Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 425: Grateful! (Thanks to AQ Chenyi, Jumen, and Yuyu for their monthly tickets~)
When Lu Bu learned the news brought by Hu Du, he immediately chose to believe it without saying a word.

He immediately mobilized the 5,000 newly-added Bingzhou cavalry.

He personally led the team out of the South City Gate and headed straight to the southwest to ambush near the river.

And the other side.

Yong Kai and Gao Dingyuan had just escaped from the city with more than 10,000 remnant troops when they suddenly heard a crazy chase from behind.

Gao Dingyuan's expression suddenly changed.

Didn’t I set up a strategy to confuse the enemy? Why didn’t it work?
But he didn't have time to think about it, and he was in no mood to turn around and fight.

He hurriedly protected Yong Kai and two thousand cavalrymen and headed towards the river in the southwest.

There were boats they had prepared in advance, which could quickly cross the Binhe River and return to Qianghe County.

By then, we can regroup and continue to fight against Lu Bu and Meng Huo.

Hu Du led thousands of infantrymen and only chased and killed the enemy infantrymen, ignoring the cavalrymen such as Yong Kai who had already escaped.

After all, they came out of the alley and had no horses to ride, so they couldn't catch up even if they wanted to.

In the end, Hu Du's side killed countless enemies and captured countless prisoners.

Seeing that their lord had abandoned them, Yong Kai's infantrymen threw down their weapons and surrendered.

Hu Du returned with a full load of more than 5,000 prisoners!

Yong Kai and Gao Dingyuan led more than 2,000 cavalrymen and rushed to Binhe.

Seeing Binhe not far ahead, Yong Kai was immediately surprised.

However, just as they were about to stop by the river, the sound of arrows breaking through the air suddenly came from the sky.

Yong Kai and others were horrified to find that not far from the river bank, a cavalry was rushing towards them rapidly!

The arrows in the sky instantly fell on the soldiers on their side.

Many soldiers reacted slowly and were hit by arrows, screaming in pain!
Yong Kai was not injured under Gao Dingyuan's protection, but he had no time to board the boat, so he could only turn his horse's head and flee to the west!

Only a few hundred riders could barely keep up.

At this moment, a man and a horse, like red fireworks in the dark night, approached them rapidly!

The horse under his crotch was like a gust of wind, and quickly caught up with the last cavalry of Yong Kai's army.

Then, the fan-like Fang Tian Huaji hit the shoulders of Yong Kai's cavalrymen one by one, knocking them all off their horses!
But Lu Bu did not kill these ordinary soldiers. After all, they could become his cavalry in the future.

Lu Bu chased after Yong Kai with a clear goal.

If we can capture and kill Yong Kai here, the Zangke County in the south will collapse without a fight!
Gao Dingyuan heard screams getting closer and closer from behind and immediately turned around to look.

But he was horrified to see that an enemy general was approaching him alone!

With such a flying speed, could it be the legendary "Flying General" - Lu Bu!?

He quickly shouted to his subordinates in shock:

"Quick! Stop him!"

However, when he heard Gao Dingyuan asking him to die, he looked back and saw that Lu Bu was just knocking his own soldiers off their horses without killing them.

These cavalrymen were no longer willing to fight for Yong Kai and Gao Dingyuan. They turned their horses around and fled in other directions.

Seeing these guys deserting in front of them, Yong Kai and Gao Dingyuan were so angry that their faces turned blue.

At this moment, Yong Kai suddenly said to Gao Dingyuan:

"You...you go and kill Lu Bu for me!"

Gao Dingyuan's eyes widened immediately, and he pointed at himself with his index finger in disbelief:
"I?"

Are you not mistaken?
You want me, an ordinary and unknown general, to kill the most powerful general in the world?

What's the difference between that and courting death?
At this moment, Gao Dingyuan realized that in Yong Kai's heart, he was just a chess piece that could be abandoned at any time.

But he is not Yong Kai after all. He has always been a loyal person.

In this situation, even though he knew he was no match for Lu Bu, he was still willing to risk his life to buy some time for Yong Kai!
Thinking of this, he said no more, turned his horse's head and rushed straight towards Lu Bu!

Looking at an enemy general rushing towards him, although Lu Bu didn't know what Yong Kai looked like, he was clear that the one who escaped must be Yong Kai.

Therefore, as he looked at the enemy general approaching him, a cold light flashed in his eyes and his aura rose steadily.

When the enemy general approaches him, his halberd suddenly rushes out like a dragon!
The tip of the halberd instantly pierced Gao Dingyuan's neck, knocking him off his horse!
Before Gao Dingyuan died, there was still a trace of disbelief in his eyes.

Is this the strength of the world's most powerful general?

It turns out that he is not someone who can touch porcelain...

Naturally, Lu Bu wouldn't care what Gao Dingyuan thought.

He casually threw his body away, then quickly rushed behind Yong Kai and hit him on the back with his halberd, knocking him off his horse!

"what!"

Yong Kai fell off his horse and his head was bleeding, but he did not die.

Lü Bu's horse stopped in front of Yong Kai, and he pointed his Fang Tian Hua Ji at his nose and asked:

"Are you Yong Kai?"

Yong Kai quickly shook his head and waved his hands:

"No, no, no, I am not Yong Kai. I am just a general under Yong Kai..."

"Oh?" Lu Bu raised his lips slightly, "So, you are of no use to me."

As he said that, Lu Bu raised his Fang Tian Hua Ji again and was about to smash it down.

Yong Kai's face changed drastically, and he waved his hand again and said:
"No, no, no! I am, I am Yong Kai!"

Looking at Yong Kai's cowardly look, a trace of contempt flashed in Lu Bu's eyes.

Then he ordered his own soldiers who came from behind to tie up the guy.

Afterwards, Lu Bu and his men escorted hundreds of prisoners and returned to Zhuti City in high spirits.

When Lu Bu captured Yong Kai alive, he immediately asked Hu Du to confirm Yong Kai's identity.

Afterwards, he rewarded Hu Du, who had made the greatest contribution, and promoted him to the position of county magistrate of Zhuti County, in charge of the affairs of the prefect.

Hu Du was also quite surprised and finally confirmed that he had met a wise leader.

With Yong Kai being captured and the vassal state of Qianwei being taken down, the news soon reached Zhu Bao, who was fighting with Meng Huo.

Zhu Bao immediately realized that the situation was hopeless and took the initiative to surrender to Meng Huo.

Lu Bu led his army into Zangke County and finally met the legendary barbarian king Meng Huo.

Meng Huo bowed respectfully to Lu Bu:

"Meng Huo, the leader of the barbarians, greets Lord Chu!"

Lu Bu personally held Meng Huo's shoulders and seemed quite polite:
"You are too polite, King Barbarian. Yong Kai is now a prisoner.

"I intend to give you full management of the four counties of Zangke, Yizhou, Yongchang, and Yuexi. What do you think?"

Hearing this, the young Barbarian King was immediately flattered, but he still humbly declined:

"How can I occupy such a vast territory?"

After all, the area of ​​one Zangke County is almost equal to the area of ​​the three southwestern counties.

Meng Huo originally thought that it was a blessing from heaven that Lu Bu allowed him to continue to command the three southwestern counties.

But I didn't expect that the other party was willing to hand over the management of Zangke County to me...

For a moment, Meng Huo was so grateful to Lu Bu that he bowed down to him!
