The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 133 Chapter 133
Those who come are not good, and those who are good will not come!
Xu Chu's saber slashed over, seemingly ordinary, but it concealed a profound skill. The sword moved the surrounding air, and a thick murderous aura rushed towards his face.

"boom!"

When the swords and halberds intersected, there was a loud noise, and a huge force was transmitted to Dian Wei through the pair of iron halberds.

"This guy has so much strength..." Dian Wei frowned, not daring to underestimate Xu Chu, and immediately abandoned Zhang Yan to fight Xu Chu with all his strength.

In an instant, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were fighting together. Both of them were like ferocious tigers. When they fought, the waves of energy driven by the two of them could be felt within two meters around them.

Zhang Yan retreated into the formation and directed the archers to shoot arrows outward, hoping to stabilize the position as soon as possible.

The two armies fought fiercely on this land. In order to be able to reach Dingtao within a day, Zhang Yan did not bring heavy cavalry or heavy infantry. He lost the protective power of his armor, and the number of casualties increased greatly. .

For a while, corpses were scattered all over the field, blood flowed into rivers, and screams continued.

The fierce battle between the two armies attracted the attention of Lu Bu's scouts. When the scouts saw Xuzhou soldiers being ambushed by Cao Jun, they immediately rode back to Dingtao City and told Lu Bu the important news.

After Lu Bu received the news, he immediately ordered five hundred cavalry, led Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Song Xian, Hou Cheng and others, let Chen Gong and Hao Meng defend the city, and went to rescue Zhang Yan.

Although Xuzhou soldiers were ambushed by Cao Jun, under Zhang Yan's command, they gradually stabilized their positions and began to counterattack Cao Jun.

The two armies fought fiercely. Dian Wei and Xu Chu fought for more than 20 rounds, but there was no winner. Tai Shici, Niu Jin, Xu Sheng and others were leading their troops to fight fiercely with Cao Jun.

Xia Houyuan led his troops towards Zhang Yan's position, but was shot back several times by the archers commanded by Zhang Yan.

Cao Cao rode his horse and watched from a distance. Seeing the fighting power of Zhang Yan and the others, he couldn't help thinking to himself: "I haven't seen it for several months. I don't think Xuzhou soldiers have such fighting power. It seems that Zhang Yan's tent has added a few strong generals ..."

At this moment, Lu Bu suddenly led his army to kill, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and other cavalry followed closely behind, and charged directly from behind Cao Jun.

For a while, Cao Jun was in chaos, and Lu Bu took the lead, and Gao Shun and Zhang Liao were all brave. The group of people was like a sharp knife, and rushed into the encirclement of Cao Jun like a broken bamboo. .

The arrival of Lu Bu surprised Cao Cao. The collision of hundreds of cavalrymen killed a bloody path, and soon Xuzhou's soldiers merged into one.

"Dian Wei!" Lu Bu suddenly saw that Dian Wei was fighting with Xu Chu, he yelled, and immediately rode his horse towards Dian Wei, Fang Tian's painted halberd rushed towards Dian Wei's vital points like lightning.

Dian Wei was shocked when he saw Lu Bu's sudden arrival. Xu Chu was in front of him, and Lu Bu was behind him.

It was too late to say it, but it was too late, Dian Wei swung his iron halberds forward vigorously, forcing Xu Chu away, turned his horse's head, and rode his horse to kill him.

Lu Bu rushed over quickly, saw Dian Wei fleeing, and rushed all by himself, so he didn't go after him, and shouted directly at Zhang Yan: "Zhang Andong, please follow me quickly!"

Seeing Lü Bu arrive, Zhang Yan was also overjoyed. Seeing that Lv Bu led Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and others turned their horses around and rushed out, he immediately ordered the whole army to follow Lv Bu and the others to break out of the encirclement.

Lu Bu was in front, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao were on the side, Zhang Yan, Xu Chu, Tai Shici, Niu Jin, Xu Sheng and others followed closely behind. Cao Jun couldn't hold back, and Lu Bu and others broke out of the siege and headed towards Dingtao City Then rushed over.

Seeing that Zhang Yan was rescued by Lu Bu, Cao Cao did not order to pursue him. The purpose of his ambush was not to destroy Zhang Yan, but to weaken Zhang Yan.

