"Lü Bu?" When Dong Zhuo heard this name, his face trembled with anger, and he asked loudly, "Is he the Lü Bu who broke through the 50,000 troops along the Yellow River with 5,000 light cavalry?"
Since Zhang Ji and Fan Chou were forced to retreat by Lu Bu, although they did not lose many troops and horses, they had already lost momentum for a while. After they were defeated back at Hulao Pass, they were scolded by Dong Zhuo. Now.
Hearing Dong Zhuo's angry words, neither of them dared to talk to him.
"You useless trash! You can't even take care of a little Lu Bu? What a disgrace to me, the people of Xiliang!" Dong Zhuo pressed his hands against the wall and gnashed his teeth angrily, wishing he could bite Lu Bu to death in one bite.
Li Ru hurriedly came out to smooth things over: "Master, please calm down. Zhang Ji and Fan Chou are not incompetent. I can only say that Lu Bu is too strong..."
"You still have the nerve to say that? I asked you to garrison Sishui Pass, but what happened? Li Jue died in the battle and Sishui Pass was lost. Unfortunately, I still regard you as my confidant and beloved general. You really let me down!"
Once Dong Zhuo's violent temper arouses, whoever tries to persuade him will be in trouble.
However, after all, Li Ru had followed Dong Zhuo for many years and was Dong Zhuo's son-in-law. He had his own way of dealing with his father-in-law. When he heard that Dong Zhuo was so angry, he did not retreat but advanced, with a smile on his face.
He laughed and said: "Grand Master, please calm down. Li Jue's death was his own fault. He easily believed other people's lies. At that time, I received the news that Zhang Ji and Fan Chou were defeated. I hurriedly persuaded Li Jue to return to the army, but who knew that Li Jue
He insisted on refusing and sent us all back, saying that he could kill Gao Fei and Sun Jian alone. I told the Grand Master about this. At that time, I was also afraid that Sishui Pass would be attacked from both front and rear by the coalition forces, so I also
Fully believing that Li Jue could kill the enemy general, he took Xu Rong and Guo Si back, but who knew..."
"Okay, okay, I already know it, but Li Jue's death in battle has caused too much damage to our army. This matter has passed like this, and I don't want to pursue it anymore." Dong Zhuo looked at Lu Bu who kept shouting at Guanxia, and said
Turning around, he pointed at Lu Bu and asked, "Who dares to fight to the death with Lu Bu? Whoever cuts off his head, I will make him a Marquis of Ten Thousand Houses!"
"The last general is willing to go!" Xu Rong held a big sword and stood up from behind Li Ru, cupping his fists.
Dong Zhuo said: "That's great! Your military power is not weak. It's up to you to test Lu Bu's strength. Let me also see who this Lu Bu is!"
"No!" Xu Rong immediately climbed down from the city tower and rushed out from Hulao Pass with five hundred cavalry.
At the Hulao Pass, Lü Bushang was shouting there, but when he saw that there was no movement at all, he was about to turn his horse back, but suddenly he saw the door open wide, and a warrior wielding a sword poured out from behind him, followed by
Five hundred cavalry were scattered near the city gate.
Lu Bu looked over intently and saw that the general was still somewhat majestic, but he didn't take it seriously and immediately shouted: "Who is coming?"
Xu Rong saw Lu Bu's careless look and didn't pay attention to him at all. He galloped forward on his horse for a while, raised the big sword in his hand, and shouted loudly: "The traitor Lu Bu, I am the front man."
General Xu Rong, I’m here to get your dog’s head today. If you know what I’m looking for, please get off your horse and behead him!”
In the coalition army, all the princes were watching the battle in front of the formation, but when they saw Sun Jian riding his horse two steps forward, he had fought with Xu Rong before, and Xu Rong's force was indeed not weak, so they kindly reminded him: "General Lu, this is
He is an ally under Dong Zhuo's command. Compared with Zhang Ji and Fan Chou, they are far superior. General, you need to be careful!"
Lu Bu just smiled faintly and didn't look back. He ignored Sun Jian's words and shouted to Xu Rong: "You are no match for me. Get back quickly and let the old thief Dong Zhuo come out and die!"
Xu Rongyi was a brave man. He believed that his force would be better than that of Li Jue, Guo Bang, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou who Dong Zhuo brought back from Liangzhou. He was also eager to make military achievements in front of Dong Zhuo to make up for the loss of Sishui Pass and
What happened in Xingyang. When he heard that Lu Bu was so arrogant, he rushed out and shouted: "You are bullying me too much!"
When Lu Bu saw Xu Rong galloping towards him on horseback, he slowly ran forward for a short distance, then reined in the horse and held up the Fang Tian Hua Ji in one hand, waiting for Xu Rong to come.
This scene shocked everyone. The battle relies on collision force. The farther the distance, the faster the horse runs, and the greater the lethality. However, Lu Bu reined in the horse and stood there motionless.
, as if it were a living target that anyone could stab at will.
When Xu Rong saw Lu Bu assuming such a fighting posture, he became extremely angry. Seeing that the horse was about to gallop, he hurriedly waved the sword in his hand and slashed at Lu Bu with all his strength.
The blade of the blade reflected a glimmer of cold light in the dim light of the sun, and the sharp blade emitted a penetrating chill. If the force that was like splitting Huashan Mountain fell, it would definitely split a living person into two pieces. The blade was in
As he continued to fall, Xu Rong's face was filled with a confident smile.
Lu Bu was still riding on the horse, not even moving, which made people sweat for him.
Suddenly, Xu Rong's horse rushed in front of Lu Bu, and the sword in his hand also slashed down. Just when he was about to hit Lu Bu's shoulder, he suddenly heard a crisp sound of "clank", and a sword flew directly towards Lu Bu.
