"Lord!" Wei Xu stared at Zhang Liao's far away figure, "Zhang Wenyuan is uneasy!" The thief
Lu Bu did not comment.
"This Zhang Wenyuan must have come here to seize the power of the lord!" Wei Xu said viciously, "When he defeated Kushan, it was the day when his plan was exposed!"
"Okay," Lu Bu waved his hand, "I understand."
"Master..."
Wei Xu was still waiting to talk about it, but was interrupted by Lu Bu impatiently, "I said! OK! Didn't you hear it?"
『…』 Wei Xu lowered his head, 『A subordinate, his subordinate is just for his lord…』
Lu Bu looked at Wei Xu, silent for a while, his tone slowed down a little, "Okay, I know, you go down first... Be prepared to set off tomorrow, and I still have to take care of military affairs, so there is no omission..."
Wei Xu quickly agreed and retreated.
Lu Bu watched Wei Xu leave and sat down again.
The bonfire leaps and makes a crackling sound.
After sitting silent for a while, Lu Bu fell asleep in silence.
Not long after sleeping, Lu Bu suddenly woke up in a dream, then turned over and sat up, clasped his hands tightly, as if he was about to attack the enemies hiding around him in the next moment.
There was silence around, with only occasional snoring sounds from afar and some nearby worms chirping.
Lu Bu was breathing heavily.
A fierce light flashed through his eyes, and he looked around. After a long time, Lu Bu's tense body gradually relaxed, then lay down again and closed his eyes...
On the evening of the next day, Lu Bu stood on the hill with full arms.
This is about twenty miles southeast of Qiuci.
The Tianshan Mountains extend from the north and merge with the plateau in the Western Regions. It seems to be unwilling to climb the sky, so some undulating hills are left in this area. One of them is where Lu Bu stands.
The wind became more and more violent, passing through the high and low hills, making a whine sound in my ears, and the shrubs and weeds on the slopes rustled together. In the wilderness, there were occasionally one or two wolf howls sandwiched in the wind, which made it feel particularly shrill when I heard it.
Listening to the wild wolf's howling, Lu Bu's hand trembled slightly, which surprised Lu Bu himself. He looked down at his hand, as if he felt that his hand betrayed him. Although the nightmare in last night, many scenes had become blurred and indifferent, and only one impression was very deep...
In the nightmare, Lu Bu was filled with all kinds of resentment, fear and sorrow. The big and small ones filled the entire space and covered the entire world. It made Lu Bu feel goose bumps when he remembered it now.
There was also the aura of death accompanied by those eyes, like a gloomy curse, imprinted in Lu Bu's heart, and it rolled back again at this moment, making him feel cold in his heart.
Lu Bu had directly faced the eyes of many people before they died. When he was young, Lu Bu would not have thought of these things at all, nor could he feel the horror of those eyes full of various strong emotions, but now he suddenly felt that he had ignored them or forgotten things.
Maybe he ignored more.
What did he want when he left Jiuyuan?
Did he get it now?
What else are you not getting?
And that piece of paper...
That piece of paper that looked like a joke.
Lu Bu stood silently.
Lu Bu really never expected that Fei Qian still kept the piece of paper signed back then.
But people always change, right?
The sincere love back then is indeed unforgettable for a lifetime, but what can it be?
Lu Bu couldn't help looking eastward, and the setting sun gently fell on this land in the Western Regions. The distant mountains were as dark as dark as the horizon, lying quietly, like a innocent child who was indifferent to the world.
Children will eventually grow up, and innocence will eventually become worldly.
Lu Bu was afraid of being hurt, so he would rather hurt others.
Before going to the Western Regions, Lu Bu had talked a lot with Fei Qian, from soldiers to war horses, from Western Regions to Taixi, from land to population, from military to civil affairs, they seemed to have all said and said, but the only thing that was not mentioned was what was the follow-up after Lu Bu conquered the Western Regions.
Lu Bu dared not ask.
Fei Qian didn't say it.
