"Lord, there are a large number of Huns riding in front of you, and they are coming continuously, do you want to retreat for the time being?"

In Hongnong County, Lu Bu had already gathered hundreds of defeated soldiers, arrested a few doctors, looted some pharmacies and wealthy households, captured some medicinal materials, grain and grass, and hid in a rich household's grain warehouse. At this moment, the bonfire that was lit up reflected Lu Bu's remorseful face, and the unquenchable frustration and anger in his chest were unbearable, and he hated to burn the bonfire a little more vigorously.

However, when Lu Bu heard Hou Cheng's report, the expression on his face finally calmed down a bit, and he said: "Tell the sons and daughters, don't go out to collect the rout for the time being." Avoid those Huns and ride fast, rest for a few days, maybe in a few days, a certain will return to Chang'an. ”

"Return to Chang'an?" After hearing this, Zang Ba frowned and endured the pain of the two knife wounds on his shoulder, and asked suspiciously: "Lord, didn't you already say before that Chang'an is no longer a wolf's den for us to ride wolves in Bingzhou, why now?" .......”

"Before, I didn't know the art of war, and I only had the cruelty and pride of a wolf. Now, I understand that wolves are not only cruel, but also cunning. In our case, that cunning is the art of war....... "Lu Bu said these words lightly, without explaining to Zang Ba the relationship between the appearance of the Huns' galloping horses and their return to Chang'an. But in his heart, he secretly thought that after returning to Chang'an, he would definitely have to read the military book hard.

But before Lu Bu could remember to read those military books, there was a sound of fighting outside the warehouse door. Lu Bu couldn't help frowning, stood up with his injuries, and said, "Cheng Lian, Hao Meng, Cao Xing, come out with me to have a look." ”

The three people were named, Cheng Lian and Hao Meng were slightly injured, and although Cao Xing injured his leg, it did not affect his magic skills of piercing Yang in a hundred steps. After hearing this, he immediately puffed up his blood again and went out with Lu Bu.

As soon as he opened the door, Lu Bu saw that it was his subordinates who had exchanged hands with dozens of scattered Hun cavalry. Seeing this scene, Lü Bu wanted to anger his subordinates for not obeying his order to avoid the Huns. But then she stretched out her eyes and saw that in the battle array, a female general had a strong halberd method, and she controlled the qi to make it endless, and she couldn't help but guess the true nature of the matter.

The female general was Lu Qiling, the daughter of Lu Bu, who was guarding a carriage at this time, killing or repelling several Hun cavalry from time to time, forcing them to dare not approach. And his subordinates also rescued them on the periphery. Lu Bu didn't have time to think about it, he rushed forward on his horse, carried the Fang Tian painting halberd, and after just a rush, he completely scattered the patrol formation of those Hun rangers, and then led his subordinates to surround and kill them.

In less than a stick of incense, the dozens of Hun rangers were killed by Lu Bu. A few guys who were in a hurry to escape were also shot off their horses by Cao Xing's arrows. It was only at this time that Lu Qiling stepped forward and said to Lu Bu: "Father, daughter is useless, she has been entangled by these Huns.......

"It's okay," Lu Bu waved his hand lightly, and after carefully checking that there were no horns or whistles on these Hun rangers, he said: "It's just a scattered cavalry, not an outpost of the Huns." It will not attract the encirclement and suppression of the Xiongnu army........ But, Ling'er, how did you get here? ”

"Chang'an was in turmoil, and my daughter saw that the streets were full of those Liangzhou dogs, so she asked her mother and aunt to pack up their clothes and be escorted by the general, wanting to find her father. After hearing that my father had escaped from Chang'an, I remembered the Lu family sign you said and found it here step by step. Lu Qiling said, her face was a little incredulous, and finally she couldn't help but speak: "Father, daughter heard that those rebels are just led by Li Dao, Guo Yan and others. How could the old capital of Chang'an fall into the hands of such people? ”

When Lu Bu heard Lu Qiling's question, his face couldn't help but show remorse and helplessness, and he said: "How could my father be defeated in the hands of those people, behind the scenes of Chang'an, it was controlled by that Jin Ma Chao......."

