The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 470

Zhuohe Ferry, Mengjin.

As one of the eight passes to defend Luoyang, Mengjin Pass is bordered by Zhuohe River in the north and Mangling Mountain in the south. With the support of mountains and rivers, the pass is easy to defend, forming a situation where the pass controls the river and the river defends the pass.

Because of the dangerous situation, Mengjin Port was set up on the other side of the Zhuohe River, where Israeli military camps were stationed. Relying on each other, it became an important town guarding the north.

At the first moment of Shenshi, the night is already deep.

The noisy wild frogs in the fields stopped singing in the middle of the night, and the cicadas on the trees were tired of their calls and nestled in the branches to sleep.The deserted moonlight shines on the earth, and the forests, mountains and rivers are all quiet.

The soldiers on guard stood with their arms around the barrel of their guns, their eyelids drooping, their heads drooping once in a while, and they dozed off.

Of course, there are also some soldiers who are more familiar with each other on weekdays, sitting together, chatting and beating.The topic of discussion is naturally the war outside the pass.

"Brother Cang, have you heard that it seems that the Hulao Pass is about to be overwhelmed." A thin young man inquired.

"Cheng San'er, who did you listen to! How is it possible? Dong Taishi personally sits in the Hulao Pass. How can a mere Guandong kid defeat my Xiliang Xionghu master?" , obviously he was extremely convinced that Dong Zhuo could defeat the allied forces of the Kwantung princes.

In the past, Dong Zhuo treated his subordinates very well, and there are still many people who are grateful to Dong Zhuo, and this man is one of them.

"Who knows, the outcome of a war is uncertain." The soldier next to him also interjected.

"I can't say for sure, I, Xiliang Erlang, are brave and staunch, and I can't be afraid of them!"

"Chen Daniu, you can't say that. After all, the Kwantung Allied Army has tens of thousands of people. Hundreds of thousands, what is the concept, one person can drown you alive..."

"You bastard, why are you always talking for outsiders! Believe it or not, I'll beat you!"

"Don't quarrel, the general trend of the world is beyond our comprehension."

The middle-aged man called 'Brother Cang' stroked his chin beard. As soon as he spoke, the soldiers sitting around fell silent.

Few people know Brother Cang's name. It is said that his ancestral home is in Huainan, but those who know him well know that Brother Cang is a very capable person.

"The situation outside the pass is nothing more than two. Either Taishi Dong defends Hulao Pass and repels the princes of the Guandong, or the princes work together to break through the pass. No matter what the result is, it will not affect Mengjin. If we win, we will continue to garrison Mengjin. If we lose , we may retreat to Guanzhong.”

The middle-aged man saw the battle situation thoroughly, and didn't waste any time talking about it, so he changed the subject: "In front of Hulao Pass, there was one person who really shined."

"You mean General Zhenbei, Wenhou Lubu?" The thin soldier took up the topic at first.

The middle-aged man nodded, and then asked, "Then do you know what happened to him?"

Hearing these words, the thin young man suddenly regained his spirits, and he spit like a treasure, and he spit endlessly: "Wen Hou Lu Bu, styled Fengxian, is nine feet long and has extraordinary physical strength. Get off your horse and ride a horse with a whistling wind, and travel thousands of miles a day, and eight hundred miles at night..."

In that era, personal bravery was advocated, although the power of one person played little role on the battlefield.However, no matter where they go, the strong man who is preached by the world will always exude a different color.

"Then do you know why the bloody sweat horse under his crotch is called 'Red Dodder'?" The middle-aged man asked with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, the thin young man who was talking excitedly showed embarrassment. This question not only stumped him, but also stumped everyone. Isn't 'Red Tu' a random name?

The middle-aged man shook his head slightly, and made a simple science popularization for everyone: "Chu people call a tiger in the tu. 'Tu' means tiger, which means fierce. It is the king of horses, and it cannot be controlled by extraordinary people."

After hearing this, the people around were suddenly enlightened.Before I knew it, the figure in my heart seemed to grow a lot taller.

"Brother Cang, then tell us about the origin of that Fangtian painted halberd in Marquis Wen's hand."

"Yes, yes, talk, talk."

"The night is long, Brother Cang, don't hide it, please tell me and listen."

Since the red dodder can speak eloquently, the blood-drinking halberd in Lu Bu's hand must have a great origin.

"Oh, my shoulder, I don't know why, it always hurts badly..." At the critical moment, the middle-aged man deliberately whetted everyone's appetite.

Everyone was eager to learn, and immediately someone stood behind him and gently pinched him. The skillful technique showed that he had done a lot of work on weekdays.

"And my old cold legs, at night..."

Before he finished speaking, the thin young man sitting next to him started to beat his legs.

"This dry mouth..."

Several bowls of cold water were handed to him at the same time.

This kind of feeling like the stars holding the moon is not too comfortable. The middle-aged man poured a bowl of cold water, wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, looked at the eager eyes of everyone, and smiled: "Then continue talking?"

Everyone nodded repeatedly, just waiting for this word.

The middle-aged man cleared his throat, and was about to speak again, when suddenly, his brows darkened, "Listen, what's that sound?"

"Brother, don't change the subject." Everyone wanted to hear the story, and they all thought that the middle-aged man was deliberately changing the subject.

"No, listen!" The middle-aged man's face became a little more serious.

Seeing that it didn't seem like a joke, everyone pricked up their ears, da da da, da da da~~~
The sound of horseshoes!
"Alert! Alert!"

The cries of closing the city gate rang out, and the dozing soldiers trembled all over, and most of them woke up from their doze in an instant, and all the people who were sitting and listening to the story also got up and returned to their respective posts.

Regardless of whether it is an enemy or a friend, at least the most basic vigilance must be maintained.

Soon, four horses stood under Mengjin Pass.

The lieutenant at Chengguan came out yawning, looked down with sleepy eyes, and said lazily: "Stop those who come, tell me your name."

The moon in the night sky pierced through the clouds, and it was hazy below the city gate, and it was impossible to see the face of the person who came.

The archers next to the captain set up their arrows, aimed and shut them down to prevent the opponent from attacking suddenly.

Lu Bu, who was riding on the back of the red dodder, took two steps forward, looked up at the captain above, and said in a calm voice with an irresistible majesty: "This general, Lu Bu, came here by the order of the grand master."

Hearing this, Guan Shang's soldiers looked at each other in blank dismay.Just now we were still discussing the legendary life of this young flying general, but now, he actually saw him alive?
"You are Marquis Wen?"

The captain asked tentatively, even using the honorific title.

Regarding Lu Bu, most of the people present only heard his name but never saw him.No one knows what it really looks like.

What's more, when the lights are turned off and the lights flicker, no one can tell the appearance of the locked people.

It is not impossible if the bandits deliberately came to open the city gate.

After all, the dignified Marquis Wen, who only brought two or three horses with him, came to Guanxia in the middle of the night, which is too unreasonable.

No one has a clue about this matter, and the captain dare not be careless in the slightest.He couldn't afford to offend Lu Bu, but he was afraid of being deceitful, so he lowered his posture and said with an apologetic smile: "Marquis Wen, I'm sorry for being rude. Do you have anything to prove your identity?"
