The Strongest Lu Bu: Sweeping the World

After the first confrontation broke out between the two sides, it is not that Cao Cao did not consider other methods. However, the Xuzhou army was very cunning. Some schemes, as if they could be seen through by Lu Bu in advance, not only did not work, but lost a lot of soldiers. .

The biggest advantage of the cavalry lies in their speed and impact. The Xuzhou cavalry used these two advantages very well, often confusing Cao Jun.

This made Cao Cao feel that the crisis was approaching. If the situation continued like this, Cao Jun might fail.

However, Cao Cao had a reason to move forward. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and no one can be sure what will happen next moment. If Yuan Shu loses his mind and sends a large army to threaten Pengcheng, Xuzhou will be in turmoil. Tao Qian can return to Pengcheng. to no small effect.

These are Cao Jun's opportunities.

Compared with Yuan Shu, Cao Cao felt that Lu Bu was easier to deal with.

In two days, Cao Cao finally came to the outside of Gaoping City. On the way to Gaoping, it was a nightmare for Cao Jun. He needed to beware of Xuzhou cavalry coming out at any time. Obviously, it only took more than half a day to walk. day.

"Ambition to fall into battle!" Gao Shun shouted.

"There is death, but there is no life!" The soldiers of the trapped camp responded in unison.

With the arrival of Cao Jun, how could the Xuzhou Army have any reason not to step forward? Killing Cao Jun's soldiers as much as possible in the battle will be more beneficial to the future situation of the Xuzhou Army.

Chapter 157 Guo Jia's Worries

Just when the camp attacked Cao's army and Lu Bu led the cavalry to kill, the city gate opened wide, and Xiahou Dun led [-] soldiers out of the city to meet them.

This is a melee. The two Cao armies attacked the Xuzhou army from the front and back at the same time. The situation that was originally unfavorable to the Xuzhou army is now a different situation. The fighting power of the trapped camp is tyrannical. After entering the Cao army, they quickly destroyed the formation of the Cao army. However, the three thousand Cao troops who followed Xiahou Dun out of the city were blocked by a thousand cavalry.

Cao Jun's fighting spirit is high, so how could the Xuzhou Army show weakness? In previous confrontations, it was the Xuzhou Army that had the upper hand. Naturally, they would not back down when facing Cao Jun.

After Lu Bu led the Xuzhou cavalry's gains on the battlefield to the army, the soldiers of the Xuzhou army were encouraged. This is the opportunity to teach Cao Jun a painful lesson. It is still very necessary for Cao Jun to realize the strength of the Xuzhou Army.

For a while, the war fell into a stalemate.

Cao Jun was eager to enter the city, but being trapped in the camp was like a mountain in front of them.

After fighting against the trapped camp, many Cao Jun soldiers showed fearful expressions. It was hard for them to imagine that an infantry could have such destructive power.

Cao Cao frowned. The moment Lu Bu led the cavalry to intercept him, Cao Cao knew that the road to Gaoping would not be smooth. Sure enough, the Xuzhou army made a fierce block outside the city. It also failed to stop the Xuzhou army from attacking.

"It really is an elite soldier who is trapped in the camp!" Cao Cao exclaimed.

Cheng Yu said: "Although there are only 800 people in the trapped camp, they can fight against cavalry. Now the trapped camp is equipped with hundred-refined weapons, and their strength is even stronger."

Speaking of this, Cheng Yu is also deeply worried. In the Xuzhou Army, there are not only brave and skilled cavalry, but also such elite infantry. If they confront the Xuzhou Army in open battle, it must be Cao Jun who is in danger. .

Cao Cao nodded and said, "No matter how powerful the Xuzhou army is, our army cannot fail in this battle."

Cheng Yu nodded resolutely. After taking refuge in Cao Cao, he faced such a situation. Cheng Yu didn't regret it in his heart. If the same situation happened to other princes, Cao Cao might not do well. In the situation in Yanzhou In a critical situation, Cao Cao was able to step forward and calm down the Yellow Turbans in Yanzhou in a short period of time, which in itself is incredible.

