Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

From a distance, this strike seemed to almost cut off Lu Bu's head.

Countless people were so nervous that they couldn't breathe, staring intently at the changes on the battlefield.

What made the allied forces regretful was that after Red Hare quickly distanced itself from Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Lu Bu's head was still there as he sat firmly on the horse again.

Only the majestic and domineering hair crown on the top of the head was cut off, and a large amount of hair fell down without restraint.

When Lu Bu recalled the knife attack just now, he was shocked and angry.

The fighting ability displayed by Zhang Fei had already made Lu Bu take him seriously. Guan Yu's three sword strikes made Lu Bu even more astonished. Due to his carelessness, he was almost beheaded by Guan Yu.

Lu Bu didn't care about Guan Yu's suspected sneak attack.

Lu Bu's arrogance of claiming to be unrivaled in the world made him instinctively believe that it was a reasonable means for other generals to choose "sneak attack" to defeat him.

At this moment, after Guan Yu had swung his sword three times, he was also panting and sweating all over.

These three strikes were undoubtedly Guan Yu's full strength, and the consumption of his body was no less than that of Zhang Fei and Lu Bu who had just fought for nearly a hundred rounds.

Even with the tacit cooperation of Zhang Fei, who helped to restrain Lu Bu, these three strikes still failed to cut off Lu Bu's head.

This made Guan Yu and Zhang Fei greatly shocked by Lu Bu's bravery.

monster? !
The limit of Han people?!
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's faces were solemn, and they were fully aware that in terms of pure bravery, there was a clear gap between them and Lu Bu.

However, Lu Bu looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Well, well, well, I have swept across the Hu tribes from Bingzhou, traversed the grasslands without encountering an enemy, and when I went south to Sili, I had no rivals either. I thought that heroes in the world were nothing more than this."

“Today, it is rare for me to meet someone who can force me to such a point!”

"Come!"

The shock and anger on Lu Bu's face faded, and instead a kind of excitement and madness appeared. He raised the Fang Tian Huaji in his hand and pointed it directly at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

"The value of a military commander lies in fighting on the battlefield. You two are qualified to be beheaded by me personally."

Faced with Lu Bu's provocation, how could Guan Yu's arrogance and Zhang Fei's bravery retreat?

"Come on, come on, you traitor, fight me for another three hundred rounds!"

"Humph, Wenhou Lu Bu, I have heard of your name for a long time, and I have long wanted to kill you, the accomplice of the tyrant."

Immediately, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei rushed towards Lu Bu again from the left and right.

Lu Bu also showed his arrogance and domineering attitude. After the Red Hare horse under his crotch neighed loudly, he attacked Guan Yu and Zhang Fei first.

Moreover, it seems that when Lu Bu and Zhang Fei were fighting, the two sides were almost fighting in circles on the spot.

Facing the siege of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Lu Bu knew that if he stayed where he was, he might not be able to withstand the bravery of these two men.

However, when the Red Hare fully released its speed and maintained high maneuverability.

Li Ji fully realized why the world had a beautiful name for him: Lü Bu among men, Red Hare among horses.

Even though the Snow-Treading Black Zhui Horse was a rare thousand-mile horse in the world, there was still an obvious gap compared to the Red Hare.

With Red Hare fully utilizing its high mobility, the three mounts were constantly charging at each other, and not to mention the red horse under Guan Yu's crotch, even the Snow-Treading Black Horse was clearly at a disadvantage.

This also means that no matter how well Guan Yu and Zhang Fei cooperated, and with the help of the Red Hare, Lu Bu would not fall into the rhythm of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's siege.

On the contrary, from a distance, it looked more like Lu Bu riding on the Red Hare, circling around and attacking Guan Yu and Zhang Fei respectively.

After the two sides fought for another twenty rounds, Lu Bu suddenly realized that Guan Yu was not as strong as he had imagined, except for the three sword strikes at the beginning. He was even inferior to Zhang Fei.

In addition, the fact that Guan Yu's mount was just a good horse made Lu Bu realize that Guan Yu had a shortcoming that could be overcome.

Immediately, Lu Bu put more energy into attacking Guan Yu, which suddenly increased the pressure on Guan Yu.

On the contrary, after Guan Yu helped relieve the pressure, Zhang Fei quickly began to adapt to the battle with Lu Bu. He seemed to be getting braver and braver as the battle went on. He shouted at the top of his voice like thunder and was even able to free up his hands to relieve Guan Yu's pressure from time to time.

Guan Yu did not try to be aggressive and took the initiative to let Zhang Fei bear the direct pressure from Lu Bu. While he himself was resisting Lu Bu, he tried to build up his strength again and waited for the right opportunity to kill Lu Bu.

For a while, Lu Bu, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were fighting each other.

To outsiders, the three men were fighting fiercely, which dazzled the soldiers. The sound of weapons clashing was no less than the sound of heavy drums.

The bravery displayed by Lu Bu was amazing, but what surprised countless people even more was the bravery of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Even though Guan Yu and Zhang Fei seem to be somewhat inferior to Lu Bu, anyone who has witnessed the fight between these three men would have to admit that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are also peerless generals.

