Chapter 521: Assassinating Lu Bu
The direction of the fire is where the gentry in the city live. ()
Along with the fire, countless attendants in these mansions ran out to extinguish the fire.
However, the strange thing is that tung oil was poured on the place where the fire started, so after the house was set on fire, the fire burned very violently. In the blink of an eye, the fire was already difficult to suppress and was blazing.
The billowing smoke rose into the sky, and it was very conspicuous in the city.
On the city tower, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao had just taken a breath when they saw a fire burning in the city.
Zhang Liao frowned and said, "Lord, it's only April now, and there shouldn't be a dry day." If there is a sudden fire in the city, I am afraid that there is a problem! At this time, Zhang Liao's nerves have been tense, but his brain is spinning rapidly, and when he sees the fire burning in the city, such a thought suddenly rises in his heart.
It's just, what's going on? But I can't think of it.
When Lu Bu heard this, he shook his head and said, "Although it is not common to start a fire in spring, it is not impossible. Wenyuan, you are too nervous, now take a good rest and relieve your nervousness. ”
Zhang Liao nodded, but his brows furrowed slightly.
He rested for a while before he regained his breath, looking at the smoke that reached into the sky, and his heart still did not relax. Although Zhang Liao was young, only in his early twenties, he was very experienced, and he looked at the smoke in the city, and then at the soldiers who kept retreating outside the city, and his face showed puzzlement.
Lu Bu saw Zhang Liao's brows furrowed, and knew that Zhang Liao hadn't let go yet. He walked up to Zhang Liao, patted Zhang Liao on the shoulder, and said, "I've been tired for a long time, I don't care what to do so much, rest well, and prepare for the next big battle." ”
This sentence woke up Zhang Liao.
Although the Xiliang army retreated, it would definitely come to attack the city, and the top priority was to rest well and cultivate the spirit is the right thing.
At this time, the Xiliang army was in front of the formation.
Fan Chou saw the billowing smoke rising from the city, and a bright light burst out of his eyes, and after waiting for a few days, he finally waited for the fire to smoke. He looked back at Li Ru and asked, "Mr. Li, is the fire burning in the city because the people who are rebelling against Lu Bu and Wang Yun have already raised troops?" ”
Li Ru nodded solemnly and said, "General, there are indeed troops in the city. Although the Xiliang army had been fighting all morning and the soldiers were tired, the troops had already risen in the city, and they had to be attacked inside and outside in order to be effective. Therefore, please ask the general to order the siege of the city, and take Chang'an in one go. ”
After hearing this, Fan Chou looked at Jia Xu.
Seeing this, Jia Xu nodded slightly.
After Fan Chou saw Jia Xu's expression, he took a deep breath and yelled violently: "Beat the drums and continue to attack the city!" At the sound of an order, the soldiers behind the army formation quickly raised their drumsticks and beat the war drums. In an instant, the majestic drum sounded again, and the soldiers who were retreating just now showed a helpless look on their faces, so they had to turn around and attack Chang'an City.
In an instant, the situation changed again.
"Boom! Boom! ……”
The drums sounded vigorously, resounding through the heavens and the earth, and one by one the soldiers were full of strength, dragging their tired bodies and continuing to attack the city.
At this time, Fan Chou turned his head, looked at Yang Ding and Wang Fang, and said: "The two generals, whether they can break through the city or not depends on today, the two generals let the soldiers under their command attack." "From the beginning, it was the soldiers under Fan Chou, Li Meng and Zhang Ji who were attacking Chang'an City, and Wang Fang and Yang Ding had not sent troops.
The two nodded, raised the war knives in their hands, and shouted, "Kill!" ”
In an instant, the soldiers brought by the two rushed out.
After hearing Wang Fang and Yang Ding's orders, this group of soldiers was full of energy, and after hearing Wang Fang and Yang Ding's orders, they rushed out of the box like a tiger, waving the war knife in their hands and rushing towards the city tower. When the Xiliang soldiers launched a charge, Zhang Xiu also patted the horse's back, rode the horse and rushed out, he recuperated for two days, and the injuries on his body had almost recovered.