"Enter the city as soon as possible, don't love to fight." Cao Cao ordered.

The Qingzhou Yellow Turban cleared the way, allowing Cao Jun to break through the Xuzhou Army and enter the city.

The city gate was closed tightly, and the Xuzhou army outside the city began to clean up the battlefield.

The generals of the Cao army in the city were panic-stricken. The strength of the Xuzhou army in the battle outside the city was too strong. Facing the two-sided attack of the Cao army, they still defeated the Cao army and fled. However, the Xuzhou Army's attack this time was intentional. Even in the face of Cao Jun's two-sided attack, Cao Jun could still be defeated.

At the beginning, they followed Xu Chu and Xiahou Dun, and the generals of the Cao army still had expectations. It was precisely because of Cao Cao's outstanding performance in Yanzhou that Yanzhou came out of the crisis of Zhou Mu's death in battle. Prestige has been further improved.

Cao Cao led the soldiers of the Yanzhou Army to defeat the Xuzhou Army. Many generals still had confidence, but after they actually fought against the Xuzhou Army, what they saw was the gap between themselves and the Xuzhou Army.

Compared with Xuzhou Army, Cao Army not only has many gaps in equipment, but also in combat capability.

Whether it is the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army or the soldiers of the Yanzhou Army, they all belong to the Han Army, and they are also the Han Army. Why is there such a big gap between them?

Especially in the camp, an ordinary soldier is equipped with hundred-refined weapons, which makes the generals of Cao Jun feel embarrassed. Many generals can use refined iron to forge weapons, which is already amazing.

Faced with all this, General Cao Jun could only bear it silently, waiting for a miracle to appear.

"Feng Xiao, since Cao Cao led the troops here, he has been hiding in Gaoping City and refused to fight. Could it be that he has other purposes?" Lu Bu asked.

Guo Jia laughed and said, "Marquis Wen, Cao Cao is the most anxious person at this time. Even though Cao Cao is sticking to Gaoping, he has other purposes to delay our army, but the situation in Yanzhou is critical. Officials in Yanzhou must have their hearts fluttering."

"And Yuan Shu is leading an army of tens of thousands to attack Dingtao. Once Dingtao is breached, Cao Cao will become a bereaved dog."

Lu Bu nodded and said: "The words of filial piety are very true. If this Marquis is Cao Cao, how can I bear it."

"Marquis Wen is brave and unstoppable. Cao Cao's powerful generals are no match for Marquis Wen. The most elite troops in Yanzhou have been brought out for Cao Cao. If Cao Cao can't repel the Xuzhou army, this battle will also be a battle. It ended with Cao Cao's defeat." Guo Jia said.

Today's Cao Cao has to fight, but it's just a matter of time. Although Cao Jun did not experience a major defeat during the battle with the Xuzhou Army, the morale of the army was obviously affected. After entering Gaoping, he rested A period of time is also reasonable.

"The humble job is worried about the safety of Pengcheng." Guo Jia said.

Lu Bu's eyes tightened, "What does Feng Xiao mean by that?"

"Pengcheng is the foundation of Marquis Wen. If Pengcheng is lost, the Xuzhou army will definitely withdraw from the Yanzhou battlefield." Guo Jia said.

"Feng Xiao means that Cao Cao will plan Pengcheng?" Lv Bu asked suspiciously. Cao Cao can't even worry about Yanzhou's affairs at present, so planning Pengcheng is not a suicide attempt.

Guo Jiadao: "Cao Cao doesn't have to plan Pengcheng by himself. He can promise Pengcheng to others. For example, Yuan Shu, who is fighting Cao Jun in Dingtao, is fighting Xuzhou. If it is based on interests, once Yuan Shu is deceived by interests, he may send troops to attack Pengcheng, and at this time there are [-] elite soldiers stationed in Yuzhou."

