Since Liu Zhaoqing didn't want to, we had no choice but to "invite" him over.

"Capture him and the generals beside him alive, and kill the rest." Dong Zhuo said.

After receiving the order, Lu Bu and others signaled their troops to prepare for the attack, and with their unstoppable numerical advantage they directly defeated Liu Zhaoqing's team of 100 people.

Dong Zhuo himself slowly retreated to the front of the main force. At this time, Li Ru also saw Dong Zhuo's cold and slightly displeased eyes, and he immediately knew what to say.

"Prime Minister, please calm down. Liu Zhaoqing is so ignorant that he cannot see the Prime Minister's efforts and ambitions."

"It doesn't matter." Dong Zhuo said calmly: "He will change his mind."

At this time, Jia Xu on the side frowned slightly.

Dong Zhuo also noticed his expression, so he tilted his head slightly and asked, "What does Wenhe think of him?"

"..." Jia Xu was silent for a moment and then said, "The Prime Minister did the right thing. Liu Zhaoqing has a special status. He was born a commoner but has the loyalty of Emperor Gaozu. He is also the minister entrusted by the late emperor and has a close relationship with Liu Yu, the head of the imperial clan. If we can get his assistance and support, the court can at least reduce 30% of the opposition."

"Then why do you look like that?" The person who asked this question was not Dong Zhuo but Li Ru. Li Ru had already noticed Jia Xu's abnormality.

It would be better to say that Jia Xu began to frown when Dong Zhuo started talking with Liu Zhaoqing.

Jia Xu pondered for a moment and said, "I think the Prime Minister's timing is not very appropriate. Liu Zhaoqing can be recruited, but not at this time."

"And the Prime Minister just talked to him for so long, it seems like... he was deliberately delaying time."

She still didn't say it directly, but Dong Zhuo understood it: "I know he is stalling for time, but do you think he can escape from my army with only 100 cavalrymen?"

"Yes, the Prime Minister is not one of those barbarians in the northern border. Besides, with General Lu here, Liu Zhaoqing will not be able to escape tonight." Li Ru nodded.

Under the cover of night, Jia Xu looked at the figure in the darkness ahead who was in a desperate situation but remained upright and calm.

"If it's really just 'planting wings', then it would be the easiest to solve." Jia Xu said.

"What I'm worried about is... I'll collapse."

"Ah?" Li Ru was surprised, and then he wondered: "Why would Wen He have such an idea? Can Liu Zhaoqing defeat us with only 100 people?"

"One hundred men are not enough, but this is Hebei. The Prime Minister may not know that Liu Zhaoqing attacked the Xianbei from afar after the Battle of Bailang Mountain and defeated the main force of the Xianbei in Mobei. Let's not talk about the details for now. There are reliable rumors that Liu Zhaoqing has subdued the Wuhuan and Xianbei people."

Jia Xu said, "The reason why this news didn't spread is because both the result and the process were too shocking."

"But Prime Minister, if Liu Zhaoqing has really conquered the tribes in the northern part of the Great Wall, there are at least 200,000 men in the northern barbarians who can fight. If they all move south, they will pose a great threat to us."

Li Ru pondered for a moment and said, "I think Jia Xu, you are still a little too worried."

"The Northern Hu have existed for hundreds of years, and even Emperor Wu couldn't completely subdue them. How could Liu Zhaoqing possibly do it?"

"And even if he has reached a certain agreement with the Northern Hu and can mobilize their troops to come south to rescue me now, look at what is behind him."

"This river is half as wide as the Yellow River. Even if there are troops to rescue him, crossing the river will only make him a target for our archers."

Li Ru's analysis was not without reason, and Jia Xu could not refute it. She just vaguely felt that Liu Zhaoqing should not have made such a mistake and would be blocked before the river.

This idea also made Li Ru and others shake their heads, saying bluntly that Liu Zhaoqing was not a saint, so how could he be without mistakes?

The battlefield ahead was also advancing very smoothly. Liu Zhaoqing's troops did not dare to break out and could only huddle in front of the river.

In less than half a minute, Liu Zhaoqing and his generals would be brought before Dong Zhuo, and the less than 20,000 soldiers in Ye City in the rear would be enough to kill all of Han Fu's defeated soldiers.

By killing two birds with one stone, Dong Zhuo was able to win a great victory and return to Luoyang to hold a banquet to reward his enemies.

Just when almost everyone felt this way, Jia Xu suddenly felt something strange.

