Valkyrie Returns

Lu Bu led Xiuyuan non-stop through Yuan Shao's army formation and rushed towards Hulao Pass. It was bright daylight, and facing the warm rising sun, Lu Bu's purple military flag looked more and more noble. Although Xiuyuan lost the Dharma, The eyes of the sky were still there, and when he squinted slightly, he saw the image of a dragon on the corner of the military flag embroidered with gold thread. He was in a good mood, and raised his neck from behind Lu Bu to talk to him:

"Feng Xian'er, do you know what time it is?"

"What's the matter? Hungry again?" Lu Bu's ear was excellent, he stopped his horse's hooves before Xiu Yuan finished speaking, turned his face to ask Xiu Yuan, his tone was soft, and there was a faint smile between his brows.

"What are you talking about? I didn't lead the horse and hold the bridle. How could I be hungry faster than you? It's just that I have never been to Hulao Pass. I don't know how far away it is? You know that marching and fighting need all your energy, and then you will be hungry again." And decline, three to exhaustion, if you rush blindly, and be ambushed by others waiting for work, the gain will not be worth the loss.”

Hearing this, Lu Bu stretched out his long arm and raised his whip, pointing to the southeast: "Do you see the mountains to the east? The Hulao Pass is between Songyue Mountains, and the Yellow River is in the north. It is only a few meters away from Luoyang City. Ten miles away, although we were blocked by Yuan Shao's miscellaneous army for a while, we are not far away now."

Xiu Yuan followed Lu Bu's arm intently and forgot, but only saw a hazy cloud of smoke, but Lu Bu's muscular arm was infinitely enlarged in front of his eyes. Xiu Yuan looked at it for a while, then smiled and shook his head: "Since you are about to When the time comes, let's rush out of the pass. Immortal Master Yu Ji went to contact Zhao Yun himself, but we don't know what will happen. Hulao Pass still needs to be resolved quickly, just make the momentum a little bigger. "

"Qinghe, don't worry, with Lord Hou here, you won't be hungry." Then he yelled and drove the Shenjun Chitu and rushed out first.

When Lu Bu said this, he didn't deliberately lower his voice, so he and Xiu Yuan's personal guards could hear him, and they booed together: "Military commander, please don't worry, the military master will definitely be able to eat the heat in Hulao Pass before Chen Shi. Steaming big soup dumplings." Xiu Yuan was so embarrassed when he heard this, he simply buried his whole head in Lu Bu's broad back and stopped talking.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Xiuyuan followed Chituma through the open tower of Hulao Pass and entered the deserted pass. Along the way, he saw no soldiers holding swords and halberds on guard, nor was Liu Ya and Arrow rain attack.The huge Hulao Pass was eerily silent, and there was a bit of solemnity in the emptiness.

Although Xiuyuan didn't know martial arts, he could sense the murderous aura coming from all directions. He hurriedly sat up straight, gestured to the army formation behind him, and asked loudly, "I don't know which soldier of the Mengde Army is guarding Hulao Pass?" , Marquis Wen came all the way, as the subjects of the Han Dynasty, how can you not show up to greet him?"

"Dong Zhuo's self-respect in support of the army, and chaos in the court, Lu Fengxiantian is the minister who holds the edict and the book, and he doesn't know how to save the king. What's the reason for fighting against the bandits?" Ask back.

Xiu Yuan looked up and saw a young scribe holding a talisman coming out of the crowd, and the tower was already covered with armored soldiers in silence: "In front of Duke Cao's tent, offering wine and serving the palace, may I ask who is just now?" call?"

Xiuyuan looked up and saw that the swordsmen and archers were all orderly occupying the high place, condescending and besieging our army formation firmly. It is obvious that the military division guarding the Hulao Pass had long expected that someone would come to break through the pass and specially set up a barrier The plan of the turtle in the urn.Xiu Yuan lowered his body slightly, hid his entire face behind Lu Bu's back, and asked in a low voice, "Can Feng Xian recognize the tall and strong general beside the scribe?"

"If my predictions are correct, this person must be Dian Wei. You can see that he wears armguards on his left and right wrists. He is obviously good at using heavy and sharp weapons. There have been rumors in the army that Dian Wei, a general of Cao Cao's department, has two halberds and eight halberds. Ten catties."

Since it wasn't Xia Houchun and Cao Zhang who came here, Xiu Yuan expected that Lv Bu would be able to easily subdue him, so he was immediately full of courage, thinking about taking back Chen Gong, the number one adviser under Lv Bu's account, so he deliberately questioned back in an extremely disdainful tone: " Xiuyuan thought that Mr. has a good appearance, he thought he was a person who knew etiquette, but he never expected that he was just such a ignorant rat, Hou Ye lived a difficult life in his early years, if Grand Master Dong hadn't generously gifted him with golden beads and red rabbits, how could he be in his position today The power of the three princes? There is an old saying that the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring. Even if Dong Taishi misbehaved, Hou Ye could only try his best to persuade him. How could he really fight with his righteous father who saved himself from danger? Let's start? Sir's accusation seems righteous, but in fact it's nothing more than criticism. Since Sir voluntarily wants to be a second minister, why bother to cover up and find all kinds of excuses for himself?"