"Ma Chao?" Lu Qiling shouted, her face was even more resentful, and she was about to grit her teeth and say that she must avenge her father, but when she saw that the curtain of the carriage was lifted, Liu Xiu looked calm and said lightly: "Sure enough, it's him." ”

"What is he? Auntie, did you already know that Ma Chao would capture Chang'an? Seeing Liu Xiu suddenly say these words, Lu Qiling couldn't help but ask. Seeing that Liu Xiu and Lu Bu both had helpless expressions, they couldn't help but be furious: "Could it be that you guys were really completely defeated by that guy?" ”

Lu Bu and Liu Xiu, hearing the excitement of Lu Qiling's newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, couldn't help but show a touch of embarrassment and melancholy on their faces. Then, Liu Xiu put aside Lu Qiling, looked straight at Lu Bu, and said, "This is a letter that Ma Chao asked me to pass on to you when I left Fufeng. He said to open it again when you are far away from Chang'an, and I think it should be the time now. ”

"Xiu'er, you look ......." Lu Bu stretched out his hand to take the letter handed by Liu Xiu, and saw that Liu Xiu's loneliness and pain did not seem to come from his own defeat, so he couldn't help but ask with concern: "Could it be that there is something on your mind?" ”

"Without him, it's just that when Ling'er asked me to go with her, I was wondering if I should stay in Chang'an and guard the mausoleum for the royal ......" After that, Liu Xiu didn't look at Lu Bu again, turned around and got into the carriage. The falling curtain seemed to have become a barrier between Lu Bu and Liu Xiu.

Lu Bu knew Liu Xiu's heartache, but at this time, he was no longer able to take care of these children's affections. Unfolded the letter in his hand and saw that Ma Chao's handwriting was still so sloppy and difficult to read: The wolf is out of the cage, and the world is free to travel. Nanyang Yuan Shu, has long been the heart of the emperor, can temporarily go to hibernation, when the wind and clouds change, there is a mountain forest for the roar of pride.

After reading it, Lu Bu couldn't help but feel a little difficult to understand what Ma Chao meant. He couldn't imagine why Ma Chao would help him find a way out, and even, in the literal sense, faintly concluded that he would be a unique opportunity?

Fantastic!

Lu Bu was puzzled and wanted to throw away the letter casually. But when it changed hands, I heard Lu Qiling shouting: "Father, there is still handwriting on the back!" ”

Lu Bu was startled, hurriedly flipped over the letter, and took a closer look, only to see the handwriting on the back, which was still ugly, but the style of writing was extremely ridiculous: Defeated, right? Uncomfortable, right? See the Hun cavalry, right? Do you want to wait for them to defeat the rebels before returning to Chang'an to regain military power? Don't dream, do you think that Hun soldier is really called by Liu Xie? Tell you, that's me teasing Liu Xie.......

After reading these words, Lu Bu really couldn't help it anymore, directly tore up the letter, and shouted: "After I, Lu Bu, get out of the political control of the imperial court, will I still fall into the hands of your Ma Chao?!" ”

"Father, father......." Lu Qiling saw Lu Bu's sudden change of grief and indignation, and couldn't help worrying about Lu Bu, and stepped forward to ask, "What did the letter say?" Ma Chao wants to let the Lu family surrender to him, and the Ma family can't do it? ”

"Descended the Ma family?" When Lu Bu heard this, the corners of his mouth were bitter, and he said in a low voice: "If I hadn't been so arrogant and lowered Ma Chao, maybe it would have been a way out........

"Father! You are the god of war like no other in the world!! How can you fall into your ambition like this?! Lu Qiling listened to Lu Bu's whisper of willing resignation, and couldn't help but say angrily: "One day, my daughter will definitely get Ma Chao's head for her father to atone for his humiliation today!" ”

There are still a hundred miles to Qinguan, and Ma Chao, who is discussing the new policy of the Ma family with Zhong Xuan, a new political talent around him, can't help but sneeze. After looking up, he wrapped the fur on his body and muttered, "I don't know, did those technicians in the arsenal invent the Jenny spinning machine?" This fur coat with fur is really not warm......."

But at this moment, Xiao Tian suddenly held a green flag, rushed towards the Ma Chao formation, and said loudly: "Lord! Ten miles ahead, I found a thousand-man cavalry, I don't know if it is friend or foe!! ”
