Lu Bu knew the news of Zhang Liao's escape immediately. When the people around him asked him if he would pursue him, Lu Bu remained silent for a long time.
His concubine Diao Chan sat worriedly at the side. No one knew that a fierce battle was taking place in his sea of consciousness.
Lu Bu's self-awareness suppressed the will from King Shura and said: "I don't allow you to make decisions for me!"
King Shura mocked: "Don't you like this kind of power very much? You accepted my hug willingly."
"But my body does not belong to you, get out of my sea of consciousness!"
"The inner universe you cultivate in is too similar to our Shura world. Why not give up the human body completely, wait for the blood river to flow into this world, and you can bathe in it, completely reborn, and become the new Shura King! Wouldn't this be more powerful than the current one?
Ten times? Maybe you can even surpass me and become the overlord of the Shura world."
Lu Bu said with a ferocious smile: "The reason why I, Lu Fengxian, am powerful is because I am powerful as a human being, not because I am a monster! From today on, I will control my body!"
"Hahahaha, let me give it to you first. People who are addicted to power will surely fall for it. You will accept this reality and abandon your weakness as a human being and choose true strength. This is yours.
Fate!”
Lu Bu suddenly opened his eyes, and a red light flashed in his eyes. The people around him were so frightened that they backed away. Only Diao Chan held his hand tightly.
"General, it's okay!"
Hearing the beauty's comforting words, Lu Bu turned his head, looking tired.
He held Diao Chan's hand and said, "Do many people want to betray me?"
Diao Chan said: "Even if they all betray you, I will never..."
All the anger in Lu Bu's eyes turned into tenderness. He hugged Diao Chan into his arms and said, "I know that no matter what, I will take you through this troubled world and give you the best of everything!"
The soldiers on the side saw that there was no longer any anger in their lord's eyes, and immediately stepped forward boldly and asked: "My lord, Zhang Liao led his men to escape, do you want to pursue them?"
Lu Bu ignored it and only issued a military order, "In the future, if any monster dares to kill our soldiers without permission, I will kill them as retribution to me!"
Diao Chan raised her head and said, "But every time we conquer a place, those monsters will eat all the local people. This way we will not be able to stand, and it will cause siege by all forces."
Lu Bu nodded slightly and said: "Those monsters are just tools to be used. We cannot make them turn against the enemy! I issued the order again. Monsters cannibalize people and they will definitely take revenge! If they must eat, they can only eat the dead corpses of the enemy on the battlefield!"
When the soldiers heard this order, they were excited and quickly informed the entire army.
Some of the more intelligent monsters in the army were dissatisfied and came to look for Lu Bu.
However, everyone who entered the account was killed by Lu Bu, and only one head was thrown out.
He is not worried at all that these monsters will rebel, because he has the aura of King Shura in his body, and he can subdue these monsters just by his bloodline.
Zhang Liao was leading his army walking in the wilderness, when suddenly several riders came rushing forward, pointing at Zhang Liao's troops from a distance, and then making notes on paper.
Zhang Liao and his subordinates immediately recognized that they were Liu Beijun's scouts. A captain asked: "General, what should we do? Liu Beijun is ahead!"
Zhang Liao pondered for a moment and suddenly said: "I heard that Bingzhou is under Liu Bei's jurisdiction, and it is rarely disturbed by barbarians outside the Great Wall."
Everyone looked at each other, and more than half of the people here were from Bingzhou. Someone said: "General, when I was in Yuzhou before, I did hear about the situation in Bingzhou from the merchants who came back from the north.
Liu Bei's army captured Yinshan, and Yanmen Pass in Bingzhou pushed the defensive area out for hundreds of miles. Except for a few poor and crazy barbarians who accidentally entered the pass to plunder, most of the barbarians had been subdued by Liu Bei's army and did not dare to act rashly."
Zhang Liao looked into the distance and said, "I want to go home."
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
How many years have they not been home since Dong Zhuo's rebellion?
At this time, suffering setbacks and being isolated and helpless in the enemy's land, home may be the last belief in everyone's heart.
"Let's go home, General!"
"I miss my mother at home. I wonder how well my brother and the others take care of her."
"When I went to Luoyang with Governor Ding, my wife was already pregnant. The child should be in his teens now."
Listening to the people's increasingly loud discussions and eager thoughts and emotions, Zhang Liao laughed and raised his long sword forward, "We surrender to Liu Bei, and we go home!"
When Liu Bei's army arrived, suddenly three thousand soldiers and horses from Bingzhou were willing to surrender.
Sima in the army suspected that he had faked his surrender, but Guan Yu and Zhang Liao were from the same hometown and had a good personal relationship, so he tried to vouch for him.
So the whole army was dispersed and organized into the rear camp, while Zhang Liao joined the front camp to serve.
Naturally, they also learned about the situation of Lu Bu's army from Zhang Liao. When they learned that Lu Bu had allowed monsters to eat people, they were all shocked and angry.
Guan Yu said: "Lü Bu is a dog thief. Although I don't know what secret method he has to control monsters, he must not be lenient in allowing monsters to eat people!"
Zhang Fei snorted coldly: "I'm afraid these three family slaves are no longer human beings!"
Zuo Ci caressed his beard and said: "The normal method of controlling monsters cannot be used by non-cultivationists. It is theoretically impossible for warriors who practice sea consciousness and blood. I wonder if Lu Bu is possessed by a monster from the Shura world.
That’s why.”
Zhao Yun frowned and said: "We warriors have strong qi and blood. If filthy monsters try to possess us, they will only be hurt by the qi and blood in our bodies and cannot be avoided. How can we dare to possess them?"
What's more, the world has long concluded that among martial arts practitioners, Lu Bu is the most powerful in martial arts and can be said to be invincible in the world. I really can't think of any monster that can possess him."
Xu Yin said calmly: "No matter what, it will definitely be clear in the battle. Mr. Liu, since you know the enemy's situation, you might as well march immediately and fight with them!"
Kong Ming also followed up: "The teacher is right. If Lu Bujun is allowed to continue to act recklessly, I am afraid that more people in Jizhou will die in vain at the mouth of monsters!"
When Liu Bei saw that everyone was asking him to fight, he immediately drew his double swords and shouted: "In that case, we will go and fight to the death with them!"
The army did not dodge or evade, and moved forward in a mighty manner.
Naturally, Lu Bu's army knew in advance through the scouts that he had just killed dozens of monsters in the army who did not obey his orders, and used the aura of King Shura to force them to surrender to him.
Then he heard that Liu Bei's army had already attacked. He had no time to prepare and immediately ordered the entire army to form a formation to prepare for the overlord of the North!
The two armies met in the vast wilderness of Jizhou. Liu Bei's army had 50,000 troops, while Lu Bu's army had less than 25,000 troops, but there were 30,000 monsters lined up on both sides to help him fight.
There was no provocation from either side, and all the scattered cavalry set off first, swimming and fighting in front of the two armies' formations.
Then the infantry formation advanced like a fortress, with the cavalry on each wing, using hammer and anvil tactics to gain the upper hand with the offensive.
