Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes

"Brother, run!" Cao Hong saw that Lü Bu's armor had come into view, so he decisively rode back to fight back and prepare to resist Lü Bu, even though he knew that he could not resist Lü Bu for long.

But he knew he could die, but Cao Cao absolutely could not die!

Then Cao Hong was defeated in twenty moves, and he also broke through the barrier of internal energy leaving the body.

Cao Cao was almost in despair. He now realized how terrifying it was to face Lü Bu on the battlefield. He was about to die before he could even achieve his goal!

Meanwhile, Lü Bu was still pondering the words in the letter. The plans Chen Xi and Jiang Shu had devised were sure to succeed, leaving him no choice but to be careful.

However, after glancing at Cao Cao, he thought, "This is a great achievement! I'll take it first."

However, what he didn't realize was that he was gradually becoming disconnected from the army.

"Die, you traitor Cao!" Lü Bu laughed wildly, his Red Hare gradually catching up with Cao Cao, about to finish him off with a single halberd strike.

Just then, two voices suddenly rang out.

"Lu Bu, prepare to die! x2"

Lu Bu turned around and saw Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

He hesitated for a moment, looked around, and then cursed inwardly. Zhao Yun was here, and he hadn't said a word, cutting off his escape route.

We can't delay any longer. It was clearly written in that letter that Chen Xi and Jiang Shu were thinking, "If we can take them in, we'll take them in; if we can't, we'll kill them."

But even if he surrenders, he can't surrender now. And why surrender to Liu Bei? Right now, Lü Bu has neither territory nor manpower. Well, he still has manpower.

"I'll remember this grudge for now, and I'll settle it later!" Lu Bu shouted, and then Red Hare quickly carried him away.

Not long after Lü Bu left, Cao Hong, Yue Jin, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan, who had been killed, arrived.

Only after seeing Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun standing guard there did they breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Yunchang, Yide, Zilong!" the group said, bowing.

After a brief conversation, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun retreated.

the other side.

"This is the Xiliang Iron Cavalry?" Chen Xi asked with a look of disdain.

Hua Xiong stared with a dark expression at the Xiliang cavalry, whose ranks were now stretched out in a long, single line, as they fought for credit.

"That bastard Lü Bu did this on purpose! When did he lead the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry into this state?!" Hua Xiong cursed.

Just then, the earth suddenly trembled, and a white light flashed from afar and flew over. That's right, it flew over, and it was flying at that speed.

The terrifying sense of oppression instantly made the Xiliang cavalry follow their instincts and form a wedge formation.

"The Xiliang Iron Cavalry is invincible!" Hua Xiong couldn't help but shout.

"He is the greatest warrior of Xiliang!"

"It's Hua Xiong!"

The Xiliang cavalry began to get noisy.

"Let me lead the troops!" Hua Xiong roared.

"yes!"

"The Xiliang Iron Cavalry is invincible!" Hua Xiong roared.

The soldiers roared in unison, "The Xiliang Iron Cavalry is invincible!"

Their terrifying aura temporarily held off the onslaught of the White Horse Cavalry.

Fiery red clouds appeared above the Xiliang cavalry.

"Cloud-like military formation, its might swallows mountains and rivers!" Jiang Shu demonstrated.

"Where righteousness leads, life and death shall follow; Heaven shall bear witness, and the white horse shall be our testimonies!" Jiang Shu shouted.

The White Horse Cavalry shouted in unison, "Where righteousness leads, we will follow to the death! Heaven is our witness, and the White Horse is our proof!"

A terrifying aura instantly emanated from his body, pressing down on the Xiliang cavalry.

Hua Xiong withstood this terrifying aura with all his might, and his mouth was parched with thirst.

Time seemed to fall silent, and the soldiers behind him were all looking at Hua Xiong.

"The Xiliang Iron Cavalry is invincible!" Hua Xiong shouted hoarsely.

"The Xiliang Iron Cavalry is invincible!" the soldiers shouted in unison.

These soldiers have taken another step forward in terms of willpower by being able to shout those words.

Jiang Shu hesitated. If they attacked now, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry would probably lose half of their strength, the White Horse Cavalry would be wiped out, and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry would have a slim chance of advancing to the third talent level.

Hesitating, hesitating, and hesitating some more, Jiang Shu finally gave up. For Liu Bei at this point, ten thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry and one thousand White Horse Cavalry were far more important than three days' worth of Xiliang Iron Cavalry.

Jiang Shu dismounted, and the White Horse Cavalry was returned to Zhao Yun's command. He then explained what would have happened if he had charged down earlier.

The others remained silent. Having received Jiang Shu's explanation, how could they not know what level of power a three-talented Iron Cavalry possessed?

That is a pillar of a nation, a terrifying force on par with the Military Soul Legion, and in some aspects, a terrifying legion comparable to the Military Soul Legion.

Can they say Jiang Shu was wrong? No. Putting aside the fact that there was only a sliver of a chance, even if there was a 100% chance of promotion, could a mere 3,000 three-star iron cavalry be more important to Liu Bei now than 10,000 Xiliang iron cavalry and 1,000 White Horse Cavalry?

If it were Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, they would have to fight even if there was a chance, but for Liu Bei, he was more at ease with 10,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry and 1,000 White Horse Cavalry.

After all, what if we fail? We would lose two elite forces from across the land.

"My lord, these are all officers and soldiers who used to serve under me. Some of the elite cavalry from Xiliang who have come this time were also my former troops." Hua Xiong bowed to Liu Bei. "They are capable; please give them a chance!"

"Zijian, rest assured. The defeat of your men this time was due to Lü Bu's poor command. What does it have to do with them?"

"Besides, just now Mingzhi led the White Horse Cavalry in a charge. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry truly deserves to be called the elite of the land." Liu Bei smiled, indicating that he didn't care about the matter.

With a single sentence, Liu Bei shifted the blame for the previous defeat of the Xiliang cavalry onto Lü Bu. After all, these men were Hua Xiong's subordinates, and Liu Bei was very satisfied with Hua Xiong's performance just now. He was the leader of the White Horse Cavalry, and the Xiliang cavalry still had the courage to charge.

"Zijian, are you confident you can completely control these people?" Chen Xi asked, frowning. He hadn't expected that Lü Bu would bring out all of Hua Xiong's troops this time, making it really difficult to divide them up.

Those were Hua Xiong's former troops; if they were to be divided...

"Sir, there's no need for that. Now that you've joined our lord, your former subordinates are no longer considered part of Hua Xiong's forces. Captives are captives, and military merits are military merits. We cannot treat them specially just because they were once my subordinates," Hua Xiong said solemnly.

Liu Bei, Chen Xi, and Jiang Shu exchanged a glance.

"You shall compile your own repertoire, and continue to compile your own repertoire."

"If your troops are disbanded, I think it won't be easy for them to regain their fighting strength."

"As for the rest, we'll leave it to Lord Xuande. But let's make this clear first: if you can't control your troops, don't blame us for dismissing you."

"Yes!" Hua Xiong shouted, though his voice clearly showed delight.

Military law is military law, and personal feelings are personal feelings.
