Chapter 46: The Beginning of the Great War, Protective Flame

  It's the ninth day of the new year, how was everyone's holiday? Today it snowed a lot here, with over 10cm of thickness. It didn't have to be so heavy! Hmm, I've resumed updates, can I ask for some recommendations from you guys?

  ………………

  Lü Bu came with a mighty force, and Liu Dai, the governor of Shangyong, suddenly had a clever plan in mind. This man was one of the few great talents among the royal relatives of the Han dynasty, although he was easily defeated by Cao Cao in the original history of the Three Kingdoms. However, this does not mean that he is a mediocre person. On the contrary, Liu Dai is a good internal affairs talent with an intelligence value of as high as 82 points.

  The Liu family will leave the city immediately under Liu Dai's orders and wait for Lü Bu's army to arrive.

  Liu Dai's plan was to let his four trusted generals exhaust Lü Bu's forces, and if they could defeat him, that would be the best outcome. Even if they couldn't, as long as they could retreat back to the city, replenish their troops, and then counterattack against Lü Bu, it would still be a viable option.

  This is Liu Dai's stratagem, with a mighty army, using his greatest strength, doing his utmost to fight with all his might, winning brings joy, losing brings worry!

  Before he knew it, the time had come to March. Lü Bu finally arrived at the foot of Changsha City. At this moment, he rode his horse and looked intently, seeing four men wearing armor, who also looked majestic and extraordinary, with 400 soldiers waiting in a tight formation for him to arrive.

  Seeing this, Lü Bu's fighting spirit was stirred up, and his anger ignited. He thought to himself that with the reputation of Lü Bu being spread throughout the city, the governor of Xiapi would dare to send only four small generals to block his attack. Is this something that can be tolerated or not?

  Lü Bu immediately patted his horse, Sweating Blood Gem Horse, and charged out of the formation, shouting loudly: "I am Lü Bu, who will fight with me!"

  Looking at the majestic and powerful Lü Bu, the four Liu generals' hearts were momentarily stunned, only then did they understand their commander's intention. The four generals exchanged a glance, and saw that their leader, Liu Jin, immediately rode out on horseback, saying in a deep voice: "I will come to fight you!"

  Liu Jin is the first of the four Liu generals, with a martial arts score of over 60 points and an intelligence value that is not ordinary. His comprehensive strength is absolutely the strongest among the four people. Lü Bu is so brave and extraordinary, and the hearts of the four generals are clear: only Liu Jin going to battle is the best choice!

  "Kill!"

  The two immediately entered the duel space and started a fierce battle!

  Liu Jin is the main general of the four generals, with extraordinary strength. The 100 soldiers under his command are also the strongest long-range attack archers, and General Liu Mu's military advisor skill is a very practical skill - Reserve Inner Strength (Initial)!

  Reserve inner power, this is a very useful military strategist skill, can reduce the inner power value used to launch martial general skills, so Liu Jin, as a dragon suit general, can actually launch three skill attacks!

  "Kill!"

  He narrowed his eyes to look at the enemy's troops, and Lü Bu had already made up his mind. He patted his horse, Sweat Blood Horse, and charged forward. At the same time, the flags were waving, and two hundred archers and soldiers rushed out with great momentum.

  The opponent was also a remote soldier, so Lü Bu did not hesitate at all and directly launched an attack with the advantage of numbers. The archers were even more subject to the army's sudden attack order, and they went all out to meet the enemy!

  Looking at the charging enemy general and his 200 troops, Liu Jin's face looked extremely unsightly. Lü Bu's military strength was too powerful, almost twice that of his own, making it impossible to resist, and the enemy had an advantage in numbers as well. Thinking of General Liu Dai's orders, Liu Jin gritted his teeth secretly, having made up his mind.

  The two generals had not yet clashed, and the archers on both sides had already begun to fire at each other. The Liu Jin archers were inferior in morale and outnumbered, so they naturally suffered heavier losses than Lü Bu's side.

  A distance of one thousand meters, the sweat-blooded horse only took ten seconds to arrive. Looking at Lü Bu, who was holding a halberd and riding a majestic horse, Liu Jin's heart was already tense to the extreme. He kept counting down the time in order to run out of the dueling space.

  Lü Bu finally arrived, killing his way through the ranks. Liu Jin gathered his thoughts and fixed his gaze firmly on Lü Bu, his Wu Hook sword at the ready, waiting for the moment they would clash!

  "Kill!"

  Liu Jin let out a loud roar, and Wu Gou's knife suddenly struck with lightning speed, its velocity almost impossible to see with the naked eye. However, at this very moment, a powerful weapon was launched later but arrived earlier, blocking Wu Gou's attack with an even faster speed.

