At that moment, Xue Rengui also saw Lü Bu!

Back when he was in Shanwu, he had heard Zhang Liao say that Ding Yuan had a fierce warrior from Wuyuan County under his command, who also wielded a halberd and was as brave as ten thousand men.

Li Su also mentioned that his cousin Lü Bu met a reclusive master in Wuyuan who taught him extraordinary martial arts.

Before he even entered Bingzhou, he had single-handedly routed hundreds of Xianbei cavalry who had been raiding the area.

He gained fame in one battle and was appreciated by Ding Yuan, who was then serving as an official in Bingzhou. Ding Yuan recruited him along with Zhang Liao from Mayi and Zhang Yang from Yunzhong.

Upon seeing Lü Bu in person, Xue Rengui's expression immediately turned solemn.

Their eyes met for a split second, as if an invisible current surged through the air, sparking intense flames.

The halberd, also known as the Fangtian Huaji, was a renowned heavy weapon in ancient times, requiring considerable strength and skill to fully utilize its advantages.

Xue Rengui and Lü Bu both wielded the halberd with exceptional skill, demonstrating their mastery of this divine weapon and making them truly deserving of the title of masters.

Within the halberd, there seemed to be the spirit of the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon, its sharp tip exuding an incomparably fierce killing intent.

In short, when the two masters wielding the halberd faced each other, time and space seemed to freeze, and the air was filled with a scorching heat.

Lu Bu's fighting spirit was immediately ignited!

Without saying a word, he spurred his horse and charged towards Xue Rengui with his halberd.

In the heavens and on the earth, there is only one halberd; all the others will perish.

Lu Bu unleashed an invisible killing intent that quickly spread outwards.

"Such a powerful killing intent!"

At this moment, Xue Rengui felt Lu Bu's overwhelming fighting spirit.

This was the first time he had felt such suffocating pressure since Liu Wei summoned him.

However, Xue Rengui only grew stronger when faced with a stronger opponent!

Facing Lü Bu, Xue Rengui also wanted to use all his strength to fight him to the death, so that the world would know who the true master of the Fangtian Halberd was!

However, his surprise attack with the Xuanjia cavalry was intended to take advantage of Lu Bu's unpreparedness, kill as many enemies as possible, cause damage, and create a deterrent effect.

This, in turn, affected the speed at which Lü Bu's army advanced towards Zhangye County.

This keeps them hesitant and indecisive outside the city walls, preventing them from launching an attack and thus creating a stalemate.

This way, they can buy time until Liu Wei arrives.

At the same time, it can also buy time for the 3,500 white-robed cavalrymen led by Zhou Qing and his four generals.

Presumably, by this moment, the White-Robed Army cavalry has already stormed into Dunhuang, pursuing and killing the remnants of the Yuchi Xianbei army.

Therefore, even if Lü Bu wanted to duel him, Xue Rengui would absolutely not accept the challenge.

As a brilliant strategist, his goal was not this.

If Xue Rengui were to risk a fight with Lü Bu for the sake of momentary courage, his 1,900 Xuanjia cavalry would likely be swallowed up by the vast sea of ​​Liangzhou troops.

Seventy thousand people!

Even if it's 70,000 sheep, they'll be slaughtered until they're exhausted.

The current situation is completely different from the previous raid by Xue Rengui with 1,500 cavalry on the camp of Yufuluo, the Right Wise King of the Xiongnu.

Xue Rengui decided to ignore Lü Bu's provocations and instead led the Xuanjia cavalry towards the densely populated area of ​​the Liangzhou army.

Seeing that Xue Rengui ignored him, Lü Bu felt humiliated!

"Damn it, how dare he look down on me!"

Lu Bu roared and spurred his horse to chase after Xue Rengui.

However, without Red Hare, how could Lü Bu catch up with Xue Rengui riding Snow Dragon Steed?

The Xuanjia cavalry swept past like black dragons, moving as one, their aura fierce and powerful.

Lu Bu dared not confront him directly, so he rode his horse around in circles.

The warhorse beneath him was also a fine breed from the northern grasslands, but it hesitated in fear when faced with the overwhelming momentum of the Xuanjia cavalry rushing past.

"Hey! Back in Taiyuan, when Li Ru tried to win me over with Dong Zhuo's Red Hare, I should have accepted it first!"

"As for whether to agree or not, let's get the horse first."

"If we had Red Hare, we wouldn't be unable to catch up with this guy now!"

Lü Bu regretted not having a good horse.

Just then, Gao Shun arrived with his 700 elite troops.

Gao Shun was someone Lü Bu met on his way from Bingzhou to Liangzhou to take up his post, accompanied by Ding Yuan.

He admired Lü Bu's bravery and was willing to serve him.

Upon arriving in Liangzhou, he requested troops from Lü Bu, selected outstanding soldiers, and rigorously trained them. In just one or two months, they had already become quite formidable.

Gao Shun's elite troops followed Lü Bu in suppressing the rebellion in Liangzhou, where they trained through battle and have now become Lü Bu's most formidable force.

"General, do you need my troops to fight?"

Gao Shun naturally saw the Xuanjia Cavalry, these heavily armored cavalrymen, who looked like lumps of iron, and he didn't know where to start.

But as soon as Lü Bu gave the order, he led the Trapped Camp forward without hesitation.

Lü Bu was well aware that Gao Shun would be committing suicide if he went up there at this moment, and he resolutely refused to allow it.

Boom!

Wei Xu also arrived with three thousand Liangzhou cavalry.

"General, our cavalry has arrived. What should we do? Please give the order!"

Wei Xu was a relative of Lü Bu. The three thousand Liangzhou cavalrymen were a force composed of outstanding cavalrymen selected from the troops of various counties after Lü Bu followed Ding Yuan into Liangzhou to quell the rebellion.

These three thousand Liangzhou cavalry and Gao Shun's elite Trapped Camp were the result of Lu Bu's painstaking efforts over two months.

"The other side had no intention of fighting me one-on-one; they were clearly just trying to ambush our army and cause chaos."

"Don't rush. Order Ma Teng and Han Sui to gather archers and give me ranged attacks."

"At the same time, all troops should avoid confrontation if possible, and absolutely not engage in direct combat with them."

"Heavy cavalry horses are heavily laden and cannot run for long."

"When they are exhausted, that will be our time to attack."
