The sight of the Huns slaughtering indiscriminately not far away reminded Lü Bu of Lü Family Village and his parents and relatives.

Immediately, Lü Bu raised his halberd, its tip pointing at the Xiongnu cavalry!

"Charge with me!"

Lu Bu spurred his warhorse and charged towards the Xiongnu.

"kill!!"

Three thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalrymen followed closely behind.

At this moment, Lü Bu's mind was consumed by hatred. He recklessly spurred his warhorse and led his Bingzhou wolf cavalry straight towards the Xiongnu cavalry not far away.

"General Dong, shall we advance?"

Seeing Lü Bu and the Bingzhou army disregard military orders and suddenly rush straight ahead, one of Dong Zhuo's personal guards looked at Dong Zhuo with longing.

Dong Zhuo narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "The opposing side has at least four thousand men, and their fighting strength is not to be underestimated. Even if the Bingzhou army wins, they will pay a considerable price!"

Looking at the Xiongnu cavalry not far away, Dong Zhuo could tell at a glance from their tall warhorses and burly physiques that they were extraordinary.

The guard looked at Dong Zhuo with a puzzled expression.

"Then what do we do?"

"We are all His Majesty's soldiers, and we certainly cannot watch our brothers in the Bingzhou army suffer!"

Without further hesitation, Dong Zhuo drew his goose-feathered sword from his waist and roared:

"Brothers, victory is within our grasp! Promotion, wealth, and a life of luxury for our wives and children—it's all up to you now! Follow me and fight!"

Immediately, Dong Zhuo spurred his horse and charged forward.

"kill!!"

The three thousand Xiliang cavalry behind Dong Zhuo also roared excitedly and followed closely behind.

Seeing the Han cavalry charging straight at them, one of the generals under the Left Wise King raised his scimitar and pointed it at Lü Bu, who was charging ahead.

"Warriors, the Han cavalry are nothing but a bunch of sheep on horseback! Charge! Slaughter them all!"

At the command of the Xiongnu general, four thousand Xiongnu cavalrymen immediately spurred their horses, forming three ranks in a straight line, and charged towards the Bingzhou wolf cavalry charging at the front.

When Lü Bu, who was charging ahead, saw that the Xiongnu were advancing instead of retreating, a sinister smile appeared on his lips.

"Change formation!!"

As Lü Bu roared, he raised his halberd high and swung it forward, the tip pointing directly at the enemy's central army.

When the soldiers behind saw Lü Bu give the order through his halberd, they all patted the necks of their warhorses.

The troops, which had originally charged forward in a goose-shaped formation, began to converge towards Lu Bu's sides from near to far, and in a short time, the original goose-shaped formation transformed into a cone-shaped formation.

The Xiongnu cavalry on the opposite side were shocked to see the Han army charging towards them and manage to change formation while still charging.

"Bows and crossbows, prepare!! Spear charge!!"

After completing the formation change, Lü Bu shouted again and swung the blade of his Fangtian Halberd, pointing it straight to the sky.

Upon hearing Lü Bu's command, the soldiers behind him immediately reached out with their left hands to take down the crossbows hanging on their horses, while simultaneously gripping their spears tightly with their right hands.

"Where did these cavalry come from?! Changing formation so easily...?"

The Xiongnu general was also incredulous. Although they could change formations, the two armies were now less than 500 meters apart. If he were to order a change of formation, he would be out of his mind!

"They're just for show, ignore them, keep charging!! Archers on both flanks, prepare!!"

Left with no other option, the Xiongnu general roared and ordered the charge to continue, hoping to stop the Han army's advance head-on.

"The entire army will be divided into two small wedge formations, left and right. Charge!! Long spear assault!!"

Upon seeing Lü Bu change formation, Dong Zhuo roared and immediately ordered his cavalry to change formation as well, taking down his spear and gripping it tightly in his hand.

The enemy formation only has three rows, which is very weak. Using long spears to break through the enemy's formation is the most suitable method.

Immediately, the Bingzhou wolf cavalry led the charge, followed by the Xiliang iron cavalry, and the two armies charged towards the Xiongnu cavalry's single-line formation in a triangular formation.

Although Dong Zhuo reacted quickly, he was still some distance behind Lü Bu's troops, so the original 6,000 Han soldiers who were gathered together were divided into two echelons, greatly reducing their numerical advantage.

"Release the arrows!!"

Soon, when they were less than two hundred meters apart, Lü Bu and the Xiongnu general shouted almost simultaneously.

The Bingzhou soldiers charging immediately pulled the triggers of their crossbows, while the archers on both flanks of the Xiongnu also loosened their bowstrings.

"Boom! Buzz!"

With the twang of crossbow strings and bowstrings, two volleys of arrows simultaneously rained down on each other.

The Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry used military crossbows specially made by the Research and Manufacturing Bureau. Tens of thousands of crossbow bolts roared towards the Xiongnu cavalry like a cone-shaped dark cloud.

In contrast, the thousands of arrows fired by the Xiongnu cavalry on both flanks appeared rather sparse and weak.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~!"

The sound of sharp blades slicing through the air rang out, and the Xiongnu cavalrymen all looked on in horror as tens of thousands of crossbow bolts hurtled towards them.

"Puff puff puff~! Ah~! Ah~!"

With sharp blades piercing their bodies and screams of agony, in an instant, more than four hundred Xiongnu cavalrymen were struck by dozens of arrows and fell from their horses, creating an opening in the first rank of Xiongnu cavalry facing the Bingzhou cavalry.

On the other side, dozens of arrows shot by the Xiongnu were aimed directly at Lü Bu, who was charging at the forefront.

With lightning speed, Lü Bu swung his halberd to sweep away the incoming arrow.

Although he deflected most of the arrows, a few still managed to slip through the gaps and hurtle towards Lü Bu's chest.