She looked forward in surprise.

Li Ru, who was standing by, was puzzled when he saw this: "What's wrong?"

"Why, there's a warm breeze?"

"Wenhe, you are too surprised, why is Nuanfeng making such a fuss?"

Of course, there is nothing surprising about ordinary warm wind, as it is the hottest month now, but what if it is a warm wind with a golden hue?

Jia Xu reached out and touched his cheek which had just been brushed by the warm breeze, then placed it in front of himself and slightly used his God-given power.

Then her face changed, because there was a tiny trace of gold between her fingers.

This golden power is not a god-given force, but more like the power of heaven and earth that only mythical beasts possess. It is as natural as the wind and is compatible with all living things.

"Oh no...it's her!"

"Prime Minister! Speed ​​up and defeat Liu Zhaoqing!"

Jia Xu hurriedly reminded Dong Zhuo, when Li Ru, Dong Zhuo and the surrounding generals did not understand why Jia Xu was so excited.

Suddenly, a golden light appeared in the sky ahead.

Then everyone saw a hint of gold appearing in the dark sky in the distance.

Moreover, the golden color became larger and larger, and it was coming towards them quickly from afar.

It was like a golden cloud marching towards them.

At the same time, Lu Bu in the front also discovered a strange phenomenon, that is, the Yellow Turban Cavalry beside Liu Zhaoqing and behind him began to emit traces of golden light.

The overall momentum of the Yellow Turban Cavalry, most of whom were not even heroes, was rising rapidly.

"Is this a gift from heaven to command the army?" Lu Bu had never seen a gift from heaven with such ability, and even doubted whether it was a gift from heaven.

But what surprised her was not just that, what happened about two breaths later.

Lu Bu saw a large black army coming from afar on the other side of the river as the yellow clouds marched quickly.

"That's Liu Zhaoqing's reinforcements!" Li Ru was shocked.

Looking around, there are at least 30,000 of them, and the number is still increasing.

But he was also thankful: "Fortunately there is no bridge or ferry here, they can't get across for a while..."

Before he finished speaking, a golden light shot up from the other side of the river.

A long-haired woman in a light yellow gown held a golden book in her hand, the light from the book directly connected to the golden clouds in the sky.

Like an autumn breeze blowing through a wheat field, the army behind him was covered by a golden light that fell from the sky.

Guo Jia looked at the sky, then looked forward.

"All troops, listen up! Cross the river!"

A large number of cavalrymen headed towards the river, showing no intention of stopping in the face of the dark water.

When the horse jumped up and landed on the river, its four hooves actually produced golden color, and the horse walked directly on the water.

It might not be a big deal for one cavalryman to come walking on the water, but when one thousand or ten thousand cavalrymen came walking on the water, even Lu Bu was stunned for a moment.

Not to mention Dong Zhuo and the generals around him.

"This...how is this possible?!"

This can no longer be called "God-given command of the army"? How can there be such ability?

"Fengxian!" Dong Zhuo reacted and immediately shouted at Lu Bu.

Lu Bu also realized that he must not let these troops cross the river, or at least destroy most of them while they are crossing the river.

Holding the Fang Tian Hua Ji, Lu Bu headed towards the shore, but at this time, a silver spear directly blocked his way.

Zhao Yun pulled up the reins and looked at Lu Bu: "Where are we going?"

On the other side of Lu Bu, Zhang Liao was also riding a black horse and looking at her.

"Fire arrows!"

Dong Zhuo's archers aimed all their arrows at the army crossing the river.

But just as arrows fell from the sky, Guo Jia on the other side of the river looked at the woman beside him: "Madam."

Zhang Jiao closed her eyes and chanted the incantation softly: "Huang Tian obeys my command, the wind... rises!"

Under the yellow clouds, a strong wind rose from nowhere, intercepting all the arrows in mid-air, and even reflected them towards Dong Zhuo's army.

At the same time, Zhang Jiao raised her left hand as if casting a spell and pointed towards the river in front of her.

For a moment, the cavalry in front increased their marching speed by at least 20%.

When Lu Bu in front saw this scene, he realized that the army he was facing was a little too unusual.

Moreover, the cavalrymen who came across the river were not dressed in Han uniforms, but from the northern Hu people.

Although these people are not very smart, they are physically strong. With the help of this strange gift of commanding the army, one of them is comparable to two elite soldiers of Dong Zhuo's army.

At this moment, Lu Bu knew there was only one way to quickly resolve this change.

