Chapter 637 Encounter with Liu, Guan and Zhang

Soon, the three hundred cavalrymen came into view. Zhou Cang, who was beside Lu Cheng, took a closer look and said, "General, these seem to be the Xiliang cavalrymen under Dong Zhuo. I'm afraid they will be difficult to deal with."

Lu Cheng was looking at the horses of the cavalry, thinking about how to use them. When he heard Zhou Cang's words, he just casually replied, "Only 300 cavalrymen. Wait for the horses."

"General, let me take the cavalry with me."

"The cavalry stays put!"

Among the more than 2,000 people under Lu Cheng's command, only 30 or 40 were selected who could ride horses. They were just able to ride horses, not cavalry. If they were lost in the battle, there would be no one left to serve as scouts.

After giving the order, Lu Cheng rushed towards the three hundred cavalrymen alone.

When the two sides were within an arrow's reach, Lu Cheng took out a selected strong bow from his horse, drew the bow and shot an arrow, instantly hitting a cavalryman who was rushing in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Cheng kept repeating the action of drawing the bow and putting arrows on it. Feather arrows were shot out one after another, and every arrow hit the target. The enemies fell off their horses one after another.

As the two sides approached, Lu Cheng had already shot more than a dozen arrows, shooting down more than a dozen cavalrymen.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Cheng brandished the long sword in his hand and charged into the enemy camp. Wherever he went, he killed everyone. No body was intact. Some had their heads chopped off, and some were directly cut in half. Blood splattered everywhere, and no one could block his attack.

The people on the hillside were so excited that they couldn't help but rush down and kill the enemy with Lu Cheng, as if the cavalry on the opposite side were made of tofu.

Fortunately, Zhou Cang controlled the situation and prevented anyone from acting rashly.

Lu Cheng quickly killed the 300 cavalrymen, who then turned around and attacked back, repeating this process over and over again.

Even though he had already witnessed Lu Cheng's ferocity, Zhou Cang was secretly shocked, and his admiration for him grew even stronger. He looked at Lu Cheng's figure as if he were worshipping a god.

"Kill!" With Lu Cheng's angry shout, the sound shook the whole area. The surrounding cavalry were all frightened and began to flee in the opposite direction.

In just less than a quarter of an hour, Lu Cheng had killed dozens of people, all of whom had their bodies torn to pieces. How could the enemy not be afraid?

Zhou Cang, who had been paying close attention to the situation on the battlefield, finally waved his hand and gave an order, and rushed down with the thirty or forty scouts.

The enemy has been completely frightened and has no will to fight anymore. It's time to reap the fruits of victory.

Soon, Lu Cheng was responsible for chasing and killing the scattered enemies, Zhou Cang was responsible for finishing off the enemies from behind, and the other scouts were responsible for gathering the scattered war horses. Some infantrymen ran over to lead the horses back.

Because more soldiers were about to arrive, Lu Cheng did not chase them far. He charged and fought for a while before retreating.

After this battle, nearly a hundred Liangzhou cavalrymen were killed, more than eighty war horses were collected, and dozens of lances and armor were captured.

Many armors and spears were cut off by Lu Cheng's long sword and were damaged.

Fortunately, those spears can still be used after replacing the handles, and the broken armor can also be repaired and used.

Lu Cheng's troops are still very poor. Many Yellow Turban soldiers still use hoes, dung forks, and sharpened wooden sticks as weapons. They are lucky to be able to get a spear head.

After the battle, Lu Cheng immediately ordered people to clean up the battlefield and prepare for the next battle.

Soon, Zhou Cang came over with a spear in one hand and a piece of armor in the other. "General, look, this armor and spear belong to the cavalry commander, and they are still intact."

Lu Cheng took the iron spear and weighed it, which was about 20 to 30 kilograms. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "This spear is OK. I'll use it first. As for the armor, I'll leave it for you to wear."

"Thank you General!"

For a military general, a good piece of armor is equivalent to a second life, and its importance is self-evident.

However, Lu Cheng could not use the armor for the time being. On the one hand, he was confident in his own martial arts ability. On the other hand, his horse would not allow him to do so.

Lu Cheng's physique is far superior to that of ordinary people, and the density of his muscles and bones is also higher than that of ordinary people. He is nearly 1.9 meters tall and weighs 200 kilograms. In addition to the weapons, bows and arrows he carries with him, it is also a heavy burden for ordinary war horses.

If dozens of kilograms of armor were added, the warhorse would probably become exhausted before running very far.

Less than half an hour after the battle ended, a group of soldiers appeared on the horizon. They looked like they were about 2,200 strong.

As the distance between the two sides narrowed, Lu Cheng could also see clearly the flags of the people coming from the opposite side. In front of him was a large flag with the word "Liu" on it, and on the left and right there was another large flag with the words "Guan" and "Zhang" on them respectively.

Obviously, this should be the troops of the three brothers Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Then, Zhou Cang beside Lu Cheng also stepped forward and said, "General, the one coming over here should be Liu Bei from Zhuo County. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei under his command are both powerful generals who can defeat ten thousand enemies. When I followed General Ren Gong before, I fought against them and almost died in the chaos."

Lu Cheng nodded: "I will go meet these three brothers later, you just need to control the troops."

"Yes, General."

In terms of military strength, Lu Cheng had more than 2,000 men under his command, which was not much different from the enemy. However, among these men, there were some old, weak, women and children, and the rest of the Yellow Turban Army had only undergone a simple reorganization and had not been properly trained, so their combat effectiveness was not very good.

Although the troops of the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang on the opposite side were also poorly equipped, they seemed to have some military appearance and were stronger than Lu Cheng's side.

If the two sides engage in war, there will inevitably be heavy casualties.

Just as the two sides were getting closer, Lu Cheng rode forward and said loudly, "Is it Liu Bei Liu Xuande from Zhuo County who is coming over here? Please come out and answer me."

Liu Bei was about to walk out of the army when he heard this, but Guan Yu grabbed him and said, "Brother, be careful. From what we have heard along the way, Lu Cheng on the other side is also a brave and skilled fighter. Don't be careless. It's better for the three of us to go out together."

Liu Bei nodded upon hearing this: "Okay."

Zhang Fei was a little unconvinced: "Why should I be afraid of him? Wait for me to take his head!"

After saying this, Zhang Fei rushed out directly: "Yanren Zhang Yide is here! The thief will die!"

Seeing Zhang Fei rushing towards him, Lu Cheng also spurred his horse forward. When the two horses passed each other, there was a "clang" sound, and the weapons in their hands collided.

Zhang Fei only felt a huge force coming from the weapon in his hand. His palms shook and the Zhangba Snake Spear almost slipped out of his hand. His whole body leaned back and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart: "This guy has great strength."

Lu Cheng rushed out seven or eight steps, stopped his horse, and was a little surprised. Judging from the intensity of the fight between the two just now, Zhang Fei's physique should be between 22 and 23 points, which has obviously exceeded the limit of the human body.

Of course, this amount of power did not pose any threat to Lu Cheng, but Lu Cheng did not want to kill Zhang Fei for the time being, so he retained some of his strength.

Otherwise, with Lu Cheng's strength and the fighting skills accumulated over thousands of years, he could definitely kill him in one move.

However, Zhang Fei has probably not reached the peak of his life at this time, and he may continue to grow in the future.

Although Zhang Fei suffered a loss, he was not afraid at all. He shouted loudly, swung the Zhangba Snake Spear again, and rushed towards Lu Cheng.

Guan Yu on the opposite side also saw that Zhang Fei had just fallen into a disadvantage, and hurriedly rode out to support Zhang Fei: "Third brother, I'm here to help you!"
