The Conqueror Isn’t Alone

God was unfavorable. Just as Lu Bu and his five thousand strong cavalry were galloping back from the captured camp, it started to rain heavily.

The cold wind is miserable and the rain is dense.

Lu Bu's expression was cold, indifferent to the fierce rain, and he let the big raindrops brush across his tight face, leaving streaks of cold water across his face.

The soldiers trapped in the camp who were galloping at full speed and barely chasing behind the general had no time to care about him. They just gritted their teeth and hurried on.

In less than two hours, they returned to the outskirts of Xianyang.

Han Xin certainly didn't know that his wise brother who was bent on chasing Liu Bang would give up midway for no reason and come back again.

Facing the tens of thousands of Xianyang defenders surrounding the garrison, he was not busy arranging his troops, but remained leisurely, sitting as peacefully as a mountain.

Seeing the general's attitude, the Guanzhong Army, which was still a little panicked, was immediately infected and became unmoved.

Just as Lu and Han expected, Lu Bu took the lead and Zhou Yin, who was informed, immediately put the charge of treason against Chu and fleeing on Lu Bu.

Under Sui He's instigation, he personally ordered troops and led the army to the camp of the Guanzhong Army outside Xianyang City.

He came with great force, and it was clear that he wanted to annihilate the remaining Guanzhong Army, led by Han Xin, who was lucky enough to be the deputy general and a halberd-wielding man.

However, the development of the situation was far from smooth as Zhou Yin thought.

Although the military order was issued personally by Grand Sima, Zhou Yin rarely led the troops in person in the past. General Zhang Han, who was more familiar to the soldiers, had been missing for some reason, which had already made the army quite restless.

What needs to be attacked is the former Pao Ze.

As we all know, the guard of the Guanzhong Army is none other than General Lu, who has recently won the trust of the king and is said to be extremely powerful in martial arts. How could he escape camp and betray without any reason?

The Chu soldiers were suspicious, but they still hesitated to move forward despite Zhou Yin's repeated orders.

Han Xin had already taken this into consideration, and was unwilling to be the first to attack in order to prevent Zhou Yin from retaliating later.

When Zhou Yin could not move his troops and was in a state of despair, Han Xin smiled slightly and waited for the opportunity.

Little did he know that his wise brother had returned earlier than the opportunity he had been waiting for.

Because of the sound of rain and the darkness of night, when the cavalry led by Lu Bu approached from the west side path, neither of the two sides, who were facing each other nervously, paid any attention.

Lu Bu squinted at the dark front for a while, then reined in his horse and commanded in a deep voice: Stop!

After more than a month of painstaking training between him and Han Xin, and the fact that the Guanzhong Army was a well-trained elite force of the former Qin Dynasty led by unscrupulous generals, it was natural that the order be prohibited.

As soon as the soldiers stopped their horses, Lu Bu looked forward indifferently for a moment, then suddenly leaned down and took out the long bow that had been hung on one side of the horse.

He held the long bow in one hand and the rein in the other, holding the horse's belly slightly. The jade lion, which was shaking its head to shake off the water on its mane, immediately understood and slowed down and walked forward slowly.

Without Lu Bu's military order, the soldiers trapped in the camp did not dare to follow. They could only watch the general driving his horse forward alone, not knowing what to do.

The thick darkness of night and the sound of rain that blocked his sight became the best cover at this time.

Lu Bu's eyes were piercing, and his upper body was slightly bowed, revealing a small section of his tight and tight waist.

The rain had already soaked his inner clothes, and the water droplets slid down the smooth muscles like broken beads, falling into the soaked black breeches.

The wet hair sticks to the back, like a tiger descending the mountain with a colorful scalp. It walks leisurely, but silently approaches its ignorant prey step by step.

When he was only 150 steps away from the rear of the encirclement, he shook off the overly eye-catching pheasant comb without hesitation and reined in his horse again.

He exhaled a long and slow breath, and silently loosened the hand holding the reins. In the blink of an eye, he easily fully drew the bow and fully stringed it.

He turned slightly to the side, his wet black hair stuck to his forehead, one eye was tightly closed, and the other was slightly squinted.

The jade lion beneath him seemed to feel something. After lightly exhaling, he no longer shook his head to avoid the water. He allowed the rainwater to flow into his dark eyes and remained motionless.

Lu Bu's squinted eyes remained unblinking.

If it weren't for the fact that his chest was still rising and falling slightly, it would be like a lifeless clay statue.

It was as if ink had been splashed all around. Even though everyone's eyes had adapted to the dark night, they could only catch some outlines in this curtain of rain.

The outline of the rear army's banner, although vague, was still clear to the bones of Lu Bu, a veteran on the battlefield.

Pointing the tip of the arrow directly at the big banner, Lu Bu held his breath, but did not shoot for a long time. He seemed to be hesitant, but also seemed to be patiently waiting for something.

The heavy rain continued, and thunder rolled in the distance.

