Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

The eagle flew across the sky, catching a glimpse of countless two-legged beasts facing each other below. After a sharp hawk chirp, it flew away diagonally.

The crimson sea was surging, and with the flag fluttering, Liu Yanqing, who was wearing purple and gold armor, waved his arms: "Stop——"

The soldiers who delivered the order raised their flags. Seeing this scene, the generals in command shouted for their men to stop and form a formation, while they led their own soldiers up the mound.

The war horse stamped on the spot a few times and shook his head. Liu Yanqing looked at the spreading black shadow in the distance and was silent for a moment. He raised his whip and said, "Shout, let the leader of the thieves, Lu Bu, come forward and answer."

"Father, is this his love for talents?" Liu Guangguo turned to look at his father.

Liu Yanqing nodded, with some emotion on his face: "After this battle has started, I have to admit that this Liangshan traitor has some abilities. If he can be allowed to join the imperial court and be driven to fight against the Xia traitors, he will be able to make the best use of his talents."

The eldest son of Liu family had a wry smile on his face: "I'm afraid that I am a traitor and will betray my father's good intentions."

"...I have to give it a try." The middle-aged man said with tangled words and a hopeful look on his face.

On the side, a sergeant came over to cut down the trees on both sides that blocked the view, and the tense atmosphere began to permeate.

……

Boom boom boom boom——

Heavy footsteps resounded on the field as the Liangshan infantry advanced. The stands of guns shone coldly in the sun. The chariots at the rear followed slowly, running over the loess and making deep ruts.

Dust flew up into the air, and it was already past noon. The three troops, Xiying, Xi Sheng, and Bian Xiang, were advancing forward in a row, followed by the sergeants of the trapped camp in darkness. There were constant messengers running back and forth, passing the news to the other two sides. However, generally speaking, they were not close to the official and military positions at this time, and the letter they received stated that everything was normal.

"There are about 40,000 people on the other side..." Xi Sheng, who was riding on the white horse, gasped, his eyes scanning the silent soldiers walking around, and his hand kept rubbing the hilt of the protective sword at his waist.

In this battle, almost all the troops in the fortress at the rear were dispatched, leaving only six to seven hundred wounded soldiers to symbolically guard the rear. This battle was decisive, whether it was Lu Bu outside or them. None of those responsible for defense thought about holding back.

As the distance approached, Xi Sheng squinted his eyes as he looked at the two flags of "Song" and "Liu" standing on the mound. The opponent was located on a high ground and could see clearly. It was somewhat inconvenient for the subsequent deployment of military formations. However, this is how war is, to use advantage Fighting against the bad is the right thing to do.

Just as he was thinking about it, he gradually walked towards the distance between two arrows. A cavalryman came quickly in front of him, and a loud voice rang out from the sky: "Where is Lu Bu, the leader of the thieves? Commander Ji invites you to come forward and answer!"

In the middle of the formation, Xi Sheng narrowed his eyes and suddenly turned his head: "Send orders to the Yin and Bian Xiang tribes to attack directly! Let Hua Rong's Shengsheng Battalion cover them, and the trapped camp will act according to the flag!"

He picked up a two-foot-long bright silver gun hanging on the victory hook and raised it toward the sky: "Success or failure depends on this battle, what else can I say, brothers, rush over and kill -"

"kill--"

Amid the thunderous roar, Di Lei clashed his hammers and led his men forward quickly. The sergeant who was delivering the order was shocked when he saw this and turned around to leave. Yang Zhi on the side opened his bow to the full moon and shot an arrow suddenly. , and immediately shot the man off his horse.

Wuwuwu——

The horn was raised, and the desolate sound echoed. Countless people in the field roared "kill", and figures ran up one after another, without any formation, without any preparation, leaning like a flood that broke a bank. Rushing towards the standing officers and soldiers, the entire field was filled with figures wearing armor and sharp swords.

Liu Yanqing could see clearly from the hillside, his eyes widened, his face turned red, and he suddenly cursed: "You are a thief who has the bones of a mother, you are a bastard who is looking for death..."