Liu Bei, who was supporting Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, was even more worried, fearing that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei might get into an accident in such a dangerous battle.

This made Liu Bei tighten and loosen his grip on the double-edged sword at his waist, and he instinctively wanted to rush forward to help Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

However, before Liu Bei could make any move, Li Ji grabbed Liu Bei's reins and said, "My lord, calm down. Yunchang and Yide can protect you together. If you go up, Yunchang and Yide may have to be distracted to protect you."

When Liu Bei heard this, he was stunned at first, but suddenly he felt that what Li Ji said made a lot of sense.

Although Liu Bei occasionally had a mysterious confidence in himself, seeing Lu Bu fighting so fiercely with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Bei thought calmly and suddenly felt that it would be difficult for him to pose much threat to Lu Bu even if he rushed forward.

but……

Liu Bei turned his gaze to Zhao Yun and asked, "Does Zilong dare to fight?"

"Yun, I am willing to fight!"

Zhao Yun, who had already seen this and was already getting his blood boiling, quickly bowed in response.

"and many more……"

However, Li Ji stopped Liu Bei from sending Zhao Yun into battle. He stared at the battlefield ahead and fell into deep thought.

Judging from the current situation, Lu Bu was able to resist Guan Yu and Zhang Fei alone, thanks to the help of Red Hare and the shortcomings of Guan Yu's mount.

There is a gap in bravery between Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Lu Bu, but it is not to the point where they are completely on different levels.

Therefore, if Zhao Yun also joins the battlefield, there is no need for Zhao Yun to gain the "furious" state.

Even with Zhao Yun's normal bravery and his mount, the Night-Shining Jade Lion, Lu Bu would definitely be slapped several times on the spot, and it is not impossible that he would be beaten to death on the spot.

The benefits of killing Lu Bu on the spot are obvious. It will greatly boost the morale of the allied forces and greatly enhance the reputation of Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

However, there are more disadvantages.

The Jinyisi had already roughly confirmed the composition of the army that Dong Zhuo led to garrison Hulao Pass, and that the elite troops of Sili and Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry were the main forces.

The Western Liang Cavalry, which were Dong Zhuo's true descendants and foundation, were mostly sent to the Sanfu area.

Lu Bu's personal prestige in the Bingzhou army was extremely high, otherwise he would not have been able to lead most of the Bingzhou army to join Dong Zhuo after Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan, and Dong Zhuo would not have handed over all the Bingzhou army to Lu Bu for command.

Does Dong Zhuo trust Lu Bu 100%?
Of course not, it’s simply because Lu Bu’s personal prestige is too high.

Therefore, the first disadvantage of killing Lu Bu is that it is likely to arouse the anger of the Bingzhou army and let the Bingzhou army fall completely into Dong Zhuo's control to resist the allied forces.

More importantly, under Li Ji's promotion, the scale of the allied forces was much larger than the original trajectory, and the actions of Liu Yan and Liu Biao directly threatened the Sanfu area behind Dong Zhuo's forces.

It should be noted that in the original trajectory, Dong Zhuo dared to burn Luoyang and directly forced the emperor and people of Luoyang to retreat to Chang'an. The main reason was that the only person who threatened the Sanfu area in the rear was Ma Teng.

Compared with Dong Zhuo's huge military force, the threat posed by Ma Teng was nothing but a tiny disease.

But now the situation has changed slightly under Li Ji's promotion, but the impact is huge.

Faced with the threat from Liu Yan and Liu Biao, Dong Zhuo absolutely did not dare to abandon Luoyang and retreat to Chang'an, otherwise the situation of being attacked from all sides would only become more serious.

If the allied forces continued to advance towards the Sanfu area after entering Sili, then Dong Zhuo, who was huddled in the Sanfu area, would be completely trapped.

Therefore, even if Lu Bu was killed on the spot, Dong Zhuo, who had no way to retreat, would not be frightened and choose to burn Luoyang and retreat to Chang'an.

Defending Hulao Pass to the death was Dong Zhuo's only option, and it was also the situation that Li Ji secretly promoted and created in order to prevent the ruthless Dong Zhuo from choosing to burn Luoyang.

It should be noted that Luoyang was the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the population of this city alone was as high as one million.

Once Luoyang was burned, not to mention the huge material losses it would cause, millions of people would certainly be displaced, which was something Li Ji did not want to see.

If it were the Japanese, Li Ji wouldn't even blink an eye even if a million of them died.

But as for the Han people, Li Ji would naturally try his best to avoid it since he knew that such a situation might happen.

Immediately, Li Ji decided on a "force attack strategy" in the "Strategy Simulator" and used deduction to determine the success rate of forcefully attacking Hulao Pass while killing Lu Bu.

[We are weighing the information on generals and counselors known to both the enemy and ourselves at this moment...

Calculations are being made based on the capabilities of our executive generals...

Comparing the combat power of both armies and calculating...

Calculating possible disruptions or adverse factors...

Determined as a feasible strategy...

Current success rate: 21.9%. 】

Suddenly, Li Ji's face fell.

Although Li Ji felt that the allied forces were not strong enough to storm Hulao Pass, he did not expect that even without Lu Bu, the success rate of storming Hulao Pass would still be so low. (End of this chapter)