The reason why Lu Bu dared not ask was that Lu Bu was no longer the Lu Fengxian, who was so confident that he was the one who was the one who was the best in the world. At that time, Lu Bu had the idea of ​​escaping in his heart, but he was not willing to admit it himself. Lu Bu was afraid, afraid of losing again, and was driven away like a dog, wandering around, panic all day long with his tail between his legs.
The reason why Fei Qian didn't talk about, Lu Bu didn't know...
Because Fei Qian at that time was already different from Fei Qian at Luoyang.
When in Luoyang, Feiqian was like a pool of water, clear and simple. When Lu Bu was about to expedition to the Western Regions, he felt that Feiqian was like a sea, with no waves on the surface, but undercurrents surging under the water were very complicated.
Therefore, Lu Bu dared not believe it.
He was scared.
Fear.
Even if he conquered the Western Regions, he was still uneasy.
Lu Bu longed for more things to protect himself. People, power, merit, and everything was because under Lu Bu's arrogant, proud and complacent case, the little child curled up together.
A child who has not grown up yet.
The war horse sniffed, disrupting Lu Bu's thoughts, making him suddenly awake, and also making him turn his attention to him.
The Kushan army approached, and it was clearly planned to fight for consumption and slowly eliminate itself with the advantage of numbers. Therefore, the advantage of frontal combat is not very large. Just as Zhang Liao said, if the Kushan army can be pulled apart and eaten together, there will be a greater chance of winning.
Lu Bu looked towards Qiu Ci.
In that direction, there was still peace.
After nightfall, Zhang Liao would set fire in Qiuci City, and assume the responsibility of seducing the enemy, and then lure the Kushan front army here.
There are not many places where ambush can be found in the Western Regions, but not many. The ravines of nature are enough to hide some troops. There are hills and a large area of ​​flat land. Although it is not the best ambush place, it is barely enough.
Lu Bu looked up and saw that it was not long before the sunset was set, and the stars were impatient to appear in the sky.
Those glimmers flashed like countless cold eyes.
These eyes...
They are the murderous eyes in the nightmare, and they are also like the wisdom eyes of Fei Qian in the distance in Chang'an. They are constantly overlapping and increasing, staring at the Western Regions and at Lu Bu.
The present and the past seem to be superimposed together.
Ding Yuan's fearful and puzzled eyes, his scream before his death, "Why..."
Dong Zhuo's roar seemed to be vaguely audible, "I gave you food, clothes, BMW, and official positions. You are the dog I raised! How dare you attack me? How dare you?! I die... you will die... you will get nothing, you will get nothing... You will be betrayed after all... And I... will keep watching... waiting...
"Why don't you trust? Because you are not trustworthy!" Yuan Shao's insulting voices back then were still vaguely echoing in Lu Bu's ears, "If you betray once or twice, you will definitely betray the third time! Countless times! In the end, you will be like Ding Yuan, just like Dong Zhuo, betrayal from all relatives! Who else will use you? Who else dares to help you? Relying on luck once or twice, you want to take shortcuts, steal, rob, and deceive, but the tricks will never be a trick that can't be on the table! You are a shameless villain!"
There was also Zhang Miao's appearance of smiling but not smiling. "Wen Hou, it would be meaningless to say this... We all agreed before, you should resist Cao Mengde... You agreed with your chest, but now you said you can't stop it anymore. If you want reinforcements and supplies, do you think I am stupid?"
As for the three-inch Cao Cao, he was laughing proudly, "It's just a dog that is a loser!"
no!
Not so!
Who dares to betray me?!
No one can betray me!
Lu Bu gritted his teeth, his blood tumbling. He felt his violent heartbeat and his rising anger...
There is also a vague, a slight, small fear in the face of anger.
Flashes of cold sweat were bursting from Lu Bu's back, and when the wind blew, there was an indescribable coldness.
On this early summer night, Lu Bu could not feel any warmth at all.
Lu Bu suppressed his uneasy mood and turned around and waved his hand to the back. Wei Xu ran over quickly and whispered: "Lord, how can you ask what instructions do you have?"
