Lu Bu scanned the Golden Eagle Guards and saw the burly man at the head. Although his face was not clear, his physique was very familiar to him. A smile curved his lips and he said, "This caravan belongs to Amo's men."

Zhang Liao suddenly realized, "You trained your troops, no wonder!"

"It's not all my fault," Lü Bu said, spurring his horse forward and shouting, "Zhongkang, it's me!"

Xu Chu had just seen Lu Bu, but he didn't want to recognize him. He was afraid that he would attack him in a fit of rage, even though he would not be able to win.

Seeing that Lu Bu recognized him, Xu Chu couldn't pretend not to see him. He rode over and clasped his fists, "General Lu!"

Hearing Xu Chu addressing him so bluntly, Lu Bu's face suddenly turned unhappy, but he was relieved in a moment. Xu Chu's reaction showed that he was very loyal to Amo.

"Where are you going? Why are you running to the north?" Lu Bu pretended not to notice Xu Chu's indifference and asked while looking at the team in front.

Xu Chu snorted, "Men are unreliable. Amo can only rely on herself. We are going to the north to exchange for war horses."

Originally, he was just angry about Lu Bu's betrayal, but when he heard Meixiang say that Amo cried alone in the room that night, in addition to being angry, he also felt a lot of disgust towards Lu Bu, a man who did not keep his promise and tried to climb up the social ladder.

Lu Bu's face froze again. He wanted to explain, but then he thought that Xu Chu was a straightforward person and the matter could not be explained in a few words. So he let it go. As long as A Mo could understand, it would be fine.

He then asked, "What does she want a warhorse for?"

"What else can I do? I just have to protect myself!"

Self-protection again? Lu Bu looked at the hundreds of soldiers behind Xu Chu. Almost all of them were strangers. They were not the ones he had trained in the earth building. Where did A Mo get so many useful people?

Seeing that this group could easily kill a thousand Hu people, no less powerful than those in the Tulou, with so many soldiers and horses, it was more than enough for self-defense. Why did she need to buy war horses? Even if she wanted to form a cavalry, she already had 700 or 800 war horses. Isn't that enough?

Lu Bu became more and more suspicious. He always felt that Amo was not gathering so many soldiers for self-protection, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out what she was trying to do.

Lu Bu said, "The border is in turmoil. Although you are brave, your numbers are few. It is best to return!"

"Don't worry about it, we are confident."

Xu Chu replied calmly, turning his horse around and saying, "General Lu, if there's nothing else, we'll take our leave!"

After the battle the day before, Xu Chu had a general understanding of the fighting power of the Hu people. As long as he did not encounter a large army of thousands of people, he would not worry. Now every member of the Golden Eagle Guard had a war horse, and he sent out many scouts along the way. If he really encountered a large group, he could completely avoid it.

Wei Xu saw Xu Chu and the others leave like that, so he stepped forward and asked, "Brother-in-law, didn't you explain to him?"

Lu Bu was speechless. "What's there to explain? Am I supposed to tell everyone I didn't sleep with Dong Qing and that I'm innocent?"

Wei Xu sweatdropped, "Then at least tell him that Amo has forgiven you!"

"He'll know when he gets back, so why waste time talking to him?"

As Lü Bu rode back to the troop, Zhang Liao asked, "Brother, how long can you stay this time to pay respects to our ancestors? If you have more time, why not stay longer in Yanmen? You can help me train my cavalry and teach me some combat techniques. Seeing how brave Amo's men were today, I feel I'm still far behind."

He had also fought against the Hu people several times in Bingzhou in the past six months. Unless the numbers were equal, if he was outnumbered, the casualties could never be controlled within forty. Yesterday, when he heard the scouts report on the battle situation of Xu Chu and others, he was really shocked.

Lu Bu originally returned to Bingzhou to delay his wedding, and since nothing was happening on Dong Zhuo's side, there was no reason for him not to respond.

Moreover, he might be able to find a few more old friends in the Bingzhou army.

