Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 234 Counterattack
Chapter 230 Four

Gao Shun led his soldiers and horses all the way out of the city to pursue Yuan Shu, but Yuan Shu's army and horse had already fled, and there was still a trace there, but along the way, many baggage belonging to Yuan Shu's army and horse were found.

"Hehe, Yuan Shu really came and went quickly. He left in such a hurry that he even threw away so much luggage." Seeing the luggage discarded by Yuan Shujun along the way, Hou Cheng said proudly.

"Although this Yuan Shu is worried about Runan, it is really suspicious to flee in such embarrassment." Unlike Hou Cheng, Gao Shun was a little worried about Yuan Jun's abandonment of his luggage.

"Hehe, you don't have to worry, General. Yuan Shu escaped in embarrassment at this time, which means that General Lu Bu has already captured Runan. That's why Yuan Shu came back to help like a bereaved dog." Hou Cheng said indifferently.

"I hope you're right. By the way, how far has Dianwei's men chased him?" Gao Shun asked suddenly.

"This?" Hou Cheng thought for a while: "Dian Wei is a cavalry soldier, and he really wants to show off his recruit's combat power. At this time, he may have chased him far away." Hou Cheng said.

"This is not a good sign. The army is ordered not to take into account the enemy's luggage on the road, but to move forward quickly, and not to distance too much from Dianwei's army." Dianwei Gaoshun said with some concern.

At the same time, on both sides of the official road next to Lu Shan, Ji Ling was carefully looking at the distant pipeline, his brows were furrowed as if he was waiting for something.

"General, don't be so nervous. Our army is evacuating extremely fast. It is not so easy to rush over from Wancheng." Seeing Ji Ling's nervous look, Wei Zhongdao persuaded him.

"Hmph, Lu Bu's army killed Jiuli. Otherwise, General Yuan Shu wouldn't have suffered such a big loss." Apparently, Ji Ling still had some respect for Lu Bu, and didn't think he could easily block the Wancheng army.

"Hehe, why does General Ji Ling raise others' aspirations and destroy his prestige? Although Lu Bu is powerful, he must not be in Wancheng. As far as I know, Lu Bu is good at using cavalry. He must have taken away a lot of cavalry in his raid on Runan this time. How many cavalry can be given to Wancheng? If Wancheng’s cavalry comes to chase, there must not be many, and our army will surely win in one fell swoop and defeat the enemy. If Wancheng’s side is infantry, our army only needs to hit the head, and then Withdraw, the enemy army will not dare to chase us too fast when they see that we have an ambush, then the general will be able to withdraw safely. No matter how you calculate this battle, General Ji Ling is in a situation of steady victory, why should the general be concerned about such a thing Are you worried?" Wei Zhongdao chuckled and explained the current situation, which made Ji Ling's eyes brighten.

"Mr. is a great talent. After being instructed by Mr. Ji Lingmao, he suddenly understood. But now that our army is setting up an ambush, we are naturally not afraid of the pursuers from Wancheng. But Lu Bu has already occupied Runan. I wonder if Mr. has any good way to deal with it?" The cleverness must be Yuan Shu's number one general, some generals are talented, and he is relatively comprehensive in terms of the situation, so he immediately got to the point.

"General Ji Ling doesn't need to worry about this. My general has always been at odds with Yuan Shao. If he merged with Yuan Shao, he would have to be ordered to make wedding dresses for him. Rather than that, it would be better to open up a second battlefield in Wancheng. I heard that Sun Jian, the prefect of Changsha, is brave and has a lot of strategy, and his generals are even more brave. Sun Jian's alliance must pass through Runan this time, and Changsha is too far away from the Central Plains, so it is difficult to provide food and grass. As long as General Yuan Shu can take the opportunity to win over Sun Jian, We can also use Sun Jian’s power to fight Lu Bu. When Lu Bu has Sun Jian in front of him and General Yuan Shu in his back, he will definitely not be able to look after each other head to tail, and the defeat will only happen in an instant.” See Ji Ling’s comments on the future Still a little worried about the battle, Wei Zhongdao said his plan without reservation.

"Hahaha, my general's help from my husband is like a god's help, so why worry about failures." Hearing Wei Zhongdao's words, Ji Ling swept away his previous worries, and his whole body suddenly became more energetic.

"Look, general, there are soldiers and horses coming on the official road over there." Just after Ji Ling and Wei Zhongdao finished speaking, some soldiers reported to Ji Ling.

"Hey, these guys didn't know how to live or die, and they caught up so quickly. Could it be that they are so eager to give me credit?" Looking at the smoke and dust rising from the official road in the distance, Ji Ling smiled evilly, and obviously turned to him His soldiers and horses are determined to win.

At this time, under Mount Lu, the soldiers and horses coming from the official road were none other than Dian Wei's horse with a thousand iron chains.

"Grandma, this Yuan Shu is really fast. After chasing him all morning, he only found some baggage, but he didn't even catch anyone." After chasing him all morning, Dian Wei inevitably said angrily.You must know that this chain chain horse has been equipped by Dian Wei as a heavy cavalry since it came into Dian Wei's hands. Although this heavy cavalry is extremely lethal, it is also a heavy burden on horses and people. It is inevitable that the knights are a little tired.

