Chapter 186 Burial of the Dead

Looking at Lu Bu again, he suddenly realized that he was suddenly surrounded by a powerful enemy. The powerful sword slashed straight towards his neck, and a trace of sweat couldn't help but flow down Lu Bu's forehead. He didn't think about anything in his blank mind. The return halberd, which was a trick of a devil, was instinctively blocking the sword.

"Okay." Dian Wei suddenly shouted, which scared He Bai who was dazed beside him. He Bai rolled his eyes and asked dissatisfiedly: "What are you saying about big brother?"

Dian Wei slammed the high and said, "The red-faced man is good at raising murderous intent. At the moment of his sword, he can integrate the murderous aura he brews into the knife, making this knife extremely powerful. Ordinary people will definitely feel irresistible when they are suddenly attacked by this knife. No matter what moves they use, they will be confused. Only without thinking or instinct can they block this knife."

With a "clang" sound, the red rabbit horse under Lu Bu's crotch screamed and took two steps back. The knife shocked Lu Bu's arms numb, but finally sealed the knife. But he didn't expect that after the Qinglong Yanyue Sword was blocked, it drew a very strange arc in the air, and slashed again with a stronger force. However, this time, it was obviously more powerful and insufficient changes.

Lu Bu was furious and raised his halberd to put it on the shelf. With a "clang" sound, the Red Rabbit Horse stepped back three steps again. The red-faced man took the opportunity and slashed the third sword again. However, Lu Bu was already ready. His energy sinks into the Dantian, and the Tianfang Painted Ridge attacks with attacks. With a "dding", after the sword and halberd collided, they all interlaced strangely. The red-faced man's horse retreated three steps, but Lu Bu did not move at all.

After the red-faced man's three swords, when his qi was weak, Lu Bu's eyes shot out, and he urged the war horse to thrust his halberd and stabbed the red-faced man's chest. The red-faced man was weak in energy and could not respond in time, and was about to be assassinated by a halberd. Lu Bu pressed and beaten by Guan Yu, and finally got his sword back. Zhang Fei, who was angry, was shocked and hurriedly stepped out his spear to put Guan Yu's chest, blocking the killing halberd for Guan Yu.

Guan Yu pulled his horse back and was forced to retreat aside. The main force of the battle became Lu Bu and Zhang Fei again. The two men's halberds came with their spears, and the speed was extremely fast, and they quickly fought for more than ten rounds. Guan Yu finally came back and forth and officially joined the battlefield of the two. The three horses were like the word T. Although Lu Bu felt it was difficult, he still supported it.

When Dian Wei nodded, he shook his head and said, "The sword technique of the red-faced man is very powerful, not inferior to me. However, the three swords are very difficult to stop. As long as it is blocked, you can kill him when his energy is weak. I don't know why the red-faced man came up with such a sword technique. Isn't this the sword technique that will kill me if you die?"

He Bai smiled and said, "Although it is a sword technique that fights life, how many people in the world can stop it? After three swords, they have already killed the generals. Others don't know what he is, and they are frightened by his majesty. He can calmly return his anger and behead him and return. By the way, what will happen if the Red Rabbit is allowed to ride on him?"

Dian Wei was stunned and murmured: "The first sword is already unparalleled, and there are very few people in the world who can block it. If the three swords fail... they can also use the power of the Red Rabbit to temporarily retreat and accumulate momentum. How many people in the world can block his sword skills? He... will be invincible in the world!"

He Bai laughed and said, "There is no truly invincible person in the world? I think he is tall and between his elder brother and Lu Bu, but his agility is far less than that of Lu Bu and his elder brother, and he seems quite heavy. Although the offensive is strong, his defensive is weak. Especially for long-range weapons such as bows, arrows, and halberds, it is impossible to avoid."

Dian Wei was stunned. After carefully examining Guan Yu's offensive, he laughed and said, "It seems that brothers are making progress in martial arts, and even the martial arts flaws of such powerful generals can be seen at a glance."

He Bai smiled without saying a word, so naturally he could not tell Dian Wei that this was proven through history. Guan Yu's defensive ability, especially his ability to defend arrows, was definitely very poor among the powerful generals of the Three Kingdoms. And it was not because he was old and inflexible. Even when he was in his prime, a second-rate general could still shoot arrows and injure him.

While He Bai and Dian Wei were chatting, Liu Bei ran down from the hill with his double sword in his hand and joined the battlefield of fighting Lu Bu. He Bai was stunned and knew that he was going to pick up the head, but he underestimated the ability of Chitu too much.

Sure enough, the three of them fought around Lu Bu for more than ten rounds, and Lu Bu could not hold it back. When Guan Yu was about to use the three swords again, Lu Bu fainted a halberd on Liu Bei's face. Just as Zhang Fei turned his spear to protect Liu Bei, Lu Bu slapped the Red Rabbit, dragged the Painted Rabbit backwards, and ran out fifty steps away in an instant. When the three of them were about to chase him, Chi Bu had already taken Lu Bu to the army.

He Bai raised his hand and waved his hand. Zhang Liao led three thousand elite cavalry to gallop and rushed towards Lu Bu and Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry. The eight princes' soldiers shouted loudly and rushed down the hills and rushed into the field. Lu Bu fought one by one and suffered a defeat. In addition, there were few soldiers, so he dared not fight. He led the three thousand wolf cavalry to look at the direction of Hulao Pass and defeated.

