Chapter 244: Lu Bu VS Zhang Fei Guan Yu
Naturally, Sun Jian could not escape Lu Bu's sight when he was deploying his troops.

However, Sun Jian was not in a hurry, but gave orders in an orderly manner.

After the last battle, Sun Jian understood that in the wild, infantry could only fight defensively and counterattack against cavalry.

Therefore, it is particularly important to maintain our footing.

Soon, the vanguard of Sun Jian's troops completed their formation.

Seeing that Sun Jian did not take the bait and there were no flaws in the battle formation, Lu Bu began to adjust his orders.

The infantry formation led by Gao Shun remained stationary, while the cavalry moved from the rear to the left and right wings, and the drivers moved out.

After Sun Jian received the news, he turned the cavalry on the outside back into the infantry formation.

Now, Cheng Pu's troops were in an awkward situation as they were exposed outside the infantry formation.

Cheng Pu didn't know what had happened before, but he had served under Sun Jian for many years and could understand many of the commands, so he instinctively felt that something was wrong.

Remembering Jin Mao's instructions, Cheng Pu made a prompt decision: "Retreat!"

"Get back!"

Behind them was Lushan. As long as they retreated to the mountainous area, Cheng Pu believed that this cavalry team, most of which were converted from infantry, could rely on the mountainous terrain to turn the tide even if they were no match for the cavalry.

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu didn't understand why, but they still retreated as ordered.

Sun Jian's troops were confused and their morale was inevitably shaken.

All of this was seen by Lu Bu.

"The fighter plane has appeared!"

Lü Bu mistakenly thought that this was his chance, and immediately ordered: "Cao Xing, Hou Cheng, Song Xian, Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, and Hao Meng, attack from the right wing to contain Sun Jian."

He himself led his elite troops to pursue Cheng Pu.

As long as he could defeat this cowardly cavalry, Lu Bu believed that driving away the defeated soldiers would disrupt Sun Jian's formation.

This was exactly the result Sun Jian wanted to see. Instead of stopping them, he started to play with the cavalry on the right wing of Lu Bu's army.

The two sides fought back and forth, but there were no casualties.

the other side.

When Cheng Pu heard the sound of horse hooves, he knew that Lu Bu was coming to chase his cavalry.

Since the war horses were of inferior quality and could not outrun the elite troops under Lu Bu, they would probably be caught up before reaching Lushan.

At that time, the retreat will turn into a rout, which will definitely be the end of us.

“Stop retreating!”

After much deliberation, Cheng Pu decided to repel the pursuers first and then think of other things.

At this time, Cheng Pu's troops were five miles away from Sun Jian.

Lu Bu, who came around from the left, was surprised to see Cheng Pu arranging the battle array.

"Is this a trap?"

Lu Bu raised his hand and clenched his fist, and the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry behind him began to slow down.

At this time, Sun Jian's troops were in the middle of the two passes, Cheng Pu was five miles south of Sun Jian, and Lu Bu was five or six miles southwest of Sun Jian.

Relying on the extreme speed of Red Hare, Lu Bu left the queue and wanted to see if Sun Jian had surrounded him.

At this distance, even if the infantry moved, it would be difficult to quickly complete the encirclement and trap the cavalry.

Therefore, as long as he can determine Sun Jian's movements, Lu Bu will know whether there is a trap here.

"No siege!"

That means there are no traps.

This time, Lu Bu suddenly became interested: "Cheng Ziqi, Cheng Pu?"

"Is there a conflict between the monarch and his subjects?"

No matter what the situation is, Lu Bu is sure that Sun Jian will not care about Cheng Pu's life or death, so he can have a good time.

To be honest, Lu Bu was very afraid of Sun Jian's infantry, but he had no fear of the cavalry led by Cheng Pu and Han Dang.

If they were to face each other alone in the wild, Lu Bu could defeat these southern cavalrymen.

Walking in the south and riding in the north has never changed since ancient times.

Therefore, Lu Bu led the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to run another two miles south to ensure that they were far enough away from Sun Jian's infantry and to block the cavalry's retreat.

