Lu Bu's Defeat
Liu Xie used 150 merit points to exchange for the loyalty of almost everyone present. In comparison, Liu Xie had indeed profited. He could earn more merit points, but without people, he had nothing.
"Test the loyalty of these generals.”Liu Xie was a little impatient as he ordered the system.
"Ding! The test results were as follows: Yue Yun's loyalty was 80, Luo Cheng's loyalty was 80, Zhang Liao's loyalty was 78, and Gao Shun's loyalty was 79.”
" This is considered very high," Liu Xie thought to himself as he touched his chin.
" My lord," Luo Cheng walked over with his spear." There seem to be many torches moving in the distance. According to the direction, they should be looking for us."”
Liu Xie raised his head and looked into the distance. Indeed, many torches were slowly moving towards him. In fact, Luo Cheng's guess was right. Although Luo Shixin did not send people to chase after him, Li Que was dissatisfied with Luo Shixin for snatching the command of his flying bear army. Therefore, he ignored Luo Shixin's dissuasion and sent people to chase after him.
Seeing Luo Cheng speak, everyone clearly regarded Liu Xie as their lord and all looked at Liu Xie with eager eyes.
Liu Xie took a deep breath as his mind kept spinning. Although he had four generals and three hundred soldiers under him, they were all in a sorry state and extremely tired. It was not suitable for them to continue fighting. The only way was to escape.
However, where should he escape to first?
The first thing that came to Liu Xie's mind was an ordinary village. However, even if there were villages nearby, it was hard to guarantee that these villagers would not reveal his whereabouts.
Just as Liu Xie was hesitating, Gao Shun suddenly came over and said," My Lord, why don't we go to Mount Coiling Dragon first and settle down? We can make plans later.”
"Hmm?" Liu Xie's eyes lit up. Coiling Dragon Mountain, wasn't it the mountain stronghold that Gao Shun and he had attacked a few days ago? It just so happened that the bandits inside had all run away, so it was perfect as a foothold.
With that thought in mind, Liu Xie no longer hesitated. He immediately made the decision and said," We'll go to Mount Panlong!”
…………
Just as Liu Xie and the others were thinking about what to do next, Lu Bu, who had a tired and desolate expression, was riding a horse. He no longer had the arrogance he had before. He led nearly a hundred remaining soldiers toward the east of Luoyang. Looking at the general direction, they were indeed heading toward Hanoi County.
It turned out that while Lu Bu was chasing Fan Chou, he had unknowingly arrived at the side of the Fu River. At this moment, Fan Chou was also afraid of Lu Bu's beating. As soon as he arrived at the river, he immediately shouted without caring about his image," Quick, light a fire for me!"”
When the soldiers on the other side of the Fu River heard Fan Chou's shout, they hurriedly lit up the dry rice they had prepared. The dazzling flames rushed up, and the red flames reflected on the soldiers 'red faces, revealing a sense of nervousness and unease.
Because Li Ru had already planned to build a dam upstream of Fu River, the water flow downstream where Fan Chou was was very shallow. Fan Chou hurriedly rode his horse forward, and the Western Liang army hurriedly followed behind him. They ran desperately toward the opposite bank.
Lu Bu's military attire was fierce as he chased after Fan Chou's tail. When he saw that the Fu River was shallow, he felt at ease and rode his horse across. In the process, he killed several Western Liang soldiers.
As the flames soared into the sky, Hwa Xiong, who was waiting upstream, was already impatient. He hurriedly burst the dam. The rolling river water was like thunder. There was almost nothing that could stop it, and it rushed downstream aggressively.
"Boom!" Lu Bu was still chasing downstream when he suddenly heard the sound of the sky collapsing. He couldn't help but jump in fright. His trusted soldiers had sharp eyes and saw a white line surging over from the upper reaches of the Fu River. The turbulent river water rushed over almost instantly. Lu Bu and the hundreds of elite soldiers who were chasing Fan Chou were almost on the other side because their horses were faster. However, the rest of the people were in the Fu River. Looking at the surging flood, they wailed and were swept into the water, disappearing without a trace.
After the Fu River passed, the Xi Liang army led by Hua Xiong, who was waiting for fatigue, rushed down from the upper reaches like hungry tigers. As they ran over, they shouted," Capture Lu Bu alive! Capture Lu Bu alive!"
When Lu Bu saw that six to seven hundred of the nearly one thousand men who had come out with him had died in the flood, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. The bodyguard also sobbed," General, we've been tricked. The enemy is too strong. We should retreat first!"”
"Retreat?" Lu Bu's eyes were like a hungry wolf's as he looked at the Hwa Xiong Troop with red eyes." Where do we retreat to?”
Lu Bu raised his halberd and swept across a reckless Western Liang soldier who was charging at him. The unlucky fellow was sent flying off his horse without even making a sound.
"Soldiers, follow me and charge!" As soon as Lu Bu finished speaking, he rode alone and charged towards the Huaxiong Tribe. Lu Bu's subordinates seemed to have been influenced by Lu Bu, and their eyes flashed with determination as they followed Lu Bu to kill.
"Swoosh!" Every time Lu Bu attacked, one or even two or three figures would fly off their horses and fall to the ground.
Hwa Xiong had originally come with the intention of competing with Lu Bu, but after barely managing to receive the halberd, he quickly retreated from the front line. His eyes were filled with uncontrollable fear, and blood was continuously flowing from the area between his thumb and forefinger.
Lu Bu did his best to push back the enemy soldiers around him. He wiped the blood off his face and turned around. There were only a hundred of them left. Fortunately, the Fu River had already flowed down at a rapid speed. He immediately ordered," Everyone, follow me and break out of the encirclement!"”
Everyone was trying their best to push back the enemies. They turned their horses around and ran towards the opposite shore that Lu Bu had pointed out. Lu Bu held his halberd horizontally behind them. He was like a meat grinder, tearing apart every enemy that came.
After everyone had gone over, Lu Bu shouted and swung his halberd, causing four or five enemies to fall off their horses. Lu Bu took advantage of the gap and crossed over.
After riding for a few miles, he saw flames rising from Ding Yuan's camp, mixed with the shouts and wails of the soldiers. Lu Bu knew that things were bad, but he was extremely tired. Even if he was made of steel, he could not move after fighting for such a long time. Moreover, Lu Bu was only a top-notch general.
He hadn't noticed it when he was fighting earlier, but now that he was calm, a wave of dizziness wrapped around Lu Bu's body.”Riding on his horse, Lu Bu could no longer lift the 80-pound Heaven Scorching Halberd. He fell to the ground with a thud, and his body went limp as he fell onto the horse's back.
"General! General!" Before Lu Bu fainted, he had only heard someone calling out to him. However, he had lost too much blood and was exhausted. His eyelids were so heavy that he could not lift them up. He wanted to respond, but his body could not.
………
When Lu Bu woke up, nearly a hundred riders were waiting quietly in a densely forested area. When one of the soldiers saw that Lu Bu had woken up, he could not help but exclaim in joy," General, General, you're awake?!”
Lu Bu raised his hand and rested for a while. His body gradually regained its strength and he sat up. The guard's face was filled with sorrow as he said," Provincial Governor Ding, he, he…"
"What's wrong?" Lu Bu raised his eyes and asked. Although he had some guesses, he still asked.
"Governor Ding was beheaded by Zhang Ji!" The bodyguard cried.
Lu Bu was silent for a long time, his eyes looking into the distance. No one knew what he was looking at.
After a moment of silence, he stood up and said as he walked," I won't stop the remaining brothers if they want to leave. If you want to leave with me, come with me to East County!”
