Just as Cao Cao was discussing with the ministers at the court meeting, Lu Bu's army had already attacked Luoyang with lightning speed.

On the day when Lu's county fell, several Viking long ships continued to walk east along the Luoshui under the night. The defenders of Luoyang had no time to receive news of Lu Bu's invasion, and because Luoyang was far away from the border of the area controlled by Lu Bu, the defenders of Luoyang were not highly alert and prepared for combat.

The long boat was smooth sailing. After only four hours, in the vast night, the soldiers on the boat had already seen Luoyang. The Cao army at the top of the city did not find these uninvited guests in the river. When these long boats were still far from the city wall, they quietly drilled into the reed marsh on the side of the river bank. The sailors, including the mainland soldiers, were dressed down and headed towards Luoyang City. When they arrived at the foot of Luoyang City, it was almost dawn.

Not long after, the sun rose slowly. After sleeping overnight, the energetic gate guards came to change their guards, and then slowly opened the city gate. The civilians who had been waiting near the city gate, were eager to leave the city and enter the city, and the order of going left and right to enter the city rushed towards the city gate from two directions.

At this moment, neither the civilians nor the soldiers carved out, and a large number of soldiers appeared from the end of the official road in the distance. Luoyang City is the central place, and it is very common for Cao Wei to mobilize troops from east, west, south and north to pass through this city, so the behavior of civilians and soldiers is normal.

But when these soldiers were about to approach the city gate, a captain Cao Jun who was standing on the top of the city noticed something was wrong. He thought carefully and found that these soldiers did not use flags, and their clothes were significantly different from those of Cao Jun. When he was about to shout for alert and close the city gate, the team of soldiers had already begun to run towards the city gate.

"There is an enemy! Close the city gate quickly, it is the enemy's attack!" The lieutenant was already shouting. But it was too late. The nearly a thousand Han soldiers had already rushed to the city of Luoyang, only ten battles away from the city gate. Dozens of arrows rushed towards the city. The gatekeeper who shouted loudly was hit by an arrow before he could issue the order, and two arrows hit the chest and died. When the Cao army soldiers beside him saw it, they were stunned for a few seconds before they reacted, one after another.

The soldiers from the Han army that came were composed of long-ship sailors, Dian Wei and his subordinates, and five hundred black armored iron guards. They can be said to be the elite among the elites of Lu Bu's Han army. The people entering and leaving Luoyang City had long dispersed. The soldiers next to the city gate were trying hard to cover the two gates. Dozens of flying axes were flying in a whirlpooling manner, some chopped on the door panel, some flew into the half-closed city gate hole, hitting the bodies of some soldiers, and some chopped on the palms of the soldiers who closed the door. The soldiers who were hit screamed and shrank their hands back.

Immediately afterwards, Dian Wei led his subordinates to the city gate first. Dian Wei Kuangwu's two big axes in his hand instantly killed five or six Cao soldiers around him. His subordinates also slashed and killed the city, and the Xuan Armored Iron Guards and the Longboat Sailors behind him followed them into the city gate one after another.

The Cao army defenders on the top of the city had already begun to whimper and call the police. The soldiers who fled back from the city had already received reports from the soldiers who had fled back in the desert and began to assemble the army. Now the Luoyang Order is a man of the beloved. After hearing the propaganda from the Order, he knew that something was wrong, so he jumped on his horse and rushed towards the barracks without saying a word.

When Man Chong arrived at the military camp, the Cao army soldiers had already assembled under the command of the school officials. Man Chong hurried to the west gate of the attacked city gate with these about 3,000 infantry and cavalry.

At the west gate of Luoyang City, Cao's army on the city wall panicked for a moment and began to calm down. Three or four hundred soldiers were ordered by the generals and gathered and began to retaliate against the city. The Han army, who were pouring in the city, immediately divided a hundred black armored iron guards and met them.

Two streams of people walking towards each other finally gathered together. The centurion of the black-armored Iron Guard rushed to the front and waved the horizontal sword hard. Where the sword light flashed, two heads immediately flew into the air. The sound of swords and guns colliding began to sound from less to more, from weak to stronger.

Two spears stabbed the centurion's left and right ribs. He calmly blocked a spear with a shield block, and waved the horizontal knife in his right hand down and cut off the spearhead of the spear on the right. The bare spear rod stabbed his black and shiny iron armor without any effect. His quick approached three steps, turned the horizontal knife and stabbed straight forward, pierced the armor of the broken spear Cao soldier, and cut open his belly. The Cao soldier fell down in pain.

The Cao army spearman, who was blocked by the shield, returned the shot and stabbed the spear into the gap in the left rear of the centurion again, but was slashed by another black armored iron guard and collapsed on the ground. A Cao army holding a short spear tried to kick a close iron guard away with his feet before assassinating it. However, the opponent cut off the entire part below his knee with a knife, and threw it to the ground with a thud, and then kicked the head out of the other party, and died of bleeding from seven orifices.

Three or four hundred Cao's infantry were killed by the hundred iron guards in a very short time, and many of them didn't even have time to escape. The streets near the city gate were almost all Cao's soldiers, and the casualties of the iron guards could only be calculated in single digits. In this kind of battle, the Cao army could not support them anymore and immediately collapsed and scattered. However, the hundred iron guards had not planned to let them go so easily. They took off the bows and arrows behind them, bent their bows and shot them, and shot dozens of escaped Cao soldiers, and then they stopped and stopped chasing them. They surrounded the city gate in an arch on one side of the city gate.

While these iron guards were fighting with the Cao army rushing down the city wall, the rest of Lu Bu's Han army still rushed towards the direction of the military camp and government office in Luoyang City, and naturally collided head-on with the three thousand Luoyang defenders led by Man Chong.

Cheng Lian, who was leading the Han army, shouted loudly and called out a "kill" and the generals rushed towards Cao's army. Man Chong had no time to set up a formation and directly rushed to fight. The guards first released waves of arrows more than 100 meters away, shooting Man Chong's formation.

The Cao army, who was born in the crowd, also began to shoot back, and soldiers on both sides were constantly caught in arrows and fell to the ground. When the two armies were more than fifty meters apart, the sailors of the long boat threw out a handful of rotating flying axes and smashed them into the Cao army's formation. Immediately afterwards, Dian Wei led his two hundred subordinates as vanguards and rushed into the Cao army's formation and launched a fierce battle. In the dense crowd, Dian Wei's two axes danced like wheels, and the Cao army soldiers approaching him were either dead or injured. Dian Wei's subordinates also entered the battle with high morale encouragement by Dian Wei's brave rushing.
