Chapter 44: Zhao Yun vs. Lu Bu
Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren obviously learned from Cao Hong's mistakes and took a defensive posture when facing Lu Bu, so that they would not be unprepared when Lu Bu burst into action.
However, Lu Bu turned a blind eye to the two men's full vigilance. The red rabbit horse he dismounted showed no signs of slowing down from the beginning to the end, and just rushed straight towards the two enemy generals in front.
When Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren saw Lu Bu's arrogance and arrogance, not only did they not feel angry because of being looked down upon, but they even sweated on their foreheads because of their nervousness.
"Hey!" Lu Bu raised his halberd high and stabbed Cao Renzhi, who was closer to him, in the head.
When a halberd is thrust out, it is like causing thunder in the nine heavens!
Cao Ren did not dare to show any slightness and swung the spear in his hand with all his strength to resist.
There was a "clang" sound, and the moment the weapons of the two sides met, Cao Ren suddenly felt a momentary numbness in his wrist, and he and his horse were knocked back several steps.
Xiahou Yuan's martial arts skills were higher than Cao Ren's. When he saw this, he was afraid that Cao Ren would be at fault, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help. However, Lu Bu saw Lu Bu swinging several halberds at Xiahou Yuan's vital points, and soon forced Xiahou Yuan aside.
After quickly forcing the two men back, Lu Bu did not have any further entanglement with them, and just rode forward on his horse.
And the army behind him did not stop for a moment, like a torrent, ignoring all obstacles in front of it.
Lu Bu's goal was very clear - that was Cao Cao's head. Before obtaining Cao Cao's head, he had no intention of wasting a moment on anyone else.
The total number of troops behind Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan was nearly 20,000. They waved their weapons and attacked the Lu Bu army in front of them. Although they did cause many casualties to Lu Bu's army, as long as Lu Bu's footsteps did not stop, the troops behind them would
The army will continue to follow him. I saw that Cao Jun's army formation was gradually torn open, and the distance between Lu Bu's army and Cao Cao's army was getting closer and closer.
Although nearly half of Lu Bu's 15,000-strong army had been lost at this time, Cao Cao, who was in the middle of the army, could not help but feel uneasy when he saw that the distance between the enemy and himself was getting smaller and smaller.
"Dian Wei should be able to stop that crazy Lu Bu." Cao Cao prayed silently in his heart.
Now Dian Wei is also trying his best to rush towards Lu Bu. He originally thought that with the combined strength of Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan, even if he cannot defeat Lu Bu, he should be able to forcefully fight to a draw with him. However, unexpectedly, Lu Bu has no control over them.
After much explanation, he still led the army directly towards Cao Cao's army. Lu Bu was too dangerous, and we must not let him get close to Cao Cao!
However, before Dian Wei could reach Lu Bu, Lu Bu's progress had been effectively blocked.
A silver gun shuttled back and forth in front of Lu Bu, exuding a little bit of murderous aura and fighting spirit.
Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong!
"Roar!" Lu Bu let out a loud shout. At first, he didn't take the young general in front of him seriously, and wanted to kill him with one blow. But after the fight, Lu Bu suddenly realized that his marksmanship was so superb that it was really
It was far beyond his expectation. In normal times, Lu Bu would have been interested in fighting with him, but now Lu Bu's main goal is to kill Cao Cao in all his actions, and he has no intention of fighting.
He attacks the opponent with his halberd, intending to force him back briefly, then immediately gallops forward and continues running forward.
Zhao Yun studied marksmanship with the gun prodigy Tong Yuan and learned the essence of his martial arts. Even if he didn't practice the Hundred Birds Chaofeng Spear to a 100% level, it was at least 99% good. The marksmanship created by Tong Yuan was exquisite.
Not to mention that it is unpredictable, its most profound aspect is the guidance and control of "power". Facing Lu Bu's unparalleled attack, Zhao Yun's counterattack was neither simply to resist the Fangtian Painted Halberd in Lu Bu's hand, nor to attack.
The enemy must be rescued, but the targets of his attacks are chosen correctly. Every time, he can cut off Lu Bu's "power" with great accuracy, thus successfully blocking Lu Bu's offensive. Although Zhao Yun is strong in martial arts, he is not as good as Lu Bu after all.
, if Lu Bu can put away his impatience at this time and compete with Zhao Yun with a pure battlefield mentality, although Zhao Yun's marksmanship is superb, there will be a moment when he is unable to catch him in front of Lu Bu. However, at this time, Lu Bu only wants to
He tried to escape from the opponent's entanglement as early as possible. Although the moves he used were extremely powerful, they were also very direct and easy to figure out. At this time, Zhao Yun's method of dealing with Lu Bu was completely based on the words "drag" and "entangle".
For the Lord, the purpose is not to allow it to make any further progress.
"You guys, don't stop, keep charging for me!" Lu Bu now also knew that he might not be able to defeat the enemy general in front of him in a short while. Although he was angry in his heart, he had no choice but to take advantage of the gap between offense and defense and shout loudly to the rear.
The army shouted.
All the soldiers looked at each other in confusion. At this time, Lu Bu fell into a "quagmire", and they didn't know what to do.
"Follow me and charge! It's the right time to take the head of the traitor Cao to build a great cause!" But the silence of Lu Bu's army did not last long. A general quickly rode to the front of the army.
, shouted at the whole army. If Gao Shun were here, he would definitely recognize each other at a glance - Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan!
It's just that although Zhang Liao has good abilities, he is still a little young after all, and his prestige in the army is not as good as that of Lu Bu. Although he took Lu Bu's position at this time, there were only about five people following him towards Cao Cao's army.
Thousands of soldiers and horses, and more than 4,000 people did not heed his call and stayed where they were. Although Lu Bu wanted to scold them and let them follow Zhang Liao's attack, the battle between him and Zhao Yun had become intense and he wanted to interfere with other matters.
If so, I would be powerless at this time.
In fact, Zhang Liao's choice may not be correct. When he did this, Lu Bu's army was divided into two groups, and the fighting strength of either side would be compromised. It would be even more difficult for Zhang Liao's 5,000 men to get close to Cao Cao, and Lu Bu's side
It is also more difficult for the four thousand men to defend Cao Jun's siege. But now there is no other way. If Cao Cao does not give the leader, his army will be defeated!
Of course, Zhang Liao could also choose to help Lu Bu defeat Zhao Yun early, or even let Zang Ba and others join him. But he knew that even if Lu Bu was extremely eager to take down Cao Cao's head, his absolute self-esteem as the world's most powerful general would not matter.
No moment will pass away. He can tolerate being surrounded by several people, and he will even enjoy that feeling, but he will never tolerate being helped by his own people when he is fighting, even in emergencies! Zhang Liao
I admire Lu Bu and his self-esteem.
"Block them!" In the Cao army's formation, Yu Jin, Le Jin, Li Dian, Xu Rong and other generals led their troops to block Lu Bu's army.
