Wushuang Wudi of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 23
Lu Bu let go of his thoughts and took the lead again, inspiring the soldiers and directing everyone to stick to the city wall.It was another brutal fight. According to Hao Meng and others, the six strong generals had already fought many times, and many of their sharp blades were broken, and there were countless ones that were bent or curled off their fronts.Not to mention the soldiers with ordinary weapons.

But they still held on.

"The casualty rate of the defenders has exceeded 10%. In the era of cold weapons, this is already close to the red line of danger." Lu Bu thought.

The bastard's Xiliang army, they are all dead by seven or eight thousand!The death rate is less than 10%, no wonder every general is trying his best to get more soldiers!
"How long can you hold on? I only want the facts and the most authentic answer." Lu Bu asked six generals, Song Xian, Wei Xu, Hao Meng, Hou Cheng, Cao Xing, and Cheng Lian.

"Uh..." Song Xian and the others looked at me and I at you, not knowing how to answer.

Everyone had no choice but to look at Wei Xu, who told him that he was Wen Hou's brother-in-law.

"Two days and two nights!" Wei Xu looked at Lu Bu's serious gaze, gritted his teeth and replied.

"In addition to the strategy of exhausting the enemy, the two times of the fire bull strategy, the battle has been fought for three days and three nights. Our army and the people of Xiliang have fought a total of 6 large-scale battles! Even if some people rotate, we can persist for another two days After two nights and four or five more fights, we won't be able to hold on any longer." Wei Xu bit the bullet and replied.

"Marquis Wen, forgive me for being bold! Why didn't the 11000 elites and the 7000 Bingzhou Army join the battle? With them joining, we can last longer!" Wei Xu couldn't help but said.

"Hmm!" Lv Bu snorted coldly, his brows furrowed, his overlord aura slightly revealed.After all, he was the commander-in-chief of the great army, the unparalleled flying general in the world, the important minister who held the great power of the court, and killed countless people, Lu Bu possessed his unique majesty.

General Liu Jian couldn't help being startled, he was frightened, and wanted to plead guilty.

"Hey!" Lu Bu waved his hand, "It's nothing, the Marquis is thinking." He said with a calm expression.

"Since this is the case, I will work hard for you and persist for another two days and two nights! You will be the first to defend the city! After all, without Chang'an City, we will have almost nothing. No matter how big the victory is, it is useless. What do you mean by Hou?" Lu Bu asked seriously.

"Promise! Swear to protect Chang'an to the death! Fulfill Wen Hou's order!" The six healthy generals quickly responded, this is Wen Hou wanting them not to have to fight for merit, as long as they guard Chang'an, it is a great achievement!
"Call Gao Shun!" Lu Bu said.

After a while, Gao Shun came over, "Marquis Wen!"

"Wu Da, you are prudent in your work. This Marquis entrusts you with one task, which must be completed within two days!" Lu Bu said.

"No!" Gao Shun said.

Lu Bu approached his ear and whispered the secret mission.

"Yes! Two days is enough!" Gao Shun was taken aback for a moment, and then took the order seriously.

For the next two days, Zhang Liao, Lu Fang, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun all seemed to have disappeared. They were completely gone, and they didn't know what they were going to do.Not to mention the three Jijiu lords, even the six masters don't know what they are doing.Although some people are curious, they also know that this is a confidential matter, and random questions will kill their heads!
Of course Lu Bu knew the importance of keeping secrets. Those who should be quarantined and their activities should be restricted must not miss any of them!
On the city wall, the battle continued, and the Xiliang people left more than 3000 corpses, while Lu Bu's army also lost [-] dead.

On the wilderness of Guanzhong, there are many more deep pits, and the buried people are all Han men who died in the battle.

It seemed that the Xiliang army still had enough power, but Lu Bu's army was exhausted. In the blink of an eye, in the evening of this day, not long after the Xiliang people had just withdrawn, the next wave of attacking troops began to prepare.

In the city of Chang'an, Lu Bu suddenly assembled all mobile forces, a total of 18000 people.The stage of defense and stalemate is over, it's time to counterattack!Soldiers and horses include 1000 Bingzhou iron cavalry, 1000 trapped camps, 6000 elite infantry, 3000 cavalry, and 7000 Bingzhou legionnaires.

He looked at the city wall, where the soldiers of the imperial army were exhausted, and there were only about 24000 people left, and only two-thirds of them could continue to fight.

"Everyone, the Xiliang people and the imperial army have been fighting for many days, and they have become tired soldiers. Both sides have suffered heavy casualties! And you have been staying away from the battlefield to recharge your batteries. Now, it's everyone's turn to go out. Tonight is the time for a decisive battle!" Lu Bu encouraged.

"Marquis Wen! We've had enough food and drink, and we're ready! We can go to battle anytime!" Zhang Liao and others were overjoyed and responded positively.

"Very good! Gao Shun, bring the things up!" Lu Bu said.

"No! Bring it up!" Gao Shun replied, and the other generals were stunned, all curious, what is it?Is it Zhuang Xingjiu or something?

But it was beyond their expectations.

A group of soldiers brought several sets of well-made and majestic armor!And the other group of soldiers carried several majestic weapons made of fine iron, which were Fang Tian's painted halberds!There was also the last group of soldiers, who brought several tall horses, very handsome, and their hair was red, as if stained with blood, very similar to red rabbit horses!
"This is..." Everyone was surprised, isn't this the outfit of Marquis Wen?
Sophisticated and gorgeous armor, Fang Tian painted a halberd, and a red rabbit horse, what is this for?
"Zhang Liao! Xu Huang! Lu Fang! Gao Shun! You four, put on this set! Fight tonight, and you will be Marquis Wen for the time being! It is Lu Fengxian!" Lu Bu laughed.

The four of them were a little stunned. They didn't understand why for a while, but they all obeyed the military order. While they were equipped, Lu Bu revealed his battle plan.

"Gao Shun, you pretend to be me and lead 6000 troops. The formation is located in front of the west gate of Chang'an City, and you are attacking the Xiliang people! The Xiliang army has built a lot of fortifications, and I will leave it to you if you fall into the camp!"

"Zhang Liao, you also pretend to be me. Lead 3000 troops, of which [-] are cavalry. Go out from the south gate of Chang'an City, turn west, and detour to the rear of the right wing of the Xiliang Army."

"Xu Huang, you also pretend to be me and lead 3000 troops, of which [-] are cavalry. Go out from the south gate of Chang'an City, turn west, and detour to the front of the right wing of the Xiliang Army."

"I myself led 3000 troops, of which 3000 were Bingzhou iron cavalry. I left from the north gate of Chang'an City, turned west, and detoured to the rear of the left wing of the Xiliang Army. Lu Fang, you also pretend to be me, and also lead [-] troops. Among them, A thousand cavalry departed from the north gate of Chang'an City, turned west, and detoured to the front of the Xiliang Army's flank."

Lu Bu ordered.

"The night is blurry, you are all martial arts masters, and with the appearance of this Marquis, the Xiliang soldiers can't tell the difference at all! Everyone is under the banner of Lu Bu, at the same time, one watch at night! The enemy siege troops When retreating, launch a full-scale attack! Tonight is a decisive battle! Do you understand?"

"Wen Hou is brilliant! This is really indistinguishable from the real and the fake! The five divisions launched an attack together, forming an encirclement, and the soldiers in Xiliang were in a state of chaos and exhaustion. You can only suffer defeat and flee westward! This is Gaozu's strategy of being besieged from all sides and ambush from all sides when Chu and Han were fighting each other!" The generals were overjoyed, and they all felt that it was feasible, and they were very confident in admiration.
