The Strongest Lu Bu's Sweeping Thousands of Armies

Chapter 428 Airborne Xudu
Just like the first half a month before the Xuzhou army came to Xudu, the night always came as scheduled.

Cao Jun on the top of the city is still playing archery games. In the barracks of the Xuzhou Army, hundreds of hot air balloons are ready to take off.

Lu Bu boarded one of the hot air balloons, and Tai Shici jumped onto it right after him.

After the Zhou paratroopers boarded the hot air balloon, they also chose the balloon to be carried and boarded it.

Under the balloon, Zhou Yu and others who came to see him off gave a deep salute to Lu Bu.

Zhou Yu shouted: "I wish the Marquis of Chu the victory!"

The crowd was about to shout, but Lu Bu quickly stopped them: "Don't make any noise. Gong Jin can't do it alone. His voice won't travel that far. If you all shouted together, wouldn't it be telling Cao Cao? Say I'm leaving?"

Only then did the people who understood it come to a sudden, and saluted him one after another, and said in a moderate voice: "I wish Chuhou a victory and return!"

Lu Bu bowed his hands to the crowd as farewell, and asked Tai Shici, "Are all the soldiers ready?"

"Reporting to the Marquis of Chu, everything is ready." Tai Shici replied.

Lu Bu waved his hand and gave the order to set off.

More than 100 hot air balloons carried thousands of paratroopers into the sky.

Looking around, Lu Bu felt that so many hot air balloons flying towards Xudu were very imposing, but at the same time, he also understood that facing Xudu City, where nearly [-] Cao troops were stationed, the last pot of paratroopers he brought was basically nothing. A flock of sheep throwing themselves at the tiger's mouth.

As long as he made a slight mistake in decision-making, he and the paratroopers would no longer have to consider returning to Pengcheng.

The hot air balloon lifted off and flew towards Xu Ducheng in a fluttering manner.

Since a hot air balloon needs to use a flame to heat the air to reach the inner air because the heating is lighter than the outer air, thereby promoting the balloon to lift into the air, it is inevitable to use an open flame.

But where there is an open flame, there must be a fire.

Even on the ground, Cao Jun could easily spot them flying in mid-air.

The hot air balloon was moving towards Xudu at a very slow speed, and Cao Jun who was shooting arrows on the city wall to win rewards stopped one after another.

The soldiers of Cao Jun raised their faces one by one, looking at the "starlight" advancing at an unsteady speed in the night sky.

"Lu Bu is attacking!" There was silence at the scene, and no one knew who shouted, breaking the tranquility on the city wall.

Guo Jia, who had been guarding the city wall all the time, shouted to the soldiers: "He Nunu, Thunderbolt Chariot, all of them are for me to use. I can shoot as many arrows as I can, and I can throw as many stones as I can!" "

Cao Jun on the top of the city woke up like a dream, and they ran to Ta Nu and Pili Chariot one after another.

The balloon flew very high, looking down at the small black spots running back and forth on the city wall, a smile appeared on the corner of Lu Bu's mouth, and he said to Tai Shici beside him: "Cao Jun thought their stepping crossbows and Thunderbolt chariots could fight Our air force works. If I'd used a glider, the junk might help a little. I'd used a hot-air balloon, and even if they fired all the arrows up, there's no way one could hit us."

"It's so high, it should be missed." Tai Shici glanced down and agreed.

Cao Jun on the top of the city had already started launching crossbows and Thunderbolt chariots. Just as Lu Bu expected, the arrows and stones they threw could not reach the height of the hot air balloon, so they lost their strength and fell. fall down.

Looking down at Cao Jun who was busy below, Lu Bu had a playful smile on the corner of his mouth: "I didn't notice you before, but today I know that Cao Cao is so stupid."

"Cao Cao is stupid?" Tai Shici asked Lu Bu in astonishment, "Why did the Marquis of Chu suddenly have these insights?"

"Don't Ziyi think Cao Cao is stupid?" Lu Bu asked him with a smile.

"I don't think Cao Cao is so stupid." Tai Shici said: "Cao Cao is also the hero of the world. If he is stupid, there will be no smart people in this world."

"He is indeed a hero, and he was the hero who almost killed me." Lu Bu said, "In terms of talent and martial arts, he is indeed not inferior to others. But when it comes to deploying defenses, I will give him a The stupid evaluation is already flattering him."

Lu Bu went on to say: "At Dangshan, I also used hot air balloons when I fought with him. It's not that he didn't know that our air force has this kind of flying equipment that can fly to high altitudes besides glider. To deal with our air force, He just deployed crossbows and thunderbolt chariots at the top of the city. You must know that once those two things pass their shooting range, they are just useless wood."