Lu Bu said: "Let the men move around nearby, so as not to make noises, so as not to make any noise before the battle, and they can't hold on to the swords and guns." The terrain in this area was uneven, and the soldiers were hidden in the trough between the hills. If the Kushan Army had not been close, they would never have noticed that there were troops lying in ambush here, but it was also a bad place, that is, the surface of the Western Regions was dry and prone to wind and sand. If it was a big move during the day, it would inevitably be easy for people to see it. Now that it is already night, you can move.
Wei Xu smiled and said, "The lord is more polite! I will go and pass the order now."
After a while, Wei Xu came back to report, and then Lu Bu could also hear some tiny sounds under the slope.
Lu Bu closed his eyes and asked quietly: "Do you have any questions about my plan this time?"
Wei Xu glanced at Lu Bu, hesitated for a moment, and did not dare to ask.
Lu Bu breathed out, "Didn't you say that Zhang Wenyuan was unreliable before?"
"Lord, I just think... Zhang Wenyuan is not the same as us after all..." Wei Xu whispered, "If he really wants to harm us, it would be the best opportunity now..."
"Well..." Lu Bu responded, and then said with a little emotion, "You, don't think that Zhang Wenyuan might be this or that, just doubt him... It's just possible, just beware of Zhang Wenyuan first. This is not right... After all, he also worked with us back then..."
Lu Bu looked up at the night sky and said slowly: "You can't kill that person first because you are afraid of what someone will do... This is wrong... What's more, now that the Kushan army is coming, Zhang Wenyuan is also a member of the Han family, and it is justified to fight together. If you still have an internal conflict with Zhang Wenyuan at this moment, how can you fight?"
In fact, Lu Bu has been thinking about these for a long time. He deliberately told Wei Xu not to really listen to Wei Xu’s better suggestions or plans, but to use this reason to identify his confidence. Rather than explaining it to Wei Xu, he was actually more of the ingredients he repeated.
The Kushan coalition has a large number of people, but the large number does not necessarily mean that it is safe to win. As long as you can fight a simple and beautiful battle and make the Kushan coalition suffer a little, you may have various differences and eventually lead to the collapse of the entire coalition.
Just like the Shandong coalition forces back then...
Qiu Ci was the Yangcheng back then.
Everything is like a repeat, everything is like a repeat.
Lu Bu was a little confused when he was in the memories of the past, and his expression became slightly confused. He couldn't see the direction of the future clearly, and could only follow the waves in the surging waves, being held in it, as if he had made a choice for himself, but in fact he was all in the calculations of others.
Then can he see the future clearly now?
Can you escape this river and jump out of others' plans?
Lu Bu glanced at Wei Xu.
Wei Xu smiled at Lu Bu.
This smile looks a little silly.
Lu Bu laughed too.
Also a bit stupid.
Sometimes when Lu Bu looks at Wei Xu, he feels that Wei Xu is actually himself.
A self who is more timid, more incompetent, but magnifies his desire.
『Beating Kushan means that the merits will be fulfilled.』 Lu Bu said to Wei Xu, 『When the time... forget it, the most important thing now is to defeat Kushan! Do you understand? You must defeat Kushan!』
The night gradually became deeper, and a little light and fire suddenly rose in the direction of Qiu Ci. Then more light and fire joined, gathering into a dazzling ray of light, as if it was about to penetrate from the ground to the sky, and the sky was reflected by the fire, as if a piece of ink was missing!
It seemed that there was also noisy sounds coming from the night wind.
Chasing the escaped prey is the instinct of human beings engraved in genes in ancient times. So when the Kushan coalition saw the Han army burning Qiu Ci to escape, how many people could tolerate this instinctive drive?
Wei Xu slapped his hands, "Haha, this fire is so fast! It's such a big fire! This fire is not only twenty miles away, but it can be seen a hundred miles away! The Kushan coalition will definitely send people to test it, and then lure it to this place... With such a slap in front and behind, it's a great victory!"
Lu Bu was relieved as he looked at the rising fire, and everything seemed to be going according to the plan.
