The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 117

"Ugh……"

On the contrary, Cao Cao's attitude was quite strange. It was not until Sun Jian led the people away that he let out a long sigh.

"Brother, why is this?"

"Ziyu, I don't know that Dong Zhuo hijacked the emperor and went to Chang'an?"

"good."

Wei Tao felt it faintly in his heart, but nodded calmly on his face.

"Okay, thank you so much, I left 500 people to calm the fire. I still have something to do, let's take a step."

Perhaps it was because the coalition forces were still hesitant to move forward at this time, so Cao Cao was quite discouraged and did not invite Wei Tao to go with him to rescue the emperor, and led the army alone.

"Gong Jin, Meng De is sure to lose if he goes here. Li Wenyou under Dong Zhuo's tent is a first-class adviser, and he must have expected someone to pursue him. What do you think I should do?"

Seeing Cao Cao leaving in a hurry, Wei Tao sighed softly.

"I know Meng De's temperament. What's more, it's not that he doesn't know how bad the crime is. He went there resolutely, but he didn't want to hurt me."

"Brother, will you listen to my words?"

Zhou Yu asked after a slight silence, and continued when he saw Wei Tao nodding.

"Brother has gained a lot this time, and he should do his best for the big man. If he is willing, there will be a total of one thousand cavalry from the headquarters, and after that, it must be that Cao Mengdeluo If you are defeated, when the ambushes are about to retreat, if you come out by force, you will definitely defeat Dong Jun."

Wei Tao was also a little surprised that Zhou Yu would persuade him to do so, and he was even slightly taken aback.

"Okay! This place is handed over to Gongjin, I'll go and see how Dong Jun is doing."

Although all those who came with Zhou Yu were cavalry, they were less than a thousand. It took half a day for the soldiers to be transferred, but this time just allowed Wei Tao to recover.

"drive!"

At this time, the sky was completely dark, only a little bit of starlight sprinkled by the moonlight, Wei Tao did not hide his whereabouts, and the leader rushed after him.

Before Wei Tao could catch up with Cao Cao, he encountered a group of rout troops rushing towards him. Wei Tao ordered someone to arrest one of them and question him.

"what's going on?"

"My lord, General Cao was defeated by Lu Bu's ambush, and I fled in all directions. I don't know why I escaped here."

This person had obviously seen Wei Tao, so he said it right away.

"However, for some reason, Lu Bu's army did not pursue desperately. If the pursuers hadn't retreated by themselves just now, I'm afraid it would be difficult for us to escape."

"Sure enough, as Gongjin expected..."

Wei Tao sighed lightly, and immediately gave the order.

"The whole army obeys the order and kills!"

"kill!"

Many soldiers responded in unison, and rushed out forcibly, and the land of several miles arrived in an instant.

This time was just when Lu Bu had just withdrawn his troops, and the originally neat team had become very scattered. When Wei Tao suddenly attacked, even Lu Bu was in a daze for a moment, unable to react.

"kill!"

Wei Tao was the first to attack Lu Bu's troops.

But this time only Dian Wei was by his side, and Wei Tao didn't dare to kill Lu Bu, lest he would anger the god of killing.

Under the charge, nearly a hundred people died directly under Wei Tao's cavalry.

"Damn it, Li Ru didn't expect Wei Tao to attack!"

Lu Bu was also annoyed, but at this moment the formation was in disarray. Even though Lu Bu thought that his ability to control cavalry was unparalleled in the world, he knew that it would not be easy to regain his strength at this time.

Even so, Lu Bu was Lu Bu after all, and he knew that even if he wanted to retreat, there was absolutely no reason for people to attack behind his back, and the loss would be even greater.

So after regaining consciousness, Lu Bu shook the reins, and immediately drove the red rabbit horse to attack. With such a movement of Lu Bu, the entourage around him also followed suit, unexpectedly gathering a small group of troops in just a moment.

If the charge continues like this, it will not be difficult to gather the scattered army back into formation.

"Lu Bu, I'll fight to the death!"

But at this moment Dian Wei roared and rushed towards Lu Bu, but Dian Wei saw that something was wrong, even though he knew that he was definitely Lu Bu's opponent, he didn't care too much.

Fortunately, Wei Tao also noticed this, and immediately ordered a hundred cavalry to charge accordingly.

"clang!"

At this time, it was not a one-on-one duel, it was more about strength and strength, which was right for Dian Wei's strengths, but if so, it was just a fight with Lu Bu.

"Damn!"

But at this time, the momentum that Lu Bu had just gathered suddenly stopped, and it was no longer the previous situation of gathering people's hearts to attack.

"withdraw!"

But I have to say that Lu Bu was also decisive, and he immediately gave the order when he saw that there was no chance to fight back, and it was not just that, Lu Bu personally came to the rear.

Wei Tao also knew that Lu Bu had a chasing red rabbit horse, and if he really wanted to leave, no one here could stop him, so seeing that he could no longer do meritorious service, he immediately stopped all the soldiers.