Just now, Lu Bu had already seen that Cheng Pu wanted to retreat to Lushan.

No matter what the enemy's purpose is, as long as it is effectively blocked, we can gain the upper hand on the battlefield.

the other side.

Cheng Pu's face turned pale. He didn't expect to encounter such a thing on his first expedition.

Zhang Fei saw that Cheng Pu looked unhappy, and saw Lu Bu's intention, and he was immediately annoyed: "The enemy general is riding on my face!"

"Cheng Pu! Why are you so cowardly, huh?"

"If it doesn't work, get out of my way!"

Cheng Pu took a deep breath. As a military commander, who doesn’t have a bad temper?
"Zhang Fei! Guan Yu, listen to my orders!"

Cheng Pu shouted loudly: "I order you two to lead a group of 500 people each."

He clasped his fists towards Zhang Fei and said, "I am no match for the enemy in front of me. I need Captain Zhang's help."

He then said to Guan Yu, "Captain Guan, take charge of the left wing, and I will lead the troops to attack the right wing."

Zhang Fei smiled happily and said, "That's more like it!"

He patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, if you don't tear the enemy's head off, I will take your surname!"

Then, Cheng Pu left his general's flag to Zhang Fei, and the cavalry began to split up.

opposite.

Lu Bu looked at it with interest: "Divide the troops?"

This is not taking him seriously.

"That's great! Then I'll come and defeat them all!"

Lu Bu raised his hand very arrogantly, and the Red Hare began to slowly speed up, with the Bingzhou Wolf Riders following closely behind, forming a cone formation.

Cheng Pu formed three small cone formations.

Zhang Fei rode on the snow-white Taxue and rushed to the front, forming a sharp contrast with the blood-red Red Hare under Lu Bu's crotch.

Soon, both sides accelerated to the maximum speed, and Lu Bu and Zhang Fei took the lead and broke away from their respective troops.

"Just in time!"

Lu Bu's eyes were full of excitement. The scene of Zhang Fei's head flying off appeared in his mind, and he swung his Fang Tian Hua Ji in a swung manner.

The two were twenty steps apart!
Zhang Fei turned his arm and the Zhangba Snake Spear moved from behind his back to in front of him.

At this time, Lu Bu noticed something was wrong and instinctively swung out his Fang Tian Hua Ji in advance.

The Fang Tian Hua Ji is considered to be one of the longer weapons among the long weapons, with a length of twelve feet (3 meters), while the Zhang Ba Snake Spear is eighteen feet (4 meters) long!

next moment.

"boom!"

The two men were ten steps apart, but their weapons collided prematurely with a loud noise.

Zhang Fei and Lu Bu were both shocked: "How could the enemy have such great strength?"

The thought only lasted for a moment, because the soldiers behind the two men were right in front of them, and it was too late to turn their horses around.

"kill!"

They both yelled at the same time.

But Zhang Fei's voice was even louder, which frightened the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry into throwing them into disarray.

Originally this group of cavalry were defeated soldiers, and having just suffered a defeat at the hands of Sun Jian, their morale was already low. When they encountered a powerful general like Zhang Fei, it could only be said that their luck was extremely bad.

Looking down from the sky.

Two figures, one red and one white, rushed into the crowd, like two stubborn stones of different colors, cutting through the water.

The Bingzhou cavalry was like waves splashing and scattered in all directions.

Then Zhang Fei's troops are like a high-speed stream of water, and they will not stop until they have washed away this stubborn rock, Lu Bu.

Unfortunately, Lu Bu was more skilled and killed his way through the cavalry formation.

When Lu Bu turned Red Hare around, his eyes suddenly became bloodshot.

The Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry collapsed after just one encounter and fled in all directions.

"Lu Bu is here!"

"Who dares to fight?"

In desperation, Lu Bu used himself as bait and held high his Fang Tian Hua Ji, hoping to buy some chance of survival for his subordinates.

These are all his assets. If they are wasted here, Dong Zhuo will definitely not replenish them for him.

Therefore, every bit of saving is worth it.

