Puppet emperor? Summon three thousand Xuanjia troops at the beginning

Taian Desert.

In the desert, there are flying sand and rocks everywhere.

The weather these days has been so uneasy that it feels as if a storm is about to swallow everything.

Lu Bu walked in the desert with a gloomy face.

"When can we get out of this damn place?"

"Where's the guide? Find him. I need to know when we can leave this desert and find a place with people."

He never imagined that the first thing he would see after arriving in the Dalong Dynasty would be this desert.

It's hard to be happy in a place like this.

After hearing his words, someone immediately pulled the guide over.

This guide is from the Dalong Dynasty and has lived in this desert since he was a child.

I am very familiar with the situation here.

Hearing Lu Bu's words, the director broke out in cold sweat.

To him now, the people of Daqian Kingdom are like devils from hell.

Especially Lu Bu, when he just entered the Da Rong Dynasty, he saw with his own eyes how this man killed people wantonly.

In Lu Bu's eyes, no enemy could be his opponent.

Even though he once thought he was a high and mighty national hero, he could not last more than a single round at the hands of Lu Bu.

So now in his eyes, Lu Bu is synonymous with invincibility.

"Sir, in a few days, we will be able to completely leave the Tai'an Desert."

He swallowed, then began to explain.

Hearing this, Lu Bu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"We can finally leave this damn place. In this case, let's speed up our pace."

But soon someone said:

"General, it may not be easy for us to leave here. There are several small towns ahead. If there are enemies there, it may be a problem for us."

Hearing this, Lu Bu's eyes showed a bit of disdain.

"Since entering the Dalong Dynasty, apart from encountering some enemies when we just entered the border, when have you ever met an opponent?

I'm afraid there won't be any enemies to fight us in this desert."

He said this not out of blind confidence or arrogance.

Perhaps he was a little overly conceited, but he was absolutely sharp in the field of war.

He has seen it.

The people of the Dalong Dynasty have already understood that there is a gap in power between the two sides.

So after the initial battles, the people of the Da Rong Dynasty might have changed their tactics and planned to rely on the cities to fight against them step by step.

This is a wise approach.

But this requires a large enough city to support it.

It is obvious that such a huge city does not exist in a place like the Tai'an Desert.

The earthen city of Tai'an Desert could not withstand the impact of a powerful warrior above the ninth rank.

Those city gates and even the city walls.

Under his terrifying power, they will be easily destroyed.

Therefore, such a city does not meet the conditions for the enemy to resist at all.

After hearing what Lu Bu said.

Although his subordinates still had some doubts, they nodded.

To be honest, he thought so deep down.

The enemy's idea is very clear.

In this situation, excessive doubt is sometimes not a good thing.

It might slow down the pace of the march.

Sometimes the outcome of a war depends on a single thought.

We clearly know that moving forward is a relatively safe choice. If we choose to stop at this time, it will be a huge loss of opportunity for the entire war.

As for absolute certainty...

No one can do this.

After walking for a while, an earthen city finally appeared in front of them.

The moment he saw this earthen city, a gleam of sharpness appeared in Lu Bu's eyes.

He didn't like fighting in the desert.

So he didn't want to drag it on any longer.

With his order, the army began to charge.

And of course he was the first to rush in the front.

Less than half an hour later, the flag of Daqian was already planted on the wall of Tucheng.

Just as he had thought, there was no complete resistance force in this earthen city.

It can almost be said that they took the city without bloodshed.

Although some soldiers of the Dalong Dynasty were very unwilling to give in.

But in the face of his power, there was no means of resistance.

Looking at the soldiers in front of him, Lu Bu said:

"I, the Great Qian Kingdom, did not come here to kill.

If you are willing to surrender to my Great Qian Kingdom, everyone can survive.

But you have to know that I am now on a forced march, so we don't plan to stay here for too long.

If you are unwilling to surrender, you may be executed.”

Lu Bu said it very straightforwardly.

There weren't many of these people in front of him, so even if they opposed him, he wouldn't pose any threat.

But he didn't intend to get entangled with these people.

Because these people simply don't have such value.

After hearing Lu Bu's words, the soldiers of the Da Rong Dynasty in Tucheng looked at each other, and then most of them slowly put down their weapons and knelt on the ground.

They surrendered.

If for no other reason, the scene of Lu Bu charging like a ghost had been deeply engraved in their minds.

It was impossible for them to disperse such a scene.

Perhaps they will never be able to get rid of the influence of this incident for the rest of their lives.

So at this time, surrendering to Lu Bu was not a very embarrassing thing for them.

It didn't take long.

Lu Bu had completely occupied the city.

"Pass the order down, the entire army will rest and regroup."

He also knew that the army had been marching rapidly for a long time.

We have captured an earthen city today, and it is not a good thing to take a break first.

The news here soon reached Ningshan's ears.

After hearing the news.

His expression was very serious, and then he found General Tianyuan and General Zifang.

"Generals, this is the commander of the army. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be a strong man above the ninth rank."

"Oh?"

The expressions of the two men also became serious.

For strong people above the ninth rank, this is enough for them to take it seriously.

"who is it?"

"Lu Bu!"

Ning Shan said Lu Bu's name.

After hearing these two words.

The two looked at each other, and then excitement flashed in their eyes.

"Lü Bu, I didn't expect it would be him."

General Tianyuan said:

"We have heard of this name for a long time. When we attacked the python before, the name of Lu Bu had already spread to the surrounding countries.

It can even be said that when Daqian was still very weak, Lu Bu was already the strongest among them.

