Thirty miles northwest of Chang'an City, Zhang Ji, who camped here last night, sent two more teams of men out to loot the nearby villages, and then led his own thirty-odd riders and nephews to his nephews, marching sharply to the east.
At the beginning of the General Huangfu led the troops to surround and intercept them, because the opposite side of the number of people, if not dispersed in time enough, by the official army to catch up with them will certainly lose their lives, but also tired of his loss of a lot of his men.
But it was not long before the matter was closed.
Zhang Ji know is since the planning works, called the court for a moment can not tolerate them He, had to endure, again and again compromise, Zhang Ji's guts were raised more and more fat, dare to cut to the capital near the show of force.
And Zhang Ji feel the victory is in sight, Zhang Xiu in the joy, but also hidden worries, this day and see uncle excited to personally lead the troops to Changan a breakthrough, hesitated for a while, only to cupped his fists and promised.
Zhang Ji was unaware of his nephew's concern, and after seeing the smoke of cooking fires from a great distance away, he waved his generals to a halt and sent two scouts to do some spying.
Patiently waited for a while, these two scouts came back unharmed, rolled saddle and dismounted, reported: "It is a family of thirty or so people's manor, although there is a flag of the official army, was welcomed into the guest hall, from a distance to see, but only a weak literati and a man tall attendant."
Zhang Ji scoffed: "The official army is getting worse and worse, how dare they respond perfunctorily to this, presuming to use two people to fight against my Xiliang Iron Cavalry?"
Zhang Xiu, however, listening to the strange, in a hurry can not think carefully, hurried to stop to immediately set off, the two official army together with the uncle chopped under the horse: "This matter is quite a lot of suspicion, the Lord and slow down!"
Zhang Ji was startled and halted his horse, "Huh?"
Zhang Xiu anxiously said, "We have encountered the official army no less than ten times, when have we seen them infested alone, a team of less than twenty? There is always a demon in everything, so we can't be sure--"
Listen to what Zhang Xiu said but these, no evidence at all, only purely suspect that there may be an ambush ahead, Zhang Ji will not like to care about him, but also extremely disappointed reprimanded a few words: "a man to martial arts courage in the world, Yuan Ming when like a woman like a timid, listen to the word of the official soldiers, it is fearful, stumbling? But the district of two people, one or a scholar, even if there is a heavenly ability, in the Ji pro-rate this bow and horse skilled dozens of riders under the siege of the sky to go?"
Zhang Ji under the command of the nephew of the people who are not accustomed to this because it is a blood relative is treated extraordinarily generous, this time to see him actually upset Zhang Ji, could not help but lead a big laugh, and called the bad idea of Zhang Xiu blushing, turned on his horse, no longer talk more, before being stopped by Zhang Ji.
This one civil and one military, under the banner of the official army, was not precisely Yan Qing and Lu Bu.
If only one person, Lu Bu where not dare to go, but after Yan Qing insisted on going, he was extremely unhappy to hand over the safety of his own military priest to the hands of others, have to protect themselves, and then also do not go to the danger, but unprecedentedly conservative up, and sent Zhang Liao with the dozen or so elite to go around the patrols.
Lu Bu muttered, annoyed at being tied up, but could not bring himself to spread the fire on Yan Qing, and only spoke evilly when instructing Zhang Liao.
Yan Qing watched the scene with his arms wrapped around him, only finding it interesting: although Zhang Liao was young and not comparable to Lu Bu in terms of IQ and EQ, he was heartily convinced by Lu Bu's rebuke and nodded his head repeatedly.
For what Lu Bu was depressed about, Yan Qing was happy to see it happen.
He originally only thought, in case Lu Bu failed to fight fiercely and failed to pretend to be a bully and was seriously injured, even if he only had one breath left, he could use the "Peach" card in his hand to save him back, but he didn't want to be unintentional, and Lu Bu first abandoned the intention of going to look for Zhang Ji's group single-handedly.
But they didn't realize that they hadn't bothered to cast their nets, and the big fish came to their doorsteps in a haphazard manner with smaller fish.
Hearing the chaos outside suddenly shouting and killing, Yan Qing has not yet reacted, Lu Bu but saw the opportunity very quickly, dragged him abruptly turned around, galloped a few steps to the excitement of kicking and stomping the hooves of the red rabbit in front of the heel, the first leap on, and then reached out to Yan Qing pulled to his back, lifting the halberd horse, mighty and powerful to charge out of.
As the red rabbit sprinted, Yan Qing was carried backward by inertia and almost fell off the horse, instinctively holding onto Lu Bu's thinly armored and sturdy waist, but she didn't even realize how she hadn't mounted the snowy buckskin, and had been dragged onto the red rabbit by Lu Bu as a matter of course.
Occasionally, a few arrows that were shot at Lu Bu but deflected a bit came flying at him, and they were cut off in time by Lu Bu without panic.
Yan Qing where he could not see that he was his own lord in the busyness of the condescending distraction, protected in every way, and see the other party has been in no man's land, waving the cold light flashing Fangtian painting halberd to these is not his enemy of the pawns chopped under the horse.
Yan Qing felt strange again, but he would not be so ungrateful as to blindly clamor over this trivial matter and do something stupid as to drag him into distraction and interfere with the battle.
Only one side deeply regret this angle is not convenient to watch Lu Bu with fewer enemies, chopping soldiers and generals like chopping melons and cutting vegetables, like God's help of the absolute valor of the heroic posture; one side sighed that the strength of the thin waist body toughness is full, gripping the hand feel very good, at the same time, measuring the situation of the battlefield.
This glance coincidentally caught a glimpse of Zhang Ji, who was shocked to see the face of the Furious God who was killing people in the field, sending blood and flesh flying wherever he went and killing and wounding more than half of his elite soldiers in the blink of an eye.