Lu Bu believed that with the escape skills of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, as long as they escaped, he could gather them back.

Just like before.

the other side.

Zhang Fei was still attacking Lu Bu's cavalry formation from the front and did not hear it.

Guan Yu and Cheng Pu, who were cut off from the left and right wings, could hear it clearly.

Guan Yu had always wanted to meet Lu Bu since Sun Jian said how powerful he was. Now that the opportunity had come, he had not forgotten what a general should do. "You two go and help the Cavalry Commander!"

Guan Yu pointed in a direction with his Green Dragon Crescent Blade, and the cavalry behind him rushed in that direction.

Without any worries, Guan Yu rushed towards Lu Bu alone.

"Who is coming?"

Guan Yu was nine feet tall, and the warhorse he rode was only a better breed among inferior warhorses. Therefore, when Lu Bu saw him, he felt as if he was riding a short horse.

Then he shouted: "I don't kill nameless people!"

"The one who killed you is Guan Yu from Hedong!"

Guan Yu, with his long beard tucked inside his armor, urged his horse to speed up.

"Humph! A nobody!"

There was no need for Lu Bu to urge him, as Red Hare understood his intention and also started to speed up.

Guan Yu was so jealous that he dragged his Green Dragon Crescent Blade on the ground unconsciously. His right hand unconsciously clenched the hilt, and his eyes were as sharp as knives.

Guan Yu wanted to kill Lu Bu and knock him off his horse with one blow.

In an instant, Lu Bu seemed to feel Guan Yu's murderous intent, and he also imitated Guan Yu and dragged the Fang Tian Huaji on the ground.

The two are getting closer.

Another ten steps away!

"drink!"

Guan Yu and Lu Bu shouted almost at the same time.

A blue-gray light streaked across most of an arc and fell from the sky.

Another silver-white light also drew a half arc and attacked from bottom to top.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the two men and their horses stopped at the same time!
From movement to stillness, the kinetic energy is transformed into nothingness. One can imagine how violent this blow is.

An abnormal blush appeared visibly on Lu Bu's face.

Nothing could be seen on Guan Yu's face, but the warhorse under him could not withstand the huge force, and it foamed at the mouth and slowly fell to the ground.

Lu Bu reacted immediately, pulled back his right hand, and the Fang Tian Hua Ji jumped back. He then quickly lifted it with his left hand, and thrust it forward with both hands in a stabbing shape.

Although Guan Yu didn't look like anything wrong on the surface, he was actually in a worse condition than Lu Bu, and suffered a heavier backlash.

Especially when his warhorse died suddenly, and his old strength was gone and his new strength had not yet been generated.

"what!"

Guan Yu's hair and beard stood up, and he held the Green Dragon Crescent Blade in both hands as he moved forward to block. His face turned from red to black, which was caused by the forced movement of his body.

"choke!"

Finally, he blocked the fatal blow.

Guan Yu used the force to roll backwards, creating some distance between him and himself, holding up his crescent-shaped sword with both hands, cautious and alert.

What are you doing?
After just one round, Guan Yu knew that he was no match for him.

Not only are their martial arts skills inferior to the other party, but the gap in their war horses is also too huge.

You have to know that Lu Bu was striking from bottom to top, which was much more difficult than striking from top to bottom, but looking at his calm and composed appearance, it was obvious that he was able to do it with ease.

Lu Bu didn't expect that in addition to the black-faced guy who was so powerful, there was also a red-faced guy who was so powerful.

"We must eradicate the roots of the problem!"

Lu Bu did what he thought. Red Hare knew what he meant and started to speed up again.

Guan Yu focused his eyes on Lu Bu, but in fact he was concentrating on counting the frequency of the Red Hare's running.

When fighting on foot against cavalry, and the opponent is a master, there is only one way to survive, and that is to break the horse's legs!

Lu Bu was very clear about this, and he only used 30% of his strength when swinging the Fang Tian Hua Ji.

"choke!"

The two weapons collided again.

Guan Yu pressed his lower body downward, and the first sword was lifted upward, also with only three-tenths of the force.

"choke!"