"Balloons do fly high." Tai Shici asked Lu Bu, "If Marquis Chu deploys defenses, how will he prepare?"

"Dig a trap on the ground." Lu Bu said: "Dig a big trap, as long as there are paratroopers falling in mid-air, they will fall into the trap directly. If there is such a thing, how many paratroopers land will stay in Xudu How good. Don't say that we are everywhere, even if Cao Cao ignores us at all, we can't do anything big."

"The paratroopers were created by the Marquis of Chu. Of course, the Marquis of Chu knows how to deal with them." Tai Shici said, "Before today, the paratroopers had never been deployed on the battlefield. Cao Cao didn't know how to deal with them, so we can't blame him."

"Ziyi always speaks for Cao Cao." Lv Bu replied with a smile, "Forget it, if you think he is not stupid, then he is not stupid!"

The balloon moved forward slowly, and their every move was under the surveillance of Cao Jun on the ground.

Looking at the trajectory of the balloon, Guo Jia on the top of the city shouted: "No, they are going to the palace!"

"Quick! Dispatch soldiers and horses to the palace." Guo Jia shouted loudly: "Never let Lu Bu see the emperor!"

Guo Jia's order was issued, and immediately a group of thousands of Cao Jun ran to the palace.

When Lu Bu attacked, Cao Cao had already returned to the mansion and slept.

Lu Bu did not attack for several days, which made Cao Cao a little slack.

I thought it would be the same as the previous days, the two sides spent another peaceful night in the confrontation outside the city.

Cao Cao never expected that Lv Bu would suddenly launch an attack on Xu Du without warning.

Xu Du was in a mess, and Cao Cao left the mansion under the escort of Xu Chu and a group of guards, and hurried to the city wall.

Although Cao Cao was still sleeping when Lu Bu entered the city, the speed of the hot air balloon was indeed too slow, so that Cao Cao ran out of the mansion and could still see the more than 100 hot air balloons floating in the night sky.

"He wants to go to the palace!" The hot air balloon had already hovered directly above the palace, and Cao Cao shouted when he saw this: "Hurry up and send people over there, and wipe out all the enemy troops entering the city."

"My lord, don't worry." Cao Cao looked anxious, and Xu Chu persuaded: "The palace is guarded by General Xiahou Miaocai, and there are many soldiers there. Just now, Guo Fengxiao dispatched thousands of soldiers to help. It is also impossible to please in front of so many soldiers."

Looking at Xu Chu, Cao Cao frowned, and told him, "Don't wait until the battle in the city, you go and send my family out of the city now."

"If I leave, what will my lord do?" Xu Chu replied, "Why don't I arrange someone else to escort me, and I will stay by my lord's side."

"It's not that there are no one around me." Cao Cao said, "I can rest assured only if you escort my family!"

"Where does my lord want me to escort them?" Xu Chu asked.

"Go to the west." Cao Cao replied, "Go to Chang'an, you protect your family and wait for me in Chang'an."

"I'm still not sure about leaving the lord here." Xu Chu said, "Why don't the lord come with me!"

"If I leave, Xu Du will really be lost!" Xu Chu was still reluctant to leave, Cao Cao shouted to him: "Xu Zhongkang, are you going to disobey the military order?"

After being shouted at by Cao Cao, Xu Chu reluctantly bowed to him: "I will escort the lord's family out of the city first, and then come back to meet the lord after they are settled properly."

After handing over his family to Xu Chu, Cao Cao shouted to the guards, "Quick, go and find Cao Chun!"

Lu Bu led the paratroopers and took a hot air balloon to the sky above Xudu. Before they landed, the city of Xudu was already in chaos.

Cao Cao asked the villains to find Cao Chun. Cao Chun, who was really busy preparing his soldiers to defend against the Xuzhou army's attack, hurried over with a group of people.

Seeing Cao Cao, Cao Chun asked: "My lord, what's the matter? Where is Xu Zhongkang?"

"I asked Zhongkang to escort his family to go first." Cao Cao said to Cao Chun: "The enemy army is about to enter the city. You protect us and walk around inside the city, so that the soldiers can see that I am beside them."

"My lord, I can't do it!" Cao Chun was shocked when he heard the words, and quickly persuaded: "Once the enemy army enters the city, they will be killed everywhere. My lord, walking around, is undoubtedly sent to the enemy to shoot and kill."