Lu Bu consoled him, "Wenyuan, don't underestimate yourself. You're still young and haven't led troops for long. A few more battles against the Hu people will teach you the ropes. As for Amo, while she's never fought in a battle, she's well-versed in military tactics. I've taught her a lot about cavalry tactics before, and she's full of clever ideas, so it's no surprise she's achieved such a feat. I'll return to Jiuyuan to pay respects to my parents, then I'll join your army for a while. We can discuss this further."

Zhang Liao was overjoyed upon hearing this and bowed, saying, "Thank you very much, brother. If it weren't for my military duties, I would accompany you to pay my respects to my father and mother."

"It's enough that you have this heart!"

Lü Bu raised the reins and said, "We have reached Dingxiang now. I will not return with you. I will come to Yanmen to find you in about half a month."

Zhang Liao clasped his fists and said, "Alright! Take care on your journey, brother!"

Lu Bu nodded, and took Wei Xu to follow Xu Chu's team from a distance, heading towards Dingxiang.

On the way, Wei Xu wondered, "Brother-in-law, why should we follow them?"

Lu Bu was worried about Xu Chu and the others, but he said, "This section is on the way anyway. I want to see how these people fight against the Hu people. They have such low casualties."

Xu Chu knew that Lu Bu and the other two were following behind, but he ignored him. After the team had been walking for two days, they encountered another group of Hu people in Jiling County, Yunzhong Commandery. This time, the other side had only seven or eight hundred people. Xu Chu set up a battle formation along the river and once again easily wiped out this group of people.

Lu Bu, who was watching the battle from a distance, was greatly surprised to see this. There was nothing strange about the battle formation, as he knew that the weapons forged by Master Guo were extremely sharp. The main thing was these archers. Looking at the shooting range, almost every arrow was nearly two hundred steps away. He could only shoot this far with a three-stone bow, but Amo actually pulled out hundreds of such sharpshooters at once?

This was because Lu Bu was far away, and there were vehicles protecting the longbowmen, so he didn't focus on the bows. Otherwise, based on his understanding of bows, he would definitely be able to see the clues.

Wei Xu was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth. "No wonder, no wonder! They have such a group of powerful archers. No wonder they dared to come to the border and cause trouble. Although their accuracy may not be good, their strength can rival yours, brother-in-law."

Lu Bu nodded. "Amo's troops are skilled in martial arts and have ample combat experience. However, their cavalry coordination and riding skills are not yet sophisticated. However, with a few more battles against the Hu people, these skills will be perfected. They are truly the elite of the elite. If we could form a force of several thousand of them, with the coordination of heavy and light cavalry and skilled archers, we would be an invincible force."

Wei continued, "Amo has always been very capable. Do you think she has a training method to quickly increase the strength of her soldiers?"

Lu Bu laughed and said, "Do you think training strength is that simple? If that were the case, why wouldn't she just train on her own? Why would she need to squat and run through the wilderness with sandbags every day?"

"That's right. Without the help of an immortal, who could be as powerful as you, brother-in-law?"

At this point, Wei Xu's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly, "Do you think she's received some guidance from an immortal recently? Otherwise, how could she have produced so many powerful archers all at once?"

Wei Xu hadn't mentioned immortals in a long time since his last scolding by Lü Bu in the woods. Lü Bu hadn't suffered any heartaches during his time in Jinyang, and the immortals had been almost forgotten. But seeing these exceptional archers today rekindled Wei Xu's fantasies about them.

Lu Bu said thoughtfully, "Perhaps it's possible. Let's go to Jinyang and ask on our way back."

Wei Xu said excitedly, "I have to ask. If there is an immortal to help me, I can ask her to give me some strength. I don't need to be as powerful as my brother-in-law, just being as powerful as an archer will be enough."

Seeing him trying to take advantage, Lu Bu couldn't help laughing. This immortal had become an obsession that Ah Xu couldn't let go of.

After watching Xu Chu and others fight, Lu Bu was completely relieved. If the Hu people didn't have three or four times the number of troops, they would be courting death if they ran into this group of people.

At this time, Lu Bu also understood that the business that Amo was talking about was not buying horses, but directly robbing the Hu people's mounts. This girl was really brave, but it was exactly what he liked!

"Let's go back to Jiuyuan!"

Lu Bu raised his eyebrows and laughed, turned his horse's head and galloped towards the northwest. He missed her again, very much!
