Back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Chapter 154 Lu Bu Breaks Cao Cao
In Cao Cao's camp, Xiahoudun and Dianwei, one on the left and one on the right, both charged out. One with a steel spear and the other with a pair of short halberds, they charged towards Lv Bu. They are powerful, but because the double halberds are shorter than Lv Bu's halberds, they do not pose much threat to Lv Bu, so Lv Bu's long halberds often attack Xiahou Dun.

Lu Bu snorted coldly, seeing that Xiahou Dun was at the end of his crossbow, he bypassed Dian Wei, added some strength, swiped his halberd, and went straight to Xiahou Dun's throat!

This halberd was as fast as lightning and as fast as thunder. The crescent blade at the front of the long halberd gave off a cold light, and it was in front of Xiahou Dun in a blink of an eye. Although Xiahou Dun was terrified in his heart, he quickly raised his steel gun, and there was a loud bang, almost blocking it. Lu Bu's attack, but his hands were also numb from the shock, the steel spear was almost dropped, and the body and the horse were also crooked by Lu Bu's halberd.

Xiahou Dun broke out in a cold sweat, and said to himself, "Fortunately, the handle of the steel gun I used is also made of fine steel, otherwise it would have been cut off by Lu Bu with a halberd, and my life would be over!"

Dian Wei chased after Lu Bu, and cursed: "Three family traitors! Eat me with one halberd!" He shouted one halberd, but in fact two halberds came out at the same time, one stabbing at Lu Bu's back and front, and the other stabbing at him horse.

Lu Bu turned his horse's head, pointed his halberd, raised his head and chest, his eyes were full of contempt, and sneered at Dian Wei: "I heard that you have a bad reputation! But you can also use such a small sneak attack from behind. Human means! It will be too late for me to kill you first, and then take the head of Xiaoer Xiahou!"

The three of them fought together again, the horses galloped back and forth, the spears and halberds flashed coldly, the three of them could not approach to help each other, each of them defended their own positions, and when the victory was decided, they could take advantage of the prestige of victory and kill them.

Cao Cao hurriedly ordered the generals on the left and right to besiege Lu Bu. Cao Hong and Le Jin asked for orders to both rush to the front of the formation, and the four generals attacked Lu Bu together.

Lv Bu laughed loudly, "That's a bit interesting! But even if there are two more generals, it's just two more heads!" With a shout, the force on the painted halberd became heavier, and Cao Cao's four generals were still attacking less and defending more. Downwind, lost to Lu Bu's power of one man and one horse!
"We must defeat Lu Bu in this battle. If Lu Bu repels the attacking soldiers with his own bravery, I'm afraid the Tian family will not dare to rebel!" Cao Cao frowned, and ordered: "Who else dares to fight Lu Bu? "

Two generals rushed out from behind Cao Cao, one Zhu Ling and one Lu Zhao.

These two generals were originally Yuan Shao's generals. Seeing that Cao Cao was clearly rewarded and punished, he switched to Cao Cao's subordinates. He didn't want to anger Yuan Shao because of this. In order to keep the two generals, Cao Cao did not hesitate to break with Yuan Shao and refused to kill them. Heart, seeing Cao Cao's call at this time, rushed out immediately.

"My lord, this subordinate is willing to die to fight Lu Bu!" Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao shouted.

Cao Cao obeyed, and the two generals, one with a broadsword and the other with a spear, rode their horses towards Lu Bu.

Lu Zhao yelled angrily: "Grandpa Cao is the master of the Ming Dynasty, and you actually blocked Duke Cao's soldiers! You will die!" Regardless of his own safety, he stabbed directly into Lu Bu's chest and abdomen with his spear!

The six of them joined forces to fight against Lv Bu, and the momentum was huge. Lv Bu thought that he was not sure of victory. If he continued to fight for a long time, he was afraid that Cao's soldiers would break through the city. !" So he swung his halberds fiercely, swept away all the weapons of the six men, and cursed angrily: "If you fight more than you do, what kind of heroes are you?"

Zhu Ling laughed loudly and said: "As long as I can kill you! Fighting alone is nothing but a child's opinion!"

Lu Bu pretended to be defeated, rushed out of the encirclement of Cao Cao's six generals, rushed towards the main formation, and ordered loudly: "Quickly retreat to the city!"

