Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

The setting sun reflected the sunset glow, the Ying River was dyed blood red, Cao's army scattered, and the Tang army was everywhere.

Cao Cao was surrounded by a group of guards and fled for more than ten miles, but he still could not escape the pursuit of the cavalry. The guards around him died one after another. If it were not for Dian Wei's bravery, he would have been beheaded by now.

Dian Wei knocked down a Tang soldier with his short spear, replaced his already overburdened warhorse, and barely followed the team.

In the rear, Ma Chao had caught up after killing Cao Ang and his guards. Although Dian Wei was dull, he knew that if he wanted to have a chance of survival today, he had to kill this main general first.

Seeing a forest not far away, Dian Wei simply dismounted and slashed left and right with his double halberds, clearing a bloody path for Cao Cao. After Cao Cao retreated to the forest for temporary shelter, he rode back with a dozen guards to fight Ma Chao.

"E Lai is here, do you dare to fight with me, kid?" Dian Wei fought his way back to Ma Chao's vicinity, knocked down a Tang soldier with the iron halberd in his right hand, pointed the halberd at Ma Chao with his left hand, and shouted arrogantly.

"Are you Elai Dianwei?"

Ma Chao accepted the mission to kill Cao Cao, so he naturally got to know the people around him. The one he was most concerned about was Dian Wei. According to intelligence, except for the king, perhaps no one in the world could be his opponent, especially in infantry combat. He was almost invincible in the world and could not be defeated alone.

Ma Chao's wish in recent years has been to become the commander of a military region and to be invincible in the world, becoming the second best fighter in the world. When he met Dian Wei today, he couldn't help but want to fight him, but he also remembered the warning in the intelligence, and was afraid that if he lost the fight, it would cause trouble, so he was a little hesitant.

"You are a coward, a useless person who only knows how to bully the weak with your numbers. Today, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your father."

Dian Wei didn't give Ma Chao time to think and rushed towards him on horseback. Ma Chao was young and full of vigor, so how could he withstand such a provocation? He kicked the horse's belly with his legs and charged towards him with his spear.

Dian Wei secretly gathered strength in his arms, hoping to defeat the young general with brute force.

Ma Chao knew that this rough man was extremely strong and was not willing to fight him head-on. Seeing the double halberds falling, he pulled the reins and relied on his superb riding skills to nimbly avoid the powerful attack. Dian Wei's attack missed, and the force was instantly removed, and his body almost rolled off the horse.

Before he could steady himself, a cold light flashed beside him, and the tip of Ma Chao's spear stabbed towards his left shoulder. He turned around and swung his halberd, narrowly blocking Ma Chao's attack.

Dian Wei felt that riding a horse was too inflexible, so he simply rolled off the horse, took a tiger step forward, and attacked Ma Chao with his double halberds again. Ma Chao did not fight him head-on, but either blocked from the side or avoided him, and launched a counterattack in the intervals. The two fought for more than twenty rounds, but there was no winner.

More and more cavalrymen gathered towards the woods. Dian Wei was anxious, knowing that this boy was an excellent rider and had good martial arts skills. If he allowed him to ride on his horse, he could knock his weapon off his horse with one blow, and he could also ride away. If he wanted to capture and kill this boy, he had to knock him off his horse.

Dian Wei swung his double halberds vigorously, mainly attacking Ma Chao's mount. Ma Chao was an excellent spearman and could handle it with ease. However, because each of Dian Wei's moves was quite powerful, after a few rounds, Ma Chao's knuckles began to hurt and felt a little broken.

This rough man was not only extremely strong, but also very skilled in wielding double halberds. Ma Chao knew that he could not defeat him in a one-on-one fight, so he wanted to spur his horse to retreat. After he had retreated a few steps, he suddenly felt something hitting him from behind. He subconsciously dodged to the side, and the next second a short halberd flew past him, and the blade just scraped his arm, causing blood to spurt out and he fell off his horse.

Ma Chao was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. If he had not been quick-witted, he would have lost his arm.

Dian Wei quickly caught up with Ma Chao, intending to take him down when he fell to the ground. Ma Dai, seeing this, rushed over to rescue him.

"This person is difficult to deal with, brother, retreat quickly!"

Ma Dai roared urgently and tried to block Dian Wei's short halberd with his long spear, but there was only a clang. The moment the weapons collided, the base of Ma Dai's right hand broke directly and the spear fell to the ground. Before he could come to his senses, Dian Wei hit him in the face with another halberd. Ma Dai could not dodge in time and his skull was shattered, killing him on the spot.

However, it was this block that bought Ma Chao some time. He endured the pain and jumped up from the ground, took a few steps back, and shouted, "Shoot! Kill this official! Quick!"

Realizing that things were not going well, Dian Wei casually grabbed Ma Dai's corpse and used it as a shield. The soldiers were afraid to shoot arrows for a while, so Dian Wei took the opportunity to smash the corpse at the nearest soldier and rushed towards Ma Chao. Ma Chao dared not fight him on foot at this time, and shouted as he ran, "Shoot, shoot!"

All the guards brought by Dian Wei were killed. The Tang army knights drove their horses back, and their arrows were aimed at Dian Wei in the middle.

No matter how powerful he was, Dian Wei could only die in the face of the endless stream of arrows. At the moment of falling, he looked towards the woods, his lips moved but he did not utter a word, and his huge body collapsed like a mountain.

When Ma Chao saw his brother died saving him, he was furious. He looked at the woods and almost roared as he gave the order to set fire to the forest.

Deep in the woods, Cao Cao, who had just escaped the pursuit of the cavalry, had just taken a breath when he saw thick smoke rising from all over the forest. The autumn weather was dry, and the evening wind was blowing again. Once the fire started, it would soon burn through the entire forest.

"There's no way to escape after all!"

Cao Cao sat dejectedly on the ground, completely in despair, and the few dozen people left around him also looked dejected.

"My lord, the area near Yingshui has not caught fire yet. If we can break out and escape into the water, there is still a chance of survival!" Xun You said anxiously, pointing to the southwest.

He scanned the guards and landed on a shorter man. "Have him put on your clothes and go out to distract the enemy. Once the lord emerges from the forest, jump into the river and flee to the other side. It's dark now, so the enemy might not notice."

As he spoke, he was about to untie Cao Cao's clothes, but just as he reached out his hand, he was held down. "No need. Where can you escape to?"

Cao Cao smiled bitterly, "I never thought I would suffer such a disastrous defeat one day!"

Almost all the generals around him were killed, and his eldest son was also killed by Ma Chao's spear. Dian Wei has not returned for a long time, and I am afraid he is in great danger. Can he, a commander without troops, really turn the tide even if he escapes to Runan?

Cao Cao no longer had any desire to resist at this point. He just wanted to end everything quickly and have a good sleep.

"As long as the green mountains remain..."

Xun You was about to try to persuade him, but Cao Cao interrupted him, "Gongda, there's no need to say more. I've made up my mind!"

He stood up by holding the tree trunk, patted the dead leaves on his clothes, and strode out of the woods, as if he was ready to die bravely. Xun You followed behind him, wanting to say something but hesitantly, but in the end he did not say the word of surrender.

Cao Cao gave up resistance, and the soldiers outside the forest stopped moving their swords. One soldier went to call Ma Chao over, and the first thing Cao Cao said when he saw him was, "Take me to see Lü Fengxian!"
