Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

Chapter 176: The King of Horse Fighting vs. the King of Foot Fighting

To the west of Cao Cao's camp was Zhang Miao's tent. At this time, Dian Wei, the flag bearer under Zhang Miao, was leading his men to block Zhang Liao and others who had advanced ahead.

But then he saw a black-faced man as strong as an iron tower standing in the middle of the road, holding a halberd in both hands and a golden sword. The man was eight feet tall, with a big waist and round shoulders. His face was covered with lumps of flesh, a pair of tiger eyes as big as copper bells, and a short beard like barbs on half of his face. His face looked extremely ferocious and terrifying.

Although Lu Bu was cruel when killing people, he had a handsome face and a well-proportioned physique. When he was not killing people, he did not look scary at all. However, just by standing there quietly, he could scare people half to death.

Dian Wei brandished two large double halberds weighing eighty kilograms in his hands, which looked as easy as wielding wooden sticks, but the killing power was extremely shocking. All the war horses hit by him had their brains burst and died instantly. At this moment, there were more than ten horse corpses piled around him, and the owners of these horses were also dismembered by him or had some parts of their bodies smashed by him.

Zhang Miao's soldiers, who had been dispersed by Zhang Liao and others before, were inspired by Dian Wei's bravery and surrounded him to intercept the more than one hundred cavalrymen who were left behind.

Lu Bu dared to bring such a small number of cavalry to attack the camp because he relied on the cavalry's fast speed. However, the coalition forces had inconsistent orders and the troops were scattered, making it difficult to organize a decent resistance. Now, the speed of these more than one hundred cavalrymen was slowed down, and the light cavalry lost all mobility. In just a short while, dozens of them were killed.

Zhang Liao, who was at the front of the team and about to leave the camp gate, saw that the rear team was stopped, so he quickly turned his horse around and came back to rescue them.

Zhang Liao swung the crescent silver halberd in his hand left and right, slashing as fast as lightning, and soon a gap was opened in the wall of soldiers blocking the front.

Seeing that the black-faced strong man in the middle of the road was difficult to deal with, Zhang Liao rushed into the blockade and attacked Dian Wei. He knew that this strong man was very strong and was the strongest person he had ever seen except Fengxian, so Zhang Liao did not rush up to compete with Dian Wei in brute force. Instead, he relied on flexible moves to move around and assassinate him. Dian Wei was huge in physique and far less flexible than Zhang Liao. In addition, the short spear in his hand was not long enough, so he could not do anything to Zhang Liao for a while.

After fighting for a while, Dian Wei saw that his soldiers were about to be killed again, and he was secretly anxious. He roared, picked up a soldier's body with his double halberds and smashed it towards Zhang Liao. The two were very close, and Zhang Liao could not dodge in time and was knocked off his horse. Dian Wei swung his halberd and chopped around, and the three or four riders blocking his front were also killed. Dian Wei stepped towards Zhang Liao again with a tiger step.

Zhang Liao, unconcerned with the pain, leaped to his feet, thrusting his halberd to block. With a clang, the crescent-shaped silver halberd in his hand fell to the ground, his arms numb and aching as if struck by an electric current. Dian Wei gave Zhang Liao no time to recover, striking him in the face with his halberd. Zhang Liao rolled rapidly on the ground, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow.

Seeing this, the surrounding cavalry rushed over to rescue Zhang Liao. However, Dian Wei was born with great strength, and ordinary soldiers could not stop him at all.

Later, after Lu Bu had finished playing a trick on Cao Cao, he rode up on horseback and caught up with him. He was shocked and angry to see Zhang Liao being chased and killed by a big man with a black face.

"Step aside!"

Lu Bu roared angrily and squeezed his legs against the horse's belly. Red Hare suddenly accelerated and rushed into the battlefield like a fireball.

"Ding--"

With a crisp sound, Dian Wei's short spear that was aimed at Zhang Liao was blocked by Lu Bu's long spear.

"Hey, not bad!" Dian Wei's eyes, like copper bells, lit up slightly. He lifted up Lu Bu's long spear with his right hand, and then chopped down with the short spear in his left hand.

Lu Bu quickly withdrew his halberd to block, and there was another crisp sound. The two weapons collided again, splashing sparks.

"He's really powerful!" Lu Bu narrowed his eyes slightly. This man's strength is even stronger than his before the strengthening. No wonder Wen Yuan was beaten by him and lost his weapon.

Seeing that he could not kill Lu Bu with one hand, Dian Wei shouted loudly, put all his strength into his arms, and chopped down with two short spears. Lu Bu did not avoid it, but met it head-on again.

