Chapter 1200: One Person Is Not Bad
Night gradually enveloped Liyang City.
When the soldiers of the Qin army lit torches at the head of the city, the Cao army camp outside the city also lit a bonfire.
Standing on the city wall of Liyang, you can even hear Cao Jun's voice in the distance.
Holding the battlements in his hand, Lu Bu turned his head and glanced at the city wall.
Not far from him, three hundred Qin troops were preparing their swords, waiting for him to give the order to leave the city.
Glancing at the three hundred Qin troops who were about to go out of the city with him, Lu Bu said to Yan Liang and Wen Chou beside him: "If you go out of the city this time, the two generals should fight for something!" β
"Rest assured!" Clenched his fists and bowed, and saluted Lu Bu in unison, Yan Liang and Wen Chou said in unison: "Congratulations to Wen Houqi for his victory!" β
Things have reached such a situation, Yan Liang and Wen Chou also know that no matter how they persuade each other, Lu Bu will not listen.
All they can do now is hope in their hearts that nothing will happen to Lu Bu.
As the main general, if something happens to Lu Bu, these two deputy generals will definitely have nothing to do with it.
Returning the salute with his fists hugged to the two, Lu Bu turned around, lowered his voice and asked the Qin Jun who had already prepared and was just waiting for the order to be issued: "Are you ready?" β
"It's ready!" The officers who led this group of Qin troops bowed to Lu Bu with their fists in their fists, and said in a low voice: "Please wait for me!" β
"Out of town!" The three hundred warriors were all ready, and Lu Bu made a move and took the lead in running towards the city wall.
The three hundred warriors of the Qin army, who were about to follow him out of the city, also ran down the city wall along the stairs.
The Qin army guarding the city gate had already received orders, and seeing that LΓΌ Bu had led three hundred warriors down the city wall, they hurriedly opened the city gate into a gap that could only accommodate two or three people side by side.
After getting off the city wall, Lu Bu and the others did not leave the city immediately, but got on the war horses that had been waiting under the city wall for a long time.
All the horses had strips of cloth on their mouths to prevent them from neighing when they went out of the city.
As for the horse's hooves, Lu Bu did not order them to be wrapped.
Raiding out of the city at night, the distance of Cao's army was not very far, and whether he was wrapped in cloth strips or not, there was not much difference between him and the three hundred Qin troops.
Moreover, the horse's hooves are wrapped in strips of cloth, and when the horse is galloping, the hooves are very likely to slip, and it is a little more dangerous to rush and kill.
When everyone got on the war horse, Lu Bu glanced behind him, raised Fang Tian's halberd, pointed towards the city gate, and shouted: "Get out of the city!" β
With his order, three hundred Qin troops followed behind him and rushed to the city gate.
The gap in the opening of the city gate was very small, and if the soldiers of the Qin army were on foot, they could go out of the city in a row of two or three people.
But when they rode war horses under their crotches, when they went out of the city, they had to be hindered by many obstacles, and they could only walk out one by one.
In the Cao army camp, there are also some soldiers who observe the city wall of Liyang.
Normally, when raiding out of the city at night, they would mostly climb down from the city wall, and Cao Jun's attention was focused on the city wall.
Lu Bu led three hundred warriors out of the city gate, and Cao Jun, who was in charge of guarding, still didn't know it.
It wasn't until they were very close to Cao Jun's military camp that a Cao Jun inadvertently turned his head and glanced at the city gate before he found them.
"The Qin army is out of the city!" Finding Lu Bu and the three hundred warriors he led, the Cao soldiers hurriedly shouted.
Hearing his shout, Cao Jun in the barracks suddenly became a mess.
Lu Bu, who was leading three hundred Qin army warriors and was marching towards the Cao army camp, heard a commotion in the Cao army camp from a distance, and his legs were clamped towards the horse's belly, and he no longer hid his tracks, and shouted to the Qin army behind him: "Kill!" β
Wielding Fang Tian's halberd and riding a red rabbit horse, Lu Bu stabbed at Cao Jun like a bolt of lightning.
The three hundred Qin troops who followed him also shook the reins one after another, and rushed towards the Cao army camp on horseback.
"Archer!" In the Cao army camp, Cao Cao heard a commotion outside the tent, and knew that it was the Qin army who went out of the city to rob the camp.
Although Cao Cao's shouts were loud, the military camp where tens of thousands of people were stationed was even bigger, and few of the noisy soldiers heard his orders.
Since Lu Bu chose to go out of the city at night, the Cao army in the barracks couldn't see how many Qin troops rushed towards them at all, and could only see a dark shadow rushing towards the barracks.
The hooves of the Qin army's horses stepped on the hard dirt and made a loud "boom" sound.
The roar of every horse's hooves was like the sound of war drums, beating on the tips of the hearts of Cao's soldiers.
"Kill!" Wielding Fang Tian's halberd, he took the lead in rushing into the Cao army, Lu Bu held the halberd pole with both hands, and as soon as he made contact with Cao Jun, he picked up a Cao soldier who didn't have time to run far.
Lu Bu was brave and fierce, and he was also well-known among Cao's army.
Seeing him enter the barracks, the nearby Cao Jun was even more like headless flies, scurrying around.
"Lu Buxiu goes, I'll meet you!" Wielding Fang Tian's painting halberd, the rise of the killing, Lu Bu heard a loud shout from the side.
Turning his head to look to the side, he saw a general of the Cao army, carrying a spear, rushing towards him.