  "What? How is this possible?"

  Liu Jin was shocked in his heart, Lü Bu was too powerful, even more powerful than the rumors. This man not only had a speed that was shocking, but also had strength...that was unimaginably strong!

  However, Liu Jin was already too late to be shocked. Lü Bu blocked Wu Gou's attack, and his Fang Tian Hua Halberd did not stop for a moment, rushing over at an even more tricky angle. Liu Jin had no choice but to swing Wu Gou with all his might to block it. However, at this moment, his hands were already numb from the shock of Lü Bu's Fang Tian Hua Halberd, and this movement was naturally slower by a beat. With a "pu" sound, Liu Jin was even more horrified in his heart, because this blow actually knocked off 11 points of his life value.

  Powerful, too powerful, the strength of General Lv Bu, the war god, seems to be emerging at the second level. With Liu Jin's strength, it doesn't seem too weak either, but one hit can actually knock off eleven points of his life value.

  This is indeed the legendary war god Lü Bu, who can still take on three heroes alone after numerous battles!

  Under the shock in his heart, Liu Jin did not become disheartened, but instead his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he saw that Liu Jin's body was suddenly surging with energy, which was the precursor to the launch of Wu Jiang's plan.

  "Linked Arrow Rocket!"

  Suddenly, Liu Jin let out a loud roar, and in his hand appeared an illusory large bow. A golden light blocked the attack of Lü Bu's halberd.

  Then Liu Jin drew his bow and shot five arrows in quick succession, the sound of the bowstring and arrows piercing through the air came continuously. The speed was so fast that even Lü Bu's sharp eyes could only see a fleeting shadow.

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!"

  The sound of the number resonated on Lü Bu's body, and this blow suddenly knocked off 20 points of Lü Bu's life value!

  Liu Jin's eyes lit up as he seized the opportunity to attack Lü Bu, who had momentarily hesitated due to Wu Zhan's surprise assault. With a swift swing of his crescent moon blade, Liu Jin struck at Lü Bu's defenses.

  At this moment, Lü Bu, who had just recovered, was unable to dodge and even more unable to use the halberd to resist. As Wu's hook knife was about to chop down on him, Lü Bu's eyes were filled with rage, his body suddenly shook, and his muscles tensed up.

  "Hah!"

  Wu Hook Sword still chopped Lu Bu, but what made Liu Jin's face bitter was that this blow only dropped two points of Lu Bu's life value!

  "Damn it!"

  Lü Bu's life value was reduced so much that he became even more furious, and with a very strange speed, Fang Tian's halberd directly chopped onto Liu Jin's body.

  "Not good!"

  Liu Jin could feel the impact of this blow, swift and fierce as before. 'Escape!' This thought immediately arose in his heart.

  At this moment, Lü Bu's archers had already eliminated their counterparts and were closing in on the two generals. If they allowed the local archers to surround them, they would have no chance of escape.

  "Hmph!"

  Lü Bu struck with anger, and his heavy "Sky-Piercing" halberd chopped down heavily on Liu Jin's body.

  "Thirteen points of life!"

  Liu Jin's soul was greatly shocked, and as a result, his life value was reduced to only sixty points, not even enough to withstand Lü Bu's five attacks!

  "Run! Run quickly!"

  Liu Jin urged on the sorrel horse under his feet, this horse was much better than the chestnut horse, which also made Liu Jin's escape speed much faster.

  Two hundred meters away from escaping the duel space, normally Liu Jin felt that riding his beloved horse, two hundred meters was just a blink of an eye, but now this distance in his eyes was so long.

  It was too long, the 200-meter distance was like a vast chasm in Liu Jin's eyes as he desperately ran for his life.

  At this moment, Lü Bu had already attacked him three times as much and also knocked down his life value by thirty-eight points. As a result, his life value was only twenty-two points!

  "Hurry up!"

  Looking at the exit within arm's reach, Liu Jin felt a slight relief in his heart, and he could escape soon!

  "Hmph!"

  Just as Liu Jinxi was about to escape, Lü Bu's long-planned blow suddenly came out, of course not a military strategy, but a fierce blow from the Fang Tianhua halberd.

  This blow directly knocked off 14 points of Liu Jin's life value!

  But all of this was no longer a concern for Liu Jin, because as long as he could escape with even just a little bit of life left, it would be his victory!

  But looking at Liu Jin's back as he escaped from the dueling space, Lü Bu didn't show any disappointment. Instead, a smile appeared on his lips: "The Lord's task... I finally have confidence in completing it..."
