Chapter 13: Engagement

Xiliang, multi-ethnic mixed living, bad water and poor mountains.

The so-called poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people......

The harsh living conditions have created the character traits of Xiliang people who can fight well and dare to fight - the elite troops brought back by Dong Zhuo from Xiliang are powerful in all directions! Who dares to be presumptuous in front of Master Dong?

And all his confidence, there is no doubt that it was brought by the Xiliang Xiong soldiers under his command.

Walking in the desolate plains, Xu Huang took the lead, and behind him, Zhang Ji's eldest nephew Zhang Xiu followed suit, whispering while following Xu Huang's buttocks.

"Xiliang is now occupied by Ma Teng Hansui, and further north, it is Zhang Meng's territory, and further north, it is already occupied by the Hu people."

Zhang Xiu gave Xu Huang a brief description of the geographical form here, Xu Huang only nodded when he heard it, and after a while, he suddenly turned his head to look at Zhang Xiu.

"Xiliang is a local hero, do you have any connection?"

"Yes. But to be honest, the energy of the strong warrior clan in Xiliang is not as great as the energy of the scholar clan in the Central Plains, and those who have the ability have gone to become warlords, and the ones I can contact are only those who have no ability. ”

"It's okay, just do it."

After Xu Huang finished speaking, Zhang Xiu spoke again.

"That Han Sui and Ma Teng ......"

"Send an envoy first to probe their tone, and by the way, also send an envoy to contact Zhang Meng to see if he is still loyal to the Han court."

Zhang Meng's father was Zhang Huan, who was once one of the three Mings in Liangzhou, who was once an old minister of the Han family and made great contributions to the Han family......

But it's a pity that he died early.

And now that the princes are rising, Zhang Meng, who is a warlord in Xiliang, has the heart to serve the court, no one can say for sure.

But it never hurts to try.

Hearing Xu Huang's order, Zhang Xiu nodded and was about to do something, but before Zhang Xiu could turn the horse's head, in the distance, the sound of horses' hooves had already sounded from all directions!

The earth roared and trembled......

Until the end of the day, a series of figures on war horses leaped out of the horizon. When I looked closely, I saw that the leader was wearing silver battle armor, holding a spear much larger than the normal size, and his eyebrows were quite exotic, handsome but a mixed Chinese-bearded person.

Xu Huangdeng, who knew his opponent well, smiled.

"This horse, I don't go to trouble him, he dares to trouble me first."

A low laugh came out of Xu Huang's mouth, but it contained a trace of cold murderous intention, seeing the tens of thousands of cavalry led by Ma Chao whirring around him, Xu Huang and even the soldiers under his command did not have any psychological pressure at all!

"Zhang Xiu! Teach him to be a man! ”

It was just a simple order, but when I saw that on both wings of the military array, Zhang Xiu and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry had begun to speed up.

……

Hanoi.

Pre-war tensions lingered in the city.

The people who came and went in the city, there were few people and many soldiers, and the soldiers under Yuan Shao's command wore armor with nervous expressions on their faces.

The soldiers' expressions infected more people - they could see the doors and windows of every house in the whole city closed, and only occasionally a pair of childish eyes floated out along the cracks in the windows, but they were quickly dragged back into the house by big hands.

In the Hanoi Taishou Mansion, the military generals and the Taishou are deliberating.

"That Wang Wei stopped in Luoyang, it seems that he is preparing to send troops to Hanoi. So here, it should be the main battlefield between the lord and Wang Wei'er! ”

Hanoi Taishou still has some strategic vision - from Wang Wei's stationing movements, he can easily judge Wang Wei's first action target.

It's a guard......

"Taishou doesn't need to worry, with me, even if Lu Feng comes first, he will definitely teach him to come and go!"

The so-called "no first" and no second martial arts......

is also a martial artist, even if one side is famous, the other side is categorically impossible to be cowardly without a fight - what do you do when you practice martial arts without a little temper?

And the vision of the defender was soon realized.

While we were talking, a spy suddenly came to report.

"Lü Bu has arrived outside the eastern city gate of Hanoi with an army of 50,000. Na Lu Bu'er kept shouting...... And ......"

The spy's words stumbled, Tai Shou couldn't help frowning, but the guard just shouted angrily.

"But what! If you have something to say, talk about it, and let it go! ”

"And then...... None of General Liu and the others dared to face the battle. ”

"Rubbish!"

After roaring, he saw the guard take a big stride and walk quickly out of the city.

until he stood at the head of the city.

And then......

He saw Lu Bu.

Inexplicably, his heart thumped.

……

At the front of Lu Bu's military formation, Wen Hou was closing his eyes at this moment.

Beside him, the deputy general stepped forward and shouted frantically, and all kinds of foul words were spit out continuously, but Lu Bu didn't move like a stone carving, only the red rabbit horse occasionally snorted once or twice, which could prove that the person who came this time was indeed Wenhou himself.

Until above the city, a burly general ascended to the top of the city, and instinctively made Lu Bu open his eyes and look up.

So, the eyes were facing each other......

Cold sweat trickled down the guard's forehead in an instant.

Just as Zang Ba roared loudly!

"The guts in Hanoi City, Wen Hou is here, and he will not open the city and surrender!"

"No need to scream."

Lu Bu suddenly spoke, and then stepped forward, until he reached the outside of Hanoi City, only an arrow away, Lu Bu raised his head and looked at the city.

Above the city, countless crossbowmen were on standby—Lu Bu was already within their range, but the guards who could attack were speechless, just staring at Lu Bu with blank eyes.

Until the voice of the gods exploded in everyone's ears.

"So, you can feel it too, right?"

The guard swallowed and foamed.

Others didn't know, but he knew what Lu Bu was talking about.

That's danger, that's staying away from this person, that's the warrior's innate instinct to fear higher beings.

"I've watched it for a long time, and you are strong enough to sense my strength level. That's kind of interesting...... This time, I came to attack Hanoi on the order of General Wang, but when I saw you, I suddenly saw that I was happy, if you were in my hands...... No, I have survived 300 moves in the hands of my subordinates, and today, what does it matter if I let Hanoi go? ”

"Is Wen Hou serious?"

"A gentleman's word is hard to chase!"

'You're not a gentleman......

complained slightly in his heart, but the moment the guard saw Lu Bu, he understood that Lu Bu's words were indeed the best choice for himself and Hanoi.

Thinking of this, the man walked down the city wall, and after a while, the city gate was opened, but he saw the guard riding out of his horse and stopping opposite Lu Bu.

"General, Zang Ba is willing to take the lead!"

"You can't, it's too much of a bully...... So, here you go. ”

As he spoke, Lu Bu pointed his hand and pointed to a young general in the back.

The young general was overjoyed when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to come out of the queue with a slight bow, and as he rode his horse to fight with the Hanoi guards, Lu Bu half-squinted his eyes and took in everything.

Soon, Lu Bu's voice sounded, and behind him, a military advisor held a bamboo slip and quickly recorded everything.