Lu Bu frowned. He suddenly realized that what Guo Jia said had some truth. In the face of absolute interests, no allies are worth mentioning. As a prince, Lu Bu naturally understood the truth. Yuan Shu acted together because the two princes had the same goal.

Strong strength is what the princes pursue. As long as they can improve their own strength, other things are nothing to the princes, including reputation.

Just like Lu Bu, when he entered Xuzhou, he was a rebel who was shouted and beaten by everyone, but the battle increased Lu Bu's prestige among the princes. Even when Lu Bu married Mi Zhen, the princes sent envoys to Pengcheng one after another. They don't want to offend Lu Bu, and it's best to make friends with Lu Bu and ease the relationship in the past.

Chapter 158 The situation is worrying

In troubled times, big fists are the last word.

"Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou in the past, went to Yanzhou after the defeat. Now that Yanzhou is in danger, maybe Cao Cao will secretly send Tao Qian to Pengcheng." Guo Jia reminded.

After hearing this, Lu Bu was shocked. If it was really as Guo Jia said, the situation in Pengcheng would indeed be a little dangerous. Not only would there be instability among internal officials, but there would also be threats from Yuan Shu.

"What should we do?" Lu Bu asked.

Guo Jiadao: "These are just speculations from humble officials. As long as Marquis Wen can defeat Cao Cao and seize Rencheng, Dongping, and Shanyang as soon as possible, then the officials in Xuzhou will definitely love Marquis Wen. But in this way, Marquis Wen will definitely offend Yuan Shu. There is no guarantee that Yuan Shu will not attack the Xuzhou army when he is angry."

"Hmph, if Yuan Shu wants to turn against me, it depends on whether Yuan Shu has the ability." Lu Bu snorted coldly.

"There are military divisions sitting in Pengcheng, how dare Xiaoxiao people make trouble, with the wisdom of military divisions, they will definitely see these changes in the situation." Guo Jia said.

Hearing this, Lu Bu was relieved. If Pengcheng was in danger, he would have to return. Although Yanzhou was important, Pengcheng was his foundation. If Pengcheng was lost, so what if he won the battle in Yanzhou? Still have to leave in despair.

Since it is a war, it is necessary to gain benefits from it, and Lu Bu is no exception.

The soldiers of the Xuzhou Army fought on the battlefield, but they paid a high price. When fighting Cao Jun, the Xuzhou Army had the upper hand, and behind these were the sacrifices of the soldiers in the army.

Only by winning can the blood of the soldiers in the army not be shed in vain, and only then can one's own strength be strengthened.

"Defeating Cao Cao as soon as possible is the right way." Lu Bu said slowly.

Guo Jia said in a low voice: "Actually, there is no need for Marquis Wen to be anxious. Cao Cao came from Changyi, and he must not have much food and supplies. Although Gaoping is a small city, if we attack, it will still make our army pay a heavy price. You need to lead the soldiers to wait outside the city."

Lv Bu nodded slightly, agreeing with Guo Jia's statement. Cao Cao is indeed the one who is most anxious at the moment. If the Xuzhou army is only dispatched, there may be many difficulties in threatening the situation in Yanzhou, but there is still Yuan Shu in Dingtao. An army of [-] is also an important force capable of occupying Yanzhou.

Anyway, Lu Bu and Yuan Shu are allies. The trust between the two parties is definitely better than that of Cao Cao. Yuan Shu also has resourceful people. If Cao Cao sent lobbyists, wouldn't the counselors under Yuan Shu not be able to I can't see the clues.

The Xuzhou Army set up camp in Xi'an, Gaoping City. This behavior obviously did not pay attention to the Cao Army in the city. This is the main road from Gaoping to Changyi.

After Cao Cao heard the news, his complexion was not very good. The Xuzhou army made it clear that it was going to stalemate with the Yanzhou army. The delay in time would be even more unfavorable to the situation in Yanzhou. There is too much attraction for the big families.

