The Three Kingdoms: General Yu She, reincarnated a hundred times.
Chapter 58 The traitor is on the verge of collapse and his heart is broken; where is the blood oath
……
Based on Yu She's past life experience, if it were any other feudal lord, seeing Qiao Mao in danger, they might have offered a helping hand, but Liu Dai alone would never do so.
Liu Dai had long coveted Dongjun. In his previous life, upon seeing the alliance showing signs of splitting, he couldn't wait to kill Qiao Mao and run away, which shows his character.
If Qiao Mao were to ask for help at this time, they would probably be more than happy for him to die at the hands of Dong Jun in order to seize his territory. Why would they come to his aid?
……
As Yu She had predicted, when Qiao Mao fled to Liu Dai's stronghold, he found that Liu Dai had already learned of the news and was on high alert, and even refused him entry.
Seeing this, how could Qiao Mao not be anxious? He hurriedly called out:
"We have all fallen into Dong Zhuo's trap. Yu She's assassination attempt on Dong Zhuo was a ruse. I just saw with my own eyes that he was leading Dong Zhuo's army to attack. He had just killed Kong Zhou and his momentum was overwhelming and unstoppable!"
"Lord Liu, save me quickly!!!"
However, Liu Dai responded to his cries for help with a playful expression.
"Prefect Qiao, please go elsewhere and do not disrupt our army's formation, lest you fall into the hands of Dong's army."
"Yu She is pursuing us so urgently that he has no time to go anywhere else. I hope that Lord Liu will remember our blood oath of alliance and quickly open the gates to rescue us."
"absurd!"
Liu Dai only let out a cold laugh, "In the darkness of night, with the sounds of battle rising everywhere, how am I supposed to tell whether you've fled here to me, or whether you, like Yu She, have surrendered to the traitor Dong Zhuo and are deliberately trying to trick my stronghold?"
"What are you saying? How could I, Qiao, be such a despicable person as Yu She?"
However, Liu Dai had long coveted Qiao Mao's territory and troops, but he regretted that since they were allies, he had no official status and could not easily take action against him.
With Dong Jun's army attacking now, he could use them as a tool to kill, so he refused without waiting for Qiao Mao to finish speaking.
Whether Prefect Qiao betrayed his principles and defected to the enemy, I think... is hard to say.
We have all come to uphold the nation and promote righteousness. Since words are difficult to refute at present, it would be better for Prefect Qiao to fight to the death against Dong's army here to prove his loyalty.
If that is the case, I will certainly submit a memorial to the Emperor on your behalf, requesting merit for you, so that Prefect Qiao's name may also be recorded in history.
At this point, Qiao Mao could no longer see through Liu Dai's treacherous intentions. Unfortunately, Lü Bu had already arrived, blocking his routed troops outside Liu Dai's stronghold, leaving them unable to advance or retreat for the time being.
While he might still have some hesitation, his routed soldiers only wanted a way to survive. Seeing no way forward and no way back, some charged at Dong's army, while others charged at Liu Dai.
Seeing this, Liu Dai was overjoyed and immediately shouted!
"Qiao Mao has defected to Dong! Soldiers of the three armies, show no mercy!"
Fire arrows! Fire arrows! Fire arrows!!!
Qiao Mao was filled with grief and indignation. He saw Lü Bu charging towards him with his halberd, while Liu Dai unleashed a barrage of arrows to block his retreat.
Knowing that he was doomed to die today, Qiao Mao felt utterly hopeless and cried out to the heavens in despair:
"We rose up together in righteous war to save our nation, but the traitors are on the verge of collapse and their hearts are breaking. Where is our blood oath now?"
He then drew his sword and committed suicide to prove his loyalty as a subject!
Meanwhile, Liu Dai unleashed a volley of arrows at Qiao Mao's routed troops, expending a great deal of arrows and the soldiers' strength. By the time Lü Bu led his army through Qiao Mao's routed troops and reached the front of the camp, he was already at a disadvantage.
Before long, Lü Bu and Yu She led the Flying Bear Army into the camp, but Liu Dai could no longer be found in the camp.
