Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

Chapter 185: Conversation outside the toilet

hut.

Zhang Mo stood inside pinching her nose, and Zhang Fei stood outside pinching his nose, and the two whispered across a straw mat curtain.

"Brother Zhang San, save me!"

"Why are you here?"

Zhang Mo recounted her story of how she had infiltrated Yuan Shao's camp, though she concealed some secrets. Zhang Fei was deeply impressed. "How could you have tricked Yuan Shao into trusting you so much?"

"Now is not the time to talk about this. Cao Cao is just an old pervert. He knows my identity. Do you have any way to get me out of the barracks?"

Zhang Fei glanced at the two soldiers not far away and whispered, "As long as we can get rid of Cao Mengde, it won't be difficult to get you out of the camp."

"That guy is extremely suspicious. He might not believe everything I just said. It will be difficult to escape his surveillance..."

Zhang Fei said, "Then wait until the battle with Lü Bu begins, and then I'll find a chance to help you escape."

Zhang Mo was silent for a moment, then a voice came from the toilet again, "Third brother, are you really here to attack Lu Bu?"

"What else? You've come all this way to play!"

"Where did you get your troops?"

"After we left Luoyang, we went to seek refuge with Gongsun Bogui. He is also a disciple of Mr. Lu and has a very good relationship with Big Brother. However, he is busy fighting the Hu people in the north and has no time to come. This time, I asked Big Brother to attend the alliance on his behalf."

Zhang Mo was silent again, then hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Third brother... last time I ran into Lü Bu on the streets of Luoyang, you... should know our relationship. He's different from the thief Dong. If we meet on the battlefield someday, I hope you won't become real enemies..."

"So, are you here to help him or the coalition forces?"

"It's not only helping him, but also helping the coalition forces! I was involved in Niu Fu's death."

Zhang Fei didn't understand. He frowned and thought about it, but still didn't understand. Then he heard Zhang Mo say, "Besides, you can't beat Lu Bu..."

Even if Lu Bu didn't cheat, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei could only tie with him. But now Lu Bu's fighting power is already at an incredible level. Not to mention one Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, even ten Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are no match for him.

The Guandong coalition forces have already deployed in front of Sishui Pass. Zhang Mo can't help but worry that a scene of three heroes fighting Lu Bu will be staged. Both sides are her own people, and Zhang Mo doesn't want to see either side get hurt.

Zhang Mo's kind reminder only aroused Zhang Fei's aggressive nature, but he shrugged it off and said, "Last time in Luoyang, I wanted to spar with him. If I get the chance this time, I'll definitely have a good fight."

"You really can't beat him..."

Zhang Fei said, "We'll know whether we can win or not only by trying."

Well, this guy was going to get beaten up, and Zhang Mo couldn't stop him. Luckily, Lü Bu had met Zhang Fei before, so for her sake, he probably wouldn't kill him, right?! It was just that... Lü Bu in the dream seemed to really hate Zhang Fei. Even if he didn't kill him, he'd probably poke a few bloody holes in him before he'd stop.

You still have to find a chance to escape back!

By the time Zhang Mo finished defecating and returned to the military tent, Yuan Shao and others had already finished their discussion. Finally, under the leadership of Alliance Leader Yuan, a group of princes who were reluctant to contribute finally decided to go to Sishui Pass for a battle five days later.

On the fifth day, 5,000 vanguards and 50,000 main forces gathered from various teams, along with ladders, battering rams, and catapults, lined up in a row and headed towards Sishui Pass in Chenggao County.

Lu Bu had been thinking about finding trouble with this coalition army these days, but these people were scared by his defeat last time. After occupying Xingyang, all the supplies were stored in the city, and the camp stationed outside was guarded like an iron barrel. Lu Bu had no way to break into the camp like last time, so he had to remain in a stalemate. Today, they took the initiative to send troops, and Lu Bu immediately asked Zhang Liao to gather 2,000 cavalry to deal with the 5,000 vanguard of the coalition army first. He himself followed with 2,000 cavalry and 3,000 infantry, leaving Cao Xing to guard Sishui Pass.

Xingyang was not far from Chenggao. In less than an hour, the vanguards of both sides met halfway.

