The Rebirth of Lu Bu in the Legend of the Heroes of the Later Han Dynasty

The Bingzhou Army galloped all the way, and it took only three days to enter Youzhou. As in previous battles, the Bingzhou Army still did no harm to the Han people, but the Wuhuan people in Youzhou suffered, and the men were massacred. , women and horses were plundered, and a mighty army of 10,000 cavalry entered the borders of Zhuojun.

When Liu Bei, who was eating, heard that Lu Bu's army had entered Zhuojun's territory, he panicked and broke his bowl. His wife, Gan Qian, had never seen Liu Bei in such a predicament before. She complained a few words and swept up the debris on the ground. Zhang Fei came in excitedly, arriving before anyone else, "Brother, Lu Bu is here, this time I want to avenge Hulao Pass!"

"This matter still needs to be discussed with Yunchang. Where is your second brother?" Liu Bei asked.

"Second brother has led troops to station ten miles outside the city to resist the Bingzhou army. Let's go out too, brother." Zhang Fei said.

"Since Yun Chang has gone ahead, we must seize the time. Third brother, you go and gather the remaining troops in the city, and I will call on the nobles to send out troops. We will gather at the city gate in two hours." Liu Bei said as he changed clothes.

As the vanguard of the Bingzhou Army, Zhang Liao encountered no major obstacles along the way until Guan Yu appeared. When Guan Yu saw that the weapon Zhang Liao was holding was the Qinglong Yanyue Sword that he had left on the battlefield at Hulao Pass, he immediately became angry and immediately attacked Zhang Liao. When Zhang Liao saw the man coming with a red face and long beard, he knew it was Guan Yu and did not dare to take it lightly. This was because before sending troops, Lu Bu described the appearance of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to everyone and asked them to be careful.

Guan Yu was facing him with a sword, whistling with the sound of wind. Zhang Liao raised the Qinglong Yanyue Sword to fight back. When the two swords touched each other, sparks flew everywhere. In terms of strength, Guan Yu had the upper hand, but Zhang Liao's weapon was superior at this time. One thing was going down, the other was going down, and it was actually a tie.

"Good fellow, look at my second sword!" Guan Yu slashed from top to bottom, Zhang Liao raised his sword to block, it was so powerful that Zhang Liao's horse couldn't bear the impact, and it knelt down. Fortunately, Zhang Liao had a saddle to hold it in place. To prevent his body from falling, he pulled the horse, and the horse stood up again under the force.

Guan Yu then used a third sword to chop off the lower abdomen. Zhang Liao reacted quickly and dodged the blow by lying down. Guan Yu practiced these three swords every day since Hulao Pass, and he had to chop down a hundred trees a day. He thought that even Lu Bu would struggle with his sword skills, but he never thought that when he faced the unknown Zhang Liao today, he would be able to cut down a hundred trees. He was never killed. It seemed that he could only use that move. Guan Yu turned his horse's head, pretending to be defeated and retreating, while dragging the knife to the ground with his other hand.

Zhang Liao did not doubt that he was cheating, so he chased after him. When the distance between the two was less than a horse, Guan Yu suddenly lifted the knife from the ground and was about to slash at Zhang Liao. Seeing that the famous general Zhang Liao was about to fall, it was too late. Quickly, a powerful arrow flew from a distance and hit Guan Yu's arm that was holding the sword. Guan Yu felt pain, screamed and fell off his horse. Guan Yu closed his eyes and did not get up from the ground, "Kill me, I will not surrender."

"Wenyuan must not do anything." Lu Bu's voice came from behind, "Guan Yunchang, a loyal and righteous man, should not die like this. Let him go back."

After Zhang Liao heard this, he put away the knife he wanted to chop down and rode towards the formation, leaving only Guan Yu's inexplicable figure behind.

"Thank you general for not killing me. Guan will take it." Guan Yu clasped his hands in his fists.

"Yun Chang will go back and persuade your third brother to return the horses that were snatched last time and compensate our army for the food and wages for this expedition. I will return to Bingzhou." Lu Bu said on the horse.

"My third brother was reckless and mistakenly robbed the general's horse. Guan Yu will make amends on his behalf again. I will definitely report to the elder brother when I return to the city so that he can be disciplined. As for the conditions proposed by the general, I agree to you on behalf of the elder brother. General, wait a moment, a After an hour, I will give an explanation to the general." After that, Guan Yu saluted and withdrew his troops and returned to the city.

Zhang Liao came to Lu Bu and said, "Thank you general for saving my life. Without your arrow, my life would have been at stake here today."

Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "Wen Yuan thanked the wrong person. I didn't shoot the arrow just now, it was him." After speaking, he pointed to Cao Xing next to him.

Zhang Liao quickly saluted Cao Xing and said, "Thank you, General Cao, for saving your life. I am afraid that the power of your arrow can be surpassed by only the general in the Bingzhou army."

Cao Xing was a little embarrassed and touched his head, "We are all brothers in life and death. You're welcome, General Wenyuan."

Guan Yu returned to the city. At this time, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei had just gathered their troops and were about to leave the city. Seeing that Guan Yu was wounded, they asked what happened.

Guan Yu sighed, "Brother, the third brother got into trouble this time. The horses he robbed did not belong to the barbarian caravan at all, but to Lu Bu's horses. This time he came to raise an army to punish us. Not only did he want us to return the horses, but also We must compensate them for their losses this time. Third brother, third brother, why are you so reckless and offended people who shouldn't be offended."

After hearing this, Liu Bei also blamed Zhang Fei and asked him to hand over the horses. Zhang Fei was not happy. "Big brother, second brother, don't let other people's ambitions destroy your own prestige. On our territory, what are you afraid of? Let me, Lao Zhang, poke ten thousand transparent holes in him."

After saying this, he ignored Liu Bei and Guan Yu's dissuasion and rushed out of the city alone, heading straight for Lu Bu's army.
