Unparalleled Huaxiong of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 16

Seeing Lu Bu and the Bingzhou wolf cavalry behind him in good order, Zhao Yun raised his hand to signal the crowd to stop, and without any hesitation, he sent an order: "Retreat, retreat!"

The sun has fully risen in the east, the sky is bright, and several wild birds fly across the sky with flapping wings.

Gao Shun, who was beside Lu Bu, was the first to ask, "Fengxian, do you want to attack and kill this white horse cavalry?"

The tall figure holding a painting halberd snorted contemptuously, and the fiery red red rabbit horse under its crotch was like a burning fire, and its two front hooves kept pawing the ground, "But only two or three thousand soldiers and horses have already retreated. , I disdain to hit it."

Gao Shun looked at the white horse that was about to disappear from sight, and said: "But this does not seem to be an ordinary cavalry. I once heard that there was a cavalry under the command of Gongsun Zan in Youzhou who only rode white horses. The Wuhuan people outside the Great Wall are invincible in battle, and they are powerful beyond the Great Wall."

"It seems that this white horse cavalry is Gongsun Zan's 'White Horse Righteousness'!"

Before Lu Bu could speak, a tired and lazy voice sounded from Gao Shun's side: "In this case, let them go, or let the people from Liangzhou on both sides chase after them. About the bloodshed of my own brother."

The one who said this was Hao Meng, a general under Lu Bu's command, and an old man of the Bingzhou Army. Last night, Hao Meng slept soundly in the middle of the night, but was woken up and rushed to the Hulao Pass overnight. Naturally, he felt a little resentful.

"Humph!"

Gao Shun had always looked down upon Hao Meng, a man who was stealthy, cunning, greedy for life and afraid of death, so he snorted and did not speak again, but secretly regretted that he had not been able to fight that white horse Yicong.

As if hearing Hao Meng's words, a fast horse came running from the two wings of the Bingzhou Army. The man on the horse came not far from Lu Bu, cupped his hands and asked, "Marquis Wen, General Li Meng (Wang Fang) asked me to Let me ask Marquis Wen, why don't you pursue the invading enemy?"

This time Lu Bu led the formation, the central army consisted of [-] Bingzhou wolf cavalry, which can be said to be Lu Bu's trusted troops, with [-] Xiliang iron cavalry on each side, led by Dong Zhuo's central generals Li Meng and Wang Fang.

Lu Bu didn't say anything, obviously disdainful to answer such a question, Zhang Liao replied for Lu Bu, "Marquis Wen doesn't bother to fight against such a cruel enemy."

When the two scouts heard what Zhang Liao said, they returned to the front of their own army, ran back after a while, and said to Lv Bu: "Wen Hou, my general said that since Wen Hou doesn't like such a small contribution, you might as well send it to Lu Bu. How about giving this credit to my general?"

The scouts sent by Wang Fang also expressed the same meaning.

There was a shameless look in Lu Bu's eyes, and then he said: "Since the two generals are interested, please do what you want."

When the scouts sent by Li Meng and Wang Fang heard what Lu Bu said, they all bowed their hands towards Lu Bu, and quickly returned to their own army. Not long after, two Xiliang cavalrymen on the two wings of the Bingzhou army raised their horseshoes towards the army. Bai Mayi chased after him.

Zhang Liao frowned and said, "Fengxian, I'm afraid these two men are not the opponents of the white horse cavalry. I will lead a team to meet them."

Lu Bu said in a cold voice: "Such a waste, if he dies, he will die. Why save him?"

"But they are from the prime minister's side. If they are here, it is inevitable that the prime minister will have some opinions on me."

Lu Bu fell silent with a gloomy face. At this moment, Gao Shun next to him suddenly said:
"I'm curious as to how Hua Xiong managed to get here from the coalition camp under the pursuit of this cavalry."

"Wen Yuan, if the white horse Yi Cong is chasing you, can you escape with our Bingzhou Wolf Rider?"

Gao Shun's question immediately alerted Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and the others. Only then did they remember that the white horse Yicong was wearing a short bow and wearing light armor. They are all high-quality war horses from the north of Youzhou, and their pursuit ability on this plain is definitely first-class!

Whether it is the Bingzhou wolf cavalry or the Xiliang iron cavalry, they are all following the heavy cavalry route. Naturally, they are not afraid of a head-on confrontation, but if they escape the opponent's pursuit, and the pursuit is on the plain, it may be a bit difficult.

No, it's basically impossible.

As soon as Gao Shun said this, Lu Bu, who grew up almost on horseback, immediately realized the crux of the problem: there may be some unknown method in the Xiliang Army that can greatly increase the galloping speed of war horses!

Otherwise, how to explain that Hua Xiong and his group were able to run all the way for fifty miles without being chased by Baima Yicong?
At this time, all the generals behind Lu Bu were good at cavalry. Everyone understood what it meant if there was a way to increase the speed of the horse, and it meant absolute dominance in cavalry combat!
Song Xian looked at the direction of the Bingzhou army with a look of horror, Hua Xiong was there now, and said, "Could it be that Hua Xiong has some special method?"

Zhang Liao said calmly: "This Hua Xiong is really powerful. In one night, he beheaded Bao Zhong, defeated Sun Jian, and attacked the camp of the coalition army. According to the soldiers who just passed by, he broke through eight camps of the coalition army. There are 13 high-ranking generals, and when they are about to retreat, they can still let the brigade go first, and after they are finished, they have run for fifty miles with this white horse Yicong and have not been caught up.

In the end, Zhang Liao didn't know how to describe it anymore. He felt that this was simply impossible.

Hao Meng also quietly added: "I also urinated and inscribed a word in Yuan Shao's Chinese army tent."

Next to him, Cheng Lian, who was also under Lv Bu's command, said with yearning expression: "A real man!" At the same time, he slapped the horse's head excitedly, and the horse almost couldn't bear Cheng Lian's blow, and neighed uncontrollably.

Ignoring these two people, Zhang Liao looked at Lu Bu, and found that Marquis Wen also had a serious expression on his face. After all, even Lu Bu, who wanted to use three thousand cavalry to forcibly rush to the coalition camp, had to weigh his propriety.

Gao Shun on the side said: "According to the advancing speed of the Xiliang cavalry led by Hua Xiong, they fought three times in one night. They were already exhausted, and it was impossible to escape from the pursuit of Baima Yicong. This time, either Hua Xiong Is there any special method, or, the Prime Minister's Xiliang Army has some secret method!"

At this time, Lu Bu raised his halberd to end the discussion among the people, and the tall figure issued a military order:

"Gao Shun, lead three thousand riders to meet those two idiots."

"promise!"

"Wen Yuan, how many people do you send to follow Hua Xiong secretly? I want to know what kind of fodder their war horses usually eat, what kind of saddle they wear, how they are trained, and all kinds of things they fled all the way today. information!"

"promise!"

There was a burst of horseshoe flipping, and the state army moved in an orderly manner.
