Chapter 447 is in danger! (Thanks to the monthly ticket support from book friend 2024…5475~)

After confirming this, Lu Bu did not delay any longer and immediately issued an order to Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan behind him:

"Fight and retreat at the same time, and follow my main force!"

After receiving the order, Xiahou Dun and the other two began to fight and retreat.

Sun Guan, who had just been suppressed by the two Xiahou heroes, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Xu Shu saw the clues and knew that Lu Bu's army was planning to break through by force. He immediately ordered the 10,000 troops around him:
"Form the Eight-Gate Golden Lock Formation!"

As Xu Shu gave the order, the surrounding soldiers immediately understood and moved quickly.

When Lu Bu saw this scene, his face suddenly changed!
The Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation and the Eight Formation Diagram have the same origin.

In addition, Xu Shu saw through the inferior "Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation" set up by Cao Ren at a glance, so he must be able to set up a formation himself.

So when Lu Bu knew what formation Xu Shu was going to set up, he no longer hesitated and immediately ordered the entire army to charge!
Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan in the rear heard the order, immediately turned their horses around and led their subordinates to catch up with the main force.

It would take some time to set up the formation, so Xu Shu immediately said to Wen Chou:
"General Wen Chou, lead 10,000 soldiers to fight the enemy and delay the enemy as much as possible!"

Wen Chou suddenly perked up and was finally able to take action.

He immediately led 10,000 soldiers without forming a battle formation and rushed towards Lu Bu's army.

Looking at Wen Chou who was leading his troops charging, Lu Bu was about to step forward and fight him personally.

However, Yan Liang suddenly jumped out from the side and went straight towards Wen Chou.

Seeing this scene, Lu Bu naturally understood the complex hostile emotions of his good brother on the battlefield, so he let the other side go.

Yan Liang held Wen Chou back while he led the army to directly slaughter the enemy soldiers!
But Lu Bu still shouted:
"Soldiers, don't fight too long! Quickly break through Wen Chou's army and attack Xu Shu's army!
"Don't let them set up the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation in full!"

The location where Xu Shu and his companions were located was exactly at the exit of a flat terrain.

It is quite difficult to directly bypass the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array.

Therefore, it is necessary to break through it before the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation is formed!
Otherwise, once the formation is formed, it will not be difficult to break it, but it will definitely take a lot of time and may even increase the loss of one's own troops!
Thinking of this, Lu Bu personally led a cavalry to accelerate the charge.

With him leading the team personally, swinging his Fang Tian Hua Ji continuously forward, coupled with his fast-moving Red Hare, no one could stop him for even a second!
At this time, a burly general with a blue cherry helmet on his head, Xie Ci Li, led his troops to attack, trying to resist Lu Bu, and shouted loudly:
"Xiyuan Captain Chunyu Qiong is here! Lü Bu, you bastard, don't run away!"

When he heard the name Chunyu Qiong, Lu Bu immediately thought of the key figure in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that led to Yuan Shao's defeat!
Although the Romance of the Three Kingdoms says that Chunyu Qiong was drunk and caused the burning of Wuchao.

But in history, it was actually because Cao's army fought bravely under the personal command of Cao Cao that they finally defeated Chunyu Qiong!

Chunyu Qiong’s own strength is good, but that’s all.

In front of Lu Bu, he is still a clown!

Seeing Chunyu Qiong approaching quickly, Lu Bu spun his Fang Tian Hua Ji around his wrist.

Then he used the thick calluses on his palms to scratch the dragon pattern on the halberd handle, causing the entire halberd to rotate at high speed!
When Chunyu Qiong entered the attack range, Lu Bu suddenly grasped the halberd in the air, and the tip of the halberd spun like a poisonous dragon drill and stabbed out fiercely!

Chunyu Qiong quickly raised his sword to block, but the high-speed rotating halberd blade suddenly spun Chunyu Qiong's weapon away when it hit!

Then, in front of Chunyu Qiong's horrified gaze, the tip of the halberd instantly cut off half of his head!
Chun Yuqiong instinctively raised his hand and touched his head.

Instead of touching the helmet or the hair, I touched a soft and sticky liquid.

The next moment, he suddenly realized something and fell off his horse!

As Chunyu Qiong was killed in one blow, the soldiers he brought with him were frightened and kept retreating!

Lu Bu led thousands of cavalry to successfully break through Wen Chou's army and headed straight for Xu Shu's army!
Xu Shu, who was in the battle formation, was extremely shocked when he saw Lu Bu killing Wen Chou's army directly!
Why does it feel like this guy's strength has increased again? Chun Yuqiong had recently fought with General Guan and was able to last twenty rounds before being defeated.

But under Lu Bu's hands, he couldn't even last a single round...

Did General Guan let him go, or is Chunyu Qiong simply a waste?
Xu Shu didn't have time to think about it.

At present, the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation has not yet taken shape, but Lu Bu has already arrived, and there is no one else capable enough to stop him.

If we try to force the formation again, I'm afraid the enemy will disrupt it before it's even formed.

At that time, these soldiers in formation will only become the victims of slaughter and will have almost no power to resist!

So Xu Shu made a prompt decision and waved the battle flag in his hand quickly:
"Set up a circular formation!"

The Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation is a more advanced formation based on the circular formation.

At this moment, the situation was suddenly simplified, and it was naturally easy for the soldiers.

Before Lu Bu arrived with thousands of cavalry, the circular formation was quickly formed!
The outermost shield soldiers arranged their shields one by one, forming a defensive formation like an iron barrel!

When Lu Bu saw the enemy suddenly change their formation, he knew that the other side did not have time to set up the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation, so he could only retreat to the next best option.

But as for the circular formation, he was naturally very familiar with it as he had used it to tie down Guan Yu's troops in the Battle of Pei State.

The circular formation is very defensive but weak offensively.

Moreover, there is Xu Shu’s main formation in the formation, which is three times stronger than the ordinary circular formation.

The most important thing is that this is a large circular formation composed of 10,000 people!
But Lu Bu knew very well that there were only three or four thousand cavalrymen following him.

Even if he could break through the outer perimeter of the formation and charge in, he would probably be surrounded by 10,000 enemy troops and suffer heavy losses.

Therefore, Lu Bu had no choice but to lead the cavalry to stop.

He looked at the airtight formation and thought that Xu Shu was indeed a master of formations.

With Zhuge Liang's training, his military capabilities became even more impressive.

Breaking in by force is not a solution, but Lu Bu also used this opportunity to confirm that Xu Shu was deliberately delaying time!

The enemy will surely receive reinforcements soon!
The only thing they could do now was to fight back, defeat Wen Chou's army, and then withdraw from other directions.

The enemy's reinforcements will most likely come from the northwest.

Therefore, the southeast direction is the best retreat route!

Having made up his mind, Lu Bu did not waste a minute. He immediately turned his horse around and led the cavalry to attack the back of Wen Chou's army again.

If we could destroy Wen Chou's 10,000 troops and Sun Guan's more than 10,000 troops at this time.

Even if the enemy has reinforcements arriving by then, they will not be able to pose an effective threat to them.

Even if I really can't win, can't I still escape?

Thinking of this, Lu Bu had already led his cavalry to the rear of Wen Chou's army.

Wen Chou was being held back by Yan Liang at the moment and was unable to effectively command the army.

Lu Bu suddenly led his troops to attack from the rear, instantly making it difficult for his army to take care of both ends and putting it in danger!
