"Lord Du Du Du, what should we do?" Hou Cheng ran over and asked anxiously. He pointed in the direction of the gathering men in the pitch black night sky and said softly: "Lord Du Du Du, according to exorcism's reports, Sun Jian's army almost instantly came out, and they wish to fight to the death with West Cold Army."

Song Xian and Wei Xu also looked at Lv Bu, waiting for his reply.

Lv Bu's entire army had come. If he were to withdraw from the battlefield now, it would be equivalent to opening the doors of the West Cold Army Camp for Sun Jian, and Sun Jian's army would rush straight to the middle camp of Hu Zhen.

"If we attack Sun Jian's army head on, even if we can't break through Sun Jian's grand formation, Sun Jian's army won't be able to enter the West Cold Army Camp. If we were to break through Sun Jian Great Formation, it would be a great contribution. " Lv Bu thought for a while, then said seriously.

"Lord Du Du Du, the sky is so dark, why is the cavalry attacking like He Jin?" When Song Xian, Hou Cheng, and Wei Xu heard this, they all shouted in disagreement, especially Wei Xu, and he actually shouted loudly, "Lord Du Du Du, these ten thousand Zhanzhou cavalry, you must know who you are!"

"This …" Lv Bu purposely hesitated, revealing a troubled expression. In fact, he had already wanted to run away in his heart, he wouldn't care about Hu Zhen's life and death. However, he didn't want to be accused of running away before the battle, so he could only look at Song Xian, Hou Cheng, Wei Xu and the other generals with pretense.

At this time, the sounds of Sun Jian's army fighting could already be heard outside of the camp. Sun Jian's soldiers were destroying the fences of the camp. Song Xian knew that he could no longer hesitate, he suddenly looked at Hou Cheng and Wei Xu, then said to Lv Bu's personal guards: You few protect the Lord Du Du Du, quickly retreat, we will protect the rear.

Surrounded by the janissaries, Lv Bu seemed to be extremely unwilling to get on his horse, as he, Hou Cheng, and Wei Xu immediately ran towards his own team. Not long later, more than ten thousand riders followed Lv Bu and fled northwards, quickly disappearing into the night.

Hu Zhen was gathering the West Cold Army in his middle camp, preparing to reinforce the Lv Bu Cavalry that was guarding the Front Camp. He had to admit that the West Cold Army was not difficult to deal with and had to be dealt with appropriately. If he could rely on the protection of the camp, Sun Jian might not be able to take any advantage of him.

"Report …" A few exorcism s ran over quickly, and said while gasping for breath: "Lieutenant General, the cavalry army that was guarding Front Camp,, fled without fighting. The former Front Camp gave her hands to Sun Jian. Now, Sun Jian's army has entered the main camp and is rushing towards the middle camp.

Before Hu Zhen could gather his troops, he heard the sounds of more than ten thousand cavalrymen from exorcism reporting to him. They abandoned their battalions and gave their weapons to Sun Jian, causing him to almost pass out from anger, "Damned Lv Bu, he actually fled right before the battle, this old man will definitely report this to the Prime Minister and kill your nine generations!"

"Lieutenant General, it's useless to scold Lv Bu now." Hu Zhen's assistant, Sima Wang Yu also felt that the situation was not good and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Once Lv Bu escapes, the great entrance of the Front Camp opens, Sun Jian's army will rush in, the West Cold's army will be unable to protect itself anymore. The general should have made his decision earlier on, so where should the army go? "

Although Hu Zhen wasn't some kind of general, he was still someone who had experienced a lot in the battlefield, so he naturally understood the current situation. There were no barriers in front of the gathering of his own soldiers. If he were to be attacked by Sun Jian's army right now, he would definitely be defeated on the spot.

"Order the army to retreat immediately and head towards the formation of Grand Dominance City." Hu Zhen did not dare delay any longer, immediately jumping onto his horse, taking the spear handed over by his personal guard, he shouted to herald: "Inform the army of Hua Xiong, order him to be the last in the army."

"Retreat... "Hurry up and retreat …" Receiving Hu Zhen's orders, Wang Yu immediately turned around and shouted to the herald beside him. A dozen or so herald s ran away quickly, sending the order to retreat to the gathering West Cold Army departments. The West Cold Army generals who received the order immediately brought their troops and fled in the direction of Guang Cheng.

Hua Xiong's rear camp was about five kilometers away from Lv Bu's Front Camp, so he had sufficient time to gather his troops. In addition, his men were all soldiers of the northern troop. They did not panic after receiving the alarm, so more than ten thousand soldiers were gathered in a flash.

Just as Hua Xiong was on standby, suddenly, a exorcism came over and told him that Lv Bu, who was guarding the Front Camp, had abandoned her camp and escaped. Hua Xiong was shocked, and immediately thought of the words of the Zhang Banxian. Before the battle had even begun, his own side had already escaped.

Without waiting for Hua Xiong to come back to his senses, Hu Zhen's order had arrived again. The herald's tone was very resolute, unrestrainedly ordering Hua Xiong to quickly gather everyone to block the rear, and to gather all his power to block Sun Jian's team, to cover the retreat of Hu Zhen's army.

In other words, Hua Xiong was a loyal general who only knew how to obey Dong Zhuo's orders. Furthermore, as a member of the West Cold, his relationship with Hu Zhen was not bad, and there were no conflicts between him and Hu Zhen.

