Chapter 9: The Favor Comes Attacking (Seeking Recommendation Tickets and Bookmarks)

  He Jin learned that Cai Yong had fallen and was coming to punish Ding Yuan, so Ding Yuan naturally could not sit back and wait for death. On this day, he gathered his generals to discuss the matter.

  Cai Yangshou will be for Lü Bu and Zhang Liao, while Xinye will be Ding Yuan himself, Xiang Lang and Chen Ying.

  Xin Ye Taishou Hall, Lü Bu and Zhang Liao's portraits appeared in the void through a medium.

  Xiang Lang and Chen Ying stood on either side of Ding Yuan, with Xiang Lang on the left and Chen Ying on the right.

  The people have gathered, and Ding Yuan said in a deep voice: "Through the news, it is learned that He Jin has already sent five generals from Shangyong and Xiangyang to attack me in Caiyang. Does everyone have any suggestions?"

  As soon as the words fell, Lü Bu was the first to speak. He still said proudly: "My lord, why worry! He Jin's nephew is in power, doing evil and going against morality. The generals he sent have no achievements, they are just like chickens and dogs, one person from our family can capture a large army!"

  Chen Ying, although he has surrendered now, was after all a subordinate of He Jin in the past. Upon hearing Lü Bu's words, his face turned red with embarrassment.

  Ding Yuan smiled and said: "Fengxian is brave and fierce, I naturally know that. But what about He Jin's numerous troops and generals? If Fengxian deals with one route, how will he handle the other?"

  Xiang Lang said: "If the lord doesn't send me over there, I'll go help General Feng Xian and General Wen Yuan fight against the enemy!"

  Zhang Liao heard this and hastily said, "My lord, it's not possible! To the north of Xin Ye there is He Jin's Hong Nong city, to the east there is Zhang Jue's Wan city. Both cities have many soldiers and powerful generals, we can't easily mobilize them!"

  Ding Yuan thought for a moment and said in a low voice: "In that case, is there any other way?"

  Although Lang was intelligent, when he heard Zhang Liao's words, Ding Yuan asked him, but he was a great talent in internal affairs and unfamiliar with military matters. Seeing that his suggestion was not feasible, he fell silent.

  Zhang Liao said: "I have a plan, but it requires General Lü Bu to take a risk. I don't know if it's feasible!"

  Upon hearing this, Lü Bu hastily said: "My family's martial prowess is unparalleled, how can I be afraid? Wen Rong, speak freely!"

  Zhang Liao looked at Ding Yuan, seeing Ding Yuan nodding in agreement, and then said in a gentle tone: "The city of Shangyong is only three months away from Caiyang. We need General Lü Bu to defeat the enemy army on this route, and then return to rest and wait for the Xiangyang army to arrive, and we will attack together!"

  Lü Bu heard this and proudly said: "What's the big deal? Just watch as I lead the army to defeat the enemy, capture their general, and present him to our lord!"

  Ding Yuan clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Feng Xian is powerful and majestic, I am truly delighted! It's settled then!"

  Several people looked at each other and burst out laughing, as if two mighty armies could be defeated overnight!

  …………

  Lü Bu immediately led his troops out and met with Cao Cao in less than two months. They encountered each other on a narrow road!

  Up until now, Ding Yuan finally found out who was leading the enemy troops from Xiangyang.

  Xiang Chong, courtesy name Juguai, was a military general of Shu Han. Zhuge Liang highly praised him in the Memorial of Outgoing Office: "General Xiang Chong is of gentle and even temperament, well-versed in military affairs. When he was first employed, the late Emperor praised him as capable, and thus the majority opinion recommended Chong for the position of Director. I humbly believe that all matters within the camp should be referred to him for consultation, and he will certainly be able to make the army harmonious and peaceful, with merits and demerits properly assessed."

  Ding Yuan's face was also stern, this Xiang Chong is a famous general of the Three Kingdoms, and has been praised by Zhuge Liang, which shows his talent. This is not comparable to that Zhao Sheng Wu Jiang, a kind of dragon suit general.

  "Can Lü Bu be dealt with?"

  Ding Yuan was very anxious in his heart.

  However, fortunately, the mysterious generals brought by Xiang Chong are all unknown small officials, and their names should be the Xiang family generals.

  During the Three Kingdoms period, the power of the gate was extremely strong. This is also a normal phenomenon for a wealthy family with a general at home!

  …………

  Xiang Yu and Lü Bu faced each other on the battlefield. When Xiang Yu saw that Lü Bu had come alone, he looked slightly surprised and thought to himself: "This Ding Yuan is indeed so arrogant, this Lü Bu is a rare and fierce general, yet he lets him fight against five people by himself? With his small family and small business, isn't he afraid of losing Lü Bu? His family business can be destroyed at any moment, can it?"