That is to directly control Liu Zhaoqing as the leader.

Lifting his Fang Tian Hua Ji, Lu Bu swung it at Zhao Yun, but Zhao Yun dodged it with his body tilted, and then Lu Bu stabbed at his shoulder with a spear.

Lu Bu raised his arm and grabbed Zhao Yun's spear, and Zhao Yun immediately lifted it up with force, trying to knock him off his horse.

But unexpectedly, Lu Bu actually left Red Hare directly, used the force of his body to fly into the sky, and went directly towards Liu Zhaoqing.

But at this moment, two rough-looking Hu generals came across the river first.

"I am here to protect you, Chanyu!"

Chapter 293: Lü Bu's 4.5% Strength, But He Met the Beauty in Red DressK

Hearing the sound, they saw two Hu generals raising their swords and spears and slashing at Lu Bu.

And Liu Zhaoqing himself certainly couldn't just sit there and wait for death. He quickly took a step back, his body bathed in the light of the yellow sky. The horse under him actually gained the ability to walk on water and stepped steadily onto the water surface.

At this point, Liu Zhaoqing and Dong Zhuo's procrastination and everything they did came to fruition.

"Budugen, Tadun, you two go and kill the enemy, leave this to Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun." Liu Zhaoqing said to the two Hu leaders who came to him.

Hearing the name, Lu Bu also realized that these two people seemed to be Xianbei and Wuhuan people.

"Why can you call upon barbarian generals?" Lu Bu asked Liu Zhaoqing.

Asking this kind of question at this time, it can be said that Lu Bu was indeed shocked by the sudden change.

"Because this is destiny." Liu Zhaoqing raised his sword.

"Soldiers! Kill the bandits!"

The army that came across the river instantly became bloodthirsty and murderous.

Not all the people in the army are Hu people. In addition to some of the garrison troops in Changping, there are also a considerable number of Youzhou soldiers here.

You can even see Zhang Jiao and Xian Yu Fu next to Guo Jia.

Obviously, this means that Zhang Jiao has attracted a lot of power in a very short period of time, and the three forces have been twisted together to eventually form such a grand and incredible situation.

"Don't panic! Form a line! Form a line!!"

"The enemy only has tens of thousands of people. They are no match for us. Stay calm!"

Some generals in Dong Zhuo's army came to their senses and realized that this support force was not invincible. As long as they remained calm, they would be able to defeat all the support troops with the advantage of their elite equipment and high quality.

However, life is always contrary to one's wishes, and the general who woke up was one of them.

Even though they understood that the troops they led were not completely powerless to fight against the support forces, they were still like an ant trying to shake a tree when facing the extremely powerful troops supporting Liu Zhaoqing.

The most important thing is that this support team does not just rely on Huang Tian's blessing to charge forward.

In the distance, Zhang Jiao was always paying attention to the battlefield, and she never stopped using Huang Tian. Next to her, Guo Jia had golden eyes gazing into the distance, directing the battlefield, and Xian Yu Fu conveyed his orders to everywhere.

Not only are his soldiers powerful, but he also has an extremely intelligent brain.

The battle between Liu Zhaoqing and Dong Zhuo naturally switched sides, and a large number of Dong Zhuo's elite troops were slaughtered by the Youzhou troops who came to support them.

At this time, Liu Zhaoqing looked at Lu Bu who was not far away. He thought for a moment and said to Lu Bu: "If you surrender now, I am willing to make a promise to keep you safe."

Liu Zhaoqing certainly did not say this casually, and the reason why Lu Bu was treated leniently by Liu Zhaoqing was not because of himself.

It was not easy for Liu Zhaoqing to deal with Lu Bu. On the one hand, Lu Bu was very powerful, and on the other hand, he had a strange personality and was difficult to control. If he was not careful, he might be recognized as his adoptive father, and then he would be doomed.

On the other hand, she had a close connection with his concubine, and Liu Zhaoqing could not possibly regard her as Lu Bu in his previous life.

But at this time Liu Zhaoqing did not think that this relationship should be exposed. He was almost certain that with Lu Bu's current personality and state, he would definitely not have a good impression of Liu Zhaoqing after learning the news, and might even directly rebel.

On the contrary, they would most likely think that Liu Zhaoqing was the one behind all this and become even more angry with him.

However, as long as Lu Bu surrendered and was held by her, he would definitely be willing to slowly explain to her.

Unfortunately, Lu Bu would definitely not agree to such recruitment.
