Dong Zhuo did not intend to lead his army to join Lu Bu's troops at the barracks in the west of the city, which was not too far away. Especially after seeing Lu Bu flying away in the sky, he just asked the generals to lead their troops to join them on their own to make up for Lu Bu's surrender.
The general's command is vacant.
Since meteorites fell from the sky and unparalleled generals appeared, the optimal ratio between the number of troops and generals has become clear. The upper limit of the command of an "unparalleled general" is 10,000 people, while the civil servants with "strategist characteristics" can command eight
Thousands, the number depends on the tallest person in the team. Even if Lu Bu and Jia Xu are organized into the same army, the upper limit is still 10,000 rather than 18,000.
As for ordinary generals and ordinary counselors, the upper limit is 5,000 and 4,000 respectively. If it is a small general, he can lead a team of only 1,000 people at most, which is often called a "thousand-man general".
Most of the civil servants at this level are chief clerks and clerks, and no one will let them lead troops.
On the other hand, if Dong Zhuo, the governor of a state, could command up to fifteen thousand troops, if the emperor personally led the expedition, he could have up to twenty thousand men under his command.
However, these figures only refer to "expedition". If they refer to "transportation", even a partial general can lead a hundred thousand troops to the destination. However, if he encounters an enemy halfway, he can still only command a thousand troops, and the rest
They will fight on their own or flee directly.
One hundred thousand is the maximum number of people that can be mobilized for an "expedition" or "transportation", because the materials they carry can only support this number. Although many craftsmen in various states are working hard to upgrade the transportation vehicles, the effect is not good.
Therefore, as a giant city like Luoyang that can garrison 200,000 soldiers and has strong city defenses, it would have been impossible for the city defenses to be broken by "a single" attack - if they really defended with all their strength.
In this battle of Luoyang, the Liangzhou army led 50,000 troops led by Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Hua Xiong, and Zhang Ke as the vanguard, and 100,000 troops led by Dong Zhuo, Guan Hai, Zhang Mancheng, Zhang Yan, and Jia Xu formed the central army.
It can be clearly seen that if the Chinese army encounters an encounter with the enemy, there are only 58,000 people who can be commanded. However, in comparison, Lu Bu recruited additional Wei Xu, Hou Cheng, Song Xian,
Generals such as Hao Meng and Thanos (...), even if they are so weak that they can only lead 5,000 troops, these soldiers are still stronger than Dong Zhuo who can only serve as a transport team.
According to "Diao Chan"'s report, Cao Cao has many generals under his command, so the Qingzhou Army's 100,000 troops should all be capable of fighting.
As for the "Baibo Taiping Road" side, although there are only 80,000 people, I am afraid that half of them are in "transportation" status. Moreover, due to the interference and misdirection of Zhang Mancheng and Zhang Yan, those who have time to enter Luoyang at this time can only
Afraid of less than half of half.
However... he was able to escape from the roundup of Guan Hai and "Diao Chan" that day. The other party also has a guy who should not be underestimated.
Dong Zhuo was thinking when he saw two teams pouring out of Lu Bu's camp, rushing to the east and north of the city respectively.
"Wen He? What do you think?" Dong Zhuo turned to Jia Xu, who had made careful plans for this trip to Luoyang.
"Oh hoo~" Jia Xu sighed inexplicably: "It seems that Lu Bu has picked up a good counselor. It seems that I can rest for a while. When that guy causes a big mess with his own cleverness, I will deal with the aftermath for him."
.”
To deal with the aftermath? Not to end the aftermath? Dong Zhuo glanced at him.
————
Near the Royal Palace.
"oh?"
Lu Bu originally used a move that he had used once before, gathering his "unparalleled thunder and lightning" around his body to form a "ball lightning" to move at high speed, but after "violently" once before, something seemed to have happened.
some kind of change.
At this time, the black and red lightnings were no longer spherical. They wrapped themselves up, forming a forward whirlwind, and greatly enhanced their strength, speed, defense and resistance to other "unparalleled" ones.
Haha, this move is called the "Five Soldiers of the Military God", Lu Bu thought quite proudly.
"[That's not right,]" a female voice that impressed Lu Bu extremely deeply said: "[Its name is 'I am the real Dynasty Warriors'."
"oh!"
As the sound appeared, Lu Bu discovered that this "thunder and lightning whirlwind" was changing its shape. It first expanded, then extended, and then grew a dragon head and tail at the front and rear ends respectively, and five sharp claws sprouted from its side.
Finally, it took the form of the giant black dragon that Lu Bu had seen in the illusion, which he had solved with "Thunder and Lightning Erosion".
As the dragon's posture took shape, the owner of the voice also appeared in front of Lu Bu. No matter how fast Lu Bu moved at this time, the phantom of the woman in the black dress remained floating in front of Lu Bu.
