Chapter 615: All the Generals Arrive

Closed camp!

The camps were blocked by numerous barricades and the only thing left was to hang up a sign of no fighting. After leaving behind many corpses, the coalition forces of the princes retreated back to their camps.

The atmosphere was a little heavy for a moment. They were no match for their opponent in a head-on confrontation. This made everyone feel extremely shocked.

This means that if the court does not come up with surprising strategies, it will continue to suffer at least tactical failure, and more seriously, it will not be successful strategically.

The reason why there was an urgent need for a decisive battle with Zhang Jue was because in the face of a large-scale uprising, especially the Taiping Rebellion, which was a clear-cut rebel army that wanted to overthrow the imperial court, this rebellion had to be put down resolutely, quickly and thoroughly.

Every moment of delay is exchanged for the court's accumulated power and its legitimate prestige.

If chaos lasts too long, people’s hearts will become confused.

Once people's hearts are in chaos, it will be difficult for the world to get back on track.

"Everyone, what should we do now?

Zhang Jue was brave and unstoppable, and he was even more terrifying than King Xiang and Han Wumu in the history books. "

As the highest-ranking official in the army, Huangfu Song naturally became the leader. In the tent were all the loyal princes. Except for those who died in battle, all the others were in this tent.

As soon as Huangfu Song said this, everyone in the tent looked a little unhappy. Thinking of Zhang Jue and the Taiping Army on the battlefield, their faces turned even darker.

When Yuan Shao and others suffered heavy losses, they once laughed at Yuan Shao, and even ridiculed him, saying that this was the only handsome man in the world.

As a result, when he faced Zhang Jue, he found that after being ambushed, Yuan Shao's coalition forces had managed to escape with their remaining troops, which was already quite difficult.

Although the Han army suffered heavy losses and should not laugh, Yuan Shao could not help it, so he raised his sleeve and drank a glass of wine.

Huangfu Song saw that everyone was silent and said, "After this battle with the Taiping Army, I have something to ask. Is the Taiping Army more elite than our Han Army?

Are the leaders of the Taiping Army better than the generals and captains of our Han Army?

Are the Taiping Army's counselors far superior to our Han scholars?

Of course not!

The only person the Taiping Army has to worry about is Zhang Jue. If Zhang Jue hadn't charged into the battle line, wouldn't our army's line be indestructible?

If the Taiping Army is a sharp sword, Zhang Jiao is the sharpest blade. As long as we can lock this blade or even break it directly, how can we not win? "

"But when Zhang Jue led his troops to charge, the Taiping Army's cavalry moved around without any flaws. Unless he wanted to, no one could get close to him."

This was discovered by Lu Bu when he broke out today. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. If it weren't for him, anyone else might have been trapped in it.

Huangfu Song smiled and said, "Of course I know this, but Zhang Julu likes martial arts. He challenged me in front of the battle array today. If it is a martial arts competition, I think it will be no problem to defeat Zhang Julu.

A few days ago, I heard that Gongsun Bogui has a brother named Liu Xuande. I wonder which hero he is! "

Liu Bei didn't expect that he would have a say in such a place full of bigwigs. He walked out from behind Gongsun Zan, bowed slightly and said, "I pay my respects to the Grand Commandant."

Everyone saw that Liu Bei had big ears, long arms, and a kind face, which was quite strange. It was obvious at first glance that he was not an ordinary person, and they couldn't help but take a few more glances at him.

Huangfu Song laughed and said, "You can tell at first glance that he is a hero. I heard that Xuande's two sworn brothers and a young general in white robes attacked together that day to stop Zhang Jue.

If three more powerful generals were to attack together, I wonder if Lord Xuande would still be able to win!"

A flash of worry crossed Liu Bei's brows. When Huangfu Song called his name, he guessed it was about this matter. The King's Defending Alliance had its priorities and he naturally could not refuse. However, Liu Bei was unwilling to go into battle like this.

After a moment's hesitation, he said in a loud voice: "General, there were ten fierce generals fighting together that day, six of them were seriously injured, four were suppressed by Zhang Jue, and one of them was a general under the command of Duke Meng De, a fierce general who could defeat ten thousand enemies.

"The strength of Zhang Jiao is not what it used to be. Even if the four of them attack together, I am afraid that they will not only be at a disadvantage, but also their lives will be in danger, which is not good for the overall situation."

This is a implicit rejection, and the words imply that you can't win, don't even think about it, it's too dangerous, and it's unreliable.

Huangfu Song did not expect that Liu Bei would reject his proposal. He was the Grand Marshal of the current dynasty, and except for his relatives by marriage, he was the best military man in the world.

