Li Dan and Wang Wei, two bloody heads flew into the air.

The two headless bodies, with blood spurting out from their broken necks, continued to rush forward for a few steps before falling to the ground.

Then, he was trampled into a pulp by the rolling iron hooves that followed him.

Fang Tian's painted halberd was like a dragon, radiating cold light, blocking the enemy's cavalry, and being shot by Lu Bu, his life ended in the blink of an eye.

In the rain of blood that filled the sky, Lu Bu stood tall like a Shura demon general. His blood-stained robe danced in the wind. Fang Tian drew an arc with his halberd, and corpses lay everywhere on the ground.

When Lu Bu broke through all the obstacles, Zhong Yao's figure had disappeared at the end of the road, and he could no longer be pursued.

"Huh, you're lucky. If you send me your head, I'll definitely take it off one day."

Lu Bu stopped his horse's hooves, grabbed Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand and stood up, towering like a mountain.

When I looked back, I saw that the battlefield with a radius of 100 feet was covered with rivers of blood and mountains of corpses.

Fifty million scattered Jingzhou soldiers were violently torn apart by Lu Bu's more than 20,000 cavalry, and there were countless casualties.

The setting sun is like blood, and the blood is like the setting sun. This killing is finally over.

The red sunset shone over the fields, and the light and blood contrasted with each other. The vast land was a red, like a pool of blood in hell.

Cao's 50,000-strong army suffered tens of thousands of casualties, and most of the rest fled back to Chang'an City. The remaining few chose to surrender.

After cleaning the battlefield, Gan Ning and other generals came to gather.

Gan Ning, who had been killed so happily, looked excited and proud, and shouted: "General, this battle was really killed very fast. We also captured more than 5,000 people. What should we do with these people? General, please tell me."

.”

"All those who were not injured were taken to Weinan for collection, and those who were injured were killed on the spot."

Lu Bu's face was ruthless and he gave the killing order without hesitation.

Gan Ning nodded, but said: "It's troublesome to kill them, why not just trap them and kill them."

Lu Bu sneered, glanced in the direction of Chang'an, and said coldly: "I will chop off the heads of those people, gather them together, and throw all their heads into Chang'an City in the future. I will let those who dare to resist resist.

So discouraged."

Gan Ning asked in confusion: "General, you don't like killing, why did you choose such a bloody killing?"

Lu Bu looked at the Jingzhou warrior in front of him and smiled and replied: "General Gan, if we attack one city after another, we will pay a heavy price. However, after several battles, the enemy's morale has dropped to a low point. We are now

Only by psychologically destroying their will can we completely reduce the killing."

Gan Ning understood Lu Bu's intention and was deeply impressed by Lu Bu's methods, so he immediately passed on the order.

Under the bloody setting sun, the killings resumed.

In the sky, countless crows were gathering and circling, chirping endlessly, seeming to urge the humans below to leave quickly so that they could enjoy this feast.

After the great victory, Lu Bu was not in a hurry to attack Chang'an. Instead, he ordered to camp on the spot and wait for Liu He's siege troops behind.

In addition, Lu Bu is still waiting for the outcome of another battle.

Only when the battlefield on the other side is won can he dare to enter Chang'an without any worries.

Zhong Yao, who was in retreat, could only think of escaping.

He ran away desperately, never looking back, no matter how many soldiers behind him were killed or injured, he just tried his best to escape towards Chang'an.

Zhong Yao Si Li Xiao Wei Mansion in Chang'an City.

When night fell, Zhong Yao finally escaped back to Chang'an.

What came back with Zhong Yao was the bad news of a great defeat.

Just a few hours ago, the soldiers and people of Chang'an were sending off their soldiers to leave the city, wishing them, under the personal leadership of Zhong Yao, to repel the devil Lu Bu and defend the paradise of Chang'an.

A few hours later, what they welcomed back was not the victorious soldiers, but a tragic defeat at their doorstep.

The entire city of Chang'an fell into panic in the blink of an eye.

Those Chang'an people who were accustomed to peace and happiness never thought that one day they would be so close to war.

Zhong Yao was shocked after his defeat, so he urgently ordered the four gates of Chang'an to be closed to prevent Lu Bu from pursuing his troops. At the same time, he recruited the defeated soldiers to regroup his strength.

What made Zhong Yao feel a little relieved was that Lu Bu's cavalry did not take advantage of the victory to pursue it, but recruited the defeated troops, plus Chang'an's original strength, to barely scrape together more than 10,000 troops.

Although Lu Bu's army was victorious, its number was only 15,000 cavalry.

With such a force, if you want to break through the fortified Chang'an City, you really overestimate your capabilities.

"Hmph, Lu Bu, even if you win for a while, don't be complacent. As long as my son Zhong Hui can choose the right opportunity to attack you when he retreats carelessly, I will definitely be able to defeat you bastards in a single battle."

Zhong Yao calmed down and regained his confidence.

After arranging everything to defend the city, it was already late at night, and the exhausted Zhong Yao just returned to the mansion.

At this time, Mrs. Zhong was still waiting anxiously.

Upon hearing that Zhong Yao was back, Mrs. Zhong was overjoyed and hurried out of the house to welcome him.

"Husband, you are back." Mrs. Zhong stepped forward to help Zhong Yao.

