Chapter 444 The two heroes of Xiahou!

As night falls.

Lu Bu's army began to quietly evacuate the camp.

They had no plan to dismantle the camp as well, as the noise would likely alert the enemy troops in the city.

Although Lu Bu intended to lure the enemy, the deliberate noise he made seemed a bit deliberate.

Only if the acting is genuine can people be convinced enough.

However, he believed that the enemy would chase after them soon.

What we need to consider now is how to fight the opponent head-on.

Only by fighting head-on will they have a chance to deplete the enemy's strength.

But the enemy will certainly be very cautious.

In the absence of a military advantage, they would most likely choose to consume them from a distance rather than engage in close combat.

Faced with this situation, Lu Bu had already asked his soldiers to prepare enough shields in advance.

At that time, as long as the enemy shot arrows, they would immediately raise their shields to block.

Once the enemy's consumption strategy fails to work, in a hurry, you can only choose close combat.

That will be their chance to counterattack!

Not long after, Lu Bu heard the sound of hurried horse hooves coming from behind.

He looked behind him and saw two armies of tens of thousands of people rushing out of the west gate and east gate of Kaiyang City at the same time, quickly chasing after them.

Lu Bu immediately ordered the shield soldiers to get ready and asked the soldiers to speed up their escape.

Sun Guan and Wu Dun in the rear became anxious when they saw the enemy fleeing quickly, and immediately led the cavalry towards the enemy.

After entering the range of bows and arrows, Sun Guan and Wu Dun immediately ordered the archers to shoot at the enemy.

When Lu Bu heard the sound of the arrow breaking through the air, he was not surprised at all. He immediately ordered his soldiers to stop and shrink their formation.

At the same time, they squatted on the spot and connected the shields above their heads to form a huge and impenetrable shield wall.

As Sun Guan and Wu Dun's arrows fell, the metal arrowheads continued to collide with the metal shield, making a series of clanging sounds.

Of course, there were also wooden shields that were pierced by arrows, and soon the light wooden shields became very heavy!
Because Lu Bu had made preparations and responses in advance, the casualties on Lu Bu's side were only one or two hundred when the arrows rained down.

However, the 20,000 troops led by Sun Guan and Wu Dun also took the opportunity to close the distance.

However, they also followed Pang Tong's instructions and did not rashly approach Lu Bu's army.

Instead, he adjusted the angle and continued to use arrows for long-range attacks!
As soon as Lu Bu looked up, he heard the sound of arrows again.

He could only hold down Red Hare's head again and hide under the soldiers' shields with it.

After another wave of arrows fell, Sun Guan and Wu Dun looked towards the direction of the enemy.

Because it rained during the day, there is no moon tonight and the visibility is not high.

They couldn't see the enemy's situation clearly with their naked eyes.

However, judging from the weakening of the screams, the enemy should have blocked a lot of arrows with their shields and did not lose too many men.

If we continue like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to consume the enemy forces even if we run out of arrows.

Instead, it would waste the strategic material of arrows. Therefore, Sun Guan and Wu Dun decided to stop for a while and continue shooting arrows after the enemy took action.

But what they didn't expect was that Lu Bu took advantage of this opportunity and instead of escaping, he asked the soldiers to pick up the arrows that fell around.

As long as the arrow is not damaged, it will become their weapon for counterattack!
By the time Sun Guan and Wu Dun reacted, Lu Bu's archers had already counterattacked!

When the sound of thousands of arrows breaking through the air was heard, Sun Guan and Wu Dun finally reacted. Their faces changed at the same time, and they hurriedly asked the soldiers to raise their shields to protect themselves.

The two of them immediately dismounted and hid behind the soldiers' raised shields.

They thought the enemy was just shooting arrows, but what they didn't expect was that the ground suddenly shook slightly.

Then the sound of enemy horse hooves suddenly came!
Sun Guan immediately realized that the enemy cavalry was rushing towards them under the cover of archers!

Sun Guan's expression suddenly became serious.

It is truly an army led by Lu Bu himself, they are so well-trained and well-commissioned!
They couldn't hide any longer. Otherwise, if the enemy approached and they hadn't mounted their horses yet, it would be very dangerous.

So Sun Guan and Wu Dun immediately stood up and mounted their horses again.

Fortunately, as the enemy approached, the enemy archers stopped shooting, otherwise it would have been easy to accidentally injure friendly forces.

Sun Guan and Wu Dun also took this opportunity to loudly remind the soldiers to prepare for battle!

It would be impossible to turn around and run away at this time. They have come out to chase the enemy and are ready to fight head-on.

In order to approach them quickly, the enemy must lead the cavalry to charge first, with the infantry following behind.

They have both cavalry and infantry, so they will not be at a disadvantage in terms of manpower in the short term.

Although Sun Guan and Wu Dun's on-the-spot command was a little lacking, their strength lies in charging into the front and leading the charge, showing great bravery!
Following the two men's order, they personally led the army behind them and charged towards the cavalry led by Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan!
Xiahou Dun was also extremely excited when he saw the enemy general.

He had been defeated repeatedly by Cao Cao before, and was later forced to hand over military power to Yuan Shao, and had almost no chance to fight.

Now that I'm under Lu Bu's command and finally have the opportunity to fight on the battlefield, how can I not be excited?
Seeing the enemy general leading the charge, he was extremely brave.

He could not restrain his fierce spirit and rushed towards Sun Guan with a spear in his hand!

"Enemy general! Do you dare to fight with me, Xiahou Yuanrang?!"

Sun Guan, holding a long spear, felt the enemy general's power and immediately looked in the direction of the shouting.

He saw a fierce enemy general with a scar on his eye rushing towards him quickly.

Sun Guan sneered:
"Why wouldn't your grandfather Sun Zhongtai dare to do that?"

As he said that, he raised his horse and drew his spear, using the length of the spear blade to stab the enemy general in the face!
Xiahou Dun turned his head and swept his spear out!

However, Sun Guan was extremely ferocious. He left his left hand free and used his arm to punch.

He punched the gun handle and directly bounced Xiahou Dun's spear back!
Sun Guan then took advantage of the victory to pursue the enemy. After crossing paths with Xiahou Dun's horse, he quickly turned his lance and attacked Xiahou Dun's ribs!

But what Sun Guan didn't expect was that Xiahou Dun moved his body to the side and not only dodged the attack.

Instead, he clamped the handle of the spear under his ribs and swung the spear in his right hand onto Sun Guan's shoulder.

The force was so strong that even with the protection of the shoulder armor, Sun Guan still spat out a mouthful of blood, with a trace of horror in his eyes!
Xiahou Yuanrang and Xiahou Dun are truly powerful generals under Cao Cao!
But I didn't expect that he would join Lu Bu's army and even work so hard.

It seems that they are very resentful towards Liu Bei’s army!
While Xiahou Dun was barely suppressing Sun Guan, Xiahou Yuan on the other side suddenly shouted and chopped off Wu Dun's head with one knife!
