Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 382 The Death of Lu Chang

  The west wind is blowing, the soldiers are galloping, Luliang is gloomy, and the mountains and rivers are turbulent.

  Xiangling County is a city built on a flat land between Fenshui and Luliang Mountain. It is a city with relatively ideal terrain on the entire loess plain.

  Lvliang Mountains are the transitional mountains between the Loess Plateau and the Jizhou Plain, and together with the Taihang Mountains, they become a natural barrier between Jizhou and Bingzhou.

Because of the scouring of water veins for tens of millions of years, in fact, Luliang Mountain, like Taihang Mountain, is divided into multiple sections. The northern section of Luliang Mountain is divided into two parallel rows from east to west. Guancen Mountain, in the middle of the Jingle Basin, is the watershed between the Sanggan River and the Fen River System.

   Pinching Xiangling blocked the path of the Baibo army going south, and at the same time blocked the path of the Baibo army to the Taiyuan area through the Lvliang Mountain Trail, thus limiting the scope of activities of the entire Baibo army.

  Lu Chang is marching at full speed to Xiangling County with a team of people.

  A personal guard reminded Lu Changdao: "Lu Juncheng, do you want to send some scouts out? Our speed is too fast..."

  The personal guard did not continue. After all, on this kind of terrain, there is a river below one side and mountains on the other side. If one is ambushed by someone, it will be a very serious consequence.

  Lu Chang was panting, and every breath was a difficult thing for him. Originally, he was relatively fat, and he had to run a long distance. In order to hurry, he didn't even take a carriage. Now, the long-term friction caused the pain between his thighs to die, and not only that, but his physical strength was also very large. , I felt like my entire chest was about to burn.

"...It's okay! It's only ten miles away!" Lu Chang thought about it and said, "If the Yellow Turbans have already broken through Xiangling, we will at least meet people fleeing on the way. Since we haven't seen them now, it means that Xiangling The mausoleum should still be in our hands. Speed ​​up and try to get to Xiangling before sunset!"

   Unless there are yellow scarf thieves crossing Fenshui and making a detour, but the possibility of this situation is basically extremely small...

   "Wei!" The guard also heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and agreed loudly, and then steered his horse to the front of the team, shouting, boosting morale, and keeping the team moving at a fast speed.

   It is only ten miles away from Xiangling, which is more than half an hour. Although it is spring and the sun is not too long, but according to the current speed, it should not be dark when we arrive at Xiangling.

Lu Chang and his group of soldiers were walking along the official road, when they suddenly saw a few big rocks falling from the top of the mountain at some point in the middle of the road, laying in the middle of the road, blocking the direction to Xiangling. At most, they can barely climb over the stones one by one.

   "What's the matter?!" Lu Chang felt that the whole team slowed down, and rode his horse from the middle of the team to the front.

   "Reporting to the Prime Minister, falling rocks have blocked the way..."

   "Pry it open!" Lu Chang ordered.

  Landslides are inevitable. After all, the Han Dynasty did not do any special projects to seal the mountain, so it does happen occasionally.

   But Lu Chang suddenly felt very uneasy at this moment, and couldn't help but sit on the horseback and look left and right.

   Logically speaking, this place is not far from Xiangling. If the Baibo army wants to set up an ambush, there are many areas on the road that are actually better ambush points, but there were no people in those places before.

And if it is said that the Baibo army set up an ambush here, it is too unreasonable. We have neither seen any fleeing people nor encountered soldiers from Xiangling along the way. Ling is here...

  However, these stones are too big, and there are many traces of soil on them. They don't seem to have fallen freely from the mountain under the wind and rain, but they seem to have been deliberately pried out of the soil...

   All kinds of signs are contradictory, and it is difficult for Lu Chang to judge for a while.

  The Fen River gurgles on one side, but the Luliang Mountains are quiet. Lu Chang’s soldiers are struggling to pry the stones with wooden sticks and other tools...

  Lu Chang suddenly thought of some fragments in the military book, and shouted loudly: "The sword and shield hand raises the shield to the left! The crossbowman prepares!"