If they could choose, these families might not hesitate to throw themselves into Yuan Shu's arms. Relying on powerful princes, it is possible to make the family more stable and grow stronger. When Cao Cao is unable to protect everything in Yanzhou At that time, the opportunity was ruthlessly abandoned by the Yanzhou family.

Cao Cao, who was born in a family, did not understand the truth, so he led the Yanzhou Army to take the initiative to attack, trying to defeat the Xuzhou Army and ease Yanzhou's crisis. Who knows that the war has evolved to the current situation. Taking advantage of his body, he lost a lot of troops.

Judging from the performance of the soldiers in the army, it is absolutely impossible to win the decisive battle with the Xuzhou army.

Xuzhou's army is too elite, at least in the current view of Cao Cao. The camps and cavalry are all elite soldiers on the battlefield. Cao's army did not stop the elite of the two teams.

"The situation is worrisome." Cao Cao had to admit this. Lu Bu and Yuan Shu came aggressively and did not give him more time to prepare.

Cheng Yu said: "My lord, the Xuzhou army keeps fighting outside the city. If our army refuses to fight, the morale of the army will plummet."

Cao Cao pondered for a moment and said, "Lü Bu is a powerful general in this world, so could it be that there are no strong generals under my command?"

Hearing this, the generals in the army showed excitement. They knew that Cao Cao was about to attack. Anyone who suppressed and fought for the enemy would not be in a good mood. Many fierce generals.

In the past two days, it was Lu Bu who often appeared outside Gaoping City. Under Cao Cao's tent, there were such fierce generals as Xu Chu, Dian Wei, and Xiahou Dun. Their strength should not be underestimated. will have a small impact.

Cao Cao was depressed, and how could Lu Bu be in a good mood? Cao Cao led the most elite soldiers of the Yanzhou Army to block the Xuzhou Army, making it difficult for the Xuzhou Army to make a bigger breakthrough on the battlefield. If they attacked the city, Lu Bu would definitely not do so.

The Xuzhou army is more elite than the Yanzhou army. If the two armies confront each other head-on, Lu Bu has absolute confidence to win, but it is different when he is eager to attack the city. With the city as a support, if he wants to break through Gaoping, he must pay a heavy price. Xuzhou What the army was facing was not only Cao's army, but also Yuan Shu's army. Once the Xuzhou army suffered serious losses, how could Yuan Shu let go of this opportunity.

The cooperation between the two parties is based on Lu Bu's strong strength.

The cavalry under his command stepped forward and scolded, and even dug out Cao Cao's [-]th generation of ancestors to scold. There is no shortage of talents in the army, and the same is true in scolding. It is also endless.

The soldiers of the Cao army in the city were gnashing their teeth with hatred, but they had no way out. Without Cao Cao's order, anyone who went to battle would be violating military discipline. Besides, after seeing the strength of the Xuzhou army, how could they leave the city easily.

With the breeze blowing, the "Lu" flag flutters in the wind, which belongs to Lu Bu.

The gate of the city was opened wide, and Cao Cao led two thousand soldiers out of the city.

The defenders on the city were excited when they heard about this incident, and their own army was finally about to make a move. They were expecting the soldiers in the army to defeat the arrogant Xuzhou army.

"I thought that Cao Mengde was willing to guard Gaoping City like a tortoise." Lu Bu laughed.

"Lü Bu'an dares to be so rampant!" Xu Chu was furious when he heard the words, and the master humiliated his ministers to death. Although he had not been in Cao Cao for a short time, these reasons are still clear.

Chapter 159 Marquis Wen captures Xu Chu

Seeing Xu Chu's horse attacking, Lu Bu immediately stepped forward. Xu Chu's force depends on who he is facing. After the previous confrontation, Lu Bu has already understood Xu Chu's moves. Lu Bu was confident that he would kill Xu Chu within fifty rounds.

