In the coalition camp, those who were putting on armor were putting on armor, those who were looking for weapons were looking for weapons, those who were looking for organization were looking for organization, countless soldiers were running around, and countless generals were roaring and giving orders.

This was the scene Lu Bu saw when he rushed over with 500 light cavalry. He couldn't help but curl up a sarcastic smile on the corner of his lips. This group of people was just as he saw in his dream, with no discipline. They were so scared that they broke out of camp before he even broke in.

Looking at the chaotic mess of soldiers, Cao Cao's expression lost its composure. He seemed to have forgotten that the coalition forces were numerous, but without a unified command, a unified order, how could they resist the enemy? Who would they assign to do so? Moreover, half of these soldiers were newly recruited, and the other half were inexperienced county troops. How could they compare to Lü Bu's border troops, who crisscrossed the border?

The sound of trumpets rang out in the military camp. The soldiers didn't know which side to follow. In a panic, they saw a hurricane sweeping a sky full of yellow earth towards them.

The giant deer horses at the camp gate were quickly defeated, and the newly erected gate of the camp was broken open. Five hundred cavalrymen rushed into the camp, slashing indiscriminately with their swords. The hundreds of coalition troops that had just been organized in a panic at the camp gate were instantly dispersed. The war horses trampled on each other, weapons collided, and the coalition camp was filled with screams.

The soldiers fought each other in a panic, with spearmen, broadsword soldiers, and shieldmen mixed together and crowded together, making the scene very chaotic.

The camp of 100,000 men stretched for dozens of miles. A single force couldn't destroy much in a short period of time. Lü Bu, perched on his Red Hare, took a quick look at the camp's layout and said to Zhang Liao, "You and I will split into two groups. You lead 300 men to the northeast, and I'll lead 200 to the southeast. We'll just charge and set fire along the way. There's no need to linger and fight. We'll reunite at the easternmost point and then fight our way back from the central axis."

Lu Bu's purpose was to give the coalition forces a warning, rather than hoping to slaughter the enemy's 100,000 troops with only 500 men. The advantage of cavalry is mobility, and if they stop fighting, they can easily be stopped by the enemy.

"Yes, sir!" Zhang Liao responded excitedly and rushed towards the northeast with 300 people. Lu Bu also rushed towards the southeast.

The main gate of the coalition camp faced west, and the entire camp was in the shape of a horizontal rectangle. The tents of the eight princes were distributed with three camps on the north, three on the south, and two in the middle. Cao Cao's camp was in the middle on the east side, so there was some time to organize the soldiers into battle formations.

Qiao Mao and other princes also organized their own troops to resist the enemy, but Lü Bu's two cavalry units were too fast, and the horses were like stimulants, charging around the camp like crazy. Just as the allied soldiers were about to form a battle formation, Lü Bu's cavalry would charge at them. How could these new recruits, who had little experience in battle, withstand the cavalry's charge?

Kong Jun, who was giving orders, saw Lü Bu rushing towards his tent with his halberd in hand and shouted, "Quick, stop him!"

The soldiers looked timidly at the man riding a tall horse and wearing black armor. The soldiers who tried to stop him were like rag dolls in his hands. They were knocked and thrown away one by one. Going up there would simply mean death. Who would dare to go?

Lu Bu led two hundred people and rushed into Kong Jun's camp like a sharp arrow. Lu Bu and dozens of soldiers in front were responsible for pushing away the crowd, and the soldiers behind were responsible for setting fire. Torches soaked in tung oil were lit, and tents were set on fire. The soldiers fled in panic and scrambled for their lives.

Kong Jun was both angry and frightened. Seeing that his soldiers were powerless to stop Lu Bu and his belongings were burned, he felt a sharp pain in his heart. Many tents had already caught fire. In order to avoid being burned to death, he could only order the scattered soldiers to flee outside the camp.

