Chapter 399: You're Waiting?!
"Really?" Ma Chao smiled miserably, and then said with a misty look in his eyes: "The blade in our hands can indeed cut down lives, break hatred, and even, the power and wealth we want can also be obtained by it." But there is one thing, which is not broken by this blade......"
After saying that, Ma Chao waved his hand. In the midst of the firelight, Lu Bu's eyes shrank suddenly, and he suddenly saw Liu Xiu who was supported by the two guards behind Ma Chao!
At this time, Liu Xiu was still dressed in palace clothes, and he didn't seem to have been abused. It's just that her face is dead and desperate. And when she saw Lu Bu, it was unnatural for the pear blossom to cry with the rain: "Husband! .......β
"Ma Mengqi!" Lu Bu's eyes suddenly turned red, and he scolded angrily: "Do this, you also have the face to live in this world?!" β
Ma Chao's face was indifferent, he was watching and waiting. He wanted to know how much weight this Liu Xiu had in Lu Bu's heart!
And at this time, Tang Xiaomi, who was in the distance, had quietly set up her newly obtained Yuanrong crossbow, hidden in the crowd, and quietly aimed at it.
Tang Xiaomi has not learned any martial arts, nor will he invoke the breath in his body to fight violently or continuously. Therefore, compared with these people, she has a great advantage, that is, she does not have a trace of murderous energy: since Ma Chao can't find this, then Tang Xiaomi firmly believes that Lu Bu won't find it either. Therefore, she felt that at this time when Lu Bu's mind was in turmoil, shooting Lu Bu was really a godsend that she had not encountered in ten years.
However, when Tang Xiaomi had already aimed at Lu Bu, she suddenly saw that Ma Chao shook his head slightly, signaling Tang Xiaomi to give up this assassination. Although Tang Xiaomi was puzzled, he still followed Ma Chao's instructions.
But Ma Chao knew that he had saved Tang Xiaomi's life just now: in terms of feelings, Ma Chao felt that he and Lu Bu were the same, both eager and afraid. However, Lu Bu is too dark and forbearing, and he has been suppressing his emotions, so that others cannot see his true psychological activities. Just like now, although Lu Bu looked emotional, Ma Chao noticed that Lu Bu actually turned the angle of holding the halberd slightly, so that he could quickly turn around to defend and counterattack!
Ma Chao didn't know how Lu Bu found Tang Xiaomi, but this fully showed that Lu Bu could still be calm at this time, and he was even using Liu Xiu's excuse to continue to wait for the wolf rider to break through the city gate! After all, no matter what you say, at present, although Lu Bu's side has a small setback, the absolute advantage is still controlled by them.
However, fortunately, Ma Chao is also waiting. Therefore, he didn't mind a war of words with Lu Bu at this time: "Do you know the general, why haven't I ordered my subordinates to shoot the general with ten thousand crossbows in unison?" β
"You want to take me in?" Lu Bu spoke, and at this time, Ma Chao realized that his eyes when he looked at Liu Xiu really revealed a trace of true feelings: it was a contradiction, a nostalgic emotion.
Perhaps, when Lu Bu said this, he didn't care about Ma Chao's answer at all. Because he was sure that he would not be killed or subdued by anyone. And Ma Chao naturally knew this, so he shook his head and said, "No, since the general awakened, no one in the world can subdue the general." The reason why I don't kill generals is because I feel like we're the same kind of people. β
"Humph! At least, I won't kidnap your wife and children to blackmail you! Lu Bu finally couldn't help but say this. After hearing this, Ma Chao smiled slightly, waved his hand and asked the guards to take Liu Xiu down, and then said to Lu Bu: "General rest assured, Mrs. Zun will only stay in Fufeng for a few days." When Chao returns to Chang'an, it will be the day when the general's wife will be reunited. β
At this time, Ma Chao probably guessed Lu Bu's feelings for Liu Xiu: Perhaps, Lu Bu can do it and can stand through it. But if Liu Xiu is kept and this guilt and longing continues, Ma Chao feels that this fetters will become heavier and heavier for Lu Bu.
At this point in the conversation between the two, the burning pine oil had gradually lacked stamina, and although the ground at the city gate was still hot, it was difficult for human feet to stand on it. But for the horses' hooves, it is not a big deal. As a result, Ma Chao heard Xu Rong's shout again at this time: "Cao Xing, the crossbowmen attack!" β
Cao Xing was the general under Lu Bu, and in this battle, Xu Rong was Lu Bu's deputy general and had the power to transfer Lu Bu's subordinates. However, with such a direct shout, Ma Chao could hear that Xu Rong had begun to be a little anxious about the trapped camp.
"The sword and shield guards the pikemen in a charging formation! Archers followed! "Gao Shun has always been very good at the method of improvisation.
Sure enough, after Cao Xing rushed over this time, he immediately encountered sniping from sword and shield men and pikemen. Although the two armies were fighting on their feet, under the factor of mutual restraint of the troops, the soldiers who were trapped in the camp had already stepped on the crossbowmen under Cao Xing to continue to kill the enemy in less than a cup of tea.......
This time, Lu Bu's face was even darker. The halberd clenched in his hand also seemed to start to rattle. And then Xu Rong's voice was already a little anxious: "Who can break through the enemy army!" β
Song Xian and Zang Ba replied in unison: "I am willing to go!" β
This time, Song Xian and Zang Ba's attacks were obviously targeted. Song Xian led the wolf cavalry to charge ahead, and Zang Ba led the crossbowmen behind, relying on the strength of the crowd, the two of them started a desperate struggle with the soldiers who fell into the camp at the wide city gate!
This time, Gao Shun didn't have a better way to deal with it, he just took the lead in rushing into the enemy formation, and after picking a wolf rider from Bingzhou, he shouted loudly: "The whole army charges, the will to fall into battle, there is no retreat!" There is death and no life! β
"There is advance and no retreat, there is death and no life!" The remaining less than 100 soldiers roared hard!
This time, the trapped camp is really in a bitter battle, because there are too many enemies. Every time they work together to kill an enemy, new ones are immediately replenished. Before they knew it, they had been surrounded by the Lu Bu army, and the trapped camp was still fighting to the death, like a sharp long sword, stabbing into the heart of the Lu Bu army! Although hot-blooded men continue to fall, someone will fill the vacancy immediately! Like a lone wolf who does not want to die, he will bite the bloody throat of the enemy even if he dies!
However, no matter how strong the reef is, it cannot withstand the erosion of the rough weather for a long time. Even though the trapped camp is exquisite and incomparable, the fighting spirit is monstrous, but after all, they are only flesh and blood, they are also tired, and they will also be injured, as the morning sun gradually rises, the demise of the trapped camp is already predictable......
"Trap the camp and retreat, heavy armor ready to assault!" Ma Chao drank loudly, he never wanted Gao Shun's general to die in this narrow city gate.
"Ma Chao, you don't have a chance!" Lu Bu was also paying attention to the battlefield, and when he saw that Ma Chao had already taken out the last hole card and started to fight hard, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "You didn't order your subordinates to besiege me, it's really the biggest mistake in your life!" β
But as soon as the words fell, Lu Bu's face changed. Because even across the city wall a few feet thick, through the roar of the wolf cavalry and the trapped camp, he also heard the sound of horses' hooves spreading like rolling thunder outside the dock!
The rumbling sound that seemed to be able to step through the light of the morning sun directly shattered Lu Bu's proud and determined heart!
"Ma Chao, it turns out that you have been waiting for a long time?!" Lu Bu was really angry this time, because he could predict what the meaning of this horse's hoof represented: the reason why he didn't besiege himself was to watch himself lose in his hands!