Chen Gong was upright by nature, but he was accused of being a second minister for no reason, his face flushed with anger, "Young man with a yellow mouth, stop talking nonsense!" Immediately he shouted and ordered the archers to shoot arrows, Xiu Yuan knew that Lv Bu had been prepared and exhausted He shouted with all his strength: "Master Hou shot the arrow at the point three inches between Dianwei's guard's wrist. There is a foreign object in that place that can reflect the sunlight. I just want to see what kind of rare treasure it is!"

Xiuyuan has absolute confidence in Lu Bu's archery skills. After all, anyone who has read a little history of the Three Kingdoms knows the allusion of shooting a halberd at the gate. At such a distance, he is not worried that Lu Bu will miss his aim at all.Sure enough, Lu Bu's arrow came first and shot down Dian Wei's shiny armguard from the tower in one fell swoop.

Dian Wei's pair of armguards were very heavy and fell from the high tower with a loud noise, causing the soldiers guarding the pass to panic in an instant. This was exactly what Xiuyuan had planned. During the gap, Xiu Yuan turned his head and shouted towards his own army: "Where are Hou Cheng and Song Xian! Hurry up and capture the military advisers in the city to see me!"

Xiu Yuan saw two vigorous figures behind him passing overhead, heading straight for Chen Gong, Xiu Yuan was startled and hastily added: "Don't hurt Mr. Chen."

However, at the same time, Dian Wei did not stay by Chen Gong's side as Xiu Yuan imagined. He jumped in front of Lu Bu's horse, raised his hand and threw a short halberd towards Xiu Yuan's front door. Seeing this, he was furious, his eyes wide open, he jumped off his horse and fought with Dian Wei with a loud shout.

With Lu Bu around, Xiu Yuan was not worried about his own safety, he raised his face high and concentrated on where Chen Gong was, seeing that Chen Gong lost to Hou Cheng and Song Xian and they were about to jump off the tower to commit suicide, Xiu Yuan's eyes widened. Wanting to burst, he leaned forward with all his strength and shouted: "Xiu Yuanjiu heard the name of Mr. Loyalty, but now he doesn't want to help the orthodox Han, but wants to die for the Cao thief. Why?"

When Chen Gong heard the words, he seemed to be shaken, and hesitated a little before he was captured by Hou Cheng and Song Xian.The Hulao Pass was originally a natural danger, but because of Chen Gong's scheming, it turned out to be an advantage. The so-called one force can reduce ten meetings. In the face of Lu Bu's overwhelming force, such a tactic seemed self-defeating.The Xiliang soldiers had just narrowly escaped from Luoyang City, and their morale was high. On the other hand, the guards at Hulao Gate had been suffering in waiting and silence, and their spirit had long since been worn down.

In less than an hour, except for Dian Wei who managed to lead a few Qingzhou soldiers out of the siege with his own bravery, the rest of the guards at Hulao Pass were either captured or died in battle.The outcome has been decided, and Cheng Lian and other generals will check the battlefield, so Xiu Yuan and Lu Bu made a special trip to see Chen Gong early on.

Chen Gong and the surrendered soldiers were together, closing their eyes and resting their minds. Although there was a lot of dust on the clean face due to the fight just now, there was still a sense of righteousness in the clear eyebrows and eyes.

Xiu Yuan chuckled and squatted down. He didn't care whether Chen Gong should respond to him or not, and began to speak on his own: "Then Cao Cao, who pretended to be a Han Xiang in the name of a Han Xiang, is actually a Han thief. How is it different from Dong Taishi and his ilk? ? Master Hou is the current son's book. If you don't wake up and help Master Hou this time, I am afraid that in the future, the history will be like a knife, and you will really be stigmatized as a second minister. Master Hou is the most brave man in the world. Do your best to help He Chou and not be able to help the Han family? No matter what your master plans, Xiu Yuan will say that, please trouble Cao Xing to escort him all the way to the outside of the city. Master Hou and I have something important to do, you take the soldiers back to the west Liang, let Mr. Jia order."

After Xiu Yuan finished speaking, he didn't wait for Chen Gong's reply, he grabbed Lu Bu's hand and was about to leave the camp in a hurry, only to hear Chen Gong yelling from behind: "Gongtai almost made a big mistake, so the Marquis won't give up. You should serve your account with all your heart!"

With Chen Gong on his back, Xiu Yuan made a big grimace at Lu Bu. Lu Bu smiled with the corners of his mouth pulled, turned around, and helped Chen Gong who was half kneeling on the ground with both hands: "What did you say, Mr. My military adviser has been talking about Mr. Zhonglie in my ears. This time, with Mr.'s help, we will be able to stabilize our position in Xiliang. Xiuyuan and I have something to do, and we will go back to Xiliang with Hou Cheng and Song Xian by way of the Xiongnu. If you need something during the journey, just give orders, these are my personal soldiers who have followed me for many years, even if you have any private matters, sir, don’t shy away from it, just give orders.”