I remember when Lu Bu first became famous, it should have been at the Great Python Court Meeting."

General Zifang immediately responded:

“That’s right, the Great Python’s grand court meeting also has some weight in the eyes of us superior countries. After all, the Great Python is indeed very powerful.

Lu Bu had already demonstrated considerable strength at that time, and it can be said that Daqian was unique at that time.

The only one who can be compared to him is the mysterious god of killing Bai Qi.

Later, Lu Bu's strength increased rapidly, and before long, he had become a powerful warrior above the ninth rank.

If he could be killed, it would be a huge blow to the Great Qian Kingdom."

The two of them sang the same tune and treated Lu Bu as a dead man.

Ning Shan heard their words and said with some uneasiness in his heart:

“Two generals, Lü Bu is a veteran of the ninth rank and above. His strength is probably not weak. If you want to deal with him, I think you still need to remember him.

Otherwise, if something goes wrong, all efforts will be in vain.”

Seeing Ningshan speak.

General Tianyuan chuckled and said:

"Ningshan, you're worrying too much. We all know that Lu Bu is quite powerful.

But now we are all strong people above the ninth rank.

Moreover, we have an absolute advantage in military force, and now we have found Lu Bu's location.

What we need to do now is to mobilize superior forces to attack him and surround him.

In this short period of time, the two of us cannot kill Lu Bu, but the army can also wipe out all the troops of the Great Qian Kingdom."

As he spoke, his eyes became very excited.

“Then we can use the power of our army to completely kill Lu Bu.

Don't tell me that you are not sure you can defeat the Daqian army without Lu Bu."

After listening to General Tianyuan's words, Ning Shan took a deep breath and then said:

“General Tianyuan, although my strength is a little bit weaker, I have at least reached the level of an eighth-rank national scholar.

Maybe we can't defeat Lu Bu, but it won't be a problem to wipe out the troops under his command."

There was even some anger in his voice.

Because what General Tianyuan said was a slap in his face.

General Tianyuan chuckled, and then said:

"Of course we two trust you, that's why we made this battle plan.

But before that, all the troops around him need to be isolated.

At least he can't get support from the people around him.

The strong man of Daqian...

Overall, it’s more than we have.”

When he said this, there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

But he didn't have anything to worry about.

Because he believed that after this battle, the situation between the two sides would change.

"Yes!"

Ning Shan said no more.

There was nothing wrong with the strategy discussed by General Tianyuan and General Zifang.

As for the troops that might support Lu Bu at the moment, he thought it was not too difficult.

Anyway, what they have to do is not to completely stop the other party's manpower.

It was just to delay until Lu Bu was killed in battle.

It should be easy to do by just sending an army.

Just like that, General Tianyuan and General Zifang began to lead the army towards the direction where Lu Bu was found.

At this time, Lu Bu had already left Tucheng and continued to move inland.

The desolate desert along the way made him feel more and more irritated.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Lu Bu arranged for his men to set up camp.

Just at this moment, a fast horse ran over from here.

The cavalryman got off the horse and said to Lu Bu with a serious expression:

"The general has spotted a large army thirty miles ahead!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Lu Bu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Have you found out the number of people?"

"No, but after a quick look, there are at least 100,000 men and horses."

Because he needed to come back and report the situation, the first-hand information he brought did not include the number of the other side's troops.

However, the subsequent spies will come back to report after understanding the specific situation.

"It's quite interesting. There are people from the Damong Dynasty who are brave enough to not rely on the city and actually want to have a field battle with us."

After hearing this, several generals under his command were also very surprised.

If they rely on the city to fight, there may be a chance of winning.

But now this approach seems a bit stupid to them.

"Report!"

Another fast horse came galloping.

"An army was spotted to my west, approaching us."

At the same time, not long after, the presence of the Da Rong Dynasty army was discovered in two other places.

After hearing this news, Lu Bu's expression finally became a little serious.

They were surrounded.

Moreover, the encirclement was open and aboveboard, with no intention of hiding at all.

It is obvious that the enemy has absolute confidence that he can defeat himself.

Finding themselves surrounded, the soldiers all showed some uneasiness in their eyes.

Originally, they believed that if there was only one enemy, they would not be afraid.

But now this encirclement means that they have no way of retreat.

A general walked up to Lu Bu and said:

"General, why don't we retreat first? If we retreat now, we may be able to escape the encirclement."

But Lu Bu just glanced at him and said:

"retreat?

Behind us are hundreds of miles of desert.

Where do you want to evacuate now?

And near us, there are friendly forces at most a hundred miles away.

Even if the enemy is strong enough, as long as I can delay them for a while, we will definitely win."

After saying this, his aura suddenly exploded.

All the momentum above the ninth rank was poured towards the general who spoke.

"I don't remember when I taught you that the first thing you should think about when you encounter a battle is to escape!"

In just a moment, cold sweat broke out on the general's forehead.

Indeed, he followed Lu Bu for a long time.

But Lu Bu never told them that they should consider retreat before fighting.

"But, the enemy's strength may be..."

Before he could finish, Lu Bu interrupted him.

"Who do you think this general is?

I don't know why the people from the Dalong Dynasty dared to surround us, but I will tell you.

Even if he has a million troops, even if I want to retreat, the first step is to enter their city!"

After saying this, Lu Bu looked into the distance.

Where do these big guys get the confidence from?

"Let them rest. Their encirclement hasn't been formed yet. So let's wait a little longer."

run?

He had never considered this option.