At this time, it was time to fight to the death, and Zhang Xiu rushed forward.
The sudden attack of the army caused the faces of the soldiers on the tower to change dramatically, and there was a hint of fear in their eyes.
They worked hard for half a morning, just sat on the ground and rested for a while, haven't they rested enough? It's coming again, and it's too fast.
Zhang Liao saw the army attacking the city, and a spiritual light suddenly flashed in his heart.
In an instant, Zhang Liao's face changed greatly, and he roared loudly: "Lord, the fireworks in the city suddenly burst out, this must be a signal for the Xiliang army to attack, and there will definitely be a large army to help the Xiliang army open the city gate." They wanted to join forces with the outside and conquer Chang'an City. Lord, the last general will go down and block the gates of the city, lest they be broken. ”
After speaking, Zhang Liao prepared to leave.
Lu Bu stretched out his hand to grab Zhang Liao and said, "Wenyuan, you stay on the city tower, and I will go to the city to guard the gate." The enemy troops in the city have only now come, and they are all men with good strength. After fighting for so long in the morning, your physical strength is too great, and if you stay on the city tower and have soldiers to help defend the city, you will not consume too much physical strength. I went to the city to stop those who wanted to open the gates. ”
He stared at the place where the fire had started in the city, and there was a fierce look in his eyes.
When Zhang Liao heard this, he looked at Lu Bu gratefully.
On the city tower, because there are a large number of soldiers guarding it, and the Xiliang army outside the city is climbing up from the ladder one by one, the pressure is not as great as defending the city gate. On the contrary, the garrison at the city gate is different, not only to block the Xiliang soldiers who hit the city gate outside the city, but also to block the people killed in the city.
If the gates are opened, it will be even more difficult to support the overall situation.
Zhang Liao hugged his fists and said, "Lord, take care!" He bowed to Lu Bu with his fists, and stood on the city tower with his head held high with a nine-foot long knife, waiting for the arrival of the Xiliang army.
At this time, a number of ladders were once again erected on the city wall, and one by one the Xiliang soldiers once again launched a charge, and countless Xiliang troops continued to hold on, wanting to conquer the city tower. Because the soldiers on the castle tower are all elite, and there is a steady stream of soldiers, there is no great danger.
On the contrary, in the city, a large army has already rushed out.
The number of people rushing to the gates was very large, more than a thousand people.
These people are not regular soldiers, but people who are dressed in various colors to serve. Some people carried knives and forks, some people carried iron rods, some people carried long knives, and some people carried large axes...... In short, these people all have fierce faces, few of them are polite, elegant and indifferent, and even have traces of knives on their faces.
"Kill Lu Bu and add an official to the knighthood."
"Kill Lu Bu, and you can enjoy the glory and wealth."
……
This group of people is very crazy, with crazy eyes flashing in their eyes. That look longed to break Lu Bu's body into pieces, or wanted to take Lu Bu and get a reward. Of the more than 1,000 people, not a single one retreated because of Lu Bu's prestige. This group of people are all outlaws, private soldiers recruited by the gentry clan, extremely vicious, and have no fear of death at all.
Lu Bu led the troops to stand at the gate, Fang Tian's halberd in his hand beside him, his expression was indifferent and motionless.
The distance between the two sides is constantly narrowing.
Lu Bu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he clenched Fang Tian's halberd in his right hand. Since Fang Tian's halberd was one zhang and two zhang long, it could be said that Lu Bu's attack range had reached about one zhang. Because of this, an empty space came out around him, and the rest of the place was guarded by soldiers.
"Lu Bu, suffer death!"
Among this group of outlaws, a bare-headed, fierce-looking man roared angrily, and smashed an iron rod into Lu Bu in his hand. The iron rod broke through the air, making a whirring sound, and the long stick wrapped Wan Jun's strength and smashed towards Lu Bu. Seeing that Lu Bu still didn't react, Dahan immediately laughed.