The vanguard general on Yuan Shao's side was Pan Feng. His team consisted of one thousand cavalry and four thousand infantry. Before the encounter, Pan Feng had ordered the infantry to stop forming a battle formation. However, the Bingzhou cavalry was too fast, and Zhang Liao had already rushed up with his men before the battle formation was completed.

Zhang Liao took the lead, with the Bingzhou cavalry following closely on his left and right, shouting. Wherever the horses passed, dust mixed with blood mist blurred everyone's vision. In the distance, it was no longer possible to see how the knights drew their swords. Once this black-armored team entered the enemy camp, it was like a dragon entering the sea, clearing a bloody path through the dense waves of the coalition forces. The coalition vanguard could not withstand this torrent at all, and countless people were killed and wounded in a short time.

Seeing that his troops were defeated in a short time, Pan Feng rushed towards Zhang Liao, waving the axe in his hand. He chopped left and right, killing several Bingzhou cavalrymen in a row.

In the battle formation, Zhang Liao glanced at Pan Feng and rode his horse to meet him.

"Boom-"

The halberd and axe collided, and after a crisp sound, both of them took a half step back. Zhang Liao twisted his slightly numb arm, squeezed his legs against the horse's belly and charged forward again. Pan Feng was not willing to be left behind. He swung his axe to deflect Zhang Liao's halberd blade and then chopped it diagonally. Zhang Liao leaned back to avoid it and stretched out his right hand. The sharp blade of the silver halberd stabbed at Pan Feng's leg as fast as a snake's tongue. Pan Feng had just made a move and had no time to retaliate, and a bloody hole was pierced in his thigh.

Zhang Liao did not give him a chance to breathe. The silver halberd that Pan Feng had just forced back slashed towards him again. Pan Feng only heard a cracking sound, and his head was gone.

The main general was killed, and the vanguard soldiers composed of troops from all sides instantly collapsed and fled. Zhang Liao saw that the siege equipment team behind the vanguard was not far away, so he rested for a while and led his men to destroy the siege equipment.

Yuan Shao knew that Dong Zhuo's cavalry was powerful, so he started to take precautions behind when the vanguard started fighting. When Zhang Liao's cavalry rushed over, he saw two teams of archers on both sides of the catapults following the vanguard.

Zhang Liao's cavalry charge was long and exposed to a wide range of attacks. Although the soldiers wore fish-scale armor, their horses were unarmored. If the enemy archers surrounded them from both sides, there would inevitably be heavy casualties.

Although Zhang Liao knew this, the horses were running too fast at that time and everyone was rushing forward, making it difficult to turn back. He had no choice but to blow the horn and order the thousand cavalrymen left behind to attack the archery formation to the left and right.

When the first round of arrows rained down, the personal guards raised their shields and stepped forward to block the commander in the middle. The sound of arrows piercing the flesh was accompanied by the screams of soldiers and the neighing of horses. Hundreds of cavalrymen on the periphery had been hit by arrows.

The cavalry were only equipped with circular shields with limited protection area. The second round of arrow rain soon came, and nearly a hundred cavalrymen in the front fell. The Bingzhou cavalry, which had just charged into the 5,000-strong vanguard without any casualties, suddenly lost more than 200 of their number.

"Rush over quickly and kill the crossbowmen."

In this situation, the only way to reduce casualties is to move forward faster. Zhang Liao quickly pulled the horse's buttocks, and the horse rushed towards the enemy formation like lightning.

The cavalry arrived in an instant within the range of an arrow. After three rounds of arrow rain, Zhang Liao's remaining 1,600-odd cavalry had already rushed into the enemy formation from the left, center, and right.

The crossbowmen had no resistance at all against the cavalry at close range and could only be slaughtered. Yuan Shao had ordered the cavalry in the rear to be on standby when the archers went out. Now that he saw that the two sides were at the border, he urgently ordered the cavalry to go to the rescue.

Zhang Liao took a moment to look into the distance and saw the enemy cavalry coming over. After they killed the archers, they personally led dozens of cavalry to destroy the catapults.

The coalition forces delayed attacking the city during this period of preparation, not only to gather the vanguard, but also to reduce casualties among their own soldiers. Everyone brainstormed and anticipated possible situations on the battlefield. How could they let Zhang Liao destroy the catapult so easily?