Even though Yan Qing has never seen Zhang Ji's appearance, but also from the way he saw Lu Bu, as if he had seen the evil spirit of fear, as well as being surrounded by a few followers turned to flee the posture that at least a captain level big fish, would like to remind the fight is in full swing of Lu Bu, thought for a moment, and then their own ideas.
His fingertips flicked the slightly heated card in his sleeve, and he made a long overdue departure directly at Zhang Ji.
At this time, the soldiers are in chaos, shouting and killing the sky, even if you have to let out a petulant laugh, it can also be crushed clean it.
However, Lu Bu, who was concentrating on hacking and killing the enemy pawns and was enjoying himself, only heard a soulful and charming chirping from his ears, and could not help but freeze for a moment.
Immediately followed by a delicate plea from that all-too-familiar voice: "Husband~You have to decide for my concubine~"
LB: "........................ "
His ears suddenly soft, a pair of tiger eyes round, even the hand of the square sky painting halberd almost did not hold steady, as for his own stabbed under the horse, powerless struggling only need to make up a final blow of the cavalryman is even forgotten in the back of the mind, with almost to wring the neck of the force of the stiffness of a million back to the head.
Yan Qing was simply furious.
Never in his wildest dreams did he realize that the never-before-seen other line of dissociation had popped up for no apparent reason at the worst possible time, and predictably fell on the ears of Lu Bu, who was right next to him.
Even though he was all disillusioned and seemed to be in purgatory, and hated to dig a hole in the ground, he didn't disorganize himself at the most critical moment, but barely stabilized himself, and when Lu Bu threw in a complex gaze mixed with astonishment, confusion, and inquisitiveness, Yan Qing also knitted his eyebrows at the right time and wondered, "Did the Lord also hear what seemed to be a woman talking? Could it be that Ji that little boy has brought his own wife and family over?"
Lu Bu, however, did not respond, and only continued to gaze at him in an inscrutable manner, straight away telling Yan Qing to maintain his forced suspicion while looking around while secretly fuming in his heart.
Unaware of how the master riding on his back suddenly stopped responding like a clay puppet, Red Rabbit anxiously rushed up and stomped on the wailing enemy soldier a few times, retching and retching to make up for the knife.
Lu Bu is still in a trance, staring at his own military priest as if nothing had happened, even that clearly full of panic, but did not hesitate to rush him to kill Zhang Ji's violation of the heart to care at all, fortunately, he has been practicing martial arts for many years, even if he does not intend to respond to the enemy, but also has formed the instincts.
Zhang Ji rushed toward him aggressively, Lu Bu dully swung and chopped, like a knife cutting tofu, and in one go, this Dong Zhuo's remaining party who had managed to escape from life in the Ancient Dockyard's change, and who had been prospering for more than half a year in the outside world, was completely cut in two.
"Uncle--!"
Zhang Xiu watched as his uncle was chopped in half by that thunderous halberd, both unbelievable and in grief and despair, tearing his heart and lungs and shouting out, and just wanting to defiantly go to Lu Bu to fight for his life, he was forcibly taken away by his subordinates who were holding back their grief.
Yan Qing glimpsed this scene out of the corner of his eye, and in the heat of the moment, even the embarrassment of the party was forgotten, and he hurriedly pointed to the place and commanded Lu Bu without much ado: "Lord hurry up and release the arrows, and don't let them run away!"
LB: "Oh."
He responded painfully with his mouth, but also complied by opening the iron tire bow in his hand to full capacity at once, even saving the step of aiming, and carelessly shooting at the direction where Zhang Xiu and the others were fleeing in haste.
Yan Qing saw that although the person who was escorted to escape was hit by an arrow, he did not roll off his horse, but only stumbled, and continued to harness his horse to escape, and in a short while he left their line of sight, but Lu Bu stood straight and stagnant at the original place, without the slightest intention of pursuing them, he couldn't help but be both anxious and perplexed, and tugged at Lu Bu's arm, looking up and asking, "How did the Lord let them run away? "
"Oh."
Lu Bu perfunctorily responded, but Yan Qing really asked to ignore, face uncertainly turned back, a clip horse belly, urging the red rabbit all the way to the wind and lightning, sullen face shouting open the Chang'an city gate, lightening between the fire and stone back to the official residence.
Yan Qing was dragged into the foyer by him, and when he saw Lu Bu dismissing his subordinates, his heart couldn't help but sink one by one, but he still forced himself to stay calm and asked, "What exactly is wrong with the Lord?"
"And Shigemitsu asked what happened to Boo?"
Lu Bu lightly grunted, but the next moment it seems like a fierce tiger tackles like openly turned around, suddenly pounced, only to hear a clanging sound, sturdy arms on the wall sharp buckle, easily will be Yan Qing to tightly trapped in the narrow space between the wall and him.
He lazily half-dropped eyelids, one side condescendingly looked askance, one side seemed to smile non-smilingly asked back the clear-eyed, as if it was really pure innocence of Yan Qing: "Blame Boo fools, the last time in the court, before inadvertently told Mr. Blindsided."
Yan Qing stared at his eyebrows, took a deep breath, and as if he had suffered great humiliation, he coldly drank, "What nonsense is the Lord talking about!"
Lu Bu hummed and laughed disdainfully, his eyes turned slightly, and his sharp gaze then moved from Yan Qing's jade-crowned bright and condensed face to his long and slender neck, and then to the chest of the meticulously dressed robe where it lingered for a long time, and a hint of cruelty came out from the narrow eyes that were slightly narrowed.
He slightly tugged the corners of his lips together and clangingly questioned, "But it's really strange, Shiguang is neither a beautiful lady, and when did she get a husband who can make decisions for you?!"