Suddenly a bolt of lightning struck, lighting up the surrounding area instantly!

The light was fleeting, but it illuminated the hesitation and uneasiness on the faces of the soldiers on both sides, as well as Zhou Yin, who was on the right side of the banner, unaware that he had become a living target, but still angrily ordered to fire!

What you’ve been waiting for—is this moment!

Lu Bu, who had been preparing for a long time, suddenly widened his eyes, and the scene just now was deeply burned into his mind.

Zhou Yin's position was also accurately known to him.

He hesitated no longer, made slight adjustments with his fingertips, and with a shake of his shoulders, the direction of the arrow tip changed slightly.

When the finger on the string was loosened, the sharp arrow left the string, and the frost burst, he shouted loudly: Go!

It's too late, but it's soon.

Even if there is a heavy rain and a strong wind; even if the night is like thick ink and the torch is difficult to burn; even if we are hundreds of steps away, the only thing we can borrow is the light that has just split the night

That lightning in the sky——

This arrow was still thundering, carrying the unstoppable power of creating the world, piercing the dripping rain, with a sharp and harsh sound of wind, and shot over the unsuspecting Zhou Yin.

When the wind stops, people are destroyed.

Poor Zhou Yin didn't even have time to scream, he fell down from his horse suddenly, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

All this happened so suddenly that only the personal guards around Zhou Yin were able to witness it.

However, because there was no light around them, they were unable to capture the unpredictable shot of the ghosts and gods. They could only inexplicably see the general who was riding on the horse falling off for no reason, and they couldn't help but panic.

There was no response to repeated inquiries, and they had no time to whisper to each other. They all turned over and dismounted, trying to feel for the fallen general.

When they finally found Zhou Yin's location, they were shocked to find that although Da Sima's body was still warm, he had no breath at all!

The source of his death was undoubtedly an arrow embedded deeply in his neck at some point.

Its power is so huge and its momentum is so brutal that those who look at it will feel chills all over their bodies.

——Not only did it penetrate the neck, but a complete arrow was also exposed!

What happened? !

When they were panicking, Lu Bu, who was the instigator, had no expression on his face.

For those who ejaculate, even if they can't see the specific castration, they can always have a general feel for hit or miss.

He knew that the blow just now was bound to hit, and that Zhou Yin would be either dead or disabled, so he calmly put away his bow and arrow.

After a while, he moved his wrist, which was numb from holding the bow for too long and exerting too much force, and then pulled out the Long Yuan sword from his waist and raised it high in the air.

He straightened his back, took a deep breath, drove his horse forward, and shouted like a bell: The king's sword is here, who dares to make a mistake--!

What a coincidence. Just as he finished speaking, another bolt of lightning flashed across the dark night sky.

The lightning flash was followed by rolling thunder. The moment was as bright as day, allowing the soldiers who were stunned to follow the sudden roar to see clearly the Long Yuan Sword that was raised high, and also the face of the person holding the sword. .

Maybe the thunderclouds were getting closer, but after the initial flash of light that Lu Bu waited for, before and after the roar, several more lightning bolts came one after another.

The brilliance is dazzling, like a trained dragon.

It also made everyone see clearly, the tall and slender young general riding a jade lion had a ferocious expression on his handsome face, which was covered with rain.

The momentum around him is majestic and brilliant, as if he is surrounded by flames that burn the sky, and the evil is like Shura coming to the world.

While the generals were stunned and awestruck, Lu Bu was dazzled by the continuous lightning, and his already irritable mood because he was forced to let Liu Bang go became even worse.

However, he has always cherished his life very much, fearing that if he held up the Dragon Abyss Sword for a long time, the thief might be struck by thunder and lightning.

So when they saw that the soldiers had been stopped by his roar, they all turned to look. They dropped to the ground, sheathed their swords, and roared: Da Sima Zhou Yin has colluded with the Han thieves and has betrayed the king! The king is aware of the situation and secretly ordered this general to eliminate him. Now, With the sword Longyuan, I will take over the entire army, why don't you return to my command as soon as possible!

This roar of dragons and tigers actually overshadowed the rolling thunder and resounded through the sky for a moment!

Both the Guanzhong Army in the camp and the Xianyang garrison led by Zhou Yin to besiege the garrison were all stunned for a moment.

They stared blankly at Lu Bu, who was as majestic as a general descending from heaven, and did not dare to move rashly.

Did the prestigious Grand Sima Zhou Yin betray the king, or did General Lu really collaborate with the enemy and escape privately as the Grand Sima said?

But General Lu appeared here, holding the king's sword - just talk about escaping privately, and it was already self-defeating.

Everyone was silent, and without hesitating for too long, they followed their instincts and chose to obey Lu Bu.

Even Han Xin in the camp did not dare to imagine that his wise brother could kill the rebel leader Zhou Yin in an instant and take over Xianyang, the capital of Chu, without even using a single soldier!

