Chapter 547 Lu Bu Among Men
"kill!"
On the city wall of Nie County, the God of Death seemed to use blood as a pen to construct a painting with splashes of ink. The gray wall made of bluestone and soil was covered with dark red blood stains, which had changed due to time. Dry up.
The sound of drums and horns outside the city were intertwined. The Jizhou army struggled to move forward under the sound of drums and horns and the threat of the war team.
"Hold on and drive the enemy down!"
"We must persist to the end and defend the city."
The Bingzhou Army in the city held on for several days, facing repeated attacks by tens of thousands of Jizhou troops. Both physical and mental strength had reached their peak at this moment. Facing the fierce attack of the Jizhou Army, they could only barely hold on.
Thousands of Jizhou soldiers climbed up from the ladder with fanatical expressions on their faces. In their eyes, Nie County was already a woman who had taken off her clothes. They could be destroyed easily. The siege of the city for several days was finally not in vain.
The defeated remnants of the more than a hundred Bingzhou troops on the city wall stood up with strength, preparing for a final bloody battle with the enemies who stormed the city wall.
But at this time, under the city head.
"Stop attacking the city and call for gold!" Jushou ordered with a serious face.
Although the Jizhou soldiers next to him didn't know what was going on, they did not dare to disobey Jushu's order, so they had no choice but to withdraw their troops.
The sound of gold ringing in the Jizhou military camp spread far away. The Jizhou soldiers in Nie County immediately postponed their offensive and looked at each other, looking at each other in confusion but not knowing what was going on.
"Why did Ming Jin withdraw his troops?"
"Yes, we only need one charge, and Nie County can be taken down in one go."
"Retreat. It's not okay to disobey military orders, but... alas!"
Not long after, Yan Liang, who was riding a horse with a dark face, quickly approached Jushou.
"Ju Gonghe!" Yan Liang suppressed his anger and asked: "More than half of the defenders in Nie County are dead or wounded. It only takes half an hour for a certain army to take over Nie County. Why did you order the gold to withdraw the troops?"
Yan Liang stared at Ju Sue fiercely, as if he would chop off Ju Sue's head if Ju Sue couldn't give him a reasonable explanation.
Jushuo looked calm and said: "General Yan, according to the sentinel news, there is a Bingzhou cavalry force of about two to three thousand people, coming quickly from the northwest of Nie County, and it should be led by Lu Bu himself."
Yan Liang's expression changed and he became even more angry: "In this case, our army should seize the time to capture Nie County in one fell swoop, and then wait for work to eliminate Lu Bu's reinforcements. Otherwise, when Lu Bu arrives, won't the morale of Nie County City be restored?"
Jushou shook his head slightly and retorted: "No, the reason why Lu Bu led his troops to help is precisely because Nie County has not been captured yet, and our army can use this opportunity to defeat Lu Bu. Now more than half of Nie County has been killed and wounded, and it is already a piece of cake on the chopping board. You can get it anytime, anywhere, there’s no need to rush.”
Jushou's idea was very simple, that is, to encircle the area for reinforcements, use Nie County to attract Lu Bu, and then gather heavy troops to destroy him.
Yan Liang snorted: "Humph, it would be good to attack those Nie counties first, and then besiege Lu Bu."
"Lü Bu's three thousand cavalry can come and go freely. If our army captures Nie County, then Lü Bu will naturally leave." Jushou explained seriously: "Please forgive me, General Yan."
Seeing Ju Shou's reasonable appearance, Yan Liang didn't know what to say and said, "I am going to dispatch troops and horses to besiege Lu Bu."
The hundreds of Bingzhou troops still standing on the city wall of Nie County were stunned.
Why did the Jizhou army stop attacking the city? You must know that Nie County is vulnerable at the moment. Thousands of soldiers only need a fierce attack, and Nie County can be captured in one fell swoop without even using archers.
"General Gao, why didn't the enemy attack the city?"
Hearing the soldiers' questions, Gao Shun shook his head: "Nie County is vulnerable. If someone is the siege general, he can win it in one battle."
Suddenly - "General, look!"
Boom!
Seven or eight miles away to the northwest of Nie County, a burst of smoke spread, as if it was the prelude to a sandstorm, and there were countless figures hidden in the smoke. The speed of the war horses exceeded the speed of the smoke. The hidden figures Kill them out.
The three thousand cavalry were like a black torrent, rushing across the earth mightily, like giant hammers hitting the ground, and heavy rain shaking the earth.
Among the three thousand cavalry, a cavalryman with a round waist and thick arms hugged a flagpole as thick as an ordinary person's forearm with one hand, and a black flag with red edges hung on it - Lu!
Under the flag is a fierce general in full military uniform, holding a Fangtian painted halberd. The horse under his crotch is very tall, dressed in red from head to tail, without a single hair, like a burning flame.
The red rabbit among horses, Lu Bu among men!
"The lord is here, the lord is here!"
"It's Marquis Wen, we are saved."
"Open the city gate, fight out, and join forces with Marquis Wen."
The hundreds of defeated soldiers in the city looked excited and emotional, while Gao Shun's expression changed.
No wonder. Seeing that the Jizhou army was able to capture Nie County easily, they suddenly ordered their troops to withdraw. It turned out that they learned that Marquis Wen was coming?
So, the Jizhou Army wanted to encircle and suppress Marquis Wen? Gao Shun, who was proficient in the art of war, understood in an instant and couldn't help but hold the spear in his hand, feeling deeply worried.
"Marquis Wen, be careful."
"Attention, the enemy is coming, pay attention to your formation!"
Seeing the high-flying battle flag with the word Lu, Yan Liang couldn't help but feel hot in his heart. If he could confront Lu Bu head-on and defeat him, wouldn't he want to become famous all over the world?
Yan Liang has always been known as the fierce general of Hebei and is very conceited, and Lu Bu is a world-famous master. If he can defeat Lu Bu, wouldn't Yan Liang be one of the few masters in the world?
Just as the Jizhou Army was dispatching and arranging their formation, Lu Bu had already led three thousand cavalry to arrive with great momentum. Lu Bu even drew his halberd and pointed it directly in the direction of the Jizhou Army's center, intending to break through directly.
Without saying a word, Yan Liang clapped his horse and rushed after him, wielding his sword: "Lü Bu, Zhuzi, do you know General Yan Liang of Hebei?"
Lu Bu sneered: "I have never been interested in dying people."
After hearing this, Yan Liangliang was furious, thinking that Lu Bu was really arrogant. The sudden slash of the sword was an angry move, as if a dragon burst out of the water, opening its bloody mouth to swallow Lu Bu in one gulp.
There was a hint of appreciation in Lu Bu's eyes: "Oh? He is quite capable."
when!
Fang Tian's painted halberd and Azure Light Saber collided suddenly, and a huge shock sound resounded throughout the battlefield. Countless soldiers' eardrums buzzed and hurt, and they couldn't help but open their mouths to look at this shocking blow.
Yan Liang took action with anger, but he struck out with all his strength, but Lu Bu waved the Fang Tian Painted Halberd and stopped him lightly.