  Lü Bu emerged from the formation, his halberd at the ready. He pointed it at the five of them and shouted: "Which one of you dares to fight me?"

  The general pointed at the pampered one and said: "I have come to fight you!"

  It turned out that this person was Xiang Chong's general, Xiang Da. The troops he led were martial arts soldiers, which had a restraining effect on archers and crossbowmen. He was eager to make achievements, so he took the lead in lining up.

  In the first round, in the dueling space, Xiang Da didn't say a word and directly used the military order "Full Army Charge", intending to quickly approach the archers.

  Lü Bu narrowed his eyes and took a look, the archers retreated directly, and he rode out on horseback.

  Xiahou Dun was eager to make a name for himself and thought to himself, "I'm not afraid of you, Lü Bu!" With that, he charged forward on his red horse, straight at Lü Bu.

  A distance of one thousand miles, yet in just six seconds we will meet again.

  He held the Wu Hook in his hand, and with his own strength, his combat value had already exceeded 30 points. He was confident that he was far stronger than the original Cai Yang's guardian general, so he had the idea of being the number one general under the heavens, and the second thought.

  "Boom!"

  Wu Gou and Fang Tian drew their halberds, directly colliding with each other.

  Xiang Da, who was feeling proud in his heart, suddenly felt an unmatched distance approaching him. He had underestimated Lü Bu again, and this blow almost made the Wu hook in his hand fall to the ground.

  At this time, more than thirty Wu soldiers had died, but they were also approaching Lü Bu's archers.

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!"

  Lü Bu took advantage of the momentum and struck five times in a row, directly knocking off fifty points of life value, leaving him with only twenty-two points left!

  "General Da's soul is gone: 'The whole army retreats!'"

  He mounted his horse and fled immediately.

  At this time, the Wu Dou Bing had just fought with the archers and hadn't even had a chance to slaughter them when they received the order to retreat. The military order was like a mountain, and not one of the archers died. Although they were resentful in their hearts, they could only retreat.

  "Where is he going?"

  The speed of the sweat-blooded treasured horse is not something that ordinary red horses can compare to? Lü Bu rode his horse lightly and easily caught up with Xiang Yu, while Fang Tian's painted halberd lightly struck Xiang Yu down from his horse.

  This first round, Lü Bu won decisively and cleanly, without any damage to himself, let alone his archers.

  "Too good!"

  Ding Yuan was excited in his heart. In the first battle, he didn't suffer any losses at all. Ding Yuan exclaimed with great joy: "Lv Fengxian can always surprise people!"

  Lü Bu's first battle, cleanly and neatly captured Xiang Yu, with an air of flying momentum, proudly emerging: "Is there anyone else who wants to send themselves to death?"

  Toward Da's three generals were furious, but Lü Bu was too fierce. For a time, the five of them did not dare to come forward again. Even Toward Da easily defeated them. They were no match for Toward Da, let alone Lü Bu.

  Seeing his subordinates' fear of Lü Bu like a tiger, Xiang Gong's face turned red with rage and he said in a deep voice: "Xiang Kai, you go!"

  The general has given an order, and this cannot be disobeyed; he pats his horse and responds to battle.

  The second match was against Lü Bu.

  Xiang Kai was given a relatively rare Yellow Turban soldier, which was obtained by Xiang Chong and the Yellow Turbans during their battles, and bestowed upon Xiang Kai.

  The Yellow Turban Soldier is a mediocre troop type that can only counter the Martial Artist, while all other troop types counter it.

  He pretended to be weak and sluggish, thinking of delaying time, gathering all the Yellow Turbans, and protecting himself.

  But how can this be? The bow and arrow soldiers are most fond of attacking from a distance. The Yellow Turbans do not dare to charge forward, which is exactly what I had hoped for.

  Lü Bu, although arrogant and proud of his abilities, could not ignore such an obvious advantage, so he ordered the archers to disperse and fire at will.

  "Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

  Countless arrows flew out in succession, and the number of Yellow Turbans plummeted rapidly.

  In the blink of an eye, the number of Yellow Turbans had dwindled to less than fifty.

  Towards happiness with anxiety, if unable to give Lü Bu a loss, then Xiang Chong will absolutely not let him have fruit to eat.

  At this moment, Xiang Kai's eyes suddenly lit up, and Wu Jiang had already made his move.

  "Rockets are flying!"

  Only to see the commander shout loudly, countless rockets flew towards the archers!