Lu Bu, Zhang Yan and others returned to Dingtao together, and immediately closed the gate of Dingtao city and took strict precautions.

After Zhang Yan entered Dingtao City, he only felt that his face was dull, but he didn't expect to be ambushed by Cao Cao.He asked his subordinates to count carefully, and only then did he know that more than 500 people were killed in this battle, and more than 2000 people were injured to varying degrees.

The whole army, like a defeated rooster, was downcast.

As soon as he entered the city, Zhang Yan arched his hands and said to Lu Bu: "Brother Fengxian, I really don't know how to thank you this time..."

Lu Bu said: "Zhang Andong doesn't have to be like this. Now that our two armies are in an alliance and marching and retreating together, we should help each other. Besides, if Zhang Andong didn't lead our army to arrive in time at the city of Puyang last time and lead our army out of the encirclement, our army might The entire army has already been wiped out. One life for another, we are even."

As soon as the words fell, Lu Bu turned around and said to Gao Shun: "Many soldiers under Zhang Andong's subordinates have been injured. Immediately ask the doctors in the city to treat them well."

"Here!"

Zhang Yan then asked Niu Jin and Xu Sheng to take the wounded soldiers with Gao Shun to the barracks to wait for treatment.

He also asked Tai Shici and Xu Chu to lead troops to guard the gate of the city to help Lu Bu's troops defend the city.

However, Lv Bu suggested that Zhang Yan's army should take a good rest before tonight on the grounds that soldiers from Xuzhou had come from afar, and let Zhang Liao arrange the barracks.

Zhang Yan didn't refuse, so he let Tai Shici and Xu Chu lead the soldiers to follow Zhang Liao, while he and Lu Bu went back to the eunuch's mansion alone.

In the prefect's mansion, Lu Bu had already prepared a banquet for Zhang Yan himself, and asked someone to prepare some good wine and food, and sent them to the barracks for Tai Shici, Xu Chu, Niu Jin, Xu Sheng and others to enjoy, and let Gao Shun , Zhang Liao, Song Xian, Hou Cheng and others accompanied him.

In the hall, there were only Lu Bu, Zhang Yan, and Chen Gong.

For Zhang Yan's quick rescue of Lu Bu, Lu Bu was still grateful. After all, he was already at the end of his strength, and the only one he could rely on was Zhang Yan.If Zhang Yan didn't come to rescue him, I'm afraid he might be wiped out by Cao Cao.

A few months ago, Lu Bu took advantage of the fact that Cao Cao was away with his troops and Yanzhou was empty. At the invitation of Chen Gong and Zhang Miao, he served as the shepherd of Yanzhou and fought without declaring it. What happened, I didn't expect that after just a few months, I would end up in this field.

There are too many ups and downs in life, and Lu Bu has nothing to say about his failure in life.

"Zhang Andong, it's too lonely for you and me to drink like this. How about enjoying a song and dance?" Lu Bu felt depressed and wanted to use song and dance to relieve himself.

Zhang Yandao: "Brother Feng Xian is the host, I am the guest, the guest is as the host does."

Lu Bu smiled, and said to the maid beside him, "Go and invite Mrs. Cicada!"

As soon as the voice fell, the maid left the hall and turned into the back hall.

Not long after, a very beautiful woman came out from the back hall. The woman's long black hair was coiled up nobly, dignified and elegant, and two star-like stars were inlaid on her jade-like cheeks. The bright eyes are as clear and refined as the hibiscus emerging from the water,
A pretty face with a variety of charms, with a slight smile and big eyes looking forward, once appeared, the smart eyes swept across the people in the hall, and when they saw Zhang Yan, they bowed politely to Zhang Yan. I shook my body.

The woman walked up to Lu Bu, also bowed her body, and said to Lu Bu, "I don't know why the general called me?"

"Diao Chan, I'm here to entertain Zhang Andong. There's wine but no songs. It's too lonely. You are the best at singing and dancing. Why don't you come and dance for me?" Lu Bu grabbed the woman's hand very much. Said.

When Zhang Yan heard Lu Bu call this woman Diao Chan, for some reason, his eyes couldn't help looking at the woman, but seeing Diao Chan's charming, every move, every frown and smile, was all captivating.

It's just that her petite body and waist that can't be grasped seem a little fragile, which makes people feel sad and pitiful when they see it.