Something even more surprising to Han Xin happened later.

He didn't know that although this wise brother wore a tender shell, he was actually a seasoned and powerful man inside.

Although Lu Bu was defeated by those scheming people and died in a daze in the end, he was once the leader of an army and the commander-in-chief of an army. His majesty and dignity that he had cultivated over the years could not be lost as soon as Baimenlou died. Empty?

As early as when Chen Gong, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao were not around to make plans and charge into battle, he had to do everything by himself.

Not only do you have to think hard, plan for yourself and the Bingzhou Army, but you also have to go into battle in person and lead a group of idiot soldiers to fight everywhere. How can you not have a few brushes?

It's just that he has a carefree nature, and he likes to rely on the strength of his subordinates to cause troublesome messes from time to time. On weekdays, he either pretends to be stupid and muddles around, or is simply too lazy to do anything.

It's rare to get serious now. What's the point of taking care of the affairs of a city?

Back then, if that stinky old man Wang Yun hadn't kept his word, crossed the river and burned the bridge, and didn't ask him to meddle in the affairs of the government... he would still be able to capture everything with ease.

The first thing Lu Bu did after entering the city was to capture Zhou Yin and his close associates and imprison them, leaving Xiang Yu to deal with them after he returned to the capital.

Then he went straight to the palace where Grand Sima was discussing matters, and soon found General Zhang Han, whose limbs were bound and his mouth was stuffed with rags, unable to move in a secret room in the side hall.

Zhang Han was suddenly plotted. He was first shocked by Zhou Yin's betrayal of Chu, and then he didn't know what the situation was outside, so he was anxious in his heart.

Once Zhou Yin really succeeds, he also knows full well what will happen to him - no matter who Zhou Yin colludes with, he will almost certainly die.

Even if he was lucky enough to survive, facing the furious Xiang Yu, he would be gone as he neglected his duty and lost the capital.

Way to survive.

Unexpectedly, it was Lu Bu who barged in behind the chaotic footsteps. Zhang Han was so shocked that he let go of his restraints and sat up stiffly. Facing Lu Bu, who looked careless, his already weaker momentum dropped even further. point.

General Zhang, to Zhang Han's surprise, this young general, who was famous for his violent temper and even dared to beat King Xiang to a black nose and face, looked as usual and did not ridicule him at all. He was incompetent and was assassinated by the rebels. He said: Since the city's defenders are the ones you are most familiar with, I will leave them to you to take care of them from now on.

Still willing to use him...

Zhang Han's eyes were hot, he pressed down and he was filled with shame, and he said in a deep voice.

Throwing those leaderless dragons back into Zhang Han's hands made Lu Bu feel relaxed.

He can't say he has any experience - at best, people can only use it to the best of their abilities.

As long as he gets rid of all those troublesome things fiercely and decisively, he will be able to be at ease.

After all, he was just helping that stupid overlord to stabilize his base, and he wasn't here to seize the opportunity to seize the power of his son. How could he be willing to put in all the hard work and thought?

Let everyone return to their respective positions and resume their duties.

If it goes wrong, we can only blame that idiot for being blind, choosing the wrong person, and not being able to withstand the chaos.

After a moment, they sent a few more people out. Lu Bu snorted softly, but his mood was not as bad as before.

Although it is inevitable that there is still a bit of anger and resentment for letting go of the opportunity to kill the old Liu thief with his own hands, the arrow that killed Zhou Yin and the Long Yuan sword were indeed very effective...the consequences brought about by these two The pride has quietly overshadowed the unhappiness.

Damn it, luckily I came back early, so I was able to save those 150,000 unlucky guy from this old and insidious Soldier Immortal.

In Han Xin's eyes, his wise brother looked indifferent, and he didn't bother to change out of his wet uniform, sitting casually on the main seat of the Grand Sima's palace.

Even though his robes were dripping with water and his shoes were stained with mud, he didn't look embarrassed at all. He was calm and relaxed, as if he had always been the master of this place.

A pair of long legs overlapped lazily, and slender arms were resting on the low table. His whole body exuded a self-confidence and calmness that originated from his bones. He was bold and unrestrained, powerful and majestic, and had an indescribable - ferocious and savage nature.

Han Xin smiled.

He also saw Lu Bu's thin lips pursed tightly as he listened to the officials filing in one after another, reporting the details of the turmoil that night. He seemed impatient, but after only thinking about it for a moment, he calmly issued orders.

One after another affairs were arranged in an orderly manner. At first, the unruly Chu officials and generals were attracted by his momentum. Later, they became kind and willing to obey orders and perform their respective duties.

If you rely solely on a dragon's sword, even if it can suppress the temporary chaos, it will never be able to make the situation progress so smoothly and restore the chaos to order.

Han Xin was well aware of the power of this, and not only did he admire Xiandi more and more, he was a talented genius with both wisdom and courage, but he was also extremely humble.