  The sudden order made the soldiers flustered, but after long-term training, they still began to prepare to follow Lu Chang's order.

  Shanlan whimpered, and suddenly there was a little screaming sound, and some black shadows appeared in front of him in an instant from the mountain ridge.

  The sound of puffing suddenly sounded, and blood flowers bloomed in Lu Chang's team immediately, and screams one after another. The sword and shield hand had just turned and hadn't formed a shield wall, but was shot down by arrows from the mountain...

   "Raise the shield! Raise the shield! Suppress it with the archers!" Lu Chang hurriedly dismounted, hid behind the horse, and ordered loudly.

   Some figures appeared on the mountain ridge at some point, hiding behind trees and bushes, condescendingly shooting arrows here. The sparse counterattacks of Lu Chang's archers were either blocked by trees or had insufficient range, basically failing to achieve any effect.

   "The back team has changed to the front team, withdraw!" Lu often had a bad momentum, and he didn't care to forcefully pry open the boulder, but ordered to evacuate the area covered by the arrow rain...

  But before they walked a hundred meters, they bumped into the enemy army who came to intercept them, and the whole team was unable to move.

   "Kill! Kill! The spearman, step forward, charge forward! Charge forward!" Lu Chang commanded, in this situation, he must quickly fight his way out. The longer he stays here, the more dangerous he will be.

It's a pity that the flustered Lu Chang's rear team was not prepared to resist the attack from the rear. It is not easy to prepare an attack formation in a short time. The soldiers pushed each other, some moved forward, and some retreated , the mess became a pot of porridge...

"kill!"

The enemy army who came to intercept them did not intend to let go easily. Two layers of swords and shields, plus one layer of pikemen, and archers thrown behind, blocked the official road tightly and approached step by step. The preface is as dense as a forest.

  Looking at the enemy troops approaching in an orderly manner, Lu Chang suddenly burst into anger from his chest and abdomen: "This is definitely not a Yellow Turban thief! Not a Yellow Turban thief!"

   It is not impossible to make the yellow turban thieves fight crazily, but it is extremely difficult to make the yellow turban thieves form such an orderly battle formation, which can only be done by well-trained soldiers!

Under the double blow from the front and the side, Lu Chang's team was quickly slaughtered in sevens and eights, leaving only a few personal guards, holding large shields, to protect Lu Chang in groups, but it was already There is no way to recover, and it is only a matter of time before the entire army is wiped out...

  Lu Chang's angry voice came out: "Traitor! National traitor! You are all national traitors, and you will die without a place to bury you!"

  A black-robed general among the enemy army smiled contemptuously, then waved his hand.

  The sword and shield soldiers approaching step by step stopped at a distance of about 30 steps from Lu Chang's personal guards, and a voice came from behind the sword and shield soldiers: "Drop down to avoid death!"

Under the cover of his personal guards, Lu Chang secretly took off the seal ribbon that was originally hanging around his waist, and then said with a sad smile: "Fan Yang Lu family has never had a subservient generation! Death is death, why bother talking! Kill! "

  The few remaining personal guards scattered, and together with Lu Chang launched a desperate attack!

  Unfortunately, before rushing out a few steps, they were shot down by bows and arrows one after another. Lu Chang was also hit by several arrows and fell to the ground...

  A soldier who looked like a team leader walked up to Lu Chang's corpse, bent down and groped, "No...no seal! He doesn't have a seal!"

   "What?" The black-robed general separated the soldiers and walked out, frowning and looking at Lu Chang's corpse facing up to the sky. On his belt, the place where the seal ribbon should have been hung was indeed empty, nothing...

   "Find it! Find it for me!" the black-robed general roared angrily.

  A soldier suddenly said: "Just now... just now I seem to see something...flying into the river..."

   "What?!" The black-robed general rushed to the side of the road. Under the cliff of the official road, the Fen River was surging, and there was no trace of Yinshou...

   Entering June, it's getting hotter...

   If the update was interrupted that day, the author must have suffered from heat stroke on the construction site and was taken to the hospital for emergency treatment...

   Remnant...
