Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 12 Lu Bu among the people
Midsummer night, the evening breeze is just right, people can't help but miss the bed.

Cao Hong, who had been marching for three consecutive days, chose a valley to set up camp, and prepared to recuperate overnight, first to reconfirm the situation at Xiaopei's end, and second, to prepare for the big battle.

On the hills outside the valley, Lu Bu looked at the piles of bonfires, and preliminarily judged that the number of people was consistent with what Wei Yue reported.

"Marquis Wen, it seems that Cao Jun is exhausted from the hasty march for days, and there are only two teams of sentry cavalry around." Gao Shun pointed to two teams of night patrol sergeants not far away.

There is no danger to defend such a temporary camp. Usually enough sentry cavalry will be sent out. Perhaps Cao Jun is confident that no one will notice.

Who would have thought that they would appear so suddenly.

"Boping, you lead a team of cavalry and attack from the west. I will attack from the east, and immediately approach the Chinese army's tent. Kill the generals and capture the flag to chill the morale of the army!"

When marching and fighting, Lu Bu is a good fighter, his face is like sinking water, calm as if he is doing an insignificant thing.

Slaughtering the barbarians earned the title of flying general in those years, and the battle against King Dong Qin allowed him to accumulate his experience and further improve his military quality.

All these have justified Lu Bu's name among others.

The two each took [-] horses and acted separately.

This kind of sneak attack is particularly fast. Lu Bu did not bring infantry, and all [-] cavalry under his command sent out.

Since it was a temporary camp, there was no stockade, so there was no so-called gate. Lu Bu and his cavalry saw that the distance was almost the same, so they suddenly accelerated.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

After the sentinel in charge of night patrol found out, he immediately rang the gong on his body as an early warning.

In the next breath, the guard who was beating the gong was hit by an arrow in the throat, and the force of the arrow carried him away.

Cao Jun, who was awakened by the gong, rushed out of the tent with a ring-shouldered knife. Before he could figure out what happened, Fang Tian's painted halberd rushed towards him.

The chest of the person who was shot was deflated, flying out like a kite with a broken string, and blood mist sprayed wantonly from his mouth.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Don't mess up!"

Cao's troops were all elites, and they hadn't removed their armor while sleeping, so they could react so quickly.

However, every time they gather into a group and want to fight back, a fiery red horse that is taller than ordinary war horses will charge towards them, accompanied by patches of cold halberd shadows, many people don't even see it clearly The appearance of a person fell to the ground clutching his throat.

"Uncle, it's not good, there are cavalry attacking the camp, attacking from both sides, the camp is in chaos now!"

The young Cao Xiu was attacked by a sneak attack the first time he followed Cao Hong to the battlefield to gain experience, and his lips trembled uncontrollably when he spoke.

"Don't mess up! If you mess up, you will lose!"

Cao Hong, who had experienced several battles in Xingyang and Puyang, remained calm in the face of danger. He took a big knife and rushed out of the army tent to look around. Repel the enemy, you take people to Dongzhai!"

"Here!"

The two mounted their horses and led the cavalry into action.

"Cao Wenlie! Cao Wenlie! Cao Wenlie!"

While galloping, Cao Xiu imitated Cao Hong and yelled his name, so that the panicked soldiers knew that the general was still there and there was no need to panic.

Wherever they went, the sergeants had indeed become much calmer.

On the battlefield, Lü Bu followed his usual tactics, taking the lead and using the advantage of the red rabbit horse to rush into the crowd and tear a hole, and the cavalry behind him rushed up immediately, and could quickly annex one by one.

"Thieves will use their names!"

Cao Xiu, who had defeated four cavalrymen in a row, found a feeling that he was not afraid of Lu Bu, who was obviously bigger than himself.

"Lu Fengxian!"

Accompanied by the roar of the tiger, seven Cao Jun were swept away by Fang Tian's painted halberd and flew out, leaving a trail of blood after landing.

The moment Lu Fengxian yelled out the three words, it was obvious that all Cao Jun's movements were slowed down for a beat.

Cao Xiu gasped, and suddenly felt a biting chill coming down his spine.

Among the people, Lu Bu is an insurmountable peak in front of the generals in the world.

During the Battle of Puyang, Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan, Li Dian, and Le Jin surrounded and suppressed him, and they couldn't kill him.

Cao Xiu was on the battlefield for the first time, and it was also the first time he met Lu Bu, but when these two things were combined, what we wove was a nightmare.

Before he came back to his senses, Lu Bu had already come towards him, and Fang Tian's painted halberd left a deep mark on the ground.

Cao Xiu clenched his teeth and let out an angry roar, emboldened, and thrust his spear towards Lu Bu's face.

Lu Bu didn't dodge. Fang Tian drew his halberd and shot first, and knocked the spear crookedly. It was just a simple collision, and the buzzing sound from the gun body made the silver spear almost fall out of his hand.

Damn, what a domineering force!
When he was about to withdraw his spear to launch a second attack, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, then the world began to turn, and the surrounding voices began to fade away.

In a blur, he saw a headless corpse falling straight from the horse, and then the world fell into darkness.

"The main general is dead, the soldiers follow me and rush in!"

With the death of Cao Xiu, the morale of Lu Bu's army exploded, shouting: "Wenhou is invincible, Wenhou is invincible, Wenhou is invincible!"

Lu Bu led the way on his horse, his fiery red cloak buzzed, and the halberd flew by for anyone who stood in the way, and the blood mist filled the air.

In the chaotic battlefield, he used his own power to fight a bloody road and lead the way for the cavalry behind him.

Not long after, they arrived at the Chinese army tent, cut off the flying "Cao" sign, and took advantage of the opportunity to set aside the bonfire in front of them. The fire engulfed the entire Chinese army tent at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Clang clang ~"

A rush of gongs sounded, which was the signal to retreat.

Lu Bu wiped the blood stains on his face, and the evening wind blew with the smell of burnt linen. He laughed happily and raised his halberd, "Kill me!"

Chasing and killing is necessary, he doesn't care about the capture, he doesn't care about Cao Jun's accompanying and not carrying luggage, naturally it is impossible to loot any supplies, but he wants to tell Cao Cao that he will pay a price for attacking me!
That night, Cao Jun was chased and killed for thirty miles, causing countless casualties.

In the early morning of the next day, Gao Shunxing hurriedly ran to Lu Bu who was sitting under the tree with his eyes closed, and said with a grin:
"Marquis Wen, four thousand and three hundred and sixty four horses from Cao's army were captured in this battle!"

War horses are the most precious resource, and they are even more valuable in Xuzhou, which does not produce war horses.

This batch of war horses is of great help to Lv Bu, who has been blocked by Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in the west and north.

Lu Bu also laughed. He stood up and breathed a sigh of relief. With this batch of horses, in time he could form another team of cavalry.

Yunwen, the victory in this battle is all thanks to you.

I will remember.

"How are you brothers?" After a while, Lu Bu looked at the excited Gao Shun.

"110 and seven people were killed, and more than three hundred were injured." Gao Shun's face was full of distress.

At the cost of more than 400 casualties, defeating 1000 Cao troops and seizing more than [-] horses was a bumper harvest, but this time it was a sneak attack after all, Gao Shun thought it was too much.

"This time is different from the usual ones. All the elites of Cao's army came here. Such casualties are already a great victory."

Lu Bu patted him on the shoulder, "Bury the brothers well."