It flew into the air, spinning wantonly in the air, rising higher and higher, spinning faster and faster, without any intention of falling.
"ah--"
Immediately afterwards, Xu Rong let out a scream. His entire right arm was gone, and blood was constantly spraying out from his body, dyeing half of his body bright red.
At the same time, Lu Bu galloped over from behind on his horse, thrust forward the Fangtian Painted Halberd in his hand, and pierced Xu Rong's entire body, who had broken off his right arm. He shouted loudly, and then
Lift Xu Rong's entire body off the horse and throw it into the air. Xu Rong's body soared into the air.
At this time, the big knife that had previously flown into the air also fell straight down. The blade flew over from a distance like an accident, directly inserted into Xu Rong's heart, and began to fall downwards with Xu Rong's body.
"Challenge!"
Lu Bu suddenly galloped to the place where Xu Rong's body fell, lifted up the Fang Tian Painted Halberd in his hand, shouted loudly, and began to swing the Fang Tian Painted Halberd in the air to slash...
In just an instant, what Xu Rong dropped to the ground was no longer a corpse, but body parts that had been cut into pieces, viscera, limbs, head, and bones. They were all in pieces. When they fell on the ground, it made people sick to see them.
Lu Bu still held Fang Tian's painted halberd in one hand. There was still a piece of intestine hanging on his halberd. The whole halberd was dripping with blood. He rode his horse to Hulao Pass again and looked at it with two fierce eyes.
Looking at Dong Zhuo on the pass city, he shouted loudly: "Thief Dong! Come out and die!"
Following this loud shout, the horses under the 500 cavalrymen who came out with Xu Rong began to become restless. The cavalrymen also became frightened and retreated into the pass one after another. The city gate was also tightly closed.
There was a chilling atmosphere between heaven and earth, the atmosphere was extremely tense, and the air was filled with a disgusting smell of blood...
Lu Bu stood on his own horse at Hulao Pass. At this time, he looked like an invincible god. Coupled with his aura that could swallow up mountains and rivers, and his invincible force, his image suddenly rose to a high level.
An unattainable point.
All the princes and civil and military generals in the coalition who came to watch the battle were all impressed by Lu Bu's bravery. In their eyes, this was the first time they had seen such a thing. Even Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, who were present,
Zhao Yun, Tai Shi Ci, Xu Chu, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Hua Xiong and others all couldn't help asking themselves whether they could be as perfect as Lu Bu with such bravery.
Among the heroes, Cao Cao suddenly frowned. After seeing the scene just now, he heard Dian Wei and Xu Chu let out a low exclamation at the same time behind him. This was the first time he met Dian Wei and Xu Chu let out such displeasure at the same time.
A voice that he could believe. He looked carefully at Lu Bu's broad and heroic back, and thought slowly in his heart: "Lü Bu is brave in the world. If I win over Lu Bu, it will be like holding the world firmly in my hands."
Gao Fei knew early on that Lu Bu was the best general in the world in this era, but he didn't expect him to be so brave. Not only did he kill Xu Rong in one round, he also just used the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand to cut Xu Rong into pieces.
You must know that the edge of a halberd is very average and can only be used to stab, hook, etc. However, the halberd technique demonstrated by Lu Bu used the bluntest part of the halberd to chop Xu Rong's body.
This is the first time in the world that he has seen a painted halberd as sharp as a steel knife.
"Second brother, did you see it just now? Did Lu Bu really cut off Xu Rong's body with his halberd?" Xuzhou Zhang Fei, who was not far away from Gao Fei, suddenly shouted, widening his eyes and questioning
.
Guan Yu nodded and said: "It was indeed chopped with a halberd. That slash was so beautiful. Third brother, this person's martial arts skills are far superior to ours. We need to be careful in the future."
"Hmph! What's so great? Isn't it just a single strike? Can it be compared to my consecutive stabs? If I have the chance, I must compete with him. This kid Lu Bu has ignited the fighting spirit in my heart. Discord
If I fight against him, I will have trouble sleeping and eating all my life. I must compete with him!" Zhang Fei said unconvinced.
Zhang Fei's voice was loud and attracted the attention of many people. After everyone saw it, they didn't know much about him and secretly laughed at Zhang Fei, an unknown person.
Liu Bei stopped Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's conversation, and the coalition forces became quiet again.
Gao Fei listened carefully and felt that refusing to admit defeat was very similar to Zhang Fei's character. He just smiled softly and said to Zhao Yun behind him: "Zilong, how do you compare to Lu Bu?"
Zhao Yun also looked unconvinced. When he heard Gao Fei's question, he said: "Lü Bu is brave and this strike is really beautiful, but the opponent is Xu Rong. If it were me, the outcome is still unknown."
Cao Cao and Gao Fei were standing next to each other. Dian Wei, who had always been taciturn, suddenly said to Xu Chu beside him: "Fat Xu, take note of this person. If we have a chance, we must fight with him."
After a while, all the generals present began to complain. At the same time, the scene of Lu Bu killing Xu Rong aroused their fighting spirit. Their faces showed unconvinced looks, and they seemed to be ready to attack Lu Bu.
Launch a challenge.
"Dong Thief! Come out and die!" Lu Bu was still calling out in front, but who knew that behind him there were thousands of pairs of eyes staring at him, and every brave man wanted to fight him.
Dong Zhuo, who was locked in Hulao, saw this and was stunned. He knew Xu Rong's strength very well, but he didn't want to be killed by Lu Bu in one round. He couldn't help but feel a little afraid of Lu Bu, and hurriedly said: "Hang the exemption card, without me.
According to the order, no one is allowed to fight!"