It was none other than Wei Xu, who had served Cao Cao in the Battle of Xuzhou under his command earlier.
Seeing Wei Xu, Lu Bu's eyes narrowed slightly, and his legs were clamped towards the horse's belly, and he was killed against him.
When Lu Bu approached, Wei Xu held the barrel of the gun in his right hand and stabbed him in the chest.
Lu Bu didn't dodge either, grabbed the air with his left hand, grabbed the barrel of the gun, roared, and dragged Wei Xu off the horse.
Holding the spear tightly, Wei Xu was violently pulled by Lu Bu, couldn't sit still on the horse, and fell down.
The buttocks fell to the ground first, and although Wei Xu fell painfully, there was no danger of his life.
He was about to get up, but Lu Bu let out another loud shout, picked up the halberd and slashed it down on his neck.
only felt a pain in his stamina, and the scene in front of Wei Xu rolled up in an instant.
The headless body bent its legs and fell to its knees, blood gushing out of the cavity like a fountain, and Wei Xu's body fell heavily to the ground.
The human head that was cut off by Lu Bu's halberd rolled twice, and was just about to stop, but was kicked by the hooves of the Qin army that rushed up from behind, rolling around like a ball under the chaotic hooves.
The three hundred Qin army warriors who rushed into the Cao army's camp were also waving the Pu knives in their hands one by one, slashing at the Cao army who were scurrying around.
The chaotic Cao army did not form a decent defensive force at all.
Although some Cao troops also launched a counterattack against the Qin army that rushed into the barracks, their counterattack was very pale and powerless under the charge of Lu Bu and the three hundred Qin army soldiers.
led 300 warriors of the Qin army, crisscrossing among the Cao army, and Lu Bu's soldiers were always around him.
rushed to kill a few times, estimated to kill more than a thousand Cao soldiers, Lu Bu mentioned the blood-stained halberd, and shouted loudly: "Withdraw!" β
With his order, the three hundred Qin army warriors did not love to fight, turned their horses, and rushed back towards the Liyang City Gate.
The Cao army, who was killed and stunned, had not come back to his senses until the Qin army withdrew from the battlefield.
Lu Bu had already led the Qin army far away, and in the Cao army's barracks, a voice came out: "Archers, shoot them!" β
Hearing this voice, the archers of the Cao Army, who came back to their senses, hurriedly put their arrows on the bowstring, ran to the edge of the barracks, and released a puff of feathered arrows towards the backs of Lu Bu and the others.
If they had fired their feather arrows earlier, they might have been able to shoot a few Qin troops.
But their reaction was really too slow, and by the time the Cao archers shot their feathered arrows, the Qin army had already withdrawn outside the Liyang City Gate.
Patches of feathered arrows lost their strength far behind Qin Jun and landed on the ground.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou at the head of the city had already prepared hundreds of long ropes, just waiting for Lu Bu and the others to turn back, and once Cao Jun pursued, they would use ropes to pull them up.
When Lu Bu led three hundred warriors to retreat, they found that there was no pursuing Cao army behind the Qin army, Yan Liang hurriedly shouted to a soldier behind him: "Pass the order, open the city gate quickly!" β
"No!" The soldiers who had received the order answered and ran down the wall as fast as they could.
While he was still on the stairs, he shouted loudly: "The general has an order, open the city gate quickly!" β
Hearing the shouts of the soldiers, the Qin army guarding the city gate knew that it was Lu Bu who led the warriors to turn back, and did not dare to delay at all, and hurriedly opened the city gate.
A gap had just opened in the city gate, and Lu Bu had already rushed into the city on horseback.
The three hundred Qin troops who followed him also rushed into the city at a gallop.
When the last Qin army entered Liyang City, the Qin army guarding the city gate hurriedly closed the city gate again.
The number of Cao troops outside the city is not superior to the Qin army inside the city, even if the city gate is opened and the Cao army enters the city, the Qin army is not afraid.
It's just that he hasn't received Liu Wei's order yet, and even Lu Bu doesn't know how to fight the next battle, and the Qin army guarding the city gate doesn't dare to slack off in the slightest.
Ran to the inner city wall, and saw Lu Bu leading the warriors to turn back, Yan Liang and Wen Chou hurriedly ran down the city wall.
"Wen Hou is really a god!" As soon as they got off the city wall, the two of them clasped their fists together and saluted Lu Bu, and Yan Liang even opened his mouth and said: "Three hundred warriors turned Cao Jun upside down, and this time Cao Cao'er must not be able to sleep well at night!" β
"Haha!" Turning over and jumping off the horse, Lu Bu held Fang Tian's halberd in one hand, raised his face and laughed twice, pointed to the three hundred Qin troops following him, and said to Yan Liang and Wen Chou: "One person is not bad, two generals can be counted!" β
glanced at the three hundred Qin soldiers, and saw that the soldiers of the Qin army on horseback were all stained with blood, and the Pu knives in each of their hands were stained with slimy blood.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou didn't believe what Lu Bu said, and hurriedly said in unison: "Wen Hou Yongwu!" The Qin army is mighty! β
Before the two of them finished speaking, the soldiers of the Qin army guarding Liyang City shouted in unison: "Wen Hou Yongwu!" The Qin army is mighty! β
Raising Fang Tian's halberd high, Lu Bu, whose face was stained with blood, raised his hand towards the soldiers of the Qin army who were shouting with a satisfied smile.
