Chapter 62 Capturing Lü Bu Alive
Chapter 62 Capturing Lü Bu Alive
"clang--"
A loud metallic clang rang out as the halberd and the spear clashed together.
Sparks fly!
"Has your lord's neck been washed clean?" Lu Bu smirked.
"Stop your arrogance!"
Zhang Fei roared and thrust his eighteen-foot spear forward with all his might.
Using immense force, he shook off the halberd and simultaneously aimed it at Lü Bu's abdomen.
The two fought fiercely, neither able to gain the upper hand for a time!
At the same time.
Guan Yu also encountered Gao Shun, and both of them ignored the shouts of battle around them.
His eyes were filled with fighting spirit, as if he could only see the enemy!
After a brief silence, neither of them exchanged a word and spurred their warhorses toward each other.
Every swing of the Green Dragon Crescent Blade sent shivers down Gao Shun's spine, making his hands go numb.
After just over ten rounds, he was already at a disadvantage!
Compared to Guan Yu at full strength, they simply couldn't withstand his attack!
The two generals were locked in a fierce battle, but they were unable to change the current situation.

If it were any other army, they would probably have surrendered by now.
Even when surrounded, none of the Qingzhou troops, who had received special training from Li Zhao, retreated!
They stared intently at the growing number of enemies, prepared to die.
Gao Shun fought and retreated, and Zhang Fei did the same!
Not long after.
They gathered in the very center of the camp, not far apart, and could see the side that was at a disadvantage.
"Clang clang clang!"
Lu Bu exerted his strength without warning, temporarily forcing Zhang Fei to retreat.
He brandished his halberd and roared, "Listen up, everyone..."
"You have no chance now. Lay down your weapons and surrender, and I, Lü Bu, guarantee that no one will be harmed!"
"What Li Zhao gives you, I can give you double! And the riches and honors he can't provide, I guarantee I can satisfy your every need!"
"If you don't know what's good for you, you'll only face death!"
The tactic of coercion and enticement is not new, but it is often very effective in such situations.
Lu Bu used this method more than once, and it attracted many people!
What he never expected was that after hearing those words...
There was no joy in the eyes of those around him, nor any relief at surviving a disaster.
It was not a mockery, but an undisguised...laughter!
Just as he said, it's not only unattractive, it's the biggest joke!
"You traitor! What my master gave me is beyond your wildest imagination!"
"Someone like you probably couldn't understand what he could offer!"
"Even if I die today, I will drag you down with me!" Zhang Fei gripped his eighteen-foot spear and charged forward once more!
"You don't know what's good for you, you're asking for death!" Lu Bu didn't hold back either and charged forward.
But at that moment, a series of low growls suddenly came from outside the pitch-black camp.
"roar--"
"roar--"
The unified and murderous voices almost instantly shattered the morale of the Bingzhou army.
The army that appears at this time could never be their people!
Meanwhile, the morale of the Qingzhou army soared, and the situation was instantly reversed!
at this time.
Taishi Ci, outside the main camp, led the reinforcements, his eyes filled with excitement.
Because Li Zhao hadn't appeased them before, everyone was holding their breath.
and so.
After receiving the mission, they rushed here as quickly as possible.
"Our lord was right after all. This Lü Bu is not to be underestimated; he has actually meticulously planned such a grand scheme!"
"It's a pity he has to stay here!"
Taishi Ci's lips curled into a cold smile, but he did not make a move immediately.
Instead, the army spreads out in this way, using low growls to undermine the enemy's morale.
Lu Bu's army had not received this kind of training.
Fortunately, the men in the Trapped Camp were alright. Once they realized there was no hope, they immediately laid down their weapons and surrendered in order to save their lives.
With them taking the lead, morale plummeted, and no one wanted to resist anymore!
In less than half an hour, the Bingzhou army, which had just held an absolute advantage, was now kneeling on the ground in surrender.
Only Lü Bu, Gao Shun, and a small number of the Trapped Camp were surrounded in the very center.
When Taishi Ci led his men in, the situation was already decided!
"Our lord said not to harm him for now!" Taishi Ci approached and whispered to Guan Yu.
"Thank you for your trouble!" Guan Yu nodded slightly, as if to express his gratitude for his appearance.
Zhang Fei nodded as well, but his gaze remained fixed on Lü Bu.
He was very dissatisfied with their exchange just now!
I always want to find another opportunity to give it my all and have another go!
"My lord has spoken!" Taishi Ci rode up to the front.
As he was speaking, someone brought in a bag of rice and cut it open in front of everyone.
The white rice, flowing like a waterfall on the ground, creates a strong visual impact.
Before they left, Li Zhao specifically instructed that, given Lü Bu's personality, he would absolutely not distribute the grain they sent out to any ordinary soldier.
therefore.
With just one bag of fine rice, Lu Bu's control over the army could be completely shattered!
From those shocked gazes, Taishi Ci knew that Li Zhao was right again!
"Anyone who is willing to come, even the most ordinary soldier, can eat this every day."
"Previously, my lord gave each of you a gift of rice like this. Although the quantity was small, I believe you have all enjoyed it!"
"I won't waste any more words. Figure out your own path!"
In an instant.
The Bingzhou army was in an uproar!
"What? When did they send gifts? I've never seen food like this before!"
"So the rumors were true! That prime minister really did send over some extremely rare and exquisite grains, but we are not qualified to enjoy them!"
"How outrageous! They won't even give us a single bite?"
"Why should we risk our lives for him when he treats us like this!"
"..."
More and more people began to curse, and cold sweat kept seeping from Lü Bu's forehead.
He never expected that the other party would have prepared this move!
He had intended to explain, but most of the people were already on the ground, showing their surrender through their actions.
Gao Shun, who was not far from him, showed a struggle for the first time in his expression.
He wasn't sure if Li Zhao could really do what he said he could.
But one thing is certain: Lü Bu is capable of doing such a thing!
Looking at those gleaming broadswords, he knew that breaking through today was impossible.
Rather than let these brothers around me, who are seriously injured but still gritting their teeth and persevering, die in vain.
Instead, let's choose a path for them that will allow them to survive!
"Clatter—"
The weapon in Gao Shun's hand fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"I... surrender!"
After a while.
Only Lü Bu remained on horseback, but he was eventually brought down by Zhang Fei's eighteen-foot spear...