The historical Hua Xiong, after receiving Hu Zhen's orders, unhesitatingly led his subordinates to lead Hu Zhen's army to cut off their rear. In the end, they were entangled by Sun Jian's army, and after a bloody war for an entire day, more than half of the soldiers were killed and more than half of the soldiers were wounded. Hua Xiong also died on the spot, becoming the highest ranked general who died in the battle against Dong Zhuo among the eighteen dukes.

However, in this space, Hua Xiong, who had received the warning from the Zhang Banxian, hesitated. Hua Xiong was not afraid of death, but being unafraid of death did not mean that he wanted to die. But now that Lv Bu had run away, Hu Zhen had left and he had stayed behind, wouldn't that just be a waste of his life?

No matter how great a hero, they weren't prepared to die on the battlefield. They always wanted to kill their enemies and protect themselves. If he knew that he was going to die, especially for someone who had nothing to do with him, would he still be duty-bound to die?

At this moment, Hua Xiong was shaken, the Zhang Banxian's prophecy was like a nightmare wrapping itself around his heart. When he looked up, all he saw were the anxious, eager eyes of the men of the northern army, waiting for his orders, their lives at the mercy of his thoughts.

"Retreat!"

Waving his spear, Hua Xiong finally made a difficult decision. He seemed to understand that only the north was his birthplace, and only by going to the north could he get rid of his bad luck. He quickly pulled his horse reins, and led his soldiers to flee towards the north.

When the time came, the ink-like darkness was slowly fading away. The sky gradually became brighter, and the trees and houses could already be seen clearly. The morning rooster began his first caw, predicting the arrival of another morning. It was just that this morning was destined to be a morning of blood.

When Sun Jian personally led his army to West Cold Army, not only did he not encounter any resistance, he did not even see a single soldier. What he saw was an empty camp, where Lv Bu and his cavalry had already disappeared to. Sun Jian took a quick glance around and could not help but be dumbstruck and tongue-tied. He could not believe his own eyes, "This …"

"Lord General, this shouldn't be a trick of West Cold Army, right?" Sun Jian's nephew held the horse reins in place as his thick eyebrows deeply knitted together, "Could it be that Hu Zhen was deliberately playing tricks to lure us in, then surround us and destroy us in one go?"

"Do not worry about Lord General, this is definitely a dispute between the generals of West Cold, Lv Bu will take his leave first." Huang Gai's face revealed joy, and immediately urged Sun Jian: "Since it's the heavens helping Lord General, Hu Zhen has no more risks. We cannot lose it, if we lose, we will lose it again, the army will immediately attack, we will definitely destroy Hu Zhen and make a great contribution. "

Sun Jian was also slightly moved, he knew that this opportunity on the battlefield was fleeting. He immediately nodded heavily and decisively ordered: "Huang Gai will lead the cavalry to stall Hu Zhen's army, you must not let him escape. The other generals will follow me and charge into battle, breaking through the enemies' record. "

"Kill …"

With a furious roar, Huang Gai clenched his horse belly, and led the three thousand riders that he had to charge towards the chaotic Hu Zhen army. Following that, the morale of Sun Jian's army rose immediately. Raising their weapons high, they rushed towards Hu Zhen's middle camp like a tide.

The fleeing Hu Zhen army became even more chaotic after being attacked by the Huang Gai cavalry. Originally, Hu Zhen also had some riders under his command, whether it was the equipment or the number of people, they all far exceeded the number of riders under Sun Jian's command.

Those who did not manage to escape in time were the West Cold soldiers. Under the assault of Huang Gai's cavalry, they immediately fell into disarray. Fortunately the road was bumpy, so the West Cold foot soldiers used the cover of the hills to clash with the Huang Gai Cavalry Soldiers tenaciously.

When the West Cold soldiers realized that they had nowhere to run, they immediately went to set up a formation to protect themselves. They were all veterans of the battlefield, and had long familiarized themselves with the fighting methods of the cavalry during their long battle with the Qiang people. Hence, they were not unfamiliar with Huang Gai's cavalry.

When one reached such a state, the fighting qualities of the Xiliang soldier would be fully displayed. Those middle and lower ranking officers quickly gathered their soldiers and formed them into battle formation, taking on the mission to the back of the hall. They had the intent to die, so when they killed the enemy, they did not care about themselves at all.

More than ten thousand westering officer s who were unable to retreat in time were like pillars, standing in the middle of the Yang Mansion's battlefield, not only did they obstruct Huang Gai's cavalry, even Sun Jian's army had been slowed down, causing Sun Jian's army to slow down a lot in their pursuit.

The morning breeze of early spring blew over the hills where the men gathered, and the thick smell of blood filled the wilderness. The westering officer in despair fought with all their might, relying solely on their bravery to repel the attacks of Sun Jian's army time and time again.

Facing westering officer's desperate resistance, Sun Jian was enraged, he immediately ordered the cavalry back down, and personally led the army to attack. Sun Jian's individual strength was outstanding, he was the valiant in the army, and every time he defeated an enemy, he would personally take the initiative to attack, this was also Sun Jian's style of leading his troops.

The blade in his hand danced in the air, and one westering officer after another became vengeful spirits under his blade. Very quickly, Sun Jian opened up a path of blood, splitting the formation of the West Cold Army into two.

"Kill …"

The soldiers of Sun Jian's army roared, and began the bloody slaughter. At this time, Sun Jian's army had completely gained the upper hand. They surrounded the westering officer, whether it was spears or longsword s.

By the time the sun rose, the gathering of men had turned blood-red. None of the more than ten thousand westering officer s surrendered, they were all massacred by Sun Jian's army on top of the mountain peaks.