"Um."

Zhong Yao's attitude was indifferent, he just responded and strode towards the inner room.

In front of the servants, Zhong Yao gave Mrs. Zhong a cold face for the first time, which made Mrs. Zhong feel very embarrassed. She was startled for a moment, but she had to force a smile and follow her back.

Returning to the inner room, Mrs. Zhong carefully served Zhong Yao to take off his clothes and armor, but Zhong Yao kept a straight face and remained silent.

Mrs. Zhong couldn't bear it anymore, so she asked cautiously: "Husband, I heard...I heard that our army suffered a defeat in the battle to the west?"

Mrs. Zhong had long heard the news of Zhong Yao's defeat, but she was afraid that Zhong Yao would lose face, so she had to replace the defeat with "some failure".

Zhong Yao frowned slightly, but snorted coldly: "What if Lu Bu has a small victory? Chang'an City is impregnable, and I still have an army of 30,000. Sooner or later, I will take that man's life."

Zhong Yao's calmness made Mrs. Zhong secretly relieved.

Mrs. Zhong helped Zhong Yao sit down, and while adding tea, she asked: "As long as our son Zhong Hui is here, even if I show them they can't attack our Chang'an city."

"Lü Bu, I have a mortal enemy with him. How can I allow him to escape unscathed? As long as Zhong Hui can cut off their central supply line, I will trap him to death on the south bank."

Zhong Yao was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

Mrs. Zhong's expression changed drastically when she heard this. Without even thinking about it, she blurted out in shock: "Lü Bu's leaders are all Xiliang cavalry, and they are best at field combat. If you ask our son to cut off their supply line, are you asking for death?"

In a secret letter to Mrs. Zhong, Zhong Hui told Lu Bu strongly that Gan Ning was so powerful that he did not want to go to war, so he asked Mrs. Zhong to have a close relationship with Zhong Yao.

When Mrs. Zhong heard that Zhong Yao had sent out troops, she actually ordered Zhong Hui to lead a partial attack. She was so shocked that she wanted to give advice without even thinking about it.

Zhong Yao heard it, but it was extremely harsh. His old face, which was originally gloomy, couldn't help but change suddenly.

Angry, Zhong Yao glared at Mrs. Zhong, "What are you, a woman, doing for your own free time? These are national affairs, and you are not allowed to interfere. You want to control this, and you want to control that. What on earth do you want to do?"

Zhong Yao's fierce questioning only made Mrs. Zhong look stunned and speechless.

What kind of intentions could Mrs. Zhong have? It was nothing more than a woman's selfishness, but every word Zhong Yao seemed to point out was that she was secretly conspiring with Lu Bu.

Mrs. Zhong felt guilty and aggrieved. She looked panicked for a moment and didn't know how to respond.

Zhong Yao suddenly took a step forward, grabbed Mrs. Zhong's wrist, and shouted sternly: "Tell me, are you secretly colluding with Lu Bu and planning to betray me too?"

Although Zhong Yao is a scholar, he is still a man. Such a strong pinch only caused the pain to the bones of Mrs. Zhong's delicate wrist.

"Husband, you pinched me so much that it hurts. It hurts..."

Mrs. Zhong moaned in pain, but Zhong Yao refused to let go, and the force on her hand only became stronger.

"Whether you want to tell me or not, I will never let go of you today." Zhong Yao showed no pity at all.

Mrs. Zhong's eyes filled with tears in pain, and she said aggrievedly: "I am just here for our precious son, what kind of private message do you think I can have?"

Zhong Yao's solemn expression gradually faded, and his mind gradually calmed down.

Zhong Yao was also a well-known sensible person in the history of Cao Wei. After all, he was not a fool who couldn't think. How could Zhong Yao not understand the reasoning behind Mrs. Zhong's plea and self-defense?

Previously, he was only emotionally unstable due to failure, and would overreact to the slightest stimulation.

When I calm down and think about it, I can certainly understand my wife’s love for her son.

As soon as his thoughts cleared up, Zhong Yao immediately came to his senses.

"Hmph, I'm sorry you don't dare to betray me." Zhong Yao snorted coldly and shook Mrs. Zhong's hand away.

Mrs. Zhong lost her balance and her weak body fell to the ground.

When she lowered her head and looked at her wrist, it was already red. Mrs. Zhong felt aggrieved and in pain, but she didn't dare to say anything. She just lay on the ground rubbing her wrist and sobbing softly.

Although Zhong Yao's anger was suppressed, his suspicion was still there, and he thought to himself: "Zhong Hui now has 30,000 elite soldiers in his hands. How can he be defeated by Lu Bu and Gan Ning in an instant?"

While thinking about it, Zhong Yao didn't want to stay here for the night, so he snorted coldly and walked away.

Mrs. Zhong got up tremblingly from the ground and watched her husband leave. Looking at the deserted room, she felt even more aggrieved, and her eyes rolled down her face like broken beads.

The central area where Zhong Hui assaults.

The east is white and the sky will be bright.

The scouts reported that a 30,000-man army appeared between the main tent of Lu Bu's central army and the main tent in Weinan. They directly threatened the safety of the food channels in Lu Bu's main tent and the safety of the Weinan main camp.