But in a short while, Lu Bu and his men broke into the military camps of three princes, killing from the west to the east of the camp. The tents in the south were burned into a sea of ​​fire, and as Zhang Liao's team moved forward, the fire in the north quickly extended to the east. From a distance, it looked like a winding fire dragon lying across the camp.

Seeing this formation, Cao Cao, who was in the middle of the battle line, was already livid. Cao Ren shouted, "My lord, Lü Bu's cavalry is too fast and too powerful. I'm afraid we can't stop them."

Cao Cao's veins bulged as he gripped the hilt of his sword. He said coldly, "Tell the soldiers to hold their formation. If we can capture and kill Lü Bu, Dong's army will be crushed. We can then march all the way to Luoyang and rescue the emperor."

Cao Ren looked at the trembling soldiers around him, then looked at Cao Cao with a determined face, and could only bite the bullet and continue to boost morale.

However, the entire camp was in chaos at this time. The morale could not be boosted by just a few words. When Lu Bu and Zhang Liao's troops gathered together and rushed over, the formation that Cao Cao had worked so hard to set up was like a broken dam and was instantly dispersed.

While riding his horse, Lu Bu glanced at Cao Cao who was not far away from him. A fierce look flashed in his eyes and he said to Zhang Liao, "You take the men ahead, I'll be back soon." After that, he turned his horse and rushed towards Cao Cao.

Seeing Lü Bu approaching alone, Cao Cao was both frightened and excited. He instinctively retreated while shouting, "Quickly surround and kill this official!"

What the soldiers were afraid of just now was the charge of the entire cavalry. Now that they saw that Lu Bu was alone, they became bolder and, led by Cao Ren, surrounded Lu Bu.

Lu Bu swept the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand, and in an instant, he killed dozens of people who were blocking the way. Under the illumination of the surrounding fire, the Red Hare was as red as blood, like a ball of burning flame, carrying Lu Bu to gallop among the enemy troops. The man and the horse cooperated very tacitly, and a large number of Cao Cao's troops were killed like chickens and dogs.

None of the coalition forces, including Cao Cao, had ever seen Lu Bu kill the enemy. Seeing him chopping the surrounding soldiers as if they were melons, they were all terrified. The surrounding soldiers fled, and Cao Cao also rode his horse to flee to the east.

Lu Bu pursued and killed Cao Cao all the way. Although there were occasional soldiers who tried to stop him, his Red Hare was fast and he caught up with Cao Cao in a short while. Cao Cao remembered Lu Bu's strong murderous intention towards him in Zhang Mo's room last time, and he felt like he was going to die.

"My life is over, my life is over!" Cao Cao shouted in horror.

Cao Ren, who was not far away, saw this and was so frightened that his eyes widened, but it was too late to rescue him. He could only yell at the top of his voice, "Lü Bu, you little bastard, come and kill your grandfather if you dare."

Lu Bu didn't even glance at Cao Ren. There was a knife hidden in his eyes as he looked at Cao Cao, ready to chop off his head at any time.

A cold wind blew behind his head. Cao Cao turned around and saw a dazzlingly bright weapon coming towards him. He seemed to see his head rolling to the ground and a column of blood spurting out of his neck.

"what--"

A scream shot straight from my chest to my throat, but...

Cao Cao felt his head lighten, and then he fell off his horse with a bang. He was dizzy and his hair was disheveled. He touched his head that was still on his neck, looked at the bun that fell to the ground, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead like a spring.

Lü Bu, reins in one hand and halberd in the other, looked down from above with an arrogant gaze, "Today I shave my head in exchange for my head. Our grudge is settled. We shall fight again someday!"

Taking a last look at Cao Cao, whose face was pale, eyes bulging and body trembling with fear, Lu Bu laughed and turned his horse around and left!

Cao Cao escaped death and stared blankly at Lu Bu's departing back, completely confused.

Grudge? What grudge did he have against me? If it was because of the assassination attempt on Dong Zhuo, then if he had cut off my head, it would have been a great achievement. Why did he let me go?