, her appearance was exactly the same as what he had seen in "Feng Yi Pavilion" and "Illusion", except that the expression on her face was no longer sad and regretful, and there was only endless surprise in the light in her eyes: "[Feng Xian"
Master, I finally found you!】"
What kind of master? Could it be that you want to call me "Sir"?
Lu Bu frowned: "Change your name."
Although he had a hunch that he might bring her out after passing through that illusion, this kind of slave-like title still made him quite unhappy.
"[Hmm, then...'leader'?]" Diao Chan tilted her head and pointed her finger at her cheek.
"Another one." Lu Bu had no intention of asking what group it was. He felt that if he did, she would introduce him endlessly. He was about to beat up the Sword Master.
"[...Ah, Abu.]" Diao Chan hesitated for a moment, then called out.
"Hahaha...hahahaha!" Lu Bu didn't know why he wanted to laugh, but the inexplicable ecstasy in his heart after hearing this call made him unable to control himself.
Huh, that's really troublesome. Is it caused by past lives or reincarnations?
After laughing, Lu Bu calmed down a little and began to think about how to place her. If he claimed that she was a subsidiary product of his new understanding of "unparalleled special skills", even Zhang Ke would not believe it.
However, since she is not an entity at this time, this matter is not urgent yet——
Chiying!!
The sky in Luoyang suddenly turned dark, and then, a vertical sword light like moonlight fell from the sky.
Because he was wrapped in the same dark "Thunder Black Dragon", Lu Bu's reaction was slow for a moment, and then he saw the sword light penetrating straight through [Diao Chan]'s back downwards. If she hadn't leaned slightly when she spoke,
If she was naked, she might be split in half right now.
"[Abu...I don't want to...disappear...]" [Diao Chan] stretched out her hand weakly towards Lu Bu.
"No one can take anything away from me!" Lu Bu directly raised his hand and grasped the sword light behind [Diao Chan] and shouted angrily.
Zhizhizhi——
This sword light is not solid, and it could not be grasped originally, but now it is not only held in Lu Bu's hand, but is also being reversely eroded by the black and red fluid lightning.
"Give it to me—break it!"
As the crimson thunder and lightning reversely eroded to a certain extent, the moonlight-like sword light suddenly shattered and rolled back, and the part that had pierced [Diao Chan] also disappeared.
"[Abu...]" [Diao Chan]'s Qi is like a gossamer.
"Shut up! You are not an ordinary person now. You can't die from this kind of injury! Look down and see for yourself!"
"【……Huh?】"
[Diao Chan] blinked blankly, then looked down, and saw a sword mark that penetrated from front to back on her abdomen that was pierced by the sword light, but there were no traces of flesh and blood in the "passage", only countless
The fluttering black light spots tried to repair the wound.
"[Ah, I've already...]" [Diao Chan] sighed, closed her eyes, and her body suddenly fell from reality to reality, but in the next moment she was held in Lu Bu's arms.
Humph, I must have owed this girl a lot of money in my previous life. Lu Bu slightly changed [Diao Chan] to a more comfortable position, raised the Fangtian Painted Halberd in his other hand and pointed it in the direction of the sword light.
: "Wang Yue, you are seeking death on your own, don't blame others!"
choke--!
Perhaps due to the coma of [Diao Chan], Red and Black Thunder's response speed was much faster. As Lu Bu raised Fang Tian's halberd, the black dragon surrounding him suddenly raised its neck and let out a high-pitched dragon roar.
Yin.
Click, click, click... Where Lu Bu pointed, countless scattered sword lights reunited, forming a broad, thick, edgeless, stone-like sword with ancient characters engraved on it, and a faintly transparent giant sword.
, and the "Sword Master" Wang Yue, dressed in white and wearing a high crown, is standing on the hilt of his sword.
"Do you know what you just did?" The sword master's tone was slightly sullen, and he stared directly at [Diao Chan] who was being held in Lu Bu's arms.
"Hmph, I just stopped some disrespectful guy from plotting against the little girl." Lu Bu snorted and hugged [Diao Chan] back.
"After I saw [her] outside Helan Mountain, I returned to Luoyang and deliberately cultivated more than 50,000 'Diao Chan', intending to prevent [her] from ever appearing," the sword master said in a calm tone, with murderous intent in his words.
But it is constantly rising: "[She] stayed in Luoyang, and you were far away in Liangzhou. I thought that there would be no contact between the two of you, but now it seems that I should have taken some risks and killed both you and Dong Zhuo.
."
"I didn't understand the inexplicable things you said at all, but you said you wanted to kill me? It just so happened that I had the same plan!" Lu Bu spun Fang Tian's painted halberd in a circle, creating a black dragon made of thunder and lightning.
Then it opened its mouth threateningly, revealing its fangs, and five sharp black claws began to dance.
"Now that [she] has appeared, I have no other choice," Wang Yue flicked his sleeves, and the giant sword under his feet suddenly glowed with a green light: "Just disappear with [her]!"
scold--
Roar--
The next moment, the roar of dragons and the sound of swords resounded throughout the world.