"If I don't move around, the soldiers will think that I have escaped, so who will try their best to deal with Lu Bu?" Cao Cao said, "As long as we stick to the city and prevent Lu Bu from taking the city, the army outside the city can attack from behind. Give him a shot. Although Lu Bu is coming in menacingly, he is definitely the weak point. If we are frightened by him, we will really lose!"

When saying this, Cao Cao almost shouted.

Cao Chun knew that it was impossible to persuade him, so he agreed and said to Cao Cao: "My lord is walking around under my escort. If I encounter a strong enemy, I will block it. My lord, just retreat to places where there are many people. Our army is in the city. There are many soldiers and horses, even if Lu Bu's army enters the city, their number will not be larger than ours at the beginning. If you go to a crowded place, you will definitely meet our soldiers."

"I've written down everything you said." Cao Cao told Cao Chun, "Let's go!"

Escorting Cao Cao to boost the morale of the defenders in the city, Cao Jun felt as if something was weighing on his heart, making him unable to breathe.

Carrying the weapon and following Cao Cao, Cao Chun looked around vigilantly, fearing that a Xuzhou army would suddenly come out from nowhere and kill Cao Cao in front of his face.

Looking at Cao Cao again, in the face of such an embarrassing situation, he was not chaotic at all, and he was very heroic.

It's not that Cao Cao has never escaped. It can be said that he has escaped quite a few times in his life.

When fleeing in the past, Cao Cao knew very well that the general situation was over, and it was impossible to turn the situation around with his ability. If he didn't run, he would die in vain, so he chose to escape at that time.

Now that Lu Bu was about to attack Xudu, the danger was imminent, but Cao Cao did not choose to escape, but asked Cao Chun to protect him and walk around the city to boost the morale of the soldiers.

Cao Cao believed that his deployment in Xudu was completely in the upper hand, and Lu Bu's attack on Xudu was exactly what he expected.

Under Cao Chun's escort, he walked through the streets one after another, and Cao Cao let every defender in the city know that he was with the defenders.

At this time, Lu Bu's hot air balloon also arrived above the palace.

Standing on the hot air balloon, looking down, Lu Bu said to Tai Shici: "After we land, you immediately call the soldiers to gather together. We are not many in number, if we spread out, it is easy to be defeated by the enemy." The armies were defeated one by one."

"I have written down everything Chuhou ordered." Tai Shici responded, looking down at the imperial palace directly below.

The Xudu Imperial Palace at night gives people an indescribable sense of desolation.

It is not as magnificent as the Luoyang Palace, nor is it as vigorous as the Chang'an Palace, and it is not even as good as the so-called palace built by Yuan Shu when he proclaimed himself emperor in Huainan.

Xudu Imperial Palace, from the inside to the outside, reveals a kind of inexplicably desolate melancholy.

"Let's go!" Tai Shici was still looking at the palace below, when Lu Bu yelled, jumped up and jumped down with a parachute on his back.

Seeing Lu Bu jump out of the hot air balloon, Tai Shici also jumped out.

The two jumped out of the balloon one after the other, and the paratroopers followed suit.

Huge mushrooms bloomed in the night sky.

Cao Jun on the ground had never seen what a paratrooper was. Although Cao Cao had previously received news that Lv Bu was training an army that descended from the sky, Cao Cao and Xu Du were still puzzled as to how to land it. Mystery!
Lu Bu and Tai Shici led paratroopers to descend from the sky and landed on the palace where Liu Xie lived.

The "big mushrooms" blooming in mid-air are getting closer and closer to the ground, Cao Jun in the palace can already see clearly, and the ones falling down are Xuzhou troops with huge "mushrooms" on their heads.

"The enemy is attacking!" Wei Jun's shout came from the palace, and the paratroopers of the Xuzhou Army in mid-air opened their longbows one after another, firing arrows one after another towards the targets they could see.

Being attacked by arrows, Cao Jun who reacted also drew his bowstring and launched a counterattack.

Accompanied by the rain of arrows, Lu Bu and Tai Shici landed on the ground with thousands of paratroopers.

Paratroopers have long been familiar with skydiving.

As soon as their feet landed, they removed the parachute, took off the shield from behind with their weapons in hand, and rushed towards Cao Jun who was closest to them.

Lu Bu, who was carrying Fang Tian's painted halberd, fell to the ground with both feet. He swung the painted halberd and cut off the rope of the parachute.

The palace was full of noise and shouts of killing everywhere, Liu Xiehe curled up in the corner of the bedroom, trembling all over, fearing that bad luck would befall them in the next moment.