Taking a deep breath: "Bang the drum!" The war drums sounded. The officers and soldiers lined up for several miles were stunned for a moment, and then they reacted. The generals, commanders, and Yuhou in charge of the army issued orders one after another, and the sergeants below He began to put up his shield, set up his gun, and assume a defensive posture.

"Rocket--"

Amidst the roar and the formation rushing from the front, Hua Rong, who was covered in silver armor, drew out his treasure bow, lit the fuse with a fire stick, opened the bow to the full moon, sprayed gunpowder, and the arrow shot like a comet, with tail flames shooting towards the opposite side. A figure wearing a helmet and armor under the flag.

The next moment, the roaring commander was unprepared and was shot in the chest by an arrow. He looked in disbelief in the direction far beyond the arrow's reach, and fell down with his eyes closed.

More and more rockets were shot out, and the dense fire spots made people's scalps numb. They fell into the front line with a fatal whooshing wind, taking away the unlucky people who had no time to react and evade.

"You bitch, fight back!"

On the front line, Zhai Jin could see veins bulging in his forehead, his eyes filled with bloodshot eyes and he was shouting at the soldiers under his command in Jingxi.

The sergeant, who was stunned by the rocket fire, woke up from a dream. He quickly opened his bow and set an arrow. In the panic, several people did not pull the bow enough, and the arrow flew weakly.

"Kill them!"

The horses' hooves trampled wildly, trampling the grass on the ground. Di Lei took the lead, swung the sledgehammer in his hand, and rushed into the front array. Behind him, Di Yun shouted, "Brother, slow down!", urging his soldiers to move forward quickly. Crash into the formation with the most ferocious attitude.

"withstand!"

Zhai Jin's voice was a little broken. In his sight, Shangguan Yi, who was holding a long-handled hammer, rushed forward at the right moment and hit the young man with two hammers fiercely. The hammers faced each other and there was a loud bang nearby. Soldiers from both sides of the enemy covered their ears and looked painful.

"kill--"

His feet were flying, and the strong Shangguan Yi endured the discomfort and stepped forward ferociously. On the front line, Yang Zhi and Sun An were both strong men who were good at attacking head-on. At this time, when he rushed forward, he didn't know how many people were around him, and one shot , the two swords were swung, and they collided with the figure holding the side card with a bang.

Wood chips were flying, and countless swords and spears were slashing and stabbing them, trying to kill the two of them on the spot. Sun An roared "Ah——", and the two iron swords collided with them with the sound of whistling wind. He was extremely fast, and dozens of weapons in front of him and on the left and right sides were blocked. The swords and guns bounced in the air. The dragon slayer took the opportunity to step forward and wipe the necks of several people.

Next to him, a sharp blade struck, and Yang Zhi smashed the blade open with a shot, shouting at Sun An: "Both sides of you and me, tear this place apart——"

Immediately, he swung his spear and shot to the side. More officers and soldiers came in, and the sound of fighting was loud.

On the extended battle line, more people were fighting each other, waving their weapons with all their strength. The charging soldiers knocked the officers and soldiers to the ground, raised their knives and stabbed them downwards, and the sound of flesh was heard. He stood up with bloodshot eyes and screams. A spear with a red tassel came from the front and stabbed the man who had just killed the enemy to death on the spot. Later, he was also killed by the Liangshan village soldiers who caught up.

The bloody battle unfolded its ferocious face at this moment, and the smell of rust filled the air.

Zhao Li rushed into the front line with an expressionless face. He saw the Yang-character flag erected in the distance. He narrowed his eyes slightly and waved his spear to push away the approaching officer Yu Hou. He pulled the reins and tried to charge. When I went, I saw Shan Shiqi and Dong Xian also standing side by side and stepping forward. I couldn't help but become anxious. I roared repeatedly and swung my spears, but they were stopped by the officers and soldiers who were desperate for their lives.

At the other end of the line, Lu Zhishen, who was bare-headed and wearing half leather armor, laughed loudly and lifted the commander who was blocking the way into the air. Amidst the wild roars of the Thunderbolts who were accompanying him, he penetrated deep into the front line.

The entire front line was intertwined and frustrated. (End of chapter)