"General Fengxian, I don't want to talk too much about everything in the past, but Dong Zhuo was a tyrannical man. Although he had unlimited power at the time, he was not the master of General Fengxian."

After Wei Tao stopped the fighting between the two armies, he stepped forward slightly, cupped his hands at Lu Bu and said.

"Furthermore, although General Fengxian is the most brave in the world, when it comes to scheming, he is inferior to others. If there is a way to separate people, it must be impossible to guard against. If the general is calculated by others, then Dong Zhuo must be suspicious of the general, and the general needs to be cautious. .”

Wei Tao didn't intend to subdue Lu Bu or anything, and since Diao Chan could no longer be Wang Yun's righteous daughter, Wang Yun might not be able to play tricks on her.

As for these words, just looking at the arrogance on Lu Bu's face, Wei Tao understood that Lu Bu didn't listen at all.

"Ziyu, your skills have been improving recently, especially the halberd technique, but you got it from the dead man Wang Yue?"

To Wei Tao's surprise, although he dismissed Wei Tao's words, Lu Bu spoke up.

"That's right, I didn't know that before. It wasn't until I faced General Fengxian some time ago that I realized that my halberd technique is vaguely related to the general's. Could it be the halberd technique used by the general?"

Wei Tao had nothing to hide, so he just asked out the doubts in his heart.

"That's right, this halberd method should have been passed down by my master, and I must have entrusted Wang Yue to pass it on to the right person."

Speaking of this, a trace of unwillingness flashed in Lu Bu's eyes, how could a person like Lu Bu allow himself to be inferior, but when he saw Wei Tao, Lu Bu smiled again.

"However, the halberd technique I use now surpasses that set of halberd techniques. It is my divine halberd of the Lu clan, invincible in the world!"

Seeing what Lu Bu said, Wei Tao had no choice but to remain silent. Although there were some big words, the battle at Hulaoguan had already shown that in today's one-on-one world, no one is a match for Lu Bu. The term "invincible under heaven" is justified.

"I don't know why General Fengxian said this?"

Wei Tao only recovered after being silent for a while, and asked Lu Bu calmly.

"Since you also inherited this set of halberd techniques, then I don't want you to humiliate it. If you are not capable enough, wouldn't others laugh at me, Lu Bu?"

Lu Bu's expression sharpened suddenly, he stared at Wei Tao and said.

"If that's the case, you might as well die under my Lu Bu halberd."

After Lu Bu finished speaking, he pulled the red rabbit horse back, and showed his back to Wei Tao, as if he was not worried that Wei Tao would attack from behind.

"General Fengxian is indeed General Fengxian, and this kind of arrogance can be said to be the best in the world."

After seeing Lu Bu leave as expected, Wei Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"let's go!"

Wei Tao naturally returned to Luoyang at this time. Although Luoyang had been burned to nothing, the supplies he had obtained before were quite a lot, and it was not easy to transport them back to Changshan.

However, Wei Tao is confident that with his own personal escort, nothing will happen. With this batch of food and grass funding, no matter how recruiting troops, he may or may not be able to compete with Yuan Shao.

As for what to do if he can occupy Jizhou and become the hero of a state, Wei Tao is not sure, he can only take one step at a time.

However, when Wei Tao returned to Luoyang, he immediately realized that the situation was quite wrong. Zhou Yu led his own troops and was surrounded by a group of soldiers. Judging by his posture, if there was a disagreement, he might have to fight immediately.

"Stop! What happened?"

When Wei Tao came back, his sword was on the verge of breaking out, and he immediately shouted when he saw this.

"Yuan Gonglu, this is your official residence and cavalry general. Since you have sent my subordinates, why hide your head and show your tail and dare not show up?"

At this time, Wei Tao was also very annoyed, but he was not polite in his words, and directly named Yuan Shu. As for what offended him or not, he couldn't control so much.

"Humph!"

Seeing Wei Tao like this, Yuan Shu finally appeared under a group of guards, and said coldly as soon as he appeared.

"I am in charge of transporting logistics, food and salaries. These food supplies should be under my control. Why not send someone to receive them? On the contrary, your subordinates dare to stop me. Aren't you afraid of being dealt with by military law?"

Hearing Yuan Shu speak like this, even Wei Tao was annoyed for a while. Yuan Shu's words were preposterous, and he wanted to swallow his own gains!
"Brother, not long ago, there was a dispute between Sun Jian and Yuan Benchu, the leader of the alliance. It seems that Sun Jian got the jade seal of the country. But Sun Jian denied it and vowed that Yuan Benchu ​​should not pursue it too much."

As expected of Zhou Yu, he didn't even look at the many soldiers surrounded in front of him, and only whispered in Wei Tao's ear.

"However, Sun Jian left the camp overnight. I am afraid that this is probably true. Now Luoyang has been destroyed, and the emperor has been plundered to Chang'an. After this incident, I am afraid that the name of the coalition army has survived in name only, and the princes of all walks of life are ready to disperse. Only this Yuan Gonglu is narrow-minded and greedy, seeing that our army has plundered a lot of food and supplies from Dong Zhuo, he just wants to steal it, so that's the case."