Soon!
A little more distance can kill Lu Bu, just when the big man was secretly happy that Lu Bu did not move, he saw Lu Bu stepping on yin and yang, and suddenly took a step forward. In an instant, Lu Bu suddenly raised his head, staring at Dahan with his eyes like lightning, and the terrifying momentum made Dahan's heart suddenly, and a bad premonition suddenly rose.
Immediately, Lu Bu disappeared in place. At this time, the big man's long stick lost its purpose, but the big man's moves were old and could not be changed again.
"Poof!"
Lu Bu snorted coldly, and the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand was like a swimming fish, bypassing the iron rod of the big man and slashing directly at the neck of the strong man. In an instant, Fang Tian's halberd cut the strong man's throat. Because of Lu Bu's intentions, the power of this halberd was very large, and it directly cut off the neck of the big man.
A bare head, rising to the sky.
"Bang!"
After the head rose from the ground, it fell to the ground at once, and after a few grunts and rolls, it remained motionless.
His eyes widened with a look of remorse. He wanted to kill Lu Bu, but he didn't expect Lu Bu to be so powerful. Unfortunately, there is no chance of regret. Losing his head, the headless corpse of the big man was sprayed with blood, and a puff of blood sprayed out and splashed on the ground, and the corpse lost its center of gravity and fell to the ground.
Lu Bu's killing was very domineering, so that the people who rushed up quickly stopped and were stunned.
"Yes, there are so many of us, are we still afraid of Lu Bu?"
One of the lean middle-aged men roared and rushed forward brandishing an iron spear.
Seeing that someone was rushing to kill, countless people immediately launched a charge. These people are reckless, wild and domineering, and when they saw the bald man being killed just now, they didn't show any mercy, and some of them turned out to be happy. Although Lu Bu killed the bald man with one move and wanted to kill people to establish his authority, the effect was not very good, and he did not deter this group of outlaws.
A lean man with a spear rushed towards Lu Bu, wanting to kill him.
Seeing that everyone was not afraid of death, Lu Bu shouted in a low voice: "Look for death!" ”
The Fang Tian Painting Halberd in his hand picked up and slammed it down.
"Drink!" He let out a low sigh and mustered all his strength. When Fang Tian's halberd broke through the air, the halberd shaft seemed to be unable to withstand the tremendous force and began to bend. This halberd can be described as earth-shattering, moving ghosts and gods, and the halberd rod has not yet touched the lean man closest to Lu Bu, and it has already given people a feeling that the sky is falling.
"Bell!"
The weapons collided, and the iron spear and Fang Tian's halberd collided together, making a sound of gold and iron clashing. The next moment, the iron spear was smashed and flew out, and the lean man was also knocked to the ground, and there was no possibility of even standing up. Lu Bu snorted coldly, rushed forward with an arrow step, and his body of several hundred catties jumped up and slammed on the chest of the lean man.
"Ahh
The lean man screamed again and again, and his face was flushed.
"Click! Click! ”
Lu Bu's feet landed on the thin man's chest, and the huge weight directly stepped on the thin man's sternum. In an instant, the whole person's eyes bulged out, and he was directly trampled to death by Lu Bu.
Blood spilled from the corners of the lean man's mouth, staining the stones on the ground red.
He was bleeding from all his knots, and his death was very tragic.
"Who's going to die!"
Lu Bu ignored it, stepped on the lean man and raised his head and shouted. He looked like a mad demon, his expression was hideous, his eyes burst out with Dao essence, and the whole person was like a mad demon descending into the world, which was daunting.
"Whew!"
A slight vibration sounded, and a dark shadow rushed towards Lu Bu. In an instant, Lu Bu felt the cold hairs on his back rise, and countless goosebumps appeared.
Dangerous! Dangerous!
Lu Bu was very vigilant in his heart, concentrating on vigilance, knowing that he had met a master.
He will not be at peace until he kills the Assassins hiding in the shadows.