Upon hearing of Kong Zhou's death and witnessing Qiao Mao's suicide, Liu Dai feared repeating their fate. Therefore, he left his soldiers to form a battle formation to block Dong Zhuo's army from the rear, while he led a group of trusted generals and officers to flee directly to Yuan Shao's camp.
Seeing that Liu Dai could not be found, and knowing that Lü Bu and Yu She were able to move freely and unimpeded among the allied forces of the feudal lords tonight, they realized that this was why they were able to succeed in everything they did.
Firstly, Yu She was familiar with the deployment of the allied forces. Secondly, speed was of the essence in warfare. Although the eighteen princes had hundreds of thousands of troops, they were extremely bloated, and the eighteen orders were independent and difficult to coordinate. This allowed them to advance all the way with unstoppable momentum. At this time, they could not stop their speed.
To avoid being surrounded by the other lords, the two of them quickly broke through Liu Dai's camp and, under Yu She's guidance, set fires along the way before rushing to the next camp!
Unexpectedly, this time they didn't even need to storm the enemy camp. Instead, they were met by an army of feudal lords, who were holding up a large banner with the character "孔" (Kong) on it, and were lined up with fire to intercept them.
The leader, upon encountering the combined forces of Lü Bu and Yu She, did not flee but instead stood firm and angrily rebuked Yu She.
"That scoundrel is truly vicious and cunning!"
I almost mistook you for a loyal and virtuous man; how dare you aid and abet the wicked and disrupt the court!
While launching a verbal and written attack, he urgently ordered his scouts, "Quickly report back to the alliance leader that I have cornered Lü Bu and Yu She here. Send troops immediately to surround them and eliminate these traitors for the country—today is the day!"
Seeing that this man was so tough, daring to face him head-on, and talking about eliminating traitors for the country, Lü Bu laughed!
He then turned to look at Yu She, his meaning clear: "Should we fight or not?"
Yu She recalled Kong Rong's achievements in his previous life, "Hmm... it seems that he was a group of Yellow Turban remnants who were scattered by a group of Gongsun Zan and were waiting for someone to come to his rescue at his doorstep?"
What else is there to say? Let's get him!
He immediately nodded, "Keep killing! Fengxian, tonight will be the night we both become famous throughout the land!"
Three thousand men decisively defeated the allied forces of the feudal lords, achieving lasting fame in history—that's all there is to it.
Whenever Lü Bu thought of this, he felt his blood boil, which is why he has been asking Yu She about everything until now.
"Is this a question for Yu She? This is a battle that will go down in history; it cannot be lost!"
……
"Lu Bu of Jiuyuan is here; today he will surely take your head!"
After saying this, Lü Bu, wielding his halberd, led his army into the enemy ranks.
The three thousand Flying Bear Army soldiers were all armored cavalry. Although they were not fully armored, how could the infantry trained by the great Confucian scholar Kong Rong possibly withstand such a cavalry charge head-on?
The two sides clashed briefly, and Lü Bu led his army through a sea of spears and blades as if they were nothing. In this critical moment, Wu Anguo had no choice but to step forward and meet Lü Bu in order to save Kong Rong's life.
However, he had just been injured in the wrist by Lü Bu during the day, and with his injury not yet healed, how could he be a match for Lü Bu?
He fought with all his might, urgently shouting, "My lord, flee!"
With tears in his eyes, Kong Rong was swept away by his personal guards and fled.
After beheading Wu Anguo and cutting through Kong Rong's army, Lü Bu was about to pursue Kong Rong when he suddenly saw an army rushing to his rescue, carrying a large banner with the character "Cao" on it. It was clear that they had just received news of Kong Rong and were being dispatched by Yuan Shao to block him.
Having experienced the previous rabble of Kong Zhou, Qiao Mao, Liu Dai, Kong Rong, and others, Lü Bu took this as commonplace. However, to be on the safe side, he still habitually looked at Yu She.
But Yu She's expression had changed.
Who was Cao Mengde?
Yu Zichuan's saying, "Among three people walking together, there must be one I can learn from!"
This was one of the most ruthless and capable fighters under the command of the vice-leader's coalition in his previous life.
Besides, Cao Cao always brings his family with him; he never fights alone. Whenever he appears, Wei Zi and Bao Xin will surely come to his aid!