"Boom-"

A deafening roar made the eardrums of the people nearby buzz. Both Lu Bu's cavalry and Dian Wei's infantry subconsciously stepped back for fear of being affected.

Lu Bu had just used almost all his strength before the attack, and felt a slight numbness in his arms, but it did not affect the subsequent fight at all. He began to turn defense into offense, and his hands moved faster and faster, slashing and stabbing, and his Fang Tian Hua Ji found a gap to attack Dian Wei.

Although Dian Wei was not as fast as Lu Bu, he was very skilled in using the double halberds. He could attack left and block right, and although it was a bit difficult to deal with, he could still hold on.

Lu Bu did not want to use superhuman strength. Seeing that he could not defeat the barbarian in a static state, he drove Red Hare to circle around Dian Wei. Dian Wei wanted to use the corpse again to knock Lu Bu off his horse, but Lu Bu was much stronger than Zhang Liao, and he could knock him down even if he could not dodge.

Dian Wei tried several times but found that this method was not feasible, so he could only quickly follow Lu Bu's mount and continue fighting. Lu Bu was a very good rider, and he led Dian Wei left and right, forward and backward. Although Dian Wei was standing on the ground, he was not as flexible as Lu Bu on horseback. The two fought for dozens of rounds, and Dian Wei was stabbed in the shoulder by Lu Bu's halberd without paying attention.

"Dian Wei, retreat quickly!"

From a distance, Zhang Miao saw that Dian Wei was defeated and was afraid that he would die at the hands of Lu Bu, so he shouted anxiously.

Lü Bu glanced in Zhang Miao's direction, then glanced at the large banners standing nearby. He had a vague idea of ​​who this person was. In his dream, Zhang Miao and Chen Gong had welcomed him as governor of Yanzhou. Later, he was defeated by Cao Cao at Juye, and Zhang Miao had fled east with him to Liu Bei. On his way to seek reinforcements from Yuan Shu, he was killed by his own men. So, he could be considered an old acquaintance.

Dian Wei knew that he could not beat Lu Bu. After fighting for such a long time, the other party was not even red in the face or out of breath, while his strength was obviously not as good as before. Taking advantage of the moment when Lu Bu was looking at him, he ran away.

It has to be said that although Dian Wei is a big guy, he runs quite fast. In just a short while, he has already walked dozens of steps away.

Lu Bu gave Zhang Miao face and did not pursue him anymore. He took the remaining 400 cavalrymen and rushed out of the allied base camp through the east gate. The 500 people came and went quickly.

Outside the coalition camp, Qiao Mao and others, covered in dust, watched Lu Bu's troops leaving in a cloud of dust, and then looked at the camp that was burning more and more fiercely. They really didn't know what words to use to describe their feelings at the moment.

Humiliation, anger, helplessness...

A camp of 100,000 people was destroyed by 500 people. Although there were not many casualties among the soldiers, most of the supplies in the camp were burned. How could this battle be fought?

"Alas, I think we should retreat! The Xiliang army is so brave, we are no match for them at all." Kong Jun said dejectedly.

"That Lü Bu is truly invincible. I heard long ago that he broke through two Qiang armies at Wangyuan, but I didn't believe it then. But today, I saw him charging into our camp like a tiger among a flock of sheep, and I know the rumors are true. With him around, what's the point of fighting?"

"Can't retreat!"

Seeing that everyone's fighting spirit had been completely lost, Cao Cao emerged from the crowd with his hair loose. "If we retreat now, we, the heroes of Guandong, will lose all our reputation. If we are forced to retreat by 500 men, how will the world laugh at us in the future?"

"Haha, if we don't withdraw our troops even though our camp was burned down by 500 people, we will still be laughed at." Kong Jun said.

Cao Cao said coldly, "Therefore, we cannot retreat. Only by winning this battle can we avenge today's humiliation. I intend to immediately organize our supplies and troops. While Lü Bu thinks we are discouraged, I will send a surprise attack on Xingyang."

"A surprise attack on Xingyang?" asked Zhang Miao.

"Yes, we should give him a taste of his own medicine. Lu Bu would never have expected that we would dare to send out troops right after our main camp was destroyed. The defenses in Xingyang must be lax, and we may be able to defeat them in one blow." Cao Cao stared at everyone with burning eyes.

Everyone thought about it and realized that this was the truth. If they couldn't turn the situation around, this humiliation would follow them for the rest of their lives. Everyone was a person who cared about face, so they immediately agreed to Cao Cao's proposal and went to integrate their troops and supplies.

After being provoked by Lu Bu, the allied forces' determination to fight against Dong Zhuo became even stronger than at the beginning.