"General, the terrain of Mount Lu is dangerous. Should we take a rest here and wait for General Gao Shun and the others? We have moved a lot away from them now." Looking at the tiredness of the soldiers, Cheng, who came with Dian Wei, Lian couldn't help persuading him.

"Hmph, this time I took the initiative to ask to come and chase Yuan Shu. I was thinking about whether I could take off Yuan Shu's head, but now not only did I not see Yuan Shu, I didn't even see a hair of Yuan Shu's army. If I saw Yuan Shu like this General Gao Shun, I, Dian Wei, will lose all face. I have to wait for you to wait, and I must have a harvest before I can rest." Dian Wei has been holding back a lot these days, how could he give up the pursuit so easily .

"It's just that the road to Mount Lu is rugged. If our army passes by like this, we might encounter ambushes." Looking at Mount Lu not far away, Cheng Lian still worried.

"Well, this place is indeed not suitable for chain horses to pass through. How about ordering all the cavalry to put away the chains and pass quickly." The chain horses were originally used to attack the enemy in the open plains, but now they have to pass through this place. On the mountain roads, there is no way for chain horses to start, and if there are chains connected, it is easy to get caught by the trees in the mountains.That's why Dian Wei ordered the army to put away the chains.

Here Dian Wei asked the iron chain chain horse to put away the chains, while Wei Zhongdao and Ji Ling over there looked worried.

"What's going on here? Why did they stop? Did they find us?" Seeing Dian Wei's situation here, Ji Ling asked worriedly.

"It's not like, they are chasing all the way. If they find us, they will definitely chase us and bite them desperately. In this way, they should be worried that the road ahead is not safe, so they have made some preparations." Wei Zhongdao narrowed his eyes slightly, and he has already seen Dian Wei's intention.

"So, how do we deal with it?" Ji Ling asked.

"I don't know, General, what preparations have you made?" Wei Zhongdao came over in a hurry, and now he still doesn't know what preparations Ji Ling has made.

"I asked my soldiers to fall on the road ahead, and the road has been blocked. There are ambushes on both sides of the official road. As long as the enemy rushes over, we can launch an attack immediately." Ji Ling replied.

"Has the general prepared something to light the fire?" Wei Zhongdao asked obviously dissatisfied after hearing Ji Ling's plan to ambush the soldiers.

"Well, our army prepared in a hurry, and didn't prepare any fire starters. I think it's just to stop the enemy. The mountain road has been cut off by me with rocks. As long as we deal a certain blow to the enemy army, the enemy army will definitely not dare to pursue it." Ji Ling revealed his plan.

"It's a pity, it's a pity. The mountains and forests here are dense. If you want to use fire attack, it will definitely make the enemy unforgettable. In this situation, there are some mistakes." Wei Zhongdao couldn't help but regret it.

"Look, the enemy army is coming." Ji Ling said excitedly when he saw that the cavalry who had stopped put away their chains and rushed over along the official road.

Just when Dian Wei led his thousand cavalrymen, they were rushing forward along the official road.Suddenly, I saw that the official road ahead was completely blocked by many large rocks.

"General, look ahead. Why is the official road blocked for no reason? Is there an ambush?" Seeing the rocks in front, Cheng Lian was the first to say with a change of expression.

As soon as Cheng Lian's words came out, he heard the flags on both sides of the official road unfurling, and the sound of gongs and drums one after another.Immediately afterwards, many enemy troops appeared, and for a while they surrounded Dian Wei's army tightly on both sides.

"Bold enemy army, dare to chase after them. Don't you think there is no one in Runan? Shoot me an arrow and kill me." Seeing that the time was right, Ji Ling didn't wait any longer. launched an attack.

"The general is in trouble, quickly lead the troops to retreat." Seeing that the enemy forces on both sides of the mountain road are strong, Cheng Lian hastily suggested to Dian Wei.

"Hmph, the two armies are fighting, and the brave will win. Brothers dismount and follow me to attack and kill the enemy general." Dian Wei was not moved by Cheng Lian's words. On the contrary, the enemy's ambush inspired Dian Wei's blood. Without saying a word, Dian Wei drew out his halberds, jumped off his horse, and killed Ji Ling who was on the hillside beside the official road.

"Kill, kill, kill." Under Dian Wei's influence, the thousand soldiers quickly moved closer to form a tactical team, and followed Dian Wei to jump off their horses one by one, launching a counterattack against the enemy on the mountainside.

These thousand cavalry were originally selected by Dian Wei from among the wolf cavalry. They were brave men who had been killed for a long time and were extremely powerful. In addition, they were all heavily armed troops, so they were very good at bows and arrows. Strong defense.Therefore, even though they were ambushed by the enemy, they did not suffer much loss, and instead quickly launched a counterattack.

"What, what is this?" Seeing that although Dian Wei's army was few in number, they were extremely brave, and even though they were ambushed, they didn't panic. Ji Ling felt his scalp tingling and couldn't believe it.