"Is she Diao Chan? She is indeed a peerless beauty..."

Diao Chan seemed to be in his early 20s, but Lu Bu was 38 or [-] years old. No matter how Zhang Yan looked at it, he felt that Diao Chan followed Lu Bu, and he was a bit compromised.

Zhang Yan withdrew his gaze, afraid that staying on Diao Chan for a long time would arouse Lu Bu's suspicion.When he lowered his eyes, he inadvertently saw that Chen Gong, who was sitting opposite him, was staring at Diao Chan intently, with a bit of greed in his eyes.

Diao Chan's beauty is enough to fascinate all living beings, and Chen Gong is also a man, so naturally he is no exception.However, Chen Gong quickly withdrew his gaze, accidentally collided with Zhang Yan's gaze, and the four eyes met.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Gong noticed that there was a faint smile on the corner of Zhang Yan's mouth, and the light from those deep eyes seemed to have seen him through, which made him a little uneasy.

Soon, the musicians were invited into the hall to play silk bamboo and qinse, while Diao Chan had already walked to the center of the hall and began to dance to the graceful music.

Lv Bu stared intently at Diao Chan, Diao Chan's graceful figure and graceful dance, as if it could make him forget all the troubles in the world.

Zhang Yan also watched Diao Chan dance, but he noticed that Diao Chan's face was expressionless, and her deep eyes were even more dim, and her eyes were dull, like a body without a soul, just twisting mechanically body.

For some reason, a tinge of pity arose in Zhang Yan's heart. Deep in the heart of this beautiful face, what kind of person is Diao Chan?

While drinking, Lu Bu watched the singing and dancing, giving out a cheer or two from time to time. The wine is not intoxicating, but the person is intoxicated. Soon, Lu Bu passed out drunk in the graceful singing and dancing.

Seeing that Lu Bu was drunk, Chen Gong stopped the singing and dancing. Diao Chan and the maid helped Lu Bu into the room, while Zhang Yan slept in the guest room of the prefect's mansion under the arrangement of Chen Gong.

Tonight, the moon is bright and the stars are thin, Zhang Yan came to the guest room, ready to sleep, but Diao Chan's voice and appearance always floated in his mind, that lovely and pitiful appearance always made people feel distressed.

In his heart, there was also a ball of evil fire, which made his heart itch and toss and turn, but he couldn't sleep.

The night gradually deepened, but Zhang Yan didn't want to sleep. In desperation, he had no choice but to go out of the room and go to the gazebo in the yard to enjoy the moon.

The prefect's mansion is very quiet. The place where he lives is the backyard of the prefect's mansion, where Lu Bu and his wives and concubines live. The guards are only guarding the outside of the yard, so generally no one disturbs them.

Zhang Yan left the room and went straight to the gazebo. When he passed by here during the day, he paid attention to the gazebo.Knowing that there is a rockery, the gazebo is built on a lotus pond, the scenery is pleasant, and it is a good place for leisure.

He had just walked around the rockery and was about to reach the gazebo of the lotus pond when he suddenly heard a coquettish voice. He peeked out and saw a woman sitting in the gazebo, reflecting the bright moonlight. He could clearly see the woman His face was actually Diao Chan's.

In the dead of night, Diao Chan was sitting alone in the gazebo, and she frowned, as if she had something on her mind.

In one day, let Zhang Yan see Diao Chan twice, and this time he was a lonely man and a widow, as if it was arranged by heaven.Since it was such a coincidence, Zhang Yan naturally didn't want to miss this good opportunity. On lonely nights, it would be nice to have a beautiful woman to chat with.

So, he turned out from behind the rockery, and said with a chuckle, "Madam Cicada is so elegant, I didn't expect to watch the moon here?"

Diao Chan suddenly heard Zhang Yan's voice and saw a black figure appear again, immediately became nervous, took two steps back hastily, and asked, "Who?"

Zhang Yan walked into Diao Chan, walked under the moonlight, immediately revealed his identity, and said respectfully to Diao Chan: "Madam Chan, don't be afraid, it's me, Xuzhou Mu, General An Dong Zhang Yan, we met at the banquet tonight... "

Seeing Zhang Yan approaching, Diao Chan felt relieved, and immediately bowed to Zhang Yan and said, "So it's Zhang Shijun, the little girl is so polite!"