The second collision occurred in just 0.2 seconds.

At this moment, Guan Yu used the force of autumn wind to sweep away the fallen leaves, and his Green Dragon Crescent Blade spun in a circle and headed straight towards his Red Hare.

Lu Bu had been waiting for this. He changed the strength of his hands and thrust his Fang Tian Hua Ji downwards, just blocking the blade.

He could have taken Guan Yu's life, but compared to Guan Yu's head, Lu Bu valued the Red Hare more.

The two of them quickly moved apart.

After only two rounds, Guan Yu began to breathe heavily, but he did not dare to relax and immediately turned around to face Lu Bu.

This is a peerless master who is even more skilled in martial arts and stronger than him!

Guan Yu felt his blood begin to boil.

"If only I had a war horse!"

He is best at horse fighting, but he is not so good at foot fighting.

Perhaps God sensed Guan Yu's thoughts, and a white horse came running towards here like lightning.

"Zhang Fei from Yan is here!"

"Lu Bu took my spear!"

Lü Bu was attacked from both sides, but he sat upright on his Red Hare and laughed loudly: "Come on, you rats!"

Lu Bu couldn't remember how long it had been since he had felt so happy. Since his strength reached its peak, he hadn't encountered any decent opponent.

In the previous two battles with Sun Jian, one time the rounds were too short and not satisfying, and the other time, the two of them did not have a head-on fight.

It's different now.

Cheng Pu led his team to hunt down the Bingzhou Wolf Riders, and no one will disturb them here.

He, Lu Bu, can also fight well with the two masters. If he can kill any one of them, it will be a fun thing in his life.

"The wolf slave is so outrageous!"

Zhang Fei roared and raised his spear. Lu Bu gave up chasing Guan Yu and turned around to face Zhang Fei.

The battle with Zhang Fei was different from that with Guan Yu. The crescent-shaped sword was short, and Lu Bu could use the longer one to defeat the shorter one.

The Zhangba Snake Spear is long, so Lu Bu needs to get close to gain an advantage.

The Red Hare agreed with the people and sped up very quickly this time.

"boom!"

After another collision, the Snow Horse's legs went weak and it fell to its knees, and the Red Hare did the same, but the Red Hare got up a little faster than the Snow Horse.

With such a small gap, Zhang Fei was bullied by Lu Bu.

"Choke choke choke."

In a breath, the two men fought three rounds. Zhang Fei was caught off guard and barely blocked the attack.

Lu Bu howled, "Rat! You keep yelling!"

Zhang Fei was so angry that he screamed and tried to distance himself from the enemy, but Red Hare was much better than Taxue, so there was no chance for him.

Two people and two horses.

One red and one white.

One step forward and one step back.

Zhang Fei was short but had a long snake spear, while Lu Bu was tall but had a short painted halberd, so they fought fiercely.

at this time!

"Third brother! I'm here to help you!"

I don't know where Guan Yu got this war horse from, but judging from its height, it must be a Hun horse sold to the south, which is a dwarf horse.

"Well done!"

Lu Bu was not afraid at all and became more and more excited as the fight went on.

Guan Yu had consumed a lot of physical strength before, and Lu Bu was on guard after breaking the first sword, so Guan Yu's first three swords were ineffective.

The result was that the three of them were walking in circles on the field.

Zhang Fei wanted to distance himself, but Lu Bu wouldn't let him.

Guan Yu wanted to get close and kill Red Hare, but Lu Bu wouldn't let him and chased Zhang Fei to fight.

"Don't run, third brother!"

Guan Yu was so anxious that he shouted, which made Zhang Fei angry: "Guan Lao San!"

But Zhang Fei was not stupid, and he would not use his own weakness to attack the enemy's strength.

The scene suddenly reached a deadlock.

Guan Yu's horse was not as good as the other two's, and he was always led by the nose.

Zhang Fei in front was trying to keep a distance from Lu Bu and let Guan Yu get close, while he assisted from a distance.

But Lu Bu was not stupid. He chased Zhang Fei and beat him up, bullying Guan Yu for not having a good horse.