Moreover, he was not a military man from a border county like Gongsun Zan. He had status and position, came from a prominent family, and was on good terms with the literati. Even Yuan Shao, who came from a wealthy family in Luoyang, could not get angry in front of him.

As soon as Huangfu Song saw Liu Bei, he knew that he was a loyal and honest man. Does that mean that four men with ten thousand enemies cannot defeat Zhang Jue?

At this time, Lu Bu behind Ding Yuan suddenly became excited. How could four people hold on in Zhang Jiao's hands?

What about myself?

Thinking of this, he continued to whisper something to Ding Yuan. When Ding Yuan heard what his adopted son said, his eyes immediately lit up.

After Liu Bei finished speaking, Ding Yuan bowed and said, "Captain, I have a son, surnamed Lu, given name Bu, courtesy name Fengxian, who is brave enough to be matched by ten thousand men, and is known as the Flying General.

There is also a subordinate, whose surname is Zhang, given name is Liao, and courtesy name is Wenyuan, who also has the strength to defeat ten thousand enemies and can accept the battle. "

As soon as Ding Yuan said this, there was silence in the tent for a moment, and then Huangfu Song was surprised. He never expected that this inconspicuous Ding Yuan could give him such a big surprise.

All the princes in the tent looked at Ding Yuan with jealousy, secretly complaining in their hearts that this brave general had fallen into the hands of these unknown people.

Yuan Shao felt a little unbalanced, but when he thought of Yan Liang and Wen Chou, he calmed down.

After this life-and-death experience, Yan Liang and Wen Chou's strength will be greatly improved. I have two generals from Hebei who are loyal to me. Isn't this enviable?

Yuan Shu was really jealous and mocked him, "This 10,000-man enemy is not just talk. Han Fu said that Pan Feng was an unrivaled general, but he was stabbed to death in one blow."

I don’t know if Yuan Shu’s face or his mouth is particularly rude, but whenever he speaks, people feel angry, and there is a fire building in their stomachs, but they cannot vent it.

Yuan Shao felt somewhat embarrassed and covered his face with his sleeves. Yuan Shu had always looked down on him. In fact, Yuan Shao also looked down on his younger brother.

When Lu Bu heard Yuan Shu humiliating him, he realized that he was a warrior from a nearby county and believed in the size of his fist. Only people who were stronger than him could make him admire them, such as Zhang Jue.

Who cares if you have been a noble for generations? Can anything be as sharp as the knife in my hand?

"Er An dares to insult me!"

Lu Bu's violent temper exploded immediately. He stood up from behind Ding Yuan with a bang. His aura instantly enveloped the entire venue, making people even feel a little breathless. When he stood up, even though he was only carrying a sword, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.

I'm afraid what Ding Yuan said is true!

However, considering what happened with Pan Feng before, people are still a little hesitant. When Ding Yuan saw Lu Bu, he exploded directly. He knew too well how powerful his adopted son was. It can be said that all the people in the tent combined are not enough to beat Lu Bu alone.

"Fengxian! Come back!"

Lü Bu looked somewhat unconvinced, but he still slowly sat down behind Ding Yuan. Ding Yuan then clasped his fists and said, "Lord Gonglu, we are from the border counties and do not know the etiquette, so please forgive me. However, my adopted son is indeed a match for ten thousand men. He killed a general and seized a flag. He once led three hundred wolf riders to charge into the battle array of more than ten thousand Xianbei and returned unscathed."

As soon as this record of battle was revealed, everyone instantly had an intuitive understanding of Lu Bu's martial power. Yuan Shu was so shocked by Lu Bu's chilling murderous intent that he broke out in cold sweat and was unwilling to say anything more.

After this episode, Liu Bei couldn't refuse, so he decided to siege, and Luo Kong didn't say anything.

He didn't know where this matter would end up. His brother didn't want to kill him, but he would eventually die step by step.

…

In the void heaven, Ji Zhao was holding the heavenly artifact, the Book of Heaven, in his hand, and was carefully disassembling it. He wanted to disassemble the item and take out the purple energy inside. The remaining materials could not be wasted. He had a plan in his mind, which happened to be used at this special time. He was waiting for Luo Xiao to complete his great cause and put an end to the Han court's destiny, and then he would use it directly.

…

The next day.

The Han army began to line up again, completely ignoring the fact that they had suffered a crushing defeat yesterday and were about to be beaten again so soon.

Luo Xiao laughed loudly to the Taiping Army leaders and said, "Have the Han court princes found a way to restrain me? This makes me curious. Form a battle array!"

After the two armies had finished forming their battle lines, the morale of the Han army was a little low, after all, they had just been defeated the day before. The morale of the Taiping army was high, and their cheers were deafening.