The six generals are overjoyed!I didn't expect that Lu Bu would have a day of defeat. If you don't use this opportunity, when will you wait!Immediately ordered Cao Bing to take advantage of the momentum and press down on Lu Bu's soldiers!The six generals also pursued Lu Bu closely, if they could kill Lu Bu in one fell swoop, then Lu Bu's army would surely collapse!Puyang is at your fingertips!
Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao were the two generals who wanted to serve Cao Cao wholeheartedly, and rushed the fastest. At this moment, Lu Bu suddenly stopped his horse, and Lu Zhao couldn't stop. Falling under the horse, Lu Bu turned around and swept across with his halberd again, cut off Lu Zhao's head, put it in front of the halberd, and shouted angrily at Cao Bing: "How dare you chase me again! This is the result!!"

When Cao Bing saw it, he was already terrified!Don't dare to move forward!Xiahoudun, Dianwei, Cao Hong, Le Jin, Zhu Ling and other five generals did not dare to break into Lu Bu's formation alone and stopped their horses.

At this time, the generals who were in charge of the battle in the Cao army rose up and killed dozens of those who dared not go up to the front. Finally mustered up the courage again, rushed up!

"Kill!!" "Kill!!!" The voice of shouting "kill!"

However, taking advantage of Cao Bing's pause, Lu Bu had already returned to the formation, ready to return to the city.

At this time, a sudden change occurred, the suspension bridge behind Lu Bu was suddenly hoisted by the soldiers in the city gate tower, and the city gate was slowly closed at the same time!

"Hahaha!! Lu Bu!! I am the Tian family!! I have surrendered to Cao!! Your life is over!!" A wealthy middle-aged businessman appeared on the gate tower, laughing wildly at the city.

"It's the Tian family! My lord's plan has come true! Brothers, follow me into the city and capture Puyang!!" Xiahou Dun was overjoyed.

There was an imperceptible smile on Lu Bu's face, and he shouted loudly, "Don't fight hard, generals, follow me to the east gate!" The Cao soldiers who attacked the city were killed so much that they threw away their helmets and armor, and the moat was full of corpses, and the blood water stained the moat blood red.

Cao Cao didn't care about this. He neither ordered the withdrawal of the troops, nor ordered other main forces to attack the city wall. If those who are attacking the city wall can attack, they can attack. If they can't, they can attract more defenders. As soon as the door is opened, large troops rush into the city, and everything is settled!

"Hahaha! Talented plan is a success!" Cao Cao laughed, but at the same time he thought in his heart: "I heard that Lu Bu's concubine Diaochan has returned to Puyang City, and Lu Bu's daughter is also peerless. Break it, accept it first, so as not to be preempted by others! It’s too late to regret it!”

"Kill!! Lü Bu has been defeated, and all the generals will follow me into the city!" Cao Cao shouted loudly, pointing at Puyang City with his sword.

In an instant, Cao's soldiers under the city were like ants, and more than [-] people from Cao Cao's main battalion located outside the south gate all pressed towards Puyang City, and the south gate of Puyang City was just as Cao Cao expected. Open with a creak!

……

Xi Zhong was recuperating in the back camp. After Cao Cao and Xi Zhong decided on a plan, they forced Xi Zhong to return to the back camp to rest. All the plans were only discussed with other counselors, and Xi Zhong had nothing to do with him, so Xi Zhong only knew Cao Cao didn't know the details of the general movement recently. At this moment, he was surprised to hear that all the soldiers and horses of the battalion were moving together, and he was eager to ask someone to ask.

"My lord has already defeated Lu Buye, order our entire army to enter the city!"

Xi Zhong nodded, and said happily in his heart: "It seems that my plan has finally succeeded!" After these days of recuperation, Xi Zhong has recovered a lot. A counselor who stayed behind: "My lord, why did you attack so aggressively? Has the Tian family rebelled?"

The counselor smiled and nodded, and said: "My lord just praised Brother Zhicai just now, the Tian family has indeed turned against Lu Bu, and last night, taking advantage of the darkness, he sent down a letter of surrender, and made an appointment to act according to the plan today!"

"My lord received the letter of surrender?!" Xi Zhong was taken aback, his face suddenly turned pale, he choked on his breath, coughed violently, his face was both startled and terrified.

The counselor asked in surprise, "Brother Zhicai, why are you so panicked?"

"The lord has caught the trick!!" Xi Zhong gasped and said anxiously.
