Lu Bu had dealt with his brother-in-law, who had come to assassinate Zhang Fan, and then instructed his subordinates to help him settle down. This made Zhang Fan even more certain that Lu Bu was his brother-in-law, even though he was quite displeased that his younger sister had married him off without his consent. However, what was done was done. There was nothing he could do. He only wanted to see his sister as soon as possible and teach her a lesson.
The next day, Lu Bu stood in front of the east gate of Le 'an County. He personally came to the city and shouted,""Yellow Turban rebels in the city, listen up. As long as you surrender, you will still be my people. If you insist on resisting, the day the city is broken will be the day you die.”
However, there was still no response from the city. Seeing that there was no response, Lu Bu ordered the entire army to attack the city.
" Charge! Charge!" The 20,000 vanguard troops led by Zhang He rushed into the city. Every 100 of them carried a ladder. The archers waited for the attacking troops to reach their shooting range. Arrows rained down on the attacking troops. Zhang He was unusually brave. He swung his weapon with both hands and kept pushing away the arrows that were shooting at him. He shouted,"Sons, follow me and kill. The day we break through the city is the day we win.”
On the 100-meter journey to the city, people kept lying down. After paying a huge price, the attacking troops finally reached the city wall. The soldiers carrying the scaling ladders were protected by the shield soldiers and lifted the scaling ladders up the city wall. The soldiers at the back immediately climbed up the scaling ladders to the city gate tower. Then, it was an even more brutal battle. The soldiers who climbed up the scaling ladders were continuously smashed down by the Yellow Turban soldiers guarding the city with falling rocks and giant logs. The casualties were huge, and they couldn't take it down. Even Zhang He was almost injured.
Seeing this, Lu Bu couldn't help but burn with anger and ordered his generals to wait for orders. After he had taken down the city tower, opened the city gate, and ordered Zhang He to lead his troops in, Lu Bu ignored the obstruction of the generals and took a shield from a soldier. With the shield in his right hand and the Heaven Scorching Halberd in his left hand, he led the 10000 troops towards the city wall and shouted,"Children, follow me to attack the city. If you take down the city, you will be rewarded handsomely.”
When the 10000 soldiers saw their lord personally attack the city, their blood boiled and they shouted,""My lord is mighty, my lord is mighty!" The waiting troops who did not participate in the siege also shouted,"My lord is mighty, my lord is mighty!" He wished he could be like his brothers and attack the city with Lu Bu. Lu Bu sprinted towards the city walls at an extremely fast speed, continuously using his Heavenly Halberd to deflect the arrows that were shooting at him.
Lu Bu came to the front of the city wall and pushed away a soldier who was about to climb the ladder."Even if you're rushing to die, you're not as diligent as you.”However, when he raised his head and saw that it was Lu Bu, he was stunned for a moment before shouting happily,""My lord is here. My lord is fighting side by side with us.”
"Ah, Lord!"
The soldier had been so pleased with himself that he had been hit in the heart by an arrow. He fell to the ground with his head back, and his eyes slowly lost their luster. Lu Bu did not notice this small interlude. He held the halberd in his right hand and stabbed it into his belt. He held the shield in his right hand to protect himself, and his left hand grabbed the ladder to climb up. When all the attacking troops saw Lu Bu personally attacking the city, their morale soared. The Yellow Turban rebels who were guarding the city on the city gate tower were also shocked by this momentum.
Zhang He could hear the shouts of Lu Bu attacking the city, but he was also climbing up the city wall under the rain of falling rocks and arrows, so he had no time to be distracted. Finally, Zhang He climbed up the city wall. As soon as he stuck his head out, four or five spears stabbed at him. Zhang He didn't panic at all. He held a shield in his right hand and smashed away the long spear. Then, he jumped onto the city tower and saw many Yellow Turban soldiers surrounding him. He smashed his shield at an archer who was aiming at him with a bow and arrow. Then, he drew two iron halberds from his waist and charged at the Yellow Turban soldiers, shouting,""Grandpa Zhang He is here.”
Zhang He was like a mad tiger killing a flock of sheep. He swung his broadsword up and down, dying on contact. Some of the Yellow Turban leaders wearing iron helmets were smashed by Zhang He until even their iron helmets were deformed. His brain splattered onto Zhang He's face. Zhang He wiped the blood off his face and laughed,""Hahaha, I really enjoyed killing today.”
The Yellow Turban soldiers surrounding Zhang He looked at him with fear in their eyes. He was simply inhumane, too crazy. Zhang He didn't care. He immediately let out a strange cry and brandished his big iron halberd to kill the surrounding Yellow Turban bandits. He specifically looked for places where there were many people to kill. With a horizontal slash, at least two or three Yellow Turban bandits fell to the ground.
As soon as Lu Bu came up, he jumped into the city. As soon as he came up, 30 to 40 Yellow Turban soldiers charged at him. Lu Bu threw away his shield and pulled out his halberd, facing the incoming Yellow Turban bandits. As soon as they clashed, Lu Bu roared and swept his halberd horizontally, instantly cutting the five people at the front in half. Then he charged into the crowd, killing five or six people with an Army Obliteration. Lu Bu saw that there were many people around him, so he swung his halberd in a circle and killed them. He was even more terrifying than Zhang He. His internal organs were all over the ground. The Yellow Turban bandits were killed by the two from two directions, and they even ignored the siege troops under the city.
This provided favorable conditions for the attacking troops. The attacking troops were greatly encouraged and their morale was greatly boosted. They all shouted and climbed up the scaling ladder. Lu Bu kept killing the Yellow Turban soldiers and archers who were responsible for throwing the falling rocks, causing the defending troops to be too exhausted to defend the city. As a result, many attacking troops gradually climbed up, and their numbers gradually increased.
Lu Bu immediately ordered all the soldiers to charge towards the stairs of the city tower and seize the city gate as soon as possible. The soldiers shouted,""Yes." Then, Ma Jue led the remaining soldiers to attack. These people were already boiling with excitement. As they charged towards the city walls, the morale of the city guards plummeted. They could not withstand the attacks of the attacking troops at all and were forced to retreat step by step.
Lu Bu personally led the troops and rushed to the front, constantly raising his halberd to kill the Yellow Turban rebels, forcing them down the city gate tower. As soon as they occupied the city gate, they immediately ordered the soldiers to swing down the suspension bridge and open the city gate. Seeing this, Ma Jue immediately waved his spear and ordered loudly,"Children, follow me into the city. It's time to make a contribution.”
Ma Jue rushed towards the city gate. At this time, Lu Bu had already led his troops to engage in street fighting with the Yellow Turban rebels. It was only a matter of time before the Yellow Turban rebels retreated. As soon as Ma Jue led the cavalry into the city, he saw Lu Bu, who was commanding his soldiers to kill the enemy. He immediately dismounted and came to Lu Bu's side. He cupped his hands and said,""My lord."
Seeing that it was Ma Jue, Lu Bu nodded and led Ma Jue to the team. He rode on the date red horse that others had helped him look after and said to the generals,"Generals, listen up."
"Yes."
"Zhang He led 15000 soldiers to attack the three gates. As long as they took it down, no matter who it was, they would not be allowed to pass.”
"Yes."
"Ma Jue will lead 10000 troops to quickly occupy the inner city.”
"Yes."
"I will be responsible for clearing the remaining Yellow Turban soldiers in the city.”
After giving his orders, Lu Bu walked into the city alone. Crawl ^book ^net, this chapter was first published by