  Lü Bu was enraged in his heart, and saw more than thirty archers killed directly!

  "Kill!"

  Lü Bu charged directly on horseback, and countless archers suddenly launched a fierce attack. The remaining Yellow Turbans died quickly!

  Huang Kai knew he had no chance of winning, and being a timid person, he immediately turned his horse around and fled.

  "How despicable!"

  Watching the frantic escape of Hua Xiong, Lü Bu angrily shouted.

  Xiang Kai fled the dueling arena, causing Xiang Chong's soldiers to lose morale. However, what surprised Xiang Kai was that he thought his commander would scold him, but instead, Xiang Chong lavished praise on him!

  In the third round, a warrior named Xiang Huo was sent out of the formation.

  Toward Huo, with a military strength value of around 20 and an intelligence value also in the range of 20, is a mediocre general overall. The troops he leads are shield-bearing soldiers, specializing in countering Lü Bu's troops.

  Marching into the decisive battle space is to follow the general's order, which directly means letting the soldiers "launch a full-scale attack" and then waiting in place.

  Xiang Chong was a third-rate general with both bravery and strategy in the Three Kingdoms, but don't underestimate the third-rate generals of the Three Kingdoms, his wisdom is not weak either.

  Let Zhang Fei take the field, just to make Lü Bu's archers and crossbowmen lose completely!

  The shield-bearing soldiers were most effective in countering the archers, and Lü Bu did not dare to be careless, starting to carefully command the archers.

  However, the damage of the shield bearer was not great. Lü Bu saw this and without hesitation, he personally went out to attack!

  Lü Bu took advantage of his own bravery and martial prowess, directly capturing the local commander-in-chief.

  He rushed towards the fire, Lü Bu launched a surprise attack, but unfortunately, the shield-bearing soldiers were now fully charging forward and could no longer be commanded to surround Lü Bu. All they knew was that they had to eliminate the archers first, so Lü Bu was only surrounded by about ten shield-bearing soldiers, who were fundamentally unable to block his path.

  He was anxious as fire and sighed in his heart: "Forget it, forget it, I'll just pave the way for Master!"

  Thinking of this, he would no longer force himself, but rather try his best to wear down Lv Bu's strength!

  The military commander had already made his move, and with a calm and composed attitude, he launched the military commander's plan - Wooden Barrel Impact!

  This skill is a powerful group attack, mainly aimed at killing soldiers. However, if the main general is close to the soldiers and there are no soldiers to block for him, it will also deal 5 points of damage to the local warlord's life value.

  "Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  Under the double attack of shield soldiers and Wu Zhi's plan, all the remaining archers died. Those shield soldiers also rushed to kill Lü Bu!

  However, Lü Bu had already engaged in a fierce battle with Xiang Yu. Although Xiang Yu was a worthy opponent for Lü Bu, he was defeated and knocked off his horse in less than ten rounds.

  The third round, Lü Bu wins again!

  Lü Bu's archers have all been lost. Ding Yuan is worried in his heart, now it's not good!

  Lü Bu himself lost only five points of life in this battle, but all his soldiers were killed, and he was also pale with rage.

  In the fourth round, before Lü Bu had even called out his opponent, the last general under Xiang Yu's command hastily jumped out.

  This one is called Xiang Qu, a literary general with an intelligence of 30 points, but his martial value is only around 20 points.

  Looking at Lü Bu's pale face, Xiang Yu smiled slightly and said: "General Lü Bu is a great talent, why not surrender to my lord? You can avoid defeat in this battle and avoid being ashamed in front of the world!"

  Lü Bu was proud in his heart and could not bear the humiliation from Chō, so he angrily shouted: "Do you dare to fight a great battle with me?"

  Xiang Chong was already very calm at this moment, and smiled: "You first defeat my family's general, then fight with our general. If you are Lü Bu, you can make me and the five servants surrender to your master!"

  Ding Yuan's eyes lit up at first when he heard Xiang Gong say this, then his face turned iron-gray: "This is forcing Lü Bu to fight to the death, and it's good for him to capture Lü Bu!"

  Indeed, Lü Bu's heart was greatly stirred, and he secretly thought to himself: "If it is so, I will have rendered great merit! The position of the number one general under the Lord's command, Zhang Wenfang will no longer be able to contend with me!"

  Lü Bu patted his horse and stepped forward: "Is this true?"

  "A gentleman's word is as good as his bond; it cannot be taken back even with a team of horses!"

  Lü Bu was now without any misgivings and shouted loudly: "Then let's see if I can capture all of you!"

  The fourth round, the duel begins!