In front of the coalition, there were Liu, Guan and Zhang charges, and then Zhang Liao's three thousand elite cavalry chased and killed them, and then there were 100,000 troops behind them. Bingzhou wolf cavalry ran to the pig and rushed all the way. 30 miles away, and countless people fell off their horses and died. At least half of the three thousand horses were lost and had just arrived at the gate.

Dong Zhuo did not know that Lu Bu was defeated and could not help him. Even the Bingzhou Army outside the pass was flooded by the coalition forces. Generals such as Gao Shun could not resist the infantry, so they had to abandon the camp and Lu Bu and retreat to the Hulao Pass. Finally, with the support of the Xiliang Army's bow and arrows on the city, most of them fled back to Guanzhong.

The Bingzhou army, which had originally followed Lu Bu and defected to Dong Zhuo, had less than 3,000 soldiers after being defeated by the Yang people and Hulao Pass. After hearing this, Lu Bu was very sad. When Dong Zhuo saw that Lu Bu was defeated twice in a row, he couldn't help but feel a little contempt.

The coalition army won a great victory and returned to the camp. Although they only killed more than 3,000 heads, after repeated defeats, they finally won a small victory, which made the morale fall to the extreme and then rose a lot. The eight princes of the eight routes invited Liu, Guan and Zhang to go back to the village to have a banquet to congratulate this merit.

As for Mu Shun, who started today's battle, and Dian Wei, who had only fought three times, were left behind by everyone. He Bai could only be speechless about the little wealth and peace of the princes and the demolition of bridges across the river. People all like to be sad about the protagonist's love, hate, and hatred, but He Bai's views are different. He is sad and sad when facing the supporting role and passerby who have made silent efforts but never got good results.

During the celebration banquet of the princes, He Bai led his soldiers alone to serve as the righteous man Mu Shun, and the soldiers of various soldiers who died in battle, including Lu Bu's Bingzhou soldiers, were still carried out in a unique, rigorous and solemn way that He Bai formulated in the North Navy. (Refer to later martyrs)

Outside the village, there were fires all around. He Bai, Dian Wei, Zhang Liao, Song Guo, Du Lei and Xun Ye personally carried the coffin for Mu Shun. Three thousand cavalrymen carried the straw mat and corpses of thousands of dead soldiers on horseback, and looked at the hill beside the camp step by step.

Countless coalition soldiers watched the actions of He Bai and others through the village. There were Wang Kuang's general Han Hao, Tao Qian's general Cao Bao, Gongsun Zan's general Wang Men, Zhang Yang's general Mu Gu, Qiao Mao, Yuan Yi, Bao Xin, and Kong Rong's general were ordered to come and invite He Bai to the banquet. When they saw this scene in the village, they were stunned. They stood in front of the village and watched He Bai's army's actions silently.

He Bai and others carried Mu Shun's coffin to the top of the hill, where there had been a tomb. Six people placed the coffin in the tomb at the same time, and after He Bai prayed, they shoveled down to bury it. Each person shoveled the loess one by one, expressing the respect of the generals under He Bai's command to the righteous man Mu Shun. Three thousand cavalrymen also buried the soldiers who died today around Mu Shun's tomb, like guards guarding Mu Shun.

He Bai sat in front of the tomb and engraved a stele with wooden boards for Mu Shun, and wrote: "The governor of Bingzhou of Han Dynasty, held the title of Jinwu Ding Gong, and the tomb of Mu Shun, a righteous man under his command." Behind it, Mu Shun's brief deeds and the reason for his death. Then he inserted the wooden board into the loess, and everything was finally completed.

He Bai pointed to Mu Shun's tomb and said, "When the world is peaceful in the future, I will personally come to build monuments for Mu Shun and the soldiers who died today. Just like the battles in other places before, the deceased must not be forgotten by the world."

He pointed to the hills and the two distinct tombs were clearly divided and said, "The soldiers of Bingzhou Army are enemies of our army because they are not human. But they are all good men of the Han family, and they have also shed blood and tears for the Han Dynasty, so they cannot let them corpse in the wilderness. The two armies were hostile during their lifetime, but they had no grudges after their death. Some were just a body given by their parents."

All the generals nodded and said that after He Bai's reform in Yingchuan, he made a regulation that any war of death in a hundred people should be erected to remember them. For more than 500 people, temples should be built to worship. For less than 100 people, as long as there are more than 10 people, the chief officials of Qu must be ordered to record the documents into a book, as the military history of each town, Qu, and the new soldiers who will be in the future will be listened to and remembered.

Once this regulation was issued, the loyalty and combat power of the entire army increased by 20%. At this time, the Northern Navy had no single combat power, but its cohesion was terrible. In the era of cold weapons, 30% of casualties were considered elite soldiers, while the Northern Navy could almost support a casualty rate of 80%. However, He Bai did not want to use examples to prove this matter.

He Bai finally led his troops back to the camp. Han Hao and others in front of the village took a step forward and said with a forced smile: "This, General Zhaode, my lord and the princes are afraid that they are waiting in a hurry. Why should I go to the banquet?"

He Bai shook his head and said, "You go first, I'll go and see the injured soldiers today."

The princes and generals couldn't help but feel respectful. If Mu Shun and the soldiers were buried with fame or accused of winning people's hearts, then what's the point of burying the hostile Dong Zhuo bandits?

Including the banquet for abandoning allies and princes at this time, and we must first visit the injured soldiers, He Bai really has the style of a kind and gentleman in ancient times. Among the dozens of princes, He Bai is probably the only one.