But for some reason, Lu Bu still had a vague worry in his heart, like a ferocious beast entrenched deep in his heart, showing his fierce eyes in the dark abyss and roaring in a low voice.
Lu Bu has not fought hard and bad battles in the past, but why did he feel so great pressure this time?
Lu Bu couldn't quite understand.
I couldn't quite understand, so I didn't continue to think about it.
Wei Xu's breathing became rapid and said excitedly: "Lord, do you want the men to prepare for the battle now?"
Lu Bu nodded and said, "It's good, but there's no need to be too anxious. Act first and give the war horses some essence... No matter how fast the Kushan army moves, it will take one or two hours... We can't consume too much energy at the moment to avoid..."
As he was talking, Lu Bu suddenly felt a strange tremor on the ground, and then a rolling sound came over.
Lu Bu couldn't help but be surprised. It was obvious that there were a large number of cavalry running quickly!
But in this direction, this number...
Something is wrong!
In the blink of an eye, the sound of horse hooves was already ringing all over the field, and the earth was trembling constantly!
The night was shrouded in the sky, and the smoke of the earth could not be seen accurately, as if an enemy was coming from all directions.
Lu Bu looked west, but there was nothing unusual in the west. When Lu Bu turned east, his head buzzed, and he saw torches waving and shaking in the east, as if countless meteors were rising from the ground, sweeping over from the east!
Who is this?
Is it the cavalry's men? The thief
Lu Bu's face suddenly turned pale. Why didn't there tell the scouts in advance? Lu Bu recalled that it was Zhang Liao! It was Zhang Liao who expressed that he should focus on the Kushan trends in order to master the best time to set fire!
So most of the scouts were used in the west!
It seemed like a coldness spread from the ground to the whole body, making Lu Bu's thinking frozen together!
Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan!
Could it be that Zhang Liao’s so-called suggestion was actually to frame me?! It was said that it burned Qiu Cicheng and attracted the Kushan coalition forces, but it was actually a signal to the rear, intending to wipe me out here?!
Good plan!
So vicious! Thieves
What a Zhang Wenyuan!
What a cavalry general!
"Lord, lord!" Wei Xu shouted anxiously.
Lu Bu came back from his initial shock and found that not only Wei Xu, but also the guards behind him and the soldiers on the slope were all frightened and uneasy.
Wei Xu seemed to have lost all his blood, pale face, trembling hands, and asked anxiously: "Lord, this, the enemy... the enemy is coming from the east... what should I do, what should I do?"
"Haha...hahahaha!" Lu Bu suddenly laughed, "You guys! You guys! You guys! You guys! With me, Lu Fengxian, here, who can stop me?! You guys! Since these little thieves jumped out, I don't have to look for you! I'll send my order! I'll start the army immediately and go to battle with someone! Even if it's a sea of ​​swords and fire, I'll flatten him!"
Amid the loud response of the soldiers, Lu Bu went down the earth slope, got on the war horse, and then led his troops to come out from behind the hills, facing the enemy in the east...
Behind the hills, the Kushan coalition forces coming from the west cannot see their troops, but the enemies coming from the east can easily see the lights and fires coming from their side. Since they can no longer hide, it is better to fight directly!
In the dark night, the enemy troops coming from the east, the overwhelming ignitions seemed to slow down some speed, gradually gathering to form a bright sea of ​​torches, as if they were sorting out the queues and gathering the formation that had become loose due to the rapid march.
Who is the enemy from the east?
Lu Bu held the Fang Tian Painting Halberd in his hand tightly.
No matter what, anyway, as long as you appear in front of him now, you will be enemies!
Everyone who dares to stop Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian's steps are enemies!
There is only one way to deal with the enemy...
kill!
Just kill, just kill it.
Kill, fight out, fight out, fight out a way, fight out a world!
It's so cool!
This is what Lu Bu always thought over the years, and it is also the path he has implemented from beginning to end!
"kill!"
Lu Bu raised the Fang Tian Painted Ridge and roared like a trapped beast...
