of cloth from their bodies, bandaged them twice, and then began to squint and doze.
From the beginning to the end, not a single person complained, and no one cried out in pain.
Goo ~ Goo ~ Goo ~
It was time for lunch, and the soldiers had begun to protest strongly in their stomachs.
From morning to now, not only have they not touched a grain of rice, but they have not even been able to drink a sip of water.
The camp was looted, and all the grain and grass materials fell into the hands of the Xianbei people. Even if it arrives from Zhiyang, it will arrive tomorrow at the earliest.
The most annoying thing is that it is early winter, the wound healing speed is extremely slow, and there is no medicine to stop the bleeding and heal the wound, which can easily cause the wound to ulcerate.
Lu Bu understood this very well in his heart.
It seems that he can only return to Linwo or Zhiyang.
Lu Bu sighed, remembering the man's words before he died in the morning, he frowned deeply.
Why call yourself to save them?
Since you are not afraid of death, and you have weapons in hand, haven't you thought about resisting?
While thinking about it, Lu Bu's eyes suddenly shrank, and a cold light flashed.
The resting soldiers suddenly opened their eyes, and they, like Lu Bu, heard the sound of horses' hooves.
"It's a donkey grass thing, it's so far away, and the Xianbei dog is still ghosted." Cao Xuan gritted his teeth and said.
"General, do it!" One of the soldiers pleaded loudly.
As soon as these words came out, the remaining soldiers asked Lu Bu for their orders: "General, fight with them!" β
Looking at these indignant Han family sons, Lu Bu raised his hand and made a quiet gesture, lifted the painting halberd that was resting aside, and took the lead in turning over the horse's back.
The soldiers behind him stopped talking, and all of them turned over and got on their horses.
Two thousand horses galloped wildly, their hooves stomping heavily on the ground, and the whole earth trembled for a moment.
"Combat readiness, combat readiness!"
Feeling the shaking of the ground, Hu Che'er pulled out his war knife and lowered his voice and roared.
For the safety of Xice, he specially found a secluded path to walk, but he didn't expect to encounter a large-scale dispatch of Xianbei people here.
I hope you don't come to your side.
Hu Che'er prayed secretly in her heart, but the more she was afraid of something, the more she came.
The sound of horses' hooves was about to arrive here, Hu Che'er did not hesitate, and immediately asked people to evacuate first with a strategy, but he chose to stay and delay time.
The battle between the two sides was about to break out, and even the air was quiet at this moment, only a cold wind quietly blew in the ears.
The moment they met, both sides were stunned on the spot.
The water almost washed away the Dragon King Temple!
It took a long time for Hu Che'er to come back to his senses, his tightly knit eyebrows slowly relaxed, and he said in disbelief: "General, how could it be you?" β
Lu Bu lifted his leg and slid off the horse, causing the rushing soldiers behind him to stop their pace and rest in place for the time being.
When he saw Wei Musheng, Cao Xing and others coming one after another, Hu Che'er understood why he met Lu Bu here.
He never thought that this arrogant young man who was invincible in his memory would also have a day of defeat.
I didn't hear the sound of the sword fighting, and the departing joke turned back.
When he saw a group of wounded soldiers, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Lu Bu, who was bandaging the wounds of the soldiers, saw the banter on horseback, and his face was full of helplessness and a wry smile: "I never wanted you to see my embarrassment and downfall, sir, but every time I was bumped into by you." β
"War itself is a game, there are losses and wins. If you lose this time, you will win it back next time. β
Xi Ce dismounted and walked over, so he said.
