Chapter 44: Is he the Sun family’s nemesis? [Please comment on flowers]

When Lu Bu got the news that Sun Jian was going to fight, he had already taken back Guangcheng.

Looking at the letter of challenge written on silk cloth in front of him, Lu Bu wanted to laugh a little.

He didn't expect that Sun Jian still refused to give up. He was somewhat brave and wanted to fight again.

The correct approach should be to temporarily withdraw troops to the south, and then wait for Suizao's coalition to attack. Dong Zhuo will transfer Lu Bu back before coming out to disgust people.

However, he also understood Sun Jian's pride.

As a famous general who bombarded everything with artillery and whose road to the Northern Expedition was never blocked, it would be hard for anyone to lose to such a coward.

What's even more funny is that Sun Jian agreed to fight on the Yingchuan Plain in seven days. Both sides did not rely on the geographical advantages and dangers, nor did they use conspiracy and tricks. They formed formations on the Great Plains like men and had a fair duel.

This approach is really quite a legacy of the Spring and Autumn Period.

Lu Bu understood in his heart that the methods of warfare have changed a lot since the pre-Qin Dynasty, especially with the saying"A war is never tired of deceit", wars began to use any means, with victory as the only purpose.

Like the princes in the Spring and Autumn Period, those who are unwilling to take advantage and wait for the other party to get ready before fighting are considered fools.

Nowadays, even if the fighting generals are still retained, it is more of a consideration of war and morale.

The real battle between gentlemen has almost disappeared

"Fengxian, what should we do now?"

In the lobby of the county temple, Hua Xiong glanced at the letter of war and had a strange expression on his face.

Now he still has not made a choice between Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu, but he has been hanging out with Wei Xu and others every day.

Before the war, he As a lieutenant general, he naturally has to be present.

"No matter how he fights, he always loses."

Wei Xu has always had great confidence in Lu Bu.

However, now that the situation is favorable, there are more choices.

"What do you think?"

Lu Bu looked at the three of them expectantly.

"It’s up to everyone to decide!"

The three of them answered in unison, as if they had agreed.

They thought they were very loyal, but Lu Bu was speechless.

Another warrior!

I want a counselor, I want a counselor!

"Then let’s fight openly and honestly!"

Lu Bu finally gave the order.

He had never worried about his own strength. He chose to fight because he had deeper considerations.

After several consecutive victories, he keenly captured the eyes and mentality of these Xiliang soldiers, and they became different.

Although , this is not enough to make them abandon Dong Zhuo. Just like Hua Xiong, the inertia is still strong.

Therefore, he wants to use a hard battle to deepen his mark.

Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, and at some point, they may bring surprises to themselves...

Seven days later.

Lu Bu took all his elite troops and formed a formation on the bank of Ru River.

This place has reached the territory of Yingchuan, and it is a flat river, which is very suitable for cavalry to charge into battle, and also suitable for large army operations.

Sun Jian had been waiting here for a long time, and as expected, he also formed a formation as agreed.

The surrounding field of vision is extremely wide, and there are no more ambushes.

Both sides have set up their postures, and there is no longer any difference between right and wrong.

All soldiers are upright!

They are all elite!

"Lu Qidu accepted the challenge, which made Sun Jian somewhat admired!"

In front of the two armies, Sun Jian rode his horse forward slowly, looked at Lu Bu and said with complicated emotions.

"General Sun is also a famous general of the generation, so you will be convinced if you lose."

Lu Bu also took a few steps forward and replied calmly.

Hearing the response, which he didn't know whether it was a compliment or a ridicule, Sun Jian actually felt a little bit sympathetic.

At this time, he finally admitted that Lu Bu's courage was indeed not there. under oneself

"good! good! good! Sun

Jian was also very proud and said with a smile:"If I win, all my previous promises will be in Liang County. If I win, I hope my previous promises will be cancelled.""

Since Lu Bu is fighting like a gentleman, he won't be able to cheat.

"It’s a deal!"

Only then did Lu Bu realize that Sun Jian had even given up on Liang County, fearing that he was going to finish his work in one battle.

"Sun Jian would like to say one more thing: with the talent of a general, serving under Dong Zhuo is not a long-term solution!"

This time, Lu Bu did not respond.

He knew what he had already known in his heart, but he did not need to be reminded by others.

After the greetings in front of the formation, the two sides did not choose a fighting general, nor did they choose to test.

With an order, the soldiers from the two sides launched the final battle. The general attack.

Lu Bu took the lead and rushed into the formation.

The soldiers were all inspired and their morale was greatly boosted!

Since this battle was a battle on the plains, and both sides faced the enemy openly, the story that happened was not tortuous.

Even for many years Later historians also wrote only a few words: Sun Jian's soldiers numbered 80,000, and Gaozu led 30,000 troops together. Sun Jian was unfavorable, but General Hua and Wei defeated Zu Mao. Sun Jian defeated Yique and retreated to Changsha. Sun Jian

's The final battle was just a minor event in Lu Bu's military career. In the end, together with the previous ambush at Maolin and the battle for Yangren City, it was summed up as the Battle of Yique.

Zu Mao, who had previously broken through, finally pretended to be Sun Jian. The queen died on the battlefield.

The embarrassed Sun Jian fled all the way south, with only a few dozen horsemen around him in the end.

When he was sure that Lu Bu was no longer chasing him, he finally looked back in the direction of Luoyang.

Looking at what was once so close , Sun Jian had not yet set foot in Luoyang, his hair was disheveled, and he let out a long sigh:"Lü Bu......Is it really my Sun Jian nemesis?"

After this battle, Sun Jian's mentality completely collapsed.

Not only him, but also the soldiers who followed him when they raised their troops. Once upon a time, they followed Sun Jian on the Northern Expedition, and they were convinced that Sun Jian was destined to return.

Now look at it. , Sun Jian, who was already like a god in their eyes, was vulnerable in front of that man.

Once the confidence in destiny was broken, people would no longer even think about resisting.

"Is he really the nemesis of my Sun family?"

All the way south, Sun Jian kept murmuring.

"Ah!"

At this time, Zhang Liao, who was far away in Luoyang, suddenly sneezed.