Luo Xiao was still wearing the Taoist robe and black armor. He walked out of the army formation and raised the lance in his hand high. Suddenly, a roar like a tsunami came from the Taiping Army.

"The Emperor of Heaven has descended upon the earth! The Taoist Master of Tianyi!"

The Han army was so shocked by the deafening shouts that their legs almost went limp. Lu Bu took a deep breath and rode out from the army. Luo Xiao's eyes lit up. It was the powerful general from yesterday.

Lü Bu rode forward, and before Luo Xiao could say his general's name, Lü Bu introduced himself directly, "I am Lü Fengxian of Bingzhou, and I am here on the orders of my adoptive father to capture you. Zhang Jue, why don't you surrender immediately!"

If someone who is familiar with Lu Bu was here, he would probably be shocked, because Lu Bu was really polite in his words. If it were an ordinary day, he would directly say "You son of a bitch, come and take your head."

Luo Xiao was now in an invincible stage, so he didn't care about these words. He just raised his lance slightly, and then said lightly: "Come, let me see the strength of your big talk."

The two men rode forward separately. Lu Bu held the Fang Tian Hua Ji in both hands and began to accumulate strength while running wildly. When he got close, he stabbed hard. Luo Xiao wanted to test him and was not careless. He also attacked with almost all his strength.

clang!

A sound that almost shattered the eardrums came from the point where the two men's weapons intersected, making the soldiers who were farther away have buzzing heads. Luo Xiao and Lu Bu both quickly shook the weapons in their hands to relieve the force.

The mount under Lu Bu's crotch retreated many steps before it stopped. In contrast, Luo Xiao basically stayed steadily in place.

After this probing attack, Luo Xiao knew it was indeed very powerful.

If I hadn't broken through my destiny and appeared out of nowhere, this person's martial arts level would probably be on par with mine, and he would be able to compete with me for the position of number one in the world.

But compared to his current self, he is still far behind. He needs to break through at least two levels in martial arts before he can reach his current level.

If these two realms are quantified by attributes, they would be 97 and 99, especially 99. For mortals, this is a completely new field.

Especially in this rather fantastic world, those who can reach this realm will have some gifts from the world. The chosen ones are truly the chosen ones.

Lu Bu felt his numb hands and for the first time had an unbelievable thought in his mind: How could there be someone stronger than me in this world?

Luo Xiao rode his horse straight forward. The black unicorn under his crotch was the king of horses. The bonus of a good warhorse to combat power was unquestionable.

Luo Xiao took the lead and stabbed.

Ding ding ding!

Almost in the blink of an eye, the two had already exchanged ten moves. The speed was so fast that it seemed like an illusion, but the cold murderous intent contained in it could be felt even by the person who was least knowledgeable in martial arts, because just watching it made one feel cold all over.

Cries of surprise were heard one after another, and Lu Bu became famous in one battle.

Zhang Jiao's invincible figure of beheading generals and charging into battle was almost imprinted in everyone's mind. No one could be his opponent. But now Lu Bu was able to fight Zhang Jiao for so many moves without showing any signs of defeat. Only Lu Bu himself knew his pain. He raised the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand, majestically and loudly shouted to Luo Xiao: "Everyone help me!"

The voice was full of energy, with a hint of shame deep in it. This was the first time in his life that he asked for help from others during a duel.

I, the great Flying General, have fallen!

But when I thought about it, since we couldn't win the battle anyway, there was nothing wrong in asking for help. Besides, we were the imperial army and you were a rebel, so this was a just fight.

If Luo Xiao knew what Lu Bu was thinking, he would surely laugh wildly and say that justice depends on whether one can defeat the opponent. Only when one can defeat the opponent can it be called justice.

Following Lu Bu's roar, five more men rode out on horseback. They were Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Xu Chu and Zhang Liao.

Warriors all have their own pride, and are generally unwilling to join in a group fight. But if they really can't win, there is nothing they can do except fight side by side.

Faced with six people going into battle together, both armies were in an uproar, but Luo Xiao couldn't help showing a smile on his face. He had no intention of retreating. No one was surprised that Luo Xiao did not give way.

Luo Xiao probably treated them as whetstones, and through their continuous strengthening, Guan Yu and others observed this.

“Ka-ka-ka!”

Luo Xiao stretched his muscles slightly, this time he was really going to do his best!

Lü Bu, courtesy name Fengxian, was a native of Bingzhou. He was famous among the princes for his bravery and strength. He looked down on other generals and would often boast, "Since I was a soldier, I have been the best in martial arts in the world. I am naturally proud. This is a normal human nature." - "Records of Heroes in the Late Han Dynasty"