The red rabbit galloped forward, and Fang Tian raised his painted halberd high.

The halberd was as fast as a shooting star, and it struck Xu Chu's head. A faint red light radiated from the crescent halberd.

The speed of this blow made Xu Chu more vigilant. With his eyesight, he could barely see the trajectory of the halberd clearly. If an ordinary general encountered Lu Bu's move, he would probably die before he could react to it. under the halberd.

Facing the brave Lu Bu and Xu Chu who shot angrily, he maintained a high degree of vigilance.

With a violent shout, the long knife faced the painted halberd.

A little bit of sparks splashed, Xu Chu's complexion changed slightly, the force from the halberd made his arms slightly numb, but Lu Bu was not affected by the shock, the halberd changed its moves, and came again.

Fighting against Lu Bu is a huge challenge for any general. Fang Tian's painted halberd is a spear-like weapon, but the Fang Tian's painted halberd in Lu Bu's hand is not light in weight. In addition, the red rabbit horse that Lu Bu sat on , so that Lu Bu's force can be brought into full play to the greatest extent.

Such a brave general, no one will be frightened when he sees him.

Painting the halberd is an ethereal move, every move contains [-]% of Lu Bu's strength, Xu Chu only has the power to defend.

Seeing this scene, Cao Cao nodded slightly to Xiahou Dun. With Xu Chu alone, there would be a lot of risk in fighting Lu Bu. Besides, it is normal to use two generals to fight Lu Bu. Hulaoguan dug , There is also the matter of the Sanying war against Lu Bu.

Lu Bu's martial arts have already surpassed the cognition of ordinary people. Even if he is a general-level figure, he is in danger of falling when he meets Lu Bu.

Xiahou Dun charged out, and Li Dian rode out with his horse and gun, and shouted, "Xiahou Dun, come and meet you for a while."

Seeing Li Dian fight out, Xiahou Dun was furious. Li Dian was a general under Cao Cao in the past. After he took refuge in Lu Bu, he dared to fight against him. This was too provocative, and he could not tolerate it.

Cao Cao's gaze towards Li Dian also contained a murderous intent. He admired Li Dian's ability very much. When Cao Jun was in danger, Li Dian stepped forward to fight Lu Bu. Unexpectedly, after Li Dian was captured alive by Lu Bu, He turned to work for Lu Bu.

In fact, this is also a normal thing. No one wants to die in obscurity. Under Lu Bu's command, Li Dian will have room for development, so naturally he cannot refuse.

Those who betray are unforgivable, especially when Li Dian is fighting against Lv Bu, the general of Cao Jun is the biggest provocation to Cao Cao.

When Dian Wei saw this scene, he was very impatient, but the people who fought were all horsemen. If he went up to fight with him on foot, there would definitely be a lot of problems. Besides, his greatest duty was to protect Cao Cao's safety.

Cao Hong galloped out and shouted: "Someone came to learn from Marquis Wen."

Cao Xing snorted coldly, and rode his horse out, "Is Cao Cao bullying Xuzhou's army without a general?"

It was originally a confrontation between Lu Bu and Xu Chu, but it evolved into a battle between the generals of both sides.

Cao Cao's heart tightened, and he immediately understood Lu Bu's intentions. With Lu Bu's martial arts, he could win against any general of the Cao army alone, and he might even behead the general of the Cao army. The generals of the army fought against each other, and Lu Bu was always fighting against Xu Chu alone.

Xu Chu is skilled in martial arts, but he still has some shortcomings in the battle against Lu Bu. If such a fierce general falls on the battlefield, it will be a big blow to Cao Jun.

Cao Chun received Cao Cao's hint, and immediately stepped forward to help Xu Chu. Seeing this, Wu Dun immediately stepped forward to block Cao Chun.

The situation has evolved to such a point that the soldiers on both sides are staring at the battlefield intently. Normally, it is rare to see fierce generals fighting, especially the life-and-death battle between two generals. little help.
